This fan page by Zhu Su was written when he had nothing to do in Changli County, imagining the days when he returned to Yingtian to take care of his errands and was free from anything, listening to music and doing nothing. It is said that after the Hu Weiyong case, the Fule Courtyard in Qinhuai River, for some unspeakable reasons, had many famous prostitutes of unknown origins but excellent in sex and skills.

When the time comes, wouldn't it be nice to save a few lost girls and enjoy Caijie again?

If someone wants to compete with him and be jealous, he will show his folding fan at that time, and his identity as the prince of the old Zhu family will be revealed, and he will pretend to be Da Boyi in front of the beauty and the public. Only then will he be able to travel to the Ming Dynasty in vain.

These four words must be very stylish when used in a brothel to compete for power. Zhu Su also took it out on a whim. Sure enough, it was even more lethal when he took it out at this time. When Guo Xing saw the huge four words "use power to bully others" on the fan, his face suddenly changed. It's dark.

What's the meaning? This Fifth Highness, does he want to slap me in the face?

"What do you mean by this, Your Highness?" Guo Xing was a general who was leading the army after all. He no longer professed his vassalship, but looked like he wanted to get to the bottom of it. "I am also worried about the safety of my two highnesses. Why, could it be that His Highness the Fifth wants to use the prince's name to seize the military power from my hands?"

"The 'Governor-General' of the Marquis of Gongchang has arrived at the head of my king's bodyguard, and I also 'tour' the military power of the Marquis. Isn't this too much?" Zhu Su also refused to give in at all.

In the final analysis, the scope of Guo Xing's "Governor-General Ji Zhen's military power" was actually only among the several thousand households in Ji Town. Rather than all Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers within the scope of Ji Town. In the same way, Zhu Su's duty of "patrolling the border" on behalf of the crown prince was actually just to patrol Su Song for floods.

But since he, Guo Xing, wants to play word games and seize military power to seize the victory, then don't blame him for repaying the other party with his own methods. Anyway, it’s all a word game, no one is clean, let alone our eldest brother, the second brother.

Unexpectedly, before he could calculate the other party's military power, the other party was already eyeing his own. Guo Xing's face turned even darker, and he spoke in a flash of thought: "Does His Highness the Fifth Prince want to take command himself? Forgive me for speaking frankly, although we have discovered Naha's treacherous plan, the main force of the Yuan army has not been damaged..."

"It was 'I' who saw through Naha's evil plan. The Marquis was trapped in the formation just now, what does it have to do with the Marquis?" Zhu Su opened Guo Xing's scars mercilessly. Guo Xing's face turned pale, and he heard Zhu Su continue: "This battle is detailed. I have written a letter and sent Jin Yiti to ride into the capital to face Father Chen."

"Mr. Guo was under heavy siege and refused to give in. He personally led his troops to fight, bleeding through his heavy armor, and gouging out his arrows. Such a serious injury, if anything happens, is really a loss for our Ming Dynasty."

"Since he has been seriously injured, he must be unable to lead the army. At this time, peace of mind and self-cultivation are the top priority. What do you think, Lord Marquis?"

Guo Xing had a look of astonishment on his face. He was always protected by tens of thousands of troops. Even when he rushed out at the last moment, he was followed by thousands of personal guards. What kind of blood was shed? What arrow hit you?

When I thought I was dead, I was sweating profusely.

Seeing the profound look in the eyes of the Fifth Highness in front of him, Guo Xing suddenly reacted: This Fifth Highness was clearly warning him, warning that he was accompanied by Jinyi Tiqi and was always in contact with the capital.

If he had sense, he would have covered up his mistakes and said that although he was surrounded by heavy siege, he still fought bloody battles.

But if he has evil intentions, he will report the facts to His Majesty, and maybe add fuel to the fire and exaggerate...

Seeing the folding fan with the words "Bullying others by force" on it, Guo Xing had no doubt that this unconventional His Highness would ignore the so-called etiquette and respectability of the Tian family and retaliate against him in the court. Extremely...

"...I know what His Highness the Fifth Highness said." Guo Xing's expression changed. After weighing it again and again, he still said unwillingly: "If the commander is changed before the battle, the morale of the sergeants will collapse. If they are defeated by Naha in the end, , I'm afraid that His Highness the Fifth Prince will be fully responsible..."

"Can the morale of the Ji Town soldiers under your command be even lower?" Zhu Su said. "Besides, so what if I take full responsibility."

"Don't forget that my surname is Zhu."

Guo Xing was shocked. Indeed, his surname was Zhu. Even if he is defeated by Naha and his entire army is annihilated, His Majesty Long Yan is furious, the board will only be raised high and gently lowered. If he reaches the sky, he will be sent to his hometown Fengyang and locked up for a few years.

What else? How about killing the nine tribes?

Seeing the Fifth Prince waving his fan with an irritating look, Guo Xing did not think that this prince would care about being imprisoned in Fengyang for a few years. Although the palace in Fengyang, the central capital, has not been completed, it is much more grand than the emperor's palace at the foot of Bifeng Mountain. Assigned to Fengyang? Is this a punishment or a blessing?

"...Hmph. In that case, I will accompany you!" The last threats were in vain, Guo Xing's face was as dark as ink, and he was feeling aggrieved. He bowed his hands perfunctorily, glanced at Zhang Dingbian again, and then took a few of his close associates to the camp to "recuperate". The Jizhen soldiers outside the company camp no longer paid attention to them.

This attitude is already considered giving in.

"Huh." Seeing that he was gone, Zhu Su breathed out. It is impossible to say that you are not nervous when facing a tit-for-tat confrontation with a powerful general. He acted with a wild and provocative look, just to show that he had "no scruples", and used both soft and hard tactics to force Gong Changhou, who had just made a big mistake, to retreat voluntarily.

This move is also risky. After all, Guo Xing's men are more numerous and powerful. If he desperately orders his sergeants to break into the camp and seize power, he can't let the Ming army kill each other, can he?

Fortunately, Guo Xing had many concerns and finally chose to give in as Zhu Su wished.

"Hahaha, His Highness the Fifth Prince actually defends a certain family in this way. The certain family is really grateful." Zhang Dingbian, who had been watching with cold eyes and said nothing, then walked up with a loud laugh. Judging from his expression, he didn't take Guo Xing's provocation seriously just now. Perhaps in his opinion, the powerful Marquis Gongchang was just a mediocre general?

Zhu Su hurriedly waved his hand and said no, after all, he was not just trying to protect Zhang Dingbian. Zhang Dingbian smiled when he heard this, and then said with a solemn expression: "But what that guy said just now makes sense. Changing commanders on the spot is not something a wise person would do. Your Highness has taken away his military power. Once those Yuan troops come back, the army will be unstable and may be difficult to defend."

Knowing that Zhang Dingbian was warning him, a junior, Zhu Su also smiled gratefully: "What Zhang Dingbian said is true. But Guo Xing has other ideas in his heart and is passive in the challenge."

"Previously, this person chose to gather his soldiers and restrain them from a distance. To say that he was restrained from a distance was actually to put the people under the iron heel of Naha and let them ravage him, while he stood by and watched in an attempt to gain a foothold. 'invincible position."

"Although it is risky to seize his military power at this time, at least I will have enough troops in my hands to restrain Naha, making him unable to send out troops to plunder."

"I have always believed that if a country's army cannot protect the people and have a pure land, it cannot become the Great Wall of the people. Such a corpse is no different from rotten wood and rotten grass."

"If the army of a country cannot protect the people and create a pure land, it cannot become the Great Wall of the people..." As soon as these words came out, Zhang Dingbian was also shocked. Then the entire sleeve of the robe bowed to Zhu Su with clasped hands and said: "Your Highness, the Fifth Prince, has a compassionate heart! He should be worshiped by a certain family."

"The layman's words are serious." Zhu Su quickly waved his hand. "This king is just picking up the wisdom of the elders in the family."

This point of protecting the people resonated with him when he had secret talks with Lao Zhu in the palace in the past. This is also what Zhu Su admires most about Lao Zhu and is willing to contribute to this Ming Dynasty.

Although, Lao Zhu may have started out to maintain the rule of the Zhu family. But in this era, Zhu Su still finds it extremely rare to have an emperor with such ideas.

"..." Behind Zhu Su, Zhu Di also looked thoughtful.
