"I heard that the gift you presented to Grandpa Huang is called a globe, right?"
Chen Kan became vigilant. Is this little fat guy going to steal the globe?
He was startled by the idea that suddenly appeared in his mind.
But then I thought about it, this little chubby guy was going to be the emperor in the future. If he stole the globe, it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.
Chen Kan didn't want the future Emperor Xuande to do something as stupid as abandoning Annan and the Old Port Xuanwei Division.
Besides, this little fat guy is in need of training, so he just takes this opportunity to punish him and avenge the sandbag attack three days ago. If Zhu Di can break his legs, that would be even better.
He looked at Zhu Zhanji's round head and suddenly thought about it.
Then his face fell and he sighed: "Yes, I thought Your Majesty would like it. After all, that globe is the only one in the world. Even I can't reproduce it again."
As soon as he said this, Chen Kan saw Zhu Zhanji's eyes light up and roll around.
Chen Kan continued to say calmly: "Your Majesty just took a casual look at it and left the globe in Fengtian Hall. I really don't know what kind of treasure I need to impress His Majesty."
Zhu Zhanji suddenly asked: "Well, Grandpa Huang doesn't like the gift you gave him, does he?"
The fish is hooked!
Chen Kan smiled secretly in his heart, but said with a serious face: "Your Majesty is rich all over the world, so it is understandable that he would look down on the small gift carefully prepared by me."
Little Fatty echoed: "That's true. My grandpa Huang has never seen any treasures. You might as well give them to me. I will definitely like them."
Chen Kan spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders and said, "But there is only one globe."
After complaining, Chen Kan asked: "Your Highness, where are the Queen and the Princess?"
"I'll ask Xiao Liuzi to take you to Kunning Palace where Grandma Huang lives. I have something else to do."
Zhu Zhanji waved to a young eunuch not far away and ordered: "Take the Prince Consort to Grandma Huang's place."
"Slave, you obey!"
Chen Kan asked: "Where are you going, Your Highness?"
"I'm just strolling around, don't worry about me, go quickly, don't keep Grandma Huang waiting."
Zhu Zhanji waved to Chen Kan and then jumped in the opposite direction to Chen Kan.
"Prince-in-law, please follow me."
The little Liuzi had heard of Chen Kan's name a long time ago and knew that he was a ruthless man, so he didn't dare to talk to him too much.
After saying that, he walked forward with his head down, regardless of whether Chen Kan followed or not.
Chen Kan looked at Little Fatty's back and couldn't help but reveal a hint of a scheming evil smile at the corner of his mouth.
Because he had already seen the direction in which Little Fatty left, and there was a rockery at the end.
Following Xiao Liuzi, Chen Kan walked to the front of a luxurious hall, with the three characters "Kunning Palace" written on the plaque.
"This is the Queen's palace. Prince Consort, our family will take you here."
"Okay, I'm done."
Chen Kan saluted him and thanked him sincerely. Xiao Liuzi was so frightened that he ran away in a hurry.
Chen Kan looked at the hall and could vaguely see the longing figures in the hall. Graceful figures were coming and going. He immediately lowered his head.
These are all Zhu Di's women, so you can't just look at them casually.
He lowered his head, tried not to look sideways, and said angrily to the two eunuchs guarding the entrance of the hall, "Can you please tell me that my consort Chen Kan is here to see me."
…
…
Behind a rockery not far from the moon gate of the harem, a chubby little boy poked his head and revealed half of his head.
After confirming that Chen Kan had gone far, he slowly started to count the time with his fingers.
"The emperor still has half a stick of incense left to give the ministers food. The ministers need half an hour to eat. Half an hour should be enough..."
He muttered a few words to himself, then came out from behind the rockery, swaggered out of the Moon Gate, and then sneaked towards Fengtian Palace.
When the Jinyi Captain and the palace officials who were guarding the imperial city saw Zhu Zhanji's sneaky appearance, they unconsciously showed smiles on their faces.
Mainly because His Royal Highness, the Emperor's eldest grandson, has sneaked out of the palace like this more than once or twice. Although he failed every time, he still persevered.
The palace people are also willing to play with him.
Zhu Zhanji, who was only five years old, naturally would not know all his whereabouts. In fact, they were all under the surveillance of the guards in the palace.
In his opinion, he was hiding so secretly that it was impossible for others to discover him.
Because every time he appears in the woods and grass, it is impossible for those stupid guards to see him.
If it weren't for the fact that there was no bunker in the square behind Hongwu Gate for him to cover his tracks, this small palace would not be able to trap him at all.
This time he had no intention of sneaking out of the palace, he was just going to Fengtian Palace, so it was even less likely that these stupid guards would find him.
As he expected, none of the stupid guards noticed him until he slipped into a dense landscape bush next to the side hall of Fengtian Palace.
A proud smile suddenly appeared on his face.
It seems that his ability to conceal his whereabouts has improved a lot~
He just stayed in the bushes silently, with two cunning big eyes peeking out from the gaps in the bushes, secretly looking at the two little eunuchs standing at the door of the side hall.
Like an ostrich hiding its ears and stealing its bell.
He counted in his mouth, and when he counted to one hundred, he saw his grandpa striding out of the side hall and heading straight for the Wubu Yamen.
He was very sure of the whereabouts of Grandpa Huang, because Grandpa Huang was considerate of his ministers and would eat with them every day.
And what he was waiting for was this opportunity.
Only at this time every day, there would be no one guarding the entrance to the side hall of Fengtian Palace. The two young eunuchs would go to wait for the emperor's grandfather to eat.
Seeing Zhu Di walking away, Xiao Pangdun suddenly ran from the bushes to the entrance of the side hall like a fat leopard. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he took off his short legs and ran into the main hall.
Not far away, Zhu Di, who was striding like a meteor, paused in his steps, with a helpless expression on his face.
"What is this little bastard going to do again?"
Zhu Di has always doted on Zhu Zhanji, his eldest grandson.
It can be said that his decision to rebel was largely due to his eldest grandson.
When he was still King of Yan, he had a dream that Zhu Yuanzhang gave him a big gui.
He also said: "The descendants of the descendants will be prosperous forever."
When he woke up from his dream, his servants came to tell him that his grandson was born.
Combined with what his father Zhu Yuanzhang said in the dream, he immediately patted his thigh and said: "Isn't this what dad meant? Since my grandson is a grandson passed down from generation to generation, what does Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen mean? He took it away." The villain of my grandson’s throne?
No, I must take back my grandson’s throne! "
So, he decided to raise an army to seize the throne.
But the naughty nature of his eldest grandson also gave him a headache.
Perhaps because he and the queen had spoiled him since he was a child, the eldest grandson has had a lawless temper since he was a child.
When he was in Peking, he often teased the teacher who taught him how to read. When he arrived in Nanjing, he wanted to sneak out of the palace to play every now and then.
Now that this little bastard has run into his hall again, he is afraid that the treasures in his hall will suffer again.
etc!
baby?
not good!
Zhu Di suddenly realized that this little bastard was probably coming for the globe.
Although he looked dismissive of the globe in front of Chen Kan, he actually took it very seriously.
After all, for a person like him who urgently needs achievements to prove his usurpation of the throne, what could be a more convincing achievement than conquering a large territory.
It’s unclear whether the globe is real or not, but what if it is real?
He quickly stopped, turned around and walked towards the main hall.
The globe must not let this little bastard cause trouble.
In the main hall, after searching furtively for a while, Little Fatty also found what he wanted in a drawer on the side.
"The golden-winged roc is carved in gold. There is a sphere on the roc's wings. This should be it, right?"
Zhu Zhanji held the gift box containing the golden-winged roc with a suspicious face and climbed onto Zhu Di's dragon chair. He stood on the dragon chair and placed the gift box on the table.
Then he took out the wooden ball and started looking at it.
"The Ming Dynasty, Ryukyu, Japan, Luzon..."
There were many place names engraved on the globe. When he saw that there was only such a small piece of Ming Dynasty, an expression of astonishment suddenly appeared on his round face.
Then he said angrily: "Well, Chen Kan, my Ming Dynasty is located in the Central Plains. It is a vast land with abundant resources. It is the center of the heaven and the earth, and it is the kingdom of the heaven. You actually carved such a big place on the globe. It is simply too deceiving!"
Zhu Zhanji was very curious. At first, he simply wanted to see what kind of treasure Chen Kan dedicated to Grandpa Huang.
As for why you have to look at it in such a sneaky way.
Then I have to mention a story called The Boy Who Cried Wolf.
A long time ago, Zhu Di was very generous to Zhu Zhanji. As long as he wanted something, Zhu Di would try his best to get it for him.
Even if it's something very important, I'll give it to him to play with, as long as it doesn't break.
But Zhu Zhanji can't stand it. Once the rare treasures from all over the country get into Zhu Zhanji's hands, they will disappear in a few days.
He loves the new and dislikes the old. He plays with many treasures, but when he finds something more interesting, he will throw it away.
This resulted in Zhu Di not daring to give him some important treasures to play with. No matter how big the emperor's family was, he couldn't stand his defeat, and he was not allowed to touch anything until now.
So if he wanted to see the globe, he had no choice but to sneak into the hall secretly.
Keeping the names engraved on the globe in mind, Zhu Zhanji planned to put the globe back on the wings of the golden-winged roc, and went to the harem to settle the score with Chen Kan.
But at this moment, Zhu Di left and returned. He saw Zhu Zhanji holding the globe and gritting his teeth, and quickly said: "Stop!"
"Um?"
The sudden sound frightened Xiao Pangdun's face. He shook his hand and the globe in his hand fell to the ground.
He didn't expect Grandpa Huang to come back, so he didn't care to pick it up. He turned around and jumped off the dragon chair to run away.
But his long sleeves brushed the table, and the box on the table was brushed off by his sleeves. The box containing the golden-winged roc's base hit the globe impartially.
"Click~"
There was a crisp cracking sound, and Zhu Di's expression suddenly changed, and he said angrily: "Catch him!"
