Chapter 305 Shocked Everyone! Jinling City Is in an Uproar!
Hongwu Gate.
The soldiers on duty watched the oxcart slowly enter in surprise, and then gathered around the captain.
"Captain, is His Highness a little different?"
"I feel it too! But I can't tell where it's different."
"His Highness's return to Nanjing and his initiative to return to the palace is the biggest difference. Your Majesty and the Queen must be very happy to hear the news."
...
Hey!
Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying's abnormal behavior was soon noticed by all the officials.
"What are your Majesty and the Queen looking at?"
"Waiting for someone?"
"Waiting for whom? Zhu Silang is not important anymore?"
...
Hu Weiyong listened to the officials' discussions and looked at the direction of the imperial study from afar...
The carriage was taken away, and Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying stood at the bottom of the steps and looked around, as if they were waiting for someone.
He couldn't help but frown and looked at Li Shanchang.
Li Shanchang shook his head slightly...
...
Squeak, squeak...
The gradually clear sound from far to near startled all the officials.
"Zhu Silang!"
Someone exclaimed, and all the officials looked in the direction of their colleagues' fingers...
An ox cart, a family of four, this scene seemed familiar, not unfamiliar, it happened before Zhu Silang accompanied the grandson to Liaodong.
Zhu Silang and his little boy are both bad guys!
That day, everyone was first urinated on by Zhu Yongming, and when they left the palace angrily, many people were tricked and stepped on cow dung...
Can't think about it, it's uncomfortable to think about it.
That day, Tu Jie, who suffered the most damage, is now in the imperial prison, waiting to be executed in the autumn of next year, and the Tu family has been confiscated.
And all the Tu family members were exiled to Liaodong.
A familiar scene happened again in reality.
Many people's faces changed again and again, and they moved back quietly, far away from both sides of the road.
'I don't believe it! Zhu Yongming can still go so far! '
All the officials were angry at the same time, and gathered in groups of three or five, whispering.
"Why did Zhu Silang return to the palace? Did His Majesty invite him?"
"Were you scared by Zhu Silang? If His Majesty invited you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, would you still need to leave the palace?"
"It must be Zhu Silang who took the initiative to enter the palace!"
"Hiss! This is the first time that Zhu Silang took the initiative to enter the palace after the ninth year of Hongwu. What happened?!"
...
After all the officials came to the conclusion that 'Zhu Di took the initiative to return to the palace', they were all shocked.
A group of old foxes all felt vaguely that something seemed to have changed!
...
The ox cart slowly approached.
Xu Miaoyun saw that all the officials avoided the road from a distance, and tried to hold back her laughter. She lowered her head and looked at the two big eyes of the little Yongming in her arms. She observed curiously and whispered with a faint smile: "What are you looking at? Thinking about the good things you did last time when you cooperated with your father? This is your black history..."
Zhu Di listened and couldn't help laughing...
Fortunately, in this time and space, the little guy will follow him and Miaoyun to leave the Central Plains.
He doesn't have to be a prince or an emperor.
Otherwise, when he becomes prominent, someone will definitely bring up this black history.
Ha!
‘I’m such a good father! ’
Zhu Di smiled and turned around, stretched out his hand, “Give me the little guy…”
Xu Miaoyun knew what Zhu Di was going to do at the first time, and smiled and glared, “You’re such a good father!”
But he still handed over little Yongming.
He added secretly, ‘Yongming, don’t blame mother, our father is the boss. ’
Little Yongming:…
‘Come back! ’
The officials saw Zhu Di take little Yongming from Xu Miaoyun’s arms, and their eyes twitched fiercely. Even though they were far enough away from the road, they subconsciously stepped back a few steps.
Zhu Di held little Yongming, drove the ox cart, smiled and nodded, and passed by the officials leisurely…
Huh!
The officials watched the ox cart approach and then slowly move away, subconsciously relieved, and they all complained in their hearts, ‘This father and son finally acted like human beings…’
Then, they gathered together again in groups of three or five, and whispered while leaving the palace.
"I always feel that Zhu Silang seems a little different."
"Hey! You have this feeling too? I do too!"
"I have it too, but what's the difference?"
...
Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang also noticed that Zhu Di was a little different from before, and listened to the officials' discussion silently, while secretly thinking about it.
...
"Asshole!"
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and cursed.
It's so funny.
A group of old foxes were frightened by the cooperation of the father and son, the asshole Lao Si and Yong Ming.
"He doesn't consider Gao Chi's future at all..."
The asshole Lao Si didn't agree with his way of being a father.
How good is he?
He wants to see how the asshole Lao Si and Gao Chi get along in the future.
Gao Chi had better do better.
Learn from the asshole Lao Si, let the asshole Lao Si also experience his discomfort!
Hum!
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but hum.
Ma Xiuying glanced at them and smiled unhappily.
The father and son are a pair of live treasures.
The ox cart approached quickly.
Zhu Yuanzhang took Xiao Yongming from Zhu Di's arms and deliberately said with a dark face, "You came back on your own initiative, it's really rare..."
In fact, he wanted to say: Why did you come back?
But he was afraid that he would say it too much, and this bastard would go back to Nanjing next time instead of the palace.
"Isn't this what father wants?" Zhu Di smiled and took out Xiongying's letter, "Mother, I originally planned to bring Xiongying back, but Xiongying took the initiative to stay in the village. This is the letter he wrote to you..."
When Zhu Di and Ma Xiuying were talking, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed with surprise, 'Did the bastard guess it? '
He didn't have time to think about it.
When Ma Xiuying unfolded the letter, he leaned over...
After reading it, he turned around and told Jiang 𤩽: "Go, deliver this letter to the East Palace."
Then he glared at Zhu Di, "Don't stand there, your mother thought you were going to your Taishan family again, and she urged you to leave the palace before it got dark. When she heard that you entered the palace, she hurriedly ordered Mingxia to watch in the imperial kitchen and prepare your favorite dishes..."
Ma Xiuying glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang with a smile in her eyes.
Is she anxious?
She obviously cares about you, but she is stubborn and doesn't say it.
Maybe, every father is like this.
"My mother is still the best." Zhu Di cooperated very well.
This is a bit hurtful.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to talk anymore, his face was slightly dark, and he looked down at the little Yongming in his arms, "Gao Chi, let's go!"
After saying that, he angrily went to Kunning Palace first.
Ma Xiuying was not happy, and smiled and glared at Zhu Di.
Neither of them, father and son, is worry-free.
…
Jiang𤩽 here.
He hurried to the East Palace.
His brows were knitted.
“Zhu Silang has changed!”
The Zhu Silang I just saw was different from the previous two years.
But he couldn’t figure out what was different.
He came to the Crown Princess’s Palace with a heavy heart. After being informed, he walked into the palace under the guidance of the palace maids…
When Jiang𤩽 saw Zhu Biao and Chang, he bowed his head and said with both hands: “Prince, Zhu Jieyuan has returned to the palace and brought back a letter from the grandson to the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess. I have been ordered …”
Chang’s eyes lit up when she heard this, and she was eager to read the contents of the letter.
She looked at Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao smiled, took the letter, and handed it to Chang first.
Then he said to Jiang𤩽: “Thank you, Mr. Jiang.”
“It is my honor to work for the Crown Prince!” Jiang𤩽 replied excitedly.
Zhu Biao exchanged a few pleasantries with Jiang Yu, and then sent Jiang Yu away.
Turning his head, he saw that Chang's eyes were slightly red, full of relief, and asked with a smile: "What did Xiongying say in the letter?"
"Xiongying expressed his longing for the prince and the concubine in the letter..."
...
As all the officials left the court and left the palace, and Jiang Yu came to the East Palace to deliver the letter.
The news that Zhu Di took the initiative to return to the palace spread.
The prince's concubine's bedroom.
Lu held Zhu Yunwen and looked at the personal maid in surprise, "Are you sure? Zhu Silang took the initiative to return to the palace, not the order of the emperor?"
"My queen, it's true!"
'The prince will not come to my place tonight.
Lu held Zhu Yunwen and walked silently.
She thought.
At this time today, Xiongying didn't come back. After the prince comforted the princess, he missed Xiongying and came to her place to see Yunwen.
Putting her thoughts on Xiongying on Yunwen.
So she brought Yunwen with her.
That's fine.
If the prince doesn't come, then don't come.
Zhu Silang took the initiative to return to the palace!
It's a bit unusual.
Is it to send a letter?
Or a change of attitude?
'No, I have to write a letter to tell my father about this! '
She had a strong premonition without any basis.
She always felt that this matter would have a great impact on the future.
...
Beauty Palace.
Concubine Wang was practicing splits and leg stretches. After listening to the report from the little maid, she looked up and asked curiously: "Isn't it normal for the Prince of Yan to return to the palace? Why are you making a fuss? Do you like the Goryeo delicacies I made for the Crown Princess?"
Since the Crown Prince returned to the East Palace at noon.
After it was reported that Xiongying would not come back with him.
She knew that the Crown Princess must miss Xiongying.
She might even have no appetite.
The Crown Princess is still pregnant.
So she made some Korean delicacies for the Crown Princess herself, which were not available in the Ming Dynasty.
She made them near dusk and asked her personal maid to deliver them.
She wanted to survive in the Ming Dynasty and live a good life.
She not only wanted to make the Crown Prince happy, but also to have her in his heart.
She also had to maintain a good relationship with the Crown Princess.
Her mother said.
A woman must first know herself.
Never think about things that do not belong to you, and never provoke women who can never be provoked because of jealousy.
There is no doubt that the Crown Princess in the East Palace is someone she can never provoke.
Even if the Crown Prince loves her, this fact cannot be changed.
Before, there was no other opportunity except to pay respects every day. This time, she finally had a chance.
Regardless of whether the Crown Princess sister looked down on Korean delicacies, she made them herself and delivered them, and the palace maids who tasted the dishes ate them and found nothing wrong.
She would let the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess understand her intentions.
And she can be trusted.
With trust and goodwill, the Crown Princess was willing to get close to her and protect her in the future.
As long as she could be loved by the Crown Prince, recognized and protected by the Crown Princess.
When the Crown Prince inherited the throne and ascended the throne, she would be the imperial concubine of the Celestial Empire, and her lifelong honor would be established!
The little maid Lu Ping curiously watched Concubine Wang practicing the splits, and replied at the same time: "Madam Selector, you don't know that His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan, after the ninth year of Hongwu..."
...
"When I was in the palace, I heard from the maid that His Majesty later hoped that the Prince of Yan would take the initiative to return to the palace after returning to Jinling, but the Prince of Yan just hid and didn't go back..."
...
Concubine Wang listened carefully and gradually frowned.
She understood.
At the beginning.
My father expelled Zhu Silang from the family tree, and Zhu Silang was not qualified to return to the palace.
Later, my father liked Zhu Silang more and more. Zhu Silang might be angry or for other reasons, but he didn't return to the palace.
Every time he returned to the palace, his father would find excuses to give orders.
this time……
‘Is it simply coming back to deliver a message, or does it mean that Zhu Silang is not angry and is willing to accept his father’s love? ’
This Zhu Silang.
Why can't you understand something!
He is so outstanding that he almost overtakes the Crown Prince in the limelight.
The prince was so kind to him.
Can't you be more low-key?
…
Hu Mansion.
after dinner.
Hu Weiyong invited Li Shanchang to come to the study.
Take a seat and wait for the maid to leave after serving tea.
Hu Weiyong looked at Li Shanchang, frowned and asked: "Teacher, is Zhu Silang entering the palace this time to explain the reason why his grandson does not come back, or is Zhu Silang willing to accept Emperor Zhu's paternal love?"
He thinks it's the latter.
Only in this way can we explain the inexplicable change that Zhu Silang gave people.
"It should be the latter!" Li Shanchang frowned, "But I can't figure out why Zhu Silang is like this..."
Ambitious?
Moved by Emperor Zhu’s fatherly love?
…
Li Shanchang is also struggling with the motives behind Zhu Di's changes.
Hu Weiyong smiled, "Teacher, I may not be able to see the motivation behind Zhu Silang's change for a while, but his change is a good thing for us."
Li Shanchang smiled slightly.
A good thing indeed.
The more Zhu Silang was favored by Emperor Zhu, the better he performed.
The pressure on the prince will inevitably increase.
It’s more conducive to their promotion!
He collected his thoughts and asked with a smile: "How are you preparing?"
"We are ready. Next, the people of Jinling City will slowly find out about Zhu Silang's past, and gradually know that Zhu Silang is Zhu Di!"
Directly announcing to the outside world that Zhu Silang is Zhu Di would make too much noise.
It is very easy to be noticed by Jin Yiwei.
At present, the whole Jinling is discussing Chunwei and Zhu Silang.
It is reasonable and reasonable to take the opportunity to promote the people of Jinling to discuss tracing Zhu Silang's identity.
The people he arranges will continue to release some news.
While maintaining the enthusiasm of people's discussion about Zhu Silang, Zhu Silang's identity is revealed bit by bit.
Eventually, it was revealed that Zhu Silang was the King of Yan, Zhu Di.
In this way, the whole thing would be consistent with the development of things, which could greatly alleviate Emperor Zhu's suspicion.
What's more, if Zhu Silang passes the Jinshi examination.
I'm afraid Emperor Zhu himself wants to show off, right?
…
In short, he has arranged everything!
Li Shanchang heard Hu Weiyong's entire plan and nodded with satisfaction.
This student, except sometimes, is too easy to raise his tail, and his ability to do things is really hard to say.
…
Kunning Palace.
The night is already very deep.
Zhu Yuanzhang held Xiao Yongming in his arms, and he and Ma Xiuying sent Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun off.
He said with a dark face: "It's already so late. When I go back to your Taishan Mansion, I still have to disturb them. The palace is so big and there's no way it can accommodate your family of four!"
Ma Xiuying stared and shook her head helplessly.
Obviously he just wanted the fourth child to stay.
But it was a father's love, but when it came out of Chongba's mouth, it sounded particularly unpleasant!
Still thinking about it, wanting the fourth child to wash his feet?
Wait!
Zhu Di shook his head and said, "Your Majesty allows me and my family to have meals in the palace. It is already a gift from heaven. If you stay here shamelessly, I will be frightened. I will be frightened and I won't be able to be stubborn anymore. I will treat you like my own son. I am a family. It's nothing." In case of disturbing you, Qi Chen has already asked Taishan to leave a door for Chen and his family..."
Zhu Yuanzhang clenched his molars.
Damn Fourth Brother, every word...
No!
Every word was like a knife, stabbing into his heart!
Tiande became a bastard father?
Then who is he?
Xu Miaoyun lowered her head and tried her best to hold back laughter.
Ma Xiuying was so angry at the father and son that she couldn't laugh or cry. She glared at them angrily and handed Xiao Qihua to Xu Miaoyun, "It's getting late. You guys have been working hard all day, so go back and rest."
Zhu Yuanzhang stared, with a dark face, and handed Yong Ming to Zhu Di.
Seeing the young couple driving the bullock cart and taking the two little guys with them, disappearing into the night, they said angrily: "This is the good son you gave us!"
After saying that, he turned around and turned back angrily.
Ma Xiuying caught up with a smile, "It's much better now. I didn't say, this is my son, not your son."
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed angrily.
Ma Xiuying glanced at her and asked: "The fourth child is suddenly willing to return to the palace, and he also said that this is what you want. What kind of drama are you, a father and son, doing?"
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but laugh.
I sighed secretly in my heart.
Damn fourth brother, he's really good.
See, even Xiuying didn't see his intention.
But the bastard fourth saw it!
It is normal for such an excellent son to give him a headache.
"Do you think that we forced the fourth child to continuously sprint for the imperial examination just to show off? Just to crush the officials' self-righteous superiority?"
Zhu Yuanzhang put his hands behind his back and said while walking, "Since we determined that the fourth child in our family has no ambition, we feel that the fourth child is the best whetstone for Biao'er..."
Ma Xiuying's expression suddenly changed, "Zhu Chongba, are you just pretending to be nice to the fourth child? You are just using it as a whetstone for Biao'er!"
This bastard man!
Do you know what you are doing!
Even if the fourth child doesn't mind, it makes him feel uncomfortable because his parents are so unfair.
Over time and over time.
Will be completely disappointed with them.
"If it weren't for the sake of filial piety, the young couple would have left early. Zhu Chongba, you...you..."
Zhu Yuanzhang said helplessly: "Can you please listen to what I have to say? The conscience of heaven and earth, this time we are really a bowl of water..."
So many children.
For the first time, he treated them equally.
Considering Biao'er and Lao Si as well!
…
The two talked as they walked.
Back in the bedroom, Zhu Yuanzhang concluded: "If Biao'er and Lao Si don't get along well and can't tolerate Lao Si, we will let Lao Si leave, prepare a family foundation for him, and let him develop outside. With his ability, as long as he wants, he can conquer another Ming Dynasty with 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses..."
Biao'er is enough to govern the Ming Dynasty.
But if he wants to conquer another country, it may be a bit stretched.
But Lao Si has the ability.
Ma Xiuying was silent.
This time, Chongba really treated them equally.
Among so many princes and princesses, except Lao Si, other children can't get this treatment from Chongba.
…
The third day.
The Spring Examination began.
"Dad... Dad..."
When Zhu Di was about to line up to enter the tribute courtyard, he just turned around and took a few steps, and there was a vague shout behind him.
Turning around...
The two little guys in Xu Miaoyun's arms were shouting "Daddy", stretching their hands towards Zhu Di, struggling.
Xu Miaoyun watched with a smile.
Finally, it was the Spring Examination.
The two little guys could shout "Daddy" and send Silang to the examination with her.
She could remember this warm and happy scene for the rest of her life.
Zhu Di strode back, teasing the two little guys, and said with a smile: "Listen to your mother's words, Daddy will give you a top scorer in the examination!"
Xu Miaoyun smiled and said: "Go quickly."
Zhu Di looked around and saw that no one was looking at them. He stretched out his hand and pinched Xu Miaoyun's cheek, then walked away quickly.
Xu Miaoyun's face flushed instantly with fear. After making sure that no one noticed, she looked at Zhu Di's back and smiled and scolded.
...
The four-day Spring Examination for Jinshi officially began.
In Jinling City, the discussion about Zhu Silang also changed accordingly.
"Who knows Zhu Jieyuan's hometown and family?"
"I know. It is said that Zhu Jieyuan is also from Yingtian, Jiangning County."
"Do you know grilled fish?"
"How can you not know? There is a grilled fish restaurant in Jinling City. What's wrong with it? Is it related to Zhu Jieyuan?"
"I was lucky enough to eat grilled fish grilled by Zhu Jieyuan himself by the Qinhuai River."
"Brother Liu, please tell me quickly, in detail!"
...
In the close planning of those who are interested.
Things about Zhu Silang began to be "unearthed" little by little.
It was extremely quiet in the Imperial Examination Hall.
Jinling City, however, continued to dig deeper and began to boil with the information about Zhu Silang.
Publish first and modify later
This chapter is a big chapter.
Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, I was really busy. I had to run outside every day to give gifts to many people. I couldn't find time to slack off during the day.
I don't know if the boss found me slacking off. This chapter was written in the hotel and I am not in the city today.
There is another chapter with 5,000 words!
I'm waiting to ask for monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, follow-up subscriptions, and full subscriptions.
