Chapter 388 Bonfire Banquet
There is no doubt that today’s martial arts display was a success, so Zhu Xianming was also particularly happy.
"Old Thirteen, you are not worthless."
Horse behind the driver, Zhu Jinghong smiled and replied, "Didn't Du Fu say that my talents will be useful?" A son is always useful."
It has to be said that the people around the emperor are all professionals, and they can hold back their laughter no matter how funny they are.
Only Zhu Xianming couldn't laugh at this moment, and there was a gloomy look on his face, obviously not satisfied with Zhu Jinghong.
"You've been busy during this period, don't forget to study hard." Zhu Xianming tried to make himself calmer.
This means that Zhu Jinghong has made a great contribution, otherwise he would have cursed him outright.
Just listen to Zhu Jinghong's answer: "My son has been reading. Recently he read the third Analects of Confucius and also read a funny story"
"What story"
< p>"There was a man named Zhuangzi and Huizi who went out to play and saw fish swimming in the water. One said the fish were very happy, and the other said"Hearing Zhu Jinghong's prestige here, Zhu Xianming only felt embarrassed He was so embarrassed that his expression became extremely ugly.
"Dad, do you think these two people are full?"
"Shut up" Zhu Xianming couldn't help scolding.
Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Zhu Jinghong quickly silenced himself and looked afraid.
"Stop telling me that you study. If word gets out, I will be embarrassed to death," Zhu Xianming scolded him coldly.
Zhu Jingyuan had just lamented that he was not as good as Zhu Jinghong. Seeing that he made the old man angry again, he said that Old Thirteen really had not made any progress.
It is true that Zhu Jinghong has not made any progress. He has always been reckless and reckless and talked nonsense. However, the things he has accomplished and the contributions he has made exist objectively.
Thinking of this, both Zhu Jingyuan and Xu Xinan were touched, and they became even more wary of Zhu Jinghong at this moment.
"Dad, my thirteenth brother is just not good at reading, but his eagerness to learn should still be encouraged." Zhu Jingyuan stepped forward to persuade him.
As the prince and eldest brother, Zhu Jingyuan has absolutely no problem doing this.
"That's nice to say. If you are really eager to learn, you will learn to behave like this"
"I think he is ignorant, I'm afraid he hasn't touched a book in the past six months."
However, after Zhu Xianming finished speaking, he heard Zhu Jinghong say, "Dad, you can't accuse your son wrongly. Last year, your son had to study all night for the exam. That day"
He glanced at Zhu Jinghong with a bad look. Zhu Jinghong, the emperor was furious and frightened Zhu Jinghong's words back.
Now that Zhu Jinghong has left the government, Zhu Xianming doesn’t care whether he studies or not, not to mention he feels he can’t control it at all.
So he didn’t want to discuss this topic at all.
The team entered the capital all the way. The three legitimate sons sent their father back to his palace, and then walked together outside Qianqing Palace.
“Thirteenth brother, you are reallyHe is so powerful. He is very good at training and fighting. He has the same style as his father."
These words were spoken by Zhu Jingyuan with deep feeling. They were also his test of Zhu Jinghong. He could not help but feel this way. The younger brother took action.
Zhu Jinghong will have the opportunity to gain access to military power, and the importance of military power is so powerful and critical.
Just listen to Zhu Jinghong’s reply, “Sixth brother, it’s not just about military training. In combat, my riding and shooting skills are unparalleled in the world, don't let it slip."
Zhu Jinghong's brain circuit was beyond Zhu Jingyuan's expectations, but the vigilance in his heart has not diminished.
In fact, Zhu Jinghong also knows that he is in danger at this moment. At least for now, if Zhu Jingyuan attacks him with all his strength, it will definitely cause him great trouble.
In the end, he still has a weak foundation. It has not been a year since May last year, and his arrangements have not yet taken root.
He needs time, at least one more war, and he needs to truly establish his prestige in the army. Only then could he confront Zhu Jingyuan head-on.
And he worked hard to reform the military system and tried his best to make the emperor expand the navy in order to increase his irreplaceability.
So at least for now, he has to continue to be patient and not let Zhu Jingyuan attack and disrupt his plan.
But if he can keep pretending, Zhu Jinghong will not take the initiative to reveal his cards. Wang Dao.
"I have something to do. I'll take my leave and see you in the evening." Zhu Jingyuan smiled.
The foreign chieftains were leaving, so the emperor naturally wanted to entertain them. This was planned in advance, and Yushanfang Monk Food Bureau had been preparing for it early in the morning.
"Brother Six, walk slowly"
After Zhu Jingyuan left, he remained silent. Zhu Jingyuan just said, "Thirteenth brother, the sixth brother is cunning and insidious. Don't get involved with him."
"No, I think the sixth brother is pretty good to me."
"You are so shallow that you were deceived by him." Zhu Jingyuan looked distressed.
While the two brothers were talking nonsense, Zhu Yunsheng also learned that there was a banquet in Xiyuan tonight. This made her unable to sit still.
At this moment, she was pestering the queen to go and see.
"Mom, I have done all my homework and taken the exam. I’ve taught you how to do it. I’m just looking at it from a distance. Isn’t that enough?”
“It’s just a look at it from a distance. I’m not attending a banquet. What’s the big deal?”
"Brother Thirteen is gone. Could it be that no one in this huge palace loves me anymore?"
After hearing the end, the queen was also very annoyed and couldn't help but said, "Tell your father about it." , just go if he asks you to go"
"Really" Zhu Yunsheng was overjoyed.
"Thank you very much, Queen Mother"
After thanking you, Zhu Yunsheng He immediately left the main hall, fearing that his mother would regret it now.
Zhu Yunsheng was confident about convincing the emperor.
Zhu Yunsheng was excited when he returned to the dormitory.The good news was announced, and both Daiyu and Xiangyun reacted strongly to it. They both liked to join in the fun.
As for Yang Jingting, she is now focused on choosing the princess, and other things are not attractive to her.
"You go ahead, I won't go," Yang Jingting said.
"Sister Qin, are you going?" Xiangyun asked proactively.
"I"
Zhen Qin actually doesn't want to go. She feels that life is gloomy now and has lost interest in all activities.
"Let's go, you've been depressed recently, it's a good idea to go out and relax."
Although Zhen Qin is a little stupid, but with her straightforward character, she still made friends with people like Xiang Yun. friend.
Remembering that she had been too decadent recently, Zhen Qin nodded slightly.
After this "heavy" blow, she has indeed matured a lot. At least she has learned to shut up instead of being as careless as before.
"How about calling Sister Bao too?" Daiyu suddenly said. She knew that Baochai lived in Shangyi Bureau.
"Of course" Zhu Yunsheng was the first to speak.
She just thinks that the more people there are, the more fun it will be, not to mention that they are old friends reunited after a long separation.
"Which of you is going to send a message to her?"
"I will go" Xiang Yun answered with a smile.
"I'll go with you," Daiyu also said.
Hearing this, Yang Jingting became uneasy. She had to be where Baochai appeared, otherwise she would always feel uneasy.
But she had refused just now, and she wanted to go now. Yang Jingting didn't know how to speak for a while.
"You all go, don't make any mistakes," Yang Jingting said.
Zhu Yunsheng didn't take it seriously and sat on the chair and said, "Sister Ting, what trouble can we make? It's just for fun."
"I always feel uneasy, forget it. It's better to follow and keep an eye on it," Yang Jingting said lightly.
By provoking the topic in this way and achieving the goal, I have to say that Yang Jingting has also matured.
Her words and deeds before and after were also seen by Daiyu, who couldn't help but worry about Baochai.
Zhu Yunsheng was right in his assumption. As soon as she resorted to coquettish tactics, Zhu Xianming easily agreed to her request.
The emperor is strict with his son, and he is doting on his daughter, but he only has this legitimate daughter.
As night gradually fell, a bonfire was already burning on the grass somewhere in Xiyuan.
Tonight’s banquet is hosted by people from the grassland. Zhu Xianming deliberately chose this form to express his affection for them.
This is not to please foreigners, but the tolerance that comes only with great strength.
The emperor has not yet arrived, but ministers from various states have arrived in advance and arranged to take their seats in Honglu Temple.
Tonight’s food is according to the standards of a state banquet, with just an additional roast leg of lamb.
"Father, the court is really thoughtful," Nuo Min said with emotion.By then she had changed into women's clothing.
In fact, she is not the only woman coming this time. These people also put on women's clothes tonight, just because the mission has been completed.
In a relaxing occasion like tonight, there is no need to be so serious.
"Yes" Su He responded.
Until now, he has not gotten over the shock of the morning. This cross-era military exercise has brought him a great impact.
He really couldn't imagine that if the Ming Dynasty's hundreds of thousands of troops were so powerful, who else in the world could compete with them.
And he knew that he was not the only one who had this idea, and that others were more affected than him.
For example, Tushetu Khan, who had been flirting with Junggar, had an ugly expression from the morning until now, while Zhasak Khan acted more relaxed.
On the other side, Zhu Yunsheng led several attendants, surrounded by a group of palace maids and eunuchs, and was leaving Kunning Palace for Qianqing Palace.
Zhu Yunsheng and Yang Jingting walked in front, followed by Zhen Qin and Xiang Yunzheng talking. Only Daiyu walked at the end holding Baochai.
The two of them really walked at the end, so that there was no one behind them.
"Sister Bao, if you really enter Prince Xiang's Mansion, I'm afraid it will be difficult."
If it weren't for our friendship, Daiyu would never have said these words. A terrible crime.
"Why?" Baochai smiled lightly.
Daiyu did not answer, but looked forward, and Baochai instantly understood what she meant.
"Don't worry about me. Whether we can choose a concubine or not is still unknown," Baochai said with a smile.
Before entering the palace, Daiyu also felt that the court selection was extremely fair, but what she had seen and heard in the past two months after entering the palace made her completely abandon her naive thoughts.
Behind Yang Jingting is the Queen’s niece; Baochai is favored by the Queen and is the cousin of the Crown Princess, and also has the support of Princess Rui
Daiyu really can’t imagine that other people How to compete with these two.
According to conventional thinking, Yang Jingting will definitely become the princess. If she is dissatisfied with Baochai and takes action to rectify her, life will be difficult for Baochai as the concubine.
"Sister Bao"
Seeing that Daiyu was really worried about herself, Baochai couldn't help but feel moved, so she stroked her slender hand and said, "Okay, you are so young and have so many thoughts." It’s too much.”
“I told you, don’t keep thinking, otherwise you won’t be able to get well”
Seeing that Baochai is really not worried, Daiyu can only hope that His Highness Prince Xiang will always be kind to her, so that he can protect Baochai when the princess gets into trouble.
Next Daiyu changed the topic and asked about Baochai's "further education", and the two started chatting in detail.
Soon they arrived at Qianqing Palace, but only Zhu Yunsheng was able to enter, and the others could only wait outside the palace gate.
Zhu Yunsheng’s two direct brothers arrived before her. The reason why they are two direct brothers is becauseZhu Jinghong hasn't come yet, so this guy must be routinely late.
Zhu Xianming was numb to this, but he was still very happy to see his daughter arriving, and even felt much better after reading the memorial.
As night fell, Zhu Jinghong finally arrived belatedly. Before leaving the palace, he discussed life with Ke Qing Yinglian, and he could be regarded as an ancient master of time management.
"Why are you here too?" Zhu Jinghong's eyes lit up when he saw Baochai and the others.
"Thirteenth Master, why are you here?" Xiangyun was also surprised. She originally thought Zhu Jinghong was in Qianqing Palace.
After getting closer, Zhu Jinghong asked Xiangyun, "I went out to do some errands. Are you waiting here to go to the dinner party?"
"That's right, this is the princess." Your Highness is asking for the grace.”
Walking among the women, Zhu Jinghong said with a smile, “That’s fine, if you stay in Kunning Palace all day, everyone will be stupid.”
Just as he was about to continue talking, Daiyu's voice came from the left, "Master Thirteen, you'd better go in quickly. I'm afraid you'll be punished again if you're late."
"Look, it's my fault." I treat you well on weekdays, but it is Lin Yatou who comes after me and cares more about me."
Daiyu smiled sweetly and replied, "Master Thirteen is wrong. I don't care about you, I'm just afraid that you will suffer." The Queen and the Princess were heartbroken.”
In the private residence of the inner court, Zhu Jinghong never put on airs and showed great respect to the girls.
Although Daiyu had only been in the palace for a short time, she also understood Zhu Jinghong's temperament. After getting familiar with it, she dared to joke with Zhu Jinghong.
"Is that true? Someone said this before, but now..." Zhu Jinghong looked at Baochai when he spoke, but did not continue.
Knowing what Zhu Jinghong meant, Baochai did not dare to look at Zhu Jinghong. When he glanced at Yang Jingting, he realized that this girl was also staring at Zhu Jinghong.
Listening to the confusion, Zhen Qin couldn’t help but ask, "Who said what and what happens now?"
Of course, Sister Bao also said that she will run for the princess now. Well, the Thirteenth Master also spoke openly, and Daiyu was dissatisfied with being teased.
At this moment, there was movement in the Qianqing Palace, but it was the emperor who was about to take off.
Zhu Jinghong didn't dare to delay any longer, so he ran towards the palace gate. It was foreseeable that he would be scolded again.
However, today, Zhu Xianming was in a really good mood. He just scolded her a few times and then continued talking to his daughter.
The emperor's imperial chariot left the Qianqing Palace, accompanied by a large number of guards and honor guards. Baochai and his party also followed the team.
It should be noted that the Emperor will also attend tonight's banquet, so the Emperor will go to Ningshou Palace first, pick up the Emperor and go to Xiyuan together.
It took almost half an hour to walk from the palace to the banquet place in Xiyuan.
Before the arrival of the two supreme beings, a group of senior civil and military officials from the imperial court had also arrived, including three cabinet ministers and officials from various ministries, as well as senior military generals from the Fifth Army Governor's Office.
When two people arriveWhen His Majesty arrived, everyone stood up and knelt to greet him, and a cry of long live erupted from the scene.
Looking at the emperor supporting the emperor, the former was filial and the latter was kind, everyone had to sigh with emotion at the royal family's paternal filial piety. It really comes down to the same line, and it can be said to be a model for the world.
Following the emperor and his brother, Zhu Jinghong looked left and right as he walked forward, and happened to meet the eyes of Nuo Min who boldly raised his head.
Nuo Min's appearance is better than her personality, and there is a bookish air in her eyes. If she puts on Chinese clothes and says she is a lady, some people will believe her.
In this bookish atmosphere, Nuo Min also had a wild streak, and her bold and appraising eyes really made Zhu Jinghong's eyes brighten.
In fact, when he was observing Nuomin, the latter was also looking at him carefully.
The observation that he is really that powerful and brave, and they are less than one foot apart at this moment, makes Nuomin still have such doubts.
Just as Nuomin's eyes were rolling, Su He on the side reminded him in a low voice, "Lower your head, don't risk your life."
Hearing his father's fear and worry, Nuomin was very honest. Lowered his head.
Spying on the emperor might end up losing his head, and Nuo Min knew the pros and cons very well.
Soon, Zhu Xianming helped his father onto the high platform and helped the Supreme Emperor sit on the throne. Then he turned around and said slowly, "Get down flat."
" Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone kowtowed again.
To show his benevolence and filial piety, Zhu Xianming's seat was set to the side to express his respect for his father.
After Zhu Xianming took his seat, the ministers sat down individually.
When everyone was looking forward to it, Zhu Xianming said calmly, "You will be leaving in the next two days. Today I specially hosted a banquet to see you off. You can have a good drink tonight."
