Chapter 404: Brothers in Disgrace
As for Shanglinyuan, Zhu Jinghong has returned from the fields and is sitting in the yard having lunch.
After these few days of adaptation, Zhu Jinghong has completely integrated into this place and accepted the arrangements given to him by fate.
In addition to accepting his fate, his mentality also changed.
I have made a lot of great achievements in the past, but I am not sure how effective it will be by covering it up through self-defilation and other means.
Through the "rebellious selection of concubines", he really didn't dare to vouch for whether the sixth and fourth sons would doubt him again. With this position now, he felt stable.
It is impossible for a person who is almost imprisoned and almost deposed to have any ideas about a big position.
Then I can boldly organize and train the new army, make great strides in developing the navy, and start wars to disrupt the situation. Only in this way will I have more opportunities to exert myself.
Normally speaking, it is impossible for Zhu Jinghong to borrow the throne. A stable and developing court does not need a military monarch.
Instigating the emperor to go to war to grab money, he was completely unqualified to create conditions for himself, and turned the peaceful and prosperous times into wars.
Only when the war continues, can Zhu Jinghong be useful and continue to be trusted by the emperor.
Of course, although the truth has been figured out, Zhu Jinghong will not stop complaining every day. This is also a necessary means to maintain his character.
"Your Majesty, let's eat vegetables."
While Zhu Jinghong was thinking, Baochai had already put vegetables into his bowl, for fear that he would eat less.
In the three days he stayed in Shanglinyuan, Zhu Jinghong worked from dawn to dusk, and now he has only cleared two acres of land and sown the seeds.
But even if all the seeds are planted, the subsequent tasks of weeding and pest control are still extremely grueling chores.
"You can eat it too," Zhu Jinghong said with a smile.
"Baochai, you did a good job with this dish today, just a little more salt."
"I know, eat it quickly." Baochai gave it to Zhu Jinghong again Picked up the vegetables.
While the two were eating and drinking, more than a dozen eunuchs appeared, accompanied by two large carts.
Three feet away from their hut, these people stopped and got busy, and in ten minutes they built the frame of the house.
At this moment, Zhu Jinghong had finished eating and had his own treasure hairpin to pack the dishes, chopsticks and other items, while he strolled towards a group of eunuchs.
Even though he was wearing a short shirt at the moment, when he approached, all the eunuchs stopped and stood in line to salute him.
"Slave to see the prince"
As he walked closer with his hands behind his back, Zhu Jinghong asked, "What's going on?"
The leading old eunuch replied, "Reply The prince, servants, etc. came to build a residence for the Fourteenth Master and the Fifteenth Master according to the Lord's order."
"They are coming too." Zhu Jinghong was surprised.
"Exactly"
"What a big mistake he made"
"The slave doesn't know"
Nodding, Zhu Jinghong said, "Then you should be busy."
After saying this, Zhu Jinghong returned to the house. At this moment, Baochai had almost finished washing the dishes.
"There is no water in the prince's tank, and the firewood is almost gone," Baochai reminded.
"Got it"
After agreeing, Zhu Jinghong first carried water to fill the water tank, and then took an ax to chop wood and arrange it.
After he finished his work, he planned to take a nap before going to work in the fields.
Half an hour later, Zhu Jinghong packed up the chopped firewood and went into the house to sleep.
As for Baochai, after washing the dishes and chopsticks, she started to tidy up the house.
Although the place is not big, if the things are not put away and the hygiene is not cleaned, it will end up in a mess.
Although it is a hut, it is also a home, and Baochai cannot bear the clutter here.
She was packing up here. Zhu Jingchun and the others were brought here by Cheng Ying. Baochai saw them and immediately entered the house.
"Hey"
Being pushed awake by Baochai, Zhu Jinghong turned over, closed his eyes and asked "What's the matter"
"Fifteenth brother, fourteenth brother" My brother is here."
"I know, let them rest first, and I will ask them to work in the fields later."
Hearing Zhu Jinghong say this, Baochai couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.
"I can't go out and have a look"
"It's not like I don't know him, let's see what he does"
Baochai said this when she saw him. Helpless, the palace maid who taught cooking arrived at this moment, so Baochai went to the kitchen again.
This is already the fifth day. In another five days, the old palace maid will not come again, leaving little time for Baochai to study.
Wash and cook, light a fire and boil water, and clean the house
Although these are basic operations for ordinary people, Baochai still needs to learn them carefully.
As for Zhu Jingchun, when they arrived at their new house, they almost thought Cheng Ying was joking with him.
"We live here" Zhu Jingchun asked with a smile.
"Exactly" Cheng Ying replied.
"Your Highnesses live here. In the next ten days, someone will teach you how to wash and cook. After that, you two have to be responsible for eating, drinking and defecating on your own."
"It's not just you, The same goes for His Royal Highness King Xiang, he lives there now." Cheng Ying pointed to the hut not far away.
"Besides, today's lunch has passed, so your two highnesses will just eat this to satisfy their hunger for the time being."
As soon as Cheng Ying finished speaking, a young eunuch came forward with a food box. , placed on the small table under the eaves of the thatched house.
"Your Highnesses, if there is nothing else, I will resign."
At this time, Zhu Jinghao stepped forward and said, "Eunuch Cheng, why don't you ask for a favor for us? Just say that we are willing to go back and study hard and never cause trouble to our father again."
"The old slave will tell you, Your Highness, but you two must stay here first"
" p>
"Farewell" Cheng Ying no longer wants to stay here any longer.
After Cheng Ying left, Zhu Jingchun and his wife felt aggrieved, but their growling stomachs woke them up.
"Brother Fourteen, let's eat first." Zhu Jinghao walked towards the table.
However, when he opened the food box, he saw that there were only four steamed buns inside, which happened to be two for each of them.
"What's wrong? Eat it?" Zhu Jingchun was a little surprised, but when he got closer, he was stunned.
"Just this for lunch" Zhu Jingchun was so angry that he yelled.
"This old eunuch, how have we ever offended him? How dare he bully us like this?"
"Brother Fourteen, what shall we eat?" Zhu Jinghao raised the key question.
At this moment, he missed the lunch dishes very much and regretted that he talked too much and didn't take a bite.
"Who eats this?"
After saying this, Zhu Jingchun looked at the hut on the side, and then said with a smile, "How about we go to Brother Thirteen's place to see where he is?" Maybe there is something to eat."
Zhu Jinghao nodded quickly, "This is because Brother Thirteen always has good things."
So the two of them walked to the hut where Zhu Jinghong was, and within a few steps they were there. When we arrived at the door of the courtyard, the door was opened directly.
"Thirteenth Brother" Zhu Jingchun called out.
Obviously Zhu Jinghong's power is still there, even in this fenced yard, they don't dare to enter without warning.
At this time, Baochai poked his head out from the kitchen, saw these two people and laughed and said, "It turns out to be the fourteenth brother, what are you doing here?"
Seeing Baochai wearing gray cloth , Zhu Jingchun and Zhu Jingchun thought they had recognized the wrong person. This was the graceful thirteenth sister-in-law
But the reality was that the person in front of them was the real Princess Xiang.
"Sister-in-law Thirteen, we came in a hurry and missed lunch. Do you have delicious food here?" Zhu Jinghao asked first.
Baochai shook his head and replied, "We only have simple meals, and it's already past the hour. If you are hungry, I will cook you some porridge."
Zhu Jinghao nodded, He bowed and saluted and said, "I can trouble my sister-in-law to add some lotus seeds and longan."
On the side, Zhu Jingchun followed and said, "If I add a few dishes of side dishes, I can barely satisfy my hunger."
Hearing this After saying this, Baochai smiled and said, "Both brothers, we only have white rice porridge, and we don't have any side dishes, lotus seeds or anything like that." "
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, they saw Zhu Jinghong coming out of the middle room with a gloomy face. They were so frightened that they hurriedly greeted him and saluted.
"Brother Thirteen, how good are you these days? The two of us are here to see you."
"Let's just stay with Brother Thirteen to prevent him from being bored by himself." ”
Hearing these two chattering, Zhu Jinghong just looked at them coldly and told them to shut up.
“You two bastards, your sister-in-law cooks porridge for you personally, and you still dare to be picky”
"I asked you to come here to farm the land, not to let you enjoy the blessings. If you want to eat well, go back to the palace and eat it."
"Why don't you say anything? Didn't you talk a lot just now?"
After being reprimanded by Zhu Jinghong in this way, Zhu Jingchun and Zhu Jingchun did not dare to reply at all, and even lowered their heads.
"We are all one family, why bother talking with a red face? Just say less." Baochai immediately came out to smooth things over.
After persuading Zhu Jinghong, Baochai looked at Zhu Jingchun and said, "Fourteenth brother, fifteenth brother, don't take it to heart. Your thirteenth brother has no other intentions. I just want you to adapt as soon as possible." "
"The meals here are no different from those of ordinary people. If you want to eat well, you can only get them back in the palace. All you can do now is be patient."
"We know Wrong, Brother Thirteen." Zhu Jingchun admitted his mistake quickly, followed by Zhu Jinghao.
"Eat if you want to eat, get out if you don't want to eat, and follow me to work in the fields in half an hour."
Training these two people into good farmers will make Zhu Jinghong much more relaxed. , so this is what he has to do.
"Brothers, please wait a moment. I'll make porridge for you now."
"Don't bother me, sister-in-law. We have food over there."
"Yes. Ah, let's go back and eat steamed buns."
With Zhu Jinghong standing here with a dark face, they didn't want to stay here any longer, so they would rather go back and eat steamed buns.
Seeing that they were about to leave, Baochai stopped them again, "Come back"
Hearing this, Zhu Jingchun and the two stopped again, but at this time Baochai had already Go inside.
After a few breaths, I saw her coming out with a teapot and teacups, and said, "It's too choked to eat only steamed buns, so I have to drink water."
Taking it from Baochai's hand The teapot and Zhu Jingchun were somewhat moved. This was the first warmth after today's repeated setbacks.
"Thank you, sister-in-law"
"Thank you, Thirteenth Brother"
After the two thanked them, they walked to their house, where it was already cold. steamed buns waiting for him.
After the two people left, Baochai turned around and said to Zhu Jinghong, "Brothers are fine, why are you doing this?"
"They are here to work. At this time, Speak to them, do you think they will listen?"
"This is a prison set up by the old man, and now I am the jailer here"
Hearing Zhu Jinghong's disrespect again Baochai was already numb to this, and then she said, "Don't be too harsh on them, after all, they are still children."
"We are only one year older than them." "In a few months, they will also be crowned kings," Zhu Jinghong said as he sat on a stool nearby.
This left Baochai speechless. After a moment of silence, she said, "The matter is over now. Complaining is useless. Why do you keep saying those things?"
Baochai said these words The direction is very clear, that is, let Young Master Zhu Jinghong arrange the emperor, such as Chengri saying that the old man does not miss his old relationship and so on.
“He canI can't say anything anymore," Zhu Jinghong said immediately.
Most of these words could reach the emperor's ears, and he spared no effort to maintain his character.
Seeing tells but not listening Zhu Jinghong, Bao Chai was helpless and walked into the kitchen.
After half an hour, Zhu Jinghong got up and picked up the hoe and came outside Zhu Jingchun's house.
Push the door and go in, only to see the two people lying on the bed. Zhu Jinghong immediately scolded, "It's time to work before you get up."
"Brother Thirteen, how can we work?" Zhu Jingchun sat down He stood up and replied.
"No, can't you learn to get up quickly and follow me to the ground?"
"Brother Thirteen, I don't have the energy today" Zhu Jinghao said from the side. < /p>
"Well, let me stretch your muscles and bones." After saying this, Zhu Jinghong put down his hoe and started to rub his fists.
How could the two of them dare to let him rub his muscles and bones? The bed bounced up, and then he picked up the hoe placed behind the door.
"Brother Thirteen, let's go right now," Zhu Jingchun said with a smile.
Although he is good at work. It's very tiring, but it will hurt if you get beaten, and you may have to work after being beaten.
The two went to the fields together. When they learned that they had to hoe such a large area, Zhu Jingchun's legs were weak.
But with Zhu Jinghong here, they could only work hard and learn farming under the old eunuch's teaching. >People are different. Although working is very tiring and boring, these two people still find fun. It is really more fun than studying.
Except for having no one to serve and not having much to eat. Well, the rest are all advantages in the eyes of these two people.
The three brothers only rested for half an hour from the 14th hour of the first day of the lunar month to the 17th day of the lunar month, until the sun was about to set. I just finished my work.
"Brother Thirteen, I'm really tired. I have to sleep when I get back."
"Brother Thirteen, let's have a rest tomorrow."
Walking in front, Zhu Jinghong said in a deep voice, "If you can't take good care of the crops in the field by resting, you may not even think about leaving here."
This sentence alone dissuaded Zhu Jingchun Er. People are greedy for comfort.
The three of them returned to their residence. Zhu Jingchun and the others were about to go back to their hut, but they were stopped by Baochai coming out of the kitchen.
" Fourteenth and fifteenth brothers, let’s eat together from now on. It’ll be troublesome for you to cook your own meals.”
Zhu Jingchun and Zhu Jingchun were originally worried about food and drink, but they felt dizzy when they thought of having to cook for themselves. Da, Baochai’s words at this time were like the sound of nature.
However, they did not dare to agree, but looked at Zhu Jinghong’s face.
“Look. What should I do if I don't thank you sister-in-law quickly?" Zhu Jinghong said coldly.
"Thank you thirteen sister-in-law"
"You are truly a living Bodhisattva who saves all living beings"
< p>The two of them smiled and praised, and then followed into the small courtyard. At this moment, the middle room was alreadyMeals have been laid out."Sister-in-law Thirteen, you did all this" Zhu Jingchun was a little surprised.
Although it was very different from their daily food, they were still particularly surprised when they thought that Baochai made it by himself.
"My old mother and I cooked it together. She also said that she would teach you how to cook. I said that no man can enter the kitchen, so we might as well eat together from now on."
"Some people came just now and brought your rice, flour, grains and oils. I asked them to put them here with us."
"Your clothes were also delivered. Remember to change them when you go back."< /p>
Baochai was talking and preparing for the meal, but was interrupted by Zhu Jinghong at this moment: "They wash their own clothes, they have to do something by themselves."
My wife washes clothes for others, even if she has Even Zhu Jinghong couldn't bear it as a blood brother.
Let them eat easily, and his brother will be kind and righteous enough, Zhu Jinghong thought.
"Yes, yes, we wash it ourselves, wash it ourselves"
Seeing Zhu Jinghong's unfriendly eyes, Zhu Jingchun and Zhu Jingchun didn't dare to hesitate at all, and immediately patted their chests to reassure themselves.
Baochai naturally would not force it, so she smiled and said, "Let's eat."
Seeing that several people were about to start having dinner, the old palace maid and the old eunuch who were in charge of taking care of them just said goodbye and left.
After working all afternoon, Zhu Jingchun and his wife were extremely hungry. At this time, they didn’t care whether it tasted good or not. They picked up the bowls and started eating the rice.
