Wouldn't that become a way for Zhu Bi to make a wedding dress for herself?

Xia Mingche thought of this, and felt that something was wrong: "The Zhu family and my grandfather's family are in-laws, if I reach out at this time to take over Zhu Bi's errand, I am afraid that the Zhu family will not be able to explain it, and they are all in Yunfu City, if I take it into my hands, I am afraid that my grandfather will be blamed." ”

"Even if the second brother doesn't take over, it will be someone else," Chu Shaoyuan didn't care, "Zhu Bi can't afford to shoulder this heavy burden, the policies he implemented in Huguang are just castles in the air, not pragmatic, and most of the local officials are flattering to him, and he can really implement it, except for the county seat of the two cousins, he can't find a third place, and the will of letting him return to Yunfu City is also the will of his father, and he can't throw the two provinces aside because he wants to reform bad habits." ”

Especially at this time, civil officials have formed their own set of methods, and officials like Zhu Bi who suddenly appeared are not pleasing at all, no matter how famous they are, they are just adding some gimmicks and to no avail.

Xia Mingche recalled that when he was in Fujian, most of what he heard and saw was like what Chu Shaoyuan said, and he also understood this truth in his heart, but he understood that he really wanted to grab it, and there was still a certain amount of pressure.

"What's more," Chu Shaoyuan couldn't help but persuade him a few words, "The fourth brother is difficult to protect himself now, the Zhu family may not be willing to follow the fourth brother to the dark, the second brother's worry is really unnecessary, besides, even if the fourth brother is evenly matched with me in the future, the number of times you come and go will definitely not be as rare as now, and there will be many such things in the future, will the second brother have to back down every time?"

Originally, the two families did not belong to the same camp, and even if they wanted to back down, they were afraid that the other party would not miss this friendship.

Xia Mingchen usually doesn't like his brother-in-law very much, but this time he thinks what his brother-in-law said makes sense, "Brother Che, let's do this, what can the Zhu family do?" Don't forget that the emperor gave the Zhu family a title, what does this title mean, you also analyzed it with me at the beginning, showing that the emperor will not treat the Zhu family as an ordinary Confucian family, but as a relative, he will give favor, even if Zhu Bi is capable in the future, I am afraid that the emperor will not change his original intention, you really don't have to worry about it." ”

"I did say this true, but it may not be that the emperor is willing to watch the Zhu family decline like this, otherwise he would not marry Princess Fengyi to Zhu Xuan," Xia Mingche said, frowning and a little helpless, "When I was studying with my fifth uncle before, my fifth uncle once said that I was a little indecisive, and I was really told by my fifth uncle, it's not that this thing can't be done, but it can't be like this, Brother Yi'er, let's do it, when Zhu Bi comes back, I will arrange it, and keep them from having any opinions on me going to Huguang." ”

Xia Mingche was willing to put a lot of thought into this matter, saving Chu Shaoyuan a lot of things.

He smiled and nodded: "This is natural, although it is an errand to rob Zhu Bi directly, but things can be done more beautifully, and naturally they must be done more beautifully." ”

After the matter was settled, the day when Zhu Bi came back was getting closer day by day, although Zhu Yu did not have so many warblers and Yanyan around him in the Yijun Palace, but the four princes were not seen all day long, which made Zhu Yu feel sad and happy.

She lost weight day by day in the mansion, she couldn't drink the tonic brought by the maid, and she was melancholy in the face of the summer that was getting hotter and hotter day by day, she still remembered the previous Hundred Flowers Banquet, recalling that a few years ago, she was still a high-spirited girl, and at that time she had thought of using Yao, Huang, Wei and Zi two kinds of precious peonies to win a full house.

Full house, it is indeed Bo, but it is always inferior to others, even if it is a gray and not slippery, not eye-catching evergreen, it makes people like to cherish it so much, that is also the first time she feels powerless, not in her heart, but powerful and nowhere to come out, because everything is set early, if it is not because of that person's favor, how can there be such a thing?

But what can you do? Aren't you just watching, and there's nothing you can do?

When Zhu Ying was full of melancholy, when she waited for the news that Zhu Bi was coming back, she raised her head and looked at the grandmother who brought the news.

"What are you talking about? My second brother is coming back?" Zhu Yu was a little puzzled, "What is he doing when he comes back from Huguang?" Is there something else important waiting for him to do in Yunfu City?"

She has been getting more and more unable to keep up her spirits these days, and even the number of times the fourth prince asks is less, every time she asks about things outside, it is always related to Prince An, and the grandmother seems to have touched something, and she can't believe it for a while, but she is a little jealous.

"The princess doesn't know, the second master seems to have encountered some difficulties in Huguang, this time he came back to select people, so as to clear up the affairs of Huguang as soon as possible, and when the affairs of Huguang are completed, at least our second master can be promoted to a foreigner, this is the first time that our Zhu family has such a big official in so many years!"

Mama's extremely happy mood did not reach Zhu Yu's heart, she has seen too many people who are good governors and soldiers, and she thinks that she is just a small outsider, is it worth such a surprise?

"Okay, since the second brother is coming back, you go and prepare well, and wait for the second brother to come back and come to me!"

Zhu Yu put the matter aside and didn't want to pay attention to it.

Mama didn't just talk about Zhu Bi's return, she looked at Zhu Ying hesitantly, "Princess, don't think the slave is too talkative, it's really ...... Do you know why the prince picked such a time to take you back? You won't really think that the prince repented of his mistakes, right? You! You are too young! You can't think about anything, if the prince doesn't take you back, when the second master comes back, how can he let go of such a big mistake of the prince? What kind of character is the second master? What kind of character is the second master? What he hates the most is this kind of thing, the prince can cover the sky with one hand and hurt you like this, if the second master knows, I don't know how much I feel sorry for you!"

"What are you talking about?" You said that it was because of the second brother that the prince brought me back?" Zhu Ying listened to Mama's words, and a flash of light flashed in her eyes, "Second brother, he really ......"

As a younger sister, Zhu Yu naturally understands his brother's temperament, his brother can't do such a thing, he can definitely do it, so Zhu Jin doesn't have to doubt this.

She felt very regretful, if she had been tough and resolutely not to come back with the four princes, she was afraid that the four princes would not know how to beg her now.

Closing his eyes, Zhu Yu said in a deep voice: "I'll talk about it when the second brother comes back!"
