7. Disarmament and return to the field

Xu Huizu was standing tall and smiling, pouring wine for the man across from us, who had his back to us all the time. Behind them was a woman holding a lute and playing a sonorous tune. Xu Huizu glanced at the woman from time to time, but the person opposite him never squinted.

There were lights on the boats, and we could see them, but our little fishing boat was black, because they didn't see us. Zhu Di slowly turned the small fishing boat around, and saw the front of the person opposite Xu Huizu, that person was Fang Xiaoru, who was appointed by Zhu Yuanzhang and handed Zhu Yunwen into his hands!

Fang Xiaoru is only in his forties, with a clear face and hard eyebrows, and at first glance he is an upright and righteous person. At this time, he was talking and laughing with Xu Huizu on the painting boat.

After Zhu Di saw Fang Xiaoru, his brows furrowed slightly, and he quickly rowed the boat away, running away from the painting boat, getting farther and farther away from them.

I feel a sense of loss in my heart, I still remember when I first met Xu Huizu, he got off the horse and gently asked me where I lived, why I appeared in the hunting ground, after a few years, things are not people and people go to tea and cool, Xu Huizu has also experienced so much, the confidant who was singing about wine and cooking tea in the middle of the night has gradually drifted away. Now, it's as if they've completely become two camps.

Zhu Di saw the sorrow between my eyebrows, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" Regret not going to say hello to Hui Zu? ”

I smiled smirkedly, "The prince is really joking." I'm just curious, why Uncle Xu would travel with Master Fang. ”

Zhu Di was slightly disdainful, "They are now a gang." When I returned to Beijing this time, Huizu didn't see me, and even when I faced the saint, he avoided it under the pretext of being sick. ”

I was stunned, "...... Are you sure? ”

"Is there something fake?" Zhu Di raised his eyebrows to look at me, and his hand stopped moving, and our Ye Bian boat drifted along the Qinhuai River, but the Qinhuai River was originally an inland river, and there was no turbulent current, and the boat barely swayed. The lights on the shore are all reflected on the surface of the river, the water is shining, and there is a big moon reflected down, the breeze is slow, and suddenly people feel full of interest, leaving all those mundane troubles behind, there is a great scenery like this, you can't appreciate it, where is there leisure to take care of those things?

Looking at Zhu Di, he seemed to have the same feeling, not as impatient as in the palace, his face was peaceful, he took off the kingly demeanor on weekdays, and only sat quietly. Suddenly, he pointed to a building on the shore and smiled at me. I looked in the direction he was pointing, and my heart moved, it was the building full of flowers, and even the window that was transparent was the same one I used to live in. Suddenly remembered that Biluo was acquainted here, when we were baking the fire together to look at the scenery through that window to the river, but now it is the people who have passed away, I can't help but feel lost, and then think of Mingyue and the pair of twins, I can't help but feel sour at the corners of my eyes, Zhu Di saw that I didn't speak, so he looked at me, and smiled slightly, "You are crying, what's wrong, little sister?" ”

I was really embarrassed, so I quickly took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of my eyes, "It's okay, I don't know what is blowing in my eyes." ”

"Really?" Zhu Di leaned over and put his face almost to my face, I was so frightened that I shrank back, supported my hands behind my back, and suddenly held my hands into the air, it turned out that the boat was too small, my hands had exceeded the hull, and I was directly supported outside, this time the upper body completely lost its balance, and fell backwards, Zhu Di was also shocked, so he pulled me to my side. However, the boat is too small, Zhu Di is a tall man, both of us went to the side of the boat, the boat immediately lost its balance, swayed left and right, and couldn't withstand me and Zhu Di fluttering twice, and flipped directly, and both of us fell into the water with a thud.

I was not good at water, so I immediately got up in a hurry, and drank several sips of water up and down, and Zhu Di also sobered up and dragged me to the shore. Fortunately, the river was not too wide, and after a while we were on the shore, but our heads were covered with water, and the wolves were unbearable. I was spitting out water, while patting my chest with palpitations, but I didn't hear any movement from Zhu Di, so I looked at him, only to see him looking at me quietly, with a doting smile on his face, although the river was cold, but my face and body were burning. Zhu Di came up again and asked in a low voice, "Come, let me see what is in my eyes?" ”

I was about to step back, but he stopped me, "What, isn't one fall in the water enough?" ”

My face burned more and more, and I bowed my head and kept silent. Zhu Di pulled me up, "Go back and change your clothes." ”

He hired a horse on the street and took me back to the mansion to go back to the room, because I accompanied Zhu Di to the palace, so I wore a dress of a small servant in the Yanwang Mansion during the day, and now they are all changed into women's clothes. When Zhu Di went to the room, he hesitated, but still called him outside, and it didn't take long to see him push the window open, but his upper body was not dressed, and he was naked, smiling with me in the moonlight.

After living here for a long time, even I have become reserved, and when I saw this blood-pumping picture, I couldn't hold it anymore, so I quickly turned around, "Didn't the prince change his clothes?" I'm going to go for a walk in the garden, I want to invite the prince to go with me, since that's the case, then I'll go by myself......" I said intermittently, just finished speaking and was about to go out, there was already a thick figure blocking the way in front of me, and when I looked up, I saw Zhu Di was wearing a piece of clothing while walking out. Because he wanted to open his clothes and put his sleeves on, he was straightening one hand and treading his clothes with the other. Seeing that he was really difficult, I went forward with a red face and helped him pull his sleeve, and suddenly found that he had not yet buttoned the buttons made of jade grains, so that his chest was still wide open, revealing a strong muscle.

I felt like I was electrocuted, and I was about to retreat, but Zhu Di had already ordered, "The button hasn't been buckled yet." ”

Hearing him say like a child, I had to smile and step forward to button him up one by one. When the last two grains were deducted, Zhu Di suddenly hugged me tightly and hugged me into his arms, my face was feverish, and it happened to be attached to his piece of chest meat that had not been hidden, it was cool, but it was very comfortable.

My face was getting hotter and hotter, but after a while, even his chest was warmed by me. Zhu Di let go of me slightly, and said with a solemn face, "Ah Yi, if one day, I have nothing, are you still willing to accompany me?" ”

I lost my mind slightly, "The prince is the prince and the emperor's uncle, how can there be nothing?" ”

Zhu Di smiled bitterly, "You're pretending to be stupid." You know what I'm asking. ”

I pondered for a long time, "The powerful, the rich, the money, are all things outside the body, and they only seek to be single-minded." ”

Zhu Di showed an imperceptible smile on his face, and hugged me tightly, "I know what you think in your heart, and you won't be as superficial as the world." After a while, he continued, "But I don't go after power, but someone measures me with a powerful heart, and I have no way back." ”

I gasped heavily, and my heart was not calm, "Did the prince mean the emperor?" ”

Zhu Di laughed in a low voice, "The current Yun Wei regards me as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, and the few he cut are actually demonstrating to me, and his real purpose is me." ”

When Zhu Di said this, I also had to respond with a strong spirit, "Since the prince has a clear account in his heart, what are you going to do now?" ”

Zhu Di smiled slyly, "Didn't I ask you?" ”

"Ask me?" I frowned puzzled, "This is the prince's business, how can you ask me?" Besides, how can a little woman like me play with the power struggle in the court and applaud? ”

Zhu Di smiled, "I'm still powerless, let alone you." What I ask you is, if I had nothing, would you be willing to stay by my side as you do today, and relieve my worries? ”

I didn't understand what he meant, and I just looked at him with a pair of eyes.

Zhu Di finally let go of me, stretched out a hand to hold me, in front of me to guide the way, all the way to the garden, I was worried, I couldn't understand the meaning of his words, so I had to follow him step by step, until an attic, he stopped, we sat down left and right at a stone table, he said, "I understand Yun Wei's thoughts, but I want to sit firmly in front of him, our uncles are in front of him, so that he can't sleep at night, and it is difficult to sleep and eat." He is a loyal man in the end, if I leave alone, he will definitely eliminate all difficulties to protect every soldier of my Yan Wangfu from any harm. ”

"Lord Wang...... "I was stupid in place, "you ......"

What Zhu Di meant by this was to sacrifice himself and protect his own safety!

"Gao Chi and Gao Xu are both older, they can take care of their mothers and concubines, Yuxian Yuying also has a good family, as long as I leave, Yun Wei will not embarrass them, but will treat each other well. After thinking about it for so many days, I only thought of this best of both worlds. Zhu Di sighed and said.

"Let's go...... Where to go? My lips trembled slightly.

"I'm going to ask you about that. If you are willing to accompany Zhu Di, who has nothing, we can go wherever you say. Zhu Di's eyes were full of sincerity, and his eyes were full of mist.

A wave of excitement and comfort rose in my heart, wasn't this the life I had longed for the most a few years ago? At that time, I pinned all my hopes on Yuelong City, hoping that he could take me to a place where there was no dispute, Yuelong City did not do it, after many years, it was Zhu Di who said the same thing to me again!

It's just that Zhu Di is different from Yuelongcheng, he is the king of Yan who commands thousands of troops and horses, he is the most proud prince of Zhu Yuanzhang in the field, he is a parent official admired by thousands of people in Beiping, and he is the best candidate for the heir that everyone in the government and the opposition is afraid of. It's himself, who has also grown up rolling in power and conspiracy since he was a child, and now that he says this, he actually means to disarm and return to the field!
