The frame drove slowly back to the East Palace, Chang Luohua led people to greet him, and when he got close to Zhu Biao, he smelled the smell of wine, and hurriedly asked people to cook the decanting soup, but Zhu Biao didn't feel anything.

After washing his face and drinking the sobering soup, he fell asleep, anyway, there was nothing to do in the afternoon, it was rare to be able to take a rest, in order to shield the light, Zhu Biao put a screen embroidered with dragon patterns in front of the bed, and in front of the screen there was a flowing gold incense burner that sat on the mountain, about a few feet high, and it was very ingenious.

The warm jade gently ignited the spices inside, and the wisps of green smoke meandered out, and its aroma was like the beauty of musk, some like seaweed, wood, moss, sweet and faint, with special sweetness and extremely long-lasting fragrance base rhyme, which is a very complex aroma combination.

This is a palace characteristic incense based on ambergris, which was passed down from the imperial palace of the Song Dynasty, and is said to be able to invigorate the blood, benefit the essence, help the yang way, and benefit the blood, and calm the nerves.

This was specially sent by coastal officials in the first year of Hongwu, and it was completed after more than a year of production, and Zhu Yuanzhang didn't get much from the total, and basically sent it to the East Palace and Kunning Palace.

At that time, Zhu Biao was still in Fengyang, and Chang Luohua himself was not willing to use it, so he stayed until now, Zhu Biao naturally slept very comfortably, and after waking up, he led Chang Luohua around the yard.

Chang Luohua looked at the radiant husband and asked softly, "Is Your Highness going to leave again tomorrow?" ”

Zhu Biao nodded and said: "There is still something to do in Fengyang, after I finish it, I will go to the coast, and strive to come back before the New Year." ”

Chang Luohua's expression darkened a lot when he heard it, their husband and wife really got together less and left more, and they didn't have much time together after they got married, and when there was a new person entering the palace next year, would His Royal Highness still remember her at that time?

Zhu Biao naturally felt it, and suddenly turned around to look at Chang Luohua, only to see a reluctant smile immediately appear on her face, but she still couldn't hide her worries about the future.

Chang Luohua is just a high school student at this age in the next life, even if she is mentally mature, but it is normal for her to be worried about the current situation in her heart.

Zhu Biao stretched out his hand and grabbed the hand of his crown princess, it seemed that it was the first time they had been married for so long to hold hands like this, Chang Luohua struggled several times, this was too unruly.

Liu Jin, who was following behind, turned around and looked at the palace maids and eunuchs, so frightened that they immediately bowed their heads and stood in place, as if they were a group of wooden people, Zhu Biao took her hand and walked forward, and said softly: "You are the crown princess, no one can surpass you." ”

Chang Luohua didn't answer, is it just the crown princess, not because she is Chang Luohua, just because her identity is the crown princess, is this the answer she wants?

The atmosphere was a little silent, but Zhu Biao didn't say anything, after next year's administration, his East Palace will be stuffed with a lot of women every year, these women he may not love or like, but he will not refuse, this is also the prince's responsibility.

In the evening, Zhu Biao led his crown princess to Kunning Palace, Queen Ma hugged Zhu Lu's little classmate and was talking about something, and sat down after saluting her mother, Zhu Lu first jumped down and said hello to Chang Luohua, and then threw herself into Zhu Biao's arms and was coquettish.

The meal has already been prepared, and now I am waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to come over, I heard that Zhu Biao is going to leave tomorrow, Queen Ma is also a little sad, but she also knows that the people's livelihood is the most important, so she turned her head and comforted Chang Luohua a few words.

They are all women, and she also understands her daughter-in-law, she was the same back then, Zhu Yuanzhang goes out to fight all year round, and it is common to not see her once in half a year and half a year.

After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang walked in, looked at the four people in the room and couldn't help laughing, isn't it just for the family to live so peacefully.

Zhu Biao led the crown princess and Zhu Lu's classmates to salute his father, and after getting up, Zhu Lu looked back at his mother, and then pounced on his father and was hugged by him.

Zhu Yuanzhang is a very traditional person, although he loves children very much, he generally does not show it, and he goes out early and returns late, so except for Zhu Biao, the rest of the princes and princesses are still very in awe of their father, after all, there is no opportunity to understand.

The family gathered around to eat, Zhu Yuanzhang was in a good mood and drank a few more glasses, he didn't have too much reluctance to let his son go out, after all, the boy was ambitious in all directions, and while he still had the strength to spare, it was definitely a good thing to let Zhu Biao go around.

After eating, Queen Ma pulled Chang Luohua to speak, Zhu Yuanzhang led Zhu Biao out to eat and walk, and the father and son walked in the imperial garden with their hands behind their backs, and they put on their cloaks when the weather was a little cold.

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly said: "The king of Shunning of Mongolia has just ascended the throne and has no wife, so he wants to marry a princess of my Ming Dynasty, Biao'er, what do you think?" ”

Zhu Biao frowned, the last king of Shunyi should have been the Mongolian prince who was captured by him, and then accepted the canonization of Zhu Yuanzhang, and the title of Shunyi is very revealing.

Zhu Biao replied directly: "Erchen thought that he refused strictly, and ordered to reprimand, just a Shunyi king, where is he qualified to marry my princess of Daming." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled: "There are nearly 100,000 people in the Shunyi King's department, and it is not a trivial matter to make trouble. ”

Zhu Biao didn't reply, according to his father's character, it was impossible for him to let his daughter marry into Mongolia, and now he just wanted to hear his opinion.

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: "The Mongolian Ministry can't make trouble, they have just recovered a little vitality, where do they dare to use troops again, King Shunyi's request to marry the princess should be a temptation of the Mongolian tribes to my Ming Dynasty, I want to see if we have the strength to restrain them now." ”

On the surface, the Mongolian tribe seems to have constant contradictions, and secretly it is similar, but they can still accept union for the vast land of the Central Plains, and the unified ethnic groups cannot be underestimated.

There are people from the Ming Dynasty in the Mongolian Ministries, and there are also people in the Ming Dynasty who are interested in Mongolia, after all, there are still a lot of former ministers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in the imperial court, although they don't dare to do more, it is still possible to pass on some news.

They should already know that after the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, they will attack Bashu and begin to pass through Yunnan and various parts of the Western Regions, so they want to see if they can get some benefits from this time.

The situation of the Mongolian tribes was actually not very good, Zhu Biao plundered too many cattle and sheep, and the imperial court had been forcibly requiring them to pay tribute to horses, which led to a difficult life for the herdsmen, and the herdsmen who could not survive on the steppe plundered everywhere.

The current situation is that either the Mongol princes and nobles will bear all this themselves, or use the finances to buy some grain from the Ming to help the hungry people, but this is obviously impossible, or they will divert the conflict and let them plunder the Han people.

If the king of Shunyi agreed to marry the princess, it means that Da Ming has no spare energy to waste on them, so he will agree to marry the princess to appease, so the situation will be more complicated.

If they don't agree, then they will be jealous, but there is also discipline that will stimulate them to rebel, after all, there are a lot of fools without brains, as long as they are used and stimulated by people with intentions, it is not strange to do this kind of thing.
