Chapter 55: Encounter with a thief

By Zhu Yuanzhang's side, Zhu Zhang, who had not said a word before, patted Zhu Di on the shoulder, although Zhu Fan and Zhu Li are half-brothers, but the personalities between the two are very different, holding a military book in Zhu Zhang's arms, similar to Zhu Di, Zhu Fan is also good at fighting, but compared with Zhu Di, a battlefield novice, Zhu Fan has been on the battlefield for many years, and he has been on the battlefield for many years when Zhu Di was a teenager.

"Don't dislike the gift from my brother is not good enough, this is my many years of experience on the battlefield, I hope it will help you, you are also the general of Zhenbei, remember to carry forward our Ming Dynasty outside!" Zhu Fan opened his mouth and handed a seemingly simple book into Zhu Di's hands.

The simple book is Zhu Zhang's experience after every war, Zhu Di just took a cursory look, and found that Zhu Rong recorded in it heroic and domineering, and Zhu Li is different, Zhu Fan looks sunny, not as gloomy as Zhu Di, just as the name has a cool general, although he is not particularly outstanding among the princes, but Zhu Zhang's bold personality makes many officials optimistic about him, maybe Zhu Fan is not a suitable contender for the throne, Zhu Fan is definitely a special general who is popular with the people.

"Second brother, I'm grateful! There will be a use! "Zhu Di is also a brother, except for the gap between him and Zhu Di, the other brothers have a very friendly relationship with him, not to mention the good old man Zhu Biao, even Zhu Rong, a war fanatic, is particularly pleasing to the eye.

Zhu Rong gave Zhu Di his own experience, so that Zhu Li was dissatisfied with Nunu's mouth, Zhu Li never thought that his brother's care for him was not as good as a half-brother, in terms of blood relationship, Zhu Di can not compare to Zhu Li, but Zhu Li's personality has never been pleasing to his own brother, the two brothers' personalities are too different, and they are also mixed in the evaluation of the people.

"Let's go, remember, don't forget your mission!" Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, his smile during this time exceeded the expectations of several princes, who would have thought that Zhu Yuanzhang, who was not smiling, would show a kind smile when he saw off Zhu Di, they had never seen Zhu Yuanzhang so kind, except when facing Zhu Yunwen.

Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions gave Zhu Di a headache, obviously, Zhu Yuanzhang did not forget the gambling agreement left before, Ma Sanbao got the military power from Zhu Yuanzhang for Zhu Di, and he wanted to see the effect after going to Beiping.

Ma Sanbao was a little unimpressed with the gambling agreement, but Zhu Di had a headache, this was the first time he had been in charge of the military and sent troops to go to a city he had never been to, which made Zhu Di gasp.

In Zhu Di's eyes, his father's kind smile was so terrifying, his back was in a cold sweat, and he also knew what would happen if he didn't do it in the original gambling agreement, he smiled bitterly and agreed to Zhu Yuanzhang's task.

"Father, eldest brother, second brother, take care! Third brother, self-respect! Zhu Di respectfully thanked his father and two brothers, as for Zhu Di, he sighed meaningfully, and it was a little difficult to say goodbye to Zhu Li, the news of his disagreement with Zhu Di Other princes and even Zhu Yuanzhang were not ignorant, but they did not blame Zhu Di, leaving Zhu Li with a look of displeasure.

"Brother Wenhe, don't forget your agreement with me, I'll wait for you to come back from Peking to compose a poem for me!" Zhu Xiongying opened his mouth, holding the corner of Ma Sanbao's clothes with his small hand, as if he wanted to go to Beiping with Ma Sanbao.

"Well, I will!" Before Ma Sanbao got into the carriage, he smiled back at Zhu Xiongying, as if he was juggling, he took out a string of sugar gourds from the carriage and handed them to Zhu Biao's arms, staring at Zhu Yunwen with big eyes, "Your Royal Highness, eat more." ”

............................................

The city gate of Nanjing City was as lively as usual, there were caravans coming and going, there were also farmers selling vegetables and shouting, Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao's carriage to Beiping finally walked out of the city gate of Nanjing City.

Zhu Di lifted the curtain, and looked back at the gate of Nanjing City with some reluctance, he was familiar with the gate of Nanjing City, he had been in Nanjing City for many years, and now he was about to leave Nanjing City to go to his own domain, a place that he was not familiar with, which made Zhu Di a little stunned.

"This departure battle really scared me, Your Majesty and several His Highnesses personally sent it off, if this is spread out, it will be more face-saving." Following the convoy to set off, just left Nanjing City, Ma Sanbao is still a little unsatisfied, Zhu Yuanzhang and His Royal Highness the Prince practiced for themselves, that battle is like the leader of the previous life to bid farewell to himself, it is absolutely solemn.

"Hey, you will get used to it in the future, you are different from the people, you are the military advisor of Zhu Di, the general of my town! It's up to you, and on the way, I'll take a look at the notes left by my second brother to see if I have any experience. Zhu Di waved his hand, and seemed to be accustomed to the farewell of the princes and emperors, but it was a pity that there was a prince he didn't like inside, if there was no Zhu Di, then this practice was really perfect.

"General Zhenbei, this name is exquisite!" Ma Sanbao said with a smile, if Zhu Di's name is spread among the people, it may be more deterrent than his identity as a prince, after all, the identity of the prince is because he was born in the royal family, if there is no royal name, it may be no different from ordinary people, but the general of Zhenbei is different, opening up the territory and defending the homeland, and the people have special respect for all the generals and officers and soldiers.

Escorted all the way, Zhu Di's car was only Ma Sanbao and Zhu Di, Zhu Di took advantage of the sunshine to read the notes sent by Zhu Zhang, and Ma Sanbao wiped his AK rifle and the sniper rifle around him all the way, if the two big guns did not show their edge, it was difficult to provoke people to be vigilant like ordinary iron weapons, and only Zhu Di, who had seen AK and sniper rifles, understood the power of these two big killing weapons.

In the other car, the medicine fairy girl stared at the carriage where Ma Sanbao was with mixed feelings, she sighed, and played with the small red pill in her hand, "Hey, he's just a child, is it really worth it?" ”

The carriage went all the way, in this area, it was rumored that there were thieves all over the mountain, but the thieves had ten guts, and it was estimated that they would not come to rob the convoy of the prince of the Ming Dynasty, because of this, many attendants did not have too much vigilance, but they gaged all the way, chatting about each other, and did not care about the changes around them.

Under the shade of the trees not far away, the blades in the hands of the ferocious bandits flashed silver, they quietly waited for the approaching convoy, in their eyes Zhu Di's convoy was like a rich caravan, there were so many attendant handles, Zhu Di's convoy must have a lot of treasures and gold, silver and jewelry, no flags, the bandits did not know that the owner of the convoy was the prince of the Ming Dynasty, after all, not every bandit had a news network in Nanjing, and all the burning, killing and looting were all fate.

"I don't know how many women and jewels are in this group of unlucky people, when the time comes, all the women will be robbed and all the men will be killed!" A bandit smiled lewdly, treating Zhu Di's convoy as an unlucky bastard, and the hideous-looking bandits expressed their excitement one after another, expecting Zhu Di's convoy to approach the area where they were ambushed.

"Do it!" The strong man who looked like the leader of the bandits ordered, only to see a rope protruding from the ground and tripped over the horses at the front of Zhu Di's convoy, and for a while, the attendants fell to the ground with the people and horses, and just after the end, the bandits hiding behind the bushes controlled the attendants who fell to the ground and stopped Zhu Di's convoy.

"Hehe, there are so many guards, it seems that there are a lot of goods escorted, but it's a pity that you have met our Black Wind Village! You have left the women and the jewels, and I may be able to spare you. The bandit leader smiled lewdly and spoke to the attendants, among them, there were many timid maids screaming, for a while, the scene was chaotic, the screams of the maids aroused the fire in the hearts of the bandits, they laughed even better, ignoring Zhu Di's guards.

"Daring bandit, do you know who's in this car? The idea of beating our team? Leave as soon as you know each other, otherwise you will be killed! "Zhu Di's guards are not lacking in hot-blooded people, and in the face of the bandits' provocation, they naturally drew their swords and faced each other, and in response to him, there was a loud bang.

The bandit took out an iron tool in the shape of an iron pipe, only to see the firelight and a loud noise, Zhu Di's guard fell to the ground, there was a blood hole in his chest, and the blood flowed down the blood hole, the guard's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe what had happened.

Seeing the guards breathing, many of the maids lost their faces and screamed loudly, even the guards broke out in a cold sweat, they were very familiar with the things used by the other party, it was a firecracker, a thing that is generally only available in the army, how did it fall into the hands of the bandits, in Zhu Di's convoy, no one carried a firecracker.

"What's going on? Does anyone else have the idea of hitting the Ming royal convoy? Zhu Di frowned, he also heard the sound of the commotion, pulled the curtain, in his eyes, more things are better than less things, maybe report a name to send some silver two These thieves will no longer embarrass themselves.

"You're the leader, aren't you? Do you see the end of disobedience to us? Be honest, leave both the silver and the woman, I may be able to spare you a dog's life, otherwise, there will be no forgiveness! The bandit leader pointed to the corpse of the guard, and said to Zhu Di with some pride, while the fire gun was aimed at Zhu Di's carriage.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am Zhu Di, the Fourth Highness of the Ming Imperial Family, this is my convoy, can you give me face? I'll give you a little silver taels, okay? Zhu Di's face did not change, and he calmly faced the threat of the bandit leader.

"Whew! As long as you return Zhu Di, I will return Zhu Yuanzhang! Not to mention the Fourth Highness, even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu comes, today Lao Tzu wants you to leave the woman and the silver two. Look at your battle, there must be a lot of jewels, listen to the voice, there are a lot of maids in the convoy, right? I don't embarrass you, you said that you are the fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty, then you stay, the maids and jewels stay, and everyone else can go! The thief shouted, and the fire gun pointed at Zhu Di, "Get off Lao Tzu!" ”
