Chapter 194: Backyard Stability

Soaking in the warm water, Zhu Zhanji's eyes were slightly closed, and the outline of his body was exposed to the green bamboo and green plums like this.

Zhu Zhanji, who has turned 18 years old this year, has fully developed and matured, and his originally thin body has gradually bulging muscles.

But his sturdiness is not the kind of bulging muscles that are trained in the gym for the visual impact of the body, but a well-defined, yet beautiful, flexible firmness.

At this time, Zhu Zhanji didn't move, only his chest kept rising and falling at a very strange frequency.

Luzhu and Qingmei didn't dare to disturb Zhu Zhanji, and quietly packed up the towels and cushions next to them, preparing to massage Zhu Zhanji for a while.

They don't understand what Zhu Zhanji practices on weekdays, and sometimes when they learn Zhu Zhanji's desire to perform that kind of extremely difficult action, they will make themselves feel painful.

Concubine Taisun told them that Taisun practiced Taoist tuna and yoga, but they didn't understand any of them.

They only know that as long as they serve His Royal Highness the Taisun in their own right.

Coming out of the pool naked, the two girls hurriedly took a towel and helped Zhu Zhanji dry the water droplets on his body, and Zhu Zhanji twisted his body at will and made a few unbelievable movements.

In the past, because of the pursuit of the body's ability to resist blows, he practiced yoga breathing to a high depth, but he did not dare to practice these movements to the extreme.

Because yoga takes a light and long-lasting path, it is contrary to the explosive power of fighting and the ability to resist blows.

But in this life, he began to practice Taoist tuna since he was a child, and it was not until now that he understood what Taoist tuna was better than yoga.

The role of yoga is to regulate and develop the potential of the body, and this effect is obvious and useful for ordinary people. Because as long as you practice for a long time, everyone can feel the changes in your body.

However, the Taoist technique of tuna is far more advanced than yoga, because the Taoist technique of tuna almost completely changes a person's body and enters another level.

Why Taoist tuna must be practiced from a young age, when you grow up, the effect of practice is not obvious.

The main reason is that only by practicing from an early age can a person's physique and internal government be completely changed before the body develops, so that the whole body can fit the health and strength of Taoist kung fu.

This essentially changes one's body and is one level higher than the improvement and potential of yoga.

Zhu Zhanji's body is not as strong as in his previous life, in his previous life, he could grow to nearly two meters tall and weigh two hundred pounds, but in this life, it is difficult to grow to one meter nine.

But even so, he is already much taller than most people, and there is a feeling of standing out from the crowd.

The point is that he can feel that the level of his connection is higher than in his previous life, but this body still doesn't seem to have finished improving, which makes him feel powerless.

Although Zhu Zhanji did not move his body like ordinary people, when he was pranayama, he had already fully exercised every muscle in his body, even the inner house.

Lying on the cushion where a hole was dug in his head, he relaxed the muscles of his whole body, and let the two girls of Luzhu and Qingmei massage him vigorously to relieve the fatigue of the muscles in his body.

The two girls were no strangers to his body at all, and they were not as shy as they were at the beginning, and massaged them vigorously.

After a massage, the two girls brought another bowl of chicken soup stewed with wild ginseng, and Zhu Zhanji drank two large bowls, and then ordered: "Help Gu get dressed, let people drive, and go to Liu Zhaoxun." ”

Lu Zhu said boldly at this time: "Your Highness, Concubine Taisun has not had a good appetite these days, what she eats and vomits, I look forward to Your Highness being able to pay a visit." ”

According to the rules of the palace, all pregnant concubines automatically lose the right to serve in bed.

Zhu Zhanji has many concubines, one a day, and it will take two months if he wants to be on the wheel. These days, except for the occasional sight of some pregnant concubines basking in the sun in the garden during the day, Zhu Zhanji will say a few words to them, but he really hasn't comforted them at night.

Seeing Luzhu's apprehensive appearance, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help laughing and said, "You think about the Lord, your loyalty is commendable, and Lone will not blame you." Since you said it, I'll go and sit with Concubine Ai. ”

Wearing only an inner robe, Zhu Zhanji wore his hair loose, and came to the apse surrounded by a group of chamberlains.

At this time, not long after dinner, in Sun Xian's apse, she was cutting children's swaddling clothes and clothes with a group of concubines and palace maids.

At night, they are not allowed to use needlework for fear of hurting their eyes, so they usually embroider and sew during the day and cut at night.

"Your Highness is here,...... Why hasn't my hair been dried yet? ”

"It's dry, it's just too lazy to comb my hair, anyway, I'm going to sleep for a while, and it's the same if I take care of it tomorrow morning."

Xue Shanggong touched his hair, and saw that it was really dry, so he didn't pursue it. smiled: "I'm afraid that His Royal Highness feels sorry for the green bamboo and green plums again, and I can't bear to let them be tired!" ”

When the two women heard this, they both stood aside with their heads bowed, not daring to answer.

They were specially arranged by Sun Xian to take over the four daughters in spring, summer, autumn and winter to serve Zhu Zhanji to take a bath, the purpose was to fix their pets.

The two daughters are also people with outstanding appearances, but after all, they are still people who are classified into the palace maid system. They are several levels behind Xue Shanggong, the female official of Xingqing Palace, and even the concubine is courteous to Xue Shanggong, how dare they argue with Xue Shanggong.

Sun Xian smiled at this time: "No one in the palace knows, His Royal Highness seems to be incomprehensible, but he is the most pitiful and cherishing the jade." ”

Before she could finish the sour words, she retched again. Whether it's true or not, Zhu Zhanji must care about it at this time.

He came to Sun Xian's side, grabbed her little hand and asked, "What's wrong with Concubine Ai?" But what's uncomfortable? ”

Sun Xian's face was full of satisfaction, and she said softly: "It's okay, it's just that I'm a little nauseous these days, and my morning sickness is a little bigger than others' reactions, so it's okay." ”

Zhu Zhanji sighed in his heart, there are too many wives, and this is the trouble. Many times I have to act in front of people, but after a long time of acting, it is difficult to see even the sincerity.

Whether it is Sun Xian or Hu Liangdi, their feelings for Zhu Zhanji are naturally not adulterated. However, in addition to winning Zhu Zhanji's love, the most important thing is to establish their own image in front of others and stabilize their position.

Zhu Zhanji cannot dismantle the stage yet, and must safeguard their position.

With other concubines present today, Sun Xian naturally wanted to make a move, and Zhu Zhanji also had to go down the stage, showing a posture of blending oil in honey, so that others did not dare to offend the status of the princess.

This is not only to maintain Sun Xian, but also to maintain the rules of the palace.

After chatting with Sun Xian for about a quarter of an hour, Zhu Zhanji said goodbye and left.

Xue Shanggong sent him to the door of Xiyuan all the way to the door before stopping. "Your Highness, this expedition will take a long time, and you have to make arrangements as soon as possible for which concubines and palace maids to serve."

When a large army goes out, even if it is an ordinary commander, he can't bring his family, but as a royal family, this is a matter of course.

For the royal heir, succession is more important than a big victory.

Zhu Zhanji thought for a while and said: "Then arrange for Liu Chenghui to go with her, she is proficient in medical skills, if I have a headache and brain fever, I don't need to alarm the imperial doctor." ”

"Phew, bah, the child is unjigli, the ancestor of the Sanqing Dao is on top, bless the grandson without illness and disaster......"

After praying solemnly, Xue Shanggong said again: "Next time, you can't be so taboo...... I know, but Liu Chenghui's status is too low, and now Lan Liangdi is not pregnant, let her serve by your side, and she can also be her own circle. ”

Zhu Zhanji went on the expedition, and the eunuchs, palace maids, guards, and generals around him formed a set of systems. In the past, everyone's handover point was Zhu Zhanji's body, or Li Liang coordinated.

But this time Li Liang made a mistake and was punished, and Zhu Zhanji also wanted to snub him for a while and let him not swell up.

After listening to Xue Shanggong's arrangement, he nodded and said, "It's okay, it's just that Lan Liangdi is simple-minded, and she doesn't know if she can cope with it." ”

Xue Shanggong said with a smile: "Lan Liangdi is just a little nerdy and has experienced few things, she is not stupid at all." If she is really stupid, she can become sisters with most of the concubines in the palace? This person has an atmospheric side of personality, and with a little training, he can also become your right-hand man. ”

Zhu Zhanji laughed and said: "It's a pity, if you become my concubine and serve by my side, you can't be more suitable for this position." ”

"Your Highness is here to laugh at my old woman again......" Xue Shanggong was blessed, saluted and said: "The old woman will help His Highness take care of the family in this life, I don't want to worry about other things." ”

A thirty-year-old woman called herself an old woman here, which made Zhu Zhanji can't help but want to laugh. In later generations, I don't know how many women are still single in their thirties, and they still think that they haven't grown up!

On April 16, Si Tianjian and the Ministry of Rites calculated the best time to set out for the expedition, which was the afternoon of April 19.

The date was calculated, and whether it was in the palace or the imperial court, the preparations were in full swing.

Huang Fu returned to the capital, and without even a day of rest, he took over the logistics of the entire army.

The navy is much simpler than the army, and there is no need to prepare baggage teams, people, horses, and naturally no horse materials.

But the distribution of logistical supplies for each fleet is still a tedious task.

Although he was experienced, because he took over too late, he did not steal the limelight from Liu Jiang.

On the contrary, he put his position relatively low, and only acted as a liaison between the navy, the military department, the emperor, and the grandson.

This is mainly because he already regards himself as a grandson, and his son is now quite valued by Liu Jiang, the governor of the navy, so he has no idea of grabbing credit, just picking up the gaps on the side.

Although Zhu Zhanji has always wanted to get in touch with this famous minister, in order to avoid Zhu Di's taboo, he still endured not meeting him alone.

The two of them only met from a distance at the court meeting, and they left a good impression on each other.

And just when the capital was all mobilized to prepare for the expedition of the grandson, Yang Zhangde, who was far away in Hubei, hurriedly got on the boat back to the capital.

On this trip home, Yang Zhangde was proud of the spring breeze, and he did return home.

Although he was expelled from the mountain by Wudang, he grew up in Wudang after all, and he also knew that now Wudang was listed by Zhu Di as the ancestral court of Taoism in the world, and he had to care about some influences.

So although he was expelled from the court, he did not have any resentment, and he was only grateful to Wudang. He knows very well that without Wudang, there would be no where he is today.

So after returning to Wudang, not only did he not act as a special envoy, but he regarded himself as a disciple of Wudang everywhere, and his position was very upright.

In terms of lay disciples, he is also a generation of Xuanzi, the Taoist name Xuande, and in terms of the court, he belongs to the department of Tongwei Zhenren.

When he returned to Wudang, he respectfully took his wife to meet his master. As a special envoy, Wudang couldn't expel him this time, and after being received by Tongwei Zhenren, the master and apprentice were also full of feelings.

Yang Zhangde offered ten jars of good wine, and asked his wife Li Qing'er to meet the master, and neither side mentioned that he was expelled from the mountain.

was received by Tongwei Zhenren, and then it became logical to meet other teachers and uncles. After a few days, although a lot of gifts were given, Wudang accepted him again.

Yang Zhangde was very excited about this. He designated himself as of a low background, and there was no foreign aid in the court except for the support of his grandson.

Wudang can accept him again, which means that he has one more party to support.

Now although Xuan Zhen has left the side of the grandson and served as the head of Zhu Zhanji's younger brothers, Xuan Cheng of Wudang is still going to take his place.

Xuan Cheng and Yang Zhangde are not much different in age, and they often played and practiced together when they were children, and their kung fu was not weaker than Yang Zhangde.

And this time, Taisun intended to let Wudang appoint many people to serve as his own guards, and Wudang did not discount at all, and selected 36 disciples in their early twenties to serve as Zhu Zhanji's personal guards.

Wudang is still the holy family, and he can also become one of Yang Zhangde's foreign aides in the future.

The completion of the Golden Palace, but also Wudang has become a symbol of the ancestral court of Taoism in the world, the Jiao ceremony was also held very grandly, the world's Taoist fame, all sent people to congratulate the gift.

But Yang Zhangde was calm and light on the surface, but he was anxious in his heart. His Royal Highness Taisun saw that he was about to go on an expedition, but he was still thousands of miles away.

Finally, when the birthday of the Arctic Crape Myrtle Emperor ended on April 18, and the Jiao ceremony in Wudang was over, he couldn't wait to say goodbye and prepare to return to Beijing.

In addition to Xuan Cheng, there were thirty-six teachers and nephews who accompanied him, and they had lay disciples, but most of them were beginner Taoists of the Qing generation.

But in order to curry favor with Zhu Zhanji, they couldn't take care of the monks' reserve, and they wanted to establish a closer relationship with the heir of the empire.

These days, the happiest thing is Li Qing'er's New Year's self, she originally married Yang Zhangde, who was born recklessly, for the fate of her family.

But I didn't expect that although this husband seemed to be vicious, he was considerate to her, and even when he came to Wudang this time, he kept her by his side and let her see a lot.

Since she was a child, it was the first time she had gone far away like this. Therefore, she is now more satisfied with this husband, and took the initiative to help Yang Zhangde pick up the gaps and act as his military advisor.

This made Yang Zhangde more and more satisfied with this wife, and the two of them can be called like fish in water, mixing oil in honey.
