Zhu Shengduo saw two thousand brocade-clothed cavalry come to him and surround himself and Zhu Yuan, Zhu Shengduo couldn't help frowning. This time he came out to see the Mongolian cavalry, and Zhu Shengduo also borrowed a hundred heavy cavalry from his uncle Zhao Hu, in order to see how the heavy cavalry fought against the Mongolian cavalry. Unexpectedly, he was discovered by the emperor's grandfather before he left the team, and sent 2,000 cavalry to protect him.

Two thousand cavalry was already comparable to the entire strength of some medium-sized tribes in the Mongolian region, and those Mongols saw from afar that cavalry of this size must have avoided from afar, and they were still experimenting with fart at that time.

Zhu Shengduo waved his horsewhip twice with hatred, he knew that these brocade guards were all cronies of the emperor's grandfather, and if they came to protect themselves, they would not let themselves make a mistake, and they would not listen to what they said, they only listened to the words of the emperor's grandfather.

Zhu Shengduo saw that his purpose of sneaking out was bankrupt, so he had no choice but to say to Zhu Yuan: "Fourth uncle, I originally wanted to come out and have a good time with Fourth Uncle today, but I didn't think that this gang of killers would follow, let's go back!" ”

Zhu Yuan is a scholar, unlike Zhu Shengduo, who is brave and ruthless, he didn't want to come out in the first place, but he couldn't help it when he was squeezed by Zhu Shengduo. Now listening to Zhu Shengduo say this, he said with a smile: "Well, you and my uncle and nephew have a chance to go out to play!" ”

After the two finished speaking, they returned to the big team under the escort of the Jinyi Guard cavalry, Zhu Yuan had already opened the mansion and had his own guards and staff, so Zhu Yuan and Zhu Shengduo said hello and returned to their team. Because Zhu Shengduo is not an adult, he still has to live with Zhu Hongsan, so he can only go back to see Zhu Hongsan.

Zhu Hongsan stood on the observation deck on the imperial chariot, and saw Zhu Shengduo walking up with an unhappy face, Zhu Hongsan asked, "What, is there anything unhappy about my precious grandson?" ”

Probably because Zhu Hongsan is getting older, Zhu Hongsan likes this eldest grandson very much, but Zhu Hongsan doesn't like the prince's other son Zhu Shengyu very much.

Zhu Shengduo got on the imperial chariot, and after giving Zhu Hongsan a salute, he said: "Grandfather Huang, why don't you let your grandson go galloping?" ”

Zhu Hongsan heard Zhu Shengduo say this and scolded: "What the hell are you kid fighting, don't you know what you want to think?" What do you and Zhao Hu want to do when they borrow a hundred heavy cavalry? And what do you want to do when you pull your fourth uncle out with you? Don't think I don't know! ”

Zhu Shengduo originally planned to go out to find a small tribe of Mongols to test the impact of the heavy cavalry, and finding Zhu Yuan was just to let him share the responsibility, after all, Zhu Shengduo was not an adult. Now Zhu Shengduo listened to his grandfather's careful thoughts, and couldn't help laughing: "The emperor's grandfather is really eloquent, and his grandson's calculations are all clever in the eyes of the emperor's grandfather!" ”

Zhu Hongsan heard Zhu Shengduo say this, and patted Zhu Shengduo's shoulder dotingly and said: "Boy, it's not that I don't want you to go out to play, it's just that now the enemy and our military situation is unknown, what if you run into the Mongolian cavalry?" The hundred cavalry you and Zhao Hu borrowed are very powerful, and they can protect you from escaping against the Mongols who are several times larger, but have you ever thought about what to do with them? If the Mongols are outnumbered, they will definitely die to protect you, these are all loyal and brave Ming soldiers, did they give their lives for the sake of your idea of playing? ”

Zhu Shengduo's status is precious, and those eunuchs and palace maids in the palace are probably not as important as his pony in his eyes, and now Zhu Shengduo is very puzzled when he hears the statement that Zhu Hongsan is responsible for his subordinates for the first time.

"Grandfather Huang, aren't they here to protect their grandchildren? When they die, doesn't the country have a reward? ”

Zhu Hongsan sighed when he heard Zhu Shengduo say this, Zhu Shengduo has no mother since he was a child, and his father Zhu Hai has no time to teach, so Zhu Shengduo doesn't know much about human affairs. Zhu Hongsan took Zhu Shengduo's hand and said: "Boy, they can naturally die for you, but it's not that they want to die for you from the bottom of their hearts, it's just that because you are my grandson, they are afraid that you will punish them for a mistake." The law can bind them to protect you, but when it comes to life and death, do you think they will give their lives for you? ”

Zhu Shengduo was just twelve years old, and he didn't seem to understand the relationship between these people, and after thinking for a while, he asked: "Grandfather Huang, how can your grandson make them die for your grandson willingly?" ”

Zhu Hongsan did not answer Zhu Shengduo's question, but pointed to a brocade guard beside him and said, "You, go and do it!" ”

The guard, who was in his twenties, did not hesitate after hearing the emperor's order, drew the embroidered spring knife with his left hand and slashed at his right hand. Just when the blade was about to touch the skin, Zhu Hongsan shouted and said, "Stop!" ”

The guard was good, and when he heard the emperor's order, he immediately withdrew his sword, but just now he was too strong, and he also cut a long cut on the guard's arm.

Zhu Hongsan nodded and said, "Go down and bandage it!" The guard bowed silently and stepped back to bandage.

Zhu Shengduo saw this for the first time, but he didn't expect that the emperor's grandfather's order could make that person willingly cut off his hand.

"Boy, do you know why he didn't hesitate to carry out one of my orders?"

Zhu Shengduo thought for a while and said: "Because the imperial grandfather is the emperor, they are afraid of the imperial grandfather!" ”

Hearing Zhu Shengduo say this, Zhu Hongsan laughed, Zhu Hongsan pointed to the other guards around him and said, "Tell me, why can you die for me!" ”

The first one is a thirty-year-old Jinyi Wei Baihu, he bowed down and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the last general was exiled from Jiangxi to Guangdong when he was twelve years old, if it weren't for His Majesty to take in the last general, the last general would have died outside the city of Guangzhou, the last general's current family, wife, and children are all given by His Majesty, so the last general is willing to die for Your Majesty!" ”

Another Jinyi Wei Baihu, who was in his twenties, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the last general's father is Huguang Xungui, but the last general's father died in the bloody battle of Jiangyin, and Your Majesty gave the last general a few hundred acres of land in addition to the knighthood of the general's father, so that the general's mother and several younger brothers can live." Just a few years ago, the younger brother of the general wrote that he had passed the Guangdong Township Test and had become a lifter. Therefore, the last general is willing to die for His Majesty! ”

The other guards in the imperial chariot are almost the same, they are all favored by Zhu Hong, and they are all willing to die for Zhu Hongsan.

After listening to the words of several guards, Zhu Hongsan said to Zhu Shengduo with a smile: "Boy, you heard it!" Why are they willing to die for me? ”

Zhu Shengduo suddenly realized at this time and said: "My grandson knows, if you want to protect them and die for you willingly, you have to treat them well, isn't that so?" ”

"Almost, that's the point!" After Zhu Hongsan finished speaking, he asked with a smile: "I heard that your teacher has been gone for two years and you haven't written a letter to him, is it true?" ”

Zhu Shengduo's teacher is Qian Yiai, who was sent by the emperor to Henan as a political envoy two years ago, so the whole family moved to Henan. As soon as Qian Yiai left, Zhu Shengduo was undisciplined, he didn't go to class every day, he fought every day, and he was not happy.

Now Zhu Shengduo listened to the emperor's grandfather ask, and stammered: "Grandson originally. I wanted to write a letter to say hello.,But.。。 But I was too busy studying and forgot! ”

Zhu Hongsan heard Zhu Shengduo lying here and said angrily: "Fart, you still dare to lie to me, have you studied hard in the past two years?" Don't think I don't know! ”

Zhu Shengduo saw that his grandfather was angry, and quickly knelt down on his knees and said: "My grandson is wrong, please punish my grandfather!" ”

Zhu Hongsan sighed, waved his hand to let the guards in the imperial chariot withdraw, and then said to Zhu Shengduo in a serious tone: "Boy, I can't live for a lifetime, I am almost fifty this year, and very few of my Ming emperors can live past sixty, and now it is nothing for me to protect you, how will you face your brother when I return to heaven?" ”

Zhu Shengduo and his half-brother Zhu Shengyu don't deal with each other, the two are not all the way at all, but Zhu Shengyu is the prince's sister-in-law, and there is the Ma family force standing behind him, if the prince ascends the throne, Zhu Shengyu will definitely become the new prince, and it will be difficult for Zhu Shengduo to die well!

Zhu Shengduo is already twelve years old, and he is used to seeing deceit in the palace, so he is very precocious, and now when he hears the emperor's grandfather say this, he knows that his personal safety is at stake, so he hurriedly asked: "Please teach your grandson!" ”

Zhu Hongsan sighed and said, "I have already chosen a backer for you, that is, your teacher and father-in-law Qian Yiai, but you don't understand my painstaking efforts!" ”

Zhu Shengduo only then knew that the emperor's grandfather had such a big role in appointing such a teacher for himself back then, Zhu Shengduo asked: "Imperial grandfather, grandson will write to the teacher now, but the teacher is already a political envoy, and the grandson can't use high-ranking officials to buy him!" ”

Seeing that Zhu Shengduo was not on the road and Zhu Hong's three qi was in suspense, Zhu Hongsan scolded: "Why are you so stupid, can Qian Yiai compare with those martial artists?" Those martial artists, you give them high-ranking officials, and they will work for you, but is it okay to leave money behind? What those stinky old nine need is respect! ”

Zhu Hongsan breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "From today onwards, you will have to write a letter to your teacher every day!" ”

One letter a day? Zhu Shengduo said in embarrassment: "One letter a day is nothing, but there is nothing to write about!" ”

"Fart, is writing a letter asking you to write something? Writing a letter is to let you connect with Qian Yiai, you can write anything, such as learning, seeing and hearing, and what you think! ”

Zhu Shengduo didn't expect to write a letter like this, so he quickly nodded and agreed.

"And the little daughter-in-law I chose for you, write a few letters to her if you have nothing to do, and you can also send one of the few horses you asked for from your uncle!"

Zhu Shengduo didn't dare to object, anyway, what Zhu Hongsan said would be said first.

After Zhu Hongsan finished speaking, he sighed: "Hey, I'm old, and it will be your young man's world in the future." Boy, I'll help you again, didn't you ask for a hundred heavy cavalry guards from your uncle this time, I now let Zhu Ren take these people to your county palace as guards, how can you let them work for you You can do it yourself! ”
