Chapter 78: Enemies Meet
Tang Ming also saw clearly who was in the way after shaking his head, and saw Zhu Gaoxu's gloomy face, and his vicious gaze poured out on himself without reservation. In the face of the defeated generals of his former subordinates, although the other party was a prince, Tang Ming was not afraid at all, and actually returned with a sharp and compelling eye.
Zhang Yu didn't know the friction between the two, and saw that the person who almost collided with him was the second prince Zhu Gaoxu, and laughed casually: "His Royal Highness the second prince also came to the banquet tonight, it is really very happy, come on, come on, the old man will introduce you to you." ”
Zhang Yu pointed at Tang Ming and continued: "This is the disciple of the master, Tang Ming, who has just been sealed by the emperor, you are about the same age, you should be able to talk." ”
"Tang Ming, this is the second prince Zhu Gaoxu, who followed the emperor to fight in the south and the north, and he is a young hero." Zhang Yu, who has always been open-minded, has not figured out the embarrassing atmosphere in front of him until this moment, and is busy introducing the two to each other.
Zhu Gaoxu didn't seem to care about Zhang Yu's enthusiasm, but just glanced at Zhang Yu with a smile on his face, and then nodded his head lightly, and responded with a lunch.
The hot face was attached to the cold ass of others, and Zhang Yu suddenly reacted suddenly, after secretly looking at the faces of Tang Ming and Zhu Gaoxu. Only then did he know that the atmosphere in front of him was wrong, and he could only stand awkwardly awkwardly, not knowing how to crack this strange scene for a while.
Just when Zhang Yu was at a loss, Zhu Gaoxu suddenly sneered and said: "Tang Hou Ye is really a hero and a young man, even my two princes are in your hands, and I have been in prison for a few days, this account book prince remembers in his heart, I hope Hou Ye will take care of himself in the future, hum ......." ”
The implication of the threat could not be more obvious, but Tang Ming just laughed at it, as soon as this matter was over, he would stay away from here and return to his fiefdom. Even if your second prince has the ability to reach the sky, you will never be able to sit on the throne, and if you want to take revenge on yourself, you must have this ability.
"Thank you to the second prince for your concern, Tang Ming is not grateful, the harm has been done in the end, please also ask the second prince to pay more attention to his body." A tooth for a tooth, Tang Ming did not spare him lightly.
"Hmph, clever people, let's see!" After Zhu Gaoxu replied between his teeth, he hurriedly left with his subordinates.
Like Zhu Gaoxu, Tang Ming naturally didn't take his threat to heart, and stepped into the garden.
Zhang Yu never understood what kind of hatred there was between the two, which caused his eyes to be so red when they met, if it weren't for the large number of people here, it is estimated that the two princes would have a big fight. The old man was an open-minded person, and he couldn't hide his words in his heart, and he couldn't bear to be itchy in the end, but he couldn't hold back and asked Tang Ming about it.
Even Zhang Yu, a big man in the army, failed to know about the unpleasant things that happened between him and Zhu Gaoxu. Thinking that this must be the emperor's order to seal his mouth, otherwise, a dignified second prince was put in prison, and such explosive news was not spread unreasonably!
If it was really the emperor's order to come down and seal his mouth, he would have to think about it, could he tell Zhang Yu about it.
Seeing Tang Ming's hesitant look, Zhang Yu became even more curious for a while, and pulled Tang Ming to a relatively secluded place to ask again and again. Seeing that Zhang Yu didn't ask this matter clearly and vowed not to give up, Tang Ming, who suddenly felt helpless, had to explain vaguely.
Although Zhang Yu still doesn't understand some things, he is also an official in the court for many years, and he also knows some things that are inconvenient to say too clearly. It was about the embarrassment of the second prince, and he Zhang Yu naturally didn't dare to continue to ask.
Tang Ming and Zhang Yu walked around the Imperial Garden, but they didn't see Yao Guangxiao and Zheng He, so he had to find a table and sit down casually, waiting for the banquet to start.
"The emperor has arrived!" Soon a male duck sounded at the entrance to the Imperial Garden.
Zhu Di and the queen came steadily under the support of a group of eunuchs and palace maids, and all the ministers present hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted long live.
"Zhong Aiqing doesn't need to be polite, tonight's banquet is my temporary intention, and the termination is just to celebrate, there are not so many rules, everyone is just casual." Zhu Di had a smile on his face, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
When Tang Ming got up, he saw Zheng He and Yao Guangxiao both following Zhu Di's side, but Zheng He looked at him worriedly, and took the opportunity to pass by him, and quickly said two words in ******'s ear, 'Be careful'!
Stunned for a moment, Tang Ming still couldn't figure out what Zheng He meant, whether it was because he wanted to be careful of the second prince's troubles. But how long has it been since this incident, and it stands to reason that Zheng He should not be able to know about it, but if it is not for this, what else do you need to be careful about?
The puzzled Tang Ming couldn't help but follow Zheng He's back, and suddenly a figure flashed in his mind, and he instantly understood why Zheng He reminded himself to be careful.
In the palace, Zheng He has many eyeliners, and his rival is Li Xing, so Zheng He will definitely get the news as soon as there is any news about Li Xing. And he was at the gate of the palace just now, embarrassing Li Xing in front of all the ministers.
Tang Ming was already sure that things must be like this, and Li Xing was because those wines were collided with by his top, so he thought that he should want to take revenge on himself. With a sneer on the corner of his mouth, Tang Ming was no longer worried about this matter.
If Li Xing didn't trouble himself, he could act as if it had never happened, and if he wanted to use this to humiliate himself, then don't blame him for tearing his face and slapping him a few times.
After Zhu Di and the queen sat down together, they announced the start of the banquet. Tang Ming specially chose a relatively remote table in order not to attract attention, so at this moment, there were ten tables away from the emperor. While chatting with Zhang Yu at the same table, Tang Ming's eyes were always paying attention to the situation on the emperor's side.
Sure enough, not long after the banquet began, I saw Li Xing holding a book in his hand and respectfully handing it to the emperor to watch. At this moment, the figure of the second prince suddenly appeared behind Zhu Di, stretched his neck and looked at the notebook, as if he was afraid of missing something.
This book is used by Li Xing to register the number of gifts given by various ministers, and Zhu Di's purpose in holding this banquet is nothing more than to make money. Naturally, everyone present understood, so all the people sent were silver taels.
Originally, Tang Ming came relatively late, and the registration should have been a little later, but at this time, in the book presented by Li Xing, the first line of the first page was to register the gift given by Tang Ming. This is obviously Li Xing's manipulation, this Si is afraid that Tang Ming's registration will not be visible to Zhu Di in the back, so he deliberately made it to this conspicuous position, as long as Zhu Di opens it, he can see it at a glance.
