Chapter 24: Empress Xu's funeral!

"This is the armor you gave me, and I will cherish it." Zhu Chen said solemnly.

Zhu Di bowed his head and nodded: "That's good, take good care of it, and you can keep it as an heirloom in the future." ”

"Haha, good!" Zhu Chen laughed, and when he put on the armor, he was also a little bold.

At this moment, he was wearing a suit of armor and holding a sword, which really opened the eyes of the old man, his grandson Zhu Di was really heroic and extraordinary, and he was much more powerful in this armor.

Zhu Di couldn't help but think to himself, if his father was still there, he would definitely like this child very much.

This red armor of Ming Taizu has always been placed in the armory, and over the years, Zhu Gaoxu, the king of the Han Dynasty, has coveted this armor, and every time he wins a battle, he asks Zhu Di for this armor, but Zhu Di has never given it.

Why?

Because this armor symbolizes imperial power, if it is given to the king of Han, wouldn't it be a change for the crown prince?

It's just that although Zhu Di has refused many times, the Han King's love for this armor has never changed, if Zhu Gaochu knew that Zhu Di gave this armor to others, I was afraid that Zhu Gaochu would be furious, right?

"Second child, don't blame my father for being partial, he is my eldest grandson, I can only give it to him, not to you." Zhu Di thought secretly in his heart.

Although this is not very fair to Zhu Gaoxu, the old man has obviously made a choice.

This armor of Ming Taizu has a new owner, and his name is Zhu Chen!

With a smile, Zhu Di patted Zhu Chen: "Since you have picked them all, let's go back." ”

Zhu Chen smiled and nodded, followed Zhu Di out of the armory, and returned home satisfied.

Zhu Chen liked this gift very much.

It's just that after leaving the barracks, wearing this body was too conspicuous, so Zhu Chen took it off and hugged it home, planning to go back and enjoy it slowly.

After Zhu Di sent Zhu Chen home, he turned around and went back to the palace, he was going to check the prince's homework......

……

Meanwhile.

In the military camp on the outskirts of Daming, just an hour or two after the old man and Zhu Chen left, the King of Han came to the barracks.

The king of Han was also a military general, and his battle was very fierce, and his heroism was never lost to Zhu Di, and he had defeated the Jianwen army several times in the Battle of Jingnan.

Therefore, he also likes to come to the barracks to train the soldiers, and he is also familiar with the soldiers.

It's just that just as he was about to train the soldiers, a general guarding the armory suddenly came over and reported: "King Han, the emperor has been here this morning, and it seems that he took away the red armor of the great grandfather." ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Gaoxu instantly frowned: "Go, take me to see." ”

With that, the two of them walked towards the armory in a hurry.

When the door of the armory was opened, Zhu Gaoxu walked in quickly, and sure enough, the red armor that had been hung before was now empty.

All the armor is still there, but the armor of Ming Taizu is missing!

Zhu Gaoxu chuckled in his heart, and his face instantly became extremely gloomy: "Why did the old man take away the armor?" Who did he bring back to? ”

Seeing Zhu Gaoxu's terrifying tone, the general who was in charge of the armory hurriedly bowed his head: "I don't know, maybe I brought it back to the palace to reward you......"

"Give it to me? Are you pig-brained? The old man has already rewarded him, and he still needs to take it to the palace? Zhu Gaoxu shouted angrily.

"I know, I know, the old man is going to take it to the boss, right?"

Because this is royal armor, who else can you give it to the palace except for the boss?

"That armor, I begged for eleven years and didn't get it, and now he brought the armor to the boss?" Zhu Gaoxu was a little excited, and his face was gloomy.

"Why? How many victories have I fought, from the Battle of Jingyan to Arutai, dozens of battles, large and small, and you didn't reward me, but rewarded the boss? ”

"Damn, this dad is too partial, isn't he? I don't accept it, I don't fucking accept it!! ”

Zhu Gaochu has one of the most beloved things, the sadness and anger of being taken away.

His anger went straight to the Heavenly Spirit Gai!

"Lord Han, ...... you" The general guarding the armory was about to speak, when Zhu Gaoxu's eyes looked at him sharply.

King Han said gloomily: "I asked you to take good care of this armor, have you taken care of it?" ”

The general hurriedly said: "Lord Han, I can't help it, it's the emperor's ......."

"I don't care what kind of king Lao Tzu is him, the armor is gone, you can die!" Zhu Gaoxu's eyes suddenly turned scarlet, he pulled out the sword at his waist, and walked slowly towards him.

The general was so frightened that he was sweating profusely, and hurriedly knelt down: "Lord Han, please spare my life, for the sake of me following you for many years......"

He kowtowed like pounding garlic, but Zhu Gaoxu, who was angry, how could he let him go?

Zhu Gaochu walked in front of him, squatted down, and then directly stabbed the sword into his abdomen, and the general's eyes slowly disappeared, and then fell on Zhu Gaoxu's body softly.

Zhu Gaoxu smiled coldly: "You took so many golden beans from me, do you think you took them for nothing?" ”

It was difficult to calm down and be angry, and now he even wanted to rush into the palace to find the old man to judge, but he knew that it was too late.

And he killed this general directly in the armory, and if he didn't get it right, he would cause the army to mutiny, but Zhu Gaoxu never considered the consequences.

The door of the armory was suddenly pushed open, and Zhu Gaoxu's general walked in, seeing a corpse falling on the ground, he suddenly felt cold in his heart, and said cautiously: "Lord Han, the Ministry of Rites has been drawn up, and you will send the queen's Luan out of the city and move the Ming Changling Mausoleum to be buried." ”

This is good news.

Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said, "Got it." ”

……

The most beloved armor of the Han prince was snatched away by Zhu Chen like this, but Zhu Chen didn't know it.

At this time, he was happily trying on armor at home.

Putting on armor to practice martial arts is indeed majestic, and this kind of happiness is something that Zhu Chen can't experience as a modern person.

It's just that fortunately there is a system reward, otherwise it would be a little inconvenient to wear such heavy armor on the body, let alone practice martial arts now.

After practicing all night, Zhu Chen took good care of this armor and put it under his bed.

"The old man said that it is possible to go to Warat next year, and if there is a real fight next year, I can wear this armor and go out with the old man."

Zhu Chen was happy when he thought about it, as for the injury on the expedition, it should be unlikely, with Zhu Chen's current sharpshooter ability, who can get close to him?

If there is no life guarantee, Zhu Chen will not go, he is not a fool.

Finally, touching the armor again, Zhu Chen smiled and said, "From now on, you will be my armor." ”

It's time to come up with a name for the armor, right?

Zhu Chen thought about it, and when he saw the bright red color, his eyes couldn't help but light up: "Since you are red, then you will be called Red Bull in the future." ”

Haha, fairy names.

In the next few days, Zhu Chen started to write books again, and his drilling strength made him improve by leaps and bounds in books.

Compared with the tranquility of Zhu Chen's courtyard, there was a commotion outside.

The next day, Zhu Di's original partner, the queen of Ming Chengzu, Queen Xu came out of the palace and migrated to Tianshou Mountain in Beiping City!

The accompanying guard of honor consisted of about seven or eight thousand people, and it set out from the palace before midnight.

Along the way, many people knelt on the ground to send off Empress Xu's coffin.

The spectacle was huge and loud, and it was the migration of the highest standard of royal etiquette.

Queen Xu, the daughter of Xu Da, the founding general of the Ming Dynasty, loves to read, and like the crown prince, she loves the people very much and treats the people very well.

It's just that Empress Xu died in the fifth year of Yongle, and Zhu Di has been putting it in the palace, waiting for the completion of the Ming Changling Mausoleum.

Now, the Ming Changling Mausoleum has been built, so the coffin of Queen Xu should be buried.

It is also recorded in the history books that this time is very large-scale.

Most of the queens of the Ming Dynasty seem to be more virtuous, and this Queen Xu is no exception, and she also has a very important identity, that is, the grandmother of the grandson Zhu Zhanji!

Empress Xu was weak, so Yongle died in five years, but no one knew that Queen Xu was weak due to anxiety and illness, and she loved her grandson Zhu Zhanji more than Zhu Di, which is traceable in history.

Since her grandson is gone, Queen Xu's health has been much worse than before, and she often talks about Zhu Zhanji, but until the queen dies of illness, she never sees her grandson again.

How sad is that?

Before Empress Xu left, she vaguely recognized the child of the second family as Zhu Zhanji, and held the hand of the second child tightly and said, "Zhanji, are you back?" Grandma is reading you......"

At that time, Zhu Di couldn't hold back and cried.

Zhu Gaochi was so remorseful that he stretched out his hand to hit his face, the fat was crackling, and he was bleeding in a few strokes, kneeling on the ground and shouting: "Mother, I'm sorry for you, it's me who lost Zhanji......"
