Chapter 300: Gather in Beijing
() Hearing the other party's inquiry, Zhu Di was stunned at first, although he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but he quickly remembered this voice, smiled slightly, and said to the brocade robe headed by him,
"It's the seventh brother, right? This king is your fourth brother. ”
"It's really the fourth brother! How did you get here? ”
While saying loudly in a tone of surprise, the brocade-robed man had already galloped to the front, and when he came and went, he almost collided with Zhu Di's horse's head before he stopped his mount.
Zhu Di looked at him, and when he saw that it was really his seventh brother, Zhu Rong, the king of Qi, he couldn't help but ask in surprise,
"The seventh brother came to ask the fourth brother me, isn't your fief in Qingzhou? How did you get here? ”
"Oh, the fourth brother doesn't know, the younger brother and I have been stationed here for a while."
Zhu Yu replied with a smile, and by the way, he glanced at these people around his fourth brother.
How did he come here and camp-
Zhu Di was a little strange, and after thinking about it, he asked very strategically,
"Since you've been stationed here all along, Seventh Brother, what's the location of that abandoned building that looks like a manor not far away? Why did you end up in such a field? ”
"It's because of that manor that my younger brother is stationed here."
Zhu Yu glanced in that direction with some helplessness and disdain, and said,
"Fourth brother, do you know who it belongs to?"
"Fourth brother, I just don't know, so I asked the seventh brother."
Zhu Di deliberately made an expression of ignorance.
Zhu Yu smiled,
"I'm afraid it will surprise you if you say it, it was originally the land of Lanyu, and for many years it has encroached on the land here, and it has encircled such a large manor. When his father ordered him to be killed, he sent his younger brother here to raid this place, because this place is too big, and there are many and cumbersome things, so he has been stationed here for so long. ”
"Oh, I see,"
Zhu Di understood at this point, nodded and said,
"In this way, the seventh brother has really worked hard."
"It's hard work, but, fourth brother, where are you going?"
Zhu Yan asked curiously.
Zhu Di smiled slightly and replied,
"Fourth brother, I received my father's edict and entered Beijing to participate in the canonization ceremony of the imperial grandson. How? Didn't you receive the edict, seventh brother? ”
"This ......"
Zhu Yu hesitated for a moment, with a strange expression on his face, and said,
"Of course I received the edict, but I didn't want to go in such a hurry...... However, since you have met you, the fourth brother, can you wait for the younger brother, let me prepare, and let's go to Beijing together. ”
"Well, okay."
Everyone said so, and there was no reason not to wait for his seventh brother, so Zhu Di had no choice but to nod and agree. Fortunately, not far away is the camp where the soldiers led by Zhu Yu are stationed, and their group can be regarded as having a foothold today.
In this way, he rested in the camp for a day, and the next morning, Zhu Yu ordered his commanders to continue to guard this place, and he selected dozens of guards and went on the road with Zhu Di.
While walking, Zhu Yu also asked,
"Fourth brother, why did you go to Dongchang yesterday?"
"Oh, you want to know this, that's because the geographical location of Dongchang is very important,"
Zhu Di replied very easily and naturally,
"You also know that Fourth Brother, my biggest interest is to lead troops to fight, and I am also very concerned about the important geographical location and environment, so I stopped by there to see it with my own eyes."
"Oh, that's right,"
After listening to his explanation, Zhu Yu's eyes were full of admiration.
"Fourth brother, you are so amazing, you can even think of marching and fighting even by walking. My little brother really wants to follow you to the battlefield to kill the enemy. ”
"The seventh brother is also very remarkable,"
Zhu Di smiled and said,
"Otherwise, my father wouldn't have handed over such a thing as the seizure of the Liangguo Gonggong property to you, would he?"
"Well, what the hell is this?"
Zhu Yu's face showed that disdain again,
"Raiding a house and destroying a door, where is it better than really fighting on the battlefield in front of the two armies? By the way, fourth brother, when there is a war to fight in the future, can you take my little brother and me with you? ”
"It's not like going out and having fun, it's something that makes people feel relaxed,"
Zhu Di smiled bitterly and said,
"In addition, if there is really a war, who is appointed to the front of the battle, it will be up to the father and the emperor to decide, how can I promise you something about this, fourth brother."
"But, little brother, I really want to fight with you, fourth brother......"
Zhu Yu looked a little disappointed and muttered.
Looking at his lonely expression, Zhu Di couldn't help but shake his head and said,
"However, seventh brother, you don't have to be discouraged, if your father allows it, fourth brother, I will definitely let you go to the front of the two armies together."
"Really?! Yes, that's great! ”
got the promise of the fourth brother, Zhu Rong was happy as if he could go to the front of the battle immediately, and he looked eager to try.
In this way, I went all the way to the capital smoothly.
According to the convention, Zhu Di must live in Xu's mansion, but there is currently a seventh brother by his side, so he had to accompany him to the "Zhengyang Station" first.
As soon as he came to the door of the pavilion, he was picked up by a poster, and he looked at the two brothers first, and then hurriedly came over to give a salute,
"Your Highnesses King Yan and King Qi, you two arrived early enough, hurry up and invite inside, the residences of the two have been prepared for Your Highnesses."
"Oh, this king doesn't have to,"
Zhu Di waved his hand and said,
"This king is only here with the seventh brother, and I still plan to live in the Wei State Mansion."
"Ah, by the way, His Royal Highness King Yan,"
Yi Cheng hurriedly saluted,
"You probably don't know, a few days ago, the emperor specially sent someone to pass down an edict, saying that all the princes who enter Beijing must live in this Zhengyang Station, and he also emphasized that including Your Royal Highness."
"That's how it could be......"
Zhu Di's heart moved, and he was suddenly a little suspicious, but his face did not show the slightest expression, he just nodded and said,
"In that case, then the king will also live here, and I will take care of you to lead the way in front."
"The responsibilities of the subordinate officials, how to talk about the word annoyance."
While saluting again, the post man led the two brothers, Zhu Di and Zhu Rong, as well as their entourage, to walk inside.
This Zhengyang Station was originally set up to receive officials at all levels from other provinces entering Beijing, so it not only covers a large area, but also has an elegant environment and various facilities. The two brothers followed the official who led the way to the residence arranged for them to take a look, and seeing that their two courtyards were not far away, Zhu Rong's face suddenly showed a satisfied smile.
Zhu Di looked around, nodded, suddenly remembered something, and asked,
"Let me ask you, where do the two highnesses, King Zhou and King Qin, live?"
