18. Gather up grain, build high walls, and be king at once

In the backyard of Miaoci'an, Cheng Yuan sat by the carriage, one leg hanging from the side of the carriage, dangling around.

Yao Guangxiao is very persistent.

Coming out of the house, Zhu Di listened to Yao Guangxiao talk about the army, tossing for half an hour, and still talking.

Not to mention the rest, seeing that the sun has set in the west, Zhu Gaoxu's irritability is exposed, and he is crooked when Ge Cheng finds out.

Zhu Di knew what to expect, and turned around to leave.

"Master doesn't need to say it!" Zhu Di shook his head and waved his hand, "This king knows that the master is kind. I am the Prince of Daming and His Majesty's fourth uncle, how can I do something rebellious, the court has not done anything to the Yan Palace, and it can't be a big mistake. ”

Seeing Zhu Di like this, the old monk knew that persuasion was useless, so he sighed lightly: "The prince is loyal to the court, but he is confused. ”

The mountain wind blew his robe, the carriage drove towards Beiping City, and Cheng Yuan drove intently.

Zhu Di glanced at him, and after a while, he glanced at him again, the carriage moved forward steadily, Cheng Yuan turned his head, and blinked innocently: "Is there something wrong with the prince?" ”

This kid, knowing what he wanted to ask him, was halfway there, and he was still pretending to be confused here.

Yao Guangxiao's words just now meant something in his heart, since His Majesty prevented him from entering Beijing, Zhu Di didn't think about it with insomnia every night.

persuaded him to raise troops, once he heard the wind in his ears, and the second time he had a tilt in his heart, and if he was too many times, he would be shaken, and Yao Guangxiao had been instilling this army since the 25th year of Hongwu.

But Zhu Di is like an old turtle, retracting from time to time, and this time King Zhou's matter is a small fuse.

"Boy, this king asks you, what do you think of what the master said?" Zhu Di asked him bluntly.

Cheng Yuan scratched his nose and continued to drive the carriage: "I think what the prince said is right." ”

Zhu Di: "......"

Sigh! The carriage stopped suddenly, and the county lord of An Cheng was shaken violently, only to hear Cheng Yuan's voice outside.

"Lord Wang, it's almost autumn, the sweet potatoes in the other garden, I can't be busy alone, those vegetable heads are old and useless, borrow a few soldiers from you?"

Good boy, and put forward small conditions and requirements with yourself? immediately agreed: "Let everyone go then, and I will help you, you hurry up?" ”

Cheng Yuan was satisfied, and his few acres of sweet potato labor were successfully solved, and then he began to analyze.

"Discuss the matter of King Zhou's sin with the court, I have the same idea as the master, the prince can only boldly intercede and talk about your uncle and nephew's affection.

As for the matter of raising troops, the prince knows what the first emperor did. Cheng Yuan threw the question to Zhu Di.

"Slow to be king, build high walls, and accumulate grain." Zhu Di blurted out.

Cheng Yuan nodded, he must raise troops, but if he dares to raise troops without preparing anything, he is looking for death.

"I don't persuade the prince to raise troops, but the intention of the court to cut the feudal domain has been clear, although the prince is unwilling to raise troops, he should also be prepared!

The princess, the prince, the princess, and the unborn little prince and grandson, the county lord of Ancheng and the county lord of Xianning, the two brothers of the king of Gaoyang county, and the county lord of Changning. In the future, they will be exiled with the prince and suffer crimes.

What I mean is that we must not have the intention of harming others, and we must have the intention of guarding against others, and it is beneficial for us to prepare early. ”

Cheng Yuan's words were the same as Zhu Di's thoughts, although he didn't dare to raise troops to rebel in the Yan Palace, he didn't want to wait for the imperial court to come to the end.

So he asked, "What do you think we should do?" ”

The two words of us, Cheng Yuan's heart jumped, which means that he and Yan Wangfu will be a group of people on the same boat in the future.

Unless the ship is wrecked and people die, they are tied together until they die.

"While hoarding grain, building a wall, and seeing the right time to be the king." After Cheng Yuan finished speaking, he looked at Zhu Di.

The mountain breeze was blowing, Zhu Di felt that his blood was boiling, and he said calmly: "If the other vassal kings are fine, this king will stop." If, as you say, the kings are afflicted, then we will raise an army and make trouble! ”

"Deal!" Cheng Yuan and Zhu Di high-fived and swore an oath, and the carriage drove towards Beiping City.

The carriage was galloping, Zhu Di felt that something broke out of the ground in his heart, and the rise was fierce, and he subconsciously looked at Cheng Yuan.

"I believe you." After Zhu Di finished speaking, he turned his head and looked into the distance.

Back at the Yanwang Mansion, Ge Cheng came to the door to greet him, Cheng Yuan jumped down from the carriage and lifted the curtain: "County Lord, it's here." ”

"The county lord is back." Ge Cheng looked at the two of them, and he looked like he understood.

Then he walked to the vegetable farmer and wanted to ask carefully.

An Cheng looked at Ge Cheng, his thin lips opened lightly, and said with a smile: "Ge Changshi, I have something to look for you, please come with me." ”

Ge Cheng is also a man, and when he saw the delicate county lord talking to him softly, his heart couldn't help but ripple.

But he was a little hesitant, he originally wanted to interrogate the vegetable farmers who followed Cheng Yuan, but the county lord had something to do with him, so he couldn't delay.

The brain follows the eyes.

The legs follow the heart.

After a short time, Zhu Di followed Cheng Yuan to the residence of the other garden and helped Zhu Di remove his mask with water and oil.

Cheng Yuan said: "The prince is here to wait for me for a while, and I will bring the king of Gaoyang County over to unmask him." ”

Cheng Yuan is right, delicate women are always attractive, such as Ge Changshi, who is following him at the moment, with a smile on his face.

Of course she didn't really have something, even if she did, she wouldn't look for Ge Cheng, and now in order to help her father return home, she did what Cheng Yuan told her.

Ge Cheng walked to the building, and a few steps later was the small pavilion of the two county lords, what was the matter with him.

An Cheng suddenly spoke: "In a few days, the weather will be cold, and it will be convenient for the sweet potatoes in the other garden to be arranged by people." ”

Ge Cheng said: "It turned out that this was the case, Lord Lao told me, and I will arrange it." ”

After thinking about it for a while, Ge Cheng had already made up the relationship between the county lord and Cheng Yuan that could not be known to others, and the preconceived idea of becoming the county lord felt sorry for his lover.

Xianning, who was standing in the pavilion, heard the conversation between An Cheng and Ge Changshi, and the angry little silver teeth clenched together.

The mother concubine and her brothers always said that they didn't learn from An Cheng, and she wanted to prove to them that she was smarter and more lovable than An Cheng.

"Hmph, An Cheng, I also said that you have nothing to do with Cheng Yuan, I caught it, I want to decide your man." Xianning went downstairs in a fancy.

Seeing Xianning coming, Ge Cheng saluted and said, "Lord Ancheng, I'll go and arrange the things in the front yard first." ”

An Cheng nodded: "Yes." ”

Xianning glanced at An Cheng resentfully, and then said in a strange manner: "Hmph, these dog things in the palace, what kind of decoction did you An Cheng pour into them." ”

An Cheng glanced at her and knew that her mother was pampered with her, she didn't study well, and she didn't like to be a female worker, so she always compared herself with herself, so she ignored it and turned around and went upstairs.

No one responded...... Xian Ning stomped her feet angrily, turned to leave, she was going to go to the mother to complain.

In the study, Princess Yan saw Zhu Di coming back, stepped forward and said, "Lord Wang, Mr. Cheng." ”

Cheng Yuan nodded.

The two of them today were on the issue of further arranging food and weapons, and no one thought that they had not even sat down to start.

There was a coquettish voice outside the door: "Mother~"

Cheng Yuan and Zhu Di looked at it, Xianning was dressed like a peacock, flew in, and gently shook Princess Yan's arm with her bumpy figure: "Mother, you are so eccentric, An Cheng can go out, but I can't go." ”

Zhu Di's eyes were full of smiles, and he looked at his daughter dotingly: "Xianning, find someone to accompany you out another day." ”

"No, I want to be a steward to accompany me, and An Cheng is a steward to drive the horse." After speaking, he looked at Zhu Di coquettishly.

I had something to do when I went out today, but this girl didn't know, Zhu Di was busy discussing business, so she said: "Okay, I agreed, I'll take you another day." ”

Princess Yan was disgusted, but she didn't really scold her baby daughter, and said with a smile: "You're not as good as your sister, okay, your father agreed, go down." ”

Cheng Yuan had a bitter face, and when he saw this flamboyant peacock, his head was big.

"Cheng Steward ~ What are you doing, you look unhappy." Xianning glared at him with her little eyes.

He didn't want to go, he just wanted to be strong. With her watery eyes, everyone looked affectionate, and successfully made Zhu Di and his family agree.

Only then did she carry her skirt and leave proudly, she liked to compete with An Cheng and make An Cheng miserable.

Zhu Neng closed all the doors and windows and stood outside to guard them.

Study room.

"Princess, this is the case, we need you to cooperate with us and prepare for the Yan Palace." Cheng Yuan said.

Xu is a tiger girl who is a general, and she is also very supportive of Zhu Di, she heard about King Zhou, and she is also very smart to see the beginning and the end.

Now she is just dealing with saving her life and making a defense for Yanwang Mansion, so she naturally listens to Zhu Di.

All of Zhu Di's instructions, she unconditionally trusts and supports.

Zhu Di said calmly: "The palace lacks weapons and crossbows at the moment, Ge Cheng and they monitor the king every day, what should I do?" ”

Cheng Yuan said: "I have already thought of a countermeasure for this matter. ”

"Mr. Cheng, please speak."
