Chapter Forty-Nine: Sadness is Always a Parting Day

"Bell...... Clang...... Bell ......"

On the fifth day of October in the first year of Taichang, as the morning bell rang, the first person to walk out of the palace gate was not Zhu Youzhen, who was about to set off, but Zhu Youxiao.

He didn't fall asleep until the hour of his son last night, but when he thought that Zhu Youzhen was going to leave today, he just slept for more than two hours in a hurry and got up in his regular clothes.

The palace maids and eunuchs of the Qianqing Palace were busy for a while, and finally drove at seven o'clock in the morning and moved Zhu Youxiao's chariot to the gate of the East Palace.

When Zhu Youxiao arrived at the gate of the East Palace, nearly 200 truckloads of silver taels and luggage had already departed, and only Zhu Youzhen was still having breakfast in the Miaoqin Palace.

Without alarming anyone, Zhu Youxiao walked into the palace and cautiously walked towards the palace.

Cao Huachun, Wang Chengen and others at the door were startled when they saw Zhu Youxiao coming in, and hurriedly prepared to salute.

It's a pity that their movements were interrupted by Zhu Youxiao's raised hand, and Zhu Youxiao also walked behind Zhu Youjian, looked at the three meats, two vegetables and one soup on the table, and smiled slightly:

"So much, are you done eating?"

"Huh?" Hearing the familiar voice, Zhu Youzhen turned his head, and immediately looked at the good imperial brother, almost without a mouthful of soup.

Hurriedly swallowing the food in his mouth, Zhu Youzhen got up and moved away from the stool:

"Brother Huang."

"Brother Huang again?" Zhu Youxiao's eyes suddenly became resentful.

He can be regarded as a good brother who can see it, an elder brother when he has something, and an imperial brother when he is fine.

"Brother sit." Zhu Youzhen was broken, showing an embarrassed smile, and couldn't help but think about how the imperial brother walked without sound.

"I'll see you off." Zhu Youxiao sat on the chair, pulled out the chair next to him, and motioned for Zhu Youzhen to sit down.

However, in the spirit of carpenter's habit, he knocked on the chair, frowned slightly, and said:

"This chair is made of good wood, but it's too old, I'll make you some furniture in a while, and replace all the furniture in the palace."

"Make a set of furniture? That's a bit time-consuming, isn't it? Zhu Youzhen buried his head in the soup, but the good royal brother smiled dotingly:

"Since ancient times, the elder brother has doted on the younger brother, what is there to waste some time?"

You're so interested, if the official finds out, you're going to impeach me again......

Looking at the good royal brother who was smiling very happily, Zhu Youzhen shrunk his neck, and at this time, Lu Wenzhao also walked to the gate of the Qinqin Palace.

Seeing this, Wang Chengen slowly saluted and said:

"Your Highness, the things have been sent out of the Xuanwu Gate, and you can drive them."

"So fast?" Zhu Youzhen responded while looking at the good imperial brother.

Zhu Youxiao was a little regretful, but he still grabbed Zhu Youzhen's hand and stood up, then untied his coat, draped it behind Zhu Youzhen's back, and after helping him tie his coat, he tried the tightness:

"My brother went to Changping, and I left the hard work to Cheng En and Yang Lian to do, remember to go back to the palace once a month, and ask Cheng En to tell Zhongxian if you don't have anything, and my brother will add it for you."

"I don't lack anything, that is, my brother is in the court, and when he is in the court, don't be like the imperial history and the officials, just don't be in good health."

Zhu Youzhen had mixed feelings in his heart, and also instructed the good imperial brother.

It's just that after his instructions were heard by Zhu Youxiao, he couldn't help but chuckle:

"I am the Son of Heaven and the emperor, if the officials and imperial historians are angry with me, they just ask someone to drag them out to play the board."

"Aren't they proud to be beaten? Beat their butts to bloom, and see if they are still proud. ”

Zhu Youxiao's youthful character is fully revealed, and this approach is that Zhu Youzhen thinks of that picture and wants to laugh a little

"Alright, let's go."

Tie up his robe, Zhu Youxiao took Zhu Youzhen's hand and walked side by side towards the outside of the palace.

Seeing this, several little eunuchs standing at the door hurriedly raised their Luo Gai umbrellas, and Zhu Youxiao found that after such a while, the first snow was falling in the sky.

He looked sideways at Zhu Youzhen and said, "It's snowing, why don't you wait for the beginning of spring before going?" ”

"......" Hearing this, Zhu Youzhen was speechless.

Now it is said that the snow is waiting for the beginning of spring, and when the spring is opened, it is inevitable to say that the rain is heavy, waiting for the summer solstice.

The summer solstice has arrived, and it must be said that the heat is unbearable, waiting for the autumn equinox.

After coming and going like this, a year passed in a blur.

"The first snow is not heavy, if I hurry up, I should be able to reach Changping tomorrow."

"The military camp has been built in Changping, my brother doesn't have to worry about where I live, the kitchen in the East Palace has also been brought, and my brother will see that I will bring an army that can fight next year and hand it over to my brother."

"Hehe......" Seeing Zhu Youzhen's appearance of inviting merit, Zhu Youxiao laughed:

"In that case, bring it back to me and show it."

As he spoke, Zhu Youxiao's smile slowly solidified again, and then he frowned and held Zhu Youzhen's hand and said:

"Take care, brother."

"Hmm!" Zhu Youzhen responded, and at this moment they also walked to the door of the East Palace.

The four-horse chariot that had been prepared a long time ago was already waiting, and Lu Wenzhao also bowed slightly and said:

"Long live, Your Highness, Xuanwu Gate, and four hundred brocade guards are in charge of escorting, and the three guards of Yulin are already outside the Anding Gate."

"Well......" Seeing Lu Wenzhao say this, Zhu Youxiao did not show joy and sorrow, but just took Zhu Youzhen's hand and got into the chariot, and Wang Chengen and Wei Zhongxian also got into the carriage and drove for the two of them.

Cao Huachun stayed in the palace of Qinqin, and he needed to receive Qi Jin's Zhejiang soldiers and Qin Bangping's white pole soldiers to Changping later.

"Drive!"

Wei Zhongxian and the two shook the reins of their horses, and the chariot began to drive towards the Xuanwu Gate in the north of the palace, and along the way, Zhu Youxiao and Zhu Youzhen talked about many things in his past.

"I remember when Liu Niangniang died, you cried day and night, afraid of being heard by the imperial exam, so you came to my palace."

"At that time, my mother said that if people are sad, it is better to cry naturally, but I think crying is not a good thing, so I coax you."

"But I don't want to go to the old age, when my mother died, I also cried into tears."

Zhu Youxiao said all kinds of things in the past, but Zhu Youzhen felt a little strange in his heart.

Both the Liu family and the Wang family died because of whom, and he knew very well that the words of the good royal brother seemed to be reminiscing about the past, but it was more like counting the hatred of the year.

"If my brother wants to, don't ask someone to set fire to it or poison it."

As soon as Zhu Youzhen spoke, Zhu Youxiao was stunned, because what he said was what he thought in his heart.

As for why Zhu Youzhen was able to guess, it was because in history, Concubine Li Kang was set on fire and not burned to death, and then all party officials should not bully Concubine Li Kang, so there were a lot of scandals in the follow-up.

"What do you see?" Zhu Youxiao frowned tightly and looked at his younger brother.

Seeing this, Zhu Youzhen thought about it in his mind before he spoke:

"In short, my brother doesn't have to worry about it, I will do this thing, during this time, my brother should not give the foreign minister a handle, and should take good care of Concubine Li Kang."

"I promise she won't live long." Zhu Youzhen looked serious, and it was hard to imagine that such words came from the mouth of a ten-year-old child.

If others saw it, they would probably be very frightened, but Zhu Youxiao didn't.

He only felt that his younger brother was willing to avenge himself and could do this kind of thing, which was very touching.

Therefore, he held Zhu Youzhen's hand, and Zhu Youzhen didn't say anything.

It's just that the space between the two of them was interrupted by the stopped chariot in the end.

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Zhu Youjian and didn't say anything, just patted his hand:

"I got out of the car and went to the Wenhua Palace, there was a lot of wind and snow outside, my brother didn't send it, it was not good to get caught the wind and cold."

After that, he walked out of the chariot of seven or eight square meters, and although Zhu Youzhen did not get out of the car, he opened the window and leaned out half of his body.

After watching Zhu Youxiao get out of the car, he turned around and got into the chariot, and then sat back in the chariot with confidence.

"Swing the Wenhua Palace!"

On the step, Wei Zhongxian sang and saluted, and the two cars drove in different directions.

The snow was falling, and the two brothers who were also sitting in the car began to experience the "farthest" distance of their lives for so many years.
