"Ugh."

At night, at the table of the East Palace.

Looking at a large table of delicacies, Zhang had no appetite, sighed and put down his chopsticks.

"Have a good meal, and sigh again!"

Zhu Chubby, who was eating happily on the side, asked curiously.

Glancing at Zhu Zhangui, who was enjoying dinner under the maid's service, Zhang said helplessly: "Who else can it be?" It's not for these two stinky boys in your family. ”

Zhu Zhangui, who was eating, looked up suspiciously.

"What's wrong with me? Am I fine? ”

"Hmph, it's okay, so much money, you were fooled away by your grandfather, and your second uncle wanted to leave, the money in the treasury may have been moved now, and you actually said it was okay."

The more Zhang spoke, the more angry he became, and he pointed to the empty seat next to him.

"And your eldest brother, I haven't seen anyone for two or three days since the accident on the day of the fight, and I don't know what I'm busy with every day."

Zhu Chubby, who had eaten a bowl of rice, hurriedly interjected when the maid was serving rice.

"By the way, I almost forgot if your mother didn't mention it. When you went to Jiming Temple, did you meet your eldest brother? ”

Zhu Zhangui shrugged.

"I didn't see it, I guess I'm still busy with that girl's business."

"I really don't understand, what's wrong with that girl surnamed Sun. If you want to have no looks, you have no figure, and your temper is so stinky, you can turn the boss into a fascination. ”

"Smack!"

Zhang raised his hand and patted Zhu Zhangui, "How can you speak, that is the girl that your eldest brother has taken a fancy to, and she saved your grandfather's life, and she is likely to become your sister-in-law, you give me a careful speech, don't be big or small." ”

After teaching Zhu Zhangui a lesson, Zhang glanced at Hu Shanxiang, who was serving beside Zhu Zhangui.

"Also, the show girl has been selected almost during this time, when are you going to take a look and pick a pleasing one."

When Hu Shanxiang heard about the selection of concubines, his expression did not change, and he still served Zhu Zhangui honestly.

"I'm casual, I'm not as picky as my eldest brother, as long as I am beautiful, have a good figure, have the same personality as my mother, be gentle and kind, and be considerate and generous."

"As for feelings or anything, I don't care, I believe in love over time!"

"Whew, that's good."

The son's request Zhang is very satisfied, marry a wife and have children, who to marry is not to marry.

When she married Zhu Fatpang, she didn't have a so-called relationship, and now she hasn't had a child for half her life.

Zhu Chupang doesn't care about his son's draft, Zhang is in charge of this matter, and he will definitely pick out the best.

In addition to money, what he is more concerned about is the only military force in the Prince's Mansion, the 5,000 guards in Zhu Zhangui's hands.

Waving his hand to let the waiting maid withdraw, Zhu Chupang looked at Zhu Zhangui with a serious expression.

"Today, your second uncle mentioned something to me, saying that the old man is going out with your 5,000 escorts on this northern expedition. Kindly, let me remind you to prepare early, don't set off when the time comes, you have nothing to prepare, and the court will have to bear it. ”

Zhang was a little nervous when he heard this, and hurriedly told Zhu Zhangui.

"Yes, son, the team that our Prince's Mansion can handle, just the one you have, you have to be prepared, don't go to the battlefield and be pitted by your second and third uncles."

Zhu Zhangui nodded seriously.

"Daddy, don't worry! I went to the battlefield at the age of nine, and I experienced dozens of wars, big and small, and the second and third uncles wanted to trap me, it was not that simple. ”

For this, Zhu Fatpang is still more relieved, and Zheng He also told him about the things that his second son did when he went to sea.

Although he felt that his son had done too much in the Fanbang vassal country, it had already happened, and it was useless for him to say anything more, so he could only wait for the future to educate him well and prevent this kind of slaughter of the city and the destruction of the country from happening again.

"If you have any needs for armor and weapons, you can go to the Ministry of Industry, the army in your hand has an actual quota, plus you have contributed so much money to the imperial court, it is no problem to get weapons and equipment first. It's just that there may be some trouble in terms of firearms, and you have the opportunity to ask the old man for this point, and with his love for you, he can still agree to this little thing. ”

Hearing his father's explanation, Zhu Zhangui couldn't help but smile and said, "Dad, aren't you against the Northern Expedition?" ”

Zhu Chupang helplessly threw the chopsticks on the table, and said angrily: "I'm like this, how can I object?" I even suspect now that this assassination was deliberately arranged by the old man, with the aim of kicking me aside and not stopping him from marching north. ”

Zhu Zhangui held back a smile and leaned into Zhu Chubby's ear.

"Daddy... Be confident, and take your doubts out. ”

Zhu Chubby's eyes widened, grabbed Zhu Zhangui's collar, and asked in a low voice, "You already knew, didn't you?" ”

Zhu Zhangui nodded.

"I knew that night, otherwise why do you think I would have been confined by the old man for two months. If it weren't for the second uncle's toss, I might still be locked up in the mansion now. ”

After getting the confirmation, Zhu Chupang sighed helplessly.

"Alas, you grandfather, for your own plan, you really do everything, and play our three brothers like monkeys all day long, is it interesting."

The more he talked, the more depressed he became, Zhu Fatpang finally stood up angrily and stood up directly, turned around and left without eating.

"Leave your dad alone, let him be upset! The four of you have 800 hearts and eyes, and you are not tired of calculating and calculating all day long. ”

Zhang didn't care about her husband's departure at all, and beckoned Zhu Zhangui to continue eating.

Zhu Zhangui didn't care about his depressed father, got up and sat down next to Zhang's side, and flattered his shoulder: "Mother, are you busy tomorrow?" ”

"Tell me about it!"

Zhu Zhangui suddenly came to this scene, and Zhang understood that this kid had something to ask for himself.

"Well, I have a shop for women, and it's going to open tomorrow. I would like to ask you to do me a favor tomorrow and invite the ladies of the various provinces to visit and help my son with the baseball field. ”

"It's for women."

Zhang's interest suddenly came.

"What's on sale? If it's average, I'm afraid they will look at their mother's face once, and it won't be easy to say in the future. ”

Zhu Zhangui smiled confidently.

"Don't worry, my son is confident that they have been there once, and they will definitely go again."

Seeing that his son was so confident, Zhang nodded.

"Okay, I'll send someone to inform you tomorrow morning, and I'll bring someone over in the morning."

After the Zhang family agreed, he didn't forget to tell Zhu Zhangui that he must do a good job in terms of security, after all, all the people who went were female dependents, and if something happened, she, the crown princess, couldn't get over it.

"By the way, son, is your shopkeeper selling rouge gouache?"

After chatting about helping, Zhang became curious about what his son's store was selling.

Zhu Zhangui smiled and said mysteriously: "It's not rouge gouache, but it's all good things." ”

Seeing that Zhang was still going to ask, Zhu Zhangui hurriedly interrupted: "Don't ask, I can't talk about this thing as a man, and you will know how useful those things are to you women." ”
