Chapter 517: Lonely ...... Lonely and lonely......
After Zhu Laoqi and Zhu Yu shouted out the last sentence, Zhu Di was so frightened that he squirted out a mouthful of wine.
Isn't this stupid?
Raising Zhu Yunxi is just to add some pressure to Zhu Yunxi, he doesn't really think that he can abolish Zhu Yunxi, right?
Zhu Lao Liu was also frightened by Lao Qi's operation, and hurriedly distanced himself from him.
Zhu Yunwen was shocked, but his heart was full of joy. But after the snickering, the rest is all fear.
Can such a thing be said in public?
After Zhu Yunwen cleaned up his mood, he hurriedly changed to a sincere and frightened expression.
"Uncle Seven, don't hurt me!"
"I don't have any opinion on Zhu Yunxi being the emperor's grandson, and I don't dare to give birth to such a rebellious heart!"
When Zhu Laoqi heard Zhu Yunwen's words, he looked at the expressions of the brothers, and knew that he had shouted this slogan early.
But when he thought of the lack of virtue that Zhu Yunxi had done, he couldn't get angry.
"You are afraid of Zhu Yunxi, but I am not afraid!"
"Since he became the emperor's grandson, has he ever done a personal thing?"
"It's just a matter of bullying outsiders, it's actually bullying our Zhu family!"
"It's just a matter of collecting our land and collecting our taxes, and now we have to cut our usual treatment!"
"Now that my father is still alive, he dares to ravage us like this. When he ascends to the throne in the future, he will not have to arrest us one by one in the capital and put us in a pigsty as pigs! ”
"And take our son as a hostage!"
"Whew!"
"As long as I, Zhu Laoqi, live for one day, I will never let him take my son away from me!"
"You are also the ones who have become fathers, so I will ask you, if Zhu Yunxi asks you to send your son to the capital as a hostage, will you agree!"
Zhu Laoqi's words caused many vassal kings to think deeply, even Zhu Gui and others, who had a good relationship with Zhu Yunxi, also showed a look of struggle on their faces after hearing this.
As for the old sixteenth Zhu Chang, who was born with backbones, he got up from the chair excitedly and supported his seventh brother with chatter.
"Brother Seventh said it well!"
"It's a big deal, it's against his mother, and I will never let Zhu Yunxi succeed!"
When Zhu Gui heard his younger brother's words, he looked at Zhu Chang with disdain. This thing doesn't even have a son, what kind of coaxing is it about?
With Zhu Chang's support, the other princes also followed suit.
"Let's go into the palace to meet our father, we must not let Zhu Yunxi go perverse!"
"Enter the palace!"
"Ask my father to call the shots!"
In the earth-shattering slogan, Lao Qi was almost about to pull the flag and rebel, but fortunately, Zhu Lao Liu pressed the formation.
"Brothers, rest your anger!"
"My father is about to celebrate his birthday, so we can't give my father eye medicine right now. Even if you want to go up, you have to wait until the day of your birthday, in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, as well as in front of overseas vassal kings and envoys, question Zhu Yunxi, and ask your father to call the shots for us! ”
When Zhu Di heard Zhu Laoliu's words, a hint of a playful smile appeared on his face.
He suddenly discovered that not only his eldest nephew Zhu Yunwen had grown up, but even his younger brothers, who he had always looked down on, had become more scheming and worse.
Zhu Laoqi originally wanted to oppose it, but as soon as he heard Zhu Laoliu's words, his face was full of excitement.
"Brother Sixth is right!"
"Since Zhu Yunxi doesn't want to be decent, then let's make him not decent!"
Next, everyone discussed the specific details and formed an offensive and defensive alliance.
In order to prevent someone from telling the truth, Zhu Laoliu deliberately squeezed Zhu Gui and others for a few words.
"Zhu Gui, I know you have a good relationship with Zhu Yunxi."
"But the sixth brother has to make it clear to you, you are now the vassal king, he is now the emperor's grandson, and he is the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty."
"You have to stand on the side of our vassal king, and you can't do that kind of thing!"
"Where did the sixth brother say, how could I not know my identity?"
Just when Zhu Gui didn't know how to end the battle, the hanging flower door of the Chu Palace's mansion was opened with a spear.
"Zhu Gui!"
"Come home with me right away!"
When Zhu Gui heard this, he hurriedly changed his face in fright. When he saw his mother-in-law wearing a samurai uniform, carrying a red tassel gun in her hand, standing in the courtyard with a heroic posture and graceful bearing, his little heart was even more thumping.
Right!
That's the smell!
The reason why we agreed to marry you back then was because we liked your tune?
Zhu Gui hurriedly came up with a smile on his face.
"Aifei!"
"Which gust of wind brought you here?"
Xu Miaoqing snorted coldly when she heard this.
"You forgot our agreement?"
"Didn't we say today that we were going to see the concubine in the palace?"
When Zhu Gui heard this, he hurriedly nodded.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
"Look at my brain, why did I forget such an important thing?"
"The fourth brother, the sixth brother, and the seventh brother can't help it, I'll go to the palace with my daughter-in-law to visit the concubine first!"
Hearing this, Zhu Chun hurriedly got up and said.
"Wait for me!"
"I'll go with you to see the concubine too!"
Zhu Lao Liu watched Zhu Chun and Zhu Gui flee and leave, and directly expelled the two from the sect in his heart.
"These two pieces of waste!"
"One is afraid of guilt, the other is not assertive, and at first glance it is not a person who has achieved great things!"
"Now that these two pieces of waste are gone, let's get down to business!"
"On the day of the birthday, the Lone Society will send guards into the city and arrange them in the ...... in advance."
When Zhu Di heard this, he only felt like a nail had grown under his buttocks, which made him uncomfortable to sit on.
But when you think of such a big thing, you don't listen to it, what if you are messed up by these few wastes?
Therefore, he could only listen patiently, and had to add to them before the huge omission.
"The Five Cities Terracotta Division is also very important......"
"These people don't belong to Jinyiwei, nor do they belong to Dongchang, many of them have been promoted in recent years, and their foundation is still shallow, as long as they spend a little bit of effort to ......"
Zhu Laoqi slapped his thigh excitedly when he heard this.
"That's right!"
"Why did you forget about this!"
"I'll arrange this when I go back alone......"
Zhu Di saw that Lao Qi accepted his suggestion, and hurriedly wrote a few words on the table.
"The flag is also very important."
"You're not rebelling, you're just protecting yourself!"
Zhu Laoqi automatically ignored the word "you", stared at the table with two big eyes, and saw a few words written on the table with wine.
"Fengtian Fazu, Kuang Zheng Zheng!"
"That's a good slogan!"
"Let's use this slogan for this event!"
Zhu Di helped them revise a few more details, and then left the scene early.
He was not optimistic about this matter made by King Qi, but he was afraid that he would not even make a splash, so he helped him increase his momentum a little.
Later, he saw that he really had no one available, so he secretly gave him a list and asked him to find someone according to the list.
When Zhu Di returned to the palace, he threw himself into the water tank, chilled it for an hour, and then went into the charcoal room to roast the fire, and tossed himself to get sick.
In fact, he didn't want to suffer this crime, but who let the old man not get the lake good?
As long as the old man hears that he is sick, he will definitely send the imperial doctor in the palace to come to diagnose and treat him, and if he is not sick, he will be guilty of defrauding the king at that time.
Although Zhu Di was sick, the tandem of King Qi and others did not stop.
While contacting his younger brothers, King Qi asked for the support of the nobles.
The person he thought he was doing didn't know it, but he didn't know that Zhu Yunxi had already known about their movements through Jinyiwei and Dongchang.
It's just that Zhu Yunxi didn't take it seriously at all, compared to King Qi's provocation, he was more concerned about the reactions of several other Wang Uncles, and which Wang Uncle would come to warn him and let him be careful......
Acting royal mansion.
On the way back home with Xu Miaoqing, Zhu Gui learned Zhu Yunxi's true intentions from Xu Miaoqing's mouth.
What he was most worried about was his son, since Zhu Yunxi didn't want to detain his son as a hostage, he didn't care about other things.
"Your Highness, what did you just discuss in the Chu Palace?"
"The concubine is far away, and she can hear the noise inside, shouting what Kuang Zheng, Fengtian ......"
Hearing this, Zhu Gui hurriedly diverted the topic.
"Nothing!"
"It's just that King Qi is drunk and reciting his father's Emperor Ming ancestral teachings."
Xu Miaoqing's face was bitter when she heard this, she didn't like endorsements like Xu Miaojin.
If it's other books and don't memorize them, it doesn't matter, but the Emperor Ming Zuxun requires all the Zhu family members to memorize it!
"The king of Qi is obedient to Ha......"
Zhu Gui listened to his daughter-in-law's yin and yang weirdness, and did not get angry at all, but echoed.
"Not really!"
"Lone has only memorized half of it now, and he can memorize it all, which stunned us!"
Xu Miaoqing knew that His Royal Highness didn't like to read, and said with a lot of distress when he heard the words.
"Alas!"
"I can't blame His Royal Highness for not being careful, it's really my father who is too hardworking, since we got married to now, the emperor's ancestral training has changed no less than three times, and no one can remember it!"
The couple secretly complained about playing with Lao Zhu, glanced at each other weakly, and then hid in the carriage and giggled.
However, after laughing, Zhu Gui remembered his friendship with Zhu Yunxi, and his heart was infinitely melancholy.
"Your Highness has something on your mind?"
"Alas......"
"Miaoqing, you went to visit the third sister today, how did the third sister treat you?"
"Very good!"
"The imperial grandson also deliberately took time out of his busy schedule to accompany his concubines to dinner......"
"Your Highness, why are you suddenly asking this?"
"I ......"
Zhu Gui shook his head helplessly, touched Xu Miaoqing's stomach with his hand, felt the new life being born inside, and sighed infinitely.
"After all, it's not as carefree as when I was a child......"
Also suffering from Zhu Gui is Zhu Zhi, who is also hesitant to send a letter to Zhu Yunxi.
Although he is a feudal king, he should stand with the seventh brother. But I have to say that Zhu Yunxi really didn't treat him, Uncle Wang, that when he was not a feudal lord, he gave himself a lot of valuable dry shares, so that he didn't have to do anything every year, and he had more than 100,000 taels of silver in his account.
This is much more than the prince Yulu given by my father, and more than other uncles who scrape the ground.
What's more important is that you can still have a good reputation, as long as you don't bully men and women in the fiefdom, rob people and women, you are basically a proper virtuous king!
In addition, he likes to judge and break eucalyptus, and now the people in the fiefdom have called themselves Zhu Qingtian!
However, he inherited such a great affection from his eldest nephew, but he wanted to backstab his eldest nephew with Seventh Brother and them, which made his conscience very disturbed.
Zhu Zhi struggled for two or three days, until the day before his father's birthday, he couldn't bear the torment in his heart, and ordered someone to prepare a very inconspicuous carriage.
"Beigong!"
"No!"
Zhu Zhi took a carriage to the North Palace, and before he got off the car, he saw a familiar back.
"Thirteenth brother?"
Zhu Gui looked back when he heard the movement, and his face showed surprise.
"You're here too?"
Zhu Zhi smiled bitterly.
"If you don't come, you can't get through the ...... of conscience"
Zhu Gui laughed when he heard this.
"Me too!"
"Since you're here too, let's go find the eldest nephew for a drink together!"
"Good!"
The two met in the North Palace, as if they had given each other a shot in the arm, which made both of them feel that they were not alone.
When Zhu Yunxi heard the report from his subordinates, he immediately put down the piece that was being reviewed, and trotted out all the way to greet the two uncles.
Zhu Yunxi stood on the top of the imperial steps, and the two brothers Zhu Gui and Zhu Zhi stood under the imperial steps, and the three of them glanced at each other, as if the invisible wall in their hearts had collapsed in an instant, and there was no barrier between them.
When the two saw that Zhu Yunxi still had ink spots on his hands and face, his shoes were only pulling, and half of his heels were still exposed, there was nothing else in their hearts except for emotion.
Zhu Yunxi is still the same Zhu Yunxi back then, and he has not changed because he became the emperor's grandson......
"Wang De!"
"Immediately order the dining room to prepare a banquet, and then go to the palace's wine and vinegar noodle bureau to pick a few jars of 20-year-old wine!"
"Today, I want to stay with the two uncles without getting drunk and returning!"
Zhu Gui knew that Zhu Yunxi didn't drink, not that he didn't know how to drink, but he simply didn't like to drink.
Today, Zhu Yunxi made an exception and took the initiative to drink, which can be regarded as giving him enough face.
"The imperial grandson dares to say such bold words, if he stands up and goes out, wouldn't he be too sorry for the imperial grandson's intentions?"
"Let's not steal my father's wine, let's go to Lone's palace, there are a few jars of wine from the Western Regions there, just take it over and taste it together!"
Zhu Zhi also hurried to make fun when he heard this.
"I also have a few jars of sake there, which were paid by Goryeo merchants, saying that this is very popular in the Wa Kingdom."
"Lone has never been willing to drink, just take it over and let the eldest nephew taste it!"
Zhu Gui glanced at Zhu Zhi with disdain when he heard this.
"Are you stupid!"
"The two little kings of the Wa Kingdom have entered Beijing, can they still miss the gifts of the imperial grandson?"
"Besides, the eldest nephew's fleet is mining miles on the side of the Wa Kingdom, and it is estimated that he may not know how many good wine miles he has hidden here!"
Zhu Yunxi heard Zhu Gui say this, and laughed.
"Uncle Thirteen, you guessed wrong!"
"Now all the overseas feudal kingdoms know what Gu likes, and they know that Gu doesn't like everything except gold and silver."
"Therefore they give nothing but silver and gold, and nothing else!"
Zhu Gui said sourly when he heard this.
"You have a special preference, and Lone wants to have this preference, but no one gives Lone a gift......
The three of them exchanged pleasantries, and then came to the side hall for dinner.
Since the dining room has to stir-fry for a while, a dozen cold cuts and fruits will be served as appetizers first.
After a while, wine, sake, and the fine wine that Lao Zhu had treasured for more than 20 years were all brought up by Wang De.
"Your Highness, you have been too tired in the past few days, and the Imperial Doctor said that it is better not to drink too much......"
When Zhu Yunxi heard the word "hard work", he immediately blushed.
He is indeed a little tired, but he is not involved in national politics, but he is guilty of eating marrow and knowing taste.
Zhu Gui didn't know about this, and he really thought that his eldest nephew was working national affairs day and night.
"Big nephew, you have to pay attention to your body, the eldest brother of the prince just doesn't care for his body, so he ......"
Zhu Yunxi was even more embarrassed when he heard this, and while nodding, he said an inexplicable will to Wang De.
"Message!"
"Close the Miaozhen Palace, let the Miaozhen real person concentrate on praying for the emperor's grandfather!"
When Wang De heard this outrageous will, he laughed so much that his stomach was about to cramp.
His own imperial grandson is too much, obviously he can't control himself, and he even sealed other people's doors!
"No!"
"Slave and maid, this is the decree!"
After Wang De left, Zhu Yunxi raised a glass of wine and saluted Zhu Gui and Zhu Zhi.
"Thank you two uncles for coming to see Lonely!"
"Come!"
"Let's fill this cup!"
After Zhu Gui and Zhu Zhi drank this glass of wine, a trace of hesitation flashed on their faces.
"Eldest nephew, we came to you today to tell you something......
Zhu Yunxi raised his hand to interrupt Zhu Gui's words.
"Uncle Thirteen, you can come to see Gu, Gu is already very happy."
"There are some things that don't need to be said explicitly, loneliness will not make it difficult for you to do, and loneliness also believes that you will not make it difficult for loneliness!"
"You have your position, I have my decision."
"You and I are a monarch in the court, and you and I are an uncle and nephew in the temple, but in private I have always been your friend!"
"Friends who can share weal and woe and prosperity together!"
When Zhu Yunxi said this, he suddenly became sad.
"Lonely...... Lone is lonely, Lone doesn't want to be lonely......"
After Zhu Yunxi said this, he poured himself a glass of wine, raised his head and poured it down.
Seeing this, Zhu Gui and Zhu Zhi also filled their mouths, stood up and saluted Zhu Yunxi with wine glasses in both hands, and then drank down.
"Lonely, too!"
