Chapter 123: The Son of the World is mad
Zhu Gaochu will set off for Yongping tomorrow, he has just returned from the camp outside the city, and the camp has begun to prepare for departure, considering that there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of Wu Gao on the opposite side, Zhu Gaoxu will not use 3,000 soldiers and horses to attack, so he only plans to take 2,000 elites, and another 1,000 recruits and surrendered soldiers continue to train in the camp.
What he said sounded good, and he would fight for King Yan, but of course he didn't want to.
Those left behind were Xu Xiang's left battalion, and the middle battalion and the right battalion of Veda set off with him.
Before going out, he felt that he wanted to go to see his mother, Princess Xu, so he changed his clothes in the house.
Sun Ruonan with two rings in helping Zhu Gaoxu change into a brown dragon suit, which is the Ming Dynasty clan prince, the county king unique to the regular clothes, the costume is a round neck (also known as the plate collar), the right side, narrow sleeves, straight, the lower body on both sides of the opening, outward two folds, put the pendulum, the texture is satin, the decoration adopts the traditional Chinese gold weaving process in the gold thread weaving process.
It's actually still hot to wear a dragon suit in this kind of weather, but there is no way, this is already one of the coolest clothes in the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Gaoxu himself was tall and a little afraid of heat, so he took off the white silk lining inside, so that the whole person was much more comfortable.
After going out, Zhu Gaoxu greeted the generals, got on their horses one after another, and went to Yanwang's mansion.
Riding on horseback, Zhu Gaoxu thought of the news he had recently gotten, and the eunuch Huang Yan told him that Jing Qing recommended his daughter Jing Shu to King Yan as the princess, and King Yan was considering it.
Zhu Gaoxu often sent some treasures and money to Huang Yan, but also to maintain a good relationship with Huang Yan, and later gave ginseng to his mother, the relationship between the two has grown by leaps and bounds, the original history Huang Yan and Zhu Gaosui have the best relationship, which will Zhu Gaoxu find that Huang Yan seems to be getting better and better with himself.
He also figured it out, the original history must have been that Zhu Gaosui often gave gifts to Huang Yan, but now that Zhu Gaoxu is more generous, Huang Yan has obviously begun to deviate from history.
But Zhu Gaoxu hopes that he will follow Zhu Gaosui in the future, as in history.
Huang Yan recently revealed the news to him that King Yan considered marrying Jing Shu to Zhu Gaosui, but he was afraid that Jing Qing would be unhappy.
Coupled with the recent intensive fighting, this matter is still under consideration.
Of course, Zhu Gaoxu knew what Jing Qing meant, this guy was sowing discord.
first recommended his daughter to the prince, and then asked his daughter to guide Zhu Gaoxu, isn't this an obvious provocation?
Before, Zhu Gaoxu only paid attention to Yao Guangxiao, but he didn't expect Jingqing on Jianwen's side to be a talent.
He actually pretended to surrender, and then quietly engaged in underground activities here.
But Jing Qing is a civil official, so he really doesn't know anything, what is the use of doing this?
If he assassinates Yao Guangxiao, it may have a little impact on King Yan.
But Zhu Gaochu can't remind him to do this now, because Zhu Gaochu and Yao Yao Guangxiao are the people of the same boat, no matter how unhappy Yao Guangxiao's group is, they must endure it.
Zhente Niang is tired, there is a war outside, and there are thieves inside, Zhu Gaoxu scolded secretly, couldn't help wiping the sweat on his forehead, facing the sun overhead, and speeding up to Yanwang's mansion.
He likes to fight happily, what is dissatisfied, and he sees the high and low on the battlefield, but this world is like this, people who can only fight and don't understand politics and conspiracy will inevitably die a miserable death, such as Han Xin.
"Driving" Zhu Gaoxu seemed to want to vent a little, hurry up, and the speed of the horse is getting faster and faster.
The speed of the shadow was extremely fast, and as soon as he accelerated, the people behind him couldn't catch up, and everyone was shouting: "Your Highness--"
Zhu Gaoxu didn't care, and ran to the front of King Yan's mansion in one breath.
At the same time as Zhu Gaoxu reined in his horse, several soldiers in front of the palace came over to hold his horse.
"Meet the King of Gaoyang." The guards are very respectful, mainly because Zhu Gaoxu has become famous recently.
Zhu Gaoxu gave them the horses, and the other side didn't say anything, proving that there was nothing in the palace, and if King Yan was plotting something, he would ask Zhu Gaoxu to wait and report it.
At this time, he swept his eyes and found that there were two sedan chairs parked on the south side outside the palace gate, which was far away from the gate, because there was a shady place there.
Is this a female dependent coming to the palace?
"Who do those two palanquins belong to?" Zhu Gaoxu asked casually.
"Back to the king of Gaoyang County, he is the daughter of Xu Zhenren and Jing Yushi."
"Oh." Zhu Gaoxu answered, and walked in quickly: "Don't let this king's horse bask in the sun." ”
"No." A voice came from behind him.
Xu Zhenren is Xu Miaojin, Zhu Gaoxu's third aunt, also known as his aunt.
Zhu Gaoxu has seen Xu Miaojin, and also seen Jing Shu, Jing Shu is known as the first beauty in Beiping, mainly a little gentle and sweet, in line with the aesthetics of the Ming Dynasty, and Xu Miaojin is not smiling, with a straight face every day, and she is the wife and sister of King Yan, so no one dares to comment on her, in fact, in Zhu Gaoxu's eyes, Xu Miaojin is not worse than Jing Shu no matter how much she looks like her.
Zhu Gaoxu was pondering the two beauties while walking, and suddenly saw several people leaving the palace.
He practiced bow all year round, and his eyesight was far better than ordinary people, and he immediately saw that it was Jin Zhong, Jing Qing and Jing Shu.
Jing Qing and Jin Zhong talked as they walked, with smiles on their faces, and Jing Shu followed silently, probably just meeting King Yan or Princess Yan.
The two sides quickly met, and Jing Qing hurriedly said, "King Gaoyang." ”
"Jing Yushi is good."
Jin Zhong nodded to Zhu Gaoxu, and he didn't bother to call him.
Zhu Gaoxu hugged his fists and said, "Lord Jin." ”
Jing Qing's eyes lit up, and he looked at Jin Zhong and Zhu Gaochu interestingly, he seemed to have discovered a secret, Jin Zhong didn't like Zhu Gaochu very much.
"Jing Yushi, what you just said--" Jin Zhong continued to walk forward, Jing Qing slowed down, and Yu Guang looked at his daughter.
Jing Shu happened to walk in front of Zhu Gaoxu at this time, she bit her lip lightly, her expression was a little shy, she wanted to look at Zhu Gaoxu but didn't dare to look at it.
"It turned out to be Miss Jing." Zhu Gaoxu said with a smile: "I'll just say, when will there be another big beauty in Beiping City, Miss Jing, Gao Xu was rude that day, please don't blame it." ”
Zhu Gaoxu's speech was a little frivolous, but it was also in line with his personality, Jing Shu didn't seem to have any bad feelings, lowered his head and said softly: "It's Jing Shu who is reckless, King Gaoyang don't be surprised." ”
The two exchanged polite words, and Zhu Gaoxu didn't have time to say more to her, hugged his fists, and walked forward quickly.
After walking a few steps, I couldn't help but look back.
Just saw that Jing Shu was also looking back at him, the two looked at each other, brushed, Jing Shu turned her head with a red face, as if she was very flustered.
Zhu Gaoxu disturbed his head, looked up, and found that Jing Qing was also looking back at himself in the distance, and he couldn't help but smile at Jing Qing.
Jing Qing also smiled in return.
"Jing Yushi?" Jin Zhong glanced at Jing Qing dissatisfied.
Jing Qing wants to marry his daughter to the prince, but King Yan wants Gao Sui to marry Jing Shu, today Jing Qing took Jing Shu to see Princess Xu, Princess Xu liked it very much, and also wanted her to marry Gao Sui.
But the prince Zhu Gaochi had long heard of Jingshu's name as the first beauty in Beiping City, and wanted to marry her, and Yao Guangxiao, Jin Zhong and others also felt that the prince should marry Jingshu.
Because Jingqing represents the old and new officials of Hongwu and Jianwen, if the prince gets the support of Jingqing, he will also get a large number of old civil officials in the future.
"King Gaoyang is really mighty." Jing Qing praised.
The corners of Jin Zhong's mouth twitched, he really wanted to give Jing Qing a slap, he was a mighty fart, just a martial artist, and he would rule the world in the future, or rely on us people.
As soon as he spoke, Jing Shu had already followed, and the three of them walked quickly outside the gate of the palace.
Seeing that there were several guards around, Jing Qing smiled and said, "Regarding the little girl, please ask Lord Jin to say a lot of good words." ”
Jin Zhong said lightly: "The prince will personally ask the princess, but if it doesn't work out, we can't guarantee it." ”
After that, he looked at Jing Shu: "Actually, Miss Jing's own opinion is also very important, why didn't you say it when the princess asked you just now?" ”
It turned out that the princess asked Jingshu just now, which one do you want to marry?
But Jing Shu said that it was up to her father and elders to decide.
Princess Xu is also helpless.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Jin Zhong finished speaking, Jing Shu immediately said: "The one just now, is it the king of Gaoyang County?" As she spoke, she raised her head, her eyebrows shining and her eyes shining.
“。。” Jin Zhong's expression suddenly became as ugly as eating.
Jing Qing was secretly amused, but hurriedly said, "Ahem, what did Lord Jin ask you, what are you thinking?" ”
Jing Shu suddenly lowered her head and whispered: "Shizi--- Shizi--- Shizi is a little fatter---"
“。。” Jin Zhong's face turned red, and his expression was full of shame and anger.
"Your Royal Highness--- you've lost a little weight."
“。。” Jing Qing and Jin Zhong looked at each other.
After counting the breaths.
"Hmph" Jin Zhong snorted coldly and walked away, furious.
There were many guards at the gate of the palace, and all the guards had just heard it clearly, and they were expressionless and didn't dare to react.
But the next day, the whole city of Peking spread everywhere.
Jingqing wants to marry a daughter, and the prince wants to marry Jing Shu, but Jing Shu says that the prince is too fat and Zhu Gaosui is too thin.
When the news reached the prince's mansion, Zhu Gaochi was furious, and on the pretext that the maids did not have enough power to fan the fans, he was dragged out and beaten hard, and he was almost killed, and the princess Guo couldn't persuade him.
The person concerned, Zhu Gaoxu, didn't know that he had flown into trouble, and Jing Qing was pulling hatred for him.
He didn't dare to talk to Jing Shu at that time, so he strode away, and after entering the inner courtyard, he saw eunuchs and maids there.
Zhu Gaoxu asked where the concubine was, and a maid came to lead the way.
Another little eunuch glanced at Zhu Gaoxu and ran quickly.
Not long after Zhu Gaoxu left, someone called him in the distance.
When he looked back, it was the eunuch Huang Yan.
The little eunuch just now should have gone to call Huang Yan.
Huang Yan panted and ran here: "The slave maid leads the way for King Gaoyang." Then he waved to the maid.
The maid answered, and turned away.
Zhu Gaoxu walked to a shady place and waved his hand: "It's cooler here, look at you running sweaty." ”
A trace of emotion flashed on Huang Yan's face, only King Gaoyang regarded the slaves and maids as individuals.
Standing in a shady place and resting for a while, Huang Yan kept looking left and right, stood for about half a minute, nodded to Zhu Gaoxu, and the two walked forward again, Huang Yan said in a low voice.
"The princess wants Jing Shu to marry the Third Highness."
"The prince really wants to marry Jingshu."
"Jin Zhong is going to find Yao Guangxiao to persuade King Yan."
"The reason is that Jing Qing represents the civil officials of the Jianwen Department, and in the future, he can get the support of those people."
"Like Fang Xiaoru, Qi Tai, etc., Lian Zining and others are all good friends with Jingqing."
Huang Yan spoke quickly, and finished all the important news in a few words.
Zhu Gaoxu was slightly moved, because it was not easy to get these important news.
