Chapter 116: Chasing Swallows Must Fly High
As a vassal king, there will definitely be no shortage of places to live in Jinling, and since he was shocked at the court meeting, Zhu Di has enjoyed a leisurely time in his house in Jinling with peace of mind.
An official visit? Missing. Invited by the deceased? Don't go. The royal family wants to invite me to a dinner party? This is even more unacceptable, the devil knows what the idea of these relatives is.
The scenery of Jinling, I was tired of seeing it in the early years, he Zhu Laosi was also a bully in Jinling, not to mention the rest, who dared to rob him of the Oiran of Qinhuai River back then? When I was a child, I was still fighting, and I didn't read many books, and I was destined to miss the throne, so my father didn't seem to be very welcome, so he simply broke the jar and fell everywhere with his nostrils facing the sky.
So to put Zhu Di's inner thoughts... If he hadn't been forced to study later, and all these years of self-cultivation, he would have been so angry now, and he would have lifted the table and pulled the knife.
In a sense... Among the three sons, he is most like him, not the boss who is sour and rotten and talks about benevolence and righteousness in everything, nor is he the third child who follows his brother's ass all day long, but the second child who can't wait to write the word arrogance on his face when he walks lawlessly.
It's no wonder that the princess always ridiculed the second child and him when he was young, it was like being carved out of the same mold.
But idle and idle, if you really stay like this, you won't be able to stand it, Jinling's Yanwang Mansion is so big, it can't be compared with the one who can run horses in Beiping, this alley is a gathering place for princes and nobles, and they can be woken up by their voices every morning, which makes Zhu Di annoyed.
And he's also faintly worried... What if Zhu Yunwen really doesn't want his face, and just keeps dragging him out and doesn't let him return to the domain?
Now the palace must be full of brocade guards, let alone seeing people, I'm afraid that the letters will be intercepted, the turmoil of the court meeting that day has spread out, and the hands of Ma Sanbao and the guards have become more and more noisy, but the people have always been forgetful... If he was really suffocated to death in Jinling Yanwang's Mansion like this, it would become a big joke.
As soon as he became irritable, even fishing turned into torture, Zhu Di closed his eyes slightly and basked in the sun, imagining that the fishing rod in his hand was the war knife he often used when he got on the horse, and where the war knife pointed... It's the Miyagi city across the fish pond.
The footsteps were very light and familiar, and Zhu Di didn't open his eyes: "What about the folk rumors?" ”
Ma Sanbao bowed slightly: "There is a lot of discussion among the people about what the prince did at the court meeting, but there are not many people who dare to say that the court is wrong... On the contrary, it is mostly saying that the prince is arrogant and domineering. ”
Zhu Di was not surprised: "Is there anything else?" ”
"The palace guards heard a crazy Taoist singing a ballad along the street, at first glance there was no problem, but if you think about it..."Ma Sanbao's tone was solemn, "That ballad is 'Don't chase the swallow, chase the swallow will fly high, fly high to the palace'!" ”
Zhu Di was slightly stunned, thought carefully for a moment, and his face sank.
"Is it the handiwork of the imperial court?"
"I'm not sure, the guard followed that person for a while, and if he lost it, he must not be an ordinary person."
"Then it should be the imperial court, this ballad is too obvious," Zhu Di shook his head, "After all, it is the territory of the imperial court... What did Gu Huai say about that? The war of public opinion cannot be defeated. ”
Speaking of Gu Huai, Ma Sanbao reached into his arms and took out a letter, his face became strange: "Lord Wang, I came to a letter from the secret spy department... It seems to be the little county lord's. ”
"Miaojin?" Zhu Di was stunned, "Didn't she go back to Zhongshan Palace?" ”
"The minions don't know..."
"The Zhongshan Mansion didn't even tell my brother-in-law about this? I haven't handed a single post these days, Huizu is trying to draw a line with me? It's too inauthentic to do things, or to increase longevity and miss the old feelings. ”
Zhu Di shook his head, took the letter and opened it, and after a while, he couldn't cry or laugh: "Gu Huai, Gu Huai, this guy's guts... It's fat. ”
Seeing that Ma Sanbao was a little curious, Zhu Di shook the letter in his hand: "Miaojin ran away again, and he didn't return to the palace at all, since he took the path of the secret spy department, it is estimated that Gu Huai felt that he couldn't hide it, so he sent this letter to reassure me." ”
Ma Sanbao gasped inwardly.
"But it's not bad for Miao Jin to go back to his ancestral house to live, how old is Miao Jin? I heard the princess say that Huizu is really angry this time, if Miaojin goes back, I am afraid that he will be married off in the blink of an eye," Zhu Di picked up the fishing rod again, "Now the Zhongshan Mansion is also involuntarily, far away... It's also a good thing. ”
Inadvertently catching a glimpse of Ma Sanbao's expression, Zhu Di sneered: "You think I don't know what you're thinking?" Isn't that what the princess said? What should I do with this brother-in-law and benefactor? ”
"Even if Gu Huai has bad intentions, didn't Miao Jin go far? A divorced son-in-law, a yellow flower girl, love to look at the right eye, how can I be this wicked person? ”
He shook his head and threw the hook far away: "Maybe there will be any trouble next... Salty radish light worry! ”
......
"Invite me for a drink?" Gu Huai, who was discussing with the carpenter some kind of convenient transportation that could run on two wheels, looked back: "Neurotic... What kind of madness are they? ”
"I don't know," Wei Laosan scratched his head, "and handed over the post, saying that he was going to set up wine for the brothers of the same clan to sit and chat, and this matter is over, do you want the young master to take a look?" ”
"Look at the fart, let them roll as far as they can," Gu Huai didn't plan to give face at all, "The weasel greets the chickens for the New Year, and the blind can see it." ”
"Well," Wei Laosan took the prayer note into his arms, "Then I'll go and send them away." ”
"Wait," Wei Laosan didn't take two steps, and Gu Huai, who was frowning, called him back: "How many people?" ”
"Four, Gu San, who had no ears, and Gu Er, who was beaten by me, are all here."
"Who's in charge?"
"I don't recognize it, it's like a reader, and it's quite handsome."
"All young people? The old bastard who relied on the old and sold the old was not there? ”
"No, young master, why are you scolding yourself..."
Gu Huai touched his chin and felt that something was wrong.
It's impossible for those people of the Gu clan to bow their heads to themselves... It stands to reason that now it should be the old who comes forward to rely on the old and sell the old, what does it mean that the young people come together?
The lawsuit was won, and the county order of the mud didn't dare to make a big deal in the end, and both sides approved it once, although Gu Huai didn't break the money, he always felt a little uncomfortable.
I obviously won the battle, but I felt aggrieved... This is much different from what I had in mind at the beginning.
The thought of my name still hanging on that family tree makes me sick...
He called Wei Laosan: "How much do you drink?" ”
"What did the young master say? I've never been drunk! ”
"That's good," Gu Huai patted him on the shoulder, "You go drink this wine... Just tell them I'm not here, if they turn around and leave, you'll come back, if they don't even mind drinking with you..."
"Young master, is you scolding me by this?"
"I didn't mean that, you don't interrupt," Gu Huai waved his hand, "If they even you... If I want to get something out of your mouth, you, as a secret spy, should know what I mean? ”
Wei Laosan made a gesture of wiping his neck with his hand.
Gu Huai was completely desperate: "Go and drink with them, brag hard, put them all down, and see if you can get something out." ”
"If you can't drink it, don't fucking come back."
