Zhu Biao was seen as funny.

He put down his pen and walked over to Chu Ze and sat down.

"How can we not care?" Just when the palace maid served tea, Zhu Biao took the initiative to take it and sent it to Chu Ze, which was his gesture of goodwill.

Chu Ze's eyes were better when he looked at him.

But still not angry.

He took the teacup and accepted Zhu Biao's overtures, but his tone was still not good: "Then what are you going to do?" Is the pipe killing the pipe buried? ”

Zhu Biao was amused: "Nonsense." ”

"Then what else." Chu Ze complained slightly, and then leaned to Zhu Biao's side, and then whispered, "You watched us go to Ryukyu to die, and you didn't bring us to say a word." ”

He didn't dare to oppose too fiercely, but it was just because of Zhu Yuanzhang's ambiguous attitude during this time.

But Zhu Biao didn't even pull him.

It's a bit of a brotherhood.

Zhu Biao also knew that Chu Ze must have a grudge in his heart.

But he couldn't stop it.

His father has always had his own decisions, even if he is the eldest son of his father's love, there are some things he can't do.

But saying that he didn't care, Zhu Biao was not happy.

"Who says we don't care about you? You see what this is? He got up and walked to the table, took out a mahogany box, handed it to Chu Ze, and asked him to open it.

Chu Ze took the box and opened it-

With just one glance, Chu Ze recognized that this was Zhu Biao's portable jade pendant.

Chu Ze took out the jade pendant, held it in front of Zhu Biao, and looked at him suspiciously: "What do you mean by this?" ”

"Naturally, it's helping." Zhu Biao said solemnly, "The escorts you went to Ryukyu were all personally selected by us, and all of them were brave and brave with unique skills. But if this person wants to subdue the Ryukyus, it is naturally impossible, but it is not a problem to keep you safe. And this jade pendant can be taken out when necessary, and it can be used to mobilize the government army in the coastal area for your use. In this way, it is not necessary to take the Ryukyus. ”

Chu Ze played with the jade pendant and thought about Zhu Biao's words.

Zhu Biao has a benevolent temperament and will definitely not harm him.

But with these coastal soldiers alone, it will not be easy to take the Ryukyus.

Chu Ze thought for a while and asked, "Biao, who is the person you are talking about who can be a million heroes?" Where are you now? ”

"This person's name is Li Xing, and he is the eldest son of the former Ryukyu king." Zhu Biao didn't hide it from him, and said directly, "This person found us a few days ago and wanted to borrow the Ming soldiers and horses to conquer the land and avenge his father." ”

Li Xing?

"He's in Yingtian?" Chu Ze asked.

Zhu Biao nodded: "Not bad." ”

"And is he reliable?" Chu Ze asked again.

Zhu Biao thought about the situation when he met Li Xing at that time, smiled, and said: "We think he is reliable, but as soon as he recovers the country, although you can use him to destroy the current Ryukyu King, it is also Li Xing's uncle Li Shichang, but if you want Li Xing to return, I am afraid it will take some effort." And that's what we're worried about. ”

With Li Xing here, there is an army in the Ryukyus to attack Chu Ze.

But after that, Chu Ze was isolated.

"What about our soldiers? Can't you tune one out? Chu Ze asked again.

Zhu Biao shook his head and said nothing, the meaning was obvious.

Seeing this, Chu Ze didn't ask much.

In fact, when he asked about the soldiers, Chu Ze already had a guess in his heart.

Based on what he heard from his future father-in-law during this time, Chu Ze speculated that most of the soldiers in the current Ming Dynasty were stuck in the thorns, and it was difficult to immediately transfer troops to attack the Ryukyus.

This is also the main reason why Zhu Yuanzhang sent him as an envoy to Ryukyu.

And the secondary reason, Chu Ze thinks, should be Zhu Yuanzhang who wants to take this opportunity to deal with himself.

Otherwise, why would he limit himself to three months to win the Ryukyus?

It's just that Chu Ze can't be sure, whether Zhu Yuanzhang simply wants to teach himself a lesson to get angry, or whether he really wants to kill himself.

But now, Chu Ze is not worried.

With Zhu Biao's jade pendant and Li Xing, his life is already worry-free.

The big deal is that he can't take the Ryukyus for three months, and he will be repaired by Zhu Yuanzhang when he comes back.

Chu Ze is not afraid.

Seeing Chu Ze's expression that instantly became clear, Zhu Biao turned around and took out a letter, handed it to Chu Ze, and advised: "The prefect of Quanzhou has some friendship with us, after you arrive in Quanzhou, give him this letter, and he can help you when necessary." ”

Chu Ze's eyes lit up when he heard this.

It's a life-saving thing, so it's got to be put away.

He took the letter and put it away properly, and then happily patted Zhu Biao's shoulder and gave a thumbs up: "Good brother, it's interesting enough." ”

"Now don't you say that we are killing and buried?" Zhu Biao hugged his arms and looked at Chu Ze teasingly.

Chu Ze smiled "hehe", and praised sharply with a thumbs up: "Let's take back this sentence, you are generous, righteous, righteous, and ......."

"Gotta gotcha, you're still on the idiom solitaire." Zhu Biao didn't bother to listen to his sycophants, interrupted him and began to drive people away, saying, "We have nothing to do, you go back and pack up, and you will leave tomorrow." ”

Chu Ze got a way to save his life and happily prepared to leave.

As soon as he took two steps, he suddenly stopped and turned back to ask Zhu Biao: "Biao, where is that Li Xingren?" How do we find him? ”

They chatted for so long just now, but they only said that Li Xing intended to unite with them, but they didn't say where Li Xing was at this moment.

How did Chu Ze find it?

If they miss it, won't it delay the big thing?

"This person, when it's time to appear, he will naturally appear." Zhu Biao thought about it, and his expression suddenly became unfathomable.

Chu Ze was very dissatisfied with this answer.

He asked several times, and the person who knew everything about him just now seemed to have his mouth locked, and he didn't say anything when he asked, so angry that Chu Ze raised his middle finger.

……

The next morning, the genius was bright.

It's just early spring, and it's the time when it's warm and cold.

The cold air in the morning scraped like a knife on people.

Chu Ze was dressed in a thick crane and stood at the base of the city wall, saying goodbye to Lan Ruoyan and Lan Yu and others who came to see him off.

"Brother Chu Ze, can't we really go?" The corners of Lan Ruoyan's eyes drooped downward, and she reluctantly grabbed Chu Ze's fingers, Chu Ze had been gone for several months, and she was reluctant.

Chu Ze held her little hand and warmed her fingers with the temperature of his palm.

"Don't worry, we're just going to talk about something, and we'll be back when we're done." As for the side, he didn't say a word.

He didn't mention it, and Lan Yu and the others didn't mention it, so as not to worry Lan Ruoyan in vain.

"Chu Ze, why don't we go with you? We haven't seen the scenery on the sea yet, so I'm just going to see it with you. Lan Ruoyan didn't know the true purpose of Chu Ze's visit, but Lan Yu knew. He couldn't say it directly, and it took all his brains to come up with such an excuse.

After saying that, Lan Yu was embarrassed herself.

This excuse is so clumsy that even Lan Ruoyan feels strange: "Daddy, you are a general, it is inappropriate to leave the country lightly without the emperor's will, right?" ”

"That's it, don't make a fool of yourself, it's better for us to go with Chu Ze. Chu Ze, you said yes, right? Zhu Fan kept giving Chu Ze a look, and almost said directly: You open your mouth to ask for us, we can protect you if we go! (End of chapter)
