Zhu Wenzheng heard that Kang Duo had become a third-grade military general, and Li Jinglong was going to follow Zhu Bai to do the tea and horse business, so he became more and more indignant. Kang Maocai's old boy couldn't compare to me back then, and now his son's official position is higher than mine.

I just wrote a letter to Zhang Shicheng, and I didn't do anything else.

They all climbed on top of me.

What is this called?

He was so angry that he walked around the yard, but there was nothing he could do.

The servant came in and reported: "Master Hu has sent this year's home-brewed new wine." ”

In the past six months, Hu Weiyong has asked someone to send something over from time to time.

Zhu Wenzheng has never received it positively, he just asked someone to take it and then return the gift.

But people's hearts are flesh and blood, and Hu Weiyong is always so attentive, which makes him mumble in his heart.

Today he paid attention and asked, "Did Master Hu come by himself today, or did he ask someone to send it?" ”

The servant said, "Personally." ”

I don't know why, Hu Weiyong's sentence "His Royal Highness the King of Nanchang" suddenly flashed through his mind.

Zhu Wenzheng said: "Quick, go and keep Master Hu, serve fragrant tea, and ask him to stay for a while." I'm going to receive it personally. ”

The servants hurried out.

Zhu Wenzheng changed into a set of clothes for the guests before going out.

Hu Weiyong sat in the front hall, drinking tea slowly.

Zhu Wenzheng went out and arched his hand: "Oops, it's rude." Master Hu has been here so many times, and the lower officials are not at home. ”

Hu Weiyong smiled: "Your Highness said it was funny." His Royal Highness is willing to take the time to see each other, and Weichen is sincerely afraid. ”

Zhu Wenzheng straightened his face: "Master Hu is a guest, I welcome it." But if you are so rebellious and call me 'King of Nanchang', I will turn my face. ”

Hu Weiyong sighed: "Alas, although the emperor did not issue an order to correct your name, you have always been a well-deserved king of Nanchang in our hearts." I think that back then, you defended the city alone for the emperor and resisted Chen Youliang's army, and you were the emperor's own nephew, so you were the founding of the country and should be crowned king. ”

Zhu Wenzheng suddenly remembered that Hu Weiyong was actually an "old man" who had followed Lao Zhu for many years, but his "history" was more bumpy.

So Hu Weiyong's sigh is not hearsay.

Zhu Wenzheng was silent.

Hu Weiyong said: "Does the king of Nanchang plan to be so silent? ”

Zhu Wenzheng smiled bitterly: "Otherwise, what else?" ”

As long as you can go to Nanchang, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, even if you are not an official, it doesn't matter.

Hu Weiyong: "Find a way." Since the emperor asked you to teach the prince before, it means that he thinks your riding and archery skills are still good. ”

Zhu Wenzheng shook his head: "The emperor doesn't trust me now. It's useless to think of anything. ”

Although he didn't say that he would not be allowed to leave the palace, he couldn't go up to the court, and he wouldn't let him enter the palace gate, unless Lao Zhu summoned him, he couldn't see Lao Zhu at all......

Hu Weiyong said: "As a courtier, there is no way. As a nephew, there is still a way. After all, the emperor only has you, his own nephew. ”

Zhu Wenzheng was stunned for a moment and muttered, "What way?" ”

Hu Weiyong smiled mysteriously, dipped his fingers in tea and wrote the word "cry" on the table, then glanced at Zhu Wenzheng, and erased it again.

Zhu Wenzheng understood.

But he also knows that there is no such good thing in the world.

Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief.

Hu Weiyong is not a good person, and he suddenly came to get close to him, there must be some intention.

Zhu Wenzheng stared at Hu Weiyong: "What do you want from me?" ”

Hu Weiyong sighed: "Alas, you think too much. After all, I am not from the old Zhu family, and the prince and the princes are afraid of me. I also want to find a thigh hug. ”

Zhu Wenzheng nodded: "Okay, thank you." If it can be done this time, I will not forget the grace of Master Hu. ”

-----

Old Zhu Zheng and Zhu Biao were looking at the excerpts in the imperial study, and suddenly heard a report from the outside that Zhu Wenzheng was guilty of asking for guilt, just to see the emperor.

Lao Zhu raised his eyebrows and asked Erhu: "What is it?" Guilty of petitioning? ”

Erhu replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, Lord Zhu is kneeling outside the Chengtian Gate with his bare body and carrying a thorn strip on his back." ”

Tut-tut, such a rough person, he can't write articles, and he will follow the ancients and take the blame.

This is under the guidance of a master.

Lao Zhu sneered: "Take him to the front of the imperial study, let's see what monkey tricks this bastard is going to play." ”

A moment later, Zhu Wenzheng came, kneeling on the ground outside the imperial study and crying and kowtowing: "Uncle, you are willing to see your nephew." ”

Lao Zhu sat inside and didn't make a sound.

Zhu Wenzheng kowtowed: "My nephew was wrong, my nephew was young and vigorous at that time, and he didn't understand anything, and he was confused and hurt my uncle's heart for a while." If my uncle is really angry, he will scold me and beat me again. If you don't forgive me, I won't have the face to see my father even if I die. Daddy. My son is not filial, you are my son, and I will disgrace you. ”

Lao Zhu suddenly remembered his brother, and his eyes turned red.

Even if he changed the rich name of his eldest brother Zhu Chongsi to Zhu Xinglong, what is the use, his eldest brother has been starved to death!

He had three older brothers, all of whom starved to death, why? Because everyone wanted to keep that bite for the youngest.

Of the three elder brothers, only the eldest brother Zhu Chongsi left Zhu Wenzheng as a son.

He has laid down the country, what is the use of having this sky-shattering wealth.

But there's no one at home, no one!!

When he returned to Fengyang, the two huts in his family had collapsed.

The north wind blew through the mound of dirt and thatch that was once a house, and he cried bitterly as an iron-clad man who had killed countless people and seen countless lives and deaths without shedding tears.

That's why did he marry so many women and have so many children.

He was afraid, he was afraid that if he didn't have a few more, the old Zhu family would be extinct, and he would really become a loner.

Zhu Wenzheng was still crying: "Mother, you took me all the way from Fengyang to find my uncle, we didn't even have a pair of shoes in the winter, and when we saw my uncle, my uncle gave us a pair of half-new shoes." It's me who is ungrateful, who has won a few battles and forgotten who I am. I'm such a bastard, I regret it, mother. ”

He cried as he spoke.

Lao Zhu's tears also fell.

When Zhu Wenzheng was led by his sister-in-law to join him, he was thin and small, like a teenager. This is also the reason why Zhu Wenzheng is shorter than everyone else in adulthood.

Zhu Biao saw that Lao Zhu was crying, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Father should not be too sad, it is not good for his health." Erchen also sincerely repented when he saw his cousin, otherwise give him another chance. ”

It's been ten years since Zhu Wenzheng was dried.

Besides, Zhu Wenzheng is indeed a good hand at fighting.

Lao Zhu stopped crying: "Call him in." ”

Zhu Wenzheng was so cold that he was red and swayed, and he crawled on the ground after coming in.

Lao Zhu said: "Find a piece of clothing to put on for him." What kind of body does it become naked? ”

It sounds like he is scolding Zhu Wenzheng, but he has actually begun to feel sorry for him.
