Chapter 429: The Password

Zhu Bai gasped. Now that he has one hundred and one acres of land, he can truly understand the concept of two thousand five hundred acres.

He said, "I'll take it, which means it's twenty-five times the size of my land." ”

Lao Zhu's personality is fully revealed here, even if he treats the second child, he is also reluctant to let him suffer a little.

Zhu Fan pointed to the city wall and said: "The city wall is two feet nine feet five inches high, and six feet wide below. The women's wall is five feet five inches high. The city river is five zhang wide and three zhang deep. ”

The city wall is wide and narrow at the bottom, like an inverted "product" word, which is also for defense in case of war.

As he spoke, a drizzle suddenly fell in the sky.

Zhu Bai looked up and said, "My father always said that in March, the child's face really changed." ”

Zhu Fan: "I'm not afraid that we can go all the way to the flower hall from the corridor, and you won't be able to get a drop of rain." ”

Zhu Bai asked: "The construction of the second brother's mansion took a lot of thought. ”

Zhu Fan introduced as he walked: "This is the hall for meeting guests, and behind it is the sleeping palace, with three large and small gardens. There is also a temple of sacrifice next to it. Tonight's feast will be held in the flower hall by the lake. ”

Probably to comfort Zhu Zhang's homesickness, these pavilions and pavilions were built in accordance with the Jiangnan style.

It's still early.

The weeping willows on the lakeside of the garden swayed gently, the sharp corners of the tender lotus leaves showed out of the water, and from time to time a dragonfly flew and stopped on it.

The breeze blows the ripples on the surface of the lake, and the silky drizzle is sprinkled on the lake.

Presumably, in another three months, this place will be full of lotus flowers.

Pu Ying, Zhou Bin and the left and right political envoys came to accompany them, and they had already arrived.

Naturally, these people would not be uninterested in running to sue Zhu Bai at this time.

So there was a lot of harmony at the feast.

The meals at the banquet are all Xi'an specialties, beef and mutton, pot helmets, cold skin and so on.

In order to make Zhu Bai accustomed to eating, he also specially made a few dishes with the taste of Yingtian.

Zhu Bai said while eating: "After coming out of Yingtian, it was the first time I ate Yingtian cuisine. In fact, it's only been a month away from home, but it seems like a lifetime. ”

Zhu Fan sighed: "Isn't it, it's difficult to go out at home the day before yesterday." The northwest is bitter cold and dry, I see that you have lost a lot of weight, presumably because you are not accustomed to the water and soil, and you have suffered a lot on the road. ”

Pu Ying asked: "I heard that Lord Li Wenzhong's son came out with His Royal Highness, why didn't I see him?" ”

Zhu Bai knew that Pu Ying and Li Wenzhong were also old friends, so he wanted to care about Li Jinglong.

Zhu Bai smiled: "He was unaccustomed to the soil and water, and he fell ill within a few days of coming out." The king rushed to preside over the tea and horse trading and did not wait for him. I think he will come to Xi'an in a few days. ”

Pu Ying nodded: "It's really terrifying." His Royal Highness and Lord Li Jinglong were appointed by the emperor to preside over the tea and horse trade at such a young age. ”

His compliment was absolutely sincere.

In the fifth year of Hongwu, he came to Xi'an, and he did not have the opportunity to see Zhu Bai's power in Yingtian.

So when he chatted with Zhou Bin and guessed who Lao Zhu would send to preside over the tea and horse transaction, he felt that most of them were to pick a safe person from the household department.

Zhou Bin and the others unanimously said that Lao Zhu would definitely send Zhu Bai, because only Zhu Bai could do it.

At that time, he was still a little unimpressed: how old is Zhu Bai, how can it be.

Most of this official tooth bureau is Lao Zhu sitting behind the scenes, and Zhu Bai is just making a appearance.

I didn't expect to really send Zhu Bai in the end.

Pu Ying and the others had eaten, sat down for a while, and then took their leave, leaving Zhu Bai and Zhu Fan alone.

Zhu Bai turned his head and asked, "What about the seventh?" But in the backyard? ”

Zhu Zhang: "Alas, I'm sorry. I took him hunting the other day, and he didn't know where it had gone. ”

Zhu Bai asked: "Oh, it's okay, it's just a dog, maybe I'll come back in a few days, and when I go back to Yingtian, I'll call someone to come over to the second brother." Master Hongyuan. Master Zongxi said let me bring him a few scriptures. ”

Zhu Fan smiled: "Master Hongyuan likes to be quiet, so he usually stays in the backyard." I will call for him to come out. ”

After a moment, Hongyuan came out of it with his head down.

Zhu Bai took the scripture from Fugui's hand and sent it to Hongyuan in person: "This is what Master Zongxi asked me to give to you." ”

Hongyuan took it and said, "Thank you, Master Zongxi, the poor monk recites the "Dizang Sutra" every day, and His Highness can also take a look at it when he has time." ”

Zhu Bai nodded: "It's good." This king must tell the master for him. ”

Hongyuan was a little disappointed: it seemed that Zhu Bai didn't hear his secret words, otherwise he wouldn't have had no reaction.

Zong Xi said that Zhu Bai dozed off as soon as he heard the scriptures, and he really didn't know the content of the "Dizang Sutra".

Zhu Bai chatted with Zhu Fan for a few words.

Zhu Fan said: "On the way to Zhongdu before, you always said that you wanted to hunt rabbits, but now it is the fattest time. Do you want the second brother to take you outside to the grassland and play with rabbits? ”

When Zhu Bai heard this, his eyes lit up: "Really? ”

Fugui immediately said, "Your Highness, there are still Mongols outside." ”

Zhu Fan squinted at Fugui: "The master speaks, when will it be your turn to interject." ”

Zhu Bai looked at Fugui and nodded: "Look, this king has said it." Let you keep the rules, but you will not listen. When outsiders saw it, they thought that the king was not strict in discipline. ”

Fugui understood Zhu Bai's hint and hurriedly bowed his head: "The slave is wrong." ”

Only then did Zhu Fan leave his wealth behind, and said to Zhu Bai: "The Mongolians have all moved to places with fertile water and grass at this time, and have driven cattle and sheep to graze. They usually come out in the autumn to grab things. Besides, General Lan and General Mu subdued them, and the Mongols easily did not dare to come out, so this would be calm. ”

Zhu Bai thought for a while and shook his head: "Forget it." ”

Zhu Fan clenched his fists and reminded himself not to be too eager to scare Zhu Bai away.

Zhu Bai said again: "Ah, that's right. This time, in addition to inspecting the Yaxing in Xi'an, I was also entrusted by my father to bring Master Hongyuan and his apprentices back. Change a monk to Xi'an. ”

From the moment he saw Hongyuan, he felt that something was wrong. First, Hongyuan's spirit is wrong, there is no light in his eyes, and his face is pale. Second, I always followed Hongyuan's apprentices and didn't see anyone.

Just now Hongyuan said that he immediately understood the "Dizang Sutra", and Hongyuan wanted to hint to him that this is hell.

Zhu Fan is an evil ghost.

Zhu Fan must have caught his apprentice and came to blackmail Master Hongyuan.

But even if he knew that there was a problem, he couldn't directly rob Zhu Zhang.

After all, this is Zhu Zhang's territory.

Zhu Fan has the power to mobilize the Xi'an Health Center.

There are dozens of people who can't escape at all.

Hongyuan lowered his eyes, hiding his excitement: he understood, this kid is really smart.

Zhu Fan nodded: "Okay." This king has been with Master Hongyuan for more than a year, and now that Master Hongyuan is leaving, this king is a little reluctant, so he will keep him for a few more days. When the twelve brothers leave, the king will personally send them with you. ”
