On the fourth watch, the sky was dark, and even the moon no longer knew when it would hide in the clouds.

In front of Hongwu Gate, there is a hot scene, and the small servants above the mansions are lighting torches, illuminating the entire Hongwu Gate as if it were daylight.

In the capital, a fire dragon gathers towards Hongwu Gate, exquisite carriages, expensive sedan chairs, and majestic war horses continue to appear in front of Hongwu Gate.

Riding in carriages and sedan chairs is naturally a civil official above the court.

The one who is still riding a horse in this weather is, of course, the Ming General who likes to show off.

All kinds of polite voices resounded in front of Hongwu Gate, and scenes of happy encounters were staged.

There is still an hour before the palace gate is opened, and most of the civil officials wear fur under their official uniforms, and the cold wind in Jiangnan is naturally unbearable.

Of course, there are exceptions, the most conspicuous is the Han King Zhu Gaoxu, who is surrounded by a group of military generals.

Not only did he not wear court clothes today, but he did not even wear armor, but he was dressed in a single garment, a short shirt, and an ornamental hanging from his waist.

When the civil servants saw him dressed like this, they couldn't help but whisper.

This lord basically doesn't go to court on weekdays, it is said that it is because he is disgusted with His Royal Highness the Prince, who still has to sit in the court when he goes to the court, and he gets bored when he sees it, so the court meeting can be pushed and pushed.

Today, the sun is coming out in the west, and I will come to wait in front of Hongwu Gate.

It's just that this dress is somewhat contrary to the etiquette law.

Just as everyone was whispering, another horse came, and after Baiguan saw the young man sitting down immediately, he couldn't help but gasp.

"Even His Royal Highness King Zhao is here, I'm afraid that something big will happen at today's court meeting."

"Unusual, unusual."

When everyone saw His Royal Highness King Zhao, who was dressed almost the same as His Royal Highness King Han, they couldn't help but whisper.

It's weird.

If His Royal Highness the King of Han still has the intention of seizing the heir, he will occasionally show his presence in the court, and by the way, he will respond to His Royal Highness the Prince.

His Royal Highness King Zhao is basically a simple house, except for controlling the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, there is almost no trace of His Royal Highness King Zhao in the court.

And today, the gathering of these two brothers suddenly made everyone's hearts a little uneasy, especially a group of civil officials.

No matter how you look at it, these two masters don't look like they're here to go to the court today, but they seem to be here to fight.

After all, who is a good person in the court and still wears a sword, even if they are princes and have the honor of going to the palace with a sword, but the honor is the honor, and no one will take the honor as a daily life.

At the same time, Chen Kan's treasure ship was also docked steadily on the Jingshi Wharf.

Looking at the tall Jingshi city wall in front of him, a trace of nostalgia flashed in Chen Kan's eyes.

The city is still the same city, it hasn't changed at all, but the Jingshi is no longer the Jingshi of the past.

I really miss the days when I got into trouble in Beijing.

At that time, with Zhu Di guarding, Chen Kan dared to break into any trouble, and Zhu Di and Fang Xiaoru wiped his ass in the back.

Who would have thought that in just one and a half years since he left, so many changes had happened in Jingshi.

The relationship between the teacher and the father-in-law was still a honeymoon when he left, but when he came back, the two had already been irreconcilable to the point of irreconcilability, and the speed of the break was too fast.

I don't know if I am in trouble now, will my old father-in-law protect himself as always?

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Kan returned to the room and began to put on his crown clothes.

It was the first time for Chen Kan to wear his marquis's crown dress.

Start with the clothes, wearing a deep coat over the single coat, a crimson round-necked robe outside the deep coat, and the unicorn complement on the robe is made of gold thread, which is unattainable just by looking at it.

The red and white belt is hung with rhino horn ribbons, the skirt is pressed with turquoise medicinal jade, the white socks and black shoes are tied up at the bottom, and the head is wearing a seven-beam cage scarf and jade cicada crown, and the five-inch large Duke Wat board is held.

Wearing this body, just find a place to go to that station, and everyone will know that this person is the first-class noble person of the Ming Dynasty.

When you wear this one, the weight is not much better than wearing light armor.

Chen Kan didn't realize it, just stuffed the wat board into his sleeve, and then drove into the city through the streets and alleys towards the imperial city.

Now that he has returned to Beijing, he can't help but go to today's court.

If you don't get into trouble, how can you test what kind of attitude Zhu Di is now?

So even though he didn't sleep well that night on the boat, he still came to the Hongwu Gate.

When Chen Kan appeared in front of Hongwu Gate in court clothes, the originally lively atmosphere suddenly stagnated.

Chen Kan grabbed the reins of the horse, controlled the war horse, and the man stood up.

"Herod~"

The neighing of horses broke the silence.

Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but admire: "What a handsome riding skill." ”

Chen Kan rode on a horse, condescendingly looked at a group of Wenchen generals waiting in front of Hongwu Gate, a smirk appeared on his face, and he arched his hand: "Everyone, it's been a long time!" ”

Chen Kan's clear voice sounded, and the eyes of everyone were condensed.

Among these eyes, some are surprised, some are resentful, and some are indifferent.

Chen Kan took these gazes into his eyes one by one, and then laughed and said, "What." Do you not welcome Ben Hou, or do you mean that Ben Hou went to Beijing for a while, and you have forgotten that Ben Hou is such a person? ”

"Hahaha......"

As soon as Chen Kan's voice fell, a burst of laughter suddenly sounded in the square.

The laughter came from Zhu Gaoxu, who looked at Chen Kan with a smile and said, "Brother-in-law, welcome home!" ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, the civil and military officials had no scruples.

Especially a group of military generals suddenly surrounded Chen Kan.

As usual, dukes such as Zhu Neng and Qiu Fu were exempt from the court, so the generals were headed by Li Jinglong, the Duke of Cao Guo.

He walked over with Zhang Xin, Zhang Fu and others, and laughed: "Jinghaihou turned to the grassland for three thousand miles, and killed the Tartars to defeat the army, he is really a model for my generation. ”

Li Jinglong's attitude largely represents the attitude of the Ming nobles, as soon as he opened his mouth, the rest of the nobles congratulated Chen Kan.

Left and right are inseparable from his deeds of moving to the grassland, and even bluntly said that Chen Kan is the champion Hou is alive.

For these compliments, Chen Kan accepted them all.

He first bowed to Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, and then laughed at Li Jinglong and said: "How dare Ben Hou refute the face of his grandfather, when Ben Hou finishes dealing with some trivial matters, he will definitely not get drunk with you." ”

"Well said, well said!"

Compared with the enthusiasm on the side of the noble generals, the civilian camp is much colder.

After all, at this time, the officials belonging to Fang Xiaoru's family have basically been taken into prison, and the rest are either wise and self-protective people like Song Li, or cold and lonely people with strong abilities like Jian Yi, or Chen Dang's family, naturally no one will come up to get close to Chen Kantao.

After being polite with the generals for a while, trying not to snub anyone who came forward to greet him, Chen Kan confessed to a group of military generals, and then walked in front of the Zhu brothers.

After seeing the clothes on the two of them, Chen Kan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "The two brothers are waiting for me to come back?" ”

As soon as Chen Kan saw what the two were wearing, he had already guessed the plans of the two.

Obviously, they also want to take this opportunity to show their political tendencies in the court, not for anything else, but to provide Zhu Di with a new choice.

It's also good, it's better for three people to get into trouble than for one person, after all, the law doesn't blame the public!

It's just that I might have to grieve my uncle, but... It doesn't matter, Chen Kan believes that with Zhu Gaochi's political wisdom, he will definitely be able to understand his own hardships.

Zhu Gaoxu grinned and said: "The boss doesn't want to be heavy-handed, don't wait for you to come back and wait for someone to come back, this king has long been unaccustomed to that group of dog-like guys." ”

Zhu Gaosui looked Chen Kan up and down, and a smile appeared in his eyes: "Yes, after walking through the grassland, the changes are quite big, and this king is almost unrecognizable." ”

"After experiencing life and death, you have to grow up a little after all, speaking of which, the envoy of Arutai is also about to enter Beijing, right?"

Zhu Gaoxu said casually: "The news that Wu Gao came back said that he had already entered the customs, but it should be difficult to be troubled along the way, and he couldn't get to Beijing in a short time, in short, there was enough time to do what you wanted to do." ”

Chen Kan was just about to nod, but Zhu Gaosui took over and said: "The Warat Department also wants to get a piece of the pie this time, and this king estimates that there will be a war of words in the court at that time, but this is the work of the old guys in Honglu Temple, and it is inseparable from the four words of the highest." When the time comes, just watch the excitement, although the boss has a softer temperament, but he will not treat his family badly. ”

Chen Kan showed a look of clarity on his face, and responded: "That's okay, my requirements are not high, just don't sell Ben Shi Yali cheaply, more than a thousand lives can't lose money, otherwise I'd rather leave Ben Shi Yali in Daming to watch." ”

After the three of them talked a few words, they tacitly kept silent.

When there was a touch of fish belly white on the horizon, the palace gate was slowly pushed open by Miyagi Lux.

The whip sounded three times, and the herd opened the way.

Chen Kan got into the queue of nobles, and today he deliberately wore a marquis's crown robe, which was conspicuous wherever he stood.

The main thing today is just an ordinary court meeting, and all civil and military officials are wearing court clothes.

The crown dress is a costume that needs to be worn for the grand ceremony, the emperor's birthday, or the new emperor's accession to the throne, and the sacrifice to the sky.

Of course, Chen Kan did it on purpose, he returned to Beijing this time on purpose to be a conspicuous bag, if it was beneficial, how could he negotiate with Zhu Di.

Chen Kan stood at the end of the marquis's procession, and standing behind him was the first person of the earl, the loyal Bo Ruyu.

Chen Kan turned sideways, looked at Ru Yu with a smile and asked, "Ben Hou heard that Lord Ru has been very close to Lord Chen Yushi Chen recently?" ”

When Ru Yu heard this, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on her chubby little face.

Then he suddenly said angrily: "Who did Master Hou listen to, this is obviously a rumor, it is obviously a slander, this is obviously someone who wants to destroy the innocence of the official." ”

Chen Kan's cheeks twitched, and after Ru Yu's performance, a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes, and he said suspiciously: "But everyone says so, is the rumor wrong?" ”
