The banquet was actually a diplomatic occasion, and everyone kept flattering the emperor and praising Zhu Xianming's saintly benevolence to the sky.

And the Emperor Taishang on the throne has become a tool to prove the emperor's benevolence and filial piety, but Zhu Xianming constantly mentions how the emperor is loving.

The toasts over and over again, and the kneeling over and over again, also brought the atmosphere of the bonfire dinner to a climax.

Different from the subtlety of the Ming officials, some of these foreign khanates, some of them sang to express their respect for the emperor, and some attended the dance to please the emperor.

The music is light, the songs are rough, and the dancing is ...... This situation is just like the Zhenguan era thousands of years ago.

On the high platform, Zhu Xianming looked at his father on the side and asked calmly, "Dad...... What about me and Tang Taizong? ”

Back then, Tang Taizong arrested Jieli to Chang'an and asked him to dance for his father, Zhu Xianming felt that in terms of this matter, he was really no worse than Li Shimin.

Picking up the wine glass, Zhu Xinkan said slowly: "Wu'er should be compared to Yao Shun!" ”

Tang Taizong was a secular sage and sage, while Yao Shun has been mythologized as an unblemished sage and master in the Confucian ideal.

Zhu Xianming also raised his glass to his father, and said with a smile: "My son should do his best!" ”

When the wine was drunk, some people sang and danced, and some people came to the palace to toast, and the prince and King Rui were also very busy.

Only Zhu Jinghong sat in the distance, laughing with his sister.

"Brother Thirteen, those women's voices are so good!" Zhu Yunsheng pointed ahead.

Singing was melodious in front of them, and several girls were singing and dancing, obviously they were prepared.

"Singing...... Who wouldn't! Zhu Jinghong looked indifferent.

"Will you?"

"How easy!" Zhu Jinghong drank a glass of wine, and in his previous life, he didn't go out to sing with customers.

Zhu Yunsheng was also playful, and immediately said: "Then you sing a song!" ”

"What's the benefit of letting me sing for nothing?" Zhu Jinghong asked with a smile.

Zhu Yunsheng didn't talk nonsense, and immediately said: "If the thirteenth brother makes a mistake again and is punished, I will definitely help you ask for your father's mercy!" ”

"Just help me intercede, the old man may not be gracious!" Zhu Jinghong had an indifferent attitude.

He really has to make a big mistake recently, and Zhu Yunsheng's plea is very useful for him.

"If my father doesn't give me grace, I will accompany the thirteenth brother to be punished!" Zhu Yunsheng said with a firm expression.

"Really?" Zhu Jinghong smiled, he knew that the emperor was reluctant to punish this precious daughter.

"Seriously!"

"That's good...... Brother, I'll sing you a cappella! ”

Hearing his words, the girls sat next door, but they all pricked up their ears to listen.

The dignified prince sings...... It's a rare sight.

coughed a few times to clear his throat, and Zhu Jinghong was thinking about singing that song, it was best to be more suitable for the occasion so as not to be abrupt.

Thinking of the song that a certain rich man loved in his previous life, this immediately made up his mind.

"Since you left, you have lost your gentle ......"

The lyrics are very straightforward, and the singing tone is very unique, which greatly exceeded the expectations of Zhu Yunsheng and others.

It turns out that the thirteenth brother can really sing...... Zhu Yunsheng thought so.

"I still remember that you promised me that I wouldn't let me find you, but you flew so far with the migratory birds returning south......"

Zhu Jinghong sang quietly, and the song of the sword god was good, not only the richest man liked him, but also the prince.

The lyrics are full of affection, the tune is tactful and melodious, and the performance method is novel...... For a while, the girls listened very carefully.

After singing a song, before Zhu Jinghong pretended to be forced, a voice came from behind him.

"It's so good to sing, the person you love in Your Highness's song is my sister!"

Zhu Jinghong sang emotionally, and several girls listened carefully, but they didn't notice that someone was coming behind them.

Looking back, Zhu Jinghong took a closer look and realized that the person who came was the woman who made his eyes shine.

"You are?"

"I'm Nomin of the Nagibe Alliance!"

Compared with Zhu Jinghong's interest in the girl in front of him, Zhu Yunsheng was more curious about who the "sister" in the other party's mouth was, and how this person could make his brother sing so emotionally.

"Who is your sister?"

Baochai and Zhu Yunsheng were in the same mood, so they stared at Nuo Min with curiosity.

"My sister is the character of Dzungaria, and she has also served as an attendant to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

It turned out to be its own character......

Why is it so?

Hearing Nuo Min's words, Zhu Yunsheng and the others had new doubts.

Qiqige didn't stay in the palace for long, they got along with her day and night, and they didn't see how good Zhu Jinghong was to her.

Especially Baochai understands that every time Zhu Jinghong goes to the east hall of Kunning Palace, he basically stays with her.

But Baochai also knew that it was impossible to count on Zhu Jinghong to be single-minded, so she was quickly relieved.

Yang Jingting, who was on the side, felt extremely uncomfortable at the moment.

Baochai just competed with her, and now she can compete with her thousands of miles away, which makes Yang Jingting feel even more defeated.

As for Daiyu and Xiangyun, they are asking Zhen Qin who he is at this moment and what happened to this thirteenth master.

Only the party Zhu Jinghong was very confused, how could this song be sung for him.

"Girl, I'm afraid you're mistaken!"

"You can't be wrong...... Snow Mountains, Cold Winds, West Seas, Plateaus...... Isn't this Dzungaria? ”

After Nuo Min said this, everyone felt that it made sense, so they looked at Zhu Jinghong one after another.

Thinking of the love-hate look in his eyes when he mentioned Zhu Jinghong, Nuo Min said bluntly: "Your Highness, my sister likes you too!" ”

Good guys, that's really good guys......

The others were okay, Yang Jingting snorted coldly directly, and then scolded: "I don't know shame!" ”

Zhu Jinghong is her future husband, and Yang Jingting can't bear Nuo Min's words.

Nuo Min glanced at Yang Jingting, but didn't pay attention to her, but said to Zhu Jinghong: "Your love must have encountered a lot of hardships to be so poignant and touching!" ”

"I ......"

"Your Highness, rest assured, I will definitely convey your true feelings to my sister to her!"

"Actually......"

Zhu Jinghong was about to explain, but Cheng Ying came to his side, hooked his waist and said, "Thirteenth Master, the Lord has summoned you over!" ”

"Oh...... You wait, I'll say a few words before I go! ”

If you can make the emperor wait, Zhu Jinghong can do it.

"Thirteenth Master, the Lord is angry, you better go now!" Cheng Ying kindly reminded.

The emperor is the biggest, although Zhu Jinghong wants to explain, he can only talk about it later.

"You wait for me for a while, and I'll make it clear to you when I come back!"

Making it clear is secondary, talking to this beautiful girl is Zhu Jinghong's purpose.

"My thirteenth brother is really so sincere?"

Looking at the princess in front of her, Nuo Min said very seriously: "My sister admires brave men the most, as long as His Royal Highness King Xiang is brave and invincible, her love will not be fake!" ”

"Then tell me the inside story!" Zhu Yunsheng became more and more curious.

When Nuo Min pushed back the "plot" according to the lyrics, Daiyu looked at Baochai beside her and whispered: "Sister Bao, this thirteenth master is really a ...... Amorous people! ”

Knowing that Daiyu didn't have anything good to say next, Baochai asked rhetorically, "What...... Do you like him too? ”

"Sister Bao will talk nonsense...... Ignore you! ”

Daiyu didn't look over, she was actually listening to Nuo Min's story.

To say that this Nuo Min's head is turning fast and bright, through the reverse deduction of the lyrics, she made up a poignant love story between Zhu Jinghong and his personality.

Hearing the end, even Baochai was not calm, and almost thought that what Numin said was true.

Let's talk about the other end, Zhu Jinghong, who was handed over, is being reprimanded by the emperor at the moment.

"You're really sensible, you drink and have fun, and you have the heart to sing...... But I don't know what your grandfather said in front of you! ”

"What do you mean? The etiquette of benevolence and filial piety learned in the books on weekdays is all read into the dog's belly? ”

was scolded by the emperor, Zhu Jinghong only lowered his head and listened, and did not mean to defend himself.

He didn't come to toast like his brother tonight, it was completely deliberate on his part, and he made a little mistake while not showing his face, so that he would be more down-to-earth.

Seeing that he was reprimanded, Zhu Jingyuan, who was not far away, looked indifferent, and his suspicion of Zhu Jinghong in his heart was a little weaker, but he still maintained great vigilance.

"Son should be damned!" Zhu Jinghong knelt down directly.

He admitted his mistakes so freely, but Zhu Xianming had nowhere to spread the fire, and he couldn't really beat the kid in front of him to death.

"Fourth, it's almost done...... When you were young, you didn't like to stay with the girls like Little Thirteen! ”

The Emperor Taishang suddenly spoke, choking back all Zhu Xianming's later words.

At this time, Zhu Jinghong raised his head, and looked at his father with a scrutinizing gaze, as if to say that you are always such a person.

was glared at by Zhu Xianming, and Zhu Jinghong immediately lowered his head.

"What are you still doing? If you don't hurry up and pour wine for your grandfather, it will hurt you in vain! After another scolding, Zhu Xianming easily changed the topic.

He flattered him here, and Nomin on the other side had finished telling the story, and everyone present thought it was wonderful, even though they knew that it was not the case.

However, before Nuo Min could say a few more words, she was taken away by Su He, who rushed over, and Su He also confessed to Zhu Yunsheng before parting.

After being pulled aside, Nuo Min said reluctantly, "Father...... What are you doing here? ”

"I told you to settle down, what do you see you have done?" Sue He's face was gloomy, but his voice was small.

"Do you know how dangerous it is to stay by the side of the Zhu family, and if someone is unhappy, they can kill you!"

Although he was dissatisfied, he thought that his father was caring about him, and Nuo Min could only listen honestly.

"Father, I've discovered a secret!"

"What's the secret?" Su He asked subconsciously.

"His Royal Highness King Xiang has a deep affection for his sister!"

Su He knew the inside story of his departure from the capital, and immediately sneered when he heard this: "Ridiculous......"

The conversation between the father and daughter here was unpleasant, and Zhu Jinghong on the other side was also uncomfortable, for no other reason because he was standing beside the emperor.

Zhu Xianming raised various questions about the situation of army training and ordnance manufacturing.

"By the way, there is news from Nanzhen Fuji, there is really gold on the Japanese side!"

It has been more than forty days since Zhu Jinghong last mentioned this matter, and now Nanzhen Fusi has sent back the news, which is not ordinary fast.

After all, Japan is far overseas, and it is very troublesome to convey information, which shows that the operation of Nanzhen Fuji is extremely efficient.

"Japan is a bonanza, and the gold is picked up, Dad...... Hurry up! ”

"It's not just them, those places in Luzon, Tianzhu, and South Vietnam are all very rich!"

Knowing that there were really mines in Japan, Zhu Xianming's heart had long been restless.

With money, he can mobilize resources, expand armaments and wars, and create greater achievements, how can he refuse such a temptation.

"In order to maintain the stability and peace of the world, Daming needs these mines!" Zhu Jinghong said firmly.

Brushing his beard, Zhu Xianming said slowly: "Japan may not be reluctant to ......"

"Then they are the culprits who destroy the peace of the world, and the imperial court should severely punish ...... with heavenly soldiers," Zhu Jinghong said righteously.

"But this vast sea ......"

"So my son said a long time ago, we have to build a water division, and then not only the gold mines in Japan, but also those Westerners who are so rich that we can also collect their taxes!"

At this moment, Zhu Jinghong has completely incarnated as a militant, and Zhu Xianming has obviously moved.

"There is some truth to it......"

When the father and son had a deep conversation, time passed quickly, and after about half an hour, this special dinner party also came to an end.

The foreign vassals thanked the emperor, and then Zhu Xianming announced the end of the banquet, and everyone left under the guidance of the ceremonial officer.

The next day, some vassal officials left, but some chose to stay and enjoy the prosperity of Shinkyo for a few more days.

Among them is the mission of the Namu Alliance, it's not that he is nostalgic for the prosperity of Shenjing, but he simply dotes on his daughter.

At this moment, the official residence where Su He stayed sent away an uninvited guest.

"King Xiang's invitation?" Nomin was curious.

Su He nodded, but he felt very strange in his heart, and he didn't understand why King Xiang wanted to summon him.

"Father, shall we go?"

Su He replied calmly: "The day before yesterday, His Majesty the Emperor gave a banquet, and His Royal Highness King Xiang had a very happy conversation with the Holy Lord, and we can't afford to offend!" ”

"So we have to go!" Nomin said very bluntly.

"Exactly!"

When the father and daughter were about to set off, at this moment in the Xiangwang Mansion, Zhu Jinghong was sitting in the meditation hall of the inner house, wiping his saber with a towel.

The meditation hall is the side hall on the west side of the Yin'an Palace, and when you hear the name, it should be a study, but at this moment it has become his arsenal.

And the Ming Auditorium on the east side of the Yin'an Hall has become the place where he displays his armor.

Such a function setting is completely contrary to the emperor's wishes, but no one cares about him now.

"Lord Wang, are you really meeting guests in the carriage room?" Yu Hai was a little hesitant, if it was Deng An, he wouldn't ask these words.

"Hmm!"

After receiving a positive reply, Yu Hai could only go down to make arrangements.

"Thirteenth Master, you drink tea!" Yinglian walked in with a teacup.

Now in the Yin'an Palace, there are more than 20 servant maids, but only Yinglian is responsible for serving closely.

Putting down the towel in his hand, Zhu Jinghong took the teacup and said, "You let them do these things!" ”

Yinglian is not stupid, if this errand is given to someone else, she and Zhu Jinghong will have to be estranged, she knows very well the flattering methods of those people.

"Slaves and maids like to serve the prince!" Yinglian responded.

Zhu Jinghong didn't say much, after drinking tea, he pulled Yinglian into his arms, and played with her up and down, and soon her coquettish voice came from the room.

Half an hour later, Su and his father and daughter came to the outside of King Xiang's mansion and were introduced into the palace by the eunuch through the side door.

The two of them were taken to the carriage and horse room, and only then did they hear Yu Hai explain in curiosity: "The thirteenth master is a good horse, I want to discuss it with Your Excellency, you two will wait!" ”

It turned out to be a discussion about horses, which was really beyond Su He's expectations.

After taking a turn in the stable, he thought there was nothing new, but when he saw one of the black horses, Suhe stopped.

Decades of experience have taught him that this is definitely a rare good horse.

So he couldn't help but go up and pet him, but the horse was so angry that he almost knocked him down.

"Don't move, people can't get close to it!" An attendant reminded.

This horse was given by Shuilu, and there are two people who are responsible for feeding it at the moment, and the treatment is better than most people.

Just when Su He was about to speak, Zhu Jinghong appeared at the right time, and after venting, he looked refreshed, and his eyes were much clearer when he looked at Nuo Min.

"See the prince!"

Seeing a group of eunuchs saluting, Su and the father and daughter also came forward to salute, but they were stopped by Zhu Jinghong just about to bow down.

"Don't be polite, take the liberty to invite the two of you today, if there is anything abrupt...... Please forgive me! ”

"Your Highness is gracious!"

"My BMW, how's it going?" Zhu Jinghong pointed ahead.

Su He immediately replied: "This is a good horse in a million!" ”
