First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 486
Liu Jin glanced at the direction of the inner hall and replied: "Send it over, Liang Lin is so grateful that he will definitely live up to His Highness's expectations."

Zhu Biao nodded casually. There are many official positions in the imperial court and someone must take up the position. In fact, as long as it is less than the third rank, there is no big requirement. It doesn't matter whether it is strong or not. This Liang Lin is also considered smart. , I hope it will develop in the future.

At this time, the pretentious screams in the room were also quieter in the afternoon. After all, Zhu Xi's voice was probably a little hoarse after howling for so long.

Only then did Zhu Biao get up and walk towards the inner hall, and when he got there, he saw the figure of His Royal Highness King Jin with his butt pouting. Fortunately, there were bed curtains to cover it, otherwise Zhu Biao would have turned around and left.

"Brother, why did you come to see me..."

After Zhu Biao stood still in the middle of the inner hall, the eunuch moved the chair and sat down and said: "What's so good about a flesh wound? I should teach you a little lesson. The reason for letting you go out of the palace is to practice bowing and horse hard. It's a good thing that you have lost your body like this, why, after living for more than ten years, you are tired of living?"

Zhu Xi couldn't help but yelled when he moved his body, poked his head out of the bed curtain and complained aggrievedly: "I just couldn't hold back and played for a few more days, and everyone else did the same, as for..."

Zhu Biao immediately frowned and shouted coldly: "Shut up! It's only right and proper for Father to teach you a lesson. If you dare to complain, be careful that I will drag you out and beat you again!"

Zhu Xi, who was still pretending to be a little grievance at first, had red eye circles for an instant, and then retracted her head. It can be seen that the wound was trembling with pain due to the large movement, but this time she stubbornly did not cry out.

Zhu Biao also pinched his brows helplessly, Zhu Xi is also sixteen or seventeen years old, he has reached puberty, although children of this era are relatively precocious, but after all, he has been bound by the rules of the palace for a long time, and he suddenly left the palace Inevitably some self-indulgence.

"You still haven't figured out why your father taught you a lesson. Do you really think it's because you're a womanizer? How many men in this world can't be lustful? What's more, as a prince, it's just a matter of spreading leaves and branches for the royal family. Your responsibility."

Seeing that the people inside didn't answer, Zhu Biao's eyes turned cold: "Second brother, you don't have any self-control, how can you sit on one side in the future, if you really just want to have fun for the rest of your life, then big brother will help you, let alone those few Qing Guanren, ten, hundreds, and thousands of big brothers can be given to you, you should think about it yourself."

After speaking, Zhu Biao got up and was ready to leave. His demands on Zhu Xi have not been high, even very low, but Zhu Xi's performance today really disappointed him. No, then be a pig honestly.

Zhu Biao was also a little puzzled. A few years ago, Zhu Xi was still a little energetic. He was very good at arching, riding and shooting, but he was clamoring to defend the frontier. Why did he become so decadent all of a sudden?

Everyone in the room was trembling, not understanding why His Royal Highness looked good when he came in, but why he suddenly became angry, Zhu Biao was about to step out of the inner hall, Zhu Xi's personal eunuch ran to kneel in front of him and kowtowed.

"Calm down, my highness. My highness is just wronged for a while. He has always respected you the most. Your highness will definitely regret it after leaving like this. You can say a few more words for the sake of brotherhood for many years. The servant is begging you."

Seeing this, Liu Jin also persuaded: "His Royal Highness King Jin is young, please forgive me a little..."

Zhu Biao also understood how his father felt just now, and he was so suffocated when others tried to persuade him that he really wanted to turn around and throw some salt on Zhu Xi's ass.

At this moment, there was movement and exclamation from a group of court ladies and eunuchs. Zhu Biao heard the movement without turning around, a relatively dull sound and the sound of gasping for air.

Zhu Xi came with a trembling voice: "Brother, I know I was wrong."

"Get out!"

The moment Zhu Biao's voice came out, everyone bowed and retreated quickly. Only the two brothers were left in the inner hall. He asked in a deep voice, ""Where did you go wrong? "

Zhu Xi felt that her butt was very painful and wet. She didn't know if the ointment had melted or the wound burst and blood flowed out. The pain and grievances were mixed in her heart, and she only felt that she was very pitiful.

"I shouldn't be obsessed with pleasure and waste my martial arts regardless of my body, I shouldn't be with a group of dandies and let down the painstaking efforts of my father and elder brother, I shouldn't be implicated by ignorance of repentance..."

Said that he had already started to choke up, after all, he was only a teenager, and he was suddenly beaten up by his father, and his injury was not healed, and then he was taught by his elder brother, naturally, there were thousands of grievances and helplessness in his heart.

"Second brother, you are the biggest among all the brothers besides me, and you should be an example for the younger brothers, but do you see that you have the appearance of being an elder brother?"

"Let's not talk about the third and fourth, now even the fifth and sixth are stronger than you. You must achieve something in your life, don't you really want to live your whole life without writing or writing, and finally die in a woman's belly? "

"Yes, second child, you are the king of Jin, your father is the emperor, and your elder brother is the prince. There is no reason to say that you are born to enjoy this honor. Who can have no one who is worthless? If you really If you think so, then both elder brother and father will help you."

Zhu Xi wiped the tears and snot from his face and cried, "No, don't..."

Without saying a word, Zhu Biao went straight out of Zhu Xi's palace. A group of court ladies and eunuchs were neatly kneeling outside. Seeing His Royal Highness come out, they all buried their heads deeply.

Zhu Biao looked at them and sighed, the disparity in fate between people is so great, these slaves are all about the same age as Zhu Xi, but one can still be willful, while the other group is precarious hand.

"Get up, take good care of King Jin, and then ask Imperial Doctor Zhang to come over and prescribe medicine."

"promise"

After Zhu Biao gave his orders, he walked towards the East Palace. Liu Jin and others hurriedly followed. The atmosphere along the way was quite dull. Just as he passed through the Huagai Palace and was about to return to the East Palace, Zhu Biao suddenly stopped and turned around and walked towards the Wuying Palace.

Liu Jin and the others didn't dare to ask any more questions, so they could only follow silently. After a while, they arrived at the back of the Wuying Hall. The king of Chu, Zhu Xi, and the king of Qi, Zhu Di, were still working hard. , I thought he came to see a joke just like noon.

After Zhu Biao walked in, he dismissed the official from the household department who came to salute, then took off his heavy robe, went to the field full of ravines, picked up a hoe, pouted twice in his palm, and then started digging with the hoe.

Zhu Xi and Zhu Di looked at their elder brother quite unexpectedly, but they could also see that he was not in a good mood, so they didn't ask any more questions, and followed suit.

After more than an hour, today's work is almost done. Lao Zhu didn't come today, probably because there is another emergency to deal with, but Zhu Biao is not worried, the world is too big, and it is normal for news to be seriously delayed.

It may take more than a month for the document to be sent, and it may be ten days and a half months ago for the urgent report to be delivered. In this case, political decision makers need to have a calm demeanor, because the urgent Can't solve any problem.

As long as the central government is not chaotic, local affairs can be resolved as a whole, which is why it is necessary to centralize power. Since the fastest response cannot be guaranteed, the maximum power should be guaranteed.

After working for an hour, Zhu Biao's slightly recovered wrist swelled and softened a little. This is a normal physiological phenomenon, and there is nothing to make a fuss about. Moreover, all the strength in his body has been exhausted, and there is also a kind of refreshing and relaxing feeling.

After saying hello to his two younger brothers, Zhu Biao went back to the East Palace. After taking a bath and changing clothes, he had dinner with his concubine, and after a little exercise, they took a rest together.

Lying on the soft bed, Zhu Biao lay on his side and stretched out a hand to gently put it on the princess's swollen belly. I don't know if it was because of the reason that he had just eaten, the two little guys inside were also constantly moving. .

Although the feeling is not very clear, it is amazing to be able to roughly guess whether it is a small fist or a small foot. Zhu Biao has never been a woman in two lifetimes, so he really does not know what it is like to have two small lives in his stomach.

"Your Highness seems to be in a bad mood today. Is it because of the government affairs in the court? Or is it because of uncle's business?"

Zhu Biao said softly: "Neither, it's just an inexplicable bad mood. I'm a little worried about how our children should be educated in the future. As for the matter of Lan Yu, you don't have to worry about it. Everything is up to me."

Chang Luohua also stretched out his hand to cover her husband's hand: "Your Highness has everything, and concubines are really lucky."

Zhu Biao shifted his gaze from her belly to her bright eyes and smiled, "Yeah, how could you be so lucky."

The couple looked at each other and smiled, then moved closer and fell asleep with their eyes closed. The long night of starlight was swept away by a round of red sun. Zhu Biao and his wife got up and washed separately, and then had breakfast together in the main hall. Zhu Biao accompanied her for a stroll After walking around, I didn't go out to the East Palace to get busy or go to the Wenhua Palace to read as usual.

It's rare to play chess and paint with Chang Luohua. The two of them are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so they can play together. At noon, they go fishing on the south side of Wenhua Hall. Jinling has many rivers. The new city is still built to fill Yanque Lake, and there are many natural water flows through it.

After a leisurely and pleasant morning, after lunch, the princess was asked to take a nap. The smile on Zhu Biao's face gradually disappeared. He found that his mood was really easy to change recently, and he was happy and depressed quickly. This is a boy. Will there be a period of physiological low tide?

Zhu Biao shook his head and asked Liu Jin who was beside him: "How is the morning court today, what's the big deal?"

Liu Jin replied: "I still quarreled for a long time about the matter of Lanyu. The minister of the Ministry of punishment asked Lanyu to be punished to protect the court's discipline, and Yan Donglai, the minister of Dali Temple, used punishment to despise the world. To persuade and defend the case, the rest of the officials have expressed their views, but they are still at a stalemate and let it go for the time being."
