The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 165 Concubine Ning
Night, full of stars.

On the banks of the Qinhuai River, Zhu Ying's house.

After being in contact with Chang Fu, Lan Yu and others, Zhu Ying has a deep understanding of Lan Yu and others.

At the same time, I also understand that it is obvious that no one is vulgar to be able to reach the current high position, just relying on luck.

Although Lan Yu is a bit arrogant, but to be the leader of the Huaixi generals group, wisdom is not lacking.

When Zhu Ying left Changfu, she had clearly felt that Lan Yu's sense of her had changed.

Of course, he would not think that with his good arrow skills, he would subdue Sapphire and follow him willingly and wholeheartedly. In the end, it was driven by interests.

However, it is a good start to show your muscle strength, and there is still enough time in the future.

After all, the old man's health is getting better and better. Even if according to the original history, he has six years to live, according to the current situation, it will only be longer.

Even if it is only six years, if Zhu Ying is still unable to control the military power and suppress Daming, he can find a piece of tofu and kill himself.

"Boss, drink some tea and wake up the bar."

Ye Yueqing took the tea brought by Zhao Xiangxi, handed it to Zhu Ying and said.

Zhu Ying took it and drank it all in one gulp. The alcohol content is not low now. Although she can resist it, her mouth is still somewhat dry.

Under the moonlight, Ye Yueqing and Zhao Xiangxi looked even more attractive, and under the drunken eyes, a strange aura permeated.

Zhao Xiangxi was extremely sensitive, and after noticing the gaze, he looked at Dong's family without showing any weakness, and there was a hint of provocation in his eyes.

She sensed an opportunity, and she wanted to seize this opportunity even more.

If Ye Yueqing was not in front of her, she would even want to get closer.

Ye Yueqing lowered his head slightly, a little bit shy, not daring to look directly into Dong's eyes.

The atmosphere became more and more ambiguous, the air became stagnant, and the sound of breathing seemed to become much louder.

At this moment, Uncle Zhang suddenly entered the yard, and the silent aura was suddenly broken.

"Boss, the team from Annan's side has received a letter. They will arrive in the capital in a few days. They reported their identities and came with Xipinghou's team."

Zhang Bo obviously didn't realize this and said directly.

Zhu Ying also came back to her senses, her face became calm again, and she nodded slightly.

A trace of anger flashed in Zhao Xiangxi's eyes, and he gave a fierce stare from a perspective that Uncle Zhang didn't see.

What a great opportunity this is, if I miss it this time, I don't know when the next time will be, she is not Ye Yueqing, the chances of being able to directly contact the boss are too few.

And she knew very well that maybe because of some previous circumstances, Ye Yueqing didn't have much defense against her now, but Zhao Xiangxi noticed that the way his boss looked at her.

After not being as possessive as other men, Zhao Xiangxi knew that it would be difficult to have a chance just relying on her appearance.

If Ye Yueqing had reacted and asked himself to avoid the boss directly when contacting him, then there would be no chance.

She wants to take advantage of this time to deepen her impression in the mind of the boss, so that it is possible to be remembered.

Ye Yueqing was the complete opposite, although there was disappointment on his face, it was more joyful.

Although Ye Yueqing had never been in contact with a man, he didn't know how to respond in the situation just now.

If the owner wants to do something, should he agree directly or tactfully.

She was originally a member of the boss's family, and it was impossible to refuse, and it was the limit of what she could achieve.

"Okay, go to bed early, it's been a busy day, and there are quite a lot of things today."

Zhu Ying got up and said.

In fact, the current Zhu Ying can do whatever she wants and do whatever she wants.

Especially when it comes to women, he is also very clear that it is impossible for Ye Yueqing and Zhao Xiangxi to resist him, even if they are slept together, it is irrelevant.

He is not blind, he sees the beauty of the two of them, if he says he has no idea in his heart, then he is just lying to himself.

It's just that she has experienced the glamorous world in her previous life, feasting and feasting, especially in her previous life when she was in college, the university next door was a certain art college, among which there were so many beauties, she had already formed a certain immunity.

In terms of dressing, makeup and beauty, there is still a certain gap between the beauties of today and the previous life, although the two women are already very good just relying on plain makeup.

But in the previous life, no one had ever seen such a beautiful woman.

Besides, he had never tasted the forbidden fruit, so he didn't have such a hungry thought.

Today, Zhu Yingcai saw Ye Yueqing and Zhao Xiangxi. If they had a direct relationship tonight, Zhu Ying seemed a little unacceptable in her heart.

Just like many single dogs, at the first time, I hope it is a double combination of psychology and physiology, rather than a single love between men and women.

After Zhu Ying finished speaking, she walked directly into the house.

At this time, Zhao Xiangxi had a moment of hesitation in his eyes, finally gritted his teeth lightly, and pushed Ye Yueqing with his hands.

Ye Yueqing turned around and looked suspicious.

Zhao Xiangxi used his eyes to signal the back of his master leaving, Ye Yueqing also reacted, but there was still some hesitation on his face.

It wasn't until the owner was almost in the room, and Zhao Xiangxi urged him again, that he hurriedly followed.

Zhao Xiangxi watched Ye Yueqing and Dong's family walk into the main room together, and couldn't help feeling envious.

"Is there anything else?"

Zhu Ying noticed that Ye Yueqing entered the house with him, so she didn't think much about it, thinking that Ye Yueqing wanted to chat with herself alone.

"I, I'm here to wait for my boss to change clothes."

Ye Yueqing bit her lip and said.

Zhu Ying was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "It's okay, I can come by myself, I have been used to it for so many years, but I am not used to being served by others, you go back to sleep, I have something to do tomorrow morning."

Hearing this, Ye Yueqing was at a loss for a moment, and she mustered up her courage to follow into the house.

Facing the words of the boss, she did not dare to refute, said 'yes', and then opened the door and went out.

In the yard outside the door, Zhao Xiangxi was already heading for the wing room. She expected Ye Yueqing to go in, and estimated that she would wake up tomorrow morning.

But before she could start guessing in her mind, she was speechless and saw the door opened again.

How did Ye Yueqing get in just now, how does he get out now.

"You, why did you come out? Could it be that the boss wants you to bring something." Zhao Xiangxi hurried over and asked in a low voice.

Ye Yueqing said somewhat concealedly: "Don't think about it, my boss is going to sleep, and I will go back to sleep naturally. My boss still has arrangements tomorrow morning, so I have to get up early."

After finishing speaking, Ye Yueqing ignored Zhao Xiangxi, left directly, and went back to his own room, leaving Zhao Xiangxi in a mess.

Daming Palace, inside the Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang was still looking at the memorial in the study. There is no end to things in this world. Even if Zhu Yuanzhang worked day and night, he couldn't finish it.

In order to better build Daming, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally would not let go of any free time.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Ning is here." Liu He said at the door of the study.

Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly taken aback, then nodded and said, "Why is Concubine Ning here, let her in."

"The minister obeys the order."

Not long after, Concubine Ning appeared at the door of the study.

"His Majesty."

At this moment, Concubine Ning is already 50 years old and has no charm, but from her dignified posture and facial features, she can vaguely see that she was beautiful when she was young.

In this huge imperial palace, only Concubine Ning can go directly to Qianqing Palace at this hour without being blocked.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's life, there were three women who had the closest relationship.

There is no doubt that the first is Queen Ma. After the death of Queen Ma, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer stood up.

The second is Concubine Li Shu. In September of the 17th year of Hongwu, after the funeral of Empress Xiaocigao ended, Concubine Li Shu replaced the deceased Empress Ma in charge of the harem.

But not long after, in the following year, in the 18th year of Hongwu, Concubine Li Shu passed away.

Then there is Zhu Yuanzhang's third woman, Concubine Ning, who has been in charge of the harem so far.

Concubine Ning Guo, a native of Haozhou, is from the same hometown as Zhu Yuanzhang.The reason why she became Zhu Yuanzhang's concubine was all due to her father Guo Shanfu.

Before Zhu Yuanzhang made his fortune, Guo Shanfu passed by Guo Shanfu's house, and Guo Shanfu fell in love with Zhu Yuanzhang at a glance.

Guo Shanfu is a family fortune-teller who is good at reading faces, and he can tell at a glance that Zhu Yuanzhang is not ordinary.

In the chaotic situation at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, he not only spent all his wealth to help Zhu Yuanzhang, but also asked his sons Guo Xing and Guo Ying to follow and serve, and also gave his beloved daughter Guo Shi as a concubine to Zhu Yuanzhang.

In this way, the Guo family has been following Zhu Yuanzhang to fight north and south. Later, Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne and canonized Guo as Concubine Ning.

The icing on the cake is not as good as giving charcoal in the snow, and Zhu Yuanzhang is also grateful to Guo Shanfu.

Concubine Ning was in charge of the affairs of the Six Palaces, and the Guo family also became famous. His father, Guo Shanfu, was named the Duke of Ying, and his brothers, Guo Xing and Guo Ying, were named Marquis for their meritorious service.

Although Concubine Guo Ning is not as good as Empress Ma in controlling the Six Palaces, she can also do her best to troubleshoot and solve problems for Zhu Yuanzhang.He was tolerant and generous to others in the harem, and was never jealous.

The eldest brother Guo Xing passed away in Hongwu 17, and his younger brother Guo Ying is now the commander of the imperial guards of the Daming Palace, which shows Zhu Yuanzhang's trust in the Guo family.

"It's so late, why didn't you sleep, and you still come here, maybe there is something wrong." Zhu Yuanzhang put down the memorial and asked with a smile.

"The concubine just misses His Majesty." Concubine Ning walked up to help Zhu Yuanzhang's shoulders.

"Okay, what detours do we have to do with us? Just talk about it." Zhu Yuanzhang lay back slightly and said, with a relaxed tone and no worries.

Concubine Ning asked while pressing, "I heard that Your Majesty slept in Kunning Palace last night."

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang opened his slightly closed eyes and asked, "But someone in the harem said something."

Sensing the change in Zhu Yuanzhang's tone, Concubine Ning said directly: "This concubine heard it herself. Since my sister left, Your Majesty has hardly stepped into Kunning Palace in these years."

"Suddenly heard that His Majesty fell asleep, that's why the concubine wanted to come over and ask."

Zhu Yuanzhang straightened up, Concubine Ning also stopped massaging her hands, and after a little thought, Zhu Yuanzhang asked directly; "Did you hear something, just tell it directly."

Concubine Ning hesitated for a moment when she heard the words, and then said: "To tell you the truth, my concubine has indeed heard a lot of rumors, and I have also heard the rumors about the Xiaoling Mausoleum earlier."

"Last night, my concubine heard people say that His Majesty did not sleep alone in Kunning Palace. This morning, His Majesty's Long Zhu was also mobilized."

"The concubine heard about it and said that it was Xiongying who came back."

Concubine Ning finally said the name.

As a concubine who followed Zhu Yuanzhang before the founding of the Ming Dynasty, she was certainly no stranger to Zhu Xiongying's existence, and had even hugged her many times.

Empress Ma and Concubine Li Shu, as well as Concubine Ning, are very close as sisters.

As the first eldest grandson of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Xiongying is naturally favored by everyone, let alone Concubine Ning.

After today's dinner, Concubine Ning was in the back garden and heard the discussion about Zhu Xiongying. After asking, she couldn't help but went directly to Qianqing Palace.

Concubine Ning had no other thoughts, after all her son Zhu Tan had passed away long ago, and her only relative was her younger brother.

Concubine Ning at this age is also unlikely to have children.

"That's right, the child Xiongying is back. We let the rumors about Xiaoling spread, just to rectify Xiongying's name." Zhu Yuanzhang had nothing to hide in front of Concubine Ning, so he said directly.

Concubine Ning's complexion was a little dignified, and she asked; "Your Majesty, don't blame the concubine for talking too much. When the hero was buried, the concubine also went with him. Your Majesty, don't be fooled by the villain."

If someone else said that about his grandson, Zhu Yuanzhang would have become angry with embarrassment, but this is Concubine Ning, a woman who once fought for him, and her family is his support.

He just explained: "Although we are old, we are still not confused. We can still tell whether it is a human or a ghost. We have already checked the details of the eldest grandson over the years."

"When the time comes, let's ask Jiang Yu to send you a copy of Dasun's information, and you will know why we trust Dasun so much."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang added with a smile: "Have you ever seen the appearance of the grandson? When the grandson enters the palace again in another day, we will let you meet, then you will not think so." gone."

"That appearance, it is almost carved out of the same mold as our eldest son."

"If you want to look like the boss, maybe there are other ways to get it, but if you see it, you will understand why we believe it so much. It is more similar to your sister when she was young."

Hearing that His Majesty was so determined and his words were clear, Concubine Ning was somewhat relieved.

What she is most worried about is that His Majesty will be deceived, or this is someone else's conspiracy.

Things like resurrection from the dead sound like fakes to anyone.

What's more, it has been as long as ten years.

Hearing this, Concubine Ning couldn't help asking: "Isn't Xiongying in the palace today?"

Zhu Yuanzhang heard the words and explained; "The time has not come yet, and it is not suitable for the eldest grandson to enter the palace. He will go to the gunpowder department tomorrow. Let's send him a letter. When he comes back, let's see you later. Then you will come back." You know what we're saying is true."
