Chapter 56

The eldest prince officially moved into the old palace.

From the moment Zhu Yuanzhang's carriage drove out of Dazhong Street, the news blew through every corner of Yingtian Mansion like the warm wind of early summer.

In teahouses, restaurants, streets and alleys, no matter how busy the people of the capital are with their livelihoods, they can always spare some time to exchange the latest news about the eldest prince with others mysteriously.

Some daring scholars have already begun to conceive a story book for this great prince who has lived among the people since childhood.

Different from the hustle and bustle of the people, the court hall, which should be very lively, is completely silent at this time.

In many cases, calm water indicates that bigger storms are coming.

But it is also possible to prove that this is a pool of stagnant water.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang had some complaints about Zhu Yuanzhang's decision to let Zhu Ji directly live in the Wu Palace without notifying the courtiers, no one in the court dared to vent this resentment, even those stunned young people who had just entered the officialdom.

They still vividly remember the scene of kneeling down in Fengtian Temple that day.

What's more, if you think about it from another angle, the matter of the First Prince staying in the old palace has already been decided.And the person in charge is the chief of ceremonies, with the emperor's domineering character, there is no point in telling them again.

As for Prince Wu's Mansion, which caused this storm, the gate has never been reopened since it was closed again.

Without going out of the door, and not going through the second door, Zhu Ji's life fell into a monotonous cycle.The morning bell and evening drum of Cheng'en Temple timed him, and the Buxu White Crane of Dongshen Palace accompanied him.

Study literature with Liu Bowen in the morning, learn etiquette with Lu Ben in the afternoon, and practice martial arts after dinner.

The transformation from a salted fish to a busy person took place overnight, and Zhu Ji used the hard work of the days before the college entrance examination in his previous life. This change surprised Zhu Biao who came to visit.

"The way of civil and martial arts is one piece, one piece, one piece, so why do you have to work so hard?"

At that time Zhu Ji was repeating the movement of offering sacrifices to the ancestral temple, but being interrupted by Zhu Biao, the movement of his hand was a step slower, and this practice completely failed.

Glancing at Zhu Biao with angry eyes, Zhu Ji returned to the starting position of the whole set of etiquette:
"Little brother, if you interrupt my practice again, I'll kick you out right away. If there is news of disharmony between the Tian family brothers in the capital, don't blame me for not reminding you, our father will whip you with the sole of his shoe." of."

To say that Zhu Biao is also a master who dared to run when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang lifting his shoes.

But if you can run away, the monk can't run away from the temple.

Zhu Biao knew that if he was really kicked out by his elder brother today, he would definitely not be able to escape if his father slapped the soles of his shoes.

He simply shut his mouth obediently, and watched Zhu Ji complete both sides of this set of etiquette. Seeing that the sun was almost setting, Zhu Biao finally got a chance to speak.

"Brother, the younger brothers miss you, and look forward to your visit to the palace."

Rubbing his aching buttocks, Zhu Biao grinned and relayed the expectations of Zhu Xi and the others.

"Tell me, who made a mistake and was afraid of being beaten, and someone found you, the crown prince? You still expect me to go to the palace, maybe you want to get my consent, so come here to take refuge."

How can Zhu Ji not understand that Zhu Biao is here to be a lobbyist.

Except for Zhu Yu, who she pleaded for, would anyone else think of herself that way for no reason?Moreover, the matter of allowing himself to enter the palace is definitely not something that the two concubine princes, Zhu Zhen and Zhu Wei, dare to bring up.

They didn't dare, and they didn't have that much face, so it was worth Zhu Biao's trip in person.

Only when the four biological brothers of Empress Ma, Zhu Xun, Zhu Xun, Zhu Di, and Zhu Xun made mistakes, and Zhu Biao felt that he could not protect them, would he find himself here.

Zhu Biao, who wanted to fool the whole story, knew that he couldn't hide this trick from Zhu Ji, so he smiled awkwardly at Zhu Ji twice, and then began to smooth things over for himself:
"Brother, I've thought too much. The younger brothers really miss you. Although the third child, oh, it's Zhu Yan, who didn't listen to the instructions in class today, so he was sued by the master before the emperor."

"With the character of the old man, shouldn't he finish today's affairs, and immediately go to the Wenhua Palace to beat his shoe soles after hearing the master's complaint? Why did you find me here?"

Zhu Ji thought in his heart, what a big deal this little shit is.

No matter how much Master Guorui cared about the education of his heirs, it would be impossible for this kid Zhu Yan to be so frightened.

Isn't it just a meal of shoe soles? After so many years, don't you get used to it long ago?
But after thinking about it, Zhu Ji couldn't help frowning.

Lord Guorui, who can release the pigeons of civil and military officials, diverts to Wenhua Palace to smoke bear children in the early court, so it makes no sense to leave the matter of Zhu Yan until tomorrow after the court.

This is not New Year's Eve.

Chaozhong, something happened.

It is still a major event that is enough to give Zhu Yuanzhang a headache.

"There is an accident in the court, you as a prince, you should go back early and learn how to clean up the mess with the old man. As for the matter of Zhu Yan, the old man probably doesn't have time to pay attention to him for the time being."

It seems that if there is no suitable solution for Zhu Yan, this little brother will inevitably panic, and maybe he will do something stupid to make trouble for Lord Guorui again, Zhu Jilin added another sentence:
"If he is still afraid, he can go to mother and ask him to come to me to avoid him. But you have also seen that when he comes to me, if he doesn't obey the restraint, I will beat him for the old man."

Hearing Zhu Ji's inexplicable words, Zhu Biao blinked his eyes, and looked at Zhu Ji with some puzzlement:

"Brother, how do you know something happened in the court?"

No one has ever told him that he is a prince. Given Zhu Ji's state of being a prince, how did he know?
Zhu Biao looked at Lu Ben who was waiting not far away, and shook his head secretly.

Don't say that Lu Ben, who has long been demoted to a handyman, is even Liu Bowen, who is still holding the title of participating in politics in Zhejiang. He lives in seclusion in this Prince Wu's mansion, and there is no source of information at all.

"Guess."

Zhu Ji's words are concise and to the point, so Zhu Biao still doesn't understand why.

Guess?He also wanted to guess if it was because his elder brother thought he was an eyesore, so he found an excuse to let him go.

Others can't do this, but my big brother can't say for sure.

Seeing Zhu Biao's suspicious expression, Zhu Ji felt like his head was getting bigger.Brothers from other people's family are talking about the most basic trust between people, why are my little brothers, one by one, plastic brotherhood?

In order to bring his brother back to his true self as soon as possible, Zhu Ji still decided to patiently explain to the prince who didn't believe in him.

Following Zhu Ji's narration, Zhu Biao gradually opened his mouth.

He was not only surprised by Zhu Ji's understanding of their father and son, but also shocked by Zhu Ji's keen sense of smell.

But more, he was still worried about the big event that Zhu Ji said.Drought, flood, locust and plague soldiers, what kind of disaster is it that makes his father put such an important thing as beating children behind?
