King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 259 How can this be
After leaving Jia's mansion, he got on the sedan chair.

Zhu Jinghong couldn't help recalling the scene just now, and Wang Xifeng's figure lingered around him again.

Damn...have I never seen a woman?To be so nostalgic for a married woman is really unreasonable...

Zhu Jinghong couldn't help complaining about himself. He thought he was a gentleman, but now he realized that he was indeed no different from Cao thief.

"Why don't you just ask the old man to make me king of Wei after you go back?"

"Forget it, forget it, the title of King Wei is unlucky, I don't want to be as virtuous as Li Tai!"

When Zhu Jinghong was rushing back, Zhu Xianming, who learned that Jia She's brother was fine, drove back to Ningshou Palace again.

At this moment, only the emperor and his father and son were in the main hall, and all the serving ladies and eunuchs were called out.

"Father, I'll just say something straight!"

"Speak!"

"If you still understand, you will know the consequences of lying to me!" Zhu Xianming's eyes were gloomy, like a beast.

Zhu Xinkan sighed, and replied: "You still don't understand my intentions, otherwise you will know that I won't lie to you!"

Zhu Xianming stopped talking nonsense, and said bluntly: "It's very good...you and my father and son reconcile, and the world will be safe tomorrow!"

Looking at his son with a gloomy expression, Zhu Xinkan said meaningfully: "My Ming Dynasty has been inherited for more than 200 years, and the inheritance has been stable for more than [-] years. Since the ancestors, there has been bloody blood. The past of Li and Tang is a lesson for us. We must not repeat the same mistakes!"

Hearing this, Zhu Xianming suddenly stood up and said coldly, "My son, no more blood will be shed!"

"hope so!"

When the father and son were at a stalemate, they heard the sound of discussion from outside, and it was Zhu Jinghong who entered the palace gate.

It's not like he's late, after all, the banquet is about to start.

"Master Thirteen, you've come!"

"Two months ago, my younger brother gave you the smoked tea, did you still like it?"

"Brother Thirteen, we haven't seen each other for a long time, let's drink two more glasses today!"

Just like the presence of Zhu Jingyuan and the other two, all the clans present rushed to greet Zhu Jinghong, regardless of their titles.

Only a few elders of the royal family were relatively calm, but they still stood up to salute when Zhu Jinghong approached.

"Uncle Jiu, you've gotten a little fatter again!" Zhu Jinghong took the initiative to say.

Zhongshun Wang Zhu Xianmao replied with a smile: "The thirteen virtuous nephews, the world is peaceful and the country is fine, so we naturally have a broad mind and a fat body!"

Zhu Jinghong was about to say more, but Zhu Jingyuan's voice came from the side: "Thirteenth brother, why are you here now?"

"Yo...fourth brother!"

Greeting him, Zhu Jinghong replied with a smile: "The old man asked me to do something, so it's not too late!"

Seeing him addressing the emperor like that, everyone in the room just pretended they didn't hear it, let alone report to the emperor.

At this time, Zhu Jingyuan asked: "What is the errand, today is such an important day, you dare to delay?"

Although there were many clans at the scene, the seats were also very particular, and they were arranged completely according to the rank of title, so Zhu Jingyuan and Zhu Jingyuan were at the same table.

Of course, now that Zhu Jinghong is here, there are three of them at this table.

Before Zhu Jinghong could reply, the crown prince Zhu Jingyuan said again: "Stop the gossip, hurry up and pay your respects to the Supreme Emperor!"

With a slap on the forehead, Zhu Jinghong quickly responded, "This is the most important thing!"

Without saying much, Zhu Jinghong rushed straight to the main hall.

But as soon as he entered the door, he sensed that the atmosphere was not right, so he instinctively lowered his head.

"Father, grandpa... I'm late!"

Zhu Xianming was still indifferent, but Zhu Xinkan showed a smile: "Today Shangshi has prepared a lot of delicacies, it would be a pity to miss the banquet!"

However, before Zhu Jinghong could reply, Zhu Xianming scolded him, "Why don't you hurry up and pay your respects to your grandfather? It's useless to hurt you!"

There was no other way, Zhu Jinghong could only kneel on the ground, kowtowed and said: "Grandson kowtows to grandpa, wishing grandpa good fortune like the East China Sea, and a longer life than Nanshan!"

"Wait, get up!" Zhu Xinkan became more and more kind.

But after Zhu Jinghong got up, Zhu Xianming asked coldly again: "Look at what clothes you... are wearing?"

Dresses were used for the banquet today, but Zhu Jinghong came here in such a hurry that he didn't have time to go back to Chengming Courtyard to change, so he was wearing Yisa and a hat with a folded brim at the moment.

"Father, just after my son has made great achievements, you still look down on me, it's too..."

Zhu Xianming stared, and asked, "What's too much?"

"It's too... too..."

When Zhu Jinghong racked his brains, he heard Zhu Xinkan explain: "Okay, the fourth, since the younger thirteen has made great achievements today, let's be more lenient to him!"

"Today your grandfather intercedes with you, and the offense of disrespect will be avoided. If you are restless in the future, you will be severely punished!"

"Yes, yes, son, remember!"

"Go out, look at you and get angry!"

"Yes... my son is going out now!" Zhu Jinghong repeatedly apologized, and then retreated in a hurry.

"Xiao Shisan is doing things properly, why are you so strict with him?"

"The old thirteen acts recklessly, if he is not strictly disciplined... maybe he will cause disaster!"

While the father and son were chatting in the hall, Zhu Jinghong had already returned to the table.

"I just finished my errand, and the old man scolded me? Fourth brother and sixth brother... Do you think he has a bad character?"

Good guy, Zhu Jinghong's words were really fierce in front of so many people talking about Jun father, which shocked everyone nearby.

Of course, they will never spread rumors, and no one can bear the crime of alienating the relationship between the emperor and his son.

It was still the prince Zhu Jingyuan who said, "Old Thirteen, don't speak nonsense!"

The sixth child on the side immediately interjected: "Thirteenth brother, father is a bit strict with you, this is to love you!"

"As a courtier, you and I need to understand more!"

Zhu Jinghong replied: "Sixth brother, you are right, I am not sensible!"

Seeing the two brothers singing together, Zhu Jingyuan felt uncomfortable, and immediately said: "Thirteenth brother, what did you do today? Why did you delay until now?"

That is to say, Zhu Jingyuan doesn't care about world affairs, and Zhu Jingyuan beside him is a clean boy.

Signaling the eunuch to pour wine, Zhu Jinghong replied casually, "Actually, it's nothing, just caught some thieves..."

While the three brothers were talking, the banquet officially began soon.

There are many rules in the royal family. After performing more than a dozen ceremonies, everyone can eat and drink freely.

Everyone aimed at the three brothers Zhu Jinghong, toasting back and forth in an endless stream, making the three of them dizzy.

After about half an hour, the banquet was considered over.

The emperor had already left early, the Supreme Emperor also had a rest due to his fatigue, all the clan had to disperse separately, the drunken crown prince and Prince Rui were no exception.

When Zhu Jinghong returned to Chengming Courtyard, Yinglian was already waiting in the bedroom.

Helping Zhu Jinghong to sit on the chair, Deng An said with a smile: "Miss Yinglian, I will leave it to you!"

"Ok!"

After Yinglian agreed, Deng An withdrew from the door and closed the door behind her.

Yinglian was familiar with the road, and she was about to wipe Zhu Jinghong's face after wringing out the towel, but the latter hugged her into her arms.

"It's even bigger!"

"Master Thirteen, don't talk nonsense!"

Zhu Jinghong raised his head and asked with a smile, "Why? Is it wrong to tell the truth?"

Yinglian turned her head and said shyly, "How can you talk like that!"

"Let's play a game!"

"what game?"

Yinglian was full of vigilance, because Zhu Jinghong played too much, which often made her feel embarrassed.

Zhu Jinghong beckoned: "Come here with your ears...I'll tell you quietly!"

Yinglian could only stretch her head to listen, but after Zhu Jinghong said a few words, Yinglian panicked and said, "Master Thirteen, how can this be possible!"
