Chapter 193 Prince Min
Zhu Zhanjun thought that Hu Shanxiang had gone down and dispersed the noisy people, and he would have a moment of peace. Unexpectedly, there was an even louder noise later.

However, this was not because someone did not show respect to Prince Zheng, but because someone started fighting in another attic nearby, making a huge noise as everyone watched.

The noise made Zhu Zhanquan very unhappy. He immediately frowned and stood up from his seat. He came to the corridor outside the attic and looked to the side. He saw a few young people in rich clothes fighting with each other. There were people nearby trying to break up the fight.

The young men who were struggling together didn't seem to have learned any kung fu. They just hugged and threw each other roughly, waving their fists and beating them casually.

But it seems that these few people are not of low status. At least the people nearby who tried to stop the fight did not dare to go up and separate them. Even the shopkeeper of Tingtaoshui Pavilion could only stand by and watch these young people put them aside. The tables, chairs and dishes in the attic were smashed to pieces.

Zhu Zhanchun couldn't help but frown slightly. He didn't want to care about this matter, but he accidentally heard someone shouting "Prince Min". This made his eyes move involuntarily, and then he jumped deep from the attic where he was, and came Arriving at the attic where a fight was taking place.

Everyone who was trying to break up the fight was startled when they saw a person suddenly flying in from the corridor outside.

But soon someone recognized Zhu Zhanjun and showed an even more frightened expression. For a moment, he didn't know what to do.

Zhu Zhanjun didn't bother to talk nonsense. He walked forward and directly pulled the several people who were fighting together and threw them aside.

Several people who had been trying to stop the fight just now, like followers or personal followers, hurriedly gathered around and helped the master of each family up. While they were checking whether there was any damage or injury, the discerning ones also hurriedly reported to their masters King Zheng. Here's the thing.

After being forcibly pulled away, several young people who were still a little angry heard that King Zheng was beside them. The more rational ones quickly looked around, looking for Zhu Zhanchun.

But there were also one or two young and energetic people who still wanted to have another match to determine the winner, but they were all held back by the people around them.

Seeing that these people stopped taking action, Zhu Zhanqi looked at them and asked, "Who are you? Why are you fighting here?"

Hearing Zhu Zhanju's question, a young man walked up to him and took the initiative to explain.

These young people are all descendants of noble families in Beijing. They were originally divided into two groups to come to Taoshui Pavilion to have a drink today. However, because they were competing for a singer, the two groups started to quarrel. During the quarrel, no one knew Whoever made the move first, everyone started to struggle together until Zhu Zhanquan separated them.

Speaking of which, some of these people are Zhu Zhanqun's elders. After all, there are many vassal kings of the same generation as Zhu Di. Their descendants can now study in the reopened Dabentang in Beijing. In terms of seniority, they are indeed One generation higher than Zhu Zhanyu.

However, it is obvious that these young people still know how much they weigh, and no one dares to show off their elders' identity in front of Zhu Zhancheng.

Knowing what happened, Zhu Zhanjun didn't bother to tell them right from wrong. He just said to them: "I don't care who did it. If you break someone else's things, you should pay compensation according to the price. Where is the other singer?" ?”

These noble disciples didn't have any objections to Zhu Zhankun asking them to lose money. With a powerful vassal king here, they didn't dare to complain or do anything.

And for these noble children, money is actually secondary, and face is more important.

Being suppressed by King Zheng, they all lost face, even if they didn't lose face, it was just a matter of paying some money. These noble sons had no idea of ​​revenge afterwards.As for the singer who caused the fight, she was quickly called in front of Zhu Zhanchun, looking frightened as if she was in a state of panic.

He briefly comforted the singer, who looked to be in her teens, and then asked the shopkeeper about the singer. When he learned that the singer belonged to a nearby brothel, Zhu Zhanchen thought for a while before taking something out of his sleeves. He took out a silver ingot and threw it to the shopkeeper: "Go and buy this singer for me."

The shopkeeper took the order and hurriedly asked the clerk to handle the matter.

Buying the singer was just a casual decision for Zhu Zhanchun. Although the law clearly prohibited slave-keeping and human trafficking, being of low status was not a good citizen.

However, Zhu Zhanquan was really not interested in raising a singer himself. He just turned around and looked at these young people again. Remembering why he came to get involved in this matter, he asked: "Who is the Crown Prince of Min? "

At this time, the person next to him who had just started the fight stood up, saluted Zhu Zhanquan and said: "The Crown Prince of Min, Zhu Huiyan, has met Prince Zheng."

In terms of seniority, Zhu Huiyan is the same generation as Zhu Zhancheng's fat father Zhu Gaochi, but he is not much older than Zhu Zhancheng and looks more like a peer.

After all, King Min Zhu is Zhu Yuanzhang’s 18th son. He was born in the 12th year of Hongwu. He is one year younger than Zhu Zhanquan’s fat father. He has been in poor circumstances since then. It is not surprising that his son was born late. .

As for the identities of the two, let alone mentioning it. Today, Zhu Zhanquan is the most popular and powerful vassal king in the Ming Dynasty. He conquered the Japanese country and brought back millions of taels of silver. He can be said to be the leader of all vassals. He is a poor man. How could the eldest son of a vassal king, who didn't even have a fiefdom, be compared with the powerful vassal king who was almost the most powerful vassal king in the world.

However, Zhu Zhanquan was quite friendly to the Crown Prince of Min. He just asked him: "How is your uncle, King of Min, doing well recently? Is there any shortage of food and clothing in the house? I want to visit him someday, but I don't know if it is convenient." ?”

"His Royal Highness Prince Zheng wants to pay a visit. This is of course convenient!" Zhu Huiyan hurriedly expressed his welcome.

Just kidding, the Min King's line has been in a state of decline ever since they were forced back to the capital by the Mu family of Yunnan and lost their fiefdom. Their lives now are quite miserable.

The other vassals are all making great achievements in their respective fiefdoms, and the Sai kings on the border are even thinking about going out to expand their territories. Only the Minwang vassal, not to mention the fiefdoms, even the guards have not been able to do so until now. It was almost cut clean by Zhu Di.

Now Zhu Zhanquan said that he wanted to pay a visit, not to mention what benefits it would bring, but to try to improve the treatment of the Minwang family. This visit to send some expensive gifts could also improve the lives of the Minwang family today.

You must know that according to the new policy of the sects and vassals, the salaries of each vassal are now collected from the fiefdoms themselves, not allocated by the court.

The Minwang clan had no fiefdom, so life was naturally a bit miserable.

Otherwise, Zhu Huiyan was still a vassal prince just now, and he would not be standing on the sidelines as a follower for others.
