Ming Dynasty: The ghost betrays the Confucian sage, my son Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 24 Zhu Biao, is that the fourth child? Shame on you!

Zhu Di didn't know that the carriage behind him was his eldest brother, but he stopped.

His eyes fell on a little girl coming towards him in front of him. She was about seven or eight years old.

Wearing a long blue dress, her green hair was as smooth as a waterfall, hanging naturally on her slender waist, fluttering gently with her light steps, revealing an indescribable grace and elegance.

Her face is delicate, her skin is fair and delicate, her eyes are deep and bright, her nose is high and her lips are as red as cherries, slightly upturned with a sweet smile.

Zhu Di couldn't help but walked towards her and clasped his fists: "Dare you ask the girl her name?"

Fourth Master Zhu, who was not far away, couldn't help being stunned when he saw this scene.

Damn it, this guy already knows how to pick up girls at the age of eight?

"Hey, whose kid is this?" a middle-aged man next to the little girl shouted angrily.

Fourth Master Zhu covered his face, quickly went up to grab Zhu Di, and clasped his fists at the middle-aged man: "I'm sorry, your daughter is so cute and charming. This bastard of mine fell in love with her at first sight."

"Gan! Old gangster."

The middle-aged man became angry instantly. He rolled up his sleeves and said angrily, "No wonder I taught a little gangster. I can't beat you to death today."

Before he finished speaking, he raised his fist and flew towards Fourth Master Zhu.

However, Fourth Master Zhu did not move at all. He just stretched out his fingers like eagle talons and firmly grasped the middle-aged man's fist. The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically and he hurriedly kicked him away. But Fourth Master Zhu was faster. He struck first and kicked the middle-aged man hard in the stomach.

Whoosh!
The middle-aged man was kicked out and fell heavily to the ground.

Fourth Master Zhu picked up Zhu Di and ran away.

"Master, why are you running? It's not like you can't do it."

"Didn't you see so many people gathered around you? I won't be embarrassed if you tease the little girl, but I will be."

The two of them disappeared in a flash.

……

Seeing the middle-aged man fall to the ground, the little girl hurriedly stepped forward to help him and asked with concern: "Uncle Gu, are you okay?"

The middle-aged man struggled to stand up, his expression still a bit horrified, and murmured to himself: "I didn't expect that such a strong master would come out of the capital."

He took the little girl and left quickly.

Zhu Biao, who was in a sedan chair not far away, witnessed this scene.

He was going to call Zhu Di, but he stopped when he saw that Zhu Di was teasing the little girl.

Shameful, so shameful.

What did the fourth boy learn outside?
You have to ask your father carefully when you get back, what kind of master did he find for the fourth child?
"Let's go." He waved to the guard.

The carriage continued to drive towards the palace.

Zhu Biao thought about the scene just now, with doubts in his eyes.

He knew the middle-aged man, General Gu Cheng, and the little girl should be the daughter of General Xu Da.

Gu Cheng has been following Xu Da. Because he was injured, he just came back from the front line some time ago and lives in Xu Mansion.

From this point of view, Lao Si's master was really a master, and he actually kicked General Gu Cheng away.

But so what?
The fourth son is a great prince, don't become a hooligan like him.

"Your Highness, are you going back to the East Palace or to the Wenhua Palace?" the guard asked.

"Go to Wenhua Hall." Zhu Biao said.

Not long after, we arrived at Wenhua Hall.

This is the place where Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang went to criticize and discuss politics after coming to court. Today, the court will have a rest, but Zhu Yuanzhang will not rest.

Zhu Biao walked in and bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang: "My son, I will see my father."

"Biao'er, are you going to watch the fun?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked without raising his head.

"It's very lively. Most of the officials from the DPRK and the Central Government have gone." Zhu Biao said.

"Has Liu Bowen gone?" Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyes and asked.

"No." Zhu Biao looked confused, "It's strange, Yang Xian is Mr. Liu's apprentice. This apprentice has both a birthday and a promotion, but Mr. Liu didn't even go to congratulate him."

Zhu Yuanzhang stopped the pen in his hand and smiled coldly:
"Biao'er, this is Liu Bowen's greatness. Liu Bowen is the only one in the government and the public who can figure out our thoughts."

"Humph, he is very smart. Yang Xian was promoted to Prime Minister yesterday, and today he held a big banquet, haha, so ostentatious. He, Liu Bowen, would not join in the fun." Zhu Biao nodded slowly.

In his heart, neither Li Shanchang nor Yang Xian can be compared with Mr. Liu.

……

"Father, I saw the fourth child on the way back." Zhu Biao frowned, "Father, what kind of master did you find for the fourth child?"

He recounted what happened on the way back.

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed when he heard this: "The fourth child molested the eldest daughter of Xu Da's family? Gah gah, this kid is a bit brave, just like us when we were young."

Zhu Biao has a black line on his head.

Is this the time to praise him?

Like when you were a kid? Do you still dare to tease the daughter of Mr. Liu’s family?

"Biao'er, don't worry, the master we have found for Fourth is not an ordinary person." Zhu Yuanzhang spread his hands, "Four will not study well in the main hall, so let him be."

"Who is the old gentleman? Father, do you trust him so much?" Zhu Biao was confused.

"That is a strong man, we absolutely trust him." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Zhu Biao stopped asking.

What my father has decided cannot be changed.

"Biao'er, don't tell your mother about this," Zhu Yuanzhang reminded.

"I know." Zhu Biao nodded helplessly, "My son went to the main hall to study."

"Okay, later on, my father will test you in person." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

He watched the prince leave. He was satisfied with his son, but he was also strict with him.

The sons of the emperor are different from the sons of officials, officials, and common people. The sons of public ministers, scholars and common people are related to the prosperity and decline of a family; the sons of the emperor are related to the safety of the world.

Therefore, he paid special attention to Zhu Biao's education.

Zhu Biao wanted to learn the ways of emperors, the teachings of etiquette and music, the successes and failures of the past, and folk farming.

Zhu Yuanzhang often used his own sufferings to teach the prince and let him understand the difficulty of starting a business.

To his relief, Zhu Biao learned well.

He was born in peace and happiness, but he has no dandy habits. He is decisive in dealing with problems and has the style of a Confucian.

……

evening.

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished approving the notes, he came to the small courtyard on the Qinhuai River.

When he entered the door, he saw Fourth Master Zhu and Zhu Di studying. He rubbed his eyes and thought he had seen it wrong.

In his mind, the fourth child was not good at reading. Why was he reading so seriously and so devotedly now?
He didn't know that the reason why Fourth Master Zhu asked Zhu Di to study was because Zhu Di could help him cultivate Haoran Qi by studying.

The more serious Zhu Di becomes, the brighter the Book of Luck in Master Zhu's mind shines. He was plucking Zhu Di's wool.

"Fourth Master, little bastard, we have brought you food." Zhu Yuanzhang shouted.

"It's great to come, I'm really hungry." Fourth Master Zhu greeted.

"Uncle Zhu, why are you here again? Is your office okay?" Zhu Di rolled his eyes.

"You bastard, you want me to take care of you, right?" Zhu Yuanzhang glared.

Zhu Di complained, but he still cleared the table obediently and set out the dishes.

The three of them sat down and started eating.

The orange-red rays of the setting sun filtered through the gaps in the leaves and scattered on the table, adding a touch of warm color to the simple meal.

The yard is filled with the aroma of food and the faint fragrance of locust flowers.

"I plan to open an academy." Fourth Master Zhu said.

"What? The leader of the Beggar Clan opens an academy?" Zhu Yuanzhang was annoyed, "Who gave you the confidence?"

　Brothers, throw your recommendation votes and monthly tickets into my face, I feel embarrassed.
