Ming Dynasty: Zhu Biao's younger brother, the most rebellious son in history

Chapter 19 Zhu Biao: I have a dog named...

“Hahahahaha…”

Lan Yu stuck out her tongue at Zhu Biao and wanted to run towards him, but she couldn't move because of the rope. Zhu Biao immediately walked up to her, hugged Lan Yu and started to stroke her. Lan Yu also tried hard to get close to Zhu Biao in his arms.

"Oh, my second brother is right. Petting a dog is good for your physical and mental health."

After petting the dog for a while, Zhu Biao felt much more relaxed. He stroked the dog's head and wondered whether he should get a dog himself.

But I don’t have any enemies.

Wang Baobao?
They are the enemy of the Ming Dynasty, not our enemies, so there is no point in giving them a name.

Zhu Biao narrowed his eyes slightly, flipped through the people he knew in his mind, and then one suddenly popped up in his mind.

"old……"

Before the last word was uttered, Zhu Biao immediately shut up.

Even the dog head in my hand doesn’t smell good anymore.

"Why would you give a dog someone else's name?"

Zhu Biao touched Lan Yu's dog head and turned away.

He turned and left the back hall, and did not stay in the Fengxian Hall, but sat outside the Fengxian Hall waiting for Zhu Kai.

After knowing that he was carrying a super ocean-going freighter with him, Zhu Kai disappeared frequently over the past year or so. No matter where they looked for him, they couldn't find him. When everyone was anxious, Zhu Kai would strangely appear in the places they had looked for him.

Zhu Biao also encountered this situation. At first, Zhu Biao was very nervous and sent people to look for it.

But over time he got used to it and just thought that Zhu Kai had sneaked out to play and was waiting for him to come back.

Every time Zhu Biao couldn't find Zhu Kai, he would sit outside Fengxian Hall waiting for him and would not allow anyone to approach Fengxian Hall.

Zhu Biao never asked about Zhu Kai's whereabouts. He believed in Zhu Kai unconditionally and always did.

After about an hour, Zhu Kai's voice came from inside: "Someone, prepare some fruits, vegetables, and meat for me! I'm hungry!"

Hearing Zhu Kai's voice, Zhu Biao's expression was filled with joy. He stood up and walked towards the hall: "Second brother, I'm here to see you!"

"Brother is here?"

When Zhu Kai saw Zhu Biao, he was very happy and said, "Brother, have you heard? I fought against a hundred people alone in the training ground. No one could match me wherever I went. Miss Lan's personal soldiers were scared to death, especially that... that guy whose name I don't know. He cried the hardest. I saw that he was crying so hard and humiliating the prestige of the Ming army, so I tore him apart with my bare hands."

Zhu Biao smiled and said nothing. He pulled Zhu Kai to sit down. Zhu Kai continued to brag about his deeds: "Those two hundred people saw how brave I was and knelt down to beg for mercy, wanting to become my personal soldiers... Oh, who am I, Zhu Kai? How could I possibly keep servants around to serve the young lady? I might as well just beat them to death one by one."

"Brother, I have thought of a nickname, One Punch Man. I can kill all enemies with one punch."

Looking at the boasting Zhu Kai, Zhu Biao said, "I heard that there are only ten Lan Yu's personal soldiers on the parade ground."

"Ten?"

After hearing this, Zhu Kai waved his hand and said, "It must be that Miss Lan was defeated miserably and refused to tell Big Brother the truth, so she announced to the public that there were only ten people."

"You're such a jerk!"

Zhu Biao laughed and pointed at Zhu Kai without saying anything.

This guy likes to exaggerate his military achievements.

"Jinglong's horse died, so I picked one from the East Palace and gave it to him."

"Brother, you are stingy. You should give me two horses so that I can borrow his next time. Li Jinglong, this nephew, is too stingy. It's just one horse, but I took him to eat so many sheep."

"You bastard! Those sheep belong to Brother Wen Zhong! How many times did Jinglong get beaten by Brother Wen Zhong because of you?"

Zhu Biao smiled bitterly and talked about Zhu Kai's past in Yingtian Prefecture. Zhu Biao shook his head helplessly and said, "You too, second brother. You went to elder brother Wen Zhong's house to get the sheep, and he didn't give it to you? You didn't just go out the door, but had to climb over the wall to steal!" The elder brother Wen Zhong that Zhu Biao mentioned was Li Wen Zhong, Zhu Yuanzhang's nephew.

When he followed his father Li Zhen to join Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang liked him very much and adopted him as his son and asked Ma Xiuying to take care of him. Later, he changed his surname to Li and became very close to Zhu Yuanzhang's family.

Zhu Kai and his group of younger brothers either stole the sheep from Li Wenzhong's house or the chickens from Fu Youde's house. Every official of the Ming Dynasty in Yingtian Prefecture who had any delicious food in their homes had been stolen by Zhu Kai.

"Brother, I went to get it myself, how can that be called stealing?"

Zhu Kai shook his head and said to Zhu Biao:

"In my life, Zhu Kai, apart from what my parents gave me, I have to get everything else by myself. If I let others give me food, wouldn't that make me a beggar?"

Seeing Zhu Kai's unreasonable arguments, Zhu Biao pointed at Zhu Kai and laughed, "You brat! Do you still look down on beggars? Our father also needs to eat."

"nonsense!"

Zhu Kai refuted Zhu Biao seriously, and then said:

"When our father begged for food, he was a monk. That was called begging, not begging!"

“Hahahaha… Second brother, be careful with your words. Our father might have already come looking for you.”

"Just find me, come to me. Can our father lie against the wall? We are not a widow taking a bath, what is there to see?"

"Hahahaha...you bastard!"

The two brothers laughed and made fun of Zhu Yuanzhang, who was listening outside the door with a gloomy face.

But he couldn't stop smiling. After listening for a while, he waved and asked Yuan Qi to leave.

"These two bastards dared to tease their father for begging! And they even accused me of peeping at a widow bathing! How could I be that kind of person?"

Zhu Yuanzhang walked with great strides, and as he walked he said to Yuan Qi beside him:
"It was Tang He at the time. He peeped at the widows in our village taking a bath. If we hadn't rescued him, he would have been beaten to death in the village. And Hua Yun was no good either..."

Tang and Huayun don't know...

Without their knowledge, a pot of blame fell from the sky.

The empire he had fought so hard for and the throne he passed on to his sons were rejected by Zhu Kai and Zhu Biao one after another.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not go to find Ma Xiuying, but went to Concubine Li Shufei's palace.

Concubine Li Shufei's father was Li Jie.

Ma Xiuying defected to Zhu Yuanzhang in the second year after giving birth to Zhu Biao. Concubine Li Shu was young and beautiful. Zhu Yuanzhang made a mistake that all men would make and took the sixteen-year-old Concubine Li Shu into his harem, leaving him with two sons, Zhu Chong and Zhu Gang.

When Zhu Yuanzhang arrived, Concubine Li Shu, Zhu Chong and Zhu Gang were preparing to have dinner. When they saw Zhu Yuanzhang coming, they immediately paid their respects to him.

"Alright, alright, what else do we need to meet as a family?"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand casually. Seeing the big pancakes and green onions on the table, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately became interested: "Bring me some pancakes, or steamed buns."

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't like eating rice and always felt that he was not full after eating it.

He prefers to eat steamed buns and cakes, and his children also like to eat pasta.

Yuan Qi went to arrange the meal. Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Chong and Zhu Gang wolfed down the food. Concubine Li Shu felt helpless as she watched her two sons and Zhu Yuanzhang eating.

Not to mention Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Chong and Zhu Gang were so voracious eaters because they were led astray by Zhu Kai.

Not only did he bully his younger brother, but he also led him in the wrong direction. Concubine Li Shu had never seen such an unreliable brother.

While eating, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly looked up and asked, "Third and fourth brothers, which of you wants to be the emperor?"
