"Fifth brother, don't sleep anymore. Wake up. Something big happened in the palace today.”
A young man around the age of 18 was sitting on the edge of the bed. He was shaking Zhu Xi with both hands, preventing him from sleeping.
"Second brother, are you just watching from the side?”
Zhu Rong was very sleepy at this moment. He looked at the king of Qin, Zhu Rong, and said with a pleading expression," I only went to bed at midnight. I'm still sleepy. Please help me and pull Third Brother away. Six hours. Ah, no, can you come back in four hours?"”
"Old Fifth, did you stay in your field for another night yesterday?”
Zhu Rong looked at his fifth brother with a strange expression." I really don't know what you're thinking. Others enter the palace because they don't want to farm, but you're good. You're a dignified prince, but you actually go to the fields all day."”
"Wait, did the illness three years ago damage your brain?”
Is his brain sick?
Not only that!
Three years ago, that serious illness took away the real Zhu Xi.
The soul in Zhu Rong's body had transmigrated three years ago.
At the beginning of his transmigration, Zhu Xiong was quite excited. After all, all transmigrators would receive golden fingers, such as the system.
But after waiting for a whole year, he didn't get anything.
Helpless, he could only rely on himself. In his previous life, he was a transmigrator and had collected and learned many necessary knowledge for transmigrators.
For example, how to cultivate hybrid rice, how to refine coarse salt, how to make fertilizers, etc., and how to design and manufacture flintlocks, muskets, and rifled guns.
Under the small-scale peasant economy, the most important thing in the Ming Dynasty was food, not to mention that the world had just been pacified. It was time to restore agricultural production.
Without the system's reward of high-yield seeds such as potatoes and sweet potatoes, Zhu Xiong decisively chose to cultivate hybrid rice.
These few days, the rice was about to be harvested. He had to seize the time to select suitable seeds to prepare for the cultivation of higher-yield hybrid rice in the coming year.
At this moment, an even younger voice sounded at the door.
"Second Brother, don't you know Fifth? Ever since two years ago, he had fallen deeply in love with that piece of land. If it wasn't for his mother stopping him, he would have abandoned his home.”
"I say, Fifth Brother, you're also at the age to get married. Why don't you just marry that piece of land?”
The one who entered was the fourth son of the Zhu family, the future Emperor Yongle, Zhu Di.
However, the current him was still a little chicken whose feathers had not even grown fully.
"Hahaha!"
Upon hearing this, the King of Qin Zhu He and the King of Jin Zhu He couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Zhu Xi rolled his eyes at Zhu Di and ignored him. If he had the time, he might as well close his eyes and sleep.
However, the third brother, Zhu Xi, didn't do as he wished. Seeing that he was going to close his eyes again, his hands shook violently again.
"Third brother, if you continue to sway, believe it or not, I will expose the little secret that you have buried in your heart. At that time, see if father, mother, and big brother can't beat you to death.”
Under the threat, Zhu Xiong stopped.
However, Zhu Rong said,"Fifth brother, don't sleep yet. Something big really happened in the palace today."”
"Father and Mother are keeping Uncle Xu in the palace for a family banquet. Eldest Brother is accompanying him at the side. I heard that Father seems to be proposing marriage to Uncle Xu.”
"What does it have to do with me!"
Zhu Rong thought something big had happened.
The Uncle Xu that Zhu Rong mentioned was Xu Da, Duke of Wei.
Currently, the only person of suitable age in Xu Da's family was the eldest servant girl, Xu Miaoyun.
This woman was the famous Empress Xu in history.
It was said that she was Zhu Di's most beloved woman. On the day Empress Xu died of illness, Zhu Di aged several years overnight.
At the mention of Xu Miaoyun, a little girl with baby fat appeared in Zhu Rong's mind.
It had to be said that Xu Miaoyun was really beautiful. It was not an exaggeration to say that she was devastatingly beautiful.
To be honest, Zhu Rong had been interested in this girl at the beginning. After all, a graceful lady was a good match for a gentleman.
However, it did not take long for him to take the initiative to scatter this thought.
Because this girl was really valiant. She was even more valiant than his mother.
It was said that this girl was the head of the Xu family now. Even the Duke of Wei, Xu Da, was subdued by his eldest daughter.
Although Zhu Rong wasn't a chauvinist, he didn't want to be controlled by a woman for the rest of his life. That would be too annoying.
"Look at what you're saying. What do you mean it's none of your business?”
" If Father asks Uncle Xu for a marriage proposal," the King of Qin Zhu Xi couldn't help but say," then among us brothers, the most suitable age would be Fourth Brother and you. I think Fifth Brother is the most likely candidate."”
"Yes, I have the same opinion as second brother.”
"Since three years ago, those girls from the Xu family have been playing around with you, especially Miao Yun. I think she's probably taken a fancy to you."”
"Fifth brother, it seems that fourth brother has to drink your wedding wine first, haha!”
Zhu Di laughed heartlessly at the side.
"Fourth Brother, I should be the one congratulating you!”
Zhu Di?
"Why are you congratulating me? I've never interacted with those girls from the Xu family since I was young. It must be you!”
"Aren't you getting younger!"
"Marriage has always been decided by the parents since ancient times. It's not something that children can decide." Zhu Rong smiled faintly.”
"There's order in seniority. Fourth brother, you're not even married yet, so how can it be my turn?”
Zhu Rong and Zhu Rong both felt that this was very reasonable.
"What? Me?"
After hearing this, Zhu Di instantly stood up on the spot and said reluctantly,"No, I won't marry a woman even if I die.”
Zhu Di didn't expect that he would be the one to suffer.
Zhu Rong was right. There was a 99% chance that his parents were proposing marriage to Uncle Xu because of him.
The thought of marrying a female student made Zhu Di's scalp tingle.
"Hehe, Fourth Brother, there are some things that you can't reject just because you want to. It's better to go back early and prepare for the marriage!”
Zhu Rong started to chase the guests away after he finished speaking." You guys should leave quickly. I need to catch up on my sleep."”
However, at this moment, three people suddenly came in. To be precise, three women.
Two little girls around the age of ten accompanied a young girl around the age of sixteen in the middle.
Who else could it be but Xu Miaoyun?
Zhu Di was shocked and avoided her gaze, not daring to look at Xu Miaoyun.
Because of Fifth Brother Zhu Rong's analysis, he was certain that his parents had asked Uncle Xu to marry him because of him.
However, after a while, he realized that Xu Miaoyun didn't seem to be here for him. She didn't even look at him and walked straight to Zhu Rong.
Zhu Xi was speechless.
Not only him, Zhu Di, Zhu Xi, and the Zhu brothers were also confused.
At this moment, Xu Miaoqing and Xu Miaojin walked forward and placed the food boxes on the table. Xu Miaojin's tender and light voice sounded.
"Brother Qin, Brother Jin and Brother Yan, can you leave first? Big sister has something to say to Brother Pi alone.”
Brother Xu?
Even the way he addressed her was treated differently.
The Zhu brothers felt hurt.
However, Zhu Di was very excited. Xu Miaoyun had come alone to look for No. 5, and it was at this juncture.
He seemed to smell the hope of leaving the female students.
"Let's go, let's go. Second Brother, Third Brother, let's not disturb Fifth Brother and Sister Xu's conversation.”
Zhu Di pushed Zhu Xi and Zhu Xi out.
Immediately after, Xu Miaoqing and Xu Miaojin also left. Before they left, they not only dispersed all the eunuchs and serving girls, but also closed the door.
Zhu Xi was speechless.
