After the meal, Zhu Houcan and Yao Yue Lian Xing checked Su Xin's pulse to make sure that she was fine. Zhu Houcan and Yao Yue Lian Xing were about to leave, so Zhu Budian and Su Xin naturally sent them off.
"Brother Bao, are you going out to play?”Little Ah-Jiu looked at Zhu Houcan and asked curiously.
"Yes, Brother Bao will go to the palace to see your Brother Houzhao later. What's wrong?”
Zhu Houcan smiled as he hugged Ah-Jiu.
Little Ah-Jiu nodded. He held onto Zhu Houcan and didn't let go. He didn't say anything and just kept looking at Zhu Houcan.
Zhu Houcan had no other choice. He looked at Zhu Bujue and said to Su Xin," Uncle, Aunt, I'll take Ah Jiu to the palace to play."”
"Alright, go. Once you come back, Little Ah-Jiu won't be close to the two of us anymore!”
Su Xin teased with a smile.
"Mother, you bullied Ah-Jiu. Ah-Jiu is ignoring you!”Little Ah-Jiu said as he lay in Zhu Houzhao's arms with a red face.
"Go. Ah-Jiu has been close to you since he was young. You have to take good care of him, do you hear me?”
Zhu Bujue also smiled and teased Zhu Houcan.
"Don't worry. Come, Ah-Jiu. I'll carry you into the carriage!”
Zhu Houcan carried Ah-Jiu and said with a smile.
"Brother Bao, it's the best!"
Ah-Jiu shouted happily when he heard what Zhu Houcan said.
"Of course…"
Zhu Houcan said with a smile as he held Ah-Jiu with one arm and scratched the tip of Ah-Jiu's nose with the other.
The Dragon Guarding Mountain Villa was located in the suburbs of the capital. When Zhu Houcan returned to the city, the sun had already set.
"Yue 'er and Xing' er, you can return to the residence first. I'll bring little sister Jiu 'er to the palace to lie down!”
Zhu Houcan said as he carried Xiao Jiu down the carriage.
"Don't you need us to follow?"
Lian Xing asked in confusion.
"No need, I'll be back in a while. If I don't let Little 9th see Brother Houzhao and Sister Yun Luo today, she'll make a fuss and won't let me rest!”
Zhu Houcan said helplessly as he looked at Xiao Jiu in his arms.
"Alright then!" Lian Xing looked at Xiao Jiu, who was acting coquettishly in Zhu Houcan's arms. She covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Sisters-in-law, don't worry. I'll be back with Brother Bao in a while!”
Xiao Jiu said to Yao Yue and Lian Xing with a smile when it heard that they were going to the imperial palace.
When she heard the word sister-in-law, she immediately beamed.
"Let's go!" As he spoke, Zhu Houcan stepped on the force and carried Xiao Jiu in the direction of the Imperial City.
Outside the Imperial City, the officials had already gone to their posts. The general guarding the city wall was also watching the last ray of sunset disappear. The palace gates were about to be locked.
"Who are you?"
A few soldiers at the palace gate gripped their spears tightly and asked when they saw a young man carrying a little girl.
"Put down your guns. Are you blind? You don't even recognize the son of King Wu!”
When the general on the city wall saw who it was, he quickly jumped down the city wall.
"Yo? You're the Azure Dragon?"
Zhu Houcan said with a smile when he saw who it was.
"I am the commander of the Brocade Guard, Azure Dragon. Greetings, Your Highness!”
"Aiya, no need to be polite! Always so polite!" Zhu Houcan waved his hand and said.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Azure Dragon stood up and thanked Zhu Houcan after hearing his words.
"Alright, I'll bring Little Jiu 'er to see the emperor. She misses her emperor brother!”
Zhu Houcan pointed at Little Jiu 'er who was secretly looking around in his arms.
"Men, open the city gates!"
Azure Dragon nodded and said to his subordinates.
Meanwhile, Azure Dragon was chatting with Zhu Houcan.
However, the sound of the door opening suddenly stopped. Azure Dragon frowned and saw that there was only a gap for one person to enter.
Azure Dragon's face was filled with anger as he shouted towards the city gate.
"You blind thing, open the city gates!”
After saying that, he hurriedly smiled at Zhu Houcan.
"Your Highness, these are all meritorious soldiers who have just been transferred back. Don't be angry!”
Zhu Houcan helplessly shook his head when he saw Azure Dragon's reaction.
"I'm so willing to be angry.”
As he spoke, he patted the Azure Dragon's shoulder.
"Thank you, Crown Prince!"
"Alright, alright, I'll go in first. When you have time, the four of you can come over to my place for a drink. I can't leave Beijing for a while!”
Zhu Houcan says smilingly to Azure Dragon.
"If the prince invites, Azure Dragon will definitely come!”
"Alright, then I'll go in first!"
At this moment, the city gate was already completely open. Zhu Houcan did not waste any time and walked in with Little Jiu in his arms.
At this moment, the deputy general walked over and said with some dissatisfaction.
"Milord, isn't this Wu Wang's son too ostentatious? He wouldn't even come in if the city gates weren't open?”
"Shut up, the prince is not someone you can talk about! Don't you want your head anymore?"
Azure Dragon angrily looked at the deputy general and cursed.
"Milord, isn't he just a prince? Even if his father is the King of Wu, he shouldn't be so arrogant!”
The deputy general felt a little wronged and continued.
"You! It's because of this bad temper. Otherwise, His Majesty wouldn't have let you watch the city gate here and waste your temper!”
"Not to mention that the palace gates are wide open, in the past, when the prince entered the Imperial City, it was His Majesty who personally welcomed him!”
"Ah?"
When the deputy general heard that, he was first shocked and then stunned.
"You, when you have time, let someone tell you about the deeds of the Crown Prince!”
Azure Dragon looked at the deputy general's surprise and patted him on the shoulder. He shouted to the other soldiers and closed the door. He did not say anything else.
