"Second Brother!"
"Why are you crying? I'm not dead yet!”
A sudden sound.
It sounded from the main hall.
Zhu Biao ran out angrily.
Just now, the three of them were deep in thought about the most important question.
The importance of this question.
To the old master, he couldn't wait and had to solve it!
However, when they were the most engrossed…
Suddenly, the sound of wailing could be heard from outside!
She kept calling him "Big Brother"!
It was like calling out to a soul.
However…
The old man and Zhu Biao recognized the owner of the voice as soon as they heard it.
The King of Qin, Zhu Xi!
As expected.
When Zhu Biao ran out and saw his second brother, he was shocked.
However, he was suddenly stunned.
He saw that the brocade clothes on his second brother were already covered in dust and mud.
His second brother's handsome face had long turned ashen.
Her hair was tied into knots.
He placed it outside.
This kind of image was almost similar to a beggar.
However…
When Zhu Biao saw Zhu Xiong like this, he felt his eyes turn hot.
A warm current flowed through his chest.
He could imagine it.
It was a total of two thousand miles from King Qin's Mansion to the Ying Tian Mansion.
From the Guanzhong Plain to Yingtian in the south.
Such a long distance.
How did this kid get here?
Just look at his body and that dispirited expression!
There was more.
This kid was practically shuffling.
It was as if there was something in front of him that he did not want to face.
At this thought.
The anger from before had completely disappeared.
Zhu Biao's tone turned gentle.
But suddenly!
In front…
Zhu Xiong, whose eyes were wide open in disbelief, was shocked.
He was instantly stunned.
It was as if he had been struck by lightning as he stood rooted to the ground.
He was stunned for a long time.
Only then did he react.
He instantly pounced forward and hugged Zhu Huai.
There were still tears in her mouth.
"Big brother!"
"Your soul has come out to pick me up!"
"Hahahaha…"
Zhu Rong laughed loudly. He said that his soul would come out to pick me up, but of course he was joking.
But in the next moment.
He could no longer control himself.
Tears of joy!
"Big Brother, you're fine!"
"So you're fine!"
"I knew it…those bastards lied to me!”
Zhu Biao wanted to kick him away when he was suddenly hugged.
But in the end, the memories resurfaced.
The little figure was lying in the cradle, and she was watching his childhood memories by his side.
He didn't chase him away immediately.
Instead, he could wait until the other party's emotions calmed down.
"What happened?" Zhu Biao asked. Why don't you look like a vassal king at all…Hurry up and wash up! Imperial Father is coming out later."
From great sorrow to great joy.
It was not easy for Zhu Xi to change.
At this moment, the old man that he had been afraid of since he was young was no longer so terrifying.
"What's there to be afraid of that old man? Big brother, you're really fine now…Don't tell me you're still alive?”
"Get lost!"
Zhu Biao cursed.
Zhu Xiong ignored him and shamelessly surrounded Zhu Biao.
Suddenly.
Zhu Biao's expression changed.
He immediately turned around and wanted to escape!
"Second Brother, seeing that I'm so afraid, get back here!”
Behind Zhu Biao.
The old man finally walked out.
On the surface, the old man didn't seem to have any expression on Zhu Rong's return.
However…
When he saw the latter carrying a rattan on his back, he looked like a beggar.
The old man's tone softened.
But he continued to ask!
"Do you know what crime it is for a vassal king to leave his territory without permission and return to the capital without permission?”
Zhu Xiong was too thick-skinned.
Without saying a word, he knelt down.
"Father, I didn't bring any soldiers back. I rode my own horse here. I was supposed to run for big brother…"
He didn't finish the last word and continued,""I came back this time to beat you up. If you're not angry, beat me up or lock me up!”
"Lock him up, Zhu Rong. Just based on what you did in the residence, I want to cut you down!”
"When you were the King of Qin, didn't we tell you to go to Guanzhong to recuperate? You can't waste money and manpower!"”
"I even built the Qin royal palace for you. You just need to go. I didn't expect you to govern that place well. I specially sent the most capable officials for you!”
"But what did you do? You didn't listen to my advice and started a large-scale construction project, wasting money and manpower!”
"The complaint is on our table, higher than your head!”
Zhu Rong lowered his head and didn't say anything.
However, when the old master saw his second son, he remembered these things that made him upset and was furious.
"Speak!"
Zhu Rong continued to act like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. "Father! I'm doing things openly and aboveboard. What I've done is done!”
"If they wanted to sue us, we would never stop them. We are not like those pretentious court officials who have a pile of shit in their pants and did not even clean it up! Covering the east and west!"
"At least I won't lie to you! I did everything you saw.”
" But…" Zhu Rong said stubbornly.
"I still have the same words. When I was young, I put down rebellions, exterminated bandits, and never retreated on the battlefield…I really fought with blood.”
"The throne of the King of Qin was won by us.”
"We've been fighting for so many years. Can't we enjoy ourselves?”
The old master was furious." Your father hasn't even enjoyed it yet, and you still want to enjoy it!”
"Get out!"
"Someone, take this out and wash it first. After it's clean, let him eat more…"
"It's good that you're full. If you're full, we can fight for a while longer!”
The old man waved his hand and cursed.
But Zhu Biao, who was familiar with him, knew.
As long as the old man scolded or really hit her, it would be fine.
I'm just afraid that the old man won't say a word and will just stare at you. If he says a few more strange words, you're definitely done for.
This time, the old man only cursed and didn't hit him.
He even asked someone to bring him down to wash him and let him eat his fill.
This was clearly heartache.
At this moment.
Zhu Rong had also realized this.
He quickly got up and walked toward the side hall under the guidance of the chamberlain.
When he saw that not far away, there were still so many people who were laughing at him.
He pursed his lips and did not care at all. Instead, he swaggered.
"This Second Prince is still the same as before!”
"Ha! Indeed, his skin was thicker than the city walls.”
"In the end, he was the Empress 'favorite son back then. He was spoiled!”
"Third Bro isn't bad either, but Third Bro is much more sinister than him.”
Lan Yu and Fu Youde exchanged a few words.
They were all old people who had followed the old master back then. Now that they had seen their children grow up, they immediately had a common topic to talk about.
"Speaking of which, Fourth Bro, that fellow, is the one who really can't see through his depth, right?”Fu Youde asked.
Lan Yu frowned." I have a grudge with him. Let's not talk about him!”
"However, according to the letter, since the second brother is here, the third brother will probably be here soon.”
"As for Fourth Brother, he might be a little late.”
……
After taking a shower, Zhu Xi changed into a new set of clothes and felt refreshed.
He received news that his brother was fine.
It was as if the heaviest courage had been removed.
For a moment.
He felt that his body had become much lighter. He had eaten three bowls of rice in a row!
Only then did she put on her coat and tie her hair.
He was no longer a beggar with messy hair.
On the contrary, he was indeed very valiant. He was slightly taller than Zhu Biao and had a stocky build. However, he was not fat, but majestic!
He put on his clothes.
Zhu Rong didn't even think about it and happily came to the main hall.
The moment he arrived at the main hall.
He found that his father and brother were frowning and discussing something. Beside them was his brother's son, Zhu Yunyan.
"Hello, Second Uncle!" Zhu Yunhao greeted.
Zhu Rong was a little embarrassed." I don't have a gift for you. I'll go to the capital to find one for you tomorrow!"”
"Do you have a wife? Second Uncle still has many good friends in Beijing…"
Zhu Yunhao's face turned red.
It was the old master who managed to calm the situation." Hurry up and sit down.”
Zhu Rong, who was sitting down, looked at his eldest brother and then at the old man.
He was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks.
Finally, he couldn't help but ask the most curious question." Father, what were you discussing just now? Also, wasn't Big Brother seriously ill? He recovered so quickly. Did he meet a divine doctor?”
"It's the divine doctor!" The old man nodded.
Suddenly, he had an idea.
The problem that the three of them had discussed for a long time had not been resolved.
Fortunately, he looked at Zhu Rong.
"Have you seen the painting?"
"What?"
"Hua, didn't you want to build a luxurious palace for you? He must have collected a lot of artsy paintings, right?”
Zhu Rong laughed." Dad, I'm not interested in those things, but there are many people who give them to you during the holidays. If you like them, I'll get someone to deliver them to you right away!"”
"Don't, you should stay in the Imperial Residence.”The old man seemed to have made up his mind.
"Since you've seen the painting, go in. Tell us, what's the meaning of the seventh painting?”
Hmm?
Zhu Rong was completely dumbfounded.
Meaning?
"Father, you want to talk to me about the meaning of the painting? You think too highly of me. You should look for Third Brother for this. Third Brother is the smart one.”
"Get in!" The old man refused to listen.
"Third Bro's answer is Third Bro's!”
"You go first, you answer first."
Zhu Rong was speechless, but he quickly stood up and walked toward the inner room curiously.
They wanted to see what puzzles the old man had left for them.
However…
The moment he entered.
He was completely stunned.
He didn't move at all.
It was as if he was frozen there.
"Mother!"
A sobbing voice filled with shock sounded.
Plop.
Zhu Rong immediately knelt down!
Soon, sobbing sounds came from the room.
When the old man saw this, he shook his head helplessly.
When the sobbing sounds inside gradually died down.
Only then did he stand up.
"Do you have an answer?"
Zhu Rong stood motionlessly in front of the portrait in the inner room.
"Father, this painting, where did you get this painting from…"
"Tell me first, what is the seventh painting that you understand?”
Only then did Zhu Rong look at the blank paper.
This time.
He was stunned for a long time.
"There's nothing. It's blank. What's the meaning of this?”
"My mother's painting is the biggest meaning, okay?”
Boom!
At this moment, the old man's body suddenly froze on the spot!
He was completely stunned!
In the next second, the old man's gaze…
Unbelievable joy suddenly appeared!
