"Fourth Brother! I want to kill someone!"
Zhu Xiong said word by word in the residence.
Zhu Di was shocked and quickly said,
"Fifth brother, don't be rash. This matter still needs to be handled by big brother and father.”
"Moreover, there are many things that need to be verified. If we don't have any evidence, killing officials and the families of dukes and marquises will not be able to cover up even with our identities.”
Zhu Xiong sneered,"
"Evidence? Of course we have to find him, but we also have to kill him!"
"Tie Xuan, do you know that the officials in Kaifeng Prefecture are involved?”
Tie Xuan nodded.
"I know a little."
Zhu Rong said decisively,"
"Alright, a little is enough! The radish is still muddy. Follow me back to the relay station and draw up a name list for me.”
Zhu Di was shocked when he heard these words. Why did he feel that at this moment, No. 5 was actually more impulsive than him?
"Fifth Brother, what are you going to do? Let me tell you, this matter is of great importance. It's not something we can do recklessly.”
Zhu Rong waved his hand.
"Who said I was going to mess around? Alright, Fourth Brother, don't worry about this matter. Tomorrow, bring people back to the capital and hand this Tie Xuan to Imperial Father and Big Brother.”
"If you don't poke this sore, it won't break. If it doesn't break, it won't know pain.”
"In the end, you will realize that by the time you want to poke it, the sore has already grown into a malignant tumor.”
"At that time, it will be really troublesome.”
"Imperial Father and Big Brother have too many misgivings, but I don't have so many misgivings.”
"What uncles? I'm not familiar with them, so why should I be afraid of them?”
"I'm just an insensible prince. I don't care about the flood!”
Yao Guangxiao subconsciously looked at Zhu Rong when he heard this."
"Your Highness, what a good plan!"
Zhu Rong smiled coldly.
"Monk, see through it and don't say it. It's better to keep some words to yourself.”
Monk Dao Yan chanted the name of Buddha,"
"Did This Penniless Monk say anything? Your Highness must have misunderstood something, right?"
Zhu Xiong smiled faintly.
"Is that so? Then I must have misunderstood. Monk, that's why we should be closer to each other to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.”
As she spoke, she tightened her grip on Monk Dao Yan's hand.
Monk Dao Yan smiled bitterly.
"This poor monk thanks Your Highness for your kindness."
Zhu Di and Tie Xuan listened to Zhu Xiong and Monk Dao Yan's charades and were a little confused.
But no matter what, he couldn't let his fifth brother do whatever he wanted.
He was prepared to write a letter and send it to the capital as soon as possible tonight, and he would keep an eye on Zhu Rong.
He was really afraid that Zhu Rong would cause some trouble that couldn't be fixed.
Then, the group returned to the relay station.
However, what they did not expect was that as soon as they returned to the relay station, an official was waiting at the entrance.
After seeing the four of them, the official quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Zhu Di and Zhu Xi."
"This humble official, the Governor of Kaifeng Prefecture greets His Highness the King of Yan, His Highness the King of Zhou!”
Hmm?
Zhu Xi and Zhu Di looked at each other.
The two of them had used fake names along the way, Zhu Silang and Zhu Wulang.
The governor of Kaifeng Prefecture had exposed their identities. It was obvious that their identities had been exposed.
Hehe, good, no matter what happens, it can't be hidden from these local officials!
Zhu Xiong narrowed his eyes and asked the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture,"
"What's the matter?"
The governor took out an invitation card from his sleeve and said,"
"Kaifeng Governor Lord Zhang, I heard that the two of you have arrived in Kaifeng, so I specially hosted a banquet to entertain the two of you. I wonder if the two of you would do me the honor?”
Upon hearing this, Zhu Rong instantly smiled."
"The Kaifeng governor is hosting a banquet? Of course I have to go. This Kaifeng Prefecture is my fief. Of course I have to pay a visit to the father and mother of this Kaifeng Prefecture.”
As he spoke, he took the invitation card and looked at it. He nodded slightly.
"Alright, this king understands. I will definitely attend the banquet as scheduled.”
The governor saw that Zhu Rong was so easy to talk to, and his face immediately filled with smiles."
"Then I'll take my leave!"
Zhu Rong waved his hand.
"Go, go."
After the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture left.
The smile on Zhu Rong's face instantly turned sinister.
"And this is someone handing me a pillow when I'm dozing off!”
Zhu Di looked at his smile and felt a chill in his heart. He quickly said,
"Fifth Brother, don't do anything stupid. We're not going to this banquet.”
Zhu Xiong chuckled and said,
"Not going? How could this be? They are treating us with great hospitality. If we don't go, wouldn't we be disrespecting them?”
"Besides, I've already accepted the invitation. How can I not go?”
Zhu Di was really a little afraid. He held Zhu Rong's hand and said,
"Fifth Brother, don't mess around. Fourth Brother is doing this for your own good.”
Zhu Xi suddenly looked at Zhu Di with a solemn gaze.
"Ling, you're my biological brother. You know my temper. When have I ever done something that I'm not confident in?”
"Don't worry, this time I'm just going to take a look at the officials of Kaifeng Prefecture.”
"Moreover, Kaifeng is my fief. Even if I make a scene, who would dare to say anything?”
Zhu Di was speechless, but Zhu Xiong's words reminded him.
It seemed that his fifth brother could really cause a ruckus in Kaifeng.
Now that all the kings had yet to enter the vassal state, his father did not explicitly state whether the vassal kings could participate in politics.
It seemed that Zhu Rong really had the right to manage the affairs of Kaifeng Prefecture.
At the thought of this, Zhu Di fell silent.
Since his younger brother wanted to make a scene, then let him be. Anyway, he had his father and elder brother behind him.
He just needed to keep an eye on Zhu Rong and not make a scene.
In fact, Zhu Di actually wanted to see how rotten these local officials were.
The invitation stated that the banquet would be held at night.
After Zhu Xi and Zhu Di returned to the relay station, they immediately sent people to protect Tie Xuan.
Monk Dao Yan wanted to leave, but would Zhu Rong agree?
He arranged a soldier with a small flag beside the monk. It was a euphemistic way of protecting him, but in fact, it was to keep an eye on the monk.
When night fell, Zhu Di and Zhu Xi set off for the banquet venue.
At the same time, the 1,000 soldiers of the supply camp went with him.
At the entrance of the Chief Secretary of Henan Chengxuan in Kaifeng Prefecture.
A group of officials, big and small, were already waiting at the Chief Secretary's door.
When Zhu Xi and Zhu Di arrived in the carriage, dozens of officials, big and small, went up to them.
"We pay our respects to the King of Yan and His Highness the King of Zhou!”
Under the leadership of Kaifeng Prefecture Governor Zhang Qian, the officials bowed in unison.
Seeing this, Zhu Rong smiled faintly."
"No need for formalities!"
Only then did the officials stand up. Kaifeng's governor, Zhang Qian, said with a smile,
"I've long heard that the Prince of Yan and Prince of Zhou are young heroes with extraordinary martial arts. They have the wind of the ancient Wei Huo.”
Zhu Rong waved his hand and smiled.
"There's no need to be polite. Since you sincerely invited me and the King of Yan here, I naturally can't reject your respect.”
"For this reason, this king has also brought a generous gift for all of you. I hope that all of you will accept it.”
When Zhang Qian heard this, he was a bit confused. It was always the officials who gave gifts to the royal family. Why did this Prince Zhou do the opposite?
Zhang Qian hurriedly shook his head and said,"
"We can't, we can't. How can we accept your highness 'generous gifts?”
Zhu Rong chuckled.
"Don't be in a hurry to refuse. Let's look at the gift first.”
As he spoke, Zhu Xiong shouted into the carriage,"
"Come out, don't let the lords wait.”
"Yes, Your Highness!"
As he spoke, Tie Xuan walked out of the carriage and came to Zhu Rong's side.
The moment Tie Xuan appeared, the expressions of all the officials present changed.
"Tie Xuan? Why are you here?"
