In Taihe Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was wearing a dragon robe, was sleeping on his side on the dragon throne.
Zhu Xiong had already arrived at His Highness.
"Your Highness, wait here. Allow this old servant to go in and report.”
The old eunuch walked into the Hall of Supreme Harmony with a hunched back and saw Zhu Yuanzhang dozing off.
"Your Majesty, Prince Zhou has arrived.”
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly woke up.
"Old Fifth, Old Fifth is here, right?”
Hearing this, Zhu Xiong stepped into Taihe Palace.
"Father, why did you call your son over today?”
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Rong with a big smile. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him.
"Come, come, come, our fifth brother, give me a seat.”
This was a high standard treatment that even the Crown Prince did not have.
Zhu Rong didn't decline and sat down.
"Fifth brother, tell father, when you competed with Zeng Shou yesterday, what kind of spear technique did you use?”
Zhu Xiong answered honestly.
"Father, that's the Luo Clan's spear technique."
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up.
"Fifth brother, you know the Luo Clan's spear technique? Could it be the Luo Family Spear Art of Luo Yi from the Tang Dynasty?”
"I heard that the Luo Clan doesn't teach their spear techniques to outsiders. Who did you learn it from?"
"No, Great General Lan doesn't understand this spear technique either. Tell me, who did you learn from?”
Zhu Rong was speechless. He couldn't say that he had obtained it from his previous life's memories.
"Father, your son learned from a street performer. At that time, that person said that this was the Luo Clan's spear technique. Your son didn't know it was so powerful.”
Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyebrows.
"In that case, in the past, when you skipped classes in the main hall and went to play on the streets of Yingtian Prefecture, did you go to learn skills?”
Zhu Rong nodded awkwardly.
He had indeed done this a lot.
Unfortunately, it was not like what his father had imagined. He had gone to the streets to play.
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang had found the best explanation for his Luo Clan's spear technique, Zhu Rong did not want to correct him.
"Alright, Fifth Brother. Which street performer did you learn this spear technique from?”
"If you can invite this person over and teach your brother, that would be great.”
A lie would need countless lies to deceive the past.
Zhu Xiong was somewhat tired and stammered.
"That street performer lives everywhere. Perhaps he had already traveled to other places. Where can this son find his traces?”
Zhu Yuanzhang slapped his thigh excitedly.
"Haha, it doesn't matter if you can't find it. In any case, Fifth Brother, you've learned his skills. You can also teach your big brother and fourth brother.”
Got it.
This gave Zhu Rong another job.
It seemed that Zhang Wang's suggestion was not unreasonable.
According to this situation, Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely want him to teach his brothers the Luo family spear technique.
It would be better to go to the battlefield and enjoy freedom.
"That…Father, I have something to discuss with you.”
Zhu Rong said hesitantly.
Zhu Yuanzhang was very fond of his son and would grant any request.
"Say it, just say it. As long as it's something your father can do, even if you want the stars in the sky, your father will pluck them for you.”
In the end, it was Zhu Rong who had made him gain enough face in front of Great General Lan and Xu Da yesterday.
"Your son…wants to follow Uncle Xu to the Northern Expedition.”
Zhu Rong's voice was very low, afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang would not agree.
The smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's face slowly disappeared, as if he was thinking about something.
Just when Zhu Rong thought that Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely reject his request, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke.
"Northern expedition? Haha, are you still thinking about the three girls from the Xu family?”
"Speaking of which, Xu Da, that old fellow, is really unethical. Yesterday, if it wasn't for the fact that I had diarrhea, Old Xu would have agreed to your marriage with Miao Yun.”
"Speaking of which, Fifth Brother, you're already 12 years old. It's normal for you to be thinking about that.”
Zhu Rong was dumbfounded.
He was just complaining that the palace was too stuffy and wanted to change places to be idle. Why did Zhu Yuanzhang say that he was thinking about the three daughters of the Xu family?
Forget it.
No matter what the reason was.
As long as Zhu Yuanzhang agreed to let him go to the Northern Expedition, he would do anything.
Zhu Rong thought that Zhu Yuanzhang would strongly oppose it, but he did not expect Zhu Yuanzhang to praise Zhu Rong's actions.
"Haha, our fifth brother is going to the battlefield. Haha, the sun really rose from the west.”
Zhu Rong was speechless.
His fourth brother, Zhu Di, said that he wanted to go to the battlefield, but his father, Zhu Yuanzhang, scolded him.
Zhu Yuanzhang was actually so happy when he said he was going to the battlefield.
Wasn't this…a little strange?
At the same time, Empress Ma arrived at Taihe Palace.
Zhu Yuanzhang held Empress Ma's hand and could not wait to show off.
"Tell me, our fifth brother is so advanced that he wants to go to the battlefield. I'm happy. I'm happy in my heart."
Empress Ma was stunned and complained.
"Chongba, what is this? Old Fifth was only 12 years old. Could he go to the battlefield?”
"However, it's indeed rare for this child to have such ambition.”
Zhu Yuanzhang was fine.
Now, Empress Ma was also full of praise for his suggestion. If Fourth Brother was here, he would definitely jump up and follow Old Zhu.
"Mother, your son will go to the battlefield. With Uncle Xu protecting him, Father and Mother need not worry.”
"Besides, your son went to the battlefield to broaden his horizons. As the prince of Ming Dynasty, he should think about the sufferings of the people.”
"It might be a good thing for your son to go out early to gain experience.”
Looking at Zhu Rong's determined eyes, Old Zhu and his wife were filled with joy.
"Aiya, Chongba, did you notice? The fifth brother spoke clearly and logically now. This child was really delightful.”
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded his head repeatedly.
"Isn't that so? This child is really enlightened."
"Look at this poem. It was written by Fifth Brother. The Grand Scholar of the Imperial Academy begged me to copy it, but I refused.”
"Our fifth brother has really made us proud.”
Zhu Xiong asked.
"Then that means that father and mother agree to your son and Uncle Xu's northern expedition?”
Zhu Yuanzhang pondered.
"Fifth, wait a moment. Let me discuss this matter with your Uncle Xu before making a decision.”
"After all, you are still young."
At this moment, a flustered eunuch suddenly came in.
"This is bad. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Prince of Yan has been found.”
These words were contradictory.
Zhu Yuanzhang angrily rebuked.
"A rootless thing can't even speak. The Prince of Yan had been found. Wasn't this a joyous occasion? Why can't I say it?"
The eunuch wiped the sweat off his face and panted heavily.
"This old slave didn't explain clearly. His Majesty might not know this, but the King of Yan had been beaten forty times by General Xu.”
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was instantly enraged.
