Xu Manor.
Xu Da stood in the hall and looked at his armor.
Along with Xu Miaoyun's title as the Yan Princess Consort, there was also the imperial edict for the expedition.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't just move his mouth to mobilize over 100,000 troops.
Just the transportation of rations and supplies, as well as the gathering of troops.
It would take at least a month.
In the days to come, Xu Da would be busy.
He had always done the preparations for the expedition himself.
He would try his best to perfect every aspect.
However, this battle was different from the past. They were going to the grasslands to fight against the Northern Yuan troops.
To Great Ming and its generals, it was an unfamiliar territory.
He had never been there before, and the map was not very clear.
Hence, Xu Da was somewhat worried about this expedition.
Outside the hall.
Xu Miaoyun didn't stay idle either.
"Fushou, move this out."
She also began to prepare various items.
It wasn't a luxurious item, but Xu Da's cotton jacket and the Chinese medicine he used to take.
He died a few years before Chang Yuchun.
Everyone in the Xu Manor was even more careful with Xu Da's body.
No one expected a person like Chang Yuchun to die in his prime!
He died when his body was at its strongest.
Therefore, Xu Da's favorite roast goose.
He had also disappeared from the Xu Manor.
Xu Da was only allowed to eat a little during the New Year.
"Girl, come here!"
Xu Da, who was in the lobby, shouted out.
After Xu Miaoyun finished her instructions, she slowly walked over.
"Father, what else do you have to say?"
Xu Da paused.
"Father is fine with this expedition.
Father is still worried about you."
Hearing this, Xu Miaoyun knew that it was her wedding.
"Father, the marriage will be arranged by Mother and the people from the Ministry of Rites.
Our Xu Manor is the Duke's Manor, so we have all the necessary standards.”
Even though that was the case, Xu Da was still a little worried.
After all, she was the girl he had raised for fifteen years.
Now that he was about to become someone else's, Xu Da could not help but feel a little worried.
He was worried that Xu Miaoyun would not have a good life in the future and would be wronged.
"Girl, you're right.
The Xu Manor is the Duke's Manor.
Just tell me and I'll teach him a lesson!
Not to mention that he was a prince, even if he was a vassal, Father could still deal with him!”
Xu Da reminded his daughter.
Zhu Di, whom he had originally thought highly of, was now in his heart.
Her impression of him was getting worse by the day.
Xu Miaoyun smiled.
"Alright, Father, don't worry.
There is no one in this world who can bully me.
If the King of Yan did not treat me well, why would I swallow my anger and be a little woman?”
Xu Da, who knew his daughter's personality, immediately felt a little more at ease.
"That's good.
You can't endure it."
At this moment, Xu Da was no different from the parents of an ordinary family.
After saying that, Xu Da went to the military camp to reorganize the army.
Xu Da's wife also brought people to the Ministry of Rites to discuss the marriage.
In the huge Xu Manor, only Xu Miaoyun was in charge.
……
Outside the Imperial City, inside the carriage.
Zhu Bai looked through the window at the bustling crowd.
The current capital had been recuperating for several years.
It had already become much more prosperous.
There were stalls everywhere on the street.
The commoners who were walking wore clean clothes and looked energetic.
"After all, this is the capital city."
After Zhu Bai transmigrated, this was the first time he had the chance to observe the capital city in detail.
Looking at the scene in front of him, his mood became much better.
He couldn't help but hope that he could grow up quickly.
After that, they could experience the prosperity of the capital city.
Beside the carriage, Zhu Di was dressed as a guard and riding a date red horse.
She reminded him softly.
"Twelfth brother, when we get there, you can't forget your words!
He had just confirmed that General Xu and his wife were not around.
Fourth Brother is counting on you."
Hearing this, Zhu Bai nodded his head, his entire mind focused on the scene outside the window.
Exquisite pleasure boats floated on the sparkling Qinhuai River.
One could faintly see the moving figure on the boat.
Fifteen minutes later.
The carriage arrived at the Xu Manor.
"The Twelfth Prince has arrived."
Zhu Di pretended to be a guard and kept sizing up the scene in the mansion.
There was a beautiful woman who was busy in the courtyard.
Zhu Bai asked curiously.
"Fourth brother, is that person a female student?”
Zhu Di followed Zhu Bai's line of sight and shook his head.
"I don't think so.
It was said that the daughter of the Xu family was the daughter of a noble family, and the female student meant a female scholar.
He should be the kind who liked to read in the study.”
Although Zhu Di felt that the person in front of him was quite beautiful, he felt that Xu Miaoyun should have the kind of gentle and refined feeling.
He guessed that she might be Xu Da's wife's maid?
He was in charge of the management.
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
The butler of the Xu residence quickly went forward to greet him.
Zhu Bai also followed Zhu Di's instructions and explained.
"Why is there no one in the residence to receive you?"
The butler felt embarrassed after hearing that.
It wasn't that the Xu Manor was neglecting them, but that the important figures of the Xu Manor weren't around at the moment.
He quickly looked in Xu Miaoyun's direction, his eyes seemingly asking for help.
Seeing this, Xu Miaoyun slowly walked over.
"Greetings, Your Highness.
Today, there was no one in the residence, and it was not that the Xu residence deliberately neglected them.”
Xu Miaoyun sized up Zhu Di.
However, she saw through it at a glance.
Zhu Bai pretended to speak casually when he heard this.
"Is the eldest daughter of the Xu family not here either?”
Xu Miaoyun replied.
"Miss happened to go to the market. I hope Your Highness can forgive her.”
Zhu Bai nodded.
"It's fine. I'm just a little thirsty. I'll leave after drinking a cup of tea.”
Then, the butler immediately invited him to the main house.
While Zhu Bai was drinking tea.
Zhu Di looked a little disappointed. He had already inquired about everything.
However, it was a wasted trip.
He asked Xu Miaoyun unintentionally.
"I heard that your young miss is talented in literature?”
Zhu Di thought about it and asked the " maid " beside him. It was not a waste of time.
"Young Lady only knows a little, but it's only because of the praise outside.
On the other hand, the Prince of Yan was said to be quick-witted and talented, and others could not compare to him.”
When Zhu Di heard this, he was a little happy.
"That's right. His Highness, the King of Yan, is knowledgeable.
Among the princes, the King of Yan was the most knowledgeable.”
He began to boast.
Xu Miaoyun only listened attentively and occasionally flattered him.
After that, the head guard and the maid.”
They started chatting.
Zhu Bai, who was sipping tea at the side, looked at Xu Miaoyun.
He had a guess in his heart, but he did not point it out.
Instead, a faint smile appeared on his face as he thought to himself.
"Fourth Brother, you're really good at praising yourself.”
He didn't remind him. He was just waiting to see Zhu Di make a fool of himself in the future.
Zhu Bai was even looking forward to it.
Zhu Di knew the other party's identity and the expression on his face.
