After Old Zhu left.
The remaining princes and Empress Ma looked at Zhu Di.
Phoenix Sun was their ancestral land!
Except for Zhu Biao, who had been there many years ago, the other princes didn't even know the way.
This time, Zhu Di followed him and ran around.
They were naturally curious about what Fengyang was like.
As for Zhu Biao, he was curious about the outcome of this trip.
In his opinion, his father had only been gone for two to three days and had returned so quickly.
Come to think of it…Fengyang's current situation was probably not good.
Otherwise, he would at least need to examine the local people's livelihood, right?
It was also necessary to visit the people.
However, these few days were obviously not enough to do these things.
Since they had returned to the Ying Tian Manor so quickly, it could only mean that Phoenix Sun's situation was not optimistic.
"Why are you all looking at me like that? Is there a flower on my face?"
Zhu Di was a little scared by the looks of his brothers.
I've only been out for a few days. Why am I looking at him like this when I'm back?
"Why are you looking at me like that?”
"Fourth Brother, Fourth Brother, tell us quickly. How is Fengyang? Is that place fun?"
"Fourth Bro, you're the only one who's returned to the ancestral land! Hurry up and tell me what you've seen and heard!"
"I heard from Big Brother that Fengyang used to be very poor. The people there couldn't afford to eat. Many of them even had to eat dirt to survive. Is it like this?"
"I heard Imperial Mother say the same! Fourth brother, is our ancestral land still eating dirt? How did the soil taste?”
"I even specially tried it. I really can't swallow the taste of the soil here…"
"No way, Eighth Brother! You even went to try eating dirt! Are you really eating it?"
"Nonsense, how can you really eat dirt!”
"I was just curious and wanted to give it a try!”
...
Zhu Di listened to his brothers 'questions.
He couldn't help but recall his experience and knowledge in Fengyang City over the past few days.
To be honest, he had always thought that the Ying Tian Prefecture was the best city in the world.
However, when he looked at the Urban area of the Ying Tian Prefecture now, he felt all kinds of disdain.
Without comparison, there would be no harm.
"Fourth Bro, tell me, after this trip to Fengyang, what happened there?”
Actually, the princes were not the only ones curious.
Even Empress Ma put down the soles of her shoes and looked at Zhu Di expectantly.
"To be honest, I've never seen Fengyang City before. I don't even dare to imagine that there's such a city in the world.”
Zhu Di saw that everyone was so curious, and he actually had a trace of vanity.
After coughing twice, he pulled the driver's seat and began to explain.
"After Imperial Father and I left Yingtian Prefecture, we headed towards Fengyang. Along the way, we saw many people with dull gazes and ragged clothes. When they were resting in a small town, they even saw someone selling their children. All for the sake of getting something to eat.”
When Zhu Di said this, he couldn't help but think of the look in the child's eyes when he looked at him.
Despair, helplessness, confusion…
No word could describe what Zhu Di saw in the child's eyes at that time.
He couldn't even believe that such clear yet turbid eyes could exist in this world.
"Selling children!"
"How can there be such parents in this world! How can you bear to see your own child…"
"Hey, Sixth Brother, don't talk nonsense. If it wasn't for the fact that there's no way out, no one would be willing to sell their child.”
"Then…What if the child was abused after being bought?”
"That's still better than staying by my side and starving to death!”
...
When the princes who were originally curious heard this heavy question, they were shocked.
The expression on his face could not help but become suppressed.
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang's descendants had not been given titles.
In the harem, there was Empress Ma to restrain them.
Outside, Zhu Biao, the big brother, was taking care of them.
Basically, every prince had a healthy temperament.
Of course, there would still be occasional mischievous and foppish ones.
But at least, they still had goodwill and a bottom line in their hearts.
Therefore, when they heard this topic, they could not help but imagine it.
Empress Ma watched as the children fell into deep thought and depression, but she had no intention of interrupting them.
She just looked at them quietly.
There was even a gratified expression on the corner of his mouth.
These children had never suffered much since they were young. Now, they could experience the suffering of the common people in this way.
It was also a good thing for them.
"Everyone, don't look so sad. I left ten taels of silver for the child's parents. The child wasn't bought by anyone.”
After Zhu Di came back to his senses, he quickly changed the topic after seeing the faces of his brothers.
"Let me tell you, the way Imperial Father and I walked over, the road was full of potholes. I almost vomited. Just when I couldn't help but want to vomit, what did you do?”
"Our carriage suddenly stabilized. Moreover, that kind of stability was even more stable than running on the streets outside the Imperial Palace.”
"After walking for a while, I looked out of the window. Guess what?”
...
Just as the group of princes 'interest was being piqued by Zhu Di...
In the end, he actually stopped talking…
