"Zhanchen, the army is not like home. Don't be picky. Follow your big brother for everything. He has experience and will take care of you.”
"Also, the border is very cold. Put on more clothes and don't catch a cold. Those military doctors are not as capable as the imperial doctors in the palace.”
"Remember, you must write a letter back on time.”
……
Zhang shi looked at him and reminded him.
Zhu Zhan Xin was speechless. What was this? He was picky, but there was better food. Of course, he could choose whatever he wanted.
It wasn't like he couldn't eat anything other than that. What the hell was with the cold? He was a dignified sixth-stage Qi Refining cultivator, so why would he catch a cold?
It had to be some kind of cold wind. As for writing a letter…that was the main point.
Looking at Zhang shi's worried face, he could only nod.
"Alright, the child will leave eventually. Don't worry.”
Zhu Gaochi comforted her.
Then, he told Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanxin to leave quickly. The longer they stayed, the sadder Zhang shi would be.
Zhu Zhanji nodded and turned to look at him.
"Let's go."
Zhang shi looked at their backs and stretched out her hand. In the end, she put it down weakly.
Zhu Gaochi pulled her into his arms and patted her back to comfort her.
A few soldiers were waiting at the entrance with two tall horses. Zhu Zhanji stepped forward to take the reins and sat on them.
Zhu Zhan Xin looked at the horse in front of him and fell into deep thought.
Don't get me wrong, he knew how to ride a horse. However, he thought of a problem. It seemed a little far from here to the border. How long would he have to ride a horse for?
"Nephew Zhanchen! This…"
At this moment, he suddenly heard a familiar voice. He turned his head and saw King Zhao. He was driving a horse carriage towards them.
"Phew!"
"Nephew Zhan Chen, what do you think of this carriage?”
He looked at Zhu Zhan Xin and said with a smile.
"Third Uncle, what are you doing?"
Zhu Zhanji rode his horse over with some doubts.
"Isn't this the first time nephew Zhan Chen is going on a long journey? I was afraid that he wouldn't be used to riding a horse, so I found a carriage for him.”
"Haha!"
Zhu Zhanji was speechless. This Third Uncle was really capable of anything.
"Nephew Zhanchen, what are you standing there for? Get on, it's much more comfortable in the carriage than on the horse.”
Zhao Wang shouted at him.
"I say, Fifth Brother, you don't know how to do it?"
Before Zhu Zhanji could finish speaking, Zhu Zhanxin had already stepped onto the carriage.
"Thank you, Second Uncle!"
"Sigh, we're all family. There's no need to thank me. Your father instructed me to take good care of you.”
As he spoke, he whipped the horse and led the carriage forward.
That's great!
Zhu Zhanxin did not expect that this Third Uncle was quite good. In the past, he always looked at him with a stern face and thought that he was very fierce.
From the looks of it now, he wasn't fierce at all. He was even very enthusiastic. After all, they were a family. It was only right for them to take care of each other.
As he thought about it, he crawled into the carriage.
After entering, he realized that the carriage was quite big. Most importantly, there was food inside, all of which he liked.
This Third Uncle was really considerate!
As he thought about it, he lay down on the ground and started eating.
"Nephew Zhan Xin, how is it? Is the thing that Third Uncle bought for you to your liking?”
Sensing the commotion inside, King Zhao asked.
"Yes, Third Uncle is my favorite.”
Zhu Zhan replied vaguely.
"As long as you like it!"
King Zhao was obviously in a good mood. He even swung his whip with more energy.
Zhu Zhanji rode on his horse and looked at the carriage in front of him with a complicated expression. He thought, Is Zhu Zhanyan really here to fight?
Wait, it didn't seem like he was here to fight.
Only then did Zhu Zhanji think of this problem. The old man had asked Zhu Zhanji to go to the border in order to stay away from the whirlpool in the capital.
Then it seems that there is no problem with Fifth Brother doing this.
However, he felt that something was wrong. When he was brought to war, he sat in front of Zhu Di.
The horse was so bumpy that he threw up his meal from last night. Even so, Zhu Di still let him stay on the horse.
How could the men of the Zhu family not be used to horses?
Now, looking at Zhu Zhanxin and himself, he immediately felt the gap.
He thought for a moment and seemed to have made up his mind. He swung the whip in his hand and chased after the carriage.
"Giddyup!"
……
"I say, Fifth Brother, you can't do this. As a man of the Zhu Clan, how can there be anyone who isn't used to riding a horse?”
Zhu Zhanji looked at Chun Chun and said.
"Big Brother, you're right!"
Zhu Zhanxin gave him a thumbs up.
"A foreign horse is also a horse. It seems that my realm is still too low. I didn't expect the old man to have such foresight back then.”
Zhu Zhan Xin sighed.
"Yangma? What horse is that?"
King Zhao was puzzled.
"A foreign horse is a good thing. Simply put, it's a horse from the West.”
Zhu Zhan smiled. At this moment, they naturally did not understand what he meant.
"Oh, is that so? Then Third Uncle will bring one over another day. Do you want the big one or the small one?”
Zhu Zhanxin blurted out without thinking.
"Of course I want a big one!"
After saying that, he finally realized that King Zhao wasn't joking.
"Third Uncle, I'm just joking. Something as rare as a foreign horse must be expensive. I don't have that much money.”
"Sigh, don't worry, nephew Zhan Chen. Third Uncle wants your money?”
King Zhao waved his hand and said with a nonchalant expression.
As he spoke, he picked up a chicken on the table and started eating. Zhu Zhanji, who was beside him, had already started eating.
That's right, they were in the carriage now.
Zhu Zhanji finally understood. Why couldn't he relax if he could?
Moreover, he wasn't slacking off, but taking care of his fifth brother.
Yes! This chicken was really fragrant!
As for the King of Zhao, he saw Zhu Zhanji go in to eat and drink, so he was naturally unhappy.
I'm driving a carriage for nephew Zhanli because I'm willing. What's the matter with you coming up here?
However, he couldn't chase her away, so he simply followed her in.
Fortunately, the carriage was spacious enough, and the three of them could eat and drink here without affecting anything.
"It's not good to have meat without wine.”
King Zhao smacked his lips and suddenly thought of something.
"By the way, speaking of foreign horses, I remember that I still have a bottle of foreign wine here!”
As he spoke, he rummaged under his seat and found a silver-plated glass bottle.
Zhu Zhanji's heart skipped a beat when he saw the wine in his hand.
"Don't worry, this wine is boring. It's all drunk by those women in the capital. I don't even know how long ago I left it here.”
Zhao Wang saw Zhu Zhanji's worry and quickly explained.
He was not stupid, so he would not do such a stupid thing. How strong could this foreign wine be? He would just taste it after drinking a bottle.
Besides, there was only so much wine in total. It would be fine if Zhan Jue drank less.
Hearing the King of Zhao's explanation, Zhu Zhanji heaved a small sigh of relief, but he didn't dare to relax.
Wine?
Zhu Zhan looked at the wine in King Zhao's hand. Wasn't this special grape wine?
"Nephew Zhanchen, are you here to test it out?"
King Zhao looked at him and smiled.
Zhu Zhanhao nodded. He didn't expect to be able to drink wine in this era.
Then, under Zhu Zhanji's watchful gaze, the King of Zhao poured a cup for him and then another cup for Zhu Zhanji.
Then, he picked up the bottle and drank it.
Zhu Zhan took a bite. Yes, that was the taste!
But how should he put it? In the past, he always thought that western wine was high-end wine, and white wine was ordinary wine.
However, when he came to the Ming Dynasty and drank the imperial wine in the palace, he knew what good wine was. Foreign wine was nothing compared to this.
Of course, he wasn't an alcoholic. He was just sighing.
The carriage gradually moved further away, and the figures of the army gradually began to blur.
……
"Zhan Jue left?"
In the bedroom, Zhu Di looked at the Crown Prince and the King of Han.
"Let's go."
Zhu Gaochi smiled. This time, the big stone in his heart was finally lifted.
"Yes, it's good that he left. I'm worried about him in the capital.”
Zhu Di nodded and narrowed his eyes.
"Second, Crown Prince, you can do it. I want to find all those hidden rats!”
"Yes, sir!"
Then, the two of them looked at each other and smiled.
The second day after the Northern Expedition left the capital.
The atmosphere in the capital suddenly became subtle. First, there was news that the Crown Prince had killed his father to seize power.
In fact, they all knew that the Crown Prince could not have killed his father, but someone was secretly adding fuel to the fire.
What worried them even more was that the Han King had yet to make a move. The ferocious beasts that bared their fangs were not scary, but the venomous snakes that hid their fangs were the most fatal.
The entire capital seemed to be calm now, but it was really a mess.
