Under King Zhao's lead, they arrived at a large camp.
Just as they reached the door, a group of generals were already waiting for them.
"Your Highness King Zhao."
Everyone shouted in unison.
"Alright, what are you waiting for? Go in.”
King Zhao waved his hand and laughed.
Walking into the room, under the swaying lights, several tables were filled with food, and large jars of wine were casually piled on the side.
"Third Uncle, go and greet them first.”
The King of Zhao whispered to him.
"Third Uncle, go ahead. I'm not a child.”
Zhu Zhan Xin didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he saw his expression. The King of Zhao was simply overly worried about him. This was the military camp.
Who would dare to come and cause trouble? Moreover, if that kind of thing really happened, the one who should be worried should be the other party.
As long as it wasn't an army charging in, or a siege with cannons, he really didn't care about ordinary assassinations.
"Nephew, take good care of your fifth brother.”
The King of Zhao instructed Zhu Zhanji.
"Alright, I got it."
Zhu Zhanji was also speechless. The King of Zhao was making it seem as if Zhanyu was his son.
After that, the King of Zhao went up and clinked glasses with those generals. Yes, there was no nonsense. They went up and drank.
The men in the army were domineering. They would drink first before talking. If they couldn't, they would have two meals. After drinking a glass of wine, there was nothing that couldn't be handled well.
"Third Uncle, can he hold on?”
Zhu Zhan Xin saw that the King of Zhao was surrounded by a group of generals and could not help but ask.
He wasn't worried. Instead, he was curious.
"Don't worry, they're all acquaintances. They know their limits.”
Zhu Zhanji took out a piece of meat from somewhere and started chewing on it. As he chewed, he gulped down the wine.
Seeing Zhu Zhanji eat so happily, he couldn't sit still anymore. He picked up a piece of meat from the table and started eating as well.
The meat wasn't very delicious, but the generals around them ate it with gusto.
That was true. This was not the capital. It was already good enough to have a meal here.
If the generals here really started to eat delicacies, then it would be a big problem.
Before the King of Zhao could escape, several generals walked up to Zhu Zhanji.
"Isn't this Zhanji? It's been a while since we last met.”
"The emperor sent you here again?”
"Zhanji, you're not young anymore. Have you found any good girls?”
When
Zhu Zhanji heard this, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He quickly put down the food in his hand and cupped his hands at them.
"Uncles, stop teasing Zhanji. Come! A toast to all of you."
As he spoke, he poured a cup of wine from the wine jar and drank it.
Zhu Zhanji watched with interest.
"Come, uncles, let me introduce you. This is my fifth brother, Zhan Xin.”
Zhu Zhanji pulled over Zhu Zhanxin, who was watching the show from the side, and introduced him to them.
"These were all promoted by my father back then.”
Zhu Zhanji whispered into his ear, gritting his teeth.
Zhu Zhan Xin was slightly surprised. He thought that his unremarkable father only had some connections in the court.
He didn't expect that this hand could actually extend to the army.
But thinking about it, he understood. If he really only had those civil officials under him, then how could his position as Crown Prince be so stable?
Similarly, the King of Han and the King of Zhao had their own people in the court.
"Hello, uncles."
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanyi shouted, and then prepared to imitate Zhu Zhanji and drink with them.
However, Zhu Zhanji was quick to react and immediately took his wine down.
"Haha, that, please forgive me, uncles. My fifth brother is still young. When he came, my mother told me to watch over him.”
As he spoke, he raised his glass and downed it.
The generals didn't mind. They simply greeted Zhu Zhanyi and continued to chat with Zhu Zhanji.
They couldn't be blamed for this. As the eldest son of the first wife, Zhu Zhanji's ability was outstanding. If the Crown Prince really reached that step, then Zhu Zhanji would be the one.
Of course, in terms of ability, they had to admit that Zhu Zhanji had the courage of a Zhu family man.
As for Zhu Zhanyi, they thought that it was Zhu Zhanji who brought him here to witness the scene.
"Zhanji, how has the Crown Prince been recently?”
After chatting for a while, one of the generals suddenly asked.
"It's not like you don't know my father's body. He's still the same.”
Zhu Zhanji smiled without a trace of a flaw on his face.
Hearing this, Zhu Zhan was slightly stunned. Why didn't they know about the Crown Prince's affairs?
Zhu Zhanji turned around and smiled at him.
Zhu Zhanji nodded. He understood what Zhu Zhanji meant.
Thinking about it, it made sense. The duty of these generals was to guard the border. There were some things in the court that they really couldn't let them know.
What if they panicked or had ulterior motives?
Therefore, to put it bluntly, perhaps they might not even know if Da Ming had changed the Emperor without anyone informing them.
This was also the reason why the King of Han and the King of Zhao had to stay in the capital and not go to the vassal states.
Communication was inconvenient in ancient times. Once they were far away from the center of power, they really had no chance at all.
Of course, the situation was different now. They had more important things to do in the capital.
At this moment, he seemed to have thought of something and looked at Zhao Wang who was still drinking.
After a while, Zhu Zhanji, who was heavily reeking of alcohol, walked over.
"We finally fooled them.”
Zhu Zhanji sighed.
Those generals came to probe him. Although they were not well-informed, they were not stupid.
Zhu Zhanji was someone who had seen it before, so how could he not guess what they meant?
They just wanted to know how the Crown Prince was doing and whether the power in the court was still in the Crown Prince's hands.
In this regard, Zhu Zhanji would be half-hearted if he could, but if he really couldn't, he would be vague.
Although these generals treated him well, they all had their own selfish motives.
Thinking of this, he could not help but sigh.
After that, he turned to look at Zhu Zhan Xin, thinking that he should finish these things quickly. When Zhu Di was free, he could cultivate in peace.
These trivial matters would not bother him.
"Yes, what happened to Fifth Brother?"
Zhu Zhanji looked at him as he stared in the direction of the King of Zhao.
"I say, big brother, what do you think of Third Uncle?”
Zhu Zhan asked.
Zhu Zhanji was stunned. Why would he ask this?
Then, he frowned. He really didn't know how to answer this question.
To be honest, he really couldn't be said to be one. He was in cahoots with Second Uncle, and everyone knew this. In those years, he had caused a lot of trouble for the Crown Prince.
But you say he's not good, right? He was so attentive to Zhan Chen along the way, and Zhan Chen didn't know about these things. From Zhan Chen's point of view, he was indeed a good uncle.
Just as he was thinking about how to answer, Zhu Zhan Xin's next sentence stunned him.
"I plan to let Third Uncle cultivate as well.”
