Palace of Heavenly Purity, Hall of Heart Cultivation.
Zhu Di took off his dragon robe under the service of the young eunuch and sat down on the couch. He rubbed his sore waist and grinned."Aiyo, this old man is so tired.”
This morning, Zhu Di sat in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute, receiving the worship of various countries.
There were more than 40 countries in total. Zhu Di was exhausted after paying homage for four hours.
Zhu Gaoyan eagerly ran behind Zhu Di and raised his two small fists." Dad, let me massage your back."”
Zhu Di laughed." My old son is still sensible. He's not like those three ingrates who only know how to stand there.”
Your Highness, Zhu Gaochi and his brothers blushed.
Zhu Gaochi kicked Zhu Zhanji's foot. Zhu Zhanji understood and quickly trotted forward to lift one of Zhu Di's legs.
"Grandpa, let me massage your legs."
"Yes…"
Zhu Di closed his eyes comfortably and asked,""Boss, have the envoys settled down?”
Zhu Gaochi replied," Everything has been arranged properly. The Ministry of Rites will go over in the afternoon and deliver all kinds of daily necessities to the welcoming courtyard."”
"The money has also been exchanged for banknotes. Each courtyard has two eunuchs and a palace maid.”
Zhu Di nodded." Not bad."”
"You're a guest. Don't neglect him and lose the face of our country.”
"Pass down the decree. Tomorrow night, I will hold a banquet for the envoys of the various countries in the Western Courtyard.”
"Boss, I'll leave this matter to you.”
"It is my duty to share Your Majesty's worries," Zhu Gaochi hurriedly said.”
Zhu Di then looked at Zhu Gaosui." Third Brother, has there been any movement in the city in the past two days?”
Zhu Gaosui knew what Zhu Di was asking and said loudly,""Father, your son has doubled the number of Brocade Guards patrolling and imposed a curfew at night.”
"Whether it's the assassins or the people from the Network, they won't dare to appear again.”
"I don't dare, but that doesn't mean I can't!" Zhu Di said expressionlessly.”
"Now that the various countries have come to court, it is a time of chaos. You have to treat it carefully.”
"If the mess from last time happens again, watch how I deal with you!”
As he spoke, he glared at Zhu Gaosui.
Zhu Gaosui instantly wilted and stood properly.
Zhu Di retracted his gaze and sighed faintly.
Zhu Gaoyan secretly laughed. If the old man knew that the owner of the net was right beside him, he wondered what Zhu Di would think.
Zhu Gaoxu rolled his eyes and walked forward to lift Zhu Di's other leg. He placed it on his knee and began to massage it seriously.
Zhu Di narrowed his eyes and snorted." You're trying to curry favor for no reason. Tell me, what trouble do you want to cause?"”
"Dad, you can't always look at people with colored eyes."”
Zhu Di blew his beard and glared at him." I'm not looking at you. Can I just kick you?"”
After saying that, he pretended to kick.
Zhu Gaoxu quickly pressed down on Zhu Di's thigh and chuckled," Father, it's nothing else."
"You see, the boss is busy with the banquet, and the third brother is in charge of patrolling the city. I can't just sit around and do nothing. I have to share some of your worries.”
"Why don't I take care of the emissaries? Boss was stingy. It was not good to neglect others.”
Zhu Di thought about it and felt that what Zhu Gaoxu said made sense. He nodded and then added.
"How about this, let Fourth Brother go with you.”
"You're ugly and thick, and you don't know how to speak.”
Zhu Gaoxu:
"Grandpa, what about me?" Zhu Zhanji said with a flattering expression. What can I do for you?"
Zhu Di rolled his eyes." What do you think you should do?”
"You're almost twenty, but you're still wandering around alone. Your younger brothers have already married several wives.”
"Tomorrow night's banquet, everyone will bring their female companions. You're a great-grandson, and you're going alone. Aren't you embarrassed?”
Zhu Zhanji said bitterly,"Grandpa, there isn't anyone suitable. We can't force this."”
"Bullshit!"
Zhu Di was so angry that he kicked Zhu Zhanji's butt." From now on, you go and look for him."”
"I don't believe that a grand grandson can't even find a woman.”
"Tomorrow night, you must bring someone! Get lost!"
Zhu Zhanji left dejectedly.
Zhu Di stood up and placed his hands on his waist.
Zhu Gaoyan and the other three also stood in front of Zhu Di.
Zhu Di said," Alright, everyone has their own tasks. Let's get to work now."”
"Remember, now that all the countries are here, it's not the time to play around.”
"Everyone, promise me that you won't cause any trouble!”
Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Gaotong, and Zhu Gaoyan said in unison,"We promise that we won't cause trouble for Father!”
Zhu Di nodded." Get lost."
...
They left the palace.
The few of them started to talk more.
Zhu Gaoxu put his arm around Zhu Gaoyan's shoulder and laughed,""Fourth Brother, from today onwards, we will be working together.”
"You have a lot of ideas. If there's anything that Second Brother can't do, you have to help Second Brother more.”
Zhu Gaoyan put on a fake smile." Second Brother, I'm not as good as you in terms of trickery. You're the king of ideas in our Ming Dynasty.”
Zhu Gaoxu's face twitched.
Coincidentally, Zheng He walked over.
Zhu Gaoxu smiled and walked forward." Brother Ma Bao, how have you been?"”
Zheng He cupped his hands and bowed to the four of them." Greetings, Crown Prince and the three princes. Zheng He is about to go to the palace for a banquet.”
Zhu Gaoxu patted Zheng He's shoulder." You are a hero of our Ming Dynasty."”
"Right, when you go to the emperor, don't forget to put in a good word for me.”
Zheng He smiled shyly." Your Highness must be joking. Zheng He will take his leave first.”
"Go ahead."
After Zheng He left, Zhu Gaoyan and the others also parted ways.
Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui walked together. Zhu Gaoxu sneered and said,""Third Bro, did you see that? After she left, her heart became wild.”
Zhu Gaosui also sneered," I saw it at the Hall of Heaven's Tribute.”
"Us two brothers are warm and cold, taking the initiative to greet him.”
"He ignored us and fought to talk to someone else.”
"Hehe, I can see that this kid wants to stand on a new side.”
Zhu Gaoxu crossed his fingers behind his head and sighed,""There's no other way, who asked us brothers to not be liked by the emperor.”
"One of them is the crown prince, with a high status and power; One was his old son, whom he doted on and protected.”
"We brothers are just foul-skinned. We'll only be able to do some hard work for the rest of our lives.”
"Let's go to my place to drink."
"Let's go!"
The two of them walked away.
At the same time, a guard standing guard in the palace glanced at Zhu Gaoxu and the other man before turning to leave.
