In the conversation with Xu Mingde, Xu Mingwu gradually understood the national conditions of the Ming Dynasty and had a general understanding of the world.

Suddenly, one day, Xu Mingde said to Xu Mingwu in private: "Brother, brother has to remind you, you must not have a deep friendship with the second prince......

"Why?" Xu Mingwu was surprised.

Xu Mingde leaned in and whispered a few words, his face serious.

"What? Did the second prince kill someone when he was eight years old? Xu Mingwu sighed in a low voice.

Xu Mingde nodded and said, "Not only did he kill him, but even the current prince killed ..... when he was eight years old."

After listening to his brother's story, Xu Mingwu was shocked and muttered: "Lao Tzu let his son cut people from an early age? This is a ruthless family! ”

Only then did he realize that this Tianwu Emperor was able to lift the building back up at the end of the Ming Dynasty, not as simple as having money, but with greater courage and ferocity!

Xu Mingde continued: "These two are not fuel-efficient lamps, my father once warned me not to have a deep friendship with any prince, even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has been appointed as the prince!" ”

Xu Mingwu asked tentatively: "Father doesn't want to stand in line early?" ”

Xu Mingde shook his head: "My father has already stood in line." ”

"The old man is already in line?"

Xu Mingwu was stunned, and just wanted to ask which team was standing in Pingyang Houfu, but he saw his brother wave his hand and said, "Mingwu, you just have to study hard and go up every day!" As for the rest, leave it to my father and eldest brother! ”

Looking at his brother's serious face, Xu Mingwu's heart was warm, and his cheap father had also said such things to him.

It is said that the eldest brother is like a father, and Xu Mingde, as the eldest son of the Hou Mansion, can have such a heart-to-heart relationship with the young son born from his concubine, which is really not easy......

At this moment, Xu Mingwu felt a sense of belonging in his heart, and began to slowly regard himself as a person from the Pingyang Hou Mansion.

Just when Xu Ershao was moved, he heard his brother say: "Big brother knows that you are smart, so he specially enrolled you in a foreign language interest class!" ”

Xu Mingwu was speechless for a while, it's all in the seventeenth century, why are interest classes still popular?

He questioned: "What do you do when you learn a foreign language?" Aren't we strong in the Ming Dynasty? Need to learn from foreigners? ”

Xu Mingde said: "Let you learn a foreign language, not let you learn foreigners, we are used for war!" ”

He blurred an earth in the air, pointed to one of them and said: "You see, our Ming Dynasty is now the hegemon of the East, and in the future, we will inevitably fight with England and France for the Western world. ”

Xu Mingwu's eyes widened: "Big brother, are we so awesome?" Thinking about unifying the world? ”

"That's a must! Your Majesty is not yet in the age of confusion, and we are all young, what are we doing without fighting? Also, from an economic point of view, when a country's economic development reaches a certain point, it is necessary to launch a foreign battlefield......"

Xu Mingwu was completely convinced, this kind of remarks, since entering the Huangming Military Academy, I have often heard people say this, it seems that all the officers and students here are eager for war!

"Then big brother, how many Chinese languages do you speak?"

"There aren't many people who know, it's just Shikoku, and I'm currently working hard to learn Russian and try to pass the assessment at the end of the year......"

“......”

Pressure, full of pressure, just like that, under the fierce pressure of the language genius brother, Xu Mingwu entered a heavy learning career.

......

In May, the spring flowers in the Huangming Military Academy bloomed and it was peaceful.

That night, Xu Mingwu had just finished his French class, walked out of his brother's study, and strolled through a small secluded garden.

Flowers and trees are flourishing, the warm breeze is blowing, the scenery is pleasant, when a bright moon rises quietly in the sky, and the bright moonlight sprinkles a piece of silver white, shining on the branches of the spring buds.

Xu Mingwu walked in the moonlight, and unconsciously arrived at the pond of the artificial lake.

Looking at the sparkling water, the floating lotus leaves swaying in the wind, and the frog calls from the lotus leaves, Xu Mingwu had a whim and wanted to write a poem.

So he said loudly: "Frog frog, croaking in the quiet night, leisurely on the lotus leaf, poking and jumping!" ”

Suddenly, in the depths of the willows on the shore, a sharp rebuke sounded: "What people! ”

Xu Mingwu didn't expect that there were other people by the pond, he was startled, he followed the prestige, and saw two people, one tall and one short, coming out under the shade of the willows.

Both of them were dressed in the uniforms of the Huangming Military Academy, and they seemed to be alumni, but it seemed that the military uniforms of these two looked more upscale.

The two swaggered over, and by the moonlight, Xu Mingwu probably saw the appearance of the two clearly.

The guy on the left of the two has long eyebrows, is like a jade tree, gentle and elegant, a big man of about 1.8 meters, and is a standard handsome guy.

The one on the right is thin, with a fair complexion, willow eyebrows and big eyes, very delicate, and about one meter and six meters tall.

especially cooperated with the shout just now, giving Xu Mingwu a feeling of a sissy.

I heard this guy come over and shout in a sharp voice: "If you don't go back to the barracks late at night, what are you doing here?" ”

Being regarded as a thief in the middle of the night, Xu Mingwu was angry, so he directly said: "I won't go back to the barracks late at night to chant poems here, it's your business!" I think you're the ones who are sneaky! ”

The other party is the military uniform of officers and students, Xu Mingwu doesn't need to be polite!

The little white face laughed three times when he heard this, and sneered: "At your level, you still come out to chant poetry?" It's just a laugh out of the big teeth! ”

Xu Mingwu just wanted to reprimand this little white face for a few words, but he saw the big man next to him standing majestically, not angry and arrogant, and the corners of his mouth slowly rose by three points, as if he disdained his literary talent.

Xu Mingwu suppressed his anger, stood with his hands in his hands, and posed in a pretending pose, and said: "The poem I just wrote, called "Yong Frog", is my original work, two great talents, why don't you come to the next one?" ”

Xiaobai's face sneered: "What a "Yong Frog", it simply humiliated Luo Bingwang, one of the four masters!" Fighting poetry with you, I disdain! ”

Xu Ming was happy, pointed at him and said with a smile: "At first glance, you are an uneducated person, you won't say no, what kind of calf is it, everyone is a martial artist, what kind of cultured person is pretending!" ”

"You're uneducated!"

Xiaobai's face was a little anxious: "Who said I can't compose poetry!" ”

"Then you have a song!"

"Come on!"

The little white face gasped for a few breaths, then rolled his eyes, and opened his mouth to compose a poem: "Chicken, chicken, chicken, the sharp mouth cries to the sky, the three watches call the bright moon, and the five drums call the dawn!" ”

Xu Mingwu suddenly opened his mouth and stammered, and the little white face returned the other body with the other way, and attacked the shield of the son with the spear of the son, which was obviously even more clever.

"How? How is my song "Song of the Chicken"? ”

Xiao Bai took two steps forward with his hands behind his back arrogantly, looking like he wanted to compete with Xu Mingwu.

"Zhiwei, forget it."

The tall and handsome guy next to him finally spoke, he nodded slightly at Xu Mingwu and said, "It's just a misunderstanding, it's rude to stir up Brother Tai Yaxing." ”

Paper Wei? I'm still in Erkang!

Xu Mingwu slandered in his heart, but seeing that this handsome guy was quite polite, he didn't entangle, and said with a smile: "Everyone is a colleague and comrade-in-arms, a little thing, it's okay, dare to ask Brother Taizun's surname?" Do you have time to chant poems together under the moon before this flower? ”

The tall young man smiled slightly: "Under Zhu Fan, dare to ask the name of Brother Tai?" ”

"Xu Mingwu!"

Xu Mingwu had just reported his name, but when he saw the guy opposite, his face suddenly turned unkind.
