Chapter 159: The Two Kings Fight for Wealth
"Mr. Liu, my father is going to Beijing!"
Zhu Gaochi shook his round body, shouting loudly from the door, happy to run out of breath with the fat mouse who stole the lamp oil. Zhu Gaoxu, who was following him, was not very happy.
He played very well in the capital, not only was he praised as a prodigy, but also learned kung fu from Lan Yu...... Among the emperor's and grandsons, Zhu Gaoxu is the youngest, but he is the most talented.
No matter how hard he practiced and how many times he fell, Zhu Gaoxu never cried.
Lan Yu really likes Zhu Gaoxu, if he is the son of the prince, Lan Yu wants to support him as a grandson! It's Zhu Di's son, it's really sad!
Lan Yu sighed for Zhu Gaoxu, but in teaching kung fu, Lan Yu did not hide his selfishness at all, and even taught more carefully.
The surname Lan is a man who stands up to the sky, we have to let Zhu Laosi know that I don't like you, but I won't be angry with your son, on the contrary, I will hand over all my skills to Zhu Gaoxu, let him be blue, and wait until you Zhu Laosi is compared to his own son, it will be interesting.
"Brother Liu!"
Zhu Gaoxu approached Liu Chun and suddenly said, "Can you let my father have a meal with my master?" ”
Liu Chun was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Second son, do you want to make peace for them?" ”
Zhu Gaoxu pouted and said, "Master is really kind to me, I want him to make friends with my father......
Liu Chun touched Zhu Gaoxu's head, "Second son, I know the idea, but the matter of adults is not so simple...... Lan Yu is a general in the court, and it is not a good thing for close ministers to make friends with foreign vassals, and it will make your imperial grandfather jealous. Liu Chun paused, and then said: "Second son, don't worry, with me, I won't let them really fall out." ”
Zhu Gaoxu's face was calm, and he could only nod. What even Liu Chun can't do, others are even more hopeless.
At this time, Xiao Chubby Dun said again: "Second brother, you still don't care about the affairs of adults, think about how you should explain to your father!" ”
"Confess what?"
"Of course, you beat Zhu Shangbing! I heard that the second uncle has entered Beijing, what do you say if he sues his father? Zhu Gaochi reminded.
Zhu Gaoxu rolled his eyes, "He is obviously much older than me, and he was chased and beaten by me, and he planted one!" If he dares to sue, I will go to the imperial grandfather! ”
"Clever!"
The little chubby dun pouted and said, "The second brother is indeed powerful, but if the emperor's grandfather doesn't see us, what should we do?" ”
Zhu Gaoxu snorted, "Do you have an idea?" ”
"Well, let's go find Aunt Hanshan, the emperor's grandfather likes her the most, and with Aunt Hanshan to help you speak, you don't have to be beaten."
Zhu Gaoxu nodded subconsciously, but quickly raised his chin and said arrogantly: "Hit it, my father will beat me, I will hit Zhu Shangbing ten times, and the complaint will not end well!" ”
really deserves to be the little cub who is most like Zhu Di, it's really ruthless!
To Liu Chun's surprise, King Qin also entered Beijing, and he entered Beijing before Zhu Di.
Zhu Yuanzhang advocates frugality, but is unwilling to disturb the people. Therefore, several vassal kings do not have the opportunity to meet His Majesty every year. This year, it was because of the complete pacification of the Northern Yuan, the full treasury, and the fact that Lao Zhu was also old, so he made a bloody investment to hold this longevity celebration.
Including Zhu Di, the King of Qin, the King of Jin, the King of Zhou, and the King of Qi, all of them will enter Beijing together to celebrate their father's birthday, which is very lively.
"Mr. Liu, let's go to the dock together tomorrow to greet my father, how about it?"
Can Yoo Chun refuse!
"Well, I also want to see how many good things His Royal Highness King Yan can bring!"
The next day, Liu Chun took the two little guys to the dock, and as soon as he went out, he ran into Xu Zengshou and Xu Miaojin, "The eldest sister is also here, let's go to meet the eldest sister." ”
The five of them gathered together and headed for the docks.
Seeing that it was almost there, suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves, and there was dust in the back, and a few cavalry in front opened the way.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way! The prince arrived, and the idle people waited to get out! ”
They are very arrogant and arrogant, and the people on the road, if they neglect a little, will be whipped.
Liu Chun's carriage fortunately dodged quickly, otherwise the coachman would have been drawn...... Xu Zengshou lifted the curtain of the car, looked outside, and then squealed fiercely: "What a majestic King Qin!" This is to treat the capital as Xi'an, unscrupulous! ”
Xu Zengshou gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do, Qin King Zhu Fan was the second son of Lao Zhu, born to Queen Ma, and he was very favored, even if he didn't even care about the words of Prince Zhu Biao.
Xu Miaojin said curiously: "What medicine did this King Qin take, why did he go to the dock?" ”
Xu Zengshou said: "I don't know, maybe I'm going to pick up King Yan!" ”
"It's not!"
Zhu Gaoxu said in a sullen voice: "I heard Zhu Shangbing say that his father brought a lot of gifts to give to the emperor's grandfather!" ”
"Oh!"
Xu Zengshou said: "I know, he wants to see how many things King Yan has brought, and he is in a hurry to show off!" ”
Hearing this, the corners of Liu Chun's mouth twitched twice, "That...... We can mourn for King Qin! ”
As the second son of Lao Zhu, Zhu Fan was sealed to Xi'an early...... The name of Xi'an, is the Ming Dynasty began to use, when Xu Da led the army to capture Fengyuan Road, was changed to Xi'an Mansion, and later the Qin King Zhu Fan on the Xi'an, the court has made great efforts to renovate the city, build the royal city.
The whole pattern of Xi'an is similar to Nanjing, but the difference is that the scale is much smaller.
Zhu Fan is not a waste...... I have to admit that Zhu Yuanzhang's godson still has two sons. Zhu Fan was able to write and martial arts, and when he took office, he attacked the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty several times and made military achievements.
Moreover, he is also very talented in business, using the pastures enclosed in the Yuan Dynasty to raise more than 100,000 sheep, and selling wool to various places every year to make huge profits.
Therefore, some seniors who rely on sheep to eat people should pay attention, this trick is really not new, at least Zhu Fan can think of it, and he has practiced it.
The effect is also quite good.
King Qin was very wealthy among the vassal kings, and before Liu Chun appeared, even Zhu Di couldn't compare to him.
"The king offered treasures, spices, furs, medicinal herbs, and other things to his father, and more than 100 carts. The fourth brother is in Beiping, but he has such a big hand? ”
Zhu Fan rode on his horse and laughed loudly.
His entourage hurriedly flattered: "Lord Wang, where can King Yan compare to you, our Lord Wang, is the number one filial son in the world, who doesn't know?" Do you think so? ”
If the people under him dare to say anything, they can only pat themselves on the back.
Zhu Fan listened and snorted, "That's a good point, but why did my father give him the two towns of Daning and Liaodong?" A prince, guarding three towns, the fourth brother is really majestic! ”
Zhu Fan gritted his teeth, he looked down on Zhu Di, after all, he was born to Queen Ma and was a sister-in-law, far from being comparable to a small role like Zhu Di.
It's just that Zhu Di has been in the limelight in the past two years, which made Zhu Fan very unhappy!
"This king wants to take a good look at how capable the fourth brother is! Can you climb on the king's head?" Zhu Fan ran all the way to the dock.
When he came, he heard the number being heard.
“…… 31 、32、33 ……”
"What is this for?"
Zhu Fan looked up and found that a huge Wanshi Cao boat appeared on the river, it turned out that these people were counting the number of boats, one, two, and soon there were more than forty!
That's a lot!
At this moment, someone next to him suddenly said, "You say, how many ships will King Yan bring this time?" ”
King Yan!
Fourth!
Zhu Fan rubbed his eyes, and then found that on all the boats, there was a small triangular flag hung with a swallow character embroidered in the middle.
These ships are all Zhu Di's?
When Zhu Fan was confused, the person next to him said: "This King Yan is really filial, how many things are this, tsk, it's really scary!" ”
Another person interjected: "Didn't the prince enter Beijing yesterday, didn't he bring many things?" ”
Speaking of Zhu Zhang.
"With it, there are only more than a hundred carriages, which is not as much as a ship...... What a man is better than a man! ”
Zhu Fan raised his eyebrows, his anger was high, and he wanted to teach this nonsense a lesson.
Suddenly, shouts rose from the dock.
"50, 50 ships!"
When the big ship, shaking its fat and full body, appeared at the dock, the crowd was boiling.
Zhu Fan is even more stupid, he doesn't have the courage to argue with Zhu Di at all.
He only has one question now, that is, how many ships did Zhu Di bring? How can the boats on the river listen to his dispatch, it is simply unreasonable!
No matter what Zhu Fan thought, the ships continued to pour in, filling up the free berths, and all the people were eager to try, waiting to carry the goods......
“…… 109,110,111! ”
The crowd is growing, the voices are getting louder, and there are more and more boats!
Anything else?
“…… 121,122……”
Zhu Fan suddenly found that he actually counted with those people, and he almost wanted to give himself a mouthful...... You're here to slap Zhu Di in the face, not to pump yourself!
“…… 127,128,129! ”
Finally, the number of ships did not exceed 130, Zhu Fan seemed to be relieved, and at this moment, someone stood at the bow of the ship and shouted, "This is the end of today, and there will be more tomorrow!" ”
Hearing this, Zhu Fan almost fell off the horse, and he had no face to compare with Zhu Di, hurry up!
The master lost his spirit, and even took the war horse as if he had lost the battle, and ran away from Liu Chun's carriage......
