In front of the gate of Ruyifang on the bank of the Qinhuai River, three hundred palace guards stood tall and crossed their swords to block the way, and tourists had to detour one after another when they saw this.

In the splendid hall, the old bustard and others were crowded in the corner, and the fan sisters were also hiding in the room and did not dare to come out.

Zhu Gaochi accompanied Zhu Zhi, the king of Liao, who was only two years older than him, and waited for the arrival of the guests, accompanied by Zhu Jixi, the son of the king of Jin, Zhu Youjiao, the second son of the king of Zhou, and Zhu Xunxuan, the son of the acting king. Not far away, Xu Hao sat alone at the table of the Eight Immortals.

Xu Hao, who was dressed in white, was already eye-catching enough to be in a group of princes in vermilion python robes, but everyone was standing while he was sitting.

Not only that, but Tang Chuer, the most famous brand of Ruyi Fang, was busy peeling Fu oranges, pouring tea, and serving him diligently, with a beautiful face and a willing face.

Zhu Youjiao and Zhu Xunxuan and other little princes are not angry, especially Zhu Xunxuan, he has spent a hundred taels of gold in the past few days just to see Tang Chu'er, who knows that Xu Hao, this kid does not spend a penny, Jinling Oiran actually took the initiative to greet him, not to mention that he has no consciousness of being an Oiran upside down sentient beings, and he is meticulous in serving Xu Hao, and he is really angry compared to people.

However, Xu Hao is his cousin, Xu Hao's second aunt and princess are his own mother, and he also knows that his cousin has never been easy to mess with.

It is natural that so many princes can greet the big frame by the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen, in addition to Wu Gao, the Marquis of Huaiyin, who returned victoriously, and Yang Wen, the new commander-in-chief of Liaodong, and Miyun, one of Zhu Yuanzhang's adopted sons, to make him safe.

The palace of Zhu Zhi, the king of Liao, in the fief has not been built, because he has lived in Hebei for many years, and Wu Gao and Yang Wen and other upstarts are nominally under his control, and one of Yang Wen's responsibilities is to be responsible for the completion of the Liao palace. Miyun, which was stationed in peace, was between Beiping and Liaodong, and was subject to the dual jurisdiction of Yanwangfu and Wu Gao, who guarded Liaodong.

The supreme commander of the border towns in the northeast has always been Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and even the vassal palaces such as the king of Liao, the king of Ning, and the king of Zhou must be controlled by the palace of the king of Yan. Therefore, Zhu Zhi called the Zhu Gaochi brothers, including the Jin Wangfu who commanded the border towns in the northwest.

"Childe, please."

Tang Chu'er raised the orange petal in her hand with a smile, Xu Hao opened her mouth with a smile, and the beauty gently touched the man's lips with her green fingers, making a silver bell-like laughter.

Xu Hao chewed the sweet juice and said with a smile: "As the saying goes, eating people has a short mouth, and it is difficult to absorb the grace of beauties." ”

Tang Chu'er chuckled and said, "I just ask my son to reward the slave with a few poems, and I will burn incense and bathe and sweep the couch tonight." ”

Zhu Gaoxu immediately squeezed his eyebrows and said, "People Chu'er are still Qingqi." You asked Zhu Xunxuan how much money he spent? ”

Xu Hao's eyes turned to Zhu Xunxuan, and he frowned: "Nonsense, you have been impeached for many illegal things in the fiefdom, and you dare to show off when you come to the capital?" ”

Zhu Xun hurriedly said: "Cousin, you listen to Zhu Gaoxu's nonsense, this king just wants to try his luck, who let them bet with each other." ”

"Bet?" Xu Hao's gaze turned to Tang Chu'er again, "Is it to compete for the position of Oiran this year?" You already have the support of the prince and grandson, who dares to compete with you? ”

Tang Chu'er saw that Xu Hao was faintly displeased, and hurriedly reached out to beat him on the shoulder. said: "This year's opponent Yang Qian'er has won the support of many sons and literati such as the Huang family, the Fang family, and Li Dai'er has the support of the Qi family and the Qin Wang's palace, and it is not yet known who will kill the deer." ”

Xu Hao somewhat understood, this seemed to be a battle of will between the younger generations in the capital. In fact, it reflects the political map of the Ming Dynasty today, and it also means that everyone knows that the emperor has few days left, and they can't wait to sweep away the suppression that the Hongwu Dynasty has been subjected to for many years.

Even if you don't win, it's not far away! After the death of the emperor, the court was naturally headed by Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng, Fang Xiaoru and others, the confidants of the new emperor Zhu Yunwen. What can compete with it is the major palaces, who called Zhu Yunwen shorter than the uncles, Zhu Gaoxu and them as brothers of the same generation. Dare to act unscrupulously.

It seems that the most pitiful one belongs to the sons of Xungui, and the oiran who fought for a small number of people has disappeared, in previous years, this kind of thing was the world of Li Jinglong and other brothers, which round got the sons and princes of Wenchen?

Suddenly, a gust of wind broke in from outside, and a charming beauty walked straight to Xu Hao with a fragrant breeze, which surprised all the princes, but fortunately, the woman didn't care.

Tang Chu'er suddenly said unhappily: "What are you doing here?" ”

The beauty smiled affectionately and said with a sweet smile: "I heard that the famous Xu Hao Gongzi of Jinling is here, how can the slave family not come to visit?" ”

Xu Hao asked, "Are you?" ”

"Li Dai'er, a slave, has seen Xu Gongzi." The beauty respectfully said a blessing.

It turned out to be the amorous Li Dai'er, one of the three Yans of Jinling, Xu Hao smiled bitterly: "Didn't you just make a song?" In the past, when I was a brocade guard, I didn't see you so diligent. ”

"Childe's poem of red beans really makes the sisters who are begging for life in the red dust such as the slave family must be moved to tears, and Childe can be said to be a confidant of the daughter's family."

After Li Dai'er finished speaking, she took the initiative to stand on the other side of Xu Hao, and smiled provocatively at Tang Chu'er, even Zhu Zhi, the king of Liao, began to envy Xu Hao, not to mention others.

While he was talking, Xu Wen and Xu Ji walked in outside, and said to Zhu Zhi, the king of Liao: "I have seen the prince, the crown prince is about to arrive at the behest of the saint, and the lower officials must first check the inside and outside of Ruyi Fang." ”

Zhu Zhi smiled: "You are at your own convenience." ”

Xu Wen immediately waved his hand and ordered the guards to come in to search, Xu Ji saw Xu Hao from a distance, nodded in signal, and then turned around and went out.

Tang Chu'er said: "The two elder brothers of Gongzi are frequent visitors to my Ruyi Xuan, but they have never been here since Ouyang Yuma passed away.

Li Dai'er said proudly: "I went to my painting boat last night to eat and drink until late at night, but the slave family has always been as guarded as jade, if the son is merciful, the slave is willing to serve with his body." ”

"Shameless." Tang Chu'er said angrily, and Li Dai'er immediately sneered: "You can leave if you are high, who didn't force you to stay here." ”

Xu Hao smiled, enjoying the taste of leaning on the red and green, but said in his heart that when he was proud, it might be an unlucky day.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at the guards walking around him, and said dissatisfiedly: "With chicken feathers as an arrow, could it be that this king is an assassin?" ”

Soon the guards receded like a tide, and with the commotion coming from outside, Xu Hao stood up and prepared to greet him.

Today, Zhu Yunwen was dressed in regular clothes, and he came out of the sedan chair first. Xu Hao noticed that Zhu Zhi, the king of Liao, stepped forward to salute with a respectful expression, and said in his heart that he wanted to guard against Liaodong.

Xu Hao nodded casually at Zhu Yunwen, and looked at Wu Gao, Yang Wen and Ping'an, who were about to go to Liaodong to take up their posts, all of them were in the prime of their thirties and forties, and they were all unknown middle and lower-level generals in the army in the past, and with the death of a large number of noble veterans such as Lan Yu, they stood out.

When everyone entered the hall with the imperial grandson, Zhu Yunwen said with a smile: "Today is to practice for the three generals, and there is no need to be formal." ”

Suddenly, Yang Wen raised his hand and pointed to Tang Chu'er, who was hugging Xu Hao, and said loudly: "This fan sister is good-looking, I want Lao Yang." ”

Ping An smiled at Li Dai'er and said, "This one belongs to me." ”

Zhu Gaochi's face changed slightly, obviously Yang Wen'an and the others provoked Xu Hao as soon as they came up, and they did it on purpose to show Zhu Yunwen, frowning and saying: "There is a rule of first come, first come, first come, General Yang Bingping, please order her to be elected." ”

I don't want to Huaiyin Marquis Wu Gao sneered: "What is the identity of this person in white?" The prince actually spoke for him, let's go back to Beijing after nine deaths, and we have just been praised by the saint, is it possible that Qin Huaihe is not even allowed to ask for a prostitute? ”

Zhu Gaochi was furious in his heart, so blatantly not giving him face, it means that he doesn't take the entire Yanwang Mansion in his eyes, and now that Zhu Yunwen has not ascended the throne, you dare to be disrespectful to your face when you are controlled by my father and son?

The surrounding princes, such as Zhu Jixi, Zhu Youjiao, and others, all showed gloating expressions, but no one stood up to speak for Yan Wangfu.

And the person concerned, Xu Hao, stretched out his hand to stop the angry Zhu Gaoxu, and said, "Do you two go with me to take a boat to see the scenery on both sides of the strait?" ”

Li Dai'er glanced at the indescribably expensive Zhu Yunwen, then at the heroic peace, and said in a low voice: "The slave family doesn't want to cause trouble to the son. ”

Xu Hao nodded, Tang Chu'er groaned with a complicated expression, and finally sighed: "The slave family is also left." ”

Seeing this, Zhu Yunwen said happily: "The two girls will give lonely thin noodles, and they will be rewarded afterwards!" Xu Hao, you have to go, just go. ”

Xu Hao smiled and said, "I don't want to leave, and I want the two of them to sleep tonight, what do you say, Your Highness?" Did you command me to give them both hands on women? ”

Yang Wen sneered: "Xu Hao, what are you to dare to speak to the crown prince in such a tone?" ”

Xu Hao smiled and said: "I'm sorry, now I have this Ruyi Fang, I'm not convinced, you go to Bixia Theory." ”

Zhu Yunwen said in a deep voice: "Xu Hao, don't be ignorant. ”

Xu Hao glanced at Zhu Yunwen deeply and said: "Since His Royal Highness has spoken, the grass people naturally dare not say anything, and they will not be ashamed to stay in the capital in the future, so I will say goodbye today." ”

Zhu Yunwen sneered and watched Xu Hao's gray departure, and only felt happy for a while, he had always opposed most of the national policies of his imperial grandfather, thinking that Zhu Yuanzhang was too cruel and cold-blooded, and did not sympathize with the courtiers and the people, which was not done by Ming Jun.

Zhu Yunwen is very conceited, he naively thinks that he will be better governed by him tomorrow, and now he is driving away the henchmen left by the emperor's grandfather in public, this is the first time in his life that he has openly opposed the emperor.

This move means that he has grown up to make his own decisions, and he no longer needs to live in the shadow of Zhu Yuanzhang's omnipresence.

Ping An deliberately impressed the imperial grandson, and when he saw this, he deliberately moved sideways to block the way, and looked at Xu Hao provocatively, but Xu Hao glanced at him without speaking, and walked around.

Yang Wen said disdainfully: "Sooner or later, it will be a lost dog." (To be continued......)
