The fragrant mist in the brocade tent was full of mist, and Mrs. Mu patiently waited for the maids' answers, and the Xu Qinglian sisters who were sitting on the side were very nervous, for fear that Qingwen would tell the truth without words, and it would be bad.

Who knew that those who were close to Zhu were red and those who were close to ink were black, and the Zhulan, who was deeply influenced by Xu Hao, looked at each other and smiled unhurriedly.

Zhulan was the most detached, and said first: "Mrs. Hui, the slave maid does not have that luxury, just want to stay by the young master's side for a few more years, and then the slave and maid's family affairs will have their own young master in charge." ”

Qingwen said with a smile: "The slave maid has made up her mind not to marry in the future, and the young master promised to let me run a shop with Musk Yue in the future, with my own efforts, I can also earn enough family wealth, and the young master will take care of it, so I don't have to worry about my relatives snatching the family property, and I will enjoy the rest of my life leisurely. ”

Musk Yue nodded shyly, looking forward to the future. And Xiangyu raised her head, her eyes were clear and penetrating, and she said slowly: "The young master encourages the slave and maid to worship the famous doctor as a teacher in the future, and after learning a medical body, he will walk the world to help the world and treat the poor people, and the slave and maid will not disappoint the young master, if the young master needs the slave and maid, even if he is far away from thousands of mountains and rivers, he will definitely come as scheduled." ”

Mrs. Mu was deeply moved when she heard this, and even the Xu Qinglian sisters looked at the four maids in disbelief, no one could have imagined that they all had clear plans for the future.

Mrs. Mu was speechless, and secretly said Xu Hao, Xu Hao, the truth is getting more and more impenetrable to you, dare to do such a deviant thing? can be called bold, and being able to train these girls out, it can be seen that you are by no means an ordinary person, if you don't die because of this in the future, maybe your achievements will not be under the old man of Wei Guo.

Jiangpu County.

Xu Hao sneezed a few times in a row for no reason, and rushed up with the guards without asking, Mu Ang rushed to the front alone, it was a scuffle, and it was a coincidence, the other party turned out to be an acquaintance.

The man on the horse frowned and scolded: "Aren't you the third child of the Mu family?" Bastard, take a closer look, who am I? ”

Mu Ang shouted: "I don't care who you are, beat you to death, huh?" I've seen Uncle Pony. ”

Seeing this, Xu Hao and Zhu Gaochu also stopped, Zhu Gaochu secretly screamed in his heart, raised his head and smiled: "It turned out to be Uncle Wang, since they are all from their own family, then forget it this time." ”

Xu Hao also recognized that he was mixed in the royal circle, and almost all the concubines had met a few times. This handsome middle-aged man is named Wang Ning, and he is still the sixth daughter of the emperor, Princess Huaiqing, it is said that Princess Huaiqing's biological mother is an ordinary palace maid, who died due to dystocia, and was raised by Sun Guifei since childhood.

Wang Ning is now the official after the official worship of the governor's mansion, named the Marquis of Yongchun, this person is good at communication, and Zhu Di has a good relationship, often come to Yanwangfu to visit Zhu Gaochi brothers. During Zhu Yuanzhang's birthday banquet or family banquet, Mu Ang met each other several times when he entered the palace with his mother and sister.

As an elder, Wang Ning said unceremoniously: "Aren't you Xu Hao of the Wei State Prince's family?" You guys are just fooling around, and you dare to beat pedestrians in broad daylight for no reason? Aren't you afraid that the Holy One will punish you when he learns about it? ”

Xu Hao was stunned, and secretly said how did he know his name? It seems that I have never been introduced, but every time it is far away.

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu said with a hippie smile: "Shicai is just joking, my uncle is here to visit my aunt?" ”

Wang Lun also knew that Zhu Gaoxu was frivolous, and he hurt people at every turn, which was disliked by the saints, frowning and being supported by his subordinates to dismount, and said in a serious tone: "You have to restrain yourself, how can you get it in the long run?" The prince will also be banned by the Zongren Mansion if he breaks the law, do you really think that no one can cure you? And the two of you, you don't study well at a young age, I won't worry about you this time, if there is a next time, I will not spare it. ”

Xu Hao smiled bitterly and nodded to admit his mistake, but he didn't expect to be a bad young man once, and he happened to hit the iron plate, and this reprimand was really wronged.

Xu Hao hurriedly said: "Junior, remember, Lord Wang is also here to visit Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, right?" The younger generation was also instructed by His Royal Highness King Yan to come to visit, so he brought the two of them with him. ”

"Well, I was entrusted by my insiders to come and see the imperial sister."

After Wang Lun finished speaking, he looked at Xu Hao deeply, and said in his heart that these three children were mainly Xu Hao, who had the lowest status, and could make the famous lawless Zhu Gaoxu and the famous and stubborn Mu Ang obedient, this son was really not simple.

Mu Ang didn't listen to the advice of his elders at all, nodded with a smile, pulled Zhu Gaoxu and asked, "How is it?" I can go to Peking with you, right? ”

Zhu Gaoxu smiled strangely: "Okay, this time I will take you with me." Mu Ang was immediately overjoyed, and immediately became distressed again, "My mother will definitely not agree, what should I do?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu pouted at Xu Hao, who was walking towards the mansion with Wang Ning, and said with a smile: "Let your brother-in-law invite your sister to accompany you, won't you be able to go together?" ”

Mu Ang shook his head and said, "My sister won't go out with her brother-in-law without a name or a point." But when I went to beg my brother-in-law, my mother told me to spend more time with my brother-in-law, and when my brother-in-law went to the north to see it, he might agree. ”

"As long as you come when you come, I will take you in." Zhu Gaoxu didn't care much about the newly recruited little follower, and walked forward with his feet raised.

Everyone entered the princess's mansion together, Wang Ning suddenly turned around and took Zhu Gaoxu's hand, asked him about his current situation with a kind expression, and took the trouble to follow the teachings.

Xu Hao paid attention to Wang Ning's every move, he always felt that Wang Ning took special care of Zhu Gaochu, and his attitude towards Zhu Gaochi seemed lukewarm in comparison, it seemed that he felt that Zhu Gaochi did not please King Yan, and his status as a prince would be lost sooner or later.

Zhu Di, regardless of his talent and military exploits, or his status in the eyes of Zhu Yuanzhang, far surpasses all the vassal kings, and is most trusted and relied on by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Therefore, in addition to going to Beijing from time to time, Zhu Di is to make friends with any useful people in the capital, of course, mainly the royal family and relatives, so that the emperor will not be suspicious, these people can get close to Zhu Yuanzhang and often mention his existence in passing.

If you don't take such painstaking measures, even if you have a relationship with the emperor and the father and son, you will turn your face when you say it. Although Zhu Yuanzhang cares about family affection the most, he is not merciful to his son who has made repeated mistakes, just like the founding emperors of previous dynasties, he is not merciful in giving death and forbidding anything.

Now, with the important ministers of the court and the military generals being killed one by one, it is becoming more and more prominent that Zhu Di and other powerful princes are in power, Zhu Yuanzhang relies on his sons to control the generals in the border towns, and relies on Wenchen and concubines internally, and regards Zhu Di and other sons as the Great Wall externally. But I didn't know that the most beloved grandson Zhu Yunwen had already begun to regard his uncles as a thorn in his side.

Although Zhu Di has the ambition to inherit the throne, he must not dare to have any intention of rebellion at this time, after all, with a mere corner of Beiping, how dare he confront his nephew who owns the whole world? Xu Hao couldn't guess why Zhu Yunwen would rush to cut the feudal domain as soon as he came to power, if he waited for the throne to sit on the throne, he would take the method of boiling frogs in warm water, and it would not be difficult to trap Zhu Di in the north for a long time.

After a long time, sit on the throne, everything is ready, and a piece of edict can invite Zhu Di's family to the capital without blood, and then give him gold and silver, and choose a fief for him to live in for a long time.

Looking at the entire Battle of Jingyan, except for Zhu Di, who is indeed eloquent and proficient in the art of war, the rest of the kings are almost all mediocre, and there is no need to worry about the kings daring to rebel, can't Zhu Yunwen see it?

It seems that Zhu Yunwen is still too young and anxious, Xiucai rebelled for three years, and several literati tied up a piece of thought they were reading all the history books, in order to prevent the recurrence of the Eight Kings Rebellion of the Han Dynasty, they rushed to cut the domain, but they didn't expect to really single-handedly cause the Battle of Jingjing.

Without asking right and wrong, he forced his uncle to death and imprisoned a large number of royal families, and many royal families were directly demoted to commoners, can it not make the officials and people of the world feel cold? At this time when the people of Chu'an in the world are determined, because of Zhu Yuanzhang's teachings and supervision, most of the kings' performances are commendable, and there are no bad deeds, so who would think that this move is for the sake of the country? In the eyes of the common people, it was just to consolidate the imperial power and exclude dissidents, not to mention that Emperor Taizu's bones were not cold at that time.

Xu Hao was quietly listening to Wang Ning and Princess Lin'an, who was dressed like an ordinary woman, talking about his own affairs.

Thinking of the dead Lan Yu, Xu Hao couldn't figure it out even more, the biggest beneficiary of Lan Yu's death was actually not Zhu Di but Zhu Yunwen. Don't look at Zhu Yunwen calling Lan Yu uncle, as mentioned earlier, Zhu Yunwen's biological mother is the step-family of the crown prince Zhu Biao, and the third brother below him is the grandson, but Lan Yu's nephew, one of the reasons why Lan Yu was killed was that he had expressed dissatisfaction with Zhu Yuanzhang's canonization of the eldest grandson instead of the eldest grandson.

Xu Hao finally suddenly realized, it turned out that maybe it was because of his identity, so that Zhu Yunwen couldn't sleep well for this, according to the principle of establishing a long and not a successor, aren't the uncles above more qualified to inherit the throne than him?

No wonder, a literati like Zhu Yunwen cares most about a name and righteousness, if he doesn't get rid of all the kings, he's afraid he doesn't think he can't be called orthodox, right?

At this time, Princess Lin'an said softly to him: "Thank you for coming to visit me, you are not an outsider, I will call you a nephew." In the future, when I have nothing to do, I will come and have a look, and then I will cook some side dishes myself. ”

Xu Hao heard the song and knew the elegance, and quickly stood up and said, "My nephew remembers, and I will visit my elders at that time in the future." ”

Wang Ning was very satisfied with Xu Hao's cleverness, and said with a smile: "It's best to come over in a few days and tell some interesting stories to the imperial sister." ”

"Yes." Xu Hao assured.

After leaving a bunch of gifts like this, Wang Ning took Xu Hao and them to say goodbye to Princess Lin'an, went out of the princess's mansion together, and returned the same way.

On the way, Wang Ning secretly instructed: "The imperial sister has a few difficult things, and it is inconvenient for me to come forward due to my identity, and you, as a guard of the Great Inner and a subordinate of the Yan Palace, can be regarded as a person from half of the Zongren Mansion, and it is best to have you in the forefront." ”

Xu Haoxin said that if you don't bring such a tricky person, what is a person from half of the Zongren Mansion? I'm not stupid. However, since he has already agreed to this matter, Xu Hao is not ready to cheat, there is a debtor and a master, and a straightforward report to Zhu Yuanzhang will be over, how can he solve it in private?

Oh! Xu Hao understands that he has come, he still has to be used as a gunman, this princess Lin'an has difficulties, Wang Ning, as a concubine, is inconvenient to tell his father-in-law, through the mouth of his insignificant little person, it is undoubtedly the safest to tell Zhu Yuanzhang.

At the moment, Xu Hao was speechless and agreed, calculating that he would enter the palace on an errand the day after tomorrow, and now he was carrying an embroidered spring knife in the palace and circling around the field in front of the Qianqing Palace.

When Zhu Yuanzhang was farming, he liked to ask about anything that had happened in the capital recently, and he had to ask about everything clearly, so that the avant-garde of the government army and the guards were as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they wandered around the capital when they had nothing to do, asking everywhere about the hidden gossip rumors that they had and did not, in order to get the favor of the emperor.

Staring at the back of Wang Ning's departure, Xu Hao scolded the old treacherous and cunning, this matter is definitely Princess Huaiqing asking her husband to help her eldest sister, Wang Ning has a lot of flowers, so she wrote a letter to tell him to do things, and then Wang Ning happened to meet him in front of the eldest princess's mansion, and he took a fancy to his current identity as a royal guard.

It's tiring to deal with these guys who like to play with calculating people! I was accidentally taken advantage of. Xu Hao sighed and looked at Zhu Gaoxu, who was being used by him, and his heart was slightly balanced.
