Chapter 235: Don't bully you, bully anyone
Zhu Di, the king of Yan, returned to Beijing this time for official business, and in February, Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, reported that there were Hu soldiers coming and going on the border jam road, and he was afraid that there would be border troubles, so he wanted to ask for an order to lead the troops to attack. Zhu Yuanzhang was worried that the seventeenth son of the emperor, Zhu Quan, was young and risked to lose his troops, so he ordered his fourth son Zhu Di to lead elite soldiers to tour Daning and other places in the north.
Zhu Di took his second son Zhu Gaochu and set off, leaving his son Zhu Gaochi to sit in Beiping. Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Zhu Gaochi's physical condition was unable to lead the army, and ordered the fifth son of the emperor, Zhu You, the son of Zhu Hu, the king of Zhou, to lead the elite of the Henan Capital Division to patrol Beiping Saikou.
On March 7, Zhu Di went north to Checher Mountain to meet Hu soldiers, killed more than 800 enemies in an encounter, captured dozens of people such as the first general Balin Timur, and pursued them to the city of Wuliang Ha Bald, met the general of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Hara Wu, and returned to the battle, Ha Lu was defeated and fled, and Zhu Di returned with his class.
The cavalry with a considerable number of cavalry can win with a fight, and with a tired division against the defenders who are waiting for work, they can still beat the Mongols to the head, Xu Hao can be said to admire Zhu Di's bravery, looking at so many vassal kings, only Zhu Di dares to fight with the Mongolian cavalry with real swords and guns, just by virtue of this, Xu Hao knows that his choice is not wrong.
Speaking of which, Xu Hao has taken the initiative to take refuge in Zhu Di for nearly two years, in the past two years, Xu Hao has never done a thing to abandon Yan Wangfu, and he did not hide it in the capital, showing that the carriage and horse claimed to be from Yan Wangfu, and this character made Zhu Di the most satisfied.
Especially Xu Hao is one of the few people who guessed Zhu Di's ambitions, but the hot Jinyiwei in charge has never acted on Yanwangfu, but from time to time he has sent the northern Jinyiwei away from Beiping, no matter how much Zhu Yuanzhang trusts Zhu Di, but if Xu Hao uses the power in his hands to suppress Beiping, it is not difficult to become Zhu Yunwen's confidant, and he disdains the glory and wealth at his fingertips, how can this loyalty not move Zhu Di?
It is precisely because of this that Zhu Di gradually regards Xu Hao as the most trustworthy descendant, and he is a family in his own right. I undoubtedly feel a lot more intimate.
The Xu Mansion in the capital has also made it clear that Xu Yaozu, who has taken refuge in the crown prince, has been proud of the spring breeze recently, and the father and son have been rewarded hereditary.
It is said that Zhu Yunwen also intended to promote Xu Yaozu as the envoy of Jinyi Wei and replace Xu Hao, but for some reason, the emperor did not express his position on this, and let the dragons in Jinyi Wei face without a leader.
However, Xu Yaozu's future is already limitless. There was an endless stream of officials who came to make friends, but Xu Yaozu was very sober, and the officials who were inconvenient to come and go politely declined.
Wang's eyes saw that the day of his daughter's marriage was approaching, thinking of the rich dowry prepared by his family, his heart began to be unbalanced, intentionally or unintentionally released the wind to be dissatisfied with the previous dowry, Princess Lin'an was very helpless after learning about it, at this moment the eldest son Li Fang and the county lord of the Jin Dynasty married in April, and the court rewarded a hereditary hundred households of Fujian Weisu. The couple went to work together.
Princess Lin'an doesn't have much savings in her hands now, and Li Mao spent a lot of money on a big wedding, but fortunately, there were gold and silver gifts from her father and relatives, and the wedding was beautiful. The problem is that the second son is not good at getting married, and he will take the initiative to open his mouth again. Besides, weddings and funerals between the royal family are becoming more and more numerous, and there are in and out.
It just so happened that Xu Hao came to visit with Hongye and the maids, and teased Li Meng in the house, since the incident in Shuiyue Temple. It made Princess Lin'an have an illusion every time she saw Xu Hao at home, as if he was the head of the family.
Li Meng was plucked by the red leaves and painted Xu Hao with ink. Xu Hao helplessly handed over the little aunt and grandmother to take care of, let them go to the garden to play, washed their faces, took the silk scarf handed over by Musk Yue, and walked to Princess Lin'an.
Princess Lin'an blushed slightly and asked, "When will you send your sister to Beiping to get married?" β
Xu Hao, as usual, sat beside the princess without thinking, and said while wiping his face: "When the second sister and Li Fang get married, they will leave, maybe they will go with their uncle." Hey? Auntie, why are you blushing? β
"Go!" Princess Lin'an said angrily: "Knowingly asked, alas! What a sin. β
Xu Hao said funny: "What's the big deal? Do you remember that after all this time? β
Princess Lin'an felt the strange feeling of being side by side with the young man, and said with a wry smile: "I complain that Fuqing has to drag me to Shuiyue Temple, and a mistake has become a hatred for eternity." I won't hide it from you, my heart has been like water for many years, and now I can't eat and sleep. β
Xu Hao sensitively noticed that the beautiful princess who still had charm was already defenseless against herself, and even said what she thought bluntly, intentionally or unintentionally waiting for her to take the initiative. The other party is an elder, and there are a bunch of women around him, and he really can't satisfy people for a long time, and there are two in everything, once the princess breaks the vow and can't expect to come to comfort herself, sooner or later she will throw herself into the arms of other men.
Besides, the princess has two sons under her knees, and she will let it go? It seems that the rape is not a crime in the Ming Dynasty, because of its pitiful feelings, so you must consider the consequences when doing things, and don't plant the disaster of killing yourself for the sake of the lower body being refreshed for a while.
Xu Hao smiled: "What about the slut? Why didn't you come? β
Princess Lin'an said cautiously: "How do you speak?" It's hard to hear, and the next person said that she is not feeling well today. β
Xu Hao got up and stretched, and said, "When I came, I gave the account room a thousand taels of silver to add a dowry, Li Fang came to me to complain and left." β
Princess Lin'an looked at him with a complicated expression, and wanted to say that she would like to stay with me for a while, but after all, as an elder, she couldn't speak, and after a moment of hesitation, Xu Hao had already taken Musk Yue away, and suddenly sighed faintly.
Here, Xu Hao returned to the garden with Musk Yue, and hurriedly went straight to Jiangxue Zhai, Musk Yue shouted breathlessly, "Why are you in a hurry? β
Xu Hao didn't look back and said: "I finally took them all away, and now there is no one at home." β
Musk Yue said nervously, "Young Master, what are you going to do?" β
Xu Hao looked back and smiled: "I really can't help it, I want you to help me." β
Musk Yue blinked her eyes and said with a smile: "Do you want me to learn Xiangyu?" β
Xu Hao slowed down in surprise and asked, "How do you know?" β
Musk Yue twisted her head and pouted: "That night, the two of you tossed for a full hour, Xiangyu complained that his hands were sore, and I heard it clearly through the curtain when I got up at night. will bully me and Xiangyu to be honest, why don't you go to Qingwen and Sister Zhulan? β
"Do you know you're honest and still ask? If I don't bully you, who will I bully? Xu Hao sighed solemnly: "I can't help it, I always bump into people and things that make people angry these days, you help me solve it, do you want me to find outsiders?" β
Musk Moon was used in his heart. said with a smile: "Then let's say it first, I'm also the same as Xiangyu, before the girl gets married, I can't be occupied by you." β
"Cut! Cover your ears and steal the bell. β
At that moment, the two sneakily slipped back to Jiangxuezhai, thinking that no one would find out, but who knew that they were seen from afar by Zhu Qiaoqiao, who was walking nearby, and ordered: "Let's disperse, I'll go to the third courtyard to hang out." β
However, it was said that the guests of the Xu family at this moment were Zhang Fu's cousin Zhang Xin and his biological mother Jiang Shi, who entered Beijing with Zhu Di.
The Xiao family arranged for a dry maid to bring people in early, and the Jiang family is in his forties this year. Dressed in a plain white silk dress, she looks very dignified. And Zhang Xin, who was born at the age of 20, has clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, is thin, and will prepare to participate in the township examination next year.
It turned out that Zhang Xin was the only scholar in the Zhang family, and he was known as a talented man in Beiping when he was young, Zhu Di admired Zhang Xin's intention to bring him to the capital to increase his knowledge, and Zhang Xin's mother was filial to him, so he brought out the widowed mother, and Zhang Yu and his wife asked their sister-in-law to visit Xu's house on their behalf.
Xu Zhang's two families exchanged letters frequently, and they were very clear about each other's family affairs. Zhang Yu and his wife have a total of three sons and one daughter, the eldest son Zhang Fu needless to say, the daughter Zhang Lan is 14 years old this year, it is said that she will be a concubine for Zhu Di in two years, and the second son Zhang Hui and the third son Zhang Wei are younger than Xu Hao.
Zhang Jiazu was originally a scholarly family in the south. Later, Zhang Yu's family was migrated to settle in the capital of Yuan. As mentioned above, Zhang Yu served as the privy council of the former dynasty in his early years, and was in charge of military and political affairs, and when the family returned to the Ming Dynasty in the eighteenth year of Hongwu, Zhang Yu's parents were deceased. The only remaining brother died soon after, leaving behind a sister-in-law, nephew, mother and son.
Therefore, Zhang Yu loves his nephew very much, and is worried that someone will bully Zhang Xin. He thinks that he is a son, but in fact, a son is a nephew, which will have an extra layer of protection in terms of identity, and he will be raised like a biological son.
Zhang Yuwen was born resourceful but more courageous, so that his three sons all focused on learning martial arts and learning the art of war, and they will all take the road of military attachΓ©s in the future, only Zhang Xin did not like to dance with knives and guns since he was a child, and wanted to study and become a civil official.
At this moment, the Jiang family, who was surrounded by it, looked very nervous when he first entered Beijing, and the rich Zhang family was far inferior to the Xu family, and he was very worried for fear that he would make a fool of himself if he didn't pay attention, and his son Zhang Xin was led to the outer study to see Xu Qingtang.
Jiang followed the maids to Qianshoutang, and the two little girls under the corridor smiled and shouted to her, Mrs. is good, and said Wanfu and opened the bead curtain.
Passing through the ornately decorated Yinghui Hall, Jiang saw a large Nanmu body in the north of the flower hall, two red satin embroidered cushions and pillows on the couch, and a square low table of rosewood in front of him, on which sat a kind old lady.
The colorful vases of the official kiln on both sides are obliquely inserted with delicate flowers; There is a picture of a pine crane hanging on the wall, the big red group phoenix on both sides depicts the golden five-word quatrain, the ink color is thick, and a vigorous and powerful face character, the inscription is impressively from the imperial treasure of today.
Jiang's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly glanced at it without a trace, and sure enough, it was the holy Yongzhu, "The snow pressure on the branches is low, although it is not low in the mud; Once the red sun rises, it is still in harmony with the sky. β
There are sixteen small single chairs on both sides, with big red embroidered crane crepe cushions, big red embroidered crane crepe chairs, sitting four or five beautiful girls like flowers. On the east wall is a small screen of eight coral notes written by Ru Yu, a former scholar of the military department of the great talent, and on the west wall is the fine butterfly of Liu Sanwu, one of the three elders. There is also a pair of snails and seven words, I don't know who wrote it.
Lianyun: The flower curtain is red, the poetry soul is thin, and the banana pavilion is green and the crane is cool.
The ground is covered with Sanskrit Wufu Bubu Shenglian Persian carpet, on the top is the ceiling of the Cantonese Hague Balance, in the middle of the ground is a mahogany large lark table, and on the table a Zhou Dynasty bronze tripod burns benzoin.
Two ladies dressed in silk and satin stood smiling, surrounded by richly dressed women and maids.
