Chapter 218: Newlywed Yaner
After talking for a while, Zhu Di said, "I asked you two to come, I have something to explain."
When he heard that his father had something to explain, Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaoxu both cheered up and looked at the scrutiny of listening.
Zhu Di narrowed his eyes and said, "You two emperors have no brotherhood. They are bold and powerful, and are ignorant. They are hateful. I have issued an order to abolish them as commoners and ban them in Zhongdu. But..."
Zhu Di paused, sighed, and continued, "It's just that I don't want to be gossiped about it. I started my family in Jingnan and raised it as the banner of the royal family. King Ning and King Gu still made contributions. So what I mean is that although King Ning was guilty, his son did not participate and ordered him to be King Shanggao. Zhu Fuzhuo, the son of King Gu, ordered King Xun to be the vassal of Shanggao and the other to be the vassal of Xunzhou. However, the guards must be reduced by half and given the treatment of the prince. However, someone in the court must look at them. If they have any evil deeds, they will immediately order someone to impeach the prince...."
Zhu Gaochi hurriedly said, "My son is here."
Zhu Di said: "If you choose the candidates of the Chief Secretary, you must choose loyal and upright people, and don't let others take advantage of their loopholes."
Zhu Gaochi hurriedly said, "I obey the order."
Zhu Di narrowed his eyes and said, "After this incident comes out, the world will definitely be talking about it. Although it is not enough to shake the foundation of the country, it is inevitable that someone wants to take the opportunity to cause trouble. I am not worried about anything else now. Beiping is as stable as a rock. I have me in charge in Jiangnan and Mu family in the southwest. However, Lingnan is not far from Annan, and there are often barbarians in the local area rebelling. I have heard some gossip, saying that there are ill-behaved people in Lingnan. It seems that there are ill-behaved attempts, and there are many mountains there. There are many barbarians and are surrounded by the sea. It has never been a peaceful place. So I thought about it over and over again, hoping that someone would keep a town. Originally..." Zhu
Di glanced at Zhu Gaoxu and said, "I was originally counting on Gaoxu to go. Gaoxu didn't want to go to Yunnan, so I could go to Lingnan and just go to Lingnan. As a prince, I should have put down the vassals. I share my worries for my father, but it is a troublesome time now, and it may be useful to keep you in the capital. The third brother wrote many letters in Qingzhou, saying that Qingzhou was meaningless, and he was also unable to sit still, so I thought, so I simply signed him to Lingnan. Naturally, Lingnan is not as good as Qingzhou, but now there are many troubles. The four of us father and son should do our best to overcome difficulties together. The third brother was skilled in bowing and horses, and he also brought troops there. I don't worry."
In fact, at the beginning, when Zhu Gaoxu was conferred to Yunnan, there was actually a meaning of a prince guarding the country. After all, Zhu Gaoxu was indeed a general, but unfortunately Zhu Gaoxu was not here. He repeatedly made excuses and refused to submit. Zhu Di gave up. But now after thinking about it, only King Zhao could use it now. The tragic King Zhao was far away in Qingzhou and had to cry. It seemed that the distance from Qingzhou to Nanjing was not much different from the distance from Lingnan to Nanjing. In fact, the difference was really not small. Qingzhou to Nanjing was a smooth road, with official roads along the way, and it was 600 miles a day and a night. It took a few days to ride a horse across the river to reach. However, Lingnan was mostly mountain roads from Nanjing, and it seemed that water was crisscrossing, but unfortunately they were all tributaries. They might not be able to reach it without a month. This alone shows where Lingnan is.
When Zhu Gaoxu heard that King Zhao was going to Lingnan, he couldn't help but frown, but he was not inconvenient to say anything. However, the prince seemed to be indifferent to this matter. He just wondered why Zhu Di had this idea. Look at this, Zhu Di seemed to be planning something.
"I have issued an order to ask King Zhao to return to Beijing before the New Year, and to have another order to rush to Lingnan after the New Year. You three brothers have not been together for a long time. When he comes back, he will be close to you."
Zhu Di stood up and continued, "You brothers should not learn from King Ning and King Gu. Brothers are united and they will be able to cut off gold. If everyone has selfish thoughts, they will be like King Ning and King Gu and others. If their own brothers are in such a state of trouble, they will only give those who are interested to take advantage of it."
Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly said, "My father's teachings are not dared to forget them."
Zhu Di's eyes flashed, he glanced at Zhu Gaochi and said, "Chi'er, I heard that you and Hao Fenglou are not in the way?"
Zhu Gaochi hurriedly said, "The father is so serious. This is all rumor. Hao Qianhu and his sons have nothing to do with each other. If there is any gap, it is really a joke." He answered while being suspicious. Why did the father suddenly tell him this?
Zhu Di smiled and said, "If this is the case, it would be great. Your mother attaches great importance to him. She mentioned something just now. She wanted to adopt Hao Fenglou as her adopted son. In this way, you are also brothers. You are the elder brother. Sometimes you should tolerate him. He has the ability and is usually quite loyal. Sometimes he always likes to be fooled and say something that others don't like, but after all, you are older, so you don't have to worry about it."
Upon hearing this news, Zhu Gaochi lost his composure.
What is this situation? Why did you suddenly become an adopted son?
He looked at his mother and saw that his mother was smiling and almost shuddered. He didn't know the whole story at all. He didn't dare to say anything rashly now, but the news was too shocking. Zhu Gaochi knew in his heart that Hao Fenglou was a fly. When he thought of having to deal with him well in the future, Zhu Gaochi felt goosebumps all over his body.
However, Zhu Gaoxu was quite happy to see that he was successful except for the accident. Although he could not win over Hao Fenglou, Hao Fenglou and his royal brother were not in the way, so he could attack the royal brother.
Zhu Di didn't say anything more, just said, "Come on, you guys go back. It's time for me to move to the warmhouse to meet my ministers."

After getting up overnight, Lu Yan has become a bride, and her life has changed suddenly and is a little difficult to adapt. She is already shy and is even more careful. Early in the morning, Hao Fenglou was still sleeping soundly, and Lu Yan has already gotten up and called Hao Fenglou, asking Hao Fenglou to follow her to see her in-laws.
Seeing Lu Yan's cautious appearance, Hao Fenglou guessed that Lu Yan was nervous, probably because he was afraid of showing a slight negligence in front of Hao's father and mother, and his mind was too sensitive.
However, Hao Fenglou was also considerate. He quickly got up, washed up and took Lu Yan to meet Hao's mother. Hao's mother smiled happily, took Lu Yanjing's tea and said, "Yesterday, Empress Xu gave her a few pieces of jewelry. Yan'er, you can also pick a few pieces. After all, the imperial gifts in the palace will be more decent."
Lu Yan bowed down and sat down. After thanking him, he said in a panic: "When I went out yesterday, my mother said that my mother-in-law valued me very much and treated me like my biological daughter. I taught me to serve the two elders well and not to be arrogant because of my favor."
This made Hao Fenglou, who was sitting aside, guessed that it was Mrs. Lu who taught her, so damn it was like a mother-in-law.
Hao's mother smiled and said, "It's natural for girls to spoil."
The two chatted together, and Hao Fenglou felt it was boring, so he naturally took his leave.
It was noon and the whole family had dinner. Hao Fenglou picked up vegetables for Lu Yan'er. Lu Yan'er felt a little embarrassed and hurriedly picked up vegetables for Hao Zheng and Hao's mother.
Hao's mother smiled again: "Look at the tutor of the Lu family."
Hao Fenglou burst into tears, but this time he scolded himself and his father. Fortunately, he was thick-skinned and disregarded, and said, "Mother, the tutor of our Hao family is actually quite good. For example, our grandfather, I heard from my father that his grandfather is a world-famous moral gentleman. He often doesn't pick up any leavers, helps the old lady walk, and will give it to Yingtian Mansion if he picks up other people's money. He is very kind and good at studying. My father is very solemn. When he comes to me, he has been taught by his father, which is even more amazing. A few days ago, I found that Xiao Xiangxiang forgot to tie the door when taking a shower, and even specifically reminded her to tie the door..."
Hao Zheng's face suddenly became wonderful, and he wanted to scold him. He could only blew his beard and stare at him, almost causing internal injuries when he got angry.
Lu Yan said curiously: "Why doesn't Xiao Xiangxiang close the door when taking a bath?"
Hao Fenglou said: "It's not that you don't close the door, it's that you don't lock the door. The difference is a thousand miles apart. Don't mistakenly think that it's her intentionally not closing the door, which is the reputation of a bad girl."
Lu Yan said: "Why do you know if she doesn't lock the door?"
"I happened to pass by this, I heard it..." Hao Fenglou felt that his brain capacity was not enough. He was afraid that the more he explained, the more he finally explained, he became darker and darker, so he had to say, "I'm hungry, I'll have a meal first."
Hao's mother glared at Hao Fenglou viciously and quickly said to Lu Yan: "Your mother will be invited to the mansion in a few days. She herself said she was doing nothing and would avoid boredom when she walked around more."
Hao Fenglou was afraid that Lu Yan would be lonely, so he accompanied her for a day. The joy of the boudoir was not enough for outsiders to tell her. However, the next day, Hao Fenglou still wanted to rely on her, but then someone came to the palace to invite the Hao family and his son to meet him.
As soon as he heard the summons in the palace, Hao Zheng cheered up and ordered Hao Fenglou to take a shower and change his clothes. He changed into new court clothes. The father and son rode a horse and a sedan chair and rushed to the Meridian Gate. After crossing the Wulong Bridge, the eunuch led him to the direction of the warm room. As a result, he arrived outside the warm room. The eunuch said, "Your Majesty invites the Marquis of Luzhou to come in first."
Hao Fenglou couldn't help but complain: "Why aren't it together? Could it be that there is still a sequence of things?"
However, this kind of complaint was meaningless. Hao Zheng glared at him and dusted the dust on his body. He had already stepped into the pavilion. Hao Fenglou had to wait outside.
