I want to be a grandson

Chapter 610 A Pair of Enemies...

In the lobby of Yanshan Zhongwei Qianhu Office, Qiu Fu was lying on the bench, and a soldier came over with water and fire sticks, obviously intending to hit him with army sticks.

Just as he raised his stick and was about to strike down, he suddenly heard a voice saying: "General, long time no see, don't come here!"

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Di, King of Yan, was seen wearing a leather armor, stepping into the lobby of the Thousand Households Office. He didn't seem to see anything around him, and his eyes were fixed on Sapphire who was sitting at the top.

"The last general pays homage to His Royal Highness King Yan!" The general in the lobby clasped his fists and saluted Zhu Di.

Sapphire stroked her beard, stood up slowly, as if she was strolling in her own courtyard, and said calmly, "It turns out that it was His Royal Highness King Yan who was in front of you, so I'm being rude..."

With a smile on Zhu Di's face, he said, "The general is too polite, how dare Xiao Wang accept the gift of the general."

Sapphire nodded slightly, not agreeing, taking it for granted, glanced at Zhu Di and said, "This general is dealing with military affairs. If His Royal Highness King Yan is free, why not sit down and listen?"

Zhu Di glanced at Qiu Fu who was standing aside with his armor stripped off and only in his coat, and said with a smile, "It is also a blessing to have the honor to see how the general manages the army. Since this king has met him, he must be I want to ask a question or two!"

"Come here, bring a chair for His Royal Highness King Yan!"

As soon as the words fell, Lan Yu sat down, and it was still the main seat he had just made.

The soldiers in the hall looked at Lan Yu and then at Zhu Di, feeling a little overwhelmed, hesitating and not knowing what to do.

After all, according to his status, Zhu Di is the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty, with a noble status, and the general, even if he has a high status, is still a courtier.

It stands to reason that His Royal Highness King Yan should sit down, but... Seeing Lan Yu who was calmly sitting on the chair, everyone dared not say anything.

"Why, don't you have any chairs in the Qianhu Office?"

Seeing that the people below did not move for a long time, Sapphire scolded with a grim expression.

Only then did the people at the bottom come to their senses, quickly moved a chair from the side and placed it at the bottom, and stepped back in embarrassment, not daring to ask Zhu Di to sit down.

The two of Zhu Di and the others never got along with each other, and they didn't have conflicts once or twice. They knew that this was Sapphire's blow to him. Although they couldn't do anything to themselves, they still made people unhappy!

Sapphire is used to being domineering. Although she has restrained herself in the past few years, this impression has long remained in everyone's impressions, so he snatched his own position. It is nothing at all to do such a thing, and no one else will. will feel strange.

On the contrary, if it is me, if I compete with the great general of the dynasty because of a seat issue, it will seem petty...

This is like a successful person who has read poetry and books and is polite, scolding a shrew in the street. Even if the shrew is at fault, the behavior of scolding will undoubtedly lower his status...

This is the legendary I am a hooligan who am I afraid of!

So Zhu Di could only hold back his tone, opened his hem, held his sword in his hand, and sat down slowly, but with a bit of mighty momentum.

"General, look at this posture, is it about to hit the military stick?" Zhu Di asked.

"That's right, is His Royal Highness King Yan going to intercede for him? Don't worry! As long as His Royal Highness Yan speaks, I will give you some kind of favor no matter what..." Sapphire said with a smile on her face.

Zhu Di was choked again!Begging for mercy is the same as begging for Lanyu, even if he really wanted to ask Lanyu to forgive him, he would never say this!
"I heard that the general is strict in running the army. He always puts military law first. He never cheats for personal gain. He never looks at people's face. I didn't expect to see you today..."

Zhu Di made a look of sudden realization and some distress, he paused for a while and said: "But everything has its own rules, the general's will is taken by the king..."

"Yanshan Zhongwei Qianhu Qiufu was under the control of this king for a period of time. I just want to ask, what did he do that deserves such a big fight by the general?"

Regarding Zhu Di's tit-for-tat and insinuating words about herself, Lan Yu didn't take it to heart, and raised her finger to point at her entourage.

The entourage took a step forward, saluted and said: "Report to His Highness King Yan, Qiu Fu, a thousand households in Yanshan, secretly hid wine among the battalion commanders. According to military regulations, they should be beaten with [-] sticks!"

Hearing this, the corners of Zhu Di's mouth twitched involuntarily!
Hidden wine?What a shame!

If it was another crime, Zhu Di might try to find a way to pay back one or two, and find a reason to prevaricate it. After all, Qiu Fu is his man, and he must protect it!

But it turned out to be because he hid wine privately, which is equivalent to saying that he drank secretly in the barracks!

Qiu Fu immediately lowered his head, not daring to look into Zhu Di's eyes, feeling embarrassed and ashamed, really ashamed!

It is not absolutely forbidden to drink in the barracks. When marching and fighting, especially in cold weather, you will also bring some wine to drink to warm your body and resist the cold.

Or when the two armies are fighting, in order to boost morale, to stimulate strength, so that the soldiers are fearless, they will also use wine to strengthen their courage and relieve pain.

Or when the Beijing camp celebrates the victory, they will also drink some wine, but they can't drink casually, so as not to be unrestrained.

So when Zhu Di heard about this charge, he really had nothing to say, even though beating Qiu Fu would mean losing his own face, but he couldn't say anything!
"His Royal Highness, I heard that this Qianhu respects you very much, and this general is also very troubled. You said that you secretly drank alcohol in the barracks, should you be punished?" Sapphire asked.

"The general misunderstood..."

Zhu Di said calmly: "He is a thousand household in the imperial court, and he has fought with the king, so he just knows him. As for respect... the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty should respect the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty, right?"

At the end of the conversation, he stared at Sapphire with scorching eyes, as if to say that he lacked respect for himself.

Lan Yu tidied up her armor and said, "Soldiers are His Majesty's subjects, and vassal kings are also His Majesty's subjects. Although their identities are different and their responsibilities are different, it can be said that they are all Your Majesty's subjects.

Since we are ministers, we need to abide by our duties and keep our position, otherwise if we break the rules, we should be punished!Your Highness King Yan, don't you think so? "

"The general said well, this king has been taught!"

"Come on, enforce the military regulations!"

"Boom, boom, boom..., boom, boom, boom..."

Qiu Fu lay on the long bench, and the stick fell down one after another, making a dull sound. Qiu Fu gritted his teeth and did not utter a wail.

It was very painful to be hit by the stick, and the people who enforced the military regulations did not release water, nor did they intentionally hit hard, so that people could not find any faults.

Lan Yu picked up the teacup and drank it slowly, not paying attention to what happened in the hall, only occasionally drifting her eyes to King Yan,
Although Zhu Di maintained the demeanor of a vassal king and showed no expression, Lan Yu could still feel the anger in his heart.

"Report to the general, the execution of the forty army sticks has been completed!"

Sapphire waved them to step aside, looked at Qiu Fu who was supported by someone, his butt was covered in blood,

He said solemnly: "Qiu Fu, you are also a warrior on the battlefield. I know everything about you. You must charge forward in every battle. You are not afraid of death. You are a warrior. You have made great contributions on the battlefield. Hundreds of small pieces,
Relying on military merits, he was promoted to the position of a thousand households, but you have to know that military regulations are military regulations!No one offends it! "

"As the head of a thousand households in Yanshan, but took the lead in drinking heavily, you will not accept these forty army sticks!"

Now Qiu Fu felt that his whole body was falling apart, not only his butt was in pain, but his whole body was in pain, his clothes had already been soaked in sweat, sticking to his body made the wound even more painful, like rubbing a handful of salt into it !

At this moment, suppressing the pain, supporting his weak body, he clasped his fists in salute and said, "Stealing alcohol and drinking violates military regulations, you should be beaten! The last general will obey!"

"Well, take him down to heal!"

Qiu Fu was taken down, and Lan Yu turned to Zhu Di and asked, "His Royal Highness, do you think it is appropriate to deal with this?"

After everyone has finished beating you come to ask me? !

I said it's not appropriate, you can still take back the army stick!
"Sure, very good!"

At that moment, Zhu Di didn't know what tone he used to say this, whether he had gritted his teeth,

This is the person who beat him, and made him say "OK"!

This is too bullying!
"You all go down, I'm going to catch up with His Royal Highness King Yan, so don't be an eyesore."

After driving everyone else out, only two people remained in the lobby.

Lan Yu found a comfortable position and sat on the chair, and said with a smile: "A few days ago when I was in Shanxi, I received a letter from Your Majesty, the Empress Empress gave birth to a prince for Your Majesty. Loud and strong,

His Majesty has an heir, and the government and the people are at ease. It is really a gratifying thing to congratulate the Ming Dynasty. By the way, His Royal Highness King Yan knows it? "

Can I not know what you know? !

I really want to scare people by seizing the opportunity!
"Your Majesty has an heir. As a prince of the royal family, this king naturally knew about such an important matter earlier than others."

Zhu Di said: "This king was also very happy when he got the news, and specially sent a congratulatory form to His Majesty, congratulating His Majesty and the Empress."

Sapphire hehehe smiled and didn't say anything, but she was obviously very happy.

It's just that this kind of laughter seemed harsh to Zhu Di, making him feel uncomfortable.

When the prince Zhu Biao was still alive, Lan Yu had repeatedly reminded Zhu Biao to guard against Zhu Di, the king of Yan, because he noticed that Zhu Di coveted the throne and spied on Dabao's heart.

On the surface, Zhu Biao definitely didn’t believe it, but it’s hard to say whether he believed it or not in his heart. Zhu Di also knew about Lan Yu’s complaint against him.
Although Zhu Di was not punished for this, he was seen through and exposed, so the discord between the two was not only due to their personality, but also due to this.

Having said that, which son of the emperor does not want to be on the throne?Who doesn't want to be emperor?It's just that some of them were born too late, and they were not the first sons, so they couldn't be ranked, so they just lost their hearts.

But he is also one of the emperor's several sons, and he is outstanding, outstanding, and very talented, even surpassing his elder brother... Then it is impossible for him not to desire the throne!

But to be spoken out by others is not a glorious thing after all!
Zhu Di knew that Lan Yu was using the fact that the emperor had an heir, satirized himself, and made himself lose his heart, but he couldn't justify himself, so he could only hold back his tone.

You can't take the initiative to say that you don't covet the throne, can you?

"His Royal Highness Yan, this general came here this time, in addition to inspecting the editorial affairs and rectifying the sergeants, he also has the responsibility of deploying against the enemy."

Lan Yu said: "Winter is coming in a few days. I heard that there has been a snowfall in the north. At this time, the Wala Tatars are short of pasture and food. It is the time when they are harassing and looting.
The soldiers of my Ming Dynasty must be ready, take precautions, protect the people, and prevent these thieves from taking advantage of them. "

When it came to business, Zhu Di also became serious. Although he did not deal with Lan Yu, he would not joke about the lives of soldiers and common people.

So he said: "Since the general is here, this year's defense must be perfect. If you need anything, just ask the general, and I will try my best to help."

"By the way, tomorrow I will hold a banquet in Yan Wang's mansion to clean up the dust for the general, and invite the soldiers from Beiping to meet the general, so as to prevent the general from running away one by one from the guards. You see? it is good?"

Lan Yu said: "Thank you for your good intentions, I will save you the trouble of picking up the wind and washing away the dust. I also want to go around and see how the troops are equipped, so that I can be handy when facing the enemy.
I will be in Peiping for a while, and we will have a long time together, so don't be in a hurry..."

Zhu Di nodded and said nothing.

He has no personal relationship with Sapphire, and since he thinks Sapphire is the smelly and hard stone in the latrine, no matter how hard he tries and how he treats him well, he will never be kind to him and feel grateful in his heart
Since everything you do is useless, and even attracts sarcasm, why bother!
Therefore, I didn't bother to be polite with him, so I didn't mention the matter of meeting the wind anymore.

……

"Your Highness, Your Highness..., hiss!"

On the bed, Qiu Fu lay on his stomach after applying the medicine, not daring to move, for fear of causing pain by pulling his injured buttocks.

Seeing Zhu Di walking in, Qiu Fu was beaten with a military stick for secretly drinking, he couldn't help but blushed, wanted to get up and salute but then led him to get along, he couldn't help but let out a cry of pain.

"Okay, just lie on your stomach and don't get up."

Zhu Di walked up to him and saw that his lower body was covered with a quilt, so he wanted to take a look, but he stopped in mid-air and asked, "Have you applied the wound medicine?"

"Paint, paint..."

Qiu Fu was full of embarrassment, and blamed himself: "This subordinate... this subordinate's behavior is shameless, which caused His Highness to lose face in front of the general. This subordinate really, really has no place to be ashamed... and embarrassed His Highness..."

Zhu Di glared at him, and said angrily: "The barracks hides alcohol privately, and you don't know how to change your alcoholism! When you are fighting, you drink a little wine and rush forward without thinking about your head. Now you are the general!
It's good now, you dare to drink it in the barracks!Do you really think that Qianhusuo is your home?You can do whatever you want, without any scruples! "
