Daming: You are really my eldest son

Chapter 64 Are You My Brother-in-law?
When the minister of ceremonies, who was on duty at Wu Wangfu, rushed to the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang had just finished his morning court.

After considering all the things that happened in the Wu Palace this morning, Zhu Yuanzhang first scolded the ignorant woman in a low voice, then shrugged his nose and told the eunuch who was accompanying him:

"Go to Guanglu Temple to collect a hundred altars of Bozhou tribute wine and send it to Jiunei. Also, go tell Xu Xingzu and ask him to make more stewed three things and steamed shad for our eldest son."

There is no reason for Zhu Yuanzhang not to allow it.

He is very generous with his children and grandchildren.

Although Zhu Jiming said that this was to buy people's hearts, it was obvious that Zhu Yuanzhang, who had no interest in the throne, was not worried about what his eldest son would do.

Not only did he not set any restrictions, but he even took the initiative to think of Zhu Ji.The people he sent to protect Zhu Ji were all his old brothers who fought with him from Chuzhou back then, and Bozhou tribute wine was exactly what they liked.

Even the interest came up, and even the other sons followed suit.

"Go to the Wenhua Palace later and tell the prince that their brothers will be allowed to leave today and send them to Jiu Nei to join in the fun."

After giving these orders, Zhu Yuanzhang hurried to Jinshen Hall.

He just took two steps, and seemed to think of something, then stopped, and beckoned Tong Shisheren who was about to leave, and said with a serious expression:

"By the way, tell our old brothers that drinking belongs to drinking, and our elders have to take care of me. If they miss the business because of drinking, we can't spare them."

Seemingly feeling that a small passer-by is not enough to make the group of veterans obedient, Zhu Yuanzhang simply ordered the eunuchs accompanying him to make an extra trip:
"Take our seal to Li Wenzhong's residence, and let him go to Jiunei to meet our eldest son."

Unconsciously, Zhu Ji, who had a few more guests in the mansion, was sitting on a chair with his hands on his head, waiting for his brother-in-law-to-be to visit.

At this moment, Prince Wu's Mansion is very lively. I heard that there are rewards. The guards are more careful in patrolling, the servants are more diligent in cleaning, and the maids are more attentive in preparing tea and cakes.

After watching Liu Ji and Lu Ben go out, only Zhu Ji was left idle in the huge Wu Palace.

The wait is always so long, so Zhu Ji kills the time with sleep.

When he was sleepy, he could only hear someone shouting "Your Highness, Mr. Xu has arrived" outside the hall. When he suddenly woke up, the person who shouted had already arrived at the entrance of the hall.

Covering his face with both hands and rubbing vigorously, to free his mind from the aftertaste of sleep, Zhu Ji stood up energetically.

Striding out of the second yard, he saw a five-foot-tall woman in a light green fringe coat leading a little boy who was shorter than her and wearing a straight body of blue cloth.

When he got closer, he saw bright eyes on the woman's oval face, compact features, not a character, but not ugly.And that boy, although he is still young, can see a heroic spirit, at this time a pair of red phoenix eyes are staring at Zhu Ji.

This little boy must be that Xu Huizu.

Although he is still not quite sure about the girl's identity, Zhu Ji also has eight or nine points of speculation.

Walking up to Zhu Ji, Xu Huizu pulled his right hand out of the girl's hand, cupped his hand towards Zhu Ji in a similar way, and then looked at Zhu Ji and asked curiously:

"Are you my brother-in-law?"

Zhu Ji noticed that the girl who was leading Xu Huizu blushed instantly and lowered her head, not daring to look at Zhu Ji again. If Zhu Ji hadn't been in person, she might have directly covered Xu Huizu's mouth, and then went back and forth in a hurry.

Now Zhu Jike was instantly sure that this girl was definitely one of the wives he would marry in two years.

Seeing that Xu Huizu was still looking at him curiously, Zhu Ji neither admitted nor denied:
"I'm Zhu Ji, and you are Hui Zu. Duke Wei often mentions you in front of me. When I saw you today, you are really handsome. This is Miss Xu, let's stop standing, tea and snacks are ready in the back flower hall , let's eat and chat over there."

Xu Huizu expressed that he was not very satisfied with Zhu Ji's answer.

You must know that Xu Huizu has always wanted to see this brother-in-law ever since he risked being spanked to listen to Qianggen and heard that he had an extra brother-in-law.

I heard from Chang Sen that his brother-in-law often sent people to deliver food, drink, clothing and clothing to the brothers, and they were all good things from the palace.

Although the things that Chang Sen said are not lacking in Wei Guogong's mansion, but can they be the same as those given by brother-in-law?When Chang Sen said it, Xu Huizu felt a little envious, but now that he finally has a brother-in-law, he still doesn't admit it.

Wouldn't it be all in vain to wait for the food, drink, and clothing that I was looking forward to?
Some frustrated Xu Huizu didn't pay attention to his sister's strange expression, took advantage of Zhu Ji's opportunity to turn around and lead them back to the flower hall, quietly approached him, and said in a low voice with some disappointment:

"Sister, he is not my brother-in-law, shall we follow him in?"

The girl blushed even more.

How could a woman like her answer such a shameful thing.In her heart, she secretly complained to her mother who pushed her out of the door. The girl dragged Xu Huizu who wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, and warned in a low voice with some annoyance:

"Today we are here to visit the eldest prince. Don't talk about brother-in-law anymore. Let's follow him to the flower hall and leave. Don't lose your manners."

Hearing what his sister said, Xu Huizu was a lot more honest.

However, my heart is still full of regret and loss.Co-authored that I met a fake brother-in-law, you see, even my sister doesn't admit it.

But soon the loss in Xu Huizu's heart was completely washed away by the dazzling array of food.

For Xu Huizu's visit, the director of Guanglu Temple, who was in charge of food and beverage purchases for the Wu Palace, also put in great effort.

In addition to all kinds of candied fruit that entered the palace from all over the country, the servants of the food hall were also ordered to make many kinds of pastries. A table with a radius of three and a half feet was packed to the brim, and the attractive colors caught Xu Huizu's attention in an instant. attracted to the past.

Even Zhu Ji himself was taken aback by this grand scene.

This landlord's family is not so rich during the Chinese New Year, and with such a big show, can't they make it through?If this spreads to the old man's ears, what if he feels upset and cuts off the supply of Prince Wu's mansion, so that he can make himself self-reliant in the future?
Unaware that a large number of foodies are on the way, Zhu Ji feels his heart is bleeding, but he still has to maintain his friendly smile on his face.

Well, in front of the future daughter-in-law and brother-in-law, you can't act too shabby.

"Eat whatever you like. Uncle Xu and I are as close as a master and a disciple. You can feel free. Here, try this five-spice cake. I heard that this thing is specially made by Guanglu Temple. It's rare to see it outside. "
