Gao Chi of the Ming River

After entering the Xu Mansion, Zhu Gaochi looked at the patrolling personnel in the Xu Mansion, and looked at Xu Zengshou with a smile, "Second Uncle, is this also the arrangement of His Highness the Emperor Taisun?"

Xu Zengshou hurriedly responded respectfully, "If you return to the son, the grandson of the emperor is worried about the safety of the son, so he sent more people over..."

"Oh..." Zhu Gaochi expressed gratitude, "Your Highness is so caring!"

Seeing the gratitude on Zhu Gaochi's face, Xu Zengshou couldn't help but smile in his heart, the son is really getting more and more stable.

Then Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui who were behind looked at the soldiers on patrol, with a trace of indignation and disdain flashing across their faces.

Entering the main room of Xu Mansion, Xu Huizu sat on the main seat with a serious face. Seeing Zhu Gaochi coming in, he stood up and cupped his hands. Just as he was about to speak, Zhu Gaochi spoke first, "Gaochi has seen Uncle!"

Xu Huizu froze, then felt a little satisfied, then slowly nodded and cupped his hands, "Your Majesty is very polite."

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, who followed closely behind Zhu Gaochi, also stepped forward to salute.

After greeting each other, Xu Huizu asked, "How is your lord doing? But you're already awake?"

Zhu Gaochi pretended to be sad and said, "Father is still the same... The imperial doctors have read it and said that we have to wait for a while..."

Xu Huizu nodded, and said seriously, "The prince is seriously ill now, and the prince still needs to take care of his health, and the affairs of the Prince Yan's mansion need to be taken care of by the prince!" After a pause, Xu Huizu said again, "After the emperor's grandson ascends the throne, the prince will take care of the prince. Come to Nanjing. The imperial physicians are also in Nanjing, and there are many good doctors in Nanjing. Maybe the prince’s illness will be cured..."

When Zhu Gaochi heard this, he smiled and asked him to bring his father to Nanjing?

His father will definitely come to Nanjing, but he must not pick him up...

But do these words imply that the grandson of the emperor wants to detain himself for a long time?

Zhu Gaochi responded with a few perfunctory words on his face, and then got up with Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui to leave.

Walking back to his own courtyard, in the room, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui looked at each other, and couldn't help saying, "Brother!"

Zhu Gaochi turned his head and glanced at the maids and servants who were arranging luggage and rooms around him. Zhu Gaochi smiled and asked, "What? Are you hungry? It's okay! I'll let the maids go down and give you some food later."

Zhu Gaosui wanted to speak again, Zhu Gaoxu pulled him, and said, "Well, brother, then you can tell me. My third brother and I are going back to our room first."

"Well! You go!" Zhu Gaochi said with a smile.

Watching them go down, Zhu Gaochi glanced at the servants around him, feeling worried, hey, he doesn't want to be watched all day long.

**********

At this time, in the study of the Xu Mansion.

Xu Huizu paced back and forth, frowning tightly.

When Xu Zengshou came in, he saw Xu Huizu frowned, paused, and said respectfully, "Brother!"

"Zengshou? You are here! Is the prince settled?" Xu Huizu turned his head and asked.

"If you go back to elder brother, everything has been settled." Xu Zengshou responded respectfully.

"Zengshou, listen, from today onwards, you can take back the business that our family has been involved with Yanwangfu, and you can pay more, but we are not allowed to have any involvement in the business of Yanwangfu. "

Xu Zengshou was taken aback.

"Also... we must take good care of the prince, and we must not let the prince leave our Xu residence for half a step!"

Xu Zengshou frowned, "Brother, is this okay? This...isn't it imprisoning the prince?"

Xu Huizu waved his hands impatiently, "It's okay! Isn't the order from the emperor's grandson to our family to be optimistic about the son? If the son is allowed to go out and sneak away, our family will really be able to eat and walk away!"

Xu Zengshou's heart sank, so...won't there be no chance at all?

"Zengshou, did you hear that?" Xu Huizu asked sternly.

"Yes!"

Xu Huizu nodded in satisfaction.He sighed again, "Zengshou, it's not that I don't care about my little sister, it's just that... the situation is not good now! If King Yan is willing to enter Beijing this time, that's okay, but King Yan refuses to enter Beijing, no wonder the empress dowager Sun is suspicious!"

Xu Zengshou nodded, thinking to himself, if the prince enters Beijing, the situation will be even worse!

"Now the emperor's grandson is still hesitating in his heart, and he doesn't know how to deal with the prince..."

When Xu Zengshou heard it, his heart sank, what to do?

Xu Zengshou asked in a low voice, "Could it be that the grandson of the emperor wants to..."

Xu Huizu just let out a long sigh and didn't answer, Xu Zengshou's heart sank even more.

This time... trouble!

***********

At this time, in Nanjing Yanwang Mansion.

Zhu Di stared at the letter in his hand with a gloomy expression.

There are only seven words on the letter: The grandson of the emperor wants to kill the son

"My lord?" When Zhu Neng came in, what he saw was Zhu Di's expressionless but murderous look.He couldn't help but pause, startled, and opened his mouth cautiously.

Snapped!

Zhu Di violently swung the teacup off the table, and with a bang, the teacup shattered!

**********

It was night, Zhu Gaochi was lying on the bed with a bitter face, hey, he couldn't sleep again!

Looking at the window with a small gap, the gap is not large, but it is just enough for passers-by to see the situation in the house clearly.

Seeing the same patrolling sergeant passing by again, Zhu Gaochi sighed in his heart, turned over, and closed his eyes. Someone was watching him even when he was sleeping. How could he sleep like this!

Hey, don't let them watch, I'm afraid they won't be able to sleep either.

Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but miss the letter from his father when he came to Nanjing for the first time...

Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but have a thought in his heart, would his father write him such a letter again?

I wrote it, where will I hide it?

There used to be under the pillow, on the desk, and by the window sill...

It's inconvenient now, will it be hidden in the pillow?

As soon as the thought popped up, he couldn't stop it, so Zhu Gaochi couldn't help reaching out to touch the pillow, and touched it for a while, but there was nothing...

Zhu Gaochi felt a little lost.Sighing and closing his eyes.

************

At this time, Zhu Di was writing a letter.

The handwriting is a bit scribbled, but Zhu Di wrote very attentively.

After finishing writing, Zhu Di folded it, thought for a while, took out a box, and put a clay figurine in it.Put the letter together, cover it, put it on the window sill, and said in a low voice, "Send it to Shizi immediately!"

********

Today is the day to enter the palace to worship.

After Zhu Gaochi finished dressing, he walked out of the courtyard, and saw that Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui were already standing at the door waiting for him.Then he smiled gently.I thought to myself, these two people have also changed and matured a lot in the past few years.

This time, the three of them shared a carriage.

On the carriage, Zhu Gaochi told him softly, "Speak less and listen more. If you have a hard time answering a question, just laugh."

Both Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui nodded solemnly, "Brother, we know."

Zhu Gaochi nodded in satisfaction.

After entering the palace, first went to the palace of worship.

After paying homage to the sacrifice, looking at the tablet, Zhu Gaochi couldn't help thinking, is Grandpa Huang wandering on Huangquan Road like he was back then?

After leaving the palace where they worshiped, the three of them went to the palace where Zhu Yunqi lived.

After entering the palace, Zhu Gaochi saluted respectfully.

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui also saluted.

After saluting, Zhu Yunqi signaled them to get up.

Zhu Gaochi took a sneak peek, and saw that Zhu Yunwen's expression was calm, and his brows and eyes were a little irritable.

"Gao Chi, when you come to Nanjing, just stay well. After a while, when the fourth uncle's health is better, take the fourth uncle here too." Zhu Yunqi said lightly.

The faces of Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui suddenly became ugly.

Zhu Gaochi nodded with a smile on his face, "I was about to ask His Highness, but I didn't expect His Highness to mention it first. Your Highness is really careful."

As soon as these words came out, both Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui looked at Zhu Gaochi with some astonishment on their faces.

And Zhu Yunqi stared at Zhu Gaochi, and then nodded and said lightly, "This is what it should be."

But Zhu Gaochi looked distressed again, and said, "But Your Highness...the father has no one to take care of him now, and the mother and concubine have to take care of the Yan Palace. Can you ask Your Highness to let Gao Xu and Gao Sui go back to take care of the father, so that it will be easier?" How about escorting father, queen, mother and concubine to the capital together?"

Zhu Yunwen frowned, pondered for a while, and then slowly said, "Let's talk about it in a few days. Grandpa's sacrifice ceremony is not over yet..."

Zhu Gaochi said with some shame, "Hey! Your Highness still has filial piety, I forgot about it!"

Zhu Yunqi smiled lightly at this moment, "You are also worried about Uncle Fourth. It's okay, it's okay."

Zhu Gaochi glanced at Zhu Yunqi again, and found that the irritability between Zhu Yunqi's brows and eyes seemed to have subsided a lot, and his expression was not so cold.

Only then did Zhu Gaochi heave a sigh of relief.

After chatting a few more words, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui left.

When leaving, Zhu Gaochi saw a person coming from the opposite side, and couldn't help squinting and smiling, isn't this Uncle Zhou Wang?

Zhu Gaochi slowly cupped his hands and said with a smile, "My nephew pays respects to Uncle Wang!"

The man who came across was about 30 years old, with a dark face and a kind expression. He looked Zhu Gaochi up and down, and then smiled and said, "Gao Chi doesn't need to be polite!"

The man who came was the king of Zhou.Today, among all the feudal lords, this is only the King of Yan!

Zhu Gaochi smirked, and asked, "Uncle Zhou Wang was also blown by the strong wind?"

When King Zhou heard this, his eyes lit up slightly. The tree attracts the wind?Then he laughed and said, "Oh, it's spring, and there's nothing to do with the strong wind." He patted Zhu Gaochi's shoulder with a smile, "It's okay! Just wait for the wind to pass!"

Zhu Gaochi nodded with a smile, and said in distress, "Uncle Zhou, Gao Xu and Gao Sui have been clamoring to go hunting, Uncle Zhou, you know, my father is seriously ill now, and I have to deal with many things, and I don't have time to go Looking at the two of them, please ask Uncle Zhou to take them hunting if he has time!"

The King of Zhou stared at Zhu Gaochi for a long time, and after a while, he laughed and patted Zhu Gaochi's head, "Okay! It's on me!"

Zhu Gaochi's eyes lit up, he cupped his hands and said, "Gaochi thanked Uncle Zhou Wang!"

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui who were behind him were bewildered.

After chatting for a few more words, Zhu Gaochi bid farewell to King Zhou and left the palace.

King Zhou looked at Zhu Gaochi's back and sighed lightly, his fourth brother seemed really lucky.With such a smart and affectionate son, now the empress dowager Sun clearly wants to deal with him, but he is thinking about the safety of his two younger brothers... However, how dare he propose to himself the idea of ​​taking away Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui? request?

Why is he so sure that he will help?Could it be that my fourth brother said it?No!Although the fourth brother and him are compatriots, their relationship is not very good.

King Zhou rubbed his chin and habitually squatted on the ground thinking hard.
