Rebirth of Yongle Merry

Chapter 10 Homesick Horse Head Wall

In the twilight, Qi Zhaonan walked into the largest pawnshop in the south of the city, but left in a hurry.

Shen Kunwu confessed that he wanted to help Shen Yunxu redeem the purple jade heirloom passed down from his family, and he rushed over after visiting the construction site in the north of the city.It's just that the master and servant of the Shen family decided to leave Beiping that day, thinking that they would never come back again, so Shen Kunwu took Ziyu as his own.

Qi Zhaonan asked for redemption, but Ziyu had already been sold elsewhere.

"I'm really sorry, the purple jade was sent to Jin Yutang five days ago, if you really want it, maybe it's still too late to go and have a look."

Five days late, can you still buy Ziyu back?

Qi Zhaonan rushed to Jin Yutang like the wind, Shen Kunwu asked him to do something for the first time, so he couldn't mess it up.

Zhu Quan broke up with Zhang Fu, and walked along the road with his bodyguards.He ate too much kebabs, and he is still belching from fullness, so there is really no need to rush back to Prince Yan's mansion for dinner.He casually walked into a shop selling jade on the side of the road.

"Master Qi, this is the purple jade you want."

The shop assistant wrapped a piece of purple jade in a cloth towel and handed it to the young man standing in the shop.Yao Ping only felt a flash in front of his eyes, and Zhu Quan had already jumped in front of the other party with bright eyes, his expression was like a fox seeing a tender chicken, Yao Ping felt his head was getting bigger.

"May I have a look at your purple jade?"

"No."

Qi Zhaonan took Ziyu into his palm, turned and left indifferently.

Zhu Quan tore off the jade around his neck, and said eagerly: "I want the purple jade in your hand, how about I exchange it with you?"

Yao Ping was taken aback. The jade pendant with dragon pattern on Zhu Quan's neck was only worn by the royal family's children. It was priceless, and he casually offered to exchange it with others.Is he crazy?As a result, Qi Zhaonan didn't even look at it, and walked away without saying a word.

"No change."

Zhu Quan chased out of the shop unwillingly, Qi Zhaonan walked faster and faster, Yao Ping took Zhu Quan's life to pull Zhu Quan back.

"Your Highness Seventeen, calm down, calm down."

"Calm down your head!"

Zhu Quan turned around angrily, glared at Yao Ping and said, "You want to die, don't you? Dare to stop me?"

Yao Ping's hair stood on end from his stare, but he didn't dare to let go. If Zhu Quan really replaced the jade pendant, his fate would be even worse!

"If Your Highness the Seventeenth likes purple jade, this subordinate can find another piece for His Highness."

"I only want his piece, do you understand?"

Zhu Quan almost finished speaking with a roar, and a sour emotion burst out, and he felt that he was full of disappointment.How could the purple jade that had been hanging on Shen Yunxu's chest appear in Beiping?But things are similar.Daming has a population of 8000 million and a territory of more than 1000 million. Even though he is powerful now, he still can't find the person he is looking for.He was really scared, it was already too late when he found Shen Yunxu, and they could only miss each other again.His throat felt astringent, and he asked Yao Ping, "If I can't find him, what should I do?"

Yao Ping stared blankly at him with a tearless expression, forgot to answer the question for a while, and just shook his head subconsciously.

"Let's go, let's go back to Prince Yan's Mansion."

The loneliness in Zhu Quan's eyes deepened, he broke away from Yao Ping silently, turned around and left.

Back at King Yan's Mansion, Zhu Di had been waiting in the study for a long time.

"Seventeen, I don't remember who you knew in Beiping. You can linger all day without going back to Yanwang's mansion?" .Zhu Di stared at him, "Did you listen to me?"

"Fourth brother, I'm listening, you continue."

Zhu Di slapped the document in his hand on the table vigorously, "You're not listening at all!"

"Whether I pay attention or not, I can know what you want to say. You have to remind me that my father asked me to come to the north to tell me to go to Daning to inspect the construction of my palace, not to eat, drink and play in Beiping! Next spring When the flowers are in full bloom, I will be 16 years old. If I don’t even have a palace, I can only squat in the straw nest after the feudal clan.”

Zhu Di was so angry that he was so angry that he laughed instead.

"Now that you know what I want to say, let me ask you, when will you leave Beiping?"

Zhu Quan lowered his eyes, looking extremely pitiful.

"Although we are brothers, we are also guests when passing through the door. How can you drive me away, fourth brother?"

Zhu Di didn't buy it at all, "Nonsense, talk about time!"

"Ten days!"

"no!"

"Nine days!"

……

"Follow your daydreams, keep bargaining with me, and I'll send someone to escort you out of Peiping overnight!"

Zhu Di frowned, obviously angry.Zhu Quan was defeated, and reluctantly said: "Okay, I'll take Yao Ping to Daning to see my palace tomorrow, okay?"

"Come and bid farewell to me tomorrow, don't let me send someone to escort you away."

"Fourth brother, you are really fierce!"

Zhu Quan took out Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui from his pocket, and took out the writing paper that he asked him to bring and patted it on the desk, "Your two sons asked me to show you the homework! You forgot that they are your sons, but they are still Miss you old man!"

Zhu Di glanced at Zhu Quan, and silently unfolded the writing paper.

Zhu Quan turned to leave, but he stopped him from behind, "Seventeen, don't blame the fourth brother, as a prince, you should have your own responsibilities, and the father is in Nanjing, so you can see it."

"I know."

Zhu Quan walked out of the study, and outside was a round of warm spring moon, casting a cold light.

Mochizuki sighed, and suddenly remembered the years in Gouling Mountain.Jungle, stream, purple iris, so unrestrained and free.How on earth can he reunite with the man who smells as good as a certain flower and herbal fragrance on his chest?

The carriage stopped at the stone steps in front of the palace gate, and Zhang Fu had already been waiting there as before.

Shen Yunxu got out of the car and reached out to help Qi Kan down too.

This is the second time he has come to Yanwang Mansion, this time, he will have face-to-face and close contact with Zhu Di.His heart suddenly became chaotic.If Zhu Di's seizure of the throne is unstoppable, the only thing he can do is to change his decision to kill Fang Xiaoru. This is his biggest purpose in coming to Peiping, but he becomes uneasy when he takes the first step towards the unattainable goal up.

The first time he saw Zhu Di was in the dense drizzle, the man on the horse turned his head inadvertently, and looked at him from the air with his faint purple eyes.

An unusual premonition arose, and Shen Yunxu felt that with this step, there might be something that would no longer be under his control.

"Yun Xu, let's go."

They agreed with Zhu Di on Chenshi, and I'm afraid he will lose his temper again after the time passes.Shen Yunxu anxiously followed Qi Kan through the corridor, almost to the door of Zhu Di's study, when he suddenly remembered, "Mr. Qi, I'm very sorry, I forgot the blueprint on the carriage."

Zhang Fu asked: "Where did you put it in the carriage? Do you want me to go back and fetch it for you?"

Shen Yunxu shook his head and said, "I'll go by myself, I'll be back soon."

He hurriedly turned back along the original road. Zhang Fu and Qi Kan were waiting outside Zhu Di's study. , don't miss me too much."

"roll!"

Zhu Di was obviously very angry, and almost said the word with a roar.Zhu Quan walked past Zhang Fu with a smile, "Commander Zhang, I'm leaving Beiping now, and I'll see you next year." Then he winked at him, turned his back to Qi Kan and said in a low voice, "Remember to take me with you again." I'm going to hit the horseshoe."

"It's easy for His Highness the Seventeenth to go, and the subordinates will wait for His Highness to come again at the Palace of King Yan."

Zhu Quan waved his hand chicly, and walked away with his bodyguards.

When Shen Yunxu came back with the blueprint in his arms, Zhu Quan had already gone a long way.He stood in the wide courtyard, turned his head by chance, and there were row upon row of palaces behind him, with a majestic purple aura.And the three people who were standing outside Zhu Di's study just now stepped into the door.

It was only a little bit away, and he missed the person he cared about the most and wanted to see the most.

The drawings were spread out on the desk, Shen Yunxu watched Zhu Di stand up, his eyes fell on it intently, and he stroked the ink line with his fingertips.His hands were not the pampered ones as he imagined, they were thinly calloused and stained with dried ink. It could be seen that he was used to drawing a bow and shooting arrows, and he had just finished correcting documents.

"Who drew this pattern?"

There was no emotion in his tone, and with his back turned, Qi Kan said anxiously: "It's the craftsman under my master's family, and his name is Shen Yunxu."

Zhu Di turned around, his faint purple eyes fell on Shen Yunxu.

"Have I seen you somewhere?"

He frowned slightly in thought, Shen Yunxu bowed and saluted, and responded calmly, "Going back to the prince, it is among the ruins where the dragon raised his head."

Zhang Fu interjected, "The lord also ordered his subordinates to find him a coat."

"Oh it's you."

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows, and suddenly showed a gentle and friendly smile.

When this man was angry, he was as fierce as a sword, but with a gentle smile, it made people feel the gentle spring breeze from Jiangnan.Shen Yunxu couldn't help raising his head, Zhu Di looked at him and asked, "Are you from the south? It's really rare to have such skills at such a young age."

"My lord has won the prize."

Shen Yunxu's eyes fell on the place where Zhu Di's fingertips had been grinding just now, because the composition of the house to be built was based on the folk houses in Huizhou, so he drew a few houses with horse head walls in Huizhou at that position.

As if Zhu Di could read his mind, he slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the inside was as clear as if washed by water. "My father grew up in Fengyang, and I stayed there for three or four years. This is the familiar horse head wall in our hometown."

Shen Yunxu suddenly understood that the pattern he drew made Zhu Di feel homesick.

Zhu Di was sent back to his ancestral home in Fengyang by Zhu Yuanzhang before he was 21 years old.Their grandparents were buried there, and it was also the place where their father herded cattle and sheep for the rich family when they were young.There is "nine years of famine in ten years", and his father Zhu Yuanzhang came out of such a place, fought in the world to quell the troubled times, and finally became a generation of emperors.Is it because he lived in a difficult place that he lived in Beiping for 12 years and fought in Mongolia many times without fear of the wind and cold outside the Great Wall?

From the first time we met, I felt that the high and mighty prince was so approachable.

Shen Yunxu watched Zhu Di close the pattern, and when he spoke again, his emotions had completely calmed down.

"Mr. Qi, the king will allocate additional funds, and the house will be built according to this pattern."

Walking along the corridor and leaving through Guangtian Hall, Shen Yunxu and Zhang Fu fell behind, his sleeves were pulled lightly, and a piece of blue warm jade was stuffed into his palm.

Zhang Fu's eyes met his, and then quickly turned away.

He whispered: "For you, this jade is very suitable for you."

Shen Yunxu looked at the jasper in his hand in surprise, Qi Kan had already stepped on the step stool and boarded the carriage, raised the curtain and asked, "Yunxu, what's wrong?"

"Cousin, it's a good journey."

Zhang Fu waved to Qi Kan, then smiled at Shen Yunxu, turned around and strode back.

In the enclosing corridor of carved beams and painted buildings, Zhang Fu is wearing a red robe, with a vigorous figure, his clothes and shoes are dragged by the east wind blowing horizontally, and his young eyebrows and eyes are confident.Shen Yunxu held the jasper in the palm of his hand, and the man's faint body temperature still remained on it, as if it could warm up a person's whole heart.

"In the second year of Jianwen in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, crossed the river here. He conquered Nanjing, took the throne, and changed his Yuan to Yongle. In the next year, he was named Tianjin, and the Weizhu City was established." This is the ruins park on Nanyun North Road, Hongqiao District, Tianjin, using Yanshan Mountain The granite follow-up stone at the foot of the mountain range and the inscriptions carved on the stele accurately reproduce the origin and origin of "Tianjin".

After Zhu Di Nandu took the throne, he sent people back to the place where he crossed the river to build two archways, which were named "Longfei" and "Dujue". "Longfei" and "Duju" are the emperor's special words, implying "dragon flies to the nine heavens" and "the emperor's chariots and horses cross the river here".
