My uncle is Zhu Di

Chapter 112 Shameless

Xu Qin sat in Zhu Gaochi's carriage and headed to the Eastern Palace. Also sitting here was Zhu Gaoxu!

At this moment, the two of them sat there slumped, looking at each other. Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said to Xu Qin, "I didn't expect that you have something in your hands. If I hadn't been injured today, I would have taught you a lesson."

"Tsk, wait for me for two years. After two years, I will beat you until you beg for mercy." Xu Qin sat there, looking at Zhu Gaoxu with contempt. A general who had fought many battles, he had fought him to a draw. He still had the nerve to do that? He was still arrogant in front of him. Only he had the qualifications to be arrogant.

"Boy, just wait. One day, I will make sure you know how powerful I am!" Zhu Gaoxu also felt looked down upon and pointed at Xu Qin.

"How about continuing? I can even sign a life and death agreement. Am I afraid of you?" Xu Qin said arrogantly again. He would not give him a good face.

"Alright, alright, it's already like this, do we still want to fight? Otherwise, when we get to the East Palace later, you can continue to fight each other. I have no objection." Zhu Gaochi said very happily, thinking that it was just burning down a princess's mansion, which was not a big problem. Now that Xu Qin was like this, it was hard to say whether he could get up tomorrow.

It is already the 29th day of the lunar year, and tomorrow is New Year's Eve. It is impossible for Xu Qin to come out tomorrow.

"Cousin, don't be so proud. Look, I will continue to burn down those princesses' palaces. They want to kill me, but I can let them go, including his palace!" Xu Qin said, pointing at Zhu Gaoxu.

Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said, "Otherwise, let's not celebrate the New Year. If you dare to burn mine, I will burn yours. Then I will let your father live in a thatched hut and he won't be able to get out."

"Okay, it's settled!" Xu Qin actually nodded.

"Alright, alright, Sakyabao, my father will give you an explanation for this matter. Those princesses have not been punished yet, but after the New Year, my father will definitely punish them. As for those civil officials, we have only arrested those you provided, but we have not touched or interrogated the others involved. This matter will not end so easily!
Besides, the princess mansions you burned down belong to the royal family. They are now managed by your aunt and will be managed by your cousin's wife in the future. You can't do this. Now that I have finally got some money back, you want me to use it to rebuild the princess mansions. That won't work!" Zhu Gaochi looked at Xu Qin and persuaded him.

"What does it have to do with me? Cousin, just tell me whether I have been wronged or not?" Xu Qin asked Zhu Gaochi.

"It's unfair, unfair, unfair. It is indeed very unfair. But don't worry, my father will compensate you." Zhu Gaochi said to Xu Qin.

"What compensation? Money? I don't want it! I don't want to be an official! What compensation can he give?" Xu Qin stared at Zhu Gaochi with disdain. Can Zhu Di still give a title? However, if it can be confirmed this time, the Duke of Wei can return to his own house, that's fine.

"We'll talk about it when the time comes. I will definitely make you satisfied. You are really awesome, kid. Now my father and mother are a little afraid of you." Zhu Gaochi said with a smile.

Xu Qin waved his hand. Who would believe it? Would Zhu Di be afraid of him? He was afraid that he would not make money for him. He went to the weaving bureau to show his ability to make money. He wanted to deal with him. Consider whether it was worthwhile? Zhu Di wanted to move the capital, dredge the canal, and fight the Tatars. He needed money. He couldn't do without money.

"Okay, stop talking. Just give your cousin some face. Just trust him this time. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer this time." Zhu Gaochi said to Xu Qin.

Xu Qin looked at Zhu Gaochi.

"Believe me, you did a great job this time. My father is very satisfied. No matter whether it is the matter of the Weaving Bureau or the investigation of the case, you have done a very good job. My father cannot ignore your contributions, so you can rest assured about this." Zhu Gaochi continued to say to Xu Qin.

"How should those princesses be punished?" Xu Qin asked Zhu Gaochi.

"You tell me, tell me how to punish them. Killing them is definitely not an option. After all, you are not dead. Of course, not punishing them is also an option. The reason for the punishment is not that they want to kill you, but that they colluded with the eunuchs and female officials in the inner palace and had bad intentions. That is why they must be severely punished. You have to make this clear." Zhu Gaochi said as he sat there.

"Drive them out of Nanjing?" Xu Qin thought for a moment and said to Zhu Gaochi.

"Okay, drive him out of Nanjing. However, your punishment is not severe enough. My father's punishment was much more severe than this. You will know when the time comes." Zhu Gaochi said to Xu Qin with a smile.

After hearing this, Xu Qin said no more. He had shown his attitude by burning Princess Nankang's house today, and also let the people around the Nanjing chief know his courage and ability. It would be fine if he burned the princess's house, so they should just stop messing with him in the future.

Soon the carriage arrived at the Eastern Palace. Zhu Gaochi helped Xu Qin down, and Zhu Gaosui came over and helped Zhu Gaoxu down.

Crown Princess Zhang also came over quickly. Seeing that they were being helped in, she asked in surprise, "What happened?"

"It's okay, it's okay. Don't worry about it. Go and prepare some delicious food. Also, get some blood-removing medicine and apply it on them!" Zhu Gaochi said with a smile and waved his hand.

"Okay, Sakyabao, second brother, you go in first. Be careful. I'll ask the servants to prepare soft cushions." Zhang hurriedly started to make arrangements.

Soon, they arrived at a side room, where Xu Qin leaned against the bed. Zhu Gaochi applied medicine to Xu Qin, while Zhu Gaosui applied medicine to Zhu Gaoxu.

In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Di learned that Zhu Gaochi had taken Xu Qin to the Eastern Palace, and he also knew that Xu Qin and Zhu Gaoxu had a martial arts competition in front of Princess Nankang.

"Sakyabao didn't lose?" Zhu Di asked in shock, looking at Li Xing, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Household Department. "Yes, both of them couldn't stand the pain, so they stopped fighting and the two ended up in a draw," Li Xing said respectfully.

Zhu Di murmured, "This boy is so powerful, I didn't realize it! He is a good general."

Li Xing had no comment.

"Notify them to send medicine for sprains and sprains and blood stasis removal immediately. Also, reward them with supplements to replenish their qi and blood. Also, send someone to the East Palace to send roast goose, roast chicken, roast duck, and good wine. Tell the boss to entertain Sakya Bao well." Zhu Di stood there and gave instructions to Li Xing.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I'll go right away!" Li Xing heard it and went out immediately.

The Queen was also very happy to learn that Xu Qin had come to the Eastern Palace, and she immediately rushed there.

After Xu Qin and the others had applied the medicine, they leaned over there while Zhu Gaochi was already fiddling with the fruit snacks.

"Come, come, try it. Come on, a palace maid, yes, it's you, sit next to Sakyabao and feed Sakyabao fruits!" Zhu Gaochi was very happy. He called a palace maid over and asked the palace maid to sit next to Xu Qin and feed Xu Qin fruits. Then he called another palace maid to sit next to Zhu Gaoxu and feed Zhu Gaoxu fruits.

"It's so nice and quiet like this, haha!" Zhu Gaochi was very happy to see the two of them slumped there.

"Boss, you are gloating over other people's misfortune, right? Without me, would Shakyabao be able to come to the Eastern Palace? Would today's incident be so easily resolved? And you are still laughing at me?" Zhu Gaoxu was unhappy and shouted at Zhu Gaochi.

"Yes, yes, you have made great contributions. Don't worry, I will talk to my father and will never snatch the credit from you. You can rest assured about this." Zhu Gaochi nodded and said with a smile.

"Hmph!" Zhu Gaoxu snorted coldly.

"Well, after all, it was the second brother who earned the credit at the cost of physical pain. As your eldest brother, I would never do anything to steal the credit from others. Hahaha!" Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but feel happy.

"Cousin, don't be too proud!" Xu Qin sat there and said coldly.

"Uh! No, no, I'm not proud, I'm just happy. You have finally come to my East Palace, I'm happy." Zhu Gaochi immediately gave in when he heard Xu Qin's threat. This kid sometimes gives people a headache when he does things.

After a few people chatted for a while, the things sent by Zhu Di arrived, including roast chicken, roast duck, and roast goose. Xu Da's favorite was roast goose. If there was no roast goose, roast duck would be fine. If there was no roast duck, roast chicken would also be fine.

Xu Huizu and Xu Qin were the same, they liked to eat this kind of food. Since they had practiced martial arts for many years, they probably had a strong preference for greasy things.

"Look, my father knows you like to eat this, so he sent it to you right away." Zhu Gaochi said to Xu Qin with a smile.

Xu Qin rolled his eyes, thinking that he was going to get rid of himself with just this little thing.

At this time, the Queen came, and Xu Qin and the others struggled to stand up. Queen Xu went over, supported Xu Qin and Zhu Gaoxu, and then hit them on the arm one by one, causing the two men to howl in pain.

"You feel the pain now, but you still want to fight in the street? Don't you care about your dignity?" Empress Xu said, glaring at them with pretended anger.

"Mom, I was wrong!" Zhu Gaoxu immediately admitted his mistake. There was nothing he could do because his mother was very ruthless.

"Aunt, my second cousin bullied me! Can you help me? Besides, they didn't let me burn down the princess's mansion! Look how my second cousin beat me. His body is all blue." Xu Qin howled immediately!

The three brothers were stunned by what they saw. They had never seen anyone so shameless.

"You deserve it. Aunt won't help you this time to teach you a lesson. Also, my aunt didn't allow you to burn down the princess's mansion. If you burn it down, I'll have to spend money to rebuild it. If you want to vent your anger, vent it somewhere else. Don't burn the houses. Those houses belong to my aunt!" Empress Xu pinched Xu Qin's face and said through gritted teeth.

"Aunt, it hurts!" Xu Qin shouted.

"Okay, okay, auntie won't pinch you anymore. Come, sit down!" Empress Xu immediately let go and helped Xu Qin sit down next to her. Then she asked Xu Qin, "Bao'er, what do you want to eat? Auntie will get it for you."

"Even after eating, aunt, I feel suffocated, very suffocated!" Xu Qin said, leaning there.

"Oh, it's okay, Bao'er. Just bear with it for your aunt first. Is this a plea from your aunt? Your aunt knows you've been wronged, but we'll get it all in the end. Besides, what belongs to you, no one can take it away." Empress Xu immediately looked at Xu Qin with heartache and said.
