My father Yongle, building a five-good family

Chapter 137 The Man Destined to Be

The people in Peking city don't know that much.

When they see the so-called clouds covering the sky, they would never think of the ancient Emperor Gaozu of Han.

Because... I haven't been to school and have never heard of these things.

At most, you could hear a few words of the story when people were telling stories in teahouses.

But if you want to tell stories in a teahouse, you have to be able to afford the tea and have the time and leisure.

Ordinary people, who have to work hard to make a living all day long, would have the time to spend the whole day in a teahouse.

but……

Although they did not know Emperor Gaozu of Han, they could clearly understand from Yuan Gong's words the auspicious sign represented by the clouds covering the sky.

all in all.

Zhu Gaoyu is not an ordinary person, and Prince of Yan is not an ordinary person.

They are all children of destiny.

God is helping Prince Yan!
It is possible that the King of Yan is suffering from a serious illness right now, and is covered by clouds. Suddenly, a loud thunderclap will sound out of nowhere, and the evil spirit in his body will be removed. In a few days, he will recover from his illness.

Xie Gui originally thought that he could turn the situation around because of the thunder and the dark clouds.

But unexpectedly, when the situation was about to turn around, this old Taoist priest, by some unknown means, revealed the truth in just a few words, and even brought the dead back to life, giving Zhu Gaoyu and Prince of Yan a mysterious halo.

He simply rolled his eyes and fainted.

Zhu Gaoyu blinked and looked at Xie Gui who was lying on the bed. He said nothing. But when he turned his head to look at Yuan Gong, the meaning of his eyes was very clear.

Take a look.

I didn’t expect that Taoist Yuan’s ability to make people angry was so strong.

Yuan Gong's face still had an unfathomable look.

Seeing that Xie Gui couldn't cause any more trouble, he retreated behind Zhu Gaoyu, looking as if it had nothing to do with him and that he didn't care.

At this moment, Zhu Gaoyu looked at Yuan Gong, and couldn't help but look at Yao Guangxiao.

Although he didn't know why Yuan Gong was willing to help him, Zhu Gaoyu felt that in some ways, Yuan Gong and Yao Guangxiao... were quite similar.

The two of them could scare people into a daze just by talking to each other.

As a result, Zhu Gaoyu became more confident in his plan to fool the "people's hearts".

So he waved his hand, and walked forward without recognizing anyone, followed by two old men and a little Jixiang, and walked out with the momentum of a mighty army.

But after Zhu Gaoyu took a few steps, he keenly noticed something was wrong.

He looked up and found that the dark clouds above his head, for some reason, had not dissipated yet, and there was a faint tendency for them to follow.

Now he's a little numb.

Mr. Yuan was just bragging.

How come it actually came true!

At this moment, Zhu Gaoyu looked at Yuan Gong and couldn't help but open his eyes wide.

Old man Yuan... No, it should be Mr. Yuan, is he so terrifying? !
Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoyu took a breath of cold air.

The people around, as well as Zhang Bing, Zhang Xin and others in the distance, watched the dark clouds moving with Zhu Gaoyu and couldn't help but gasp.

The youngest son of Prince Yan... is so terrifying!
……

Peking City.

At this time, the city of Beiping had abandoned the relatively empty northern part after the King of Zhongshan under the Ming Taizu conquered the Yuan capital. At the same time, the northern city wall was moved five miles south.

The original Peking University had a total of eleven gates, but after being renovated in the early Ming Dynasty, only nine gates remained.

It was during this one or two days that Zhu Gaoyu disguised himself, painted his face black, stole his mother's charcoal pencil, and painted his eyebrows several degrees thicker. He took his men on a stroll and became familiar with the Nine Gates, which he was already very familiar with.

At the same time, since Xie Gui fainted, the atmosphere in Beiping City has become increasingly tense.

However, when the officials did not notice it, a rumor gradually spread among the common people.

It just so happens that the weather is warm today.

Many young wives and girls in the alley brought wooden buckets and came out to wash and scrub while the weather was good.

The old lady at Xizhimen gate fetched a basin of water from the well in the alley, then found a good spot, took out a small stool, and rubbed her face vigorously with her hands while keeping quiet.

Then he spoke mysteriously:
"Hey, did you hear about it?"

The person who spoke was Mrs. Liu from Kuanzhai Alley.

Liu Pozi is a grandmother and a mother-in-law. Apart from scolding her daughter-in-law and coaxing her eldest grandson, her favorite thing to do is gossip.

But what she talked about today was not the family affairs or which brother-in-law cheated on her. Someone who was on good terms with Granny Liu started talking:

"What have you heard? Come on, tell us what you have heard."

"He's the youngest son of Prince Yan. That's the one...what's his name? Oh, right! Prince Dinghai's son!"

"I'm going to die. You dare to talk about this kind of thing and this kind of person? Do you want to live?"

"Tsk! Why are you pretending in front of me? Hu Damei, as soon as you stick your butt out, I know what shit you are going to do. Everyone knows that the Prince of Dinghai is not an ordinary person. The Prince of Yan is..."

Mrs. Liu didn't say the rest, but she pulled her hand out of the cold water, stretched out a finger, and pointed to the sky above her head.

The meaning is self-evident.

Hu Damei naturally knew about this matter.

Two days ago, when Xie Gui was riding his horse past the palace, there was a loud thunderclap and a cloud covered Zhu Gaoyu's head. All the common people present saw this incident clearly.

With this incident, coupled with the rumors and verdicts that had arisen from nowhere in recent days, the two things confirmed each other, and coupled with the rapid spread of the rumors, word of mouth was so strong that even before the officials did anything, the common people below had already believed it without a doubt.

When it came to this, a young wife next to him also interrupted, looking like she knew it long ago:
"The King of Yan is no longer an ordinary person. I heard from my distant cousins ​​that the King of Dai in Datong is not as easy to talk to as our King of Yan, and his life is not as stable as ours. I heard that if the King of Yan and the Prince of Dinghai had not gone there before, I am afraid that the city wall of Datong would not have been repaired, and the refugees would still be gathered at the city gate."

Speaking of the refugees in Datong, these gossipy women became interested again.

Don't underestimate these gossipy women.

Some things just happen to spread further and further and become more and more serious through word of mouth among these women in the market.

Coincidentally, they were now talking about the refugees who had come from Datong, namely Zhu Gaoyu's guards.

Of course, the focus of the topic is naturally the Sultan, a Lumi man with deep eyes and a high nose, who looks particularly strange to the people of the Ming Dynasty.

When Mrs. Liu talked about Sudan, she couldn't help but sigh:

"This Western Regions people can also listen to our Dinghai County Prince. No wonder people say that Dinghai County Prince is extraordinary, and the King of Yan is even more of a son of destiny..."

In an instant, Mrs. Liu spoke too fast and actually said the words "child of destiny" in public.

She slapped her lips guiltily, and while no one around her could react, she quietly lifted the wooden basin and slipped away.

In an instant, the whole alley and the well became deserted from the bustling scene.

Among this group of women, there was an old woman who looked rosy-complexioned and strong, with a look of deep thought in her eyes.

From beginning to end, she didn't say a word.

But at the same time, she also listened to every word of the conversation here.

……

The sun sets.

Although the old woman is old, she is still energetic. She carries a wooden basin on her shoulder. When she walks, her steps are small but her frequency is not slow, which shows that she is in good health.

open the door.

This is a large house with three entrances and three exits.

The house is located deep in the alley. It looks inconspicuous on the surface, but it has a natural ancient charm inside.

yard.

Zhang Xin stood with his hands behind his back, pacing in the courtyard from time to time, thinking, with an anxious look on his face.

The tea that had been brewed on the stone table had already gone cold.

Zhang Xin's mother, the old woman, dismissed the servants around her and couldn't help asking:

"Son, you're walking around like this, and I feel dizzy. What are you doing? You've been in Beijing for a long time, so how come you still can't figure out something?"

This old lady meddles in everything.

Zhang Xin looked at his mother who was also anxious like him, and felt a little funny and helpless.

"Mom, this is not something a small commander in Peking like me can get involved in. You should also stop getting involved and just enjoy your life as an old lady."

When Zhang Xin's mother heard this, she put down the wooden basin, stared at her son for a while, and then snorted:
"I know. You just feel that I'm old and don't want to be a family father-in-law if I'm not deaf or dumb. I understand this. But I also know what's bothering you. And I have to tell you about it."

This time, Zhang Xin became interested.

He looked at his mother leisurely:

"Then mother, tell me, have you figured out what your son is worried about recently?"

"Well, it's just the matter of King Yan. It seems like everyone knows about it."

The old lady waved her hand, ignoring Zhang Xin's jaw-dropping expression, and spoke mysteriously:

"Son, you can't go against the King of Yan. The King of Yan and his son are the ones destined by heaven."
