My father Yongle, building a five-good family

Chapter 39: Smart Zhu Gaoxu
Yuan Rong hated her brother-in-law so much that she gnashed her teeth. She clenched the chopsticks in her hand so hard that the bones in her hand creaked.

This guy Li Jinglong...really deserves a beating.

Zhu Gaoyu turned his head, glanced at his elder sister, and sighed with some sadness.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuying found it quite funny. She turned slightly and whispered:
"You are just a little kid, why are you sighing so much?"

Zhu Gaoyu glanced at her:
"Big sister, don't you think that your cousin and second brother are sometimes...very similar?"

Zhu Gaoyu was really worried that with Zhu Gaoxu's personality, he might get put in a sack for jumping around too happily.

While the Emperor is here, we dare not do that.

If the crown prince succeeds to the throne, who knows if it will bring disaster.

After thinking about it, Zhu Gaoyu glanced at Zhu Gaoxu who was still happy, sighed lightly and shook his head.

Well, for the sake of my second brother being my son, from now on, every time Zhu Gaoyu eats a bite of meat, my second brother will have a sip of soup to sip.

Zhu Yuying looked at Zhu Gaoyu's sudden serious expression and was somewhat puzzled:
"Xiao Si? You only ate three bowls of rice. Are you full now? Weren't you hungry before you came here today?"

Zhu Gaoyu spoke in a deep voice:
"I'm just carrying pressure that I shouldn't have at my age..."

Zhu Yuying shook her head, confused.

These guys... are becoming more and more incomprehensible!

……

When Zhu Gaochi came out of Yuan's house, he had a big belly and a complicated expression on his face, as if he was satisfied, but also as if he was regretful.

Zhu Gaoxu gritted his teeth at the side, watching his elder brother move so slowly, and laughed at him, while at the same time trying his best to taunt him:
"This is really a ten-day accumulation, ruined in one day! Big brother, I think you should stop messing around every day, getting up early to exercise, and walking around after dinner. If you just control your mouth, everything will be fine!"

Zhu Gaochi gritted his teeth, and was so angry that he wanted to punch the second brother. "When will you control your mouth? Then everything will be fine for me!"

Zhu Gaosui weighed the pros and cons of this conversation at the dinner table, and finally sided with Zhu Gaochi, frowning and saying:
"Second brother, this matter really can't be handled the way you do."

"Li Jinglong is not only the Duke of Cao and the Prince's tutor, but he is also so close to Zhu Yunwen that they are almost the same age. If you offend Li Jinglong now, what will you do in the future?"

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at them, and a sense of superiority in intelligence arose spontaneously. He stood with his hands behind his back and spoke confidently:
“I have everything under control.”

Zhu Gaoyu rolled his eyes almost to the sky and sneered:

"You hold the egg!"

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui nodded slightly.

Rough words are not rough.

"Snapped!"

He was slapped on the forehead again.

Zhu Gaoyu: He endured it! It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge!

After teaching the fourth brother a lesson, Zhu Gaoxu felt more cheerful. He smiled complacently:
"You just think that I provoked Li Jinglong, but you don't know that I have two things to rely on."

"Double?"

The remaining three brothers looked at each other in bewilderment. This didn't seem to match the intelligence of the second oldest brother...

All I could hear was Zhu Gaoxu continuing to talk:

"The first reliance is Grandpa Huang."

"As long as the Emperor is still here, Li Jinglong won't dare to touch us. No matter how much the Emperor favors him, he is just an outsider. Our grandfather, despite what those sour scholars say about him being cold and ruthless, is actually the one who can distinguish between relatives and strangers."

Oops.

sure.

The second child is also so wise!
Zhu Gaochi was in high spirits, and even forgot the fatigue of walking on the way back to digest his food. He even had the mood to ask:
"What is the second level then?"

"The second level..." Zhu Gaoxu smiled with some ambiguous meaning.

"Do you think Li Jinglong really completely sides with Zhu Yunwen? Not to mention that Lady Cao is also related to my sister, even my father has been with Li Jinglong for some time."

"In my opinion, this guy is very cunning. He went back to his parents' home under the name of the wife of Duke Cao, and then took the opportunity to meet us and use a few Hequ horses to establish a relationship with us."

"He's betting on both sides, so as not to offend anyone!"

"Although this guy seems arrogant and looks down on others, he is actually very slippery. He didn't offend anyone after using this trick!" Hey.

If you think about it carefully, this is indeed the case!

and so……

Zhu Gaoyu couldn't help but think of that question again.

Who can tell him whether Li Jinglong is really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?
Is he a straw bag or an undercover agent?
This question lingered in Zhu Gaoyu's mind for a long time. Even before he fell asleep, he seemed to still be able to see Li Jinglong's handsome face.

cut.

Pretty boy.

In the future, he will definitely look more heroic and domineering than Li Jinglong!
……

early morning.

Today is a rare day off, so I don’t have to go to Wenhua Hall for class.

However, Zhu Gaoyu still got up early in the morning, wiped the toothpaste made by ancient methods with Poria cocos, sapodilla, lotus leaf, etc. with cold water, applied it to his horsetail toothbrush, and started to brush his teeth carefully.

After brushing almost done, Zhu Gaoyu started to rinse his mouth.

When he was about to go out, he took Xiao Jixiang and ran through the courtyard.

Zhu Gaochi was currently getting up early to exercise, as a way of atonement for the snacks he had eaten last night, when he saw a small figure flash by.

He immediately raised his voice:

"Where are you going? Are you not going to have breakfast?"

Zhu Gaoyu looked sturdy, but his body was very flexible and after a while, he disappeared from sight.

After running away, he just waved his hand without looking back:

"Brother, I'll go out to eat. I have money!"

Having said that, he turned out of the gate.

Disappeared.

Zhu Gaochi was worried.

"This kid, how can the breakfast outside compare to the one in the mansion? This wonton stall on the roadside, the clatter of horse hooves passing by, the dust splashes into the soup bowl..."

Zhang found it funny.

"People say that if you eat something unclean, you won't get sick. But if you feed it too finely, it's not good. Look at dad and grandpa. When they were fighting against the Northern Yuan Dynasty, they marched through wind and rain, and they still had strong bodies."

After hearing this, Zhu Gaochi sighed:

"The child has grown up, no one can stop him. Just looking at his appearance, I know he has made friends outside..."

Zhang was helpless.

Those who know him think he is the eldest brother, and those who don’t know him... think he is the father!
……

It's a day off.

When Zhu Gaoyu arrived at the agreed place, he saw a dignified figure standing there.

In an instant, Zhu Gaoyu became happy:
"Brother Tie Hyun!"

Tie Xuan always felt that he was inexplicably inferior in seniority.

But it’s hard to say anything at this moment.

It is an honor for you to have the emperor's grandson call you his brother. You have no right to be picky.

If this is true, then it means that it is impossible to distinguish between the big king and the small king.

But when facing Zhu Gaoyu, Tie Xuan still bowed and addressed him according to the identities he and Zhu Gaoyu disguised when they went out:
"Fourth Young Master."
