Back to Ming Dynasty as Zhu Biao

Chapter 148

"What are you doing here?" Xu Miaowei squatted on the mountain bag with a few grasses wrapped around her hands, she pouted and turned her head slightly.

"Bold, is this how you came to talk to Gu?" Zhu Biao stepped forward, stood still in front of her, and looked down at Xu Miaowei.

"His Royal Highness, the little girl did not violate the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and did not burn, kill, or loot. Are you going to punish me for a few words?"

Xu Miaowei held a root of grass in her hand, swayed it back and forth, and walked down the hill, flicking the horse's tail, exuding a youthful breath.

"Where have you been these few days?" Zhu Biao asked.

"Return to Your Highness." Xu Miaowei said to Zhu Biao angrily: "Little girl, don't dare to disturb Your Highness, your beautiful day and beautiful scenery, spring festival night."

She stared at Zhu Biao, obviously angry.

But when he thought that he was not qualified to sulk, his heart was filled with a sense of powerlessness.

Not far away is the racecourse, it is the end of spring when the grass is lush, and the war horses in the distance graze leisurely on the grass.

The Ming army had been stationed in Fengxiang for more than half a month, and the spring plowing was slowly recovering, and the city began to be blatantly lively at night.

If there is no war, Zhu Biao is confident that Qinchuan, eight hundred miles away in Shaanxi, will become fertile land.

Seeing that Zhu Biao didn't speak, Xu Miaowei felt a little uneasy. With her eyes wide open and her hands behind her back, she stood on tiptoe: "Your Highness, I'm angry."

Zhu Biao turned his head, scratched her tall nose, pretending to be angry, and said, "Guke is angry, I just call him Baba."

"Baba?"

"Hey."

Xu Miaowei tilted her head and said, "Then I forgive Your Highness."

"You're still fooling around with Gu."

The two walked to a horse, Xu Miaowei stroked the hair on the horse's back and said, "Your Highness, look at the scimitar here."

Zhu Biao squeezed over to observe, and found that there was a thumb-sized scimitar mark on the horse's back: "Bei Yuan's horse still has a mark."

"Yes, these are war horses, just like meritorious service."

"Lonely knows."

"Then why didn't your Highness tell me just now?"

"Oh, I can't see clearly with my old eyes." Zhu Biao said with a smile.

The two of them didn't speak for a long time.

"What happened that night?" Xu Miaowei lowered her head and twisted her skirt.

"What's the matter? I forgot." Zhu Biao said nonsense in a serious manner.

"Ah, that night I was in His Highness's bed..."

"Alone forgets."

"How can you forget."

Zhu Biao didn't speak, but waved his hand.

"What is your relationship with her?"

After being silent for a while, Xu Miaowei kicked the wormwood on the ground and said in a casual tone: "The girl came here after you."

"That's the kind of relationship." Zhu Biao picked up the young foxtail, folded it into a ring and handed it to her: "It's too dangerous to be in the army, and it's always inconvenient for her to be in the military camp."

Xu Miaowei looked at the delicate grass ring in her palm, and raised it to the sky: "How did Your Highness do it? It's so beautiful."

A piece of grass can be twisted into a round grass ring, His Highness really knows how to make girls happy, after she finished speaking, she put it on her thumb and moved it around.

Zhu Biao shook his head, she was really a girl at heart, and wrote lightly: "This is called Yuelaokou."

"Yuelaokou?"

"Yuelao button is made by Yuelao for lovers. It is said that as long as you put it on, you can only belong to one person in this life. Whoever accepts Yuelao button belongs to him. This is called destiny."

Xu Miaowei held the ring and said, "Then I'd better return it to Your Highness."

Zhu Biao took it and threw it beside a stone: "It's just a grass ring, throw it away."

"You~" Xu Miaowei was angry, looked at the grass ring again, and continued walking with Zhu Biao.

"Recently, I made a list of soldiers, and there will be a reference for rewards in the future." Zhu Biao said.

Xu Miaowei nodded. She was very in favor of Zhu Biao on this matter: "Your Highness, you are much better than my father on this matter. My father's elm head couldn't understand this matter before."

"this matter!"

"Well, I also told my father to give some encouragement to the soldiers, but he just didn't want to, but he didn't expect His Highness to say that he agreed."

Xu Miaowei felt in her heart that His Highness the Crown Prince really has a solution, it seems that she has seen the right person.

Nanjing City, Qianqing Palace.

The memorials next to Lao Zhu were almost higher than his head, and they were still working hard, most of them were trivial matters.

He read it with great interest, and showed it to Empress Ma next to him from time to time: "Look, Yang Shen said that the people in Yangzhou even sent him extra food and vegetables."

"Look, you're so happy, look at your two sons are still in the north." Empress Ma pushed the needle through the insole vigorously, and plucked at the strands of her hair: "You are reading to me."

"Listen, girl, this is from the Suzhou government, saying that we helped those poor girls find jobs in Suzhou embroidery. Look... There is also a list attached here."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled from ear to ear, and read each word to Empress Ma: "Liu Yuniang, Zhao Lanhua, Li Cuixiang, Ma Jinlian... Sister, does this Ma Jinlian have three inches?"

Glancing at Empress Ma, Old Zhu said: "Yes, let's read the following for you. You said it would be great to walk around the world with big feet. Make a golden lotus, how small it is three inches."

Lao Zhu gestured with his fingers, Empress Ma gave him a blank look: "You are the emperor, how can you discuss Jinlian during the day."

"Okay, let's listen to my sister, let's talk at night."

"Don't tell me at night."

"Sister, you are too domineering."

Empress Ma remained silent, and continued to do her own sewing, which she still does herself up to now.

"Recently, Xu Da and Biao'er have been resting in Shaanxi for half a month, why haven't they sent us a letter yet?"

Lao Zhu put down the memorabilia and walked up and down the hall with his hands behind his back.

"Look at this." Empress Ma took a letter from the box next to it. The paper had been soaked with sweat many times and was still crumpled, "Remember this, it was marked last time. Look at you It’s almost ruined, and I’m writing to you, I guess you’ll have to see it next year.”

Old Zhu rubbed his nose, and said, "You bastard, you haven't given us too many letters, so you can only read them over and over again to see what's wrong. Why is Wang Baobao being punished by this kid?"

"Isn't there still Zhao Yunsheng?" Empress Ma added: "You, don't ask about Di'er. Is there anyone like you who is the father?"

Old Zhu was silent for a moment, and said: "We have so many sons, how can we care about them? Look, since Biao'er came out of Beijing, what has been written in this Ming Weekly?"

Empress Ma glanced at him and picked up the Ming Zhou Report: "Isn't that good? You are just too picky."

"We are the sons of heaven, you say that about us?" Old Zhu said with his eyes wide open.

"You are still Zhu Chongba in my eyes, why are you that Zhu Chongba?" Empress Ma bit off the thread and pulled up her clothes: "Here, try."

"Hey."

Lao Zhu walked over with a smile and opened his arms. Empress Ma smiled dotingly and came over to dress him.

"See if it fits or not."

"Our sister made it fit."

At this moment, Zhou Qingru entered the Qianqing Palace with two baskets of wild vegetables.

"Empress, this is the wild vegetable for Concubine Li Shu and the others today."

Old Zhu said: "You help your mother accept it, and don't come over for other things."

　Thank you for your support, thank you all.
