Chapter 43 Let’s go to the city (2)
Zhu Di's carriage stopped, and the three brothers Zhu Gaochi arrived.
"father!"
"mother!"
Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui brothers were outside the carriage and couldn't wait to call.
"My son, Gao Xu, take the second and third brothers to welcome the father and mother!" Zhu Gaoxu pulled the two brothers, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed loudly.
The curtain of the carriage was opened in a corner, revealing Zhu Di's smile, "Get up!"
The familiar voice made the three brothers happy, but as soon as they looked up, they were stunned again.
The father in front of him was not as full of energy and as if he was always looking at him.
"Dad!" Zhu Gaoxu could no longer help, and rushed over and choked, "Why are you so thin?"
"Dad!" Zhu Gaosui also rushed over, "What's wrong with you? Are you sick?"
Zhu Di's cheeks were thin, and the originally majestic man was already a little thin. He leaned in the carriage with a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of fatigue. His face was pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
"It's okay!" Zhu Di spoke lightly, his voice not as loud and powerful as before.
He looked at his three sons and his eyes swept through their faces one by one. The concern and sadness in the eyes of the second and third brothers made him feel relieved. After all, he was his own son and he always had himself in his heart.
Look at the boss Zhu Gaoxu again. Although there was sadness and concern in his eyes, he had to suppress it and pretend to be steady.
"Boss, I'm more mature!"
He sighed in his heart and nodded slightly at Zhu Gaochi, "Boss, thank you for your hard work in the capital!"
"Dad!" Zhu Gaochi's voice seemed to be blocked, and it looked hoarse.
Finally, he couldn't hold back and asked with a sob, "I knew you were sick, but I didn't know you were so sick. You see you are thin, why didn't you write to your son!"
"Hold it back!" Zhu Di suddenly became angry and shouted in a low voice, "You are the prince, how are you stinging in front of so many people?!"
Zhu Gaochi rubbed his eyes, "Dad taught me a lesson!"
Zhu Di stretched out his thin hand and got out of the carriage. He was in ordinary clothes, without any patterns, nor did he wear any jade, ordinary.
"I don't need you to help me!"
When Zhu Di saw that his sons would come forward to support him, he waved his hand suddenly, "Go to see your mother, she misses you at home and she burst into tears!"
At this time, the three brothers looked into the carriage.
The woman who was looking at them with tears in her eyes, who else could she be if she wasn't their mother?
"Mom!" Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui rushed over at the same time, "I miss you!"
The mother and son cried in tears. Zhu Gaochi saluted solemnly afterwards, and then took the whip from the groom's hand and stood beside the carriage.
~~~
Zhu Di slowly moved forward, looking around with his eyes constantly, a familiar and unfamiliar scenery.
He walked very slowly, his eyes half open, and when he glanced at the soldiers around Xieguanting, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
At this time, the Duke of Wei, Xu Huizu, stepped forward and kowtowed, "My minister Xu Huizu, welcome the King of Yan for thousands of years..."
"Stop this!" Zhu Di grabbed the other party and said, "Call me?"
"Thousands of years, rites..."
"What kind of rituals do you do with your own family? You are my brother-in-law. Do you want me to be kowtow later?" Zhu Di said with a smile.
"I dare not!" Xu Huizu said respectfully.
"Are you so polite, believe it or not, I will turn around immediately. Let's see how you handle the job?" Zhu Di said with a smile.
Suddenly, Xu Huizu gave half of his salute and could not continue.
"You are so boring!" Zhu Di patted the other person on the shoulder, "Always have a stern face, as if someone owes you two hundred yuan to pay!" As he said, he laughed, "You are my brother-in-law! When you see me, you can't ask some questions about your parents?"
"Qiansui, I have lost a lot of weight!" After holding it in for a long time, Xu Huizu said.
"Haha!" Zhu Di smiled, suddenly leaned closer, and whispered, "Tell you, when spring was in full swing, I almost died!"
As he said that, he nodded and added, "Really, it's all right to wear old clothes at home!"
Xu Huizu was shocked, "I have never heard of this!"
"Hey, brother-in-law!" Zhu Di suddenly put his hands in his sleeves and asked, "You said, if I really die, would you take my three sons back to Peking to attend the funeral?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Huizu once again showed an iconic and silent smile.
"Why are you laughing at? If I were really dead at that time, you, as an uncle, would have to take on a big house!" Zhu Di said with his eyebrows moving and he said.
Xu Huizu smiled again, with a smile in his tone, but he was no longer so serious and no longer so official. "Among the three sons of the Fourth Master, others say that the second child looks like you and is unparalleled in courage! My father seems that the prince is still the one who looks like you the most!"
Zhu Di became interested and smiled, "How do you say this?"
Xu Huizu smiled again, "This spirit of harming people and burying people is the same!"
"Ha, that is, I'm too lazy to talk about it outsiders!" Zhu Di laughed.
"Outsiders don't know that the Fourth Master will not lose his skills immediately, and he will not forgive others!" Xu Huizu smiled.
"Look, how good it is to speak like this!" Zhu Di held his hands in his arms and turned his head slightly, "It's obvious that you have to keep a distance and be so distant? You are here to pick me up, not to catch me, who will show me like this?" As he said that, he raised his foot slightly, "I really want to kick you!"
Xu Huizu smiled and turned sideways, not telling each other.
"Hey, where is the increase in life?" Zhu Di suddenly looked around and continued to ask.
"Don't you know yet?" Xu Huizu thought about it and spoke slowly, "The waiter went to Yunnan to serve in the army!"
"Can he go to the army with such a temperament? Ha!" Zhu Di smiled, "He has been..."
As he said that, he couldn't continue because he understood.
The eldest brother-in-law in front of me was always unreliable. The only brother-in-law who was close to me was sent to the emperor.
In recent years, the reason why King Yan Zhu Di was able to quickly know the trends in the capital.
In addition to those people he secretly bribed, Xu Zengshou helped the most.
Now that Xu Zengshou has gone to Yunnan, it is too late for the fence-bearing men in the capital to separate him from him, and he will not be able to join him, the unlucky prince.
Suddenly, Zhu Di no longer had the interest in chatting and laughing.
"After entering the city, will I enter the palace first?" Zhu Di asked.
Xu Huizu said, "The emperor means to rest in the vassal residence first, and keep it for a few days. If you are tired, the emperor will give you a banquet in the Jinshen Hall!"
Zhu Di nodded, "Old man...what does the Supreme Emperor mean?"
"The Supreme Emperor, I have nothing to say!" Xu Huizu whispered.
"Didn't you say let me go to the palace to meet?" Zhu Di's tone suddenly became urgent.
Xu Huizu shook his head, "Maybe there will be an order in the future, but I haven't heard it now!"
Zhu Di held his hands in his sleeves and grabbed them together with force.
"Go to the back and see your sister!" Zhu Di said with a smile, "Don't just talk to me!"
"Yes!" Xu Huizu responded and slowly retreated.
Zhu Di turned around and looked at the magnificent city wall in his sight. The smile on his face disappeared. His sharp eyes were full of coldness.

The frame, slowly move forward and head towards the inner city.
The connection to the official pavilion is getting farther and farther away.
Zhu Gaochi walked with a horse whip in his hand and pulled the reins. Seeing that Zhu Di's eyes were still looking at the direction he came, he asked, "Dad, what are you looking at?"
Zhu Di looked at the Xieguanting who was gradually moving away, "The last time I came to the capital, I also entered here!"
"That time, I took the most elite iron armored guards under our Yan Fan!"
"That time, Ping Baoer picked me up. I'm still waiting for your seventeenth uncle here! Ha, that kid is much more ostentatious than me. He brings the most fierce cavalry of the three guards of Duoyan, and is full of energy!"
"That was your emperor's grandfather's birthday!"
Zhu Gaochi looked ahead and whispered, "My son knows that when you come to the capital, not only the old man's birthday, but also the crown prince's enthronement!"
Zhu Di smiled, a little disdainful, "Last time, your father was so glorious, but this time he was like a defeated general and a lost dog!"
"But he was the crown prince last time, and this time he was the emperor! Damn!"
"Dad!" Zhu Gaochi turned his head, looked at Zhu Di's eyes, and smiled, "You have taught your son before that a real man can bend and stretch, and a temporary grievance is nothing." As he said, he looked at the Daming Sect in his sight, "You have also said that who has not encountered any obstacles in his life?"
"My son's words are very consistent with my heart!" Zhu Di laughed.
