Zhu Xu just froze for a moment, then strode forward, and said with an innocent smile, "Brother Xinwang is also here." ” Zhu Youxiao and Empress Zhang had no way to guess Zhu Xu's participation in that decisive battle, and Zhu Youzhen didn't know, he had always had a cold expression, looking at Zhu Xu and just nodding slightly.
Zhu Xu secretly exhaled and turned her head to look inside, Empress Zhang was bending down to put Xiao Yongning in the shaker, and Zhu Youxiao behind her was sitting in a wheelchair and was pushed out by Huan'er.
Zhu Youzhen hurriedly stood up, bowed slightly and said, "Brother has seen the imperial brother." ” Zhu Youxiao's face was much better, he waved his hand at Zhu Youzhen, and said, "It's all my own family, don't be so polite." ” "Brother Huang is right!"
Zhu Xu sat on the stool, poured water quickly, and then handed it to Zhu Youxiao and said, "Brother Huang, drink water." ” Zhu Youxiao laughed, took the cup and said to the two: "Sit down, just like last year, our family will have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner." ” Empress Zhang also came over and sat down, and said to Huan'er: "Huan'er, let's serve the food."
Then he smiled at Zhu Xu and Zhu Youzhen: "Don't be restrained, just relax." ” Zhu Xu glanced at Zhu Youzhen on the side, and also straightened up, with a serious expression, and looked at the desktop with his eyes lowered.
The corners of Empress Zhang's mouth twitched, and she secretly gave Zhu Xu a warning look.
Zhu Xu raised his head and smiled.
Zhu Youxiao sat in a wheelchair and looked at the two brothers in front of him.
He used to think that his fifth brother Zhu Youzhen, who was cautious and respectful, had a diligent personality, and would inevitably be an outstanding vassal king in the future, and he would be famous in history.
It's just that now it seems that this fifth brother is also afraid that he is also forbearant and has great ambitions.
The other is the sixth brother, Zhu Youxu, that is, Zhu Xu.
He has always been unable to see through this younger brother, he couldn't see through it when he was very young, and now he can't see through it.
'Why am I showing up today?'
’ Zhu Youxiao smiled on his face, looked at Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, and said, "Fifth brother, what have you been busy in the palace recently?"
” Zhu Youzhen's face changed slightly, he glanced at Zhu Youxiao, and said after considering the wording: "Back to the imperial brother, the younger brother closed the palace to introspect and never went out." ” Zhu Youxiao originally asked casually, but after listening to Zhu Youzhen's answer, he glanced at him, turned to Zhu Xu again, and said with a smile: "What about you, sixth brother, you rarely go to me?"
” Zhu Xu straightened his waist and said without thinking: "Eat, sleep, and count the silver." ” Empress Zhang glanced at Zhu Youxiao, glared at Zhu Xu with a straight face, and said, "Good student said." ” Zhu Xu immediately said obediently: "Back to the emperor's words, the courtiers study behind closed doors, the wisdom of the sages, and the wisdom of the ancients." ” Empress Zhang frowned, and secretly gave Zhu Xu a warning look.
Zhu Youxiao listened to Zhu Xu's words, his eyes flashed with a strange color, his eyes searched back and forth between Zhu Xu and Zhu Youzhen, and after a long time, he turned to Zhu Youzhen again, smiled and said with relief: "Fifth brother, rest assured, between my brothers, brothers, friends and brothers, there is no suspicion, relax." ” Although he had explained it in front of Zhu Youxiao before, Zhu Youzhen still felt cold in his heart when he listened to Zhu Youxiao's words, and reluctantly said: "Yes, the words of the imperial brother, the younger brother should keep it in mind." ” Zhu Youxiao smiled and nodded, and glanced at Empress Zhang, who picked up the chopsticks and said, "Okay, then let's start our family banquet." ” waited for Zhu Youxiao to clip the first chopsticks, and Zhu Xu and Zhu Youzhen began to move the chopsticks.
Zhu Youxiao seemed to be very interested, and talked about cross talk with Queen Zhang again, Zhu Xu, the audience, occasionally applauded, Zhu Youzhen was completely a spectator, and seemed absent-minded.
Zhu Xu gags, shifts, and a meal, he also vaguely understood that Zhu Youxiao was suspicious of him and Zhu Youzhen, but this suspicion or possible threat was insignificant, and it was enough for Zhu Youxiao to think too much about the two of them or do anything.
Full of wine and food, Zhu Youxiao's spirit couldn't keep up, and after gossiping for a while, Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhu Xu with a smile and said, "King Hui, send a letter to the king for me." ” The previous sixth brother, the fifth brother, King Hui and King Xin after drinking, such a change made Zhu Xu and Zhu Youxiao both vigilant.
Zhu Xu's smile remained unchanged, and he got up and looked at Zhu Youzhen and said, "Brother Xinwang, I'll send you."
"In fact, Zhu Xu's Jinghuan Palace is not closer than Zhu Youzhen's Xinwang Palace.
At the family banquet, Queen Zhang and Zhu Xu couldn't drink it, and only Zhu Youxiao and Zhu Youzhen drank a few glasses, but they were all superficial.
Zhu Youzhen's expression was calm, he stood up and said to Zhu Youxiao respectfully: "Brother retired." ” Zhu Xu was in a bleak mood, although this meal was not pure, but he was finally not so lonely, he walked side by side with Zhu Youzhen outside the Kunning Palace with his hands behind his back and a slight red face.
Zhu Youzhen's face was expressionless, silent, and the worry between his eyebrows did not dissipate.
Two attendants lit lanterns, leading the two not far away.
Zhu Youzhen had something in his heart, Zhu Xu was weak-hearted, and the two of them were speechless all the way, until they were about to leave Kunning Palace, Zhu Youzhen suddenly stopped, looked at Zhu Xu and said, "Sixth brother, can I participate in your business?"
” Zhu Xu was stunned, his request to Zhu Youzhen was too sudden, and he was caught off guard, and couldn't help but look at him stunned.
Zhu Xu was stunned, Zhu Youzhen smiled stiffly on his face, and said, "If you can't forget it, it's okay, I'll go first." ” Zhu Xu quickly reacted and hurriedly said: "Yes, what business does Brother Xinwang want to do, I'll go to Brother Xinwang Zhang Luo." ” Zhu Youzhen was also on a whim, and he was also stunned when he heard the words, and thought for a while before saying, "How about I also open a chamber of commerce?"
” At this time, Zhu Xu also roughly figured out Zhu Youzhen's thoughts, just to let Zhu Youxiao see that he had other things to do and had no bad intentions.
Looking at Zhu Youzhen, Zhu Xu said, "What kind of business does Brother Wang want to do?"
” Although Zhu Youzhen investigated Zhu Xu's business, he didn't know much about the operation, profit, etc., and said after a while: "I heard that it is more profitable to dump goods from south to north, sixth brother, do you think it's okay?"
” "Okay, no problem!"
Zhu Xu looked like he had a big bag, so he almost patted his chest and said as if he was reassuring: "Brother Xinwang, don't worry, I don't have any other skills, I'm good at making money."
After the year, I will go to my uncle's to get a few road guides, and then take you, no, let the chief butler in the palace follow me on a trip, it won't be long before there will be at least 100,000 taels of silver harvest every year!
” "One hundred thousand taels!"
Zhu Youzhen was very shocked in his heart, looked at Zhu Xu and said, "There are really so many?"
” Zhu Xu laughed and said, "Brother Xinwang rarely goes out of the palace, I don't know that the world's big businessmen and rich people are humble, and they are all modest when they have a large family property, more than one million dollars, and we make small profits." ” Zhu Youzhen listened to Zhu Xu's words, hesitated and struggled on his face, hesitated for a while before he calmed down, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I will come to the sixth brother after that year, and ask the sixth brother to help me plan." ” "Brother Xinwang, don't worry!"
Zhu Xu said with his hands behind his back and his chest straight.
