The stupid son of Chongba

Chapter 200 Chapter 199 Lan Yu leads Zhu Ju's horse and stirrups! What's the plan? !

Chapter 200 Chapter Lan Yu holds the stirrup for Zhu Ju's horse! What's the plan? !
"Master... what's going on?"

Long Wei looked at the woman in white and couldn't help asking,

"How could this be?"

Of course she wouldn't think that the thunder just now was a coincidence.

Thunderbolts as big as a bowl fell directly in front of them! If they were a few inches away, the master and disciple might have been killed by the thunderbolt!

'A warning from heaven' - such a thought involuntarily emerged in Long Wei's mind.

"…This is also the first time that I have encountered such a situation."

The woman in white had a complicated look on her face, covering her chest and saying,
"Could it be that the secret of this person is being concealed?"

"Or... does he have a big secret?"

"Or... too confused? Hiss - I'll regulate my breathing first."

As she was guessing, her face suddenly turned red and her breathing became disordered.

This is obviously a kind of "backlash".

There was no other way, she could only sit on the cushion and concentrate and regulate her breathing.

Long Wei also sat down and imitated her master in regulating her breathing and calming her mind.

After a while.

The woman in white exhaled a breath of foul air.

"Weiwei."

"Hmm? Master, go ahead."

"Don't mention what happened today to anyone. If you meet him next time, be polite and don't make enemies with him."

"Ah? This..."

"Did you hear what the master said?"

"...Yes, Master."

……

As the war approached, although the emperor had not officially announced his intention to launch a second northern expedition, both the court and the people could sense a sense of tension.

If the soldiers and horses are not moving, the grain and grass will go first.

Various pre-war preparations, such as dispatching troops, raising food and fodder, organizing military training, forging weapons and armor, etc., are all in full swing.

Finally, at the end of the first month after the beginning of the year, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty issued an edict, announcing a northern expedition to fight against the Yuan Dynasty!
Duke of Wei Xu Da was reinstated as expected and was appointed General of Conquering the Enemy, commanding the three armies and becoming the highest military commander of this war!

Duke of Cao Li Wenzhong was the left deputy marshal, and Duke of Song Feng Sheng was the right deputy marshal. They each led 50,000 troops and attacked in three directions!

Among the emperor's appointments, there is one unusual thing——

The Regent King Wu was appointed as the deputy marshal of the central army and accompanied Xu Da all the way to the expedition!
This time, a prince was brought along to join the Northern Expedition! And this prince was no ordinary prince, but the highly respected Wu Wang Zhu Ju!

As soon as the imperial edict was issued, there was discussion among the court and the people.

Zhu Ju, the person being talked about, was sleeping soundly in Chunhe Palace.

"Little orange, little orange?"

A voice came, and seeing that Zhu Ju had no intention of waking up, there was a hint of helplessness in the voice.

"You are all going to fight in the war, why are you still so leisurely?"

"I really don't feel the slightest bit of tension from him... It doesn't seem like he's going to a war, but rather, it's like he's going on a picnic."

Ma Xiuying held her forehead.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was standing by, kicked him without saying a word!
"Stinky boy!"

"Don't sleep anymore, wake up now!"

He shouted.

"Ouch!"

"What are you doing!"

Zhu Ju felt pain and opened his eyes instantly, only to see Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying staring at him blankly.

Zhu Ju: “…”

"What are you guys doing here?"

He climbed up from the rattan chair reluctantly and muttered,

"It ruined my sleep..."

Ma Xiuying curled her lips and said:
"Your father and I came here today to give you a gift!"

"When you first go to the battlefield, how can you not have a good weapon and a solid suit of armor?"

"Here, look—"

She pointed behind her.

But a set of shining armor was seen standing behind Zhu Yuanzhang.

"This is the Ming Guang armor your father wore when he was in battle. It is both light and tough, and is most suitable for fighting on horseback."

Ma Xiuying introduced it and hummed softly,
"Your father treasures this set of armor very much! When I asked him for it at first, he refused to give it to me!"

"After much persuasion, he finally agreed... Try it on and see if it fits you."

As she said that, she called Zhu Ju over and asked him to try it on.

"This is our lucky armor, the symbol of the emperor."

Zhu Yuanzhang muttered,

"If your mother hadn't begged me, I wouldn't have given it to you."

"You have obtained this set of imperial armor, so don't lose face! We are invincible when wearing it, so don't throw away your armor when the time comes!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Xiuying rolled her eyes at him.

"Pah, pah, pah! What unlucky and depressing words are you saying!"

"We haven't even set out yet, and you're already talking about abandoning your weapons and armor! I think you're going to get slapped in the face!"

Zhu Yuanzhang coughed dryly and shut his mouth obediently.

This girl has been very sensitive to "prophecies" recently, to the point where she cannot stand hearing any unlucky words.

There's no need to go against her at this time.

Swish!

As the couple was talking, Zhu Ju had already put on the Ming Guang armor and put on the helmet.

He turned around slightly, and the silver-white armor plates on his body began to vibrate.

"This armor is really light!"

Zhu Ju said with some surprise,

"Although this helmet is a little heavy, it's still acceptable."

"Not bad, not bad, it's a good set of armor!"

You can tell whether the armor is good or not by wearing it.

Although the outside is hard, the inner armor is soft and fits well. It is not uncomfortable to wear, but rather quite comfortable.

Wearing this thing makes me feel like a hero in a special effects anime, and it gives me more confidence and a sense of security.

"Stand up straight!"

"Don't hunch over like a monkey!"

"Come on, old man!"

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered.

Zhu Ju straightened his back in an instant, revealing an upright posture!

He had inherited the excellent genes of Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying, with a square face and handsome appearance. At this moment, he straightened his back, looking even more heroic, which made Ma Xiuying's eyes light up!
"Tsk tsk!"

"Our little orange has really grown up! So handsome!"

She praised,

"Zhongba, look at this kid. He used to be almost as tall as you were back then! In another two years, he will definitely be taller than you!"

The more I look at my son, the happier I am.

Zhu Yuanzhang also looked Zhu Ju up and down for a long time before nodding.

"Not bad! It has the flavor of our past!"

He nodded and said,

“The disciple should surpass the master!”

"After getting this set of imperial armor from me, you can't just look handsome, you have to also inspire my imperial spirit!"

"We'll make you the deputy commander of the central army, a position second only to Xu Da! Therefore, you must have the domineering attitude to look down on the common people, so as to shock the three armies! Let those arrogant soldiers and brave generals obey your orders wholeheartedly!"

"Do you understand?"

Zhu Ju's expression froze and he nodded.

"Don't worry, Dad. I still have that bit of kingly aura!"

He raised his head and said,

"Just wait for me to raise my three-foot-long sword and accomplish immortal feats!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but smile.

"You have also achieved immortality. Without saying anything more, you were able to kill two Yuan soldiers with your own hands. We all think you are amazing!"

Old Zhu joked as he handed over a red sword and said,

"Here, I'll give you the full set!"

"This sword is the precious sword that I used to lead the army. It can cut through iron like mud!"

"I'll lend it to you today. When you come back, you have to return it to me."

Zhu Ju rolled his eyes.

"You're so stingy. You're still lending it to me..."

He curled his lips and said,

"no need!"

"I already have a weapon that suits me!"

Having said that, he turned around and went back into the house. Just as Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying were puzzled, Zhu Ju had already walked out of the house holding the Chixiao sword.

Swish!
The Chixiao sword is unsheathed, and a cold light appears!
In an instant, the sword in Zhu Yuanzhang's hand seemed dull!

"you……"

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes fixed, and he said in surprise,
"Where did you get this sword?"

He clearly felt that when Zhu Ju picked up the sword, his aura was different!

As an emperor, he was more sensitive to unspeakable things like momentum and aura, so he immediately felt -

The sword in Zhu Ju's hand is extraordinary!
"Hehe! The secret cannot be revealed!"

Zhu Ju pretended to be mysterious.

"I got it by chance. This is the Chixiao Sword that Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty used to kill the white snake!"

Swish!

As he spoke, he performed his sword skills in the yard, making several beautiful sword moves!

"The Chixiao Sword of Emperor Gaozu of Han?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly stunned, raised his hand and said,
"Wait a moment!"

"Bring your sword here for us to see!"

Zhu Ju stopped at the right time and handed the Chixiao sword in his hand to Zhu Yuanzhang.

hum!
Zhu Yuanzhang held the sword upright and carefully observed the hilt and blade, his eyes full of wonder.

"Seven-star beads, Jiuhua jade...it really seems to be the sword worn by Emperor Gaozu of Han!"

He couldn't help but say,
"Chi Xiao is the sword of the emperor!"

"In the past, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty used this sword to kill the white snake and founded the Yanhan Dynasty! Now the Ming Dynasty also belongs to the Yanhuo, and it destroyed the Yuan Dynasty, which belonged to the Jinde. Isn't this a coincidence?"

"Stinky boy, where did you get this sword? Who gave it to you?"

Obviously, Zhu Yuanzhang was also very familiar with the "Five Virtues Reincarnation Theory" and believed in it without a doubt.

Zhu Ju shrugged.

"I picked it up on the roadside."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "..."

He glared and was about to explode, but Ma Xiuying grabbed his sleeve and said:

"That's enough! Everyone has their own secrets. It's normal for Xiaojuzi to have secrets. If he doesn't want to tell it, forget it."

"Is this sword...really Liu Bang's sword?"

"It's been more than a thousand years, and it hasn't rusted or rotted yet?"

She looked at the Chixiao Sword in Zhu Yuanzhang's hand and was also a little surprised.

More than a thousand years later, and still brand new!

This is enough to be called a miracle!

"It shouldn't be fake. We can feel the aura of this sword."

Zhu Yuanzhang gently stroked the sword, and was reluctant to let it go.
"Although we are thousands of years apart, we can still feel Liu Bang's heroism... The wind is rising and the clouds are flying, how can we find brave warriors to guard the four directions!"

Swish!
The sword blade turned, and Chi Xiao rolled up and down in Zhu Yuanzhang's hand, and the sword danced like a dragon and a snake!

"You responded!"

Zhu Ju crossed his arms and snorted,

"When did Dad become so weird..."

Zhu Yuanzhang glared.

"This is not called talking nonsense!"

He cursed,
"I do have feelings! You know nothing!"

"Here!"

Cursing, Lao Zhu threw Chi Xiao back to Zhu Ju.

Zhu Ju took the Chixiao Sword and put it back into the scabbard. Then he held the sword with both hands and pushed it to the ground.

Wearing Ming Guang Armor and holding the Chi Xiao Sword.

At this moment, Zhu Ju was like a young king who was good at fighting. Just by thrusting the pestle, he looked quite domineering!
“My son is so handsome!”

Ma Xiuying sincerely praised,
"You were much more handsome than Chongba back then!"

Zhu Yuanzhang curled his lips but did not refute.

He was still very satisfied with Zhu Ju's current look!
"call……"

"It's so hot, it's so hot, take it off quickly!"

"This armor is so hot!"

Zhu Ju was handsome for only three seconds, and soon he collapsed. He quickly got out of the Ming Guang armor, threw the Chi Xiao sword aside, and fell down on the rattan chair again.

"Jianqi, Jianqi!"

He shouted twice, and his personal maid Jianqi appeared from nowhere, quickly stepped forward and brought tea and fruit to Zhu Ju.

Zhu Yuanzhang: "..."

Ma Xiuying: “…”

"Little Orange, are you really ready to go to the battlefield?"

Seeing Zhu Ju enjoying himself, Ma Xiuying couldn't help but look a little worried and said,
"On the battlefield, no one will serve you like this, and you can't eat tribute fruit just by shouting."

"You can't possibly take your slave with you, can you?"

Jian Qi looked determined when he heard this.

"My Queen, I am not afraid of hardship!"

"Even on the battlefield, this slave can serve your highness!"

Hearing this, Zhu Ju quickly sat up from the rattan chair.

"Forget it, I don't need a servant to serve me."

He said seriously,

"Just because I'm enjoying myself now doesn't mean I can't suffer on the battlefield."

"I can't live like an ascetic at home just because I'm going to the war, right? That would be stupid!"

"I can enjoy myself when I should, and endure hardships when I should. I can bear it all! Mom, you don't have to worry about me!"

Ma Xiuying pursed her lips and finally nodded.

"Okay... Mom believes you."

Think about how Zhu Ju managed to survive such a hard life on Mount Sanqing, so there shouldn't be any problem for him to go to the Northern Frontier.

Besides, this kid has been fat and strong in the past two years, so he must be very tough!
"Oh, by the way, how much of the military rations I asked you to make last time have you arranged?"

Zhu Ju suddenly said,
“That thing is quite important to me.”

“The more the merrier!”

You don't need to bring too much of the Three Pure Waters. Anyway, you have already mastered the method of offering sacrifices. Master said that you have reached some level in practicing the Ziwei Water Method, and you can offer sacrifices directly on the spot when the time comes.

However, the Wuqi Pills cannot be made with local materials. It involves many precious Chinese medicinal materials and the preparation process is also very complicated. It cannot be made without consuming huge amounts of manpower, material resources and time.

So, after he returned to the palace, he directly gave the recipe to my mother and asked her to use the power of the royal family to produce it in large quantities.

"That pill of yours is too expensive."

Ma Xiuying put her hands on her hips and said,

"I almost spent all my own money, tens of thousands of taels of silver, to make just over 10,000 of them."

"All told, one costs three or four taels of silver. That's really expensive!"

Zhu Ju smiled.

Three or four taels of silver for one...that's indeed a high price.

You know, if three taels of silver were converted into rice and wheat, it would be enough to buy a thousand kilograms of rice!
This is enough to feed an army of more than a thousand people! However, considering the special value of this thing... it's okay if it's a little more expensive!

"Thank you, mother!"

"When I get the spoils on the battlefield, I will come back to give mother the money she earned!"

Zhu Ju said with a grin.

"You are my son. When have you ever seen a mother spend money on her and need to pay it back?"

Ma Xiuying responded domineeringly,
"Mom, you don't need to pay me back. As long as you come back safely, that will be the greatest reward for me!"

"Do you understand? Safety first, safety first!"

Zhu Ju nodded like a chick pecking at rice, peeled a slice of orange very diligently, and put it to Ma Xiuying's mouth.

"Mom, eat oranges."

"Sweet."

Ma Xiuying put the orange into her mouth, chewed it twice, and suddenly said:

"Oh, I'm confused."

"Why haven't Miaoyun and Meirong gotten pregnant yet?"

"You and Miaoyun have been married for such a long time, not to mention Meirong and Biaoer, they have been married even longer than you."

"Why are neither of them pregnant? Is there something wrong with the feng shui of this palace?"

Zhu Ju: “…”

He doesn't want to talk about this!

At the beginning, I was still full of confidence, thinking that it was just a matter of giving birth to a baby! I was so energetic, Miaoyun was also in good health, and my period was very regular, so giving birth to a baby shouldn't be a piece of cake, right?

As a result, until now... there has been no movement at all.

He almost started to wonder if there was something wrong with him! The two families even held a seminar to discuss why having a baby was so difficult.

Finally came to the conclusion – I don’t know!

The kid just doesn’t want to come, what can you do?
"Mom... from a certain perspective, not having a baby for the time being is a good thing."

Zhu Ju coughed dryly and said,
"If Miaoyun is really pregnant, I will definitely be worried and won't be able to concentrate on fighting."

"It's better to be like this now. I can go into battle easily."

Ma Xiuying rolled her eyes.

"certainly not!"

"With your reckless personality, you should find someone to care about, so that you can be calm and steady in doing things and not dare to act recklessly!"

"Hey! But it's no use saying this now... When you come back, you are not allowed to play around anymore. Just concentrate on having children! Do you hear me?!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ju could only nod helplessly.

It seems that my brother and I, a pair of brothers in distress, will have to get together again to discuss our experiences...

"Neither of them is up to the task."

Zhu Yuanzhang muttered something,
"It's so hard for us to have a grandson... It seems we have to rely on the second, third, and fourth brothers..."

Swish!
"no!"

Ma Xiuying ordered,

"The eldest grandson of the Zhu family can only come out of Meirong's belly, or Miaoyun's belly!"

"Let the other stomachs wait!"

Zhu Yuanzhang: "..."

Zhu Ju: “…”

What a domineering mother!
"Okay, okay, let's just say that. We see that Biao'er is in much better health now. There is a great hope for him."

Zhu Yuanzhang hugged Ma Xiuying and said with a smile,

"Let's lighten his burden later and let him concentrate on giving birth to our Ming Dynasty's eldest grandson. We won't feel at ease until this grandson is born."

Having a legitimate grandson or not makes a big difference to Zhu Yuanzhang!
Once the eldest grandson is born, the Ming Dynasty can at least be passed down for three generations! In this way, when he closes his eyes, he can see that his grandson has grown up and become the crown prince of the Ming Empire...

He has to see this orderly inheritance before he can close his eyes in peace!
"Yeah, I'm optimistic about Meirong too."

Ma Xiuying nodded and said,

"I was originally more optimistic about Miaoyun, but this girl's belly is not doing well."

"Now that Little Orange is going to go on another expedition, there is absolutely no chance... It will take at least half a year."

"Let her rest for now. I'll talk to Meirong more later."

Zhu Ju couldn't help but laugh secretly when he heard this.

The pressure on my eldest brother and his wife has increased even more now!

"What are you laughing at, little brat!"

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly spat,
"We are about to go to war. Have you finished writing your speech for the rally?"

"Show it to us. Don't let everyone be silent when you read it. That would be too damaging to morale!"

The oath-taking ceremony is very important. It is the best program to inspire soldiers’ fighting passion before the war!

Well done, combat effectiveness increased dramatically!
If it fails, then the troops will look disgraced. How can they fight the war well?

"Almost there, but I can't show you."

Zhu Ju raised his head and said,
"When the time comes, I will have my own way! You don't have to worry about this!"

"I promise that I can fill the soldiers with passion and turn them all into howling wolves!"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly.

"...Okay, it's better to do this. Don't cause any trouble for me."

Old Zhu waved his hand and said,

"You should take a good rest for a few days, gather your strength, and prepare for the battle!"

"gone!"

Ma Xiuying peeled a whole orange for Zhu Ju at some point and put it directly into his mouth.

"Enjoy whatever you want to enjoy these days."

"When you are on the battlefield, it will be hard work... Pay attention to sun protection and nutrition, don't come back as a dark and skinny boy."

Zhu Ju bit into the orange with a crunch, and the sweet juice burst in his mouth.

"I know, I know."

"go Go."

He waved.

Don’t get tanned... This old lady thinks she’s going on a picnic!
Watching the two elders walking away, Zhu Ju sat on the rattan chair again and closed his eyes to rest.

At this moment, a voice was heard.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince has a message for you to come over."

Swish.

Zhu Ju opened his eyes again.

"What did you call me for, brother?"

Would he be nagging him again like his parents did?

Thinking in his mind, he still stood up.

No matter what the matter is, he still has to give face to his elder brother.

……

East Palace.

"Brother, are you looking for me?"

"My sister-in-law is here too. I've met her."

Zhu Ju walked into the inner courtyard of the Eastern Palace carelessly, and saw Zhu Biao and his wife sitting on chairs, with a slightly burly middle-aged man next to them.

Naturally, he would not take the initiative to say hello to people he doesn't know, after all, that's his identity.

When ordinary people meet him, they have to bow and introduce themselves.

"Sixth Uncle is here."

"Come, sit down, sit down. Someone, bring Uncle Six a fruit plate."

Chang Meirong knew that Zhu Ju loved to eat fruits, so she immediately gave the instructions with a bright smile.

In a moment, the fruit plate was served.

Zhu Ju didn't hesitate and took two bites.

"Little Orange, we're about to go to war. Have you prepared everything you need?"

Zhu Biao laughed and said,

"Have you arranged the armor, weapons, and horses?"

Zhu Ju nodded.

"My father just came to give me some armor. It's the Mingguang armor he wore before. It's pretty good."

He said without hesitation,

"I have weapons, but I haven't prepared war horses yet. But Old Xu will definitely have them."

When Zhu Biao heard this, his eyes lit up slightly.

"Uncle Xu has no shortage of war horses, but he definitely doesn't have any horses with extraordinary endurance."

He smiled and said,
"It just so happens that I have a great horse here, which just arrived today."

Zhu Ju laughed.

"What? From what Big Brother said, you want to send me off?"

"That's a great feeling! Haha..."

Hua Mulan bought a horse in the East Market and a saddle in the West Market.

It’s not so good for me, as all my equipment depends on my relatives to send me!
"I didn't send you there, but your uncle brought you there."

Zhu Biao pointed to the burly man with a heroic look on his face and said with a smile,
"Let me introduce him to you. He is my father-in-law's brother-in-law. His name is Lan Yu."

Swish!
Lan Yu suddenly stood up, bowed and said:

"General Lan Yu greets His Majesty the King of Wu!"

Zhu Ju raised his eyebrows.

"Oh, you are Lan Yu!"

He suddenly said.

This guy died a miserable death. He was skinned and stuffed with straw by his father. Tens of thousands of people died because of his involvement.

However, this old guy's behavior is indeed eccentric. Not to mention his father, even with my own temper, if I met someone like Lan Yu, I would chop him up!

Of course, it cannot be denied that Lan Yu is indeed a good fighter and the sharpest sword in the Ming Dynasty after Chang Yuchun!
"Ok?"

Lan Yu was a little surprised and said,

"Your Highness the King of Wu knows this general?"

Zhu Ju waved his hand.

"I know, I know. You are quite brave."

He said,

"Please sit down, sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Lan Yu responded and sat down.

At this moment, he still looked quite well-behaved, even a little reserved.

After all, Zhu Ju had a bad reputation, so it was only natural for him to be humble in front of such a powerful prince.

"I have a Ferghana horse, a purebred thousand-mile horse from the Western Regions."

Lan Yu smiled and said,

"As long as the fodder is adequate, traveling a thousand miles a day and eight hundred miles a night is no exaggeration!"

"I will bring him here right away and show him to Your Highness."

As he spoke, he stood up and walked towards the backyard. In a moment, he brought over a chestnut horse.

The horse moved its hooves restlessly, as if it was wary of this unfamiliar environment.

"Your Highness, please look!"

Lan Yu said like offering a treasure,
"This horse is reddish red all over, and when it sweats, it will shed light red sweat, so it is called a sweat-blood horse."

"This pure-blooded Arabian horse has amazing endurance and is not bad at speed! The only drawback is that it requires extremely fine fodder, which most people cannot afford. But for Your Highness, this is not a problem at all!"

Zhu Ju nodded and patted the horse gently.

He couldn't help but admire the elastic touch.

"What a nice horse!"

"I feel like your horse is even better than Red Hare, hahahaha!"

Although Zhu Ju is not a Bole, he has been riding horses for so long that he can still tell the quality of horses.

I don’t know if this Arabian horse in front of me can run a thousand miles, but it is indeed a top-quality horse!
"Your Highness, why don't you ride it and take a ride?"

Lan Yu smiled and said,

"I will hold the horse and stirrup for you."

"Hahahaha... How can I let General Lan hold the stirrups for me?"

Zhu Ju burst into laughter. Although he said so, his body did not hesitate and he directly climbed onto the Ferghana horse!
Ta-da, ta-da!
Strangely enough, the Arabian horse seemed to know that the man on its back was not easy to mess with, and it lost its previous restlessness. Instead, it ran obediently under Lan Yu's guidance.

Whoosh!

Zhu Ju, with the whip in his hand waving, rode around twice in the empty East Palace.

In the first lap, Lan Yu was still leading the way, walking slowly. By the second lap, he was already familiar with the rhythm and galloped on his horse!

"drive!"

"drive!"

"Good horse, good horse! Hahaha..."

This horse is like the carriage in later generations, and is a man’s second wife.

Zhu Ju rode twice and enjoyed it very much. He rode the horse to the three people and refused to get off.

"This beast was very unruly in my hands, but it was so docile under your Highness' crotch!"

Lan Yu patted the horse's buttocks and scolded with a smile,

"It seems that it is indeed spiritual. When it saw the true king, it surrendered obediently."

He is kissing up to others and also flattering others.

Zhu Ju was quite pleased with what he heard, so he got off his horse, clapped his hands, and said:

"This is indeed a rare and rare steed!"

"I want this horse! I won't take advantage of you. I'll pay double what you paid for it!"

Lan Yu smiled when he heard this.

"Your Highness, what are you talking about?"

"If you like it, just ride it away. Why talk about money? It's so tacky."

"I, Lan Yu, am not a stingy person! Today, Your Highness has a connection with this creature. I don't want any money for it. I will give it to you completely as a gift!"

Zhu Ju looked at Zhu Biao.

Zhu Biao also smiled and said:
"Little Orange, we are all family. Since your uncle says so, just ride away!"

"We are family, so we don't care about money."

Zhu Ju grinned.

"No merit, no reward. If you don't want the money, then I don't want the horse either."

He waved his hand.

"Take it away, take it away."

If you don't ask for money, then you ask for favors.

Is it so easy to get Zhu Ju's favor?

Although this thousand-mile horse is precious, it is not impossible for me to get it. Why should I fall into his trap?

Although this trap was set by the eldest brother, it should not cause any harm to me, but the other party is Lan Yu after all, so I'd better be cautious.

"Uh, this..."

Lan Yu was slightly stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment.

He looked at Zhu Biao, with a look of help in his eyes.

Zhu Biao's eyes dodged slightly, avoiding Lan Yu's gaze, but turned to meet Chang Meirong's gaze.

Zhu Biao could not avoid his wife's pleading gaze, and for a moment he looked a little conflicted.

“This fruit is good.”

When the three of them exchanged glances, Zhu Ju had already picked up two fruits and stood up and said,
"Brother, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

"Sister-in-law, General Lan, see you later!"

After saying this, he took the fruit and was about to leave.

"Eh!"

Chang Meirong suddenly became anxious and hurried forward to stop Zhu Ju, saying,
"Why is Sixth Uncle in such a hurry to leave?"

"You are about to go to war, and I won't see you for many months."

"Sit a little longer, sit a little longer..."

Hearing her say this, Zhu Ju smiled and did not force to leave. Instead, he sat down again, chewing the fruit, looking calm and relaxed.

He was in no hurry anyway.

Whoever is anxious should speak up! If you don't show me what you have in mind, I won't express my opinion.
