My father Yongle, building a five-good family

Chapter 6 Aren’t you repaying kindness with enmity?
Outside Wenhua Hall.

Zhu Gaochi led Zhu Gaoyu and walked out slowly.

Zhu Yunwen stood aside and tested Zhu Gaochi subtly:

"I've heard that my cousin is good at both civil and military affairs. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely ask for his advice."

When Zhu Gaochi heard this, he immediately smiled and said:
"How dare I compare myself with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? His Royal Highness was personally taught by His Majesty, and he is far superior to us in both literary talent and martial arts."

Zhu Yunwen glanced at Zhu Gaochi's slightly bloated body and the beads of sweat on his forehead, but didn't say anything else.

As for the ability to govern the country, Zhu Yunwen not only had the personal instruction of his grandfather, the emperor, but also had the top think tank of the Ming Dynasty to teach him.

No matter how modest Zhu Yunwen was, he did not think that he was worse than Zhu Gaochi, who grew up in the barren land of Peking.

This is not arrogance, but confidence in the emperor's vision.

As for martial arts...

Zhu Yunwen may be slightly inferior to Zhu Gaoxu and others, but he is more than capable than Zhu Gaochi.

After thinking about it, the smile on Zhu Yunwen's face brightened a little.

It was not until he walked out of the Qianqing Palace that Zhu Yunwen's figure disappeared around the corner.

Zhu Gaoxu snorted coldly:
"Who is he guarding against? He really thinks we are fools, afraid that we will overshadow him. He is already the crown prince, yet he is still trying to find out..."

Zhu Gaoxu started to ramble again: "If you want to talk about getting up, although I am not very good at studying, but when it comes to archery and horse riding, I think I am not worse than him..."

Zhu Gaoxu still had this confidence.

While he followed the Prince of Yan, galloping on horseback across the grasslands, heading straight for the Black Ridge to capture the foreign general Asili and others, Zhu Yunwen only stayed in the Wenhua Hall, reading classics such as the "Zhihuzheya" with his teachers.

Zhu Gaoyu listened to this and that and started to instigate again:
"Second brother, you are so powerful, can you beat the crown prince down? Are you bragging?"

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at Zhu Gaoyu coldly, "Don't try to provoke me! Do you think I'm really an idiot? With the level of the crown prince... I can do it with just one hand..."

Before he could finish, the faces of the people around him changed.

Zhu Gaosui wanted to cover Zhu Gaoxu's mouth.

My second brother is good in everything except that he has a big mouth!
Whatever you say, you just throw it out there.

It would be fine if it was in Beiping City, but now in Yingtian, if you still want to say this, it won’t work even if your father is the King of Yan!

Zhu Gaochi glanced at the second brother quietly.

He also said that he had not been provoked.

As for the second brother's mind and all his features added together, maybe he is not as smart as the fourth brother.

Zhu Gaoyu sighed and patted his second brother's thigh:

"Second brother, you are still too young."

Zhu Laoer looked at Zhu Gaoyu with deep eyes, as if he was considering how to give this arrogant brat a beating.

This kid's words are really infuriating!
But then again, Zhu Gaoxu looked at Zhu Gaoyu, as if he had thought of something, and suddenly a mocking smile appeared on his face:

"But then again, Fourth Brother's belly seems to be a little bigger than before, and his clothes are tight. I wonder if this body shape will be a hindrance when he practices martial arts in the future..."

Zhu Gaoyu stopped laughing.

He looked as if he had been struck by lightning.

My second brother actually said that he is fat!
Say he is fat!!

Zhu Gaoyu touched his round belly, and with a trace of final stubbornness, he spoke firmly:
"Children's fatness is not called fatness!"

Zhu Gaoxu snorted, "I've never seen a kid as honest as you..."

When Zhu Gaoyu heard this, he lowered his head in despair.

It turns out...it turns out that he has become a little fat boy?
Zhu Gaochi felt a little distressed when he saw that Zhu Gaoyu looked distracted:
"How can this person be fat? This person is just the right amount of fat."

So... this is still fat!
After hearing this, Zhu Gaoyu finally seemed to have made up his mind and spoke:

"Brother, let's lose weight together!"

The words that were about to come out of Zhu Gaochi's mouth were suddenly stuck.

I speak for you, but you say you want to help me lose weight?!
This is clearly repaying kindness with enmity!

After hearing Zhu Gaoyu's words and seeing the boss's slightly distorted expression, Zhu Gaoxu felt as refreshed as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him in the hottest days of summer.

His adolescent duck voice suddenly burst into a cackle.

Zhu Gaosui looked at this and that, and cautiously did not speak.

As expected, the next moment, Zhu Gaoyu's heart-wrenching words came out:

"Big brother, third brother, listen, there seems to be a duck quacking nearby."

Zhu Gaoxu's laughter stopped abruptly. He glared at Lao Si and grabbed his ear.

Zhu Gaoyu was a delicate man, and he immediately hugged his elder brother's legs and began to howl:

"It hurts, it hurts! Big brother! The second one is bullying me!"

Hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu became even angrier.

Why is it that when you call the eldest brother you are the big brother, but when you call yourself, you become the second in command? !

……

On the way back, Zhu Gaoyu was still a little unhappy, his eyebrows were drooping, and he looked a little listless.

Little Jixiang stood beside Zhu Gaoyu, one step behind him. Seeing the young master's expression, he cautiously leaned over and said:
"Your Highness, what's wrong? Are you unhappy? Are you tired of studying? How about I take you to buy some crickets and make some straw cages so we can have some cricket fighting for fun?"

Zhu Gaoyu waved his hand with some sadness, looking quite unmoved:

"What's the point of fighting crickets? Do I look like someone who would lose his ambition to playing with things?"

After saying this, Zhu Gaoyu held his cheek and sighed deeply:
"Xiao Jixiang, tell me... am I really fat?"

Xiao Jixiang followed Zhu Gaoyu's words and fixed his eyes on his chubby arms and slightly protruding belly.

He considered it again and again, raised his thumb, and said tactfully:

"Your Highness is a very blessed man."

Zhu Gaoyu: “…”

He carefully pinched the layers of flesh on his belly. Soon, Zhu Gaoyu suddenly thought of something and started laughing again:
"They say that fat people have great potential, and I think I must be one too. Let's go buy some cakes! I heard the sweet-scented osmanthus cakes in the west of the city are really good. Let's buy a bunch and take them back!"

Xiao Jixiang has no idea what potential stocks are.

But the only thing he was clear about was that the young master had convinced him again and started to eat and drink for free.

He couldn't help but say, "You...are not going to lose weight anymore?"

Zhu Gaoyu spoke as a matter of course:
“How can you lose weight if you don’t eat enough?”

Little Jixiang: “…”

Got it!
As for the little prince's mouth, no one can talk better than him.

……

The next day.

Yin Shi.

At this time, the ministers had not yet gotten up to attend the morning court, but in the Prince of Yan's Palace in the capital, the gongs and drums had already begun to be beaten.

When he heard the loud sound of gongs and drums outside, Zhu Gaochi sat up suddenly from the bed. For a moment, his heart was pounding.

After he came to his senses and realized that this was the capital under the Emperor's feet, and not the city of Beiping, he slowly relaxed.

Even if the barbarians from the north really attacked, they wouldn't be able to reach the imperial city so quickly, right?
After thinking about it, Zhu Gaochi breathed a sigh of relief, opened the curtain, and asked:
"What time is it now? What's going on outside? There's gongs and drums, early in the morning, just like an opera..."

The eunuch outside answered quietly:

"It's your Highness."

The words that were about to come out of Zhu Gaochi's mouth were suddenly stuck.

He was originally in a sleepy state and hadn't even recovered yet.

After hearing these words, for some reason, he always had a bad feeling in his heart.

Sure enough, the next moment, there was a lot of chattering outside.

"Brother! Brother! Don't sleep! Feel your fat, it can be cut into pieces and used as suet. Can you really still sleep?"

Zhu Gaochi's face twitched.

This kid...is becoming more and more impolite in his words.

What does it mean to be pressed for suet? !
He just became a little more rounded...right?

Thinking about the end, Zhu Gaochi became a little uncertain.

He glanced down and found that he could no longer see the tips of his shoes.

After a long silence, Zhu Gaochi quietly began to wash up.

The first update is here

ps: I changed it a bit, and there are a lot of wrong names, a lot of Zhu Gao X… I always write them in a mess when I write fast, my brain… it’s useless to check, no wonder I always lost marks because of carelessness when I was studying…
