Ming Dynasty: The Crocodile King of Han Prince Zhu Gaoxu's Family

Chapter 159 A letter from home is worth ten thousand dollars

Prince of Han Zhu Gaoxu stared at Emperor Yongle, trying to see some hope on his face.

"Dad, you finally chose that brat, right?
Even if I can do it well, even if He'er is stronger than that brat, even if He'er has a dragon! "At this moment, Prince Han stared at Emperor Yongle with longing eyes, his eyes full of desire. He longed for Emperor Yongle to change his mind and make him the crown prince!

"Second brother, the country cannot be in chaos!" Emperor Yongle looked at the King of Han in front of him, and after a moment of silence, he finally spoke out the most crucial question. If the eldest brother blocks the border, even if the second brother wants to win, it will cause heavy losses to the country!

"Hahaha..." After hearing this, Prince Han couldn't help but burst into laughter, and his laughter was full of sadness.

“After this battle, the boss will ascend the throne.

He'er is also going to be a vassal to carry out his plan.

"Second brother, what about you? Are you really prepared to fight again as agreed with He'er?" Emperor Yongle's words could be said to be frank and open, directly asking whether Prince Han would rebel again!

"He'er is a good child, and I want to be a good father too!" Facing the questions of Emperor Yongle, Prince Han finally made a firm choice to try again!
"Second Brother, remember, our Ming Dynasty is surrounded by powerful enemies, and we are facing internal and external troubles. Those problems have not been solved yet!
This country must not be in chaos! "Faced with the stubborn King of Han, Emperor Yongle really didn't have the energy to deal with it at the moment. He couldn't just dismiss the King of Han or kill him on the spot!

If that happened, the grassland Tartars at the Three Gorges would probably launch a counterattack! Therefore, Emperor Yongle, knowing that he was unable to restrain his middle-aged son, finally chose to speak up and persuade him.

“You guys go down.

Second son, think carefully about what I, an old man, said, and then think carefully about what Heer said." Emperor Yongle waved his hand weakly, asking the two strong sons in front of him to withdraw.

"My son, please retire!"

"Your son is taking his leave!" The King of Han and the King of Zhao looked at each other and silently left the tent of Emperor Yongle.

"Retribution...?" Emperor Yongle asked himself with sadness in his eyes as he watched his two sons leave.

On the other side, in Shuntian Prefecture.

"Princess! Princess! There is a letter from He'er!" Aunt Xiu'er ran towards Princess Han's room like a gust of wind with several letters in her hand.

"Xiu'er, what's the matter? You look so anxious." Princess Wei was sitting upright on the small couch at the moment, fiddling with the jade ruyi in her hand boredly. When she saw Xiu'er running in hurriedly, her eyes were full of confusion.

"Princess! The prince has sent you a letter!" Facing Princess Wei's puzzled expression, Xiu'er took out several letters and a small wooden box from behind her back as if presenting a treasure and handed them to Princess Wei.

"Really?!" When Princess Wei heard that she had received a letter from her son, her face was full of surprise. She stood up from the small couch, threw the jade ruyi in her hand aside, took her son's letter, and completely ignored the existence of the wooden box.

"So many?" Princess Wei took the letter handed to her by Xiu'er, her face full of surprise.

"Princess, only one letter is for you. The others will be forwarded to other people." After hearing this, Xiu'er hurriedly explained.

"Let me see.

This one is for me.
This is for Chaotian Temple.
For the two little girls,

To Minister Xia,
There are quite a lot of letters to Miss Xia! Princess Wei looked at the pile of letters in her hand speechlessly, and found that there was only one letter to herself, which made her feel a little disappointed. But when Princess Wei turned around and saw Xiu'er with an expectant look on her face, she was also stunned. This kid even wrote a letter to the little girl at home, but there was no letter to Xiu'er? This is unreliable!
"Come, Xiu'er, read the letter with me." Princess Wei saw Xiu'er's disappointment, so she pulled her over enthusiastically and asked her to read the letter with her.

"Respectfully sent by my dear mother. I bow down to you a hundred times. It has been a year since I went to the battlefield..." Princess Wei looked at the contents of the letter and her expression could not help but change, as if she had personally accompanied her son to the battlefield and felt his life through the letter!
“…I wish my mother good health.

Also, please ask Mother to tell Aunt Xiu'er to take care of herself, eat well, sleep well, and stay alert. If I get married and have children, I'll still need Aunt Xiu'er's care!" Seeing this, Princess Wei of Han's eyes lit up.

"Xiu'er, look, He'er is talking to you. He wants you to take good care of yourself. When he gets married and has children, he wants you to take care of the children for him!" Princess Wei handed the letter in her hand to Xiu'er who was looking at her eagerly, her tone full of surprise.

"Really?! Let me see!" After hearing this, Aunt Xiu'er immediately took the letter handed to her by Princess Wei, looked at the content on it, and couldn't help crying with joy.

"Your Highness, you are such a fool! You haven't even gotten married yet, but you're already thinking about the future.

Don't worry, Princess. If His Royal Highness has a child in the future, I will definitely stay by his side and take good care of him! " Xiu'er looked at the letter with tears in her eyes. The feeling of loss just now disappeared in an instant, and she was filled with joy.

"Well, look at you, you're such a grown-up, but you're still crying." Princess Wei looked at Xiu'er with a teasing look on her face, her heart full of emotion. It's been almost a year since the war, and there's been no letter from her son. This time, she can finally put her mind at ease!

"Xiu'er, deliver the letter from Chaotian Temple!
Now go and invite Miss Xia to come over! Also, have the two maids, Yun'er and Jian'er, come and serve us!" Princess Wei calmed down and began to arrange the next work in the mansion.

"Yes, I will invite Miss Xia to my house right away!" As soon as Xiu'er heard it, she knew what Princess Wei meant. After all, there was no man in the family, so it was not appropriate to invite Minister Xia to my house. Miss Xia was just right!

In a blink of an eye, Xiu'er asked someone to call over the two little girls, Yun'er and Jian'er.

"The princess invited Miss Xia to her house today and personally named you two to serve her.

You two should behave well, don't say that the princess doesn't give you a chance. "Looking at the two little girls who were a little restrained in front of her, Xiu'er said with a smile while sitting on the chair.

"Thank you, Princess, and thank you, Aunt Xiu'er! We will definitely perform well!" Yun'er reacted the fastest and immediately understood the meaning. She immediately pulled Jian'er down and knelt down, kowtowed to Aunt Xiu'er to express her gratitude.

"Thank you, Princess, and thank you, Aunt Xiu'er!" Jian'er also reacted and spoke quickly.

"Well, go ahead and get ready!" Xiu'er waved her hand and let the two little girls go down.

Not long after, Aunt Xiu'er was at the door, welcoming a low-key carriage.

After the carriage stopped, a maid came out and brought a small stool to use as a step beside the carriage.

Then, a jade hand lifted the gray curtain, and then a woman with a slim figure, beautiful face, and a scholarly air slowly walked out of the carriage.

"Hello, aunt!" After getting off the car, the woman bowed her head and saluted Xiu'er who came to greet her.

"Miss, please don't be so polite. I'm just a maid, so I don't deserve this! Come with me into the mansion quickly." Xiu'er looked at the man in front of her. He was dignified and generous, with polite manners, and his eyebrows were full of scholarly air. The slightly nervous girl was very satisfied! Well, he has a good figure too, just right for our He'er!
After Xiu'er finished speaking, she stepped forward and affectionately took the hand of the woman in front of her. As soon as she touched her, she felt that her hand was so soft that it seemed boneless, which made people feel pity for her.

"Let's go, follow me into the mansion. The princess is waiting." Aunt Xiu'er was slightly stunned, then continued to pull the woman in front of her into the mansion.
