Great Ming: I, Zhu Di, Declare My Intentions to Seize the Throne from the Start!

Chapter 170 Crow’s Mouth! Ma Xiuying is in a trance...

Ox carts and donkey carts entered the county.

"so many people!"

"I've never seen so many people!"

“So lively!”

…

The children were instantly stunned. They climbed on the low guardrails on both sides of the large truck, staring at the flow of people and shops on the street with their eyes wide open.

It was the first time for the children to see so many people and such a lively scene when they grew up.

Pedestrians on the street looked at Zhu Di and his team and stopped to watch curiously.

"Wearing Confucian shirts, these children look like they are here to take the child examination."

"Why are there so many children here at once?"

"Well, didn't the children who took the childbirth examination in the past always ride in a horse-drawn carriage? This is the first time I've seen a big cart come to take the childbirth exam, and there are so many people coming together."

…

The children turned a deaf ear to the comments of the people. They all opened their eager eyes and observed all the new things they had never seen before along the way.

Zhu Di is also looking for a vendor selling candied haws.

It's already early spring, and there are obviously not as many vendors selling these chewy gadgets as there were during the Spring Festival.

Go to the most prosperous central area of ​​the county.

Zhu Di really discovered the back of a man selling candied haws.

Zhu Di pointed forward and turned around with a smile: "I found the candied haws seller."

Xu Miaoyun turned her head curiously and looked in the direction of Zhu Di's finger.

"Shixian, help me drive the car..."

"Mr. Zhu, I'll go." Zhou Shixian jumped out of the carriage first, shuttled through the crowd, and chased the vendors in front of him who were following the flow of people.

puff!

When Zhou Shixian turned around with the vendors and pointed them to communicate with the vendors, the smile on Zhu Di's face froze, but Xu Miaoyun couldn't help but smile.

What a coincidence, it turned out to be the one who flattered Shiro and slapped the horse's leg during the Spring Festival.

"Brother, what a coincidence, we meet again!" Zhou Shixian came with a vendor. When the vendor saw Zhu Di, he glanced at Xu Miaoyun, and immediately grinned and said happily: "Last year, I said that my wife will definitely give it to my brother. My son will give birth to a big fat boy, and it is either Wu Quxing or Wen Quxing. Look, my little brother and I have met again. This is God’s will. What I said will definitely come true! My little brother is just waiting to hold a big fat boy. Bar……"

Xu Miaoyun lowered her head and tried hard not to laugh.

At the same time, she also had some doubts as to whether this was God's will, or it would be too much of a coincidence.

Crow's mouth!

Zhu Di looked at the hawker who grinned happily and looked like a chatterbox, and the corners of his lips twitched in anger.

Zhou Shixian heard from Zhou Lang that Zhu Di wanted a little cotton-padded jacket sincerely and pulled the corner of the hawker's clothes several times.

But the chatty hawker didn't even notice.

Zhu Di tried his best to keep a smile and pointed at the vendor's candied haws, "I want all your candied haws. How much do they cost?"

The hawker's eyes suddenly widened and he was stunned, and then he became even more happy. He grinned from the corner of his mouth to his ears and gave a thumbs up, "My little brother is proud of what he does. I will also give him my business. The original price is one hundred and ten cents. Now I just need to give you a hundred cents."

Zhu Di took out his money bag, counted a hundred coins and handed it to the merchant.

"Brother, my wife will definitely give birth to a big fat boy for me!"

"Either a martial artist or a literary star, my words will definitely come true!"

As the motorcade drove away, the hawker was still grinning from behind and shouting out his blessings.

puff!

Xu Miaoyun really couldn't help it, covering her mouth and snickering.

Zhu Di was so angry and funny that he picked two skewers from the top and handed the rest to Zhou Shixian, "Shixian, you go to the back and share it with the children."

Zhou Shixian nodded seriously and went to the back to distribute the candied haws to the children.

Zhu Di turned slightly sideways and handed the candied haws to Xu Miaoyun who lowered his head and snickered. He smiled angrily and said: "Eat it, the candied haws are also eaten, because you want to eat candied haws, and you found the same crow's mouth twice. If it weren't for the little cotton jacket, See how I ask you to repay your debt."

Xu Miaoyun held back her laughter and took the candied haws, and whispered with a smile: "Silang, do you think this is God's will or a coincidence?"

"There are so many God's wills and coincidences. There is no God's will. I conclude that it must be the little cotton-padded jacket." Zhu Di said firmly with a smile.

If it weren't for the little cotton-padded jacket, I'd meet this candied haws-selling crow's mouth next time.

Don't let him spend a penny!

Zhu Di looked back. After a rough scan, the children could each get two skewers, and there was still plenty left.

Each and every child, who looked exactly like their master’s wife, held up a bunch of candied haws in one hand, eating them, and observing everything they saw.

…

Wangxian Tower.

Because it was close to the north gate, Ma Xiuying's carriage arrived first.

Mao Xiang stopped the carriage and whispered: "Mother, we are here."

The waiter ran out to greet him, handed the horse's rein to him, took a small stool and placed it on the side of the carriage, waiting...

Ma Xiuying got out of the car with her maid Mingxia.

The carriage was led away by the waiter. Mao Xiang accompanied Ma Xiuying as he walked in, while whispering: "Mother, I just asked, Your Highness and the others haven't arrived yet, should we wait."

"No, go to the house first." Ma Xiuying ordered with a smile.

She wanted to hide in the dark and take a look.

This is a little fun of being a mother.

Mao Xiang couldn't understand. After being slightly surprised, he immediately went to make arrangements.

Soon, the waiter brought Ma Xiuying to Jinyiwei Xiaoqi's temporary room for her.

"Your Majesty, this is the second-class room in Zuixian Building. The best room is right next door. It was booked by Jiang Jinzhong for His Highness." Mao Xiang explained.

Ma Xiuying smiled and said, "That's just right. Miaoyun needs a more comfortable environment now."

As he spoke, Ma Xiuying came to the window and opened it.

Standing in front of the window, you can see everyone in the lobby.

It can be seen that many children who come to take the childbirth examination live in this Wangxian Building.

In the lobby, adults and children come and go from time to time.

new

"Your Majesty, the Jin Yiwei from Jiangning County also sent people to live here. When I came, I observed that there were several government officials patrolling the streets nearby. It seems that it was arranged by Jiang Jinzhong. There won't be any rogues who will attack the princess."

Ma Xiuying nodded.

at the same time.

Seven large carts approached Wangxian Tower.

Zhou Shixian ran into the store first, went straight to the counter, and took out a sign, "Checker Wang, are all the rooms reserved by Mr. Jiang ready?"

"Brother Zhou, have the distinguished guests of the County Lord arrived?" Shopkeeper Wang asked. At the same time, he hurriedly walked out. Seeing Zhou Shixian nodding, he hurried outside to greet...

Shopkeeper Wang saw seven large trucks coming without even a shed, and a flash of suspicion flashed in his eyes.

‘Is this Jiang County’s honored guest? ’

Except for a man and a woman in the big truck in front.

Even though the child in the car behind was wearing a Confucian shirt, he could not escape his piercing eyes that he had learned through many years of observing words and expressions.

At first glance, he looks like a country boy who has never even been to the county town!

Just when shopkeeper Wang was suspicious, Zhou Shixian had already ran out from beside him, went up to him, helped Zhu Di hold Dahuang, and stopped steadily.

A group of children, before the carriage stopped, jumped out of the carriage with a bunch of candied haws in one hand and ran to the door of Wangxian Tower to look at it.

"Wangxian Tower!"

"This is the Wangxian Tower that Jiang Qingtian reserved for us!"

"This building is too big! It's much bigger than the new houses of Master and Mistress."

…

‘These children actually know Mr. Jiang! It looks very familiar! ’

Shopkeeper Wang looked at Yang Dongxu and others in surprise, and greeted them with a smile on his face...

"Slow down, be careful..." Zhu Di helped Xu Miaoyun get out of the car while paying attention to the children.

When he took Xu Miaoyun away.

Yang Dongxu was answering Shopkeeper Wang, "Master Jiang is the magistrate of Jiangning County, of course we know..."

People are as big as little devils!

Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun looked at Yang Dongxu with a clear eye, and couldn't help but smile at each other in response to Shopkeeper Wang's clichés.

Seeing Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun approaching, Yang Dongxu breathed a sigh of relief and immediately ignored Shopkeeper Wang, "Master, Master."

Shopkeeper Wang stood up, clasped his fists and said respectfully: "Is this Mr. Zhu? The county magistrate has arranged a place for Mr. Zhu and his children. Please come with me."

…

puff!

In the room upstairs.

Ma Xiuying couldn't help but smile when she saw Xu Miaoyun holding a bunch of candied haws in each hand, and a group of children lining up to follow them, also walking in with a bunch of candied haws in their hands.

Mingxia smiled lightly and whispered, "My Lady, it's so interesting. No wonder His Highness and Princess don't want to go back to Jinling."

Ma Xiuying smiled and nodded.

At the same time, he sighed helplessly.

Look at how happy Laosi and Miaoyun are now. Under such circumstances, let them return to a place like Jinling City where everything is full of intrigues?

They certainly don't want to.

Zhu Di first sent Xu Miaoyun to the room, and then took his eighth uncle and others to settle the children.

After settling in.

Uncle Eighth said: "Silang, let's go back first and pick you up the day after tomorrow."

"Uncle Eighth, it doesn't cost much." Zhu Di said.

"I'll leave the kids to you and Da Ya. Don't worry, we're back." The Eighth Uncles smiled and insisted. Without saying a word, they left in a hurry.

They knew that Shiro and Daya were not short of this money.

But just because Shiro and Daya are not lacking, they can be shameless and take advantage.

Such a person has no skin, no face, no backbone. He will not be able to support himself for the rest of his life, and he will not be able to set a good example for his children and grandchildren.

Zhu Di knew what Uncle Eighth and the others were thinking, and he shook his head with a helpless smile.

Zhou Shixian invited: "Mr. Zhu, my mother would like to invite the two gentlemen and the children to have a barbecued fish dinner in Langlang. I wish you and the children..."

Zhu Di smiled and patted Zhou Shixian on the shoulder, "It was bumpy along the way. Mr. Xu is still pregnant and very tired. Let's go after the exam is over."

"Then I'll bring some grilled fish." Zhou Shixian insisted.

Zhu Di had a flash of inspiration and said with a smile: "When I came in just now, I noticed that there were many people living in Wangxian Tower who came to take the child exam. You can ask the store owner how many there are. Langlang Grilled Fish will give each table a free grilled fish at noon. , I wish these children a bright future ahead."

Seeing that Zhou Shixian was a little confused, Zhu Di patiently explained: "If a store wants to be a prosperous business for a long time, it must have a good reputation. Langlang grills fish, supports the children's imperial examinations, serves the court in the future, and benefits the people. This is a good reputation." .”

"Thank you, Mr. Zhu, for your guidance." After Zhou Shixian thanked him, he couldn't wait to say: "Mr. Zhu, I'm going to ask the shopkeeper. I will be back before noon. During my absence, if Mr. Zhu needs anything, you can go out and find him." Yamen, Mr. Jiang arranged for the Yamen to be nearby..."

Zhu Di nodded, watched Zhou Shixian leave in a hurry, smiled and turned back to the house.

inside the house.

Ma Xiuying and three others heard what Zhu Di taught Zhou Shixian.

Mao Xiang couldn't help but secretly nod. Among the princes, this Highness was definitely one of the most outstanding ones.

Can be hard or soft!

When decisive, one can be cruel and ruthless.

Lan Yu almost lost her life in Tuqiao Village.

When you think he can only be decisive and firm, you will find that this person can also handle things very appropriately.

Just like what he said himself.

No one can live without an edge, but he cannot show his edge all the time. On weekdays, he must hide his edge in a sheath.

Mao Xiang peeked out from the corner of his eye and saw that Ma Xiuying was thinking about something. He knew in his heart that it must be similar to what he thought. He carefully tried to test: "Empress, Your Highness and the others are settled now, do you want to go next door."

Ma Xiuying came to her senses, nodded, stood up, and ordered with a smile, "Don't follow me, go and do your own business."
