Daming: At the start of the showdown, Lao Zhu was stunned

Chapter 275 Talking to Zhu Di
"Don't worry about that, second brother. The fifth brother must have made arrangements." Before Zhu Su could answer, Zhu Di smiled and patted Zhu Xi's shoulder.

"Second brother, you didn't realize that in the past few days, who is missing in Suzhou City?"

"Who is missing?"

"...Oh! You mean!" Zhu Xi pondered for a while, and suddenly realized!

That's right, Zhu Xi just remembered that it has been a long time, and Chang Mao from Zheng Guogong's mansion has not been seen!
"I dare you to notice it!" Zhu Er Er, who was belatedly aware of it, really didn't notice that there was a missing person in the city.

"Although I noticed it, I didn't think about it. Now that I think about it, you plan to eat all these thieves from the very beginning of the fight." Zhu Di was amazed. When he knew that the thieves were coming to attack the city, even he They were all at a loss.Unexpectedly, the fifth brother had already...

I don't know what I thought of, and then I became a little dejected.

Zhu Su saw it in his eyes, and was secretly worried in his heart.But now is not the time to care too much about this, and smiled to the two elder brothers: "Whether the plan is successful or not depends on whether the thieves outside the city are good at deceiving."

"I'll take Yang Lu with me quickly and reply to the thieves. If I go late, the thieves will think that Yang Lu won't cooperate and come to the urn, then no matter how good their plan is, it will be useless."

Everyone nodded in agreement, Zhu Su asked the dog to escort Yang Lu, went to the back room to change into clean clothes, and then went to the city wall to reply to the letter outside the city.According to what Ma Feng and Sun Xinzhong said, when two torches were lit and waved independently on the south city wall at the fifth watch, it was considered as an agreement to respond to the outside of the city.

Hiding in the darkness, Zhu Di looked at Yang Lu waving two torches in front of him, and couldn't help being suspicious: "Old man, this Yang Lu won't design to deceive us, right?"

"If this fellow is telling the outside of the city that we have set up an ambush, wouldn't it be..."

"No. Yang Lu doesn't have the guts." Zhu Su was very determined. "A villain like him is often the most scheming. It's impossible not to see that I, Da Ming, is now in charge of the world's justice. Going to those thieves who are unlikely to become great weapons will be death sooner or later."

"I think it was because he saw this that he was ready to run away after receiving the letter of persuasion... The thief will die sooner or later, but being shaken out of the bootlegger's armor is also death. Since they are all dead, it is better to roll Keep your family fortune incognito and become a rich man..."

"So, this thief can see clearly!" Zhu Xi looked at Yang Lu's back and laughed.

"That's right." Zhu Su also laughed. To be honest, he didn't expect Yang Lu to be so decisive...

Originally, he thought that he would be reluctant to part with the glory and wealth that he had already held in his hands, so he chose to give it a go.

"Know yourself and know your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles...is this the so-called 'know your enemy'?" Zhu Di nodded slowly, and glanced at Zhu Su out of the corner of his eye, showing a look of shame.

"Two Highnesses, Fifth Highness." In the front, Yang Lu nodded and trotted back. "The thieves outside have already got the news."

Standing on tiptoe, Zhu Su saw a flash of fire outside the city, presumably it was a scout sent by thieves waiting for news.Then he nodded to Yang Lu: "You bastard, it's best not to play tricks."

"How dare a small one!" Yang Lu, who was still a hunchback, now looked like a slave.Even calling himself humble. "Your Highness is wise and mighty, the thief hits the stone with an egg, and it's not that the small one can't see it! I just hope that the meritorious deeds can be redeemed..."

"You see the opportunity quickly." Zhu Su chuckled.This Yang Lu's skill in acting is really good, before he pretended to be a rough and bold general, but now he sees the situation is not good, and he is so servile.

This kung fu of adapting to the wind really made him a little... Admired.

"Di Meng, keep an eye on him these few days." But of course Zhu Su would not let go of his guard just because of this. "If there is any change in this guy, he will be killed directly."

"Don't be afraid that you won't be able to kill him, just charge him whatever you want. Just say that he intends to assassinate the king."

So casually planted, Yang Lu had to give Zhu Su an apology with a bitter face.Zhu Su waved his robe sleeves, "Well, it's almost dawn. Let's go back to the east tower first to rest."

"Although Ma Fengsun said that the city will be attacked at four o'clock tomorrow night, there is no guarantee that this is a plan, and we will be negligent in the daytime tomorrow..."

"Maybe, it will be a fierce battle during the day."

"It's better for you." Zhu Xi patted Zhu Su's shoulder, and then yawned: "In this case, we really need to hurry up and take a rest."

"I can't say, I have to show my skills tomorrow!"

Yang Lu has secretly handed over the soldier talisman to Zhu Xi, which is also the reason why Zhu Xi is eager to try. If things change, he will be responsible for holding the soldier talisman, suppressing the chaos with Qin Wangwei, and stabilizing the hearts of the Suzhou guards.Therefore, Zhu Xi, Qin Wangwei, Zhu Di, and Di Meng all wanted to stay in the south tower of the city, but Zhu Su and Wu Wangwei wanted to go back to the east of the city.When he was about to walk down the city wall, it was Zhu Di who saw him off. Seeing that there was no one else on the tower in the night wind, Zhu Su grabbed Zhu Di who was walking in front, turned around and said to Wu Wangwei who was behind him: "You guys wait at a distance. The four and I Brother, say something."

The guards agreed, then turned their backs and walked away.Seeing this, Zhu Di also asked Zhu Su strangely: "Old Wu, what do you want to tell me?"

"Fourth brother, you've been... a little weird lately." Zhu Su organized his words, "Is there something on your mind?"

"...Huh?" Zhu Di was stunned, and then forced a smile: "Me? What can be weird about me, can you tell me?"

"I always feel that you... are a little timid, not as free and easy as before."

"But what happened?"

Seeing Zhu Laowu looking at him burningly, with doubts and worries in his eyes, Zhu Di was only a child in his teens at this time, and he couldn't help but feel a bit of sadness in his heart: "Old Wu, I..."

"Let me ask you, you said that I will conquer Mobei five times in the future, and raise my Hua Xia's prestige...is it true?"

"Really?" Zhu Su was even more surprised.

"Can you tell me something?" Zhu Di said.

So Zhu Su roughly told Zhu Di the story of Zhu Di's five expeditions to Mobei in history.

Zhu Di was delighted when he heard it, and when he heard the exciting part, he couldn't help looking far away, his eyes revealing yearning, as if he had seen his future self, chasing death and chasing north, so Meng Yuan didn't dare to touch his mighty appearance.

"That's great!" Zhu Di sighed. "If this is true, death will not be in vain."

"It's just that now, I'm becoming more and more skeptical that the Emperor Yongle you mentioned is really me."

His eyes dimmed, and he returned to the preoccupied look he had at the beginning.
