Daming: Depriving Zhu Yunqi of luck at the beginning

The little eunuch panicked and said:

"Your Highness, you are the eldest grandson of the emperor. With your status, how can you go through the back door of the courtier's house?"

Zhu Xiongying waved his hands and said:

"It's okay, go to my own uncle's house, and I'm not an outsider."

"There is no need for so many rules."

"There are so many people who want to make friends with Founding Duke guarding this gate. If I enter through the gate, wouldn't it add to the chaos?"

Seeing that Zhu Xiongying had made up his mind, the little eunuch said:

"Then...that slave girl will go to the back door and report to the people in the mansion."

"Well, let's go."

Soon.

The little eunuch ran back and reported to Zhu Xiongying:

"Your Highness, the housekeeper in the Founding Duke's Mansion has known that His Highness is coming, and respectfully invites His Highness to enter."

"Ah."

Zhu Xiongying nodded and said:

"Did you tell him I was going in through the back door?"

"Yes, the servant girl said, it's His Highness's request." The little eunuch replied.

Zhu Xiongying nodded in satisfaction:

"Okay, let's go then."

Entered the founding government.

Chang Sheng, who was wearing regular clothes, hurried to the backyard. After seeing Zhu Xiongying, he saluted and said:

"Minister Chang Sheng, pay homage to His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson!"

Chapter 235 Talking with Chang Sheng

At this time, Chang Sheng didn't look like the unruly young man he was nine years ago, and he had matured a lot.

It has the demeanor of the head of the family.

"Uncle, you don't need to be too polite. I'm here as a nephew in private. We are all a family. Please get up."

Zhu Xiongying said to Chang Sheng.

Chang Sheng stood up, looked at Zhu Xiongying, and said with a smile:

"Hearing that His Royal Highness the eldest grandson has returned, I am so happy that I can't sleep at night."

"It's really a blessing from God to see His Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson again."

Zhu Xiongying asked:

"Uncle, I met Chang Ying in the inner school a few days ago, is she okay now?"

Chang Sheng nodded and said:

"If His Highness hadn't come forward, I wouldn't have known that Chang Ying was often bullied by Lu Lian from the Lu family in her inner school."

"People from the Lu family are really hateful!"

"However, it's all over now, and no one in the inner school dares to bully her anymore."

"When the school breaks, the minister will let her enter the palace to pay his respects to His Highness."

Zhu Xiongying nodded.

"It's not in a hurry, I will be in the capital from now on, and Ying Er can come to play in the palace at any time."

The two walked and chatted.

Then came to a side hall on the Founding Duke's mansion.

Here, the noise of people outside the mansion can be faintly heard.

Hearing this voice, Chang Sheng thought for a while, and said to the butler who just served hot tea:

"Go, blow away all the people outside the gate."

"It's so noisy, it will bother His Highness."

Zhu Xiongying said:

"No need."

"Presumably those people are all here to give gifts to you, uncle?"

"Uncle, you are too, why shut people out? If they are willing to give them away, you can accept them all."

Chang Sheng quickly waved his hands and said:

"How does this work."

"Your Highness, don't you know that over the years, Chang's family and them have moved less with each other, and I still feel peaceful and at ease... Now that you are back, these people all come here again when they think of your relationship with Chang's House, Your Highness. It's..."

"How can I accept such a gift?"

Zhu Xiongying sat on the chair, casually picked up the teacup at hand, and said:

"Just accept the gift certificate."

"They want to ask you to do anything, uncle, you just keep pushing."

"How can this be done," Chang Sheng said worriedly, "If this is the case, won't they..."

Speaking of it.

Chang Sheng paused by himself.

"Aren't you going to bother me again?"

"Correct."

Zhu Xiongying took a sip of tea and said:

"These people see that Uncle, you took the gift but didn't do anything, so naturally they won't bother you anymore."

"As for those who want to build relationships."

"You just accept the gift."

"It's been a long time, and they know that they are making fun of themselves, so they won't come."

The butler standing on one side showed a look of embarrassment and reminded:

"Your Highness, master, if this is the case...won't our family's reputation become bad..."

"I don't care what they think of me?"

Chang Sheng didn't care about it, he had the demeanor of an unruly young man back then.

"As long as Your Majesty and His Royal Highness don't misunderstand me, I'm not afraid of being misunderstood by anyone." Chang Sheng said, "In the end, I'm just a minister of Ming Dynasty, and I don't care how others think of me."

Zhu Xiongying smiled and nodded:

"That's the reason. Uncle, don't worry. After I go back, I will tell Grandpa Huang that it doesn't matter no matter how many people give you gifts... With me here, he won't suspect you."

After hearing this, Chang Sheng said to the butler:

"Go, accept the invitations and gifts from the people waiting at the door, and let them leave quickly."

"If you keep making noise, our Changfu will become a vegetable market."

The butler hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Yes, master, I'll go right away."

Wait for the butler to leave.

Zhu Xiongying pointed to the seat next to him and said:

"Uncle, don't be too cautious, this is your own home, just sit down."

Chang Sheng sat down.

"Your Highness, I heard that...in a few days, the vassal kings from all over the world will enter Beijing?"

Zhu Xiongying put down the teacup and said:

"Yes, my uncles haven't come back for a long time."

Chang Sheng said nervously:

"Your Highness, these vassal kings are not kind... especially Yan Wang of Beiping, we must guard against them!"

Zhu Xiongying smiled and said:

"Uncle, who told you what you said?"

Chang Sheng was suddenly at a loss for words.

"Where... how can anyone tell me that the minister is just..."

"Uncle, you have never had anything to do with King Yan, why did you mention him so suddenly?" Zhu Xiongying straightened his cuffs and asked, "If you have anything to say, you can tell me directly, you don't have to beat around the bush."

Chang Sheng thought about it, and finally decided to tell Zhu Xiongying the truth:

"Chen, I recently exchanged letters with Duke Liang..."

Zhu Xiongying was not surprised at all, and said with a calm smile:

"That's right, Duke Liang is your uncle's uncle. It's normal for the family to exchange letters."

"This makes me wary of King Yan...is that also what Duke Liang said in his letter?"

Chang Sheng nodded and said:

"Your Highness, although Duke Liang said in his letter not to mention him, I dare not hide anything from His Highness."

"However, in my opinion, the princes of various places are indeed..."

Chang Sheng did not say the following words.

But Zhu Xiongying knew in his heart what he wanted to say.

"Uncle, don't worry too much. King Yan is my uncle, and he won't do me any harm."

Zhu Xiongying said.

Chang Sheng said nervously:

"Your Highness, as the saying goes, you must be cautious...you..."

"Okay, I know that my uncle is loyal to Daming. Don't worry, no one else will know what you said today except me," Zhu Xiongying comforted, "By the way, since you have correspondence with Duke Liang , then did he say when he will return from training?"

Chang Sheng replied:

"After Liang Guogong learned about the prince, he has already rushed towards the capital at night...but..."

Zhu Xiongying asked, "But what?"

Chang Sheng hesitated and said:

"But after hearing the news of His Highness's return..."

Hearing this, the corners of Zhu Xiongying's mouth rose slightly:

"After hearing the news, I'm afraid he won't be in a hurry anymore, and he will come to the capital in a leisurely manner, right?"

Chang Sheng arched his hands and said:

"His Highness's intelligence is beyond compare."

Zhu Xiongying put away his smile and said:

"I think so, he hurried back to the capital because he was afraid that Zhu Yunzheng would harm Yunxie, if that was the case, then he would have nothing to do..."

"It's really come to such a point, if the Lu family gains power, even my grandpa will not let him go."

"With [-] soldiers, the Great General and Duke of the State who even the Ministry of War and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies don't look down on... such a person, my grandpa will not leave him to Zhu Yunqi."

Chang Sheng was stunned.
