Chapter 73 North and South List (2)

The old emperor's birthday was not only a grand banquet, but also a fame and fortune, but also a time when the Eight Immortals showed their magical powers across the sea.

The wind in October is very cold, and winter in the south often comes suddenly, and inadvertently, it catches the coldness off guard.

The wind was cold, but the capital was very lively. The vassal kings from all over the country came to the capital to celebrate the birthday of the old emperor. This was a rare event in a century, and the business of Yingtianfu became more and more active.

The shops, restaurants, wineries and even the singers' business on the Qinhuai River are even more prosperous.

Even temple fairs and large fairs that only started in the twelfth lunar month in previous years began quietly, and there were crowds of people.

The emperor's birthday is a day of celebrating the whole world. Not only is the people in the capital of Daming lively like the New Year, but the surrounding small countries also join in the fun.

Three months ago, the old emperor announced the world that he allowed the vassal kings to come to the capital to celebrate their birthday. This news not only conveyed the Ming Dynasty, but also sent envoys to congratulate the vassal states that submitted their consciences.

Annan, Goryeo and other countries bordering the Ming Dynasty came to Beijing, and every day, foreign ships thousands of miles away arrived on the pier.

The old emperor's birthday was not just a family matter, it had become a state matter.

However, for the people in the capital, these envoys from the foreign countries were too lazy to see. In their opinion, the envoys of these small countries were far less powerful than the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty, and the people of the great countries did not look down on these small countries and few people from the hearts.

The Chinese are not xenophobic, but they have always had the tradition of despising other countries.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites were busy, and the officials of each department were working hard. At this time, no mistakes were made. The vassal kings and envoys from all over the country were watching. If they really caused trouble for the Ming Dynasty on the birthday of the old emperor, it would be a sin that would never be redeemed.

Compared with the officials in the court, Zhu Yunyu was the most leisurely one.

In the past few days, even Liu Sanwu and Fang Xiaoru don’t have to attend classes, and they accompany the vassal kings from all over the country every day.

The sons of the founding emperor were all proud. Among the older princes, the two kings of Qin and Jin and Zhu Yun-yu were the most friendly. It was not a secret that the old emperor belonged to the King of Wu. They knew that they had no hope of throne. In addition to being close relatives with Zhu Yun-yu, they also deliberately made friends with respect.

The young vassal kings were both unfair to Zhu Yun'e, and they were also happy. The throne of the young cannot fall, and they are the emperor's parents and children, and hereditary princes. As long as they do not rebel for the rest of their lives, they will do whatever they want in their fiefdom.

They would not be able to curry favor with Zhu Yunhuang, the King of Wu, and of course they would not offend him. Even among the young vassal kings, the most popular king of Ning, Zhu Quan, was able to deal with Zhu Yunhuang.

However, sometimes, King Ning would put on the airs of Uncle Wang in front of Zhu Yunsheng. He was young and energetic, and he was the King of Sui on the frontier, and he would have some edges and corners when speaking.

Zhu Yunxiu naturally would not have the same knowledge as him. In his opinion, King Ning was just a naughty child who had not grown up and had a long history of being mature.

Such a boy only needs a few good words to deal with it, making him look elated and unprepared. The so-called personality determines his destiny. It is no wonder that his personality was deceived by the King of Yan in history to the point where he was hostage, and then his military power was deceived.

As for King Yan Zhu Di, Zhu Yunqiu did not deliberately contact him, and the other party did not take the initiative to show his goodwill.

This day is a rare warm winter and warm sunshine. The weather in Jiangnan suddenly becomes clear in winter. Although the wind is still a little cold, it is also a good scenery.

In the martial arts performance field beside the Forbidden City, Zhu Yunyu and the vassal kings slowly rode their horses, chatting while walking, talking about interesting things in the places and courts.

Not far away, King Ning rode his horse on the passage where he practiced riding and shooting, and shot his bow from left to right on the horse's back, and shot his arrows without any slightest.

As a young man, he has the power of pride. At least Zhu Yunqiu couldn't ask about his skills in riding and shooting.

When the Ming Dynasty established the country with martial arts, Zhu Yuanzhang had to educate the princes with both literary and military skills. These kings guarded the border, so they naturally had good skills.

After just a few days of coming, King Ning, who had excellent martial arts and heroic spirit, became the leader among the young vassal kings. He showed off his skills in the martial arts field, and the vassal kings with guards were applauding.

The King of Qin looked over there and turned around and smiled at Zhu Yunsheng. The Seventeenth brother is still a young man and is not very stable!

King Zhu Qi of Jin was thinking, looking back at Zhu Di. The fourth brother was so energetic back then that no one took it seriously!

Zhu Di smiled and saw if the third brother was steady first. As he said that, he smiled again. Men can only be stable when they are old!

It's very tiring to talk to these people, and they all hide their words.

You guys are tired! Zhu Yunxiu smiled immediately and went down to have a tea! As he said that, he got off immediately and found out that some uncles had good tea, so he specially prepared some new tea that people could not drink in the north!

In the early days of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the style of luxury had not yet been developed. Although these vassal kings enjoyed locally, they still had a limit. They were not as luxurious as they did hundreds of years later.

Salt and tea are important national materials, and there are few people at the border. Every year, tea and salt intake require merchants to transport grain to the border for exchange. According to the proportion of grain transport, official intakes that can sell how many kilograms of salt tea can be distributed.

If you are terrified, you will care about it in the future! King Zhu Qi of Jin dismounted and said with a smile.

King Zhu Ren smiled and said, "A few pounds of tea can be too squeaked to ask for it!" As he said that, he sat down on the chair prepared by the guards and continued to smile, "I am not very proud of tea. If it is good wine from Jiangnan, my ten-year-old daughter Hong, etc., you can prepare two jars for me!"

The two uncles spoke intimately and did not treat Zhu Yun as an outsider at all.

From now on, I will pack the wine and tea for the two uncles! Zhu Yunxiu made tea with his own hands, and the tea in the snow-white porcelain bowl was rippling. After giving it to everyone, he continued to smile and said, if there is anything good in the area, don’t forget your nephew!

Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxiu smiled at Zhu Di again and said, "Fourth Uncle, please have tea!"

Zhu Di smiled and picked up the tea and took a sip. He seemed not very interested.

This tea is not in line with the taste of my fourth uncle? Zhu Yunxi asked with a smile.

I am a rough man, I can’t drink good or bad! Tea is enough to quench my thirst. If you have it, drink well water. The same is true! Zhu Di laughed loudly and said, if you invite me to drink, I can tell you that I am Chou Yin and Mao. If you drink this wine in Jiangnan, the best thing is to burn the knife in the north, just like the knife in the mouth. If you drink a sip in the winter, it will warm the whole stomach from your mouth to your stomach!

Zhu Yunxiu continued to make tea without moving, and the wine was like tea, so he had to taste it slowly. The wine in Jiangnan was not as strong as that in the north, but it was of special use to nourish the body and calm the mind. Although the wine in the north was very pleasant, drinking too much would hurt the body! As he said that, another cup of tea passed, was the fourth uncle and nephew said it right?

Zhu Di laughed loudly, you have read too much this book, and you have spoken one by one!

The two of them confronted each other silently, and King Qin and King Jin looked at each other with intriguing eyes.

The King of Yan did not deliberately make friends with the nephew of King Wu. The nephew of King of Wu also seemed to be implicitly alert to the uncle of King of Yan.

Among Zhu Yuanzhang's princes, the former crown prince Zhu Biao and the Yan King Zhu Di were outstanding when they were young. Among these two, the Yan King was the most proud. When he was young, many times, the brothers and brothers did something wrong and wanted to ask the prince to come forward to avoid being punished by their father.

Only the King of Yan is wrong, no one needs to say good things, just fight. After becoming an adult, the two feudals of Qin and Jin were even more protected by the prince's wings. However, the King of Yan Zhu Di immediately fought for his strengths and devoted himself to making achievements, and desperately proving himself.

It’s not that the relationship between the King of Yan and the Crown Prince is not good, but that Zhu Di has such a personality and will never want to be underestimated.

Zhu Di dared not do anything when the prince is alive.

Now that the prince is not here, the old man is interested in the prince's legitimate son.

After that...

In fact, after saying these words, Zhu Di felt a little regretful.

Be careful of being patient. When the prince is here, he will not endure it. He will be respectful for so many years.

Now that the prince is not here, why can’t I keep calm?

Thinking of it, he looked at Zhu Yunxi's face and understood a little.

This kid looked like a smiley tiger, deliberately saying something with thorns to make him uncomfortable! Zhu Di thought to himself.

Moreover, as the king of border guards who made many achievements in killing and making many achievements, he could naturally feel Zhu Yun's vigilance against him.

This feeling made him feel uncomfortable!

Because before the future capital, he had thought about how much friendship he had with the prince and even the princess's concubine in his past, and how much he valued Zhu Yunhuang, his nephew.
