In the Wuying Hall, there was a lot of excitement as people drank and drank.
Li Kui was chatting and laughing with Yang Shiqi and several important cabinet ministers, and their faces almost stopped laughing.
To them, Li Kui was a rising star. He was both wise and brave, and he was also in the team of the grandson Zhu Zhanji. He could fully support them and make up for the shortcomings of the prince's line in terms of generals in the court.
In just a few words of conversation, everyone had even planned the fastest promotion route for Li Kui in the future.
Li Kui didn't know whether to laugh or cry about this, but he had to deal with it first.
It took quite a while.
Li Kui escaped from this group of old foxes as if he had been granted amnesty. He breathed a long sigh of relief and returned to his desk.
"Deputy Li Qianhu, he really made a splash this time."
Ridiculing words came from around me.
Li Kui turned his head to look at Zhu Zhanji, raised a smile, took the initiative to pick up the wine cup, and stretched it over.
The wine cups clashed and the wine rose.
Zhu Zhanji leaned slightly and asked in a low voice: "Where have you been these past few days?"
"I didn't go anywhere. I found a secluded place to have a good rest and digest."
The smile on Li Kui's face did not change.
Zhu Zhanji was thoughtful and then smiled quite proudly:
"Let me tell you, at the beginning, I was really shocked when you heard nothing from me. It was only thanks to your highness's cleverness that I noticed that the two yellow scarf warriors you left for me did not move, so I felt relieved."
He shook the wine cup: "After all, if you die or are seriously injured, something will happen to the Yellow Turban Warriors and you will be unable to summon."
Hearing this, Li Kui was stunned.
In order to ensure that today's surprise did not change, he did not contact anyone. Unexpectedly, Zhu Zhanji thought of this and guessed that he was safe and sound. He couldn't help but raise his thumb and praised: "Awesome, awesome, His Highness is even more skilled."
"Hahaha." Zhu Zhanji took a sip of wine and joked: "I've been photographed with horses, but it's almost the same if I remove the last sentence."
Then, he changed the subject and asked:
"But what happened at that time?",
"Speaking of this..."
As soon as he started talking, Li Kui suddenly turned his head to the side and looked forward as if he was feeling something. He met the eyes of Zhu Gaoxi and the two of them. The corner of his mouth curled up, and his smile gradually became colder.
It was very warm inside the palace.
Zhu Gaoxi felt an inexplicable chill in his heart, and the hairs on his neck stood up, followed by uncontrollable anger, his eyes were fierce, and his thick big hands slowly clenched together, and his smile became stronger.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Zhanji's eyes suddenly turned cold. By observing Li Kui's reaction, he had already guessed who was behind it.
At the same time, he finally realized the anomaly of Zhu Gaosui and Zhu Gaoxi. In the past, both parties used political suppression to achieve their goals. They rarely played assassination dramas. Who loses and wins only depends on Zhu Di.
Now the two of them have to be their own chess players.
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji tilted his head slightly, looked at Zhu Gaosui with a half-smile, raised his glass in a distant salute, and his murderous intention overflowed like wine.
Their eyes met, sharp and pointed.
It just so happened that the palace maids presented a new round of wine and food, and the light and shadow intertwined, creating a bloodless fight.
at this time.
"His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun, Deputy Li Qianhu."
A young eunuch and eunuch came over, leaned over and said softly: "The saint invites you."
Li Kui shifted his gaze and looked at the position of the dragon chair, only to realize that Zhu Di had left at some point.
"Let's go, Li Kui."
Zhu Zhanji raised his head and drank the wine from the cup, swung his sleeves and robe and followed the eunuch, followed closely by Li Kui.
The three of them walked out of Wuying Hall together.
"Huh?"
Zhu Zhanji looked ahead and exclaimed.
But in the square in front of the palace, a huge airship stood in the center, a slightly swollen airbag, and connected below was a dragon-headed warship, standing majestically, casting a huge shadow.
"Your Highness."
The young eunuch saw Zhu Zhanji stopped and called softly.
"I'm coming."
Zhu Zhanji came to his senses, called to Li Kui, and quickly followed him.
When they got closer, strong steam heat waves rolled in, blowing the hair on Li Kui's forehead. He looked up and saw a dragon chair placed at the position of the dragon's head. Zhu Di was sitting on it, with his back to them.
Beside him, there was an elegant 'man' wearing a white robe, it was Zheng He.
Zhu Zhanji rolled his eyes and bent down to bow:
"My grandson has met grandpa."
"Li Kui pays homage to the saint."
"Okay, you little loach, come up quickly."
Zhu Di said without looking back.
Immediately afterwards, the two stepped onto the airship.
"Boom."
With a dull loud noise, the airship slowly rose, and the earth became farther and farther away, until the entire city of Beiping was under its feet.
Zhu Di crossed his legs and stroked his beautiful beard. His eyes reflected the lights of thousands of houses and the mountains and rivers thousands of miles away.
For a moment, there was silence on the dragon boat.
'Strange, grandpa, what happened today?'
Zhu Zhanji had been with Zhu Di since he was a child and knew his temperament and character very well, but even so, he could not figure out what the Ming Emperor was thinking at this time.
He glanced at Li Kui and couldn't help but curl his lips.
Good guy, watching the night scene with great interest, obviously staying out of it.
"grandfather."
"Um."
"You came to see your grandson. Do you have something to tell me?"
"No, I came here to accompany me to see the vast mountains and rivers of the Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Di's eyes were clear and he smiled softly: "Such a country makes people nostalgic."
It feels like there is something in the words. What does it mean?
Zhu Zhanji looked at Zhu Di's back and frowned slightly. He wondered what kind of medicine his grandfather was selling in his gourd.
He looked at Zheng He again.
The Sanbao eunuch just smiled and nodded.
have to,
Zhu Zhanji sighed helplessly and had no choice but to watch the night scene with Li Kui.
Not to mention, standing on the clouds and overlooking the entire Peiping is really indescribable and comfortable.
The huge airship circled Peiping completely until it slowly descended.
"Great grandson."
"My grandson is here."
"Just go ahead and do it."
"good."
Zhu Zhanji blinked, not understanding what it meant, but he still responded first.
He felt as if something had happened, but he had no clue and didn't know where to go. However, he didn't notice that Li Kui beside him had a smile on his lips.

"boom."
The airship slowly landed.
Li Kui and Zhu Zhanji came down one after another. They did not go back to Wuying Hall and went straight to the Meridian Gate.
The long road of white marble.
"By the way, come New Year's Day tomorrow, come to Chunhe Palace to spend it with us," Zhu Zhanji said.
Chunhe Palace is the residence of Prince Zhu Gaochi.
Li Kui lowered his eyes slightly, and finally smiled and said, "No need."
"how?"
Zhu Zhanji raised his eyebrows, "Are you still polite to me?"
"no."
Li Kui couldn't help but light a cigarette, "I still have something to do."
"It is true?"
"real!"
"Tsk, okay."
Zhu Zhanji understood Li Kui's temperament, so he didn't force it.
"By the way, the person you recommended to me last time is Yu Qian." Zhu Zhanji smiled and said, "He is indeed a talented person with very insightful views on many things. I arranged for him to be trained under Mr. Yang."
"Um."
Li Kui blew out a puff of smoke and said, "Yu Qian is indeed a talent and can be of great help to you in the future."
Then, he glanced at Zhu Zhanji and couldn't help but smile.
"Zhanji."
"ah?"
Zhu Zhanji was stunned for a moment, goosebumps came up all of a sudden, and he screamed: "Can you please stop calling me so affectionately!"
"Hahaha."
Li Kui couldn't help laughing loudly, and hugged Zhu Zhanji's shoulders, "To be honest, I haven't laughed so wildly for a long, long time.
"Tomorrow is New Year's Day, and I have prepared a New Year's gift for you."
"A gift, what gift?"
Zhu Zhanji suddenly became energetic and asked curiously.
"You will know when the time comes, and I guarantee you will be satisfied."
Li Kui looked mysterious.
"Tsk." Zhu Zhanji was speechless: "You're doing this again."
"Trust me, you will like it."
The corners of Zhu Zhanji's mouth curled up.
The two of them staggered forward.
"I'll take you out of the palace."
"I can't see it anymore."
"What's the meaning?"
Li Kui raised his chin and pointed forward.
I saw Hu Shanxiang and a pretty woman standing at the end of the long road, waving from a distance, followed by several palace ladies.
"Ha ha ha ha."
Seeing this, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but laugh, "Then you can leave the palace by yourself."
"Depend on!"
Li Kui gave him the middle finger.
Immediately, Zhu Zhanji ran over, took the hands of the two beauties, and waved goodbye to Li Kui.
Li Kui raised the corners of his mouth and walked straight out of the palace.
He doesn't have many friends, Zhu Zhanji is one of them.
