The sun above our heads was so bright that it dazzled our eyes, and the autumn cicadas screamed on the branches and made their last struggle.
Zhu Bai originally wanted to find a place to take a nap and be lazy, but he didn't feel sleepy anymore when he heard that Lan Yu was his master.
I staggered to the school grounds and saw a burly man with a beard and a round face. There was no prince in front of him.
Hoo! This is Lan Yu, the "God of War" who founded the Hongwu Empire.
Tsk tsk tsk, this fierce man is Chang Yuchun's apprentice and is best at raiding.
He immediately leaned over with wide eyes.
Lan Yu didn't want to be this master in the first place.
Now I saw that Zhu Bai had no flesh on his body and could not even reach his shoulders with his tiptoes, so he became even more depressed.
Being pushed around by Zhu Bai like a donkey for several times, Lan Yu was so shaken that she felt dizzy and irritated, so she stretched out her hand and pressed the top of Zhu Bai's head to make him stop.
Zhu Bai struggled for a while, but found that he couldn't move.
Then the two enemies, one big and one small, stood there staring at each other like a cow facing a little monkey.
Lan Yu was the first to break the embarrassment: "What does Your Highness, King Xiang, want to learn from?"
Zhu Bai rubbed his hands: "Set up the formation, this is fun."
Lan Yu was secretly depressed: She was indeed a child, just playing.
Lan Yu tried her best to squeeze out a hint of her aunt's smile: "Prince Xiang, you should learn something to get started quickly."
Zhu Bai turned his head and thought for a while, then said to Lan Yu: "Then you can teach me how to escape, especially how to escape from being surrounded."
If you learn this, won't you be able to save your life if there is an emergency in the future?
Lan Yu's face twitched: Damn, this kid definitely did it on purpose. I am a pioneer, and he asked me to teach him how to escape?
He said harshly: "I don't know how to do this. The Ming Dynasty's military law states that if a powerful enemy is present, if you dare to turn back, you will be killed immediately."
This guy really has a clear mind...
Zhu Bai pursed his lips.
Over there, Tang He, Mu Ying and Guo Ying each told the three elder princes the same words: "Guarantee the second place and fight for the top spot."
The other masters said the same thing to the prince: "Just beat Zhu Bai."
The princes just nodded silently.
The second prince Zhu Feng, who was only the tallest and the thickest, deliberately replied in a rough voice: "It would be a good idea to teach that boy Twelve a lesson. He is usually dishonest, always gets into trouble, and even hurts us."
Then, all the princes looked at Zhu Bai with pity.
Zhu Bai originally thought that if he lost, he would lose, and at worst he would have to kneel for an hour.
But when I heard the words of the masters and Zhu Xi, my diaosi heart, which had been as quiet as dead water for thousands of years, suddenly burst into flames.
Damn it, you look down on people so much.
This time I want to win for you and let you know that I am also a man!
He smiled at Lan Yu: "Master, please teach me how to run."
This is always Sapphire's specialty, right?! Anyway, the difference between running away and running is that one turns around and runs backward, and the other runs forward.
As expected, Lan Yu's interest was immediately aroused: "Ah, this is a long story. Running attacks depends on the terrain, landforms and weather... But martial arts training is not as good as writing. What matters is practice, just talking.
There is no use in moving. I will inevitably bump into bumps and bruises. I wonder if His Highness can bear it."
Zhu Bai grinned: "What a coincidence, I happen to be a person who can't sit still."
So the other princes practiced archery with their master, and those who practiced archery and those who played with swordsmanship.
Only Lan Yu and Zhu Bai were running around the school grounds.
Rolling in the dirt, crawling in the mud, climbing trees and walls, crossing ditches and fences.
The princes and masters are getting more and more amused: the majestic "God of War" was led astray by a child.
When the bells and drums sounded as the palace door was about to close, Lan Yu suddenly woke up.
Tsk, how can I teach this child this all afternoon...
The key point is that this skill is of no use at all when it comes to a two-on-one competition.
A day wasted in vain.
Lan Yu made a serious face: "I can't learn this anymore tomorrow, I have to learn some serious skills."
Zhu Bai, who had been laughing and joking all afternoon, suddenly looked solemn at this moment: "Master, don't worry, I just ask master if you want to win."
Lan Yu stared at the little guy in front of her, her heart racing.
Nonsense, of course I want to win!
I am a great military general, and I have always regarded winning or losing on the school field as more important than life.
The key point is, does it make sense to ask me?
No matter whether I think about it or not, you will definitely lose!!
Just being pulled by Zhu Bai like this, he couldn't leave, so he could only nod his head and say: "Think about it."
Zhu Bai added: "Then master, just teach me this. They are waiting to see the joke between us two, but I want to counterattack and slap my brothers and their master in the face."
Lan Yu's heart trembled, and it suddenly occurred to her mind that more than ten years ago, when a certain country was at the end of its rope, Lao Zhu said to them: "Even the bandits don't take us seriously, we insist on knocking down this country, so that they can take a good look at it."
It depends on our ability."
He woke up from his daze and nodded solemnly: "If the King of Xiang wants to learn, I will teach you. At the worst, I will be fined a month's salary, and I will die of poverty."
At this moment he suddenly figured it out.
If Lao Zhu really had trouble with him, if he escaped this time, there would be a next time.
In terms of military exploits, no one in the DPRK could surpass him.
In terms of status, he is the prince's wife's uncle.
I'm used to being arrogant, so I don't want to be a coward at the end of the day and be laughed at by mice like Mu Ying.
Then come on!!
-----
When Zhu Yuanzhang came out of the imperial study, he saw the princes returning from the school grounds from a distance.
Zhu Bai was covered in mud and his face was covered with dust, while the other princes felt refreshed.
Lao Zhu murmured in his heart: Hey, could it be that Zhu Bai's brothers thought they were sure to win and didn't practice hard?
Well, I need to give these guys a hard beating at dinner tonight. Don’t let the weird old Twelve take advantage of me.
During dinner, the princes sat next to Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma according to their age.
Queen Ma has an oval face, simple makeup, and a gentle smile at the corner of her mouth. She looks like a good wife and mother at first glance.
On Zhu Bai's left side sat the eleventh prince Zhu Chun, who was half a year older than him, and on his right sat the tenth prince Zhu Tan who was one year older than him.
Usually there are only four dishes and one soup on the table, and they are all vegetables, tofu and the like.
Today there is an extra bowl of braised pork.
It's okay to just study on weekdays, but today after a long afternoon of hard work, the princes were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs. Their eyes were bright when they looked at the bowl of oily, shiny, red and attractive meat, and they all secretly swallowed their saliva.
But Zhu Yuanzhang didn't move, and the princes didn't dare to move.
Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied with the respectfulness of the princes. He took a chopstick of meat and said, "Eat it."
Empress Ma pursed her lips and smiled: "Children, please eat. Today, your father sympathizes with your hard work in martial arts training and specially asked Guanglu Temple to prepare meat."
She gave Zhu Biao and Lao Zhu each a chopstick of meat.
The princes then started gobbling up the food.
Then Zhu Yuanzhang began to ask the princes one by one: What did they learn and how did they learn?
The princes were preoccupied with eating meat, so naturally they didn't pay attention, so they didn't respond to anything.
Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied. At first he was worried that these generals would not teach them carefully. It seemed that he was worrying too much.
When the princes finished their replies, he would tell them: "Practice hard and don't be lazy."
When they arrived at Zhu Bai's place, Lao Zhu stopped asking and concentrated on eating.
Hiss, it seems they are treated differently.
Haha, Lao Zhu, if you want to stop, it depends on whether I let you stop.
Zhu Bai opened his big innocent eyes and asked Zhu Yuanzhang: "Father, how will the victory be determined in the martial arts competition?"
Zhu Yuanzhang ignored it and said: "Draw lots for two-by-two duels, compare weapons, ride and shoot, and fight. The referee will decide the winner or lose."
"What if it's a close match and the referee can't tell the winner?"
"Then wait until one side admits defeat."
Zhu Bai looked like he suddenly understood, and turned to ask the round-headed Zhu Chun: "Brother Eleven, if I have to compete with you in weapons, do you think your sword is faster or mine?"
