As expected, Zhu Ju sat on Zhu Yuanzhang's knees and started stroking.
As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Bai come in, he immediately scolded: "You bastard, why did you make your sister cry? Come here quickly and give your sister that toy to play with."
Zhu Bai looked confused: "What toy?"
Zhu Ju burst into tears and said, "It's just a toy he took out from the war bureau. He doesn't want to let me play with it."
Zhu Bai looked suddenly enlightened and nodded: "Oh, it turns out we are at the military battle station..."
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly realized the problem. He lowered his head and asked Zhu Ju: "You are a little girl. You are only a little older. Where are you going to fight? That place is full of fire and knives. What can you do if you are injured?"
Zhu Ju was stunned for a moment, pointed at Zhu Bai, and asked: "Why can Brother Twelve go?!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Your twelfth brother is a boy. Besides, he is going to do business."
When he bought those firearms before, Lao Zhu asked the Ministry of War and the War Bureau to study imitations at the same time.
Zhu Bai said hello to Zhu Yuanzhang at that time and said that he would go and visit him from time to time.
Zhu Yuanzhang also agreed.
Zhu Ju didn't expect that the tried-and-tested method of crying and acting coquettishly would fail, and she didn't know what to do.
Zhu Bai "kindly" advised Lao Zhu: "Father, don't blame my sister. My sister is still young, so she doesn't know where she can go and where she can't go."
"Yes, it's all those slaves who were lazy and didn't look at Ju'er properly. Fortunately nothing happened, otherwise what should I do?" Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth and said, "One by one, the palace servants around Princess Shouchun should all go to me outside.
Kneel down. Kneel down until you remember. Do you still dare to let the princess run around in the future?"
Zhu Ju wanted to run away when he heard this, but Zhu Yuanzhang said again: "Don't go, just watch from the side, so as not to turn around and forget."
Zhu Bai was about to laugh and split his head: Haha, these people took Princess Shouchun to the military battle station to block me, and then came to the imperial study room to complain. They thought I didn't know. Am I so easy to mess with?
But who ordered them to do this?
Interesting, I am now so popular that the people in the palace are jealous, are they going to take action against me?
There was a rumble of thunder, and then it started to rain.
Zhu Yuanzhang asked Zhu Bai a few more questions about what Liu Bowen taught today, and then let Zhu Bai out.
People were kneeling on the ground outside, soaked in the rain.
It's an early spring day, and it's suddenly warm but then cold. It's not pleasant to kneel in the rain like this.
Zhu Ju didn't know whether it was because she was scared or because she felt sorry for her nanny. She stood under the eaves and sobbed. When she heard Zhu Bai come out, she stopped sobbing and looked at him fiercely: "It's all your fault. I punished my father for not playing with me!"
Zhu Bai originally wanted to leave, but seeing that the child didn't seem to have learned the lesson, he simply walked over and patted Zhu Ju on the shoulder, pointing at the people shivering in the cold rain: "It looks good. Remember, don't come here if nothing happens."
Annoy me. Otherwise, you will be punished more often in the future."
After he finished speaking, he walked away.
There was a sudden thunder in the sky, which made Zhu Ju tremble and start crying again.
-----
It has been raining every day recently, it is cold and wet, and Zhu Bai is too lazy to go out. After returning from the imperial study, he is thinking about the pistol in the palace.
On this day, Fugui said that Zhu Xi was here.
Zhu Bai thought that maybe Zhu Xi wanted to talk about the Dongcheng Military and Horse Division, so he quickly asked Fugui to invite him in.
Zhu Xi came in and bowed to Zhu Bai first.
Zhu Bai hurriedly returned the gift.
Zhu Tie said: "Thank you very much, my twelfth brother, for saving my fourth brother."
That's what it was for.
Although Zhu Ruo looked at the gods and had a bad mind, he was also a well-informed and thoughtful person.
Zhu Bai smiled: "Fifth brother, you're welcome, he's my brother too."
Zhu Zhu shook his head: "You are still young and don't understand. Apart from my father, he is the only relative I have."
Zhu Bai made no sound.
He sympathized with Zhu Xi and Zhu Di. These two people would have suffered a lot in this palace without the protection of their mother since they were young.
Fortunately, they are not the only ones who have no mother around Queen Ma.
However, he is not the kind of person who is overflowing with sympathy. The shortcomings of others in life have nothing to do with him, so he has no intention of comforting Zhu Ru.
Zhu Rui said: "In order to thank my twelfth brother, I spent several days specially making a Shiquan Dabu Pill and sending it to my brother."
He took out a small, delicate, palm-sized box from his pocket.
Fugui waved his hands desperately behind Zhu Bai, telling Zhu Bai not to accept it.
Zhu Tong liked to play with medicinal herbs, and he often made random prescriptions and forced the eunuchs and maids to drink them.
What the hell is this Shiquan Dabu Pill? It's probably more poisonous than arsenic.
It's just that Zhu Ru has a sincere look on his face. If he refuses, Zhu Ru will definitely come to see him off again.
"Thank you." Zhu Bai took the box with a smile.
Only then did Zhu Ru leave happily.
Fugui hurriedly came up and said, "Your Highness, you can't eat it."
"Don't worry, I won't be stupid enough to be a guinea pig for him. He can only harm those who harm his own palace." Zhu Bai put the small box on the table and smiled, "I don't know, Fifth Brother
Why are you so obsessed with herbal medicine?"
Fugui sighed softly: "Probably because Concubine Ji died of illness."
Zhu Bai heard this name for the first time and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Who?"
Fugui hurriedly shook his head: "It's nothing. It doesn't matter that His Highness doesn't know."
"I know." A voice said.
Zhu Bai turned around and met Zhu Ju's round eyes.
Zhu Ju came in without knowing when, and climbed onto the stool behind Zhu Bai.
Zhu Ju continued: "Concubine Ji is the biological mother of the fourth and fifth brothers. My biological mother is Queen Ma."
Zhu Bai and Fugui couldn't help but look at her with sympathetic eyes, thinking to themselves: Silly children, Zhu Di and Zhu Xi thought the same way when they were young.
Zhu Ju stared at the small box on the table with bright eyes and asked, "What is this? Is it delicious?"
Zhu Bai said vaguely: "Can't eat it, it doesn't taste good, it's bitter."
Zhu Ju said "oh".
Zhu Bai just wanted to get rid of this trouble quickly and said loudly to the outside: "Where are the people around Princess Shouchun? Did the princess come out alone?! You slaves really don't remember things."
Princess Shouchun's nanny Li hurriedly came in and bowed to Zhu Bai: "Your Highness, please atone for your sins. I don't know why the princess came to you."
Zhu Bai waved his hand: "Take the princess back quickly."
Aunt Li quickly picked up Zhu Ju.
Zhu Bai thought Zhu Ju was going to cry for a while, but Zhu Ju didn't say a word.
Zhu Bai felt strange in his heart. When he saw Zhu Ju burying her head in the crook of Nanny Li's neck, he thought maybe she was just tired.
Grandma Li had already reached the palace gate, when Zhu Ju suddenly raised her head and gave Zhu Bai a wicked smile.
No, no, no.
Alarm bells rang in Zhu Bai's heart.
Fugui asked Zhu Bai: "Your Highness, what should I do with this Shiquan Dabu Pill?"
Zhu Bai stared at the direction in which Aunt Li and the others disappeared, and answered absentmindedly: "Throw away the medicine and keep the box."
Fugui muttered: "Hey, why are the meatballs missing? Has the monkey eaten it?"
Zhu Bai suddenly turned around and saw Brother Monkey playing with the empty box.
He opened Brother Monkey's mouth and said, "Spit it out, you can't eat this."
Brother Monkey opened his mouth, but there was nothing inside.
Zhu Bai suddenly realized that it was Zhu Ju who secretly ate the meatballs.
Damn, this naughty child, the more she is not allowed to eat, the more she wants to eat.
