Chapter 929 Blessed appearance

7days ago Historical fiction 7
The guards stayed on the south bank of the river and only started crossing the river in September.

The flood season of the river is at the turn of summer and autumn. At that time, the river water is very turbulent, and it is very difficult for a large group of people to cross the river smoothly.

But after autumn and until the spring of the following year, the water flow will continue to decrease, and the river water may be less than 20% of the flood season.

This is also the reason why the Central Plains dynasty could not rely on the river to block the invasion of the northern enemy. In comparison, the Great Chain was more stable.

After crossing the river, people followed the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain and marched northward.The road was very smooth.

Eight days later, the army arrived outside the city of Zhangde.

Each tribe crossed the river from a stone arch bridge. Zhu Gaoxu watched the surrounding scenes in the carriage, and saw that the terrain was flat.

In late autumn in the north, the plants and trees are far less lush than in the south, but the weeping willows on the river bank still embellish the scenery around with a touch of green.

After a while, a sound of drums came faintly in front of him.Then Zhu Gaoxu discovered the crowd on the road, with flags floating in the middle, and there were many people around him, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.

Because before the Northern Tour, the capital had issued a report that local officials were strictly prohibited from driving away the people to welcome the emperor, and Zhu Gaoxu's men did not enter the city on the way, so he was quite quiet along the way.

When we arrived at Zhangde Mansion, the situation was completely different.

How could Zhu Gaoxu’s only brother Gao Sui not be here?

Zhu Gaoxu's ceremonial guard gradually approached the crowd.At this time, a man in a red robe walked over from a distance and was walking in the front. Of course, the person coming was Gao Sui.

Seeing this, Zhu Gaoxu also asked the carriage to stop and walked out of the carriage.

Second brother, second brother... Gao Sui shouted anxiously from afar, Master!He ran over with his robe and tried hard.

When he saw Zhu Gaoxu, Gao Sui looked overjoyed and immediately knelt down: I am welcome to the emperor.Zhu Gaoxu stepped forward to support him and said: Third brother, I finally saw you.I miss you every day.Gao Sui said with all his emotions.

In full view of everyone, the two stood between the ceremonial guards from north to south, still expressing their longing affectionately.

Zhu Gaoxu slapped Gao Shui's arm with his palm: Third brother is getting fat.Gao Sui smiled and said: I am nearly thirty years old and I should have grown flesh.My second brother is not fat, and it seems that he has lost a little weight.And today's peace is coming, you don't have to work too hard.Zhu Gaoxu said: Fortunately, I often run and exercise.But if I say something heart-to-heart, the person I envy the most is my third brother.Of course, my life is good now.Gao Suidu: The second brother should benefit all the people.My brother is really comfortable, just don’t cause trouble for my second brother.Zhu Gaoxu Haha laughed: Take my car and let’s go into the city.The two brothers got on the imperial carriage and walked towards the city gate under the ceremonial guards and guards.

The car drove to the crowd, and the officials of the Zhao Palace, civil and military officials of the Zhangde Palace, and the onlookers all knelt down beside the road, and long live the cry one after another.

The drum beating in the city did not stop, and then the magnificent and steady bells and drums were played, and the city was immediately shrouded in a graceful and noble atmosphere.

When the carriage drove into the city, Zhu Gaoxu saw at least hundreds of musicians lined up to play music on the roadside.

A large group of people headed straight towards the Zhao Palace.

This royal palace has been built for less than two years, but Gao Sui's royal palace is not much different from the Han palace far away in Yunnan. The prince's mansion has the same ritual system, which is a bit similar to a smaller imperial palace.

When people entered from the Duanli Gate, the square in front of Chengyun Hall became lively.

The officials and eunuchs of the Zhao Palace were busy receiving the emperor's entourage everywhere.

The people around Zhu Gaoxu are all senior officials, and any civil servant may affect the entire Zhangde Mansion's government orders, so no one dares to neglect them.

Fortunately, there are more than 100 houses on both sides of the three halls in front, and many people can be accommodated in the Zhao Palace alone.

Gao Sui first welcomed Zhu Gaoxu and others into Chengyun Hall, and soon asked his new princess to pay homage to the emperor, who was the second daughter of Duke Weida of Wei.

Before getting married, the ladies of a family usually do not meet men, so it is the first time that Zhu Gaoxu has seen Veda's second daughter.

Zhu Gaoxu heard in advance that Veda's daughter looked blessed, and he understood that it was just a little fat.

But when Zhu Gaoxu saw it with his own eyes, he realized that he was a little fat, and he was very fat, his torso was like a bucket, and there was no trace of the lines at all.

Her father, Veda, is a strong man, and obviously the figures of the father and daughter are not similar at all.

Wei's belly is very big, and Zhu Gaoxu can't remember whether he had received a good memorial from Gao Sui.

Because she was too fat, Zhu Gaoxu didn't dare to rashly confirm whether she was happy when she saw Wei's belly.

I will bow to the emperor.Wei was about to kneel down.

Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly made a helping move and said: I'm fine, I'm fine, I don't have to be polite to my family.He dared not say he was paying attention to pregnancy or something. If he was not pregnant, it would be a big blow to people.

Wei hurriedly thanked him and said: I am inconvenient, so thank you for your kindness.Gao Suidao: The doctor said he had been five or six months old.Zhu Gaoxu breathed a sigh of relief and said: Duke Wei is also in the army, so he should be outside at this time. After a while, Princess Zhao will go to see him. He must be very happy.You can sit in the chair for a while.Wei said quietly: I obey the order and thank the emperor for giving him a seat.Zhu Gaoxu looked at Gao Sui, and his expression might have no choice but to show apology.

He wanted to say: Brother, I really didn't mean to cheat you.

But I asked you before I decided on this marriage, and you can't blame me all if you don't protest yourself.

But Gao Sui looked confused, as if he didn't feel Zhu Gaoxu's mood at all.

He looked very satisfied with Wei Shi, and he carefully helped Wei Shi sit on the chair and reminded him: Please wait.Zhu Gaoxu thought about it and found that Gao Sui probably raised many beauties and actors, and he only cared about the princess as the daughter of the emperor's direct nobleman.

Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoxu was relieved.

I brought 100 million new silver coins for my brother and brought them into the palace.Zhu Gaoxu said, "I didn't come in person when my third brother and sister-in-law get married, so I will give you some gifts this time."One hundred million new money is equivalent to 200,000 old copper coins, which is not even for the prince.

Gao Sui hurriedly said: Second brother is so nice to me. I am a little short of money... I will definitely save some money in the future.Wei touched Gao Sui gently, and he immediately said: I am grateful to the emperor for his kindness and reward.Zhu Gaoxu said: This money was taken from the inner palace and there is no official document.In the future, we will reward relatives and nobles with low profile and will no longer issue edicts.Otherwise, when the people heard this, they thought that the royal family would spend tens of thousands of years, would they feel relieved?Even ordinary officials will be dissatisfied.Gao Sui nodded and said: My second brother is right, so it is better not to be hated for nothing.Just then, several more people walked into the hall, including five or six women.

They are Mu Zhen, Yao Ji, Duan Xuehen, and the waitresses.

When Zhu Gaoxu turned around and recognized that one of them was Xu, Xu Zhang's daughter, the former Princess of Zhao.

Xu came with Duan Xueheng.

The situation was a little awkward. Zhu Gaoxu turned to look at Gao Sui, and the two brothers looked at each other.

Mu Zhen and Yao Ji stepped forward, saluted Zhu Gaoxu first, and then went forward to meet King Zhao and Princess Zhao.Wei didn't dare to sit down. She wanted to stand up, so Gao Sui hurriedly stepped forward and helped her.

I have seen the imperial concubine and the virtuous concubine, but I have a poor health and neglected etiquette. Don’t take it to your heart.Wei said softly.

Yao Ji said: Sister, don’t be dissatisfied.The emperor and King Zhao are brothers, and the Duke of Wei and our family are also brothers who serve the emperor.After Xianfei said this, I was so happy.Wei said affectionately.

However, the beauty of Yao Ji and Mu Zhen seemed to stimulate Wei, especially Mu Zhen's slim figure, so Wei still said to herself: I was not so fat before, but I was quite slim. Later, my father got the holy family and suddenly became rich. I didn’t pay attention to the meal, but I couldn’t lose weight again when I became fat. Mu Zhen said: Don’t care, the princess, as long as she is healthy, it is better than anything else. Gao Sui said with a smile: This is called a blessing, the second brother said. Zhu Gaoxu was speechless.

He could not defend himself, otherwise wouldn’t he say that Wei really couldn’t see it?

Mu Zhen turned her head slightly and pretended not to hear Gao Sui's words.

At first, the princess whom I found for Gao Sui was Mu Zhen.

However, this incident failed because of the death of his father and Mu Sheng who defected to Zhu Gaoxu.

Now Mu Zhen has become Zhu Gaoxu's imperial concubine.

The scene became more and more embarrassing, and Xu's eyes were silently paying attention to Gao Sui and his fat princess.

Things in the world are impermanent, and they were originally a couple who were in love with each other, but now Gao Sui ignored Xu and seemed to know him. He didn't know him. He didn't know what Xu was feeling.

Gao Sui said again: My brother’s front palace is called Fengxiáng Palace, and my second brother has lived with me for a while.The second brother can move the car to rest for a while. When the banquet is ready, my brother will come and invite you.Zhu Gaoxu said: If I live in my third brother's harem, how can I become?Just around this Chengyun Hall, just find a small courtyard as an palace.Gao Suidu: How dare I make such a arrangement for my second brother?Zhu Gaoxu said calmly: Chengyun Hall is the main hall of the royal palace, and it is very appropriate for me to live nearby.Otherwise, those people around me would come and go in the harem of my third brother, for fear of losing the royal face.When Gao Sui heard this, he stopped persuading. He immediately turned around and shouted: Come on, ask Huang Taiping to take his people to clean up the houses on the west side immediately.After he gave the order, he turned to Zhu Gaoxu and said: I am surrounded by stupid people who are slapped with their beards and horses. Huang Taiping is also stupid.However, I don’t have much importance, so it’s better to use stupid people to do some trivial matters.Zhu Gaoxu was also a little surprised that his third brother was still using Huang Taiping.

They continued to keep quiet, but they knew very well that they did not mention a single sentence about the people and things about the elder brother Gao Chi.

Perhaps this is the case with the royal family. Zhu Gaoxu occasionally feels that his third brother is more open-minded than anyone else.
