As a second-generation top official, Chang Mao has always been unruly and has a bad temper. He can be considered confident.

Who let his father be Chang Shiwan, and who made his nephew the emperor's grandson? Moreover, this emperor's grandson also attached great importance to his relatives and was very affectionate to the Chang family.

Seeing Xu Yungong, the second-generation top official, Chang Mao burst out laughing, "Huizu, why don't you show respect to your uncle?!"

Xu Yungong had a straight face, there was really nothing he could do about Chang Mao, a bastard.

This is Chang Mao's character. If Zhu Xiongying hadn't left Chang Mao in Yingtian Mansion before, Chang Mao in history would have stabbed Naha Chu when he surrendered, causing Naha Chu's troops to collapse. Then there was Chang Mao

He and his father-in-law, Feng Sheng, pushed each other so hard that Chang Mao was demoted...

Chang Mao didn't care about this, patted Xu Yungong's shoulder and said, "It's true of you that you didn't look for me when you arrived in Peiping! I remember when we were young, we rode horses and fought together."

Xu Yungong had no choice but to say, "Mr. Zheng, these times are different from the past. The two of us have already received the title, so it is not a good thing to go around in private. Loyalty to the king and the country is what we should do, so that we can live up to the reputation of our fathers."

"Uncle Xu, how can you be so boring?" Chang Mao continued to be careless, really asking for punishment, "If you ask me, Uncle Xu is not as boring as you! His Highness ordered me to wait, I think so.

I want to give you a banquet. Don’t say that your uncle doesn’t take care of you. If you are like this in private, don’t blame His Highness for not getting close to you!”

The free-spirited Chang Mao is just in his early thirties and still has no heirs. He used to be a lawless little overlord in Yingtian Mansion. Now he is still like this in Peiping. Basically no one can control him. Basically, he makes big mistakes without making small mistakes.

But considering his father and his nephew, everyone turned a blind eye.

And Xu Yungong was just in his early twenties, with a beautiful face and extraordinary handsome appearance. As the eldest son of Zhongshan King Xu Da, Xu Yungong could be regarded as a leader of the younger generation, without any appearance of a dandy.

Wang Chengen naturally knew the importance of Xu Yungong and Chang Mao, and led the two princes towards the study.

"Sit down." Zhu Xiongying said casually with a smile, "Forget it, uncle. I'll just be more casual. We are a family together, so we won't talk about those false etiquette."

Xu Yungong's expression was serious, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness is so kind to me, I feel ashamed to accept it. It's just..."

Chang Mao said directly and carelessly, "Your Highness, you're welcome."

After saying this, Chang Mao tugged at Xu Yungong and felt that Xu Yungong was really dishonest. At this time, he had to give Xu Yungong a strict look, which was the most unpleasant thing.

Zhu Xiongying smiled and nodded, and then said, "You guys should also listen. Now that I'm out of Peiping, many military affairs have yet to be sorted out. The northern border defense is extremely important, and we need to pay more attention to it."

Chang Mao was puzzled and said, "Your Highness, didn't Your Majesty ask me to dredge the canal or build Tianjin Gate?"

This time it was Xu Yungong's turn to be speechless. Uncle Chang must have died young, so Chang Mao was such a naughty man. If Uncle Chang were here, Chang Mao would definitely not be as virtuous as he is now.

Song Zhong came, and after seeing the ceremony, he said, "Your Highness, the three guards of the King of Yan have jurisdiction over thirteen thousand people. The King of Yan has been in power for eight years, building cities and farming, training generals and soldiers, inspecting key points, and supervising the construction of weapons. The three guards of the King of Yan have strong horses and are well-trained."

This is relatively normal. The main reason is that in order to ensure the long-term stability of the Ming Dynasty, Lao Zhu tried every means to strengthen the power of the royal family. He named some princes as vassal princes and stationed them at the northern border and strategic locations across the country. He wanted to use them to ward off the vassal royal family.

.

Among them, the King of Yan, Zhu Di, and the King of Jin, Zhu Fan, were also in very special positions. Therefore, Lao Zhu once specially ordered the two kings' armies to resolve minor matters themselves and only report major matters to the court.

Zhu Xiongying immediately asked, "Does the Fourth Emperor's uncle have any contacts with the civil and military officials of Beiping Mansion?"

Song Zhong immediately handed over a memorial, which not only recorded the interactions between King Yan Zhu Di and some military generals in Peiping, but also included records of interactions with some local officials. Among the three guards of King Yan, some responded to King Yan's edict to Tianfu,

The dissatisfaction and discussion about the emperor's grandson sitting in Peiping.

Zhu Xiongying took a look and then said, "That's it, don't pay too much attention to these things."

Song Zhong couldn't help but care that the emperor's grandson said this, maybe it was because the emperor's grandson was generous. But it was also possible that it was because the emperor's grandson was trying to beat him.

There is really no need to make a big fuss about this matter, but we must not relax, we must keep an eye on what should be paid attention to, and we must not be careless in any way, and we must not miss the important event of our great grandson.

This can be regarded as the official end of the day's official work. Zhu Xiongying stood up with a smile and said, "Let's go to dinner. It's bitterly cold in Beiping. Feel free to eat something first."

Chang Mao said carelessly, "As long as there is wine and meat, I like it!"

"Uncle, if you come here often, you will definitely have enough food and wine." Zhu Xiongying smiled and pulled Chang Mao's arm and said, "It's just uncle, if grandma knows that uncle drinks again, I think she will be angry."

Chang Mao looked a little embarrassed, and then said, "My mother has already sent a letter, and she will come to Peking next month. By then, I will not have a good life, and I will be detained all day."

"Then uncle will go out on business, and grandma won't be able to control her anymore." Zhu Xiongying said with a bad idea, "But grandma is really strict in running the house, and the Duke of Liang's house has been reorganized, so he has become more peaceful.

"

Zhu Xiongying's grandmother, Chang Yuchun's wife, Lan Yu's sister, these are not simple roles. After Lan Yu was beaten continuously, Chang Lan didn't care so much anymore. She was in charge of the Chang family, and the Lan family.

She is also in charge of things.

The men go out to fight and run errands. She wants to keep the inner house in order. Those arrogant and domineering villagers and evil slaves can't even cry now.

"But when grandma comes to Peking, I have to respond to Tianfu." Zhu Xiongying thought for a while and said, "I'd better write a family letter to grandma. Forget it next year. If I go back and forth, it will probably be a march. Grandma doesn't want to follow me.

Together."

After saying this, Zhu Xiongying was a little worried, "Uncle, have you invited the doctor to take a look? Grandma should have become anxious these years?"

Chang Mao was embarrassed. He had no heirs in his early thirties, and his two younger brothers now had no heirs. There were countless rumors outside, and they all said that Chang Shiwan killed and wounded Tianhe.

It’s really hard to say much about these things. No one knows whether such things are true or not, and no one knows whether such things are reasonable.

Xu Yungong actually had some discomforts. Although he knew that the emperor's grandson would soon become his brother-in-law, in the education Xu Yungong received since childhood, there was naturally a difference between emperor and minister.

Just like his father, King Zhongshan, even though he was a fellow countryman of the emperor, he had been friends since childhood and was the first hero in the founding of the country. However, over the years, his father had always been respectful and cautious when kissing in front of the emperor.

Although he was a little uneasy, Xu Yungong had seen the world after all. He just kept his words low and cautious, not as careless as Chang Mao, and not a little rude like Chang Mao.

Zhu Xiongying is more optimistic about Xu Yungong, mainly because Xu Yungong is indeed the leader among the younger generation. His elder brother-in-law is also well-established and Miaohong. Under the guidance of Xu Da, King of Zhongshan, he can become Zhu Xiongying's best assistant in handling military power in the future.

As for Zhu Xiongying's uncle, he really doesn't think much of it. Zhu Xiongying just hopes that his uncle will not make some big mistakes that will make people angry in the future, otherwise he will be in trouble.

Zhu Xiongying is really not very optimistic about Li Jinglong's cousin. He is a good soldier on paper, and there is no problem in training. It just needs some experience to be useful, but when he thinks of what Li Jinglong will do in the future, Zhu Xiongying instinctively

will also be disgusted.

Looking at Xu Yungong, who had been silent, Zhu Xiongying said, "Brother, my uncle is also working hard these days. He trains with Duke Ying. Please ask for advice. I know that my uncle has also gone out to train. It's just this training.

There is still a difference between fighting and fighting."

Xu Yungong immediately stood up and said, "I accept your order."

Zhu Xiongying immediately laughed and said, "Next year, if there is a chance, my uncle will lead the troops to Mobei. We won't fight a big war. Not to mention fighting as a substitute for training, we can't let Can Yuan have a chance.

pant."

Now that Zhu Xiongying has come to Peiping, he naturally has more things to do. In terms of some major national affairs, he will definitely not come here blindly.

But there are some things that he can still decide a little bit.
