Chapter 1: My Brother-in-law is a Prince
The second year of the Great Ming Yongle.
Dusk is approaching, but the Forbidden City, located at the foot of Zhongshan Mountain in Nanjing City, is already lit up like daytime.
Continuous glazed roof ridge like a long dragon, has been extended to the Forbidden City corner of the East Palace.
The East Palace’s courtyard undulates, but at this time, someone is so anxious to stamp his feet, shouting under his breath, “Stop, stop ……”
Speaking person panting, face is white, he wore gun suit, gun suit embroidered with nine chapters of flowers, but because of this gun suit sleeve hem is too long, running up to make him more clumsy and woeful.
At this time, the person who ran ahead poked his head out from the moon hole, but it was a twelve or thirteen year old teenager.
This teenager said with a palpitating look on his face, “If brother-in-law doesn’t hit me, I won’t run.”
Thus, the person who was panting in the back chasing after him was on fire in an instant, and said through gritted teeth, “If the son doesn’t teach, the father’s fault, if I don’t teach you a hard lesson today, won’t you still have to go up to the house tomorrow?”
The young man then immediately said in a loud voice, “But you’re not my father.”
The man in the robe of gun couldn’t be bothered to be civilized, and with wide eyes, he said in a loud voice, “An elder brother is like a father.”
“Nor my brother ……”
Then the man in the robe of gun bellowed again, “I am your brother-in-law!”
The teenager was obviously still trying to argue.
At this time, along the wall of the moon cave, a few tiptoe eunuchs took advantage of this teenager in the spaced out conversation, but coldly to the back of the teenager, one of them like a vicious dog pouncing on the general, a hand will be the teenager yanked, the mouth surprised, “Your Highness, Your Highness, the crown prince, people took hold of it, took hold of it.”
When he shouted, the teenager wanted to struggle, but the other eunuchs had already rushed up, this one yanked his arm, that one hugged his leg, just like a magnet, and they dragged the teenager so hard that he couldn’t move.
The man in gunmetal who was called the Crown Prince, then took a long breath and said, “Don’t hurt him!”
The Prince then remembered his grooming, and with his hands behind his back, he became airy and slowly paced forward.
The teenager shouted, “You sneak attack, asshole, I’ll clean you up later.”
Seemingly not yet relieved of her hatred, she continued to struggle while saying, “Sister, sister, help!”
When that Prince angrily came to heel.
The teenager was already exhausted from being dragged by several eunuchs, and the crown prince was tall and somewhat obese, blocking the front of the teenager like a wall.
The teenager’s head snapped down at this point, and he said in a raw, brittle voice, “Brother-in-law, I was wrong!”
The crown prince was still angry, suddenly his face was slightly milder, and his voice tone was obviously calmer: “Where is the fault?”
“I shouldn’t hit people.”
“How dare you next time?”
The teenager conceded, “Next time …… don t dare again.”
The Crown Prince waved his hand and the eunuchs retreated before adding, “Go to the bookstore and talk.”
This crown prince in front of him was none other than His Royal Highness, Zhu Gaoqi, the crown prince of the dynasty.
The teenager, however, is Zhang Anshi, the half-brother of the Crown Princess Zhang.
Zhang Anshi’s father died in the war of Emperor Yongle’s war of pacification, so negligent discipline, and because his brother-in-law Zhu Gaoqi is a kind person, so in this Nanjing city, Zhang Anshi young age, has been a famous playboy.
Today Zhang Anshi and beat people, was the East Palace of the officer complained to the Prince Zhu Gaoqi’s face, Zhu Gaoqi furious, this is intended to clean up this brother-in-law a good deal.
But in the end he was soft, although looking at this kid on the gas, and so on the bookstore, after taking a seat, the anger dissipated a large part, but first sighed and said: “You are so young love to fool around, is the fault of the Palace ah. Give me sit down.”
“Oh.” Zhang Anshi was not afraid of Zhu Gaoqi, but now that his brother-in-law was furious, he still honestly knelt down and sat on the side, putting on a well-behaved appearance.
Coming to this world has been half a year, at first, Zhang Anshi was shocked, terrified, and uneasy, but slowly …… he began to integrate into this era, and of course, the most important thing is that …… in this world, he has the love and care of this crown prince s brother in law and crown princess sister in front of him.
At this time, Zhu Gaoqi glanced at him and saw that he was suddenly peaceful and honest, and shushed him, “Why are you hitting people?”
“That man was selling fake medicine and I poked him.” When Zhang Anshi said this, he pulled his voice like that drug dealer, “Then he said to me: young people should not talk nonsense, if not, you will suffer. ”
Zhang Anshi shrugged his shoulders, showing a helpless look, and continued, “I saw him say that, so I had to beat him.”
Zhu Gaoqi: “……”
Zhu Gaoqi’s face twitched and finally said with a stern face, “Gentlemen make peace, small people fight. There is no more injustice in the world, and it is not …… possible.”
Zhang Anshi immediately said, “I know I’m wrong.”
“I’m not finished, don’t interrupt.”
“Ah …… then brother-in-law take your time.”
Zhu Gaoqi opened his mouth, “You are a royal relative, so you can’t fight with others, if not, where is the decency? Your sister spoiled you, but this palace is the crown prince, how can you indulge you?”
Said, Zhu Gaoqi lowered his voice some: “Not to mention that there are many ears and eyes in the palace, and you don’t compete, do you know that …… father the other day …… also heard about you… …”
Zhang Anshi said in his heart, the current emperor Zhu Di is not also a ruthless person? His own nephew, Zhu Yunwen, was cut down, I am following his example.
But ……… is his reputation already so bad that it actually reaches the heavens?
This couldn’t help but worry Zhang Anshi.
You should know that the current emperor has three sons, and although his brother-in-law is the crown prince, the emperor prefers King Han Zhu Gaoxu.
But can you blame him? Since he crossed over to this world, he had remained honest for the vast majority of the time, and only yesterday had he beaten up a vendor selling counterfeit medicine.
And he was infamous, on the one hand, because the original owner of the body was not a good bird, on the other hand, I’m afraid that it was because someone deliberately slandered him in front of the emperor.
Looking at brother-in-law Zhu Gaoqi worried look, Zhang Anshi heart thumped, not, can not continue to go on like this, I want to redo, clean up, and strive to leave a good impression.
Only then did Zhu Gaoqi say, “Alright, the next one will not be an example.”
“Oh.” Zhang Anshi nodded honestly.
“Hungry?”
Zhang Anshi shook his head.
Zhu Gaoqi sitting on his knees, see Zhang Anshi aggrieved look …… his naive face, contemplating for a moment, before suddenly muttering to himself, “Those few companions did not hurt you, right?”
Zhang Anshi shook his head, “It’s okay, just that his arm hurts a bit.”
Zhu Gaoqi said, “Chastise them later and take it out on you.”
Standing aside Dao eunuch body slightly trembled, wrongly slightly raised his head, and then busy hanging down his head.
Zhu Gaoqi and let Zhang Anshi kneel and sit beside himself, then stroked Zhang Anshi’s back with his hand and sighed: “You are too confused, although I am the crown prince, but my father is not satisfied with me, because of this, I live in the East Palace, but more to be careful with my words and actions. Anshi, in the future, you can no longer fool around, fortunately, your sister does not know about this matter, otherwise ……”
Zhang Anshi has been a man for two lifetimes, and he immediately understood Zhu Gaoqi’s mind.
He is now an imperial relative, but he is notorious, the Yongle Emperor is not satisfied with the Crown Prince, if someone else takes his evil deeds as the Crown Prince’s brother-in-law to the Yongle Emperor to add fuel to the fire, it will be very unfavorable to the Crown Prince.
Zhang Anshi can slowly adapt in this world, thanks to the care and love of the crown prince brother-in-law on weekdays. Zhu Gaoqi may not be an honest man, but he has nothing to say about this wife and brother of his.
So Zhang Anshi immediately said with vigor, “Don’t worry, brother-in-law, I’ve decided, from tomorrow onwards, I’ll be a new man, and I won’t let anyone say that I’m full of evil in the future.”
Zhu Gaoqi guffawed and only stroked Zhang Anshi’s back intimately, “It’s good that you have this heart.”
It was obvious that he did not believe in Zhang Anshi’s betting oath.
At this, Zhang Anshi was indignant. Is there no credit for this?
Being grabbed by Zhu Gaoqi, and educated on how to behave, Zhang Anshi was then released from the East Palace.
Once out of the Eastern Palace, Zhang Anshi immediately looked like a bird out of a cage.
Outside the East Palace, there was someone who had been waiting with eager anticipation, dressed in a green coat and hat, and as soon as he saw Zhang Anshi come out, he immediately greeted him and bowed, saying, “Your Excellency, your Excellency hasn’t been punished, has he?”
“Punished, punished for what? Brother-in-law loves me too much. “Zhang Anshi looked at his boy Zhang San with a proud face, having such a brother-in-law in his life, it was not in vain.
In the future, brother-in-law will have to be the emperor!
