Ming Dynasty: The Sixth Brother of the Zhu Family Seeks Immortality

Alas? Following the emperor to the military review, how come you are slack and going out for fun?

"So, Sixth Brother, are you going to the Business Department?"

Zhu Zhankan immediately lay down after hearing this: "I can't, I'm not feeling well."

"Ah?"

"My head hurts all over my body."

Zhu Zhanji's head was full of black lines after hearing this, how many heads do you have!

He sighed in his heart, his good Sixth Brother has changed a lot these days.

He has become more and more outstanding, and he has begun to be indifferent to many things, as if all external things have nothing to do with him.

He stays at home all day, like a big girl, this is not good!

"Sixth Brother, let's go out for a walk, even if we don't go outside the city, it's nice to have some fun in the city."

"Okay."

Zhu Zhankan, who has been practicing for many days without a breakthrough, feels that going out for a walk may find an opportunity for a breakthrough.

The city of Jinling is indeed very prosperous.

Even though Zhu Di had to review his soldiers today and block the city, it was still difficult to conceal the prosperity of the city.

"Brother, are there any merchants in the city selling exotic flowers and plants?"

Zhu Zhankan had already sent his men to collect exotic flowers and plants.

Naturally, he didn't think there would be any gains, he just looked.

"Sixth brother, don't stay at home usually, come out occasionally, maybe there will be unexpected gains."

Zhu Zhanji winked at Zhu Zhankan.

Zhu Zhankan picked up a piece of goods from the roadside stall and looked at it carefully.

The precision of the handicrafts of this era is indeed a little worse, but it is definitely a pure handmade product with good quality.

Hmm? Zhu Zhankan narrowed his eyes slightly, wondering why some merchants didn't focus on attracting customers.

Observe carefully again.

Almost all of them are strong and healthy adult men.

Are these people Jinyiwei?

No, there are no other royal relatives nearby.

Jinyiwei should focus on their two grandchildren.

After a while, the emperor's flag suddenly appeared in the distance!

Zhu Di went out of the city to review the troops openly, not incognito, so he would not do it secretly.

No way?

Seeing the emperor's flag, Zhu Zhankan suddenly had a strange intuition in his mind.

These people are not going to assassinate the king, are they?

Zhu Zhankan's thought just passed his mind.

Suddenly there was a shout.

"Do it!"

Chapter 9 Catching the assassin

Zhu Zhankan, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, pulled his elder brother back.

"Zhankan, when did you become so strong?"

"Brother, when did you become so jumpy, watch the show."

"Sixth brother, you are still talking about me."

The two of them stared at the chaos in front of them, and the surrounding Jinyiwei quickly surrounded them.

Some small vendors who were originally surrounding the busy street noticed the sound of flags waving on the official road next to them, and they rushed out together.

However, on the official road, the leading general who looked like Zhu Di raised his head and looked at these people waiting to die with a grim face.

He gave a soft order: "Archers, prepare to shoot!"

The assassins were caught in the trap, and suffered heavy casualties in an instant. Only a few escaped, and some assassins did not give up their lives and hid.

Beside the street, the Jinyiwei responsible for protecting Zhu Zhanji felt that it was not safe.

So he took the two grandchildren and hid in a house.

In front of the square table, the two brothers sat opposite each other.

"Sixth brother, what's going on with the group of people outside who suddenly started fighting?" Zhu Zhanji looked at Zhu Laoliu with a question mark on his face and asked.

He and his own brother were walking on the street.

Suddenly they were scared away by a group of people with knives!

They are still grandchildren of the emperor. They are still in the imperial city and under the feet of the emperor!

Is there still morality? Is there still law? Is there still the king's law!

Zhu Zhankan raised the tea gourd he carried with him, took a sip, and said, "It looks like they are engaging in a mass brawl."

"Don't joke, look at the group of death warriors rushing out, they are strong and brave, and they are killing in groups on the street, obviously they are assassinating!"

Zhu Zhanji seemed to have thought of something, his expression was solemn, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.

His grandfather went out for a military review, and he should be back at this time.

Will it be the emperor who was assassinated?

No, no, the emperor has Jinyiwei and troops around him, how could he be assassinated?

There are so many troops in the military review, how can these people... know which way the emperor will come back?

Do these people live on the street?

Have they been waiting for an opportunity to assassinate?

The more he thought about it, the more confused Zhu Zhanji felt in his mind.

At this moment, he felt a little dry in the mouth and didn't know what to say.

Originally, the military review held by the emperor was a good action and a morale-boosting display.

"Sixth brother, what should we do now?"

Zhu Zhanji was only a teenager and had never followed the army or supervised the government.

After being trained by Zhu Di, he did have some bearing, but that bearing was far from enough.

"Wait."

"Wait?" Zhu Zhanji was stunned when he heard this word, and subconsciously shrank his body, and hurriedly asked: "Wait for what?"

"Of course, wait for the imperial grandfather's imperial edict. Brother, you have eight hundred households of Jinyiwei under your command. You don't think that the emperor will not send you to search for the rioters, right?"

Zhu Zhankan asked casually: "By the way, brother, how is the development of the steam engine going?"

"It's going well. We have made a preliminary model. My father allocated two thousand taels of gold to continue the research and sent a lot of craftsmen. However, those skilled craftsmen have been sent out for official business. We will study the steam engine when they come back."

When it comes to official business, Zhu Zhanji instantly raised his head and chest and confidently explained his recent work content.

"Good job, keep up the good work, come on." Zhu Zhankan patted his elder brother on the shoulder.

"Hey, you kid!" Just as Zhu Zhanji was about to show his elder brother's majesty.

A eunuch suddenly came in at the door and smiled politely at the two grandchildren.

"Hello, Your Highness, the emperor has given his order."

Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhankan saluted on the side.

"Two grandchildren, catch the assassin together."

"As ordered!"

At the same time, in the Fengtian Hall.

The old man was leaning on a comfortable recliner.

He held several memorials in his hands.

"Don't say it, the young man from the old family is really enjoying himself."

Zhu Di didn't look like he had just dismounted and returned to the palace.

Obviously, he had returned to Fengtian Hall a long time ago, and even dealt with a lot of memorials.

When he saw the four big characters "Jingnan Yigu" in the latest memorial,

Zhu Di snorted coldly: "You guys have finally revealed your true colors."
