I rushed here in a hurry and didn't take a closer look at the palace. This time I stepped back and saw the decoration here and couldn't help but gasp. There were many authentic works by famous artists along the way. It's hard to find so many here.

It seems that Li Shanchang is richer than he thought, including these tables and chairs, which are made of fine wood and fine workmanship.

Zhu Shangbing couldn't help but sigh with emotion, secretly saying that this place was even more magnificent than the Linde Hall where he lived.

From a distance, I noticed the figure sitting in the hall. He was wearing a gray robe and was much thinner than the last time we met, but his eyes were the same as before.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came here unexpectedly, but he has something important to do?"

Li Shanchang was puzzled by the unexpected visitor.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Shangbing did not answer, but rolled up his sleeves and walked to the backyard. Li Qi, who passed by, had a blank face. Only Li Shanchang was smiling and in a good mood.

Not long after, I saw two people approaching.

Zhu Shangbing came over carrying Li Mao with a warm smile on his face. But the latter's nose was bruised and his face was swollen, so it was not difficult to see who had done it.

Even Li Shanchang, who had guessed who he was going to bring here, couldn't help but twitch the corners of his lips and hesitated to speak.

"Don't worry, this kid doesn't feel well without being beaten. I came here today to discuss something with you."

After Zhu Shangbing finished speaking, he did not continue to speak and stood behind him.

After all the servants were dismissed by Li Qi, he spoke again.

"I want to take your grandson to the Northern Expedition."

While talking, he also deliberately picked up Li Mao, who had been beaten beyond recognition.

The latter struggled violently when he heard this, and all his reluctance was reflected in his movements.

Li Qi, who loved his son eagerly, wanted to reach out and snatch his second son back.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was interrupted.

"good."

Li Shanchang finalized the matter with gratitude in his eyes.

He had just guessed when he saw Zhu Shangbing bringing this direct grandson that the prince personally asked for the favor from the emperor at the banquet yesterday.

Even if the plan fails, he can still keep his Li family blood alive.

In the hands of Zhu Shangbing, Li Mao gradually gave up his struggle.

He was beaten and doubted that life was enough. Why did he endure so many things he shouldn't have to endure at such a young age?

Logically speaking, it is most suitable for the elder brother to be of the same age as Zhu Shangbing.

But...

"You are young, just go and help walk around. I won't let you fight. I have other plans."

Zhu Shangbing did not have high hopes for Li Mao, but looked forward to Deng Quan more than him.

A tiger father has no dog sons.

Although Deng Quan is the youngest son of his maternal grandfather, he is not much different.

Both the Deng family and the Li family will be affected by the case of Zhu Yuanzhang and Hu Weiyong.

He is giving a chance, and if you do it well, there will be no problem.

"No, he is already fourteen, and he will be crowned next year. The Li family can no longer provide him with shelter, so he can only fight by himself and rob him on horseback."

Li Shanchang knew that Zhu Shangbing was interested in supporting him, and felt a little lucky in his heart.

He stood up and walked to Li Mao, looking at his bruised and purple face, his eyes full of love.

It's not like she's talking to him, but she's talking to herself.

"Thanks for letting you practice martial arts in the first place. Although you are not in a formal form, you have a lot of fights. Practice hard this month, and the Li family will rely on you."

The other one is naturally the eldest grandson Li Fang.

They did not say these things out loud, only Li Mao heard a few words here.

From the conversations of several people, he gradually fell silent.

After a long time, when Zhu Shangbing was about to leave and said he would come back in a few days, Li Mao took the initiative to take a step forward.

"Your Majesty, please be patient. This opportunity must not be missed and will never come back. Li Mao is willing to follow your Majesty through fire and water."

Li Qi, who was still a little worried, was completely relieved.

As he watched the carriage go away, the worry in his eyes gradually faded away, replaced by admiration.

"This son has an immeasurable future."

…

The Duke's Mansion of Weiguo.

Deng Zhen, who had been waiting for a long time, waited for the carriage to arrive, but when the people on it got off.

He looked at the boy from the Li family who had taken the lead, and although he smiled, he spared no effort to eliminate Zhu Shangbing.

"I thought my nephew would come to see my uncle as soon as possible, but I never thought that we would have a long way to go."

Hearing this, Zhu Shangbing looked a little embarrassed. It was because he had chosen the distance instead of the near.

Thinking about the one in the Li family who was hard to talk to, who knew that Li Shanchang was out of character and thought he would waste more words. Li Qi was also a hard person to talk to. This time he was surprisingly silent and had a resigned attitude.

It seems that it has something to do with Li Shanchang.

Thinking about it, when a person is about to die, he will always seek more blessings for his family.

He came to Li Mao to save a chance of survival. Thinking of Li Qi's appearance and the ending of being imprisoned until death, he couldn't help but sigh.

We still don’t know when Zhu Yuanzhang will take action.

Zhu Shangbing sighed deeply in his heart and wanted to catch Deng Quan according to the plan.

Unexpectedly, the boy appeared the next second, holding the package in his hand as a salute, as if he was ready.

At a glance, he could tell who made it, and Zhu Shangbing couldn't help but question in his heart, are his mother Deng Shi and Deng Zhen related?

The difference is huge.

I originally thought that Deng Zhen was just a warrior, but someone who could guarantee that Deng's power would remain unbroken in the army was not an ordinary person.

It's because his understanding is too simple and he never thought about someone pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

"Since you already know, uncle, I will take uncle away."

Deng Zhen didn't reply, nodded and went to play with the flowers and plants.

Zhu Shangbing was ashamed of his perfunctory attitude, but thinking that he was about to go on the Northern Expedition and might have to use Deng to act, he did not continue to fight.

The most important thing is to train these dudes. They all have something in them, but they never use it. If you find a sparring partner, you will get twice the result with half the effort.

only……

Looking at the list in his hand, Zhu Shangbing sighed.

There are also many young masters from general families waiting for him to amuse themselves.

…

The matter of Zhu Shangbing taking the dandy away caused a stir in the city.

This incident was soon known to Zhu Yuanzhang, who was stunned when he heard about it.

"What is the boy from the second family doing?"

So many dandies have all been sent to the Linde Hall. If they all join forces and become despondent with things in the future, will it deviate from the ending of the simulator?

Du Andao was speechless after hearing this and didn't know how to answer.

Yesterday, the person above also mentioned that he was curious about who Zhu Shangbing would take to the Northern Expedition. Today, he received news that they were all dandies. Although they all had good backgrounds, they all came from general families.

But even if you have some foundation, you can't use it as a top soldier!

There were several boys from the Duke's family alone, and even those from Li Shan's family got involved.

His father is an only son and his mother is Princess Lin'an.

The top second generation, go to charge into battle.

Zhu Yuanzhang was puzzled and could not figure out Zhu Shangbing's intention.

Just at this moment, a little eunuch hurriedly came outside and almost tripped over the threshold. When he got closer, he saw that his face was stained with color. He didn't even have time to straighten his crooked hat and shouted.

"It's not good! Your Majesty!"
