Hu Mansion.

Front yard study.

Hearing the footsteps, Hu Weiyong, who was sitting on a chair, frowning and meditating, raised his head and glanced, and happened to see Hu Fei walking in. But he didn't say anything, but his face became more solemn.

"How can you be so messed up with just a stick? Then when I really become the consort, won't you be even more miserable?"

Hu Fei curled his lips and sat on the chair next to him as he spoke, with a relaxed smile on his lips.

"You know everything?"

Hu Weiyong hesitated for a moment, slowly looked up at Hu Fei, and asked with a frown.

"Steward Qin told me that you didn't do anything to Xu Da, but you scared the servants in the house."

Hu Fei nodded and said with a smile.

"Then you can still laugh?! Xu Da is here for me! He just doesn't like me! He's afraid that I will steal his limelight!"

Hu Weiyong snorted coldly and said loudly.

"If you don't laugh, do you still want me to cry?"

"The matter is not as serious as you think. No one can stop me from becoming the consort, and no one has the ability to stop me. This is a sure thing, so why not be happy?"

Hu Fei looked at Hu Weiyong and said with a smile.

"Are you so sure? Where do you get the confidence?!"

Hu Weiyong rolled his eyes at Hu Fei angrily and couldn't help but ask.

"Of course, don't forget, I am the son of the prime minister! No one is more suitable to be the consort than me."

Hu Fei nodded and said with a smile.

"Don't be so playful, I'm telling you something serious! I've already heard that His Majesty seems to have been shaken. He may have believed Xu Da's words, and the old matter may be brought up again!"

Hu Weiyong glared at Hu Fei and said solemnly, with a hint of worry between his brows.

"I'm not kidding. I am the consort. No matter how Xu Da tries to seduce His Majesty, it will all happen naturally. Even if His Majesty has wavered now, I will still have a way to get him to marry the princess to me in the next year."

"What's more, Xu Da thought he was suppressing you and me, but in fact he had offended someone without even knowing it."

Hu Fei sneered and said lightly.

"What do you mean?"

Hu Weiyong was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion.

"Who wants me to be the consort most now?"

Hu Fei smiled, looked at Hu Weiyong, and asked seriously.

"Queen Ma?"

Hu Weiyong thought for a moment and answered tentatively.

"anything else?"

Hu Fei asked with a smile.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince?"

Hu Weiyong continued to think and continued to answer.

Hu Weiyong already knew that Queen Ma and Prince Zhu Biao put in good words for Hu Fei to facilitate his marriage to Princess Anqing.

"Yes, there is also King Yan."

"Regardless of the real intention of the three of them in wanting me to become the consort, they have all decided that I am the best choice for Princess Anqing. If someone suddenly jumps out to hinder this, will they agree?"

Hu Fei smiled, looked at Hu Weiyong confidently and asked.

After listening to Hu Fei's words, Hu Weiyong thought about it seriously, and then he couldn't help but reveal a smile, and the solemn look on his face gradually dissipated.

"So, by doing this, Xu Da not only failed to prevent the planned outcome, but also caused trouble for himself. Do you think I should laugh?"

Hu Fei looked at Hu Weiyong and asked with a smile.

"You brat, if I had known earlier, I wouldn't have had to worry so much about you. I didn't even have dinner!"

Hu Weiyong laughed and cursed, couldn't help laughing, and his mood suddenly improved.

"Just watch, there's no need for me to step forward, someone will speak for me soon."

Hu Fei smiled and said affirmatively.

Hu Weiyong looked at the confident Hu Fei, the smile on his lips became even wider, and he had the mentality of watching a good show.

Afterwards, Hu Fei called Qin Hai and asked the chef to make some midnight snacks for Hu Weiyong and brought them into the study.

Hu Weiyong's mood improved and he had a big appetite and ate all the food.

...

The next day.

Royal Palace.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Early in the morning, King Zhu Di of Yan entered the palace to pay his respects.

"My son, please see your father!"

After entering the palace, Zhu Di bowed respectfully.

"Get flat."

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand and said with a smile.

"How are you? How have you been resting recently? Compared to Peking, life in the capital is much more comfortable, right?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Di who was getting up slowly and asked with a smile.

"It is indeed easy to go back to my father these days, but my son is not used to it. In comparison, he still prefers to stay in Peiping. As a prince, you should not just think about peace and happiness, but you should think about how to serve your father.

Share worries."

Zhu Di cupped his hands and said seriously.

"Hehehe, good, very good, you are really sensible and know how to take care of your father's worries."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he immediately showed a satisfied smile on his face and said with approval.

"Thank you very much for the compliment. It is my honor and my duty to share my father's worries."

Zhu Di raised his hands and said respectfully.

"Yes, I feel very relieved to hear you say that."

"But after the New Year, you will go to Peking to join the feudal clan. Before and after the New Year, you should hide in the mansion to recuperate. If you have nothing to do, you don't have to go to the palace every day to pay respects. As long as you have this filial piety, it is enough."

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.

"Thank you, Father, for your consideration."

Zhu Di bowed respectfully and said gratefully.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Di, his face was full of relief and he was in a good mood.

"Father, I am entering the palace today to congratulate my father."

Zhu Di raised his eyes and glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang, hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile.

"Oh? What do you want to congratulate me for?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment and asked curiously.

"Hu Fei is one of the best among men. It is truly a matter of celebration that my father recruited him as Chang Shu's consort. In time, he will surely become my father's right-hand man. I am really happy for my father."

Zhu Di raised his hands and said seriously.

But after hearing Zhu Di's words, Zhu Yuanzhang's brows wrinkled involuntarily again.

"I didn't expect you to have such a high opinion of him. Do you really think he can be used by the court in the future?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Di and asked hesitantly.

"Going back to my father, based on my understanding of Hu Fei, although he is a bit ignorant of the rules, he is a clear-minded, wise and foolish person, and he is both civil and military. If he has the right guidance, he may not be unable to become a Qingshi

An important minister who left his name."

Zhu Di nodded and said extremely seriously.

"But some people say that once he becomes the consort, there will be unexpected consequences. They even say that he will conspire with his father to overthrow our Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Di and said with some emotion.

After listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Zhu Di couldn't help laughing.

"why are you laughing?"

Seeing Zhu Di suddenly smile, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and asked in a deep voice.
