"Thank you for your reminder from Li Banju, otherwise I will regret it for the rest of my life!" As soon as I left the main hall, Zhu Biao immediately saluted Li Jie very seriously.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince must not be there. Is there any news from the King of Tan?" Li Jie was also shocked and hurriedly returned the favor and asked again.

"The news just passed back today. When the second imperial edict was sent, the eighth brother and his wife had already poured the hall with tinder oil to prepare to burn himself. Fortunately, the imperial edict was delivered in time. However, the eighth brother was excited and accidentally knocked over the candle and burned most of the entire palace. Fortunately, the person was only slightly injured." Zhu Zi showed a fearful expression at the end.

The idea of ​​summoning Zhu Zi back to Beijing was Zhu Biao's suggestion. If something really happened to Zhu Zi, he would probably never forgive himself in his life.

"It's good that King Tan is fine!" Li Jie secretly wiped his cold sweat when he heard this. The time was too tight. Moreover, Zhu Zi was excited and even burned half of the royal palace. It seems that the King Tan is also lucky this year.

"My father was also very scared after receiving the news. Now hesitating to see you, so rewards will definitely be indispensable at that time, but..." Zhu Biao said hesitating for a moment, and then said tactfully, "But you must do what you can and don't make your father too embarrassed!"

Zhu Biao's meaning is very obvious, because he is afraid that Li Jie will use his merits to enhance Princess. Last time his father had rejected Li Jie. If he mentioned it again, it would probably make Zhu Yuanzhang angry. The joyous event would turn into tragedy.

"Thank you for your reminder, I know what I know!" Li Jie replied without comment.

Soon Zhu Biao and Li Jie came to the warm pavilion. When they entered, they found that Zhu Yuanzhang was walking back and forth with his hands on his back. When he saw Li Jie, he immediately said excitedly: "Li Jie, you are finally here, give him a seat!"

Following Zhu Yuanzhang's order, an eunuch immediately brought the chair. After Li Jie thanked him, he sat down. Zhu Yuanzhang said excitedly again: "Thanks to your reminder this time, otherwise Lao Ba would have really done something stupid!"

"Your Majesty, you are polite. This is my duty!" Li Jie bowed and said modestly again.

"Don't be humble, you will have rewards for merit. I will never be stingy in rewards!" Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly paused when he said this, then stared at Li Jie and asked again, "Tell me, what reward do you want?"

"Huh?" Zhu Biao next to him felt something was wrong when he heard this. He even felt that this scene seemed to be inexplicably familiar. It seemed that he had experienced it before?

Li Jie was a little hesitant, but when he heard Zhu Yuanzhang ask him to make a request, he was shocked. With Zhu Yuanzhang's shrewdness, he would never make the same mistake twice.

Thinking of this, Li Jie no longer hesitated, and immediately stepped forward and saluted solemnly: "My minister, Li Jie, please..."

"Wait a minute!" Before Li Jie finished speaking, Zhu Biao, who had woken up, suddenly interrupted. He finally remembered that the scene when Li Jie invited Princess Shang last time was exactly the same as before.

"Father, Li Jie is still young, and sometimes he lacks careful thinking when speaking. Please don't blame him!" Zhu Biao stood in front of Li Jie and pleaded for him. Cold sweat came out when he spoke, for fear that his father would be angry about Li Jie's remarks about Princess Li Jie. At the same time, he also secretly blamed Li Jie in his heart. He had already reminded him before, but he didn't expect that he was still so stubborn.

However, what Zhu Biao never expected was that Zhu Yuanzhang, who was opposite, suddenly stood up and waved his hand and said, "I'm sure!"

"Accurate? What's right?" Zhu Biao was also a little confused now?

"Li Jie listened to the order!" Zhu Yuanzhang spoke again.

Li Jie also stood up from behind Zhu Biao and knelt down and said, "My dear Li Jie obeyed the order!"

"Princess Danyang is virtuous and kind, and was granted marriage to Li Jie!" Zhu Yuanzhang said very briefly.

"Thank you Your Majesty!" Li Jie said happily that Princess Danyang was the title of Zhu Yunsheng's sister. Speaking of Danyang County, it is Jurong from later generations. Although Zhu Yuanzhang's hometown is in Fengyang, his ancestral home is actually Tongde Township of Jurong. He used his ancestral home as his granddaughter. This shows how Zhu Yuanzhang loved this eldest granddaughter.

Zhu Biao was completely confused at this time. Why did his father give Li Jie a marriage in a blink of an eye, and he was also a princess? But didn’t Li Jie want to Shang Princess?

"Wait! Danyang? It seems to be the title of Yuning, right?" Zhu Biao suddenly woke up and finally remembered that Princess Danyang was his eldest daughter Zhu Yuning, which made him widen his eyes and shout, "Father, why did you marry Yuning?"

"So her name is Zhu Yuning!" Li Jie felt aroused when he heard this. The name of a woman in this era is kept confidential. Unless it is when she is engaged, the woman will hand over her name and birth date to the man, so it was the first time he knew the name of his fiancée.

"What? Haven't you always wanted to marry Yuning?" Old Zhu glared at Zhu Biao and asked back.

"No...I..." Zhu Biao was also a little incoherent at this time. He didn't object to marrying his daughter, but he didn't know at all before he became a father. Even seeing Li Jie's promise so simply, he doubted whether Li Jie knew in advance?

"Okay, Li Jie has made contributions to the country many times, and this time he saved the life of the Ba family. He happened to be the same age as Yuning, and he is a good match. Can you find a better husband for Yuning?" When Zhu Yuanzhang spoke at the end, his voice was a little more serious.

This finally calmed down Zhu Biao. At first, he was just surprised and shocked. Now, if you think about it carefully, Li Jie is indeed a good candidate for a son-in-law. He is young and talented. Although he is a little bit of a bad background, he is also a nobleman. The most important thing is that through this marriage, Li Jie can be tied tightly to the chariot of the East Palace, so that he can better use it for himself.

Thinking of this, Zhu Biao finally breathed a sigh of relief and immediately saluted Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "My son understands, let everything be decided by the father!"

Seeing that his son figured it out, Zhu Yuanzhang finally showed a happier smile. In fact, the reason why he gave marriage was because he took a fancy to Li Jie's ability and wanted to leave Li Jie to Zhu Biao. If Li Jie was not Li Shanchang's grandson, he might have agreed to marry his daughter to him last time. Now Li Jie's performance has made him more satisfied, so he simply agreed to give marriage, but he turned from a son-in-law to a grandson-in-law, which also made it easier for Zhu Biao to control Li Jie.

"You guys go down, and someone else calls Yuning here. I want to say something to her!" The matter was settled, and Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand again.

"My son asked for his leave!" Zhu Biao immediately saluted when he heard this, and Li Jie followed Zhu Biao and left the warm room.

But just as soon as he left, Zhu Biao suddenly turned around and stared at Li Jie and asked, "Li Jie, tell me honestly, have you known about this a long time ago?"

"Why did Your Highness say this? How could I know about the fact that Your Majesty gave a marriage so much? I thought Your Highness would know?" Li Jie refused to admit it when he heard this. Although the marriage was settled, if Zhu Biao knew that he had long been thinking about his daughter, he would probably not have the best results in the future.

"You really don't know?" Zhu Biao couldn't help but doubt his judgment when he saw Li Jie's sincere expression.

"I really don't know!" Li Jie called out again, but he was grateful for his wisdom in his heart. He never told anyone about Zhu Yuning's concern. Except for him, there were only Zhu Yuanzhang and Tang He who knew about this. These two old men would definitely not tell others, so Zhu Biao would never want to know the truth in his life.

Another step back is that even if Zhu Biao knows the truth in the future, it will be useless. Anyway, the raw rice has been cooked by then, so Zhu Biao, the father-in-law, can't really do anything to his son-in-law.

Seeing that Li Jie didn't seem to be lying, Zhu Biao finally wavered. According to common sense, Li Jie shouldn't know about this. Instead, the prince and the father should know in advance. Could it be that he really wronged Li Jie?

Thinking of this, Zhu Biao couldn't help feeling guilty for his suspicion, but now his identity is different. As Li Jie's father-in-law, he was embarrassed to admit his mistakes to his son-in-law, so he used the excuse to change the topic. Then he remembered Zhu Yuanzhang's orders and immediately sent someone to Chunhe Palace to summon Zhu Yuning to meet Zhu Yuanzhang.

At the same time, Zhu Yuning in Chunhe's palace rarely reads and writes, but holds an eyebrow pencil and is drawing eyebrows for the girl sitting opposite him. The girl looks younger than Zhu Yuning. She is her sister Zhu Yuqing, who is named Princess Qinghe.

Zhu Yuqing was only one year older than Zhu Yunyu. It is said that their mother, Chang, died of heavy bleeding when giving birth to Zhu Yunyu because the interval between the two births was too short, and her body did not fully recover.

Zhu Yuqing looks a bit similar to her sister, both have oval faces and big eyes, but because she is young and has a lot of childishness on her body, she held the glass mirror given to Zhu Yuning by Li Jie in her hand, and looked left and right, and it seemed that she couldn't see enough no matter how she looked.

"Don't move around, you'll get a crooked eyebrow when you move again!" Zhu Yuning reached out and patted his dirty sister and said angrily.

After being photographed by her sister, Zhu Yuqing finally became honest, but then she had a circle of eyes and said with a smile: "Sister, I heard from the little palace maid around Concubine Lu that she advised her father to find you a husband again!"

"Hmph~" Zhu Yuning said very disdainfully, "Of course she wishes me to get married, but I have already told my grandfather that I will not get married unless you get married and my younger brother gets married!"

"How can I do it? When I get married, sister, you are old, how can you get married?" Zhu Yuqing shouted exaggeratedly when she heard her sister's words. As a result, her movements were too big, and Zhu Yuning immediately drew her eyebrows to the corners of her eyes.

"Damn my dear girl, tell you not to move, the painting is wrong now!" Zhu Yuning angrily pointed at her sister's forehead with her fingers, then hurriedly picked up a wet towel to wipe her face, and did not answer her sister's words.

"Sister, to be honest, if you want to get married, what kind of person do you want to marry the most?" Zhu Yuqing held his cheek with both hands and let his sister wipe his face clean.

"Why, you want to get married now?" Zhu Yuning did not answer positively, but picked up the eyebrow pencil and started drawing eyebrows for her sister again.

"I just want to know what your wishful husband looks like in your heart, sister?" Zhu Yuqing saw that his sister did not answer, and immediately prepared to act coquettishly.

Zhu Yuning was afraid that she would move again, so her face turned red and finally replied: "The best man in my heart is better to be an invincible commander who gallops on the battlefield like his grandfather and grandfather, and is undefeated in a hundred battles!"

"Hey~, sister, you actually like this!" Zhu Yuqing screamed exaggeratedly again when she heard this, but almost made Zhu Yuning draw her eyebrows tilted again, which made Zhu Yuning slapped her head angrily, which made her not dare to move.

In fact, Zhu Yuning grew up so old, there were not many men she had seen. Moreover, her mother died early, and Zhu Biao was not very close to them. This made Zhu Yuning mature early and acted very strongly in normal times because she wanted to protect her younger brothers and sisters, but after all, she was a woman, and sometimes she also really wanted to meet someone who could protect herself.

In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang was very fond of Zhu Yuning, the granddaughter. It can be said that Zhu Yuning gained much more family affection from his grandfather than his father Zhu Biao, which also made Zhu Yuning admire his grandfather more. In addition, by her mother's influence, she also admired her grandfather Chang Yuchun very much. After a variety of reasons, Zhu Yuning finally imagined a heroic and wishful husband in her heart.

If Li Jie knew about the above, he would probably be crying without tears, because he had no power to tie a chicken and had nothing to do with the image of the invincible commander.

Taking advantage of the fact that my sister became honest, Zhu Yuning finally drew her eyebrows, which made Zhu Yuqing pick up the mirror and look at her narcissistically again. Finally, she suddenly hugged her sister's arm and acted coquettishly and said, "Sister, I like you so much, can you give it to me?"

"No, you took away all my rouge last time. Don't think about taking away my mirror again this time!" Zhu Yuning snatched his mirror and said.

No girl doesn't like mirrors. Since the news of her having a glass mirror spread, the women in the entire palace were extremely envious of her. Some people were even shameless to borrow, but she directly refused them. As a result, her sister was so good that she actually asked her for it.

"Sister~" Seeing that his sister refused to give her, Zhu Yuqing immediately used her own spoiled method again.

Unfortunately, Zhu Yuning didn't like her this time, but seeing her pitiful, he pointed at her and said, "If you really want it, go find me. He knows Li Jie who knows how to make mirrors, and maybe he can ask for a piece for you."

"I've been looking for me for a long time!" Zhu Yuqing stomped his feet in anger, "But I told me that Li Jie said that there is no suitable glass now, so there is no way to make a mirror."

"Then I have nothing to do." Zhu Yuning said helplessly when she heard this. The glass mirror was her beloved thing, so she would never give it to her sister.

"Ah~, I'm so annoying. If anyone gives me a glass mirror, I'll marry him!" Zhu Yuqing started to show off his temper and fell on Zhu Yuqing's bed while rolling and screaming. But soon she thought of something again. She immediately sat up suddenly, staring at Zhu Yuning with shiny eyes and said, "Sister, why don't you give me the mirror, how about I marry you?"

"You crazy girl!" Zhu Yuning couldn't help laughing when she heard her sister's nonsense.

But before he finished speaking, Zhu Yuqing pulled it to the bed. The two sisters made a fuss, and the crisp laughter resounded throughout the hall.
