Chapter 267 Scars are the Glory of a Man
Zhu Di finally reacted and quickly let go of his hand, but he still looked at him with murderous eyes.
"Tell me quickly, where is my father?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has gone to the side courtyard to see the little prince."
Faced with Zhu Di's fierce questioning, the young eunuch naturally did not dare to hide it and pointed to the side with trembling hands.
Zhu Di just glanced at the side courtyard, then ignored the eunuch who was almost scared to death by him and walked straight over.
When he walked outside the side courtyard and heard Zhu Yuanzhang's voice, he stopped, straightened his clothes, and strode in.
"Nephew, I heard you were injured."
Zhu Di shouted loudly, then strode into the side courtyard.
"Father, why are you here?"
Even though he knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was in the room, when Zhu Di saw him, he still looked shocked, took a step back, and bowed respectfully.
"Old Four, what are you doing here?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was somewhat dissatisfied at being interrupted while chatting with his grandson, so he looked back and asked impatiently.
"I heard that my nephew was stabbed and injured, so I came to see him."
Zhu Di smiled gently, then walked to the head of Zhu Ming's bed and said, "After all, my nephew has helped the army raise funds for the expedition, and we cannot fail to repay the favor."
He lowered his head, looked at Zhu Ming lying on the bed, and asked with a smile: "How are you, are you okay?"
Hearing this, Zhu Ming calmly shook his head and said, "Don't worry, Fourth Uncle. I'm fine."
But he couldn't help wondering in his heart, why did Zhu Di come here now?
"Those assassins are so brave that they dared to take action in the capital."
Zhu Di also pretended to be angry and cursed.
"Does it still hurt?"
Zhu Di leaned over and looked at the wounds on Zhu Ming's body, confirming again that Zhu Ming's injuries were only minor.
"It's much better."
Zhu Ming could only smile again and signal to Zhu Di that he was fine.
"A man's scars are his glory."
Zhu Di also laughed out loud, and pulled open his clothes to reveal the wounds on his body.
There were dozens of knife wounds all over his body, which was shocking to see.
These injuries were the traces left by him fighting in the army for more than ten years.
Even Zhu Yuanzhang, who was standing by, couldn't help but be moved when he saw Zhu Di's wounds.
Zhu Di went to war for the sake of his Ming Dynasty.
"Well said, scars are the glory of a man."
He listened to Zhu Di's bold words and laughed a few times.
Fighting in battles, everyone has a few scars on his body.
This also happened to him, the emperor.
"This is following General Chang Yuchun..."
In front of Zhu Ming, Zhu Di pointed at the scars on his body and explained the origins of these scars one by one.
As he talked about what happened on the battlefield, he himself became excited.
The yellow sand of the desert and the iron horses once again aroused his heroic spirit.
If Zhu Ming had not been concerned about the whereabouts of Zhu Di's Dingziying, he would have almost thought that he really had such a close relationship with his fourth uncle.
"Don't worry, nephew."
After exchanging pleasantries with Zhu Ming for a while, Zhu Di patted him on the shoulder gently and put on his clothes.
"You helped me raise military funds, so your fourth uncle can't just ignore this matter."
As he spoke, he patted his chest, as if he was responsible for everything.
"Which general in the camp do you like? Just let me know."
Zhu Di waved his hand generously and said loudly: "With them as your guards, all villains will stay away from you."
"No need, Fourth Uncle."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Ming also reacted to the greetings he had just had with Zhu Di.
No wonder Zhu Di rushed here so excitedly, it turned out he was waiting for him here.
Did he know the ambition of Zhu Di, the man who launched the Jingnan Rebellion?
Even if he didn't stand with the Eastern Palace, he had his own plans.
Everyone in the military camp had fought with him in the front lines, and everyone was loyal to him.
Even if he went to the military camp to select people, it was hard to say whether they would listen to him or Zhu Di.
By doing this, Zhu Di undoubtedly wanted to place a chess piece by his side.
"Don't worry, your fourth uncle's soldiers are all top-notch fighters."
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting nearby, also spoke up to help Zhu Di express his feelings.
He didn't believe that Zhu Di, as Zhu Ming's fourth uncle, could have any bad intentions towards Zhu Ming.
Moreover, he could trust Zhu Di's people.
"Grandpa Emperor, didn't you just let me choose for myself?"
Zhu Ming also turned his head and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with some resentment.
He would never agree to this matter no matter what.
Seeing Zhu Ming's resistance, Zhu Yuanzhang also felt embarrassed. He looked at Zhu Di beside him and finally gave in: "Okay, okay, I'll let you choose for yourself."
"But……"
Seeing this, Zhu Di became even more anxious and hurriedly spoke out to dissuade him.
I came all the way from outside the city just to be a chess piece next to Zhu Ming, how could I let it go so easily?
"Okay, Fourth Brother, since he wants to choose for himself tomorrow, just let him choose."
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was persuaded by Zhu Ming, also began to dissuade Zhu Di.
After being together for so long, he also knew Zhu Ming's stubborn temper.
Once he made his decision, even I, as his grandfather, could not persuade him to do so.
Since Zhu Ming wanted to choose for himself, Ajiu let him choose.
"This……"
When Zhu Di saw that Zhu Yuanzhang also stood on Zhu Ming's side, he knew that as long as Zhu Yuanzhang did not agree, his trip would be in vain.
Everything I just said to Zhu Ming in an attempt to get close to him was in vain.
"Okay, then you choose."
Zhu Di had no choice but to give in, but he sighed again: "But the people you choose must compete with my people."
He still wanted to try his best one last time, otherwise he knew nothing about Zhu Ming and it would be difficult to deal with this guy in the future.
"If the man you choose can defeat my generals, I will let him be your guard without any worries."
On the surface, Zhu Di said this for the good of Zhu Ming.
After all, if Zhu Ming chooses someone who is incompetent, how can Zhu Ming’s safety be guaranteed?
Moreover, he has absolute confidence in his people.
When it comes to fighting skills, the generals under his command will not lose to anyone.
"Okay, that's fine."
Before Zhu Ming could speak, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and agreed on behalf of Zhu Ming.
He also did not trust the abilities of the people selected by Zhu Ming.
Being able to compete with the generals under Zhu Di is a good opportunity to see what their abilities are.
"OK then."
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang nod, Zhu Ming, although reluctant, knew that this was already their biggest concession, so he could only nod in response helplessly.
Zhu Ming also had to admit the bravery of the generals under Zhu Di.
For example, there was Zhu Neng, a brave general who had impressed him in the military camp before.
