Chapter 860 Zhu Xiao 5, you've really grown up to be quite capable!
When Zhu Laowu saw Zhu Biao and Yang Shaofeng, he almost burst into tears.
It wasn't easy, it wasn't easy at all!
My elder brother and brother-in-law have finally remembered me!
They've come to see me!
My desperately needed supplies are back!
Zhu Laowu first bowed to Yang Shaofeng and called him brother-in-law, then bowed to Zhu Biao and called him elder brother. Then he spread his hands and looked at the two of them, asking, "Where's the shorty?"
As Zhu Laowu finished speaking, Zhu Biao and Yang Shaofeng were both stunned.
The two of them had just discussed countless possibilities.
For example, Zhu Laowu might feel aggrieved because the two of them haven't visited him for a long time.
For example, Zhu Laowu might feel aggrieved because he spends so much time in the medical school.
For example, Zhu Laowu might cause a ruckus and go back to the capital to find Empress Ma.
But to everyone's surprise, the first thing Zhu Laowu did upon meeting them was to ask the two men for the short, ugly man!
Li Shanchang, who was standing next to Zhu Biao, coughed and bowed to Zhu Biao, saying, "Your subject Li Shanchang greets the Fifth Prince."
This time, it was Zhu Laowu's turn to be stunned: "Prime Minister Li? What brings you to Dengzhou?"
So, you didn't see me, a grown man, just now?
But then he thought about it again and almost burst out laughing.
The Fifth Prince certainly did not see me.
However, he called the Crown Prince "elder brother" as soon as he saw him, and called Yang the madman "brother-in-law" as soon as he saw him. Moreover, he called him "brother-in-law" first and then "elder brother." This clearly shows that he only talked about kinship and did not care about the relationship between the ruler and his subjects.
In other words, if His Highness the Crown Prince and Yang the Madman could produce a short, ugly man today, Zhu Laowu would acknowledge them as his elder brother and brother-in-law.
But if they can't produce something short and ugly, Zhu Laowu will start acting like the youngest son.
The rest is up to you, Black Sesame Dumpling and Yang the Madman!
While secretly chuckling to himself, Li Shanchang cupped his hands to Zhu Laowu and said, "Your Highness, I have come to Dengzhou Prefecture to see the various matters concerning the reform of Dengzhou Prefecture, and also to take a look at the market and Dengzhou University."
understood.
Li Xiang came here specifically for the border market and Dengzhou University; there might be other things going on there too.
On the contrary, the reform of Dengzhou Prefecture was a dispensable addition.
Zhu Laowu was too lazy to think about it anymore. He simply said "oh" and then turned his gaze to Zhu Biao: "By the way, when you go back, remember to tell our father that you will be in charge of my fiefdom. I can't take care of that mess for the time being."
Zhu Biao was completely dumbfounded.
Can someone explain to me what it means that your fiefdom is under my administration?
What do you mean by "you can't care about that mess"?
Zhu Biao's face darkened, but Zhu Laowu spoke up first: "If you don't care, just find someone to take care of it. Just don't let them bother me with this mess of fiefdoms. I don't have that much time to mess around with them."
As Zhu Laowu finished speaking, Yang Shaofeng and Li Shanchang were both stunned.
Zhu Laowu was granted the title of King of Wu.
Before becoming emperor, Lao Deng had been known as the King of Wu.
This is enough to prove Lao Deng's favoritism towards Zhu Laowu, the youngest son.
To put it simply, aside from the position of crown prince, he was given almost everything else he could, and even more than he was given to Zhu the Second, Third, and Fourth Princes.
But who could have imagined that Zhu Laowu would not take the King of Wu seriously at all, and even not care about his fiefdom!
Tsk.
If Li Xiaosi had been half as sensible as Zhu Laowu back then, Brother Ji wouldn't have had to shout, "Please, Your Majesty, be called the Crown Prince!"
Yang Shaofeng was internally ranting, while Zhu Biao circled around Zhu Laowu and sneered, "Well, Laowu, you've grown some guts, daring to talk to your big brother like that, huh?"
Memories that had been dead for a long time began to attack Zhu Laowu.
Zhu Laowu, who had just exuded an aura of imposing presence, immediately wilted.
"Well, big brother, I really can't take care of that."
Zhu Laowu stammered, "I'm currently obsessed with medicine. All I can think about is how to demolish a few more short and ugly people and research more prescriptions. My mind isn't on governing my fiefdom at all."
"Well, besides, about that fiefdom, it... brother-in-law!"
Zhu Laowu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Yang Shaofeng and said, "Brother-in-law has made a water pump!"
"With that thing, people can farm with peace of mind and no longer worry about drought."
“As long as my brother-in-law arranges a few more capable people in my fiefdom, it will be the same whether I am the King of Wu or not.”
So, you, Zhu Xiaowu, still want to fleece me, right?
Yang Shaofeng grinned and said, "Your Highness, this is not something that can be done just because I agree, nor can it be done just because His Highness the Crown Prince agrees. You still need to discuss it with your father-in-law before making a decision."
Zhu Laowu gave a barely perceptible hum and turned to walk into the medical school: "Brother-in-law and elder brother brought Li Xiang to see the medical school this time?"
"Coincidentally, there is a surgery being performed at the medical school today to remove an intestinal abscess."
"If Prime Minister Li is interested, he can come and take a look."
Zhu Biao was almost driven mad by Zhu Laowu's behavior.
Zhu Xiaowu, you've really grown up to be quite capable!
You're just too embarrassed to punish me in front of Li Xiang and my brother-in-law!
Just wait for me!
Once Prime Minister Li returns to the capital, I, your elder brother, will show you what true authority as the eldest brother is!
……
"This time, it's another Korean who got intestinal abscess."
As Zhu Laowu led Zhu Biao, Yang Shaofeng, and Li Shanchang into the medical school, he said with a helpless expression, "These Koreans are really something else."
"The first thing I did after arriving in the Ming Dynasty was to eat and drink like crazy, as if I hadn't eaten in eight lifetimes."
"I even suspect that if a manure cart passes by a Korean, they might rush up and taste it to see how salty it is."
While complaining, Zhu Laowu described the Korean's condition: "He ate something cold, then something hot, then something cold again. Under the repeated stimulation of hot and cold, the Korean's intestines couldn't withstand it and he got intestinal abscess."
"The only solution now is to cut open his abdomen, remove the section of intestine that is suffering from appendicitis, and then sew it back up."
"Brother, brother-in-law, and Prime Minister Li, you all need to be careful in the future. Wash your hands before meals and after using the toilet, and don't eat food that's either hot or cold."
"After all, there is a medical school here in Dengzhou, and you can easily find several doctors who know how to surgically remove intestinal abscesses."
"Once we get to the capital, those imperial physicians won't know anything about this stuff."
Zhu Laowu was ranting wildly, but Li Shanchang frowned slightly and asked, "May I ask, Your Highness, are there many Koreans suffering from appendicitis?"
Zhu Laowu nodded and said, "A lot, a lot."
"Especially when they're eating meat or watermelon, these Koreans really have absolutely no shame."
"They are far worse off than the old farmers in the countryside who can't eat meat more than a few times a year."
Ok?
countryside?
I am an official from the countryside in the south.
