Thank you for the invitation. I am in the Ming Dynasty and swear not to be an official!

Chapter 52 King Yan Zhu Di accompanied him
"Fourth, what do you say?"

Zhu Yuanzhang did not give an answer, but asked about Zhu Biao.

Zhu Biao said calmly: "Father, I also want to go. I think it would be better to draw lots to decide this matter directly."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.

He felt that these two sons were about the same ability. The only difference was that King Jin was two years older than King Yan.

Now King Yan Zhu Di is only 17 years old.

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted King Jin to go, but Zhu Biao had a calm and resolute personality, and Zhu Yuanzhang was willing to give him a chance.

"Then let's draw lots!"

This method was the fairest. Zhu Yuanzhang immediately wrote "go" and "no go", crumpled two paper balls, and asked his two sons to catch them.

Without thinking, the two stretched out their hands and each took one.

Prince Jin quickly turned pale: "Hey, bad luck!"

Zhu Biao smiled slightly when he saw "Go" written on it.

"Then it's settled!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was also happy, they were all his sons, no matter who they were.

"But if you go, there are some things you need to keep in mind."

Zhu Di was in awe of his father, so he immediately lowered his eyebrows and restrained his hands, acting obediently.

"First of all, we must not reveal our identity, your eldest brother's, and your sister's identity! Of course, you can directly reveal your identity as King Yan to him."

"Secondly, although you are King Yan, your power only lies in the army! As for what Liao Tiancheng did, you can report it secretly, but you cannot interfere without authorization."

"Also, that place is not peaceful. If something happens, stick to it first and don't go to war easily! If you can hold on for a few days, Geng Bingwen will naturally lead troops to rescue."

Geng Bingwen is now the right minister of Shaanxi province, and troops and horses are permanently stationed to hand over Gansu and Shaanxi. It is not difficult to rush to Yinmagou to aid him.

This time, one was Zhu Yuanzhang's prospective son-in-law, and the other was King Yan Zhu Di. Naturally, he would greet Geng Bingwen in advance.

Zhu Di is a newborn calf and is not afraid of tigers. He has no idea whether Geng Bingwen can do it. He just wants to find opportunities to use his military talents.

Soon, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao and Zhu Di came together to see Liao Tiancheng.

"Tiancheng, look who we brought for you."

Liao Tiancheng took a look and saw a man wearing gorgeous clothes and a very luxurious dragon jade belt. Only princes could wear it.

"Guangfeng Bo Liao Tiancheng has met the prince, but I don't know which prince you are?"

Zhu Di didn't pay much attention to the little Uncle Guangfeng, and he was too lazy to speak at first, but when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang looking at him, he hurriedly responded.

"We are Zhu Di, King of Yan."

Liao Tiancheng was stunned for a moment: "Old man, I don't know why King Yan is here?"

"Of course I am the commander of the army and will travel with you."

Liao Tiancheng was stunned for a while: "Prince Yan looks a bit young! Old man, are you sure you are not joking?"

"Can this kind of thing be a joke? Tiancheng, even though King Yan is young, he has been studying since he was a child and has been training soldiers in the past two years. He is very capable."

Zhu Yuanzhang was selling melons to Wang Po, but Liao Tiancheng didn't accept this trick at all.

"The King of Yan may be good, but without actual combat experience, how can he lead the army? Besides, the place I go to borders the Yuan people, and my life may be in danger at any time! If he does something bad, how can I explain to the emperor?"

"No, no, you don't have to explain. Even if something happens to him, it's his own fault."

Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid that Liao Tiancheng would not take Zhu Di with him.

At this time, Zhu Biao also came to persuade: "Brother Xian, this is a matter decided by the emperor, so don't worry! Besides, the emperor will also greet Changxing Marquis Geng Bingwen and can support you at any time."

"That's right! There are many soldiers and horses in Shaanxi Province deployed near Lanzhou. If you have something over there, you can arrive in less than three days!" Zhu Yuanzhang and his son sang in harmony, and Liao Tiancheng could only agree.

To be honest, he believed in Zhu Di's ability, but the problem was that Zhu Di's status was too noble. Even if he was injured, let alone dead, there must be ministers who like to push others to get higher positions and accuse Liao Tiancheng.

If he had a choice, he would not want to play with Zhu Di.

But the problem is that this is what Emperor Zhu meant.

"Tiancheng, the emperor said that you can do your own thing outside while he takes care of his soldiers. The two of you should not interfere with each other. If King Yan interferes in your affairs, you can directly write a letter of impeachment."

Liao Tiancheng laughed awkwardly and did not dare to express his position.

Who knows if Zhu Biao will die suddenly in the middle and Zhu Di will take over.

If you can avoid provoking this ruthless man, it's better not to do so.

After all, I just want to be rich and live a perfumed life.

Thinking about it, I feel that I am quite unlucky. I originally thought that by going to the west, I could stay away from the disputes in the court and would not get involved in the internal fighting of the Ming Dynasty royal family.

But since Zhu Di followed him to Yinmagou, the relationship between the two would inevitably change.

In the future, when Zhu Diwan goes to the army, if he doesn't help, he will be unlucky after he takes office. But if he helps, how can he be worthy of Zhu Biao?
Hey, it’s difficult!
Shaking his head, Liao Tiancheng didn't think about it anymore.

"In that case, let's leave in two months."

Liao Tiancheng still wanted to delay.

"Two months? Just? Tiancheng, the emperor said, you have to leave tomorrow!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was immediately unhappy and opened his mouth.

Liao Tiancheng's face darkened: "Okay, okay, tomorrow is tomorrow!"

After everyone dispersed, Liao Tiancheng returned to his house, only to find steaming meals placed in the room.

"Huh? Who?"

Liao Tiancheng shouted, and Ning Guo walked out.

"Is it you? Didn't I tell you to go home? What are you still doing here?"

"They put it into practice for you. This is a meal specially cooked for you. Do you think it tastes good?"

Liao Tiancheng felt moved in his heart.

I don't have any relatives in this world, and I haven't felt such care for a long time.

Seeing that there were chickens, ducks, geese, etc. on the table, it was very rich, so I took the opportunity to try the best-looking ones.

After taking a bite, I found that the chicken legs were really well-braised. Some places were bland and some were salty.

It was made clear that the salt was added last, and it was not stirred.

But seeing that his maid was still looking at him eagerly, he gritted his teeth and ate one.

"Yeah, it's delicious. Save the rest for a midnight snack."

When Ning Guo heard this, he was extremely happy: "Liao Tiancheng, I know you are going to the border area. When you go there, do you want to take your maid and servant with you?"

"No, I don't have that habit."

Liao Tiancheng always cooks and washes his own food, and occasionally goes out to restaurants if he is hungry.

During the time Princess Ning Guo was here, she didn't have to do anything else except make Liao Tiancheng's bed and help settle accounts.

But Princess Ning Guo had a lot of ideas: "Since you were ordered to go there, you are naturally busy with official duties, and I'm afraid you won't have time to cook and wash. In this way, I will suffer a little loss, so I will go with you!"

Liao Tiancheng was stunned: "You are a daughter of a good family, how can you behave like this with me? No, no, no, no, no, no! You go home quickly, this matter is not negotiable!"
