Jingyang Palace, Imperial Study Room.

Zhu Xu held the paint bucket, raised her little face, tilted her head, and looked uncomfortable.

Emperor Zhu Youxiao took the brush and brushed it over and over again on the newly carved wood carvings, looking excited and excited.

"Brother, where did the paint come from? It smells so smelly!"

Zhu Xu couldn't do it and said uncomfortable with his mouth flattening.

Zhu Youxiao patiently painted it over and over again, and said with a smile on his face, "This is what Wei Qing found for me. The paint dries quickly and has a bright color. It is very good to apply. You will see it later."

Zhu Xu's heart moved slightly, his head tilted further away, and he said with difficulty, "Brother, Wei Zhongxian is actually not bad. If he were still there, I would also like him to help me with something."

"Don't worry," Zhu Youxiao smiled more, looked at the wood carving in front of him, and the red and green slowly soaked, saying, "Wait until I've been busy for a while."

Zhu Xu gritted his teeth secretly. The smell was really smelly, but from Zhu Youxiao's words, he vaguely felt that perhaps Wei Zhongxian was really called back by this emperor and hid in this Jingyang Palace.

A eunuch turned around and stepped in at the door, not far from the imperial table, and said respectfully, "Emperor, Lord Ye, Lord Han, please see him."

"Xuan!" Zhu Youxiao raised his head suddenly and said loudly.

Zhu Xu was stunned, looked at Zhu Youxiao's excited side face and frowned slightly. Lord Ye, Lord Han, are they Ye Xianggao and Han Du?

These two are the chief assistant and the second assistant. What does the emperor ask them for?

Zhu Youxiao put down the brush in his hand, turned to Zhu Xu and said, "Brother Emperor, you go to play by yourself first. By the way, go to the imperial kitchen and ask them to make a bowl of bird's nest. You can send it to the queen."

Zhu Xu looked at Zhu Youxiao and clearly saw an unspeakable excitement on his face, as if something was brewing.

Zhu Youxiao's heart was like lightning, but his face smiled and said, "Okay, by the way, the emperor brother, will you go to the emperor's sister-in-law tonight?"

Zhu Youxiao was stunned. Since he learned that Queen Zhang was pregnant, he had only been there once and did not stay overnight. He couldn't help feeling guilty. He thought for a while and said, "Tell the queen that I will go there later."

"Okay, I'll go and pass the order now!" Zhu Xu put down the oil barrel, turned around and walked outside the imperial study room.

When I went out, I saw two people walking towards me from a distance. One was a big belly and a broad-faced old man, the other was a stern expression, a pale face and thin skin, and a bright gaze of about fifty years.

Zhu Xu glanced at the two of them, then turned to the imperial kitchen.

Zhu Xu thought all the way, but Zhu Youxiao had not been doing anything recently. He was surprisingly quiet and always felt that something big was going to happen.

When he arrived at the imperial kitchen, Zhu Xu walked in with his hands behind his back.

A big fat man immediately came up, bowed his fists and laughed repeatedly, "Your Highness, why are you here?"

Zhu Xu didn't see him, so he walked in with his hands behind his back and walked around. It was not the first time he came to the imperial kitchen, but he had never visited it. There were only a few dozen people at this glance. If we counted them all, it would probably cost one or two hundred people.

"Tsk tsk, it's really corrupt..." Zhu Xu shook his head while looking.

The fat man was Chengying of the Imperial Kitchen. He followed Zhu Xu and said with a smile: "Your Highness, what are you going to do? I will do it for you personally. Look at the mess in this kitchen. You are careful of your clothes here."

Zhu Xu picked up this and did that, and he was bored and said, "Make me a bowl of bird's nest, which the emperor gave to the queen."

When Cheng Ying heard this, he hurriedly said, "Your Highness, please wait, I will do it for you in person."

Zhu Xu looked at the fat man and suddenly felt aroused, saying, "No need for you, let others do it."

The fat man was stunned and immediately said, "It's Your Highness." The fat man called someone, gave an order, and then stood beside Zhu Xu with a smile.

Zhu Xu glanced around and asked casually, "By the way, what have you done for the emperor's brother recently? How about the emperor's appetite?"

The fat man Chengying immediately said with a smile: "Report to Your Highness, the emperor has a very good appetite recently. He has eaten several meals a day, and his taste has also changed, which means that the emperor has been in a very good mood recently and has a big appetite."

Zhu Xu's eyes twitched slightly and said, "Is the horse kidney boiled?"

Ma Shen, this is something that Keshi often cooks for Zhu Youxiao. If Keshi is also in the palace, I am afraid this thing will be indispensable.

When the fat man Chengying heard this, he was stunned and said, "This...is not."

"No?" Zhu Xu looked at the fat man's eyes seriously.

"No." Fatty Chengying replied seriously.

Zhu Xu nodded. The fat man did not lie, but this could not tell whether Keshi was hidden in the imperial study by Zhu Youxu.

Not long after, the bird's nest was ready. The fat man came over and handed it to Zhu Xu and said, "Your Highness, the bird's nest you want is ready."

Zhu Xu reached out to take the box, waved his hand and said, "Okay, make another one and send it to the imperial study."

"It's Your Highness." The fat man agreed happily and sent Zhu Xu out.

Zhu Xu probably knew the feeling of the fat man being inspected by the leader, but now he didn't have time to pay attention to the minions and headed straight to Kunning Palace with his bird's nest.

Now all the signs indicate that Keshi may have returned to the palace, but it needs to be confirmed. Fortunately, due to the previous storm, neither Keshi nor Wei Zhongxian dared to emerge.

"The emperor sister-in-law, the emperor sister-in-law..."

As soon as Zhu Xu entered Kunning Palace, he shouted loudly, carrying a box like a thousand pounds of pendant, and crossed the threshold with a groan.

Queen Zhang happened to go out and came to meet him from the front. When she saw Zhu Xu's appearance, she smiled and said to Huan'er beside her, "Huan'er, hurry up and continue, don't tired Your Highness Hui."

"It's the Empress." Huan'er also smirked and walked over to take the box in Zhu Xu's hand.

Zhu Xu smiled and said, "The box is not important and affection is important. This is what the emperor asked me to send to my sister-in-law. The emperor also said that he would come here later."

Queen Zhang was stunned. She was about to go to the imperial study room, but when she heard this, she turned her head and looked at Huan'er.

Huan'er didn't expect the emperor to come over. Looking at Empress Zhang, she suggested, "Empress, why don't we wait for the emperor to come in the palace?"

Queen Zhang thought for a moment, nodded and smiled at Zhu Xu, "Okay, you are smart, come in. Huan'er, go and pick a good thing for King Hui."

"Thank you for your reward!" Zhu Xu pulled the cart and followed Queen Zhang.

The two sat down. Queen Zhang seemed to know that Zhu Youxiao was coming. She was in a happy mood and looked at Zhu Xu and said, "I heard that you haven't left the palace recently, so you are still honest. After a while, I will ask the emperor to find you a good teacher and read more books. You won't be so wild."

Several emperors of the Ming Dynasty have not been very glorious recently, and so have Zhu Youxiao. He was born to a maid. He was not valued since childhood and did not study much.

Zhu Xu nodded obediently, turned his eyes and glanced around. He suddenly approached Queen Zhang and whispered, "Sister-in-law, you should be careful recently. I heard that the emperor's brother cooked horse kidneys every day, so he can't be snatched away by others at this time..."
