Chapter 488 2 Difficulties
Zhu Di felt guilty and did not dare to answer Xu. He just followed Xu into the study room with his head down, pulling at her clothes like a child.
Xu was both angry and amused by Zhu Di.
But she still has to give it a chance.
I could only turn around and walk to the fish tank near the window to look at the fish and said:
"Fish food!"
Zhu Di was very alert. He ran to the side, took the porcelain box of fish food, opened the lid and handed it to Xu.
Xu didn't take it. She just reached out and pinched a small handful of fish food from the porcelain box in Zhu Di's hand. She used two fingers to crush the slightly coarse particles and sprinkled them into the fish tank.
A dozen small koi fish instantly swam out from the rocks below.
He opened and closed his mouth and began to eat.
It finished all the fish food in a short while and its belly became noticeably rounder.
"I've raised it for so long, but it's not growing! It eats and poops all the time, it's like it's not eating at all."
Seeing that Xu didn't say anything, Zhu Di pursed his lips, put the cap on the bottle, and started to make small talk.
"You raised so many fish in Chaoshang. Have they grown up?"
Xu glanced at Zhu Di.
"Well, I'm getting older and older..."
Zhu Di felt really bad when he thought of those old ministers with wrinkled faces standing in front of the court.
"My granddaughters are quite young! Why not choose a few for the emperor to enter the palace to relieve his boredom?"
Xu took the towel handed to her by the palace maid in a bad mood, wiped her hands, and said something else.
"No, no, I'm not bored at all."
Zhu Di shook his head like a rattle.
"If you're not bored, you'll use your son and grandson to tease me every day!"
Xu pinched it right away.
"Ouch - it hurts!"
"Should!"
"Your son has lost weight, and someone has taken a fancy to him! How can you blame me for this!"
Zhu Di complained about the injustice he had done to himself.
Xu was not at all misled. She pulled Zhu Di to sit in front of the desk, forced him to sit down, and then she sat up straight in front of Zhu Di before she began to speak.
"It has nothing to do with him being thin. It's just that you don't give a definite answer every day, so the people below are worried. Tell me, what do you think?"
"do not know."
Zhu Di waved his hand in a very bachelor manner.
"What do you mean you don't know?"
Xu continued to ask patiently.
"I can't think clearly about the big flower thing either."
Zhu Di frowned, he was in a dilemma.
Although he didn't love Zhang Xin as much as Xu did, he liked her just as much.
When Zhang Xin had just become blind, he always had hope and never thought of inserting other people into Zhu Gaochi's Eastern Palace.
But later on, it became clear that Zhang Xin had no hope of recovery and might not live long.
In the end, it developed to the point where even though the person got better, he would probably never recover.
When Zhang Xin was around, Zhu Gaochi took care of Zhang Xin alone. It was nothing, just like what happened between him and Xu. It was all normal.
Zhang Xin has three sons and one daughter.
Although he had fewer children than Xu, his eldest grandson was extremely smart. The two younger grandsons and granddaughter were also remarkable, at least in terms of quality, much better than his second son who was good at wielding a spear and a stick and his third son who was clueless.
So, he is quite satisfied with Zhang Xin.
He is a man himself and understands men.
When Zhang Xin is away, it would be okay for Zhu Gaochi to be vacant for a year or two, but it is impossible for him to remain vacant forever.
He and Xu are not young anymore, and one day they will die.
It would have been fine if he had died earlier. Zhu Gaochi should have left the position of queen to Zhang Xin. After all, they had been friends for so many years.
