Just then, an arrogant voice rang out, "Second Brother, we're here! Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, aren't you here to see your big brother?"

Only Zhu Yunwen could be so arrogant and domineering. He strode ahead, muttering to himself, "Your Xu Prince's residence is really hard to enter. It's never been this hard to enter before!"

Zhu Yunwen hurriedly walked to the front of the hall and said with some helplessness, "Yunwen, His Majesty and the Crown Prince are coming, so it is only right to be careful."

"Second brother, don't listen to the third brother's nonsense." Zhu Xi also came over and said, "Remember later, don't call your brother 'Your Majesty,' otherwise he will definitely not be happy. If it were someone else's birthday, your brother would definitely not stay for the banquet."

Zhu Yunwen quickly agreed, saying, "Thank you for your lesson, Your Majesty."

Upon arriving at the Xu Prince's residence, Zhu Xi and Zhu Yue naturally took over the responsibility of overseeing the preparations for the birthday banquet. All the procedures required their approval and review. They were not only the Grand Princess, the Emperor's younger sisters, but also Zhu Yunwen's elder sisters.

At this point, not only Princess Ma of Xu, but even Lady Lü was obedient. Although Lady Lü was a concubine of the late emperor, she was only a concubine and could not be considered a 'breeding machine' for the ancestral temple. As for Zhu Xi and Zhu Yue, even if they were married off, they were still members of the Zhu family.

Zhu Yunwen sat there casually, looked at Zhu Yunxi, and asked, "Come here, what have you been learning lately?"

Zhu Yunxi, who was six years old by the traditional Chinese age reckoning, quickly said, "Brother, we've recently started our studies, learning the Three Character Classic, the Hundred Family Surnames, and the Thousand Character Classic."

Zhu Yunwen adopted an older brother's demeanor and reminded him, "Don't just study literature; you should also learn martial arts. Your imperial brother dislikes pedantic scholars the most. You should know that even Confucian scholars value martial arts. The Six Arts of a gentleman should be learned. Come to our residence tomorrow, and we'll give you two imperial horses."

After saying this, Zhu Yunwen looked at his fourth brother and said, "We gave you a sword. Confucius traveled around the states for fourteen years and was proficient in all six arts. Don't be like your second brother. He was disobedient back then and was somewhat lacking in the six arts."

Zhu Yunwen was somewhat embarrassed and ashamed. "I failed to follow Your Majesty's teachings back then, and I have long regretted it."

Sitting to the side, Zhu Xi said, "It's nothing. If you don't like martial arts, then you don't like martial arts. Your brother isn't domineering. Even if someone like the third brother is useless, your brother still accepts it! Your brother hopes we will be successful. If we are not successful, it's not a big deal."

At this point, Lady Lü was even more embarrassed and could only force a smile.

As for Zhu Yunwen, he seemed to be showing some of the behavior of a younger brother at this time. In fact, he knew that back in the palace, his mother, Empress Lü, had a rather unpleasant relationship with his two older sisters, and there had been some conflicts. Under his mother's upbringing, he was not actually very close to his older brothers and sisters.

Even after he established his own government for many years, Zhu Yunwen could still sense that the Lü family and the Chang family's legitimate children were not close.

Zhu Yue then said, "My sister-in-law asked me and my elder sister to help look for a wife these days, and we also sent people over to take a look. Fourth brother, tell me what kind of woman you like. You should start preparing for your wedding."

Zhu Yunwen quickly interjected, "Elder sister, these matters are for elder brother and sister-in-law to decide, why ask the fourth prince?"

"Cultivate oneself and manage one's family well!" Zhu Xi disagreed, standing up to reprimand Zhu Yunwen, "How can one serve the court if one's family is not at peace? Although the fourth prince can choose some concubines in the future, the principal wife chosen by the emperor's elder brother and sister-in-law is not an ordinary one!"

Zhu Yue chimed in, "So when it comes to the fourth prince, he doesn't ask anything? Didn't my brother send someone to ask you about your affair with Princess Xu?"

Zhu Yunwen hastily retreated and could only say, "Your Majesty is indeed more thoughtful; it was I who was shortsighted."

Seeing Zhu Yunxuan's somewhat embarrassed expression, Zhu Yue said, "Third brother, ask fourth brother later. These things need to be done quickly. They should be settled in two or three days at the latest, so that we can report back to the Empress and summon the noblewomen."

Zhu Yunwen, nonchalant and carefree, said while holding his son, "Alright, we'll go back to you tomorrow. If you ask us, we should find some..."

The sharp gazes of his two older sisters silenced Zhu Yunwen. At this moment, the Xu Prince's mansion seemed to have the harmony that siblings should have, without any infighting.

Just as they were chatting, Feng Cheng, dressed in full armor, arrived. "His Majesty is here. Quickly go and wait outside the mansion."
