Chapter 6 The Prince, Grandson, and Fourth Uncle

On New Year's Eve, Queen Ma was happily preparing lunch, which was a "family dinner".

After the Chinese New Year, we will be five years old, so this age is naturally relatively young.

Holding the little sister Zhu Yue, Zhu Xiongying teased the little girl, "Yue'er, kiss the emperor?"

Zhu Yue was very disrespectful and stretched out her hand and pushed away Zhu Xiongying's face, looking like she was about to cry at any time.

"Xi'er, kiss the emperor." Looking at Zhu Xi who was looking at him beside him, Zhu Xiongying said, "The emperor's love Xi'er the most!"

Zhu Xi immediately ran over and happily pouted his mouth and kissed Zhu Xiongying. Zhu Yue was unhappy now. This was her emperor brother. She could not kiss her, but others could not kiss her!

Zhu Xiongying is proud, and it is normal for children to compete for favor, and there is no need to be surprised at all.

Zhu Biao was a little funny and then said, "Ying'er, don't you see you hug Yun's?"

"Yun Yu is not good, he is too young." Zhu Xiongying said for granted, "What's more, he is a boy, and the men of the Zhu family are all big heroes!"

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting aside and looking at his children and grandchildren, became happy immediately. Sometimes he felt that his prince was a little weak. After all, he was a Confucian disciple and had a bit of a kind personality. Our eldest grandson is good, tough and decisive!

The prince's concubine, Lu, was a little worried. If she hadn't raised Zhu Xi, Zhu Yue and Zhu Yunxi, such a family dinner would not be qualified to attend.

In fact, Lu was originally very grateful to the Crown Princess because her ancestors were descendants of Lu Wenhuan, a general of the Southern Song Dynasty. Lu Wenhuan later surrendered to the Yuan army, killed many people, and surrendered to the generation of Lu Ben.

This also led to Zhu Biao's dislike of her, that is, the Crown Princess was kind and caring, which allowed her to gain a foothold in the East Palace.

Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhu Yunwen, who was about two years old, could usually see his prince's father. But the emperor's grandfather and the queen's grandmother were rarely seen.

After the happy family dinner, Lü took Zhu Xi and Zhu Yue away with him, but Zhu Yunxi did not wake up.

Watching her eldest grandson sleeping on the couch, Queen Ma sighed, "Zhongba, did you see it?"

"What did you see?" Zhu Yuanzhang said irritably, "If you see it, you won't see it. Our eldest grandson is sensible and polite. If you don't want to worry, we have to pretend not to know! Don't say anything, we'll pretend to be confused!"

Queen Ma felt even more distressed, "Why is this young child so hard to think about!"

During the lunch just now, Zhu Xiongying respected his emperor grandfather and grandmother, and naturally the prince Zhu Biao was indispensable. He was very respectful and thoughtful to thank the prince's concubine Lu for taking care of her younger brother and sister.

In fact, even Zhu Biao could see that Zhu Xiongying only ate a few vegetarian dishes throughout the lunch. But he coaxed his younger brother and sister to eat more and made the elders happy.

Queen Ma remembered something and asked, "Zhengsi, how did you arrange it?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said naturally, "We will take our children and grandchildren to send our ancestor tablets to the Taimiao for worship. Our grandson will naturally go. We went before, but now we will naturally go even more! We have decided that our Ying'er is the eldest grandson of the legitimate son and grandson, and he and Biao'er hold the tablets of our parents."

Queen Ma was stunned for a moment and said, "Isn't this a good fit? Those people from the Ministry of Rites have to talk too much again!"

"Too talk?" Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily, "This is our family matter, we have the final say! The second, the third, the third, and the fourth, also want to be a vassal. It just so happens that our eldest grandson can be a vassal."

Queen Ma was silent for a moment, then said, "Chung Ba, you have also seen what happened today, and then Lü is gentle. If you don't continue to establish the crown princess now, it's just like that. You said that if Biao'er ascended the throne, the harem will not be without a lord, and the queen will be established sooner or later."

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and then said, "That's true. I think we're afraid of this. You said that if Lu becomes the queen one day, then her descendants will be the legitimate son. We are beacons, and our Ying'er is the crown prince. But now that Lao Chang is gone, the Chang'er will not be able to take responsibility, and our Ying'er is also lacking in help."

When Empress Ma was silent, Zhu Yuanzhang slapped his thigh, "Wait, we have already set rules to establish a legitimate and chief. If we are leaving, we will first make Ying'er the crown prince, so that those people can avoid the random thoughts!"

Zhu Xiongying woke up after a moment of sniffing. With the help of the maid, she took a shower and changed into a crown suit.

Crown clothing is naturally a kind of dress, a dress worn during major ceremonies.

In fact, in the first four days of the official sacrifice, Zhu Xiongying took a shower and changed clothes every day, and with his emperor and his father, he would go to the jaistry to clean himself every day to show his sincerity and respect.

According to the imperial ancestors of the Ming Dynasty, the eldest son of the crown prince was the crown prince, and the second son and the concubine son were both appointed as the prince of the county at the age of ten.

So Zhu Xiongying is just a "grandson" now, and she is not old enough, so naturally she has not yet been enthroned.

Zhu Yuanzhang walked on a dragon and tiger steps, wore a twelve crowns with crowns, big fur, black clothes and robe. The top was painted with six chapters of sun, moon, stars, mountains, dragons, and flower insects, and the bottom was embroidered with algae, fire, pink rice, Zongyi, fu, and fu six chapters of patterns, a total of twelve chapters.

Zhu Biao also came, with nine crowns and nine chapters of clothes. Dragon, mountain, Huazhe, fire, Zongyi, pink rice, fu, fu.

Zhu Xiongying had eight crowns and seven chapters of clothes, Hua Cang, Fire, Zong Yi, algae, powder rice, fu, fu.

Zhu Yuanzhang was in a good mood and looked at his children and grandchildren and said, "Let's go, follow us to Fengxian Palace."

Zhu Biao nodded with a smile, but at this time Zhu Xiongying bowed, "Your Majesty, Sun Chen has something to report."

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned and then said, "Get up, get up and talk!"

Zhu Xiongying slowly spoke, "Your Majesty, my mother has passed away, and Sun Chen should pay homage to you."

"Bastard!" Zhu Biao was unhappy and immediately said, "Your mother entered my Zhu family's ancestral hall and she would have incense."

Zhu Xiongying looked at Zhu Biao and said slowly, "My son knows that Sun Chen wants to go to Kaiping Palace after the New Year, and I hope it will be approved."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked back at Empress Ma, and Empress Ma nodded slightly. They had said in private that in this time, the grandson must have brought up this matter.

"Ying'er, this matter is reasonable." Zhu Yuanzhang said quickly, "Well, you go to the palace in the second year of the year. Your mother is gone, your uncle is still there, and this nephew is also a rule to see his uncle. At that time, we will let our ceremonial guard send you there."

Zhu Biao was stunned and then smiled, "Father, that's beyond ritual. If the father gives Ying'er decent and Chang'er decent, he will give Ying'er an imperial edict to take advantage of the prince's ceremonial guard. The child has prepared some gifts, and the father and mother will give them some. If he is worried, send a few caring people to follow him."

Queen Ma immediately laughed and said quickly, "Okay, okay, I have prepared some cloaks and vests, and let Ying'er send them over."

Zhu Yuanzhang led his son and grandson to Fengxian Hall, and then Zhu Biao took Zhu Xiongying to stand up properly first.

It's interesting to say that Zhu Yuanzhang is definitely a workaholic and a triathlon champion.

Zhu Xiongying's thirteenth uncle Zhu Gui is only less than half a year older than Zhu Xiongying. The 14th uncle Zhu O, two years younger than Zhu Xiongying, is said to have just been weaned. The 18th uncle has just been a month old. But the 19th uncle is probably born.

Because the second and third brothers have already become vassals, Zhu Di has become the oldest among the princes except the prince.

Although he was unwilling to accept it, he still stood behind the grandson obediently.

Facing his father, Zhu Di did not dare to have any thoughts. In front of his elder brother, Zhu Di was also an extremely well-behaved brother. He was just thinking about being a vassal, just thinking about going to Yandi to be free and easy, leading troops to fight.

Zhu Xiongying suddenly spoke, turned around and asked Zhu Di, "Uncle Fourth, has the time to be a vassal?"

Zhu Di smiled and said, "Not yet! My eldest nephew, if the fourth uncle is a vassal, go and play with the fourth uncle!"

Zhu Biao turned around and glared at Zhu Di, "Just give me some rules! If you dare to imitate your second brother and third brother, you don't need your father to deal with it, I will deal with you first!"

Zhu Di shrank his neck and dared not speak, so he could only nod his head obediently.

The second son Zhu Chuang was smart and wise in childhood. He only became a vassal in May this year. As a result, he built a large-scale fortification in the palace, which was a waste of money and wasted money. He had just let himself go when he was scolded by Zhu Yuanzhang.

The third brother is not a good-looking lamp, and he has beautiful eyes and beards. Gu Yi has power and beat the chef for trivial matters on his way to the vassal.

As a result, he was scolded by Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang believed that the chef was in charge of food and was punished at will, and he might be poisoned. He scolded Zhu Jian and said that during his conquest to pacify the world, everyone would be punished one by one, but for twenty-three years, he did not dare to blame the chef "Xu Xingzu".

This Xu Xingzu and Zhu Xiongying searched for a long time, but couldn't find any shadow.

"Uncle Fourth, let my younger brother come to the palace in two days. I am my older brother, so I should see my younger brother." Zhu Xiongying showed an innocent smile and said to Zhu Di, "If Uncle Fourth is a vassal, I don't know when I will see my younger brother."

Zhu Di's eldest son Zhu Gaochi was born in Fengyang Mansion this summer, and Zhu Xiongying still wants to see this "fat brother".

Zhu Di nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, if Gao Chi returns to the capital, he will naturally let the grandson see it."

Zhu Biao nodded slightly and then said, "Silence!"
