Chapter 241
Zhu Biao returned to his seat and began to write letters. If he couldn’t go back, at least he had to send a letter from his family. First, he wrote to his father. Fortunately, the first part of the letter was mainly to report on his work and the situation of the relocated people. But I don't know how to start writing.

The relationship between father and son is always reserved, especially between Zhu Yuanzhang and his son, who rely on tacit understanding to do things. There are not many serious exchanges, and there is a feeling of mutual understanding.

Zhu Biao suppressed his inexplicable emotions and told his father not to work too hard to eat on time, etc. After finishing writing, he quickly sealed it, and then began to write letters to his mother and princess. This is very natural, and the content probably means the same.

After putting down the pen, I thought and thought, since I have written it, I might as well write some more. I sighed and started writing letters to Chang Yuchun, Li Wenzhong, Xu Da, Li Shanchang and others. This content is more formal, but probably The content is still to maintain the relationship.

After writing to the influential figures in the court, Zhu Biao called Guo Chong again, and he wrote letters to other nobles who belonged to the Eastern Palace and had their sons here. It would be right to praise their sons more, and there was no such thing in ancient times. Correspondence, writing letters is also necessary to maintain the relationship.

In the end, after Zhu Biao looked at it, he stamped it with the seal of the prince. The next day, he handed it over to Zhu Xi and asked him to take it to the capital for distribution. Next year when Zhu Biao returns to the court, he will formally start governing the court. How many people can there be? It's always good to cooperate.

After sending off the three brothers, Zhu Biao began a more boring life. The cold wind outside Zhu Biao just kept cats in the house, but after a few days, it became lively again. The official Xungui who received Zhu Biao's letter in Beijing We all couldn't wait to reply, and they all sent gifts along the way.

It was rare to be able to communicate with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, which made many people happy, especially Yang Xian and others. The Holy Majesty became more and more indifferent to them, but Hu Weiyong continued to add officials. How could this prevent them from worrying about the future.

The nobles are much simpler. The crown prince gave them face some time ago, and now he wrote a letter to praise his son in person. This really made them feel that His Highness the crown prince attaches great importance to them, and they all tried their best to reciprocate.

Zhu Biao’s daily pleasure is to open letters. It is also very interesting to guess what this person’s needs are from the lines. The reply letter from the palace also came. Empress Ma and Chang Luohua both sent a lot of things Come here, I'm afraid that Zhu Biao will be wronged by being outside.

After another period of time, when the day of heavy snow fell and it was New Year's Eve, Liu Jin was already busy. He would never allow His Royal Highness to suffer grievances outside. The entire mansion was hung with red lanterns. The general charcoal is attached to the door god, and paintings of the god of fortune, ghost judgment, Zhong Kui and other paintings are hung indoors.

On the bed in Zhu Biao's house, eight treasures of gold and silver, and the prayer wheel of Western Fan are hung, or yellow coins are braided like dragons.Sesame stalks are inserted in the oars and cypress branches are burned in the courtyard, which is called Huo Yusui.

Zhu Biao didn't stop it either, and it was rare to be more lively, and all the honorable children scattered in Fengyang were also called back. After all, they came to help, not prisoners, and naturally they couldn't be too bossy during the Chinese New Year.

At noon, a group of eunuchs from the capital came over with several carts of supplies. Zhu Yuanzhang's oral instructions were also very simple, saying that the honorable sons did not disgrace the lintel, and that they had done meritorious service in assisting the prince to move people. This is a reward. After they return to Beijing, they will each have a reward.

Pigs and sheep began to be slaughtered outside the mansion, and the teenagers in the house were drinking the fine wine given by the emperor with red faces, and they were all eagerly talking about what kind of official position they could get after returning to Beijing.

Zhu Biao was not in a hurry to show up, and only those who were not outside could let him go, Zhu Biao glanced at Xu Yungong and Fu Zhong, who was waiting on the sidelines, and asked: "How are the soldiers in the camp outside the city, have all the wine and meat been sent over? "

Xu Yungong bowed and replied: "The five thousand sheep have already rushed over, and by this time they must have been cooked."

Zhu Biao smiled with satisfaction. The [-] elites are all big-bellied men, and they won’t be able to eat enough if they don’t get enough. To be honest, Zhu Biao is a little distressed by the loss of livestock today, but there is no way. If you want to save money, you must be generous when you should be generous.

In addition to supplying these livestock to the army, they were also distributed to the noble sons of the Xinke Scholars outside. The common people did not have it, and Zhu Biao couldn't afford it. At most, they gave some to the orphans and the disabled.

After all, the status of the Zhu family is supported by the army, civil servants and military generals. Who cares about a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy if they are not fed? Give priority to the saying of supplying to the people.

Perhaps only the army of later generations can do it, but that is also cultivated by the times. In this era, doing so will only cause trouble for the people. What will a hungry wolf do when it meets a fattened sheep?

Zhu Biao looked at the time and led a group of people out. It’s fine if he’s not in Fengyang. Now that he’s in Fengyang during the Chinese New Year, how could he not go to worship his ancestors? Lead the princes to worship the ancestral temple in the palace.

In the Nanjing Imperial Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang led all the walking princes towards the ancestral temple. Naturally, the newborns were not used, and the worship ceremony was held according to the rules. At the last step, Zhu Yuanzhang knelt at the front first, and the rest The prince lined up and knelt behind.

Zhu Yuanzhang began to report the achievements of this year to his ancestors. When he said that he looked at his side most, his most cherished prince should be kneeling here, Zhu Yuanzhang turned around and explained to his ancestors why the Zhu family's eldest son was not there.

The rest of the princes lowered their heads, feeling inexplicable grievances in their hearts. The older ones were fine, they were used to it long ago, but the younger ones even pouted their lips, luckily no one could see it.

Zhu Yuanzhang stood up first, and the rest of the princes kowtowed heavily and stood up again, their faces were all solemn and solemn. Zhu Yuanzhang looked at it and said nothing. The New Year is a good day for the people, but it is just a symbol for the emperor. busier.

When Zhu Biao returned home after sacrificing his ancestors, Zhu Yuanzhang had to watch the fireworks. Starting from the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, Aoshan lanterns and fireworks were installed in the palace. The emperor would watch it every day. When the holy car came, the fireworks would be set off. ; When the emperor returned to the palace, he would also blow up fireworks.

At night, Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma sat in the Kunning Palace to accept congratulations from the princes and princesses and present gifts representing filial piety. The princes could be calligraphy and paintings written by themselves, and the princesses usually woven clothes by themselves, which usually represented their hearts. Things are not too luxurious, and the emperor and empress will also give some rewards.

Zhu Biao, the boss, was away, so Chang Luohua took the lead in making shoes and socks for his father-in-law and mother-in-law. It was not very good, but Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma were very happy, especially when their son was away, they naturally felt more pity for themselves daughter-in-law.

Old Zhu cheerfully bestowed Yu Ruyi, and Empress Ma bestowed Fengchai, all of which were gifts with excellent meanings. The rest of the princes and princesses also came out one by one. They can also perform their talents, and the fat little prince and the cute and cute little princesses amuse the old couple very much.
