First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 632
Zhao Huaian was also ordered to leave, and two eunuchs came in after the palace door opened and closed. There is never a lack of a servant in this palace. No more management.

The review of the memorial at the desk did not end until the evening, but it was much better than the original review until midnight. I got up and stretched my muscles a few times, thinking about going back to the bedroom to take a hot bath.

"My lord, His Royal Highness Prince Jin seeks an audience."

Zhu Biao sighed helplessly and sat down again, stretched out his hand and rubbed the center of his eyebrows and said, "Let him in."

Soon Zhu Xi came in, obviously smelling of alcohol and walking in a vain manner, before he saluted and opened his mouth, Zhu Biao said indifferently: "Is it because the women are tired of playing or the horses of the Imperial Horse Supervisor are not interesting anymore? What kind of tricks do you want to come up with?"

Zhu Xi, who was still smiling on his face, froze all of a sudden, and his blushing face turned even redder. He was neither kneeling nor standing, and his blood surged for a moment, and he stared straight at Zhu Biao behind the desk. .

The servants and maidservants in the hall lowered their toes, but their bodies did not relax in the slightest, their ears trembled eagerly, and if King Jin showed any signs of disrespect, they would immediately pounce on them and take them down.

Zhu Biao walked down to meet Zhu Xi's gaze, with a not-so-burly figure carrying a heavenly pressure, he walked up to him step by step without haste and stood still, using a kind of expression without any emotion He looked down and said softly: "Why, did you say something wrong for brother? Then you kneel down, and brother will apologize to you."

The blood on Zhu Xing's face faded quickly and turned a little pale, as if his spine was pulled away and he fell to the ground as if he was overwhelmed with alcohol. Zhu Biao just looked at him quietly for a while, and his eyes dodged as if he just looked away. .

"Second brother, you have been playing tricks and tricks for ten years. You are not tired of others, and the emperor is not here now. If you have any dissatisfaction, just tell me. You know, your elder brother will not treat you unless it is absolutely necessary. You did it."

Zhu Xi unconsciously cast his eyes on Lao Zhu's court case, and only then did he realize that even though his father didn't love him that much, he would have someone to rely on if he had his father.

"Brother... Brother Huang, I have drunk too much, somehow I broke into this place and disturbed Brother Huang's administration, so get out now."

A trace of boredom flashed in Zhu Biao's eyes. If it was someone else, he would have figured out a way to deal with it long ago, but he could only bear with his younger brother. No matter what, he had to worry about his father's thoughts, not to mention that the second child didn't. Commit some evil deeds.

"No, since you like to come to Jinshen Hall so much, then you can see enough at once."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Biao didn't pay any attention to him, and went straight past Zhu Xi and stepped out of the Jinshen Palace. A group of court ladies and eunuchs hurriedly followed, leaving behind the guards on duty to bow and see him off, and then silently looked at His Royal Highness King Jin who was frozen in place. .

Zhu Biao has always been kind to his younger brothers and sisters, but the second child has passed this time. Originally, he was supposed to farm behind the Hall of Martial Arts according to the old Zhu's instructions. It is already a violation of Zhu Biao to go to the Yumajian to ride and shoot without asking Zhu Biao for instructions. will.

In the past few days, while Zhu Biao was busy with the government affairs of the former government, he slipped out of the palace all day to find those cronies, drinking and having fun. No matter, after all, he was already very disappointed with his second child.

But Zhu Xi came here now and broke Zhu Biao's tacit understanding of turning a blind eye. When Lao Zhu came back, how would he explain? Since he had seen his younger brother, why didn't he discipline him? of?

Zhu Biao was in a bad mood, so he walked faster, and soon stepped into the Chengqian Palace, but just a few steps away, he vaguely heard the voices of Chang Luohua and the children inside, and consciously slowed down the pace with a smile on his face Re-suspend.

"Slaves are waiting to welcome His Highness."

Chang Luohua handed the youngest son who was spitting from laughter in his arms to the nurse beside him, stood up and greeted him, and said: "The concubine welcomes His Highness back to the palace."

"Excuse me."

Zhu Biao stretched out his hand to lift his wife and walked to the bed with a smile on his face, looked at his two sons and said, "You are so energetic, let the elders see you tomorrow."

Chang Luohua nodded and said: "I heard that the sixth uncle of the Wu family is also here. This is the most respected father of the empress."

Zhu Biao said with a smile: "Since I was a child, I heard my mother say that my six uncles have long eyebrows, and that the eyebrows are so long that they allow a pair of chopsticks. This is the most novelty."

"Master, don't forget to invite Uncle Li to come tomorrow, it must be accompanied by an elder."

"Well, I was negligent. I should be accompanied by my uncle. Thank you, Crown Princess, for your reminder."

Empress Ma's mother's elders are several generations higher than Zhu Biao's, but Zhu Biao's status is noble, even if he intends to flatter his mother, it may be difficult to communicate with them harmoniously.

Ordinarily, it would be good to have the elders of the Zhu family, but the old Zhu family died cleanly, and only Li Zhen survived, and Li Zhen had a kind and gentle temperament, so he was a good candidate.

At this time Liu Jin also came back, and Zhu Biao ordered: "Pass down the decree of the palace, and the prime minister will preside over the court tomorrow morning. Liu Jin, you can go to Qiyang Palace tomorrow to invite uncle to a family dinner."

The documents from the Ministry of Rites had already been issued, and since Li Zhen had directly passed on the title to his son, and Li Wenzhong had taken over the defense of Northern Xinjiang, the ceremony of conferring kingship was held in Northern Xinjiang, and Cao Guogong's mansion was also officially promoted to the king's mansion.

And unlike Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and Li Shanchang, the titles are only hereditary rather than hereditary replacements, that is, the number of hereditary titles is limited, and each time the title is inherited, unless the emperor rewards him with favor, the inheritor can only inherit a lower title than the original one. A first-class title.

Zhu Yuanzhang is very kind to the prince of the Li family for three generations, that is, after three generations, he may fall to the Duke of the country. After all, based on the relationship between the prince and Li Wenzhong, the prince will inevitably be granted the title of favor after he succeeds to the throne.

The couple joked with their two sons who had just learned to turn over for a while, and then stopped when a servant came to invite the prince to take a bath. It happened that the two children were also tired from playing. After all, turning over is a physical effort, and it really takes food. The strength of milk.

Zhu Biao patted his sons' buttocks, turned around and went to the side hall of Chengqian Palace to undress and bathe in the soup pool. Compared with the big bucket, Zhu Biao still prefers a larger pool, so he simply built one.

Of course, it is not easy to fill it with hot water. At least dozens of eunuchs have to work hard for an hour, but what is the hard work worth?

The most worthless thing in this world is hard work. Those who work hard hurt their minds, and those who work hard hurt their bodies. It's all suffering.

Those who work with their minds rule people, those who work hard rule people; those who rule people eat people, and those who rule people eat people; the common meaning of the world is also.

While Zhu Biao was soothing his mind, the maids next to him kept adding some powder from the imperial hospital to it, and behind each maid, there was another eunuch staring at their hands, almost without eyes. will blink.

"Master, His Royal Highness Prince Jin fell asleep in Jinshen Hall, snoring like thunder."

With the hot steam in the soup pool, the whole hall is like a fairyland, surrounded by clouds and mist. The enjoyment of the body and senses is small, and the most important thing is the relaxation of the spirit.

Sitting stiffly for a day reviewing memorials and dealing with the courtiers, it is a lie to say that the body is not tired, but what is more tiring is mentally, although it is also fun, but this thing is something that you want to get if you can’t get it, and you want to be lazy when you get it.

Zhu Biao was leaning against the smooth pool wall, sitting on the back of a finely carved dragon turtle, half of his long hair and body under his ribs were soaked in the soup spring, squinting his eyes to fish for water and said: "Don't worry about him, It is just an order that no one will be allowed to take care of the farmland for the King of Jin in the future."

Liu Jin made a promise, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I heard that Concubine Li was about to hear the news, she cried loudly in front of several concubines, and accidentally broke the imperial gifted bowl with red twigs and peony patterns.

Zhu Biao's squinted eyes opened slightly: "What's the use of telling me about the concubines in the harem?"

"Slaves deserve to die."

Seeing that her father was about to lose her temper, Liu Jin hurriedly apologized and retreated. After going out of the palace, she wiped the sweat off her forehead and went to look for the princess. The crown princess who holds the phoenix seal can control it.
