Chapter 304
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, showing a very satisfied smile...

What is Royal Family?

Royal family affection has never been a cold etiquette, not a word that follows the rules, nor is it a rule to abide by one's duty.

Only this kind of "bargaining" can fully reflect the family affection...

This is in line with Zhu Yunxi's nature, and it also allows Zhu Yuanzhang, a grassroots emperor, to feel warm and happy from the heart.

"My son pays homage to my father! My father's holy peace!"

Zhu Yunxi helped Zhu Yuanzhang to the Hall of Wuying and just sat down when all the princes and princesses hurriedly bowed down and saluted.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his sons, daughters, and grandchildren with joy on his face.

"Let's get down, today is a family feast, there is no need to be formal!"

"Thank you, Father."

Only then did everyone stand up, looking at Zhu Yuanzhang who was sitting in the first seat, they were also full of joy.

After waving his hand to let everyone sit down, Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Are you all here? We just found out about this family feast, and you are teaming up with the grandson to deceive us."

Qin Wang Zhu Xi said with a smile: "Father, we are just following orders, and we have not made an alliance with the grandson, but we are also very happy to see Father!"

Zhu Yunxi sat on the chair next to Zhu Yuanzhang, and immediately retorted: "Second Uncle, you are not being kind. You promised to surprise Grandpa Huang, so turn around and sell me, no! Later You must drink three glasses of wine!"

"Acknowledge the punishment and accept the punishment, as long as the emperor is happy, he can be fined as much as he likes!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "However, the grandson's arrangement is very much in line with my wishes! We are also very happy! Our family can get together to have a New Year's Eve dinner, that is really great! The grandson should be rewarded! "

Zhu Yunxi hurriedly saluted and said, "Thank you, Grandpa, for your reward!"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved him to sit down, and said to everyone: "We have also heard that you have strictly restrained your subordinates when you returned to Beijing this time, and you have not caused any trouble, let alone harmed the people. We are also very happy!"

"I don't dare to be presumptuous, I ask my father to learn from me." All the princes replied in unison.

"Originally, when Yunxi told us to let you all return to Beijing, we were still very worried. We were afraid that we would waste people's money and cause trouble. It was Yunxi's repeated requests that we agreed to... It seems that our sons are sensible. Already."

Hear the string song and know the elegant meaning.

Zhu Yuanzhang's purpose in saying this is to tell everyone that the reason why they were able to return to Beijing is all thanks to the grandson!
On the one hand, it highlights Zhu Yunxi's kindness to everyone, and on the other hand, it also tells everyone how important the emperor's grandson's words are!

Zhu Yuanzhang is supporting Zhu Yunxie's platform!
As the king of Qin, Zhu Yu, who had already stood in the team, he said quickly after hearing the words: "Thank you for your kindness, His Royal Highness! For allowing us to return to the capital to meet Emperor Father, your great kindness will never be forgotten!"

Now that King Qin took the lead to express his attitude, and Zhu Yuanzhang was watching,
Everyone also had no choice but to salute and thank them, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun."

"Uncle Wang, you are welcome. We are a family, so we should get together more often. My nephew also misses Uncle Wang very much and is eager to see each other."

At this time, the eunuch Wang Zhong reminded him in his ear.

Zhu Yunxi stood up and said to everyone: ""Shangshu·Hong Fan" talks about the five blessings, that is, longevity, wealth, health, good virtue, and final life. "Shou" ranks first, which shows how important it is!" "The original meaning is "long"..."

""Book of Rites·Jieyi" said: "The year is as expensive as the world, and it is second to the family. "So filial piety and respect for the elderly is the human relationship in the world!"

Then he turned to Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Grandpa Huang, it's just your birthday. My grandson knows that Grandpa Huang doesn't want to be extravagant, nor do I want too much extravagance. Grandpa Huang's benevolent government and love for the people are obvious to all!"

"But as a junior, I have to express my filial piety! I have to congratulate Grandpa Huang on his birthday! It also shows the royal ethics and the filial piety of children and grandchildren!"

"Then today, all the uncles are here, the family is reunited, and when we say goodbye to the old and usher in the new, my grandson wishes my grandpa a healthy dragon body and a long life!"

After saying that, he waved his hand, and there was a "crash" on the wall of the main hall, and then a scroll fell down.

On the beautifully woven scroll, a huge red "Shou" character suddenly appeared.

Before everyone could react, Zhu Yunxi knelt down and saluted and said: "The emperor's grandson Zhu Yunxi presents 20 guan as a birthday gift, and congratulations to the emperor's grandfather, His Majesty, the blessings and prosperity! Long live, long live, long live!"

20 guan? !
Qin Wang, Jin Wang, Yan Wang and others were stunned!

That's 20 guan!

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "Please hurry up! What are you doing with so many congratulatory gifts? We are not short of money!"

Zhu Yunxi said carelessly and awe-inspiringly: "Grandpa Huang worked hard day and night for the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty. Mere yellow and white things can't express my grandson's gratitude. In case my grandpa is very pleased, please accept it!"

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately stretched out his hand, grabbed Zhu Yunxi's hand and said a little excitedly: "Good grandson! You are really our good grandson! Since you are filial, then we will accept it! Qingtong, take our King Wu Give the sword to the grandson of the emperor!"

Everyone cast envious eyes immediately!
You must know that the King Wu Sword is the sword that Zhu Yuanzhang used to kill the enemy when he fought on the battlefield!
It is Zhu Yuanzhang's favorite thing!
And in ancient times, it was quite a grand reward to give a matching sword!

Zhu Yunxie hurriedly said: "Grandpa, how can my grandson be able to withstand King Wu's sword, my grandson is terrified, please take back my life!"

Zhu Yuanzhang took his hand and said, "We were the king of Wu before, and you were also the king of Wu before you became the grandson of the emperor. As the grandson of the emperor of Ming Dynasty, you know how to be filial. You are just right!"

At this time, Qingtong had already fetched the matching sword, put his hands on Zhu Yuanzhang's, and Zhu Yuanzhang handed it to Zhu Yunxi,
Said: "Take the sword!"

"Thank you, His Majesty the Grandfather, for bestowing the sword!"

Zhu Yunxi knelt on one knee, raised both hands above his head to receive the sword.

Zhu Yuanzhang helped him up with both hands, and praised him repeatedly.

Seeing this, Qin Wang Zhu Xi gritted his teeth and became cruel, and hurried forward to salute and congratulate.
Said: "The emperor's second son, Zhu Xi, would like to attach the tail of His Highness the emperor's grandson, and present a congratulatory gift of 15 guan. I respectfully wish the father and emperor a blessing like the East China Sea, and a longevity longer than Nanshan!"

Originally, I thought it would be enough to contribute 20 guan, but Zhu Yunxi suddenly raised the standard to [-] guan, how can I get [-] guan now?

Even if it's to avoid suspicion, it can't be too shabby, right?
What's more, Zhu Yu is still the eldest of Zhu Yuanzhang's sons now, so it's shameful to have less contributions.

Moreover, the 20 crowns of the emperor's grandson were praised and rewarded by Zhu Yuanzhang, which is tantamount to sending out a signal,
Is that what you guys want to make me happy?Want to be rewarded?

Then send us money quickly!

So no matter what, King Qin must set an example for his brothers!
In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang's lingering anger towards him still happened, so he just took the opportunity to show it!
Sure enough, when he heard what Zhu Xi said, Zhu Yuanzhang seemed a little happy, and said with a smile on his face: "Okay, the king of Qin has a heart!"

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's smiling face, Zhu Xi immediately felt that the 15 guan was worth it!

As long as you can make your father happy, no matter how much money you spend, it's worth it!

Jin Wang Zhu Yan couldn't help touching his sleeve, he was really full of bitterness!
Didn't you agree on [-] guan?
Second brother, you can't handle it!

The key is that it's fine if you don't carry it, but what can you do with my brother!

I had no choice but to bite the bullet and stepped forward, "The third son of the emperor, Zhu Yan, presents a congratulatory gift of 15 guan. Congratulations to the father, the emperor, the sun and the moon, and the song, crane and Changchun!"

"Get up, it's good..."

The corner of Yan Wang Zhu Di's mouth twitched a few times, feeling like his heart was bleeding...

But King Qin and King Jin have already sent congratulatory gifts, and he has to go to pay his respects immediately, there is no delay, so he hastened to clear up his mood,

He stepped forward to salute and said: "The fourth son of the emperor, Zhu Di, presents a birthday gift of 15 guan. Congratulations to the father, the sun and the moon shine together, and the age is not old!"

It's like in modern society, when several brothers form a group to give gifts, and there are no special circumstances, the congratulatory gifts are generally the same.

It's impossible for other brothers to give [-], but you only give [-]. Even if others don't say anything, you can't hold back your face!

It's so embarrassing!

In ancient times, face was sometimes more important than life!
So even though he was very reluctant, Zhu Di could only pretend to laugh.

With a smile on his face, Zhu Yuanzhang said happily: "I have a heart, I have a heart, but you don't have a lot of savings. Is 15 guan too much?"

At this moment, Zhu Di really wanted to say...there are too many...

But I can't afford to lose people!
"Gold and silver have a price, but filial piety is priceless! Congratulations to the father and the emperor, the child loves it..."

"You guard Beiping Mansion and often fight the Mongols. It's hard work... Sit back and sit down."

"Thank you, father, my son will leave."

At this time, King Zhu of Zhou came forward and knelt down to salute and said: "The fifth son of the emperor, Zhu Wei, presents a congratulatory gift of 12 guan. I wish the father prosperity and health, and he will not grow old in spring and autumn!"

"The emperor's sixth son, Zhu Zhen, presents a congratulatory gift of 12 guan, and wishes his father and emperor to be as blessed as the long flowing water of the East China Sea, and to live longer than Nanshan!"

"The emperor's seventh son, Zhu Yu, presents a congratulatory gift of 12 guan, wishing his father's royal family to have the charm of Zhilan longevity, and people like pines and cypresses to grow new."

Because Zhu Yuanzhang's eighth, eighth, ninth and tenth sons are no longer there, it is the turn of the king of Shu.

"Zhu Chun, the eleventh son of the emperor, presents a congratulatory gift of 12 guan, and wishes his father to have today every year and today every year!"

"Zhu Bo, the twelfth son of the emperor, presents a congratulatory gift of [-] guan, and wishes his father a pine tree on the steep bank of Jinsha, with strong branches to shape the ancestor dragon..."

"The thirteenth son of the emperor, Zhu Gui, presents a congratulatory gift of [-] guan, wishing his father, the emperor, a long life and a three thousand year old..."

"..."

Next, Zhu Yuanzhang had already congratulated the three kings of Sai, the sons of Su Wang Zhu Li and Liao Wang Zhu Zhi, and immediately Qing Wang Zhu Wei.

Next, among Zhu Yuanzhang's sons, none of them took up the vassal state, and among them, Ning Wang Zhu Quan took the first place.

Next came Min King Zhu Wei, Gu King Zhu Wei, etc., until the youngest Ivan Zhu, who was less than five years old, but became king last year.

You must know that Zhu Yuanzhang would reward a large sum of property when he became a feudal vassal.

And this property is pretty amazing!
This is like the division of the family of a wealthy landowner. Although the largest share will be reserved for his eldest son, the other sons also have their own share.

After adding the feudal clan, you can enjoy more income from the fief, so you will be richer.

However, the prince who has not yet entered the domain, although he can also enjoy the salary, it will not be lacking.

But in the use of money, it seems not so rich.

Therefore, the congratulatory gifts offered by the princes who have not yet entered the feudal domain are also reduced.

But also within reason.

After the congratulations of the princes and grandchildren, the delicacies carefully cooked by the princesses were brought up.

"Concubine Shu presents steamed mutton..."

"Da Concubine presents steamed dragon liver..."

"Concubine Zhao presents hazel pine sugar porridge..."

"Princess Xie of the Jin Dynasty presents a butterfly scroll..."

"Princess Yan Xu presents five-flavored steamed chicken..."

"Jiangdu princess presents hawthorn and jade silk tripe soup..."

Following the eunuch's notification, the court ladies will bring plates of delicacies to the table in order for Zhu Yuanzhang and the royal family to enjoy.

There is a saying: "When the birthday feast is held, the painting hall is full of flowers like embroidered flowers, auspicious smoke sprays out beasts, and the curtains are fragrant and windy; a little star turns into a show in the world, and the music of Shaoyin plays, and two rows of red sleeves, together persuade longevity wine.
