Mixed with salted fish in Hongwudang

Chapter 40
Erhu saw Zhu Yunqi coming over, and after hearing what he said, his whole body was stunned.

What's the situation, is this kid so confident? He wouldn't think it was for him, would he?
When Erhu thought this way, Zhu Yunqi had already confidently passed him and went to pick up the food boxes carried by the two eunuchs.

This made Erhu even more entangled, how to tell him tactfully that this is not for him?

Just as Zhu Yunwen stretched out his hand to pick up the food box, he saw the two eunuchs take a step back.

"Your Highness, this was given to Xiao Nisun by the Emperor."

Zhu Yunqi was stunned when he heard this. Although he didn't know who Xiao Nisun was, he was sure it wasn't him.

I am the most respectful and filial, how could the grandpa call me that.

Zhu Yunxi asked weakly when he heard the words "Xiao Nisun".

"Uncle Tiger, this isn't for me, is it?"

Erhu laughed when he heard this.

"His Royal Highness, you guessed it right, this is what the emperor gave you!"

"Don't be stupid, hurry up and thank you!"

"Oh oh oh..."

Under Zhu Gui and Zhu Zhi's bewildered gazes, Zhu Yunxi got up, came to Erhu and cupped his hands as a thank you.

The scalp is numb for Erhu, this grandson's Xie En is so perfunctory?
My dog ​​is more professional than you!
Even if you don't kneel down and kowtow, you should at least bow!
But when he saw that the grandson had already taken the food box and ran back to show off to his friends, he stopped worrying about it.

Zhu Yunxi took the food box back to Zhu Gui's small table, opened the food box under the disbelieving eyes of Zhu Gui and Zhu Zhi, brought out the lion's head and crucian carp soup, and warmly greeted them to eat together.

The two looked at the lion head and crucian carp soup, then at Zhu Yunxi, then shook their heads helplessly.

"Zhu Yunxi, you haven't even forgotten the rules, have you?"

"The food given by the emperor must be eaten face to face. You can't give it away casually, and it's best to eat all of it. Only then will it appear respectful."

Zhu Yunxi was very puzzled when he heard the words.

"Why?"

"That's the rule, how do we know why!"

After Zhu Gui finished complaining angrily, he waved at Zhu Yunxi as if chasing flies away.

"Go, go, eat while you eat, don't greedy us here!"

Zhu Yunxi was not annoyed when he heard the words, but took a plate containing lion heads, and put two in each of their bowls.

While dialing, also talking.

"ah!"

"Why was I so careless and dropped two of them!"

"ah!"

"Why did you drop two more!"

"You two little emperor uncles, you see this is all dropped, it's a waste if you don't eat it."

"Grandpa Huang taught me that it is not easy to think about the origin of a porridge and a meal. It is difficult to keep thinking about material resources."

"If this is wasted, Grandpa Huang will definitely be angry."

Zhu Gui and Zhu Zhi heard these words, and saw that the boy was so smooth in doing things, so they stopped hesitating immediately and picked up their rice bowls and started to eat.

At the same time, in the hearts of the two, the evaluation of Zhu Yunxi rose sharply.

It turns out that this guy has already taken a place with his father without saying a word!
From this point of view, it is really uncertain who will get the position of emperor grandson!

The other princes and grandchildren in the small dining hall almost burst into tears when they saw the lion's head to eat.

Zhu Yunxi looked at the opposite table, with tears in his eyes, and looked at his elder brother with aggrieved eyes.

"Brother, I want to eat lion's head too!"

When Zhu Yunwen heard this, his face immediately turned dark.

"To shut up!"

"Eat, eat, eat, eat every day, do you think you are a pig?"

"Besides, what's so delicious about a lion's head? Go home tonight and let my concubine stew chicken for you!"

"I'm not... I want to eat a lion's head, woo woo woo..."

Zhu Yunxuan was embarrassing in front of so many people, and he was already full of anger in his heart, and now Zhu Yunxuan was still rolling around, which made him even more angry.

"Zhu Yunxi!"

"Can you still eat well? If you continue to make trouble, believe it or not, I will beat you!"

Zhu Yunxi cried even more sadly when he heard this, but he didn't dare to make a fuss anymore.

Because the big brother's words are not just threats, if he dares to continue making trouble, his big brother really dares to fight.

Just when Zhu Yunxi was crying, Zhu Yunxi walked over, put two lion heads into his bowl, patted his little head and said.

"Don't say I'm taking advantage of you, one chicken for two lion heads, you're making a lot of money!"

"Now we're both clean!"

Seeing that he had a lion's head, Zhu Yunxi was so happy that he couldn't see his eyes, so he lay down in the bowl and started to eat.

As a child, all he cares about is food but no pagoda.

After Zhu Yunxi comforted Zhu Yunxi, he immediately looked at Zhu Yunqi with dissatisfaction.

"Second brother, you are too unkind. When the fourth brother is being bullied, you don't help to stand out. The fourth brother wants a lion's head, but you are so energetic that you even threaten to beat him!"

"Fourth brother, this is the bad luck of several lifetimes, because you are such an unreliable brother!"

After Zhu Yunxi had run out of Zhu Yunqi, he swaggered back to Zhu Gui's table with the tray in his hand, and the two of them were stunned for a moment.

This grandson's speech is so powerful, the eldest grandson of the emperor must be blown up?
Sure enough, Zhu Yunwen soon became furious.

"Zhu Yunxi, what did you call me just now!"

"Second brother?"

"Although my elder brother died early, you can't deny that he did exist."

"Starting from my elder brother Zhu Xiongying, aren't you the second child?"

Zhu Yunwen's face turned green when he heard the words.

"Zhu Yunxi!"

"Your elder brother Zhu Xiongying was only eight years old when he died, not even young enough to become king!"

"According to the usual practice, if you don't seal the king, you will only be included in the spectrum, not in sequence!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yunxi couldn't help looking at Zhu Gui and Zhu Zhi who were beside him. He didn't know anything about the rules of Ming Dynasty, and he didn't know there was such a rule at all.

Seeing Zhu Yunxi looking over, Zhu Zhi secretly nodded towards him to show that there was indeed this rule, but Zhu Gui who was sitting by the side suddenly stood up.

"Zhu Yunqi, what you said is wrong."

"In the 15th year of Hongwu, the father named the eldest grandson of the emperor as the king of Yu, and specially gave him the posthumous title as Huai, to express his condolences and nostalgia..."

"you……"

"What about me, am I wrong, or do you think it's wrong for the father to pursue your elder brother as King Yu?"

"I……"

Zhu Yunwen was speechless by Zhu Gui's words, and couldn't find an excuse to refute.

Zhu Gui knew very well that this life was destined to be the fate of the vassal king, even if the top ten emperor brothers were all dead, it would not be his turn to be the prince.

Relatively speaking, although Zhu Yunqi was a generation later than him, he was the most popular candidate for the heir.

He is destined to be a vassal king, and he is full enough to provoke the future emperor?

However, Zhu Yunxi's performance today, as well as the imperial meal just now, brought him a little wild hope.

If I help Zhu Yunxi fight for the heir candidate, wouldn't I gain more in the future?
Zhu Yunxi didn't think too much about it, seeing that his elder brother had already been crowned king, he immediately finalized the order.

"Since my eldest brother has already become the king, he is a well-deserved eldest brother in our Prince's Mansion. You can only be ranked second as the emperor's grandson, and I am ranked third!"

When Zhu Yunxi said this, he greeted Zhu Yunxi again.

"Zhu Yunxi, from now on let you be the fourth younger brother, do you have any objections?"

Zhu Yunxi was eating happily, when he heard Zhu Yunxi calling him, he immediately wiped his mouth and returned.

"No comment!"

"If you can eat lion's head every day, you can make me the fifth younger brother!"

Seeing the child's cooperation, Zhu Yunxi immediately rewarded him with a lion's head.

"Since everyone has no objections, then this matter is finalized!"

"From now on, no one is allowed to call my second elder brother the eldest grandson of the emperor, but the second grandson of the emperor!"

Erhu, who was inquiring about the emperor's grandchildren's situation in the morning, suddenly felt his heart skip a beat when he heard this.

This seems to be a dispute between children, but it is actually a dispute between the heirs of the Ming Dynasty!
It's just that at such a young age, does Zhu Yunxi really have such deep scheming?
