Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 42

Hongwu eight years, New Year's Day.It's the first day of the first month.

Last night, Queen Chu's mother and son watched the new year with the whole family in Qianqing Palace, and it was almost four o'clock when they returned to the palace to sleep.

Zhu Zhen felt that not long after falling asleep, there was crackling outside, and the whip was set off again.

"It's his grandma's, give me peace!" He was always very angry when he got up.

"Your Highness, we won't release it in our palace, and we will also release it in other palaces." Mu Xiang, who had a new look all over his body, wiped his face with a warm face towel, and whispered softly: "Besides, today is the grand court meeting of Zhengdan, Your Highness. You have to get up quickly, just bear with it."

"Grandma, I still have to go to work on the first day of junior high school." His Highness King Chu, who was forced to open the business, looked very angry.

Mu Xiang coaxed and comforted His Royal Highness, put on the court clothes, and led him to the main hall to kowtow to Concubine Hu Chong.

Concubine Hu Chong was wearing Zhai clothes and a phoenix crown, sitting on the throne with a rare seriousness.

"I wish my mother and concubine New Year's greetings, I wish her mother and concubine will always be young and smile often!" Zhu Zhen kowtowed to his concubine mother respectfully.

Although Mu Xiang told him just now, what should I say in the congratulatory message.But he still wanted to use his own words to congratulate the concubine mother most sincerely.

"Hey, baby, get up quickly." Concubine Hu Chong smiled like a flower, happily pulled her son up, and gave him a bunch of brand new copper coins.

"Take the New Year's money well, and have another safe year."

Zhu Zhen took the string of copper coins wrapped in red silk with both hands, I rubbed them, it was so heavy... He suddenly realized that this was the first time he touched money in his life.

But he didn't notice that it wasn't real money either.It's a specially made lucky money. Instead of "Hongwu Tongbao" engraved on it, there are words like "Auspicious Ruyi" and "Longevity for a Hundred Years"...

~~
After taking the New Year's money, the mother and concubine drove him outside to 'drop a thousand pieces of gold'.

Although he is confused, but with Wang Defa, he can do whatever he is asked to do.

When I came to the front yard, I saw that the palace people had already removed the gate bars of Wan'an Palace, and wrapped both ends with red silk.

"Dropping a thousand pieces of gold means throwing it three times on the ground in the courtyard, begging our Wan'an Palace to have a safe, auspicious and smooth new year." Wang Defa smiled and pointed at the gate bar.

Of course, Zhu Zhen would not be allowed to do it himself.With this beam-like door bar, let alone His Royal Highness the King of Chu couldn’t lift it, even the Overlord of Chu would have to shake his head when he saw it...

Twelve strong fire fighters chanted and raised the door bar together. Zhu Zhen put his hands on it symbolically, and then chanted and threw it up, hitting the ground with a bang, and everyone cheered together. .

If it happens again and again, it will be a thousand dollars.Among other things, it's quite relaxing.

~~
After returning to the main hall, he had something to eat and was ready to go to court.

Of course, there is also particularity in what to eat on the first day of the new year. The palace has to drink pepper wine, eat water and snacks.

Water dim sum is dumplings.

Pepper wine is pepper wine and cypress wine.You may ask again, what is that stuff?

Well, pepper wine is a wine made with Sichuan pepper; cypress wine is a wine made with arborvitae leaves.

It is said that pepper is the essence of Yuheng star, and it is hard to grow old if you take it.Bai is also a fairy medicine, so the younger generation is required to drink wine for the elders.

Miao Shanggong was holding a vermilion lacquer tray with two wine jugs and two wine cups on it.

Concubine Hu Chong looked at the two jugs of wine with bright eyes, and she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, she even pretended to say: "Son, this is not a mother's breaking the precepts, right? Hohohoho..."

"Not counting." Zhu Zhen helplessly shook his head.

"Fall up," Hu Chongfei hurriedly urged Miao Shanggong. "Pour more, pour more."

I still didn't forget to argue with my son: "Mother is not greedy, but the wine should be full and the tea should be shallow, right?"

Seeing his mother and concubine being so cautious, Zhu Zhen felt very sorry, and with the New Year's Eve...

"As long as the concubine does not drink alcohol at the banquet, it is not impossible to have a private drink at dinner and not get drunk." Holding the pepper wine, he said this sentence, which made Concubine Hu Chong very happy, but reminded himself in the future, I just want to smack my mouth.

"Don't worry, concubine mother will definitely restrain herself. Just drink a little cup every day to help you sleep." Fearing that he would regret it after speaking, Concubine Hu Chong restrained the urge to dance with great patience.Gracefully took over the wine cup and tasted it briefly.

'It's so bitter and numbing that even dogs don't drink it! 'The imperial concubine is full of disgust. She has a hundred kinds of fine wine, so why torture herself?
It's not like the appearance of the long drought and the rain just now.

~~
After a simple breakfast, the mother and son went out together, and it was still dark at the moment.

Concubine Hu Chong is going to Kunning Palace to pay New Year's greetings to the Queen, while His Royal Highness King Chu is going to Qianqing Palace to find his father.

After paying New Year's greetings to his father, Boss Zhu led his twelve sons, as well as the eldest grandson of the emperor in his arms, to the Taimiao.

Rather than going to worship the ancestors, it's more like going to show off to his parents.

Zhu Zhen followed Fifth Brother step by step, looking back at his little brothers, it was also full of shock.

The youngest in Dabentang is the eighth, but behind him are the tenth Lu Wang Zhu Tan, the eleventh Zhu Chun, the twelve Zhu Bai, and the thirteenth Zhu Gui.

Zhu Gui, the youngest among them, was only three months older than the emperor's eldest grandson...

I have to admire my father, who can spare so much time to give birth to so many children when he is taking care of himself and taking care of everything.

"We have so many younger brothers..." the fourth brother also sighed.

Zhu Zhenxin said, half of our brothers are still unborn...

"Yes, yes. I almost remember it, but I can't remember the name." The second brother also said with emotion.

"Then you should call me brother." Zhu Di advised him.

"Okay, great idea."

"Five hundred." The third brother rolled his eyes at the two of them.

~~
When they arrived at the Taimiao, the emperor, the prince and the eldest grandson were in front, and the king of Qin led ten younger brothers behind him, kowtowed to the tablets of the ancestors and offered offerings.

Zhu Zhen took a sneak peek and saw the four former emperors enshrined in the hall of enjoyment, namely——

Emperor Injo Chun tabooed May Fourth, this is his grandfather.

Emperor Xizuyu taboo the first day of junior high school, his great-grandfather.

Emperor Yi Zu Heng taboo four or nine, his great ancestor.

De Zu Xuan Emperor taboo hundred and six, his fifth ancestor.

Thinking of his father's original name Chongba, this name really has family characteristics.

~~
After worshiping the ancestors, Zhu Yuanzhang took his children and grandchildren back to Fengtianmen Square to hold the New Year's Eve.

This is the grandest court meeting of the year, and the guard of honor is also of the highest standard. Four elephants were even pulled out to feast the eyes of the little princes who have never seen the world. Want to go up and touch.

The brothers rushed to take the baby away to avoid being swept away by the elephant's trunk.

Apart from this small episode, the court ceremony is still very solemn.The majesty and majesty of the guards, the rectification of all officials, and the respectful envoys of various countries fully demonstrate the atmosphere of a great country!

In addition, there are old folks from Fengyang who, on behalf of the Li people, paid New Year greetings to His Majesty the Emperor.

Amidst the sound of playing music, Zhu Yuanzhang stepped onto the golden platform with steady steps, sat upright on the golden lacquered dragon chair, and accepted the New Year's worship of all nations and peoples!

But he is no longer intoxicated by the sense of accomplishment brought by these grand ceremonies like he was in the first few years when he was emperor.

Looking down at the thousands of courtiers kneeling in front of him, he thought of the spring when he was 16 years old...

In less than a month, four of the eight members of Zhu Yuanzhang's family starved to death, leaving him, his second brother, sister-in-law and nephew forced to separate and flee separately...
