Daming: You are really my eldest son

Chapter 123 The standard of the world, you have to be careful

A miscellaneous newspaper, I don't know how many people's nerves were provoked.But since it was all within Zhu Ji's expectation, naturally it wouldn't cause much disturbance in the heart of the prince who had initially completed his conception.

September [-]th was approaching in a blink of an eye, and early in the morning Zhu Ji rushed to the palace with his specially customized gift.

Passing through the deserted Meridian Gate, bypassing the desolate Fengtian Hall, when Zhu Ji stepped into the Qianqing Palace, he suddenly felt that all the excitement and warmth in the world had gathered here.

This may be the first time Zhu Ji saw his family so tidy since the day he recognized his ancestor as returning to his clan.

Zhu Yuanzhang was teasing Zhu Gui, who was less than three months old, ignoring the three little guys who were watching him eagerly.

Zhu Biao naturally accompanied Empress Ma, but Chang's figure was nowhere to be seen.

Several brothers whose psychological shadow was drawn out by Zhu Yuanzhang with the soles of their shoes were gathering together in the blind spot of Zhu Yuanzhang's perspective, laughing and muttering something. According to Zhu Ji's intention, they were ordered not to call for another three days, and wanted to go to the house to expose the tiles.

But Zhu Yu and Zhu Zi who were younger were held in the arms of their respective mothers and concubines, and they didn't dare to let them be free for a moment.

Seeing Zhu Ji walking in with a long box in his arms, several little princes who couldn't hold back any longer ran to Zhu Ji's side one after another. After Zhu Ji greeted Zhu Yuanzhang, Queen Ma and several concubines, they surrounded him. into a ball.

"Brother, it's been a while since you came to see us? Daddy beat me again the day before yesterday and called me a little bastard."

Zhu Ji, who has always had a good impression of Zhu Ji, and once regarded Zhu Ji as his savior, took the lead in quietly suing his elder brother about his father's tricks.

Touching the little head covered by the melon rind cap, Zhu Ji gave Zhu Yuanzhang a meaningful look at Zhu Yuanzhang, who continued to tease the baby, and then whispered into Zhu Yu's ear and said with a smile:

"In the future, if he wants to call you a little bastard, just tell him that dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, and sons of mice can make holes."

Seeing Zhu Yu nodding desperately, Zhu Ji touched his head again, and then listened to the other brothers expressing their thoughts.

"Brother, we haven't gone out for quite a while, tell dad some other day and let us play at your house."

Zhu Yan, who had just gotten together to discuss something, proposed it with anticipation, and the surrounding princes nodded in response.

During this period of time, being locked up in the palace was too suffocating, especially as the maids and eunuchs around him continued to exaggerate what Zhu Ji had done, these princes' desire for the outside world became even stronger.

Seeing the same gazes from all the princes, Zhu Ji felt a little guilty.

Rao he angrily reprimanded all civil and military officials for raising the clan as pigs, but he had no other practical actions other than confrontation.

In the final analysis, there is still a lot of alienation from the family in the deepest part of my heart.

His eyes gradually softened, Zhu Ji scanned all the faces full of longing, and then nodded slightly in agreement.

"It's the elder brother's negligence. Starting tomorrow, I will come to the palace to pick you up for a walk every half a month."

Amidst the cheers of a group of younger brothers, Zhu Ji walked up to Zhu Yuanzhang first.

"Father, you won't believe the words of longevity than Nanshan, even if I say it out of my mouth. I wish you all your dreams come true in your lifetime. .”

Lifespan is a unique secret between the father and son, and Zhu Yuanzhang certainly understood what his eldest son meant.

Cheerfully sent the baby in her arms into the hands of Concubine Guo Hui, and in the surprised eyes of the concubines who didn't know much about Zhu Ji at all, took the box presented by Zhu Ji with both hands with a bright smile:

"We don't want to live a hundred years or anything, as long as you have the following sentence, it will be enough. Come on, let's take a look at what good things our eldest son gave us."

Compared with Zhu Ji's instructions, the gift in his hand made Zhu Yuanzhang look forward to it even more.

But the bamboo Ruyi Tickle Scratch quietly lying in the box told him silently that sometimes the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

The scratching work is pretty good, the edges and corners are polished extremely smooth, there is a hollowed-out Shou character at the end, the top of the scratching comb is also in the shape of Ganoderma lucidum, and the handle is engraved with fretwork from top to bottom, in terms of exquisiteness, It is only half a chip worse than the craftsmanship of the imperial prison in the palace.

However, no matter how beautiful it is, it is just a tickle.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, he hoped that Zhu Ji would give him the news of the blessings of the whole country like Shi Jianyinshan, or reveal a secret about Ming Guozuo.

Who wants your itch to be scratched.

"That's it?"

Looking at Zhu Ji with a pitiful and helpless gaze, Lord Guorui just wanted to put the box back, and let the big boy disappear before his eyes.

Hearing that Zhu Yuanzhang was so disappointed, Zhu Ji couldn't help it.

"That's not enough. I spent a lot of money to make this custom-made, and I designed the style myself. You already have the world, so where can I find a gift that can satisfy you.

My dear father, you have to know that sending goose feathers from thousands of miles away means more affection than gifts.Do you think this is an ordinary tickle, no, this is a tickle full of your eldest son's heart, it is filial piety, it is family affection, it is concern..."

Rubbish nonsense about alleged sales promotion is not enough, Zhu Ji even pulled the flag, elevating a small gift to the height of Daming Foundation:
"Besides, if you, as the emperor, still accept those rare and rare things, the officials below will have more confidence in accepting gifts and accepting bribes.

Old man, are you willing to be the moth that ate the foundation of Ming Dynasty first? "

Feeling that all the concubines around him were dumbfounded, Zhu Yuanzhang had to cough lightly, put the box away and put it on the table, and then rolled his eyes at Zhu Ji angrily.

"We knew that the truth is on your bastard's mouth. But when did we say that we would ask you to prepare a gift?"

When did you say that?

I really haven't said it.

Zhu Ji opened his mouth, but he still had nothing to say.

Although he didn't receive the gift he wanted, Zhu Yuanzhang was only slightly disappointed after all, and then put on a smiling face again.

"We're just telling you, don't be late for the family dinner. But for the sake of your tickling, we'll accept it."

Looking at Zhu Ji, who was run on but did not respond to him as usual, Zhu Yuanzhang felt somewhat complacent.After all, this smooth donkey has lost a little bit of wildness under his own gradual taming.

Signaling Zhu Ji to sit beside him, Zhu Yuanzhang put his hand on Zhu Ji's arm.

This slightly intimate gesture made Zhu Ji feel a little uncomfortable, but he still didn't push away Zhu Yuanzhang's rough hand.

"I read the miscellaneous newspaper you wrote. Although the article is not very well written, it is very insightful. We have decided to start reforming Yushitai after the turmoil between you and Hu Weiyong and the others subsides.

The criterion of the world is imminent, and we have to be cautious. "
