Daming: My grandfather is Emperor Hongwu!

Chapter 9
Throughout the history books, in the past dynasties, it is difficult for the family of the emperor to have family happiness.

The hero of the founding of the country, the night scene is bleak.Either sons kill each other, or father and son kill each other, you can see it everywhere in history books.

At this moment, Zhu Yunxi looked at the old man and old lady bickering in front of him, and suddenly a word popped up in his heart, happiness!
What is happiness?Happiness is like having a family.

Regardless of whether you are the emperor or the prince, in the heart of the old lady, you are my husband and son.One can be used for injury and the other for pain.

What Zhu Yunxi didn't know was that his little butterfly had actually changed history.

In the original time and space, after he, the eldest grandson of Ming Dynasty, died, Empress Ma fell ill due to grief, and passed away within a few short months.

After the death of Empress Ma, Mu Ying, the adopted son of the Zhu family who was leading the army in Yunnan, vomited three liters of blood and died young because of the sudden news of the bad news.

Zhu Yuanzhang, on the other hand, became more irritable after losing his beloved wife.In his later years, no one could persuade him and enlighten him, so that he released the devil in his heart, slaughtered the heroes, and left him with eternal infamy!

"Brother Ying, is the box baked by grandma delicious?" A meal will be finished in a blink of an eye.Empress Ma looked at Zhu Xiongying and said lovingly.

Zhu Xiongying held the half-eaten box in his hand, "Grandmother, grandson can't eat anymore!"

The taste of the box is good, he has eaten several in a row, and his stomach is a little bloated.

"Don't eat it if you can't eat it, don't hold on!" Empress Ma laughed, "Put down the box and let Jia Gui take you to play for a while to digest!"

"Hey!" Zhu Yingxiong agreed, and put half of the box in his hand on the porcelain plate containing the bones and vegetable dregs.

"Wait a minute!" Zhu Biao said with a straight face, "Eat the remaining half! Don't spoil the food!" After a pause, he continued, "This is the people's fat and people's anointing, how can you allow you to be so spoiled ?”

He and the Zhu family are the most honorable, powerful and richest people in the world.

But every meal, the two of them ate cleanly, and there was not even half a grain of rice left in the bowl.

"You let him eat when he can't eat anymore, what if you can't hold it?" Seeing her son scolding her grandson, Empress Ma was not happy.

Zhu Yuanzhang also said, "That's right, there's only half a box left, and you can see that you're still trained!"

Zhu Biao looked at the two elders and said with a wry smile, "Father, Queen Mother, don't spoil Brother Ying too much!"

"What are you talking about?" Empress Ma said displeased, "Can't I pamper my own grandson?"

Zhu Yuanzhang also said, "Our eldest grandson is the eldest grandson of us and your mother, what's wrong with you?"

Zhu Biao smiled wryly again, "Back then, I didn't see you being so beloved!"

"It's different!" Zhu Yuanzhang took his last sip of wine, "A filial son is born under the stick!"

"Tomorrow he will be disobedient, and I will learn from you, and a filial son will be born under the stick!" Zhu Biao laughed.

"How dare you!" the old man and the old lady said in unison, raising their eyebrows.

In fact, the old couple doted on Zhu Xiongying.

In their eyes, everything this grandson does is good and justified.

If other princes and grandchildren dared to waste food in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, the old man would directly slap him with a big ear.Moreover, although there are many dragon sons and grandsons in the Zhu family.Not everyone is qualified to eat at the same table with the old couple.

"Father is right!" Zhu Xiongying said suddenly, "There is a poem that says that when we hoe the crops at noon, the sweat drips down the soil. Before eating, Grandpa Huang also said that farmers are hard. Even a grain of rice and a grain of wheat , must go through a hundred days of growth and careful care before it can become a delicacy on the table."

"God bestows all things on people. Think about the hard-won things and love them dearly. My grandson really shouldn't waste food at will!"

"Ah, look at our brother Ying, he can read poetry!" Empress Ma laughed.

Zhu Yuanzhang also laughed loudly, "It's more than just being able to read, it's a matter of eloquence!"

Zhu Biao looked at his son with a very pleased expression.

"You really can't eat it anymore?" Zhu Biao said gently, "Since you can't eat it anymore, why don't you give it to your servant!"

Zhu Xiongying looked around and said in a low voice, "How can the emperor's mother make it for his sons and ministers for others!"

"That's the reason, but if you throw it away, won't you let down your grandmother's caring heart?" Zhu Biao said with a smile, "Besides, if they can eat the delicious food made by your imperial grandmother, it will take several lifetimes of cultivation. Blessing, the so-called kindness comes from above, and I will be even more grateful to you!"

No wonder he is the crown prince with the most stable status in the past and present, he can show the emperor's mind at every meal, that's amazing!

Zhu Xiongying thought about it, and waved to Jia Gui who was in the distance, "Come here!"

"Your maidservant is here!" Jia Gui took small steps, stepped forward quickly, knelt down and said, "What orders does Your Highness have?"

Zhu Xiongying held half a box, "You are rewarded, eat it!"

Jia Gui was taken aback for a moment, and after his face was full of surprise, he was very moved, took two or three mouthfuls of food, and burst into tears.

"People like slaves and pigs, who can eat the rewards from His Highness and the meals cooked by the empress, even if they die now, it is worth it!"

In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, eunuchs were already a force that could not be ignored in the imperial court.

But at the beginning of the founding of the country, eunuchs were as humble as dogs.Feeling that there were many eunuchs intervening in politics in the past dynasties, Zhu Yuanzhang personally ordered and carved it on the stone tablet, eunuchs are not allowed to read and write, and eunuchs must be ten steps away from the monarch and his ministers when discussing military and state affairs.

After a meal, it was getting late.

Zhu Xiongying stayed in Kunning Palace, where he lived since childhood.Zhu Yuanzhang had to go back to Wuying Hall to handle government affairs, while Prince Zhu Biao returned to the East Palace.

The Palace of Daming, also known as the Forbidden City.Because it is facing the Zijin Mountain outside the city.The place in Beijing in the later generations is just a copy of the Ming Dynasty Imperial City at this time.

The imperial city faces south from the north, and the brackets and cornices are quite different from the Forbidden City of later generations.In the Forbidden City of later generations, the outer court and the inner court are mostly separated by red walls, and the palace is full of long and deep corridors.

At this time, in the Forbidden City of Ming Dynasty, the corridors formed by the pillars connecting the inside and outside, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant in summer, and the snow scene is peaceful in winter.Savor it carefully, it is so beautiful.

The construction of the entire imperial city is also fully in line with the traditional Han family thinking, with orderly parents and children.The outer court has three main halls, the Fengtian Hall, the Huagai Hall, and the Jinshen Hall.Then on the east and west sides, there are Wenhua Hall and Wuying Hall respectively.Then there are Qianqing Palace, Kunning Palace, and Spring Harmony Palace.

Zhu Biao took his entourage out of Kunning Palace and returned to the Prince's East Palace residence, Chunhe Palace.

As soon as he entered the hall, he saw a plain-clothed woman leading a young child over, and said in a salute, "My concubine sees Your Highness!"

The toddler bowed respectfully like an adult, "My son, I have seen my father!"

This woman is the current Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace, Lu family.And that child is Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Biao's second son.

Zhu Biao's original wife is the daughter of Chang Yuchun, the founding king of Wuzhong County in the Ming Dynasty. She grew up with him as a childhood sweetheart.Empress Ma loves her as her own daughter because she has been in the Zhu family since she was a child.

But later, after giving birth to Zhu Yunxi, Zhu Biao's third son, he collapsed and died.

Therefore, Lu Shi, the side concubine of the East Palace, was able to straighten her up.

Compared with the Chang family, Lu's family background is more favored by those civil servants and scholar-bureaucrats.Because the three generations of her family, Song, Yuan and Qing were all high-ranking officials.His ancestor was Lu Wenhuan, a well-known minister of the Southern Song Dynasty.After the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, high-ranking officials and generous salary, in the generation of Lu's father, also achieved such important official positions as Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

However, if you want to talk about it in detail, the identities of Mrs. Lu and Zhu Yunwen are a bit embarrassing.

First of all, the Lu family is the side concubine Fuzheng, but the second wife.It can't be compared with the Chang family who was brought in from the Zhonghua Gate, wearing a red dress, the prince worshiped the ancestors before marriage, and was canonized by the emperor after marriage.

Furthermore, although her mother's family was a high-ranking official, they were civil servants.As for the Chang family, who was born in the Xungui group of Huaixi warriors, they are very popular among the founding heroes.

Even though Chang Yuchun had passed away, the Chang family's appeal in the army was still strong.

And Zhu Yunqi was even more embarrassing, because he could not be regarded as the real second son, strictly speaking, he could only be the eldest son.
