Chapter 97: A Comfortable Decade

As the pearl of his father's palm, Taikang has never seen any good things, but the good things in the mouth of the prince's brother are still a little expected. Taikang's misty eyes stared at Zhu Houzhao and asked, "Is it the set of nine links that Brother Prince put away?" She wanted it for a long time, but Brother Prince looked at it very closely.

Zhu Houyan also looked at the imperial brother with wide eyes, he also wanted to ......

Zhu Houzhao didn't even give the third brother a look, and said to his sister as gently as possible: "Ah Rong is still young, I'll give it to you when you grow up." The prince's brother found someone to make a beautiful swing frame for Ah Rong, and it was set up in Kunning Palace, Ah Rong and the queen mother played together, and the queen mother liked it the most, and she wouldn't feel bored, right. ”

The young Princess Taikang couldn't tell whether the prince's brother's swing frame was hers or for the queen mother, but thinking of that cheerful scene, Fang Cai's grief was swept away, and she grabbed the third brother's hand and was about to go back to Kunning Palace.

"Yan'er?" Zhu Houzhao was not so gentle with the imperial brother, "Send Ah Rong back, and you will come to me again." ”

"But Brother Huang, I want to play ...... too...... , Zhu Houwen didn't dare to say this word in front of the imperial brother, playing this word never appeared in the eyes of the imperial brother, Zhu Houyan still nodded, "I know, Yan'er will send Ah Rong back." ”

Taikang took the third brother's hand and waved goodbye to the eldest brother, and left in a jump. There were no sad tears in her big eyes, and after being reprimanded by the prince's brother, she and Zhu Houzhao were both happy to eat it.

Zhu Houzhao turned around and returned to the Wenhua Palace, picked up "The Art of War" and read it seriously, the group of bandits on the Northwest Mongolian border was restless again, and when he grew up, he would definitely clean them up, catch them all, and return them to the Ming Land, and see how they jumped!

Zhang Erzhen announced that several ladies had entered the palace today to gossip and held a small tea party with a smile. Heling's wife is pregnant, and Zhang Luan is going to be a grandfather. Looking at the shy new daughter-in-law of the second grandmother of the Zhang family, Zhang Erzhen thought very evilly, that kid from Heling didn't like people at that time, and he didn't like it anymore. What is it that makes this little couple go from disgusting to happy and harmonious, is this the legendary love and killing?

"Queen, mother, brother said that he had found a carpenter to make a swing frame, did anyone come over to install it?" Zhu Houyan was also looking forward to the things that the imperial brother was looking for someone to make, but he didn't have time to wait in Kunning Palace, if he was well at this time, he could play for a while before leaving.

Zhang Erzhen watched her youngest son lead her little daughter over, beckoning happily, Taikang let go of the third brother's hand and threw herself into the arms of the queen mother, Zhang Erzhen said to the youngest son again: "I haven't come yet, if Yan'er also wants to play, the queen mother will make someone install one in your place." "Zhang Erzhen is an epoch-making enlightened mother, based on the principle of fairness and justice, thinking that it is best to have one of the second son and the third son. Who knew that the third son shook his head and refused, and said seriously: "Ah Rong can play, but Yan'er doesn't play." Brother Huang is looking for me, I'm going to Wenhua Palace, Queen Mother. ”

"Good...... , go, go, come to the queen mother for dinner. Zhang Erzhen looked at the third son with some sympathy, Yan'er, who was targeted by the eldest son, had already become Zhao'er's little follower, Xi'er was not in good health, and more often practiced with Master Wu. Zhao'er is a prince with a strong sense of responsibility, and while he is strict with himself, he is not slack off on his two younger brothers, so both younger brothers are afraid of him. For this reason, Zhang Erzhen discussed with Zhu Youzhu quite worriedly, "Will this affect the relationship between the three brothers?"

Zhu Youzhu smiled and persuaded her: "Xi'er and Yan'er are respectful from the bottom of their hearts, although Zhao'er looks strict, but it is good for the two younger brothers, they are brothers, what do you care." ”

Zhang Erzhen put her heart down and let them toss, in the end, it is the child of the Zhu family, the strong and stubborn in the bones are the same, occasionally quarreling and disagreeing, but after that, it was still harmonious, so several times, Zhang Erzhen had to hug Taikang and muttered: "Ah Rong, fortunately you accompany the queen mother, otherwise the queen mother will be bored to death." Holding Taikang's fleshy body, Zhang Erzhen sighed with satisfaction, her daughter is a close-fitting little padded jacket is indeed true, the ancients did not deceive me.

And Zhu Youzhu became more and more mature and handsome, Zhang Erzhen often watched such an emperor fall into intoxication, Zhu Youzhu doted on the queen drunk under his dragon robe, and the worries brought by the government disappeared.

"The prince is very talented, the prince has already told me, and now that the prince has begun to study the art of war again, I think about it, I still want to take the prince to the court, listen more and watch more, so that I can have more time to accompany you." Zhu Youzhu hugged Zhang Erzhen and stared at her delicate face for a long time.

Zhang Erzhen hesitated, "Zhao'er is still young, but she is only eight years old...... , Won't he be too tired in this way?" "It's just that there is no childhood, the key is that he has to deal with the government at the age of eight, Zhang Erzhen looks at the eldest son sympathetically many times, who knows that the eldest son just glanced at her lightly and did not accept the sympathy of the queen mother.

"I know how to be tired of him. Zhu Youzhu touched the queen's smooth long hair, still feeling guilty in her heart, after so many years, she said that she wanted to take her out of the palace to play. After giving birth to four children in eight years, and now that these four children are getting older, they should also be relaxed.

Zhang Erzhen didn't know Zhu Youji's thoughts, but she was thinking about her mother's love, and she still had to ask Zhao'er in person, if he didn't like it, she couldn't force him.

Prince Zhu Houzhao was naturally very happy, he had a clear understanding of his mission and path, and it was a happy event worth celebrating to be able to get closer to his dream earlier. On the same day, he let his third brother go back to Kunning Palace, and ran to the imperial study to find his father. Zhu Youzhu looked at this little boy with eyebrows and eyes like himself, and said proudly: "Zhao'er, going to the court means that you are already an adult, and you are going to move to the East Palace to live." ”

Zhu Houzhao hesitated for a moment and agreed, "...... Can you let both Xi'er and Yan'er go?"

Zhu Youzhu shook his head with a serious face, "Naturally, you can't, you are the crown prince, and it is a matter of time before you live in the East Palace." ”

"Erchen knows, Erchen goes. Zhu Houzhao nodded, his little face full of determination.

Zhu Youzhu nodded with satisfaction, but a little unbearable, "Zhao'er, you are still young, and my father doesn't want you to put a lot of pressure on yourself......"

"Father, the son is willing, if the son can deal with the government as soon as possible, the father can take the queen mother to relax. The queen mother likes to go out to play, and the sons know it. ”

Zhu Houzhao's words shocked Zhu Youji, and Zhu Youzhu asked in disbelief: ...... So that's why you're studying day and night? Zhao'er, why do you think that?"

Zhu Houzhao was a little awkward and reluctant to answer his father's question, but his father's burning gaze made him dare not speak, "It was the queen mother who heard the ...... when she was talking in her sleep."

"Zhao'er...... How old were you then?"

"Four-year-old ......" When he was four years old, he was still coquettish in the arms of his mother, but he suddenly seemed to be sensible as if he had grown up.

Zhu Youzhu said guiltily: "It's the father who is useless, and I still need you to worry about your mother's ......"

"No," Zhu Houzhao shook his head, "Father is brave and invincible, wise and intelligent, he is a good emperor and a good father. The sons should also be like the father, and the father is a role model for the sons. ”

Zhu Youzhu shook his head, "The person that my father can't stand the most is your mother...... , Zhao'er, thank you for your hard work. ”

Watching his son's little back disappear at the door, Zhu Youzhi had the loving expression of an old father. I picked up the fold and wanted to take a look, there was a pain in my chest, and after enduring it for a long time, a mouthful of blood spurted out, blooming gorgeous poisonous roses, "My body is really useless......" Zhu Youzhu muttered, gently wiped away the blood stains on the fold, the handwriting stained by the blood stains was blurred, and he couldn't see what the adult wanted to say, Zhu Youzhu didn't care about the blood donation at the corner of his lips, he just stared at the fold for a long time, his eyes gradually dissipated, the pain made him confused, the corners of his forehead broke out in cold sweat, and he endured the waves of heat and cold in his body......

Zhang Erzhen accompanied Taikang to finish swinging, and Zhu Houzhao came. Zhang Erzhen pulled the prince with a motherly face, and touched his face lovingly, "Zhao'er, what do you think about your father's desire for you to go to the court? If you don't want to, just tell the queen mother, and the queen mother will say it for you." ”

Zhu Houzhao endured the hand of the queen mother without the Buddha, and smiled brightly, "The queen mother, the sons are very willing, the master said that the sons are talented, and those are not difficult for the sons." ”

Zhang Erzhen can't imagine that an eight-year-old child can understand what Jiangshan Sheji is, this son of hers is too precocious. Zhang Erzhen still held Zhu Houzhao's hand a little reluctantly, "Zhao'er, you spend less and less time with your mother." ”

"The sons come to eat with the queen mother every three days, and come to say hello every day, the queen mother, isn't the son and son able to see you every day. Zhu Houzhao was very helpless, he wanted to repeat the same words a few times every few days, he knew that the queen mother was boring in this palace, and he had tried his best to find time to satisfy the queen mother's love.

Zhang Erzhen just didn't want her eight-year-old son to suffer, but since he enjoyed it...... , alas, she can only sigh, she is not a drag on him, "The queen mother knows that Zhao'er is a good prince, and the queen mother ordered the imperial dining room to make your favorite willow wing white fungus glutinous, stay and eat." ”

Zhu Houzhao agreed, and went out to find Taikang again, to ask her if she liked this swing frame......

The rest of Zhang Erzhen is proud and sad, I really want to punch myself, I don't know how blessed I am, my son is so good, what kind of heart do I have to. Zhao'er inherited all the excellent genes of the Zhu family, looks like a smart personality, and stands out in everything; Xi'er was born like a kitten, and when she grows up to four years old, she likes to stroke her hands and feet every day, and gradually has some appearance; Yan'er is the most honest, Taikang is the most naughty, her children, Zhang Erzhen thinks narcissistically, they are all dragons and phoenixes among people, she can also give birth to such an excellent child, genes are really a good thing.

Zhang Erzhen sighed with satisfaction, what else is there to worry about. For so many years, Zhu Youzhu has no intention of expanding the harem at all, she is the largest in the entire harem, she said that if she goes to the east, no one will go to the west. After the Empress Dowager is gone, the Empress Dowager basically does not go out, the only requirement is that the four children have to go to Shoukang Palace every three days to ask for peace, the Empress Dowager likes these children, and she can't wait to hold them all in her arms.

It's not a good day.
