Chapter 328: Tea is hot and cold
() From watching the other party start to prepare, until the tea was served, Zhu Yunwen's eyes never left Zhu Di. For some reason, he just felt that there was something very attractive about his fourth uncle, as if it was some kind of warm quality that people especially wanted to approach.
looked at his busy but methodical figure, and then delivered the brewed tea to himself. And he has long been accustomed to being busy taking care of his relatives around him, and today he was finally taken care of by his relatives, Zhu Yunwen has an indescribable feeling, I really hope that the fourth uncle can always stay by his side like this.
However, this eager feeling was dispelled by the words of the fourth uncle when he brought the tea.
It sounded very respectful, but behind the respect was a very cold sentence, this kind of cold respect was not what he wanted, what he Zhu Yunwen wanted was the kind of warm casualness of the fourth uncle.
After drinking the tea, Zhu Di put away the tea set again, then turned back and asked,
"Father, grandson, how does the tea taste? Can you still enter the entrance? ”
Zhu Di is now learning to be obedient, and it seems that his father asked him to come here so that he could get along with Zhu Yunwen for a while longer, so as to get used to the future new monarch. So, why don't you just be respectful in everything, and let the old man look at the clear appearance of the monarch and the minister.
In addition, if there is really the possibility that Master Daoyan and the second brother King Qin said, the father and the emperor set up the emperor's grandson just to stabilize the hearts of the hundred officials in the court, and then observe the princes. And as an important guard in an important town in the north, he can't say that he will withdraw and become the crown prince, like now, in the name of studying, he will be transferred back to the capital to test in the palace, and the border will gradually cultivate the king of Qi and the king of Ning, who can say that this is not another strategy of his old man?
Therefore, the master is right, as long as you are careful not to do superfluous things, be careful everywhere, and don't make your father angry.
Hearing him ask, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said,
"The taste is still the same, it's still so mellow, what about the imperial grandson?"
"Oh?"
Zhu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, and then said,
"Yes, the fourth uncle's tea is indeed very fragrant, and the grandson also feels a very familiar taste."
"Yes, it's probably because I learned my tea art from my eldest brother."
Although this is a true sentence, the important thing is that it was used by Zhu Di just right, so that Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Yunwen, the ancestors and grandsons, sounded and felt very useful.
The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang let Zhu Di enter the palace was because he found that the imperial grandson's impression of his uncles was almost relatively weak, but he was only sensitive to the reaction of the fourth uncle, King Yan. Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know that the late prince Zhu Biao had ceremoniously introduced and entrusted his son to his fourth brother Zhu Di, which is why this child paid so much attention to the fourth uncle, but he was guessing if it was because he heard too many rumors about King Yan in the palace that he was so curious about the fourth uncle, so it was better to let the two of them get along well for a while and get familiar with each other.
Family affection is a very important bond -
This is Zhu Yuanzhang's idea. In the end, few of the best friends can really be relied on, only relatives can really be relied on. He hoped that his eldest grandson and his most outstanding son would establish a relationship of mutual trust and mutual support based on blood.
So when he heard Zhu Di mention Zhu Biao, it immediately warmed the heart of Zhu Yuanzhang, the old man, and he felt that until now, his fourth son still misses his brother so much, and sure enough, he still misses family affection very much.
And Zhu Yunwen was even warmer by this sentence, and his heart almost melted, even the fourth uncle's eyes when he mentioned his father looked so warm and loving, if this teenage child hadn't been in the way of his identity and environment, I am afraid that he would have thrown himself into the arms of the fourth uncle, and the coldness he felt just now disappeared.
"Then, how about the tea that the three of us drink in the future will be handed over to you to cook?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him with a smile in his eyes.
Zhu Di bowed obediently and said,
"Of course Erchen is willing, just leave it to Erchen."
After reading a book in the imperial study for an afternoon, Zhu Di felt that he had never been so tired or bored. can be regarded as the time to be free, Zhu Yuanzhang instructed the chamberlain to arrange a nearby residence for him and allowed him to rest.
At this time, Zheng He also rushed back from Xu's Mansion, and when he saw his tired face, he couldn't help but smile,
"How's it going, aren't you tired from reading?"
"The point is that it's too stuffy, there are no books I like to read."
Zhu Di glanced at him and smiled,
"By the way, did you go back to Xu Mansion and tell them well, Jing'er didn't mess around, right?"
"Fourth Master Xu is just a matter of saying it, and Young Master Jing'er,"
Zheng He paused when he said this,
"He's not messing around, but he's acting a little too obedient, and I'm starting to worry if the kid is doing something again."
"That's really not accurate,"
Zhu Di also began to worry,
"Didn't he ask you anything more?"
"He only asked me why the 'emperor's grandfather' wanted to keep the fourth uncle in the palace."
Zheng He said with a smile.
Zhu Di hurriedly asked,
"And how did you answer?"
"I said, the emperor is the father of the fourth master, and there is nothing wrong with the father leaving his son at home for a while."
Zheng He replied.
Zhu Di nodded with satisfaction and asked,
"And then?"
"Then he said something with some complaints, 'But the emperor's grandfather's house is also too big,'"
Speaking of this, Zheng He couldn't help but want to laugh again,
"I'll tell him, don't make trouble, otherwise it's you, the fourth master, who will be responsible."
"Uh-huh, yes,"
Zhu Di nodded and smiled,
"That kid is very smart, and should be able to understand the severity."
While the two were talking, the Lord came to the dwelling that had been arranged.
Since leaving Beijing to become a vassal domain, I haven't lived in the palace for more than ten years, and I always feel that I am not so used to it, but fortunately, there is Zheng He waiting by my side.
At dinner, four little eunuchs brought dinner with food boxes. Zheng He set the table with them, and put the food in front of him the same, Zhu Di beckoned him to eat together, and Zheng He sat down to eat with him.
The four little eunuchs stood aside, looking at his master and servant, all with a look of novelty.
Zhu Di looked at them a little funny, and asked,
"How many years have you all been in the palace?"
"Back to Your Highness, the four of us entered the palace at the same time, and it has been three years."
A bolder little eunuch replied.
Zhu Di looked at them again and saw that they were only sixteen or seventeen years old, and couldn't help but ask again with some pity in his heart,
"You're usually tired from work, aren't you?"
