Chapter 167: Who Gave You the Courage?
A sense of vinegar wafted through the hall.
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted twice, and glared at the good grandson who took advantage of him with some dissatisfaction, but still showed hesitation.
He beckoned: "Brother Chun, hurry up, there is also Caiyun, this girl." It seems that we are seeing you for the first time, it is really generous, fortunately it is not like your father's reckless man in the army, with a face full of meat, if it weren't for the eldest sister of our family who was in charge back then, your father designated that he would not be able to marry your mother. ”
It's all a joke.
But Mu Caiyun's timidity and nervousness when he returned to Beijing for the first time to enter the palace were swept away, and his face was even more surging with an expression that wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.
Mu Chun was not surprised, and looked up at Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Old man, if you don't agree, the minister won't be able to go back to Yunnan this time, and the minister won't be able to kill the enemy for the old man in the south......"
Zhu Yunxi was still confused, and saw that Mu Chun was reluctant to get up, so he had to step forward and pull Mu Chun: "Brother Chun, I just came back, trek all the way, hurry up and go in and sit down to rest, there is time to talk about things when I turn back." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Zhu Yunxi silently again.
Then he pretended to glare and said, "Brother Chun, if you don't get up again, we will go back and leave you in Yingtian." ”
"...... too?"
Mu Chun raised his eyebrows, his heart finally relaxed, his face was even tighter with joy, and he didn't need Zhu Yunxi to pull it, so he stood up straight after rubbing.
This suddenly, but it almost brought Zhu Yunxi down.
Mu Chun stretched out his hand to pull his sister Mu Caiyun up.
The brother and sister bowed down again to make a blessing ceremony.
Mu Chun opened his mouth and said: "Thank you, my sister can get into the eyes of the old man and stay in the East Palace to do things." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned, he hadn't agreed to this matter yet.
Zhu Biao on the side was already crying and laughing, and beckoned: "Let's all go over and sit down, Brother Chun must be in a hurry all the way, stop quickly." The old man had just ordered the imperial chef to cook the soup, and it would be delivered in a few moments. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang also nodded in agreement.
Mu Chun was completely relaxed at this time.
Mu Caiyun, who was following him, was extremely discerning, and stepped forward to hold the armrest of the prince's wheelchair under the seat.
This time, Zhu Biao was also slightly stunned, and then nodded with a chuckle.
After a few people did this, they all entered the side hall.
Zhu Yuanzhang poured a cup of tea into his stomach, and then looked at Mu Caiyun who pushed the prince into the side hall and returned to the eldest brother with a faint gaze.
"Do you really want to leave the Caiyun girl in Yingtian?"
Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxi, who was standing on the side, who was obviously an insider, but seemed to be an outsider, quietly looked at Mu Caiyun, who had lowered his head and was shy.
Mu Chun nodded and glanced at Zhu Yunxi, who was the same age as his sister.
Mu Chun and Mu Caiyun knelt down again.
Then, Mu Chun looked at Zhu Yuanzhang: "Back to the old man's words, my father said that he has not been able to fulfill his filial piety by your old side all these years, and he can't assist Zuo Sheji by the prince's side." The courtiers and others also led the troops in the army, and sat in the southwest for my Ming Dynasty.
But you always have the grace of nurturing your father, and he can't do his filial piety, so he has to send his sister to Yingtian, which can be regarded as doing some filial piety.
If the old man is in his eyes, the prince agrees, the emperor and grandson do not give up, and the sister can be by the side of the emperor and grandson in the future, adding a few important emperors and grandchildren to the old man, it will be the best. ”
Zhu Yunxi looked at Mu Caiyun in front of him with dripping eyes, and he was already red from his cheeks to the roots of his ears.
The little girl's face was crimson, under the reflection of the light, crystal clear, the puff was like a peach in the spring, and sweet water could drip out with a slight pinch.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he sighed in his heart.
After all, Ying'er has never forgotten his old man, he sat on the border all year round for himself as an old man in the southwest, commanding troops to kill the enemy, and guarding the stability of the southwest corner, but it was difficult to fulfill his filial piety by his side.
In this way, there is this one, and let his daughter go to the palace to fulfill his filial piety for him.
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed for a while.
The crown prince Zhu Biao was on the side, his eyes kept watching, and then he looked at Mu Chun with some apologies: "Brother Chun." ”
"Hey." Mu Chun immediately responded: "What does the prince command?" ”
Zhu Biao waved his hand, shook his head and said, "Big brother may not know that not long ago, the old man just made a marriage agreement with the eldest granddaughter of the Tang family of the Tang family in the Xinguo Mansion for Yun Xi, a bastard boy. ”
As he spoke, Zhu Biao shook his head again and sighed.
From the bottom of his heart, he hoped that his bastard boy could marry the daughter of Brother Mu's family.
It's just that the Mu family wants to guard the southwest, and if the DPRK and China balance the military, they can only use the Tang family.
Zhu Yuanzhang also felt sorry for a while at this time.
He is the emperor, there is no half possibility, he has to marry the courtier's family in the future, and he goes back and says that this family business does not count.
Moreover, marrying the Tang family, the son of the Tang family returning to Beijing to serve as the governor's mansion, and joining the forbidden army guard, these are all arrangements he has set a long time ago.
He can't let the daughter of the Ying'er family be small, right?
"Old man, before the minister arrived in Zhili, he heard that the emperor's grandson and the Xinguo Mansion were married. At that time, the minister quickly asked people to go back to Yunnan to deliver the letter, and the father replied that as long as the old man nodded and agreed, it would be okay to let his sister be a side concubine by the emperor's grandson in the future. ”
Speaking of this, Mu Chun puffed up his chest.
"Father said that the Mu family is not the kind of climbing family, although the Mu family can no longer be cheeky with the surname of the heavenly family, but the Mu family will always remember that it was the old man's nurturing grace back then, and always remember that the Mu family had the surname Zhu first, and then the surname Mu."
"My sister entered the palace just for the filial piety of the whole Mu family, and she never thought about it!"
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was already moved.
Your own good Ying'er!
And at this time.
Mu Caiyun, who had never spoken, was shocked, and his voice opened his lips like a yellow warbler.
"Your Majesty, my father has been getting worse and worse recently, this time I heard that Your Majesty is sick, the prince is seriously ill, and he has been sick in bed for many days, fortunately I know that Your Majesty and the prince are fine, and I gradually have some spirit.
The father cannot serve by His Majesty's side, and the courtiers are willing to do their filial piety in the palace on behalf of their father. ”
Zhu Biao's eyes widened suddenly, and he said urgently: "Big brother is sick?" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang even stepped forward to Mu Chun's eyes, and said with a shocked face: "How is Ying'er?" He was a great general in the battle at that time, and the enemy's sword could not hurt him in the slightest, so why did he get sick, and what is it now? Doctor! Doctor! Hurry up and call someone from the Tai Hospital! ”
"The Point Guard Is Here"
In the end, Zhu Yuanzhang was already shouting loudly outside.
Mu Chun was so excited that he hurriedly exited: "Fortunately, the old man is sheltered, before the courtier entered Beijing, the family sent someone to spread the word, and my father was already able to walk around in Beijing." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang's heart was relieved, but his face was still nervous.
Wait until the imperial doctors who will take turns waiting in the palace every day to come over.
Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang cross his waist and wave his hand: "Go!" Tell the hospital envoy that the Tai Hospital will send someone to Yunnan today, to Xipinghou's mansion, and will stay by Xipinghou's side in the future, and he must not let his body have any more problems! ”
The imperial doctors didn't know what happened to the Marquis of Xiping, who was far away in Yunnan, but they all knew that the Marquis of Xiping was the emperor's righteous son, and he was the eldest brother of the prince who was very respected by the prince with His Majesty's surname.
Several people hurriedly sent people out of the palace and went to the Tai Hospital to report the incident.
After this arrangement, Zhu Yuanzhang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhu Yunxi, who had been standing aside, stepped forward cautiously and supported Zhu Yuanzhang: "Grandpa don't worry, uncle has also experienced countless winds and waves over the years, and my ancestors will definitely protect him from accidents." Thinking about it this time, my uncle also heard that you and your father were sick, so he fell ill. Now that you two are in good health, your uncle will be fine. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath and glared at Zhu Yunxi sideways.
It wasn't until he was helped by Zhu Yunxi to sit down that he looked at Mu Caiyun again, who lowered his eyebrows and was obedient.
"She is a good girl, Ying'er has been a good housekeeper all these years."
"Father, this is the eldest brother's request?" Zhu Biao asked, then looked at Mu Chun and Mu Caiyun, and said with a smile: "The old man agreed, you guys don't hurry up." ”
Mu Chun got Zhu Yuanzhang's consent, and helped Mu Caiyun to stand up again with a smile on his face.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the Mu family brothers and sisters in front of him, and suddenly became angry in his heart, and turned his head to glare at Zhu Yunxi again.
Zhu Yunxi, who was glared at inexplicably, was dazed.
I didn't do anything.
Zhu Yuanzhang said indignantly: "It's you kid who picks up cheap everywhere!" Go back and let Caiyun girl go to the East Palace, if you stay slow for half a minute, let's make you look good! ”
Zhu Yunxi had to smile bitterly and nodded in agreement.
Subsequently, the imperial chef also brought soup and other food.
Zhu Yuanzhang kept smiling and chanting, as if he was looking at Mu Caiyun, who had become his granddaughter-in-law, and pulled Mu Chun to talk about Mu Ying's affairs in Yunnan.
Zhu Biao and Zhu Yunxi, the two fathers and sons, could only accompany them on the side, echoing from time to time.
It wasn't until the sky was dark that Zhu Yuanzhang arranged for Mu Chun and Mu Caiyun to live in the East Palace.
……
The more days.
Yingtian City became more and more lively.
One day.
As soon as the sky was bright, the city was already filled with the sound of firecrackers.
The people in the new clothes at the bottom of the box poured out of their homes and merged into the streets full of stalls and juggling.
A prosperous scene.
And in the imperial city, it is even more colorful, and it is a festive atmosphere.
Today is the longevity festival of Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty.
Although the DPRK has explicitly decreed that only officials in Beijing are allowed to participate in this year's Wanshou Festival, the vassal kings of the clan are not allowed to return to Beijing, and even the officials of the direct subordinates are not allowed to leave the state capital and enter Beijing without permission to congratulate.
But the palace is still overcrowded today.
The feast begins at noon, and the feast of the monarchs and ministers will probably last until the evening.
Later, there were congratulatory programs such as opera troupes in the palace.
Later, there was also a special congratulatory gift from the imperial grandson.
For a while, the audience was full of harmony.
However, in the front of the three major halls in the palace, it is also the most magnificent imperial palace.
The atmosphere was not as lively as it was outside.
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the throne, had a cold face at the moment.
The crown prince and the imperial grandson served on the steps below him.
The officials of the various departments and departments in the palace, the officials of the Yamen Hall, and the officials of the three grades or more of the Beijing officials, are divided into civil and military forces on both sides of the palace.
And on the gold brick in the middle of the main hall, groups of envoys from various countries took turns to congratulate.
Until this moment, it was two groups of Japanese envoys who came out to congratulate at the same time.
"Bold!"
"It's for your guts, dare to repeatedly annoy my Daming, kill my Daming people, and take my Daming money and food!"
"I really thought that I had a million army of the Ming Dynasty, and I couldn't cross the sea, and I waited for Ping'er!"
In the court, the three members of the Heavenly Family all had cold faces.
Zhu Yunxi, the imperial grandson, stood upright, his eyes showed anger, and he waved his hand and pointed angrily at the envoys of the Japanese kingdom in front of him, Yoshinoji Ma and Ashikaga Meidie.
The crown prince sat in a wheelchair, his face was like frost, and swept over the civil and military officials present.
The emperor sitting on the throne with a solemn look in his eyes, like a celestial dragon containing endless anger, is ready to tilt down the boundless anger at any time.
