Chapter 67: The rebels of the old Zhu family
Prince's Mansion Mourning Hall.
Even if Lao Zhu emptied the ice cubes in the cellar, he could only suppress the heat of the dog days, but he couldn't suppress the anger of the feudal king.
Zhu Shuang, the king of Qin, sat on the ground with a golden knife, and raised words to the royal brother and nephew in front of him, scolded Fang Xuan, and complained that Lao Zhu was on the head.
"I'm telling you, it's useless for you to kneel down tomorrow morning, the old man is obviously angry with us!"
"Why is the third waste tired and sick on the road, but we have to blame!"
"And you!"
"Zhu Hu, weren't you hungry just now, do you think someone cares about you?"
"According to me, if you have a little heart, you should quickly ask someone to tell your family, let them send a set of gifts, and send some food mats, and wait for the old man to think of you stepmothers, maybe it's the year of the monkey!"
King Qin did not inherit any of Lao Zhu's brains, but inherited his mouth damage by ten percent.
The prince in the mourning hall was already kneeling impatiently, but now when he heard King Qin's provocation, someone immediately wavered.
The first to sit down was Zhu Zhen, and then he befriended Zhu Zhen, the king of Chu.
These two goods are more careful, and this time they entered Beijing, and they didn't leave when they walked to the Jiming Station, and then squatted in the post station to listen to the news, for fear that their father would take the two of them under the knife.
It wasn't until Zhu Li, Zhu Shuang, and Zhu Di entered Beijing one after another that the two inquired about the three brothers and had no accidents, so they rushed to Beijing again.
Now seeing that Zhu Shuang, the second child, took the lead, the two of them also sat down.
However, these two people were not sitting steadily, for fear that they would be killed as chickens by their father, and they planned to pull a few people into the water.
When the time comes, the law will not blame the public, even if the father is angry, he can't do anything to them!
"Don't be stupid and kneeling, didn't you listen to what the second brother just said, we were all raised by our stepmothers, and the old man didn't care about us at all!"
With these two people as examples, others couldn't help but waver, especially Zhu Zhaoxuan, the king of Lu, who was not only the youngest among the vassal kings, but also pitiful.
His father Zhu Tan died early, he succeeded to the throne at the age of three, and he is only six years old this year.
This time I went to Beijing for the funeral, and I still took the seventh uncle Zhu Rong's hitchhike, even if he entered the palace to kneel, he also made an exception to bring a nurse with him.
Therefore, when he saw the three uncles sitting on the ground, his small body, which was already overwhelmed, immediately sat directly on his calves.
After that, it was Zhu Rong, but Zhu Rong was more timid, he wanted to sit and rest, but he was afraid that his father would come to admonish him for a while, and when he saw them sitting on the ground, he punished them for being disrespectful to the eldest brother of the prince.
So, he took a trick and patted Zhu Zhaoxuan's thigh and motioned for him to lie on his lap.
Zhu Zhaoxuan didn't know why, he thought that the seventh uncle was considerate of himself and took pity on himself.
As everyone knows, his shameless seventh uncle just wants to cover him.
The old man pities his young son and grandson the most, even if he suddenly comes to check the post and sees Zhu Zhaoxuan lying on his lap, he will forgive himself.
After these princes let go of themselves, Zhu Di, who was still kneeling there upright, looked very different.
Zhu Shuang has never looked down on this fourth brother, and when he saw that he was still pretending, he was the first to spray.
"Oops!"
"I, the King of Qin, am abolished, and I have long been a rebel in the old man's heart, so I was almost put on my head by the old man!"
"It's like the fourth brother, you have done everything you should do, but the Manchu Dynasty is praised by the civil and military, and the old man praises you even more!"
"It's not good, in a few days, when we see people, we have to salute them, and then bow down and call them ministers!"
After listening to Zhu Shuang's words, everyone looked at Zhu Di with their eyes brushed, and put Zhu Di on the back.
"Second brother, I haven't offended you, have I?"
"You're in Shaanxi, I'm in Beiping, we don't have river water, why can't you get along with me?"
Zhu Di replied to Zhu Shuang, and then sat on his calf.
The first is that his kneeling leg is numb, and the second is that he doesn't want to be too unsociable and cause other brothers to be jealous.
Zhu Shuang saw that Zhu Di didn't kneel anymore, so he stopped targeting him, and continued to criticize the old man's eccentric behavior.
"By the way, what do you think the old man thinks?"
Zhu Hu deliberately pretended to be stupid and asked when he heard this.
"What do you think?"
Zhu Shuang said to Nunu, the tablet in the mourning hall.
"Don't play dumb with me, I don't believe you don't know what I'm talking about!"
"You say, who does the old man want to pass on the position to, is it the fourth child, or the eldest grandson of the eldest brother's family?"
When Zhu Di heard this, a trace of displeasure flashed on his face.
"Second brother, Zhu Xiongying has already died, what is your intention to mention the emperor's eldest grandson?"
Zhu Shuang snorted dissatisfiedly.
"Can the dead fight the living?"
"Besides, the palace has called Zhu Yunwen's grandson the eldest grandson for many years, and the father has acquiesced, I don't believe you haven't heard of it!"
"Isn't there also Zhu Yunxi?"
"I think they're only less than two years old, right?"
Qi King Zhu Yu couldn't help muttering a few words, he didn't say this for Zhu Yunxi, but just habitually wanted to make a bar.
Zhu Shuang sneered when he heard this.
"That kid can't do it!"
"It's too wretched, far worse than Zhu Yunwen."
"I heard that Zhu Yunwen has been virtuous since he was a child, sensitive and studious, respects his teachers, honors his parents, and so on."
"I also heard that during the serious illness of the eldest brother, this grandson was waiting for him without untying his clothes, which attracted praise from people inside and outside the palace."
Zhu Zhaoxuan, who was already stunned and was about to fall asleep, was not convinced on the spot when he heard this, he was already young, and as soon as the child's comparison heart came up, where did he care so much.
"Second uncle!"
"My mother said that I am also very filial, and I am also very studious, and now I can memorize the three-character scripture!"
Zhu Shuang saw that this grandson suddenly interjected, and said a word mercilessly.
"You also deserve to be compared with Zhu Yunwen?"
"Don't look at you and him are both emperors and grandsons, but one of you is in the sky and the other is on the ground!"
"Second Uncle said something ugly, can you meet your imperial grandfather once in a few years?"
"If my guess is correct, you don't even remember what your imperial grandfather looks like now!"
"Your father was not treated well when he was alive, and you still want to think about the throne of the Ming Dynasty?"
"Second uncle advises you to die as soon as possible, even if our uncles die, the throne of the Ming Dynasty will not be your turn to inherit!"
Zhu Zhaoxuan cried out with a "wow" when he heard this, and asked with an unconvinced face.
"Why can't the throne be my turn, I am also the grandson of the emperor's grandfather!"
In fact, Zhu Zhaoxuan is completely a child's angry words, not to mention that he doesn't know what the emperor does, he doesn't even know what King Lu does.
After all, he has only been weaned for a few years, so he doesn't know so many twists and turns.
Zhu Rong saw that Zhu Shuang was still stretching his neck and wanted to speak, so he immediately scolded him.
"Second brother, you can say a few words."
"Zhu Zhaoxuan is still a child, you coax him to cry!"
Zhu Shuang immediately closed his mouth when he heard this, he didn't even want to coax his own child, how could he be interested in taking care of this little cub?
Just when Zhu Shuang was thinking about how to start a conversation, he saw the crown princess Lu leading Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxi into the mourning hall, followed by more than a dozen palace maids and eunuchs behind the three of them, each carrying a food box in their hands.
"I've seen all the royal brothers and nephews in this palace!"
"Yun Wei, Yun Xi still didn't come forward to greet your uncles?"
"Yun Wei greets all Uncle Wang!"
"Yun Xi greets all the uncles!"
Zhu Yunwen was very respectful, and Zhu Yunxi was so much less interesting in comparison.
But no matter which of the two of them stepped forward to salute, the vassal kings just sat on the ground, without the slightest intention of getting up.
Zhu Shuang's eyelids drooped even more, pretending not to see it. Zhu Di saw it, but it was better not to look at it, but it was his sharp eyes that frightened Zhu Yunwen all over, and couldn't help but take half a step back.
Zhu Hu responded with a smile, but he didn't smile at it. The king of Chu snorted with his nose, and the right was to say hello.
Only King Qi was more modest, nodded towards Zhu Yunwen, and said that this kid is really sensible, which is already the best response to him.
When the Lu clan saw the expressions of the vassal kings treating their sons, a chill suddenly rose in their hearts.
If the old man really passes the throne to Yun Wei in the future, his group of uncles will also be a big trouble!
I have to find a way to solve these troubles while the old man is alive!
Zhu Yunwen saw that Uncle Wang didn't want to see him at all, and his little face couldn't help but darken.
He didn't want to come in the first place, and he didn't have enough time to memorize his homework, so where was the time wasted on them!
However, the mother concubine had to drag him over, and he didn't dare to disobey the mother concubine, so he had to bite the bullet.
Now that he is not welcomed, he wants to rush back to endorse immediately.
Otherwise, if you can't complete the homework of reciting a thousand words, you will be ridiculed by the uncles in the main hall tomorrow!
Thinking of this, Zhu Yunwen couldn't wait to shake his two big mouths, what kind of anger did he have with that grandson when he was idle!
Now that grandson has nothing to do, he is tired like a dead dog every day, and he is almost out of time to sleep!
"Mother!"
"The child has already given you Uncle Wang, so don't bother here, go back to endorse first!"
After Zhu Yunwen said this, he turned around and left, leaving the embarrassed Lu family to play a round.
"Forgive me, brothers, my father is now personally supervising this child's homework, and he also assigns thousands of words to this child every day to memorize articles, so that this child doesn't even have enough time to sleep......"
"All the royal brothers are hungry, the palace is not as good as the outside of the palace, and you can't make a fire after noon, I brought you some snacks and cooked food, and your royal brothers will take a look first."
"Later, I will send someone to bring hot tea to help you brothers and sisters ward off the cold......"
As soon as Lu's voice fell, the eunuchs and palace maids behind her stepped forward, first set up a small table in front of each prince, and then respectfully took out a plate of snacks and the like from the food box.
Seeing that everyone was arranged, the Lu family blessed everyone, and then left the mourning hall with a eunuch and palace maid.
After Lu Shi took people away, Zhu Shuang picked up the pastry and pinched it, and once again commented on it with a poisonous tongue.
"What kind of garbage pastry is this, it's hard enough to kill people, and I'm embarrassed to bring it to us to eat!"
This sentence was just an introduction, and then he pulled the topic to Zhu Yunwen.
"Then Zhu Yunwen is too, I really think that I took his father's class and became the emperor's grandson!"
"Who are you looking at what he did just now, with a black face?"
"He hasn't been the emperor's grandson yet, so he dares to lose face with us. When he becomes the emperor in the future, he will have to arrest us all one by one and cut off our heads in the capital! ”
