Chapter 41: Mother and Son

When they arrived at the East Palace, Zhu Xiongying and Zhu Yunwen saw the crown princess Lu, who was in front of the prince's door at the moment.

Zhu Xiongying's footsteps faltered slightly, and then he walked over naturally, saluted and said, "I've seen the concubine." ”

Zhu Xiongying's action is normal.

But it's too normal. made the crown princess Lu and Zhu Yunwen a little incredulous.

For Lui, this is even more so.

Since the serious illness that year, some things between Zhu Xiongying and the Lu family have been unexplained. It doesn't matter if it's a misunderstanding, it's not a misunderstanding. A lot of things are hard to recover. And Zhu Xiongying was very resistant to seeing the Lu family.

After all, the Lu family is his mother.

As a son, he was to salute and greet him. But he has a grudge against the Lu family in his heart, and he is very resistant to this matter, even if there are some occasions that cannot be avoided, he cannot be avoided. When he bows, he will definitely not do the whole salute, but he will have to make some small gestures. In short, he refused to bow in peace.

Lu Shi was very tolerant of this matter, and always said: Forget it, children are not sensible. Such words, but there is some secret joy in my heart. Because Zhu Xiongying felt that he had done the feat of not bowing to the Lu family. Actually, it's to subtract points for yourself. Let everyone who sees it know that Zhu Xiongying behaves frivolously.

But now, Zhu Xiongying saluted and greeted him, not slowly. It's pretty standard. There's nothing wrong with that.

Lu Shi felt a chill in his heart for a moment. Subconsciously pinched the handkerchief in his hand, eager to poke the handkerchief.

From the perspective of the Lu family, there was no trace of resentment on Zhu Xiongying's face, and some were just respectful to the Lu family. And the Lu family didn't believe that Zhu Xiongying's hatred for her was gone.

A child thinks carefully, how can it change.

In the past, the Lu family did not regard Zhu Xiongying himself as a threat, and it was not Zhu Xiongying himself who threatened the Lu family, but his identity. It's different anymore. Being able to hide one's mind is not something that ordinary children can do.

"Zhu Xiongying has grown up." At this moment, the Lu family knew that they could no longer treat Zhu Xiongying as an ordinary child.

Lu's shock was instantaneous. Immediately, her face was full of spring breeze, and she seemed to be Zhu Xiongying's mother, and hurriedly helped Zhu Xiongying up. said: "Child, I have suffered outside in the past few years. ”

Zhu Xiongying Ren Lu took his hand, like a son who had returned from afar, and said: "Liaodong is also the world of the Ming Dynasty, and the son is the grandson of the Ming Emperor, no matter where he goes, he can't talk about hardship." You're welcome. ”

Zhu Xiongying's fastest growing period was actually not the period when He Xi took Zhu Xiongying. It was the period when I was in class at Yingkou University.

He had in-depth contact with students from all over Liaodong and saw the world he had never seen before. suddenly felt that the grievances with the Lu family were actually not important. Not to mention, did the Lu family really want to kill him in the first place. Even if there is, compared to the tragedy of eating and breaking bones and cooking, it is nothing?

These small contradictions at home. It's nothing compared to the world's major events.

It is the change of mind and mentality. It is not possible for Zhu Xiongying to reconcile with the Lu family. However, it allows Zhu Xiongying to look at this matter from a higher perspective. This kind of mother-son affection, he can accompany the Lu family to act.

However, he is also reluctant to play too much. Zhu Xiongying said: "Mother, the child hasn't seen his father for a long time, and I invite my mother to let the child go to see his father." ”

The corners of Lu's eyes twitched slightly, and the meaning of Zhu Xiongying's words was clearly that she stopped them from seeing each other. Lu couldn't afford this crime. Lu Shi hurriedly said, "The queen is inside." Speak to your father, the King. Let me wait outside. If you want to go in, go in yourself. ”

There is a slight hint of self-deprecation.

Zhu Xiongying was overjoyed in his heart, and the emperor's grandmother also came.

Zhu Xiongying said: "How dare the child. So with the Lu family, Zhu Yunwen waited quietly outside the door.

------

Several rooms apart, Queen Ma's hair was gray. The furrows on his face are getting deeper and deeper, but the kindness on his body has not decreased. On the contrary, it has increased.

Queen Ma said: "Doctor Dai said that your illness is actually a heart disease. He can cure physical diseases, but he can't get rid of heart diseases. It's just going back and forth, and it's not going to get better. What do you have in mind that you don't want to tell your father and tell me? ”

"Whatever it is, just talk about it."

The prince's face was pale, and this paleness was not a pathology, but he had not seen much sunlight for several months.

Since the funeral of King Qin, the crown prince has not gone out much. The body is repeatedly uncomfortable.

There is no way to let Dr. Dai Shen, there is a disease, that is, he feels that he is sick. Saying that the prince is pretending to be sick is naturally false. However, the prince's illness is more of a mental pressure, and internal friction leads to physical lesions.

Severe depression comes with symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, insomnia, dizziness, etc., specific to a certain person and their own special place.

The situation of the crown prince today is similar to this.

It's hard to say what kind of disease he had. But his symptoms are severe mental exhaustion, self-denial, and a series of other things, resulting in physical and mental exhaustion.

Doctor Dai may not know what depression is, but he understands very well that the prince's heart knot is difficult to solve, and this disease will not be cured.

It's just that the prince has all kinds of things in his heart, but he doesn't want to say them to the queen mother. Because in his opinion, is it useful to say it?

It's useless.

On the contrary, it made the queen mother worried.

The prince said, "Queen Mother, it's all right. Dr. Dai is exaggerating. I took a few pills and it was fine. ”

Queen Ma held the prince's hand and said, "Can't you even believe me?" I know about the second child, I can't blame you. You don't have to blame yourself. The deceased is gone. Everything has to look forward, the second son's son is not sensible, and you don't have to take it to heart. ”

If it is said that Queen Ma has no resentment towards the crown prince about the death of King Qin, it is not right. In fact, deep down, she complained a little about the prince. Even if you want to deal with the second child, you shouldn't be so sloppy and let the second child encounter such a thing.

But, as Queen Ma said, the deceased is gone. He had already lost one son and could not afford to lose another.

The prince said, "It's really fine. ”

Queen Ma held the prince's hand and said, "Biao'er, Zhizi Mo Ruomu, do you have something in your heart, can't I see it?" Queen Ma had tears in her eyes and said: "Over the years, among all the children, you are the most worry-free. How did it become like this today? ”

The crown prince looked at Queen Ma weeping, he smiled sadly, and said, "Okay, does the queen mother want to know?" It was also the queen mother who let me read the book He Xi brought. And ever since I learned about the Jingnan Rebellion, what I have been doing is how to eliminate the Jingnan Rebellion. But now, everyone in the world is in danger. This matter was planned by He Xi, my father was in charge, and I only dealt with some finishing work. But I messed up. Make it look like this. ”

Queen Ma comforted him and said, "It's not your fault. There are some things that no one can imagine. ”

The prince said: "But the battle of Jingyan may not be avoided. ”

When Queen Ma heard the prince say this, her face suddenly became solemn. Queen Ma has been living in Houhu for many years, and she doesn't care much about the affairs of the previous dynasty. Because she knew that in history she was dead. Her current life is earned for one more day.

Why bother with anything else?

And Queen Ma has always believed in Zhu Yuanzhang's ability. What's more, after Zhu Yuanzhang learned the knowledge of later generations, he had a lot of ideas on many things, and he also changed some mistakes, such as indiscriminate killing.

So she rarely cares about the government. I also did not perceive the deep changes in the imperial court.

It's just that she believes in the prince and knows that the prince can't talk nonsense. He dared to say this, he must have his own judgment.

Empress Ma said: "How did it come to this point, even if they have other ideas, almost all the vassal kings are abroad, and it is difficult to protect themselves, what can they do?" You also have to believe that your father will be able to handle it. ”

The prince laughed and said, "Yes, that's all. What's the difference? But the one who put the world in a big gamble is the father. ”
