"Baochai, why don't you hurry up and pour a glass of water with Your Majesty!" Yang Qingyin said with a smile.

The queen just drank it cold, and now let the emperor drink it too, Baochai will inevitably have a ridiculous feeling in her heart.

"Yes!"

Anyway, since this is the queen's order, Baochai will be ordered to do it.

When she turned to enter the room, Zhu Xianming sat beside the queen, her eyes focused on her bowl of cold white open.

"You're just drinking this?"

Yang Qingyin said with a smile: "My son drinks this, why can't I?" ”

Her words made Zhu Xianming very embarrassed, and the latter immediately changed the topic and said: "There are so many people here, why let the thirteenth daughter-in-law serve in person!" ”

Although this sentence was ordinary, it surprised Yang Qingyin, the emperor actually called Baochai "thirteen daughters-in-law", which is tantamount to approving this girl in a clear manner.

"It's natural for my daughter-in-law to serve her in-laws, can't I call her anymore?" Yang Qingyin replied with a smile.

Baochai was walking out of the house, she had heard what she had just said, and she was extremely excited at the moment.

"Father, please use it!"

Looking at the steaming white water in the bowl in front of him, Zhu Xianming couldn't help but smile and said, "I haven't drunk it like this for a long time!" ”

At this time, Yang Qingyin said: "Your Majesty has not drunk water like this for a long time, and they have never suffered such a crime since they were born!" ”

Zhu Xianming replied: "Even if it is for me to plow, it is also appropriate to suffer a little, I went into battle for my father back then, but it was much harder than their days!" ”

After taking a sip of hot water, Zhu Xianming looked at Baochai who was standing in front of him and asked, "I heard...... Old Thirteen has many resentful words here? ”

"Father, but this matter is a misunderstanding......"

When Baochai racked his brains to talk, Zhu Jinghong also took his two brothers and hurried to the small courtyard of the thatched hut.

Seeing that he was not shocked on the surface, in fact, the CPU was about to smoke, thinking about how to let the old man let him go.

"Brother Thirteen!"

Hearing someone shouting to himself, Zhu Jinghong raised his head slightly, and saw Zhu Yunsheng and a few people not far away.

"Third sister, you're here too!" Zhu Jinghong rarely smiled.

Although he hadn't seen each other for two months, he could clearly feel that Daiyu and Xiangyun had grown taller, and their whole temperament had also changed.

If I'm not mistaken, Daiyu is fourteen years old this year, and Xiangyun is also thirteen...... Zhu Jinghong thought secretly.

"Brother Thirteen, what do you want?" Zhu Yunsheng stepped forward and asked.

"Third sister, I want to ask you...... What have you been doing in the past few months when my brother was in trouble! Zhu Jinghong said sadly.

"Thirteenth master, don't wronged the princess, she can intercede for you every day!" Xiangyun was the first to come out and fight unevenly.

Daiyu then said: "I thought that the Thirteenth Master was a husband who stood up to the sky, but now it seems that he is almost like a reckless man!" ”

"Why am I like a reckless man?" Zhu Jinghong asked with a smile.

Glancing at Zhu Jinghong, Daiyu raised her head and said, "If it weren't for the reckless man, how could he casually wronged the princess!" ”

Hearing Daiyu and the others speak for themselves, Zhu Yunsheng was extremely happy in his heart, and secretly praised these two as really good sisters.

In the future, we will be sisters for life...... Zhu Yunsheng thought so.

"Oops...... Why are you so aggressive, how can the thirteenth master mean this, he is playing with the princess! ”

Zhen Qin's voice suddenly sounded, which made Zhu Jinghong's eyes sweep over, and then he found that this girl was also missing.

Although it's still silly, it's also bumpy now, and it's at the age when you can bud and wait to be released.

Zhen Qin wouldn't know that she was "stupid" in Zhu Jinghong's eyes.

At this moment, she was very happy in her heart, because there were so many people present, she was the only one who spoke out to defend Zhu Jinghong, how could she not be treated differently.

bravely met Zhu Jinghong's gaze, and Zhen Qin's face suddenly turned red.

The thirteenth master really has me in his heart, if it weren't for his aunt and grandmother to stop him, how could the princess be picked up by the Xue family...... Zhen Qin thought secretly.

"Sister Qin, what are you stupid? It's going to be watery! ”

After saying this, Daiyu laughed out loud, causing Xiangyun to laugh too.

What Zhen Qin has in mind, Daiyu Xiangyun knows it well, how can she not be funny when she sees her like this.

Subconsciously touched the corners of her mouth, Zhen Qin found that she was not drooling, and her eyes were full of anger when she looked at Daiyu.

At this time, Zhu Yunsheng spoke: "Thirteenth brother, where are you working?" How to work? Take us to see it! ”

"What's there to see here......"

However, before Zhu Jinghong finished speaking, he heard Daiyu say: "The words of the Thirteenth Master are not right, as a people, food is the sky, if there is no work, how can you get food and clothing?" It can be seen that this work is the world's first and foremost event! ”

What is this girl doing with me? Zhu Jinghong was a little puzzled in his heart.

Now he doesn't have the heart to play with a few girls, so it's only right to go back to attack the emperor and empress.

But before he could speak, a eunuch galloped in the distance, and everyone present recognized him as one of the great eunuchs in Kunning Palace.

"Thirteenth Master, the queen mother ordered you to go over immediately!"

Zhu Jinghong was about to find a reason to leave, and when he heard this, he replied: "I'll go right away!" ”

After that, he looked at Zhu Yunsheng and said, "Third sister, look...... It's not that I don't accompany you, but I can't help myself! ”

Who knew that Zhu Yunsheng didn't look at him, but asked Zhu Jingchun and the others: "Brother Fourteen, are you two all right?" ”

These two people didn't want to see the emperor, but when they heard the inquiry, they hurriedly responded, and led Zhu Yunsheng and a few people away.

Only Zhen Qin was reluctant, but unfortunately with his affectionate gaze, he could only see the back of Zhu Jinghong leaving.

Let's say that when Zhu Jinghong came to the outside of the hospital, he heard the harmonious laughter inside, and there was even an old man among them.

It's rare to see the old man laughing, did he eat bee droppings? Zhu Jinghong said secretly.

Of course, Zhu Xianming didn't eat bee feces, but listened to Baochai "coercing" Zhu Jinghong and making him eat deflated before he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

Thinking that this bastard boy was originally a muddy person, and no one could restrain him except for his husband and wife, Zhu Xianming had always felt a headache.

Now that the daughter of the Xue family can persuade her to hear about it, how can she not let Zhu Xianming feel greatly relieved.

In addition, after listening to the interesting story told by Baochai, Zhu Xianming laughed heartily, and became more and more satisfied with the daughter-in-law in front of him.

Even Zhu Xianming's prejudices are like this, and Yang Qingyin on the side is even more satisfied.

Looking at Zhu Jinghong, who appeared outside the courtyard, Baochai said with a smile: "Father, queen mother, look, my husband is coming back!" ”

The two emperors and queens swept their eyes out of the house, the smile on the former's face gradually disappeared, and the latter got up and greeted: "Thirteen, come in!" ”

Zhu Jinghong entered the courtyard, but he still looked "half-dead", without half of the brilliance of being a prince, and he looked like he had been greatly wronged.

Seeing him like this, Yang Qingyin was distressed, and immediately stepped forward to look at his baby son.

"It's been hard for you these days, you hurry up and compensate your father, he will let you out when he's happy!" Yang Qingyin played a round field.

Today, she had to call the emperor over, in order to let her son pass the test and leave this place of hardship as soon as possible.

"Mother, my son really doesn't know what's wrong!" Zhu Jinghong asked rhetorically.

Even at this time, maintaining the persona was extremely important to him.

He wants to get involved in military power, and the old man is the way he goes, if he doesn't behave "recklessly", it will be really difficult to make the emperor feel at ease.

After drinking the last sip of the cold white open, Zhu Xianming said calmly: "Take a look...... I'll just say that he doesn't change his teachings, and the mud can't support the wall! ”

Seeing this situation, Baochai also spoke: "Lord Wang...... Don't play with the temper of a child, my father is willing to forgive you, this is a great grace! ”

Information is easy to change flavor in the process of dissemination, for example, the queen's words came out of Baochai's mouth, and the meaning became that the emperor had forgiven Zhu Jinghong, and now he only needed to kowtow and thank him.

This is Baochai's cleverness, and he can't hide Zhu Xianming's insight, but he doesn't put this matter at ease.

is not deaf or blind, as long as Zhu Jinghong is soft now, Zhu Xianming can still consider letting him go.

"Let's go!" Yang Qingyin pushed Zhu Jinghong.

When he came to the emperor, Zhu Jinghong seemed reluctant, and he wanted to make his expression and demeanor real, but at this moment, it was a very test of his acting skills.

I saw him kneeling on the ground and said with a somewhat stylized meaning: "Son, thank your father!" ”

"I don't think you're convinced!" Zhu Xianming said indifferently.

At this moment, Zhu Jinghong can basically confirm that no matter whether the old man is forced by the pressure of the queen, or feels that the test is in place, he does have the idea of "pardoning" him in his heart.

Zhu Jinghong was relieved to be sure of this, and it was time for him to make some moths and continue to consolidate his character.

Facing the emperor's question, Zhu Jinghong looked directly at the queen: "Mother, what do you see...... My dad didn't even think about letting me go! ”

"Thirteen have knelt down with you, what else are you going to do...... Could it be that you, the king of the country, are still angry with a child! ”

In terms of the ability of moral kidnapping, Yang Qingyin is also a leader.

"Kid? Is he a kid? ”

Yang Qingyin immediately replied: "He is a father, and that is also your son!" ”

"Dad, my son still won't embarrass you, I'd better stay here and continue to farm, and wait for the wheat harvest next year...... I'm sure I'll send you a few loads! ”

Good fellow, that's a miserable thing to say!

Saying that he is not filial is still obedient, and saying that he is filial is always a little wrong.

"Look at how sensible Thirteen is now!" Yang Qingyin added another sentence.

Zhu Xianming still didn't respond, but picked up the "water bowl" from the side, but unfortunately it was empty.

This just gave him a chance to play on the topic, so he immediately said angrily: "Bring the tea!" ”

The eunuch who was waiting next to him was frightened half to death, so he immediately served tea and ended the topic just now.

Yang Qingyin is not a stupid person, knowing that because Zhu Jinghong is talking nonsense, it is impossible to pardon him today, and the matter can only be postponed for two more days.

When she complained about her youngest son, Baochai, who was standing on the side, was very calm, because she knew what Zhu Jinghong's plan was.

obviously wants to go out, but at this juncture, he is still acting, and even Baochai has to sigh that his own man's mind is deep enough.

Then the topic changed, mainly the queen and Baochai were talking, and Zhu Jinghong's father and son rarely spoke, and the two could be said to be "disgusted" with each other at the moment.

After a hurried meal, the emperor and queen were about to take people away, and the lively hut would become cold again.

When the time came to the afternoon, Zhu Jingyuan, who had been out for a day, was finally carried back to King Rui's mansion.

Leaving aside the accompanying eunuchs, Zhu Jingyuan entered the inner mansion and was about to go to the residence of the concubines, but was stopped by Chen Zhi, who was basking in the sun outside the Yin'an Palace.

"Does the prince know that my father went to Shanglin Yuan today?"

Walking towards his wife, Zhu Jingyuan replied casually: "I know!" ”

Chen Zhi continued: "I heard people say...... The queen mother asked the thirteenth brother to admit his mistake to his father, and planned to ask his father to pardon him, but he was disturbed by the thirteenth brother's disrespectful words! ”

Zhu Jingyuan really didn't know this news, not that he couldn't get this news, but that he had more important things to do.

"This old thirteen is really as muddy as ever!" Zhu Jingyuan couldn't help but sigh.

At this moment, he had completely let down his guard against it, and felt that the previous excessive suspicion was too superfluous, how could such a fool threaten him.

"Find a time in the past two days, you still go to your father to say goodbye, and by the way, plead with the thirteenth brother, and I will also go to the queen mother to say more good things for him!"

"Hmm!" Zhu Jingyuan nodded, showing filial piety was what he should do.

"That's right...... Yesterday in Jinling, someone sent tens of thousands of taels of silver, how to deal with it? ”

"Who sent it? To whom? ”

Chen Zhi replied: "Anyway, it was still those people, who sent it to my uncle's house this time, saying what was a gift for his birthday!" ”

The people who gave the silver were very smart and would not send the silver directly to the Rui Wang's Mansion, so they played all kinds of tricks in it.

"Go back!" Zhu Jingyuan said in a deep voice.

In the past few months, he has rejected the money from Jinling more than a dozen times, and now that he has made a decision, he will be consistent.

Chen Zhi also knew that the stakes were high, so she asked, "I'm afraid that they sent it in the end, if you really return it...... Then there will be no place to turn around! ”

As a princess, Chen Zhi has an understanding of the current court situation, knows what interests are involved in the new deal, and what does it mean for Zhu Jingyuan to refuse Jinling's overtures.

Picking up a piece of pastry from the table, Zhu Jingyuan said slowly: "How my father decides, I will follow!" ”

"Then you will offend many people!" Chen Zhi reminded again.

Her mother's family is also a local gentry, so naturally she doesn't want to be found out by the imperial court to hide the population of the fields, so many people and daughters come to lobby her.

After taking a deep look at his wife, Zhu Jingyuan said: "Most of the gentry in the world think that the eldest son of the fourth child should be the prince, and if I want these people to help me?" Even if they help, I can become a prince? ”

"The old man is in power now, no one can jump back under him, I'm just taking advantage of the situation!"

Seeing that Chen Zhi wanted to say more, Zhu Jingyuan's tone became cold and said, "Don't you forget...... I am already a member of the Zhu family! ”

Zhu Jingyuan didn't know what people Chen Zhi saw every day, and he had reminded him several times before that he should not associate with these people.

"What do you mean by that? Am I not thinking about you? Chen Zhi was unhappy.

"You are light, every day when you go out of the palace to see this and that, leaving me alone to deal with those officials, how can those people be easy to get along with......

"One by one, they have ghosts in their hearts, but they are high-sounding, and I have to take care of their face and maintain the prestige of the palace...... Am I going to be easy? ”

To tell the truth, his princess Zhu Jingyuan is really not easy to do, and all kinds of entertainment can be described as extremely complicated, especially women's families are easy to care, and it is not only hard work but also labor to straighten out various relationships.

"Forget it...... Anyway, what I did was wrong, I just don't care about these! ”

After saying that, Chen Zhi got up to leave, but fortunately, Zhu Jingyuan grabbed her quickly.

"Princess, if you don't care, how can this palace be maintained, I can't go to see those female dependents!" Zhu Jingyuan sneered.

"Why do you need the prince to go in person, the two side concubines in the mansion are three to choose the waiters, plus the seven or eight concubines...... I don't do it, some people do it! ”

Chen Zhi's words were full of sarcasm, and it was obvious that she also had grievances against Zhu Jingyuan.

"Princess, these words are divided...... You are the concubine of this palace, enjoy the honor of sitting in the palace, how can you let others do it for you! Zhu Jingyuan explained.

He and his husband have a solid emotional foundation, and now they are working together to find a big position, and it is good to talk about many contradictions.

"Come, come, sit down...... Let's talk! ”

While speaking, Zhu Jingyuan helped Chen Zhi back to his position, and at the moment he had no intention of finding someone else.

Next, the two had another discussion, first making a plan to refuse to contribute silver, and then discussing the words of the emperor and queen tomorrow.

Husband and wife are united in the same heart, which is the only way for them to get things done.
