Speaking of which, my son is sixteen years old this year.

Ordinary people, some of them are married at this age, and they are barely an adult, but Zhu Jianshen doesn't feel relieved, at least he doesn't feel relieved that he can be entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

It is true that the son is very sensible and thoughtful, if he is an ordinary prince, it is really good, and he can be used as a prince......

But it's a little worse.

Zhu Jianshen sometimes wonders if he is too demanding, with his merits, the actions of the Chenghua Dynasty, it is okay for his son to follow the rules, and it is enough to be a gentleman who keeps the rules.

But sometimes I feel that as the prince of the Ming Dynasty, the future son of heaven can't be too complacent.

Therefore, his attitude towards his son fluctuates between hot and cold, sometimes close, sometimes indifferent.

The tiger father may not have a tiger son...... Zhu Jianshen was bitter in his heart.

Zhu Youzhu faintly sensed his father's disappointment, and arched his hand and said: "Compared with his father, Erchen is indeed stupid, but Erchen will be the Ming Emperor in the future, and he is willing to follow his father's example, worthy of the ancestors and ancestors, and worthy of the people of the country." ”

Zhu Jianshen was stunned, and suddenly smiled, laughing heartily.

After laughing, he said: "There is a kind!" ”

It's no wonder that Zhu Jianshen is like this, it's really his son's introverted personality, it's hard to say, it's a person who can't kick a fart with three feet, and it really makes Zhu Jianshen feel relieved to be able to say such a thing today.

Zhu Youzhu smiled, and for a while, he was not sure whether his father was praising him or belittling him.

So he diverted the topic: "Father, it's cold, don't catch a cold, or go back to ......"

Zhu Jianshen sneered: "What, you are fat and afraid of the cold?" ”

“…… The son is the heart of the father. ”

"Okay, follow me to Changle Palace and pay a New Year's greeting to your imperial grandfather."

"Hey, okay."

~

Changle Palace.

When the father and son came, Zhu Qizhen was still sleeping.

His work and rest are irregular, he sleeps when he is sleepy, he doesn't sleep if he is not sleepy, and he hardly goes out of the dormitory, so that he even forgets the days, and he doesn't know that today is the first day of the Lunar New Year.

The two of them sat in the dormitory for most of the hour before Zhu Qizhen woke up quietly.

Zhu Youjiao's eyes were sharp, and when he saw that the emperor's grandfather woke up, he hurriedly walked to the bed and said, "My grandson has given the emperor's grandfather a New Year's greeting, and I wish the emperor's grandfather good health and all the best." ”

Zhu Qizhen looked dazed, and after a while, he seemed to return to normal, and said with a smile: "It's Youjiao, hurry up, is it the New Year today?" ”

"Yes, Father." Zhu Jianshen stepped forward and said, "Let's have a reunion dinner at noon today, right?" ”

"Look at my ......" Zhu Qizhen touched all over his body, but he didn't touch the red envelope, and said to Zhu Youzhang ashamedly: "Grandpa forgot about this, and he didn't have any preparations......

After a pause, he said to Zhu Jianshen: "I won't go, you can get together." ”

He scratched his gray hair that slept messily, and chuckled: "The old man won't join in the fun, you young people get together, I'll just read the book." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the bedside notebook, flipped through a few pages, and scratched his head in annoyance, as if he had forgotten where he had seen.

Zhu Youzhu asked curiously: "Why did the imperial grandfather put the bookmark?" ”

"Huh...... Forget about it. Zhu Qizhen smiled, "I'm old, and I always forget things." ”

"See deeply."

"Father, please speak."

"Don't waste time with me for the New Year, go spend it with your children." Zhu Qizhen said with a smile.

At this moment, Zhu Jian was deeply worried, he also had an heir, and he could empathize with his father.

After a pause, he said, "Father, the son is also your child." ”

Zhu Qizhen was stunned, and immediately, the old tears were rampant......

At noon, the three of them had dinner together, and the Zhou family of Kunning Palace waited for a long time, but they didn't wait for their son.

After lunch.

Zhu Jianshen persuaded: "Father, don't stay in the palace all the time, after a few days, after a few days, you will have a spring, go out for a walk, and scatter your heart." ”

He didn't want to give his father a concubine, and he felt that his father's state was enough, but he didn't want his father to be desolate in his old age.

Zhu Qizhen shook his head: "I'm used to this rhythm of life, I don't want to go out, and I don't know where to go. ”

After a pause, he gave his son a chance to fulfill his filial piety: "This is almost the same, let's get some new ones." ”

"Hey, okay." Zhu Jianshen agreed, and then said: "It's okay if my father doesn't want to go out, don't be bored alone, you have been closed all the time, Concubine Chen, and your grandchildren, they can't do their filial piety." ”

Zhu Qizhen smiled: "There are so many slaves and maids in the palace, how can I be willing to call my daughter-in-law and grandson, I know that you are all filial, I just want to be pure, you have your affairs, you have your life, I don't want you to waste energy on me, alas......"

He sighed: "Everyone has their own way of living, and my father likes this way of living, and if you are filial, you should follow your father." ”

Zhu Jianshen smiled bitterly, so he stopped persuading.

Over the years, he has not persuaded much, but his father is very stubborn, and he is helpless.

Just follow him......

When I came out of Changle Palace, it was almost time.

Zhu Jianshen came to Kunning Palace.

It's lively here, all the concubines are here, even Zhen'er, who doesn't deal with the Empress Dowager Zhou, and even Zhen'er, who is incompatible, is here.

A few tables of 10,000 cake bars were opened, and the 'bang, bang, bang, bang, ......' was accompanied by laughter, like singing a big play.

These people, their lives have always been very nourishing, they enjoy themselves all day long, and they don't care about anything.

Zhu Jianshen was jealous......

However, during the Chinese New Year today, he didn't want to be bad for Yaxing, so he walked to the queen table and sat down.

"Xiao Zhang, you go to Zhen'er's table and change her."

Concubine De: "...... Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Zhou: "......"

Zhen'er at the next table: "......"

Zhu Jianshen's command did not stop, and said: "Xiao Shao, you and Xiao Ji have changed." ”

Concubine Chen's eyes were red, and she sobbed: "The concubine obeys the order." ”

"Why are you still crying during the Chinese New Year?" Zhu Jianshen was speechless.

Concubine Chen is naturally not only because of the change of position, but because the emperor's husband has become more and more estranged from her and her over the years, and she no longer has the original affection.

Obviously, the emperor's husband has changed his hexagram, and he still thinks that the prince is good.

Seeing this, Concubine Ji Shu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, let's not change it, it's good like this." ”

Before Zhu Jianshen could speak, Zhou spoke first: "Change, Xiao Ji, come and sit." ”

Concubine Chen hung her head, got up and saluted, went straight to Concubine Ji Shu's side, and said in a low voice: "Sister Concubine, let's change." ”

"Uh... Good. ”

Concubine Ji Shu is helpless, she has no quarrel with the world, but she doesn't want to, trouble will come naturally, who will reason with her.

"Come, sit beside the queen mother." Before Concubine Ji Shu arrived, Zhou took her hand affectionately.

Obviously, the position of the crown prince is unbreakable, and it is necessary to have a good relationship with this daughter-in-law.

There is already a queen and queen, plus a prince's biological mother, and she, the queen mother, this harem...... It's still her world.

Since the Emperor Taishang came back, her restless heart has become restless again.

Of course, she just wants to take back control of the harem.

Pulling Concubine Ji Shu to sit down, Zhou turned his head and said, "Emperor." ”

Zhu Jianshen turned his head to talk to Zhen'er, pretending not to hear.

"Emperor, Emperor......" Zhou called a few more times, and saw that his son still ignored her, so he had to say: "Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Jianshen seemed to hear this, raised his head and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"The prince is sixteen this year, isn't it time to choose the crown princess?" Zhou said, and winked at Concubine Ji Shu, "What does Concubine Shu think?" ”

She's giving favors.

Concubine Ji also knew that she was showing affection, but ...... She also knows the attitude of the emperor's husband towards his mother.

This is a favor, this is obviously a disservice, you might as well not say it...... Concubine Ji Shu didn't take this hot potato, but said: "The concubine is a woman, a Taoist family, what other opinions do you have, everything is up to the emperor." ”

Zhou's face froze.

Zhu Jianshen smiled at the corner of his mouth.

"The Emperor...... Your Majesty, what do you think? ”

"I don't think it's right." Zhu Jianshen said lightly, "Youzhu was born in July of the sixth year of Chenghua, and now in the first month of the twenty-first year of Chenghua, he is said to be sixteen years old, but he is actually still young;

It is still in the stage of growing the body, and it is not suitable to get married. ”

Zhou: "......"

Zhen'er: Whew~ Comfortable.

"Then the emperor thinks when it is appropriate to choose the crown princess for Youjiao?" Zhou asked.

Since this has begun, it is natural to have an ending, otherwise, the favor will not be his own, as long as the emperor's son says the deadline, it will be fought for by himself.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Jianshen did not play cards according to common sense, "Ten thousand." ”

"Hu!" Zhen'er showdown, "Give money to money." ”

Zhou: -_-||

Shaking off a silver ingot, she continued to ask: "The emperor thinks that when is the right time to choose the crown princess for Youjiao?" ”

"When the time is right."

Zhu Jianshen rubbed the cards and said naturally.

"There has to be a day, right?" Zhou frowned.

"It's still early, we'll talk about it then." Zhu saw a good card in the deep yard, "Thirty thousand." ”

"Don't 30,000." Zhou casually typed one and urged, "The prince is the prince of the country, and choosing the princess for the prince is also the top priority, so you have to take precautions!" ”

Zhu Jianshen is a high-level player who wrestles with the bigwigs in the temple, how could he not know what his mother's calculations are, and said with a smile: "Does the queen mother think that you will not be able to marry a daughter-in-law in the future?" ”

"Well, when did the queen mother say that?"

"In that case, what's the hurry?"

"You ......" Zhou was displeased, "Is it wrong for this palace to want to hold his great-grandson earlier?" ”

"That's right," Zhu Jianshen said with a smile, "The queen mother takes good care of her body, and she will always hold it." ”

After a pause, he looked at Concubine Ji Shu, "What did Concubine Ai say?" ”

Concubine Ji Shu nodded: "What the emperor said is that the prince is still growing, and he is considering getting married now... It's too early. ”

When Zhou heard her say this, he suddenly became angry: The old lady helped you so much, but you stabbed the old lady behind him? Mother...... I'm not going to take you to play!

I thank you, if you don't say it, the emperor may still think about it, as soon as you say it, the emperor will definitely oppose it, you must not take me to play...... Concubine Ji Shufei was also a little angry in her heart.

She doesn't like to compete for favor, but when it comes to her son, she still cares a lot.

However, after staying in the deep palace for so many years, she is no longer as stupid as she was at the beginning, although she is angry in her heart, she looks like a tame little daughter-in-law on her face.

She played a card that Zhou asked for and reminded: "Queen Mother, Queen Mother." ”

"Bump."

Zhou hurriedly showed a pair, and then was stunned again: Why is there one less card for me?

Zhen'er: Silly, who let you finish playing cards, who is not separated from you?
