Yongning Palace.

"The Emperor's ......"

"Don't get up, lie down."

Zhu Jianshen helped Zhen'er lie down, and said softly: "Are you better?" ”

"Well..., it's better." Zhen'er lied, in fact, she realized that her life was short.

"That's good," Zhu Jianshen breathed a sigh of relief slightly, "Your illness is really long enough, it's been almost two months, let's get better quickly." ”

Zhen'er smiled bitterly, "Let the emperor bother." ”

"What are you talking about, when did you see me like this?" Zhu Jianshen pretended to be dissatisfied, and snorted: "Tell you, get better quickly, otherwise I will punish you." ”

Zhen'er looked up at the emperor Xiaofujun, her face was full of tenderness, and she sighed lightly: "The years are urging people to get old, in the blink of an eye, the emperor is not young anymore, and he has wrinkles." ”

"Really?" Zhu Jianshen touched his face, and then quipped, "What, I'm not handsome enough?" ”

"Handsome, still that handsome." Zhen'er chuckled, still coaxing him.

The two have been together for decades, not so much that Zhu Jianshen spoils Zhen'er, but that Zhen'er spoils Zhu Jianshen.

He has been like this since he was a child......

Be a younger brother's pet, be a little ancestor's pet......

"That's pretty much it." Zhu Jianshen snorted, "It's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, I order you to be good before the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”

"The concubine is the order." Zhen'a blinked.

Seeing that she was still naughty, Zhu Jianshen felt relieved, and the whole person became brisk.

"Then let's enjoy the moon together in the Mid-Autumn Festival." Zhu Jianshen smiled and said, "Now that Daming is becoming more and more stable, the prince can also share some of the burden for me, and when you are well, I will take you around." ”

After a pause, he sighed lightly: "It is said that the Son of Heaven sits on the world and is rich all over the world, however, I have never even been out of the capital division, and they all say that there is heaven and Suzhou and Hangzhou, and when the time comes, let's also go to Suzhou and Hangzhou to visit." ”

"What's the matter," Zhen'er said with a laugh, "how can the prince leave the center lightly?" ”

"What's not to do, these words are just the words of those people who gag their mouths." Zhu Jianshen said, "If they have a clear conscience, why are they afraid of going to the place?" ”

"You take care of your illness, I will take you there when the time comes," Zhu Jianshen took her hand, rubbed it in the palm of his hand, and said with a straight face: "I have worked hard for more than 20 years, and I still can't enjoy it?" ”

Zhen'er couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "Of course you can, the emperor has worked hard for the country, and it is natural to relax." ”

It's a pity... I can't go with you...... Zhen'er added in her heart.

"Your Majesty... Can the concubine ask you for one thing? ”

"Just say, ten, hundred, nothing is allowed."

"You say yes first."

"Yes, I promise." This time, Zhu Jianshen was very refreshing.

Zhen'er said softly: "The concubine wants Wang Zhi to enter the palace, and when the concubine is well, let him go back to Zhongguan Village, okay?" ”

"Hmm...... All right. Zhu Jianshen nodded lightly.

"Your Majesty."

"If you want to thank me, just take care of your body quickly, I'm still in a hurry to go to Jiangnan to have a look."

Zhen'er was silent and said, "The emperor can also take Sister Shufei there." ”

Zhu Jianshen was displeased: "You don't want to be with me?" ”

"Think, how can you not want to." Zhen'er was bitter in her heart, but there was a smile on her face, "It's just ...... The emperor is not in a hurry. ”

"It's good to know that I'm in a hurry, and I'll get better soon."

"yes, okay." Zhen'a nodded tiredly.

Seeing this, Zhu Jianshen put down her hand and said softly: "You can rest first, and I will come to see you later." ”

"Hmm... The emperor walked slowly. ”

Looking at the back of the emperor's husband, Zhen'er couldn't help but wet her eyes and murmured, "Really...... It's so reluctant. ”

Zhu Jianshen exhaled a depressed breath and went to Changle Palace instead......

"Father, it's me, see the depths!" Zhu Jianshen said loudly to Zhu Qizhen.

Zhu Qizhen was not only confused, but also a little deaf, he didn't speak loudly, he couldn't hear at all.

"Father, Father......"

After shouting several times in succession, Zhu Qizhen's cloudy eyes regained a little clarity, nodded and said, "It's deep, come and sit." ”

Pulling his son to sit down, he said with a smile: "You did a good job, you are cleaning up the bureaucratic redundancy, and you are changing the land and returning to the stream. ”

Zhu Jianshen was helpless and bitter, his eyes were slightly moist, and he said loudly: "I won, I have won the war a long time ago, and what you said has been many years." ”

"It's been a long time...... Zhu Qizhen repeated, and after a while, he asked, "What year is this year?" ”

"It's been twenty-two years since Chenghua." Zhu Jianshen said, seeing that his father did not react, he repeated it loudly.

"It's been twenty-two years since Chenghua...... Zhu Qizhen counted with his fingers and said, "Youzhu is married, right?" ”

"Not yet, but soon."

Zhu Qizhen nodded, and said in pieces, "Wanqing's child has not been married for a few years......"

"Father, what did you say?" Zhu Jianshen didn't hear his father's broken thoughts clearly.

Zhu Qizhen didn't answer, and said: "Official business is important, I'm all good, let's go and get busy with state affairs." ”

"I'm not busy now." Zhu Jianshen said loudly: "Our Ming Dynasty is peaceful and peaceful, and this year's natural disasters are much less than last year, and Youzhu can also bear some burdens." ”

"Okay, okay," Zhu Qizhen nodded with relief, and asked uneasily, "Really not busy?" ”

"Well, not busy!"

"That's... Let's have two drinks with my father. Zhu Qizhen smiled and said, "It's been a long time, I haven't drunk for a long time." ”

Zhu Jianshen couldn't bear to refuse, nodded and said, "Okay, Erchen will drink with you, someone will come ......"

"Call Li Qing." Zhu Qizhen added, "People have contributed to our Zhu family. ”

"Father, he's not in Jingshi, he's not in Daming."

"No," Zhu Qizhen was a little disappointed, and then smiled again: "Then let's drink." ”

"Hey, okay."

Zhu Jianshen helped him sit down, and said to the slave who came in, "Quickly prepare the imperial meal and wine." ”

"Yes......" The little eunuch paused, hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, the Imperial Doctor said, the Imperial Emperor ......"

"Go and prepare."

"Yes, slave and maid." The little eunuch didn't dare to force it any longer, so he hurriedly bowed and hurried away.

~

This is the first time the two of them have drunk seriously.

After decades of separation, and then reunited, the young child is already a mature and stable tomorrow, but the former tomorrow is no longer high-spirited.

Before that, the two fathers and sons didn't know each other at all, and they couldn't even recognize each other when they got together on the street.

Although after Zhu Qizhen returned, the two fathers and sons got acquainted with each other, but they rarely talked heart-to-heart, and occasionally talked, most of them were superficial and superficial.

Today, it is rare for father and son to have a heart-to-heart relationship.

"Father, my son respects you." Zhu Jianshen raised his glass.

Zhu Qizhen raised his glass and touched his son, and he was bored with a sip of his neck, Xu was in a hurry, he coughed lightly for a while, and his face was slightly red.

"Father, you ......"

"It's okay, it's okay...... Zhu Qizhen waved his hand, "It's full." ”

The little eunuch lifted the wine jug, looked at Zhu Jianshen, and asked with his eyes.

Zhu Jianshen bowed slightly.

Only then did the little eunuch pour the wine with confidence.

Zhu Qizhen picked up the wine glass and said, "This glass of wine, my father respects you." ”

"This can't be helped," Zhu Jianshen said busily, "How can there be a reason for a father to respect a son?" Erchen can't afford it. ”

"You deserve it, you deserve it!" Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but say, touched the cup with him, and took another sip.

After two glasses of wine, his face turned a little redder, "Full." ”

The little eunuch poured wine.

Zhu Qizhen sighed lightly, "Actually, my father wants to be a good emperor, and he also has the opportunity to be a good emperor, but what ...... It's not good! ”

"You are very competitive, stronger than me, more capable than me, and more capable than me...... Zhu Qizhen chuckled: "Compared to your grandfather, you are also more than that, father...... My father is a useless person, he almost mistook the country and harmed the people, I'm sorry for Emperor Xuanzong, I'm sorry for the ancestors! ”

"Father, don't say that." Zhu Jianshen comforted, "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, besides, that time...... The losses of the Ming army were not too large, and the Tatar losses were not small, and the Mobei grassland had today's situation, and the factors of that battle were very large. ”

Zhu Qizhen smiled bitterly: "The battle was like that, it was not for my father's work, it was the British Gong Zhang Fu who was in danger, and it was Li Qing who came all the way to save the scene in time, if it wasn't for their desperate efforts to save it, my Ming Dynasty would ...... It was going to be a big mess. ”

"My father is the king, they are the ministers, and their work is the work of my father." Zhu Jianshen made up for his father.

Whether he stands in the position of his son or the position of the emperor, Zhu Jianshen must retain the face of his father, which is politically correct.

Zhu Qizhen didn't care, face or something was insignificant in his heart.

"Come, Father will toast you again."

"Son, respect you."

"Ding~"

Father and son drank it all in one go, their movements synchronized.

Putting down the wine glass, Zhu Qizhen said ashamedly: "My father is not a good emperor, nor is he a good father, and he has not fulfilled his responsibilities as a father, and he has ...... those years I'm sorry for you.

Father's ...... I'm sorry for you. ”

"Father's words are serious." Zhu Jianshen hurriedly said, "Erchen is not bitter, second uncle is ...... He is a very good person, he invited a good teacher for his son, and he has never treated his son badly in life. ”

Zhu Qizhen was stunned, and his vicissitudes of life became more and more cloudy, "Yes, he is a kind person, I am involved in him, and I am sorry for him, I have not fulfilled my responsibilities as a brother......"

He picked up the wine glass, spilled it on the ground, and said, "Second brother, it's all my brother's fault, another day, the eldest brother will go to see you." ”

"Father's ......"

"It's okay," Zhu Qizhen raised his sleeves and wiped the corners of his eyes, "Let's two of you, this is the first time you have drunk and talked to each other, this is just the beginning, and my father has a good amount of alcohol." ”

"Father's massive ......"

Jiaozhi, the palace of the Han Dynasty.

"Are you sure that's it?" Zhu Qijin said uneasily, "This king thinks that it is better to be stable and stable." ”

"......" Li Qing said patiently: "Gao Xu's child, I grew up watching, I will not pit his descendants, don't worry, your foundation is solid." ”

After a pause, "Besides, I'll come back in a few years, and we're not a one-shot deal, what are you afraid of?" ”

Zhu Qijin thought about it for a while, and said in a muffled voice: "Then it's done, let's say it first, if you want to break your promise, don't blame me for raising prices." ”

"Don't worry, I'm a man who says what he says, and I never break my word!"
