April day, early summer is coming.

Finally, I can change into thin clothes, and I don't have to wear more than one piece at a time...... Before dawn, Zhu Youzhu got up, and Zhang helped him dress.

On the side, the personal eunuch brought mountain spring water for washing, and the toothbrush was placed with uniform salt grains.

"How many vassal kings are there?" Zhu Youzhu looked in the mirror and asked his wife to arrange his collar for himself, while asking.

"Back to the emperor, as of yesterday, there have been a total of thirty-eight vassal kings." The eunuch replied respectfully, "Oh yes, King Xing has also arrived." ”

The eunuch knew that the emperor had a special preference for this younger brother, so he mentioned it more.

Sure enough, Zhu Youzhu said, "King Xing is here, go to the Ten Princes' Mansion, and let him enter the palace after the early dynasty is dispersed." ”

"Yes, slave and maid." The eunuch answered, and took two steps forward to get the best Longjing tea and toothbrush.

Zhu Youzhu took the gargle and began to clean his teeth.

On the side, Empress Zhang snorted: "The emperor treats King Xing the most, but he actually came to coax him along, it's really ...... Feed undercooked. ”

Zhu Youzhu was brushing his teeth, speechless, and glared at her fiercely.

Seeing this, the eunuch retreated a little farther away.

Empress Zhang was still not angry, and said sullenly: "Isn't it, when his son died early, you also deliberately asked people to go to condole, and rewarded a lot of things, and ......"

"Poof...... All right. Zhu Youzhu spat on his saliva, picked up the teacup and rinsed his mouth, and then said, "He also has a hard time, if he doesn't come, he will definitely be squeezed out by the royal clans in the future, and it is not his wish to come to Beijing." ”

"Your Majesty, you are a gentleman, but he may not be a gentleman!" Empress Zhang felt unworthy for her man.

Zhu Youzhu smiled and said: "Youqi is the most quiet, he doesn't like fame and fortune, and he doesn't like to compete for anything, he just came to make up a number of people, and he won't take the lead in embarrassing me." ”

"Hmph, whatever you want." Empress Zhang stomped her feet in hatred and turned around and went to the inner hall.

Zhu Youzhu was used to his daughter-in-law's presumptuousness, but he was not angry, smiled lightly, and said to himself: "Alas, it's time to go to court again." ”

The eunuch in the distance hurriedly stepped forward and hugged him, but he felt that the emperor's arm was heavier......

~

After the early dynasty dispersed.

Zhu Youzhu postponed the review and took his son to meet Zhu Youqi in the front hall.

I haven't seen each other for many years, and the brothers don't know each other so well, but they still have feelings.

"Long live the emperor, long live the prince."

"Flat." Zhu Youzhu raised his chin slightly, and the eunuch immediately sent a chair.

Zhu Youqi sat down and explained: "Your Majesty, the minister came this time, and he was forced to come, about the matter of Tian Fu, the minister and brother agreed in their hearts, but if they really didn't come alone...... Alas...... The emperor can rest assured, and the courtiers will make a head, and will never let you be embarrassed. ”

"Okay, okay, I don't need to explain this, I understand." Zhu Youzhu took a breath and asked, "Is there a Tianding in the palace, and can the princess be pregnant again?" ”

Zhu Youqi shook his head slightly, "The year before last, Princess Fang gave birth to a daughter. ”

"Well..., I know this, you're not too small, but you have to work hard." Zhu Youzhu quipped.

"Yes, my brother obeys." Zhu Youqi smiled bitterly and nodded, but his eyes were gloomy.

After the death of the eldest son, one was a daughter, and the other was still a daughter, and now they are all in the age of standing, and it is false to say that there is no hurry, but this matter does not mean that it is just hard work.

If you are anxious to give birth to a daughter, you are anxious to give birth to a daughter, and the people's families still pay attention to the succession, not to mention......

He really has a throne inheritance in his family!

Zhu Houzhao is not familiar with this Uncle Wang, but seeing him so supportive of the New Deal, he can't help but have a good feeling.

"Uncle Xingwang doesn't have to be discouraged, if you take another side concubine, maybe it will be done?"

"Uh-he-he-he......" Zhu Youqi sneered.

Zhu Youzhu glared at his son angrily, "What are you talking about?" ”

"......" Zhu Houzhao was speechless: I shouldn't have come.

Uh..., in fact, the prince is right...... Zhu Youqi was embarrassed to say, so he changed the topic.

The vassal king can take a concubine, but it must be allowed by the imperial court, of course, not that there cannot be many women, but that illegitimate children do not inherit the power of the prince.

It must have been born to a registered concubine!

…

After chatting for half an hour, Zhu Youzhu got up and said:

"There are a lot of vassal kings in the Ming Dynasty, so let's entertain you first, and the ones who will come later...... Let's wait until we have it together. ”

He didn't want to face all the clan relatives at once, it was better to come part of them and not have much pressure.

"I'm going to have a banquet tomorrow, I'm coming!" Zhu Youzhu said.

Eating and drinking at a banquet has been the case for thousands of years, which is also the origin of the wine table culture, and the emperor can not be outside.

"Obey." Zhu Youqi leaned over and saluted, "Your Highness, Your Highness, the ministers are retiring." ”

Zhu Youzhu gave his son a look, Zhu Houzhao understood, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Uncle Xingwang, I'll send you." ”

"Huh? But you can't help it, you are the prince......"

"What's polite to the eldest nephew?" Zhu Houzhao said with a smile, "I have nothing to do, I also miss a group of uncles and princes." ”

Zhu Youqi nodded slowly: "In this way, then Uncle Wang will be presumptuous." ”

"Don't be so online, it's all a family." Zhu Houzhao hippie smile......

The uncle and nephew came all the way to the Ten Princes' Mansion, and the vassal kings were already looking forward to it, but when they saw that the prince was also coming, it was not good to suppress the urgency in their hearts and greet them one by one.

"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince......"

"Family, all family, you're welcome." Zhu Houzhao said affectionately, "Ming'er, my father and the emperor will hold a banquet in the palace, and now my prince will hold a banquet in the palace, so let's take the wind for the elders first?" ”

"Oops...... The prince is polite. ”

When the vassal kings saw this, they couldn't help but feel good.

Only King Ning in the distance sneered in his heart: This wolf cub is not a good person, there are times when you cry.

Hongzhi started too quickly, his front foot was sparse, and Hongzhi issued an edict on the back foot, Zhu Chenhao knew that this matter would cause great turmoil, and he, the 'initiator', could not avoid it, so he did not return to the south. Proper.

As soon as the vassal kings came, he smiled and tried his best to curry favor.

Rao is like this, he is still isolated, none of the vassal kings gave him a good face, and there was even an old vassal king who was higher than him, and he scolded him directly, and he almost didn't have a big ear scraper to slap him.

Fortunately, he is too old to outrun him.

Zhu Chenhao felt bitter, but he couldn't tell it.

Who let him be held by the handle?

Without preparing in advance, the meal is not very rich, but no one cares about this, what is needed is an attitude.

Seeing the prince like this, he knew that there was probably a drama.

"Hey, boy, you go aside."

As soon as Zhu Chenhao sat down, his head was slapped in the face, he looked up, and saw that it was the old vassal king of the five elements of gold, and he lowered his head and got up to give way.

However, he was not welcome at the other table, and Yiwang Zhu Youbin, relying on his close blood relationship with the emperor, kicked him in the chair.

Zhu Chenhao was so hung that he fell and squatted, and the vassal kings laughed, and his face was blushing.

Seeing this, Zhu Houzhao said in a round game: "Uncle Yiwang, it's okay to joke, but don't go too far, King Renning is still an elder." ”

Even if he wants to unload the mill and kill the donkey, but the mill has not been unloaded, Zhu Houzhao doesn't want to force King Ning in a hurry, and it will be a big deal.

"What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is, Uncle Ning, it's just me who is wrong, and you can punish you with three glasses of wine later." Yiwang said with a smile.

The other vassal kings also coaxed, "King Ning, where is three cups enough, one jar!" ”

"Yes, yes, a jar."

"Huh...... No problem. Zhu Chenhao knew that he was angry, and he didn't dare to express his dissatisfaction, so he sat down with a smile.

It is true that he is the prince of the Ming Dynasty, but who of you here is not?

No one is used to him!

"Come on, come on, drink, drink......"

Big things are not as good as drinking, or in other words, the more important the matter, the more you have to use wine to promote the conversation, and when people are dizzy, it is the best time to talk about things.

The prince appreciated his face so much, and the vassal kings would not be disappointed, and everyone frequently raised their glasses and drank hotly.

Don't look at Zhu Houzhao's lowest seniority, but he is the crown prince, and even the old vassal king with the five elements of gold has to be careful.

No way, people are going to be emperors in the future!

The young man has a good physique, and Zhu Houzhao, who loves activities, is particularly strong, although he blushed after drinking a few cups, but he only blushed when he drank again.

He was still young, and no one dared to actually pour him wine, after all...... The emperor is such a son, if he really wants to have a good one, he will never go crazy.

However, King Ning is different.

Everyone gritted their teeth with hatred for him, and almost no one broke his mouth, and one poured wine into it, and he was poured under the table less than two quarters of an hour after the banquet began.

The little eunuch who was waiting next to him wanted to help King Ning go back to his room, but was blocked by several vassal kings, and Zhu Chenhao fell asleep under the table.

Not to mention, I slept quite soundly, and I snorted non-stop.

The kick made the snoring quieter, but soon it became louder again.

As a result, several vassal kings kicked without kicking, but the lower foot was not heavy.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.

There are also more words, Zhu Houzhao has a hand in enlivening the atmosphere, and the vassal kings also have the intention of befriending the prince, which can be described as a group of harmony.

Zhu Houzhao took advantage of the atmosphere to express Zong Lu's eternal idea.

As soon as these words came out, all the vassal kings woke up one after another, and their faces were extremely ugly.

The lively atmosphere suddenly stiffened, and the cold was extreme, and no one spoke.

Seeing this, Zhu Houzhao smiled and said: "This is a speech official, my father directly rejected it, it is all his own family, how can it be so?" ”

Hearing this, the vassal kings relaxed, but they also lost the harmony they had just now.

The king of a vassal slapped the table heavily and snorted: "Speech officials, words are not guilty, but there are always some speech officials who chew their tongues, it is really excessive, they just rely on the emperor's virtue like heaven and treat people generously, so they are unscrupulous." ”

"That's it, if you have nothing to do, you love to be forced to be blind, and you will be separated from our clan and family, and your heart can be punished!"

"A group of guys who kick their noses and faces, the emperor just treats them too well."

The vassal kings were furious, and they longed to find the official and tear his mouth apart.

At the same time, I was terrified.

If that's the case, the children and grandchildren will suffer old sins.

Zhu Houzhao had no face and no skin, he also scolded a few words, and at the end, he vaguely mentioned Tian Fu's matter, but it was only a brushstroke, and then persuaded the wine.

However, after this trouble, the vassal kings lost their interest in drinking, and they were in a heavy mood.

That's what Zhu Houzhao wants, first talk about lifting the roof, and then talk about opening the window.

Compromise, enduring!
