Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 220 Birthday
December 29st, 22th year of Hongwu was Zhu Xiongying's [-]nd birthday, and the palace was full of joy.This is not just for the new king who is about to ascend the throne, but also because Lao Zhu is in a good mood.

Seeing the eldest grandson coming with his wife, concubine and children, Lao Zhu sat in the first place in court clothes, looking at his grandson with a smile.

Zhu Yunying held her son's little hand, while Xu Miaoqing hugged Zhu Ruyi, who was the nominal mother of all Zhu Yunying's children.Lian Qiongqiong and Wang's naturally follow behind, and their status is naturally lower, but this kind of thing is not only in the royal family, but also in ordinary people.

Zhu Yunying looked at Lao Zhu with a smile, and slowly knelt down, "Grandson Xiongying, his wife Miaoqing, son Zhu Wenyin, and daughter Zhu Ruyi kowtow to grandpa."

Little Zhu was nimble, and immediately lay down on the ground, his movements were so smooth, even faster than Zhu Yunying.

Old Zhu laughed heartily, looked at Zhu Wenyin who was lying on the ground, and said with a smile, "This naughty bastard is as lazy as you when you were young, and you don't kneel down properly. Every time you lie down there, what does it look like!"

Zhu Xiongying didn't answer the words, but bowed respectfully to Lao Zhu.

The relieved old Zhu raised his hand and said, "Get up, it's Ying'er's birthday, let's eat together, there are no rules."

Only then did Zhu Yunying stand up, and picked up Zhu Wenyin who was lying on the ground by the way, "This child is different from me. I only lay down on the ground when I had something to ask for. This child, he gave his great-grandfather a blow at every opportunity." .”

Old Zhu was even happier. He looked at little Zhu and said, "Then our great-grandson is more filial than you. You are thoughtful. Our great-grandson is pure filial piety!"

Zhu Yunying was also happy, but Lao Zhu must have exaggerated.It's just that in the eyes of Lao Zhu, of course, he is looking for some excuses and reasons for his descendants. In his eyes, he can only see the outstanding performance of his descendants.

Zhu Yunying hugged Zhu Ruyi and sat down, and said to Lian Qiongqiong and Wang Shi, "I won't let outsiders take care of it today, you should watch it. Don't let other people interfere in the family banquet."

Lian Qiongqiong and the others naturally agreed in haste, not to mention that Emperor Zhu was here.Even if it is normal, they often have no place at the family banquet, and it is normal to wait by the side.

Old Zhu patted his thigh, and said to Little Zhu, "Come to Grandpa Gao, we'll take you to drink."

Little Zhu immediately climbed onto Old Zhu's lap and sat down. Little Zhu looked at Old Zhu happily, hugged Old Zhu intimately, and kissed him first.

Old Zhu was even happier, and the more he looked at Xiao Zhu, the more he liked him, "Just like your father, your father was such a rascal when he was young. He is the most shameless, and he doesn't like it if he doesn't kiss us every day."

"Grandpa, this is wronging my grandson." Zhu Yunying was not happy, and said, "When I was young, I only liked to stick my face. If I was not very happy, I wouldn't kiss."

Old Zhu didn't think so, he said, "You didn't remember anything at that time, we remember. Your grandmother was there at that time, someday you would let us and your grandmother stick to your cheeks, and if we didn't agree, you would cry .Your grandmother said that you are a descendant of the old Zhu family, and you will remember the old Zhu family."

Although it is a bit exaggerated, Zhu Yunying still remembers his childhood, after all, he is different from ordinary children.When he was a child, he thought that he was indeed a good at currying favor and showing off his cuteness, and his grandpa and grandma were coaxed into being extremely happy.

Little Zhu remembered, turned around and said to Old Zhu, "Grandfather Gao, I am Daddy's son."

There is no need to emphasize it, but Lao Zhu is very happy, "Yes, Yin'er is your father's son, and he is most like your father!"

"I'm not like my father!" Xiao Zhu was unhappy, and jumped up all of a sudden, touching Lao Zhu's face with one hand and grabbing his own cheek with the other, "I am most like my great-grandfather."

It's not like, Zhu Yunying thinks it's not.Little Zhu's appearance is also delicate and cute, with a slightly pointed chin. Even if she is a little baby fat now, she can tell the meaning of her oval face.Lao Zhu has a Chinese face, but his appearance is more majestic.

But Lao Zhu is happy, the more he looks at it, the more he feels that his great-grandson looks like him.And the little guy is chubby now, and Lao Zhu also likes to hug Xiao Zhu the most, and pinch Xiao Xiao Zhu's chubby face or belly.Little Zhu also likes to run to Lao Zhu after peeing, which is a bad habit.

Old Zhu likes it. He used to like to let his grandson walk the bird, even if his grandson was not very happy, but Lao Zhu took the opportunity to let Xiao Zhu show it.Open crotch pants, Xiao Zhu didn't like to wear them when she was a child.Sometimes Lao Zhu expressed his closeness to the ministers, and Xiao Xiaozhu took off his pants for Lao Zhu even if he didn't feel like peeing, and just booed in the hall, dripping two drops.

Zhu Yunying felt ashamed, it was an unbearable past.It's just a little numb, but fortunately, I haven't had such an experience since I was three years old.It's just that there are some psychological shadows to some extent, who made him a child in everyone's eyes.

But little Zhu is different, he is simply a bird-walking maniac, because this child's subconscious is that his great-grandfather likes these things.Even his mother likes to see him running around in crotch pants.Occasionally, there were two big banquets, and when Lao Zhu made a move, little Zhu would pout his stomach and pee.

There is no way, in this age, the heirs are extremely important.Especially the royal family, princes, and heirs also affect their political status.Walking the bird is also a declaration of status, like many people prove that the Tianjia inheritance is orderly.

At this time, Lian Qiongqiong and others also took over the food boxes from the maids and eunuchs, and began to serve dishes under Xu Miaoqing's command.

Before the dishes were served, Xiao Zhu lined up three wine glasses, first poured three glasses of wine, got up slowly, poured one glass after another on the ground, and muttered words.Lao Zhu just watched with a smile and didn't say much.Xu Miaoqing, who didn't understand at first, hurriedly stood up, and Lian Qiongqiong and the others quickly knelt down.

Lao Zhu waved his hand and said, "It's okay, there is no such rule, you should eat less with us."

Zhu Xiongying also said with a smile at this time, "It's not like this on weekdays, you should relax too. Eat what you should eat and drink what you should drink. We eat well and grow well. Grandma and parents are happy after seeing it. "

Old Zhu laughed too, and said, "When we're gone, I'll pour you another glass of wine."

Zhu Yunying became unhappy, and complained dissatisfiedly, "Grandpa, this is my grandson's birthday. I thought it was just a family feast for our old Zhu's family, not Tian's family."

Old Zhu laughed out loud, and quickly said, "Succeed, grandpa made a mistake, let's have a drink, grandpa and grandson."

Zhu Yunying immediately picked up the wine glass and clinked a glass with Lao Zhu.Little Zhu, who was sitting on Lao Zhu's lap, raised his head and opened his mouth, but not a single drop of wine fell into his mouth, the little alcoholic was just fooling around.

Lao Zhu put down his wine glass contentedly, and said, "Ying'er, you will be enthroned in a while."

Zhu Yunying became even more unhappy, and quickly said, "If this is the case, then the grandson will be called the emperor's grandfather. Whether it is the emperor's grandfather or the grandfather, you choose yourself!"

Lao Zhu touched the wine glass, thought for a while and said, "We'll still call him grandpa, so it sounds close."

It can be regarded as a happy meal while eating, Lao Zhu also intentionally let go of some airs at this time.It was mainly for Xu Miaoqing's consideration, and worried that people like Lian Qiongqiong would feel uncomfortable.As for Zhu Yunying and little Zhu, they didn't care about these things. Zhu Ruyi, who didn't understand anything, fell asleep, and babies were lethargic.

After the family banquet, Zhu Yunying accompanied Lao Zhu around the East Palace, pointed to the East Palace which was still under renovation, and briefly introduced the situation.

Lao Zhu remembered at this moment, and reminded, "Ying'er, it's your birthday today, are you really not going to summon the officials?"

"It's really inappropriate at this time of year." Zhu Yunying said with a smile, and said sincerely, "The grandson is staying with grandpa in the palace today, and we are with our own family. The grandson also let Yunxi know how to say, The younger brother and younger sister in Beijing will come here together at night. As the eldest brother, the grandson should be congratulated by the younger siblings."

Lao Zhu immediately smiled, and quickly praised, "This is a good thing, you brothers should move around more."

"Grandson is determined to be cruel. The emperor and the others want to come here, but grandson refuses to agree at all, and grandson becomes arrogant." Zhu Yunying joked with a smile, "Siblings and sisters who are eight years old can be picked up. In the evening, the imperial confinement will also be later. Those who are willing to stay in the palace will be in the palace, and those who are not will be sent back."

Old Zhu frowned slightly, and then said, "It's better not to miss the palace ban, it's not good to let them spend the night in the palace, there are too many people."

Hearing what Lao Zhu said, Zhu Xiongying naturally had no choice but to agree.There is nothing wrong with Lao Zhu's thinking this way. After all, there are many rules in the palace. It is obviously not harmful to pay more attention to these things, and you should be more cautious.

Zhu Yunying continued, "Grandson is thinking, I'm afraid I won't be able to be so comfortable on my grandson's birthday in the future. It just so happens that my grandmother has also returned to Yingtian Mansion, and tomorrow my grandson will go to sit there. From now on, my grandson will not only belong to my grandmother. grandson."

Old Zhu also understood Zhu Yunying's thoughts, and said, "That's the reason, you can go over and sit around. Your mother should be happy when she sees it."

This should be Zhu Yunying's 'last birthday' before he ascended the throne, and Zhu Yunying's birthday in the future will be a major event for the court.At that time, it is necessary to celebrate with the officials in the main hall and accept the worship of all officials.

It just so happens that Zhu Yunying is also avoiding taboos in the East Palace now, so it can be said that she is relatively free during this period.Going out for a walk at this time can be regarded as a little time.

Accompanying Lao Zhu to walk around and celebrate birthdays with the closest people, Zhu Yunying thinks this is also pretty good.As for the next thing, don't think about it for now, and spend your birthday well, which can be regarded as a little fun and enjoyment for Zhu Yunying.

Although Zhu Yunying also understands that with his current status and in this sensitive season, many people are watching his birthday.But anyway, when it's time to celebrate, there's a need to celebrate, and that's okay!
