Family ancestor Zhu Chongba: What happened to getting your daughter pregnant?

Chapter 124: Father’s kindness and grandson’s filial piety

Minghe Hall.

"I probably understand it, but I still have to play a game to fully understand its meaning."

"Come on, come on, play a game with me."

Listening to Zhu Yunxi's eloquent formula, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded thoughtfully and said impatiently.

"Grandpa Huang, the difference between this game and Go is that in order to win, the attacking side can capture the opponent's pieces and occupy the magpie's nest, so it should be called killing one game, not the next game."

Zhu Yunxi smiled and said slowly.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he realized something was wrong and knew that he was talking nonsense!

If you mention the word "kill" in front of the emperor, isn't that asking for death? !

Sure enough, after hearing Zhu Yunxi's words, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but pause!

Even Wang Defa next to him was shocked and broke into a cold sweat!

"What a kill!"

"Then let's kill a game with Grandpa Huang!"

But then, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but smiled and nodded, glanced at Zhu Yunxi meaningfully, and said impatiently, without getting angry.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's reaction, Zhu Yunxi and Wang Defa breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, the grandfather and grandson started to play chess. They were going back and forth with passion and enjoyment, and they even shouted a few words from time to time!

It seems that they have completely forgotten the difference between monarch and minister, and they really look like a pair of ordinary grandfather and grandson.

After a long time, the two finally ended their duel and stopped fighting.

But Zhu Yuanzhang was still enjoying it. He couldn't bear to leave his eyes from the chessboard, with a meaningful smile on his lips, and nodded frequently.

If it weren't for the fact that I was already feeling a little tired, I might have kept going.

Zhu Yunxi looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, whom he liked very much, and felt relieved, feeling that his gift was a good one.

Just like last time, this time he was completely victorious without any concession, leaving Zhu Yuanzhang completely defeated and left with only defense.

Such superb chess skills also filled Wang Defa's heart with admiration again.

"Your Majesty, you and Your Highness have been sleeping for several hours. It is almost sunset and you have missed lunch. Your Majesty, please pay attention to the dragon body."

Wang Defa hesitated for a moment, bowed and reminded in a low voice.

After hearing Wang Defa's words, the grandfather and grandson noticed that they had gone directly from daytime to evening, and the sun began to set in the west.

Because the two of them were too focused and Wang Defa didn't dare to interrupt easily, they didn't start reminding them until now.

"That's it for today, let's talk about it another day."

"If you didn't tell me, I didn't know that so much time had passed. I quickly ordered you to go down and prepare dinner. Yunxi will also have dinner at Minghe Hall tonight."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, shook his head, and warned hurriedly.

Wang Defa agreed with a smile and immediately notified the imperial kitchen to prepare dinner.

Of course Zhu Yunxi did not refuse, because in his heart, nothing was more important than making Zhu Yuanzhang happy.

"In the entire government and the public, you are the only one who dares not to give way to me in chess games!"

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Yunxi, who had a well-behaved face, and said with a smile.

Although it sounded like a reproach, the hint of appreciation and relief hidden between his brows could not be concealed at all.

"My grandson is too competitive. I hope the emperor will forgive my grandson for being disrespectful."

Zhu Yunxi smiled sheepishly and bowed.

"No, as the son of the Zhu family, I must have the confidence and momentum to compete with others! You did the right thing!"

"Do you think that those who always give in to me and coax me will definitely make me happy?"

"You do have some bravery in your body that your father doesn't have. In my opinion, you don't follow your father, but you are more like me!"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said seriously, his eyes full of approval.

"Thank you, Grandpa Huang, for your compliment!"

"But if my grandson can achieve one-tenth of the imperial grandfather's prowess, he will be satisfied."

Zhu Yunxi smiled, bowed, and said innocently.

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he couldn't help but nodded, with even more approval in his eyes.

Not long after, Wang Defa brought in the delicious food, and Zhu Yunxi accompanied Zhu Yuanzhang to enjoy the dinner.

When others accompanied Zhu Yuanzhang to eat, they only drank a little bit of water. They were not full at all, and they did not even dare to move their chopsticks. But Zhu Yunxi was different. He did not regard himself as an "outsider" at all. How he usually ate was indifferent in front of Zhu Yuanzhang. There is no convergence.

Perhaps it was because he was really hungry, and after a stormy meal, Zhu Yuanzhang was immediately entertained.

Perhaps Zhu Yuanzhang, who was used to following the rules, would feel even more special when he occasionally saw such a grandson.

After three drinks and five dishes, Zhu Yunxi put down his chopsticks with satisfaction, and even couldn't help but touch his bulging belly.

Seeing this scene, the smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's face became even stronger, and Wang Defa on the side couldn't help covering his mouth and snickering.

As someone who has served Zhu Yuanzhang for many years, this is the first time he has seen someone who dares to be so presumptuous in front of His Majesty, but His Majesty is not angry at all.

"Yunxi, I heard that your second brother has been working very hard to uncover the traitor hidden in the court recently. Although there has been no progress, at least he has put a lot of effort into this matter."

"How are you doing here? Have you found anything? Although the business of Hongwu Bookstore and Mixue Bingge is very good, you should also spend more time on business, am I right?"

After a slight hesitation, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly became serious, looked at Zhu Yunxi, and asked meaningfully.

"What the emperor said is true, but my grandson has not been lazy. He has been ordering Xiao Huan to lead the Jinwu Guards to investigate the matter secretly. Although there has been no progress, at least some courtiers have been eliminated."

"Given time, we will be able to uncover the traitor."

Zhu Yunxi also became serious, bowed his hands and said seriously.

"Well, that's very good. As long as you go about your business with peace of mind and make some achievements, you will naturally win people's hearts!"

"Until then, let me see who dares to say anything wrong about you again!"

After listening to Zhu Yunxi's words, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction and said in a deep voice.

"Grandpa Huang, don't worry, my grandson will definitely remember your teachings and will not disappoint you."

Zhu Yunxi nodded firmly and said sincerely.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled approvingly and said nothing more.

After the grandfather and grandson exchanged a few more pleasantries, Zhu Yunxi said goodbye to Zhu Yuanzhang and left the Minghe Hall.

He knew in his heart that since the Jinxiu Palace stopped attacking him and Zhu Yunwen ordered Li Jinglong to start secretly investigating the traitor with the Cavalry Guards, Zhu Yuanzhang's previous dissatisfaction and disappointment with Zhu Yunwen had begun to fade away.

It seemed that it was time for him to do something more.

...

Wandering Palace.

In the front hall, Hongyuan stood at the door, her eyes staring in the direction of the palace door, her face slightly solemn, as if she had been waiting for Zhu Yunxi's return.

However, Zhu Yunxi has never come back since he was summoned to the Minghe Hall. No one in the Liuli Palace knew what happened. It had never taken so long for His Highness to go to the Minghe Hall before.

"Sister Hong, you have been standing here for a long time, has something happened?"

At this time, Zi Ning slowly came closer, glanced in the direction of the palace gate, and asked worriedly.

"fine."

Hong Yuan didn't look sideways and answered casually, her eyes still staring in the direction of the palace gate.

But although she said it was okay, the look on her face was not that true. No one would believe that it was really okay.

"Your Highness has been here for so long. Is it possible that something really happened at Minghe Hall?"

Zi Ning couldn't help but frowned and said with some worry.

"Don't worry, if something really happened, the palace would not be so peaceful. There would have been commotion in the Jinxiu Palace."

Hongyuan glanced at Zi Ning, who had a worried face, and slowly comforted her.

The worries in her heart had nothing to do with Minghe Palace, but came from outside the palace.

After hearing Hong Yuan's comfort, Zi Ning felt a little relieved and nodded silently, but still chose to stay with Hong Yuan and wait for Zhu Yunxi's return.

At this moment, four figures suddenly appeared outside the palace gate, and Zhu Yunxi and Deng Chuan finally returned.

After seeing Zhu Yunxi appear, Hong Yuan and Zi Ning, who had been waiting in front of the palace gate, their eyes lit up at the same time...
