The daily life of the great grandson of Ming Dynasty

Zhu Di and Zhu Zhanji left after Princess Yongkang's full moon ceremony.

Before leaving, Empress Xu was very reluctant to part with Zhu Di and Zhu Zhanji, especially Zhu Zhanji.

Zhu Zhanji was raised by Empress Xu after he was born, and Zhu Zhanji has hardly been separated from Empress Xu in the past five years.The last time we separated, Zhu Zhanji came to Nanjing to look for Zhu Di in advance, and we separated for a month or two at that time.This separation may take several months, maybe even a year, which makes Empress Xu very sad.

Empress Xu didn't want Zhu Zhanji to go to Beijing with Zhu Di, but she knew Zhu Di's deep meaning of taking Zhu Zhanji to Beijing, so she couldn't stop it, but agreed to Zhu Zhanji to follow Zhu Di to Beijing.

At this moment, Empress Xu was telling Zhu Zhanji, and she said some things over and over again. Zhu Zhanji didn't get annoyed after listening, and listened very patiently and seriously.

"Grandmother, Beijing is our home. I am going home, so don't worry." Living in Nanjing this year made Zhu Zhanji miss his life in Beijing even more.Compared with Nanjing, Zhu Zhanji still prefers Beijing.

"You're not by my side, how can I rest assured." Empress Xu can't wait to go back to Beijing with Zhu Zhanji and the others, but as a queen, she has to sit in the harem and must not let there be chaos in the palace. "Your grandpa doesn't know how to take care of people."

"Grandmother, I don't need grandpa to take care of me. I can take care of myself." Zhu Zhanji patted his chest and said to Empress Xu, "Besides, aren't there still many old people in Yanwang's mansion? You can take good care of me, so don't worry."

"Zhanji, you are still young. When you arrive in Beijing, you should stay in Beijing well. Don't go to the desert with your grandpa." Empress Xu knew in her heart that Zhu Di took Zhu Zhanji to Beijing, and it was impossible to stay in Beijing honestly. If you are in the city, you will definitely go to the desert.Empress Xu worried that it would be dangerous for Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Di to go to the desert.Furthermore, the climate in the desert is not good, not only is there a lot of wind and sand, but it is also extremely cold. Empress Xu worried that Zhu Zhanji would get sick if he went to the desert.

"Okay, I won't run around with Grandpa Huang." This is impossible.Grandpa Huang took him to Beijing, and another purpose was to take him to the desert to see the power of Beiyuan.He also knew in his heart that Empress Xu knew about this matter, but she still pretended to be obedient and complied.

"Promise the emperor's grandmother to come back intact."

"Don't worry, grandma, grandpa and I will return safely."

Empress Xu explained a few more words, and then asked Zhu Zhanji to go to Zhang Mingzhen.

Zhang Mingzhen was more reluctant to part with Zhu Zhanji than Queen Xu, but she knew that she could not object to Zhu Zhanji's going to Beijing with him.

Zhu Zhanji listened patiently to his mother's explanation.Zhang Mingzhen's instructions were even more verbose than Queen Xu's.

Since Zhu Zhanji was taken away by the assassin before, Zhang Mingzhen was very nervous about him, for fear that he would be taken away by the assassin again by accident, or that something might happen to Zhu Zhanji.

Zhang Mingzhen knew that Zhu Zhanji would be in great danger following Zhu Di back to Beijing.She was reluctant and unwilling, but her objection was useless, and she could only watch her son follow him to Beijing.

Zhu Zhanji's eyes turned red after seeing Zhang Mingzhen's confession, he raised his hand and touched his mother's face, comforting her softly: "Mother, I will be fine, I will come back safe and sound .”

Zhang Mingzhen reached out and hugged Zhu Zhanji tightly in his arms: "Zhanji, you must come back safely."

Zhu Zhanji raised his hand and patted Zhang Mingzhen's back, "Mother, just wait for me to come back with peace of mind."

Zhang Mingzhen didn't say anything else, and asked Xiangse to bring the things she had prepared to Zhu Zhanji.

"This is some luggage that my mother packed for you. You take it with you." Zhang Mingzhen didn't prepare too many things, but just packed a small package for Zhu Zhanji.

Chen Wu took the burden from Xiang Se, and then stepped aside.

"Remember to write letters to mother often."

"I will write a letter to my mother in seven days."

Zhang Mingzhen gave a few more instructions, and then let Zhu Zhanji go to see Zhu Gaochi.

After Zhu Zhanji left, Zhang Mingzhen couldn't help shedding tears anymore.

Seeing this, Xiang Se hurriedly comforted him: "Crown Princess, Your Highness is going to Beijing with the Emperor, the people around the Emperor will definitely take good care of His Highness, don't worry

. "

"I know, I just can't bear it, I'm just afraid..." Zhang Mingzhen was afraid that Zhu Zhanji would be kidnapped by the assassins of the White Lotus Sect on the way to Beijing.

"Crown Princess, you know in your heart the purpose of the emperor taking his highness to Beijing. You can't worry too much, or the emperor will misunderstand."

Zhang Mingzhen wiped away tears, nodded slightly and said, "You're right." Sometimes, Zhang Mingzhen hoped that Zhu Zhanji was an ordinary child, so that he wouldn't have to bear so much. "Xianse, Zhanji grows up, and I feel more and more uneasy."

Xiang Se understood what Zhang Mingzhen was thinking, and comforted her: "Crown Princess, Your Highness is not an ordinary person, but the emperor's favorite grandson, who is entrusted with important tasks by the emperor." After finishing speaking, she said again, " Your Highness was born with heavy responsibilities, and as His Highness grows up, the Emperor will value His Highness more and more, and teach His Highness more and more, you have to be careful."

"I know..." Zhang Mingzhen knew it in her heart, but as a mother, she really felt sorry for her son.

"Crown princess, this is just the beginning, you have to get used to it." The emperor taking his highness to Beijing is just the beginning of everything, and there will be more and more things like this in the future. "You feel sorry for His Highness, but His Highness is very happy."

Mentioning this matter, Zhang Mingzhen smiled helplessly: "You are right, Zhanji is very happy to go to Beijing with the emperor, we are in vain to worry about him."

Xiang Se said: "Crown Princess, Your Highness is not an ordinary person."

"Hey, as long as he is happy." Zhang Mingzhen thought helplessly in her heart that no matter how much she worried about it, it would be useless.

In the East Palace Study, Zhu Gaochi didn't babble endlessly like Zhang Mingzhen.He just simply explained a few words, asking him to listen to Zhu Di carefully, telling him to pay attention to safety, and not to put himself in danger.

"Daddy, don't worry about me, you should worry about yourself." Zhu Zhanji glanced at Zhu Gaochi, "The emperor left, and left you to supervise the country. Supervising the country is not a small matter, but it is not as important as you were when you were in charge of the government. It's that simple." The prison he was talking about was Zhu Di sending troops back then, leaving Zhu Gaochi to supervise and manage Yan Wangfu.

Zhu Gaochi nodded slightly: "I understand in my heart."

"Daddy, Grandpa Huang is still not very satisfied with you. You, the prince of the prison country, have to be careful." Zhu Zhanji crossed his arms and said like a little adult, "Also, the second uncle and the third uncle will definitely make troubles." of."

"I know what you said." Zhu Gaochi knew very well that he was not easy to be the prince of the supervisory country.

"Second uncle and third uncle, I will keep an eye on them for you. If there is any news, I will send someone to notify you."

"Okay." With Zhu Zhanji beside Zhu Di staring at Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, Zhu Gaochi felt much more at ease.

"Father, Grandpa Huang is the emperor. You also know that you are an emperor. You are suspicious by nature. You have to be careful when you deal with political affairs. Don't let the second and third uncles catch pigtails." I have no doubts about him, but it's different for my father.

"Daddy understands." Seeing that his son was worried about him, Zhu Gaochi smiled at Zhu Zhanji comfortingly, "I know your daddy well, so don't worry too much."

Zhu Zhanji didn't say anything more.However, he was still not at ease with Zhu Gaochi.He knew that his father was smart, and he was as wise as a fool, but his father had a big shortcoming, that is, he believed too much in the "benevolence" of Confucianism.Sometimes being too kind is not a good thing.The most important thing is that his father's kindness sometimes angered Zhu Di.

To be precise, his father sometimes couldn't figure out the deep meaning behind it because of his kindness, and even mistakenly thought that the emperor's grandfather was sometimes too cold.

"Zhanji, father and mother are waiting for your safe return."

"Daddy, don't worry, I will come back well."

Zhu Gaochi didn't talk about political affairs anymore, but talked to Zhu Zhanji about the delicious food in Beijing. He asked Zhu Zhanji to help him taste Beijing's delicious food.

Zhu Zhanji is of course very happy with his father's entrustment.

After chatting with Zhu Gaochi for a while, Zhu Zhanji left.

After Zhu Zhanji left, Zhu Gaochi continued to discuss political affairs with Yang Pu and the others.

Yang Pu was specially given to Zhu Gaochi by Zhu Di, and asked him to assist Zhu Gaochi.

Although Zhu Di is not satisfied

Zhu Gaochi is the prince, but as the prince, Zhu Gaochi cannot be without someone to assist him.

Zhu Di went to Beijing this time and left Zhu Gaochi to supervise the country. Of course, he would not take all the courtiers away.He left some ministers to assist Zhu Gaochi in supervising the country, including Xie Jin.

Xie Jin was ordered to revise the book, and Zhu Di asked him to stay in the capital to continue to revise the book, and assisted Zhu Gaochi by the way.As for Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong, they will follow Zhu Di to Beijing.

As Zhu Zhanji's husband, Yang Shiqi will continue to teach Zhu Zhanji to read on the way to Beijing and after arriving in Beijing.

Before Zhu Zhanji left for Beijing, Zhu Gaosui took Princess Zhao into the palace to greet Empress Xu.

Some time ago, Princess Zhao was pregnant, but she never reported it.After waiting for three months, she said.Originally, she should have gone to the palace to find Zhu Zhanji, but she was ill some time ago.

Concubine Zhao injured her body when she gave birth to her daughter.It stands to reason that she needs to recuperate for two or three years before she becomes pregnant again, but she is anxious to give birth to Zhu Gaosui's son, regardless of her own body, and becomes pregnant again.

The main purpose of entering the palace this time was not to greet Empress Xu, but to confirm to Zhu Zhanji whether she was pregnant with a daughter or a son.

Zhu Gaosui and Princess Zhao asked Zhu Zhanji casually whether he wanted a cousin or a cousin.

Zhu Zhanji knew what Zhu Gaosui and the others were planning, but he pretended not to know, and pretended to be innocent and said that he missed his cousin.

When Zhu Gaosui and Princess Zhao heard that Zhu Zhanji said they wanted a cousin, they were of course very dissatisfied. Zhu Zhanji asked Zhu Zhanji to say it again, but Zhu Zhanji still said that he was a cousin, which made Zhu Gaosui and his wife look very ugly.

Zhu Zhanji knew that Zhu Gaosui and the others wanted a son wholeheartedly, and deliberately said they wanted a cousin.

Zhu Zhanji is very good at stabbing soft knives.

Zhu Gaosui and his wife entered the palace full of expectations, but Zhu Zhanji left the palace with a gloomy expression.

Empress Xu reached out and pinched Zhu Zhanji's little nose, and scolded with a smile: "Little villain, did you do it on purpose?"

Zhu Zhanji said innocently: "I don't, I just like my sister."

Empress Xu nodded Zhu Zhanji's forehead again: "You..."

Zhu Gaosui and Princess Zhao decided not to believe Zhu Zhanji's words. They firmly believed that this child was a son.

Two days later, Zhu Di left Nanjing with a mighty group of people and headed for Beijing.

At the same time, Zhu Gaoxu, who is far away in Yunnan, is also on his way to Beijing.
