Zhu Di arrived at Yanwang Mansion at night, to be precise, at midnight.He came back so late, not because he didn't want to attract attention, nor did he come back secretly, but because he traveled all night.

Actually, according to his original itinerary, he should return to Beiping Mansion tomorrow morning, but in order to see Princess Yan and his precious grandson earlier, he rushed back overnight.

Zhu Di drove all day and midnight today, and hardly had any rest on the way.When I came back, the whole person was dusty.

Concubine Yan personally served Zhu Di to freshen up: "My lord, what are you in a hurry for? It won't be too late to come back tomorrow morning." Seeing Zhu Di rushing so anxiously and hard to get back to the mansion early, Concubine Yan felt very distressed.

"Princess, I am anxious to see you." After Zhu Di washed and washed, he stood up and carried Princess Yan into his arms.

Princess Yan hugged Zhu Di forcefully, raised her hand and patted Zhu Di's back lightly, her tone was very gentle: "My lord, I miss you very much too."

Zhu Di hugged Princess Yan for a while before letting go, then reached out and touched his wife's face, and said with distressed eyes: "Princess, you have lost weight."

Princess Yan also reached out and touched Zhu Di's face: "My lord, you have also lost weight, and you are much more tired and haggard."

"You see, I'm fine and I'm not injured." Zhu Di smiled at Princess Yan, "Everything is fine with me."

"It's good that you're not injured." Princess Yan lowered her head, not letting Zhu Di see her red eyes, "My lord, you're hungry, hurry up and eat something."

"No hurry, I will go to see Zhanji first." The reason why Zhu Di didn't go to see his grandson as soon as he returned to the mansion was because he was in a mess.Now I wash up and clean up, and I can go to see my grandson.

Princess Yan followed Zhu Di, and deliberately said in a pantothenic tone: "I knew it, my lord, you want Zhan Ji more."

"Princess, I miss you very much." Zhu Di also knew that Princess Yan was joking with him, "I haven't seen you for a few months, and I don't know if Zhanji still remembers me as a grandfather."

"Don't worry, Zhanji always remembers you as a grandfather, and often says he misses you. He is very happy to know that you are coming back."

In the past few months, Zhu Di and Princess Yan have been exchanging letters.In the letter, Princess Yan told Zhu Di about Zhu Zhanji's situation, such as how much Zhu Zhanji ate today, what he did, and what he said.

For Zhu Di who was fighting abroad, every time he received a letter from Princess Yan, it was a very happy thing.

Although he has not been by his grandson's side in the past few months, Princess Yan told him about Zhu Zhanji's situation in detail, which made him feel that he has been by his grandson's side all the time and has seen his grandson's growth.

"This kid has a conscience." Zhu Di really missed his grandson after being away for several months.

The nanny stood by Zhu Zhanji's crib. Seeing Zhu Di and the others coming, she hurriedly stood up and saluted, but was stopped by Zhu Di and the others.

Zhu Di stood beside the crib, leaning|down|looking at his grandson who was sleeping soundly.

Zhu Zhanji slept with his body twisted, his two chubby hands raised high and placed next to his head, and the two crossed together, forming a perfect diagonal line with his head.

Zhu Di whispered, "You can still sleep so soundly after sleeping like this." After finishing speaking, he reached out and gently hugged Zhu Zhanji, corrected his sleeping position, and put him in a good position.

Zhu Zhanji slept very deeply and was not woken up by his grandfather.

Zhu Di stretched out his hand to pull the quilt for his grandson, covering Zhu Zhanji's neck.Seeing his grandson's cute sleeping face, he didn't hold back, stretched out his fingers and touched it gently.

Concubine Yan was worried that Zhu Di would wake Zhu Zhanji up, so she raised her hand and patted Zhu Di's arm lightly, and said softly, "Be gentle, don't wake Zhanji up."

Zhu Di nodded to Princess Yan, and then prepared to withdraw his hand.At this moment, Zhu Zhanji suddenly grabbed his finger.

Zhu Zhanji also opened his eyes at this time, looked at Zhu Di blankly, and called out softly: "Grandpa?"

"Hey!" Zhu Dihui held his grandson's little hand and shook it gently, "Zhanji, grandpa is back!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his grandson smiling very happily.

With this smile, Zhu Di's heart softened.

"Ouch, my eldest grandson." Zhu Di's hard work and exhaustion from traveling disappeared at this moment, and he was healed by his grandson's smile.

Zhu Di reached out to hug Zhu Zhanji, but was stopped by Princess Yan.

"Let Zhanji continue to sleep."

Zhu Di withdrew his hand resentfully, and said to Zhu Zhanji in a gentle voice: "Zhanji, go to sleep." After speaking, he patted Zhu Zhanji's quilt lightly.

Zhu Zhanji closed his eyes obediently, and fell asleep after a while.However, his right hand still held his grandfather's fingers.

Seeing that his grandson was asleep, Zhu Di carefully opened Zhu Zhanji's little hand.Fortunately, Zhu Zhanji didn't hold onto his fingers, and it was easy for him to retract his fingers.

Squatting beside the crib and watching his grandson's sleeping face for a while, Zhu Di left contentedly.

Walking out of the side hall, Princess Yan teased Zhu Di and said, "Are you satisfied seeing your grandson?"

Zhu Di smiled and said, "Satisfied."

Concubine Yan cast a sideways glance at Zhu Di: "Why did you miss your son so much before?" Zhu Di used to go out to fight a lot, and was away all year round, and he never saw him miss his son as much as he does now.

"How can a son compare with his grandson." Zhu Di said confidently, "How could Gao Chi and his three children compare with Zhan Ji."

When Princess Yan heard this, she smiled helplessly: "You really are..."

"Princess, I am hungry."

"I thought you weren't hungry."

Princess Yan accompanied Zhu Di to the dining room, and personally served him with vegetables.

While eating, Zhu Di told Princess Yan about the past few months.

Princess Yan listened very seriously, and from time to time spoke a few words of agreement.

The two chatted like ordinary couples, and the atmosphere was very good.

After eating, Princess Yan was worried that Zhu Di would not sleep well due to overeating, so she let him walk around the room.

It is very cold in Beiping at night, if you go out for a walk to digest food, you will be frozen.

Zhu Di was as excited as a child to show off to Princess Yan how he defeated Song Zhong and Geng Bingwen.

Princess Yan looked at Zhu Di with admiration, and praised Zhu Di from time to time.After Zhu Di had finished showing off, Princess Yan reminded him not to be proud, because arrogant soldiers are bound to lose.

Zhu Di said that he knew well and would never be complacent.

After talking about fighting outside, Zhu Di started to care about the affairs in the mansion.Princess Yan carefully told him about the situation in the mansion in the past few months and what Zhu Gaochi had done during this time.

She knew that the second and third sons had been speaking ill of the eldest son in front of Zhu Di before, so she wanted to help the eldest son speak well in front of Zhu Di.

After Zhu Di heard this, he expressed with an unclear expression that he knew.

Seeing Zhu Di's appearance, Princess Yan knew that Zhu Di had listened to what the second son said before, and became dissatisfied and suspicious of the eldest son.

It's too late tonight to go on.Princess Yan planned to wait until tomorrow to talk to Zhu Di properly.

Zhu Di didn't want to talk about the elder son anymore, but there was one thing he had to ask clearly.

"Princess, what happened to Huang Yan?"

"My lord, I told you in the letter before that Huang Yan made a mistake and was kicked out of the palace by me."

"Isn't it Gao Chi?" After all, Huang Yan was the eunuch serving Zhu Di, and Princess Yan suddenly drove him out of the palace, which made Zhu Di suspicious.Of course, he did not doubt Princess Yan, but Zhu Gaochi.

Huang Yan stayed in the palace on purpose. In addition to taking care of the affairs of the mansion, he also had to monitor Zhu Gaochi.In other words, Zhu Di asked Huang Yan to report to him about Zhu Gaochi at any time.

Princess Yan had no dissatisfaction with Huang Yan before, but suddenly drove Huang Yan out of the palace, which made Zhu Di think more.He guessed that Zhu Gaochi used tricks to drive Huang Yan away, and Princess Yan helped him cover it up.

"It's not Gao Chi, it's me who wants to drive Huang Yan away." When Princess Yan heard Zhu Di's question, she knew that he suspected her eldest son, "My lord, you misunderstood Gao Chi, and he would plead for Huang Yan, saying that Huang Yan Serve you all the time, drive Huang Yan away, there will be no one around you who can serve you well."

Zhu Di looked at Princess Yan, but said nothing.

"My lord, if you want to blame me, blame me, this matter has nothing to do with Gao Chi."

Zhu Di stepped forward and held Princess Yan's hands, and said gently: "Princess, how can I blame you. Since Huang Yan made a mistake, you should drive him away." In Zhu Di's heart, Huang Yan has no Yan Yan. Princess is important.

"I think the posture of the prince just now seems to ask me to blame the teacher."

"How dare this king." Zhu Di hurriedly put on a panicked look, "Give this king ten courage, and this king would not dare to ask the concubine to sin."

"is it?"

"My lord, I don't believe you, you have to believe me." Zhu Di hurriedly smiled, "My lord, I'm tired, let's rest."

Princess Yan suddenly said to Zhu Di with a serious face: "My lord, I know you are dissatisfied with Gao Chi, but I personally dealt with Huang Yan's matter, it has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't know what happened. Mother, don't let him be wronged for me."

"The king believes in the princess." Zhu Di's words meant that he believed in the words of Princess Yan, which meant that he no longer doubted Zhu Gaochi.

Hearing what Zhu Di said, Princess Yan felt relieved.

"My lord, for Zhan Ji's sake, you should treat Gao Chi better."

Zhu Di retorted: "When did this king treat him badly?" He said sternly, "He is the prince, so this king should be strict with him."

Princess Yan glanced at Zhu Di, and was too lazy to tell him any more.

"It's getting late, let's go to bed." No matter how many good things she said about Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Di was still very dissatisfied with his eldest son.

When Zhu Zhanji woke up the next day, he was shocked to see his grandfather smiling very kindly.

Zhu Di pointed to himself and asked, "Zhanji, do you still remember who I am?"

What happened to his grandfather.

"You are my grandpa." Zhu Zhanji raised his chubby hand and squeezed his grandpa's face, "Grandpa, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing that his grandson still recognized him, Zhu Di was relieved, then picked up Zhu Zhanji, and rubbed his grandson's soft face: "I'm afraid you will forget grandpa."

"How could I forget grandpa."

Zhu Di kissed his grandson's face vigorously, and said with a smile, "He is really a good grandson of grandpa." After speaking, he asked again, "Zhanji, did you dream about your great-grandfather last night?"

Early this morning, Princess Yan told Zhu Di about Zhu Zhanji's dream of Zhu Yuanzhang, Xu Da and Zhu Biao.
