Chapter 99 Enfeoffment

 Chapter 101 Enfeoffment

Zhu Xiongying, who seemed to be sulking, didn't get up until the evening. After washing up, he was ready to eat.

Lao Zhu and Queen Ma are naturally here, so there is no need to be surprised that Zhu Biao appears here. What makes Zhu Xiongying a little surprised is that his mother Chang is also here, and she looks a little worried now.

Zhu Xiongying was speechless. He felt that he was being manipulated. Although Zhu Xiongying was sometimes arrogant and arrogant, in front of the Chang family, Zhu Xiongying basically reported good news but not bad news. He also knew that Chang

Some of her worries will not be overdone in front of her.

Empress Ma asked Chang to come over not only to show her respect and affirmation for the eldest daughter-in-law, but also to show her respect and affirmation for her eldest daughter-in-law. In fact, she also did not rule out the idea of ​​trying to manipulate Zhu Xiongying. No one knows better than Empress Ma what kind of character the family members have.<

/p>

After Zhu Xiongying said hello, he sat down directly and said, "Roast goose, roast goose, I like to eat roast goose, and roast chicken is not bad either."

"Like your grandfather, you are not lucky." Empress Ma smiled and gave Zhu Xiongying the goose legs, and also complained, "Other people are emperors and they only eat delicacies from the mountains and seas. You just eat a cake or a roast goose. Then

I feel better."

Zhu Xiongying didn't think so, and said, "It depends on who cooks it. There are also some strange things sent by Shangshan Supervisor, and I always feel that the taste is not right. The cakes and goose cooked by my grandfather are to my liking."



Lao Zhu said directly, "Now you know how to coax your grandmother. If you are angry with your father, why don't you vent your anger on your grandmother?"

Zhu Xiongying started eating the goose leg without saying a word, not caring at all about Lao Zhu's provocation.

Ms. Chang is a little frightened now. Few people know better than her how sensible and smart her son is. This child didn't make people worry about much when he was a child, but when he grows up, he actually starts to make people worry.

Only belatedly did she find out that her son and her husband had quarreled in the Wenhua Hall, and the quarrel was extremely violent. She heard that they even threw things and even made a fuss in front of their mother.

When it was time for dinner, even though the son had said hello, he still hadn't said anything nice to the prince, and the prince's face had never looked good, and he was obviously still angry.

Empress Ma didn't care about that and asked directly, "We are all a family, what's the point of quarreling! How big a deal can you two do that is worthy of throwing a cup?! This is still in the Wenhua Palace. If you make such a fuss, it will be too late."

The city was full of storms for two days."

Zhu Xiongying said nonchalantly, "How powerful my grandfather and father are. If they don't want people to know about things in the palace, can people outside know about it?"

Zhu Biao snorted coldly, "Do you really think you can hide everything? There are so many people in the palace, and there is no chance that some things will get out."

Empress Ma had a headache, and then scolded, "We are going to argue again, right? What are you two talking about now!"

Now that Queen Ma is unhappy, it seems that Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying are about to give up, so they can't quarrel.

Lao Zhu said at this time, "Xiongying, you have always been sensible, and you understand some of the truth. I am partial to your father and you, but those uncles of yours are also my sons after all. If you have a long family, they should also be rich.

, is this the truth, right?"

Zhu Xiongying said hurriedly, "Grandpa, I understand the truth. I didn't say that I wanted to make my uncles suffer. They have been free and easy all their lives, and I am happier than anyone else. The head of the family is doing well, and our old Zhu family is doing well."

Only a country can be stable."

"Then tell me, I've given your uncles a place to live outside. Isn't that enough?" Lao Zhu seemed a little angry and said, "I'm afraid they'll cause trouble and I'll kick them out when they get older. You can tell yourself, they go

How many good places are there?"

This is wrong. Taiyuan, Datong, Kaifeng and other places are not bad. Of course, there may be a few slightly ordinary places, but as a prince, life is definitely not bad. And not under the emperor's feet, it is even more unrestrained.

.

Lao Zhu seemed to still be resentful, and continued, "I am already so old, and I still want my sons to be separated from each other. Isn't this enough? I don't allow them to move around privately, or go back to Beijing together, just for fear that they will cause trouble.

I protect your father and you at all times, but you still want to be so petty and make them live an uneasy life?"

Zhu Xiongying looked at Lao Zhu and said seriously, "Grandpa, I can understand your difficulties, but you should also think about mine."

Zhu Biao became angry and said, "Difficulties? What difficulties can you have?! You are the grandson of the Ming Dynasty. Ever since you were born, good things have been thinking of you. Your grandparents hold them in their hands and are afraid to touch them.

If you hold it in your mouth for fear of melting, your uncles are all coaxing you and giving in to you, how can you still have any difficulties?"

Zhu Xiongying was not happy. He looked at Zhu Biao and asked, "Dad, my uncles are there, and many of them are younger than me. To put it bluntly, if my grandfather and you are no longer here, they will all be my elders."

."

Zhu Biao slapped the table and scolded, "So what?! Your grandfather set the rules. The emperor is the head of the clan after all! How can they not be convinced by you?!"

Zhu Biao's voice was loud, and Queen Ma's voice was even louder, "Let's talk well, why are we arguing again?"

Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying immediately stopped talking. They need to calm down now. They need to talk properly now. If they really continue to quarrel, they will definitely have their ears pulled or even spanked. That is not a good thing.

Things.

Zhu Biao also said earnestly at this time, "Xiongying, I know you are afraid of the rebellion of the Seven Kings of the Western Han Dynasty. But you have to understand that the princes of the Ming Dynasty are vassals outside the country. They are different from the vassal states of the Western Han Dynasty. Your uncles are not the same as those in the Western Han Dynasty.

The most power to govern a local area is to have some soldiers and horses in hand, and that is only a small number of soldiers and horses."

Lao Zhu and Queen Ma looked at each other, and they both felt funny in their hearts. Some things were really what they expected.

Even though the son and grandson seem to be quarreling a lot, the father and son singing and harmonizing are making a lot of noise.

If you look at it this way, it means that the eldest daughter-in-law has been kept in the dark, and she is now trembling and restless. But this is good. You don't have to worry about things like political interference in the harem. Being a little confused has its advantages.

At least in terms of political affairs, neither Lao Zhu nor Empress Ma wanted to see the Chang family being too shrewd. They were also quite resistant to such things. The Crown Princess is the Crown Princess and should not care about matters above the court.

Zhu Xiongying seemed to be arguing with reason, but said seriously, "I know that my uncles cannot govern the place, and I also believe that even if my uncles are in front of me, they will not cause trouble. I definitely will not embarrass my uncles, I just want to

I want to see, where are the heirs of my uncles?"

Zhu Biao asked unhappily, "Your uncles can't teach their sons well? Will your brothers cause trouble?"

"If you don't have long-term worries, you will always have immediate worries. You can't say for sure!" Zhu Xiongying said matter-of-factly, "They are all the flesh and blood of his grandfather, and they are high in the local area and have military power in their hands. Maybe they have other thoughts.



Lao Zhu said hurriedly, "No, no, how much trouble can such a small number of troops and horses cause? Besides, their food, wages and weapons are all allocated by the imperial court, how can they cause trouble?"

This seems reasonable. After all, the power of the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty seems to be limited, unlike those princes in the Western Han Dynasty who controlled domestic affairs and military affairs. From this point of view, the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty did not have the basic conditions for rebellion.

Zhu Xiongying looked at Lao Zhu and asked, "Grandpa, my second uncle, and my third uncle are doing things in the fiefdom. Grandpa really doesn't know?"

Lao Zhu was speechless for a moment. Lao Zhu knew exactly what his sons were like outside. He just pretended not to know sometimes, just because he didn't want his sons to be punished.

Zhu Biao became anxious when he heard this. He is a good big brother, "What are you talking about?! You are the one who is doing all the trouble now. What does it have to do with your uncle? If you continue to act like this, I won't take care of you!"<

/p>

Zhu Xiongying immediately ceased his activities again. It is enough that everyone knows this. What's more, Zhu Xiongying himself has no intention of tormenting his uncles, and there is really no need to do those things.

Several of his uncles did commit some crimes in the local area, but if they were to be punished immediately, it would definitely not be possible.

Zhu Xiongying looked at Lao Zhu and said seriously, "Grandpa, my uncles must be well-behaved in front of you, and they will not cause trouble in front of my father. Even in front of me, they are probably very responsible, and I know it well."
p>

Zhu Biao sneered and said sarcastically, "You think highly of you, why do you let your uncles do their duty?"

"I am the eldest grandson of my grandfather, that's all!" Zhu Xiongying said matter-of-factly, "Besides, I am not mediocre. My uncles have long known that I am precocious and intelligent, and they have

Why bother with me?"

Empress Ma took advantage of the opportunity and said, "Since you know that you have so many benefits, why do you have to have trouble with your uncles? They all admire you, and no one wants to compete with you for the throne!"

The truth seems to be this, and everyone actually knows it well.

Considering Zhu Xiongying's background and status, it is only natural that he has inherited the throne. Even Zhu Xiongying's uncles do not dare to find fault with these matters, nor do they feel dissatisfied.
p>

Many people know their status very well and know that they are destined to be a prince from the moment they are born. The throne has always had nothing to do with them, even if they are the prince's grandson.

Zhu Xiongying also understood this truth, but still suddenly said, "If this is really the case, what can my uncle say?"

Hearing what Zhu Xiongying said, in addition to Chang's expression changing drastically, Lao Zhu and Queen Ma were also speechless. Zhu Biao lowered his head and said nothing, seeming to be thoughtful.
