Chapter 3 The Future King of Qianning

As soon as he heard that Mu Ying could be seen, classmate Xiao Zhu also obediently let the nanny pick her up, wrapped her in thick swaddling clothes and walked towards the outhouse.

Mrs. Ma has not yet given birth, and it is difficult to meet her adopted son. This means that Zhu Ying is only 11 years old, otherwise he cannot even enter the outhouse.

When he stepped out of the inner room, he saw a heroic boy standing neatly. The servant beside him was patting the dust on his knees, and a maid wiped his forehead.

Zhu Ying looked at the little ball that was taken out, and her bright eyes were now shining brightly.

The nurse carefully stood in front of Zhu Wenying while holding the baby in her arms: "Master Ying, please look, this is your little brother. Isn't he cute?"

Zhu Ying carefully looked at the newborn baby, who was fat and white, and reached out to touch the plump face, but in the end she just touched her brother's little feet from under the swaddling clothes.

Classmate Xiao Zhu also carefully observed Zhu Ying's eyes and expression.

In his last life, he was almost twenty years old, and he was still good at reading people's faces. Even if Mu Ying pretended to be in front of others, she would not be wary of a baby when she looked down at him.

He is the adopted son of Zhu Yuanzhang and the Ma family. Without Xiao Zhu, there may not be a chance to take over Lao Zhu's power.

After all, no one knew that Lao Zhu was infertile. They only knew that he was nearly thirty years old and still had no heirs.

But unexpectedly, I found that Zhu Ying looked at him very intimately. There was envy in his eyes, but there was no jealousy.

Classmate Xiao Zhu was also used to being cute with his mother, so he reached out and grabbed Mu Ying, blowing bubbles in his mouth cutely. This was his newly developed skill, he specialized in deceiving mothers.

The wet nurse was also surprised and said: "Oh, Mr. Ying, look, the young master is waving to you. This is the first time we have met, and the young master is so close to his brother."

Zhu Ying also reached out and grabbed her brother's little hand, her eyes widened and her mouth widened, and she smiled silly.

He was lonely and homeless since he was a child. He was lucky enough to be adopted as an adopted son by his parents at the age of eight. He didn't care what his other brothers thought, but he, Zhu Ying, must repay the favor of the Zhu family.

The two brothers had fun with each other for a while, but Zhu Ying finally became sensible and said: "Okay, let's send the young master over to the outer room." He reluctantly glanced at classmate Xiao Zhu.

Seeing his little brother enter the inner room again, Zhu Yingcai bowed to the inner room and said: "Mother, I will go back and come to visit you and my brother in a few days."

Ma took her son and said: "Go, the weather is getting cold again these days. Mom has just sent you a thick quilt. Remember to cover it at night and wear more clothes when going out."

Zhu Ying agreed and left. After a while, a middle-aged woman came back to the inner room and reported to Ma: "The treasures sent by Mr. Ying are all very good. I will use them for my wife tomorrow."

Ma frowned while hugging her son, but said nothing.

This woman was specially kept by Zhu Yuanzhang to prevent any dirty things from happening in the inner house.

But Mrs. Ma did not believe that Zhu Ying, whom she had raised by herself for three years, would be harmful to her. However, she patted her son who was burping and still did not say that there was no need to check the things Zhu Ying sent in the future.

And even if you say it, it may not be useful. Before the husband went to war, he attached great importance to this unborn child. Not only did he leave behind 300 personal soldiers, but he also took away all the older adopted sons and placed all the concubines elsewhere.

Where visitors are not allowed to visit.

These servants have already beaten their husbands, and they dare not disobey. They all know that if they offend themselves, they will be driven away. If they offend their husbands, the whole family will not be able to leave a single person to breathe.

Thinking of her husband's character, Ma also sighed.

Xiao Zhu has been trying hard to stop the milk burping, but just like he can't control his peeing, the baby's control over his body is too weak.

He simply closed his eyes and thought to himself that apart from Mu Ying, whom he had just met, Zhu Yuanzhang had more than twenty adopted sons, but most of them died in the war, and very few survived to the Hongwu Year.

Mu Ying was Zhu Yuanzhang's favorite adopted son, and it was recorded that he had been guarding Yunnan. When Mu Ying heard that Queen Ma had died, she coughed up blood due to excessive grief.

After receiving the news that Prince Zhu Biao had died, he fell ill and died two months later at the age of forty-eight.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt deeply regretful and ordered him to be buried in the capital. He was named King of Qianning, given the posthumous title of "Zhao Jing", and enjoyed the Imperial Ancestral Temple. After that, the descendants of the Mu family guarded Yunnan for generations until the end of the Ming Dynasty...
