King An Zhu Ying said hurriedly, "But I want to ask the emperor to stay with me for a few more years!"
These words immediately surprised the old man and Zhu Yunxi, and they all looked over.
Zhu Ying smiled uneasily and whispered, "Pingliang is remote, and its scenery, water and soil are completely different from those of the capital..."
Hearing this, the old man was slightly displeased, "What do you think is wrong?"
"My dear, I don't dare!" Zhu Ying said hurriedly, "My dear, my dear..."
After saying that, he knelt down with a pop, "My son, I want to stay with my father in the capital for a few more years!"
Suddenly, the old man was slightly moved.
"Your Majesty!" Zhu Ying said to Zhu Yunxi again, "Father is old, I... Pingliang is too far away, I am afraid of going there..." He spoke intermittently, his voice choked with sobs, "
In the past few years, I have grown older day by day, but my father looks like I am getting older day by day. I don’t have any ambitions, and I don’t want to become a king like other royal brothers. I don’t even think about making contributions, I just think about it.
Spend more time with your father."
"Let me talk to my father, go for a walk with him, and let him scold and praise him a few times." Zhu Ying said, with tears in the corners of his eyes. "If I live up to my expectations and have a son and a half daughter, I will do it every day."
Bring him to the palace and accompany his father..."
"Idiot!" The old man stretched out his big hand, gently patted Zhu Ying's shoulder, then gently placed it on the top of his head and rubbed it.
He was afraid that he would go too far and not be able to accompany the old man for the rest of his life!
Zhu Yunxi was moved by this filial piety and felt very pleased.
"How can a person be immortal? Are you afraid that you won't be able to see us alive?" The old man sighed and said with a smile, "Son, as long as you have this heart, your father will be content with it!"
"If I don't want to go out, I will be a feudal lord!" Zhu Ying leaned his head on the old man's lap. "My son doesn't want to leave the palace. Even if he gets married, I still want to live in the palace and see my father every day!"
The old man's voice became softer and softer, and the hand touching his son began to tremble, "Chier, you will naturally move out when you get married! What is it like to live in the palace!"
"When you are in the palace, my son is in the palace. Wherever you are, my son's home is there!" Zhu Ying couldn't help crying suddenly.
These words make people feel sad. Unlike other old men, Prince An and Zhu Ying’s biological mother died of illness very early, and she has been pitiful since she was a child. It is precisely because of this that the old man has special pity for him.
"Don't cry, don't cry!" The old man comforted Prince An Zhu Ying and looked at Zhu Yunxi.
This look suddenly made Zhu Yunxi feel sour in his heart, because the old man's eyes had unknowingly taken on a hint of pleading.
Once upon a time, such things were just a word from the old man. But now that he is old and no longer a family member, he has to discuss everything with his eldest grandson.
"Just live there, it's not a big deal, and no one dares to talk too much!" Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "Let the people from Guanglu Temple enter the palace later, and open up the cross-courtyard on the side of the prince's residence, so that the residence will be more spacious.
.”
"Okay, stop crying and thank me!" the old man said with a smile.
"I thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhu Ying rubbed his eyes and saluted.
"Hey, all the sons we gave birth to in this life are like little tigers. How come they are crying like you are here!" Although the old man said this, his expression was full of love. "It's better to be softer.
Being soft means being kind-hearted!" After saying that, he smiled at Zhu Yunxi and said, "A child who knows how to be filial can never go wrong!"
At this time, Pu Wuyong came in from the door, "Old man, it's time to wash your feet!"
"My son, go!" Zhu Ying had already gotten up from the ground, walked outside the door, took the copper basin filled with hot water, and placed it at the old man's feet.
Then he gently helped the old man take off his shoes and socks, and carefully placed the old man's ugly feet in the hot water.
"Well, it's good to raise a son, haha!" The old man smiled.
Then, the old man looked at Zhu Yunxi and said, "We heard that you were scolded because someone wrote a letter asking you to choose a mausoleum?"
"That's what happened!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile, "Several officials are probably crazy about trying to please the emperor, their grandson, and they keep saying that the mausoleum should be designated early. How old is the grandson? How old should he designate the mausoleum?"
"Actually, there's no harm in making an appointment early!" The old man squinted his eyes and soaked his feet enjoyingly, "Man, it might happen someday. Although you are young, you still have to fear life and death. We are the most important now.
Do you know what you regret?"
"Tell me!" Zhu Yunxi also squatted down and helped wash the old man's feet.
The old man’s toenails are all yellow, thickly embedded in the flesh, and some look like they are growing into the flesh. Such nails are very troublesome. They can only be trimmed with scissors when they are soaked soft. Moreover, the old man always wears a pair of nails on his feet.
The old skin that cannot be scraped clean feels like a shell.
"What we regret is that we didn't choose a good place for your father earlier!" The old man sighed, "At first, someone suggested that your father choose a mausoleum early, but your father rejected it because he felt that he was young and his life was far away.
But then he left as soon as he wanted, and if he didn't want to be buried, he would have to stop outside."
"Fortunately, our mausoleum is almost in a state of repair, so we set aside half of it for him so that he can have a place. You, don't be so stubborn. This thing is also Feng Shui. It's better to believe it or not. Decide on it early and slowly.
If you practice cultivation, it won't hinder anything. You always think so much, it's not necessary. How can anyone be perfect?"
"This is all etiquette, and it has been like this in all dynasties! Being a good emperor does not show itself in this!"
The old skin on the old man's feet had become soft. Zhu Yunxi carefully scraped it with a file and said with a smile, "My grandson either wants to be a perfect man, or he thinks it's too early."
"Just be stubborn!" The old man laughed and scolded, "Let's see if you catch me blind in the future!"
"So what if you are caught blind?" Zhu Yunxi smiled, raised his face and said, "What if my grandson's future mausoleum will be next to yours?"
"Go away, go away!" the old man laughed and scolded repeatedly, "I will take care of you when you are alive, but when you are dead, you will come close to us and not let us calm down?"
As he said that, the old man opened his eyes suddenly, "Bah, bah, bah, what are you doing, you brat? Are you so young that you can kill one by one?" Then he closed his eyes again and muttered something in his mouth, "The bad ones don't work, the good ones work."
....."
Hearing the sound, Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Ying looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.
"Hey, great grandson!"
"Grandpa Huang, please tell me!"
"Who will host Old Twenty-Two's wedding?" the old man asked again.
"My grandson has chosen Mr. Cao Guo, and he will officiate at the wedding!" Zhu Yunxi said, "He is an all-rounder, and he is the most suitable for this!"
"He... is okay!" The old man thought about it, "But after all, it's still a little bit worse. His surname is not Zhu after all?" After saying that, he paused and said, "The boss of your fourth uncle's family is pretty good, let him work with him.
Busy, he is one of our own family after all!"
Zhu Gaochi?
Zhu Yunxi was slightly surprised, "He is a junior!"
"What's wrong with the junior? It's not like he is the one to preside over the marriage. The Xu family is also his mother's family, so it makes sense for him to help with the errands!" The old man said, opened his eyes and smiled, "Besides, if you put people in the capital, you can't
Give him something serious to do, that kid is too careless, if you don't let him do something, will he be able to sleep at night?"
"He is a mature one among the third generation of you. In the future, you will have some use for him..."
