Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was about to move to sit down with the support of the palace servants, Zhu Yunxi kowtowed again.
Grandpa Huang, my grandson has something to ask for!
Say it! Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said sadly, between you and my grandson, there is no harm in saying it!
Zhu Yunxi's face was sad, his eyes were red and swollen. When his father was around, his grandson was naughty and his father was worried about him! As he spoke, he wiped his tears and continued, "My father has gone, and the child wants to enter the Huangjue Temple and observe filial piety for his father for three years."
Eat fast every day and recite the Buddha's name, chant sutras and listen to the Buddha. For my father and the emperor's grandfather, I accumulate merits in front of the Buddha! May my father's heroic spirit always be there, and the emperor's grandfather live a long life!
With that said, he kowtowed again and asked Grandpa Huang for his permission!
Zhu Yuanzhang's mood, which had just calmed down, surged again.
What a filial child!
Filial piety is the first of all virtues. Filial piety is the most basic criterion for measuring a man. It is also the most appreciated moral quality in this era.
Everyone in the world believes in the Buddhist theory of family merit, and Zhu Yuanzhang became a monk in Huangjue Temple when he was young.
This fourteen-year-old child is willing to use his three years of good life to give up his glory and wealth. For his father and grandfather, he chants sutras and prays in front of the Buddha. He only prays that his father’s heroic spirit will always be around, and that his grandfather will live a long life and be healthy!
What kind of great filial piety is this? What kind of reputation? How could Zhu Yuanzhang not be moved?
Looking at Zhu Yunxi's sincere face, looking at Zhu Yunxi's face that looked so much like his son, Zhu Yuanzhang felt sour and relieved at the same time.
Men can only grow by experiencing ups and downs!
Although this grandson lost his father, he truly grew into a man!
His grandson is all his own good. At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang forgot Zhu Yunxi's cowardly and stupid character, and his usual stubborn behavior.
Zhu Yuanzhang was even a little angry.
Such a good grandson, I usually have such a reputation in other people's mouths!
How could such a filial child be naughty? How could he be stupid and cowardly?
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang felt a little guilty.
As the emperor's grandfather, do you usually neglect your grandson?
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang looking at him and not speaking for a long time, Zhu Yunxi kowtowed again and said solemnly, Grandpa Emperor, please fulfill your grandson's filial piety! After saying that, he took two steps on his knees, put his hands on Zhu Yuanzhang's knees, and burst into tears.
Looking carefully at Zhu Yunxi's thin cheeks and red and swollen eyes, he recalled that the child had fainted from crying on the spot when he heard that his father had passed away.
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly felt distressed and said softly, "Good boy, we know you are filial. But now is not the time to talk about this. Your father has just left. You must cherish your body and live well to be truly filial! If you don't think about others, you will also be filial."
Think about your grandfather's old bones!
Grandpa Huang! With tears in his eyes, Zhu Yunxi slowly leaned his head on Zhu Yuanzhang's lap.
Crazy! Crazy! Zhu Yuanzhang also had tears in his eyes, gently stroked Zhu Yunxi's hair, and murmured.
In Fengan Hall, the sound of breathing could be heard clearly. Both the courtiers and the palace people were all moved.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang is his grandfather, he is the emperor first and then his grandfather.
Although Zhu Yunxi was a grandson, he was a minister first and then a grandson.
In the feudal era where etiquette was emphasized, the emperor could not reveal his true feelings easily even to his favorite children and grandchildren.
But now, the emperor is like a grandfather from an ordinary family, talking to his grandson in whispers. And the identity of this grandson is a direct grandson, which can't help but make people think a lot.
Especially Lu, who looked at Zhu Yunxi in disbelief.
To keep the filial piety for the prince, she specifically told her son Zhu Yunwen in the morning that she wanted to tell the emperor. But at this moment, she was told by Zhu Yunxi, who was usually unobtrusive. For a moment, she felt anxious and quickly touched her son again.
.
Zhu Yunwen immediately understood and climbed to Zhu Yuanzhang's side, crying, "Grandpa, grandson... the grandson must also keep filial piety for his father!"
Looking at Zhu Yunwen's pale face, Zhu Yunxi sneered in his heart.
One step first, every step first.
I first brought up the idea of keeping filial piety, and you, Zhu Yunwen, are just picking up my wisdom.
I am sincere and you are the icing on the cake.
My filial piety is 100% in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, but your filial piety must be discounted!
In the confrontation regarding the status of the Ming Crown Prince, I took the upper hand and won my first victory.
The ground breeze on a spring night was slightly chilly.
The wind blew in from outside Fengan Hall, and the candlelight in the hall swayed with the wind, stretching the kneeling figure very long.
I had been kneeling for so long that my legs were numb.
But in this era where etiquette, law and human relations are paramount, Zhu Yunxi cannot relax in any way.
Just kneeling, no matter how tired you are, how can you still be tired in modern society, where you get up early and work late to make money?
In modern society, for the sake of life and family, no man can relax himself.
Returning to the Ming Dynasty is related to one's future status and one's life and death, and there is no room for relaxation.
The younger brothers and sisters couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep in the arms of the palace master, with tears in the corners of their eyes.
Only Mr. Lu, Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Yunzhen were still kneeling before the spirit.
Second brother! Zhu Yunxi looked at Zhu Yunwen who was also emaciated, and said, if you are tired, you go and have a rest first, my brother will be here to watch! He said, look at Mrs. Lu, mother and concubine should also go and have a rest, the child will keep vigil for his father.
!Your health is important!
Hearing this, the groggy Zhu Yunwen suddenly felt that this third brother was a bit strange. This third brother was not of this temper before.
And Mrs. Lu could not help but look at Zhu Yunxi. Within a day, the third child seemed to be a different person.
In the past, Zhu Yunxi would not be so calm, let alone so considerate of others, and would not even take the initiative to talk to them.
Is there any reason for the elder brother to take a rest and let the younger brother take care of him? Zhu Yunwen smiled faintly and said it was better for the third brother to take a rest! One month before my father passed away, I was the one who served him before the collapse. I am used to it!
How can there be brotherhood in an imperial family? Zhu Yunxu just said it casually, which caused such a big reaction from Zhu Yunqi.
Is this a demonstration? Or a declaration of sovereignty?
The memory in his mind told Zhu Yunxi that in the month before Zhu Biao's death, it was indeed Zhu Yunwen who served him by his side as the eldest son.
But Zhu Yunxi also knew that it was not that the original Zhu Yunxi didn't want to serve, but that he couldn't rely on him.
When the family is about to leave, the stepmother will naturally bring her biological son to show off to others. If it is not her biological son, she will not be able to prevent him in time, so how can others see the good side.
There was silence in Fengan Hall, but there were many pairs of eyes and ears around. Zhu Yunxi knew that their conversation in front of the soul would definitely reach Zhu Yuanzhang's ears.
So, Zhu Yunxi said calmly, thank you for your hard work, brother. Ever since his father was seriously ill, his brother had cried countless times and wanted to serve him at the bedside. But every time he went, he was blocked by his mother and concubine.
He said that since my second brother was here, I didn’t need to worry. It would be inconvenient to have one more person.
As he said that, Zhu Yunxi lowered his head and rubbed his eyes. I know that my mother and concubine meant well, but I am also my father's son after all. It is really a big regret in my life that I couldn't personally serve the soup and medicine to my father!
In an instant, Mrs. Lu's eyes turned sharp as she looked at Zhu Yunxi.
She was originally a concubine. After the death of Crown Princess Chang, she took charge of the East Palace. Naturally, she was very wary of the legitimate son of the crown prince's wife. Fortunately, the crown prince's legitimate son was not very shrewd and was easily manipulated by her.
.
But why did he suddenly change today? Not only did he win favor in front of the emperor, but he was no longer submissive in his words.
Thinking of the emperor's love and affection for Zhu Yunxi today, Lu was even more worried.
She was not from a high family background. She could climb up to the position of the crown prince's step-concubine as an ordinary concubine. She was certainly not an ordinary woman. She knew the preferences and personalities of the prince and the emperor very well.
This emperor is not an easily emotional person! The last time I saw the emperor showing such true feelings was at the funeral of the late Empress Ma!
I have worked hard for so many years so that my biological son can inherit the throne of the prince. However, his son's identity as a bastard is a thorn in his heart.
Now, the legitimate son, who usually seemed to have no merit, suddenly became able to please the emperor and gain favor. Lu's heart suddenly became uneasy.
Even, there is a hint of hatred.
At this time, suddenly a palace lady walked over softly, whispered a few words in Lu's ear, and then slowly left.
Mrs. Lu wiped her tears, "Lao San, you've been crying and watching all day, are you hungry? Go take a rest and use something!"
This was the first thing Lu said to herself today.
Zhu Yunxi thought about it over and over in his heart, and said, "Mother and concubine, the child is not tired or hungry!"
Go! Lu said softly, it's good for you to be filial, but you can't tire your body! You go first, and when you come back, I will let your second brother go! As he said that, his tone became stern, go
Come on, listen!
If you show your courtesy for nothing, something will definitely happen!
But at this time, in full view of everyone, Zhu Yunxi could not say no.
Yes! He bowed his head in response, stood up with his knees in hand, took a deep breath, and walked towards the back hall.
Mrs. Lu looked at his back, her eyes like daggers.
Son, you see, you really know people but not their hearts. How good is the third child on weekdays, but your father just left and he jumped out!
Zhu Yunwen was thoughtful and said nothing.
Mrs. Lu and her son came closer and whispered in his ear, before your father died, he told your mother to stay away from your uncles. I think the one you want to stay away from is this third child instead!
Let's say that Zhu Yunxi walked to the back hall and saw no one around, so he stretched out his arms.
The palace is really not a place for people to stay. You have to think twice before you speak or do anything. This is the first day of time travel, and it is so difficult. What about the future?
From now on, only if you gain Zhu Yuanzhang's favor and get that position, will your life be truly easy and you will be able to truly do whatever you want.
Zhu Yunxi walked casually on the ground, but he kept thinking in his mind.
For an emperor as talented and strategic as Zhu Yuanzhang, in addition to gaining his favor, if you want to be given the seat, you must be capable!
What abilities do you have? Although I love history and understand the general trend, I actually have nothing outstanding. How can I prove it?
