"The Emperor's eldest grandson, I didn't want to cause trouble."
Seeing that Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Su finally gave up the idea of causing trouble for him, Zhu Ming threw the broom aside and began to calm down their emotions.
"If you don't mess with me, I won't dare to fight with you."
What he said was not a lie.
No matter how much Zhu Yuanzhang dotes on him, he still remembers that he and Lao Zhu are not actually related by blood.
Zhu Yunwen and the others were only focused on crying now, and they didn't hear so much. They were just shedding tears.
"Zhu Chu, Zhu Chu, you are bullying our good grandson again, right?"
Before Zhu Yuanzhang entered the courtyard, anxious voices could be heard.
Hearing the anger in Zhu Yuanzhang's tone, Zhu Su and Zhu Zhen even shuddered.
All in all, the two brothers are the least favored here.
"What's going on, is this?"
Zhu Yuanzhang opened the door aggressively and walked in. Looking at the scene in the yard, he was stunned for a moment, and the anger he had just faded away a lot.
Didn't it mean that Zhu Xi and Zhu Xi were causing trouble for their beloved grandson? Why were they still crying?
Yun Wen was also squatting on the side crying, his body still bruised and bruised.
Even Yun Qi and Liu Jin, who were following Zhu Yuanzhang, were stunned for a moment when they saw this scene.
What's going on?
"Grandpa Huang."
The mood in this courtyard is relatively stable, and only Zhu Ming is left.
After he had almost rested, he stood up and shouted obediently to Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Our dear grandson, are you okay?"
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately ran over, held Zhu Ming in his arms, checked carefully, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Zhu Ming was not injured.
"I'm fine, Grandpa Huang."
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang caring so much about him, Zhu Ming also gave Zhu Yuanzhang a big smile.
Zhu Yuanzhang was relieved and then turned his attention to the other princes. He looked at Zhu Ming in confusion: "My dear grandson, did you beat this?"
Zhu Yuanzhang could accept beating up the two brats Zhu Su and Zhu Zhen, but even Zhu Yunwen won, which really surprised him.
Zhu Yunwen is already a teenager and almost an adult.
"Um."
Zhu Ming responded, then lowered his head.
In any case, it seems that he is bullying a child, and he is somewhat invincible.
"Our dear grandson is really a good young man with both civil and military skills. He is worthy of being our Qilin'er."
Zhu Yuanzhang touched Zhu Ming's head in surprise, and did not look worried about the other princes at all.
"Father."
Seeing this, Zhu Xi and Zhu Xi could only shout aggrievedly at Zhu Yuanzhang.
"How's it going? Is something okay?"
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at them impatiently and asked in a deep voice.
It's not that he hates these princes, it's just that compared to Zhu Ming, these princes somewhat make him hate iron.
Just go and bully Ming'er by yourself, you still can't win.
"No...it's okay."
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was a little angry with him, Zhu Su and Zhu Min dared to say that they had something to do, so they could only respond in a low voice.
Fortunately, although Zhu Ming can fight, he is still a child after all. He doesn't have much strength. He looks disgraced and has no serious injuries on his body.
"Grandpa Huang, you are too partial to this."
Zhu Yunwen on the side couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up to speak for the two princes.
"That commoner hit us, why are you still facing him?"
It was okay that Zhu Yunwen didn't say anything, but when he did, Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him angrily.
This kid is the same. He is a teenager. It is embarrassing to be beaten like this by a doll.
"You don't study in the East Palace and you come here to bully others. How dare you say that?"
Zhu Yuanzhang walked over and pointed at Zhu Yunwen's nose angrily and cursed.
Even Zhu Yunwen didn't expect that Zhu Yuanzhang would scold him like this because Zhu Ming, a commoner, made him feel even more aggrieved.
"He, a commoner, was the first to bully the imperial uncle and the others!"
He was even more unconvinced, pointed at Zhu Ming in Zhu Yuanzhang's arms, and curled his lips in response.
Seeing Zhu Yunwen still targeting Zhu Ming, Zhu Yuanzhang was even more angry.
It's okay for others to find Zhu Ming unhappy, but Zhu Yunwen is not good at it.
He and Zhu Ming were half-brothers.
Even Biao'er's spirit in heaven wouldn't want to see this between their brothers.
"Stand up and kneel in front of your father's spiritual place. Don't get up until dark!"
Even for Zhu Biao, he had to discipline Zhu Yunwen well, otherwise how could he safely leave the country and Zhu Ming in the hands of this boy.
At the same time, this is also a warning from Zhu Yuanzhang to Lu.
Zhu Yunwen had been living in seclusion in the East Palace for the past few years, and suddenly came out to cause trouble for Zhu Ming. He didn't believe it without Lu's guidance behind it.
"Yes, Grandpa Huang."
When Zhu Yuanzhang yelled like this, Zhu Yunwen was in disbelief for a while, and then drooped like a deflated balloon.
He responded weakly, then stood up and walked towards the door.
"And you, please don't bully others like this again."
After reprimanding Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yuanzhang did not forget to teach Zhu Lu and Zhu Zhen on the ground a lesson.
"I understand, Father."
Seeing that Zhu Yunwen, who used to be the most favored in the past, was trained like this by Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Su and Zhu Zhen did not dare to talk back, and responded cautiously.
Taking advantage of Zhu Yuanzhang not giving them any punishment, they ran out of the yard in despair.
"Grandpa Huang, don't be angry."
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's angry look, Zhu Ming obediently reached out his hand and touched his face.
Being angry is not good for your health, especially since Zhu Yuanzhang is old now.
He still hopes that Zhu Yuanzhang can pay more attention to his body, and he sincerely cares about this.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry, don't be angry."
Seeing Zhu Ming care so much about him, Zhu Yuanzhang's anger suddenly disappeared, and he rubbed Zhu Ming's face with a smile.
"Liu Jin, you will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver for your merit in this matter."
After ravaging Zhu Ming again with his hands, Zhu Yuanzhang turned around and looked at Liu Jin with satisfaction and said loudly.
The few times Zhu Su and the others came to trouble Zhu Ming, it was Liu Jin who responded in time and came to find him, which can be regarded as his contribution to protecting Zhu Ming.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang rewarded him, Liu Jin immediately knelt down excitedly and kowtowed to him again.
One hundred taels of silver, even the monthly silver he has had since entering the palace, is no more than this amount.
"Yooner, what's wrong with you?"
Zhu Yunwen returned to the East Palace, kept his head lowered, walked to the memorial tablet of his father Zhu Biao, and knelt down directly.
The depressed look and the bruises on his body made Lu even more panicked.
This was just to teach a common man a lesson, why was he beaten like this?
