East Palace.
Xiao Zhu Jianshen was a little unhappy, but it wasn't because his younger brother was here. More people were surrounding his younger brother, and he didn't care about that.
Just because the eldest sister is unhappy.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Zhen'er looked at the growing little guy with pity and heartache, and forced a smile: "It's okay, why doesn't the prince play with the eldest prince?"
"He has a lot of people around him, but not the eldest sister." Xiao Zhu Jianshen said seriously.
Zhen'er was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but feel a sore nose. In so many years in the palace, this was the first time someone cared about her so much and cared about her feelings.
She didn't want to pass on her negative emotions to the little guy, so she smiled and said, "Go and play. I'm just a little uncomfortable. It's okay."
"are you sick?"
"Uh...yes." Zhen'er nodded, "But I've already taken the medicine, so I'll be fine after a nap."
Seeing that he was deeply relieved, Xiao Zhu urged: "Then you go and have a rest. I'll go and play with my brother."
"Well, let's go." Zhen'er smiled and watched the little guy go away. She got up and walked out.
She knew that she could not do much as a slave, so she could only ask for help from the Queen Mother Sun, who was the prince's own grandmother. Zhen'er knew that it was impossible for Queen Sun not to care.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the door, he met the eunuch in charge of the ceremony and more than a hundred royal guards.
"This slave has met your father-in-law." Zhen'er quickly saluted.
Xiao Hengzi said "Hmm" and walked straight in with the others.
With so many people arriving at once, Zhen'er was worried and followed them.

"Don't...I want to...play here." Two-year-old Zhu Jianji spoke very awkwardly and refused to leave.
Xiao Hengzi was on the side trying to persuade and coax, but it had no effect at all.
All the royal guards did not dare to say anything. Although the little guy was only two years old, he had a noble status. He was the only son of the emperor. He could not interfere with them.
Zhen'er squeezed forward and asked in a low voice: "Eunuch, are you... taking the eldest prince back to the palace?"
"Ang." Xiao Hengzi replied casually and continued to persuade.
Zhen'er's eyes widened, she was in disbelief.
Is it possible that his villain's heart can judge a gentleman's heart, and the emperor has no intention of changing and establishing a prince?
In any case, the East Palace is a place where only the prince is qualified to live, and it is only reasonable for the eldest prince to go back.
"Father-in-law, why don't you let me have a try?" Zhen'er was eager to give it a try. She wanted to send the eldest prince away quickly.
When Xiao Hengzi saw someone picking up the scalded potato, he immediately said: "Okay, then you try it. If you coax the eldest prince, we will reward you."
"I don't dare." Zhen'er said politely, then stepped forward and knelt down, "First Prince, if you can play here, you can play in the palace, and it's even more fun than this."
"No, don't." Xiao Zhu Jianji was very stubborn, "It's not good to have fun in the palace."
Zhen'er smiled, turned around and said, "Father-in-law, is that so?"
"That must not be the case!" Xiao Hengzi quickly praised.
"Liar." The little guy said in a sweet voice.
Xiao Hengzi was so anxious that he rubbed his hands, but there was nothing he could do.
But Zhen'er was very patient and said gently: "Then don't leave. The eldest prince is tired, right? Can you let me hold you?"
The eldest sister is nice and speaks nicely. The little one is naturally close to her and stretches out her arms.
Zhen'er picked him up, humming a little tune and rocking him back and forth. The little guy who had been crazy for a long time soon couldn't open his eyes anymore and fell into a deep sleep.
"Eunuch, the eldest prince is asleep." Zhen'er said with a smile.
"It's really yours." Xiao Hengzi quickly took it carefully, "Our family can't spare it, so I'll give you the reward next time. Let's go back to the palace."
"My father-in-law, please go slowly. This servant will see you off for your father-in-law." Zhen'er didn't care about this, she smiled apologetically and sent Xiao Hengzi out all the way.
Watching the soft sedan go away, she breathed a long sigh of relief and couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
"Finally left..."
"Sister, why didn't you go to rest?" Xiao Zhu Jianshen walked up and asked curiously.
Zhen'er knelt down happily and said with a smile: "My slave has recovered from his illness. What game does the prince want to play?"
"That's great?"
"Really." Zhen'er stood up, spun around in a circle, and jumped twice, "Do you believe it now?"
"Yeah." Xiao Zhu was also very happy, "Then let's play Cuju."
"okay."
"Wait a moment, Cuju." A voice sounded, and both young and old turned their heads at the same time, only to see Yu Qian walking in, bowing and saying: "I, Yu Qian, see His Highness the Crown Prince." gōΠb.ōγg
"Oh, no courtesy." Xiao Zhu asked with a raised face, "Why are you here?"
Yu Qian said: "I am here to teach the prince to read according to the emperor's decree."
Zhen'er was startled, and then she was filled with joy. The little prince didn't know what was going on, but she knew Yu Qian's current status.
The emperor asked him to teach the crown prince, so he definitely had no intention of changing the title of crown prince... Zhen'er quickly saluted, "I have met Mr. Yu."
"Yes, no courtesy." Yu Qian nodded, "My time is limited, so the girl might as well wait until the prince finishes his homework and then play some games with the prince."
"Yes, everything is at your discretion." Zhen'er bowed again, knelt down and said to Zhu Jianshen, "Prince, my slave's illness has not fully recovered yet. Can you study your lessons with Teacher Yu first?"
"Okay." Xiao Zhu felt deeply unhappy. His eldest sister was bad now, good now, and bad again, which made him very depressed.
Yu Qian smiled slightly: "Prince, let's go to school."
"Ang, okay."
Xiao Zhu nodded deeply and looked back at Zhen'er.
Zhen'er said hurriedly: "Prince, please go quickly. Master Yu is very knowledgeable."
…
Harem.
After hearing the news, Ms. Sun breathed a long sigh of relief. Of course she cared, she cared more than anyone else.
But she doesn't have any advantages right now. Her son is alone and her grandson is too young. What can she do?
Unless... poison Zhu Qiyu's son to death.
She had thought about this, but the problem was that it hadn't gotten to that point yet. After all, the prince was still a grandson, so he couldn't do that.
However, if her grandson's position as prince is deposed, she will definitely do it.
I must have been overthinking it. Looking at it like this, Zhu Qiyu didn't mean that... Mrs. Sun felt relieved.
This is good now. As long as the prince is her grandson, the throne will still be her descendants.
Mr. Sun is not a good person, but he is not a troublesome person either.
——
When Li Qing heard the news, he couldn't help but sigh: "Zhu Qiyu is worth it."
Zhu Qiyu did not have the iron-blooded skills of an emperor, but he maximized his kindness.
For this alone, he deserves recognition.
Come to think of it, Zhu Qiyu in history was also a kind-hearted person, otherwise he would not have been overturned by Zhu Qizhen.
But one code is the same, those who should be helped should be helped, and those who should be stolen should also be stolen.
Li Qing is not targeting Zhu Qiyu.
He secretly decided to hold the Yongle ceremony, even if the fourth child climbed out of Changling, he couldn't keep it, he said so.
~
The news that Zhu Qiyu changed the title of Grand Master to Prince Yu Qian and asked him to go to the East Palace to teach the crown prince to study quickly spread throughout the court and caused quite a sensation.
They are all human beings, so they can naturally see the deep meaning of Zhu Qiyu's actions.
None of the officials expected that Zhu Qiyu would be so magnanimous.
But it was hard for anyone to say anything. What Zhu Qiyu did was reasonable and in line with etiquette.
Even those 'keyboard warriors' have no idea what to say.
When a person faces his weakness, he has no weakness.
In the days that followed, Zhu Qiyu still treated others gently, but he showed a hint of imperial domineering.
That is a kind of fearless domination.
Not obvious, but pure.
This kind of Zhu Qiyu made all the officials even more afraid, because they couldn't control it at all.
In addition, changes in officialdom have also made it difficult for those who want to stir up trouble.
This time, the court situation has really stabilized, and the internal strife in the Ming Dynasty has been greatly alleviated. Although everyone has not yet been able to work hard, it is also developing in a good direction to a great extent...
