"Father, it's her."
Zhu Houzhao pointed at Zhu Wanqing who had just come out, his face full of anger, "Father, you have to make the decision for your son!"
As the saying goes: what can be dismantled can be built; what can be broken can be erected; since Zhu Wanqing dared to spank Zhu Houzhao, how could he not have the means to deal with the aftermath?
She was stunned at first, then horrified, then full of anger, and finally turned into fear. A series of expressions were completed in an instant, extremely smooth.
"Your Majesty, the daughter of the people has been wronged!"
Zhu Youtang waved his hand to indicate that nothing was wrong, and then his face turned completely dark, "Huzhao, if you continue to make trouble unreasonably, my father will be so rude!"
"Father, everything my son said is true!" Zhu Houzhao felt aggrieved, "If you don't believe it, look at my butt, it was all spanked by her!"
As he said that, the little guy actually wanted to take off his pants.
"What kind of behavior, what kind of behavior..." Zhu Youtang was really angry. How could this be the behavior of a prince?
"Bah bang bang...!"
Zhu Youtang, who had always been good-tempered, was really angry now. He didn't care about his head or buttocks, and he would give him a beating if he was caught.
Zhu Houzhao yelled, and at the same time he said harsh words to Zhu Wanqing, "Do you have the guts to tell me what your name is?"
"Presumptuous, presumptuous!" Zhu Youtang felt even more embarrassed and slapped his butt again.
How could he believe that a civilian woman dared to beat her own son?
Especially if you hit your grandson in front of your grandfather, this is not a joke!
No matter how brave you are, you can't do this!
Zhu Youtang knew about Li Hao, but he didn't know about Zhu Wanqing. How did he know that the person standing in front of him was his cousin's mother, his aunt.
Zhu Youtang took it for granted that his son was angry and had nowhere to vent his anger, so he deliberately found a punching bag.
Thinking that he had smashed his buttocks just now, he became even more angry and struck harder and harder.
Now, even if Zhu Houzhao took off his pants, he still wouldn't be able to tell who was the one who made him famous.
"Brother, please calm down. Your Majesty, please calm down..."
All the princes and princesses quickly tried to persuade him, saying things like "The prince is still young".
This time, the little guy became even more sad and angry.
"Father, it was this vicious old woman who beat me..."
Zhu Wanqing raised her eyebrows and said immediately: "Your Majesty, since the prince hates civilian girls, please allow civilian girls to return to their hometown."
Li Qing naturally turned to his niece and said, "Your Majesty, His Majesty is seriously ill. It's really hard to do without an assistant. I have been my apprentice for a long time, and changing someone will affect the performance of my medical skills."
Zhu Youtang stopped his hand and said with a smile: "The prince is a bit naughty, how can I not distinguish right from wrong? Don't worry, I won't blame her. Come and take the prince to the school. From now on, there will be classes in the afternoon."
"Ah?" Zhu Houzhao couldn't care less about the pain and hurriedly apologized, "Father, please calm down. Father, please calm down. My son...well, my son said it wrong. She didn't hit me."
Zhu Youtang sneered: "It's too late, Zhang Yong, Zhang Yong!"
"The slave is here." Zhang Yong, who had just finished cleaning the ice, hurried in before taking a breath.
"Take the prince to the school. If something like this happens again, go get the imperial staff yourself!"
"Yes, I obey the order." Zhang Yong hurriedly stepped forward and took Zhu Houzhao's hand, "Your Highness, let's go."
"Ah!" Zhu Houzhao became increasingly sad and angry, "Old evil woman, just wait!"
"You still dare to be so stubborn? You have classes at night, and I will teach you myself!"
Hearing this, Queen Zhang also glared at her son bitterly.
"Father, my son and I have been wronged...!"
Zhu Houzhao's voice gradually faded away...
Li Qing withdrew his gaze, cupped his hands and said, "Resign, ordinary people."
"The daughter of the people resigns."
~
"Uncle Li, brother, is this really... like this?"
Li Qing sighed, "This is not a bad idea."
Zhu Wanqing was silent for a long time, and then sighed softly: "After this year, I will not come to the capital again."
"I don't want to come either." Li Qing said with a wry smile, "If you can't come, fine, then you have to work harder, so cheer up."
"Um…."
…
As the Chinese New Year gets closer and closer, the atmosphere in the palace becomes different. Steaming dim sum, croquettes, and eating dumplings... The royal Chinese New Year is not much different from the folk Chinese New Year, but it is more grand and sumptuous.
This year, Li Qing is quite relaxed. He neither rushes to the New Year's Fair nor prepares the New Year's dinner. He just waits to eat it.
The uncle and nephew live in the side hall of Changle Palace, and with Zhu Jianshen's special care, the food is not generally good.
With the intensive treatment and the blessing of the New Year, Zhu Jianshen's complexion is getting better day by day. He is energetic and speaks with full energy. The palace is filled with rich joy...
A few days later, Zhu Jianshen returned to a level close to normal. Not only did his energy and energy return, he was also able to walk around freely without even using crutches.
It's snowing heavily today, snowflakes are falling, and early in the morning, the ground is dyed with a thick layer of white.
Zhu Houzhao wears a cotton-padded jacket, a red robe with a "friendly" patch on the outside, and a tiger-skin hat, which makes him look more tiger-like and tiger-headed, which is very gratifying.
The kid was full of energy, as if he didn't know what cold was. He squatted on the ground, picked up the snow, squeezed it into a ball, and threw it at Zhang Yong.
"Oh," Zhang Yong cooperated with the performance, "Your Highness, you are really accurate."
"Hahaha... you come too." Zhu Houzhao's face turned red and he was eager to try, "Let's see who is better."
Zhang Yong glanced at the second emperor under the eaves, his face full of sarcasm, he just shook his head and smiled flatteringly.
Zhu Houzhao suddenly felt bored and said instead: "Father, Grandpa Huang, let's have a snowball fight?"
"Nonsense!" Zhu Youtang glared.
"Huh?" Zhu Jian frowned deeply.
Zhu Youtang immediately wilted down and said: "Father, it's still snowing here, the ground is slippery."
"Do you think everyone is like you?" Zhu Jianshen struck mercilessly.
There are still outsiders here. Father, can't you give me some face...Zhu Youtang had no choice but to ask Li Qing, "Miracle Doctor Li, shouldn't the Emperor do strenuous exercise?"
It’s now, what do you still care about? Li Qing said: "As long as the Emperor is happy."
Zhu Wanqing wanted to refute, but couldn't.
Seeing that Li Qing didn't object, Zhu Jianshen walked out of the eaves with a big smile and said loudly: "Zhu Houzhao, are you ready?"
"Ready!" Zhu Houzhao said with a high face, "come on horseback."
Zhu Jianshen leaned down, grabbed the snow, and threw it at Dasun, followed by another snow bullet.
"Hey, you can't hit." Zhu Houzhao ducked out of the way and was about to feel proud when the next snow bullet hit accurately.
"Hey, it's too early to be proud." Zhu Jianshen laughed like a child, with a sense of 'a villain succeeds'.
Not to mention, Zhu Jian is three levels deep inside and three levels outside. He looks round and round, but he is still very nimble, pressing down on his eldest grandson to beat him.
Zhu Houzhao was flexible, but he was defeated when throwing snowballs. He was almost always beaten. He was not discouraged. He patted the snow on his body when he was hit. If he fell, he patted the snow on his body and took the time to fight back.
Grandpa and grandson had a great time playing.
Then, the princes and princesses arrived one after another, and then the Zhou family, the Ji family, the Wang family, the Shao family...
The courtyard in front of the temple is extremely lively.
Inspired by their grandfather and grandson, the princes also joined the snowball fight, but they did not dare to join their grandfather and grandson's team, so they each threw snowballs.
The princess and concubines were relatively reserved, just watching from the sidelines and acting as 'cheerleaders'.
At this moment, the swirling snowflakes seemed not to be cold anymore.
"Brother Emperor, come and play!" Zhu Youtang patted the snow that was thrown on him by King Qi and invited Zhu Youtang.
Zhu Youtang was already eager to try, and immediately smiled and said, "Come on."
However, he was far behind his son. As soon as he stepped down the steps, he fell.
"Haha...the ground here is quite slippery."
Zhu Youtang had a good temper and was celebrating the Chinese New Year. In addition, he had already lost someone once before, so he didn't think it was a big deal. He patted the snow on his robe and joined the battle group.
Li Qing looked at this scene and couldn't help but smile...
Regardless of the aura of the royal family, they are no different from ordinary families. As long as there is no situation like "nine sons take over the legitimate children", the royal family also has family ties.
There is a relationship between father and son, there is a relationship between brothers, there is a relationship between sisters...
The most ruthless emperor's family? Not absolutely!
…
Happy time always passes quickly, and it feels like New Year’s Eve has come quietly before it has passed.
Early in the morning.
Zhu Jianshen began to write. The little eunuch was waiting aside. Every time he wrote the word "福", he immediately had someone post it up.
In the courtyard in front of the temple, firewood was burning, crackling and glowing.
Zhu Youtang, Empress Zhang, and Zhu Houzhao, a family of three, were the first to come to pay New Year greetings. Then, the Wang family and Ji family came with their concubines.
Finally, Zhou also came.
Zhu Jianshen led his children, daughters-in-law, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren to pay her New Year's greetings.
The imperial kitchen brought hot dumplings. Zhu Jianshen shared the dumplings with everyone and said cheerfully: "Let's see who is lucky enough to eat the only dumpling wrapped with copper coins..."
Li Qing and Zhu Wanqing were also in the hall, but they did not participate. They just ate dumplings in the distance and chatted about their own topics.
"Uncle Li, do they know about his body?" Zhu Wanqing said in a low voice.
"Don't worry, he won't cause us any trouble. At least the emperor knows." Li Qing drank the fish soup calmly.
Zhu Wanqing nodded, glanced at the eldest brother in the center, and said, "I think the eldest brother looks very good and is still alive."
"It's just an appearance," Li Qing put down the small bowl and sighed, "In five days at most, the sky will fall apart."
Zhu Wanqing lowered her eyebrows and was about to say something when there was a sudden noise in front of her, and she hurriedly looked up.
I saw King Xing sneering awkwardly, holding up a copper coin, and saying self-effacing words.
Shao said that the Supreme Emperor wanted to express his gratitude.
Zhu Jianshen laughed and rewarded him with a hundred pieces of silk, which made everyone envious, but not jealous.
New Year's Eve.
Stay up late.
To be precise, it was Zhu Jianshen's family who watched over the New Year's Eve, and Li Qing and Zhu Wanqing watched over Zhu Jianshen.
This night, the entire palace was brightly lit, and Changle Palace was filled with fireworks. The bright fireworks illuminated the night sky and illuminated everyone's eyebrows...
The fireworks are beautiful...
New Year's Day.
Zhu Jianshen, who had only slept for two hours, was full of energy, while Li Qing and Zhu Wanqing had not slept all night.
However, with the blessing of the New Year, Zhu Wanqing does not feel sleepy.
The morning light poured in through the window, covering the floor with a layer of warm tones, and also warmed Zhu Jianshen. He smiled and whispered to himself: "The new year is so good..."
