Zhu Qizhen had eight princes and three princesses by his side.
The youngest is still in his infancy, and the oldest is already ten years old.
He lost his power and left the palace, but gained something more precious in the world, family love.
His twelve children, including Zhu Jianshen, who has become the Ming Emperor in the capital and will give birth to a grandson in two years, have a 100% survival rate so far.
This is a rare probability for the emperor.
Maybe it was because he lost the right to inherit the throne and there were no more intrigues, or maybe because Yunnan is a good place, all the eleven children grew up healthy.
Although Zhu Qizhen had gone through hardships and failed the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty did not fail him. Even if he lost his freedom, it was still the emperor's expense standard. Except for the loss of freedom, he had everything.
His fighting spirit was slowly wiped out by his parents' misdeeds, and his heart was also filled with warmth due to his parents' misdeeds...
Zhu Qizhen walked back and forth in the yard with the child in his arms, lifting it high from time to time, making the child laugh continuously, and the lady beside him also looked satisfied.
This noble lady was one of the maids sent here by Zhang Bao. She was tasked with monitoring the Supreme Emperor. Over the years, she passed on everything Zhu Qizhen said and did whenever she had the opportunity.
Because in addition to this noble lady, there are several palace maids who are shouldering this mission, and they will also reveal the news to the outside world.
This noble lady gave birth to a son for Zhu Qizhen, and the other palace maids had nothing to do. For the same reason, the noble lady did not dare to hide anything, because she had a dragon son and was targeted. The most likely possibility is that if there is any concealment, I am afraid that I will be separated from my son forever.
A eunuch came in at this time and announced that Leng Kuang had arrived.
As we all know, Leng Kuang would not show up except at night when the Emperor was going to bed. In other cases, Leng Kuang would come over and chat with Zhu Qizhen.
Although Zhu Qizhen has calmed down a bit over the years, he still couldn't control his ups and downs of emotions after hearing Leng Kuang's name, and he was ready to say curse words in Mongolian.
"Zhi'er, you go in with your mother first, and your father is going to see a disgusting guy." Zhu Qizhen said lovingly to Zhu Jianzhi in his arms.
Zhu Jianzhi's face was a little disappointed, but he still nodded obediently: "Father, are you going to see that little old man with a goatee?"
"Yes, that's it. Oh, that's not right. Have you seen him?"
"No, but my father got angry when he saw him, so I asked my father-in-law some questions. He told me about the old goat man."
Zhu Qizhen laughed loudly, and then handed Zhu Jianzhi to the lady.
After the lady took the child, she looked at Zhu Qizhen and whispered: "Your Majesty, don't forget tonight..."
"I can't forget, I can't forget..." Zhu Qizhen looked a little stunned and said hurriedly.
Because there are no new women to fill in, there are only a dozen or so coming and going, and most of them have given birth to children. Zhu Qizhen is not as concerned about this matter as before, and going to your house tonight will become a Zhu Qizhen was a great weapon to stabilize his family, but many of them were never fulfilled.
After the lady heard Zhu Qizhen's reply, she went down with her child in her arms.
"Let him come in." Zhu Qizhen said, lying on his rocking chair again and closing his eyes.
After a while, Leng Kuang walked in slowly and followed Zhu Qizhen for five years, which made Leng Kuang exhausted and looked much older.
"I have met the Supreme Emperor, Leng Kuang."
"The Great Emperor."
"The Great Emperor."
No matter how Leng Kuang shouted, Zhu Qizhen just closed his eyes, didn't speak, and didn't respond.
Leng Kuang glanced back, and the eunuch shook his head slightly, telling Leng Kuang that the Supreme Emperor was pretending to sleep.
"The Supreme Emperor, I came here this time to talk to the Supreme Emperor about returning to the capital. Since the Supreme Emperor is unwilling to listen, I will leave first." After saying that, Leng Kuang turned around and left.
When Zhu Qizhen, who was pretending to sleep, heard the word "return to Beijing", the DNA in his body suddenly moved.
He quickly opened his eyes and stood up.
"Prefect Leng, don't leave..."
After Leng Kuang heard Zhu Qizhen's voice, he stopped and then turned his head to look at Zhu Qizhen.
"Isn't the Emperor asleep?"
"I'm young. I sleep quickly and wake up quickly. Just now, Magistrate Leng said they would return to the capital. When will they set off? Do you want to inform them to pack their luggage now?" Zhu Qizhen was a little impatient.
Yunnan has a good environment and is like spring all year round, making people feel comfortable all the time.
But Zhu Qizhen was born in the capital. No matter how many places he traveled, how many beautiful scenery he saw, and how many people he met, his local accent would always be his last piece of luggage, and nostalgia was an emotion he could never overcome.
Decades of wandering made him miss his home deeply. If he went back again, he would never come out again.
What's more, there is also his mother, his married wife, and his first child at home. They are always looking forward to the return of their king.
Leng Kuang smiled bitterly: "I just informed the Emperor in advance that we are not leaving now."
After Zhu Qizhen heard this, he was obviously a little unhappy, but after thinking about it, there was always hope. After adjusting his emotions, he continued: "Since we informed you in advance, there must be time. A month from now, or half a year from now."
"I don't know..."
Zhu Qizhen gritted his teeth, but still smiled: "Prefect Leng, what do you want to say to me?"
"His Majesty has made a decree to hold a nationwide draft, and Yu Taibao has also sent a letter. After your Majesty's draft and wedding, he will first take the princes and princesses back to the capital, join their ancestral homes, and grant them royal titles. After your Majesty's dragon son is born and the country is decided, , taking the Emperor back to Beijing."
After hearing Leng Kuang's words, Zhu Qizhen's expression changed.
"I want to return to Beijing with my children, and they cannot go back early."
Since studying in Mongolia, Zhu Qizhen's mind has become much brighter, and his thinking is no longer so simple.
In some ways, his own children were also a threat to Zhu Jianshen. Xu Youzhen and his like were in power in the court, the emperor was an ignorant boy, and the palace was full of rebellious officials and traitors. He did not feel comfortable handing over his children.
Even if he believed that his eldest son Zhu Jianshen would not attack his younger siblings, those ministers, especially Xu Youzhen and others, would inevitably have other ideas.
And he can only protect them by staying with his children all the time.
"But didn't the Supreme Emperor request that the princes return to the capital first? Why did he regret it now?" Leng Kuang asked with some confusion.
Zhu Qizhen's face was serious, and his eyes looked fierce and calm.
He just looked at Leng Kuang, and then said slowly: "I will never agree to it in any case. You can take my child away. This is what I said, and no one can do it."
Leng Kuang looked at Zhu Qizhen's expression and guessed something.
"Your Majesty, do you think you have the final say in this matter?"
"Leng Kuang, you may think that what I said is not true, but don't forget that my son is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and I was also the emperor of the Ming Dynasty."
"I am the king, and you are the ministers. Whatever I say in the Ming Dynasty, you, including Yu Qian and others behind you, must listen to what I say, otherwise you will be rebellious ministers and traitors, and will be criticized by descendants and bear infamy for generations to come. "
"Even if you don't care about your reputation behind you, your son still has to listen to what your father says. I will let my son, your emperor, punish you for your serious crimes. If you are willing to listen to me, I promise to forget the past after returning to Beijing. .”
This rare majestic side of Zhu Qizhen really frightened Leng Kuang. His face was slightly nervous, and then he took two steps back, took out the letter written by Yu Qian to himself from his arms, and read it again to find his courage.
After reading it, Leng Kuang glanced at Zhu Qizhen and said slowly: "The Emperor, you have returned to the capital, but you are not really back to the capital. Your Majesty is wise and will not listen to your words and kill Zhongliang."
Zhu Qizhen frowned and said coldly: "What do you mean?"
"Your Majesty's arrangement is that the Supreme Emperor will welcome you back from Mongolia. He will not inform the officials, the people, or the ancestors of heaven and earth. After arriving in the capital, he will arrange for Nangong to rest. Therefore, the Supreme Emperor went to the Han Palace in Shandong and came to Yunnan. These things , there will be no records in the history books, and our arrangements will never appear in the history books. Even if there are rumors, they are unofficial history and are not worthy of consideration."
"So, I said that you returned to the capital, but you didn't. You are in the capital, but your status is still in Mongolia. Of course, many of these things have never happened. Your Majesty, who has such an arrangement, how can you Can I listen to your words, kill the ministers of the auxiliary country, and defeat the justice of the world..."
There are two trees in the courtyard, one is a willow tree and the other is also a willow tree. Their branches and leaves are facing downwards. A breeze blows and pushes the treetops lower. This is also a reflection of Zhu Qizhen's heart.
This, what's going on?
