Chapter 413: The Emperor and the Empress both drank cold drinks
On November 13th, the wind and snow gradually subsided and the sun shone brightly, which was a good day for travel.
Traveling by emperors and empresses has always been a major event, with at least tens of thousands of ceremonial guards and retinues in front and behind.
But when Zhu Xianming and his wife left the palace today, they appeared to be extremely low-key and restrained. In addition to hundreds of guards accompanying them, only the Imperial City Yiwei Division sent additional people to escort them along the way.
In fact, both Xiyuan and Shanglin Garden are royal forbidden areas and are under full security. It is basically impossible for security problems to arise.
When the emperor and his wife approached, Zhu Jinghong, who had not received the message, was squatting on the field ridge to check the wheat seedlings.
Behind him were Zhu Jingchun and his two men, who had much less work to do today, and they finally had a relaxing few days.
“Brother Thirteen, I think there will be a good harvest next year,” Zhu Jingchun said with hope.
Although the work was tiring, after all, he planted it himself, so Zhu Jingchun naturally hoped for a bumper harvest.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Jinghao suddenly said, "Why are there so many people over there?"
Hearing this, Zhu Jinghong looked back and saw a large number of people coming from a distance.
Isn’t this exactly what I want? I just want Master Thirteen to know that I am the person he protects most in the world and the one he wants to be the princess of his choice
After Zhu Jingchun and Zhu Jingchun finished speaking, Zhu Xianming finally stopped and turned around to look at Zhu Jinghong.
Stepping into the field, Zhu Xianming squatted down and peeled off the snow. When he saw the crisp wheat seedlings below, he waved behind him.
"What's wrong with your farming?" Zhu Xianming's face turned cold.
The palace maid brought hot tea, but the queen waved her hand to leave.
"Father, who do you think your son is?" Zhu Jinghong asked righteously.
"You see I have forgotten important things when I say this"
"If you can't be a great general, you can always be a little general. Although my son is stupid, he still has some ambition to serve the country."
"Kowtow to the Emperor Father" Zhu Jinghong slowed down for a moment and then knelt down on the ground.
"Brother Thirteen, why don't we go back first?" Zhu Jinghao suggested.
Hearing these words from the emperor himself, Zhu Jinghong himself felt okay, but it frightened Zhu Jingchun and Zhu Jingchun who were standing with their heads down behind them.
After a while, Zhu Xianming felt that his anger had subsided, and then he asked Zhu Jinghong and the others to get up.
As for the hut, when the emperor and empress suddenly visited, Baochai suddenly became at a loss and seemed a little clumsy while saluting.
"Dad, son is just a metaphor." Zhu Jinghong gave in appropriately.
"My son has only one feeling, which is that he feels uncomfortable." Zhu Jinghong expressed his feelings very straightforwardly.
"Humph, is that so? You three have only two hoes."
Zhen Qin looked around at the crowd with a somewhat proud expression. She was the first again today. Protect Zhu Jinghong.
"If you don't believe me, ask them both."
When the situation was awkward, Zhu Yunsheng immediately changed the subject, "Sister-in-law has already made tea, please go ahead and present it to the queen."
This also shows from the side that she, Xue Baochai, is a qualified wife.
"Uh-huh"
Obviously she understands that no matter how well a daughter-in-law does, she cannot compare to her biological son in the hearts of her parents-in-law.
But he led the guards there. At this moment, the queen was still sitting in the courtyard, but there were windproof curtains around it, and a charcoal stove was placed around the queen's seat.
"With your knowledge of burning harps and boiling cranes, you still want to be a general," Zhu Xianming sneered.
This sudden change made Zhu Jingchun confused.
Zhu Jinghong did not understand the emperor's thoughts. For example, on Zhu Xianming's face at this moment, the anger just now had disappeared, and there was even a faint smile on his face.
Finally he clapped his hands, then straightened up and came to Zhu Jinghong and said, "Old Thirteen, you are so majestic."
Here Zhu Yunsheng was visiting, and the queen was already in the yard. He sat down and was talking with Baochai.
So Baochai could only say goodbye and went to the hut. At this moment, Zhu Yunsheng and others were inside.
Then Yang Qingyin looked at Baochai and said, "It is said that the bride takes care of her parents-in-law. Since you have done everything yourself, you can make me a bowl of tea today."
The emperor left with his guards, but Zhu Jingchun and his two men did not follow because they were also frightened, so naturally they had to stay away if they could.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Jinghong raised his waist and replied, "Dad, they say that tiger fathers have no sons. You don't want your son to be a pustule without eggs, right?"
"Report to my father, Your Majesty He went to the fields and took his two brothers with him."
The daughters were bickering inside, while the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking outside.
"Dad, let's walk around here" Zhu Yunsheng was the first to speak.
"Old Thirteen, you have nothing to say."
At this time, Xiangyun came forward, lay on Daiyu's shoulder, looked at Baochai, and asked, "Sister Bao, You are here as newlyweds. Master Thirteen is so kind to you."
"There is still a ditch that needs to be dug straighter."
Two people were busy digging the ditch, and one person Busy walking.
Daiyu then said, "Sister Qin, the husband and wife are of the same mind, and you rush to defend it. Doesn't it make the princess worse than you?"
"That said," Zhu Yunsheng muttered. One sentence, but did not continue.
And when Zhu Jinghong heard a familiar cough, his roaring voice suddenly stopped, and his body became stiff and turned around.
To be honest, in front of Princess Baochai, it was not Zhen Qin’s turn to say these words. She was actually doing something stupid by doing so.
So much so that Zhu Xianming had to admit that this child was not only sensible, but also upright, filial, and knowledgeable
The truth was as Baochai expected, after hearing what she said The queen of words is revealedSmile, as for the emperor, although he didn't speak from beginning to end, at least his face looked better now.
"Could it be that the fourth and sixth brothers are here again?" Zhu Jinghong muttered.
“You stupid pigs can’t even dig a straight ditch,” Zhu Jinghong yelled.
However, just as Zhu Xianming was about to enter the courtyard, he saw Zhu Yunsheng and others walking out.
"That's enough. My ears are on edge hearing this. I will be my beloved son according to your wishes. If I go against your will, I will kill you." Zhu Xianming asked with a cold face.
When Zhu Jingchun and Zhu Jingchun heard this, they immediately became happy and thought of the good food they had eaten when the other party came last time.
He is his biological son after all
Hearing this, Zhu Xianming's face changed with anger, and he immediately stood up and scolded "bastard"
Although Xiangyun is two years younger Years old, but also an extremely smart woman.
But when he thought about it carefully, he felt that this was a very normal thing.
"How dare a daughter-in-law neglect her mother like this?"
"Where?" Zhu Xianming asked.
Recalling the grievances Baochai suffered during this period, she seemed to feel the same, so that tears filled her eyes.
"Sister Qin, you are so protective of Master Thirteen, don't you care about the princess's face?"
However, before Baochai could answer, Zhen Qin on the side immediately said, "Girl Yun, you Don't talk nonsense about how Thirteenth Master could be such a person."
"If I defend Thirteenth Master, will I lose the princess's face?" Zhen Qin asked.
Zhu Xianming generally understood everything that happened in the past two months.
No matter Daiyu, Xiangyun, or Zhen Qin who is closest to Zhu Yunsheng, they have never lived in such an environment. At this moment, they and Zhu Yunsheng have the same idea.
Fortunately, Baochai is open-minded and is not an outsider present, otherwise she would have to punish Zhen Qin in order to maintain the dignity of her princess.
Although it was Zhu Jinghong who was scolded, Zhu Jingchun and Zhu Jingchun, who did not understand the situation, were so frightened that they bent over.
"They should work, should you rest?" Zhu Xianming immediately asked.
"Princess, let's go into the room and have a look."
"Sister-in-law Thirteen, how can you guys live here?" Zhu Yunsheng couldn't help but ask.
At this time, if you praise Zhu Jinghong more, it will be easier to score.
"For what benefit can you abandon your mother?"
In this way, even outside the house, Yang Qingyin could not catch the wind.
While blaming himself, Baochai went out with tea, and Zhu Yunsheng followed him.
"My daughter-in-law doesn't dare"
"How do you feel about cooking by yourself during this period?" Yang Qingyin asked with a smile.
Dad, my old Shi Sanli’s character will not collapse until the end
Looking back, Zhu Jinghong scolded, “Fifteenth brother, what’s going on?”< /p>
When receiving courtiers, foreign officials and envoys, he was always happy and angry.It's not obvious, only when he met Zhu Jinghong did he "break his guard" many times.
"Slander, someone is definitely slandering me. Dad, who did you tell me? Let me go and reason with him personally."
Baochai replied, "Pick chrysanthemums under the east fence. The poem "You Ran Jian Nanshan" is always on his lips. He works every day and doesn't feel bitter, so how can I say it is bitter?"
Seeing that this boy was about to stage a drama of bitterness, Zhu Xianming was about to say Then he heard Zhu Jinghong continue to say, "Parents love their children, so they have far-reaching plans, father." Are you working hard?" Daiyu interjected and asked.
Fortunately, Baochai kept it clean and tidy, which made Zhu Yunsheng and the others feel much better, but they still felt that it was difficult to set foot here.
"Yeah"
After all, the North Four Guards have only been training for a year. Although they are barely capable of coordinated operations, to be honest, there is still a lot of room for improvement.
"People farm for a living, so I farm"
"Father, listen to my explanation"
He had already told Zhu Jingyuan euphemistically before, This time he wanted to tell the emperor face to face again, in order to get enough "vaccination" in advance.
In fact, Zhu Jinghong was not only taking a walk at this moment, but also seriously thinking about the current situation and how to get out of trouble as soon as possible.
The northwest was in chaos, but the old man showed no sign of mobilizing the four northern guards, which made him slightly panicked.
As a qualified prison supervisor, Zhu Jinghong attaches great importance to the progress of the project, especially since he is a "free person".
"You didn't see me while I was working, but my son just took a break, and you happened to be here."
There was no way, even if the emperor wanted to be simple and simple, he couldn't have the pomp and ceremony that he should have. There were too many cuts, and there were dozens or hundreds of people crowding in front and behind.
Taking the tea leaves from the female officer’s hand, Baochai mixed the tea and poured the water, and said with a smile, “This is already much better than ordinary people’s homes. How can so many people in the world say this like Sanmei? I can't live anymore."
Looking at the queen, Zhu Xianming said, "I'll go over and take a look."
"Don't worry, Dad." Zhu Yunsheng was happy, it was rare for her to let herself go. .
Compared with the palace, the first thing that happened was that the hut was small. The four of them felt depressed when they entered.
Just listen to Baochai continue to say, "I won't hide it from my mother. If it weren't for the prince to take care of me, my daughter-in-law would really not know how to survive."
Zhu Jinghong originally thought that the old man was going to He said how his wheat was growing, and as the other party looked at him very seriously, he lowered his voice and said, "Boy, I will give you one last chance. As long as you give up the Xue family girl, I will let you leave here immediately, and you can do whatever you want from now on." ”
If you just know that life is not easy, then this answer is really ordinary. From it, you can understand the importance of mutual support between husband and wife, which makes the answer seem profound and appropriate.
Not even the prince and sixth brotherHow dare you talk to your father like this? Zhu Jingchun thought to themselves.
"Metaphorically, you have complained frequently here, and you think I don't know."
If this boy really abandons such a good girl in order to live a good life, Zhu Xianming will say nothing. Will not agree.
The two people were talking here, while Zhu Yunsheng, who was accompanying them, was visiting around and inside the hut. This was their first time entering and leaving a "civilian home".
Is this a test from the old man or does he really think so? Zhu Jinghong couldn't decide for a while.
"Sister Bao, I really don't know how she got here these days," Daiyu couldn't help but sigh.
"You are usually arrogant and stubborn, but after working and living here for a long time, what do you think?" Zhu Xianming asked calmly.
However, his answer is unquestionable. If he gives up Baochai at this time, all his previous efforts will be in vain, and the character he has worked so hard to build will collapse.
There are so many advantages, no wonder the Queen and Old Thirteen like Zhu Xianming and think so.
Rolling up his sleeves, Zhu Xianming went down to the ground, reached out and picked up one of the hoes, and then dug a few times in the ground.
"This"
Maybe Baochai is really smart, or maybe it's because of Zhu Jinghong. At this moment, Yang Qingyin actually feels that Baochai is her most pleasing daughter-in-law.
The emperor led the guards away, while Yang Qingyin continued talking to Baochai.
The North Four Guards are the face of military reform. Zhu Xianming will definitely not use them if he is not 100% sure.
Such a wild environment, such a dilapidated residence, such simple furnishings
But Baochai's shortcomings of "losing his father at a young age" have now been completely overshadowed by his advantages. At least Zhu Xianming no longer had much grudge in his heart.
At this time, the female official on the side answered, "Don't worry, Princess. The servants have brought tea."
"Please use the tea, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, please do it yourself" That's it." Yang Qingyin replied with a smile.
But Yang Qingyin smiled and said, "If you don't go, wouldn't you be neglecting me?"
Next, Zhu Jinghong was scolded, but Zhu Jingchun and Zhu Jingchun were fine. All you need to do is kneel down honestly.
Baochai knew very well what Zhen Qin was thinking about Zhu Jinghong. At this moment, she was the first to come out to defend herself, but it did not surprise her.
"Yeah"
"If you are asked to farm the land, you might as well become a hands-off shopkeeper and let your brother work. This is what you do, brother"
"It's over there." Baochai pointed in the distance.
Baochai replied, "Reporting to my mother, my daughter-in-law and the prince have done everything by themselves these days. Only then do I realize how difficult it is for ordinary people, and how valuable it is for husband and wife to be of the same mind."
Xiangyun said with emotion, " But compared to pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, embroidery is extremely easy now that I think about it."
"In the past, I thought embroidery was difficult enough, and it was just a matter of needlework and thread."
Obviously Baochai has passedHis test, what he asked Zhu Jinghong just now, was actually a test for his own son.
On the contrary, Zhu Jingchun and the two reacted faster. They turned around, put down the hoes in their hands, knelt down, and then directly kowtowed in worship.
My youngest son likes it. Although it is not in line with the rules, it is just an example. Zhu Xianming feels that he can be lenient.
Fortunately, the queen was extraordinarily friendly and asked Baochai to talk to her without any courtesy. The two formed a picture of a close mother-in-law and a filial daughter-in-law.
"Dad, my son is also trying to train them. These two have been well-dressed and well-fed since they were young, and they don't know the sufferings of the people."
Although this is extremely unlikely, it is not impossible.
"You two idiots, this is the ditch you dug, where are your eyes looking?"
Since Zhu Jinghong didn't speak, Zhu Jingchun had no choice but to speak, and explained how to "change his mind" Clearly, he was emphasizing inside and outside that he was sensible and could go back to the palace to study. < /p>
"You forced me to come here. My son is obviously destined to be a general, but you insist on letting me come to Shanglin Garden to farm. Isn't this the same as burning the harp and cooking the cranes?"
She knew that Zhu Jinghong and Zhu Jinghong were "driven" here because Baochai was disliked by the emperor and the empress, so she was worried that Zhu Jinghong would anger Baochai because of this.
Zhu Xianming coughed. At this time, he had asked the guards to stay where they were, so he could approach quietly.
"This is really a place where people can live." Zhu Yunsheng stopped and asked how many people were accompanying him.
From beginning to end, Zhu Xianming was aware of Baochai's words and deeds, and his excellent performance also changed his opinion.
There was no other way. It was the emperor and the queen who came, and these two people had objections to her. How could it not make Baochai feel anxious and uneasy.
Hearing this, Baochai looked a little embarrassed and said, "There is no good tea here, Qi Cun's mother and daughter-in-law."
Seeing this, Zhu Jinghong could only come to the old man's side. , squatting down to wait for the old man's instructions.
"Well, be careful"
"Go back and clean this place up quickly"
Xiang Yun and Zhen Qin have a good relationship, so he took the initiative to remind him at this moment .
"Old Thirteen, I asked you to be lazy in farming, and now you dare to quibble."
The emperor who rushed to the wheat field had already arrived in the direction of the grove and looked at the field. Three busy people inside.
"Why don't you see Old Thirteen?" Zhu Xianming asked.
Everyone present is not stupid, and they will not really let the queen drink plain water.
"Farming here is a waste of my youth, it is killing me, dad"
Although she thinks so in her heart, Zhen Qin is also a "scheming" person, so she Hearing her say, "I didn't mean that, don't accuse me wrongly."
After saying that, Zhu Xianming turned around and left, leaving Zhu Jinghong stunned where he was.Already, the situation was somewhat unexpected for him.
"It's okay to drink plain water"
"Excuse me, why do I have a bastard son like you?" Zhu Xianming scolded.
"Then you should be a heroic farmer"
When he said this, Zhu Jinghong behaved very naturally, no different from his previous rashness, and the meaning he expressed was The key point is the three words "general".
The girls left happily, and Zhu Xianming also entered the courtyard. Everyone except the queen kowtowed and saluted.
"Your Majesty, please take a seat."
