He walked towards the mansion with Zhu Muzhen in his arms, passed through Yimen and then came to Chengyun Gate. Zhu Jinghong saw Baochai and others through the door.
"Mom...Dad...is back!" Zhu Muzhen's crisp voice echoed.
Seeing her husband returning home with his son in his arms, Baochai had mixed feelings in her heart. Thinking of the hardships of supporting her alone over the past year, she wanted to throw herself into Zhu Jinghong's arms to feel supported.
But she is a princess. With so many people watching, she must pay attention to her propriety.
So Baochai did not move rashly, but walked forward with a light smile and light steps.
Everyone among the women present missed Zhu Jinghong extremely, but their emotions were very stable, just because Baochai had done well.
"The prince has not returned for a whole year since he left. If he doesn't come back... I thought you didn't want this family anymore!"
Although there are many women around him now, Baochai Zhu Jinghong still has a transcendent status in his heart.
Seeing her, Zhu Jinghong felt relieved, and then the intimacy became stronger and stronger.
The palace has a lot of things to do. Welcoming guests and sending them off this year, as well as managing the whole family, are all very tedious and tiring tasks.
The result of this year was that Baochai kept everything in order and did not worry Zhu Jinghong at all.
So Zhu Jinghong is grateful to Baochai, and he does not regret his impulsive move back then.
"Princess, I have come all the way back, and you have complained about me as soon as I arrived. It would be too harsh on me!"
"Ouch... Your Majesty is such a talkative person. I can’t afford to be a concubine. You must know that we, weak women, are alone and helpless in the capital. You just leave and ignore us, and you don’t allow us to complain!”
“Hahaha... what the princess said is reasonable! "How about I apologize to you?"
"This concubine is even more unworthy of me!" Baochai said with a smile.
Zhu Jinghong glanced at the other women present and said with a smile: "The princess said it was hard, what do you have to say?"
The first one to speak was Ke Qing. Hear her say: "The princess has suffered a lot, and thanks to her, my life is going smoothly!"
"Yes, yes, Sister Bao is really working hard!" Zhen Qin followed closely. Open your mouth.
While joking with everyone, Zhu Jinghong looked at the little girl behind Yinglian.
Yinglian noticed her gaze, so she pulled her daughter in front of her, leaned over and encouraged: "Rou'er, go and kowtow to your father!"
One year old Normally, a half-year-old child would not be trouble-free, but after all, he was born in a royal palace, and adults usually teach him more, so he is relatively precocious.
Hearing her mother’s reminder, Zhu Xianrou timidly took two steps forward, then knelt down and kowtowed to Zhu Jinghong.
"Kowtow...meet...Father!"
Zhu Jinghong loved this scene so much that he put Zhu Muzhen on the ground and stepped forward to hug Zhu Xianrou.
OneWhile teasing the child, Zhu Jinghong looked at Yinglian and said, "This girl is really sensible, Yinglian... you taught her very well!" Dare to take credit!"
This is really not a compliment. Baochai took on the responsibility of a legitimate mother and treated Yinglian's children as her own.
At this time, Zhen Qin and others also gathered around. They missed Zhu Jinghong very much and had wanted to talk to Zhu Jinghong for a long time.
At this time, Baochai had no intention of monopolizing Zhu Jinghong. After all, he had a lot of time at night.
While everyone was talking, Zhu Jinghong went to the inner hall with a pair of children in his arms and a smile on his face.
Zhu Jinghong was extremely happy with his children, his victory in battles, his wife and concubines being harmonious, and his parents caring about him.
Everyone entered the Yin'an Hall, which was Zhu Jinghong's bedroom. The furnishings and decorations were exactly the same as when he left.
After sitting down, looking at the two children who were very peaceful in Zhu Jinghong's arms, Baochai smiled and said: "Your children are looking forward to your return every day. Could it be that the prince is in vain this time?" Start?"
"Of course not, I collected a dozen big boxes of all kinds of fun things, especially those that can be found on the sea and islands!"
"That's pretty much it!"
At this moment, the baby girl's cry sounded in the hall, and then he looked at the cradle not far away.
"This girl is crying with so much anger, I'm afraid she is not a quiet woman!" Zhu Jinghong said with emotion.
At this time Baochai interjected: "Like father, like daughter!"
In the current palace, the only person who dares to make a joke about Zhu Jinghong is Baochai. No one else.
Walking to the cradle, Zhu Jinghong picked up his little daughter, looked at the chubby little face, and said with a smile: "It’s not good for girls to imitate me!"
"You can't say that. Didn't Sheng'er learn Qi Qi Bafen, and now she's doing well!"
Baochai only said half of this, and the last sentence was "The emperor's daughter does not have to worry about getting married." .
It’s not time for MVP settlement yet, so of course we can’t say these things.
"Haha...it's best if you don't learn anyway!"
Unfortunately, after Zhu Jinghong picked her up, Zhu Wenjing cried even louder, and finally had to hand it over to Ke Qing.
In Yin'an Hall, everyone chatted for an hour to relieve their lovesickness before they dispersed.
Then, only Zhu Jinghong and his wife were left in the hall.
"In the future...you won't go to sea again, will you?" Baochai asked.
“Why do you ask that!”
“You can escape even if you lose in a land battle, but how can you escape at sea!”
“Pass it back I know all the battle reports and the military reports of Jinyiwei... I know how dangerous the naval battle is, and how you took the risk. Do you know how worried I am?"
Zhu Jinghong sent many letters to the capital, the contents of which are Basically, he reported good news but not bad news, but he still didn'tCan hide Baochai.
There is no way, because of his personal influence, the energy of the princess Baochai is also unimaginably great.
"Alas... I think I won't go again!"
In fact, not only the naval battle, but also the land battle Zhu Jinghong didn't want to go again, or he didn't have much intention to go. big.
First, he didn’t want to take another risk, and second, he didn’t want to worry his family... The third and most important reason was that he couldn’t afford to lose.
By commanding several large-scale battles, Lien Zhan and Lianjie established a glorious image for him and gathered a large number of supporters around him. He himself no longer urgently needed to gain military exploits.
War is risky. Every battle he fought before made his scalp numb when he thought about it. He didn't know how he survived it.
If he fails to lead the army again, it will be extremely harmful to him. Of course, he will not go if he can, and avoid fighting if he can.
As you become an experienced driver, you will become more cautious... The principles are the same.
"That's good. You're not bad at military service anyway. It's best if you can live a stable life!" Baochai said.
"I think old man..."
"Hey!"
Zhu Jinghong was about to speak, but was interrupted by Baochai, who looked outside. Sweeping is to remind Zhu Jinghong to be careful that the walls have ears.
Although the palace has been screened by Baochai many times, she still cannot guarantee that there are no eyes and ears in her palace. < /p>
Then the two of them went to the back garden of the palace without letting the eunuchs and maids follow them.
"When I returned to Beijing this time, the old man's reaction was normal. He neither summoned the courtiers nor held a grand celebration banquet. I really can't understand it!"
Baochai replied Said: "A few days ago, the report for your expansion of the navy, and the petition for merit... The court was in turmoil for a few days, and it was finally suppressed!"
Zhu Jinghong knew about this, and just heard him reply: "Maybe this is the reason!"
"I met today. The old man asked me to go home and study hard, but his words were a little different from before, and his attitude was also different. Much better..."
"What else can I say...at least I can know what others mean when they scold me!"
Hearing this, Baochai also smiled. He replied: "In the past, Sun Quan's encouragement to learn was nothing more than that!"
Zhu Jinghong, however, had no intention of joking. Instead, he stopped, turned around and said with a serious face: "You said... the old man can't really You want to pass the throne to me!"
"This..."
After thinking for a while, Baochai replied: "I can't explain... Your heart is like the sea, who can figure it out? It’s clear!”
This is indeed true. People’s hearts are the hardest to guess, let alone the emperor’s mind, not to mention that his mind can change.
Zhu Jinghong just has a feeling, but this feeling is notIndeed, there is even no basis for it.
Hearing what Baochai said at this moment, Zhu Jinghong gave up his optimistic thoughts and warned himself to act more steadily in the future.
This is the tragedy of the royal family. Prince Rui has no sense of security, and neither does Zhu Jinghong.
"Yes...we must not take it lightly until the last moment!" Zhu Jinghong said in a deep voice.
Looking up at Zhu Jinghong, Baochai asked solemnly: "There is something I don't know whether I should ask!"
"Say it!"
Baochai said: "If one day the Holy One dies, and someone is trying to get a powerful position...are you sure that the chaos will be rectified?"
Who is trying to get a powerful position, this matter itself is not important. , what matters is whether you can sit on it.
As long as he, Zhu Jinghong, takes the throne, even if the crown prince inherits the throne, it can be labeled as treason and treason!
Faced with this question, Zhu Jinghong asked himself, thinking about all kinds of people.
"Yes!" Zhu Jinghong replied.
But the premise is that the emperor is dead.
His confidence lies in the fact that the bodyguards are the Northern Four Guards of the Zhijun Army. Twenty thousand troops are now stationed in Gyeonggi.
This is one of the most elite soldiers in the Ming Dynasty. Almost all the officers and officers in it are his people. He is confident that these people will follow him to "King Qin".
As for other guards and troops, as well as the troops stationed further away in the Beijing camp, there are also many generals who are his old subordinates and playmates. Although he is not absolutely sure that these people will be followed, he has a lot of confidence. Make sure they don't move rashly.
The most important thing is that the four imperial guards, the Imperial City Left and Right Guards and the Long Jin Left and Right Guards, have many of his fans, allowing him to quickly control the palace and the imperial city.
The only thing that hindered him was the Five-City Military and Horse Division stationed in the capital. It had 10,000 troops and horses, and Zhu Jinghong had little intervention in it.
But the obstacles here are not very big, because the overall situation is that among the several princes, the powerful nobles generally support Zhu Jinghong, and more than half of the middle and upper-level officers of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division are from nobles.
"That's good!" Baochai nodded, feeling more and more at ease.
Continuing to walk forward, Zhu Jinghong said: "Since I can definitely succeed, the old man should pass it on to me instead of having other ideas!"
Baochai analyzed: "You are too much of a threat. I'm afraid the Holy One will have to guard against you even more!"
"He asked me to study, but he still wants to restrain me!" Zhu Jinghong sighed.
No matter how close the father and son were before, it was inevitable that they would become separated when power was involved. Trust was no longer there.
Taking a few steps forward, Baochai reminded: "I told you not to be careless. Dong Gong and Lao Liu's family have often interacted with Xun Chen in recent years. They may not be able to do bad things at critical times. !”
Zhu Jinghong can also think of these. Although he does not think that he will capsize in the gutter, he also admits that this possibility always exists.
ThisJust like a sore on the body, although it is not fatal but it is annoying, the best way is to squeeze it out as soon as possible.
Zhu Jinghong had such an idea, and he happened to have such an opportunity.
Miaoyu and her party are what he thinks is an opportunity.
So at this moment, he thought of Ni Er and it was time to ask this guy to report the situation.
Secretly writing down this matter, Zhu Jinghong responded casually: "I know this!"
The couple walked forward for a while, and the scenery along the way was indeed unique, which made Zhu Jinghong It's a feast for the eyes.
"When you went to the East Palace today, what did the prince and others say?"
"They were very polite. They said some polite words, sat for a while and then left!"
"I'm afraid they'll hate you to death!" Baochai said with a smile.
"I didn't even dare to drink a sip of his tea!" Zhu Jinghong replied.
Hearing this, Baochai could only sigh. At this time, she thought of many things in the future.
"By the way, why don't you see Baoqin?"
"This girl is sick and has a fever... It's not surprising that the disease has entered the body after a long journey. I've settled in!"
"Yes!" Zhu Jinghong nodded.
"It seems...you also have crooked thoughts about Baoqin?" Baochai asked with a smile.
“It’s just a matter of concern, look at what you said!” Zhu Jinghong denied it.
Baochai asked again: "When do you plan to bring Lin Yatou into the mansion?"
Zhu Jinghong replied: "You can enter the mansion at any time, but it was less than a year after the death of the Supreme Emperor. , it’s not easy to give her status, she can only enter the house as a guest!”
If you just give her the status of a concubine, you only need to go through the procedures here at Baochai, there is no need at all! Will be affected by the death of the Supreme Emperor.
What Zhu Jinghong said means that if Daiyu enters the palace, she will have to be a selected attendant and be canonized by the Queen.
"When Lin Yatou enters the house, what position do you plan to give her?" Baochai asked again.
Although she had already guessed the answer, she still wanted to confirm it.
"There is still one vacant concubine, what do you think?" Zhu Jinghong asked.
Baochai smiled and replied: "As long as the prince likes it, let alone the concubine, even if you let me make room... it's not impossible!"
"Look at you Say this..." Zhu Jinghong looked dissatisfied.
"You are joking, please don't be angry, Your Majesty!" Baochai quickly comforted him.
Then she asked again: "As soon as I come, I will give it to the concubines. Aren't you afraid that they will be upset? The queen mother may not agree!"
"It's better to appoint the concubine first and wait. Then seal it again in one or two years, so no one can say anything!" Baochai proposed an idea.
She was definitely not trying to suppress Daiyu, but was really thinking about Zhu Jinghong. This was indeed much more prudent.
Zhu Jinghong explained: "Lin Ruhai is a Tanhua and a Qingliu official. I chose Lin Yatou as my concubine because I also want to tell the world's scholars thatI have the intention to accept them! ”
Such an answer left Baochai speechless. This is indeed a very good reason.
The more unconventional it is, the more attitude it shows.
At this time Baochai replied: "It all depends on how you handle it. I don't understand these big things! "
Pull Baochai into his arms and pat her butt, Zhu Jinghong said: "You are so smart, why don't you understand?
Looking up at her husband, Baochai said: "How can I be smarter than the prince and bring so many beautiful women to my house?"
Looking at Baochai in his arms, Zhu Jinghong smiled and said: "Isn't it because a good princess is helping? As the saying goes, a husband and wife who work together can cut through gold!"
