"Others are here to work, but these three brothers are here to get hurt!"

After the old man's new bedroom, Zhu Yunxi was wiping the dust from his head and face, and Zhu Fan said to the side.

"You're celebrating the New Year, I'm so scared! Zhu Gaochi's big butt is so big that he could crush his youngest son to death!"

"Haha!" The old man laughed out loud, pushed away Zhu Yunxi's hand wiping his face, and said with a smile, "Fortunately, the third child in the fourth family is thin!"

"Otherwise!" Zhu Yunxi asked with a smile.

"The fat is squeezed out!"

"Pfft!" Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but laugh, "Grandpa Huang, your metaphor is really vivid!"

"Those three brothers, you are such a treasure! Just watch, the fourth brother will suffer in the future!" As he said that, the slow smile on his face disappeared in an instant. The old man's face became a little melancholy.

Seeing this, Zhu Yunxi said, "Grandpa Huang, the princes and princes who have just finished their official duties and come into the palace are waiting outside!"

"Let them come in!" The old man smiled again, "We are celebrating the New Year. It will be difficult for them to let people with foreign surnames celebrate the New Year with us!"

"Although I have a foreign surname, your uncle is not a foreigner in your heart!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile. Remember in one second https://m.

wxsy.

"It's true!" said the old man. "When those scholars who suffered from the plague told us that we couldn't reuse our relatives, I said fart! Why can't we reuse our own brother-in-law? He's half a son-in-law!"

~~~

After waiting for a while, several princes-in-law, who had just finished their official duties and came into the palace to celebrate the New Year, stood with their heads bowed in the front hall of the old man's palace where he summoned his courtiers.

The first person to take the lead was the Prince Consort, Mei Yin, the consort of Princess Ning Guo.

He is the nephew of Hou Mei Sizu of Runan. Later, the Hou of Runan was sentenced to death due to the Hu Weiyong case. However, as his blood relative, not only was he not implicated by the old man, but he was recruited as his consort, and he was also the consort of his legitimate daughter. This shows that the old man

respect for him.

Mei Yin was a man capable of both literary and military skills, and he was able to govern the army and the people from horse to horse. Historically, this man was also one of the auxiliary ministers left to Emperor Jianwen by the old man.

Next is the Prince Consort Ouyang Lun, whose princess, Princess Anqing, is also the direct daughter of Empress Ma. This man was a Jinshi and became famous all over the world at a young age. Now he is studying the history of the Yuan Dynasty in the Hanlin Academy, which is the most noble job.

Then came Li Jian, the prince's consort, who was a fierce general in the army and had great military exploits.

"My ministers, please pay homage to Your Majesty, Your Highness the Grandson of the Emperor!"

As soon as the old man and Zhu Yunxi appeared, several consorts knelt down and saluted.

"My family members, please don't do this nonsense during the Chinese New Year!" The old man smiled, sat at the top, looked at his aunts, and said, "Give them some seats!"

"I don't dare!" Mei Yin, the eldest and the second brother-in-law of the consorts, said.

"Why don't you dare to sit down?" The old man said with a smile, "If we were in the folk world, my aunt is a pampered guest. Not only does the eldest son of the family have to be with him during the holidays, he also has to be entertained with good wine and good food! Haha!"

After the old man's words, the atmosphere in the palace became much more cheerful.

"Did you do all your errands well?" the old man asked again.

"Return to Your Majesty"

"Okay, okay, we have already said that we are our own family members, why are we so formal?" The old man looked down, "You are all good sons and gentlemen that we value, and you will be good ministers of our eldest grandson in the future, and you are also good friends of the Zhu family.

Son-in-law, why are you so heretical!"

He said with a straight face, "If you do this again, go back to your own homes to celebrate the New Year!"

Suddenly, several princes-in-law chatted a little, not knowing how to answer.

The old man can tell them not to follow the etiquette, but they dare not disobey it!

At this time, the consort Ouyang Lun said with a smile, "Your Majesty, this is my first time entering the palace to celebrate the New Year, and I don't know what the rules are in the palace. I went back to ask people for advice, and they said that there is no reason for my uncle to come empty-handed! So,

I just brought some small gifts!"

"What do you want to bring? What does our family lack?" The old man glanced at him.

"But I don't mean it with nothing!" Ouyang Lun said with a smile, "The fresh fish I bought at the morning market, the turkeys caught in the countryside, and the geese just killed in the village. I called someone and sent them directly to the kitchen!"

Hearing this, the old man put on a smile again on his face, "Your gift is not bad, it is much better than the frivolous thing!" After saying that, he glanced at the other consorts, "Look, this is what I'm doing.

How my father-in-law’s family celebrates the New Year. As for you, you may know that I’m here to celebrate the New Year, but those who don’t know may think that you’re here to suffer!”

"I'm telling you, you can have some fun marrying our daughter! Our daughters are all like flowers. They need to have good looks and figures, and we have a good father!"

"Slap your chests. When I married my daughter, did I receive any gift from you?"

This is a matter of fact. Not only did the old man not ask for a penny of betrothal gift for the prince-in-law he chose for the princesses, but he also opened the treasury to pay for it.

Zhu Yunxi smiled as he watched the old man talking to the consorts, and out of the corner of his eye saw the bastard sneaking in quietly.

"What's wrong?"

"Gong Cao Guo is here!"

Suddenly, Zhu Yunxi was a little surprised.

~~~

"It's Chinese New Year, you're not staying at home, why did you come to the palace?" In the side hall, Zhu Yunxi met Li Jinglong.

"Your Highness!" With a plop, Li Jinglong knelt in front of Zhu Yunxi, raised his head and said, "I am not an outsider!"

His appearance suddenly startled Zhu Yunxi.

Li Jinglong's eyes were swollen like peaches, as if he had been crying for several nights.

Moreover, his face was haggard and his voice was hoarse when he spoke.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhu Yunxi asked.

Li Jinglong burst into tears without saying a word, and burst into tears, unable to make a sound.

"Speak!" Zhu Yunxi said angrily, "What's going on? Tell me! You are a great prince..."

"Your Highness!" Li Jinglong choked with sobs and took a long time to say the two words, "I am not an outsider!"

"I don't think you are an outsider!" Zhu Yunxi was puzzled.

"I and Your Highness are close cousins, and my father is your Majesty's nephew!" Li Jinglong cried loudly.

"No one said it wasn't true!" Zhu Yunxi became more and more confused.

"But!" Li Jinglong burst into tears, "Why don't you call me my minister during the Chinese New Year!"

"Ah!" Zhu Yunxi was stunned for a long time, "You are like this because I didn't ask you to come to celebrate the New Year!"

"Your Highness, I am not an outsider. My father is the emperor's nephew, and the prince is my cousin..."

"Okay, okay, okay!" Zhu Yunxi said quickly, "I know it, I all know it. But this year's New Year is a family dinner for the Zhu family!"

Suddenly, Li Jinglong felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

"Your Highness, could it be that... I am really an outsider?" As he spoke, he hugged Zhu Yunxi's legs and cried loudly, "I am not an outsider! How can I ignore the Zhu family's family banquet. I

My father is the emperor's nephew, and the prince is my cousin..."

"Okay!" Zhu Yunxi was dumbfounded by him, "Okay, you can come to the palace to celebrate the New Year and bring your wife!"

"I obey the decree!" Li Jinglong immediately kowtowed, quietly stepped forward, and whispered mysteriously, "Your Highness, I have prepared New Year's goods for Your Majesty and you!"
