They were comfortable, but King Zhao Zhu Gaosui was extremely depressed. He had made a contribution to the rescue, but his father had not paid any attention to his merits. Could this be the end of it?
The two kings of Han, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Zhanji, didn't matter. One had everything, while the other had been favored by thousands of people since he was a child. Only the king of Zhao, Zhu Gaosui, had been neither good nor bad, with no merits or demerits. On weekdays, that's all. This time
His outstanding performance made him feel itchy in his heart. He couldn't sleep all night long, and he couldn't take the initiative to claim credit in front of his father. He felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
Although Zhu Muchen was in a much better mood when he arrived at the palace, the funeral arrangements for the soldiers had not yet been arranged. After paying homage to the unknown soldiers, Zhu Muchen looked at the graves that had been dug. Zhang Dahu and Zhang Sanhu were already kneeling down in mourning.
I sat in front of the grave and cried into tears.
"Get off the coffin!"
Following Zhu Muchen's order, two pear wood boxes were immediately placed into the grave pit, and then the soil covered the two boxes. Within a moment, a small bag bulged up, and the graves of Zhang Erhu and Zhang Sihu were arranged.
Above is Zhu Muchen's inscription.
The royal guards paid their respects one after another, and Zhu Muchen also burned incense. He turned around, listened to the low sobs behind him, and said: "Now that the end is done, the living must continue to walk, uphold their will, and defeat the enemy.
Why are you crying? Cheer up, my king."
"You are all wearing battle armor to protect the people of the world. Take off your battle armor. We are also brothers. But if we let the dead see us only crying and without will, I am afraid that they will be chilled by Jiuquan. Don't let it happen.
The dead are disappointed!"
Hearing this, Zhang Dahu and Zhang Sanhu took the lead to wipe away their tears, and other soldiers followed suit. The prince was right, the war has not stopped yet, they cannot relax and must live with the share of the dead.
Looking at the revitalized military spirit, Zhu Muchen let out a breath and looked at the coffin next to him. It was sent by Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu, who was waiting with his soldiers.
"On the battlefield of King Chu, you sent Uncle Ge to protect me, but he was unlucky... I thought that he was the person beside you, and even if he died, he wanted to be buried with his brothers in life, using fine agarwood.
Mu, built a coffin for him, which can be regarded as a favor for him to block the knife. It is really..."
Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han Dynasty, couldn't talk anymore. Although he was a royal heir, he also had a fiery heart. His benefactor was lying in the coffin, but he could do nothing. He could only search all over the capital to find agarwood. He found the best
A coffin maker can build a good coffin.
Looking at the guilty look on King Han's face, Zhu Muchen only remembered seeing Uncle Ge being injured, but there were too many things to do afterwards, and with King Han helping to take care of things, he didn't ask about the situation in each middle school, and he didn't expect Uncle Ge to go like this.
Yes, this is the man who followed his father. He also went with his father. Zhu Muchen looked very sad, but still gathered his strength, cupped his fists and said: "Thank you, King Han, for sending me here. Uncle Ge blocked the sword for you. This is his decision."
, the King of Han does not need to blame himself."
The coffin was lowered into the pit, the hero fell to the ground, and the trumpet was blown. The scene was very sad.
Zhu Muchen had arranged for the soldiers, and the next day, Zhu Di arranged a banquet. In addition to the senior ministers with high positions, there were also generals who marched with the emperor. In addition, Zhu Muchen's family was specially invited to attend the banquet tonight.
Xiao Jingzi, who came to convey the emperor's oral instructions, had a smile on his face, "Your Majesty, please tell me that the King of Chu will bring his concubines and children to the palace for the banquet. This is the kindness of the Emperor. The previous vassal kings were not kind. I hope that the King of Chu will
Think carefully and let your family prepare quickly."
After thanking Zhu Di for the reminder from Xiao Jingzi, Zhu Muchen was also quite shocked. Even if the vassal king returned to Beijing to report his duties, he would still have to be summoned by the emperor, let alone his family members. If not summoned by the palace, the female family members would not be allowed to enter the palace in their lifetime, let alone those around him.
The three women, according to the law, are all concubines, and their status is humble in the eyes of the world. Now the emperor is showing kindness to him, which means he thinks highly of him.
The three concubines did not expect that one day they would be able to enter the majestic palace, and as members of King Chu's family, they were moved to tears. Xu Xin even held Zhu Muchen's hand and asked, "My lord, what should I wear at the banquet?"
What clothes are you wearing? So that they don’t overwhelm the guest and don’t disgrace your identity?”
Seeing how nervous they were, Zhu Muchen smiled. Aunt Su happened to come over after watching the three children. She had served the princess by her side during her lifetime and was very familiar with the rules in the palace. "The prince is a big man, and he wasted his time in the past few years."
, and we are marching and fighting with the emperor later, so how can we know about the affairs of my daughter’s family? Why don’t the three masters follow me here, so that you will not dominate the banquet, and you will be able to gain face for the prince."
As for the three children, Zhu Muchen did not dress up specially. He asked the maids to dress as usual and try to wrap them as thickly as possible to prevent the children from getting cold!
At the banquet, the King of Chu arrived, and the courtiers suddenly had different thoughts. When the King of Chu came back from the march, the emperor's attitude changed greatly. These courtiers were all good people, and naturally they would not go against the emperor's favorite people.
First, he paid respect to the emperor and celebrated the victory, and then the courtiers came to pay respect to the king of Chu. Zhu Muchen knew that now the emperor would no longer doubt him, so he could accept it, but he held Zhu Hao in his arms.
Ran frowned and refused, "Hao Ran is in my arms. If I drink too much and smell of alcohol on my body, I'm afraid the child will cry and let everyone down."
Using the little prince as a shield, the courtiers were too embarrassed to persuade him anymore. The superior Zhu Di was attracted by the movement here, and his eyes immediately lit up. He saw that the little prince was wearing a red tiger head suit. He was not afraid of people and waved his little hands.
He looked so cute. Zhu Di quickly waved his hand, "King Chu, show me your little prince. There hasn't been such a small child in this palace for many years."
Hearing this, the King of Han and King Zhao fell silent. In the past few years, their children were as big as this, but their father didn't like them so much!
Zhu Muchen stood up and hugged the child. Today was a celebration banquet. There were not so many rules, so he left the child in Xiao Jingzi's hands.
As a young eunuch, Xiao Jingzi is a rootless person. He does not have the blessing to hold the princes and princesses. As for the princes' mansions, he has no chance to go. This is the first time he holds a child. He is careful to hold the child.
The body is also too soft, as if holding a rare jade, for fear of being damaged.
His movements were too slow, which made Zhu Di very worried. "Xiao Jingzi, please hold the child well and don't bump it, otherwise I will question you."
Zhu Di personally hugged Zhu Haoran, but the child was not afraid at all. He did not cry or make trouble, and even smiled at him. He was full of heroism and very lovable at first sight. Zhu Di also felt a little fond of him and deliberately teased him.
, but no matter how provocative he was, the child was not angry, and even held his finger, giggling, and his innocent childish voice made Zhu Di's worries disappear for most of the past few days, and he was in a very good mood.
Xiao Jingzi, who was behind the emperor, stood on tiptoe to watch, smiling from ear to ear, sighing in his heart that King Chu was so lucky.
The ministers below were very envious. Everyone here was not so lucky, but the emperor was happy, so they were spared the blame and started laughing.
King Zhu Gaoxu of Han Dynasty was envious. When his son was born, he remembered that his father hugged him, but the child only cried. His father never liked him. He only hugged him for a while and then let go without showing a smile. Now King Chu's child
It feels very uncomfortable to win the favor of my father.
Next to him, King Zhao Zhu Gaosui felt the same way. He picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. His heart felt astringent, as if he had crushed a lemon, and turned his head to other places without looking at it.
Seeing his father's amusement, Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi approached him and calmly said, "Father, he likes King Chu's children so much that he wants to hug him too!"
Initially, Zhu Di didn't want to give it and looked very unhappy, but several old ministers came up to propose a toast, so he had to carefully put Zhu Haoran in his arms into the prince's arms.
Zhu Gaochi hugged the child and immediately understood why his father liked this child. Normally, a child of a few months old would either cry or make fuss when it comes into the arms of a stranger, but he is kind and will make you happy. Zhu Gaochi held it behind him
The eunuch handed over the wave drum and played with it for a while, feeling that he had some affinity with Zhu Haoran.
In full view of everyone, the father and son showed extraordinary affection for the little prince. Zhu Muchen was also happy for the child to win the favor of the emperor and the prince, but except for the first few glasses of wine, he didn't drink a sip.
He only ate the fruits on the table.
Zhu Di dismissed several old ministers and looked at the prince with leisurely eyes. Zhu Gaochi was also a person who knew how to look, and placed Zhu Haoran in his father's arms.
However, Zhu Haoran's little hand grabbed the tassel of the jade pendant around Zhu Di's waist. He played with the golden tassel in his hand. Everyone else was startled. Xiao Jingzi was about to step forward and take it off, but Zhu Di scolded,
"Children are playing around. Why are you joining in the fun? Get out of the way. The child is only a few months old and his little arms and legs are small. If you pull them, it's not serious or serious. If you hurt your skin, be careful."
Xiao Jingzi: "..."
This is so heartbreaking!
Everyone else was shocked. The emperor was so kind to this little prince of King Chu that he really didn't care.
Zhu Di seemed to think that others could not feel the shock. He teased the child, suddenly raised his head and said in a very serious tone, "King Chu, you are already a grown man. Don't delay in writing the memorial to confirm the heir apparent!"
At this time, everyone had different thoughts. Bai Xiaoman and Shang Ziyou couldn't help but glance at Xu Xin secretly. Her son became the heir, and the mother is more valuable than the son. It was true in these years, and Xu Xin naturally became
The princess is here.
Both of them couldn't help but hate that their stomachs were not up to par. Although they were jealous, they did not have any bad thoughts. Sister Xu's belly was up to par, and she took great care of them when they were pregnant during the disaster in the palace. Even if Sister Xu became the princess, she would not suppress her.
they.
Although the two of them have been with the prince for a long time, it was Sister Xu who followed her mother and concubine to control the situation in the palace during the most difficult period of the palace. After learning from her mother and concubine for a long time, she has the qualifications to be the mistress of the house. Sister Xu is the third sister.
Among all people, who is the most suitable candidate to become the princess!?
