Then came the gift from the fourth child. Zhu Di presented a small wooden box made by himself, carved, lacquered and polished.
Zhu Yuanzhang opened the box and saw that it was a letter of appointment issued by the Governor's Office.
Wearing spectacles, he picked it up and read it. He said that Hong Ji was promoted because of his outstanding performance in the three tests of bow and crossbow in this year's autumn exercise.
He is a small flag officer of the Yulin Guards.
"Okay, okay, this kid, the Fourth, is really up to date." Zhu Yuanzhang handed it to Queen Ma for a look, and Queen Ma was also full of praise.
The fourth child had only been in the camp for ten days and was promoted from an ordinary soldier to an officer. How could the old father be unhappy?
Well, absolutely no one cares about him. It's not because his cousin is the top leader of the Metropolitan Government...
Then there is Lao Wu. His Royal Highness the King of Wu’s birthday gift to his old father was a bottle of Shiquan Dabu Pills concocted by himself.
"This is the Shiquan Dabu Pills made by Erchen, under the guidance of several imperial doctors, based on the Shiquan Dabu Decoction in "Taiping Huimin Hejiju Prescription", which is more effective and more convenient to take.
My father works hard day and night, and it is very hard. If you take one pill every day, you will be more energetic and full of energy." Lao Wu lowered his head and reported in a low voice.
"Hahaha. Well, he is also very filial." Zhu Yuanzhang said in his heart that this child is really sensible and knows that his old father is old. It seems that it is right for his son to study medicine. But on his face, he still said nonchalantly:
"But as a father, I am very energetic and my whole body is full of energy, so I don't need to eat this."
After hearing this, Queen Ma glanced at him and turned back.
Boss Zhu felt guilty for a while, and said to Eunuch Wu: "Old Wu, please keep it for now, the child is so considerate."
"Yes." Eunuch Wu responded and took the bottle of Shiquan Dabu Pills.
~~
Then came Lao Liu, who gave Lao Zhu a slap in the face.
To be precise, it is a palm made of sandalwood, with a cluster of short black and white hairs on the palm, and a long handle.
"What the hell is this?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked in confusion: "Why, you think the soles of your father's shoes are not satisfying, so you are going to bring your own torture devices?"
"Be a human being." Queen Ma rolled her eyes at him.
"This is a tickle I made. It's called 'Give You a Slap'. Use it if you like." Zhu Zhen curled his lips and looked away. "Throw it away if you don't care about it."
"It's such a waste to throw it away." Zhu Yuanzhang touched the hair on his head. It felt hard and not irritating. Based on his many years of scratching experience, this thing must be very suitable for scratching.
Then he couldn't wait to insert the "give you a slap" into the back of his collar, and tried it up and down in public.
"Oh~~~~" Boss Zhu couldn't help but make a strange sound. This feeling is not like Yu Ruyi, it can be compared with scratching with bamboo and wood. The touch of scratching is completely comparable to that of human fingernails, and the effect of relieving itching is even better than that of human hands.
superior.
"What kind of hair is this?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked curiously.
"I won't tell you." How dare Zhu Zhen speak nonsense. If he were to follow suit, the only giant panda in Nanjing would be bald in the blink of an eye.
"This kid is telling the truth." Zhu Yuanzhang thought he was still having trouble with him.
I wonder why this old man is so naughty. He obviously shows his filial piety to us, but he can’t express it properly?
Give him a slap in the face, he is really following his mother...
~~
There is no need to go into details about the gifts given to the sons later. Anyway, their mothers and concubines picked them out.
Now it's the minister's turn...
What made Zhu Yuanzhang a little embarrassed was that the South Korean prince, the leader of the officials, did not even send a birthday gift or congratulations.
Of course, no one came.
Although both the monarch and his ministers chose to ignore this matter, the more this happened, the heavier the shadow this matter cast in their hearts.
Then Duke Wei did not come to congratulate the emperor on his birthday. Although he prepared birthday gifts, he himself was in Nanjing...
Seeing his father looking at him inquiringly, the prince leaned into his ear and reported in a low voice:
"Last night, there was a leak in the Duke Wei's mansion."
"Is it on fire? Are you okay?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked in a low voice.
"Duke Wei himself is fine, but the embroidered building where his eldest daughter lived was burned down, and she was burned to death," the prince whispered.
"..." Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes became extremely complicated. There were doubts, surprises, and a hint of anger, but he suppressed them all.
~~
"What, Miss Deng is gone?" After the dynasty dispersed, King Qin also learned the bad news and was so shocked that he couldn't even stutter.
After being stunned for a long time, he suddenly grinned and wanted to cry.
Before she could cry out, the third and fourth elders tightly covered her mouth and dragged her into the deserted palace.
Zhu Zhen followed him in and closed the door with all his strength.
"You, what are you doing?" The second brother stared at the two younger brothers with wide eyes. If it hadn't been for them, he would have gone crazy just now.
"What day is it today that you are mourning?" The third child was so angry that he was speechless.
"That's right, it's Father's birthday. If you dare to cry in public, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as your butt blossoming!" the fourth child also said anxiously.
"You, you are full. A full man doesn't know that a hungry man is hungry." The second son sobbed aggrievedly: "Oh, oh, why is it so difficult for me to find a wife?"
"Fuck, I'm still a virgin." Lao Si said depressedly.
"Then you, you have hope. Miss Xu is doing well." The second child cried so much that his nose ran down. "I, as for me, there is no chance again."
The third child looked at the sixth child who followed him silently and signaled that he was almost ready to start.
"Second brother, I know you are feeling bitter." Zhu Zhen walked over to Zhu Ming and sat down.
"Yeah." Zhu Xi nodded vigorously, hugged his beloved Liu, and was about to cry again.
"Stop!" The third and fourth children hurriedly shouted stop. Firstly, they told him not to cry. Secondly, they told him not to exert too much force. Be careful to strangle the sixth child to death...
Lao Liu didn't die that easily, he just barely fainted.
"Second brother, please don't get excited, just listen to what I have to say." Zhu Zhen took the opportunity to break away from his second brother's bear hug, and kept a safe distance from him and said: "Today, all the officials are in the palace to congratulate my father the emperor on his birthday.
No matter how uncomfortable you feel, you can't cry out."
"Well..." The second child felt even more aggrieved and had to cover his mouth hard to prevent himself from crying.
"But we can't just let the second brother endure it." The third child said.
"Yeah, what can we do?" Although the fourth child didn't know what the two of them were going to do, the sense of cooperation he had developed in his hometown had not been lost.
"Guan Yunchang, the second master whom my second brother admires the most, scrapes his bones to cure the poison. How can he not complain about the pain?" Lao Liu continued.
"He invited people to drink wine and ate barbecue to brag!" the third child continued.
"Uh..." Zhu Zhen was stunned, thinking, weren't he playing chess with Ma Liang?
But he didn't dare to question the third brother's knowledge. He only doubted himself. Could it be that what I was reading was "Fake Three Kingdoms"?
Then I thought about it, it really is. "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is not the fake Three Kingdoms...
The real Guan Yu did scrape his bones to treat poison, but at that time, Hua Tuo's grave was covered with grass. It was the military doctor in the camp who scraped his bones to treat poison.
Moreover, Guan Gong didn't show off like playing chess with Ma Liang. He called everyone together to drink heavily to fight the pain.
ps: But it is true that Mr. Guan is awesome.
"Three Kingdoms" says that he "...Yu then stretched out his arm and asked the doctor to cut it. At that time, Yu asked the generals to eat and drink, and the blood flowed from his arm and filled the plate. While Yu was cutting and burning, he was drinking wine, talking and laughing freely."
