Chapter 201: Zhu Xiongying: Yun Tong, if Big Brother is not around in the future

Subsequently!

Lady Lv seemed to have thought of something, and then smiled at Shen Yuer: "Although I am a woman and don't understand much about the great affairs of the country, the name of the Champion Marquis is like thunder to my ears."

"The entire Ying Tian City has spread it."

"Especially my son Yunwen, who has long admired the Champion Marquis."

"Especially the Champion Marquis is good at commanding troops, and is hailed as the first fierce warrior of the Great Ming. If the Champion Marquis returns one day, I want Yunwen to learn from the Champion Marquis."

Hearing this.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the main seat, frowned slightly.

Zhu Biao's face on the side also changed slightly.

Lady Lv!

Still too anxious.

What she showed this time was the intention to win over Zhu Ying for her son.

Seemingly using her son's admiration to get closer, it was actually for winning over.

In front of Zhu Yuanzhang and his son, this was naturally a very small trick.

And Shen Yuer, facing Lady Lv's sudden words, was also a bit abrupt. Although she didn't understand too much about the officialdom, she understood one thing: her husband's current title and glory were all bestowed by imperial power, and ever since the former Imperial Eldest Grandson passed away, although the Donggong's internal affairs were managed by Lady Lv, she was still a concubine, and her son was also born of a concubine.

And the legitimate son Zhu Yun Tong had a higher status instead.

If her husband were to enter this vortex, it would not be a good thing for the family.

Just when Shen Yuer didn't know how to refuse.

"Alright."

Zhu Biao opened his mouth, his face carrying a bit of ugliness, and said seriously: "The Champion Marquis is a battlefield warrior, good at commanding troops and fighting with weapons. He focuses on killing the enemy to win. Asking him to teach the imperial princes and grandsons is too much of a waste of talent."

"If Yunwen wants to learn martial arts, the palace will naturally arrange someone."

This opening.

Immediately pulled Lady Lv back to reality. When she saw Zhu Biao's ugly face, Lady Lv bowed immediately: "It is the daughter-in-law who overstepped, please forgive me, Husband."

"Biao'er."

"Today is a family banquet."

"Wait a while, the many younger brothers and sisters will all come."

"No need for this." Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand and said with a smile.

"Yes."

Zhu Biao nodded and didn't say anything more.

"Someone."

"Grant seats."

Zhu Yuanzhang shouted loudly.

Responding.

A kind of eunuch and palace maid moved chairs into the Wenyuan Pavilion hall one by one.

"All take your seats."

Zhu Biao waved his hand at Lady Lv.

"The daughter-in-law accepts the decree." Lady Lv immediately responded respectfully.

Then she gave a wink to the three Zhu Yunwen brothers and walked to the chairs on the side, preparing to take a seat.

But Zhu Yun Tong still stood in place, lowering his head, staring blankly at Zhu Wenxi. Even though he was just scolded, his feelings in his heart seemed to have not subsided yet. The tears he wiped away were still sliding down.

Looking at the person who looked so much like his big brother, even if it was a young child, Zhu Yun Tong also completely regarded him as his big brother, full of grievances.

Ten years.

He had lost his big brother for more than ten years.

The words his big brother said to him back then came true, his big brother was really gone.

Seeing this!

Zhu Yun Tong was truly moved to cry from the heart.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao looked at each other, and at this moment, they didn't stop him.

"Perhaps."

"Yun Tong really missed his big brother."

"After Yun Tong was born, because of him, the daughter-in-law died in childbirth, which also made Biao'er dislike him, and even ignored him. If it weren't for Xiongying taking care of him, perhaps Yun Tong wouldn't have grown so big."

"Forget it, forget it."

"Yun Tong is also true to his feelings."

"Cannot be blamed." Zhu Yuanzhang sighed secretly in his heart and didn't say anything.

Beside, Zhu Biao was also looking at Zhu Yun Tong, crying so aggrievedly, so true to his feelings, and also sighed, shook his head, and didn't say anything more.

After all.

The weight of Zhu Xiongying in Zhu Yun Tong's heart was needless to say.

The elder brother is like a father!

Although Zhu Xiongying was young back then, he had always been practicing it.

"This damn bastard really treated this Zhu Wenxi as Zhu Xiongying."

"Embarrassing."

"That's good."

"Let him embarrass himself in front of the Emperor and the Crown Prince."

"That way the Emperor and the others will become more and more disappointed in this bastard."

Lady Lv looked at Zhu Yun Tong's performance at this moment, her eyes full of disgust.

However, at this moment in the Wenyuan Pavilion hall, she naturally didn't show it. In front of Zhu Yuanzhang, she always maintained the appearance of a good daughter-in-law who knew etiquette, and in front of Zhu Biao, she performed even more understandingly.

In front of Zhu Yuanzhang and his son, they didn't know what Lady Lv's true face was like.

And seeing Lady Lv not opening her mouth.

Zhu Yunwen on the side was also very honest and closed his mouth, just watching quietly.

"Zhu Yun Tong."

"The legitimate son of the Crown Prince, the younger brother of the former Imperial Eldest Grandson."

"It seems Xi'er is really similar to the former Imperial Eldest Grandson, actually being able to make this Young Master Zhu Yun Tong so sad."

"Sigh."

Shen Yuer watched this scene and couldn't help but feel emotion.

If it were outside.

Shen Yuer would also come out to comfort him. But at this moment in the Wenyuan Pavilion hall, the Emperor and the Crown Prince didn't speak, so she naturally didn't have the qualification to speak.

The closer she was to the center of the Great Ming's power, the more cautious Shen Yuer became. She didn't have any arrogance because her husband was now glorious, but was cautious above all. She didn't want to affect her husband because of herself.

"Uncle."

"Don't cry."

"Let me wipe it for you."

Looking at Zhu Yun Tong who was crying like this, Zhu Wenxi seemed to be very concerned.

After fumbling in his arms, he took out a small cloth and gently stroked Zhu Yun Tong's face.

"I... can I hug you?"

Feeling Zhu Wenxi's kindness, this was something Zhu Yun Tong hadn't felt in the Donggong for a long time. At this moment, with red eyes, he asked tentatively.

"I'll hug you."

"Comfort you."

Zhu Wenxi smiled slightly, walked forward directly, and hugged Zhu Yun Tong with his small hands.

At this moment.

Zhu Yun Tong felt as if he had truly felt the beautiful moment when his big brother hugged him and traveled through the Donggong and the imperial palace.

"Big Brother."

"Perhaps."

"The person before me is really your reincarnation."

"Too similar."

"Are you here to see if I'm doing well?"

"Big Brother..."

Zhu Yun Tong muttered in a low voice.

After a while.

Zhu Yun Tong came back to his senses, wiped away the tear stains, and slowly let go of Zhu Wenxi.

Then stood up and knelt directly toward Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao: "Imperial Grandfather, Father!"

"Yun Tong was rude."

Saying this.

Zhu Yun Tong bowed, but his eyes were also filled with fear.

At this moment.

He lowered his head, timid, appearing extremely unbearable.

"Alright."

"Yun Tong, this is also your true feelings. Although rude, I forgive you."

"Rise."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled slightly and raised his hand.

"Thank you, Imperial Grandfather."

"Thank you, Father."

Zhu Yun Tong stood up slowly, lowering his head.

"Yun Tong."

"I haven't seen you for more than half a year, right?"

"Are you doing well in the Donggong?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a smile. In front of his grandchildren, he still performed very kindly.

Hearing this question.

Zhu Yun Tong's peripheral vision immediately glanced at Lady Lv.

He had an impulse to tell all the encounters in the Donggong over the years.

It seemed.

This was also because Zhu Wenxi was here, as if he saw his big brother, giving him strength.

But Lady Lv was very smart, immediately saw something from Zhu Yun Tong's expression, she glared, then pretended to cough, and picked up a silk scarf.

After seeing this silk scarf.

Zhu Yun Tong's face changed, and a look of worry surged in his eyes.

Just for a moment.

Zhu Yun Tong suppressed the impulse in his heart.

But the gazes of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao fell on Lady Lv for a moment. Clearly, Lady Lv's action just now was a bit deliberate.

"Imperial Grandfather."

"Yun Tong is doing very well in the Donggong." Zhu Yun Tong could only brace himself and reply respectfully.

"It's good that you are doing well."

"You kid, I know your personality likes to keep everything in your heart, because of past things, you have no heart for many things, and even don't follow the teacher's teaching."

"Don't be like this in the future."

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a tone of instruction, temporarily suppressing Lady Lv's strangeness just now.

"Grandson accepts the instruction." Zhu Yun Tong bowed respectfully, except for grievances, there was nothing else in his heart.

Everything in the Donggong.

This was all what Lady Lv wanted them to see.

Because it was the Donggong, where the current Crown Prince was.

So the Embroidered Uniform Guards that spread all over the world were not in the Donggong, because Zhu Biao hated the Embroidered Uniform Guards

He then stood up and knelt directly before Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao: "Imperial Grandfather, Father!"

"Yun Tong has been impolite."

As he spoke.

Zhu Yuntong kowtowed once, but his eyes also carried a hint of panic.

"Enough."

"Yun Tong, this is just your true nature. Although you were impolite, We forgive you."

"Rise."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled slightly and raised a hand.

"Thank you, Imperial Grandfather."

"Thank you, Father."

Zhu Yuntong slowly stood up, keeping his head lowered.

"Yun Tong."

"It seems We haven't seen you for over half a year, have We?"

"Are you doing well in the Donggong?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a smile; in front of his grandchildren, he still appeared very kind.

Upon hearing this question.

Zhu Yuntong's peripheral vision immediately darted toward Lady Lv.

He had an impulse to tell them everything he had endured in the Donggong over these years.

It seemed.

This was also because Zhu Wenxi was here; seeing his elder brother seemed to give him strength.

But Lady Lv was very clever; she immediately sensed something from Zhu Yuntong's expression. She glared at him directly, then pretended to cough, and casually picked up a silk handkerchief.

Upon seeing this handkerchief.

Zhu Yuntong's expression changed, and worry welled up in his eyes.

In just an instant.

Zhu Yuntong suppressed the impulse that had been in his heart.

But the gazes of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao fell upon Lady Lv for a moment; clearly, Lady Lv's action just now was somewhat deliberate.

"Imperial Grandfather."

"Yun Tong is doing very well in the Donggong," Zhu Yuntong could only force himself to reply respectfully.

"As long as you are doing well."

"You child, We know your personality; you like to bottle everything up inside. Because of past events, you have no heart for many things, and you don't even follow the teachings of your tutors."

"You must not be like this in the future."

Zhu Yuanzhang said in a tone of instruction, temporarily suppressing the anomaly Lady Lv had just shown.

"Grandson accepts the teaching," Zhu Yuntong bowed respectfully, his heart filled with nothing but grievance.

Everything in the Donggong.

This was all that Lady Lv wanted them to see.

Because it was the Donggong, where the current Crown Prince resided.

Therefore, the Embroidered Uniform Guard, which spread throughout the world, was not in the Donggong, because Zhu Biao deeply detested the all-pervasive nature of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Zhu Yuanzhang naturally would not use the Embroidered Uniform Guard to monitor his son, the successor; it was precisely because of this that Zhu Yuanzhang was unclear about the situation in the Donggong.

And for so many years.

Ever since the Crown Princess passed away, everything in the Donggong had been managed by Lady Lv; one could imagine how she had controlled the Donggong.

"When will your two sisters arrive?"

"Why didn't they come with you?"

Zhu Biao asked at this moment.

He still had quite a few concubines, among whom were some children.

Before Zhu Yuntong could speak.

Lady Lv immediately said respectfully: "Husband! The younger sisters are still preparing. This concubine came a step ahead of them; in a while, the sisters will arrive."

"En."

Zhu Biao nodded and did not ask any further. Today was the imperial family's pre-New Year banquet.

Once before the New Year, and once during the New Year.

It could be considered a reunion of descendants.

"Yun Tong."

"Take your seat."

Zhu Biao said to Zhu Yuntong with an indifferent expression.

"Yes."

Zhu Yuntong responded respectfully and then walked toward Lady Lv's side.

These chairs.

Were naturally arranged according to rank.

As a legitimate son.

He naturally sat beside Lady Lv; even the three brothers of Zhu Yunwen had to sit one position further back.

When Zhu Yuntong sat down.

Lady Lv's cold, sinister gaze immediately fell upon him.

"Base-born brat."

"You really have ideas."

"Fortunately, I was prepared and used that base maid to threaten him; otherwise, he really might have spouted nonsense in this great hall."

"Although the Emperor and the Crown Prince might not necessarily believe him, they might perhaps investigate."

"Indeed."

"Father was right."

"Before everything is completely under control, the precautions against this base-born brat cannot be lax; otherwise, I really might be harmed by him."

At this moment.

Lady Lv felt nothing but anger toward Zhu Yuntong in her heart, along with intense coldness.

If it were not for being inside the imperial palace right now, Lady Lv might have really scolded Zhu Yuntong directly.

"Yuer, take Xi'er and sit by my side."

Seeing Shen Yuer still standing in the hall without sitting, seemingly unsure where she should sit, Zhu Biao smiled immediately and beckoned Shen Yuer to sit in a position beside him.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"This subject's wife will just sit further back; I dare not overstep by sitting in the position beside Your Highness."

Upon seeing this position, Shen Yuer immediately declined politely; she naturally upheld a low profile and did not want to be arrogant due to favor.

"The Crown Prince has spoken."

"Sit."

"You are the wife of our Great Ming's dignified Champion Marquis, and the mother of the Crown Prince's adopted grandson; you are qualified," Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.

Seeing this.

Shen Yuer could only bow and offer thanks: "This subject's wife thanks the Emperor, thanks the Crown Prince."

Afterward, she could only walk over and slowly take her seat.

"Xi'er, come here to Grandfather."

Watching Shen Yuer sit down.

Zhu Biao beckoned to Zhu Wenxi in the hall with great kindness and gentleness.

His affection was evident.

Anyone could see it.

And Lady Lv, watching this scene, maintained a gentle smile on the surface, but was actually gnashing her teeth in hatred.

Zhu Yunwen also kept his head down, his eyes carrying a kind of hatred.
