First Prince of Ming Dynasty - Chapter 776

  Chapter 776 Bestowed

  Everything is difficult at the beginning, if the first prince who wants to take power from the vassal goes well, the rest will be easy, so Zhu Yuanzhang will never allow any problems on Deng Yu’s side.

   “Go and call King Jin.”

   “No.”

  The **** who was waiting on the side left as promised, Deng Yu poured wine for the emperor and said with a smile: “It’s been a long time since I saw His Royal Highness King Jin.”

  Zhu Yuanzhang said with a heroic smile: “I will see you more in the future. As the old saying goes, a son-in-law is half a son, so you should mention more. If you don’t listen, just beat him up.”

  Deng Yu quickly waved his hand: “There is a difference between a monarch and his ministers, there is no time for his subordinates to discipline him.”

   “We didn’t show politeness to you. The second child just owes discipline, and if he doesn’t make things right, he will make trouble in the future.”

  The emperor can say this, but the ministers cannot respond in this way. They just chanted a few words that it would be good to have a family and a career.

After a while, Zhu Yu arrived, and Deng Yu was about to get up, but was firmly held down by Zhu Yuanzhang’s big hand. Zhu Yu went in and took a look, and then bowed politely: “I pay my respects to my father, and to the Duke of Wei. “

  Zhu Yuanzhang said loudly: “Excuse me, the wedding is coming soon, your father-in-law has rushed back, let’s ask you to come over to see him, don’t call him a title from now on, just use the family ceremony.”

  Zhu Xi had already expected it when he came, and he was not stage-frightened at this time, and saluted Deng Yu generously: “My son-in-law pays respects to my father-in-law.”

Deng Yu wanted to stand up, his strength was naturally stronger than Lao Zhu’s, but how could he dare to struggle and disobey if the hand of the superior didn’t move away, so he could only smile bitterly: “Excuse me, Your Highness, I haven’t seen you for a long time Your Highness is very brave, I specially brought back a few fine horses, please come to my house to pick them out when you are down.”

  Zhu Yi responded obediently, and then consciously stepped forward to pour wine for his father and father-in-law, which made Lao Zhu suddenly feel that his son is still making progress, which is great.

  Deng Yu also thought in the same way. Now that the matter has come to this point, it would be great if King Jin could be more sensible. Looking left and right, he likes it more and more.

   “Sit down too, let’s drink with your father and father-in-law today.”

  As soon as these words came out, Zhu Yi couldn’t hide his clumsiness, he could only accompany the wine sincerely, listening to the two of them reminiscing about the past, jar after jar of wine was brought up continuously.

The first to be helped out was naturally Zhu Xi who came last. How could a small wine bottle beat two old drunkards? gesture, the two laughed unscrupulously.

Zhu Yuanzhang gradually stopped smiling, wiped his red eyes and said: “Bo Yan, we still have to thank you, you don’t know what’s going on with the inside and outside these days, our brothers have conquered the world, but how can sitting in the world be so difficult?” It’s easy, but we have to do it as a last resort.”

  Deng Yu shook his head: “The ministers in the court don’t understand, but they still know that listening to the superiors can never be wrong in everything. It’s nothing more than a false name and position, and it’s not for outsiders.”

  Zhu Yuanzhang put his hand on his shoulder and shook it vigorously a few times in relief: “I won’t give it to outsiders, so you can rest assured, we know everything in our hearts.”

   Said and looked at the gradually dimming light outside: “Don’t drink, we had a good time today, if you still want to drink, you can bring some wine from the palace to Yuchun Mansion to drink.”

  Deng Yu got up when he heard the words and said, “I’m having fun too, go home and see my wife and children.”

After saying that, he saluted unsteadily and was about to leave. The **** helped him to the gate of the hall, and suddenly he heard a voice coming from inside: “Bo Yan, you are the father-in-law of King Jin, but you must remember that you are the imperial court’s father-in-law first.” Wei Guogong is the crown prince’s You Yude.”

   “Wei Chen remembers it very clearly.”

   “Send Wei Guogong back to the mansion, and give him a boa robe, ten pearls, and twenty altars of imperial wine.”

  …

In Duke Wei’s mansion, Mrs. Cao led the children and waited for the news from the palace. Deng Ming, who had just turned ten years old, carefully handed the tea ceremony to his aunt: “Mother, don’t worry, father will be back soon.” came back.”

Mrs. Cao took the tea and nodded: “Ming’er is sensible, you have done a good job in your homework during this time, sir, you have praised me so much, your father will definitely reward you when he takes the exam tomorrow, and my mother will remember to beg for you That sword.”

  Deng Ming’s ears were blushing when his heart was exposed: “It’s good for the father to come back, and you don’t have to have any other sons.”

  Deng Zhilan murmured displeased, and Cao immediately stared at her with raised eyebrows, a family of daughters, and no siblings, so she will have to rely on the help of these concubine brothers in the future, can she really rely on her husband for everything.

  Because he has no son under his knees, he has taken good care of the children in the mansion all these years, and the children are all sensible, but his own daughter is not a worry.

   “Ma’am, the master is back.”

   “Ming’er, you go to greet me, and Tweety, go and bring the sobering soup that is hot on the stove.”

“Why.”

   Mrs. Cao led the other children and waited at the gate of the courtyard. Everyone couldn’t help but stare at their heads and stretch their necks. The Duke of Wei’s mansion is naturally honorable and one of the most prestigious in the world.

   But this honor did not come for nothing. Deng Yu was on guard all year round, and he could count the days he was able to return home on one hand. Every time he came back, it was a rare reunion.

After a while, I saw the figure who was thinking about it day and night. Cao’s eyes were a little moist, but he still held up his dignity, ordered someone to help her husband into the hall, and saluted the coming palace man: “Excuse me, Eunuch Gao, send him away The son is back home.”

  The **** hurriedly returned the gift: “Madam is too polite, it is my honor to be able to send the Duke back.”

   Immediately, he waved his hand to let the palace man behind him come forward: “This is a reward from the Holy Majesty to the Duke of the country, please take it carefully, madam.”

  Then still couldn’t help but shook his head and smacked his tongue in envy: “This imperial wine is nothing more than that, Dongzhu is also a rare treasure in the world, but it’s the first time I’ve seen this servant in python robes bestowed by the emperor. The royal family of the Duke is really…”

Not to mention Mrs. Cao and her sons and daughters, but the maids and servants on the side were all full of pride. Mrs. Cao immediately led her sons and daughters to bow down in the direction of the palace: “Heaven’s grace is mighty, there is nothing wrong with this, I also ask my father-in-law to thank the Holy Lord for his kindness and kindness on behalf of my family.”

   “Madam, don’t worry, the servants will definitely convey it.”

  The maid helped Mrs. Cao to get up: “Elder-in-law is working hard, come in and have a cup of tea.”

  The **** declined and said: “The maidservant has to go back to report, so I won’t bother you. The Duke drank a lot of wine with the Holy Majesty. Madam, go and take care of it. I’m leaving now.”

   “Eunuch, go slowly, Uncle Liu, you go see it off.”

  No matter how beautiful your family is, you must respect the people in the palace. Although they are slaves, they are only slaves of the Tian family.

   It is said that the male of the family came forward to see them off, but Deng Zhen was not there, and Deng Ming was still young, so it might be okay to send them out, but I am afraid that the technique of quietly stuffing money has not yet been learned.

When the people left, several children immediately gathered around the imperial gifts. The wine was ignored, and they all stared at the shining Dongzhu and the python suit with bright eyes. Colorful luster.

Dongzhu is very precious, but the children of the Duke’s family know what is more precious, and Cao Shi also held his breath and approached to look at it, with gold velvet embroidery, shoulder-length round neck, wide waist and wide sleeves. , gown length and feet.

In addition to the most conspicuous sitting python on the Dahongpao, there are also patterns of the sun, mountains, flowing clouds, and eight treasures. The lower end is arranged obliquely. Yahaihai is very majestic and solemn.

  Ms. Cao came to her senses first: “Keep it away carefully, no, set up a dirty case, first enshrine it in the ancestral hall, let the ancestors have a look, and be careful of the candle.”

   Several servants were about to move away at the sound of a response, and Cao Shi reluctantly ordered: “You don’t need the wine, just keep it in the storeroom, and wait until the time when you worship the ancestors and then honor your filial piety.”

   “Ah, mother, we haven’t seen enough, let us watch for a while.”

  The corners of Cao’s mouth rose: “If you want to see it, you can go to the ancestral hall to see it. You can watch it for as long as you want, just to help take care of the lamps and candles.”

   “Well… oops, father is back, we haven’t met yet, let’s go quickly.”

  …
