Chapter 195 Burning Incense to Ancestors

Kunning Palace.

Ma Xiuying finished washing.

I walked to the door of the dormitory, took a look inside, and couldn't help but smile...

Zhu Yuanzhang turned around on the ground with a dark face and his hands behind his back.

"Okay, you can see me tomorrow." Ma Xiuying smiled and shook her head and walked in.

Zhu Yuanzhang paused, turned his head, and stared, "That's nice to say, you are a full man but you don't know a hungry man is hungry! If we had stayed with Gao Chi and Yuying for a month, we would be able to say such high-sounding words!"

…

See you later. See you later.

nothing.

If the asshole fourth child lives in Tuqiao Village with his children, he's fine.

Anyway, Xu Da can't be seen either.

They were considered brothers in need, and he felt more comfortable.

But now, the nature of the problem has changed.

Not long ago, the two were close friends.

He also visited Xu Da with Xiongying's "kindness" in mind.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Dabi, his biological grandfather, met Gao Chi and Yuying first, and hugged Gao Chi and Yuying first.

Why!

He deeply understood what his ancestors said: Don’t worry about poverty, but worry about inequality!

It makes so much sense!

He has never felt this way since he became emperor.

The fourth bastard, the filial son!

Success made him experience the feeling of being treated unfairly and differently again.

Ma Xiuying knew all about Zhu Yuanzhang's little thoughts.

Too lazy to answer.

Come to the couch and sit down.

Zhu Yuanzhang shamelessly sat down next to him and asked, "Tell me, is Xu Da so happy that he can't close his mouth now..."

…

It has to be said that Zhu Yuanzhang knew Xu Da very well.

Xu Mansion.

After meal.

Xu Da ordered people to remove the rice and put Xiao Yongming and Xiao Qihua directly on the dining table.

"Come, see what grandpa is holding in his hand?"

"Haha... Xiao Qihua smiled at us!"

…

Xu Da crawled beside the table, holding a few small animal stuffed animals, teasing the two little guys, and letting out hearty laughter from time to time.

So happy!

The son is the eldest brother Emperor Zhu.

The grandsons and granddaughters also belong to the eldest brother Emperor Zhu.

Now when I return to Jinling, everyone comes to his house!

My eldest brother, Emperor Zhu, must be very troubled tonight.

He was threefold happy tonight.

The first weight, of course, was brought by the two little guys.

At the first level, the daughter and son-in-law who have "some conscience, but not much" are back.

The last level was given to me by my eldest brother, Emperor Zhu.

A few days ago, when the two little ones had a full-moon banquet, Emperor Zhu was too embarrassed to go and had nowhere to vent his anger, so he brought his grandson home in an unreasonable manner.

He said that the two of them were sworn brothers before, but after they got married, they became a pair of incompetent brothers.

At first, he was quite moved.

Order people to prepare food and drinks.

But after eating and drinking, Emperor Zhu felt something was wrong. He pulled his grandson Xiongying and began to sigh: Fortunately, we are different from Tiande. We still have Xiongying, and there is no shortage of opportunities to entertain our grandson. Tiande, Poor you!

He could only endure it at that time because he had no grandchildren.

But tonight was different.

Based on his understanding of Emperor Zhu.

Emperor Zhu will definitely be in trouble tonight!

…

Xu Zengshou and Xu Yingxu were too embarrassed to go to the table and stood not far away, pretending not to care, but quietly looking at Xiao Yongming and Xiao Qihua from the corner of their eyes.

Whenever the two little guys looked around and looked at the two of them.

Both of them would deliberately roll their eyes, pull the corners of their mouths with their hands, and make scary faces at the same time.

This scene was accidentally seen by Xu Miaoyin.

Xu Miaoyin held back her laughter and quietly poked Xu Huizu, signaling Xu Huizu.

Xu Huizu stood up quietly, came to the two of them, winked, and led them out.

When he came to a quiet place outside, he looked at the two little bastards with arrogant faces and said with a smile, "Little Yongming and little Qihua, aren't they cute?"

The two of them didn't speak. They just raised their chins slightly and glanced at Xu Huizu secretly from the corner of their eyes.

Xu Huizu laughed angrily and said sincerely: "This is a good opportunity to apologize to sister and brother-in-law. If you can't shame it, I will take you there when sister and brother-in-law return to their villa."

"After you apologize, you don't have to be like now. You obviously want to tease and hug little Yongming and little Qihua, but you don't have the nerve to do it."

whispering sound!

The two of them yelled in unison, Xu Zengshou frowned, "Who wants to hug him? I'm afraid he will pee when I hug him!"

"Okay!" Xu Huizu nodded and patted the two of them on the shoulders, "It's good to have backbone, but don't use it in the wrong place!"

After saying that, he turned around and left with a smile.

These two little bastards are still at the age where they are competitive and take their face very seriously.

I thought my behavior was ironclad.

No matter how old you are, if you think about it yourself, you will blush with shame.

Xu Zengshou and Xu Yingxu looked at each other in confusion, ‘Are you leaving now? You'd better give me some more earnest advice! ’.

If the elder brother persuades them again, they will agree!

Or, if the eldest brother directly escorts them in, they will pretend to be forced and reluctant, and apologize to Xu Daya and Zhu Silang.

…

When Xu Da saw Xu Huizu walking in, Xu Zengshou and Xu Yingxu did not follow him, the corners of his lips twitched slightly.

How could he not know about the small actions of several children in private?

He also kept waiting for the two little bastards to apologize to their elder sister and brother-in-law.

…

Xu Da fell in love with Yong Ming and Qihua.

The whole Xu family is the same.

At some point.

Seeing Xiao Yongming and Xiao Qihua dozing off, they felt extremely distressed and urged: "Our grandsons are tired, take them to rest quickly."

He said this, but he didn't let go.

Send the two little guys all the way outside Xu Miaoyun's courtyard.

He reluctantly handed the two little guys over to Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun.

Before leaving, he looked at Zhu Di: "I heard that in order to embarrass you this time, Lu Ben not only increased the difficulty of the rules, but also made the test questions more difficult than ever before. You have to be mentally prepared. It doesn't matter even if you fail.

"This is an unfair exam to begin with. He, Lu Ben, can make small moves this time, but he can't do it again and again."

If you do it once, the candidates will scold you at most.

But Lu Ben did it two or three times, and the candidates dared to attack the palace.

In the early years of Hongwu, when all the northern scholars failed the examination, there was an incident where the scholars stormed the palace.

It was precisely because of this incident that the imperial examinations were divided into southern and northern rankings.

And at the same time, Enko was opened for several years.

It was not until last year that the emperor decided that starting from next year, Enke would no longer be used for a short period of time.

Of course, Lu Ben also understood that he could not stop Shiro from taking the imperial examination.

This time the sprint for Xiucai failed, Shiro can still sprint next year!

In the past year, Shiro has been so popular.

A group of children who bid for tax concessions, rural village societies, built houses, and taught, almost all passed the childbirth examination.

Even if you give birth to a child, you will have two in a lifetime, a pair of sons and a daughter.

Ordinary people don't know it, but all the officials in the court know it.

This series of events, in the eyes of those who were hostile, made his son-in-law a little too popular.

Lu Ben hoped to use the power of formulating rules to make Shiro stumble, knock off Shiro's overwhelming popularity, and destroy Shiro's chance to sprint for the college examination, provincial examination, and general examination in succession.

The scholar failed the exam.

They are no longer qualified to take the provincial examination or the general examination.

Xu Miaoyun hugged little Qihua and complained in a low voice: "My father and my father, they knew clearly that Lu Ben was abusing his power, but they didn't care? Misusing public weapons because of personal grudges is very dangerous for a country!"

Xu Da couldn't help but be amused.

This daughter who has "little conscience, but a little" talks about the country, but in fact, she only thinks about her family.

"There is a reason why Your Majesty did not take care of it this time."

The emperor had high hopes for Shiro and wanted to be so proud that he would be speechless!

Seeing that Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun were full of doubts, they explained with a smile: "According to rumors, His Majesty has announced that if Shiro is admitted as a scholar, your scholar examination paper will be framed and hung in the ancestral temple."

"do you understand?"

Don't say that the emperor is like this.

If his child can be a scholar without relying on family connections, he will come back as a scholar.

He is sure to be so happy that he cannot find Bei Nan!

Because this is indeed too face-saving!

Although children from a family like theirs do not lack a future.

But when it comes to talents, let alone martial arts families like them.

Even if the children of civil servant families like Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang want to pass the fair imperial examination and get ahead, it is very difficult!

Whoever's children can pass the exams of scholar, public examination, or Jinshi are really putting money on their face!

Zhu Di smiled and nodded: "Master Taishan, I understand, and I will do my best."

"Hey, we are a little worried." Xu Da shook his head and patted Zhu Di on the shoulder, "You are our son-in-law. You have passed the examination to be a scholar. We are bright, but His Majesty is even brighter. Based on our understanding of His Majesty, he must be Will come and show off in front of us.”

Not just him.

It would be fun if Shiro really passed the examination as a scholar.

Colleagues in North Korea and China will all suffer.

Your Majesty will definitely show off to all the courtiers.

He could all imagine what the situation would be like.

Xu Da was in pain and happiness, shook his head and left with a smile.

Xu Da's appearance made Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun laugh.

Xu Miaoyun turned around, looked at Zhu Di, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Zhu, are you confident?"

"I don't know." Zhu Di came closer and said with a smile: "I need someone to cheer me up and encourage me. For example, some people who are in debt should repay their debts honestly and obediently."

Xu Miaoyun's pretty face flushed instantly, and she took the lead to walk to the attic of the other courtyard, "I'll take you to see my former boudoir."

Zhu Di smiled and quickly followed.

…

Squeak!

The lights in the house were lit at some point.

Push the door open and enter.

The furnishings inside come into view.

The bedroom is inside.

Outside the bedroom, by the window, there is a piano and desk. The window is open, and there is a small lotus pond outside the window.

Boom!

Zhu Di came to the piano table and gently pressed his fingers on the strings, making a tinkling sound.

Xiao Yongming, who was crawling on his arm, moved slightly.

Xu Miaoyun stared with a smile and whispered: "After you finish the exam, I will play the piano for you."

Zhu Di nodded with a smile and gently loosened the strings.

Then he followed Xu Miaoyun to the bedroom.

The door opens.

Both of them were stunned.

There are various stuffed toys placed in the bedroom. Rows of windmills made of various colored papers are inserted around the crib, and strings of various paper animals are hung above.

Shocked, the two put the two little ones into the fluffy crib.

He came to the bed and sat down, looking at...

Zhu Di was curious.

Xu Miaoyun is in memory.

At a certain moment, Xu Miaoyun turned slightly sideways, put his hands around Zhu Di's waist, and raised his head, "Silang, I had my father when I was young, and I have you after I got married. I feel like I am being cared for by God."

"You deserve this!" Zhu Di smiled and tilted his head.

Miaoyun's mother passed away early, and Miaoyun had been managing the Xu family for Taishan for a long time.

Huizu and the others did not grow up crooked, and Miaoyun had made great contributions.

There was a reason why his father-in-law favored Miaoyun.

If Miaoyun had not insisted at the beginning.

Even if he wanted to be good to Miaoyun, he would not have had the opportunity.

So, all the good and bad in life, in addition to external factors, a large part of the cause and effect is planted by oneself.

"If you really want to thank, pay the debt later. I have calculated your debt, and the interest is compounded. You can't pay it back even if you pay it back every day."

Xu Miaoyun blushed and smiled secretly in front of Zhu Di's chest.

She would not tell Silang that she did this on purpose.

If you can't pay it back in this life, you can continue to pay it back in the next life.

She has already planted the cause and effect.

Dong Dong Dong...

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside.

The two looked at each other and walked out...

"Who is it?"

Zhu Di called softly, but there was no answer.

The two looked at each other, pushed open the door, and found two big puppets at the door.

A tiger and a leopard.

Zhu Di bent down to pick up the two puppets, stood at the door and looked around, but could not see any figure.

Turned around to close the door and looked at Xu Miaoyun.

Xu Miaoyun saw the two puppets clearly and couldn't help laughing, "These two puppets are the most precious things of Zengshou and Yingxu when they were young."

Zhu Di smelled them and couldn't help laughing, "There is a faint sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance on them, and it looks like they have been carefully washed."

These two guys gave gifts so secretly.

Afraid of being seen.

They must have washed them by hand.

In fact, he didn't take the little things in the past to heart at all.

The two children, who heard too many rumors outside, felt embarrassed and took their anger out on him and Miaoyun. This is a normal reaction of children.

Many people, when they were young, have similar experiences of taking their anger out on their relatives.

"Or, let's take the initiative to find an opportunity..."

"No!" Before Zhu Di finished speaking, Xu Miaoyun shook her head: "We can forgive them, but can unrelated outsiders do that?"

"If it were unrelated outsiders, they would probably have held a grudge based on what they did."

"This is a good opportunity to teach them a lesson. They must apologize in person so that they will remember it deeply."

Zhu Di couldn't help but laugh, "No wonder Huizu and the others said that you are a bully at home, but you are timid to me. It's true. In the future, our children will be taught by you. I will be a kind father and you will be a strict mother."

Xu Miaoyun smiled and glared, whispering: "I am a debtor, how can I not be timid!"

...

Courtyard.

After Zhu Di closed the door.

Xu Yingxu and Xu Zengshou tiptoed out of the courtyard from the corner of the courtyard.

Walking a little further, Xu Zengshou asked in a low voice: "Second brother, why don't we take this opportunity to send gifts, and no one is around to apologize to Xu Daya and Zhu Silang?"

"Are we wrong?" Xu Yingxu paused and turned to look at Xu Zengshou.

Right?

Xu Zengshou looked suspiciously, "Then why are we so humble to send gifts?"

"That's what uncles give to nephews and nieces! These are two different things!" After saying that, Xu Yingxu left with his head raised.

"Isn't this deceiving yourself?"

Xu Zengshou muttered in a low voice, shook his head, and left quickly.

...

The next day at four o'clock.

Kunning Palace.

Ma Xiuying arranged the crown and clothes for Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang instructed: "Get new clothes ready for us. After the morning court is over, we will change into new clothes and then go straight to Xu Da's mansion."

Ma Xiuying smiled and responded.

"Okay, okay, I still have to go to the ancestral temple." Zhu Yuanzhang stopped Ma Xiuying.

Ma Xiuying couldn't help but ask curiously: "What are you going to do in the ancestral temple?"

You know the answer but you still ask!

Zhu Yuanzhang glared with a dark face and turned away.

Of course, I went to burn incense for the ancestors of the Zhu family, asking them to bless the bastard Lao Si and win face for the Zhu family.

Take an exam to make others speechless and impeccable!

Although it's a bit late to burn incense now.

But there is a reason for this.

I was so angry last night that I forgot about it.

I hope the ancestors don't blame me. After all, this is also to give them face.
