Chapter 379 A Wise Family

Picking up his second son, Zhu Yunying immediately beamed, "Good lad, finally someone who looks like us!"

Zhu Yunying was delighted. His eldest son's eyebrows and eyes resembled his own, but instead of Zhu Yunying's pointed chin and oval face, he had a square face like Old Zhu and Big Zhu.

My darling daughter has an oval face, but her eyebrows and eyes are almost all inherited from Lian Qiongqiong.

Finally, they've proven themselves! This third child finally looks like his father!

Lady Wang was overjoyed. The principle of a mother's status rising with her son was a golden rule in this era, and an inviolable law in the royal family!

The Empress's position was secure not only because of His Majesty's favor and her noble birth, but also because she had given birth to the Crown Prince for the Emperor. This was also an important reason why the concubines in the harem dared not cause trouble for Xu Miaoqing.

"Your Majesty, I also think that our son looks quite like you!" Lady Wang smiled broadly, with a hint of pride and boastfulness. "A few days ago, the Princess also came to see our son and said that he looks just like Your Majesty when he was young."

The "eldest princess" here can only refer to Zhu Yunying's sisters. As for Zhu Yunying's daughters, they became the eldest princesses after Zhu Yunying ascended the throne.

Zhu Yunying simply smiled and nodded, continuing to tease her second son, who still knew nothing.

"By the way, the prince's name is Wenjin." Zhu Yunying poked his second son's little face and said, "Tomorrow we'll send Prince Xu back to his hometown."

Wang was happy to hear her son's name. However, when she heard that it was to be given to Prince Xu, Zhu Yunwen, to return to his hometown to offer sacrifices to his ancestors, she felt it was somewhat inadequate and unworthy of her son's appearance!

Seeing His Majesty happy, and feeling that her son had a unique advantage, Lady Wang suddenly couldn't help but feel...

"Your Majesty, perhaps we should wait a few more days. His Highness Prince Wu should be returning to the capital soon."

Zhu Yunwen is out of the question; he's just the emperor's younger brother. Zhu Yunwen, on the other hand, is the emperor's most beloved younger brother!

Zhu Yunying glanced at Lady Wang, then at his second son in his arms, and couldn't help but laugh.

"You've read some books, so you must know what 'unfilial to me' means! I do like my son to resemble me, but he is my crown prince, and that is what matters!"

After saying this, Zhu Yunying stood up and said, "Take good care of our son. Don't let him have any wicked thoughts. It's not good for you, and it's not good for our son either!"
