In the seventh year of Hongwu, the legitimate eldest grandson of Zhu Yuanzhang, the great ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, was born.
He who resides as the legitimate heir will surely ascend to t...
Zhu Yunying didn't need to stand on ceremony; he had indeed acted on a whim, which was why he had run out of the palace for a 'private visit'.
As for finding Old Zhu and Little Zhu, there's absolutely no need to worry. Many people are closely monitoring Old Zhu and Little Zhu's movements. If Zhu Yunying wants to find them, there's no way she won't be able to, and she won't even waste any time.
After Zhu Yunying had eaten and drunk his fill, Old Zhu and Little Zhu continued to stroll around the streets of Yingtian Prefecture with their little one.
This seemingly casual stroll was, of course, also meant to broaden Little Zhu's horizons. When they encountered some unusual situations, Old Zhu and Little Zhu would patiently explain the underlying principles to Little Zhu, as well as the decisions an emperor should make.
"The old man is so lucky," an old man said enviously to Old Zhu. "We thought this little one was your grandson, but it turns out he's your great-grandson! You're so blessed, sir, to have so many children and grandchildren!"
Such envy immediately brought a smile to Old Zhu's face; he now truly had the right to be so proud. This was what it meant to have a house full of children and grandchildren; for a time, Old Zhu even achieved 'four generations under one roof,' something many people would envy immensely.
"I'm the great-grandson!" Little Zhu couldn't resist showing off. "I also have a younger sister and a younger brother! And Mom's pregnant with another one. I'll be the eldest brother next year, just like Dad!"
Showing off is understandable; seeing others' envious and jealous reactions can give you a sense of accomplishment.
Returning home in wealth and honor is like wearing fine clothes in the dark; having some enviable achievements naturally makes it worthwhile to show them off, and there's absolutely no problem with that!
We should continue shopping and continue to educate Xiao Zhu based on the actual situation; this is also something we should do.
A broad perspective is certainly important, but it shouldn't just be about aiming too high. One shouldn't only look into the distance, but also pay attention to the people and things around them; this is what Zhu Yunying believed was the best approach.
