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...
Little Zhu shook her head and said, "Let's not drink honey, it's too sweet. Let's drink tea, anything will cut the sweetness."
Zhu Yunying glared at him. Actually, he didn't like little Zhu drinking tea so early, but old Zhu glared at Zhu Yunying in an instant.
Shuangquan immediately served Longjing tea. Little Zhu prefers lighter teas, and Longjing has been his favorite lately. Perhaps it's because of Little Zhu's fondness that Longjing tea, which only began to gain fame during the Yuan Dynasty, seems to have received increasing attention in the last year or two.
Zhu Yunying smiled and didn't say anything more. Little Zhu is young enough to drink a little tea, as long as he doesn't drink alcohol. Zhu Yunying could practically accept it and didn't need to say anything more.
"Since Yin'er has also mentioned the remnants of the former Yuan dynasty, then Yin'er, tell me why we moved the capital to Beiping." Seeing Old Zhu so attentively feeding little Zhu with candied fruit, Zhu Yunying couldn't stand it anymore. "Grandpa, don't spoil him like this. How old is he? Does he still need to be fed candied fruit?"
Old Zhu didn't care. He looked at Little Zhu gently and said, "Don't rush to talk to your father. You should eat slowly and carefully. Your father is good in every way, except he's not careful. He wants you to talk while you're eating. Doesn't he worry you'll choke?"
Little Zhu nodded, seemingly agreeing with some of Old Zhu's points. If it weren't for the difficulty in speaking directly, he probably would have joined in the condemnation of Zhu Yunying.
Zhu Yunying felt himself falling out of favor again. In the past, Zhu Yunying would never have been ostracized by Zhu. Even when Zhu Yunying was fifteen or sixteen years old and married, he was still a child in Zhu's eyes, and Zhu always protected him.
However, ever since the birth of Little Zhu, especially since Little Zhu spent so much time in the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Yunying's status has plummeted. At times, Old Zhu's unconditional protection of Little Zhu, and his extremely flexible double standards, made Zhu Yunying very jealous.
There's no way around it; grandparents' affection for their grandchildren is often unreasonable, let alone that of grandparents. Besides, some of Little Zhu's behaviors justify Old Zhu's unconditional protection.
