Moreover, even if His Majesty seems to have some less favoritism towards His Highness the Second Prince, he is not completely indifferent. Most importantly, this is how the royal family is; at least the emperors of the Ming Dynasty valued their offspring highly and would not tolerate the slightest mistreatment.

Zhu Wenjin really didn't like dining with his father, the emperor, because if he didn't behave well or said something wrong, he would definitely be scolded, which he certainly didn't like.

However, children are naturally attached to their parents, and even though they are still children, they are gradually developing their own thoughts.

Zhu Wenjin was certainly aware of his special status, and even more so of his father, the Emperor, being the supreme ruler of the mortal realm. Therefore, he would sometimes try to please and ingratiate himself. Even if he couldn't be like his elder brother, he should at least learn from his second uncle and be a carefree and happy prince.

"Dad!" Zhu Ruyi ran over happily and said in a coquettish tone, "I haven't seen Dad for so many days. I miss Dad so much that I can't sleep well."

Zhu Yunying was delighted; she really was a sweet and considerate girl. "Really? You missed me that much?"

Seeing Zhu Ruyi nod, Zhu Yunying happily picked up the little girl and kissed her cheek hard. "Is it just that you say you miss us and are trying to coax us, or do you really miss us?"

Zhu Ruyi said, "I miss it so much, I can't sleep!"

Holding Zhu Ruyi, Zhu Yunying looked at Zhu Wenjin and asked, "Listen to this, your imperial sister misses us so much she can't sleep. She's thinking about us all the time. And you? Don't you dare imitate your imperial sister. You're a man, how do you think about us?"

Zhu Wenjin lowered his head and pondered for a long time before stammering, "Your subject, Your subject misses Father so much that his brain has gone mad."

Zhu Yunying was speechless. He wanted to spoil his son more, but sometimes he just couldn't do it!
