老朱笑的很开心，说道，“你家老三是不成相，大军列阵岂能擅离战位！这一趟颍国公回京，太子也有意领着宗亲、勋贵过去。你家老三要是怯了场，那可不是小事。回去那也要提点一些，咱记得梅殷也是有些本事，教出来的儿子不成器可不成！”

虽然老朱一开始确实不大乐意见到子女，不是不想他们，单纯的就是不希望给朱允煐带来什么麻烦。可是现在子女们要是非得留在这里，老朱也是没办法狠心将他们赶走。

In fact, Old Zhu knew in his heart that his days were numbered, so this might be the last time he would see his children.

Now, as long as one can enter the Qianqing Palace and endure the initial anxiety and tension, one can basically talk to Zhu Yuanzhang and receive smiles and kindness from him that he may never have given before.

Of course, this is all predicated on one thing: what you say has to please Zhu. If you displease Zhu, you might be severely reprimanded. In that case, most people simply can't withstand the pressure and can only slink away in disgrace.

"Great-grandfather, we're back!" Little Zhu came running like the wind, beaming with joy. "Auntie is here too? Shuangquan, quickly go and call all our cousins ​​over; they haven't even had a chance to leave the palace yet."

Shuangquan immediately took action, without needing the Emperor Emeritus's decree; the Crown Prince's decree was the Emperor Emeritus's will.

Seeing his great-grandson rush into his arms, Old Zhu kindly took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat. "We owe you two a lot. At our age, we just like peace and quiet. You come back and start causing trouble. It's not enough for you to make a scene by yourself, you even called your cousins ​​over. How can anyone live here?"

Little Zhu wasn't afraid at all and said excitedly, "Our second son has made some progress; he can ride a horse and follow us now."

Princess Ningguo and Princess Anqing had long since stopped caring; their father's favoritism had always been like this. It was like this before, and it is like this now—they were used to it!
