He hesitated for a moment. "That won't work. How about waiting for my father-in-law and fourth brother to come back, and them to be reunited for a few days? Then I'll send my second brother to escort the grain? It'll take at least three to five months to deliver grain and seeds from north to south, and then watch the people plant them."
Zhu Wuhuan nodded. "I think it's okay. Feng Yao was almost crying when she came to the palace a few days ago. She said that before her daughter was born, she really loved her second brother's doting nature. He was filial to his parents, kind to his brothers and sisters, and also very kind to her family. He seemed like such a good person that made people want to love him to death... But after her daughter was born, she realized how terrible his protective nature was."
She curled her lips, "Just transfer Second Brother to another province and give Fengyao a few months to work out her temper. Without her father who loves her endlessly to protect her, and with her grandfather back to manage her grandmother and uncle, forbidding them to help her, she'll be obedient without her three biggest backers."
Feng Changye laughed, "Is there something about my mother-in-law and Chengying involved here?"
Zhu Wuhuan raised his hand to support his forehead and smiled helplessly, "What else? If Mother doesn't love this little granddaughter, wouldn't Fengyao just complain to Mother directly? Why would she have to come to me, her younger sister, to complain?"
She looked at Feng Changye, "Hey, you see, my mother seems to be such a rational person, right? She disciplined her sons very well, but it's different when it comes to her granddaughter. Whenever her granddaughter cries, she gets so distressed! And the same goes for little Chengying. He's already ten years old, but he still plays with my niece all day long. He does whatever my niece asks him to do and protects her like the apple of his eye!"
She sighed, "It's because her grandmother, father, and uncle spoil her and indulge her that she becomes so domineering! In the entire Zhu family, only Feng Yao and the eldest brother and sister-in-law are strict with her, but so what? They are three to three, a tie. How can the three of them beat the other three? The other side has Mother in charge, no one can beat them!"
Feng Changye felt it was so lively just listening to it.
As soon as the eldest brother, sister-in-law and Fengyao were angry with the little girl, the mother-in-law and the second brother Xiao Chengying immediately stepped forward and tried to persuade them to calm down with kind words, determined to protect the little girl.
The eldest brother and his wife were so angry that they glared at each other, and Fengyao was so angry that she cried, but they couldn't do anything about it.
Fun.
This situation can probably only be calmed down by the return of my father-in-law.
As soon as the old man sat there in a domineering manner, his mother-in-law and little Chengying didn't dare to make trouble.
Without anyone to stop her, Big Brother, Big Sister-in-law, and Fengyao could teach the little girl a lesson and straighten her temper. If she really doesn't listen, then it's the domineering Grandpa who will take over!
If grandpa grabs her and beats her a few more times, she will be quiet and obedient!
The more he thought about it, the happier he became. He put his arm around Zhu Wuhuan's shoulders and whispered, "Let's go and see the fun. I want to see how they teach the little girl a lesson, hahahaha..."
Zhu Wuhuan looked at him speechlessly, "Are you not busy enough with state affairs? Do you still have the leisure to watch a group of adults deal with a little kid?"
Feng Changye said righteously, "How can I just watch the fun? I want to take Xiao'er and A'qiong to see how good their grandfather is at beating people! If they don't listen to us, we can use grandfather to scare them!"
Zhu Wuhuan was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up!
Yes! Good idea!
Now that dad is back, no matter whether they are grandchildren or grandchildren, he will take the trouble to discipline them together!
The young couple reached a consensus, and then looked at Xiao'er and Aqiong running circles outside at the same time, smiling maliciously.
The two poor kids had no idea of their father and mother’s sinister intentions, and they were still obediently following their brother Goose to run in circles to help digest their food and lose weight.
"Sister, can you please eat less in the future? Look, your brother has to study with the tutor every day, and after school he has to run with you. It's so tiring..."
"Brother, I, I, I... I can't control myself. I'm greedy, and I can't do anything about my little mouth. It won't listen to me..."
"Oh, you little fool, if you keep going on like this, I'll be driven to tears..."
"I, I, I... Then I will try to eat less in the future, okay, brother? Brother, please don't look down on me. Arjun loves you the most."
In the sunshine, the little boy turned his head and glanced at the little girl. Facing the little girl's innocent and healing smile, he could only helplessly hold his sister's hand tightly and continue running.
There's nothing I can do about it, since he's my older brother.
...three days later.
General Zhu's fleet arrived at a port dozens of miles away from the capital.
After getting off the boat, they led the team to escort carts full of things packed tightly in wooden boxes towards the capital.
After spending half a day to finally arrive at the Ten-Li Pavilion outside the capital, they saw the royal flag with a black background and a domineering golden dragon embroidered on it!
That's the royal team!
"Go and have a look, is the emperor waiting up ahead?"
When Zhu Huaining saw the flag, he immediately sent someone to check it out.
He also called his fourth son Zhu Chunjun, his newly promoted deputy general Chu Yujie from overseas, and several other capable generals, and prepared to go together to pay a visit to the emperor.
As a result, the person who went to inquire came back and reported, "General, the emperor is not in the pavilion."
Zhu Huaining looked at the flag fluttering high in surprise, "How could it be..."
The subordinate excitedly said, "Old General, those are sent by the Emperor to welcome you to the capital! The Emperor said that you have worked hard and made great contributions, and he has graciously allowed you to return to the capital with half of the royal guard! Those flags and the magnificent guard are from the Ministry of Rites, who have been ordered to welcome you! Moreover, the Emperor and Empress, along with the little prince and princess, are waiting to greet you on the city wall!"
When Zhu Huaining heard that the emperor actually allowed him to return to the capital with half of the royal regalia, he was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes turned red.
What a great honor this is!
He wished Huaining no regrets!
He has completely let go of the grudges that led to the emperor killing the entire Zhu family in history!
The current emperor is a wise ruler, a wise ruler supported by all the people in the world. The emperor has lived up to his expectations!
He immediately dismounted and kowtowed in the direction of the capital, "Your Majesty, this old minister thanks you for your grace!"
Zhu Chunjun, Chu Yujie and others also followed him to kowtow in the capital.
Afterwards, they met up with the ceremonial guard of the Ministry of Rites at the Ten-Li Pavilion, and then marched towards the city gate in a grand and majestic manner.
Along the way, many people saw the flags of the Zhu family army and the royal flags together, and they couldn't help but shed tears for the honor and favor of the Zhu family.
That’s great.
When the emperor wanted to execute Zhu's family, they were all very sad.
Now the Zhu family has not fallen, and has become the most glorious and dazzling family in Daning. Even if this matter has nothing to do with them, they feel relieved and happy!
The rise and fall of the aristocratic families in the capital had nothing to do with them. Only the rise and fall of the Zhu family would affect their lives.
As long as the Zhu family is there, they believe that the sky of Daning will not fall.
I wish the old general is a well-deserved Duke of the State!
Along the way, Zhu Huaining was warmly welcomed by the people along the way. Looking at these people, he felt very happy and kept waving and greeting everyone.
Looking back at the big wooden box behind him, he felt very happy.
With these high-yield grains, these people will live better in the future!
Finally, the team arrived at the city gate.
Zhu Huaining and Zhu Chunjun, riding on horseback, looked at the royal family of four standing on the city wall from afar.
The old man first glanced at his daughter, and seeing that her expression was still bright and cheerful, without any sign of depression, he felt relieved.
He then looked towards the Emperor to whom he served.
The emperor was calmer than before and looked more majestic.
very good.
Then he looked at the two little kids who were probably standing on stools, trying to lean on the city wall and look down.
The boy on the left is very cute and has a beautiful little golden crown on his head. The small beads hanging from the crown are swaying, which makes him look lively and cute.
Zhu Huaining looked at the little baby and felt a little dazed for a moment.
He seemed to see the young Fifth Prince from twenty years ago, also wearing the same golden crown, calling "Master" in a cute voice while running behind him. As he ran, the two beads next to his head swung back and forth, so cute...
In the blink of an eye, the emperor who had no master-disciple relationship with him had grown up so much, and his child was almost the same age as he was back then...
Zhu Huaining looked at the father and son and tried hard to suppress his tears.
There's nothing to be sentimental about.
The child who had no master-disciple relationship with him has become his son-in-law, and the child born is his grandson. Isn't their relationship closer than that of master and disciple?
He tried to smile and looked at the little girl beside him.
The little girl looks a bit like Wuhuan and is very beautiful.
Her head was covered with pearl flowers that looked like little stars. Her brother wore a golden crown, and she wore a more beautiful pearl crown. From this we can see how much her father, the emperor, and her mother, the queen, loved her. They were reluctant to let her become a foil to her brother and be overshadowed.
And she indeed grew up bathed in the love of her parents, with a look of pride and nobility that was no less than that of her brother, she was the true princess of Daning who should be pampered!
That’s great.
The old man's face was full of satisfaction.
He was very happy. He had been away for three years and could come back to see such a beautiful picture of this family.
Just as he was about to dismount and salute, he saw his emperor son-in-law and empress, each holding a little baby's hand, walking down from the city wall.
He led everyone to dismount and wait.
Soon, the emperor, empress, little prince and little princess came over surrounded by palace servants and guards.
Zhu Huaining was about to kowtow once again, but he saw the two little kids break free from their father and mother's hands and run towards him happily.
He watched the two little kids running towards him with their short legs, smiling. He was so overwhelmed with love that he forgot about bowing and greeting them.
"Grandpa!"
In the blink of an eye, the two little kids had run up to him, looking up at him and smiling happily.
The old man's eyes were red with excitement, "Little Prince, Little Princess..."
Before he could finish, Feng Yuxiao hugged the old man's left leg and said in a baby voice, "Grandpa, you are Xiao'er's great hero grandpa, you have to call me Xiao'er, not the little prince! The little prince is called by others, grandpa should call me Xiao'er!"
Then Feng Yuqiong hugged the old man's right leg like her brother did, and said softly, "Grandpa! You are not just my brother's grandpa, you are also Aqiong's grandpa! Don't call me little princess anymore, I want you to call me Aqiong, okay, Grandpa!"
