Chapter 636 Special Grace
Hu Weiyong and others also came over for nearly half of the banquet, which undoubtedly made the scene much more lively, and the Wu clan members were also very popular, although no one would dare to provoke them in the local area, and the officials and gentry would treat each other with courtesy treat.
But after all, they are still farming in the countryside for a living, and there are only a few officials they can see. How can they compare with the princes and generals they see today? This is a truth that no matter how ignorant people understand.
Hu Weiyong and the others took turns toasting a cup and then left. There was too much difference in class, and they knew in their hearts that with the empress' temperament, they would not promote their high officials and rich salary because of their personal relationship. They were just the expression of His Royal Highness It's just a form of filial piety.
After talking about the little things in the past, the banquet came to an end. Zhu Biao sent Li Zhen, who was already drunk, back to the mansion to rest, while he led the Wu clan members who were still in high spirits to stroll around the palace.
You can’t go to the harem and other places, but the palace is so big, even if you avoid it, there are many buildings worth seeing. After all, it is the royal palace.
Zhu Biao led the sixth uncle to the front, and the Wu clan members behind him exclaimed from time to time. They didn't feel relieved until they saw the cultivated land and grain seedlings behind the Wuying Hall. It turned out that living in the palace also had to farm and eat.
Wu Congzhen wiped his tears and said: "Finally, this old man has not lived his whole life in vain. He is dragging the blessings of his mother and His Highness. Fourth brother and the others will not have such a good life."
Zhu Biao clapped his hands and said comfortingly: "I heard that the clan has opened a school, which is a good thing. Afterwards, I personally selected a few educated gentlemen from the Imperial College and sent them to the clan school. Once the foundation is laid, the children of the Wu family will be able to serve as officials in the future." lintel."
Several elders of the Wu family thanked each other again and again, Zhu Biao glanced at the young men behind who were eager to try. With his vision, he naturally saw what they wanted.
Continue to take Wu Congzhen's hand and say: "The sudden expensiveness of foreign relatives is a disaster rather than a blessing. The real decent family is the one who cultivates and studies and inherits the family. The sixth uncle must understand the painstaking efforts of the queen mother these years."
Wu Congzhen is obviously a sensible person. He turned his head and gave Zhu Biao a hard look at the young people, and said to Zhu Biao: "Because of the wars and famines, these generations of people like me didn't have the opportunity to study hard, that is, to know a few of them. It’s just big characters, how dare he think, now that His Highness has taken care of you, in the future, the children will study hard, are you afraid that there will be no chance to succeed?”
Another clan elder also answered: "That's right, under the rule of Zhao Guan's family, our Wu family has been farming, studying, heirloom, and serving as officials for generations. Now that it is under the Zhu family, it is so related. In the future, our children and grandchildren should be diligent and loyal to the country." yes."
After the tour, I will meet the emperor and grandson. There are many people from the Wu family, but some of them are relatives or close friends. Most of them were brought back to the house by the officials of the Ministry of Rites. We have the honor to visit the emperor and grandson as relatives.
When they arrived at the Wenhua Hall, Zhu Biao looked at the two middle-aged men behind the sixth uncle and said: "Uncle Zhong Ju is a man, and the grandfather Ma Gong Xu Wang has no heirs to worship except his mother. If the two uncles Uncle is willing to accept the post of sacrifice and inheritance from King Xu."
Wu Zhong is the eldest son of Wu Congshan, and Wu Ju is the eldest son of Wu Congzhen. Zhu Biao, the high-ranking official, Lord Houlu, is not going to give it to him, but he still needs some treatment. of.
Both of them are honest and filial people, they have been listening to their father (uncle) all their lives, and they have survived the famine and troubled times.
Zhu Biao waved his hand without waiting for him to speak: "I'm not in a hurry to make a decision. The emperor discussed this matter with me before, and it won't be too late for my uncle to speak in front of the empress father and mother in a few days."
Step into the Wenhua Palace and take a seat. It is not easy for Wu Congzhen to take the seat here. After taking the main seat, Zhu Biao ordered: "Go and bring the two emperors and grandchildren. Be careful of the wind and cold on the way."
Liu Jin left as promised. He would never dare to hand over the matter of his Highness's heirs to others easily. After all, he had to go by himself to feel at ease.
After Liu Jin left, Zhu Biao said: "Luohua is in charge of the affairs of the harem according to the order of his mother, Empress Yi. Today, there are some urgent matters to be dealt with, so it is not easy to come and see my uncle."
After a while, Liu Jin led the two nannies in and asked the eunuchs to surround them all the way so that the two emperors and grandchildren would not be blown by the wind.
After the two nannies saluted, it took a while before they carefully unwrapped the tightly wrapped swaddling clothes in their arms, revealing two little faces that were still soundly asleep.
Wu Congshan and the others carefully looked around, none of them dared to reach out to touch it, but kept chanting words of praise, and the awe in their eyes was greater than the love.
They are just ordinary people, but these two are born to be the sons and daughters of dragons and phoenixes. They are not the masters of the country, but they must be the princes.
For them, what is the difference between the emperor or the prince? They are both the masters of the family's life and death, and they can only bow their heads and worship.
The elders of the Wu family all know that when they die, this kindness will be over. After all, they are not Ma, and the title of King Xu of the Ma family will not fall on them. When he grows up, the Wu family will disappear from everyone.
After seeing him, Zhu Biao asked the nanny to take the baby to the side hall to rest. It's not good to always carry the baby around like this. Let's go back together when he returns to the bedroom.
After chatting for a while, they fell into a situation where they had nothing to say. The difference in status made their cognitions different, so naturally there was not much to say. Wu Congzhen naturally understood that there would probably be no chance to see the prince again in the future. Your Highness.
It is very rare for the prince of a country to put down his state affairs and receive them in person for half a day, and there is no other reason, so he stood up and begged: "As your Highness has seen, there is a time when the Wu family is passed down to the old man. The word order can be followed, but it will be gone in Wu Zhongwuju's generation, please be kind to Your Highness, and give the word order of the next generation to be passed down to the Wu family."
Zhu Biao was taken aback when he heard the words, and thought that he should ask his father for this matter. After all, Comrade Zhu is willing to mess with this. Their brothers are all wood, and Yanger Lianger's and the second and third's future heirs The word order is still being drawn up, and the Ritual Department of the Imperial Academy has been compiling it for several years. I can imagine that Lao Zhu attaches great importance to it.
He raised his eyes and looked at the Wu clan members who had bowed down to the place. Immortals are thieves. When Zhu Biao invited the Wu clan relatives to come, he wondered if they would have a whimsical request. After all, such an opportunity is really rare.
But under the pressure of a group of elders, the Wu family behaved in a regular manner, without any overstepping the rules, let alone asking for officials and nobles, even the two official positions in Xu Wang's mausoleum were sent by Zhu Biao on his own initiative.
I didn't expect to be waiting for him here. Because of his mother, Zhu Biao himself was grateful to Wu Congzhen and Wu Congzhen, but now it is only limited to Wu Congzhen, not the Wu family.
Wu Congzhen is not young anymore, after his death Zhu Biao really may not give Wu family much favor, as for Yang'er Liang'er in this life, it is even more impossible, after all, it is just her grandmother who received a little care when she was young, it is not a big deal Grace of life.
But if Zhu Biao really decides the word order of the Wu family, then his sons and even grandsons must recognize this family relationship. After all, the Wu family will have some special treatment, and the minimum number of people promoted in each generation is at least.
The smile on Zhu Biao's face was slightly restrained. There is a limit to kindness, and every point will be lost. This is a matter of course. There is no endless love in the world. It's good to just treat him as an enemy.
"Sixth Uncle, you should think about it. Although I am the crown prince, I am still a junior in the Wu clan. It may not be appropriate to set the word order of the generation like this."
"The crown prince, the crown prince, and all the people rely on in the future. The Wu family is only one of the people under His Highness's rule. There is nothing inappropriate. If His Highness is grateful to you, the Wu family will be grateful."
