Zhu Yuanzhang returned to the palace and was about to go back to the Palace of Heavenly Purity to read the memorials when he saw two teenagers running towards him.
These two people were none other than the sons of the late Crown Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunyu.
Zhu Yuanzhang was in a good mood today. He immediately opened his arms, wanting to hug his two imperial grandchildren.
At this moment, Zhu Yunhao, who had been running all the way, suddenly flew out. At the same time, he fell to the ground and cried loudly.
Seeing this, Zhu Yunwen first ran over to pick up the shoes, then returned to the place where Zhu Yunhao fell, helped him up, and squatted on the ground to help him put on the shoes.
In the end, she even patted the dust off his body and comforted him.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly.
In general, he was very satisfied with Zhu Yunwen. His benevolent character was very like his father.
However, when he saw Zhu Yunhao, Zhu Yuanzhang could not help but frown.
There was no other way. No matter how he looked at it, this child was not good.
Not to mention his own grandfather, even his own uncle Lan Yu didn't like him.
Too weak!
She would cry when she encountered a setback, just like a girl.
Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhu Yunwen's hand and brought him to the Palace of Heavenly Purity, intending to test his homework.
As for Zhu Yunhao, he naturally followed.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang had already given up on him and planned to let him be a stable prince.
Fortunately, Zhu Yunwen was a gentle and kind child. Zhu Yunyan should not have a hard time in the future.
The three of them came to the Palace of Heavenly Purity. Zhu Yuanzhang took out a memorial and handed it to Zhu Yunwen, asking him to try to read it.
The moment Zhu Yunwen received the memorial, his heart was beating fast!
His mother had already mentioned to him many times that he had to perform well in front of Imperial Grandfather. He had to show his filial piety and benevolence.
Only by doing so could he gain the favor of his royal grandfather.
In fact, the main reason why Zhu Yunhao could fall just now was because of his shoes.
His mother had already ordered someone to tamper with Zhu Yunhao's shoes. As long as he ran hard, the shoes would definitely fly away and then fall to the ground.
This way, he could show his filial side.
However, he did not expect that just this one action would actually make Imperial Grandfather pay so much attention!
Not only did he personally pull him back to the palace, he even asked him to review the memorials!
One had to know that only the Crown Prince's father had the right to come into contact with this thing in the past!
The moment Zhu Yunwen opened the memorial, she felt her breathing quicken.
The content of the memorial was not complicated. It was a memorial requesting the imperial court to reduce taxes when the Northern Zhili's Baoding Prefecture encountered hail in late autumn, causing a large reduction in grain production.
After Zhu Yunwen finished reading it, she deliberated over her words and spoke slowly after a while.
His mother, Concubine Lu, had told him time and time again not to speak carelessly. If he didn't know what to say, he wouldn't say it.
It is better to be silent than to speak ten thousand words.
However, this was clearly not the time for silence. He could only think about what to say.
Little did he know that ever since Zhu Yunwen received the memorial, he had been constantly under Zhu Yuanzhang's observation.
It was his nervousness, the surprise and surprise in his eyes, all captured in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.
Zhu Yuanzhang compared Zhu Yunwen to Qin Mu and was slightly disappointed.
This child was still not calm enough!
He thought about how calm Qin Mu had been when he was facing a god of death like Blue Jade.
It was just a small piece of paper, but it actually made this child break out in sweat.
While Zhu Yuanzhang was silently calculating in his heart, Zhu Yunwen had also prepared her words.
"Reporting to Imperial Grandfather, I feel that the country is based on the people and benevolence.”
"Since Baoding Prefecture has suffered a disaster, the Imperial Court should no longer collect grain taxes and should grant the request of the local magistrate.”
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed.
"Yes, yes, Yun Wen's answer is right. The country should be based on benevolence and righteousness.”
After Zhu Yuanzhang praised Zhu Yunwen, he handed over another memorial.
"Come, take a look at this one."
Zhu Yunwen opened it and saw that it was another report about the disaster in Northern Zhili. However, this time, it was not from Baoding Prefecture but Hejian Prefecture. It said that locusts had crossed the border and damaged a lot of farmland. This year's grain tax might be affected and they requested the court to give permission.
With the example just now, Zhu Yunwen followed suit and said it more straightforwardly.
"Royal grandfather, your grandson feels that you should still allow it.”
"After all, that place has suffered a disaster. If the Imperial Court continues to collect grain, the lives of the people will definitely be very difficult.”
Zhu Yuanzhang gently stroked Zhu Yunwen's head and laughed.
"Good boy!"
"You should bring your little brother back to the Eastern Palace to study. Grandfather still has to read the memorials for a while.”
"Yes, sir!"
"Your grandson will take his leave!"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Yunwen kneeling on the ground and kowtowing respectfully like a little adult. Then, he led Zhu Yunwen away and could not help but sigh.
"Sigh!"
"This child is actually so gullible. When he becomes the emperor in the future, how will he control his subjects?”
After Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, he suddenly thought of Qin Mu who was outside the palace.
If the child were to see these two memorials, what would he choose?
