When Zhu Yuanzhang walked to the door of the palace, the Imperial Army retreated to the back to stand guard.
Looking at the tightly shut doors and the lifeless palace, Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts seemed to have returned to nine years ago.
"Xiong Ying, you brat, did you mischievously put bugs in our shoes?”
"I'm going to beat your ass today.”
Zhu Yuanzhang cursed viciously.
He was chasing after a seven-year-old child.
"Grandma, my grandfather is crazy. He's going to kill your grandson.”
"Help!"
The little child was so scared that he cried out and ran towards the bedroom.
Just as he reached the door.
A woman dressed in palace clothes walked out. When she saw the little child, a kind smile hung on her face. She immediately picked him up and was full of love.
After Empress Ma picked up the young Zhu Xiongying, she turned her gaze and immediately became angry as she looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Zhu Zhongba, do you want to die?"
"Why are you wooing my grandson like this?" Empress Ma said angrily.
"Sister, you don't know this brat.”
"He mischievously threw bedbugs into our shoes.”
Seeing Empress Ma, Zhu Yuanzhang shrunk his neck and immediately defended himself.
"Isn't the child being naughty? Why are you chasing after him and hitting him? I won't allow you to scare my grandson like this.”Empress Ma didn't care about that and hugged Zhu Xiongying tightly.
"Hehe, my grandmother is still the best." Zhu Xiongying chuckled and hugged his grandmother affectionately.
She couldn't help but glance at her grandfather from the corner of her eye, as if to say, I'm not afraid. My grandmother is here.
"Little sister, you can indulge me."
"I'm scared." Zhu Yuanzhang could only admit defeat helplessly.
"I will spoil my grandson. I won't let anyone bully him.”Empress Ma hugged her grandson dotingly.
"I like Grandma the most."
"Grandma is the best."
Zhu Xiong Ying said intimately.
……
The scenes of the past appeared in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, causing him to pause for a long time.
After a while.
Thousands of thoughts turned into sadness.
"Sigh."
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed.
He came back to his senses.
It was still quiet here. The warmth and memories of the past were just bubbles.
He pushed the door open.
Zhu Yuanzhang slowly walked to the only place that could give him peace.
He walked straight into the hall.
There was an eye-catching memorial tablet erected inside.
It wasn't an inscription with an honorific title like the one on Xiao Ling. It was just a memorial tablet that Zhu Yuanzhang had set up himself.
He looked at the memorial tablet and said,"The memorial tablet of my wife, Ma Xiuying, and the memorial tablet of my husband, Zhu Zhong."”
There was a small memorial tablet on the side of the memorial tablet.
"The memorial tablet of Sun Zhu Xiong Ying was established by his grandfather Zhu Zhong.”
Zhu Yuanzhang slowly walked to the two memorial tablets, and the tears that had been tense outside could no longer be held back.
"Sister."
"Chongba is here to see you."
"Xiong Ying."
"Grandfather is here."
Zhu Yuanzhang sat in front of the memorial tablet, tears streaming down his face.
This bedchamber was his most peaceful place, but it was also the place that made him the saddest.
Every time he came here.
Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang reveal his true self. The weakness that he could not show in front of anyone was also revealed.
Within the bedroom.
In front of his beloved wife and grandson, he was not Zhu Yuanzhang, but Zhu Zhongba.
"Sister, Xiong Ying."
"More than eight years."
"You've already left us for eight years.”
"Do you know how we've been living these past eight years?”
"I really…I want to hear you call me Chongba again even in my dreams. I want to hear Xiong Ying call me grandpa again.”
"But…this is just my desire.”
"Do you know?"
"Xu Da…Our old brother also passed away just now. Another old brother left us…"
"Sister, Xiong Ying, I really miss you guys…"
Zhu Yuanzhang said with tears in his eyes. He missed her and said all the words buried in his heart.
At this moment.
Time seemed to have stopped in this bedroom.
It made people linger.
……
As the news of Xu Da's death spread, the entire Ying Tian Prefecture was shaken.
Countless people were shocked by this.
The entire Public House was white.
Everyone was dressed in plain clothes.
Crown Prince Zhu Biao was also dressed in plain clothes. This time, when Xu Da died, Zhu Yuanzhang let him preside over it for this reason. However, the one who was dressed in plain clothes was not the Crown Prince, but his nephew Zhu Biao.
"Second brother, did you hear what father said to little sister before he left?”
"Father doesn't mean to object to Little Sister and that merchant. What should we do?”Xu Zengshou looked at his second brother solemnly.
"A merchant, the most lowly person in Great Ming.”
"If little sister really marries this person, then my Xu family will become the laughing stock of the Yingtian Prefecture and even the world. I will definitely not allow this.”Xu Yingxu said coldly.
"But father's words have shown his attitude. Eldest Brother has always listened to father, so he won't stop him.”Xu Zengshou said.
"If Big Brother doesn't stop us, can't we?”
"As long as that brat never comes to the Ying Tian Prefecture, then it will be impossible between him and little sister. In just a few years, little sister will forget about him.”Xu Yingxu said.
"Don't tell me I have to?"
Xu Zengshou raised his hand and placed it on his neck, his eyes cold and fierce.
"It's still the same sentence."
"Send someone to keep an eye on him. As long as he doesn't come to the Yingtian Prefecture, he's still the benefactor of our Xu family. If he dares to come, then he can't blame us.”Xu Yingxu's eyes flashed with killing intent.
"Yes." Xu Zengshou also nodded.
