Li Jundu dragged his tired body back to the palace. Seeing the princess Chen Yourong urged the waiter to pack up his things with his big belly, even the guards of the palace came to help. Seeing his wife, Li Jundu felt much more happy and held her waist and said, "It's been nine months now, so don't you stop."

"It was a message from the palace that the Empress went to Shenjing after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and first went to settle down. I asked me to go with me at that time. I will be out of confinement and agreed. Since I was going to go there, we should pack up our house's things, so I will save myself from going to the time when I set off. By the way, has the emperor talked to you about the new palace?" Chen Yourong asked.

Li Jundu nodded: "The emperor asked me to choose first. I thought about it and let the third brother choose first. I don't know how the third brother chooses. If he has to go there first, then you will be in vain."

"Then you go and talk to the third brother and let him choose one first." Chen Yourong asked with a smile.

"How dare I urge him? If he conveyed the words to the emperor's ears, my magnanimity would have become a quarrel." Li Jundu said lightly.

"You are, the older you are, the more timid you are. You are so polite to deal with government affairs, and the same is true for your own affairs. Regal is your brother, and you are so young. I have nothing to say. One day he comes, I will tell him." Chen Yourong has a good relationship with his brother-in-law and does not feel that there are so many constraints.

"You are heavy, don't make trouble." Li Jundu advised.

As he was talking, the guard came to report that the third prince had arrived. Li Junwei ran in. He called out to his elder brother, then handed over the niece he was holding to Chen Yourong, and ordered the guard: "Hurry, take me to the toilet, I'll be suffocating along the way."

It turned out that he came out of the palace and took Li Jundu's daughter. When he passed by the street, the little girl insisted on drinking this cold drink and the soup. Li Junwei had to buy it and let her taste it one by one. He was afraid that she would lose her stomach, so he mostly entered his own mouth. He felt depressed and uncomfortable all the way.

After coming out of the toilet, Li Junwei said happily: "Brother, sister-in-law, I had a dream yesterday. I dreamed that my sister-in-law gave birth to a child and gave birth to a boy. I cried loudly, and my voice was even more powerful than thunder."

Li Jundu smiled on his face when he heard this. What he likes to hear the most now is this. He especially hopes that his wife will give birth to a son in this way, so that she will become the eldest grandson of the royal family.

"Third brother, you're smearing your little mouth, why are you doing here?" Li Jundu asked.

Li Junwei said proudly: "Did you know, Dad said that I will choose the house on Shenjing. Which one should I choose? When I become an adult, it will be my royal palace. I won't come to discuss with my sister-in-law which one to choose. I want to ask my sister-in-law which one I like. I will choose one that is close to you. You can see the map and I will bring it all."

"If you don't go to Shen Jing to take a look, you're just picking it?" Li Jundu asked.

Li Junwei glanced at him and said, "I have to understand it too. I am not interested in the flowers and plants courtyard. We don't care about Feng Shui or something. I thought about it and the most important thing is to see who the neighbor is. Brother, don't you pick it?"

Li Junduo saw Lin Xitang coming from afar and responded casually: "Your sister-in-law has the final say in this kind of thing."

Chen Yourong called Li Junwei to walk into the hall. Li Junwei was excited and boasted: "I just took An'er to my father's house and asked for grace. Not only did we want to live, but we also had the final say in the neighbors. For those Dukes and Marquis, whoever you want to be neighbors, you will be neighbors. If you don't want to be next to anyone, let him get out of the distance, we will pick the rest, and let them divide them..."

After entering the study, Lin Xitang asked, "Your Highness, has the matter of disarmament been settled?"

Li Jundu nodded slightly and said what he said in the imperial study today. Lin Xitang clasped his fists and said, "Congratulations to Your Highness, if the emperor says something, this matter will be easier. At least the Congress and the cabinet know that your plan has been recognized by the emperor."

Li Jundu had no intention of laughing and said, "Clean Shangtun, the prince will do it alone. My disarmament requires the emperor to take action. No one can tell who is better or worse."

No matter what he thought, Li Jundu felt bored and waved his hand: "If you don't mention this, what's your matter?"

"It's the prince's business. In Shen Jing, he met with the members and veterans of the parliamentary group..." Lin Xitang described Li Junhua's whereabouts and works in detail. Li Jundu ignored the prince's political actions. He knew very well that when the Japanese civil war broke out, even if the matter of Shangtun was settled, the prince's good or bad things would be just a difference between full marks or excellent results.

However, Li Jundu was very concerned about the prince’s personal affairs. Hearing the prince met Han Zhiwei on the boat, and the two of them traveled to Shen Jing privately and asked, “As you said, the prince and that woman have rekindled their old love again?”

"It can be said that His Royal Highness often meets with her, who is dressed as a man, and often leaves the guard and goes out in a private outfit..." Lin Xitang bit the word "吉" very seriously.

"Let your people continue to monitor and don't act rashly." Li Jundu said.

Lin Xitang said again: "The prince will return to Beijing soon, but he came along the canal by boat. Given that the two of them often travel privately......"

Li Jundu understood what Lin Xitang was going to say, shook his head slightly, then thought for a while, paced back and forth in the study, sighed, and shook his head firmly.

When Li Junhua returned from Shen Jing, it was almost Mid-Autumn Festival. When he entered the palace, he saw a lantern and decorative color. He went straight to Changchun Palace. Seeing the emperor and the queen tasting something around the table, he walked over and saw that it was just a box of mooncakes. When he saw the gift, the queen said, "Junhua, come and taste these five-nut mooncakes, which were made by your uncle himself."

After tasting a piece, it felt pretty good. Li Junhua also knew what his mother meant and said, "Then let's make some mooncakes together today and send them to my uncle to try."

"Even so, you can't compare with your uncle's. The flour used to make mooncakes is the wheat produced in the farmland that your uncle is responsible for. He personally threshed, dried, and grinded the oil. He squeezed the peanuts he planted. Even the walnuts, melon seeds, peanuts, almonds and sesame seeds inside were picked by him. It is said that the walnut tree was planted when he entered the first year..." the queen said ravingly.

Li Mingxun also knew what his wife meant. In recent years, the War Criminal Management Office has pardoned many people, especially on the fifth anniversary of the liberation, hundreds of people were pardoned. A group of people will be pardoned as appropriate during the Birthday Festival every year. However, Zhu Youlang's status is special. No matter how good his performance is, the Management Office dares not put his name on the pardon list. The queen took this opportunity to mention her brother's goodness.

"You go and prepare some ingredients, and make some together today. Find some time. You and Junhua go and see him." Li Mingxun said with a smile.

When the queen left, Li Mingxun said: "What about Shen Jing? Have you seen the Imperial City?"

Speaking of the serious matter, Li Junhua became serious: "Shen Jing's son in the imperial city has seen it. It is generally good. Although some places have not been reported, the people below still deliberately bought a lot of them. They also took a special look at the temple built by Empress Zeng. The minister was not very satisfied, but the person in charge said that it was the eldest brother who gave the explanation, saying that it was the same as the Taipei set. "

"Well, he has given me some instructions, so let's do what he does." Li Mingxun nodded slightly.

"I looked at the residence of the Zongwang, and the other nobles also chose to look at it, and they were all in line. The construction and other things were basically stopped. My son visited some construction workers privately, and most of the project payment was paid. I asked the locals again, but nothing bad happened. Overall, it was still appropriate." Li Junhua said again.

"In this way, I feel relieved. This errand was done well, and the cleaning of the Shang Village was done very well." Li Mingxun held up the teacup and said, "Your brother did a good job in disarmament, so I will reward you as appropriate, so that the third brother can help get the matters of the royal palace. Your errand was done better. After thinking about it, I don't know what to reward you."

"My son is just doing his best, and he dare not ask for rewards." Seeing that the emperor was satisfied, Li Junhua humbled himself.

Li Mingxun said: "A bowl of water must be flattened. If you do well, you should give it your reward. This is how you promise you a grace. Just say whatever you want."

After hearing this, Li Junhua became embarrassed. The first thing he thought of was Han Zhiwei, and then he remembered his mother's concern for his uncle. After thinking about it, he was always unable to make up his mind. Li Mingxun smiled: "It seems that you have many wishes."

"Son minister.........This, son minister..." Li Junhua didn't know how to answer.

Li Mingxun smiled: "Forget it, I know you have been very serious since childhood. Let's do it like this. Go back and think about it carefully. Let's talk about it on the Mid-Autumn Festival. I'm very happy that you did a good job. Even if you mention it, I won't agree."

Li Junhua quickly thanked him. At this time, the queen also brought people in. Li Mingxun pulled the prince over and said in his ear: "Don't tell your mother, otherwise you will not be the one who decides."

Two days later, Li Junhua arrived at Pei Yuanqi's villa. Han Zhiwei lived in again. When he saw Han Zhiwei, Li Junhua asked, "Did you eat the mooncakes I sent to you the day before yesterday?"

"have eaten."

“How does it feel?”

Han Zhiwei replied casually: "It's pretty good. Apart from being harder, saltier, more dry, ugly, and a little rough. There is no other problem. You can't make it yourself."

Li Junhua shook his head: "That was made by my uncle."

"Your uncle... Emperor Yongli?" Han Zhiwei blurted out.

Li Junhua nodded: "Didn't you always think about restoring the rule of the Ming Dynasty? How about it? Would you be very happy to eat the mooncakes made by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty?"

Han Zhiwei didn't know how to answer, so she was quiet for a while and asked, "Why did you mention him today?"

The two of them never mentioned Zhu Youlang. This was the first time. Li Junhua said: "When I came back, I went to my father's place to report. My father praised me for doing a good job and gave me a grace."

"Will this happen between you and the emperor? You are the prince, everything he has to do in the future, and what do you need as the prince?" Han Zhiwei was puzzled.

"You don't understand. There is my elder brother here, and a bowl of water will be leveled." Li Junhua said.

"What did the emperor reward you?"

"A grace, if I ask, I will follow it, and it will be fulfilled on the Mid-Autumn Festival." Li Junhua did not hide it, and Han Zhiwei sat opposite Li Junhua, with hope on her face and asked, "Then what kind of grace are you going to ask for?"

Li Junhua shook his head slightly and said, "If it were me alone, I would tell my father about you. If it were my mother, she would ask me to forgive my uncle and let him be free. If it were you, you would definitely let me repay this grace to your adoptive father and others. So, I am very conflicted."

After Li Junhua expressed what he thought, Han Zhiwei's face turned red. She lowered her head and said, "So you already know what I want, why do you still come to me?"

Li Junhua said: "You are a very special girl. After you know my identity, your performance is more rational than I imagined, and you are so smart..., do you know? My father told me that reason and wisdom are the two most dazzling lights in human beings, and you have them."

"You praise me so much, do you want me to accept your decision not to use this grace to save my adoptive father?" Han Zhiwei asked.

Li Junhua smiled slightly and didn't say anything. Seeing him like this, Han Zhiwei thought deeper and said, "No, I was wrong. If you made this decision, you shouldn't tell me."

Li Junhua smiled and nodded, while Han Zhiwei asked, "Then why did you tell me?"

"Stay guessing." Li Junhua deliberately did not say it out loud.

Han Zhiwei thought carefully and said, "Using me is your intention, and using my adoptive father is my intention. No matter who we are using, at least one of us is proud, but there is your uncle, which is too unfair to him, right?"

Li Junhua nodded, he was exactly what he meant. Han Zhiwei asked: "Have you ever gone to Tianzhu to ask your adoptive father and others?"

"What are you asking them to ask their father to pardon my uncle, your Emperor Yongli?" Li Junhua smiled.

Han Zhiwei meant this, but she also knew that her adoptive father and others would agree that they would rather stay in the prison than let Yongli be free. After all, for the people of the Zhongsi Group, the Ming Dynasty is the belief and the motivation for them to survive.

Li Junhua said, "I didn't ask, just because the time is not right."

“When is the time?”

"If this grace is applied to my uncle in the end, I will ask, and then use the inevitable answer as a reason to convince you, so that you will not annoy me again, hate me, and leave me again because of this." Li Junhua expressed his true meaning.

"You said so much to me and praised me a lot. You must have something to do, right?" Han Zhiwei asked.

Li Junhua said, "I want to take you to Changping together to meet my uncle, your Emperor Yongli. After seeing him, we will decide, okay?"
