Chapter 4: How can a useless guy who was only emperor for four years have the nerve to lecture me?
Lu tried her best to control her emotions and spoke gently to Zhu Yunhuan.
"Yunxun must be starving. Mother will order someone to serve him food right away."
"yes!"
"I woke up hungry in the middle of the night and was looking forward to eating!"
"Please tell them to hurry up, I'm starving!"
After hearing what Zhu Yunhuan said, Mrs. Lu keenly noticed something unusual. This kid just called her "you" instead of calling her mother!
When Mrs. Lu realized this, she felt unhappy, but she couldn't get angry.
After all, her character is gentle, respectful, frugal, virtuous and kind. How could she lose her temper easily?
"Yunxun, this won't do."
"The palace has its own rules. Your eldest brother and the other brothers haven't arrived yet, so how can you serve the meal first?"
Zhu Yunhuan said a little irritably after hearing this.
"Then why are you wasting your time here? Why don't you hurry them up and go!"
"you……"
No matter how well-mannered Mrs. Lu was, she was somewhat broken down by Zhu Yunhuan's repeated offenses.
Who does this kid think he is? Is he his mother?
Originally, I wanted you to live a few more years, but now that you are so ungrateful, don't blame me for being ruthless!
"Don't worry, mother will send someone to urge them..."
In the end, Mrs. Lu restrained herself, walked out of the dining hall quickly, stood outside the door, gasping for breath, and tried her best to calm herself.
The moment Lu turned and walked out, Zhu Yunhuan looked at Lu's back and a sneer flashed across his face.
As long as I don’t offend Zhu Yuanzhang, no one in this Ming Dynasty can control me!
Besides, do you really think I have no idea how your stepmother treated the original Zhu Yunhuan?
If you had been nicer to the original Zhu Yunhuan, I would not have had the chance to travel through time!
Zhu Yunhuan just took a good look at his body in the dining hall. He was thin, short, and looked very bad.
He initially determined that his body was at least suffering from long-term malnutrition. As for whether he had symptoms of chronic poisoning, he would have to discuss it with the imperial physician another day.
Because according to the general logic of time travel, the time traveler can only successfully travel through time after the original owner's soul has collapsed due to long-term unfair treatment.
From this, it can be inferred that this stepmother who has nothing to do with Zhu Yunhuan is definitely the biggest suspect.
Therefore, there was no need for him to be polite to her, let alone call her mother.
To put it bluntly, these are all excuses. The fundamental reason is that Zhu Yunhuan didn't want to call such a young woman "mother".
Zhu Yunhuan waited for a while, and Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yunhuan and others came into the dining hall one after another.
Zhu Yunwen greeted him very politely, and Zhu Yunwen carefully sat down halfway on the chair.
When Zhu Yunhuan saw his movement, he knew that someone had released kinetic energy on his butt yesterday.
But think about it, if I were Mrs. Lu, I would never forgive this rebellious son.
She laughed loudly in the prince's mourning hall and said that there was no need to pretend to cry anymore. Such outrageous words were said, and it was a sign of her deep love for her son that she didn't beat him to death on the spot.
After everyone was seated, the eunuchs in charge of serving meals brought in breakfast one after another.
When Zhu Yunhuan saw the food, he only felt hungrier and kept swallowing his saliva.
Although the breakfast was not rich, it was nothing more than ordinary things such as porridge, cakes, pot stickers, soup dumplings, etc., with a few stir-fried dishes, plus a mutton, radish and vermicelli soup.
But for Zhu Yunhuan, who had been hungry for half the night, this was already the ultimate delicacy.
Almost as soon as the food was placed on the table, Zhu Yunhuan grabbed a piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth.
His action frightened everyone at the table.
Because the Lu family was very strict in family management, they, the children, were not allowed to pick up their chopsticks until their parents and elders came to the table!
When Zhu Yunwen saw Zhu Yunxun put another plate of pot stickers and a basket of soup dumplings in front of him, he couldn't bear it anymore and scolded him quickly.
"Second brother, how can you be so rude!"
"Mother hasn't even come to the table yet, and you're eating first. This is against etiquette!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunhuan rolled his eyes at Zhu Yunwen, and a piece of historical information suddenly emerged in his mind.
In the fourth year of Jianwen, Zhu Di attacked Nanjing. Prince Gu Zhu Tan and Li Jinglong opened the Jinchuan Gate to surrender. Nanjing fell and a fire broke out in the palace. Zhu Yunwen's whereabouts were unknown.
How dare you, a useless piece of shit who was only emperor for four years, lecture me?
"Brother, let me correct you. That is your mother, not my mother."
"My mother, Concubine Chang, died a long time ago!"
Zhu Yunhuan said something to Zhu Yunwen, then started eating without restraint.
His bold and unrestrained style immediately aroused the envy of several concubines in the Prince's Mansion.
In fact, they were also hungry, but they did not dare to do what Zhu Yunhuan did and could only wait in silence.
No matter how incompetent Zhu Yunhuan was, he would be crowned king in the future, and their future was completely in the hands of the Lu family.
If they angered Mrs. Lu and found them a cowardly husband in the future, their lives would be ruined!
Lu stayed outside the door for a long time before she felt a little better. But when she stepped into the dining hall and saw the little bastard Zhu Yunhuan eating with relish, she was furious again.
Zhu Yunwen had just received a beating from Lu yesterday, and now he was trying to please his mother and make a good impression on himself.
Therefore, when he saw Lu coming in, he immediately stood up and reported the matter.
"Mother, Zhu Yunhuan ate without waiting for you. Just now, my eldest brother scolded him, and he said that you are not his mother, and his mother died a long time ago!"
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she became so angry that her face turned pale.
But she didn't dare to scold Zhu Yunhuan, so she could only vent her anger on Zhu Yunhuan.
"Shut up!"
"Mother has always taught you to be friendly and respectful to your brothers. Is this how you say your brother?"
"I……"
Zhu Yunwen felt very aggrieved when he heard this, and thought to himself, am I not protecting you?
Zhu Yunhuan understood that Lu was making a veiled attack on someone else.
But he didn't care, because he had already established his development strategy and would move out soon.
However, before moving out, he didn't want to have too much trouble with his stepmother.
After all, I still have to make a living under her nose.
If the other party deliberately trips you up, your life will definitely not be easy.
"Crown Princess, I was so hungry just now that I didn't care about so many rules. I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive me."
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she forced a stiff smile on her face.
"Yun Hun, your words are too serious. Your mother and I are like sisters. I have always treated you as my own child. How could I be angry with you?"
"If you are hungry, feel free to eat. If it is not enough, I will order someone to prepare it again and make sure my son is well fed."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunhuan did not hesitate to take the only mutton pot on the table and directly brought it to himself, and started drinking from the soup.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Princess!"
When Mrs. Lu saw Zhu Yunhuan being so rude, her expression changed several times again. Then she walked to the main seat with a swift step, slammed her chopsticks and shouted.
"Eat!"
