"Your Majesty intends to praise you."
The implication is, regardless of whether you are the emperor's son or not, since the emperor is willing to recognize you, you should happily obey, wouldn't everything be fine?
Don't compare it to the truth.
You have to face the emperor in front of so many people, even if the emperor loves you, you are too ignorant of flattery.
But Lu Lin still didn't kneel down, let alone admit his mistake.
No, no, why do you want to recognize it indiscriminately?
Originally, it was enough to be reluctant to recognize a cheap daddy, but after all, after I crossed over, there was blood from other people flowing in my body, so I had to admit it.
But between him and the emperor, it was purely a misunderstanding caused by the emperor's deliberate deception.
Now that the truth is out, the misunderstanding should be cleared up, instead of making mistakes and just admitting to a father.
If the emperor is not his father, then his father must be someone else.
He has already learned from Yu Qian that his own father did not go to Changsha to look for him, so his father's whereabouts are unknown now.
As a son of man, if he didn't look for it, he would mistakenly accept the emperor as his father for the sake of glory and wealth.
Is that still human?
So Lu Lin spoke out his thoughts in public. Of course, he only talked about his misunderstanding with the emperor and his own father's whereabouts. As a son, he should look for it.
He didn't say anything else, let alone the emperor's deliberate deception, which can be regarded as a step forward for the emperor.
Sure enough, Zhu Di's face softened when he heard the words.
But I was scolding Lu Lin from the bottom of my heart, don't I know you are not my son, I am giving you a title, and it doesn't count as the father you have called me for so long.
Besides, is it embarrassing to be my Zhu Di's son?
How many people want to be me and still ignore them, ignorant of good and evil.
And you are looking for a fucking father, your father was killed by the Tatars long ago on the way to do business, I have already locked up the culprit, and even took you to take revenge, so that you personally avenged this.
But since he didn't want to, Zhu Di didn't want to force it either.
Twisted melons are not sweet.
It's just a pity that I have paved the way for him painstakingly, little bastard.
"Since you don't want to, then I won't force you."
"Since you have made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty many times, I will make you an earl, with three thousand households in the city."
From the recognition of the son, to the marquis of ten thousand households, and then to the earl, three thousand households in the city, this discount is so cruel.
The ministers speculated that His Majesty was so angry with Lu Lin that he even withdrew the Marquis Wanhu who originally wanted to reward him.
But no one thought it was wrong, after all, if he dared to show His Majesty's face in public, it would have been good if His Majesty hadn't cut him off, how could he expect a reward?
It's like eating the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard.
Seeing that the emperor withdrew his order, Lu Lin immediately said, "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to, but that I'm indeed not your son."
This must be explained clearly, otherwise it will make people think that although he did not recognize the emperor as Lao Tzu, he is a true royal blood.
The royal blood will bring him endless troubles. First of all, the crown prince, King Han, and King Zhao will never let him go easily. They will find him trouble if they get the chance, or even be more ruthless. endlessly.
The second is him and Jiaxing. If he is really mistaken for the emperor's son, wouldn't he and Jiaxing become uncles and nephews?
If he goes to the prince's mansion to propose marriage in the future, people will think he is a pervert.
So this matter must not be sloppy and must be made clear in person.
Zhu Di didn't expect him to be so serious, he frowned unconsciously, and said in a very dissatisfied tone: "Being my son, why have you been wronged so much?"
"I dare not."
Don't dare?
Look at you, you don't even dare to look at me.
It is clear that he is very daring, the second child is so arrogant and domineering, he dare not speak to me like this.
Boss is so pedantic, he wouldn't be so disobedient to me.
It’s just that you dare, and you still say you don’t dare, you ask everyone present, does anyone believe it?
Zhu Di was very angry, but still suppressed his anger.
Lu Lin saw that the emperor seemed to be really angry with him, so he had no choice but to soften his tone and coax him.
"Your Majesty, my minister is selfish, my minister..."
Lu Lin hesitated for a moment, and finally summoned up his courage; "I love Princess Jiaxing and want to marry Princess Jiaxing. If I recognize the emperor as my father, I can't marry Princess Jiaxing."
When Zhu Di heard this, he was stunned.
When the ministers heard this, they were also stunned.
What, he loves Jiaxing?Want to marry Jiaxing?
Did I hear you right, what he just said was not the grandson, but Jiaxing?
"Who do you say you admire?" Zhu Di asked uncertainly.
Lu Lin was stopped by his question, and he didn't quite understand what he meant. Could it be that he was not allowed to marry?
Although my heart was pounding, I still said firmly: "Princess Jiaxing."
Zhu Di was still stunned for a moment, not convinced: "It's Jiaxing, not Taisun?"
Lu Lin:? ?
Ministers:? ? ?
"The great-grandson...he's a man, right?" Lu Lin couldn't handle it anymore. Could it be that Daming has two great-grandchildren, one male and one female?
Zhu Di immediately realized that he was delighted: "Jiaxing is good, you and Jiaxing are very suitable."
He actually wants to marry Jiaxing, so he and his grandson are fine?
This is good news, even more joyful than the complete victory of the Northern Expedition.
