Daming: At the beginning, recognize Zhu Yuanzhang as grandfather!

Chapter 97 We want to make you the heir apparent of Ming Dynasty!

Metropolitan Procuratorate.

This institution was created by the Ming Dynasty. In the 13th year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang dismissed Yushitai, and in 15th year it was relocated to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

The duty of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is to picket exclusively, impeach all officials, defend injustice, and supervise various departments.

Impeach those who are treacherous ministers, villains who form a party, who are powerful and disorderly, all officials who are corrupt and corrupt officials are impeached, all academics are not correct, and those who submit letters and statements turn into constitutions and hope to use them are impeached.

Zhan Hui is now the censor of the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Zhan Hui is also the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

This person Zhan Hui can be said to be a popular person in front of Emperor Hongwu. In the 15th year of Hongwu, he was a scholar and was immediately appointed as the censor of the seventh-rank supervisory capital. Pin Zuodu Yushi.

In just over a year, he was promoted from the seventh rank to the second rank, and promotion was not a matter of displeasure.

But in the 26th year of Hongwu, Zhan Hui was involved in the blue jade conspiracy and was executed.

Today's Metropolitan Procuratorate is extraordinarily lively.

Because Sapphire bound his adopted sons to come.

There were more than 1000 people standing in the small square in front of the gate of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

"General Lan, what's going on?"

Zhan Hui walked towards Lan Yu quickly, with a look of doubt on his face.

Sapphire looked at Zhan Hui, and said seriously: "Zhan Yushi, these bastards are usually lawless and misbehaving, so this time we arrested these bastards and handed them over to the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Pursue responsibility, exile or decapitation, it all depends on the interrogation of the Metropolitan Procuratorate."

"This……"

When Zhan Hui heard this, he was stunned.

A group of military generals headed by Lan Yu are arrogant and lawless. As the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, of course he knows it.

But Zhan Hui didn't impeach Lan Yu and the others like Liu Ji did at the beginning, because Zhan Hui didn't want to offend Lan Yu. As crazy as Lan Yu was on the battlefield, she was as crazy in officialdom.

Liu Ji back then was the best example.

Because of Liu Ji's impeachment, Lan Yu wanted to kill Liu Ji wholeheartedly. In addition to complaining to Zhu Yuanzhang, Lan Yu almost couldn't help but want to do it a few times on the road.

So for Lan Yu, Zhan Hui would not be so stupid as to impeach him. Zhan Hui didn't have the qualifications that Liu Ji had back then.

On the contrary, Zhan Hui is exquisite in all aspects. Unlike other civil servants, he has a good relationship with generals, which is why he was later involved in the Lanyu case.

According to unofficial records, Zhan Hui was slandered by Lan Yu when he was interrogating Lan Yu, and then was taken down by Zhu Yunqi, and then punished.

But in fact, if he hadn't gotten too close to Lan Yu, how could Emperor Hongwu kill him?
Looking at Su Rong's Lan Yu, Zhan Hui smiled and said, "General Lan, are you joking with the lower officials?"

"Do you think I, Sapphire, have the spare time to joke with you?"

Lan Yu looked at Zhan Hui with a straight face.

Zhan Hui couldn't make it right now, did Lan Yu take the wrong medicine?
He and his adopted sons have always been arrogant and domineering, and they are well-known in the capital. Lan Yu is actually fine, after all, he is in a high position and disdains to do those petty things, but his adopted sons are different.

It is undeniable that some of Sapphire's adopted sons are indeed talented people, but there are also some sycophants among them, a mixed bag of fish and dragons, which also makes Sapphire's adopted sons have a very bad reputation among the people.

However, because of the presence of sapphire, the government can only turn a blind eye.

I don't want to think that today, Lan Yu took the initiative to tie more than 1000 adopted sons to the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Please the Metropolitan Procuratorate handle it impartially?

Now, is the sun coming out from the west?
Even though Zhan Hui is talented and decisive, he still can't figure it out!
Lan Yu put her big hand on Zhan Hui's shoulder and said, "You can do whatever you want, and you don't need to worry about me."

After all, Sapphire strode away without looking back, and Zhan Hui behind her looked dazed...

……

Hall of Martial Arts.

Hearing Jin Yiwei's report on the situation of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.

"Lan Yu, Lan Yu, this time you have a good eye, you should really thank our eldest grandson."

Just then, the serving eunuch came in, holding a memorial with feathers in his hand.

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent memorial for seven hundred miles from Yunnan."

"Yunnan?"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned when he heard the words, and quickly took the memorabilia handed over by the eunuch, opened it and was stunned.

Zhu Yuanzhang remained motionless, as if he had taken root.

for a long time.

Zhu Yuanzhang let out a long breath, and said softly, "Mu Ying, Mu Ying, why don't you leave!"

When Zhu Xiongying entered the Hall of Martial Heroes, he quickly noticed that the atmosphere today seemed a little different from the past.

Because there was no smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's face, replaced by dullness and sadness.

"Grandfather, what's the matter?" Zhu Xiongying asked softly.

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to look away from a distance, looked at Zhu Xiongying, and said slowly: "Grand grandson, your Uncle Muying, he... has left."

"Muying... Uncle?"

Zhu Xiongying was slightly taken aback.

Of course, he didn't have much impression of Mu Ying, but he knew that Mu Ying, like Li Jinglong's father Li Wenzhong, was the adopted son of the old man.

Zhu Yuanzhang adopted many adopted sons during the war, and these adopted sons also played an important role in Zhu Yuanzhang's struggle for hegemony.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang's adoptive son is different from Lan Yu's.

Zhu Yuanzhang's adopted sons are all helpless orphans. From the very beginning, Zhu Yuanzhang never thought of using these adopted sons, because he himself was born as an orphan and knew the pain of orphans, so he and Ma Xiuying sincerely gave these adopted sons Child as his own child.

The couple took these children with them and treated them almost equally with their sons.

Ma Xiuying personally taught these children to read and teach these children the principles of life, while Zhu Yuanzhang taught them the ability to lead soldiers and fight.

These children did not disappoint the cultivation of Zhu Yuanzhang and his wife.

After growing up, all of them were good. They followed Zhu Yuanzhang to charge into battle and made great military exploits for the founding of Ming Dynasty.

"Grandpa, sorry."

Zhu Xiongying knew that Muying's departure would be another big blow to the old man.

"Hey--"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed: "We are old and our hair is gray, but the gods let us send white-haired people to black-haired people again and again. Oh, our heart is really broken."

As he said that, Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes, making people feel much older for a moment.

He was ruthless all his life and killed countless people, but he valued his family more than anyone else.

Zhu Xiongying didn't know how to comfort him, but stood beside the old man quietly, accompanying him.

Zhu Yuanzhang opened his eyes, looked at Zhu Xiongying, and there was a touch of relief in his eyes: "Da Sun, it's good that you are by our side, otherwise we really don't know how to live this life!"

"Did you know? During the time when Biao'er left, we lived with no one and no ghosts. Sometimes at night, we often thought, why don't we just go with them and live alone for so long Make a ball!"

"But we can't leave. The Daming country that we worked so hard to build can't be left without someone to inherit..."

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang's tiger eyes shed tears silently.

"It wasn't until the appearance of you, grandson, that we found the meaning of living again. You may not know that the days with you are the happiest days we have lived in these years."

"But we, we just got happy, your Uncle Muying is gone again!"

"That kid Muying is loyal and kind, has both ability and political integrity, and is absolutely loyal to us. Under his governance, the Southwest is well-organized, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. With him in charge, we have never worried about it. I thought he would..."

"I wanted to let him continue to assist our descendants and guard the southwest for our Daming, but...but he just left, and now let us send white-haired people to black-haired people again..."

Zhu Yuanzhang babbled on, his face and clothes had already been wet with tears, and he couldn't help sobbing suppressedly.

Zhu Xiongying squatted in front of the old man, grabbed his hand, and said with concern: "Grandpa, take care of the dragon body!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with tears in his eyes: "Don't worry, we won't fall, and we can't."

As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve.

Wiping away the tears, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up again like beads wiping off dust, staring at Zhu Xiongying, and said slowly: "Now the imperial court is empty, we know that many people are staring at that position, we here Once it falls, chaos will immediately occur in the imperial court."

"Let us know about your Uncle Mu Ying, what is impermanence in the world."

"so……"

Zhu Yuanzhang took a light breath, stared at Zhu Xiongying with burning eyes, and said solemnly: "So, we want to make you the heir apparent of Ming Dynasty!"

The sound was not loud, but it fell on Zhu Xiongying's ears like a thunderbolt.

He has confidence in his crown prince position, but confidence is confidence, and it is another matter to say it from the mouth of the old man.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
Zhu Xiongying could hear his heart beating like a drum.

He is going to be the crown prince!
He is going to become the future heir of the Ming Dynasty!
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes fell on Zhu Xiongying's face flushed with excitement, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

"Why, no?"

Zhu Xiongying seemed to wake up from a start, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground, and bowed deeply to the old man on the seat: "Grandfather, grandson, thank you!"

Zhu Yuanzhang finally showed a gratified smile.

Stretching out a pair of big hands, Zhu Yuanzhang personally helped Zhu Xiongying up, squeezed Zhu Xiongying's arm firmly, looked at Zhu Xiongying with burning eyes, and said firmly: "Da Sun, from now on, you will be the heir apparent of the Ming Dynasty. We are dead, you are the emperor of Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Xiongying clenched his fists again, met Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze, and said, "Grandpa, that will be a long, long time to come!"

"Ah--"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "Good boy, come and sit beside us!"

Zhu Xiongying sat down as promised.

Zhu Yuanzhang said leisurely: "In fact, a long time ago, in our hearts, we identified you, but we are not in a hurry to tell you, we want to spend more time with you as an ordinary person, but time waits for no one. !"

"Country, don't live without storage for a day!"

"We want you to formally recognize your ancestor and return to your clan on the Longevity Day, and tell heaven and earth, ancestor, to enshrine you as the great-grandson of Emperor Ming, do you think so?"

"Everything depends on the arrangement of the emperor's grandfather." Zhu Xiongying replied gratefully.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded: "We will help you arrange everything, and you have to prepare yourself, understand?"

"Grandson understands!"

At this moment, Zhu Xiongying is still emotional.

Become the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and he will be able to display his ambitions in a fair manner!
Looking at Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.

The establishment of the crown prince is a kind of inheritance of life and an alternation of rights.

This made Zhu Yuanzhang's sadness dissipate a lot, and he said to Zhu Xiongying: "Okay, this matter is settled like this, and there is also the matter of your Uncle Mu Ying, how do you think it should be dealt with?"

Regarding this matter, the old man should have considered it in his mind.

Mu Ying in history was deeply loved by the old man, and was finally sent back to Beijing for burial
Thinking of this, Zhu Xiongying replied: "Uncle Muying is from our Zhu family, and he has made great contributions to our Ming Dynasty. My grandson thinks that Uncle Muying's coffin should be transported back to Tianfu and buried next to grandma and father. , they will be very happy!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Xiongying for a while, then smiled and said, "That's very good!"

"deliver an imperial order!"

Zhu Yuanzhang yelled out the door, and a daily life official entered and bowed down to listen.

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Yuanzhang said slowly:
"My son Mu Ying, following the precepts of the ancestors, heir to guard the southwest, was ordered to go west, unfortunately died of illness, the first ceremony was not over, Fu Ke worshiped, respectfully sent civil servants, respectfully presented the sacrifices, and sent my son's coffin back to Beijing!"

"Pursuing Muying as the King of Qianning, posthumously named Zhaojing, and enjoying the Taimiao!"
