Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 208
Ru Yu and the others are now nervous, worried, and somewhat excited.

These people can be regarded as emerging under the current emperor, and today's emperor also has the grace of knowing them.But some of them have been labeled a long time ago, which is well known to almost everyone.

Even if all of them are ministers or servants, etc., they are all important officials of the court, but these people also think that they are the real team members of the grandson, and their official careers are actually closely bound with the grandson. This is also beyond doubt.

It has been a matter of the past two years to be reused in the hands of today's princes. In the past, it was only being honed continuously, in order to make the grandsons easy to use, and for the grandsons to control the court after taking over.These people actually knew in their hearts that if they wanted to become real important ministers, they really needed to wait until the grandson took the position, so that they could show their ambitions.

Now that the emperor is seriously ill again, these people have to let their imagination run wild and have to think more about things.

After all, today is different from the past, and it seems that the emperor's grandson may ascend the throne at any time.It's just that even if many things seem logical to everyone, it will inevitably make people worry.

"Nowadays, there are many princes and county kings in Yingtian Mansion. I think all my colleagues know that quite a few of them are dissatisfied with His Royal Highness's succession to the crown prince." Lian Zining was worried, and said to several people in the hall, " I'm afraid that these few people will cause trouble at that time!"

Lian Zining's worry was not unreasonable. When Lao Zhu was here, naturally there were no voices of opposition inside or outside the court, and Lao Zhu's voice could completely silence all voices of opposition.

But once Lao Zhu is gone, there may be some voices, which is not impossible.

After all, it is the throne, and ordinary people obviously cannot resist the temptation of the throne.What's more, even if everyone understands, it is very difficult for those princes to do anything wrong. After all, the power in the hands of the emperor's grandson is huge enough. Even if those princes want to make trouble, it is unlikely that they will be too big movement.

It's just that once those people make trouble, it's one thing if they can't make things happen. The main reason is that once those people make trouble, they will be disgusting.At that time, there will inevitably be some caring people fueling the flames, saying that the emperor's grandson's position is not right.Or if Zhu Xiongying disposes of those princes, someone will say again that the emperor's grandson is ruthless to the clan and so on.

It really doesn't necessarily mean that something has to be caused by trouble to be considered a success, and it is enough to make people speechless and heartbroken if it is disgusting.

Yan Zhenzhi was also worried, so he suggested. "Everyone, Your Highness has always been lenient, and even more generous to the clan. Since we eat the king's salary, we must share the king's worries. Whether we should go to the court to ask for orders, the prince is in the capital is not a good idea."

This can be regarded as a relatively common point of view. Many people think that it is not a good thing for the princes to stay in the capital. These people are likely to be unstable factors in the transfer of power. Naturally, they need to be driven to the fief. away from the center of power.

Zhuo Jing immediately objected, saying, "Ever since the first prince, he has disapproved of feudal feudalism and public construction. In recent years, the princes of my dynasty have been holding fiefdoms far away. If you let the princes leave Beijing at this moment, it may be a hidden danger. At that time, we have to Take back the fief."

This made everyone fall into silence. In the early days of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, several princes were sealed, and everyone knew that the old Zhu family had a weak foundation, so these princes were needed to contribute.However, the court has been stable these years, and it may not be a good thing for the princes to distribute the titles.

It's not easy to get it back after it's been sealed off.Just look at King Qin, King Jin, and King Zhou. They all know that they are all happy and happy in the fiefdom.It is not easy to take back the fief, and these princes will strongly oppose it at that time, after all, they have tasted the joy of the emperor.

Letting the princes stay in Beijing naturally has some advantages.Naturally, there are certain disadvantages in letting the princes become vassals. It depends on how the superiors who control the imperial power make their choices.

The people under Zhu Xiongying were nervous. They hoped that Zhu Xiongying could ascend the throne smoothly, and they also hoped to reduce some troubles.Otherwise, it would not be perfect for these people, and it would make them feel somewhat regretful.

As for Zhu Xiongying at this time, he just looked at his daughter for a while, and then couldn't stay any longer.After all, it's early winter, and it's not good for a child to see the wind, especially a newborn baby.

Putting on his cloak, Zhu Xiongying walked towards the Qianqing Palace, this time he did not bring the little guy Zhu Wenyin with him.

Seeing Zhu Xiongying approaching, Shuangquan immediately ran to report, "My lord, His Royal Highness is here."

Lao Zhu turned over and asked, "Is the grandson alone?"

Shuangquan naturally understood, and hurriedly said, "It's just His Highness."

"That's it." Old Zhu coughed twice and said, "Have someone set up some screens outside the hall, don't let the grandson catch cold. Let the grandson talk to us outside the hall, everyone in this room It's sickness."

Shuangquan naturally agreed quickly, and the maids and eunuchs in Qianqing Palace immediately got busy.

It's just that Zhu Xiongying was not very happy. Looking at the closed door of the palace, he patted on the door, "Grandpa Huang, grandson didn't bring Yin'er here. Grandson is already such a big man, what are you afraid of?"

Old Zhu's voice came from the hall, "Your father passed away because of the wind and cold, so you are talking to us outside the hall."

As soon as Lao Zhu finished speaking, Zhu Xiongying pushed open the hall door amidst the commotion.Even if those people outside the palace wanted to stop Zhu Xiongying, they really couldn't do anything about it, and they really didn't dare to stop them.

Seeing Zhu Xiongying enter the hall, Lao Zhu was a little angry, and then turned his back to Zhu Xiongying, obviously not wanting to talk to this disobedient grandson.

Zhu Xiongying didn't care too much, and sat down on the dragon couch, reached out and touched Lao Zhu's forehead, "It's okay, the fever has subsided a bit."

Old Zhu unhappily stretched out his hand to push away Zhu Xiongying's paw, a little annoyed, "I told you, I'm sick! This cold is not a trivial matter. There is Yin'er in the East Palace, and you just added a daughter. You Let’s talk about it yourself, your body is precious, but our great-grandson is not?! You were quite sensible when you were young, but you’re getting messy when you grow up!”

Zhu Xiongying didn't care, and said with a smile, "The grandson has been resting in Qianqing Palace for two days, and he hasn't rested here for a long time. I just saw my daughter today, and she looks ugly. That younger sister is like a monkey."

Lao Zhu was also happy, and he was relieved, "When the child grows up, come and show us! That little bastard Yin'er, I guess it is not a fuel-efficient lamp when he grows up, and he will make a fuss. A few days ago we Going to see the garden with him, he likes those rare and exotic animals that pay tribute."

"That's right, there are not many children who don't like those." Zhu Xiongying smiled, and said to Lao Zhu, "Speaking of it, Yin'er is better than grandson. It's troublesome, but it's not arrogant. I'm afraid that I will teach this child badly."

This made Lao Zhu unhappy. He sat up and criticized Zhu Xiongying, "Our old Zhu's family is not arrogant! We grew up in bitter water. When your father was born, we were handsome. No more. When we had you, our Daming was established and stable, and you were not arrogant! None of these people are arrogant, why should we be arrogant?"

Zhu Xiongying didn't accept this, and said to Lao Zhu, "Grandson thinks he should give his daughter a name, and is going to come to ask Grandpa Huang for advice?"

Lao Zhu blurted out, already prepared, "You have always wanted a girl, and this is your wish. We think of you as a girl, and I call you Ruyi! Let me tell you, if you like a girl, you like a girl , don’t be biased. Our Yin’er is the eldest son and the foundation of our Daming. Make a Princess Taiping and see how we deal with you!”

The sick old Zhu also has a lot of troubles now, he is worried about repeating Li Tang's mistakes, worried about those restless princesses who have great power in the court, this is an inoculation for Zhu Xiongying in advance.

In fact, speaking of it, Lao Zhu is relatively ordinary to his daughters, even the daughters of two direct relatives.In the final analysis, Lao Zhu is an old feudalist, his son belongs to his own family, and his daughter belongs to someone else's family. He has always been very clear about this account.

Zhu Xiongying laughed and said, "This grandson naturally knows it well. Don't say that these princesses have interfered with the court, not even the harem side. The relatives, whether it is the Xu family or the Chang family, will not Let them do politics. After a few years, those who should retire will also retire."

Old Zhu nodded, and he was happy, "If we see Tiande in the future, we can give him an explanation. We are not mean to him, and his family Miaoqing is the queen of our Daming. Boren left early, no I saw your mother give birth to you."

Boren, this is Chang Yuchun's character.

Lao Zhu's two most powerful assistants who fought the world in the past are now closely tied to the royal family, much closer than ordinary nobles.There is no doubt that the honorable group they represent must also be bound to the royal family.

"In the future, Yin'er's marriage should also be chosen in the honorable family." Zhu Xiongying said to Lao Zhu, "It's just that there will be no more dignified in the future. My father and I will be enough for two generations, otherwise we won't bother." Great."

Lao Zhu also thought so, the emperor's official wife in the future must still be selected from the honored family, but it is not suitable for the top honors.As for the civil servants, there is no need to worry, the position of side concubine has always been reserved for the Wenchen Group.

Old Zhu coughed a few times, and said to Zhu Xiongying, "We were pretending to be sick, but now we are really sick. Thinking about it now, it's fortunate that you have grown up and become sensible, otherwise we would have to hold on. going to kill."

When Lao Zhu said this, he was definitely not joking. Zhu Xiongying knew that this was what Lao Zhu really thought. This could be regarded as Lao Zhu's most helpless choice.
