Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 212 Take a breath, retreat!
Yuande is about to be exhausted, evildoers are born, and flesh and blood are in danger.

In the past, my father, the emperor, lived in this place, the agriculture was difficult, and he was wandering day and night. The natural disasters in Erer were prevalent, and his family members suffered: Huang Kao finally had four out of sixty, nine out of fifty imperial concubine died, Brother Meng died first, and the whole family was in mourning .

The husband's five virtues are reformed, the three righteousness are flourishing, the sages are controlled, and the sages are enlightened.Yuande fell into decline, and peril was recommended for attack.Meng Yuan was fierce and violent, which violated the heaven and earth; Yuan Shun was violent and violent, and took the people and gods out of order.The three lights sink again, and the seven temples are like dolls.The tripod has moved a few times, and knowledge is lost.

Once I changed my luck, I rebuilt the Central Plains, and I will continue to die with prosperity and destruction.

I have been in office for thirty years and two years, however, I am old and frail, unable to do state affairs.

Zhu Yunying, the grandson of the emperor, remembered Mingzhe, helped to brighten our royal family, and honored the world.The upper and lower gods of Geer are invincible, the sky is flat, and all nations are righteous.It should be ordered by God to be among the emperors.

Old Zhu picked up a pen at his desk and began to write the edict of abdication. He had no reluctance or entanglement. He had already made some preparations for many things.So at this time, he naturally seemed to be very smooth, and some things couldn't help him at all.

Zhu Xiongying didn't know that he was about to officially change his name, and he was still handling some government affairs in the court, which he thought was smooth.

After the next court, Zhu Xiongying was planning to leave.But suddenly he received an imperial decree, and the grandson of the emperor led the governors of the five armies, the six ministers, and others to the Hall of Wuying.

When we arrived at the Hall of Martial Arts, Lao Zhu lay on the couch, panting and raised his hand, "Everyone, please be at peace."

Seeing the old Zhu Chui's aging appearance, many civil and military officials felt sad, their sage was haggard due to illness.

When many civil and military emotions were full, Lao Zhu said with great effort, "Let's do the math, we will not go to court for two months, and we will not manage politics."

Zhuo Jing stood up immediately at this time, "Your Majesty, please take care of the dragon's body. His Highness the Emperor Taisun is quite virtuous in governing the court."

This time Yan Zhenzhi and Ren Hengtai also stood up, including Xu Huizu.At this time, we must persuade His Majesty to take care of his health. There is no need to worry about things in the court, and the emperor's grandson can handle them well.

There is no need to worry about breaking a taboo, which is not a taboo thing for Emperor Zhu.Praise his grandson a lot, and praise his grandson sincerely, Lao Zhu will only be happy, and will not feel that this is a threat from the grandson grabbing the class and seizing power.

Lao Zhu is quite satisfied with the performance of these civil and military ministers, but this is not enough.

After taking a breath, Lao Zhu said slowly, "We are thinking, we have not been in court for too long, and it is not good to delay the court affairs like this. The emperor's grandson is quite skilled in governing the court, and his character is lenient. We are thinking, Let's retreat, and the grandson will deal with all matters directly in the future."

Many people were stunned for a moment. In fact, this is the current model, that is, the emperor's grandson is dealing with major affairs in the court.

In fact, to be honest, it was the same way before.Many things are dealt with by the prince first, and after the prince has finished handling them, they are sent to the emperor for review. Everyone is familiar with this process.

Why is this 'retreat' now, what does it mean?
While the others were still in a daze, Zhu Xiongying knelt down directly, "Grandpa Huang, grandson is too young to take on such a big responsibility."

Old Zhu didn't think so, and said rather displeasedly, "At your age, we have also started to conquer the world. You have also married and had children, and you have been in charge of the government for some time. We want to rest, This community will be handed over to you."

Zhu Xiongying continued to 'cry and howl', seemingly sincerely, "Grandpa Huang expelled the Tartars and established a foundation. Grandpa loved the people like a son and protected all people. Grandpa Huang is naturally auspicious, and he will definitely get better!"

The grandpa and grandson sang together, and the important ministers who were a little drumming in their hearts suddenly realized it.Your Majesty's 'retirement' is not simply handing over the affairs of state to the emperor's grandson, but abdicating and becoming the Supreme Emperor!
At this moment, Ru Xun's grandson's team were all terrified. Some of their previous preparations were naturally for the grandson's enthronement.But the premise is there, that is, the emperor's grandson, they just think that the emperor is terminally ill, this is what they think is the normal process for the grandson to succeed to the throne.

It's the same for Xu Huizu and others. What they think about is the emperor's grandson's ascension to the throne. The premise is that the emperor dies, not the emperor's abdication!
The civil and military ministers don't know how to express their position. If they follow the emperor's will, who knows if His Majesty the Emperor will be angry, and will it cause His Majesty the Emperor to have a gap with the grandson?
After all, this is the throne. If you say something wrong at this time and alienate the family relationship of the Tian family, this in itself is a serious crime of copying the family and exterminating the family.If the grandson's position is shaken because of this, it may cause a chaos of seizing the heirloom, and he may be the sinner of Daming at that time.

But don't take this talk, who knows if His Majesty is sincere, who knows if the emperor feels that time is running out, so he thought of abdicating at this time?
The drama on the side of the Hall of Martial Heroes is that Zhu Xiongying kept begging, and these civil and military people were prostrate on the ground one by one, breaking out in cold sweat.

Seeing that it was almost the same, Lao Zhu waved his hands and said, "You all step back, we are also tired."

The civil and military soldiers who received the amnesty immediately left the Hall of Martial Heroes. This scene was really shocking. They still haven't recovered from it, and none of them seem to know how to deal with it next.

After all the civil and military personnel left, Lao Zhu turned over and sat up immediately, "You are too fake to cry, you don't have any sincerity when there is only thunder and no rain! Those old foxes have been in the court for a long time, so they may have seen some clues."

Zhu Xiongying arrived in front of the dragon couch in two or three steps, sat down and said, "I'm about to ascend the throne, so don't pretend. Those people are just pretending to ask three times and give up three times. Knowing that things are settled.”

Old Zhu was also happy, and said to Zhu Xiongying, "We abdicated, but we resigned immediately. You have taken over our country, not usurped our world. How can there be three requests and three concessions!"

Isn't the truth the same, so it is unnecessary to say that Zhu Xiongying is "modest".

In the previous signal to some courtiers, everyone basically agreed that His Majesty's physical condition was not very good, and it may have deteriorated to a certain extent.And seeing that the palace defense and city defense were all replaced by the emperor's henchmen, many people also felt that maybe they really had to consider some things, but this was also logical.

But it's different now. His Majesty the Emperor has vented his anger on some important ministers. He is going to abdicate on his own initiative.

Such a thing can't be hidden at all. I believe that when these important ministers leave the palace, the news will spread soon.

Old Zhu looked at Zhu Xiongying, and asked with a smile, "We want to abdicate as soon as possible, and it will be Chinese New Year at that time. Once you ascend the throne, you can change your Yuan in a few days. Have you thought about this year name?" "

Year number, this is a system established since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.In the past, many emperors would issue edicts to change the Yuan Dynasty every time there was auspiciousness, catastrophe, replacement of the throne, or the emperor's whim.

But Lao Zhu was different. He stipulated that the imperial court would not enshrine Zen, honor titles, or auspicious auspiciousness.This approach basically eliminated the possibility that later emperors would want to change the Yuan Dynasty, and basically determined that the Ming Dynasty would form a practice of using only one year name for a generation of monarchs.

Zhu Xiongying thought for a while, and said to Lao Zhu, "My grandson really has no idea. Jianwen must not be used. My grandson doesn't plan to be the emperor of Wen. Yongle is not good either, it seems a bit vulgar. Orthodox, this is the Scolding the grandson, Xuande, Zhengde, Tianshun, etc., the grandson thinks it is unnecessary. Or, should the grandpa give the grandson another idea?"

Old Zhu laughed out loud, and then said a little embarrassedly, "Why don't we watch 'Ying Shi'?"

Looking at the note that Lao Zhu handed over, it was obviously given by Lao Zhu after careful consideration.

Zhu Xiongying frowned slightly, this year name seemed a bit unremarkable and tacky.To be honest, there seems to be no such year name at all in the past dynasties.Lao Zhu's "Hongwu" is actually not the first creation, it has appeared three times in history.

Suddenly seeing Lao Zhu's expectant eyes, Zhu Xiongying suddenly understood.

"Okay, that's the year name. We inherited the land of Grandpa Huang, and we are also the grandson of Grandmother Huang, the son of Emperor Father!"

Old Zhu laughed out loud, very relieved, "We knew that you understood our thoughts! Others didn't know, and thought it was you who changed your name, so I couldn't bear it. I thought, it's still your imperial grandmother."

"When my grandson ascends the throne, my father will be Xingzong. At that time, no one will be able to prevent my grandson from going to build the tomb for my father." Zhu Xiongying muttered, also a little dissatisfied, "At that time, there will be no one on Zijin Mountain. There are three imperial tombs."

Old Zhu was dissatisfied, and said, "Sun Quan of Eastern Wu was also buried there, but we removed his stone unicorn."

By the way, there is indeed a tomb of Sun Quan on Zijin Mountain, which cannot be forgotten.Therefore, it is not very appropriate to say that there are three imperial tombs on Zijin Mountain, because it counts as four imperial tombs.

Old Zhu looked at Zhu Xiongying and reconfirmed, "Ying'er, you must be going to Beiping then. This Zijin Mountain is a good place, it gathers the aura of a king, and it is a dragon vein. But you can think clearly, you really want to be here in our Are you going to repair the mausoleum?"

"I said it a long time ago. After a hundred years, my grandson will definitely be in front of his parents, grandfather and grandmother." Zhu Xiongying laughed, and he knew what Lao Zhu really thought, "Grandpa, don't worry, and wait That is, when the time comes, our family will be reunited."

Old Zhu smiled cheerfully, the family spent too little time together when they were alive, and they stayed together for a long time after death.

Suddenly remembered something, and Lao Zhu said, "Otherwise, you will live to abdicate. When the time comes, keep an eye on Yin'er, and we will miss him too."

Well, Lao Zhu can't care about what the king of future generations looks like.But he looked at the grown-up grandson and great-grandson, and if they were always with him, that would be the true reunion that Lao Zhu believed.
