Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 217 Are you going to be emperor? !
The title Taishanghuang is not unfamiliar. Liu Taigong, the father of Liu Bang, is the only person in Chinese history who has never been an emperor, but was revered as the Taishanghuang.The reason is that his son is the emperor and the first person to be honored as the Supreme Emperor while alive.

In history, there is also Li Yuan who is more famous as the Supreme Emperor, but it is hard to say whether Li Yuan voluntarily abdicated or something else.After all, his son, King Qin, had a change in the Xuanwu Gate, and things became complicated.

Song Huizong Zhao Ji of the Song Dynasty was also the Supreme Emperor, but it was because the Jin soldiers went south for the first time, and he passed on the throne.It is rumored that he regretted his abdication and wanted to restore these.As a result, the second time Jinbing went south, he and his son Qinzong were all captured, and the royal family was almost wiped out.

The shame of Jingkang and the name of the emperor can be regarded as breaking the lower limit of the emperor.

Zhu Xiongying feels that his history is not particularly good, but he can't let some unworthy descendants mess around.It still seems possible now, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty has no possibility to refresh the lower limit for the time being.It's better not to show up like the Great Ming God of War.

It seems that Lao Zhu is wholeheartedly thinking about becoming the Supreme Emperor. This is also seen by many courtiers, and Lao Zhu is not hiding his thoughts now.As for the emperor's grandson Zhu Xiongying, I don't know when he suddenly changed his name.

Now the name of the emperor's grandson has been officially changed to Zhu Yunying, which can be regarded as a clear signal that he is preparing for his enthronement.

So many people are saying that Wei Guogong Xu Huizu must be one of the first people to know these things, and he changed from Xu Yungong to Xu Huizu early in order to avoid taboos.This is not just a taboo, it can also be regarded as expressing some of my own feelings.

In the early morning, Lao Zhu looked at the civil and military officials in the hall, as well as some princes, "I am old and frail, and now I am unable to manage state affairs. The empress died early, and the prince also died of illness. I am exhausted. Fortunately, the grandson has grown up and is quite heroic. I thought about it, so I abdicated, so I can be honored for a few years."

Zhu Yunying immediately knelt down, at this time, everything he said was wrong, it would be better not to say it, the face project that should be done is still to be done.

Seeing that the civil and military officials in the hall were silent, Lao Zhu frowned and continued to ask, "Are you all dumb? How about what we're talking about?"

Ren Hengtai gritted his teeth, stood up and said, "The major affairs of the country are all dictatorial by His Majesty's Sacred Heart. His Highness the Emperor Taisun is wise and wise, and has watched politics for several years, my minister"

Old Zhu, who was seated on the dragon chair, was upset, and corrected him, "Our great-grandson is not an observer of politics. He has been in charge of the court for several years, and he handles all these major affairs in the court! Has our great-grandson been out of office for so many years? Something went wrong?"

Zhu Yunying's heart is warm, Lao Zhu is supporting him without reservation!

Ren Hengtai, who was not considered a loyal member of Taisun's team, immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"

Seeing that someone finally took the lead, many civil and military officials also stood up at this time.All of them are eager to express their opinions. They can see that the current day is not fishing for law enforcement, but really wants to pass the throne. Naturally, at this time, they need to hurry up and express their intentions, so that His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness can see them loyalty.

And these people are basically not Lao Zhu's confidantes, nor are they part of the grandson's team, so naturally they are more eager to express themselves.

Seeing that most of the people stood up, people like Xu Huizu and Ru Xun followed suit.Their identities are special and it is not easy to rush to stand in line, but everyone knows the position of these people.Now it's no problem to stand up with the crowd, and it also makes Lao Zhu's proposal to abdicate seem to be more recognized, and there is a huge momentum for a while.

Amid the praises of His Majesty's wisdom and integrity, Lao Zhu felt that the general situation was settled.Even his sons didn't dare to raise any objections at this time, and they all agreed obediently.

At this time, Lao Zhu also remembered something, and said, "We have worked as farmers in our hometown since we were young, and worked as handymen in the temple for several years. All these years, we think we are in good health. It's just that when we get old, if we say that our energy is not good The energy is exhausted. The king of future generations will abdicate at the age of seventy."

At this moment, many civil and military ministers were stunned. Although Emperor Zhu did not play cards according to common sense, it was not once or twice, but this time it seemed that Lao Zhu had set some great rules.

Zhu Yunying, who had been silent until now, suddenly came back to life, and hurriedly said, "Grandpa Huang established the world in troubled times and established the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. Naturally, future generations will not dare to forget the great achievements of Grandpa Huang!"

Now the tone has been set, no matter how powerful the future generations are, they cannot surpass Lao Zhu.

It's not about the number of years in office, but the age in office must not exceed 70 years old.Considering Lao Zhu's current age, it is estimated that the king of future generations will basically be 68 or 69, and he will consider abdication.

Otherwise, it is disrespectful, or it is against the ancestral system, etc. This is also a headache for the emperor, and it is also a restriction for them.

Hearing what Zhu Yunying said, even if some people had thoughts in their hearts, they hurriedly stood up to express their opinions at this time.In fact, Zhu Yunying said so, and everyone didn't think there was any problem.After all, in such an era, many people do regard filial piety as an important basis for viewing character.

Filial piety, this is also one of the important cores of Confucianism and Chinese civilization. Even the emperor cannot bear this big hat.

The grandparents and grandson who sang and harmonized with each other cooperated tacitly, which can be regarded as the conclusion of some things.It is basically impossible for the emperor of Ming Dynasty to continue to sit on the dragon chair in his seventies.Even if he is reluctant to part with power, he will give up the throne when he reaches the age.

As for how to operate after giving up the throne, that is another matter.It's not that the Supreme Emperor can only be left behind, it's normal for the Supreme Emperor to hold great power.Of course, according to some historical rules, there are relatively few emperors who can live to 70 years old, so if you want to be the Supreme Emperor, you also need to ensure a long life.

The general trend has been set, and it seems that there will indeed be no changes.Of course, at the beginning, Zhu Yunying didn't believe that there were any variables.

After all, what Lao Zhu decides, most people don't have the ability to make Lao Zhu change his mind.What's more, Zhu Yunying also has enough power in his hands, and he can also ensure that many things will not be out of control.

It's just some things like this, no matter how careful you are, there is no harm in being serious.

Back in the East Palace, Zhu Yunying also saw the East Palace beaming with joy.It seems that there are really no secrets in the palace, and many things spread in an instant.Don't say that the masters know about it, the servants also know about these things.

Seeing Lian Qiongqiong holding Zhu Ruyi, Zhu Yunying couldn't help laughing, "Come, let me see our eldest princess."

This time Lian Qiongqiong smiled even more happily, and Li Shi and the others couldn't help being happier.Once Zhu Yunying ascends the throne, their rank will naturally rise accordingly, not to mention that they are also looking forward to giving birth to Zhu Yunying's offspring, and their status will rise when the time comes, and mothers will be more expensive than their children.

Comparing Xu Miaoqing's status and grabbing Zhu Wenyin's position is unthinkable.But giving birth to princes and princesses is not bad.

Zhu Ruyi didn't give face very much, Zhu Yunying was crying as soon as she hugged her, and she didn't seem to be very dependent on her father.

Xu Miaoqing took Zhu Ruyi with a smile, and after coaxing her, she said, "Your Highness should stay with Ruyi, the child is born."

This made Zhu Yunying not quite agree with it, he analyzed, "How can I recognize the birth at this age? Let's see, it's this child"

Still can't talk nonsense, after all, Zhu Yunying has a special status.If this said something, Lian Qiongqiong would think more, and the subordinates might also think more.At that time, Zhu Yunying must not be very happy.

He will soon be the emperor who can determine life and death with one word, and he has the constitution of heaven in his mouth.When this sentence is said, many people may think too much.Under such circumstances, Zhu Yunying felt that it was better not to say anything, especially when she was joking with a smile, but maybe someone would feel uneasy, and that was not a good thing.

The East Palace is also full of joy now, mainly because everyone knows that some major events have been finalized, and they all know the things above the court.Not to mention the honor and honor, the main reason is that these people share weal and woe with Zhu Yunying.

Zhu Yunying is about to ascend the throne, so the identities of these people will naturally change, and the benefits of these people are quite a lot.

When the East Palace was full of joy, many people inside and outside the palace also knew the news.Although the vast majority of people would not be surprised that the emperor's grandson succeeded to the throne, they absolutely did not expect such a pattern.

Zhu Yunying didn't care so much, she just said to Wang Chengen, "Keep an eye on it for the past few days, the people below should stop going crazy."

Hearing what Zhu Yunying said, Wang Chengen naturally agreed quickly.In fact, this matter was not only confessed by Zhu Yunying, but also by Xu Miaoqing. At this time, the East Palace needs to keep a low profile, and it should not be too ostentatious.

As if remembering something, Zhu Yunying said, "I'll take a leave of absence from Grandpa Huang in a while, and I won't go to the court for a few days. You will serve there, and you will bring back all the notes."

After all, it is still a superficial project, but such some face-saving projects still need to be done well.Obviously Zhu Yunying should do this, although everyone knows that he is about to ascend the throne, but the superficial avoidance still needs to be avoided.

It's better to stay in the East Palace for the past few days. The government affairs still need to be dealt with, that is, not to go to the court, and not to meet foreign ministers.

Hearing that Wang Chengen came to help Zhu Yunying ask for leave, Lao Zhu couldn't help being happy.He is not surprised by this matter, and it is necessary to avoid suspicion, so everyone should act in a tacit understanding.

Zhu Yunxi came back in a hurry, and only ran away for two months, and he was called back in advance before he arrived in Shu, and he would not have gone out if he had known.This, traveling all the way to the mountains and rivers is not enough.

Immediately went straight to the East Palace, seeing Zhu Yunying, Zhu Yunxi was very excited, "Brother, brother, you are going to be the emperor?!"
