Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 295
Some people may be surprised that the emperor Zhu Yunying was talented in poetry, because many people know that this emperor is not interested in the Four Books and Five Classics, and like Emperor Hongwu, he has never lacked suppression and exclusion of literati.

Just looking at it now, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there have been very few people with real poetic talents, which is much worse than that of Tang and Song Dynasties.There are very few excellent works handed down from generation to generation. Could it be that starting from the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, there will be a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation? !
For such a phenomenon, Zhu Yunying felt that he had to be vigilant.

His officials and literati can compose poems in their spare time, but if they regard these as all, then it will definitely not work.If this gets off the ground, maybe there will be a chancellor of Qing Ci, who will write articles about worshiping gods and seeking immortals one by one.

It is more important to do business, which is also Zhu Yunying's request for officials.Not to mention that everyone is required to be diligent, and everyone is not required to be Bao Qingtian and do practical things, but Zhu Yunying will definitely not tolerate those officials who eat vegetarian meals.

The news that Zhu Yunying had a poetic talent had just spread, and suddenly it was completely dismissed by some news.

The messenger appeared in Yingtian Mansion again, this time bringing the news that Princess Changlan of Kaiping died.

Zhu Yunying was stunned, even though he had some bad premonitions before, but he still had some fluke mentality, hoping that his grandmother would be blessed with good fortune, and that this was just a false alarm.

But now, when the news came, it naturally broke his last luck.

Lao Zhu also got the news, sighed Lao Zhu found Zhu Yunying, "Your grandmother left as soon as she left, she is already at this age. Now her children and grandchildren are all promising, so she is at ease."

The reason should be like this, considering Chang Lan's age, she is not considered to have died prematurely now.The children and grandchildren are also promising, and Chang Lan can really feel at ease.

Lao Zhu continued to persuade, "The son is the Duke, the younger brother is also the Duke, and the grandson is either the emperor or the prince. I have never suffered in these years. How many people in the world can be as beautiful as her."

Zhu Yunying forced a smile, and said to Lao Zhu, "Grandfather, grandson naturally understands this truth. But it is our grandmother, and I still feel a little uncomfortable. Besides, we have felt sorry for my grandmother all these years."

"Ying'er, remember it for us, you are the emperor!" Old Zhu became serious, and said to Zhu Yunying, "You are the emperor, don't have such thoughts! The world, we want you to take care of the world, it is our old Zhu The country of the family! Don’t say it’s your grandmother, even your grandpa, you have to give up what’s right for you!”

Lonely and widowed, perhaps this is the fate that most emperors cannot escape in the end.

But Zhu Yunying is quite relieved, he doesn't need to think about these things now, he is not really a loner now.

Zhu Yunying nodded, and said to Old Zhu, "Grandmother has been running around all these years, and her status is not fake, but she has paid a lot just for us. We use the Chang family and the Lan family as rafts for many things."

Old Zhu nodded in approval when he heard the words. The Chang family has indeed been brought out as a demonstration again and again over the years, and the Chang family naturally did not have too many complaints.As long as it is beneficial to Zhu Yunying, they will execute it without hesitation.

"When the time comes, you will go see your grandmother off. She is also a hard-working person." Lao Zhu sighed and said, "Speaking of it, she still misses you all these years."

To say that Chang Lan's life is bitter, there is a certain reason for this, and she also has a lot of fate.

He lost his father in his early years and struggled to survive with his younger brother.After finally meeting a beloved man, Chang Yuchun died in his prime.The three sons are not bad, but the age of holding a grandson is relatively late.The only daughter became the princess, but she also died young.

There are some things that really can't be said, Zhu Yunying just sighed, "Grandpa Huang, it's not suitable for you to give her an order."

"That's natural, you don't need to talk about it." Old Zhu said naturally, "We still remember her, let's not say that he is Lao Chang's wife. Just because she is your grandmother and gave birth to your mother, we will miss her love."

This is definitely what Lao Zhu said in his heart. Lao Zhu has always been very strict with other people.But for his own family, Lao Zhu has always been very tolerant.Chang Lan's family can be counted as Lao Zhu's relatives, at least they are also in-laws.

When Tianzi's grandmother passed away, it was a major event, not to mention that this was Princess Kaiping and Liang Guogong Lanyu's direct sister, which obviously couldn't be sloppy.

Lao Zhu personally wrote the eulogy, which is also Chang Lan's posthumous honor and mourning.The Ministry of Rites also needs to come forward at this time, not only because Chang Lan is the grandmother of the current emperor, but also because she is the princess of Kaiping. Of course, the funeral must have certain regulations.

Zhu Yue came to the East Palace crying, grabbed Zhu Yunying's hand and began to cry, "Brother Huang, my grandmother is gone!"

"Well, don't cry too, I didn't have any regrets when my grandmother left." Touching Zhu Yue's head, Zhu Yunying said, "When the time comes, you will come with us, let's go see off my grandmother. Speaking of which, our grandson , there are many places where I feel sorry for my grandmother."

Zhu Yue shook his head, and said with certainty, "Grandmother likes Brother Huang the most, we all know that! She must be happy that Brother Huang can send off Grandmother. It's Brother Huang, can you go?"

A large part of the reason for asking this question is that Zhu Yunying is the king, while Chang Lan's is the minister.At this time, what everyone is talking about is the status of the monarch and his ministers, and the seniority of grandparents and grandchildren is second.

"You can go, the decision we made can't be changed by others." Zhu Yunying said with great certainty, "You and your sister-in-law will prepare later, and you will embroider a brocade quilt for grandma."

Zhu Yue naturally nodded quickly, Zhu Yunying didn't need to say more about these things, she naturally knew it well.

Grandmother is most concerned about Zhu Yunying, but the one she loves the most is Zhu Yunxie.Although it seemed that Zhu Xi and Zhu Yue seldom took care of Zhu Xi and Zhu Yue because of not being able to enter the palace, in fact Chang Lan's treatment of them was not bad.

Xu Miaoqing also took the initiative to speak at this time, and said, "Your Majesty, the concubines know that my grandmother believes in the faith, and the concubines want to enshrine the scriptures and mantras in handwritten scriptures to my grandmother."

Zhu Yunying nodded, which is what it should be.As Zhu Yunying's wife and concubine, Xu Miaoqing and the others obviously had no way to be idle. Naturally, they also needed to do it themselves at this time, to show their filial piety and at the same time express their attitude.

This is not just about Zhu Yunying alone, Zhu Yunying's wives and concubines naturally cannot be idle, and they all need to perform well at this time.

There are some things that Zhu Yunying doesn't need to say more, what should be done, many people naturally know what to do at this time, and everyone knows how to behave.

Chang Lan's coffin is still slowly returning to Yingtian Mansion, and those who came to report the funeral also brought some Zhu Yunxie's handwriting, and Zhu Yunying naturally knew that Chang Lan wanted the funeral to be simple.

Zhu Yunying agreed in principle, and would not hold a grand funeral.But there are some things that he should do, because he knows that the reason why his grandmother confessed so much is because he doesn't want his grandson to be difficult to do.

While Zhu Yunying was busy preparing something, the army returning from the northern battlefield was slowly returning to the division.

Xu Yingxu, who was recovering from his injuries in Beiping Mansion, would not be sloppy, he had naturally gone to mourn the funeral in person.Regardless of the relationship between the Xu family and the Chang family, for the sake of the emperor, queen or prince, he should do something.

At this moment, several of his followers rushed towards the northern battlefield at full speed, and the imperial army returned to the court.Normally, except for a very small number of meritorious ministers who will be lucky enough to go to Yingtian Mansion to receive the reward from His Majesty the Emperor, other soldiers and generals need to return to their respective guards.

Sapphire, who had returned from victory, was full of ambition at the moment, and he was extremely proud.And Xu Huizu frowned a little, he felt that his second brother was a little reckless, and shouldn't send someone over at this time.

But after hearing the report, he suddenly became serious, and walked towards Lan Yu's camp without hesitation, "Mr. Liang, Mrs. Tai is gone."

Lan Yu was stunned for a moment, and Lan Yu, who was already secretly drinking, was stunned, "Mrs. Tai? Which Mrs. Tai?"

Xu Huizu's expression was serious, and he just said, "Duke Liang, my condolences."

The wine glass in her hand fell suddenly, and Lan Yu burst into tears, "Sister! Sister is gone?! We don't believe it!"

Sapphire, who was crying, couldn't care about anything else at this time, maybe it was the impulse after drinking, or maybe it was really heartbroken.He rushed out of the large tent of the Chinese army, ignoring other things at all, he led his horse and ran away with a few guards who hurried over.

Xu Huizu was dumbfounded and stunned. He had heard that Lanyu would ignore everything once he was on the top, and now he has fully seen it.

Fu Youde came in a hurry and said after hearing the news, "Don't go chasing after him, let's manage the army well. Duke Liang was raised by Mrs. Tai when he was young."

Lan Yu was brought up under Chang Lan's care. It is not an exaggeration to say that Chang Lan is Lan Yu's sister and sister.

It's just that at this time, Fu Youde and Xu Huizu also knew that they didn't send people to chase back Lan Yu, it was because they didn't have the confidence to chase Lan Yu back.But at this time, it is still necessary to send someone to Yingtianfu to report.

What Zhu Yunying should do is naturally continue to deal with the government affairs. What he needs to do is to govern the country well.

His grandmother passed away, but he couldn't go to mourn in person now.They can only fast in Yingtianfu's imperial palace, and just send people to pay their respects, so that people can pay attention to the rules of Chang Lan's coffin.

Zhu Yunxi came back, and when she saw Zhu Yunying, she just lowered her head and did not speak, crying silently.

Zhu Yunying touched Zhu Yunxi's head and said, "Grandmother is definitely not happy to see you like this. You should eat and drink. As long as you are happy, grandma will be happy. Be obedient and don't be sad."

Zhu Yunxi nodded, and whispered, "We are better now."

Yes, when his grandmother just passed away, Zhu Yunxi was extremely uncomfortable and sad.But time is the best medicine.
