Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 41

Whether it is choosing a concubine for the emperor's grandson, or moving the capital in the future, etc., this is not a matter of overnight.

There are already some clear signals about many things, and some of the most powerful people in Ming Dynasty already know some definite news.Although many civil and military officials and dignitaries prefer the prosperous Yingtian Mansion, but facing the founding emperor, some of these people's views and ideas don't seem to be that important.

Lao Zhu was in a good mood, took the wine poured by Zhu Xiongying, and said, "Biao'er, take Ying'er back to the imperial mausoleum to worship your ancestors in a few days."

Zhu Xiongying immediately understood that this did not mean that Lao Zhu was worried that the crown prince would have too much power.But the next move to the capital is bound to be strongly opposed by some people.Lao Zhu is going to come forward in person and use iron and blood methods to suppress the voice of opposition.

Zhu Biao naturally understood this, and said, "Civil and military officials still prefer Tianfu, and there are many objections. But moving the capital is imperative, and these people can't stop it!"

Both Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao were not satisfied with the fact that the southern capital was built in a peaceful corner.

Zhu and Zhu Biao were dissatisfied with the fact that Huaixi Xungui, the civil official group in eastern Zhejiang were relatively powerful, Liaodong was newly restored, and the blood of the Han family in the north was weak.Relocation is necessary. If there is no way to move the capital smoothly, then force it.

Pointing to Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Biao said, "Father, what do you think about Yinger's name change?"

Old Zhu was silent for a moment, then said, "We don't want Yinger to change his name, but the name Yinger is too common. If he becomes the throne, it will be inconvenient for the common people in the future."

Zhu Xiongying said with a smile, "You can't talk about heroes and heroes. The Daxiong Palace where the emperor's grandfather used to chant scriptures has to be renamed."

Old Zhu scolded with a smile, "We are not great monks, we are just practicing monks. We just sweep the floor, offer incense, beat bells and drums, cook food and wash clothes, and are reprimanded by the old monk. If we often go to the Daxiong Palace to chant scriptures, you will not be able to be an emperor." grandson!"

Zhu Biao remembered one more thing and asked, "Father, if Ying'er changes her name, should her peers change their names in the future?"

This is the character generation. According to the emperor's ancestral training, the character generations of Lao Zhu's descendants are all stipulated.In fact, Zhu Biao's generation is just next to a wooden character, but from Zhu Xiongying's generation, everyone except Zhu Xiongying has a generation of characters.

In Zhu Biao's lineage, all his children are "Yun".

And what Zhu Biao meant was that according to the ancient etiquette, once Zhu Xiongying ascended the throne, his peers would definitely not be able to use the word 'Yun'.

After all, he was born as a commoner, and Lao Zhu broke the rules a lot. "The other children will not change their names, and the emperor's peers will not change their names. We thought about this at the beginning. Bloodlines and seniority are clear."

Isn't that right, according to Lao Zhu's regulations in Huangming's ancestors' precepts, as long as the descendants follow the rules.You can clearly know which lineage this royal family belongs to, and which generation this royal family belongs to, clearly and clearly.

Zhu Xiongying said at this time, "From now on, I will be Zhu Yunying?"

Old Zhu frowned suddenly, thought for a while and said, "It's better to be Zhu Yunying. We've thought about it in your father's generation, and when we get to you, we will behave accordingly. Ying'er, your future heirs must follow the rules. You The name, but many people complain."

Zhu Xiongying was not afraid, and said bluntly, "That is the emperor's grandpa's Huangming ancestral precepts. Besides, this name was given by the emperor's grandfather. I can't blame me for this matter. This is the matter of the emperor's grandfather."

Old Zhu also laughed, and said, "We will change the name when our Yinger canonize the crown prince. I guess it will take a year or two."

Zhu Biao also knew it well, the main reason was that there were many things to do, and it was not possible to change the dynasty immediately.Many things also need to be prepared immediately, but even if there is a clear plan and can be implemented, there is no way to achieve it all at once, and it will take some time.

For example, the ancestor worship this time really meant to let Zhu Biao leave Yingtian Mansion and the center of power.This is naturally for Lao Zhu's drastic 'killing', and it really counts as killing people.

When Lao Zhu came forward to kill people, Zhu Biao was naturally a good man. Lao Zhu attached great importance to Zhu Biao's reputation and prestige, and he didn't want his prince to have a bad reputation.

As for Zhu Biao, he has no objection to standing aside at this time. He and his father have a good understanding, and many things are indeed not as complicated as they intend to say. They are just bullying 'outsiders' together.

Zhu Xiongying couldn't hold back, but asked, "Grandpa, whose grandson's daughter-in-law belongs to?"

"Xu Da's girl!" Old Zhu laughed, looking like he was making a lot of money, "We didn't expect that, when Tiande sees us in the future, we can't call him superior, we can't call us big brother, we have to call us Uncle uncle!"

Zhu Biao couldn't help laughing, and also thought it was funny, "Father, I didn't expect to be the same generation as King Zhongshan. I guess it's because the Xu family is feeling awkward."

"They are happy!" Old Zhu said with great care and certainty, "Grand Concubine! They must know what we are thinking, and know that their second daughter will be the mother of the world in the future! It is a good thing for them to be a generation shorter! "

If the second girl wants to become the grandson concubine, the eldest girl will have to die.

This is cruel politics, although after Lao Zhu ascended the throne, many things did not completely follow the ancient etiquette.However, Lao Zhu still cares about some etiquette.It doesn't matter even if there is a little problem, Lao Zhu can definitely solve the obstacle of 'incompatibility with etiquette'.

Zhu Xiongying was silent, and he seemed unable to stop such a thing.In this age, many things are like this.

As for whether fourth uncle Zhu Di would resent it, or whether the Xu family would complain about it, Zhu Xiongying didn't care, and there was no need to care.

It is estimated that the Xu family may also be happy at this time. They can clearly distinguish the weight of the grandson concubine and the princess.And according to Lao Zhu's thinking, if he died, most of the concubines in the harem would be buried, at least those without heirs would be buried.

By that time, even Xun Jiu's daughter would not be able to escape the fate of being buried.

Therefore, for the sake of the inheritance of the old Zhu's family and for the rightful entry of the grandson concubine, Xu Da's eldest daughter passed away as the concubine of Yan, and old Zhu felt at ease.Some matters of the royal family are no longer just family affairs, they are also world affairs.

Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao teamed up again to drive Zhu Xiongying away, and they were discussing something again.

Although there is no need to avoid Zhu Xiongying for most things, no matter whether it is Lao Zhu or Zhu Biao, there are some things that Zhu Xiongying does not want to get in touch with prematurely, and Zhu Xiongying must be driven away.

As soon as Zhu Xiongying returned to the East Palace, Zhu Xi ran over, "Brother Huang, what should I do with Yue'er's marriage?"

"Grandfather and father are the masters, what do you want me for?" Zhu Xiongying said angrily, "Go to them, no, no."

Zhu Xiongying suddenly became agitated, and looked at Zhu Xi suspiciously, "Which kid do you like?!"

"What are you thinking about!" Zhu Xi said angrily, "Brother Emperor, I am only one year younger than you, you are not in a hurry to get married, but Yue'er and I can't get married, if we don't say anything, we will become old girls Already!"

Zhu Xiongying thought about it carefully, and it was also true that in ancient times it was indeed early marriage.Lao Zhu also stipulated at the beginning of the founding of the country, "Men are sixteen years old, and women are over fourteen years old, and they are allowed to marry."

This is the legal age for marriage, but in this day and age, many women get married when they are twelve or thirteen.

Zhu Xiongying thought for a while, and then said, "Grandfather and father will consider these things, but don't worry. You will get married when you are sixteen."

Refer to the marriage first, but it will only take a year or two.Because if it continues to drag on, it may not be a good thing.After all, even if Zhu Xiongying thinks that it is not too early for a woman to get married in her twenties, but the limitations of the times lie in this, not to mention the phenomenon of "imperial power does not go to the countryside" nowadays, the traditional concept is very marketable.

Seeing that Zhu Xi was about to leave, Zhu Xiongying said, "Let Yun Xuan and Yun Xi come over, I want to test their studies."

Zhu Yunxuan and Zhu Yunxie came obediently. The two brothers were disciplined by the elder brother Zhu Xiongying, which seems to be a matter of course in this era.

Zhu Xiongying glanced at Zhu Yunqi, then said, "You're too weak, let someone take you to ride a horse tomorrow."

Zhu Yunqi seemed to have an opinion, Zhu Xiongying noticed it, and said angrily, "What are the six arts of a gentleman?"

Zhu Yunqi immediately replied like a fluent, "The son of the country uses Tao. It is the six arts of teaching: one is called five rituals, the other is called six music, the third is called five shooting, the fourth is called five control, the fifth is called six books, and the sixth is called nine numbers."

"I don't ask you to kill the enemy to defend the country, but at least you must keep fit." Zhu Xiongying said angrily, "I will ask someone to take you to perform martial arts for half an hour every day."

The little Confucian scholar Zhu Yunqi who didn't like exercising or sweating immediately said, "Mother Concubine."

Zhu Xiongying smiled, and immediately asked, "Concubine Mother? Huh?"

Zhu Yunqi immediately lowered his head and did not dare to speak. According to etiquette, his mother could only be the late Crown Princess Chang.

Zhu Xiongying took the tea brought by Wang Chengen and said calmly, "Yun Wen, go back and talk to your mother. If you don't want me to discipline you, I don't bother to discipline you! You better remember your duty and know your identity! Remember it , I am your elder brother!"
