Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 637
What kind of turmoil is going on inside and outside the palace, or what many people are thinking, it doesn't seem to have much to do with Zhu Yunying, he is used to being "high above", and often he doesn't necessarily notice some people feelings.

As for the others, there is no way to be so calm now. Naturally, it is necessary to inquire about some news from many sources.As long as you know some information, you can deal with some things calmly, and you won't be caught off guard.

It's normal for people's hearts to fluctuate at this time, and many people can't help but think too much at this time.

Especially before the early court, many people were talking in low voices. They sensed the weird atmosphere and realized that something might happen.Now there are rumors that His Majesty may be seriously ill.

Although Lian Zining was also worried, he still did his duty, "Supervise the censor, and record the words and deeds of your lords."

Many people didn't care much about Lian Zining's words, because once something major happened, it would be nothing at all.

However, there are also people who are more sensitive. If they are caught at this time, there may be some minor troubles. It is better to be cautious in words and deeds.

When the static whip sounded, all civil and military officials lined up and set off towards Fengtian Temple according to the different rules of civil and military affairs.

In fact, many people are also nervous. If His Majesty appeared in the early court today, many speculations would naturally be quelled.Of course, if His Majesty appears in the court, everyone can also observe His Majesty's complexion and make some judgments.

As for the fact that His Majesty did not appear in the court, or if the early court could not continue, it would mean that the situation was more serious.The founder of the country personally guarded the imperial city, which can explain many things.

When the civil and military officials stood in Fengtian Hall and looked eagerly at the imperial steps, Wang Chengen stood on the imperial steps with a blank face, which made many people feel a little more at ease. It seemed that the morning court could continue.

Just when everyone felt a little more at ease, a young man suddenly appeared and walked directly to the imperial steps. The young man standing on top of Dan Bi stood facing all the civil and military officials, with a blank expression on his face.

The next moment, a burly old man with white hair appeared and walked slowly towards the dragon chair.

Although it was only a short distance of a few meters, even if the civil and military officials did not dare to whisper, they would still wink at each other, and each of them seemed to feel nervous and worried.

After the old Zhu sat down, little Zhu turned to the old Zhu and said, "Your Majesty the great-grandfather, can you start the dynasty?"

After Lao Zhu nodded, Xiao Xiao Zhu slowly walked down the imperial steps, and naturally stood first on the left side of the officials. No one dared to compete with Xiao Xiao Zhu for this position.

Little Zhu led the civil and military officials to kneel down and kowtow three times, which is naturally a rule.

Old Zhu looked very calm, and after all the officials got up, he said, "The emperor is quite tired from working hard, and I will let him rest today. Dear friends, I see that you look different, do you think I should not be in charge of the court? "

At this moment, all civil and military officials knelt down in unison, "I dare not wait!"

Although Emperor Hongwu seems to be far away from the center in recent years, his influence in the court is constantly decreasing.But everyone knew that when Emperor Hongwu appeared in the court, everyone needed to cheer up, and no one dared to really think that Emperor Hongwu would lose his authority if he abdicated.

Old Zhu looked at little Zhu, and said slowly, "Prince, stand upright. In the early years, I took your father to the court, and today I will take you to the court. As the superior, when you meet with the officials every day, Listen to and review the reports of various yamen, and learn how to handle affairs."

Little Zhu immediately knelt down and listened to Lao Zhu's lecture. Although Lao Zhu had said many things in private, it was different from being in court, and the meaning here was naturally different.

Looking at little Zhu, the old Zhu said in a gentle tone, "In the early years, I also told the emperor's grandfather that he went to the ministers to listen to and judge the affairs of the ministers, so as to practice state affairs. Be kind, be clear, be diligent, be decisive, and be honest. You can manage the country well. Now that you are old, you should learn and assist your father in handling daily government affairs."

Little Zhu immediately replied decisively, "Sun Chen leads the order!"

The martial arts members of the Xu lineage were all beaming with joy. Although they had known for a long time that His Highness the crown prince's status was stable, but in many cases, as long as the crown prince had not yet ascended to the great treasure, it meant that there might be some variables.

Now, Emperor Hongwu not only designated heirs from generation to generation in the early years, but now designates heirs from generation to generation again.

It is obvious that the crown prince's status is stable, regardless of the body of the emperor Yingshi, even if the emperor Yingshi's body is healthy, there is no need to worry about some things in the future.After all, this is the heir designated by the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and Emperor Yingshi cannot abolish the prince.

Lao Zhu, who was sitting on the dragon chair, spoke directly at this time, and said, "A few days ago, the emperor was in charge of the government. I spent my life in Qianqing Palace, and I know very little about the affairs of the government. Dear friends, do you have something to report?" ?”

Little Zhu, who stood facing the civil and military officials, tried her best not to laugh out loud, because her great-grandfather didn't know anything.Don't say that the great-grandfather knew about those important court affairs, even little Zhu knew a lot of things, he was not allowed to touch the court affairs like his imperial brother.

When Lao Zhu took little Zhu to the morning court, Zhu Yunying slept very soundly, and it was fine if he didn't need to get up early.

Zhu Yunying, who rarely slept until he woke up naturally, got up and washed under the service of Mrs. Wang, and Zhu Wenying also had a very rare opportunity to greet his father and emperor good morning. How can there be such treatment on weekdays, at most it is just asking someone to say hello.

Zhu Yunying was in a good mood, had breakfast with his wife and children, and also briefly tested Zhu Wenying.

Although Zhu Wenying is a scumbag and quite stubborn, Zhu Yunying is also quite a headache for his second boy, and it can even be said that he does not expect too much.

It's just that no matter whether he is a king or a father, Zhu Yunying should not ignore it. Although anyone with a discerning eye can see Zhu Yunying's partiality, there are some things that should be done.

It's probably because Zhu Wenying's usual performance is really bad, and Zhu Yunying really doesn't have any expectations for this bear kid.So even if Zhu Wenqi's performance is relatively poor, Zhu Yunying can be regarded as passing the test smoothly.

This also means that the rare father is kind and the son is filial. At least it is not good news to see Zhu Yunying angry again, and Zhu Wenying looks a little timid and scared. very low.

After breakfast, Zhu Yunying, who didn't need to go to court, left slowly. Even though Wang Shi and Zhu Wenchen seemed a little bit reluctant, Zhu Yunying had no other choice.

There are more wives and concubines, and more children. Zhu Yunying also has a tight schedule and heavy tasks.Since it is not easy to be too partial, then try to be fair, even if this fairness is relatively speaking, it is indeed relatively limited.

Seeing Zhu Yunying coming, Zhu Ruyi happily ran over, "Father, aren't you going to court today?"

Holding her daughter's hand, Zhu Yunying said with a smile, "Let's take a rest today, and let your great-grandfather and your emperor brother go to court on our behalf. Let's come over to see Ruyi, and talk to us about our girls. "

Zhu Ruyi was very happy, and said braggingly, "Father, we have read a lot of books. You don't like us reading dead books. If you don't like us, we are just Four Books and Five Classics. We are still learning to recite poems and paint, but we have no talent, no Poetry like Dad."

Poetry talent, this can be regarded as one of Zhu Yunying's labels, one of the capitals that makes his relatives proud of him.

Zhu Yunying feels a little guilty when he mentions this, but fortunately, his copying is relatively limited. Of course, he probably has experienced some things too much, so Zhu Yunying can feel at ease most of the time now, and there is nothing to worry about, let alone embarrassment.

Holding Zhu Ruyi's hand, Zhu Yunying said with a smile, "Then let's hire a few painters for our Ruyi. Our Ruyi is Zhilan Huixin and talented. If it wasn't because you are our daughter, I would have agreed to it a long time ago." The most powerful talented woman in Tianfu."

Zhu Ruyi was very happy and confident, "We also thought so. The emperor and the queen also said that we are talented. A few days ago, my little aunt also said that my father's talents were given to us. Without our talent!"

Chatting with children is also a very pleasant thing, especially chatting with my own children, I feel even more happy.

For Zhu Yunying's arrival, Lian Qiongqiong was naturally very happy, and hurriedly waited on Zhu Yunying.

Pillowing on Lian Qiongqiong's round thigh, Zhu Yunying asked casually, "Ruyi, do you know what major events our Ming Dynasty has created?"

Zhu Ruyi immediately said, "First Xiaoling Mausoleum was built in Hongwu 14th year. In the first year of Yingshi, new mausoleums were also built. Dongling Mausoleum is also being built now, and the mausoleums of the emperor's grandfather and emperor's grandmother are also being built today. Imperial Mausoleum."

On the Zijin Mountain, there is indeed a 'big construction' now.Lao Zhu's mausoleum has been under construction for more than 20 years, but as long as Lao Zhu does not die, it needs to continue to be repaired, and work must not be stopped.Of course, the main body of the Xiaoling Mausoleum is basically completed, and now it is just 'delaying the construction period'.

And Dazhu and Chang's family were posthumously proclaimed as empresses, and the original tombs of Prince Yiwen and Princess Concubine were of course upgraded to imperial mausoleums.It's just that they were chased after all, and the layout of the mausoleum was basically completed.

The Xiling Mausoleum chosen by Lao Zhu for Zhu Yunying is also under construction now, and it has been the fourth year.But there is no need to rush the construction period, as long as it is done step by step, Zhu Yunying is still young and in good health.

But even so, the three imperial mausoleums that are still under construction are relatively huge projects, and no one dares to be sloppy.

Zhu Ruyi continued to say at this time, "In the 23rd year of Hongwu, my father supervised the construction of Beiping Mansion by order, and now it has been 11 years. Although I heard that the imperial city of Beiping Mansion was built, and the city was also built. But we also heard that there are still It is being built, the palace is being built."

Yes, it has been 11 years since Zhu Yunying went to Beiping Mansion to build the imperial city.

And as long as Lao Zhu has not died, Zhu Yunying will not be able to really move the capital.Even though a lot of preliminary preparations have been made, and even a lot of work to move the capital is slowly being implemented, everyone knows that all of this depends on the dragon body of Emperor Hongwu.

In fact, Beiping Mansion has basically been repaired, but it still needs further improvement. It seems that such a project has been carried out for ten years.But it's nothing at all, even if Zhu Yunying moved the capital, Beiping Mansion and the Imperial City still need to be further improved.

Building the imperial city and building the capital city are out-and-out major projects, and they are national affairs that cannot be neglected.

Zhu Ruyi continued at this time, "Brother Huang also said last time that the emperor's father is the most important navy. Fujian, Guangzhou, Tianjin and our Longjiang shipyards are all building large ships. In addition to many shipwrights, there are also a lot of wood. It is said that the wood from Yunnan and Guizhou will either be used to build the imperial mausoleum, build the capital city, or build ships.”

This is no problem, the Ming Dynasty is indeed short of wood now, or there is a great demand for wood.

Whether it is to build imperial mausoleums or imperial cities, extremely precious wood is needed, and the demand is huge.And the wood needed for shipbuilding also needs to be carefully selected and continuously processed, etc. This is not a small demand.

This can be regarded as a major construction project, but Zhu Yunying doesn't think there is any problem with it, and such things must be done.The large-scale construction, this kind of large-scale construction will continue, and it can even be said that it will take a long time.

Seeing Zhu Yunying nodded, Zhu Ruyi who was encouraged continued to say, "Brother Huang also said that Emperor Father relocated and developed in Jingxiang, and a lot of farm tools and cattle were transported there. There are more people over there, and they all need houses. Abandon."

"That's a big deal, but our imperial court only needs to guide and facilitate it." Zhu Yunying said lightly, "Those are people's livelihood, and it can be considered that the common people should do well by themselves, and it can't be regarded as the imperial court's large-scale construction."

Zhu Ruyi nodded immediately. Although she didn't fully understand it, it didn't matter.

In Zhu Ruyi's view, as long as her father said it, it must be right and there is no need to doubt it.And most of what her imperial brother said was correct, mainly because her imperial brother always lied to her, so sometimes Zhu Ruyi would doubt her imperial brother.

The big construction, this is where it is, what Zhu Yunying will do next is the real big construction.

Speaking of which, there were quite a few large-scale projects in the Ming Dynasty. The imperial city and the imperial mausoleum were basically completed, so there was no need to concentrate more resources.This is also a good thing, and some resources can be spared to support the governance of Huanghuai.

Zhu Yunying has nothing to worry about, these things naturally need to consume a lot of resources, but Zhu Yunying doesn't think that such a large-scale construction is for pleasure, this is something that must be done.

Of course, Zhu Yunying will fully support such a thing that must be done, and he also believes that the current Ming Dynasty has the national strength to undertake such several major projects going hand in hand, which will not cause too much trouble.

The national power of the Ming Dynasty was strong, which naturally gave Zhu Yunying more confidence, allowing him to advance some major projects at the same time.

If you are powerful, you can be so arrogant!
