Emperor Ming's grandson

Regarding how Xu Miaoqing got along with Lao Zhu, Zhu Yunying didn't need to worry too much about it.

Xu Miaoqing is a smart person and knows how to measure it.So it's good to stop as soon as possible, there are some things in her mind.It may also be due to her personality. She knew what she did would please the emperor, and she also knew what she did would dislike Emperor Hongwu.

Since this is the case, there is no need for Zhu Yunying to worry about those things.For him, family affairs are of course extremely important.But an emperor can't be worried about his parents all day long, he still has more things to do.

In fact, it was not as expected by Zhu Yunying. The courtiers obviously did not give up. They still hoped to persuade the emperor at the last moment, and hoped that the emperor would be able to turn around at the last moment and change his mind at the last moment.

In the past, I advised His Majesty the Emperor, hoping that he could ask the Supreme Emperor for an order, so that the cabinet could be justified.But obviously, those courtiers were disappointed, and the emperor's obsession failed to make them get what they wanted.

Sending troops to Korea, or governing Huanghuai, these major events have also been advised by some ministers.It's just that on those matters, those ministers were even admonishing, but the emperor had made up his mind, and they couldn't completely stop them, and even some ministers had different opinions.

But this time it was different. Most of the courtiers were in the same opinion, but they met the emperor who was determined to go his own way.

The Supreme Emperor, the Emperor and the Crown Prince went out of the palace together, which simply made all civil and military officials tremble with fear.It's okay to leave one or two out of the palace, at least one must be kept in the palace, so that everyone can feel more at ease.

If this is taken by one pot, it will definitely cause turmoil in Daming's country, and the world that has finally settled down may also become chaotic.The inheritance of the throne, which seemed to have no suspense, will inevitably have many turbulences.

The courtiers have the concerns of the courtiers, which can be said to be very normal, and Zhu Yunying also expressed his understanding.

It's just that even if understanding is understanding, Zhu Yunying still has his own thoughts and ideas.There is no need to accept those advices.

For some concerns about Jiangshan Sheji, this is the duty of the courtiers.This actually includes the maintenance of etiquette and law by many courtiers, which is what they think of as the norms of ethics.

If only the emperor and prince went to Xiaoling to worship, then everyone would not have much opinion, there is also a 'filial piety' here.It's really the emperor's determination, and everyone dare not stop it, for fear of affecting the emperor's filial piety.

But the Supreme Emperor was going to Xiaoling, which caused resistance from many ministers, and they also felt that such a thing should not be done.

Although Empress Ma is now buried in Xiaoling, although Empress Ma's legacy is still talked about by many courtiers.But from the point of view of etiquette, Lao Zhu must not go to worship Empress Ma, or else he would violate the principles of ethics.

Furthermore, based on some people's understanding of Emperor Hongwu, since he went to Xiaoling, he might go to Dongling if he didn't pay attention.

Then here comes the problem, sacrificing husbands to wives and fathers to sons, this simply collapses those officials who value etiquette.

But obviously, even if their opinions are not small, it doesn't seem to have any effect.Even though the objections of some courtiers seemed to be more intense, Emperor Yingshi was determined. …

A noisy person can be imprisoned temporarily, and no one can stop him.As for those courtiers, most of them will be released afterwards.Of course, there are also some who are not enlightened, maybe they will be assigned by Zhu Yunying, and the emperor is also a little cautious.

Zhu Yunying had made a decision to go to Xiaoling this time, and Lao Zhu could also be said to have made a decision. No one could change their minds.Obviously, this is not casual talk. Once the emperor is determined, it is difficult to be changed.

Especially Emperor Hongwu and Emperor Yingshi, both of them had a dogmatic temperament, and they even liked to deliberately confront civil servants and generals in many cases.

Ying Tianfu is of great significance to Lao Zhu, and it can be said that this is the place where he really established his hegemony.After capturing here that year, Lao Zhu began to truly sweep the world, destroying and expelling all the enemies.

And Zijin Mountain has the reputation of Jinling Yuxiu.Also because of this place, it looks like a giant dragon with twists and turns, called Zhongfu Longpan.

The Xiaoling Mausoleum is located at the foot of Mount Everest in Dulongfu, at the southern foot of the Zijin Mountain. In the 14th year of Hongwu, the old Zhu ordered Li Xin to preside over the construction of the mausoleum.A year later, Empress Ma passed away and was buried in Xiaoling.

Over the years, the construction of Xiaoling has never stopped.The shape is enhanced by referring to the tombs of the emperors of the Tang and Song dynasties. The Xiangdian is majestic and the pavilions are magnificent. Half of the [-] temples in the Southern Dynasties were surrounded by forbidden gardens.

Moreover, the imperial wall built from Chaoyangmen to Xiaolingwei to the northwest of the mausoleum is more than 40 miles long, and there are more than 5000 troops guarding the mausoleum.The pavilions and pavilions in the cemetery are connected to each other, and the hall is surrounded by smoke, pines and forests, and thousands of long-lived deer are raised.During the crowing of the deer, the momentum was extraordinary.

At this time, the Xiaoling Mausoleum looked extremely lively. The soldiers of the Beijing camp were not qualified to accompany them, but they were already guarded by Xiaoling Mausoleum guards.Indispensably, there are naturally the emperor's personal guards such as Jinyiwei and Bannermanwei.

Lao Zhu didn't need to get off his horse, and continued to sit in the Luanjia, "Do you want to call your father over?"

Little Zhu, who was in Lao Zhu's arms, said, "That won't work. Our father was brought up by his great-grandmother. Even the younger brothers and sisters are not very old. If they are tired from walking, you can call them over."

"If they don't make it, let them go for a while, and let them take the sedan chair when they are tired." Lao Zhu was very partial and did not hide it. Don't follow along, talk to us."

Little Zhu was very curious and asked, "Great-grandfather, many people say that Feng Shui is good here, why can't we see it?"

Lao Zhu didn't hide it, so he said, "We can't tell the truth about it, but some people know it. During the Warring States period, the state of Chu built Jinling Town here, and it was called Zhongshan in the Han Dynasty. It was said that there was a dragon vein here before. It is the place where Wang Qi concentrates and accumulates."

Little Zhu also hurriedly said, "Our Yingtian Mansion was originally a collection of kings, and the Eastern Wu, Eastern Jin, Southern Dynasties Song, Qi, Liang, and Chen established their capitals here. Even if they are not as good as our Great Ming, our Great Ming is unified, They’re all in a corner of peace.”

Lao Zhu said proudly, "That's the reason, so we moved Sun Quan's mausoleum. You often travel in Jinling, and you know that the people like to catch wind and shadows. We just want to monopolize the dragon's veins, but they say we think Sun Quan is still a good man, so he can only guard the gate for us."  …

Little Zhu smiled and said, "Sun Zhongmou is indeed capable, but he is far behind his great-grandfather. He has the family property left by his father and brother, and he can only guard it. Besides, he obviously got the family business from his elder brother. His brother is extremely stingy in chasing after him!"

Old Zhu smiled, and said to Little Zhu, "That's why we always say: the most ruthless emperor's family. Once this has something to do with the dragon chair, human nature will fade away. If we hadn't been on guard against these years ago, Our Great Ming will inevitably have to fight each other, and brothers will turn against each other."

Xiao Zhu also thought about the same reason, "It seems to be the same. No one dares to think about our grandfather's seat, but our father was missed many years ago. We can all understand, why can't others understand?! Let's say, even if the throne is there, people will lose their minds!"

Old Zhu smiled and said to Little Zhu, "It means that your father and you dare to say these things, which is worthy of our Ming Dynasty orthodoxy. Your father said in the early years that some things should belong to him, and no one else can touch them or steal them. You should also do this." Generally speaking, when your younger brothers are older, you should let them understand this. A little brotherhood is better than brotherhood."

The difference between monarch and minister still needs to be clarified early, so that some human tragedies can actually be avoided.

Looking through the history books, there are too many bloody stories about the throne, so the emperor of the Ming Dynasty also hoped to avoid these things.

Little Zhu nodded half-understood, but actually he didn't have any sense of crisis.Because my younger brother is still drinking milk, it's fun to be fat.As for the second brother, he knows how to eat and play like crazy all day long, and he has no other thoughts.

The position of the crown prince, and even the dragon chair, Xiao Zhu took it for granted that it belonged to him, and there was no doubt about it.

Lao Zhu pointed out the window and said, "This is Dulongfu. A monk from the Liang Dynasty was buried before. We also moved him away. This is because the dragon veins can only prosper one person, so we can only let him go. "

While Old Zhu was chatting with Little Zhu, the emperor's Luanjia stopped suddenly.The next moment, Zhu Yunying boarded the Luanjia with Zhu Wenkun in his arms, and Xu Miaoqing naturally followed.

Zhu Yunying was not polite, and said, "Grandfather, this is Dajinmen. When you are buried in the future, we will definitely erect a monument for you. It just so happens that you are here today. If we build a monument in the future, how should we inscribe it?" "

The steles and stele pavilions of divine merit and virtue are also as they should be.It's just that Lao Zhu is still alive, so naturally there is no need to erect a monument, otherwise it would be cursing Lao Zhu.

Lao Zhu thought for a while and said, "We don't care much about those reputations. You can decide what to inscribe. Our merits and demerits are right and wrong. If you inscribe the inscription, others may not necessarily recognize it. If others want to If you want an inscription, you don’t have that kind of blessing.”

This is really Lao Zhu's character. Lao Zhu, who came from a humble background, never shies away from others talking about his background, and doesn't care about some people talking about his right and wrong.But in the eyes of Lao Zhu, those who show off their pens are not qualified to judge him.

Zhu Yunying thought for a while and said, "This is also the reason. At that time, we will not learn from Wu Zetian and make a stele without words for future generations to comment on. Let's detail the merits of the emperor's grandfather, talk about our emperor's background, ambition, and say Our grandpa made a fortune and settled the capital. Created our great Ming foundation, expelled the Tartars, and made our Han family orthodox!"…

Little Zhu immediately said, "That is, the Yuan family will be in charge of China for a hundred years, and the custom of clothing has changed to the left lapel, and the Yi Lun has been broken! Great-grandfather Zhen Tao, a heavy-duty man, has made great achievements and virtues, in the world, in the world. Shengmin! Even if our father is the emperor, he is not qualified to comment!"

Old Zhu nodded in relief, and said, "Remember to engrave our heirs on it when the time comes, and that's about it."

Zhu Yunying nodded with a smile, these things really need him to do.Some things about Lao Zhu's death naturally fell on Zhu Yunying's shoulders as it should be, and of course they needed to be done beautifully.

The stele of divine power and virtue is naturally extremely important, and this can be regarded as a kind of final conclusion, so naturally we can't be careless.It is also the right thing to consider word by word.

Even if Lao Zhu doesn't seem to care about some comments, it doesn't mean that Zhu Yunying can treat them carelessly.

If it's too nasty, or deliberately flattering, then it's unnecessary.There is no need to emphasize your own identity, status, etc., you only need to describe Lao Zhu's life objectively as an emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the grandson of Emperor Hongwu.

This is also in line with Lao Zhu's character, he is not the kind of character who is flattered by others.

When he arrived at Xiangdian, Lao Zhu looked at Empress Ma's memorial tablet and said, "Let's all go out, the emperor, the prince, and the empress stay."

Including Zhou Wang Zhu Wei and Wu Wang Zhu Yunxi, they were kicked out before they entered the hall of worship.

But they didn't dare to have any complaints, so they hurried out and waited obediently.This is what should be, because they are not only princes and grandsons, they are also sons and grandsons, and each of them is very clear about their own position, and they dare not overstep.

In fact, Zhu Wenkun was also taken away. Of course, he is not eligible to worship in Xiangdian, at least not now.

Xu Miaoqing didn't need to be reminded, she went straight forward to light the incense, knelt down and respectfully handed it to Lao Zhu.

Old Zhu glanced at Xu Miaoqing, and then said to little Zhu, "Bring incense for us and let your great-grandmother see."

Little Zhu couldn't be troubled by these little things, and he was familiar with these things.After all, I have to go to Fengxian Temple several times a year to worship, and many things need to be done by Xiaozhu himself. After all, he is not a child anymore.

Things like filial piety were very important to the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty.Loss of filial piety is no small matter.So what to do, and how to keep a good sense of proportion, Xiao Zhu actually already knew it well.

Zhu Yunying just stood by and took the incense from Xu Miaoqing's hand after little Zhu respectfully offered the incense, "Grandmother, grandson is here to see you."

"She loves you the most, and she couldn't let you go before she left." Looking at the tablet of Empress Ma, Lao Zhu said, "Sometimes we blame you, if she didn't take care of you day and night, maybe I wouldn't. left so early."

Xu Miaoqing was terrified, but Zhu Yunying was very calm, "Then Grandpa Huang will ask Grandma in the future, anyway, I think Grandma will not blame me. I can't say that Grandpa Huang is here to play tricks and drive a wedge between my grandmother and me." !"

Old Zhu glared at Zhu Yunying fiercely, a little uncomfortable, "Your grandmother took you for eight years, we took you for 28 years, and you still protect her! You little brat is not familiar with it! "

Zhu Yunying smiled and said nothing, and said to little Zhu, "Come here, let your great-grandmother take a good look. Your great-grandmother is the most virtuous person we have ever seen."

Old Zhu interjected, "That's reasonable, there is no more virtuous and virtuous woman than her. In the future, you can find a princess who is half as good as your great-grandmother, and we will be satisfied."

In Lao Zhu's eyes, all the women in the world are inferior to his sister.
