I want to be a grandson

Chapter 51
Zhu Yuanzhang often asked Liu Sanwu about the way to govern the country and the people, the strategy of selecting talents and appointing talents, and entrusted him with the important task of publishing regulations and rituals and the method of selecting scholars in three occasions.

During this period, Liu Sanwu edited the royal classics such as "Cultivating the Mind", "Provincial Gonglu", "Ritual System Collection", and "Huanyu Tongzhi", which were highly praised by Zhu Yuanzhang.

At that time, the imperial court recruited a group of Yuan Dynasty survivors and old Confucian scholars who were called "people who practiced the classics and practiced the current affairs" to prepare for consultant inquiries.

Among them, Liu Sanwu, Wang Rui, and Zhu Shan, who were honored together as the "Three Elders", received the most generous courtesy.

"History of the Ming Dynasty Biography of Liu Sanwu" praised him for being "generous, without setting up a city mansion,...until the big festival, he is so invincible".

Facing Zhu Yuanzhang's joke, Liu Sanwu didn't feel embarrassed, and said in response: "Your Majesty, I eat whole grains, drink water from the abyss, and use ordinary herbs. There is nothing special about it. I recommend it to Your Majesty. "

He also said: "It may be that the old minister has a straightforward personality and a calm heart. He doesn't think about irrelevant things, and he doesn't think about how to calculate others. Only in this way can he eat and sleep well."

"Hahaha...you, you call yourself Tantan Weng, and you are not afraid of being said that you are old and not ashamed."

Liu Sanwu said frankly: "I have nothing to be ashamed to report to Your Majesty. I am open-minded and have nothing to say to others."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him, and asked with a smile on his face: "All the feudal lords are moving around the capital now. Hearing what you say, they didn't give you any rare treasures?"

He frowned again and reprimanded: "You are our Hanlin bachelor, so that's a lot of weight, and they are too blind! Didn't you come to your house to pay homage and make contact with each other?"

Liu Sanwu said without changing his expression: "I would like to inform you, Your Majesty, that someone came to the minister's house, but they were all turned away by the minister. I have a salary to support the whole family, and I have land to nourish my life. It's not bad for that little money." .”

Zhu Yuanzhang appreciated the old man's frankness very much, "You don't understand that, if you really want to let them in, you will know that it is not a little money, by the way... who is so discerning in our son?"

Liu Sanwu replied: "Your Majesty, Guangchen knows about King Qin, King Jin, and King Zhou. Those who are blocked by the housekeeper don't know about it. I haven't asked."

Zhu Yuanzhang said as if he was making a family routine: "Look, my family is not peaceful now. My sons all want to be the masters of the family, and now they are not living in peace. I am so impatient!"

But Liu Sanwu said: "Your Majesty, you can't blame the vassal kings. If the heir is not determined, they will feel that everyone has a chance. How can they not fight or grab peace."

Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him, and said displeasedly: "Then you mean that this is my responsibility!"

Liu Sanwu was not afraid, "I'm just telling the truth, I don't mean to criticize His Majesty. For the stability of the court, I beg Your Majesty to appoint a prince as soon as possible!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were full of sadness, "Why don't you think about it for us? Our son was buried not long ago, and he is about to be established as a heir. Even this little affection has to be erased. How can I bear it now? The prince's bones are not cold, so the tea is cold?"

Liu Sanwu sighed softly, as an elder, how could he not feel the pain of bereavement.

"Your Majesty, please mourn..."

It is heart-wrenching for a white-haired person to send a black-haired person.

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, his eyes were slightly red.

In his heart, he couldn't bear and didn't want to give the position and title of prince to others. That was the prince he had been calling for more than 20 years.

Now every time the word prince is mentioned, Zhu Yuanzhang's voice and smile will appear in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind.

Moreover, giving the position of prince to others so quickly made Zhu Yuanzhang, who had always valued family affection, feel that it was too ungrateful and ungrateful, and he couldn't accept it.

Liu Sanwu persuaded: "The old minister knows that His Majesty feels uncomfortable, but if there is no crown prince in Ming Dynasty, the colleagues in the court will not feel at ease, and the situation in Ming Dynasty will not be safe..."

"Besides, if His Majesty does not establish a crown prince for a day, the vassal kings will not stop. The courtiers will be drawn into factions by them, and they will attack each other to a certain extent, and even the vassal kings will be hostile to each other. The situation is like water and fire... Your Majesty , please think twice!"

Zhu Yuanzhang also knew that the political situation must be stabilized and could not be allowed to develop. He valued family affection the most, so how could he just watch his son become the enemy of life and death.

Although he couldn't bear it, he still had to compromise and let go of his grief for his eldest son Zhu Biao.

He mocked and said: "My family is not worry-free, you are laughing at me."

He looked a little blankly and said: "But it is also a headache to establish a crown prince. To establish a prince and establish a head, you know the virtues of our second child. Do you think he has the image of an emperor?"

Liu Sanwu couldn't help but frown slightly, and according to the order of succession, it would be King Qin's turn.

But King Zhu of Qin is now the scourge of Chang'an!
He often beat officials and even killed them because of minor mistakes, and indulged villains into the palace to hang out with them.

Moreover, they leapfrogged to build mansions, made five-clawed dragon beds, and weaved rear clothes. At the same time, they oppressed the people.

There are so many crimes and shame, how can such a person be an emperor!
King Qin has a cruel personality, but the members of the old Zhu family seem to have a natural ability to lead troops, and he can be regarded as a qualified general.

When the rebels in the Northwest rebelled in the 28th year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang thought of Zhu Yu at the first time, so he ordered him to lead Pingqiang General Ning Zheng to Taozhou to conquer the rebels.

Zhu Yu also knew that this was his opportunity to make meritorious deeds and atone for his sins. Now that Zhu Biao was dead, and after returning from his patrol in Guanzhong, this more or less made Zhu Yuanzhang feel uncomfortable with him.

He knew that he had to work hard to win his father's forgiveness, so he paid extra attention to this dispatch of troops, and was invincible along the way, and soon surrendered the rebels, pacifying the war.

Unfortunately, Zhu Xing got sick because of sleeping in the mountains during the expedition, and died soon after returning to Xi'an. Zhu Xing was just 40 years old that year.

Zhu Yuanzhang wrote a sacrificial article to his son as an evaluation of his son's life and a final conclusion.

In addition to bestowing posthumous titles and arranging funeral ceremonies, Zhu Xi's crimes were listed in great length in the sacrificial text.

Sternly said: "You are a villain, licentious, debauched, ravaged the territory, angered the sky, repeatedly tried to be taught, and finally lost consciousness, and died."

"Although you are dead, Yu Gu is obvious. Looking at what you have done, it is unprecedented in ancient times. In terms of public law, the crime cannot be punished."

"Bill suffered from the dark to vent the wrath of the gods and men." "The Congratulations to the King of Qin"

This means: "You are close to the villain, licentious and debauched, you spoil wherever you go, you are angry with others, and you refuse to change after repeated admonitions, resulting in your own death. Even if you die, you will not be able to make up for the sins you have committed.

What you have done, if judged by justice and law, killing you is not enough to atone for the crime.

Let you suffer in the underworld, so that the gods can vent their anger. "

This means that Zhu Yu was never forgiven by Zhu Yuanzhang until his death, and even his father thought he deserved his death!I deserve to die!
See what kind of ritual is this? !

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang will never let Qin Wang Zhu Xi be the emperor!
