Chapter 229: Zhu Ying and his Little Emperor Uncles(1/2)
After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang began to talk about serious matters.
"Dasun, this kind of thing can't happen again in the future. The plague is so terrifying and there is no cure. If something happens, how will you let us live?"
After hearing the old man's instructions, Zhu Ying said helplessly: "Grandpa, others don't know, but you don't know. My grandson didn't go to a dangerous place."
"It's more than a mile away from the nearest city where the plague occurred. The plague basically shows symptoms in two days, so it's very safe."
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head: "You can't be careless. It takes several days for ordinary people to walk more than a hundred miles, but it only takes a day to go back and forth on horseback."
Zhu Ying could only cry and laugh.
As cautious as he is, he has naturally arranged everything in advance.
None of the people who reported letters had direct contact with Zhu Ying. Even the letters were read.
There are many levels in it.
That's all. Seeing the old man acting like this, Zhu Ying didn't explain much.
After reprimanding him, Zhu Yuanzhang saw that his eldest son had a good attitude, and then encouraged him and said: "In general, my eldest son has performed very well regarding the plague."
"He saved the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. We heard that in Henan, he is now calling Da Sun the Reincarnated Living Buddha, and every household has put an longevity plaque on Da Sun."
After receiving this honor, Zhu Ying not only did not feel proud, but instead said with some regret:
"My grandson is commanding from behind, so he is safe. But those who are working on the front line are the real heroes."
"Since my grandson passed away, a total of 372 people have died from infection due to fighting the plague."
Only Zhu Ying understands that these are things that ordinary people cannot see.
Not only those who died from the plague, but also those who dared to enter the plague areas were heroes.
In just one month, many touching and touching stories emerged.
Zhu Ying has arranged for personnel to compile these stories. Once the compilation is completed, they will be recorded in the form of biographies.
Thinking of this, Zhu Ying spoke again: "Grandpa, the plague in Henan this time was so severe and could be controlled in such a short period of time, it was inseparable from these people who sacrificed their lives for it."
"So Sun'er wanted to build temples in several cities in Henan where the plague was most severe so that they could enjoy incense and sacrifices."
After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was silent for a moment and said, "Dasun must know that if this is the case, this reputation will spread a lot."
Zhu Ying nodded and said: "My grandson knows it in his heart, but only in this way can he feel at peace. Otherwise, my grandson will be unworthy of this fame."
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed with appreciation.
There is no one who is not greedy for fame, especially the emperor, who cares more about leaving a name in history.
It is extremely rare that the great grandson can do this.
"When you come back this time, don't run around this year. We have arranged for the Qintian Supervisor to check the life here. On the first day of October, we will confer the eldest grandson as the great grandson."
Speaking of the matter of canonization, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and continued: "It is the blessing of the Ming Dynasty that the great grandson can come back."
"We are thinking that on the first day of October, the day when the grandson is canonized, the whole country will celebrate together, establish a holiday, and make it a National Day."
After Zhu Ying heard this, she suddenly felt a little confused.
National Day is the first day of October, so don’t be too familiar with it.
"Okay, since the eldest grandson has no objection, then the matter will be settled like this."
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw that his eldest grandson was silent, he smiled and agreed.
Hearing this, Zhu Ying recovered from her daze.
His mouth opened slightly, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
This can be considered a coincidence.
"The fifth prince has a lot of complaints about the vassal affairs. We are too old now, so we don't bother to take care of it. Let the eldest grandson handle it by himself."
"Now the five uncles of the eldest grandson are probably aware of his identity. After all, he is one of his own family members, so don't go too far."
Zhu Yuanzhang ordered.
Some of the fifth prince's daily conversations, especially his views on Zhu Ying, will be recorded by the eunuchs and then presented to His Majesty.
As for the fifth prince, he is his son no matter what.
Zhu Yuanzhang was still quite worried.
If left unchecked, Da Sun would not be a bad person.
It would be embarrassing if he left on his own and was angered, sending him away for a reunion.
Now that the matter has been resolved and suppressed by myself, at least it will not cause too much impact.
Zhu Ying nodded and said: "Grandpa, don't worry, my grandson will take care of the matter of the five imperial uncles. I think the five uncles are all sensible and will not be too harsh on the grandson."
After hearing Da Sun's words, Zhu Yuanzhang was half relieved.
At least with this current attitude, Zhu Ying has no intention of doing anything hard.
Dasun was a businessman before. Businessmen are smooth and generally not too rigid in dealing with matters.
.......
Inside the Zuoshun Gate, the five princes gathered together.
It has been more than a month now, and the training in the palace is not over yet.
Although Zhu Ying left, the instructor of Xuanjiawei was there, so everything was going on in an orderly manner.
In more than a month, not only the prince and grandson said that the palace guards have been well trained.
At least, when the guards patrolling the palace were walking in formation, the eunuchs and maids who were originally afraid of the guards were now even more frightened.
When the Imperial Guards passed by, they could only stand still and did not dare to move at all.
After the guards left, they continued to move.
It has to be said that the uniform pace and the resolute and cold eyes are really intolerable to most people.
The Imperial Guards themselves have seen blood, and this training has forced their evil spirits that had gradually weakened to come out again.
By practicing three times a day, even the physical fitness of the royal family members has been greatly improved.
There is always a burst of energy radiating out.
Not only did they get out of training, they gathered together to have a drink and a meal.
"You said our life, when did it end? We practice like this every day, although we are more accustomed to it now, but compared to the days when we were in school, it is simply too cruel."
The Nineteenth Prince Zhu Su said in an unhappy tone.
After finishing speaking, he drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp, looking a little irritable.
After hearing this, the Eighteenth Prince Zhu Zhen said: "Nineteenth Brother, this is all father's intention. I think the training is quite good now."
"Especially the training of soldiers. When we become queen, won't we have a lot more ideas about military training?"
As soon as Zhu Chu finished speaking, Zhu Chu retorted: "Brother 18, you are still thinking about becoming a vassal. Have you forgotten the meaning of your father's lecture some time ago?"
"Given the current situation, we are not sure when we will become a vassal. Besides, His Highness Changsun is back now."
"It's his wish to decide on the vassal status."
"Wait, how long will it take?"
Zhu Su's words made everyone quiet down immediately. When it came to his father and His Highness the Grandson, whom he had never met before, everyone had a lot of worries when speaking.
"I think that even if I become a vassal later, it's actually not bad. There is no better place in the vassal than the capital. Just look at the brothers of the vassal, which one is as happy as the capital."
"My brothers in the border areas have to go to war every day. Even the brothers inside are busy with endless things every day."
Twenty princes, King Zhu Song of Han said.
Although he is only twelve years old, he is cautious, intelligent and alert.
Seeing that the 19th brother Zhu Su started to complain, especially when His Highness Changsun was involved, he immediately came out to smooth things over.
Of course, these words were indeed what Zhu Song was thinking.
When the previous vassal kings came back, even though Zhu Song was only in his teens, he still pestered his brothers to tell them about the vassal queen.
All he heard was countless troubles, and Zhu Song was most afraid of troubles.
Zhu Song in history did not become a vassal in his whole life, and finally died of illness in the capital.
It is actually correct to call Zhu Ying His Royal Highness Changsun.
Even the oldest Zhu Zhu here was born in the eleventh year of Hongwu and is only fourteen years old this year.
Zhu Ying was born in the seventh year of Hongwu, so he was four years older.
For other families, it’s okay to call them eldest nephew according to their seniority.
But the royal family is different.
The key is that Zhu Ying is still the eldest grandson of the emperor. In the current situation of the Ming Dynasty royal family, all fools know that Zhu Ying will be the future emperor.
Dare you trust me?
