Chapter 89: Abdication
Last time, we talked about urging the carpenter to use great magic to transport Zhu Youxiao to the queen's palace through the air. He happened to catch the queen getting up to dress up, so she was inexplicably surprised.
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty... Your Majesty! Is it really you? My Emperor! Woohoo..." When Zhang Yan, who was being dressed by the ladies, suddenly saw Tianqi Emperor Zhu Youxiao falling from the sky in front of her, she was immediately shocked.
He was so stunned that even the palace ladies were so frightened that they screamed and fell to their knees.
Since Tianqi Emperor Zhu Youxiao had been ill in bed for a long time, he was suspected of being infected by "water poison" (schistosomiasis) due to the bulge in his abdomen, and he was terminally ill. Therefore, when the girls saw this, they thought that the emperor was dead and that what appeared here was just a ghost.
That's all, even the eunuchs who were waiting at the door were scared to death when they heard the news and came over.
"Haha, I'm not dead! I was alive and well, how could I die? Hehe." Zhu Youxiao saw that Zhang Yan was frightened and turned pale, so he quickly explained: "It was an 'immortal master' who saved me
His life, and he even accepted me as his disciple. Master, my disciple knows that you are nearby, so please show up as soon as possible."
"Haha, you kid, you always like to pull me out as a shield when something happens? Well, just show up." As soon as the voice fell, a ray of light flashed out, and a man in a dress appeared beside Zhu Youxiao out of thin air.
A strange man in civilian clothes was smiling and looking at the panicked Queen Zhang Yan.
"Yan'er, come here and kowtow to Master, he saved my life!" Zhu Youxiao spoke excitedly, but he still recalled the feeling of flying just now in his heart.
"Zhang Yan pays homage to the 'Master', oh no, pays homage to the 'Immortal Master'! Thank you to the 'Immortal Master' for saving your husband's life!" After Zhang Yan was surprised, she secretly reached out and pinched herself. It felt very painful. She was sure she was not dreaming.
, then he quickly stood up and knelt down, and at the same time ordered all the maids and eunuchs to kneel down behind him.
"Haha, get up. Time is tight and I don't want to say more. After the next few stops and when we get to the court, you and the concubines will know."
As soon as he finished speaking, the carpenter continued to recite the curse, and with a wave of his sleeves, he released two rays of magic power, which rolled Emperor Zhu Youxiao and Queen Zhang Yan into a gust of wind and flew straight to the concubine's palace at the next stop.
In fact, although there were many "attendants" in the harem, there were only nine women who actually had sexual relations with Zhu Youxiao and became pregnant, namely Empress Zhang, Concubine Wang Liang, Concubine Duan Chun, Concubine Fan Hui, Concubine Li Cheng, Concubine Ren Rong, Concubine Zhang Yu,
Feng Guiren, Hu Guiren.
However, among the concubines of the Ming Dynasty, only the "high-ranking attendants" of "concubine" and above were eligible to receive the "canonization ceremony" hosted by the emperor. Otherwise, they could only rely on an imperial edict to identify their identity. Therefore, Ji Carpenter also
They just sent eight of them away and went straight to the court, because Concubine Zhang Yu had starved to death.
As for the remaining 41 "ladies" who reached the "campaign finals" with Queen Zhang at the same time, even if they were lucky enough to be favored by Tianqi Emperor Zhu Youxiao, they were not eligible to receive the "canonization gift" because they were not pregnant.
He received an imperial edict from the school to confirm his status, so he was not included in the rush to the court this time.
The title levels of concubines in the Ming Dynasty were: empress, imperial concubine, noble concubine, Xian concubine, Shu concubine, Zhuang concubine, Jing concubine, Hui concubine, Shun concubine, Kang concubine, Ning concubine, De concubine, Xian concubine, Zhuang concubine, Li concubine,
Hui concubine, An concubine, He concubine, Xi concubine, Kang concubine, Zhaoyi, Jieyu, beauty, talented person, selected attendant, lady, etc.
As for the "honorary titles" that the concubines can have, they express reverence and praise. They are usually given to the former emperor and concubines by the new emperor when he ascends the throne. Their titles are "Empress Dowager", "Empress Dowager", "Emperor Dowager" or "Treasure Queen".
"Concubine". The "emblem" is a "pattern" that praises virtues before the "title". It can be awarded multiple times, but only some concubines can get it. This mainly depends on the contribution of the concubine to the royal family.
For example, the emperor's "biological mother", "legitimate mother", and "adoptive mother".
At this time, the ministers in the court were waiting impatiently, because since King Xin Zhu Youjian was privately summoned by Emperor Tianqi yesterday, various rumors have spread like wildfire in the palace. Although the previous government affairs were "
The 9,900-year-old Wei Zhongxian and his "food tenants" the Hakka family controlled the situation, but many ministers did not buy it.
At this time, the high throne was still empty, and no one dared to sit on the seats on the left and right that originally belonged to Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka family. Of course, including King Xin Zhu Youjian, ministers and workers from the three provinces and six ministries in the mainland just habitually went to their assigned positions.
Rank, as if waiting for something? It is self-evident.
"Your Majesty has arrived!" As the eunuch accompanying him screamed with a harsh drake voice, all the ministers knelt down and kowtowed, and the mountains shouted like a tsunami: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" At this time, Emperor Zhu You of Tianqi
Jianpo Tianhuang led a group of concubines, and under the guidance of the palace maids and eunuchs, returned to the throne and ruled the world.
As usual, the next step was for the emperor to return the greeting and say, "All ministers are at peace," so that these ministers could stand up to speak or present their respective memorials. However, unexpectedly, Emperor Tianqi did not say anything, but instead acted as if nothing had happened.
Use your eyes to signal the accompanying eunuch to continue: "Good luck to the queen!"
"Eh? 'Queen's Auspicious'? What does it mean? This..." Many ministers were interrupted by these inexplicable words, and suddenly became confused. Then they lay on the ground, looked around, whispered to each other, and talked about each other.
I couldn't help laughing. However, Zhu Youxiao took the opportunity to hold Zhang Yan in his arms.
"All the ministers are safe!" Just when the ministers felt confused, Emperor Tianqi put his arms around Queen Zhang's waist and shouted loudly with all his strength. It was like a thunder explosion, completely suppressing the whispers of the ministers.
So he laughed and said: "I rule the world again, haha."
"Your Majesty, you... your dragon body...?" As soon as the ministers stood up straight, they couldn't help but raise their heads and look at the Tianqi Emperor Zhu Youxiao who was sitting in a high position. They saw that he was not only fierce but also powerful in his speech.
If it’s all right, then you know that it’s probably a “reflection”, maybe today, but you will definitely not survive tomorrow!
However, when they met again, he ignored the public and directly held the queen in his arms and caressed her in public. Suddenly, people felt that things were not as they seemed. As expected, Zhu Youxiao said loudly: "I am not a good emperor, so I decided
Take advantage of this early court meeting to clearly designate the heir to the throne."
"What? This..." The ministers originally thought that they heard it wrong. After all, there were rumors in the palace that among the emperor's many concubines, two of the "chosen attendants" were pregnant. However, Emperor Tianqi knew better than anyone else that this must be the case.
It's someone with ulterior motives who is spreading rumors, because he suffered from severe impotence before and was unable to have sex at all.
"The emperor of the Ming Dynasty carried out the edict and said: 'Believe in King Zhu Youjian, be loyal and filial, benevolent and protect the country, you should be Yao and Shun. From now on, the world belongs to Zhu Youjian, I admire this! Emperor Tianqi of the Ming Dynasty decrees!'" The voice
As soon as it fell, the accompanying eunuch quickly walked down the steps and thrust Emperor Tianqi's imperial edict into King Xin's arms.
Such a sudden scene immediately made the whole court seem to explode. Only King Xin Zhu Youjian was still standing dumbly, staring at the edict inserted in his arms, and allowed all the ministers and colleagues around him to come.
He came forward to congratulate and congratulate him but was indifferent. "King Xin, why don't you quickly accept the decree and express your gratitude? Thank you!"
Seeing that something was not going well, the accompanying eunuch quickly warned him, then trotted up the steps and stood behind Emperor Tianqi and his concubines again.
"My lord, Zhu Youjian thanks Longen! He will definitely live up to the emperor's order!" Zhu Youjian quickly knelt down on one knee and gave a military salute to Tianqi Emperor Zhu Youxiao who was sitting in a high position. In fact, since he accepted the emperor's brother,
After Zhu Youxiao issued the abdication edict, he knew that he was destined to be the new emperor, so he could no longer kneel and kowtow.
But if not kneeling down would appear to be disrespecting the imperial power, it would be appropriate to perform a "military salute" in comparison. After all, their ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang, as the "Taizu Gao Emperor" who founded the Ming Dynasty, conquered the world on horseback.
Rely on your strength to drive the arrogant Mongols back to the grassland!
"Haha, my brother, come up and sit on this dragon chair. You will be my new emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and you will rule the world from now on!" Ming Xi Zong Zhu Youxiao stood up with his arms around the waist of Queen Zhang Yan, and walked towards the bottom of the stairs.
Zhu Youjian, the king of Xin with an impulsive but troubled face, beckoned: "Come, the country cannot live without a king for a day!"
