Chapter 17 Emperor, Crown Prince, Crown Prince

In the first month of the seventeenth year of Hongwu, Lao Zhu couldn't wait to start some actions.

As one of the three front halls in the imperial city, the Jinshen Hall is where the emperor changes his court uniform and appoints the queen and crown prince. The emperor is also congratulated in this hall. The Jinshen Hall is a place where the emperor reminds the emperor to strengthen his self-cultivation.

meaning.

All civil and military officials were on duty, watching the young man wearing a crown walking slowly towards him.

This is the grandson, who will soon become the grandson of the emperor, the theoretical second heir to the throne of the Ming Dynasty.

This great grandson studied Confucianism, but was not close to Confucian scholars. He was fond of martial arts, and veteran generals on the battlefield often gave him lessons. His great grandson was tolerant and never punished palace officials for trivial matters. His great grandson...

Although there are very few officials who have come into contact with Taisun, there is no lack of attention to Taisun in recent years.

Before the death of the late empress, the grandson was raised by the empress in Kunning Palace. Although the emperor doted on the grandson, it is said that the emperor has no appetite now that the grandson does not serve meals. Going in and out of the palace is a common occurrence for the grandson.

"Sun Chen pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor, my grandfather. Long live my grandfather. Long live your Majesty."

Lao Zhu nodded happily, and then said, "Declare the decree."

Zhao Mao, the Minister of Rites, received the decree that Lao Zhu had prepared, faced the ministers who had already knelt down, and said, "I will carry out the emperor's edict according to heaven."

"My eldest grandson, Zhu Xiongying, is the son of the Crown Prince and the direct heir of the clan..."

After all, this step has been reached. Zhu Xiongying, who was ten years old, was officially appointed as the emperor's grandson, and was awarded a gold-plated book and a silver seal.

Although some ministers may be muttering in their hearts, theoretically the emperor's grandson is the second heir to the throne. But if the emperor dies today, there may be some changes. After all, there will definitely be a master of the Sixth Palace by then, and maybe there will be another

Chance……

Zhu Xiongying knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times, then received the order to thank him, and received the canonization edict and the gold book and silver seal.

"I will pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Emperor Grandson!"

The sound of roaring mountains and tsunami came, and hundreds of civil and military officials paid homage.

Zhu Xiongying suddenly felt a tingling sensation going straight to Tianling Gai. Could this be the pleasure brought by power?

Lao Zhu looked at it with a smile, and Zhu Biao was also quite pleased. The father and son were also sighing that Ying'er had grown up.

Returning to the East Palace, Zhu Yunwen took Zhu Yunxi, Zhu Xi, and Zhu Yue, "My younger brother (my younger sister) is here to see His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun."

Zhu Xiongying smiled and nodded, and then said, "Get up, everyone, and don't see anyone outside."

Zhu Yunwen didn't dare to stay out of the public eye. In fact, he was a little embarrassed about his identity now. He always felt that he also had a chance to become the legitimate son. As long as his father ascended the throne, his mother and concubine would most likely become the queen. By then, Zhu Yunwen could also be

legitimate son.

But Zhu Yunwen also knew that the person in front of him was the emperor's brother, and his emperor's brother was the real eldest son and grandson. The emperor's brother had been favored by the emperor's grandfather and grandmother since he was a child, and had been living in Kunning Palace before. Zhu Yunwen could occasionally

He met his imperial grandfather, but he did not dare to go to Fengtian Palace and Wuying Palace without an edict, but his imperial brother wanted to go there.

Qianqing Palace, I dare not even think about it, it is the palace of the emperor's grandfather. Now, only three people can go there. Even the prince cannot stay there. However, today's emperor's grandson is occasionally

Leave.

The imperial brother has always been surrounded by his companions, famous Confucian scholars, and nobles who have made great achievements to teach them the art of war. But he, Zhu Yunwen, went to the main hall to study like other imperial uncles and sons of nobles.

"Brother Royal!"

"Brother Royal!"

Zhu Xi and Zhu Yue ran over happily, and Zhu Yunxi also rushed over. They were brought up by the emperor's brother and were close to him.

Lu is a bit sour and may have to give up some unrealistic fantasies. No, why is it unrealistic?

If she becomes the queen one day, Yunwen of this palace will be the legitimate son. As long as the emperor's grandson falls, that position will belong to Yunwen. After all, this is just the emperor's grandson, not the crown prince!

Is Yun Wen of this palace noble as a prince? How can he be as noble as the Nine-Fifth Emperor?!

What's more, Yunwen is not a sibling brother after all. Even if he is named a prince in the future, it will not be a good place for him. The real good place must be reserved for his real brother Zhu Yunxi!

Why, why can't I help Yun Wen fight for that position? The decision has not been finalized yet?!

Mrs. Lu suddenly showed a kind smile. Now she is just a concubine. The most important thing is that Mrs. Lu understands that the emperor only has one grandson in his eyes. If he really wants to plan something, he must keep a low profile now so that no one can notice it. Wait until the prince ascends the throne.

!

Zhu Xiongying was established as the emperor's grandson, but it actually didn't seem to have much impact.

Today, the emperor is in his prime, and the energetic emperor does not look like someone who is almost sixty years old. He does not feel tired when dealing with government affairs, and there is no delay in branching out. Last year, he had his twenty-second son and his twenty-third son.

It's almost here.

"Oh, I'm already ten years old, and my imperial uncle hasn't weaned himself yet." Zhu Xiongying sighed, feeling a little embarrassed, "That's how seniority differs. According to this trend, maybe I will give birth to a son in the future.

He wants to learn how to speak with his uncle."

It seems that Lao Zhu lived to be seventy years old?

Suddenly Zhu Xiongying became worried. No one wanted to miss that position. But over the years, Zhu Xiongying had long been reluctant to let go of these family ties.

While Zhu Xiongying was still teasing his younger brothers and sisters, Lao Zhu, who was reviewing the memorial, asked, "Biao'er, Can Yuan is harassing me, we are going to give Song Sheng a chance."

Zhu Biao was not surprised. Although the world seemed peaceful and the Ming Dynasty was getting stronger, there were still some minor disturbances. Now the Northern Yuan Dynasty is still harassing the borders, and there are still some remnants. As for the southwest, the Western Regions are also restless, and there are also some along the coast.

Some Japanese pirates made trouble.

Zhu Biao nodded, and then said, "Song Sheng went out to control Liangzhou to defend against the Northern Yuan and the Western Fan. It is useful. But according to Erchen's wishes, this is just a trivial matter. Let's train the troops first, and we will be free in two years.

It’s time to clean up those remnants.”

Lao Zhu was even more pleased. Today, the southwest is not stable. There is a separatist force of the Duan family in Dali, western Yunnan. The Duan family has been in Dali for hundreds of years and is quite popular among the people. And in some places, the chieftains in the northwest and southwest may also rebel.

.

In order to pacify Yunnan and Guizhou, he ordered Marquis Yingchuan to be the general to conquer the south, Lan Yu and Mu Ying to be deputy generals, and he would lead 300,000 infantry and cavalry to conquer Yunnan and Guizhou.

Now that it is coming to an end, the Yunnan-Guizhou region will also become a little more stable, and the world of Ming Dynasty will be more stable.

"Yes, when Yunnan and Guizhou are conquered, it will be the north." Lao Zhu looked at Zhu Biao and asked, "Biao'er, who do you want to order to lead the army then?"

Zhu Biao pondered for a moment and said, "Cousin or Song Guogong, give Lan Yu a chance to join the army when the time comes. The three boys from the Chang family are unreliable, and Ying'er can't rely on Lan Yu in the future."

Lao Zhu smiled and said nothing. The Chang family is indeed a bit unreliable now. But Lan Yu, the general, was not reserved for the grandson of the emperor, but for the crown prince!

While the father and son were still discussing, Zhu Xiongying entered the palace carrying a food box and was very helpless, "Grandpa Emperor, it's such an hour now? What if my grandson doesn't come and he's hungry again?"

Lao Zhu quickly stood up and said cheerfully, "We didn't pass the meal around. Don't we know that our grandson won't starve us? Come, come, come, eat, eat!"

While eating sesame cakes, Lao Zhu picked up his wine glass and took a sip, "Ying'er, your father and I were talking about the war. In a few years, do you want to go to the Northland?"

"Really?" Zhu Xiongying was stunned, and then became excited, "The emperor's grandfather conquered the world and restored my Han family's land. My grandson should go to the north. Can Yuan really hates it. My grandson should also learn from Huo Huo's horse and seal the wolf's home.

Xu!"

"Bah!" Lao Zhu was unhappy and said, "Who wants you to imitate Huo Qubing?! Our grandson is the grandson of the emperor, so he should know the soldiers. We have your father and me in the capital. You should work harder in the past two years and look around more.

Look. When we get old, you won’t be able to walk around."

Zhu Biao didn't speak, just ate his meal quietly.

Throughout the ages, there has never been a prince with such a stable status as him, and the East Palace team is also formidable. But now, we really need to consider cultivating the grandson's team.

The contract status has been changed. Please add it to your collection and recommend it.
