Chapter 301 Mourning

For the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty, waking up early was not a special treatment at all, and it was something they were used to.

Don’t complain about being tired. Those who are qualified to attend court are important officials. Countless people don’t have any chance to endure this hardship. It is even more important to go to court honestly and do your own work well.

When the civil and military officials lined up to enter Fengtian Hall, they suddenly saw a majestic figure walking on the dragon and tiger steps. Although the man's hair was gray, his powerful aura made the civil and military officials frightened and frightened.

Don’t ask where I went today. Everyone knows it. At this time, it is the most important thing to pretend to be confused, otherwise it will offend two generations of emperors.

What's more, the emperors have a tacit understanding. If you don't open your eyes at this time, the Ministry of Justice can move in at any time. Recently, it is building roads and water conservancy. Not to mention that the Ministry of Justice's prison is relatively empty, there are not many people in the prefectures and counties below, and there are a shortage of labor reform criminals.

Lao Zhu is too lazy to say anything, so there is no need to explain it to the people below. I guess everyone is used to these things.

When he had not abdicated, he became 'ill' from time to time, either the prince or the grandson was in charge of the court. Now he has changed his roles a little, and it is nothing to help his grandson take over a class. Anyway, Lao Zhu knows the major affairs of the court and is not afraid of difficulties.

There is no need to worry about anything in the court, naturally it is because the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was very "generous" about the government affairs of the court. There is no need to be surprised if the emperor asked the prince and the grandson to govern the government in the court. It is normal for the emperor to let the emperor know about the government affairs.

Now the Supreme Emperor who has been threatening his life is coming to court. As long as everyone knows what the emperor is doing, there is no need to ask questions in detail.

At the foot of Zhongshan, there seems to be not much military martial law, etc., but many people know that this is absolutely safe here at this time.

Because this is the imperial tomb area, not to mention Lao Zhu's Xiaoling Mausoleum, but Emperor Xiaokang's Dongling Mausoleum is also here, so there are naturally some army guarding the tombs. These armies are generally the most loyal.

What's more, at this time, many families of civil and military ministers came, and they were inevitably accompanied by some relatives, etc.

Princess Kaiping passed away and she was about to be buried with Prince Kaiping.

Feng Cheng is quite envious. Chang Yuchun was naturally buried with him. Being able to bury Zhongshan is the glory of a minister after his death. Although his father Feng Guoyong was a great contribution, he was not qualified to bury him here.

Although Chang Yuchun's tomb looks small, the stone carvings such as Shi Wengzhong, Shi Shi Lion and Shi Sheep next to the Shinto can illustrate their status. The mighty and powerful stone carvings of generals with both hands and a helmet and armor also illustrate Chang Yuchun's status and achievements.

Zhu Yue glanced at the husband who was rushing to come and asked in a low voice, "Are everything done over there?"

"Well, everything is done." Feng Cheng lowered his voice and then asked in a low voice, "We really want to wear mourning clothes?"

Zhu Yue glared at her and looked a little angry, "You are the marquis, can't you give our grandmother a mourning woman?"

Feng Cheng had no choice but to explain, "We, Your Majesty, let us be wary of things, we can't remove the armor. If we wear mourning now, we must impeach some people, and we may also bump into our grandmother!"

Zhu Yue thought for a while and then said, "Then you tie the hemp rope around your waist."

Feng Cheng suddenly felt something was wrong and asked, "Why are you wearing these?"

Zhu Yue was wearing a princess suit, and her dress was too strong. She could not actually wear it like this in such an occasion.

"Qi'er and Lin'er were picked up by the emperor's sister-in-law." Zhu Yue lowered her voice and said in a low voice, "You have some eyesight, you can do whatever your emperor's brother is."

While they were chatting, many people were actually looking and discussing privately. This time, the people who came to pay their respects, naturally needless to say, the heads of the family must have sent their descendants and juniors. Some families who were still alive who founded the country also arrived at this time.

Including some civil officials, family members were also sent at this time.

Everyone knows what Zhu Yue is. This is the "Princess". He and the eldest princess Zhu Xi, who is far away in Yunnan, are both the younger sisters of today and are highly favored.

Zhu Yunxiu was wearing a prince's crown robe and stood by the road with a solemn expression. Next to him was the Sang family standing. Even though Sang family was a bit arrogant, he did not dare to be careless at this time. Even if he was pregnant now, what should come is still coming, so don't say anything to collide, this does not exist.

After all, it is a funeral, so naturally I need to be solemn at this time. Even if many people come here this time, they just want to show off or not bring any trouble to their homes.

After all, he was the emperor's grandmother. Although he didn't seem to have a grand ceremony, it was said that it was just the meaning of Princess Kaiping. If the emperor really didn't care, it would definitely be fake. The emperor couldn't remember who did not come to pay his respects and who were not sad enough.

Just as everyone was still standing, a carriage that looked relatively low-key slowly came over, and there were also some guards who looked relatively low-key.

Wang Chengen, who was pale and beardless, trotted and lifted the curtain. Zhu Yunyou, wearing the emperor's crown garment, walked out of the carriage, reached out to help Xu Miaoqing down, and picked up the crown prince.

"I'm here to pay homage to Your Majesty!"

"My minister Wu Yinghou Prince pays homage to Your Majesty."

"Greetings to the Crown Prince, Your Highness Qianqiu!"

"I wish you to meet the Queen, Your Highness Qianqiu!"

This can be regarded as the most noble family in the Ming Dynasty today. When they came forward, there were naturally a large number of voices of kneeling and paying homage.

Zhu Yunyou had a serious expression and said, "Today is my grandmother's burial, let's be calm."

At this time, Xu Miaoqing also spoke slowly, "Princess, Princess Wu, follow me."

After saying this, Xu Miaoqing led the little Zhu slowly forward. Sang, who was erect, looked proudly at Ma. He was Zhu Yunwen's wife, but Ma did not have such treatment. After all, he was an "outsider".

Xiao Xiaozhu reached out and pushed away the 'bead curtain' in front of her, a little puzzled, "Mother, son and father."

Xiao Xiao Zhu is very smart and usually calls her parents. However, once she wears her more formal clothes, she will be more formal. However, she is also a child of the old Zhu family, and no matter how formal she is, she will not be much formal.

Old Zhu usually doesn't like to call himself "I". Words like "I" and "I" appear from time to time in the imperial edict. Zhu Yunyou is a little better, and he basically uses "I" in the imperial edict, but it is just an imperial edict.

Zhu Yue helped Sang come over and heard Xu Miaoqing's voice, "You can follow your mother first and then go over to meet your cousin and cousin, and then go find your father."

Zhu Yue and the others were still quite happy, although today Zi was basically good for younger brothers and sisters. But everyone could see that today Zi was always very clear about the relationship between relatives and alienation.

Zhu Yunwen and their wives and concubines came over to attend the funeral of their nominal grandmother. This was not because of their filial piety, but simply because they were shown to the emperor. Their performance might have some effect, but the emperor didn't seem to care much.

Of course, if they dare not come, even if the emperor doesn't say anything, "Settle the accounts after the autumn" is probably indispensable.

Sang also knew very well that the emperor's brother she always regarded was today, and Zhu Yunwen was not her brother. She was so respectful to Zhu Yue, but when she saw Zhu Yunwen's princess Ma, her nose was not the nose, eyes were not the eyes.

Of course, although Ma is the princess, the woman from this civil servant family is also quite responsible and polite. Sang is vulgar. Ma does not care about her and dares not care about her. Who told her husband to be King Xu, and Sang's husband is the most noble prince of the Ming Dynasty today, King Wu.

Zhu Yunyou didn't care about these "palace fights". He just walked in front with a serious expression, and Zhu Yunyou immediately followed him obediently. Zhu Yunwen was still very smart and immediately took Zhu Yunyou and Zhu Yunxi to follow him. After all, Chang Lan was their nominal grandmother.

In fact, this time some of Zhu Yunyou's elders also sent their wives and children over. His uncles also wanted to show off, in name, they were mourning the biological mother of the emperor's sister-in-law Chang, not for the sake of the current emperor.

After all, you still need to do some superficial work. Even if you know what you know, you still need to do some superficial work at this time.

It must be decided. In fact, many people are talking about it privately these days, such as the specifications of Chang Lan's funeral, etiquette, etc.

Some people think that when the son is a child, they may be intimate, but think about it over the years, the emperor seems to have not been intimate with the Chang family, so it is hard to guarantee that the emperor will not be intimate. After all, there are many major events in the court. After all, Chang Lan is just a grandmother.

But now, the emperor not only came here in person, but also brought the queen and the crown prince. Even though it seemed that it was not a grand funeral, and he did not stop the spirit in Yingtian Mansion and let all officials pay tribute, but who dares to say that Chang Lan's funeral was not glorious enough? Even the queen's funeral might not be treated like this!

Zhu Yunyou just stood quietly by the road, looking into the distance with a solemn expression.

Xiaoxiao Zhu is here, and the little guy is bringing some of his cousins ​​and cousins, and Zhu Ruyi, who is a little unstable, is also standing with Xiaoxiao Zhu in her arms.

Slowly, a convoy appeared in the distance.

Zhu Yunyou slowly opened his pair, and Wang Chengen immediately took out a hemp rope from a plate covered with yellow cloth and tied it around Zhu Yunyou's waist. He took the white cloth and tied it to his forehead.

"His Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, no!"

Let the emperor wear mourning clothes, this is not possible!

But as soon as someone spoke out, he saw that when the eyes were cold today, he should not say anything at this time.

Zhu Yunyou looked at Zhu Yunyou and said, "Dress up well, let's go pick up grandmother!"

Zhu Yunxiu quickly put filial piety on his face and personally gave Xiao Xiao Zhu a good filial piety.

Zhu Yunyou held his son and daughter, and did not care about the careful gazes of the families of civil and military officials who were kneeling on the ground.

Walking onto the road and facing the direction of the coffin, Zhu Yunyou knelt down and shouted loudly, "The unfilial grandson Zhu Xiongying brings his son Zhu Wenyin and his daughter Zhu Ruyi, welcome grandmother!"

When Zhu Yunyeo knelt down and bowed down, Zhu Yunye couldn't help crying and howled loudly, "Grandma, the emperor is here to see you, you can also look at us, look at the elder brother!"
