Chapter 40 Those who engage in politics have dirty hearts!

After completing the task of knocking the blue jade, Zhu Xiongying naturally returned to the palace. He still had a lot of things to do and a lot of things to be busy with.

During dinner, Zhu Biao also came to Qianqing Palace, "Father, Lan Yu has returned to Beijing and asked Yunxi to welcome him."

"Biao'er, we know that Lan Yu is arrogant and you don't like it. We don't have to give him dignity, but we should give dignity to those soldiers." Lao Zhu said, "This time Yuerhai won a big victory, Ningyuan Hou Wangbi came up with a clever plan. Perform miraculous feats."

Zhu Biao could only smile. Lan Yu was indeed his absolute confidant. But some of the things Lan Yu did this time made Zhu Biao inevitably angry and annoyed.

Zhu Biao handed over the note, which was naturally the civil and military officials he planned to retain in the court and appoint. Although some civil and military officials would go with Lao Zhu to establish the capital in Peiping, there was no shortage of people in the court.

Lao Zhu watched carefully and discussed with Zhu Biao from time to time. The list has not been completely finalized, but it is generally determined, and the variables will not be too big. But soon, discussions began again about the subjects of the Prince's East Palace. , as well as the issue of the selection of the concubine.

The Xu family of the Prince of Zhongshan had a suitable legitimate daughter, and the legitimate daughter of Fu Youde, Duke of Ying was also more suitable. Zhu Biao disliked that the daughter of Duke Wu Zhen of Hai was a little too old. Lao Zhu felt that the three daughters of Tang He were concubines and were not worthy. Go to his grandson.

Zhu Xiongying has no say in his marriage, he just listens with peace of mind. This is a political marriage.

The smiling Zhu Xiongying suddenly said, "Grandpa Huang, our Ming Dynasty does not limit the number of three wives, nine concubines, twenty-seventh wives, and eighty-one royal wives. There will definitely be many concubines in the future after our grandson. But as a father, shouldn't he too?" Is she a talent show girl?"

The Third Madam and the Ninth Concubine were established according to the etiquette and laws of the Zhou Dynasty. They were second only to the Queen and above the Ninth Concubine. In fact, there were some changes throughout the dynasties.

Zhu Biao angrily threw the memorial at Zhu Xiongying, but Zhu Xiongying naturally dodged it with a smile.

Lao Zhu's eyes lit up and he said, "Biao'er, your heirs are still too thin! Let me tell you, there are too few people in your bedroom! You father and son both have the same virtues, and we Ying'er don't like it. The maid who warms the bed? We asked Concubine Guo Ning to choose the maid for you as you said."

"Wait, wait, the kidney water is not stable yet." Zhu Xiongying said directly without fear of embarrassment, "My grandson thinks, sex is like a bone scraper, and my grandson should not be greedy for pleasure when he is young."

Zhu Biao rolled his eyes at Zhu Xiongying, and then got down to business, "The Chang family is reliable, but now that Lan Yu is gaining momentum, it should be checked and balanced. Father, or the Zhongshan Palace."

Zhu Xiongying emphasized again, "Father, this generational hierarchy is in chaos, which is unreasonable."

Lao Zhu said calmly, "You don't have to worry about this matter. Your father and I have taken care of it, and you can just wait for the concubine to enter the palace with peace of mind."

Politics are all dirty. According to Lao Zhu, it seems that the etiquette system is at odds now, so just let the etiquette system make sense. The biggest problem now is naturally the Xu family, Zhu Di's wife

Speaking of Zhu Di, his whole family is now in Yingtian Mansion. Zhu Di has given up now and cannot return to his fiefdom, or in other words, he has to change his fiefdom.

After lingering in Qianqing Palace for a while, Zhu Xiongying was ready to return to the East Palace. He had other things to do.

Wang Chengen looked at Zhu Xiongying and whispered, "Sir, His Highness Prince Yan sent someone to send a message and he wants to talk to me."

Zhu Xiongying was stunned for a moment, then said, "Okay, where is the fourth uncle now?"

King Yan Zhu Di is currently in the imperial city and cannot leave. King Yan's entire family is now in Yingtian Mansion. It is estimated that King Yan must have no owner at this time. After all, it is very likely that the fiefdom cannot be returned. After tasting the feudal king

After enjoying the fun and rights, it was very frustrating to be locked up in Yingtian Mansion as a prince.

Zhu Xiongying walked slowly towards Fengxian Hall, took the incense, lit it, and respectfully offered incense to the ancestors of the old Zhu family.

Zhu Di stared at the ancestral tablet and said slowly, "Eldest nephew, I heard that it was my nephew who suggested moving the capital to Yandi?"

"My fourth uncle thinks highly of me." Zhu Xiongying said cheerfully, "Grandpa Huang and my father only chose a few places to move the capital, and there were very few options."

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Xiongying and said, "My nephew, the land of Yan is so depressed."

"Once the capital is moved, the land of Yan will soon become prosperous." Zhu Xiongying looked at Zhu Di and said with a smile, "My nephew wants to learn from Wei Huo in the future. When Liaodong is newly restored, my nephew still has to take care of it."

At this time, Zhu Di said again, "Eldest nephew, my fourth uncle heard that you don't like the princes Jingbian."

"You can't say that, but my nephew doesn't like that the vassal king has too much power." Zhu Xiongying said slowly, "Now the vassal king has three guards and commanders, two guards, and one ceremonial guard, which is about

There are more than 10,000 people. Not to mention that there is a self-contained system of officials and subordinates in the palace, it is not appropriate to control the generals and interfere with local affairs during war."

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Xiongying and said, "Eldest nephew, neither your grandpa nor your father knows how to reduce the vassal status."

"That's not necessarily the case!" Zhu Xiongying said bluntly, "Fourth uncle, don't talk to me anymore. If my nephew can talk to me one day, he will definitely inherit the lineage of King Yan. But fourth uncle, if fourth uncle can

If you tell me, I'm afraid my nephew's lineage will be extinct."

Zhu Di was stunned and a little nervous, "Nephew, don't talk nonsense!"

Zhu Xiongying smiled and shook his head and said, "Fourth uncle wants to seize the vassal state. There are plenty of places. If it's not Yandi, it's not Yandi. Fourth uncle, although we are relatives, it's just a matter of court. Fourth uncle should not ask for more."

Ask, the feudal king is the feudal king after all, right?"

Zhu Xiongying didn't want to say anything anymore. Sometimes, Tianjia was ruthless.

Zhu Di dare not think about the supreme position now, but his happiness as a vassal king in Peiping is far greater than that of the current King of Yan. For his own interests, he will definitely have to fight for it.

Just when Zhu Xiongying was about to leave, Zhu Di suddenly said, "Your fourth aunt is sick, did you know?"

Zhu Xiongying stopped and said, "I just learned that if my fourth uncle blames me, just blame me."

After saying this, Zhu Xiongying turned around and left.

Princess Yan was originally in good health, but she had been suffering from minor ailments since she arrived at Yingtian Mansion. Lao Zhu was very concerned about his fourth daughter-in-law and specially sent an imperial doctor to take good care of her.

It's just that Princess Yan's condition has not improved, and it may be necessary to wait until the candidate for the grandson concubine is confirmed before Princess Yan's fate can be determined.

Now that Lao Zhu is interested in the second daughter of the Prince of Zhongshan, it is not that he wants to take advantage of Xu Da and increase his seniority.

The main ones are Zhu Xiongying, the Chang family, and Lan Yu. They naturally hope that Zhu Xiongying will take over. If it doesn't work, then there is Zhu Yunxi. As long as it is not Zhu Yunzhen, it will be fine. After all, Lan Yu is loyal to Zhu Biao, and Lao Zhu still hopes to give him

The emperor's grandson gave more assurances that he was considering his own affairs.

As for whether the second daughter of the Prince of Zhongshan can become the concubine, the only obstacle is the current Princess Yan.

Zhu Xiongying walked very resolutely, and there was no sloppiness. He probably knew a little bit about some things, and he also knew very well that he had nothing to do about some things and could not really make the decision himself.

After the death of King Zhu Di of Yan, Zhu Yunwen's whereabouts were said to be unknown.

Zhu Yunxi was demoted to the title of Prince of Guangze, and Zhu Biao's fourth son, Zhu Yunxi, was demoted to the title of King Huai'en. Immediately, the two brothers were deposed as commoners by Zhu Di for being unable to assist his brother, and were imprisoned in Fengyang, Anhui. They died violently one after another.

.

Zhu Biao's youngest son was conferred the title of King Ouning and was burned to death in a fire.

Zhu Yunwen's youngest son was imprisoned in Fengyang for more than fifty years. After he was freed, he no longer knew the difference between a beast and a horse.

After Zhu Di ascended the throne, for the needs of his own rule, he brutally persecuted Zhu Biao's disciples and the descendants of Emperor Jianwen; at the same time, he abolished the imperial title of Emperor Jianwen and Zhu Biao's imperial title and temple name, and restored the title of Zhu Biao's mausoleum as the mausoleum of Prince Yiwen.

Trying to erase all historical traces of Emperor Jianwen's rule.

The so-called imprisonment in Fengyang refers to the high wall of Fengyang, which is a prison specifically for the royal family.

It's useless to say that Zhu Di was brought up by his imperial brother Zhu Biao, because politics is the dirtiest thing! It's difficult for brothers and sisters to respect each other when it comes to their own interests, not to mention that it's about the supreme throne.

Zhu Xiongying, who strode away now, really does not regard Zhu Di as a big threat. As long as he does not seek death, there is no need to worry about many things. Moreover, some history has also been changed by Zhu Xiongying.

For example, Daoyan Yao Guangxiao, who is neither a monk nor a Taoist, has been chanting sutras and chanting Buddha for the princess at Tianjie Temple.
