Zhu Houzhao's words made the entire hall quiet.

Not only Emperor Hongzhi's eyes widened, he looked in disbelief.

The other ministers who had just pretended to be wandering and were not easy to interfere in the emperor's housework also looked at Zhu Houzhao as if they had seen a ghost.

Prince...

Why did you suddenly say such words?

But after doubting, everyone began to be ecstatic.

Very good to give birth!

Unless there are special reasons, the concubines who choose to enter the palace must be well raised.

Even if the prince does not mention this kind of request, the Ministry of Rites will definitely strictly control it.

What the ministers have always been worried about is that the current emperor's harem is only one queen, not even a concubine.

So much so many years have passed.

The problem of royal offspring is not their personal problem.

It is a matter of national stability and people's hearts.

After all, in this situation like today, there is only one son. If this big son feels uncomfortable, he doesn’t even have a substitute.

Just last time Zhu Houzhao ran to the frontier, all of them seemed to be facing a great enemy.

We even need to consider quickly selecting descendants from the royal family to stabilize the overall situation.

Now that His Majesty and the Queen have not had one more time, His Majesty is unwilling to let the newcomer enter the palace.

It is definitely not possible to expect His Majesty to practice a few more trumpets.

So isn't it natural to put your ideas on the prince?

And now he is dedicated and there is only one person in the harem, but the prince may not be so!

Hurry up and choose a concubine for the prince and choose some ladies who are good for childbirth, so that they can grow up in less than two years.

At that time, even if His Royal Highness secretly ran away, no matter what accident happened, the country would be afraid of no successors!

After Zhu Houzhao said these ideas, they soon broke into everyone's minds.

Seeing that Emperor Hongzhi did not speak for a moment, the chief assistant Liu Jian quickly agreed, "Since your highness has the type of lady you intend to do, this is a good thing."

"I think this matter can be in advance according to Your Highness's request."

The previous issue of choosing a lady was delayed before it was postponed.

It's just right now that I'm back early.

It was only last time that the Ministry of Rites opened. Now that it is necessary to work harder.

The Ministry of Rites has been busy with the rewards of this victory recently. In addition, the prince’s choice of concubines, it is estimated that it will be normal for everyone in the Ministry of Rites to work overtime during the next period.

Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Rites, opened his mouth and wanted to say something.

But thinking about what happened not long ago, I decided not to speak out.

It's better to choose a concubine as soon as possible.

After the prince’s wedding, he decided to stop doing things that caught people off guard.

Emperor Hongzhi also came back to his senses.

He looked at his son in surprise at first, as if he was wondering if his son had been beaten to death this time.

But looking at Zhu Houzhao's face full of joy and sincerity, this attitude is obviously not a false statement.

Liu Jian, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but speak first. Emperor Hongzhi took back his surprise and looked stern again.

But there was obviously no longer the cold feeling just now, it was the kind of pretending to be serious that Zhu Houzhao was familiar with.

From this point of view, Zhu Houzhao took the initiative to talk to his father about this, which really helped to restore some rigid father-son relationship.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Choose a lady is a major event in the country. I will agree on this matter with the Ministry of Rites."

"It was a last resort to postponement, but now if you want to advance, you have to discuss it again."

After saying that, he glanced at him.

"The Ministry of Rites has a lot of things recently, so you will find trouble at this time."

Although the words were a little thorny, it was obvious that the thorn was soft.

Zhu Houzhao quickly laughed.

The ministers present also nodded, and felt quite pleased with the performance of the prince's statement today.

Zhang Sheng said at the right time: "I should lead the members of the Ministry of Rites to prepare this matter as soon as possible."

"Let His Highness get married as soon as possible and give birth to the eldest grandson of the emperor for the dynasty."

The emperor's eldest grandson...

Emperor Hongzhi finally smiled in his eyes as he heard these three words.

"There have been many happy events in the country recently, and all the dukes have worked hard."

Everyone quickly replied that it was not hard.

Zhu Houzhao, who was standing beside him, was feeling much more relaxed and stood up with great force.

But because of the discomfort, I still had some small movements.

Emperor Hongzhi also saw his actions and thought that he had indeed taken action more severely that day.

This has to be maintained quickly before you can do other things.

Emperor Hongzhi's tone couldn't help but ease a lot, and he said warmly: "Don't stand, sit down," he said.

This temporarily sealed fatherly love was finally successfully awakened.

Zhu Houzhao saw the change in his father's attitude, and also saw that all the ministers expressed their opinions, praising his performance today.

I silently praised myself for the decision to drag my wounded body over today.

But when he heard his father let him sit down, he replied a little embarrassedly: "I'm fine if I'm standing and reply..."

Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly and couldn't help but glance behind him.

Zhu Houzhao quickly pretended to be pitiful.

"Don't be angry, my son refused to give him a throne."

"I have injuries on my son's body and I can't even sit in the sedan chair. I've just walked along the way."

"There are some sweats, and the wounds on the back are so painful and itchy."

"I really can't sit."

Emperor Hongzhi moved his mouth, and if he wanted to care, he still swallowed it.

You can't just teach the prince a lesson, but he used some trivial matters to please him.

Emperor Hongzhi said "yes".

"Since you are not happy, then go back and raise it."

"I will take care of my body as soon as possible, and there are still many things waiting for you to do later."

Zhu Houzhao Mingming felt that his father's attitude had eased a lot just now, but the words he said became cold again.

He curled his lips a little aggrievedly and bowed: "My son is leaving."

After saying that, he turned around and limped out.

Emperor Hongzhi saw him walking like this and hesitated: "If you really can't leave, you will be carried back."

This is not the first time that Heng and Shu have been carried back to the East Palace.

Zhu Houzhao grinned, thinking why was his father so difficult to coax this time?

He also disliked his walking posture for being ugly.

His posture is ugly, who is the fault?

But today is here to show goodwill, so we must not talk back to the usual way we used to.

Zhu Houzhao could only turn around and replied: "The son is not seriously injured. Thank you for your concern."

After saying that, he left the hall.

It was not until the figure disappeared that Emperor Hongzhi took back his eyes.

Li Dongyang next to Liu Jian said, "Your Highness, a young man's character, after His Majesty taught him this time, he obviously became much more calm."

"Yes, now that Your Highness is dragging his sick body to discuss the election of a concubine with His Majesty, it is enough to show that he has changed a lot." Xie Qian also nodded and agreed.

Emperor Hongzhi said a little embarrassedly: "Change is only temporary."

"I have to see how long it can last this time."

As he said that, he hesitated again.
Chapter completed!
