Chapter 110 Ascension to the Palace
Chapter 112 Ascension to the Palace
Zhu Xiongying is not in a hurry to send troops immediately. He still needs to rest and recuperate, and there are still many things to do. The inevitable thing is to continue writing letters home and send them to Hui Tianfu as quickly as possible.
Zhu Xi ran over happily and said, "Xiongying, how about I take you hunting?"
"I'm going out of the country soon, and I'm going to hunt yellow sheep then." Zhu Xiongying said happily, "I don't like ordinary prey now. I still have to deal with some military affairs these days. I don't dare to delay these things. If
Let's go hunting."
Zhu Xi said casually, "I usually go out hunting. I just want to amuse you. I don't care about hunting."
Zhu Xiongying thought for a while and said, "After noon, the second uncle, the third uncle and the fourth uncle will all come over. I want to ascend to the palace."
Zhu Xi felt a little embarrassed for a moment, but he still said, "Xiongying, if we really want to be promoted to the palace, we shouldn't come."
The reason why I say this must be because Lao Zhu has set the rules a long time ago. If the prince returns to Yingtian Mansion, he is not allowed to participate in banquets and the like. He can only wait in the side hall. This is to avoid the prince
Communicate with courtiers.
And now that Zhu Xiongying wants to be officially promoted to the palace, he will naturally accept the worship of officials from the Beiping Mansion as the emperor's grandson. These matters are the authority of the emperor's grandson, and the prince does not have such qualifications.
Zhu Xiongying smiled and said, "It would be better for my second uncle to be with my third uncle and my fourth uncle. I have decided on this matter."
After saying this, Zhu Xiongying said to He Zhongxian, "You ask someone to prepare. After noon, I will ascend the palace. Those civil and military officials are asking for an audience outside the palace. It's time to meet them."
This is also true. After Zhu Xiongying moved into Da Nei, he went to Prince Yan's Mansion and wandered around Taiye Pond. But these things also need to be prepared in advance, especially accepting the visit of local officials, which is even more serious and serious.
Formal.
Li Wenzhong also came in a hurry. He actually led the defense work of the palace like Chang Mao. Naturally, he came this time because the grandson was going to be promoted to the palace. This time, in addition to the local officials from Peking, military generals also needed to come to pay homage.
Zhu Xiongying looked at Li Wenzhong and said with a smile, "My cousin has arranged the matter of military escorts. The court also has rules and regulations. It's just that this time, I want to ask my second uncle and the others to come too."
Li Wenzhong was stunned for a moment and said hurriedly, "Your Highness, I'm afraid there is something wrong with this move."
Zhu Feng and the others are also Li Wenzhong's cousins, and he played with them when they were children. However, in Li Wenzhong's view, Zhu Fang and the others are already the vassal kings of the vassal, and they cannot have more contact with the court, let alone now.
What about when there are military commanders?
In Li Wenzhong's view, the other cousins are naturally cousins. But speaking of it, Li Wenzhong will only be loyal to his uncle, the emperor, the prince's cousin, and will only willingly recognize Zhu Xiongying's legal status as his nephew.
Status.
Zhu Xiongying laughed and said, "Cousin, I know what's going on, so you just have to make arrangements here."
Since Zhu Xiongying said so, Li Wenzhong naturally has no objection. The emperor's grandson has been a decisive person since he was a child, and he knows all the big and small things well.
He Zhongxian immediately went to Prince Yan's Mansion to convey the order, leaving Zhu Di stunned for a while.
Xu Yihua hurriedly got the court clothes and said, "Your Majesty, according to etiquette, you shouldn't go to such an occasion."
"I also know this, but I can't make the decision." Zhu Di handed the decree to Xu Yihua and said, "I can only obey the prince's instructions. Really speaking, if I don't go, there is no way that Xiongying will do it."
I have been given an imperial edict."
Xu Yihua was stunned for a moment and said, "That's not the case. My father shouldn't be like that."
Zhu Di became happy and motioned to Xu Yihua to take out the previous imperial edict, "Look at this imperial edict. My father's calligraphy is iron painted with silver hooks, and my brother's calligraphy is graceful and generous. Look at these words again. They are even better than my father's calligraphy."
Whose can it be?"
Looking at the imperial edict that came down a few days ago, Xu Yihua also fell silent. The crown prince and the emperor's grandson couldn't say "I" on the surface, but they seemed to be very comfortable writing "I" in the imperial edict, which can explain a lot.
Question.
It is possible to carry a few blank imperial edicts with you. At worst, it will be the same if you issue an imperial edict and ask Yingtian Mansion to keep a file. Now at the beginning of the founding of the country, and the power of the civil service system is not strong enough, although the imperial edict is issued
There are procedures for issuing orders, but they are not as strict as in the middle and late Ming Dynasty in history, and there is no such thing as the emperor's imperial edict being blocked by civil servants.
Zhang Changping waited on Zhu Xiongying to take a bath and change into the imperial robe. Since it was a formal promotion to the palace, he naturally had to change into the imperial robe. Even if Zhu Xiongying went on an expedition, the emperor's grandson's imperial robe, court uniform and regular uniform were all the same.
He has a lot of luggage. Even the utensils he usually uses for eating and drinking are brought with him.
After putting on the imperial robe, Zhu Xiongying asked casually, "Is there anyone else in the family?"
Zhang Changping said, "In the early years, my family was poor and suffered from war disasters. If it weren't for Your Majesty's mercy, most of my slaves would be dead bones beside the ditch. It was only those who survived in the past few years that I found out after many searches that there was a nephew in the family.
."
Zhu Xiongying was silent for a moment and said, "That sounds like my grandfather. Where is your nephew now?"
Zhang Changping said immediately, with a little pride, "My nephew is also useless. Your Majesty sent all the money and food he gave to my slave back, so that he could buy a house and land in his hometown and live in his hometown."
Looking at Zhang Changping, Zhu Xiongying said, "I'm afraid you are already over 40 years old. I decided to take over for your nephew. If he is not useful, forget it. Your grand-nephew should also be promoted. You are the head of our family. When you are here,
Naturally, we care more about your nephew. You are gone and he is useless. How much time can we have to take care of him?"
Zhang Changping immediately knelt down and said hurriedly, "Your Majesty, your Majesty has rewarded him with a lot of property over the years, enough to make him a rich man in his hometown!"

"Rich man?" Zhu Xiongying said with hatred, "You are short-sighted. You are our retainer, different from ordinary servants. Find a family background for your grand nephew, so that he can have an official career in the future. I am thinking of your nephew.
If my son is successful and has several heirs, I will get one for you so that he can inherit your legacy."
Hearing what Zhu Xiongying said, Zhang Changping kowtowed excitedly, "I thank Your Highness for your grace, but I have nothing to repay..."
"Well, this is what should be given to you." Zhu Xiongying smiled and said, "Your nephew is coming to Beijing, so I will give you some care for your sake. I can regard your grandnephew who inherits your incense as one of my own.
Send him to a guardhouse. How successful he will be depends on his luck."
Zhang Changping, who was choked with sobs, continued to kowtow. His Highness Taisun's grace was really too great.
If a grandnephew is allowed to inherit the incense, he is no longer a grandnephew, but his own grandson. The guard he goes to is naturally a personal guard. They are all hereditary, which means that there is a guarantee.
Even for the sake of his own face, it is impossible to get an official position. Someone from the old Zhang family will be able to become an official.
Zhu Xiongying can naturally understand Zhang Changping's excitement. Xianghuo, this is in the bones of the Chinese people. Even though Zhang Changping has a nephew now, it seems that there is a successor to the old Zhang family. But that is just a nephew, not his son, Xianghuo
It's not his turn either.
But if a child is adopted, it means that his family has a legacy, and he will not be afraid of losing the incense even if it is a hundred years later.
This is a great grace, and Zhang Changping believes that his nephew will definitely be happy with it.
It is normal for a large family to have some adoptions. It would be better if the child can have the same origin.
Arranging these things is completely normal for Zhu Xiongying.
The next thing to do is to ascend to the palace to accept the worship of hundreds of officials, and to handle military affairs. After all, we are now in Beiping Mansion, and we are about to leave the country, which means that we will soon go to the battlefield. There are many things
Be prepared.
The King of Qin, the King of Jin and the King of Yan took the lead, and Duke Zheng, Cao Guogong, Song Guogong, Ying Guogong and others were also there. Those who didn't know better thought this was the imperial city of Yingtian Mansion. This configuration was no less than a formal early dynasty.
Zhu Di whispered, "I heard some time ago that Xiongying felt that the formation of civil and military officials during the early dynasty was messy. He was not happy with it. My father and brother ordered Xiongying to organize it into regular court rituals."
Zhu Xi rolled his eyes at Zhu Di unhappily and said, "Fourth brother, don't say that I didn't remind you. You are a vassal prince who is enfeoffed outside. Don't pay too much attention to things in the court. Be your vassal king for nothing else.
All strong!"
Zhu Di immediately stopped his activities. He was afraid of his eldest brother and did not dare to stab him in front of his second and third brothers. He had no choice but to make him the fourth child.
The grandson's throne has been moved to the main hall, and the imperial guards, standard-bearing guards, including the honor guards, etc., are also all dressed in bright clothes and have a royal look.
Three whips sounded, and Zhu Xi led hundreds of officials into the palace.
Chang Mao immediately left the class and sang the salute loudly, "Blessings."
Zhu Xiang and others immediately paid homage, but Zhu Xiongying just said calmly, "Xing."
Looking at the heroic young man sitting on the throne, the local officials of Yingtian Mansion did not dare to raise their heads. How could they dare to observe the grandson's appearance. As for Zhu Fang and others, every move was in compliance with the etiquette, and they knelt down to worship their nephew.
Well, who let the nephew be the grandson of the emperor? There is nothing to feel unbalanced.
In front of my father, I am a minister, in front of my brother, I am a minister. In front of my nephew, I am actually a minister. Everyone has known this for a long time and accepted this unchangeable fact.
After the ceremony, Zhu Xiongying spoke slowly, "I don't want to disturb the place when I go on an expedition. It's just that Beiping Prefecture is different. When the imperial court goes to Mobei, it should be based on Beiping Prefecture. The civil and military officials should give top priority to state affairs. If there is any
Negligence is unacceptable under the national law!"
All the officials immediately knelt down and said respectfully, "I respectfully obey the instructions of His Highness the Emperor Taisun!"
