First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 618: Departure

But maybe it is because Chen Li is so stupid that he can live to this day. You must know that to Lao Zhu, Chen Youliang is the enemy of life and death, while Ming Yuzhen has no enmity because of the distance between them.

In the past, the two families even intended to form an alliance with each other, but Zhu Yuanzhang's power expanded too fast, and Ming Yuzhen died of illness in his prime, leaving behind women and children, so the two families lost contact.

But in any case, Ming Sheng is undoubtedly much safer than Chen Li, and it can be seen from the attitudes of the two of them that Ming Sheng is working hard to integrate into Daming, and wants to establish a foothold in the capital.

Although Chen Li received the title of Ming Dynasty, he still seemed out of place in every way. The mother of Ming Sheng, Mrs. Peng, was also the former Empress Dowager Peng, who had already sewed a dragon robe and phoenix suit for Lao Zhu and Empress Ma offer.

A little hesitation flashed in Zhu Biao's eyes as he looked at Mingsheng. Yesterday when he was flipping through the local memorials, he saw Liu Bowen's memorial and his son Liu Lian's letter to the court complaining about his father's illness.

Liu Bowen was weak and sick, and since he was ordered to enter Shu, he has worked hard, not only to disintegrate the influence of Mingxia, but also to assist Tang He to suppress the people of Yunnan, Guizhou and barbarians, and his arrangements for contact with the countries of Southeast Asia.

Unaccustomed to the environment and under such a heavy responsibility, Liu Bowen might not be able to hold on anymore, so he repeatedly asked the court to prepare officials to succeed him in advance, lest the turmoil in Shu would trigger another war in the southwest.

At present, Zhu Biao really lacks a strong frontier official who can act alone, and it would be too harsh to continue to squeeze Liu Bowen. Even Zhu Biao couldn't bear it, so he could only let him return to his hometown as soon as possible.

This was also his promise in the past, but it was unknown who had managed the land of Shu. This land was not only the land of abundance, but also together with Yunnan, Guizhou and other countries in Nanyang. Whether the Ming Dynasty could manage the land recovered from Ming Xia was of great significance.

"That's fine, and I can feel at ease. You should pack your bags when you return home. You will be leaving Beijing for a few months anyway."

"promise."

When the officials in front of the Fengtian Hall were separated, Zhu Biao also turned around and walked towards the Kunning Palace. The other side was also very lively, and all the concubines probably hurriedly wiped some tears before the emperor left so that the emperor could still remember. they.

Although the empress is the only queen in the harem, there are not no concubines who are favored. It is not because of the amount of affection that Emperor Zhu poured into it. Even when facing some objects, there will be a few that he especially likes to admire, let alone a group of young and beautiful women who are ostentatious. .

"His Royal Highness is here."

The moment Zhu Biao stepped into the Kunning Palace, he frowned slightly, but soon relaxed, and walked in as gently and slowly as usual, saluting to his superior father, queen and queen in a regular manner.

"The concubine has met His Highness the Crown Prince, His Highness will last forever."

The Kunning Palace is very big and there is no shortage of seats, but there are not many people who are qualified to sit on such occasions, and when the prince walked in, there were only two human beings who were still qualified to sit.

Chang Luohua and several concubines who gave birth to the prince for the Zhu family got up and led more concubines to bow their knees to the prince. Zhu Biao straightened his waist and waved his hands to them, and then walked naturally to the innermost place deliberately left behind. Sit down on the seat.

After sitting down, he glanced at the slightly irritable father and said with a smile: "Why don't you see my brothers and sisters?"

Concubine Li answered with a smile: "The princes are waiting for His Highness, the princesses are here, but just now the younger ones were crying endlessly, so the servants were led to the side hall to coax them first."

Concubine Zheng An suddenly opened her mouth and said: "Little princesses are young, it is normal to cry, not to mention that today is the day when the Holy Mother leaves the palace for a tour of the north, it is also filial for the princesses not to let the holy father and loving mother cry, why must the princess Hurry to the side hall."

Zhu Yuanzhang's brows frowned even tighter, while Empress Ma glanced at them indifferently, and then turned her attention to her grandson who was smeared with saliva in her arms.

In the past two years, she still wanted to take care of it, but as newcomers joined the palace every month, she didn't bother to take care of it anymore. Unless it was an urgent matter, the rest would be left to her daughter-in-law and several concubines who gave birth to a prince. .

Where there are many women, there is a lot of gossip, even if you don't fight and yell like a country shrew, but you can't stop the needles in the conversation between you and me, and you will get used to it after watching it for a long time, maybe in this place That's the only way for the palace to feel that he is still alive.

Naturally, it is not his turn to intervene in the affairs of his father's harem, so Zhu Biao looked at it with great interest, and Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help blowing his beard and glaring at his son, we have to stuff dozens more for you in the East Palace Women can't.

Let's see if you can still laugh when the time comes!

Concubine Li Shu had two princes under her knees, so it was easy to meet the concubines who were just in their early years. Soon, other concubines who disliked Concubine Li Shu also joined in, and the scene was very lively.

Zhu Biao was a little interested at the beginning. After all, there were few people in his East Palace, so Li Yan had a bit more temper.

But after seeing it, I got annoyed. It was just a few harsh words back and forth. Who are the father and son? They control the most intelligent and brilliant people in the world. Watching these women bickering is really torture. .

Fortunately, Jin Wang Zhu Xi and Wu Wang Zhu Huan, who was waiting to be sealed, led a group of princes in, and Princess Lin'an from the side hall also led the princesses back.

Except for a few people, the royal family of the Ming Dynasty has basically gathered, and they took turns wishing the emperor a smooth trip, so there is no need to mention the excitement of this morning.

After the family dinner at noon, Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma finally showed sincere smiles on their faces. The couple fought from nothing in the past, from south to north, but they were trapped in the capital after the founding of the country.

Lao Zhu was very willing, and he still had the opportunity to go on tour several times, but Empress Ma had been trapped in this city for nearly ten years, and Empress Ma had been in town for several years before the founding of the country.

The emperor Yijia set off from the palace in a mighty manner. Lao Zhu originally planned to keep it simple, but since he decided to worship the sages on Mount Tai, he naturally couldn't be perfunctory. Yijia had to follow Mount Tai to finish the sacrifice.

Rituals and music were played outside the capital, and Zhu Biao led civil and military officials and some people in Beijing to send off the emperor Yijia. The color of the emperor's ride was azure, and the height of the 辂 was nearly one meter high. The 辂 disc was a golden dome , four round plates inlaid with jade, which are called jade 辂 because the important parts are decorated with jade.

The disc has engraved gold hanging clouds, and three layers of engraved gold cloud plates are pasted around it. The curtain is made of three layers of blue satin, and each layer is embroidered with patterns of golden clouds, dragons and feathers. Four gold and green satin ties are tied to the chariot.

The four pillars are painted with golden cloud dragons. There are bead curtains hanging from the car door, three on each side. The Yunlong throne is surrounded by Zhulan, which is painted with gold and color alternately, and there are tapestry around the fence. The two wheels each have eighteen spokes and are decorated with gold engraving.

There are two shafts in front, and the two ends are decorated with the head and tail of a golden dragon respectively. There are twelve blue satin Taichang flags on the back tree. The flags are embroidered with five stars of the sun, moon and twenty-eight stars respectively. There are colorful tassels hanging from the flags, which are magnificent.

Yingguo Gong Fu Youde, who was so heroic and aggressively overwhelmed the tiger, rode his horse and rushed to the front of the escorting team more than ten steps, jumped off the horse and bowed to the prince on one knee. Zhu Biao stepped forward and patted his cold iron armor and whispered: "Fu I can't be at ease with my uncle accompanying me to escort me, it's just that the mother's empress is too tired to leave the palace for a long time..."

Fu Youde was in his prime, with a physique as majestic as a bear standing upright, more than a head taller than Zhu Biao. In the past, the generals could look down on the city from Gaoguan Mountain in the southeast of the city. It was an important place, but it was occupied by Han soldiers. The generals looked at each other, unwilling to move forward. Fu Youde led hundreds of people to go up first with a drum. Although he was hit by an arrow in the cheek, he did not retreat because of it. Bravery, finally won Gao Guanshan.

Today's imperial court is as bright as a cloud of handsome and powerful generals, but in terms of the courage of the generals, even in the founding years, there is no one comparable to them!

Fu Youde replied in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Your Highness, we will arrange the itinerary in the end!"

Then he saluted Zhu Biao again, and then his tiger eyes swept across the civil and military officials behind him, and after a simple gesture of clasping his fists, he flicked his cloak, jumped on the horse and raised his whip to chase after the emperor Yijia who had already set off.
