72: Announce to the world: Zhu Zhanyu is the eldest grandson of the Hongwu Ming Emperor! Lu struggled desperately! Zhu
Gaoxun moved very quickly, how fast?
Ma Xiuying just came to her senses, and Zhu Gaoxun had already brought Zhu Biao back to the Hongwu Dynasty.
“Gao Xun, Gao Xun, I just finished my government affairs. Where are you taking me?……”
Zhu Biao was on his way to the Huagai Palace after handling government affairs when he was taken away by Zhu Gaolin who suddenly appeared.
When he reacted and opened his eyes, he found himself back in the palace of Yingtianfu.
“Father, mother, the child is back.”
“”I asked Gao Yi to bring you back. Even if you are busy with government affairs, can you not even want your own child?”
It was Ma Xiuying who spoke. Obviously, she was blaming him for forgetting to go back to the Hongwu Dynasty after he had the throne.
Zhu Biao felt guilty and said embarrassedly,”Mother, I was negligent…….There are too many government affairs, and I can’t get away for a while.”
At this point, Zhu Biao’s expression became obviously excited, and his eyes were filled with burning gazes.
He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Gaoxun and said:”Father, Gaoxun, that clergy system is really too powerful! Yesterday, Chen Xun died of emotional excitement…….Zhu Qiyu used the power granted to him by Gao Yi to appoint him as one of the judges, and officials throughout the court burst into great enthusiasm!”
“I found that after reducing the internal fighting, the administrative efficiency of these officials was much faster. For example, when the father gave me high-yield crop seeds, these people rushed to do it before the child gave detailed instructions.”
“They all thought that this thing was made by Gao Xun, and even fought over such a small amount of seeds…….Fortunately, Gao Xun once warned me that my son had grasped the key link, and now the Shangwu Dynasty has begun to prepare for the planning of the Ming Royal Bank!”
“……”
Zhu Biao said a lot, and basically what he did were all projects that Zhu Biao started to implement after he went to the Tiancheng Dynasty to gain experience and returned to the Shangwu Dynasty. After hearing Zhu Biao talk about the general situation, Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly asked about some other situations, and found that they were generally developing in a good direction, and he was relieved.
But Zhu Yuanzhang still adhered to his cautious nature and asked many details before he nodded calmly to Zhu Gaoxun.
After receiving the hint, Zhu Gaoxun looked at Zhu Biao and said,”Uncle, the emperor is going to deify Xiongying, and I also mean to temporarily deify him as one of the Ten Kings of Hell. How about I deify him later when I have other magical powers?”
Whenever Zhu Biao mentioned his son Zhu Xiongying in the past, he was always heartbroken and guilty.
Because he was busy with government affairs for a long time, he didn’t even have time to care about the growth of his own children…….It was not until Xiongying died that he finally woke up from his dream and slowly spent some time with his children.
But missed is missed after all. He often felt that he was sorry for Zhu Xiongying and even more sorry for Chang. When Chang died, he had promised to take good care of Zhu Xiongying.
Now that Zhu Gaoxun was going to deify Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Biao was so excited that he could not compare with ordinary people….
When he first saw Zhu Gaoxun’s ability during the Shangwu Dynasty, he wanted to speak up, but because it was their first meeting, he did not.
After they became familiar with each other, he was attracted by the government affairs of the Shangwu Dynasty.
Now that Zhu Gaoxun took the initiative to bring it up, he was ecstatic,”That’s great! But….”
Zhu Gaoxun was puzzled,”Just what?”
“Will the position of the Ten Kings of Hell be……”
Hearing this, Zhu Gaoxun frowned.
The position of the Ten Kings of Hell is definitely not low, could it be that he wants Zhu Xiongying to be the emperor? To put it bluntly, Zhu Gaoxun reserved the position of the emperor for his family members or even his sons who had made contributions to the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Xiongying got a position of the Ten Kings of Hell just by relying on the blood of the old Zhu family, which was already a good idea.
But Zhu Gaoxun was also confused at the same time, Zhu Biao did not seem to be the kind of greedy person,”Uncle, what do you mean?”
“Isn’t the position of the Ten Kings of Hell too high? After all, Xiongying has no achievements. If he gets this position just by his status, it may affect Gao Xun’s subsequent plans.”
After hearing Zhu Biao’s words, Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying also spoke in agreement.
“Yes, being able to live forever as a deified being is enough.
Zhu Yuanzhang said to Zhu Gaoxun:”If this matter has any impact on your subsequent plans, it is better not to force it.”
“That’s true.” Ma Xiuying also nodded and said,”It’s just like the imperial court. If you rashly give someone too high a position, I’m afraid it will cause dissatisfaction.”
“”Hahaha!”
Zhu Gaoxun laughed out loud. This was the first time he laughed so happily in front of Zhu Yuanzhang and others after he created the Ming Emperor chat group. It was not for anything else, but because Zhu Yuanzhang’s family of three stood in his shoes and considered him, which made Zhu Gaoxun deeply feel the warmth of family.
In the past, it might be Zhu Xiongying who enjoyed this treatment, but now it was him, Zhu Gaoxun, who enjoyed this treatment!
Seeing Zhu Gaoxun laughing out loud, the three of them also smiled and waited for Zhu Gaoxun’s next words.
“Grandpa, Grandma, and Uncle……”
Zhu Gaoxun restrained his emotions and said to the three people seriously:”To be honest, this reincarnation is constructed by me! Not convinced? If you are not convinced, then don’t go to the underworld (baac)!”
“I can give this position to anyone I want! No one dares to have any objection! Just based on his identity as a male hero, he is worthy of it.”
“Besides, the position of the Ten Kings of Hell is just for him to sit on temporarily…….We will make arrangements when there are other magical powers later!”
Hearing this, the three people present smiled and were filled with joy.
Zhu Gaoxun’s tyranny was in line with Zhu Yuanzhang’s intention, which made him think of more.
Yes, why do we still ask for our descendants to enjoy the blessings forever? As long as the close relatives of these generations live well! Otherwise, it will be a disaster for the foundation of the Ming Dynasty! The number of descendants of the Chongzhen Dynasty made him happy, but also made him deeply worried.
Seeing that the three people were laughing, Zhu Gaoxun changed the subject and continued:”In terms of the welfare benefits of other descendants of the old Zhu family, I don’t intend to give them many privileges of deification! Only the descendants of the Zhu family who have made contributions to the Ming Dynasty and the people are qualified to be deified.”
“Otherwise, the underworld priesthood system would lose its meaning and most of its fairness. Only in this way can we ensure that the people and officials do not lose their enthusiasm to a greater extent and inspire future generations to work hard.”
“This is a good one!” Zhu Biao immediately expressed his opinion,”Just like this court, the necessary fairness must be guaranteed.”
Zhu Biao naturally understood Zhu Gaoxun’s thoughts. He might be able to take some care of the old Zhu family members who were closer, but for those who were farther away, they could only rely on hard work to get it.
Zhu Yuanzhang pondered again and again, looked at the three people present, and said:”We have decided to change the vassal system and the royal family system. What do you think?”
“You finally figured it out!” Ma Xiuying sighed and said,”Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. You can’t take care of more than ten or twenty generations. These people do nothing and are born with privileges. Sooner or later, the people of the world will resent the Zhu family.”
“I am also obsessed with it.” Zhu Yuanzhang touched his nose and said embarrassedly:”Sister, you know that I am afraid of suffering and I am afraid that my descendants will be like me.”
“But after thinking it through, I realized that this is not good and will cause great harm to future generations. To truly benefit our descendants, we should let them learn how to strive for self-improvement.”
“On this point, Gao Xun thinks more clearly than us and does better than us…….”
At this point, Zhu Yuanzhang patted Zhu Gaoxun on the shoulder, rubbed Zhu Zhanyu’s head, and sighed:”Fortunately, Gaoxun is here, otherwise we would really be alone.” Hearing this, Ma Xiuying and Zhu Biao’s eyes fell on Zhu Gaoxun at the same time, full of gratitude.
After a while, Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Zhanyu in Ma Xiuying’s arms and said:”Father, Yu’er’s identity problem, do you need my help?”
“No hurry!”Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang mention this, Zhu Yuanzhang’s aura suddenly changed, and he sneered:”Let’s spread the news first and see if those people will be anxious…….I haven’t talked to those old friends for a long time.”
They are all emperors, so there is no need to analyze. Zhu Gaoxun and Zhu Biao understood what Zhu Yuanzhang meant – the old man wanted to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys.
As the saying goes: only by combining kindness and severity can people be in awe.
It is a common routine to hit someone with a stick and then give him a sweet date.
And this sweet date is Zhu Gaoxun’s system of deifying the underworld.
When he thought of this, Zhu Gaoxun suddenly thought of something very interesting…….That is, what expression would the Crown Princess Lu have when she knew that Zhu Xiongying was deified? Would she be completely defeated after knowing that Zhu Zhanyu was the heir to the empire?
Interesting!
Zhu Gaoxun suddenly began to look forward to it. He wanted to see what this vicious woman was like.���What will he do?
In history, whether it is Chang, Zhu Xiongying, or Zhu Yunhuan’s dull performance, it is too strange.
It can be said that these may have a lot to do with Lu…….Although Zhu Gaoxun was not sure, it was only Zhu Yunxun who was ruined by the Lu family. (To read the novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
After a brief discussion, the group went to have a meal.
Not long after, a rumor spread in the officialdom of Yingtian Prefecture: someone entered the palace today, and His Majesty might want to make him the heir to the dynasty! When this news spread, it directly set off a storm in the officialdom of Yingtian Prefecture!
Li Mansion[]
Li Shanchang was sitting under a tree, fishing in the stream at his mansion, with an old servant standing beside him. Half an hour had passed without a conversation.
After a while, Li Shanchang put down his fishing rod and said,”Tell me, who is visiting me?”
The old servant said,”It is Lü Xin, the nephew of Lü Ben, the former Minister of the Ministry of Rites, who is visiting me.”
“Does this person hold an official position?”
“No official position”
“Since he has no official position, why did he come to see me?”
Li Shanchang stood up, dressed in a plain robe, pretending to be a commoner, but the light in his eyes seemed to be able to see through people’s hearts.
The old servant immediately lowered his head, not daring to look him in the eye,”This Lu Xin said that it is related to the court and the country! It is a serious matter and must be informed to you, Master Yu.”
“So, how much did you charge?”
“Thirty ounces of gold, not yet deposited into the account room”
“Give it back, the money is not worth it! You are not even here, and you are just a commoner, and you dare to talk about state affairs!” At this point, Li Shanchang’s words became heavier,”You have followed me for more than 30 years, how come you are still so confused? This Lü Xin is the crown princess of the Lü family. This woman is scheming and vicious, how dare you mess with her?”
“It’s me. If I meet this Lu Xin today, he will come to me to chat about family matters when he takes office tomorrow. Do you believe it or not? Send the person away, return all the money, and I will take care of the matter myself.”
Hearing this, the old servant knelt down and kowtowed,”Thank you, sir, for your mercy!”
Li Shanchang’s words seemed gentle, but in fact they were very serious. The old servant knew that this was his master warning him.
If there is a next time, it will definitely not be picked up high and put down lightly.
Sure enough, how could I hide my little thoughts from the master? With a bitter smile in his heart, the old servant stood up cautiously and turned to leave.
Halfway through, he heard Li Shanchang’s voice coming faintly.
“If you have any difficulties in your grandson’s wedding, just ask. How can such a big Li Mansion be without your contribution?”
“Go to the account office and collect 100 yuan. You have worked hard for following me for so many years…….Go, and be more careful in the future. This Yingtian Prefecture is a place where even an old man is walking on thin ice!”
Hearing this, the old servant was both moved and ashamed.
He knelt on the ground with a thud, kowtowed with tears in his eyes:”Old servant, thank you for your kindness on behalf of my grandson!”
Although money is tempting, this old servant has followed Li Shanchang for thirty years. If he is not careful, how could he accept seventy gold?
When he looked into Li Shanchang’s eyes, he knew that Li Shanchang had seen through what he had done.
Even……..When Li Shanchang asked him how much money he had received, it was actually an opportunity, but he just didn’t seize it.
The old servant had already made up his mind and would pack up and go back to his hometown tomorrow…….This 100 gold coins was Li Shanchang’s severance pay.
Some things don’t need to be explained too clearly.
It was only after hearing the following words that the old servant realized that Li Shanchang had no intention of using him again.
After the old servant left, Li Shanchang sat down to continue fishing, sighing:”Money can move people’s hearts…….Isn’t it the same? Power is like poison! Your Majesty, you want me to step down, but how can I be willing to do that?”
In fact, when the old servant said that it was related to the country, Li Shanchang roughly guessed what it was about.
Otherwise, how could Lu Xin know such taboo news in the palace?
Not to mention Lu Xin, even Lu Shi would never know the possibility!
In Li Shanchang’s view, this was a test of Zhu Yuanzhang for him!
If he dared to make any move, he might face continuous thundering means in the future…….
If Zhu Yuanzhang knew what Li Shanchang was thinking, he would definitely sneer at him. He was not targeting Li Shanchang alone, but the entire court!
Was it necessary to make such a big move against Li Shanchang? This guy thinks too highly of himself, and his cleverness backfired!
Half an hour later.
In the side hall of the East Palace, Lu looked at Lu Xin who was kneeling in front of her and said,”What does Li Shanchang say?”
“”Reporting to the Queen!”
Lu Xin had messed up his job and was terrified.
He buried his head deeply and said,”The old servant of the Li Mansion first took the hundred gold coins and went in to report. Then he returned all the gold and refused to let me enter the Li Mansion. I had no choice but to come back and report to the Queen!”
“Waste!” Lu was furious and swept the tea and gold on the table to the ground,”Take the tenth gold and get out! Get out of the East Palace!”
Lu Xin heard this and a touch of surprise flashed in his eyes.
After wiping a handful of tea, he stole the fifteenth gold, pretending to be terrified on the surface, and retreated.
After he left, Lu looked in the direction of the palace with more and more resentment.
Unlike ordinary officials, she had confirmed the news that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to confirm that person as the heir!
The palace maids and eunuchs proved that this was true!
“No! I will not sit here and wait for death!” Mrs. Lu gritted her teeth and shouted outside,”Someone come!”
Soon, her personal maid came and said,”Your Majesty, I greet you. I hope you are in good health.”……”
“Okay, Fangcao, you are also a close relative of mine, so there is no need to go through so many red tapes.
Fangcao hurriedly said,”I dare not.”
The closer the person is, the more they understand that it is okay for the superiors to say this, but if they really believe it, they are fools.
Lu Shi did not care and directly ordered,”I heard that you have a brother who is still in Yingtian?”
“Yes, Madam! If Madam has anything to tell me, I will ask my brother to do it.”
“Very good, you take out thirty gold coins and give them to your brother, and let him……”
Lu’s plan was simple. She just wanted to spread the news among the scholars in Yingtian Prefecture, and then send someone to inform Lan Yu.
She believed that Lan Yu would never ignore this matter given her status.
Next, she just needed to wait for someone to make trouble, while she would secretly wait for an opportunity to act. Lu’s idea was beautiful at this time, but she could not have imagined that what happened a few days later would make her completely desperate!.
