From Jinluan Hall to the wide square outside.
There are thousands of officials above Beijing rank, all dressed in solemn auspicious clothes, standing silently in silence in early winter.
Among the officials, the big Han general was wearing golden armor. The armor on his body shone brightly in the warm sun, making people afraid to look directly at him.
When Zhu Yuanzhang's guard of honor appeared, everyone inside and outside the palace knelt down and shouted three times: "Long live the emperor."
The emperor's chariot stopped at the palace gate, Zhu Yuanzhang came down slowly, and took Zhu Yunxi's arm and moved forward slowly.
Surrounded by prostrate courtiers, under their feet were white marble steps engraved with the shape of a dragon. Step by step, the two men walked slowly but steadily.
As soon as I entered the main hall, a warm wind blew in my face. Warm floor heat was burning under the golden bricks of the main hall. It was early winter outside and spring was inside.
"I wish my emperor long life, long live my emperor!"
In the palace, the central officials of the ministry, the lords and heroes of the Ming Dynasty, and the princes and grandsons all bowed down neatly.
Zhu Yuanzhang still held Zhu Yunxi's arm and moved forward slowly. When he reached the steps leading to the throne, he said majestically, "Get up!"
"Long live thanks!"
Remember https://m in one second.
There was another piece of robes rising up, and the sound of gold and jade rubbing against each other.
"Grandpa Huang, please slow down!" Zhu Yunxi leaned over and said when he reached the imperial steps of the dragon chair.
This staircase leading to the throne of the emperor can only be walked by the emperor himself, and no one else can go up.
"Follow us!" Zhu Yuanzhang did not let go of Zhu Yunxi's hand, and the two of them stepped up the steps leading to the throne of the emperor.
The palace was completely silent, except for the footsteps of the two masters and the heartbeats of the courtiers.
If it was just everyone's guess before that King Wu would inherit the great treasure, then the old emperor's actions now make it clear that the young man who followed him on the throne will be the master of the Ming Dynasty in the future.
The official's eyes were filled with joy. The crown prince of the Ming Dynasty was vacant, and the emperor was old. If anything happened, it would be unthinkable.
But now, the emperor finally chose the successor to the country, and he chose the well-known King Wu, making the Ming Dynasty more stable.
Those martial nobles who were close to Zhu Yunxi had ecstatic eyes. What they feared most was that the emperor would choose an heir who did not like martial arts, and this King of Wu was not only the crown prince's legitimate son, but also had a deep connection with them.
In their hearts, long before they had any title, Zhu Yunxi was one of their own.
The military commander, Lan Yu Feng Sheng and others looked at each other. Then the former looked at the vassal king's queue.
The expressions of the vassal kings were even more exciting, with their eyes widened and their breathing rapid. King Wu was actually pulled up by the old man directly from the steps that only the emperor could walk on. In this way, even the previous princes had never done so.
Had.
The older adult prince regained his composure after being slightly surprised. The young princes were still watching infatuatedly. The youngest princes who didn't understand anything opened their mouths wide, as if they could swallow a duck egg.
Their expressions all fell into Lan Yu's eyes, but Lan Yu was not interested, he just looked straight at someone.
King Yan, Zhu Di.
Lan Yu noticed that there was a fleeting sneer on King Yan's lips.
"Stand beside us!" Zhu Yuanzhang whispered after sitting down on the dragon chair.
Zhu Yunxi nodded silently. At this moment, he was just a puppet. He would do whatever the old man said.
The dragon chair actually just looks good, it's long and wide, and apart from straightening your back, there's not even a place for people to put their hands and lean on it.
The position of emperor is inherently helpless.
"Originally, we didn't want to celebrate this birthday. It was King Wu who told us that when an old man from a common man's family celebrates his birthday, he should make great arrangements to let his children show their filial piety and let outsiders see the wealth of the family."
Zhu Yuanzhang's voice rang in the hall, "I am fourteen this year, and I can already be considered a long-lived person. We have experienced everything that we can experience in this life. We have suffered sins that others have not suffered, and suffered hardships that others have not endured. From a common man,
As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, we are quite contented!"
The ministers listened in silence, and the emperor on the dragon throne seemed to be talking about the family's shortcomings.
Zhu Yunxi stood at a high place, and the courtiers covered their faces with daggers, so that he could not see their expressions clearly.
As if feeling his gaze, the warrior Chang brothers quietly raised their heads and met Zhu Yunxi's eyes. The former nodded indifferently, and the Chang brothers' eyes were glistening with tears.
The young man standing next to the emperor and being pulled up together by the emperor was their nephew and the only bloodline left by their sister in this world.
At this moment, their hearts were not filled with joy that their nephew was about to become the crown prince. Some of them were just happy for the dead and even happier for the living.
"But we have such regrets in this life!"
Zhu Yuanzhang continued, "The queen left us first, and our son also died young!" As he spoke, he glanced at Zhu Yunxi.
The latter lowered his head and wiped his eyes fiercely.
Zhu Yuanzhang's big hand patted Zhu Yunxi's arm gently, and continued, "God has treated us well after all. Without a son, we still have a good grandson." As he said that, a smile appeared on his face, "Today is ours.
It’s your birthday, take advantage of this special day, and let’s make it even better.”
Bang, bang, bang.
At this moment, Zhu Yunxi heard his heartbeat getting stronger and stronger. He no longer lowered his head, but raised his head proudly and looked at the courtiers in the palace again.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes fell on Zhu Yunxi's confident face without any stage fright, and he smiled happily.
At this time, Pu Bucheng strode out from the back hall holding a scroll in both hands, with a solemn look on his face.
He walked up to Liu Sanwu, a scholar from Shushe and a great scholar at Huagaidian.
The latter knelt down on his knees, raised his hands above his head, and took the scroll.
Then, Liu Sanwu stood up, opened the scroll, and read loudly.
"Blessed by heaven, the emperor decreed!"
The ministers in the main hall knelt down again and bowed their heads to listen.
"I have been bound by destiny for twenty-five years, and have worked conscientiously for the affairs of the country, without daring to be tired at all, for fear of disrespecting God. For twenty-five years, God has blessed me, and the Ming Dynasty has been prosperous, the country is peaceful, and the people are safe. The ministers say long live the emperor, but there is no one in the world who lives long live."
"I am four out of ten, and my beard and hair are both white. I have suffered wounds from hundreds of battles, and I am often in pain and unable to sleep. I am an old man, and the Ming Dynasty is reborn. For the long-term peace and stability of the country, and for the welfare of the people in the world, the country must not be without reserves."
Bang, bang, bang!
Zhu Yunxi's heart beat even harder, and his palms were filled with his own sweat.
"Steady!" The old man suddenly took Zhu Yunxi's hand and squeezed it hard.
Hall, Liu Sanwu’s voice also trembled a little.
"The emperor's legitimate grandson, Wu Wang Zhu Yunxi, is my legitimate grandson, so he is the crown prince's legitimate son. Among all the princes and grandsons, he has a noble status, a virtuous character, benevolence and filial piety to his friends. He has a heroic appearance and a beautiful talent."
"In order to comply with public opinion, I would like to inform heaven and earth, the ancestral temple, and the country to bestow a book of treasures."
While thinking about it, Liu Sanwu suddenly increased his voice.
"I established the emperor's direct grandson, King Wu Zhu Yunxi, as the great grandson of the Ming Dynasty Emperor. He ascended to the throne of the Crown Prince and was enthroned in the East Palace. With a ten thousand-year rule, with the heart of spreading the world!"
Clenching his fist again, Zhu Yunxi's heart returned to calm in an instant.
The moment Liu Sanwu finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly stood up, took Zhu Yunxi's hand, and said loudly, "From today on, he will be the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty. When we die, he will be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty!"
"I see His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson, Your Highness is a thousand years old!"
The officials of the main hall took the lead in saluting and calling for a thousand years.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes moved, and the military nobles also bowed down in unison, and their voices were much louder than those of the officials.
"His Royal Highness, the great grandson of the Emperor, is a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"
Then, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the queue of vassal kings.
"I see you, the great grandson of the Emperor, who is a thousand years old!"
Then, the old man looked at Zhu Yunxi with a smile.
Zhu Yunxi was already almost as tall as the old man. He raised his head slightly, looked at the people kneeling in the hall, and said loudly, "Everyone loves me!"
However, the ministers did not stand up directly, but continued to shout loudly, "I congratulate your majesty, and congratulate the emperor's grandson. The Ming Dynasty will be forever consolidated and unified forever!"
At this time, Pu Bucheng and several palm print eunuchs held a wooden box high and knelt at Zhu Yunxi's feet.
Then, several academicians took the wooden box from Pu Bucheng's hand and kowtowed again, "Please, Your Highness, the Crown Prince, accept the crown prince's treasure!"
Zhu Yunxi walked down from the height with his head held high, walked to the wooden box, and slowly opened it.
Inside is a seal, a seal of the emperor's grandson carved entirely from snow-white jade.
"Grandpa Huang!" Zhu Yunxi held his hands in his hands and knelt down to Zhu Yuanzhang, "Grandson, thank you!"
On the dragon chair, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.
