Chapter 587: The warmth of the Tian family at the end of the 28th year of Hongwu
The emperor issued a posthumous edict.
The news spread in Yingtian City in an instant, and before evening, it had become a household name in Yingtian City.
In this regard, the people naturally chose to believe in Emperor Hongwu's decision as always.
After all, it was this emperor who finally allowed them to live a stable life for almost thirty years. Even though everyone was saying that the emperor was ruthless and would confiscate homes and exterminate clans at every turn, I had never heard of the emperor confiscating any family in these years.
ah.
In the past thirty years, the emperor had killed officials and dignitaries who were beyond the reach of ordinary people.
The emperor has always been good for the people, so those who are killed by the emperor naturally want to harm them. When such a person is killed, everyone will clap and applaud.
But compared to the optimistic people in the capital, the officials and gentry in the capital have different ideas.
With the announcement of the imperial edict, the Ming Dynasty will have no other choice. After Hongwu, he can only be crown prince.
From a common sense perspective, this should be a good thing.
After all, if the country is stable, many unnecessary turmoils can be avoided when the country changes.
However, when the emperor confirmed his will at this time, many people could not help but think deeply about it.
In the political arena, anything in the court may have countless real meanings, which require people to carefully understand.
Why on earth would the emperor issue a will at this time?
For a time, it became the most popular question in the court.
However, in the deep palace, Zhu Yuanzhang was holding his great-grandson in his arms, his face full of kindness.
Looking at the prince standing aside, his face was still nervous, fearing that he was not holding him well enough.
Zhu Yuanzhang rolled his eyes and looked at the concubine who was playing with Poria on the cushions.
"Quieqing."
When Tang Queqing heard the sound, he immediately pulled Poria and stood up: "Grandpa Huang."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and waved his hand: "I have said that when we are together as a family, we don't have to stick to these worldly etiquette. We can do whatever makes us feel comfortable."
Tang Queqing smiled, but did not dare to agree.
Rules are rules and cannot be broken anywhere, especially when you are in the royal family and set an example for the world.
Zhu Yuanzhang changed his mouth and said: "The new year is approaching, and I also know that you, a girl, liked to walk around when you were in Fengyang. Brother Xi is not at home now, and the emperor's grandfather, the prince, and these two little guys
, let’s take advantage of the night market to go out and walk around.”
Tang Queqing had some worry on his face and whispered: "I'm afraid this is not in compliance with the palace rules..."
"No, no, no." Zhu Yuanzhang pretended to glare and hummed: "Which palace rule says that our family, young and old, are not allowed to go out for a walk? I immediately changed it!"
Zhu Biao stood aside with helplessness on his face.
The old man is now thinking more and more about whether something is coming out or something is coming out.
He could only say to Tang Queqing: "Send someone to invite Concubine Ning and invite Brother Chi and Brother Bing. Let's go out of the palace together?"
While speaking, Zhu Biao's eyes were already looking at the old man.
Regardless of palace rules, things that should be avoided should still be avoided.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded: "In this case, let me invite Concubine Chong, Concubine Ding, Concubine Hui, and Concubine Shun to accompany me on a night tour of the capital."
Since the death of Empress Ma, Concubine Li Shu was in charge of the sixth palace of the Ming Dynasty. However, Concubine Shu died soon after. Since then, Concubine Guo Ning has been in charge of everything in the palace.
In the past two years, with Tang Queqing entering the palace, and Concubine Ning getting older, the affairs of the palace were gradually handed over to the grandson.
Zhu Yuanzhang added that this could be regarded as a family going into battle together, all dressed up in disguise, hiding from the eyes and ears of the previous civil and military officials, and sneaking out of the palace.
Tang Queqing's face was a little nervous, but his heart gradually became happy.
Since marrying into the royal family, she has rarely had time to play outside.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the concubine he had appointed for his eldest grandson, with a smile on his face, but he sighed softly: "Everyone says that the royal family is good, but the royal family is also the place with the most rules and the most irritating place. Tonight, everything is out of control.
, just have fun.”
As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang's big hand moved slightly and pinched Zhu Wensheng's butt tightly in his arms as he was about to pull his beard.
The little guy rolled his eyes, raised his butt, and turned around to look at the prince's grandfather.
"Ahh..."
"ah!"
Zhu Wensheng's chubby little hands pinched and unclenched cutely, and his meaning was already obvious.
Zhu Biao's heart felt hot and he hurried forward. Regardless of the old man's murderous look, he directly held Zhu Wensheng's arm with both hands.
While Zhu Yuanzhang was still hesitating whether the boss dared to snatch his beloved grandson from his arms, his arms were already empty.
"Holy Son..."
"Grandpa will take you to play tonight."
"Our Holy Son will also leave the palace tonight..."
Zhu Biao hugged Zhu Wensheng with a smile on his face. He had long forgotten that his old man was still there, pouting, and kept coaxing towards Zhu Wensheng.
Zhu Yuanzhang rolled his eyes, curled his lips, waved his arms back and put his back behind him.
unlucky!
Not long after.
Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Shangbing had already arrived outside Qianqing Palace, and the concubines from the harem also arrived one by one.
Everyone knew that the old man was going to take his family out of the palace to play, and everyone had changed into their clothes for leaving the palace.
Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Shangbing had the lowest seniority here. Apart from Zhu Wensheng and Zhu Fuling, two brats who couldn't even speak, they were the only two people to greet each other.
Wait until the end.
The two of them saw that Concubine Guo Ning had walked up to the Crown Prince with a nervous look on her face, and with a reproachful look on her face, she reached out and gently patted Zhu Biao's arm.
Then he carefully snatched Zhu Wensheng into his arms.
When the time came, Concubine Guo Ning did not forget to glare at Zhu Biao: "I don't know how to hug him better, because the back of Sheng'er's neck will not be able to bear it."
As she spoke, Concubine Guo Ning carefully placed Zhu Wensheng in her arms and rested her little head on her arm.
Zhu Biao smiled.
Concubine Ning is an elder, even if she is the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, she has nothing to say at this time.
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw that his whole family had arrived and he had already changed his clothes, he waved his hand.
"Get out of the palace!"
Sun Gou'er, who had also changed into a butler's uniform, immediately led several Jinyi guards who had also changed into uniforms to clear the way in front of him.
He did not forget to warn: "Please keep your eyes sharp later, don't let the nobles be bumped into. Your eldest son, your eldest daughter's side is the most important thing. If anyone misses his errand, we will go back and talk to your superior in person."
.”
The officers and soldiers did not dare to neglect and responded one after another.
When the emperor and his family want to go out of the palace for fun, they cannot leave the palace through Xi'an Gate, let alone Hongwu Gate.
Detour through Xuanwumen, exit the palace through Bei'anmen, and then turn to Dongda Yingbi Street, so that the whole family can sneak out of the palace quietly.
When a group of people left the palace, the lanterns in Yingtian City were just beginning to light up.
Thanks to the approaching New Year's Eve, goods from all over the world have been transported to Yingtian in recent years, making Yingtian City now more and more lively.
There is also a previous episode of Yingtianfu, in order to heighten the atmosphere of the approaching New Year.
In fact, most people in the court knew that this was Ying Tianfu's way of collecting more business taxes before the New Year.
But no matter what, Yingtian City is almost as good as no curfew now.
As a junior, there are not so many palace rules.
Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Shangbing acted as explanations for the group.
It's just that Zhu Gaochi was naturally not willing to do such a thing, so he did it cheaply and conspicuously packaged Zhu Shangbing.
Everyone was escorted by Jin Yiwei, walking on Genbei Street in Xihuangcheng, towards Taipingli in the south.
Zhu Shangbing introduced with joy on the side: "Yingtian City has become more and more lively recently. When we get to Taipingli, it will be the most lively. There are all kinds of people, jugglers and storytellers.
If you go to the middle boundary between Shangyuan County and Jiangning County, that is, Qiwang Street and Dazhong Street, there are many snacks, although they are not expensive, they have a unique flavor.
After walking along this road, we turned around from Dakongfang and reached Huashi Street and Nanmen Street. It was even more lively. We can find the most fashionable things in Yingtian City there.
If Grandpa hasn’t had enough shopping at this time, we can also turn to Dongpailou at the end of Nanmen Street and go to Gongyuan Street. Then, there will be countless fresh tricks in the river houses along the Qinhuai River. It’s a great time to keep and play!
"
By the end of the story, Zhu Shangbing's face was flushed and he looked very happy.
However, Zhu Gaochi, who was beside him, had turned his head silently, looking at the lively crowd on the street, and began to pray silently for this fool in his heart.
Snapped!
A crisp sound came from the back of Zhu Shangbing's head.
I saw Zhu Yuanzhang looking at Zhu Shangbing who was shrinking his head with a sinister expression, and said coldly: "When you turn around, I will teach you a lesson! You can go to that place too? Look at you, you don't go there often!"
"
The places Zhu Shangbing mentioned earlier were all new and expected for Zhu Yuanzhang.
But only the last river house on the Qinhuai River.
What is that place?
That is a gentle land that can kill people's fighting spirit, a bastard and filthy place that can turn a good man into a libertine.
Zhu Shangbing shrank his head again.
He had already noticed that the looks in the eyes of the ladies in the palace could hang him on the Hongwu Gate Tower.
Zhu Shangbing looked around a few times.
Brother Chi doesn't seem like someone who would go wandering around the Qinhuai River.
Brother Xi?
Zhu Shangbing glanced at the concubine who was at the scene and gave up the idea.
He blushed, under everyone's gaze.
Zhu Shangbing roared.
"It's my dad!"
"My dad told me this!"
"That's what my father told me the next day when he returned to Beijing last time."
After finishing speaking, Zhu Shangbing frowned, as if what he said was the most truthful.
The sharp eyes of the ladies disappeared in an instant.
Tang Queqing also released his hand that was covering Zhu Fuling's ears.
Zhu Biao looked aside silently.
Shouldn't there be more new artillery on the walls of this imperial city?
The prince's mind drifted into the distance in an instant.
Zhu Yuanzhang hummed coldly: "I knew it was that bastard who did it. I am ignorant and incompetent, yet I still want to lead our good grandson into trouble!"
Zhu Shangbing didn't care about this at this time, he kept nodding: "Grandpa, you have to teach my father a lesson next time. Not only did he tell his grandson this, he also asked his grandson for money. He is our
Ming Dynasty...why do you still ask me for money..."
Regarding the cheating thing.
Zhu Shangbing is already outstanding, practice makes perfect.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes already flashed with murderous intent: "What else can he do! It's not just about those few taels of rotten meat! We will send someone to call him back tomorrow. I think he has knelt too little in front of his ancestors!"
Zhu Shangbing nodded repeatedly.
As long as the old man's anger is not directed at himself, it will be fine.
Forced into his rough-skinned father, and already familiar with the process of being beaten by him, no one in the entire Ming Dynasty dared to claim first place if His Highness King Qin was ranked second.
After arriving here, everyone recovered.
Zhu Shangbing no longer dared to be conspicuous, he said everything to outsiders, and wandered around Yingtian City with this group of elders in an orderly manner.
And outside Yingtian City, in a courtyard with no direction or distance.
Zhu Ping, the king of Ming Dynasty and Qin Dynasty, who had just been lying down, suddenly sat up.
"Ah sneeze!"
Zhu Xi sneezed heavily and felt that his brain was shaking under his skull.
"Did you catch a cold?"
After thinking about it, Zhu Xi slowly lay down.
Inventorying fields, checking local officials, all these things made him feel overwhelmed every day, and he was unwilling to give up even if he had a chance to rest for even a moment.
Not long after, a heavy snoring sound came from the house.
Return to Yingtian.
The old and young men of the old Zhu family, as well as the women, children and children who had not left the palace for a long time were all dazzled by what they saw.
Zhu Shangbing has completely lost his qualifications to explain, and has been reduced to a tool for those ladies to carry things.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Concubine Guo Ning is holding Zhu Wensheng in her arms, and Tang Queqing is holding Zhu Fuling in her arms. The two are surrounded by a group of ladies.
Zhu Yuanzhang led Sun Gou'er and wandered from one side of the street to the other side of the street from time to time.
Zhu Biao put his hands in his sleeves and folded his pockets together, followed by chubby Zhu Gaochi.
"Do you know everything about your father's march south to the east of Shanxi this time to help brother Hei?"
Facing the inquiry from the prince's uncle, Zhu Gaochi thought deeply, nodded and replied softly: "My nephew knows. My father's behavior violated the prohibition. The uncle should write a letter to reprimand him."
Zhu Biao shook his head: "It's all the same. If something happens to you and your uncle is close, he will definitely help you."
Zhu Gaochi nodded and lowered his head.
Zhu Biao added: "Although the tax office was established by Brother Hei, he should be in charge of it. But I often ask questions. I have read all your memorials and archives. They are very interesting."
good."
Even sometimes, Zhu Biao would feel in a trance.
Brother Chi should be more like his biological son.
On the contrary, it’s my own bastard thing, and it belongs to whomever I love.
Zhu Gaochi smiled implicitly: "My nephew just does what he can, and he doesn't do what he can't do. This is probably the case. Only when he makes fewer mistakes will he feel that he has done a good job."
"Peek into one place and see the whole picture." Zhu Biao shook his head and said: "To have such a scene now shows that you are talented and cannot be trapped in one place in the tax office."
Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi's heart skipped a beat.
Does the prince's uncle want to transfer himself elsewhere?
Zhu Gaochi immediately said: "My nephew has little knowledge and is still young. The tax office is relatively independent and has nothing to do with the princes in the court. He can still do things carefully. If my nephew goes elsewhere, I am afraid he will inevitably be involved in the different political opinions of the princes."
.”
Zhu Biao smiled faintly.
"As long as your position is high enough, you can stay away from those different political opinions."
Zhu Gaochi was speechless.
This is not true at all.
Zhu Biao then said quietly: "If you are asked to serve in the cabinet in the future, will you still worry?"
