Chapter 595: Finally understand why the ancestors fought the Western Regions
"It's been born, it's been born. Congratulations, Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Grandson, it's a boy." Niu
In Kunning Palace, at this tense moment, a loud cry finally came from the room.
Immediately afterwards, a eunuch hurriedly ran out to announce the good news.
Zhu Yuanzhang was immediately delighted: "Okay, okay, okay, great joy, great joy."
"Everyone, great reward, we finally have a great-grandson, hahahahaha!!!"
"I ordered the capital to rest for three days to worship our ancestors, and to grant amnesty to the whole world. I wish our great-grandson is born!"
This was Zhu Yuanzhang's happiest moment.
When the eldest grandson has a son, the inheritance of Ming Dynasty's throne will be more stable. The most important thing is that he is still alive, can live for a while, and can cultivate his great-grandson well. Niu
Being able to watch his great-grandson grow up is such a blessing for Zhu Yuanzhang, who is already in his later years.
Therefore, a general amnesty was granted to the whole world, and people were suspended for celebration.
He wanted everyone in the world to know that the eldest grandson of the great emperor of the Ming Dynasty was born.
Zhu Ying was quite excited at the moment, and her face could not hide her excitement.
Although I don’t really care about boys and girls, I am still living in this era and world.
The eunuch's report afterwards was also very exciting.
The newly born big fat boy weighed eight pounds. No wonder it took so long to give birth.
Zhu Ying didn't care too much and went directly into the delivery room.
"Yueqing, I really thank you for your hard work this time."
Looking at the weak and pale Ye Yueqing lying on the bed, Zhu Ying couldn't help but pity him.
Ye Yueqing turned her head slightly to look at the infant child, and said in a soft but happy tone: "I finally gave birth to a boy for Your Highness."
Zhu Ying stepped forward, tidied up Ye Yueqing's somewhat messy hair, and said comfortingly: "You are a great hero this time. You should rest well and take good care of yourself first."
"In the future, if you want to give birth to more children for our Zhu family, you must take good care of yourself."
Hearing this, Ye Yueqing's face showed a happy smile. Niu
Zhu Ying's meaning is very clear. Even if she gives birth to her eldest son, she will not say that she doesn't love Xin anymore. After that, things about getting concubines will start to get busy.
There will be a certain impact on the position of concubine.
This is like giving Ye Yueqing reassurance that no matter how many concubines there are behind her, His Highness Taisun still likes her the most.
At this moment, Ye Yueqing could no longer bear it anymore. After giving birth for such a long time, she was already physically and mentally exhausted. After nodding slightly, she fell asleep directly.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Ying whispered to the palace maids and officials who were waiting on her: "It's a good job to serve you. Don't slack off at all. Let the imperial doctor wait in shifts and check the grandson's body at all times."
"The boiled medicinal food is also ready, and she will drink it when the concubine wakes up. Hot water is also always ready."
"Inform Guanglu Temple to prepare more chicken soup to replenish the health of the grandson." Niu
In fact, these things have already been prepared by the eunuch. As the concubine, strict rules and regulations have been set for childbirth, and there is no room for sloppiness.
It’s just that Zhu Ying still needs to explain it in detail.
Then Concubine Guo Ning came.
As the current master of the harem, Concubine Guo Ning must be more attentive in this regard, and as she is the future heir of the Ming Dynasty, her nature is even more different.
"I'm sorry for bothering you, ma'am."
Zhu Ying saw Concubine Guo Ning and said.
Concubine Guo Ning was in charge of the affairs of the harem. He had seen the arrangements before and they were very detailed.
"What did my grandson say? These are what I should do."
"God bless me, I finally gave birth to a boy this time. It's just that it's windy outside now, so the baby can't see the wind when he's just born, so he has to be raised for a few days."
After saying that, Concubine Guo Ning looked at her newborn great-grandson and her eyes narrowed with laughter.
"What a big fat boy, he gave birth to a great baby."
Zhu Ying also looked at her son and was very happy.
"Don't stay in the house all the time. Come over and show us."
Zhu Yuanzhang's voice came from outside the house. After all, it was the delivery room of his grandson's wife. It was not convenient for Zhu Yuanzhang to go in at this time, so he could only wait in the outer room. Niu
Hearing this sound, the wet nurse who was responsible for holding the child quickly carried him to the outhouse to show His Majesty his great-grandson.
The wrinkles on Zhu Yuanzhang's face were all smiles, and he looked at his great-grandson with joy.
"Okay, that's great. Our little Wen Chengsheng is white, fat, and has a strong body. Come with us."
Nowadays, it is better for babies to be born heavy enough so that they are not likely to die in infancy.
Even in a situation like that of the royal family, many princes and grandsons still die in infancy. This is an unavoidable thing and depends entirely on luck.
In the field of medical care, Zhu Ying has also been guiding the medical school to do more research on pregnancy nutrition and fertility, which can be regarded as reducing the chance of premature death.
According to the seniority ranking previously set by Zhu Yuanzhang. Button
The lineage of Prince Zhu Biao is as follows: Yun Wen obeys the instructions of his ancestors, Qin Wu is victorious, following the road is auspicious, and he is a good teacher and makes good use of it.
After all, Zhu Ying's son is Wen's son.
The name has been prepared for a long time, Wen Cheng, Zhu Wencheng (Tu Cheng).
It means that the son inherits the father's legacy. It can be said that just like Zhu Xiongying at the time, he was born to inherit the future Ming Dynasty as his great-great-grandson.
He is a true born nobleman.
The birth of Zhu Wencheng also meant that other concubines had the right to have children.
And Xu Miaojin, who has been waiting for a long time, is also qualified to enter the palace. Niu
After Chen Muyue gave the gift to the emperor's great-grandson, she returned to her palace.
"Your Majesty, your eldest wife has given birth to a son, and your opportunity has come. You have to think of some way to let Your Highness the Grand Sun dote on you. If your tummy is up to par, you might be able to give birth to a boy in your first child. "
Xiaoqing said happily.
After hearing this, Chen Muyue nodded happily and said, "Bring me the new clothes you made last time. You can go outside the palace and order a few more sets of this year's new styles."
"There are also newly arrived rouge gouache, buy them all."
It was time to compete for favor, and Chen Muyue still felt a bit stressed in comparison.
Whether it is Zhao Xiangxi of Goryeo or Xiangzi of Japan, each has its own characteristics.
Especially the Champa princess Ananya who came with her has a unique and exotic style, and even she felt a little moved when she saw it.
Now Annan is in the middle of a war again. If she can give birth to a son, then it will be her biggest support for the future.
According to the current charter of overseas vassals, the future Ming Dynasty will definitely belong to Xiao Wencheng, but this means that his son can take Annan as a vassal in name.
The title of King Annan will fall on his son.
With the support of the Ming Dynasty, he must be a monarch with real power.
Thinking of this, Chen Muyue couldn't help but touch her belly and said secretly: "You must live up to your expectations."
Zhao Xiangxi on the other side of the palace was also unwilling to be outdone. Niu
He also asked his maid to go out and buy the latest clothes and rouge and gouache.
She had been helping in the Gunpowder Department before, and she had not stayed in the palace for a long time, so her relationship with His Highness the Grand Sun was somewhat distant.
This made her sense of crisis even stronger.
By learning about the current situation of overseas vassals, Zhao Xiangxi's thoughts began to go to Goryeo.
"If I give birth to a boy, there is no problem in becoming the King of Korea. Maybe I can also go back to Korea."
Zhao Xiangxi was very envious of Chen Muyue's return to Annan for a visit.
Originally it was for the family, but now Zhao Xiangxi feels that she can go further.
Seek to capture the entire Goryeo.
If we say the most uncomfortable thing, it should be Xiangzi from Japan.
She has absolutely no friends here.
Ever since I exchanged a few words with His Highness Taisun at the very beginning, I didn't even have a chance to speak.
Living in the back hall of Kunning Palace, I can see her often, but I feel like His Highness Taisun doesn't even see her in his eyes.
Ananya was a little indifferent.
From the moment I came to the capital, I was attracted by the prosperity here, and my thoughts were not in the palace.
Regarding His Highness Taisun, except for a few words on the day of the canonization, there was no contact with him afterwards.
Recently, I have been thinking of ways to travel out of the palace, and my thoughts are quite wild.
Zhu Ying didn't pay much attention to these matters in the harem.
Now that the Ming Dynasty has a strong army and a strong treasury, it is a good time to expand abroad.
...
Nothing happened recently, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, but the multi-state city in Annan needs to be stabilized.
In about a few months, I will be able to fight again. Niu
The employment guild in the Western Regions is a long-term job, and no obvious results will be seen in one or two years.
The Japanese shipping continued to import silver into the Ming Dynasty, which was the time to engage in large-scale development.
Every time silver was put into the warehouse, Zhu Yuanzhang would smile from ear to ear.
To conquer the Japanese country, the money is more than you can imagine.
Here in Kunning Palace, Chen Muyue and Zhao Xiangxi ran the most diligently.
If you notice, the two people never wear the same clothes every day, and their makeup is also carefully done.
If you want to gain the favor of His Highness the Grand Sun, the first thing you have to pass is the Grand Concubine Ye Yueqing.
If Ye Yueqing had an idea, all subsequent plans would basically be out of the question.
It can be seen that Zhu Ying cares about Ye Yueqing very much.
That night, Ye Yueqing said to Zhu Ying who was accompanying him: "Your Highness, we already have a son here. I'm afraid my sisters are also thinking about having children."
"Your Highness, you still don't need to stay with me these days. Are you going to visit someone's palace tonight?"
Zhu Ying smiled and said: "Why, do you really want me to go to someone else's place?" Niu
Ye Yueqing also laughed, of course she knew it was His Highness's joke.
"Your Highness, you should pay more attention to your sisters. You haven't seen how diligently Mu Yue and Xiang Xi have come to my place recently."
"Xiangzi, the princess of Japan, also thought about it, but she was a little timid."
"That girl in Champa City is so beautiful. Don't you, Your Highness, want to kiss Fangze? My heart is moved just by looking at her. She is such a well-behaved person."
"Earlier it was said that my concubine did not give birth to a son. Now that little Wen Cheng has been born, if His Highness does not come to see the sisters, people will say that I am a jealous woman because I have taken over His Highness alone."
Zhu Yingdao: "Let me see who dares to gossip behind his back."
Ye Yueqing gently pushed Zhu Ying: "Oh, Your Highness, please go quickly, it's already dark." Niu
Zhu Ying thought for a moment and asked, "Yueqing, whose bedroom do you think I should go to tonight?"
Ye Yueqing said with a smile: "I won't talk about this concubine. I will tell you later that I am biased. Naturally, His Highness can go wherever he wants."
Zhu Ying shook her head helplessly, kissed Ye Yueqing on the forehead, and then walked out slowly.
...
Zhao Xiangxi looked at the sky and looked at the door nervously.
After a while, footsteps came from the door.
Listen carefully, there is only one person. Button
This made Zhao Xiangxi somewhat disappointed.
It was her maid who came, and the maid said a little depressed: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Grand Sun has gone to the palace of Concubine Yue."
Zhao Xiangxi had actually guessed this result, but now that she heard it, she was still somewhat unwilling to accept it.
He said helplessly: "Turn out the lights."
However, just over half an hour later.
The maid at the door suddenly heard the sound of footsteps. Worried about disturbing the queen, she couldn't help but ask softly: "Who is it?"
The door was pushed open, and Zhu Ying's figure was revealed in the moonlight. Niu
The maid hurriedly knelt down and said, "Greetings to His Highness the Grand Sun."
Zhu Ying waved her hand and asked, "Concubine Xi has fallen asleep."
The maid was a little nervous at this moment and said quickly: "I will go and wake up the queen right now."
Zhu Ying shook her head slightly and said, "No need, you can go out."
The maid did not dare to say anything more and could only go out according to the wishes of His Highness the Grand Sun.
When you go out, close the door behind you.
Almost an hour later. Button
The door opens again.
The maid's face was slightly red and she lowered her head: "Your Highness."
The movement in the house just now was really scary.
Zhu Ying walked away in a big way.
The night is long, and there are still two families.
About an hour and a half later.
Here in Qiankun Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang curiously asked the eunuch Liu He. Niu who had just returned.
"Where is our eldest grandson going tonight?"
Liu He said happily, "Reporting to Your Majesty, Your Highness Taisun first went to the palace of Concubine Yue, and then went to the palace of Concubine Xi half an hour later."
"I came out of Empress Xiang Fei's place an hour later. Now I am in Empress Na Fei's palace."
"I must be spending the night in Concubine Na Fei's palace tonight."
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but clicked his tongue and said: "Our eldest grandson's body is indeed strong enough. It is even more powerful than when I was young."
"good very good."
"It seems that our old Zhu family will soon be able to spread its branches and leaves." Niu
"Go to Guanglu Temple and have breakfast prepared. When the grandson wakes up tomorrow morning, send it over and put in more nourishing herbs."
"Even if you are in good health, you can't let it go to such a waste. Giving birth to a child is not something that happens overnight. The days are long and you have to pay attention to a steady flow."
"The grandson is still young and doesn't know how to control himself. We are experienced people and we must teach him well."
"Forget it tonight, I have to take care of my eldest grandson tomorrow. I can't do this often in the future. Don't wait until I'm older, or I'll be powerless by then."
Liu He replied: "I obey the order."
After saying that, he hurried to Guanglu Temple to convey His Majesty's will.
At this moment in Anania's palace, Zhu Ying said with some sigh: "The raisins from the Western Regions taste good. It seems that we need to issue an order to conquer the Western Regions quickly." Niu
