Reciting poems, painting, and listening to music have now become Zhu Ying's most common activities.
While wandering around the capital a few days ago, he accidentally discovered a good place, Jiaofangsi.
Originally, I wasn't very interested in Jiaofang Si Zhuying, but after marrying several concubines, I became interested.
Of course, every time he went to Jiaofangsi, he mainly listened to small songs without getting a deeper understanding.
In the backyard, I accompanied Xu Miaojin to paint together.
Because Xiao Wen Cheng was too clingy, Zhu Ying didn't have time to 'get close' to Ye Yueqing.
"Your Highness, I may be pregnant." Xu Miaojin looked a little shy.
Thanks to Zhu Ying's recent hard work, Zhu Ying is currently in her early twenties and is naturally singing and dancing every night.
As a grandson, it is impossible to say that there are any protective measures. Everyone is trying to get pregnant.
Hearing this, Zhu Ying kissed Xu Miaojin's cheek gently: "I will ask the imperial doctor to come over and take a look at you later."
Xu Miaojin nodded slightly.
At this time, a eunuch came to report: "Your Highness, the commander of the main hall, Jiang Zhen, wants to see you."
Zhu Ying looked at the unfinished flowers and plants and said, "I'll go and see what's going on first."
Then he stood up and told the eunuch to call Dr. Zhang to give Xu Miaojin a look before heading to the main hall of Kunning Palace.
Jiang Wei was waiting here respectfully: "I pay my respects to His Highness the Grand Sun."
Zhu Ying nodded and said: "Without courtesy, Commander Jiang is here. Is there anything you can do with Grandpa?"
Just like the old man who calls himself "I", Zhu Ying has never called him "Grandpa Huang". He has always called him "Grandpa" as a common name.
In fact, some officials have impeached this point before, saying that His Highness Taisun should follow royal etiquette and pay attention to his address.
However, the official's impeachment memorial never reached the old man's desk, and he died of a sudden illness the next day. It was really a pity.
You must know that the Western Regions are full of messy ghost tricks, and most of the doctors in the Ming Dynasty have never understood them at all, so naturally they have no way of knowing.
Zhu Ying never gets used to small roles.
Of course, the main reason why he wanted to be killed was because when investigating his situation, it was found that Yan Guan had actually participated in the human trafficker transaction, but his hands and feet were clean and there was no evidence.
It's just that Zhu Ying doesn't need any evidence, so it's considered decent.
When Jiang Wei heard Taisun's inquiry, he reported the situation of tens of thousands of people writing blood letters in the capital city.
After Zhu Ying heard this, she was also a little confused.
He didn't expect that he just wanted to go to Japan as an envoy, but there would be so many people trying to persuade him.
However, I soon thought that there might be someone behind the wheel who wanted to do this. It wasn't that there was any hidden intention, it was probably that I wanted to flatter him secretly, but I didn't expect that such a big thing would happen.
"How to deal with those blood letters now."
Zhu Ying felt a little moved. In fact, from Zhu Ying's perspective, he did not say that he had really done too many things for the people.
The occurrence of many things is just due to some experiences in his previous life.
The main reason is that the people living in today's world are really suffering, so it is natural to help a group of people. After all, he has this ability himself.
When safeguarding the interests of the people, Zhu Ying actually did not think about the popular support, but more about the strengthening of the overall strength of the Ming Dynasty.
If you arrange flowers intentionally, the flowers will not bloom, but if you arrange willows unintentionally, they will create shade.
Invisibly, Zhu Ying's fame has become completely loud throughout the Ming Dynasty.
"This is a grand occasion. The people all treat me sincerely. I cannot let them down."
"However, the matter of sending an envoy to Japan has been decided, and it should not be changed overnight."
"What did grandpa say?"
After staying in the capital for more than four years, this trip to the Japanese country was dictated by the situation. Secondly, Zhu Ying also wanted to go there to see his own great country and the Japanese country that was about to become a territory of the Ming Dynasty.
Jiang Wei replied: "Your Majesty just wants to let His Highness make the decision himself."
Zhu Ying nodded slightly, and after pondering for a while, he had an idea.
"These letters written with the blood of tens of thousands of people represent the people of Ming Dynasty's hope and recognition for the court and me. It is inappropriate to waste it like this."
"Commander Chiang Kai-shek made another trip to inform the Di Bao Si and add an introduction to tomorrow's chapter. The imperial court will build a Pavilion of All Peoples. At that time, all the blood letters written by tens of thousands of people will be displayed in the Pavilion of All Peoples, and they will be available to all people in the world.
Take a tour inside the museum.”
This is a very good opportunity to win over people's hearts. After the Wanmin Pavilion is established, through the publicity of Dibao, a large number of people will naturally come to watch.
The names written in blood will become the pride of the people in the capital and the source of their loyalty to the Ming Dynasty in the future.
These loyalties will be passed down to their children and even future generations.
"I will report this matter to Your Majesty immediately." Jiang Wei's eyes moved and he replied with surprise in his tone.
He didn't expect that His Highness Taisun would have such an idea. It was simply a stroke of genius.
Anyone with a clear eye can see the key.
The foundation of Taisun, which was already extremely solid, will become even more solid, forming a seamless connection with the inheritance of the throne.
When the news about the Wanmin Pavilion reached Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up.
Not only the Wanmin Pavilion, he suddenly realized that he could win over the people's hearts by building more such pavilions.
"As expected, our eldest grandson always has some unexpected and wonderful ideas."
...
By the time Zhu Ying returned to the backyard of Kunning Palace, Dr. Zhang had already checked Xu Miaojin's pulse.
"Congratulations, Your Highness, Concubine Jin is happy."
Hearing this affirmative answer, Zhu Ying was naturally very happy.
From an emotional point of view, among the many concubines, excluding Ye Yueqing, Xu Miaojin is the only one who can still enjoy free love.
At that time, Zhu Ying was just a businessman and was favored by Xu Miaojin.
You must know that at that time, Zhu Ying, who was a businessman, was not qualified to marry Xu Miaojin.
But in Xu Miaojin's heart, she already knew that she would not marry anyone else, so she often contacted Zhu Ying through Zhu Gaochi.
It's just that the family education is strict, so it is difficult to have many opportunities to play with Zhu Ying.
Then when Zhu Ying entered the palace, he suddenly transformed into the grandson of the Ming Dynasty, and became the most noble person in the Ming Dynasty. Xu Miaojin was not worthy of it, but whether Zhu Ying wanted it or not.
So much so that Xu Miaojin was a little worried about gains and losses.
Now she has finally not only become Zhu Ying’s concubine, but she is also pregnant with a child.
Touching her flat belly, Xu Miaojin showed a happy smile on her face.
However, since you are pregnant, you cannot have sex at night.
In the evening, Zhu Ying asked the wet nurse to put little Wen Cheng into sleep and take him away.
It has been more than half a year, and Ye Yueqing's body has recovered and she can naturally have two more babies.
The next day.
The matter about the Wanmin Pavilion in the capital's newspaper once again caused a stir.
When they thought that their names would appear in the Manmin Pavilion, almost all the people participating became even more excited.
Many people even went to inquire where the Manmin Pavilion would be built and when it would be built.
Regarding the matter of sending an envoy to Japan, there was a lot of excitement on the surface, but in the dark corners, there was also an undercurrent surging.
After all, there are still many people, especially among the envoys from all nations, who don't really want to see the rise of the Ming Dynasty.
If the great grandson of the Ming Dynasty can be eliminated, then it will be worth it no matter how many people die.
Unfortunately, the accompanying 200,000 troops will crush their minds into pieces.
The transfer orders from the Ministry of War were quickly transmitted to every guard post.
After all, the gathering of 200,000 troops and logistical preparations are no small matter.
It's not like Zhu Ying can just go out, it will take at least more than a month of preparation time.
Also this year, Zhu Yunxi will turn seventeen.
"Sister, do you think the eldest brother will give me a piece of vassal land like the second brother?" Zhu Yunxi asked with a somewhat expectant look.
He graduated from the Ming Dynasty Military Academy last year. According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, the sixteen-year-old Zhu Yunxi was already considered the first.
The news that Zhu Yunwen went to occupy the city made Zhu Yunxi very envious.
At his age, like many princes in the past, he naturally wanted to see the bigger world.
From his birth to the present, almost all of Zhu Yunxi's life has been in the imperial palace. Even in the capital city, he has not visited many times.
"Do you also want to be an overseas vassal king? But overseas is not as prosperous as the capital."
Zhu Mingyue said curiously.
In fact, Zhu Mingyue has also reached the age of marriage, especially since all the little sisters around her have started families.
Of course, she already has her favorite husband, Geng Xuan, the eldest son of the Marquis of Changxing.
It's just a girl, so it's not easy to take the initiative to speak.
Zhu Yunxi said with some dejection: "Sister, you don't know, I am no longer attending classes in the academy, and I have graduated from the military academy, so I have nothing to do all day long."
"I just want to find something to do. For example, my second brother went to Champa. I heard people said that it is also very fun there and there is also the sea."
Speaking of the sea, Zhu Yunxi's eyes lit up.
He had never seen what the sea looked like.
Not only Zhu Yunxi, but also Zhu Mingyue also had a bit of longing in her eyes. She also wanted to see what the sea that only existed in paintings and poems looked like.
"How about you go directly to the elder brother and ask." Zhu Mingyue suggested.
Zhu Yunxi had a worried look on his face: "But I'm afraid that my eldest brother won't agree."
"Actually, my eldest brother has said before that he wants me to hold an official position, but I have no interest in being an official."
Zhu Mingyue thought for a while and said: "I think it's better for you to tell the elder brother directly. The elder brother will definitely give you a piece of vassal land."
"I can also go to your domain to have fun when the time comes."
Zhu Yunxi looked a little struggling, but finally nodded and said: "Okay."
The two children originally lived in Kunning Palace.
However, after Zhu Yunwen and Lu left the East Palace, they moved back to live in the East Palace.
Now that all the concubines of Zhu Yuanzhang live in the harem, Kunning Palace seems a little nervous.
She just got used to living there, so Zhu Ying didn't want to move to the East Palace.
Zhu Yuanzhang no longer established a queen. He wanted to see his eldest grandson and great-grandson every day, so naturally he would not ask Zhu Ying to move to the East Palace.
During dinner, Zhu Yunxi came to Kunning Palace.
"You came here just because of the smell. I made your favorite roast goose and duck today." Zhu Ying smiled and asked Zhu Yunxi to sit down and have a meal.
Zhu Yunxi also wanted to take advantage of the offer, so of course he would not refuse.
After the meal, Zhu Yunxi looked a little embarrassed.
Zhu Ying asked with a smile: "After all, I will go to the Three Treasures Hall if I have nothing to do. I came here today to tell my elder brother what I have to say."
Zhu Yunxi immediately said with some embarrassment: "Brother, it's been too boring to stay in the palace recently. I want to go out and have a look."
When the words came to his lips, Zhu Yunxi still didn't say anything about the feudal territory.
Zhu Ying didn't even think of going to the feudal land.
Because more than a year ago, Zhu Ying asked Zhu Yunxi whether he wanted to stay in the capital or become an overseas vassal king.
No matter which aspect, Zhu Ying will choose to support his biological brother.
At that time, Zhu Yunxi gave a very definite answer, that is, he wanted to stay in the capital.
But after receiving training from the Ming Dynasty Military Academy, this idea changed a bit.
In the Ming Dynasty Military Academy, the class Zhu Yunxi went to was naturally the best.
There are not only candidates from all over the country, but also elites from the military.
Among them, there was one who came to school from the Ming Dynasty Navy and had a more compatible personality with Zhu Yunxi.
When Zhu Yunxi went to the Ming Dynasty Military Academy, he was not allowed to be informed of his identity. There was a rule in the military academy that prohibited anyone from publicizing his or her identity while attending school.
This is also to prevent some people from taking advantage of this opportunity to form gangs.
Of course, it is impossible to say that it is completely prohibited, but it can still make many people have some scruples, at least they cannot rely on their own status to dominate.
Those who act arrogantly will be fired directly once they find out.
Being dismissed from the Ming Military Academy, the consequences can be imagined.
Therefore, everyone will be cautious.
It was also because that classmate friend opened Zhu Yunxi's horizons, and it was normal for him to start yearning for the outside world.
Furthermore, her sister Zhu Mingyue, whom she has been dependent on since childhood, is about to get married.
After Zhu Mingyue got married, Zhu Yunxi didn't have many friends in the palace because of his relationship in the early years.
Countless of my friends are all princes of the feudal clan, and they are not attending school now.
The huge palace made Zhu Yunxi feel a little more strange.
The group of students who graduated from the Ming Dynasty Military Academy this year included Zhu Yunxi and his classmates and friends.
Through the relationship, I found out that my friend went to the Navy to become the flag officer, which made Zhu Yunxi very envious.
Because according to the current plan of the imperial court for the navy, my friend, who is the chief flag officer, can be stationed overseas in the future.
Until now, Zhu Yunxi's identity is unknown to his friend.
However, Zhu Yunxi knew that his good friend was not the son of a noble man, his father was just a minor official, and he was able to enter the Ming Military Academy largely due to his own efforts.
The night before graduation, Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but lose sleep while listening to his friend talk about his dream of sailing in the future.
That's why I came to my eldest brother Zhu Ying today to ask for vassal status.
Zhu Ying said with a smile: "It happens that I have a morning break tomorrow. I will take you to have a good look at our Ming Dynasty city that never sleeps tonight."
