One hundred and seventy-fifth chapters in the hall, my heart wishes
Chapter 175: Narrated in the Palace, Heart’s Wishes
Empress Dowager Sun's full ceremonial guard, as well as the Luan Jia, slowly stopped outside the main hall. The civil and military officials who were prostrate on the ground couldn't help but were startled, and quickly turned around to greet them. Zhu Qiyu, who was standing supporting the case, saw Empress Dowager Sun.
Not only were they in full ceremonial form, but they were also wearing a set of luxurious and solemn palace attire. The moment they saw this palace attire, they could not help but stiffen, and those civil and military officials who had already turned around and were ready to welcome him.
The officials were immediately stunned.
This set of palace clothes is clearly a formal dress, consisting of a phoenix crown, Xia Pei, Zhai Yi, a back and a large-sleeved shirt. The phoenix crown is decorated with dragons, phoenixes and jeweled tassels, with a jade leather belt, cyan and gold socks, and a waistcoat. The queen's uniform.
He is wearing a red large-sleeved shirt with gold embroidered dragon patterns, a harem, a long red skirt, a red back, and a phoenix crown.
This dress was worn by the empress when she was crowned and in court meetings. But now, the Queen Mother, who has become the Queen Mother, appears here wearing this luxurious and grand dress. All the people can't help but be surprised.
*Surprised.
"I am here to see the Empress Dowager..." Although Zhu Wenwu was taken aback, he still did not dare to be rude. He neatly walked towards the Empress Dowager Sun who slowly got off the carriage and walked slowly to the front of the palace and bowed to the ground.
.
"Your Majesty's family." Empress Dowager Sun nodded slightly and walked slowly into the palace. She raised her head and looked at Zhu Qiyu who was standing in front of the dragon case, staring at her in a daze, as if waiting for something.
After Zhu Qiyu was stunned for a moment, he finally came to his senses. He quickly lifted up his front shirt and walked to the Empress Dowager Sun. He saluted respectfully and said: "My son, I have seen my mother. I wonder why the queen came here at this time."
"Today, the Ai family heard that the Emperor misses the Crown Prince and wants to take the Crown Prince to the Xuan Mansion. He intends to teach him by personal example. I wonder if this is the case?" Empress Dowager Sun carefully looked at Zhu Qiyu, who lowered his head in a respectful gesture, while slowly
Words.
Speaking of which, Zhu Qiyu and Zhu Qizhen really don't look like brothers. Zhu Qizhen looks like his father, Zhu Zhanji, Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty. He is quite tall and burly, with a Chinese character face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he is not angry.
Zhu Qiyu is not like Zhu Zhanji, but more like his mother Wu Taifei. His face also looks thin. Although he is handsome, he looks too delicate. Even when he speaks, it makes people feel like he lacks confidence.
In a word, Empress Dowager Sun never felt that Zhu Qiyu was like an emperor of the Ming Dynasty. At least in her eyes, only someone like Emperor Xuanzong or Zhu Qizhen could be qualified to sit in that position.
-------------------
I think back then, Zhu Qizhen loved his younger brother Zhu Qiyu very much. If there were any good things in the palace, he would not forget to give a copy to the younger brother of King Xi who lived in the capital. During festivals, he would always invite him to the palace.
The love between brothers was forgotten after Zhu Qiyu took over the throne.
When she thought of this, Empress Dowager Sun felt even more depressed and blocked. What made her even more angry was that not only did she treat the Supreme Emperor harshly, but she also wanted to plot to kill the Crown Prince. Now, Zhu Qiyu actually dared to say that.
In that case.
"After returning to my mother, it is true that this matter has happened. I am currently discussing this matter with all my ministers." Zhu Qiyu stiffened slightly when he heard what the Empress Dowager Sun said, and his voice became much colder.
"When the Ai family arrived in front of the palace, they heard that the emperor was furious. I don't know why. Could it be that this matter failed?" Empress Dowager Sun walked slowly in the palace, her eyes falling on the civil and military personnel in the palace one by one.
The courtier's face and voice were not loud, but there was a sense of reserve and nobility that could not be ignored.
"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, I do have a disagreement with Your Majesty because of this matter." Lao Wangzhi took a deep breath, walked out of the class again, knelt on the ground, raised his head and recounted the dispute between him and the Emperor one by one.
Said it out.
The Empress Dowager Sun walked slowly and just listened quietly. Zhu Qiyu had straightened up at this moment and looked coldly at Lao Wang Zhi who was spitting like stars. In his heart, he wished he could pull out the old man who was standing at the door of the hall.
With the sword on the waist of the big Han general, he tore the old guy into pieces.
"...To fulfill the wish of the Supreme Emperor, and to fulfill His Majesty's filial piety at the knees of His Majesty. I also hope that Your Majesty will grant you permission." Old Wang said until the end, and then turned his eyes to Zhu Qiyu, facing his blade-like gaze without any hesitation.
Fear the tunnel.
"Humph, the prince is the successor of the country. How can anyone leave the capital easily? The journey to Xuanfu is thousands of miles away, and the journey is difficult and dangerous. And Xuanfu is an important town for the Ming Dynasty's border army. It is surrounded by powerful enemies. It is not a good place. Prince
How can you be easily involved in danger? If anything happens, can you afford it?!" Zhu Qiyu took a deep breath. He dared to get angry and roar in front of the courtiers, but he did not dare to be too angry in front of the Queen Mother Sun.
Improper etiquette.
"The border town of Xuanfu is heavily guarded, and there is also the Supreme Emperor. Vasusu dare not make an enemy of Xuanfu. Invasions on our border walls mostly come from other places. The land of Xuanfu is not as dangerous as His Majesty thought.
.”
"Besides, the road from the capital to the Xuanfu is hundreds of miles away from the border of the Ming Dynasty. Nowadays, civil strife and disputes have arisen in Waci. How can I have the courage to leave without taking care of myself?" Yang Hong stood up in a deep voice.
Replied.
"I said no, I just can't. This matter cannot be discussed any further!" The corners of Zhu Qiyu's eyes twitched slightly, and traces of anger began to leak out of his voice.
"Emperor, wait a minute." At this moment, the Queen Mother Sun, who had been silent, suddenly spoke. Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but his heart skipped a beat, and he forced a smile on his face. "Mother, this is a court meeting. If you have anything to do, please contact me.
, I will go there to pay my respects, and ask my mother to inquire about my son, and also ask my mother..."
"Haha, how dare you, a lonely old lady from the Ai family, dare to ask questions." Empress Dowager Sun chuckled softly and spoke softly. After hearing this, the sweat on Zhu Qiyu's face instantly dropped. "Queen mother, please calm down, son.
If I have done something wrong, I hope my mother will tell me directly."
"Filial piety, the way of benevolence and filial piety, has been observed by all dynasties since the beginning of the Han Dynasty. This is the foundation of human beings. I wonder if Aijia is wrong?" Empress Dowager Sun's eyes fell on Zhu Qiyu's forehead, and her voice was extremely cold.
"This is natural." Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but lower his head a little lower. He knew very well in his heart that since he ascended the throne, he rarely went to the Empress Dowager Sun to pay her respects. It wasn't that he didn't go, but he always felt that he had met Emperor Xuanzong.
Being his first wife would make him very uncomfortable, and the things he did related to Zhu Qizhen also made him a little afraid to face the Queen Mother Sun. He always felt that her eyes seemed to be able to see through what he was thinking at a glance.
.
"Yes, everyone knows benevolence and filial piety, but how many of them actually do it? Haha..." Empress Dowager Sun smiled meaningfully. At this moment, all the civil and military ministers in the hall showed their expressions.
With an expression of low eyebrows and submissiveness, she felt as if she had a mirror in her heart. She was afraid that the Empress Dowager Sun could no longer bear it anymore and wanted to stand up and say something fair on behalf of her son and grandson.
-------------------
"The prince is the most important person in the country. This is true. However, it is not unreasonable for the prince to leave the capital. When Shizu was here, Emperor Xuanzong, the grandson of the emperor, went to Nanjing on behalf of the emperor to pay homage to Taizu's mausoleum. This
Isn't there a precedent to follow?" As soon as the Empress Dowager Sun said these words, even the stupidest person would understand what the Empress Dowager Sun was going to do today, but they just didn't know whether Zhu Qiyu, the emperor of the day, could withstand the pressure. However, if
if that is the case……
"Reporting to my mother, the late emperor went to Nanjing, not to a bitter and cold frontier place like Xuanfu." Zhu Qiyu could only force himself to say.
"The Ai family has not read many books, but I still remember something Yasheng said: When heaven is about to assign a great responsibility to a person, he must first strain his mind, work his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, and deplete his body before he can walk.
He messed up what he did, so he moved his heart and forbearance, which was beneficial to what he couldn't do.
People always make mistakes, and then they can change; they are stuck in the heart, and they are balanced by worries, and then they act; they are manifested in color, and they are expressed in sounds, and then they are metaphors. When you enter, you will be helpless, and when you go out, you will be invincible to foreign patients, and the country will be permanently destroyed. Then you will know that you are born in
He died of sorrow and happiness."
Empress Dowager Sun recited this famous poem by Mencius, which made everyone in the hall feel a strange feeling in their hearts. These words did not seem to be meant for other people, but they seemed to feel that it was inappropriate for the Supreme Emperor.
It seemed appropriate to be out of town. Of course, even the slightest thought of sex was suppressed. After all, I was squatting in front of me today.
"Especially, 'When heaven is about to entrust a great responsibility to a man, he must first strain his mind, strain his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, deplete his body, and disturb his actions, so tempting his heart and forbearance will benefit him beyond his ability.'
This statement seems quite reasonable to the Ai family. I wonder what the Qing family thinks?" Empress Dowager Sun turned her eyes and fell on the ministers.
The ministers once again said in unison: "The Empress Dowager is Shengming." Well, these words were not only spoken by Ya Sheng recommended by scholars, but they also came from the mouth of the Empress Dowager. Which one of you to say is unreasonable?
I just got tired of living and wanted to light up a lantern and go into the hut to play games.
"The prince is young and has just been born. However, it is time for him to read, read, and understand right and wrong and principles. In those days, the Ai family loved the emperor too much and was slack in teaching. That is why the emperor is in the misfortune he is in today. Fortunately, he has passed away.
With protection, I will eventually return to the light."
"The Ai family feels guilty, ashamed of the late emperor, and of our ancestors of the Ming Dynasty..." After saying this, Empress Dowager Sun couldn't help but her eyes became slightly red, and her tone became choked with sobs.
"Please express my condolences to the great emperor." After hearing these words, those veterans who had experienced the prosperous age of Yongle and the reign of Renxuan over several dynasties also had red eyes, prostrated themselves on the ground and proclaimed, "please express my condolences to the queen mother.
"Zhu Qiyu also tried to persuade him without meaning his words.
"Now that the Supreme Emperor knows his mistakes and can correct them, and is willing to shoulder the responsibilities of a strict father, the Ai family is very happy. I wonder if the emperor is willing to fulfill the benevolence and filial piety of his father and son, and the wishes of the Ai family?"
