There are also interested parties. In fact, it is very difficult for a clan to establish a vassal and a country outside the country. Perhaps the country has just been founded, and the second brother and the others are also considered enthusiastic young people and have the desire to rule a country on their own.
But after three generations, most of the clan members will probably want to stay in the Ming Dynasty and enjoy the blessings. Now, unlike in later generations, going abroad is just looking for sin, just like you no longer stay in the country and have to go to Africa to immigrate.
, that’s a lot of people who can’t think about it.
If there is no coercion or inducement, I am afraid that the vast majority of clans will choose to enjoy several generations of wealth in the Ming Dynasty. They would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. Then they have to be chickens. If they go abroad, they will be the heads of mice.
However, it is still too early to consider this. The Minister of Rites came back with several officials. Zhu Biao handed them the written document: "The grand ceremony can be grand, but the rules cannot be chaotic. This time, three princes will be canonized first.
, in two years the other princes will be older, so they will all follow this."
The officials of the Ministry of Rites immediately bowed and agreed. Zhu Biao waited for another two hours before the rough plan was calculated. Zhu Biao checked it over and found nothing wrong, and he felt a lot more comfortable.
Zhu Biao stood up and said: "Plan it carefully again, handle the details well, and hand it over to me in complete form the day before the king's ceremony."
Then he led Liu Jin and others back to the East Palace. Zhu Biao had already decided on the basic things for them, and the Rites Department could naturally handle the rest. After all, this was their specialty.
As he walked on the road, Zhu Biao thought about whether to go to the Imperial Study Room to explain, but in the end he gave up the idea. Since his father had entrusted him with handling the matter, he trusted him to make the best choice for Ming Dynasty.
There is a tacit understanding between father and son, and between men, and there is no need to be too persistent. Besides, Zhu Biao will naturally compensate his brothers on the other side, even if it is not because of brotherhood, but also because his father has doted on him for many years.
Above, with Zhu Yuanzhang’s loving fatherly heart in mind.
Walking all the way towards the East Palace, Zhu Biao felt a little hungry, so Liu Jin ran to prepare meals halfway. When they returned to the East Palace, the meals were already on the table, and Chang Luohua led a group of people to greet him.
Zhu Biao stretched out his hand to help his princess: "Excuse me, how are you doing with your mother today?"
Chang Luohua smiled and said: "My mother is very good to me, and Lu'er is also very close to me."
Zhu Biao also laughed when he heard this: "I haven't visited that girl for a while."
Zhu Biao walked into the palace. Da Shuang'er washed his hands with him and then started to eat. Chang Luohua had eaten in Kunning Palace and was talking about things in the harem.
Although Zhu Biao did not answer, he listened attentively and nodded from time to time. It is always good to communicate and express feelings. Zhu Biao still values his legitimate wife and intends to cultivate feelings.
In fact, what can be said about the harem? Empress Ma may no longer be young and beautiful, but she is still in her prime. No matter how many new concubines enter the palace, no one can shake her status.
But if Chang Luohua didn't say this, what else could he say to Zhu Biao? It would be quite embarrassing just watching Zhu Biao eat. Zhu Biao had almost finished eating, so he started to stir up the topic. He was in Chang Luohua's boudoir last time.
I saw a lot of poetry collections and thought she liked this one.
Zhu Biao studied hard since he was a child. Although he did not put too much effort into poetry, he still knew most of the poems from the previous generation, which made his princess's eyes brighten.
After talking for a while, Zhu Biao went to the Wenhua Hall to read. Liu Jin came to wait on him. Nuan Yu was also there. Zhu Biao glanced at Nuan Yu and asked, "Did someone bully you?"
Nuan Yu shook her head: "The Crown Princess treats slaves very well."
Zhu Biao looked at the girl who had been warming his bed for many years and said, "Don't think too much, do your job well, wealth will be waiting for you."
Of the other three, there is no need to say more about Yun Jin, who knows everything. Although Xiao Shuang'er doesn't talk much, his heart is the same as Ming Jing's. Only Nuan Yu is stupid, and Zhu Biao would say such things.
Nuan Yu's eyes suddenly turned red, she lowered her head and sobbed: "I know this."
These four are all his unofficial concubines. It's not impossible to let them be concubines in the future. They haven't accepted them until now because they are concerned about their own health. And if they accidentally get pregnant, that's not the case.
Blessing.
Nuan Yu went down to clean up, and Liu Jin on the side stepped forward and said: "Among the five personal people brought by the Crown Princess, Chen is a shrewd one. She has inquired about all the trivial things in the East Palace. She usually treats us like
People who serve you personally are considered respectful."
"The remaining four girls are nothing. They are just jealous of the slaves' expenses. They don't dare to offend Yun Jin and the slaves, so they focus on the bully Nuanyu. There are many words of rejection, saying that they have served His Highness for so many years.
He’s also a bed warmer.”
Zhu Biao glanced at Liu Jin with an expressionless face, and was so frightened that he quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed and said: "This slave is guilty, please punish me."
When Liu Jin reported things to him, he shouldn't have such serious emotional overtones. He could make his own judgment on what happened. Zhu Biao looked back and said, "There's no need to eat tomorrow."
Liu Jin breathed a sigh of relief. He knew he was going to be punished when he said this, but it was okay. A slave who made no small mistakes was not a good slave. What's more, even if His Highness helped Nuanyu to speak to him, even if he punished him openly, he would feel guilty in his heart.
He has affection.
What's more, the five of them have been serving His Highness for so long. When Liu Jin first came, Nuan Yu took care of him. He will not forget this feeling. Now it's just one day less food and both sides are better off. Why not?
for.
Liu Jin kowtowed respectfully. Zhu Biao probably guessed what he was thinking, but it didn't matter. After reading for a while, he went back to the palace to rest.
Early the next morning, the three brothers of the Zhu family came to visit their sister-in-law. Zhu Biao and his wife received them in the main hall of Chengqian Palace. The three guys all had gifts, which looked pretty good. They should have been prepared by their mother and concubine.
The three brothers first bowed and saluted: "Brother, I will pay homage to my sister-in-law and congratulate my sister-in-law on their wedding."
Chang Luohua responded with a smile, then stood up and bowed to them briefly, and then went out to arrange meals. The three brothers originally looked like serious princes, each with their own grace and dignity, but as soon as Chang Luohua left,
The three of them just looked at each other and winked at Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao rolled his eyes at them, and the brothers laughed together. No need to say anything, the boy's happiness was so sudden and inexplicable.
After a while, the meal was ready, but Chang Luohua did not serve it. It was indeed inappropriate to eat with a group of brothers-in-law for the first official meeting.
Halfway through the meal, Liu Jin walked in quickly to report. The brothers who were still talking fell silent, and Zhu Biao motioned for him to speak directly.
Liu Jin bowed and said: "A report came from Shandong. Kong Ne, the legitimate son of Duke Yan Sheng, uttered arrogant words when he was drinking outside. The Shandong magistrate next door heard him. When he stepped forward to scold him, Kong Ne dared to make his servants beat the imperial officials.
