Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty First The Sad Emperor Toyo [1]
When the little prince and the queen came together, Chu Yi's eyes naturally fell on the queen and the little prince.
Chu Yi's impression of the little prince was still a year ago. At that time, the little prince could not walk on the ground. Fast forward a year, and the baby who could not walk on the ground was now running all over the ground.
With a bit of pride, Zhu Houzhao said to Chu Yi: "Daban, you haven't seen Huang'er for almost a year!"
Chu Yi smiled and looked at the little prince who was looking at him with wide eyes and curiosity.
Chu Yi smiled slightly and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I wonder if the prince has ever taken a name."
Zhu Houzhao looked serious, and said with a bit of seriousness on his face: "The emperor is my eldest son, and I attach great importance to him. I have consulted Jiao Fang, Wang Hua and other pavilion elders about the name of the emperor, and finally chose him."
Be a base character!”
Chu Yi raised his eyebrows and said: "In Yangtze dialect, Ji means basis, and Zaixia means the basis of things! Is the little prince's name Zhu Zaiji?"
Zhu Houzhao nodded and said: "Exactly, according to the rules passed down by the prince, the emperor's name is Zhu Zaiji! I don't know what the eldest companion thinks, what does the emperor's name mean?"
It seems that Chu Yi did not pay too much attention to the names of the princes. In the famous generation, the names of the royal heirs were determined early by Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang. It can be said that the lives of the royal family, whether they are the emperor or the prince, are very important.
unique.
The life of Zhu Zaiji still belongs to the normal category, at least it is not a new word created for the sake of naming. As for the name Zhu Zaiji, if Chu Yi thinks he remembers it correctly, it seems to be the name of the eldest son of Emperor Sejong Zhu Houcong in history, but this
He was the eldest son of a concubine, but he was short-lived. He died young when he was only a few months old, and was named Prince Aichong by the emperor.
Now Zhu Houzhao is safely sitting on the throne. Looking at the situation, it is natural that there is nothing wrong with Shizong Zhu Houcong. Even the name of the prince has fallen on Zhu Houzhao's eldest son.
Obviously, this little prince is a man of profound merit. Looking at his healthy and lively appearance, he is naturally not comparable to that of Prince Aichong.
He reached out and waved to the little prince Zhu Zaiji. The little prince was less than two years old and was very curious about everything.
At this moment, the Queen patted the little prince on the head and said: "Your Majesty, go see the Taifu!"
Although the little prince is less than two years old, he is a member of the royal family and has received an excellent education since he was a child. After listening to the queen's words, he stepped forward with his short legs and made a milky sound.
He said to Chu Yi: "Master!"
He called Taifu, but Zhu Zaiji blinked and looked at Chu Yi, his eyes full of curiosity, as if he didn't quite understand who this Taifu was.
The Prince's Grand Master, the Prince's Grand Tutor, and the Prince's Taibao are the three divisions of the Prince. After Zhu Zaiji was born, Zhu Houzhao, who deeply loved his eldest son, named Wang Shouren, Yang Yiqing, and Chu Yi as the three divisions.
Chu Yi led an army to Japan when Zhu Zaiji was less than one year old, while Wang Shouren and Yang Yiqing were in the court. During this year, they often entered the palace and began to teach the little prince according to the emperor's requirements.
It has to be said that the emperor attaches great importance to the young prince. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to establish the East Palace Third Division so early.
Although the young prince was not decreed to be the Crown Prince of the East Palace, the Third Division of the East Palace had made the decision early, and even a fool could see that as long as the young prince could grow up safely, the position of emperor in the future would most likely belong to him.
As for whether Zhu Zaiji will be able to become a qualified emperor in the future, there is no need to worry too much about it. If nothing else is said, just looking at the Third Division of the East Palace is enough.
Of course, if the little prince is really not a man of talent, it is not impossible, but the possibility is too small. At least for now, it seems that the little prince is not the kind of ignorant and unteachable person.
Chu Yi reached out and grabbed the little prince's wrist, and a burst of inner energy flowed into the little prince's body. The little prince chuckled as Chu Yi grabbed his chubby little hand.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Houzhao's face was filled with relief, while the queen beside him breathed a sigh of relief.
It can be seen that Chu Yi still likes the little prince very much. As a queen, although the queens of the Ming Dynasty never asked about the affairs of the court, this does not mean that the queen does not know Chu Yi's status in the court.
The fact that Chu Yi was able to be named as one of the three masters of the crown prince by the emperor as a servant shows Chu Yi's status. What's more, Chu Yi's name is known to everyone in the world, even if he is
The queen, who was deep inside the palace, knew that Chu Yi was definitely the number one person under the emperor.
If there is really someone in this world who can lead the replacement of the throne of the Emperor of Heaven, then this person is Chu Yi.
Therefore, the queen knew very well that as long as her prince could win Chu Yi's approval, his position as prince would be as stable as Mount Tai and no one could shake it.
The inner breath passed through the little prince's body. Chu Yi showed a smile on his face and said to Zhu Houzhao and the queen: "Your Majesty, empress, I just checked the little prince's body. The little prince is in good health, but he is blessed.
This person, who will be honored with great honors one day, will definitely be a wise king who is not inferior to Your Majesty!"
"Hahaha, that's natural. My prince will naturally be no worse than me. What's more, he has a great companion to teach him. If he cannot become a wise king in the future, I will not spare him!"
After leading Chu Yi to meet the little prince, the queen took the little prince away at Zhu Houzhao's signal. Soon, Zhu Houzhao and Chu Yi were left in the imperial garden.
Even the accompanying chamberlains were standing far away at this moment. Zhu Houzhao looked at Chu Yi with a serious expression and said: "My dear companion, I really feel ashamed of my great companion!"
Chu Yi heard this and said quickly: "Your Majesty, why did you say this? It really hurts Chu Yi!"
I heard the emperor say: "I heard that Daban was bombarded at the port. I hate it deeply. I have also asked Dongchang, Jinyiwei and Dali Temple to jointly investigate the case, but so far they have not been able to catch the mastermind behind it."
man of!"
Chu Yi smiled slightly and said: "So your Majesty is talking about this matter. In fact, your Majesty should also know that those who assassinate me may not need someone who is in charge."
Zhu Houzhao said bitterly: "I understand in my heart, but what I don't understand is that what Daban has done has contributed to the country and the people. Why do those people just dislike Daban and even hate Daban to the bone?
The deputy will never give up until he kills his companion!"
Chu Yi couldn't help laughing and said: "Your Majesty also said that what I did was beneficial to the country and the people. This was to benefit the country and the people, but it greatly harmed the interests of these people. As the saying goes, destroying people's wealth is like killing their parents.
, what I did was not just as simple as harming the interests of these people, so it is reasonable to say that these people want to cut their ministers into pieces."
It's not that Zhu Houzhao didn't understand this, but he was very disappointed in his heart. Hearing Chu Yi's words at this moment, he sighed softly and said: "I have ordered people to take the suspects into the imperial prison. After the feast, my companions will go and deal with them."
yes."
In the huge palace, the lights are brightly lit, and under the cover of night, the palace is a scene of brilliant lights. Groups of palace maids and chamberlains are passing through, and a senior official of the imperial court is sitting in it. The sound of silk and bamboo is incessant.
It was a welcoming banquet specially organized by Zhu Houzhao to welcome Chu Yi's return.
There are more than a hundred civil and military officials in the imperial court. It can be said that there are a lot of people. However, when the reception banquet is held this time, there are many high-ranking officials in the huge hall. However, those with slightly inferior status are not qualified to sit in this hall.
Zhu Houzhao, who is sitting in the middle, is dressed in gorgeous clothes, while Chu Yi is sitting in the first position on Zhu Houzhao's left hand side. It can be said that besides Zhu Houzhao, Chu Yi's position is definitely the most respected seat in the hall.
Already.
Under Chu Yi were Jiao Fang, Wang Hua, several pavilion elders, and the civil and military officials seemed to be in a mess, but they were all seated in a very orderly manner, without any chaos.
Zhu Houzhao waved his hand, and Gu Dayong, who was standing aside, waved his hand and ordered the musicians and palace maids to retreat. The civil and military officials who were talking in low voices also fell silent one by one, and their eyes fell on Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao stood up, holding the wine glass in his hand, his eyes swept across the civil and military officials and finally landed on Chu Yi and said: "My lords, drink this cup with me to repay King Wu's victory!"
"Congratulations to King Wu!"
"Congratulations to King Wu!"
All the civil and military officials stood up and raised their wine glasses to raise their glasses to Chu Yi.
Chu Yi stood up and saluted the emperor, then raised his glass to the officials.
After drinking a glass of wine, Zhu Houzhao sat down. As Chu Yi took his seat, the civil and military officials took their seats. They saw Zhu Houzhao's face with a bit of blush. As the saying goes, everyone will get drunk without wine. It can be seen that Zhu Houzhao is now
My son is in a very good mood.
Their eyes fell on a figure in the crowd. As the center of the scene, everyone not only paid attention to Chu Yi, but also paid attention to Zhu Houzhao's every move. At this moment, everyone naturally noticed that Zhu Houzhao's eyes fell on that figure.
above the figure.
Emperor Gokashiwara sat among the civil and military ministers, looking completely lost in thought.
As the Emperor of Japan, to be honest, Emperor Gokashiwara is definitely a miserable emperor. As the son of Emperor Gotsuchimikado, when Emperor Gokashiwara ascended the throne, the imperial family could be said to have declined to the extreme.
As a member of the emperor family, Emperor Gotsuchimikado, the father of Emperor Gokashiwara, passed away. The royal family was stunned and did not even have the funds to bury the emperor. Until the shogunate sent money, the body of Emperor Gotsuchimikado was placed in Yoshisenji Temple.
They were all rotting away before they were buried.
One can imagine what the situation would be like for Emperor Gokashiwara who ascended the throne of emperor under such circumstances.
The shogunate and local daimyo were all powerful forces that directly sidelined the emperor, making him worse than a puppet. During his reign, the Onin Rebellion broke out, plunging Japan into chaos.
