Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 1386 This is a good thing

On the whole, Empress Wang is quite a traditional woman. In the original history, after her death, she pursued her posthumous posthumous posthumous title as Empress Xiaoduan. "Simply sum it up".

What is "end"?Su Xun's explanation is "observe etiquette and uphold righteousness", and Daming also followed this interpretation as the official criterion.

The posthumous title of Empress Wang is Duan, which shows that her biggest characteristic is observance of etiquette and righteousness. The performance of observance of etiquette runs through her life, and she also has righteousness. For example, she often uses her own expenses for disaster relief and military pay.

There are many etiquettes in Ming Dynasty, but if you look at it "from the perspective of history", it is more harsh on women after all, and Queen Wang is recognized as a model in respect of etiquette. It can be seen how strict she is on herself degree.

If Gao Wushi were to tell the truth, it would be so strict that he would be perverted—he would observe all etiquette in front of his husband, including not only the etiquette that a wife should observe, but also the superstitions raised by literati and officials regarding the status of empress. high standard.

To be honest, how many literati can fulfill the requirements of a "gentleman"?Anyway, Gao Yushi feels that he is far behind.However, Queen Wang really fulfilled the queen's request. No one in the outer court has said anything against the queen for so many years.

We all know that the most indispensable thing in the Ming Dynasty is a poisonous tongue. There are so many poisonous tongues that can't be found, which shows that it is powerful.Because of this, Gao Yushi tried every means to convince her to see if her body was damaged, so naturally it was not easy to succeed.

After all, in her opinion, mothers are definitely more expensive than children, so even if it is to give birth to a prince, it also means to invite favor and kindness, and to extend it is to be jealous.

Huang Mengyu and Chen Ju had complained to Gao Yushi long ago, saying that the queen would not listen to the persuasion of the eunuchs they sent, whether it was explicit or secret persuasion, the queen would not listen.As for themselves, on the one hand, they don't have much chance to talk about it, and on the other hand, their identities are not suitable—the emperor's cronies came to persuade them, who knows if the empress will have a bigger misunderstanding?

So in the end, Gao Wushi had no choice but to ask Princess Yongning to guide and persuade slowly, and told the queen how important the impact of this matter was.

Perhaps it was because the infighting between the court and the court became more intense this year since the Northwest Rebellion, coupled with the "rectification of the country" incident after Wang Xijue's rebellion and entering the cabinet, and then forced the emperor to divert the court's attention with Dinghai Jingcha.There are various signs that the disastrous consequences of the high pragmatism entrusted to Princess Yongning have sprouted and developed rapidly.

The queen was finally persuaded, or she was shocked to the point of fear by the consequences foreseen by Gao Pragmatically.

In fact, the high pragmatism is not too exaggerated. The dispute over the country led to a serious split in the "ruling class" of Ming Dynasty. This is beyond doubt. To expect them to unite and unanimously speak out, isn't that just a daydream?
A good political environment needs to be jointly maintained by both parties. Once the two sides are separated, they will end up dying together.It's fine if it's an ordinary change of dynasty. Anyway, Gao Yushi is not loyal to Zhu's family, at most he has a friendship with Zhu Yijun. As long as Zhu Yijun is stable in his life, he is Gao Yushi not afraid of having a guilty conscience.

But the consequences of the fall of the Zhu family dynasty were that the Tartars entered the customs, and barbarism replaced civilization, which even delayed the self-evolution of Han civilization. As a result, they were beaten up by Western colonists. This consequence is too pragmatic to bear .

So Gao Wushi had to "foresee" the worst consequences, and blamed the consequences on the queen's lack of a son, so the queen had to pay attention to it—the king is the guide for the minister, and the husband is the wife This is also the "ritual" that the Queen has always insisted on: the interests of her husband are what she must protect.

Gao Wushi breathed a sigh of relief: "This is a good thing, Your Majesty. If I want my Ming Dynasty to enjoy long-term stability and prosperity, the country's foundation must not be ignored. The Emperor is aware of the current situation, and I hope that the Manchu Dynasty will regard etiquette as the highest principle." It's impossible for my officials to recognize that the third son of the emperor can be the crown prince..."

Zhu Yijun couldn't help snorting, then stared at a dragon head-shaped decoration on the gilt stove in front of him, and remained silent for a moment, then said in a bad tone: "Please tell me, since when did Daming start to even Should the crown prince be established without the approval of the outer court?"

Gao Yushi didn't speak.

Of course Zhu Yijun knew that Zhu Yuanzhang would rather establish the emperor's grandson than ensure the succession rights of the prince Zhu Biao's family, and that Zhu Di clearly preferred Zhu Gaoxu, who was deeply Xiaonai's father, to Zhu Gaochi, who was fat and fat, but still established Zhu Gaochi as the prince and maintained it until the end. What is the reason.He asked this just to express a kind of dissatisfaction, an extreme dissatisfaction.

Gao Wushi was silent for a while, and Zhu Yijun did not ask any further questions.After a long while, Gao Wushi sighed and asked: "Your Majesty, I dare to ask: Do you think your prestige among the courtiers can surpass that of the Second Patriarch?"

Is there a fart to ask?No matter how unhappy Zhu Yijun was, he could only say in a low voice, "Of course not."

Gao Wushi nodded, and asked again: "So, can you break the second ancestor's insistence in the past?"

Zhu Yijun didn't answer right away this time, but took a deep breath before saying: "But you said that although Zhou is an old state, its order is to restore the new. If the world is not governed in the same way, the country will not follow the old rules. Since the old system is not enough, it is time to change the new system. It is."

Gao Wushi said softly: "This is what I said, but I also said, 'Following the will of the ancestors does not necessarily follow the laws of the ancestors'—does the emperor really not know what the will of the ancestors is like when it comes to the foundation of the country?"

Zhu Yijun didn't speak, but Gao Wushi went on to say: "The second patriarchs dominate the world, but they are surprisingly unanimous in this matter. That's because in their eyes, the stability of the country is more important than any personal preferences."

Zhu Yijun glanced at him and asked, "You mean that I don't care about the stability of the country and want to be a single husband?"

Gao Wushi sighed: "Since ancient times, the crown princes of the country have been divided into three categories: establishing a son, establishing a son, and establishing a virtuous person. Therefore, if there is no son of a son, he should be established as an elder or a virtuous. However, the two princes are young. Where can you tell?
However, since I came to build the Chu Guizao in the Ming Dynasty, it is not an option to delay it, and I cannot obtain the approval of the outer court.Yichen has always insisted that the dispute can only be resolved if the empress gives birth to a son, even the imperial concubine has nothing to say. "

Zhu Yijun's eyes were fixed: "Are you implying that the imperial concubine is involved in politics?"

This sentence obviously had the meaning of questioning or even coercion. If it was someone else, after the king said this, I am afraid that he would have to tremble with fear.However, Gao Wushi looked calm, and said: "Perhaps the imperial concubine has no intention of intervening in politics, but if her own son has the opportunity to win the world, wouldn't she still object? As long as she doesn't object, wouldn't the emperor want to make it happen?"

Zhu Yijun was at a loss for words for a while, and then he sighed after a while: "You are right, but isn't this human nature?"

Gao Wushi said: "I have a question for the Pope: It is true that ants are greedy for life, but once the Ming Dynasty sends troops, no matter where the troops are sent, there will always be soldiers who die in battle. Of course these people who died in battle also want to live. Could "common sense" be a reason for them to flee?"

He sighed softly: "As a human being, there are things to do and things not to do. This is true for those who are as cheap as soldiers, and the same is true for those who are as expensive as the Son of Heaven."

Zhu Yijun didn't speak for another long time, and finally said for a long time: "Forget it, it's meaningless to talk about it now. Since the Queen is willing to see a doctor, I naturally have no intention of objecting." , when the queen has a son-in-law, I don't have to think about these troubles anymore."

Gao Wushi nodded, and said: "What the emperor said is very true. If it can be done like this, it will be a great fortune for everyone."

"What a blessing..." Zhu Yijun sighed when he thought of the various benefits of Concubine Zheng Huanggui.

Gao Wushi didn't intend to continue to provoke him, but just nodded slightly.

Perhaps Zhu Yijun wanted to distract himself, so he took a look at Gao Yushi, and suddenly said: "I heard that the reason why the queen has such a sudden change is because of Yao Yao's persuasion from time to time."

Gao Wushi didn't know why Zhu Yijun brought up this issue. In fact, Zhu Yijun had always known about Princess Yongning persuading the queen.Because of this, there is an obvious questioning intent in Gao Pragmatic's eyes.

Zhu Yijun waved his hand and said, "Come on, I want to ask..." He coughed lightly: "When was the last time you met Yao Yao?"

Gao Yushi's heart moved, and he said without changing his face: "It's been a while."

Zhu Yijun nodded, and said: "Yao Yao seems to be submissive, but in fact she is firm in heart, you know that. She has done this, logically speaking, I, the eldest brother, should also thank her..."

Gao Wushi couldn't figure out the meaning of his words, so he could only ask tentatively: "The emperor wants to give the farm? I remember that there are not many Huangzhuang left near the capital."

Zhu Yijun shook his head greatly: "What kind of farm is bestowed on you? It's not easy to spread the credit. Besides, if you give her a farm, it's not easy for Yao'e to talk about it. Of course, these are trivial matters. The key is that Yaoyao doesn't care about these things. Interesting, I remember that her income from closing the land is handed over to you to help take care of it?"

"Yes, I have helped to set up a fund for the income from His Royal Highness Princess Yongning's land. Part of it will be directly used for disaster relief, and the other part will be mostly used in the Tussah Women's Work School established in Liaodong."

"Well, I've also heard about this." Zhu Yijun nodded: "She can use it as she likes, and I don't care about her things."

Zhu Yijun hesitated for a while when he said this, and said: "Look... her princess mansion is empty now, and it stands to reason that as the master, there is nothing wrong with her staying here on weekdays, right?"

Gao Wushi felt even more strange, he didn't know what the emperor meant by mentioning this, but he still said: "As far as the ancestral system is concerned, the princess needs to be arranged by the female officials in the palace when she leaves the palace. Of course, if the emperor makes a special dispensation, there is no such rule Say no."

Zhu Yijun opened his mouth, hesitated for a while, and finally made up his mind, and said: "As a rule, outsiders are not allowed to enter the princess mansion, but... you should have a way to go?"

Gao Wushi was taken aback for a moment, then a little embarrassed, said: "This..."

"Okay, okay, I'm talking about this, it's not appropriate for you to be twitchy." Zhu Yijun straightforwardly said: "She is only this age, and she is either worshiping Buddha or taking care of Changchun Palace all day long. Those few dishes made me feel distressed. But if she stays in the Changchun Palace, it will be too difficult to see you. If she can be in the princess mansion, I know what kind of virtue those female officials are. They just want to make some money. Nothing will trouble you, so you can find a chance to go in and be with her."

Gao Wushi coughed lightly: "Your Majesty, is this just a whim or..."

"I just thought of it, but it's not a whim." Zhu Yijun shook his head and said, "I've been thinking about how to make up for the mistakes I made back then. Now that I think about it, it seems that this is more appropriate."

Gao Wushi nodded imperceptibly, but said nothing more.From his current standpoint, it's really hard to express his attitude, he can't be cheerful, right?

Seeing that he had no objection, Zhu Yijun knew that Gao Yushi did not reject such an arrangement.This made Zhu Yijun feel a little more at ease - at least you don't feel disgusted, I didn't force you to do this.

However, Gao Wushi really felt that it was a bit awkward to discuss this matter with the emperor, so he simply changed the subject and talked about the upcoming envoy Ye Hegong's entry to Beijing, and even mentioned the matter of Meng Gu Zhezhe.

After hearing this, Zhu Yijun couldn't help laughing: "The Yehe family has some vision. They have caravans all over Jurchen, and they control Beiguan. If they want to do a good job in this business, the most important thing to do is The thing probably depends on you, the God of Wealth. But I didn’t expect them to come up with such a trick, Nalinbulu, a barbarian, dares to think about being your uncle?"

Gao Wushi coughed lightly: "Your Majesty, the key to this matter is not business, but the minister originally suggested that the imperial court should support Ye He to replace Hada, maintain the strength of Nanbeiguan, and at the same time slightly suppress A little forgetful about Jianzhou. Now that Ye He suddenly does this, the minister's suggestion is..."

"Everything has a sequence." Zhu Yijun shook his head and said, "You suggested this before the Liaobei War, and they only thought of marrying you after the Liaobei War. If you have to talk about the cause and effect here , that is because they changed their original position after this battle and became more submissive, and then hoped to use you to maintain and close the relationship with my Ming court."

He waved his hand: "This is a good thing. It shows that Ye He has understood the truth and knows that it is not feasible to fight for the title of Lord of Manchuria by force. Now he is considering another way to achieve it."

Gao Wushi frowned slightly: "The emperor means hanging them?"

Zhu Yijun pondered for a while, and replied: "The lord of Manchuria... It's not impossible to give it. Meng Gebulu doesn't look like a capable person. Although Nalinbulu hasn't shown any outstanding talents yet. , but he can think of this move, it is already good, I think it is better than Meng Gebulu."

Gao Wushi couldn't explain to Zhu Yijun that Meng Gu Zhezhe was Huang Taiji's mother in the original history, so he had to act a little hesitant and asked, "Then should I agree or not?"

"It's a good thing, why didn't you agree?" Zhu Yijun said in surprise, "It's just a concubine. Would you treat Ye He as one of your own because of this?"
