The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 155 Zhu Yuanzhang's Luxurious Carriage (Ask for a monthly ticket at the end of the year)

At this moment, in the Jinshen Hall behind Fengtian Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang is reading a book for morning class.

But for a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't turn a page. His mind was no longer on this book, and he couldn't help but fly his thoughts to his grandson.

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was smiling to himself, an eunuch came back to report.

"Your Majesty, His Highness Changsun has woken up."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard the words, he came back to his senses and couldn't help asking: "The new clothes we prepared for Dasun, Dasun likes it."

"I like it. His Highness, grandson, likes it very much. His Highness looked at it in front of the bronze mirror for a long time, always smiling." The clever little eunuch replied.

Zhu Yuanzhang was even happier when he heard the words.

Yesterday's Zhu Yuanzhang slept really soundly. He didn't know how many years he had never slept so comfortably.

Especially after the eldest son Zhu Biao left, he couldn't sleep every day and night, and could only rely on memorials to numb himself. He was really sleepy, so he went to sleep.

Sleeping for less than three hours a day, the damage to the body is inestimable.

If it wasn't for having a good physical foundation when I was young, I would have crossed it long ago, or I was holding on with one breath.

He knew that he couldn't fall down yet. Once he fell, the huge Ming Dynasty would be plunged into a round of huge turmoil.

The moment Zhu Yuanzhang woke up in the morning, he thought he was dreaming, but he didn't realize it was real until he saw the grandson next to him.

Seeing grandson sleeping beside him, Zhu Yuanzhang got up lightly without disturbing grandson.

After asking Liu He, I found out that Dasun stayed by his side yesterday and went to bed very late.

Zhu Yuanzhang told Liu He not to disturb the eldest grandson. This was the first time that the eldest grandson came back to sleep in ten years.

Naturally, I need to sleep more.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who got up first, wanted to cancel this morning court.

But thinking of some suggestions put forward by Dasun, Zhu Yuanzhang still felt that he should discuss with the ministers.

Whether it is the policy of separating the military from the government, or the proposal on the imperial examination, these are very important to Ming Dynasty today.

The matter of the imperial examination can still be postponed. After all, the compilation of teaching plans also takes time, and it cannot be done overnight.

But with regard to the separation of the military and the government, it is indeed very important, pointing directly to the core of power.

Zhu Yuanzhang, from the beginning of the army to the founding of the country, understood the importance of military power very well. If the emperors of future generations can be used, they can have a strong control over the military power of Ming Dynasty.

Then no matter what problems you encounter, you don't need to worry about it, just like Dasun said, the big deal is to change the civil servants.

If this kind of thought of governing the country is passed on, Daming will have a very long inheritance.

When the morning court was about to start, Zhu Yuanzhang got the news again that the eldest grandson was going to Tianjie Temple and asked someone to prepare a car.

"My grandson travels, take our carriage, it's more comfortable to sit in."

"Let Liu He quickly choose a good girl for our eldest grandson. Our eldest grandson blamed us yesterday, saying that it was about finding a wife, and it should be about our grandpa."

"The best thing is to make a list for us in the next few days. Let's show it to grandson and see which girl he likes the most."

"The minister obeys the order."

Zhu Ying walked towards Qianqing Gate, the carriage was already waiting in front of the gate.

"Jiang Yu, do you want to go there with me?" Zhu Ying couldn't help asking casually as she watched Jiang Yu following her all the time.

"Your Highness, His Majesty ordered the minister to serve His Highness." Jiang Yu bowed back.

Now Jiang Yu is almost entirely focused on Zhu Ying. Although his name has not yet been rectified, a blind person can see that His Royal Highness Ding Sun is the future Emperor of Ming, there is no doubt about it.

Zhu Ying was not surprised, and soon arrived in front of Qianqing's gate.

However, looking at the carriage parked below, the whole person was a little confused.

In front of the gate of Qianqing, there are thirty guards in brocade clothes, and four Tiqi at the front and back.

This number of people is nothing, it is relatively small, and the key lies in the carriage.

What kind of carriage is this? This is clearly a caravan.

This is a four-wheeled carriage, the whole body is cast in copper, with dragons and phoenixes on the roof, and various carvings on the whole body, like two small houses, surrounded by fences.

There are eight horses in the front frame, and the eight tall horses are all white without a single color.

From the outside, there are two parts inside the car, the front looks like a tea room, the incense has been lit, and the rear has a bed with a mattress on it.

Around the carriage, there are vertical vines, which can block privacy.

This kind of car is probably the top luxury in Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Ying looked at it for a long while, and then came back to his senses.

"This is His Majesty's traveling carriage. His Majesty is preparing for the morning court at the Jinshen Hall. Knowing that His Majesty is going to the Tianjie Temple, he specifically asked the minister to arrange it."

In front of the carriage was the eunuch Guo Zhong, the supervisor of ceremonies and Bingbi, who could be regarded as an old acquaintance of Zhu Ying.

When Zhu Ying reviewed the memorials in the courtyard by the Qinhuai River, Guo Zhong was always by his side.

Zhu Ying was silent.

Good guy, you call this a carriage?
But after reacting, Zhu Ying was a little eager to try.

After all, this carriage, in today's world, can be regarded as a top-notch car, it is luxurious enough.

Zhu Ying walked up calmly, Guo Zhong followed, and Jiang Yu got on his horse.

"Your Highness, are you leaving now?" Jiang Yu immediately lowered his head and asked.

Zhu Ying nodded slightly.

Immediately under Jiang Yu's order, the carriage moved slowly.

Guo Zhong at the side started to make tea for Zhu Ying, and there were even various snacks on the table.

However, just when Zhu Ying was about to enjoy it, Guo Zhong took out a bunch of memorials from the carriage, and said with trepidation:
"Your Highness, this is a pastime that His Majesty brought to Your Highness and watched on the way."

Zhu Ying paused for a while with the hand holding the dim sum.

Good old man, this is the time to let me share the memorial.

The combination of snacks and tea is considered early, but Zhu Ying is not satisfied with the pastry.

Then he told Jiang Yu, who was following on horseback outside, "Jiang Yu, send someone to my house to inform Uncle Zhang, and ask him to prepare to deliver it to me early."

"Follow the order." After Jiang Yu finished replying, he immediately stepped forward and gave instructions to Tiqi in front.

Under Jiang Yu's arrangement, two Tiqi immediately left the team, began to speed up, and galloped forward with their horses.

Zhu Ying is a person who can enjoy.

Ever since she established her own power and had enough money, Zhu Ying has never treated herself badly in all aspects of life.

Even if the capital doesn't allow you to wear satin clothes, Zhu Ying's underwear is also made of silk, just covered with a layer of linen.

Not to mention the cost of eating and drinking.

After all, from Beiping to the capital, Zhu Ying didn't bring many people with him. At the beginning, all the cooks in the teahouse followed Zhu Ying.

For example, all kinds of fine wines in the house, including seasonings and other supplies, were also sent by the people from the nearest Qunying Chamber of Commerce in the first place.

In Zhu Ying's words, after coming to Daming for so many years, can't I enjoy it?

Thinking of this, Zhu Ying pushed the memorial aside without hesitation, and said, "Let's put it away for now. I haven't eaten breakfast, so I'm not in the mood to read it for the time being."

Regarding this, Guo Zhong only smiled wryly: "Yes, Your Highness."

The luxurious and extravagant emperor's car, the four-wheeled caravan, appeared in the palace, but when all the court ladies and eunuchs on the road saw it, they stopped and bowed to wait, and continued walking after the emperor's carriage left.

Even the school lieutenant who was patrolling in the palace knelt down on one knee and waited with his head bowed.

Exiting the Daming Palace from the Qianqing Gate is through the rear left gate, passing through Jinshen Hall, Huagai Hall, and Fengtian Hall, and then arriving at Fengtian Square through the middle left gate.

When Zhu Ying arrived at Jinshen Hall, the carriage stopped.

Zhu Ying got down from the carriage, and learned from Guo Zhong that the old man is currently in the Jinshen Palace, and he is passing by, of course he wants to say hello.

The eunuch at the gate saw Zhu Ying and hurried in to report, and naturally no one dared to stop Zhu Ying from entering.

In fact, in the circle of eunuchs and court ladies, especially those around Zhu Yuanzhang, there is no stranger to Zhu Ying's appearance now.

To a certain extent, it is basically difficult to hide the whole matter of the Daming Palace from them.

However, there are rules in the palace, the first thing to do when entering the palace, someone will teach you what it means to keep your mouth shut.

It doesn't mean that you can yell casually if you know it. If you can't find out, basically all the court ladies and eunuchs in the suspicious range will be executed directly, without any sympathy.

"grandfather."

When Zhu Ying walked in, Zhu Yuanzhang had already stood up to greet him.

"I slept comfortably. When we got up, I didn't wake you up." Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a smile.

The whole person looks very energetic, the turbidity in the eyes has faded a lot, and even the complexion is extremely rosy and healthy.

"It's comfortable, but I didn't see grandpa when I got up in the morning, so I almost thought I was still in a dream." Zhu Ying replied with a smile.

He also didn't mention about the long dream last night. For now, the relationship between the two of them doesn't need other things to assist.

"Our carriage is not bad, isn't it majestic enough?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked out the window and said.

"Prestige, really prestige, such a luxurious carriage, my grandson has never seen it before."

Zhu Ying couldn't help sighing.

Even in later generations, he has never seen such a luxurious carriage. You must know that this thing is purely handcrafted.

Even when she was sitting on the carriage, Zhu Ying didn't feel any strong vibrations, which meant that the design of the carriage definitely had special shock-absorbing skills.

Although such a large four-wheeled carriage is very troublesome to turn, it depends entirely on the driver's driving skills.

In fact, this also has an advantage, that is, it is almost always going straight, and it will feel more comfortable.

"Okay, our morning court is about to start. Let's talk about the policy on the separation of military and government that you said before, grandson, at the morning court."

"Let's see what the ministers think, and we will have a good discussion then."

Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Zhu Ying nodded and replied: "Okay, then the grandson will go to Tianjie Temple first."

Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated and asked, "Are you still coming to sleep tonight?"

After Zhu Ying heard this, she thought for a while and said, "Just a few days later, grandson also needs to deal with the chamber of commerce under his command."

A trace of regret flashed in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, but he didn't say much.

Zhu Ying left from Jinshen Hall, then sat in the carriage and headed all the way to Tianjie Temple.

In the 21st year of Hongwu, the Tianjie Temple was burned. Zhu Yuanzhang rebuilt the temple in Fengshan in the south of the city, about [-] miles away from the Daming Palace.

Even if it is easier to walk, it will take almost half a day to go back and forth.

Just when Zhu Ying took a luxury carriage, passed through Fengtian Square, and almost arrived at Fengtianmen.

Zhu Yunqi just came out from the middle left door.

The Hall of Spring Harmony is the East Palace.It is located on the east side of the right side of Fengtian Hall.

It is not too far from Chunhemen to Fengtianmen.

As the current grandson of the emperor, Zhu Yunqi was of course stuck in court. Basically, it was the civil and military officials who arrived at the Fengtian Hall, so they came here in a leisurely manner.

"Hey, isn't Grandpa Huang planning to go to court early today? He went out so early."

Of course he knew Grandpa Huang's carriage, but Grandpa Huang himself didn't use it very much, and he never sat in it.

Seeing the carriage going to Fengtianmen, Zhu Yunqi said with some doubts.

Huang Zicheng, who was next to him, was also a little puzzled when he heard this.

It stands to reason that if His Majesty cancels the early court, eunuchs will come to notify him, and he will not have to wait like other officials.

"No, look, Your Highness, all the officials have already entered the palace."

Huang Zicheng looked up to the front of Fengtian Hall, there were no more ministers there.

Such a situation can only show that His Majesty has started the early dynasty.

If His Majesty is not here, the eunuch who is in charge of ceremonies will come out to read it before the morning court, and the morning court will be postponed today.

Since you can go in, it means that the morning court must have been opened.

"Then who just went out? This is the carriage of the emperor's grandfather, who would dare to ride in it privately." Zhu Yunqi asked with some doubts.

As for the situation around the carriage just now, there were still Tiqis following around, obviously it was only because someone was riding.

Huang Zicheng frowned slightly, and couldn't help asking the eunuch who was following Zhu Yunqi:
"Do you know what happened in the palace last night?"

The young lady listened to this question, and replied with a trembling voice: "Reporting to Huang Hanlin, this servant doesn't know anything."

Hearing this, Huang Zicheng and Zhu Yunqi glanced at each other and immediately noticed something was wrong.

It is too obvious that there is no silver 300 taels here.

Zhu Yunwen sternly reprimanded: "Tell me, what happened in the palace last night, and who was the person in the carriage."

ps: Riwan is reached, the monthly pass is coming soon, hurry up, wake up tomorrow and continue.
