My uncle's name is Zhu Di

Chapter 4 The Queen's Arrival
The emperors before Lao Zhu could have many reign names. For example, there were more than a dozen madmen like Wu Zetian who changed the reign name, and the reasons for changing the reign name were also various. According to rumors, because I was too satisfied with a certain male favorite, so I changed the year name to Ruyi...

Of course, when the emperor changed his year name, he had to rewrite the calendar, and the official documents of the court had to be adjusted accordingly, which greatly increased administrative costs, especially for the people, who had to adjust accordingly, which would inevitably disturb the people.

Therefore, Lao Zhu, who is thrifty by nature, no longer changed the year name, but one emperor and one number.

Since the Ming Dynasty, a certain emperor can be called by the title of the year.

Therefore, the year name has become extremely important, that is, the name of the emperor.

Zhu Di had just succeeded in Jing Nan, ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, so he got the reign title of a rebel, which felt like eating two catties of rat shit.Don't talk about the depression.

Zhu Gaoxu was also stupid, he really checked to see if there were any duplicates, but the problem is that he only looked at the orthodox dynasty, the rebels like Fang La, who knows what his year name is?

"Stupid, why don't you grow some snacks?"

Zhu Di's pupils were bloodshot, and he was really angry. He was different from the normal successor emperor, and he had the same reign as the rebels. It was conceivable that he was furious.

It was the first time that Zhu Gaoxu saw his father so scary, he hurriedly lay down on the ground and kowtowed loudly, "Father, if you don't do anything about sons and ministers, it's all about the Ministry of Rites, and the Hanlin Academy... my son, go and arrest them now, all of them Chop off your head to vent your anger!"

After finishing speaking, Zhu Gaoxu got up and was about to run outside. Killing people was the second priority. The key was to escape from the angry Zhu Di as soon as possible.

"and many more!"

Xu Jingchang stopped Zhu Gaoxu, turned quickly to Zhu Di, and said, "Your Majesty, I only vaguely remember that I have been obsessed with my father's funeral for the past few days, and I can't extricate myself. Now that Your Majesty is here, I occasionally think about it, and I don't know right or wrong. Now that the enthronement edict has been promulgated, I think His Majesty should first check to see if what I said is correct. Even if I am right, please think twice before acting..."

Zhu Di raised his brows, he was [-]% convinced that those civil servants who were still thinking about Emperor Jianwen might indeed use this method to put eye drops on themselves.

He thought that it would be difficult for Jing to succeed, and sitting on the dragon chair, the world would listen to him, but now he looked at it, but he thought it was easy.

There is still a long way to go!
Zhu Di pondered over and over again, and finally he didn't have an attack, but squeezed out two words from between his teeth, "Go back to the palace."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Di left angrily. At this moment, he was like a volcano that could erupt at any time, extremely dangerous.But the unlucky Zhu Gaoxu had to follow behind.Always waiting for the monstrous rage.

This taste is really sour, and now he can no longer care about the Xu family's affairs, he just wants to protect himself.

Seeing their backs going away, Xu Jingchang wished he could follow them, but this kind of thing was related to Zhu Di's face, and the emperor didn't want to make it public before he made a decision.

But even so, Xu Jingchang was in a good mood, and even found a purple bamboo fishing rod left by his father. Judging from the workmanship alone, Xu Zengshou was also a fun guy.

Now that we are still in mourning, Xuanwu Lake cannot be visited, so we can try our hand at the pond in the back garden of Xu’s family.

Finally, I can live a superb life of fishing all day without worrying about food and clothing.

This is the real honor!
It's a pity that Xu Jingchang was not happy for a day. The news came that Empress Xu had entered Beijing!
Xu Jingchang was also taken aback. Before Zhu Di came to the throne, he sent letters to his aunt. It was not a short way from Beiping to Yingtian. It would be nice if Luanjia could reach Xuzhou.

It took only three days to send out my own letter, so it came too fast, right?
Xu Jingchang really guessed right. After getting the news, Empress Xu's general door tiger girl brought only ten followers, showed the vigor of Prime Minister Cao to chase Uncle Liu Huang, and traveled five hundred miles a day, directly to Yingtian.

And after entering Beijing, he didn't go to the imperial palace, but directly came to Xu Mansion.

"I pay my respects to the empress."

Xu Jingchang hurriedly saluted his aunt, and quickly invited her into the study to take a seat.

Empress Xu looked at her eldest nephew, and said directly: "Stop talking nonsense, you wrote to me and said two things, one is about the eldest brother, and the other is about the second. You ask me what to do , I want to ask you now, how did you plan?"

Xu Jingchang considered it for a while, and said, "Empress, this matter..."

"Don't call me empress, I haven't been formally canonized yet. You call me aunt in your letter, this is kind, no matter what time it is, we are a family." Empress Xu expressed her opinion.

Xu Jingchang shook his head, and hurriedly said: "Thank you, aunt, and my nephew boldly said that these two things are actually the same. As long as the position of the crown prince is settled and the King of Han's unreasonable thoughts are dispelled, the world will naturally be peaceful."

Empress Xu raised her head suddenly, stared at Xu Jingchang, and snorted, "Why are you so sure that the King of Han cannot be the crown prince? He is also my son, and His Majesty likes him, and he has prestige in the army. Could it be that just because he offended the Xu family? Can you not become the heir apparent?"

Xu Jingchang hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Auntie, my nephew wouldn't dare to divorce the mother and son of the Tian family. I just think that if His Royal Highness becomes the heir, the aunt's sons will be safe and sound, but if the king of Han is allowed to ascend the throne, with his style , I’m afraid they won’t be merciful. It won’t be the mere Xu family who will die then.”

Empress Xu took a sharp breath, her expression changed again and again, and finally she sighed heavily.

Zhu Gaochi is benevolent, he is the crown prince, and his elder brothers can live.

Zhu Gaoxu is ruthless, for the sake of being the crown prince, he can kill his uncle without hesitation, cut grass and roots, and when he becomes emperor, he won't kill all his brothers!
In fact, Xu Jingchang had already implicitly expressed this meaning in the letter. Because of this, Empress Xu couldn't wait to see Xu Jingchang.The life of the elder brother is very important, but the struggle between the two sons made her exhausted and distressed.

"Jingchang, what you said is reasonable, but now all the generals in the army support the King of Han. As a mother, I can't force His Majesty to do things even if I have biases. Do you understand my difficulty?"

Xu Jingchang nodded and said: "My nephew understands, but my nephew thinks that this matter is not so troublesome and can be easily resolved."

"Easy?" Empress Xu snorted, "In the history of seizing the heirloom, brothers kill each other, father and son turn against each other, how can it be easy?"

Xu Jingchang said: "Although it is difficult to say what will happen in the future, His Royal Highness's reserve position is determined by the Taizu Emperor, and His Majesty is a filial son of the Taizu. As long as this matter is mentioned to His Majesty, His Royal Highness's reserve position will be stable. .As for what will happen next, His Majesty is in the prime of his life, so you can take your time."

Empress Xu was shocked again, she thought for a moment, and couldn't help nodding and smiling.

Indeed, my nephew is not easy!
The position of Zhu Gaochi's son was conferred by Zhu Yuanzhang when he was alive.

From the son to the prince, it is a matter of course.

Especially when it comes to Zhu Di, he has just succeeded in Jing Nan, and he always advertises himself as Zhu Yuanzhang's most caring and good son.One of the reasons why Jing Nan raised troops was also that Zhu Yunwen, under the instigation of traitors, destroyed the ancestral system and violated Zhu Yuanzhang's will.

All in all, no matter people or things at this time, as long as they are involved with Lao Zhu, they will become sacred and inviolable.

"What you said is reasonable, so I just tell His Majesty directly? Is it appropriate?"

Xu Jingchang thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Auntie, if you want, you can find a way to get a will."

"Get a copy?" Empress Xu was shocked, "You asked me to forge a will?"

"It's not a forgery, it's just a draft edict, which roughly means that the emperor Taizu wants to make the fourth son of the emperor as the heir...and then write in this edict that the fourth son Yan Wang is wise and wise, and the emperor's grandson Gao Chi is honest and benevolent. , that's enough."

In the past few years, Empress Xu has led the army to defend the city, organized logistics, and comforted people's hearts. She has also tempered it.

Obtaining a copy of Zhu Yuanzhang's will is tantamount to saying that Zhu Di's succession to the throne is a matter of course.

It was those traitors who violated the last wish of the Taizu and insisted on supporting Zhu Yunwen as the superior, so the battle of Jingnan happened.

Believe it or not, it has to be done.

By the way, Zhu Gaochi was added in, as long as Zhu Di accepted this so-called will, Zhu Gaochi's position as the crown prince would also be confirmed by the way.

Empress Xu looked at her young nephew, and said after a long time: "Son, I haven't seen you in four or five years. You have grown up so much, and your mind has opened up. Auntie is so amazed!"

Xu Jingchang was taken aback, did he feel that he was a little too smart?
"Auntie, what do you think my nephew can do? My father is gone, and even if my uncle survives, he won't be reused. With such a big Xu family, my nephew is really trembling, like walking on thin ice, like facing an abyss... I, I should How do you keep this home?" Xu Jingchang's voice was sad.

Hearing this, Empress Xu also had red eyes. The elder brother is in death row, the fourth younger brother died tragically, and the Xu family doesn't even have a man who can set up a family.

"Your Majesty, it's hard to be quiet, but the Xu family is gone." Empress Xu snorted, "Don't worry, with my aunt here, there is no one in the Ming Dynasty who can bully the Xu family. I will write a letter to Gao Chi later, and I will send you to the Xu family." I told him what I said. You are also brothers, and you will support each other in the future, so my aunt will feel relieved."

Xu Jingchang nodded hurriedly, "As long as my aunt orders, my nephew will definitely do it."

Empress Xu smiled, "Okay, it's time for me to go to the palace to see your majesty, you are so capable, aunt will definitely find you a good job, no one should underestimate the Xu family!"

Xu Jingchang paused and said: "My nephew is still in mourning, the key is with the King of Han, and I hope my aunt can take care of him."

"Take care of him?" Empress Xu was puzzled, "Aren't you supporting the boss?"

Xu Jingchang said: "That's Li Chu, we are still relatives. He misused Fang La's year name, His Majesty was furious."

Hearing this, Empress Xu's anger rose instantly...
