Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 188 The King of Han changed his title!

"Third Uncle Mu, Uncle Mu, what's the matter? Can you two come here together?"

In the reception room of Prince Han's Mansion, Zhu Gaoxu and his son looked at the Mu brothers with the same confusion on their faces.

"His Royal Highness the King of Han, His Highness the Crown Prince." Mu Sheng stood up and took out two things from his sleeves.

"Your Majesty sent someone to send the edict and imperial decree urgently within eight hundred miles."

Zhu Gaoxu and his son looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.

There is Zhang Fu in the Japanese state, and Zhu Zhanhe has said that he will go there again this year, but it is definitely not recently, and other problems have been almost solved. If there is no edict at this time, is there still an imperial edict?
Not only did Zhu Gaoxu not guess, but even Zhu Zhanhe didn't guess what the old man was thinking.

It was useless to think about it, Zhu Zhanhe stood up, took the imperial edict and edict directly from Mu Ang's hand, and opened it directly to read.

Mu Ang and Mu Xin have no opinion on this kind of practice that has no rules and etiquette at all, because this is not the first time.

"Dad, take a look."

After a while, Zhu Zhanhe finished reading the imperial edict and the imperial edict, and then handed the imperial edict and edict to his father with a meaningful smile on his face.

Zhu Gaoxu had a strange look on his face, because he didn't know what caused his son to show such an expression.

However, when he saw the contents of the edict, he could no longer sit still and stood up suddenly.

Holding the imperial edict in his hand, the edict was knocked to the ground by Zhu Gaoxu's movements, which made Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly pick it up and hold it in his arms as if it were a treasure.

A few words were vaguely revealed on the opened imperial edict, and the words "Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the edict said" as well as "canonized" and "King Wu" could be vaguely seen.

"Thank you, Third Uncle Mu and Uncle Mu." Compared to his father's gaffe, Zhu Zhanhe was very calm.

"I won't leave you two alone today. You two also know what this means to my father, so you two don't have any dissatisfaction."

"After two days, we father and son will come to the door to thank us in person."

"His Royal Highness is serious." Mu Ang and Mu Xin hurriedly bowed.

They didn't dare to put on airs with Zhu Zhanhe before, and they don't dare to do it now.

There is no other reason than that the title of the King of Han was changed.

Historically, Zhu Gaoxu was named the Prince of Gaoyang during the Hongwu period because he was still the second son of King Yan at that time. According to the etiquette of the Ming Dynasty, the prince's son and eldest son was the prince, and the other sons could only be princes.

Later, Zhu Dijing succeeded in his victory and ascended the throne. Zhu Gaoxu also changed from a county king to a prince, and his title was changed from the Gaoyang County Prince to the King of Han. It has not been changed since then.

However, that was in history, and it is different now.

The contents of the edict and imperial edict are very simple. The title of King of Han on Zhu Gaoxu’s head will disappear after that, and will be replaced by...

King Wu!

King Wu seems to be just a title, but it has a special meaning to the Ming Dynasty and the Zhu family, especially the Zhu family in the early Ming Dynasty.

Because Zhu Yuanzhang, the great emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was titled King Wu before he ascended the throne!
Now, Zhu Di changed the title of King of Han to King of Wu. The hidden meaning...

"Okay, what are you so happy about?" After sending Mu Ang and Mu Xin off, Zhu Zhanhe looked at his father in confusion.

"The title King of Wu does have a special meaning, but there is no precedent before you. Didn't the current Zhou King Zhu Rui and the previous Zhu Yunxi have been canonized as King of Wu?"

"You go aside!" Zhu Gaoxu pushed his son aside mercilessly, looking at the edict and edict in his hand with a treasured expression.

"How can Uncle Wu's title of King of Wu be the same as this one? He was conferred in Hongwu for three years, but changed his title within a few years. It's not like you don't understand how favored Prince Yiwen was at that time. What does this title mean?"

"As for Zhu Yunxi, that's even more nonsense. His title as King of Wu is just a comfort given to Zhu Yunxi by that little bastard Jianwen. It's all scheming."

"Look at what we have in our hands now. Can you not understand what your grandfather is thinking?"

Zhu Zhanhe smiled silently.

On this point, my father is really not confused.

Generally speaking, an emperor is very concerned about his title before he ascended the throne, and would not be canonized casually, such as Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin was the King of Qin before he succeeded to the throne, but after he succeeded to the throne, he never named the King of Qin again. After that, there was no second King of Qin in the entire Tang Dynasty.

Another example is the current Zhu Di. He was the King of Yan before he ascended the throne. After that, there was no second King of Yan in the Ming Dynasty.

The original King of Wu, who is now the King of Zhou, Zhu Biao, was not yet dead when he was canonized as King of Wu. Zhu Yuanzhang had nothing to do with his personal emotions or the overall situation. Qualified, so Zhu Rui's original title as King of Wu was just a title with no special meaning.

But Zhu Yunxi, the son of Prince Yiwen and the brother of Emperor Jianwen, was a little different.

Many people only know that Zhu Yunwen was the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, but few people know that, strictly speaking, Zhu Yunwen's succession was not justified.

The eldest son of Prince Yiwen, that is, the first son of Princess Yiwen Chang's family is Zhu Xiongying, who died young. Zhu Yunxi is the second son of Princess Yiwen, and Zhu Yunqi is the son of the Lu family who was later strengthened. .

I believe that by this point, many people will see the problem.

According to the rules of the feudal era, Zhu Xiongying was the eldest son, and Zhu Yunxi should be the second son. If the eldest son died young, the inheritance of the family business should be deferred to the second son, Zhu Yunxi.

But the problem lies with Lu who was righted.

Lu's being righted and became the main wife means that her son is also a legitimate son, and Zhu Yunxuan is older than Zhu Yunxiu.

Therefore, after Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne, Zhu Yunxi was canonized as King of Wu. This was Zhu Yunwen's comfort to Zhu Yunxi, his half-brother, and it could even be said to be a mockery.

But Zhu Gaoxu is different.

"Okay, go and be happy on your own, I'll go out for a while." Zhu Zhanhe looked at his father, although what he said was very mean, but there was also the meaning of being happy for his father in his tone.

"It's just a title given by the King of Wu, not the King of Yan. As for..."

"Get out!" Zhu Gaoxu was so angry that he almost threw the edict and imperial decree at Zhu Zhanhe's head.

The title of King Yan is not something that can be given casually, and it is not something that Zhu Gaoxu can think of now.

As the title of the current emperor Zhu Di before he ascended the throne, and Zhu Di only had three sons, the third son, King Zhao, was still very unsatisfactory.

In this case, if the title of King Yan appears, it proves that the old man plans to make a deposit easily.

And now the position of the crown prince is still very stable. The King of Han...oh no, in the future it will be the lineage of King Wu. Although it is also valued, it is far from the point where it is easy to store.

Therefore, the title of King Wu is the greatest kindness that the old man can give.
