Daming: If I find a great-grandson, I will teach an emperor through the ages

Chapter 252: Will there be any problems if cousins ​​get married?

Zhu Chu acted very quickly. Early in the morning, before the other feudal princes had even gotten up from bed, he had already told the servants of the Zongren Mansion his conditions and requirements.

On the other side, Zhu Xiongying moved faster. The court meeting had almost not even started. The other vassal kings had just climbed out of bed and asked for breakfast for the day from the servants in the sect's mansion. They had already sent people to take Zhu Chu out.

Upon hearing the commotion, all the vassal kings rushed over without stopping and watched with their own eyes the eunuch and Zhu Zhen walked out of the courtyard.

The corners of Zhu Xi's mouth twitched. He wanted to step forward and ask Zhu Xi why he couldn't hold on for a while longer.

The other vassal kings also had different expressions, some looked indignant, some were thoughtful, and some looked envious.

How could the feudal king, who was always aloof and aloof, ever suffer this kind of pain? They have been trapped for six or seven days with no freedom at all, and the food they eat every day is far worse than before.

Seeing Zhu Ming about to go out at this time, it is unrealistic to say that everyone is envious.

Zhu Chu bowed his hands to the vassal kings who were coming over, and said with a somewhat embarrassed smile:

"Brothers, I am in poor health and cannot stay in this sect's house for a long time. How many days have I lived here? I am starting to feel dizzy. If I stay for a few more days, I am afraid my life will be in danger. I am like all the brothers. Advance or retreat, but in the final analysis, it is just a throne, and it is not worth sacrificing your life, so this time I will go out first, find an opportunity to talk to His Majesty, and see if I can release everyone as well."

No one knows if he will be the next one to be unable to hold on, so if he says those words again, won’t he be a slap in the face?

Once the vassal king falls, their interests will also be damaged. In the past few days, many people have been interceding for the vassal kings in the court, citing ancient systems.

Suddenly the entire hall fell silent, and the ministers looked at Zhu Xiongying on the dragon throne with confusion.

Zhu Xi left the clan mansion, and the eunuch who led him out asked him to wait in the study. After Zhu Xiongying left the court, he would discuss with him the takeover of military power in Yunnan.

Mainly because he saw Zhu Xiongying's determination to carry out restructuring this time, and knew that it couldn't be done, but he just didn't want to embarrass the brothers, so he kept going.

In the Ming Dynasty, you could contradict the current emperor Zhu Xiongying from time to time, but you could never confront the Supreme Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, because Zhu Xiongying was tolerant and Zhu Yuanzhang was not as easy to talk to as him.

Zhu Xiongying was also a little surprised when he heard Zhu Xi asked for a meeting.

"Xuan." Zhu Xiongying raised his hand.

King Zhu Zhu of Zhou felt a little amused when he saw Zhu Shu's half-hearted look. This guy was talking nicely, so he might be the next one to submit.

Although he said this, his eyes flickered, and it was obvious that he meant something different.

What Zhu Ming said could be said to have given Zhu Xiongying enough face to take all the problems on himself and take the initiative to admit his mistakes in front of civil and military officials.

Then Zhu Chu's figure entered the main hall and walked to the front of two rows of hundreds of officials.

"This, this..." Zhu Shu pointed at the gate and said dissatisfiedly: "This is too outrageous for the 18th. He handed over the royal power so easily. Isn't he deliberately making it difficult for us?"

...

Zhu Xiongying's turbulent restructuring this time has imprisoned all the vassal princes in the clan mansion, and many civil and military officials are also anxious.

If Zhu Zhen didn't go to the study to wait for him, what was he doing in the palace? Could it be that things were different from what he thought?

It's just that Zhu Xiongying didn't listen, and Zhu Yuanzhang also showed support for his grandson, which made his voice much quieter.

It's just that it's unclear whether Zhu Chu will actually do this after he goes out.

Zhu Ming bowed respectfully. According to common sense, he only had to bend down.

"Oh!"

After chatting for a few words, the feudal princes returned to their respective residences. They no longer gathered together as before to talk about their duties to Zhu Xiongying.

The chief eunuch sang outside: "The king of Xuanmin, Zhu Xun, has an audience."

Zhu Chu cupped his hands and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have come to apologize to Your Majesty."

"Uncle Wang came to see me in the palace. What's the matter?" Zhu Xiongying asked.

Because Zhu Bian had already put all the blame on their vassal king, Zhu Xiongying was right and represented justice.

After saying that, Zhu Min followed the eunuch and swaggered along the wide corridor outside and out of the gate of the sect's mansion.

The mentality of King Zhou Zhu and Zhu Ji are actually similar, and royal power is not that important to him.

When the ministers saw Zhu Zhen bowing his head and admitting his mistake, they knew that the vassal kings had no chance of winning.

Zhu Xiongying's restructuring involved not only the vassal kings, but also many nobles in the court who were married to the vassal princes.

Didn't the emperor imprison all the vassal princes in the Zongren Mansion a while ago? Why did Zhu Chu escape?

After hearing what he said, the eunuch did not dare to neglect and led Zhu Zhu all the way to Fengtian Palace.

"Due to the development of national power and the changes of the times, the Ming Dynasty had trains and airplanes, and it was time to think about changes. Previously, your Majesty wanted to enfeoff the system, but I was ignorant and refused to hand over the royal power and military power. Your Majesty has to work day and night. Today, I I suddenly came to my senses and decided to hand over my royal power, as well as my military power. I only ask that your majesty can agree to one request."

Although what Zhu Ming did was a bit shameless, what he said was still level and watertight, leaving all the feudal lords with no excuse to have a fit.

"Min King Zhu Chu, please see your Majesty."

Zhu Ming waved his hand: "Don't go to such trouble. Take me to the palace. I will plead guilty to Your Majesty and hand over the military power."

Before Zhu Xi and others who were standing in the distance could take a second look outside, the door of the Zongren Mansion was closed again.

"Your Majesty, Zhu Ming, is here to see you."

In the palace, Zhu Xiongying was discussing matters with the courtiers when he heard the announcement from outside.

If they really want to be locked up in this sect's mansion for three to five hundred years, these vassal kings will probably go crazy.

After all, Zhu Chu was still thinking about them after he went out, trying to resolve the situation for them.

Zhou Wang Zhu Ju and Zhu Di are brothers. Even if Zhu Di loses his royal power and lives a dissatisfied life in the Ming Dynasty, he can still go to Europe to seek refuge with Zhu Di. Zhu Di will never let him suffer any injustice.

Now that Zhu Zhen has admitted his mistake, if the other vassal kings do not bow their heads, they will be stubborn and the people of the world will think that they are bad people who delayed the Ming Dynasty's national affairs.

After Zhu Xiongying heard what Zhu Xi said, he felt relieved. It turned out that he was here to admit his mistake, so he was naturally very happy.

"If you have any requests, Uncle Wang, just ask."

"After I hand over my royal power and military power, I hope your Majesty can give me a house and let me settle down in Yingtian Mansion. Secondly, I want to continue to serve the court. Can your Majesty give me a corresponding official position so that I can make a home?" I will not be idle with nothing to do..."

After hearing this, Zhu Xiongying wanted to applaud.

I heard that Zhu Chu was a gangster in Yunnan in the past, which even gave Zhu Yuanzhang a headache. Later, Cao Wei went to Yunnan and caught Zhu Chu and taught him a lesson, and Zhu Chu gradually improved.

Looking at it now, Zhu Chu has not only gotten better, but his words and deeds are absolutely flawless! His mouth is full of the imperial court, and his heart is full of the Ming Dynasty. This is the wise minister of the Ming Dynasty!

"Okay!" Zhu Xiongying praised.

"I'm very relieved that Uncle Wang is willing to turn back. I agree to all Uncle Wang's requests!"

"In a while, I will ask people from the Ministry of Household Affairs to choose a piece of land for Uncle Wang to build a house. Uncle Wang can choose it. As for whether there are any vacancies in the court, I have to check carefully."

"Don't worry, I'll go to the Ministry of Household Affairs right now." After Zhu Chu finished speaking, he was about to leave. Zhu Xiongying was self-satisfied and said a few more words to praise Zhu Zhen for his righteousness and considering the overall situation before letting him leave.

After Zhu Chu left Fengtian Hall, he went straight to the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Although Zhu Zhen felt sorry for losing his royal power, he was fortunate to be able to make up for it elsewhere.

Cao Wei agreed to the marriage, and even if Zhu Zhen was no longer the vassal king, he could rely on his future son-in-law to live a comfortable life with his in-laws.

In this three-acre area of ​​​​Yingtian Mansion, Cao Wei's name is much easier to use than the vassal kings like them.

Moreover, Zhu Ming always felt that remote places like Yunnan could not be compared with the capital city of Yingtianfu.

Being the King of Min in Yunnan is really not as good as being an in-law of the Cao family in Yingtian. From now on, all local war affairs and chores will have nothing to do with him. Thinking of this, he feels a little relaxed.

He really made a wonderful move, Zhu Zhen thought.

When the vassal king handed over the royal power, he would inevitably decline. There was only one chance to turn around, and he seized it.

There was only one Cao Wei in the Ming Dynasty. If Zhu Zhen occupied it, he would lose the share of other vassal kings.

When Zhu Zhen handed over the royal power, he had both losses and profits. In total, he still made a lot of money. However, if Zhu Zhen and other vassal kings handed over the king's power under the circumstances in the future, they would only lose money.

When he came to the Ministry of Household Affairs, Zhu Ming found a person from the Ministry of Household Affairs to help him.

"I have met His Highness King Min." When the official saw Zhu Chu, he was about to salute, but Zhu Chu stopped him.

"I am no longer King Min. I may still be your subordinate in the future, so there is no need to salute."

Hubu Guishi was still digesting these words in his mind when Zhu Min spoke again and told him about Zhu Xiongying's promise to enclose the land and build a house.

Hu Bu nodded repeatedly, "Without further delay, let's go."

Turning around and taking the geographical atlas of Yingtian Mansion and some measuring tools, the Ministry of Revenue followed Zhu Zhen out of the palace and wandered around for a long time. The two of them circled a piece of land in Xifang City, Yingtian Mansion.

Now that Zhu Chu is no longer the King of Min, the size of the enclosure is definitely not as good as his Yunnan Palace. The only thing is that the location is not bad. It is only two streets away from Cao's Palace and behind Cao's Palace.

However, Zhu Xi is rich!

The precious calligraphy, paintings, jades, and antiques in his Yunnan palace are all still there. It is impossible for Zhu Xiongying not to leave any escape route for these vassal princes, and to plunder all their palaces.

Zhu Chu only had to repair a letter and send it to Yunnan, and asked his princess and her family to bring their valuables and move them here. It would be easy to buy a few more pieces of land for expansion. Anyway, he was not in a hurry to build this building. House.

After sending the household department away, Zhu Ming first went to a restaurant on the street and spent a lot of money.

In the past few days, their meals in Zongrengu have been watery and watery, and their mouths have long faded away.

After taking care of the temple of the five internal organs, Zhu Min rushed towards his future in-law, Cao Mansion...

When Master Cao returned to Cao Mansion from the Research Institute after a busy day, he saw Zhu Zhen sitting in the lobby of his home, and he guessed what happened.

"Oh, you released it so soon?" Cao Wei joked with a smile.

"How can I continue to be obsessed with the advice of the Grand Master?" Zhu Ming said with a smile, and poured a cup of tea for Cao Wei diligently, taking away the work of the servant.

"Tell me what you plan to do in the future."

"The grand master has agreed to the marriage between Mr. Cao and my daughter. What else can I plan? Of course, I will stay in Yingtian to support the grand master."

"I have already asked Your Majesty to circle a lot of land in the back street as a residence. After a while, I will ask Your Majesty to find a casual job for me. I will just have to eat and wait to die. It is no different from Yunnan."

Cao Wei frowned, "You are now in your prime, how can you be so lax and slack? Since His Majesty has arranged an official position for you, you should contribute to the country if you are the emperor. If you are so unmotivated, how can you set an example for the younger members of the family?" "

Zhu Ming made a bitter face and said: "Grand Master, I only have a daughter now, and I will marry her into your family in the future. The next one is only three months old and is still in her mother's belly. I don't even know if she is a boy or a girl..."

"Huh?" Cao Wei drank tea and glared. Zhu Ming immediately didn't dare to say anything anymore. He was not afraid of the current emperor Zhu Xiongying, but he was afraid of Zhu Yuanzhang and Cao Wei, because these two people had dealt with him.

"Okay, okay, Taishi, I understand. I will definitely make progress in the future..."

At this time, Zhu Ming regretted that he had decided to move the house too close to Cao's residence.

Cao Wei nodded with satisfaction.

In the evening, Cao Lin happened to come back from the Imperial College. After the servants prepared dinner, Cao Wei took Zhu Ming to sit at the dining table.

Students in the Imperial College have one day off every ten days, and Cao Lin has not been home for ten days. During the meal, Cao Wei asked about Cao Lin's study status.

As they talked, they talked about the marriage to Zhu Chu's daughter.

Cao Lin and Zhu Hanming were both surprised when they heard the news. Only Cao Yin was begging for food in Xiaoyu's arms.

Cao Wei was busy at the Research Institute yesterday and forgot about it when he came back. Even Zhu Hanming didn't know about it.

"Father, how could you do this!" Cao Lin was very dissatisfied with Cao Wei's unauthorized engagement.

"I've never even seen her face."

Cao Wei had nothing to say at this time and could only say with a straight face:

"It has been this way since ancient times when parents ordered matchmakers. Are you still aggrieved that I have arranged a marriage for you?"

"But...but, you told me before that you wanted to have free love!"

Cao Wei's expression remained unchanged, "This matter is special and should be discussed separately."

Cao Lin stared at Cao Wei, her chest heaving violently. In the end, she didn't have the guts to be disrespectful to Cao Wei. She dropped her chopsticks and said, "I'm full," and returned to the room.

Zhu Hanming glanced at Cao Wei, meaning, "I let you talk nonsense all day long, are you okay now?"

Cao Wei was also speechless. Who knew things would develop like this.

Cao Wei turned to look at Zhu Chu, who had his head buried in eating as soon as he sat down at the table. Cao Wei looked at him and said "Huh?" in confusion, as if he was heartless.

"Let me ask you, is your daughter really as you said, a fish and a goose, and the moon is over and the flowers are shy?"

Zhu Ming swallowed his rice, nodded and said: "This is natural, how dare I lie to the Grand Master?"

"Okay, keep eating."

"Oh."

Cao Wei looked at Zhu Chu's turmoil again and thought to himself, Cao Lin and Zhu Chu's daughters are cousins. Will there be any problems in giving birth to a child?

If it doesn't work, I'll marry him a concubine with two wives and let the concubine give birth...

孽 孽!
"Hey, Grand Master, why did you hit me?"

"You ate too much..."
