Chapter 448 Returning to the family after the wedding

On Zhu Chu's first day in court, everything went smoothly.

However, he is not in a hurry to carry out drastic reforms in national affairs immediately, and it is not appropriate to act too hastily now.

So Zhu Ming just made some arrangements for the kings, using them according to their aptitude, and whoever was good at it would do it.

As an emperor, you don't need to do everything yourself, but you must be able to recognize people and know who is suitable for what. This is the kingly way.

For example, the sixth brother Zhu Zhen was asked to be the supervisor of the country, so all the memorials for major and minor affairs were sent to Zhu Zhen.

Good guy, Zhu Zhen’s face turned dark, and I just took office. Do you want to exhaust me to death?

Zhu Yuanzhang was also speechless, and just watched Zhu Ming hurried to Kunning Palace after going down to court.

Hey, how about you go to Qianqing Palace or the side palace to show off and read a few memorials?
In fact, Zhu Chu still had a lot to do, and the most important thing at the moment was to accompany his wives back to their home.

Generally speaking, the bride will return home three days after the wedding, but some will return the next day.

The Imperial Guards quickly stopped him.

Shanda motorcade continued to move forward slowly.

Now that he has become the emperor, he directly inherited Zhu Yuanzhang's Luan Jia.

Outside the Xu Mansion, Xu Da himself and his family were already ready. When Luan Jia stopped, he immediately stepped forward in person to kowtow and salute.

In Kunning Palace, Xu Miaojin, Tang Xin and Mu Qiu are already waiting.

Zhu Ming didn't want to pay attention to this, but today he was accompanying his wife back home, which could be regarded as maintaining their dignity.

Although it is still February, the weather is on the cooler side.

And when the concubines in the harem returned to their parents' homes, they always made great fanfare.

The first concubine and the second concubine also knelt and sat behind him, all wearing phoenix crowns and harems. They were already peerless beauties, but now they have become even more majestic to the world.

Moreover, Zhu Zhen rode the "dragon chariot" with his three wives to create momentum for them.

What did that kid Li Gui do? Who can be fooled by this?

Suddenly, everyone who heard this question and answer shouted long live, and the shouts were thunderous in an instant.

So Luan Jia didn't cover himself.

This is the new emperor, who is not curious.

People either hid nearby or opened their windows to watch secretly.

Zhu Zhen sighed helplessly, fake, too fake.

Now Zhu Zhen can no longer be too close to the people. It should be noted that he is now the emperor. Once an assassination occurs, a large number of people will die, including the imperial guards around him, who will bear a huge responsibility.

It's not something to be ashamed of, there's no need to hide it.

Xu Huizu, his two younger brothers Xu Yingxu and Xu Zengshou, and his third sister Xu Miaozhen, who had not yet left the court, knelt to welcome the emperor.

So there should still be some pomp and circumstance.

As a result, Zhu Ming turned around and said calmly: "Fart, I am still me. Will I change someone when I become the emperor? Or is it because I stopped the carriage and was not listening to your appeal? I didn't expect you to question me. Come. You have three questions, and I have three answers. I love my people as much as I love them. Are you satisfied?"

So take advantage of the free time now to get everything done that needs to be done.

Suddenly, people rushed out with stabs.

Xu Da felt warm in his heart, feeling that Zhu Ming had not forgotten his roots, so he straightened up.

In addition to the queen's return home, this is also a street parade.

The man knelt down and looked up to the sky and shouted: "You are truly the emperor of the ages, long live long live long live."

Zhu Zhen didn't care about these details. He mainly knew that from now on, he would be busier and busier, and there would be no time for him to continue running outside.

"Master Zhang, please don't offend your son-in-law. You are Miaojin's father. We are husband and wife. You are also the father of Zhu Chu. There is no reason for a father to kneel down in front of his child. That would be like thunder from the sky. "Zhu Chu quickly stopped him.

It was a six-horse carriage, and there were palace attendants clearing the way. As the saying goes, the emperor must clean the streets when he goes out. This is not just talk.

"His Royal Highness the King of Dian, now that you are the emperor, will you continue to love the people like a son? Will you still be willing to listen to the voices of our people? Will you make decisions for our people?" the man shouted, asking three questions.

Isn’t this self-deception?
"Give him a few taels of silver, and then continue walking. The Xu Mansion should be ready to pick him up," Zhu Ming explained.

Luan Jia finally arrived at the Duke of Wei's mansion.

In fact, the main reason for doing this is to ensure the safety of the emperor. What if an assassin jumps out from somewhere?

Parading was not just about prisoners being punished, for example, the emperor paraded through the streets to show the majesty of the emperor.

But others dare not be rude.

At this moment, Zhu Zhen was seen sitting in front of him with rare uprightness, with his hands clasped together. He, who was already wise and powerful, now looked even more majestic and majestic.

This is because he is worried that when Zhu Chu was the king of Dian, the actions of those who loved the people like sons were just for show.

After Zhu Chu came in, he greeted: "Let's go. Luan Jia is ready."

Now that he is the emperor, why should he continue acting?
Isn't it time to reveal your true colors?

But the emperor went out and accompanied the queen back home.

Zhu Ming also raised his hand and said, "Brothers, please get up quickly."

Now that there is a Queen Xu in the Xu Mansion, it can be said to be a great blessing.

Not only did Xu Da become the father of the country, Jia was equivalent to the mother of the country.

Naturally, the mother of the country here does not mean the mother of a country, otherwise Jia would be Xu Da's wife, Zhu Yuanzhang's wife, or Zhu Zhen.

The queen is the one who cares about the world.

The mother of the country is the title of the country's father-in-law, which is equivalent to the abbreviation of "the mother-in-law of the country".

The feudal era was an imperial politics of family and world. The emperor was the king of a country and the foundation of the country.

In this way, as the emperor's father-in-law, he is naturally the father-in-law of the country.

In contrast, the emperor's brother-in-law became the uncle-in-law of the state.

However, these are actually false names and have no real power at all.

If there is an emperor backing him, he will naturally be domineering and domineering.

But it would be useless if it was a relative that the emperor didn't care about.

As the queen returned home, the Xu Mansion naturally burst into flames with firecrackers and beat gongs and drums to welcome the emperor in.

Next to it was Xin Guogong Tang's Mansion. When Tang He heard the noise next door, he could only sit and wait.

Nowadays, with different identities, there is naturally a priority.

And even if they were right next to each other, he wouldn't be able to watch the fun.

Just kidding, what the hell.

But the inner courtyard of Xu Mansion was extremely lively.

Mrs. Jia held Xu Miaojin's hand, which made an old woman burst into tears (actually, she was not old, she was only in her thirties).

His daughter turned out to be the queen of the world, which was something Jia didn't expect.

Xu Da accompanied Zhu Ming as a minister, and the matters he discussed were mainly state affairs.

Although Xu Da was born in the military, he had stood in the court for so many years, and he knew a lot of things under the influence of his ears and eyes.

The two of them were chatting happily.

Finally, Xu Da suddenly felt worried and asked: "I wonder what your Majesty's plans are in the future?"

What are your plans?

Zhu Ming didn't understand it at first, but when his eyes swept over the three brothers of the Xu family standing behind Xu Da, he immediately understood.

Old Boss Xu is worried about the children of the Xu family.

"Our old Zhu family, and you old Xu family, do we still need to divide the relationship between the two families? Father-in-law, you are the hero who conquered the world with my father. Now the three brothers of the Xu family are my uncles, how can it be useless? The place of martial arts.”

"Besides, my eldest brother Xu Huizu has won your true inheritance. Although his personal strength is not as good as that of my sister (Xu Miaojin), in terms of military skills and strategies, he will never disgrace your family tradition."

"Second brother Xu Yingxu has also made great achievements."

"Fourth brother Xu Zengshou, there is no need to say more."

The third son of the Xu family died young, so Xu Zengshou was the fourth.

Zhu Min is so good at talking. In addition to praising Xu Huizu, Xu Yingxu and Xu Zengshou also talked about it.

Xu Zengshou said in his heart, if you really can't praise it, you don't have to praise it. What does it mean that you don't need to say more, just talk about it?
Of course he wouldn't dare to make a mistake.

"Don't worry, the Xu family will only have more titles, not less," Zhu Zhen finally comforted Xu Da.

Only then did Xu Da feel relieved.

In fact, at his age, he has no ambitions. The only thing he wants is to pass on these family assets.

And the most precious thing of the Xu family is not the title of Duke of the country that he has worked hard for during his military life.

Based on the relationship between Xu Da and Zhu Zhen, he still knew a lot of inside information.

There have always been people on the Internet who believed that it was Ming Dynasty’s many royal children who defeated Ming Dynasty.

Let’s not talk about the authenticity and the real reason for the collapse of the Ming Dynasty.

Nowadays, the vassal king is regarded by Zhu Zhen as a sharp weapon for the country and his right-hand man. Naturally, he cannot reduce the vassal state.

But the Ming Dynasty had an extremely speechless system, which was hereditary neglect. Not only can the king's title be hereditary, but any noble title can also be hereditary.

It is equivalent to saying that as long as you can continue to be popular, your family's title can be passed down forever.

And this is not only true for noble titles, but also for military household registration.

From ordinary soldiers to hundreds of households, thousands of households, and even officials with real power such as commanders, they can all be replaced by hereditary inheritance.

It's just too confusing.

Think about it, if an emperor canonizes a few more marquises and a few more commanders, within ten generations, how many aristocratic families and military boss factions will there be?

But if there is no canonization, can we only use people left over from the previous dynasty?
Therefore, it is not possible to reduce the feudal lordship, but it is feasible to reduce the nobility.

Zhu Zhen said in the morning meeting that he wanted to overthrow the Ming Dynasty. Many reform policies have not yet started, but he already knows it.

take it easy.

After staying in Xu Mansion for more than an hour, Zhu Chu was ready to leave.

"It's time to go see Tang He. Is that old guy getting impatient? Hahaha," Xu Da smiled proudly.

"Dad," Xu Miaojin squeaked, but Tang Xin was still there.

Tang Xin smiled and shook his head. It is difficult for the younger generation to participate in the feelings of the older generation.

What's more, she knows the relationship between Xu Da and her old man.

Without mentioning Li Shanchang, the prestige of the Tang and Xu families, even Feng Sheng and Fu Youde, had to step aside. Only Li Wenzhong and Chang Yuchun could shake it when he was still alive.

Otherwise, the two of them have the closest relationship with Zhu Yuanzhang.

And now that the second generation is here, it has become messy and untidy.

Just the four uncles of the Xu family are the four princes of the old Zhu family.

No, it’s three kings and one emperor.

Of the three daughters of the Tang family, two married Zhu Tan, and Tang Xin also married Zhu Chu.

In this kind of relationship, one cannot be kissed again.

However, there are still necessary rituals.

So Zhu Ming and his three wives had to get on the Luan chariot and drive around before arriving at the gate of Tang Mansion.

After Tang He got the news, he personally greeted him.

Unexpectedly, there was a young man accompanying Tang He.

Tang Yu.

Although Tang He's legitimate sons are all gone, it was also mentioned that his legitimate sons and grandsons all died young.

But in fact, Tang Yu is still here, and because people got married early in ancient times, Tang Yu has already gotten married and gave birth to a son, Tang Wenyu.

However, the Tang family was really miserable in history, because Tang Yu and Tang Wenyu and his son died young, so that no one succeeded to the title of Duke Xin for forty years.

When Tang Wenyu's son Tang Jie arrived, he wanted to ask Ming Yingzong for a title.

As a result, Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty actually abolished the dukedom of Xinguo directly on the grounds that he had no successor for forty years.

Ming Yingzong is Zhu Qizhen, this guy is simply not a human being.

Is that what you said in human terms?

They believed in the lineage of the Duke, but they were all loyal and loyal. Except for those who died young, they all died in battle.

For example, Tang He's great-grandson Tang Yinji was one of the famous Ten Talents of Jingtai. When he was serving as the general of Yansui East Road, he guarded Gushan Fort and died in battle.

Wouldn't it be chilling to do so?

"Nephew Tang Yu, let's go to the emperor's uncle, go to the empress, go to the noble concubine, go to the concubine Shu," Tang Yu knelt down in a gentle and elegant manner.

Tang Yu is actually a few years older than Zhu Chu, but it's a pity that the seniority is there.

Zhu Zhen was the most awesome second generation in Ming Dynasty.

Tang Yu is the third generation of Xinguo Gongfu.

There is a difference in seniority.

While Zhu Ming bowed to Tang He, the head of state, he stretched out his hand to help up his wife and nephew, who was somewhat frail and slender.

My wife's nephew is called my wife's nephew for short. Don't play with homophonic jokes.

After entering Tang Mansion, a long conversation is naturally inevitable.

But Tang He was even more anxious than Xu Da.

Tang He looked at his direct grandson and couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, I don't know what my fate will be in the future if I believe in the Duke's lineage."

Xu Da also has three sons, and the eldest son of Xu Da's family is quite fatherly.

But think about yourself again.

It's hard to express Tang He's mood.

Especially Tang Yu's physical condition is not good. Maybe he doesn't have to wait until Tang Yu reaches the age of Xijue. He may take a step ahead of himself.

What happened to the Tang family?
Zhu Chu could only comfort him.

"Your Majesty, you have to promise me one thing. You will never let me believe that the Duke's lineage has no descendants," Tang He looked at Zhu Xi with burning eyes.

Zhu Zhen knew what he meant. Like Xu Da, he wanted to get his own guarantee and wanted to keep the hard-won aristocratic title of the Tang family.

Zhu Ming was also unambiguous and said eloquently: "As long as the descendants of the Tang family do not betray the Zhu family and the country, the Zhu family and the Ming Dynasty will not betray the Tang family."

Zhu Ming didn't say everything he said. He would not say something to death easily. That would be true and could easily cause trouble for future generations.

But we can't chill the hero's heart.

As long as the Tang family does not betray, they can enjoy glory and wealth.

But I am afraid that the descendants of the Tang family will have unfilial people.

Because Zhu Zhen himself was worried about this situation, he planned to change the throne succession system and instead select the throne from all the descendants of the clan.

If the imperial title is like this, let alone the titles of other families?

Tang He was already very satisfied, knowing that if Tang Xin was not there, Zhu Zhen would not have to be so accommodating.

Give you a guarantee? Now I am the emperor and you are the minister.

How can there be any reason for a minister to force the palace?
"Okay, father-in-law, don't be so sentimental. Look at my father, he gave me a little sister at such an old age. You should work harder and try to give me a brother-in-law," Zhu Zhen said with a smile. .

Tang He rolled his eyes and said, "Speak some human words. You are really not afraid of your father whipping you."

He is already at such an old age and has several wives left. How can he marry another young lady? He doesn't want any more fame.

According to unofficial legends, Tang He had a hundred beautiful wives and concubines in addition to Mrs. Hu from Xinguo as his head wife.

Of course, this was too wild. Tang He was in his sixties at the time and was not far away from a stroke, so there was no way he could enjoy it.

After all, it is wild history. It doesn’t matter whether it is history or not, but it must be wild.

After chatting with Tang He at Duke Xinguo's mansion for a while, Zhu Chu had to rush back to his original mansion without stopping.

Don't forget that during yesterday's wedding, after Mu Chu and Mu Tu got the news, they rushed to the capital with 100,000 Naxi people to build momentum for their sister.

During the wedding process, the Prince of Dian's Mansion became Mu Qiu's natal family, including Mu Chu and Mu Tu, who also lived in the Prince of Dian's Mansion.

Otherwise, we can’t let them sleep on the street, right? Or send it to the inn?
outrageous.

So the Zhu family took a golden dragon carriage and arrived at the Prince of Dian's Mansion with ease.

This was Zhu Chu's old mansion when he was still the king of Dian. Although he lived there not long ago, he also developed some feelings for it.

Xiao Baozi personally led the palace attendants out to greet him. When he saw Zhu Chu, Xiao Baozi knelt down on the ground excitedly and cried: "Welcome my lord back to the house."

"This kid, why are you crying? Those who didn't know thought it was my first day today," Zhu Zhen scolded with an angry smile.

Xiao Baozi was startled and quickly explained: "No, no, no, no. Me, this. Him."

What is yours and mine?

Zhu Zhen knew that Xiao Baozi was worried that after he became the emperor and the master of the palace, he would forget about the old people in the house.

Those palace maids paid it off, but these eunuchs had already completed their purification. How would they survive if they were abandoned like this?

So Zhu Ming stopped joking and said, "Okay, you'd better come over and follow me."

Little Baozi suddenly burst into laughter and ran over, rolling and crawling.

Zhu Ming shook his head, he was not a person who liked the new and disliked the old.

At this time, Mu Chu and Mu Tu in the mansion heard the movement and came out to greet him, kowtow and greet him.

Zhu Chu led everyone into the house, pulled Mu Chu and Mu Tu, and started chatting openly.

"Mu Chu, you are Mu Qiu's eldest brother, that is, my uncle. I trust you. In a few days, you Naxi tribe will go back. But don't just disband and slack off. Instead, you must prepare more for martial arts training."

"In less than a year, I will send troops to Southeast Asia. By then, you must seize the opportunity to make great contributions and strive to win a title for the Mu family."

Mu Chu and Mu Tu and his son looked at each other, excited.

They knew that as long as the war continued, they could continue to perform meritorious services, and with the care of Zhu Zhen, the emperor's brother-in-law and uncle, the Mu family would definitely benefit.
