Daming: I am the most powerful emperor grandson, please abdicate the throne

Chapter 223 Your Majesty, you are biased
  After hearing Lian Zining finish what he said, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression darkened.

At this time, all the ministers in the entire hall were quiet, wanting to see His Majesty's reaction before they responded accordingly.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Lian Zining and said calmly: "Can you say what you just said again?"

Lian Zining could only say it once, but he didn't dare to say it the second time and knelt down directly.

Seeing this, the civil servants stepped forward and knelt down, saying in unison: "Your Majesty, please appoint the emperor's grandson as soon as possible. The emperor's eldest grandson Zhu Yunwen is the most suitable."

Zhu Yuanzhang's face became even more gloomy. He didn't expect that these people would dare to force him to make Zhu Yunwen the emperor's grandson. It seemed that during this period, the occasional kindness to Zhu Yunwen gave them hope, and they became a little disappointed.

Just as Guaisun said, Zhu Yunwen has a weak character, which is what civil servants like most, so that they can control the emperor and do whatever he wants in the future.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought of so many things and said in a cold tone: "Are you forcing me?"

It was indeed forcing him.

The six ministers, except Wang Bu, the minister of household affairs, who led a group of ministers of household affairs, did not express their position. The others knelt down.

Most of the people on the Sixth Section of Shizhong and Yushitai knelt down, expressing their willingness to side with Zhu Yunwen. Only Shen Qian and a few other censors seemed to be neutral and did not stand on anyone's team. They were among the civil servants and seemed to be neutral. Somewhat out of place.

It takes a long time to train one of these six officials, especially ministers.

They knelt down at the same time to force the palace, so that Zhu Yuanzhang could not do anything to them for a while. He couldn't kill them all, imprison them, or even remove them from their official positions. Otherwise, who would work for him?

The government cannot function properly.

Before those civil servants could respond, Lan Yu was the first to be reluctant and immediately came out and said, "What qualifications does Zhu Yunwen have to be the emperor's grandson?"

"That's right!"

Feng Sheng also stepped forward and echoed loudly: "How can the emperor's eldest grandson, He De, do it?"

Fu Youde said: "When the emperor's grandson is established, he should be established as a direct eldest son. Does the emperor's eldest grandson have this qualification?"

As for the nobles of Huaixi, those generals were the first to come out to oppose.

They were the first to disagree with Zhu Yunwen's succession.

Seeing the objections of Lan Yu and others, Zhu Yuanzhang softened his expression and said nothing for the time being, letting them make a noise for a while before deciding what to do next.

"The emperor's eldest grandson is your majesty's legitimate eldest grandson, why is he not qualified?"

Censor Wang Du directly retorted: "He is the well-deserved emperor grandson of our Ming Dynasty."

Lan Yu sneered: "He is just the eldest grandson, where can he be the legitimate eldest son? All nine clans of the Lu family are gone, and you are still talking about the legitimate eldest son here? Have you forgotten Crown Princess Jingyi?"

What happened to the Lu family and why they were exterminated by His Majesty.

They don't know much about this.

But things really happened.

This is Zhu Yunwen's shortcoming and their lack of confidence.

"you……"

Ru Chang said: "This is a problem of the Lu family and has nothing to do with the emperor's eldest grandson. After Crown Princess Jingyi, the Lu family will be the crown princess, and the emperor's eldest grandson will be the eldest grandson."

"Ru Chang, you are sophistry!"

Fu Youde said angrily: "So far in the Ming Dynasty, there has only been one crown prince, Crown Princess Jingyi. Now that all the Lu family members are gone, you still dare to say that she is the crown princess? Are you not afraid of blushing when you say this? "

Those civil servants could not say anything to refute.

Because what Fu Youde said was true, the Lu family had long been deposed.

Feng Sheng stepped forward and paid homage: "Your Majesty, please appoint the second emperor's grandson as the emperor's grandson. The second emperor's grandson is our Ming Dynasty's orthodoxy."

The generals in the main hall all agreed.

Lan Yu said again: "Your Majesty, that child Yunxi is so good and capable, and he is the direct grandson of the Ming Dynasty. Who else is more suitable besides him?" Zhu Yuanzhang just sat on the dragon chair, his face continued to be gloomy, his eyes were on Those people were swept away without saying anything.

"When it comes to ability, who can compare to the little emperor's grandson?"

Wang Pu, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, finally spoke and said: "The young emperor's grandson captured Sanfoqi and Annan, led troops to sea, attacked Japanese pirates, and defeated the Japanese country. He is still young, and his achievements have surpassed most of the adults in the court. His ability He is better than the eldest grandson and the second grandson of the emperor. When it comes to being well-behaved and filial, I think neither of the two grandsons can compare to the younger grandson."

Huang Zicheng saw Wang Dun speaking and immediately echoed: "When choosing the emperor's grandson, one should consider his ability. Who can match the ability of the little emperor's grandson?"

Censor Xie Sheng said: "Is an illegitimate son worthy of being compared with the emperor's eldest grandson?"

"enough!"

Zhu Yuanzhang roared angrily after hearing this.

Xie Sheng was shocked all over and finally realized what he had said wrongly. He knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.

Considering how much His Majesty loves the little grandson, if he dares to say such things, Your Majesty may kill him.

Zhu Yuanzhang no longer paid attention to this person, his eyes fell on the ministers again, and he said in a cold voice: "Are you determined to force us to establish the emperor's grandson today?"

They all dared not speak anymore.

Whoever dares to admit it must force His Majesty to establish an imperial grandson, and whoever will be in trouble will be in trouble next.

Interfering in the affairs of future heirs has been taboo in all dynasties, but for their future, sometimes they have to intervene.

"His Majesty!"

Chen Di lowered his head and said, "We did this because His Majesty is too partial."

Zhu Yuanzhang asked puzzledly: "Why are we partial?"

"In His Majesty's eyes, there is only the little emperor's grandson."

Chen Di risked his life and said: "I all know that your Majesty is more concerned about the little grandson. He keeps the little grandson by his side when eating and sleeping. This is unfair to the other grandsons. Please give your majesty a chance to let the other grandsons Give them all a try.”

This sentence is relatively pertinent.

It can be said that one of the thoughts of others

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression softened and he thought about it seriously. It was indeed his problem. He put all his thoughts on Zhu Xuan and only doted on Zhu Xuan, his good grandson, and ignored the others.

Other grandchildren also wanted to be taken seriously, but he didn't even give them a chance.

They are all his own grandchildren, and he is a little too partial.

When the other ministers saw that Zhu Yuanzhang's face had become much calmer and no longer murderous or angry, they all cast admiring glances at Chen Di.

They felt that Chen Di was still witty.

He directly raised a question that Zhu Yuanzhang could not refute.

"What do you think we should do?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked back.

This problem of partiality should be solved. Maybe they really need to be given a chance. But this opportunity is not for Zhu Yunxi, but for Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Xuan. Zhu Yunwen probably did it by the way, by the way, so as to quell their desire to force the palace. .

"This one……"

Chen Di thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "I am stupid and can't think of what to do."

Zhu Yuanzhang said again: "What do you think?"

The ministers were quiet for a moment, and it was Xia Yuanji, the Minister of Household Affairs, who spoke first: "Back to Your Majesty, I believe that among the three emperors' grandsons, who is more suitable to be the emperor's grandson? What needs to be considered is the issue of ability. As long as we can prove who is more capable." OK, you can choose, this is also an opportunity for them.”
