228: Establish a prince
On the second day, the emperor did not go to the early court, but issued a holy decree, announced the civil and military officials, and the oars room entered the court, so that all the people gathered in the Baohe Palace.
King Chun is also among them. As soon as I heard that the clan of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs had been summoned, I thought about the emperor's actions in the recent past. King Chun knew in his heart that the emperor was going to set the position of the prince. Although Zhu was not made the crown prince, he has already replaced the emperor in handling government affairs. The emperor should also give him an official title, so that he is also a legitimate prisoner of the country.
The ministers who were called also had a number in their hearts. Because the imperial court will only be carried out in the Baohe Hall when it is enthroned, established as a prince, and sealed after the enthronement.
Zhu also vaguely guessed that for ♀ a period of time, he handled important government affairs on behalf of his father, and his father also pointed out the shortcomings. It is something that when the heir is being cultivated, the government and the opposition know it. It was only a matter of time before he was made crown prince. Moreover, he also knew that the emperor's body was getting worse and worse. Although there is no prepared intelligence. But it can be seen from the face of the emperor alone. Although it has been raised for more than a month, it looks a lot better. However, as soon as I came back, I was infected with a small wind chill, and I still haven't recovered yet.
At this time, the emperor was expected to correct his name, and he was crowned as the crown prince (correct name, that is, the only son-in-law, the upper position, and the name was changed to be right), and the emperor could personally say that he was the personal son ♀ of Empress Su, and he could change his name and change his name, and he could also comfort the queen mother's soul in the sky.
Tongcai, he also wanted to know if the queen mother had left something for him. If he stayed, he would love to get what his mother had left him.
"The emperor has arrived." The emperor entered the Baohe Hall and looked at the black pressure below. Many of them were courtiers in their fifties and sixties, and they looked very bad at all. Looking at them, the emperor looked at the sturdy ones again, and suddenly felt that he was really old. When you are old, you should indeed serve your old age. Mortals, where can there really be a long live. When you are old, it may be good to retire and live a life of flowers, raising birds, and fishing.
"Flat." The shrill voice of the eunuch resounded in the sky above the Baohe Palace. The gentle ears that were waiting on the inside hurt and hurt.
The emperor didn't say much, and greeted him a few times. With a wave of his big hand, Wen Bao hurriedly took out a holy decree from the box handed to him by the emperor just now, looked at it, was stunned for three seconds, and then stabilized his mind before he read, "Fengtian carrier, the emperor summoned and said: The eighth prince Hongzhang has good moral character, noble birth, both literary and talent, and has won my heart, and is specially canonized as the prince of Daqi ......."
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live......" Although many people below have already prepared for this. But in the face of this sudden holy decree, some of the people below were still stunned, silent for ten seconds, and were awakened by the shouts of the fast-responding people next to them, and immediately bowed and bowed.
"Your Majesty, please also ask the Emperor to explain that the Eighth Prince was born with a noble background, and he was born with a noble birth. Your Majesty, we can also make a book. Lord Song, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said stubbornly. He didn't want to take the risk, but it was his responsibility. He had to figure it out before he could keep a record. Of course, he also wants to sell a good one. After all, the emperor has not personally confirmed the identity of Zhu. The ascension of the son-in-law to the throne is more in line with Confucian orthodoxy, and it also makes the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty return to their hearts.
The emperor was not angry with the words of the Ministry of Rites, and he was also ready to say this. Since the road should be paved, the best road should be paved, so he said loudly, "The biological mother of the eighth prince is the Shengyuan Empress who will share the coffin with me a hundred years later. The eighth prince is my only son-in-law. ”
After hearing this, he was very excited and confirmed that his father personally confirmed that his real mother was Empress Shengyuan. Eight years later, the moment he saw Wen Wan, he knew that he was the son of Empress Shengyuan. But even if two identical faces speak for themselves, there is no evidence, no evidence, everything is false. Unexpectedly, my father confirmed his identity in front of the courtiers. The joy is indescribable.
The emperor looked at the courtiers: "The box left by Empress Shengyuan to be gentle has always been in my hands. Inside the box were two handwritten letters from Empress Shengyuan, one for me and one for Lao Ba∨ confirming that Lao Ba was indeed her own son. It was only for some reason that he was allowed to switch identities. So, you don't need to be suspicious. ”
Ten heads were given to the ministers present, and they did not dare to doubt the emperor's words ♀, but not only a matter of doubting the emperor's words, but also a matter of offending the future emperor. No one made this stupid ‖ King Heng who was present didn't say a word÷ it's here, what else is there to say."
After listening to the emperor's words, there was expectation in his eyes, and there was a thick sourness in his heart.
Unexpectedly, his mother really left something in the world, and really left something for him≯ There was something in it that couldn't help but fall.
Zhu forced back the tears in his eyes, raised his head, and looked at the emperor expectantly. He thought to himself that his father should give him the letter left by the queen mother!
"Spread my will, and ask Si Tianjian to choose an auspicious day and carry out the canonization ceremony of the crown prince." glanced at the ministers below and added the last sentence. "Retreat." With the screaming voice of the eunuch, the emperor walked out of the Wende Palace. In fact, the emperor is in a very bad mood now
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live." As the emperor's words fell, the ministers below also lost their minds. The people who have followed the attention for a long time have made up their minds, and now that they are not standing in line, they are not forced to calculate and stand in line. Only a group of people in the main hall who took refuge in King Zhao regretted it in their hearts. But in this situation, it is useless to regret it. Thinking about how to remedy it is the best.
After the next dynasty, the officials congratulated Zhu Zhu one after another, and Zhu Zhu's face was calm, although he could see some joy, but he could withstand it.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the emperor announced that you will go to the Yanghe Palace." The eunuchs are full of respect ♀, but the future Son of Heaven, the future owner of this palace, naturally has to come respectfully.
"This king has not yet held a canonization ceremony, so you must not call it indiscriminately. There will be a next time, and the stick will be beaten to death. "Although the name is decided, but the last step has not been completed, it is better to keep a low profile.
"Father." Attention was the first time, entered the Yanghe Palace, and stood respectfully in front of the emperor. Although the emperor did not like him since he was a child, it should be said that he hated him. However, the emperor was the person he respected and admired the most.
Over the years, although he has also resented the emperor in his heart, he resented his partiality, and resented his ignorance. But at this moment, looking at his father's gray hair, no matter how much resentment he had, it turned into sourness. At this time, facing the emperor, he was still a little uneasy in his heart. Because, he is going to get the explanation he has been wanting for eight years. His biological mother, why did she send him to that woman's name. What was the reason why his mother, who he had no chance to see, ruthlessly left their two young children.
"Sit down." The emperor was very calm, so to speak, a little lonely. After holding the power for more than 40 years, he has to give it to the son in front of him, and that loss is always inevitable.
"Presumably, after confirming Wen Wan's identity, you have been doubting your origins. It's just that I don't have a chance! "The emperor is very peaceful, and the affairs of the world are under control. I didn't shirk it, and nodded directly.
"You are so good to Wen Wan, it is estimated that five points are sincere, and five points are intentional. When people think of gentleness, they think of your life experience. When I first heard that your uncle and nephew looked exactly the same, I doubted your origins. I didn't expect to check it, and it turned out to be really out of business. It's hard for your mother, for the sake of the Great Qi and for me, she made such a sacrifice. In order to let you live, I also used this method∞ I am ashamed of your mother's heel and you and Fuhui. The emperor looked sad
"Father, mother, why did you do this, I want to know why." Zhu has not hidden his anxiety ♀ for several years, and has been entangled in this problem. He knew there was a reason for the amusement, but he wanted to know why.
"You don't need to know that the reason ♀ is the letter that your mother left you. I think that your mother will also let you know the truth one day, let you know that you are her son! Otherwise, this letter would not have been left. There was a slight movement in the emperor's eyes, if it weren't for this, there would be no need for her to do such a thing. In the final analysis, I still can't let go of my own pair of children, especially for this son, the junior sister should still have a strong sense of guilt in her heart.
I took the letter and looked at the plum blossom font written in Juanxiu, and my son Hongzhang opened it personally. As soon as I saw these six words, I didn't know what it was like↓ I wanted to open the envelope and read it carefully. was kicked out of the Sanatorium Hall by the emperor who was in a bad mood.
In the past, I used to ride horses, but this time I took a carriage back home for the first time. As soon as I got into the carriage, I immediately opened the letter that had been opened a long time ago and spread it out. As soon as it unfolded, what caught your eye was still a handful of beautiful plum blossom fonts.
In the letter, Empress Su said that Zhu was her son, a son born in October. Because there is a last resort, the only way to do this is to use such a decisive method. Although this will make him suffer a lot of grievances and suffer a lot, only in this way can he not get in the way of others and live peacefully in this dark palace. As long as he can live well, she will be satisfied. Xiao Zhu can forgive her for her ruthlessness at the beginning, saying that as long as he can live, please don't blame her☆ Later, the words are good, they can't let go of Fu Hui and him, revealing a strong reluctance. I don't know what kind of mood Su Guifei was in at the beginning, and she wrote this letter.
From beginning to end, the letter did not say what exactly caused her to make such a sacrifice. What kind of thing did the father know the truth, but he didn't pursue it. Instead, he made the decision to be in the same coffin with his mother a hundred years later≡ but the problem must be Qi Wanxia. As for what the reason was, he didn't dare to ask, because he knew that even if he asked the emperor, the emperor would not tell him.
