Chapter 41: The East Palace Team
Zhu Biao stood quietly outside, and could vaguely hear the voice of the canonized ministers inside, now they are still canonized officials, and the title has not yet been canonized, after all, Xu Da is still leading a large group of generals on the Northern Expedition...
After a while, a eunuch came out respectfully, "Holy Lord's message, Prince Xuan enters the palace!" β
Zhu Biao stretched out his hand and tightened the yellow ribbon on his chin, he wore a crown on his head, which was equipped with two filigree golden dragons, and the two dragons were inlaid with four opals, four topazes, ten rubies, ten sapphires, and nine pearls!
Zhu Biao walked into the Fengtian Hall with a solemn face, and under the bowing and retreat of the hundred officials, he slowly walked to the front from the middle of the civil and military officials, and knelt down respectfully, "Erchen see the father, long live the father, long live the father, long live, long live!" β
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his prince and smiled, "Get up!" β
Then he motioned to the Ministry of Rites to read out the holy decree that he had drawn up a long time ago, and the Ministry of Rites bowed out of the ranks, and then walked forward, bowed to the emperor and behind him, facing the ministers, "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says:
"My eldest son, Zhu Biao, is born by the queen, the first heir of the clan, with pure talent and beauty, and noble character, and hereby abide by the first edict, carry the ceremony, and submit to public opinion.
Announce to the world, let the salty make it known!
After Zhu Biao knelt down three times and knocked nine times to receive the canonization edict and the golden seal of the prince, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu picked up an edict: Fengtian carries the emperor, and the system says, "Zhu Biao, the eldest son of my grandson, is talented and beautiful, and is the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and is the prince of the country. β
"I ordered the left prime minister Li Shanchang and the prince and the young master, the right prime minister Xu Da and the prince and the young master, and the middle book Pingzhang records the important affairs of the military and the state often meet the spring and the prince and the young guard!"
"Feng Sheng, the right governor and the right Zhan Shi, Hu Mei, Liao Yongzhong, Li Bosheng, and the same governor of the Zhan Academy, Zhao Yong, Wang Pu and the deputy Zhan Shi, Yang Xian, and Zhan Shicheng, and Fu Zhen, who participated in the politics of the Zhongshu, and Fu Zhen, also served as Zhan Shi."
"Tongzhi Dadu Governor Kang Maocai, Zhang Xingzu and the left and right government envoys, Gu Shi and Sun Xingzu, the deputy envoys of the Dadu Governor's Office, Wu Zhen, Geng Bingwen and the deputy envoys of the left and right government affairs, Deng Yu, Tang He and Yude, Liu Ji, Zhang Yi and Zanshan Doctor in the Imperial History, and the secretary and servant of the Imperial Shi Wen Yuanji, Fan Xianzu and the prince's guest!"
Zhu Biao led a group of ministers to kneel down and thank him, and these people above were marked with his mark from this will!
This is the most luxurious Donggong Group in history, because this is Zhu Yuanzhang's own team, the civil and military team of the founding Taizu!
After Zhu Yuanzhang let them get up, Li Shanchang led the subordinates of the East Palace to salute Zhu Biao, "Ministers, see His Royal Highness the Prince!" β
Zhu Biao raised his hand to let them get up, and then he respectfully stepped aside, and Zhu Yuanzhang began to subdivide his duties.
Only then did Zhu Biao have time to think about his subordinates, "Li Shanchang needless to say, Xu Da was actually named the right prime minister!" It seems that this is the father and the emperor are going to use military attachΓ©s to balance the civil officials led by Li Shanchang, but there must also be civilian officials to balance the military attachΓ©s, Zhu Biao glanced at Liu Bowen behind Li Shanchang...
Zhu Biao shook his head, he doesn't have to worry about this, it's just that although his team is luxurious, they are all arrogant soldiers!
Not long after, Zhu Yuanzhang's first court meeting ended, in fact, it was a formality, and the formal handling of official affairs should be the next court meeting.
After Zhu Yuanzhang left, a group of ministers instantly moved to his side, "His Royal Highness is the secretary Zuo Cheng of the East Palace, and His Royal Highness is the Tongzhi of the East Palace............
Zhu Biao communicated with his future subordinates in a friendly manner, and when the crowd dispersed, Zhu Biao thought about the people who didn't come just now.
Li Shanchang was the first, but Zhu Biao had already expected that the young master of the prince, the young master of the prince, and the young guard of the prince were all officials in the East Palace, and they were all responsible for teaching the prince.
But it's more nominal, after all, it is impossible to really let the young master of the crown prince Li Shanchang teach him knowledge, the young master of the prince Xu Da taught him military law, and the prince Shaobao Chang Yuchun personally protected his safety.
Zhu Biao walked out of the Fengtian Hall and walked towards Kunning Palace, thinking that his father must be there.
Just halfway through, a palace maid came to invite, and when Zhu Biao walked into Kunning Palace, he saw Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma arguing about something, and Zhu Biao waved his hand. Liu Jin led the palace maid down.
Zhu Biao stepped forward and heard Zhu Yuanzhang say loudly: "The world I have worked so hard to build is not just for future generations to be happy!" β
Queen Ma said, "Then there shouldn't be such a national policy, Your Majesty!" Heavy eight! You can't just look at the present! β
Zhu Yuanzhang was still unconvinced: "How much can they eat!" β
Queen Ma was still persuading him, and Zhu Biao understood after listening for a while that Zhu Yuanzhang had been lonely since he was a child, and he especially longed for family affection, so he planned to set a national policy and gave the royal family preferential treatment.
The first is that the royal family does not have to go to work in the future, and these people are supported by the state finance, and the local royal family is paid by the local finance. For the royal family who don't go to work, Zhu Yuanzhang sets a salary level for them that is generally about 8 times that of ordinary officials! Moreover, there is no limit to the number of people, as long as it is a royal family, they all receive a salary according to their rank, and they start receiving it from the age of 10 until they die.
In addition to the high salary, Zhu Yuanzhang also thought of birth, old age, sickness and death, he stipulated that when the royal family was sick, the public expense would be used for medical treatment, the imperial doctor would serve, and the royal family would grow up and marry a wife, and the state would allocate funds to them to allocate houses, fields, dowries, services, etc.
When a descendant of the royal family dies, he will receive a very generous funeral fee, which is enough for a lavish funeral.
Therefore, in the case of not going to work, relying on the salary of the head of the person, and everything can be reimbursed, in the end, the royal family only has one thing left, that is, constantly marrying wives, concubines giving birth to children, and even competitions to have children, according to records, the highest record of giving birth to sons at that time was Yuncheng Wangfu, giving birth to more than 100 children, and his sons are also particularly able to give birth, all of them are dozens, dozens of births.
Zhu Biao knew that in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, many provinces' annual financial income could not support the royal family in the province, and by the end of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial population exceeded 1 million, and the huge expenditure was the most important reason for crushing the Ming Dynasty's finances.
Zhu Biao walked behind Zhu Yuanzhang, pressed his shoulder and said, "Father, my son understands that you want the children and grandchildren of my Zhu family to live well, but Father, do you remember what you taught when I was a child?" β
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned when he heard that his son was also standing on his wife's side, "We are also planning for your children and grandchildren!" How do you kid want to help your mother speak! β
Zhu Biao replied with a smile, "My father is the supreme in the world, with a heavenly constitution in his mouth, and he follows the law!" If what the Queen Mother said is unreasonable, how can you argue with the Queen Mother here? β
Queen Ma saw that her son was on her side, so she took a sip of tea calmly: "Your father is like this!" I know it's wrong, but I still have to do it! β
Zhu Biao hurriedly said, "Queen Mother, my father naturally has my father's considerations!" It's just that the father feels that it is difficult to start a business, and he is reluctant to let his children and grandchildren suffer. β
watched the two bigwigs both ease up. Zhu Biaocai opened his mouth to express his opinion: "My father often taught his sons and daughters when they were young, and they should not learn the style of the children of the nobles of the previous dynasty.
Zhu Yuanzhang said in a low voice: "Our sons don't come to this!" β
Zhu Biao nodded: "They are naturally just sons in front of their father, but when they go out, they are the emperors of Tianhuang and nobles!" β
Zhu Biao continued, "Even if the son's generation, including the next generation of fathers, can discipline it, but what about the future?
