852 I don't want to be Prince Yiwen
When Queen Zhou heard this, she didn't speak immediately, but with a cold face, she waved her hand to let the palace maid withdraw.
Seeing this movement, Zhu Cihong felt a little chill in his back, and his heart was a little hairy. But there is no way, this is his queen mother, even if he is the crown prince, it is useless.
After a while, the palace maids and attendants all withdrew, and Queen Zhou approached the prince, with a little hatred on her face, and said to Zhu Cihong: "I heard the wind before, and finally couldn't help but come over to take a look, and I really bumped into it, dealing with national affairs, reviewing and reviewing the chapters, is that your attitude?" ”
Zhu Cihong lowered his head and remained silent, looking like he was being trained.
Seeing him like this, Empress Zhou couldn't help but be even more angry, pointed at him and said: "You are the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and you will succeed to the throne as the Ming Emperor in the future." Is it ...... to be so perfunctory about political affairs? Do you want to be a faint king? ”
This is a bit heavy, but only Queen Zhou can say it, and others don't have the qualifications and courage to say it. For example, Cao Huachun, an old qualified eunuch, didn't mention a word.
Hearing such straightforward words, Zhu Cihong was stimulated, and couldn't help but raise his head suddenly, with a little anger on his face, but looking at his mother's face that hated iron but not steel, this anger disappeared, and just replied: "Erchen didn't want to be a faint king!" ”
"Then tell me about it!" As soon as Queen Zhou heard that he still denied it, she pointed her finger at his head, and said angrily, "Could it be that my mother was blind just now?" Your father's decree for major events is for you to review, how did you approve it? Did you review it like that? ”
Zhu Cihong listened, lowered his head, and continued not to speak.
"Say, what the hell do you want?" When Queen Zhou saw him like this, she couldn't help but be even more angry, her voice was a little louder, and she shouted, "You tell my mother!" If you want to say one, two, three, you have to be reasonable, and my mother will ignore you again? You say, do you really want to be a faint king? ”
Facing Queen Zhou's aggressiveness, Zhu Cihong suddenly raised his head, with a little determination on his face, without the intention of retreating, and replied with a straight neck: "Erchen just doesn't want to be Prince Yiwen!" ”
As soon as she heard this, Queen Zhou was like being hit by a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and stayed there for a while.
Prince Yiwen refers to Zhu Biao, the eldest son of the founding ancestor, whose greatest achievement in his life is that he has been a prince for a lifetime, and he has not become an emperor when he dies. Because Zhu Yuanzhang lived longer than his eldest son.
Nowadays, Emperor Chongzhen is wise and martial, and many people are already saying that the current emperor is much more powerful than the Taizu back then. Judging from the current situation, Emperor Chongzhen seems to be physically tough, and he has gone to the Mughal Empire to fight.
At that time, Taizu and Prince Yiwen were twenty-seven years apart, and the current Emperor Chongzhen and Zhu Cihong are only eighteen years apart. Judging from the fact that Taizu killed his son back then, it seems that the probability of Emperor Chongzhen killing his son is also very high.
The reason why Empress Zhou was shocked was because her son didn't want to be Prince Yiwen, that is, he wanted to be the emperor, but if he wanted to be the emperor, either Emperor Chongzhen would be the emperor or Emperor Chongzhen. However, both of these scenarios, for the time being, are absolutely impossible. So, does his son want to kill his father?
Thinking of this thought, how could Empress Zhou not be shocked and froze!
This news is so big that Queen Zhou didn't dare to be stunned for a while, she immediately came back to her senses, hurriedly looked left and right, and then immediately darkened her face, and shouted angrily: "You...... You are a great rebel, you ...... You're looking for death, you're ......"
As she spoke, she was already a little incoherent with fright, which was really beyond her acceptability.
However, hearing her say this, looking at her like this, Zhu Cihong was stunned for a while, and then finally reacted, and suddenly, he himself was stunned, and he was also a little anxious, and hurriedly said to Queen Zhou: "Queen Mother, where do you want to go!" ”
The tone was full of blame.
"I ...... Where can I go? When Queen Zhou heard this, she was slightly stunned, and said a little angrily, "You said it yourself, how can you have such an idea, you are disloyal and unfilial......
Zhu Cihong didn't dare to listen anymore, and hurriedly stopped: "Queen Mother...... Queen Mother, you have misunderstood your son! ”
When he said this, he was eager to go up and gag his mother's mouth.
"Huh?" When Queen Zhou heard this, she was a little dumbfounded, and she couldn't react a little, "I'm ...... Did I misunderstand you? ”
"That's it!" Zhu Cihong nodded hurriedly, and said at the same time, "What Erchen means is just that he doesn't want to be like Prince Yiwen, and in the end he will achieve nothing." As far as this political matter is concerned, is the son or the father powerful? Are these courtiers arranged by the father and emperor powerful, or are the sons and daughters powerful? ”
"What do you mean?" Empress Zhou was a little confused by him, and couldn't help but ask in wonder.
Zhu Cihong didn't want to be misunderstood by Queen Zhou anymore, this matter was too big, and if it got out, he couldn't afford it anyway, so he quickly explained: "In this political matter, no matter how hard the ministers try, it is impossible to make a difference." However, didn't the father also arrange things for his sons? This is a major event that benefits the country and the people and affects future generations! Erchen worked hard to achieve this, not only the steam engine was invented, but also has been used in people's livelihood everywhere. There are also steam-powered trains and steam warships, all of which are busy with Erchen. No matter who it is in the future, as long as these things are mentioned, they will inevitably mention the sons. Therefore, Erchen thought that instead of doing nothing in political affairs, it was better to do more practical things. This is what the son meant, does the queen mother understand? ”
Speaking of this, he took a deep breath and said heavily: "Erchen just wants to live a worthwhile life, and Erchen wants to do something with a sense of achievement!" ”
Hearing this, Queen Zhou finally understood what her son meant, and it turned out that she really misunderstood. Knowing this, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
However, it is clear that a conservative person like her still can't turn a corner after all, and she can't help but say: "But, you are the prince!" ”
"Yes, Erchen is the prince!" Zhu Cihong said it, and it didn't matter. This let go, and his thinking was even clearer, and he immediately said to Queen Zhou, "Just because Erchen is the crown prince, he has been busy with these things, and doing these things will definitely have a very significant impact on the domestic atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty, and he can guide my people of the Ming Dynasty to work hard in these aspects, which is the biggest role of the prince of Erchen." ”
Speaking of this, he took a deep breath and whispered in a very affirmative tone: "Erchen believes that his father also means this, and he will be very happy to pounce on these aspects!" ”
"This ......" Queen Zhou couldn't help but be a little speechless when she heard this, because her intuition made her feel that her son was right.
"Erchen is also very happy!" Seeing that she couldn't speak, Zhu Cihong said solemnly, "Because the sons and daughters also have a sense of accomplishment, if you continue to do this, there will definitely be a place for the sons and daughters in the history books, and they are no longer just the prince!" ”
Is Zhu Cihong stupid? He's not stupid! knows that he is in terms of being an emperor, no matter how hard he tries, he can't compare to his father. Even if he really became the emperor in the future, he couldn't do better than his father. In the future history books, he will surely be silent under the light of his great father.
Therefore, when he discovers new opportunities and can also make things with a sense of achievement, he will of course be happy to do it, and he will definitely not pay attention to this kind of thing of reviewing the cantata.
After Empress Zhou understood the whole thing, she finally nodded slowly, and had to admit that her son's choice may be right.
"My son, my mother is finally relieved!" Queen Zhou stretched out her hand, touched her son's face, and said with relief.
Although one is the queen and the other is the prince, in the final analysis, one is still a mother and the other is a son.
Hearing this, Zhu Cihong was very happy, he knew that whatever he did in the future, his mother would not care about him anymore. So, his heart flew to Tianjin again, but unfortunately, there was no data on the long-distance ironclad battleship, so he could only rely on himself to explore it again.
Empress Zhou put down her hand and prepared to go back. However, shocked by his son's words, she also had some thoughts, and couldn't help muttering to herself: "Then what should I do?" ”
If you can go down in history, who wouldn't want to? Queen Zhou also wants to ah! Now, her son has found his own bright path, but she doesn't know how to do it?
She has always adhered to the way of the queen and governed the harem according to tradition, not to mention how good she is, at least she is worthy of the position of queen.
However, now that she is affected by her son's words, if possible, she also wants to leave a name in history and be one of the best queens in the past!
However, she really has no clue how to make a name for herself in history.
Hearing the words she said to herself, Zhu Cihong couldn't help but say: "Queen Mother, that's not simple, just do what your father wants!" ”
"Huh?" When Empress Zhou heard this, she couldn't help but be a little surprised, she couldn't think of it for a while, so she asked, "What did your father say?" ”
Hearing that his mother asked him for advice, Zhu Cihong came to his senses, and his eyebrows danced a little, and he immediately pointed out: "Didn't the queen mother find out?" My father has asked more and more women to come out and do things. Even the queen mother herself is not in charge of a textile factory? The meaning of the sons and daughters to look at their fathers and emperors should be that all the women of our Ming Dynasty can also do a job, not just at home, what do you ......see?"
Speaking of which, he began to give Empress Zhou a hand-breaking index of Emperor Chongzhen's new policies, including the establishment of midwives and other measures, and then said that the Ming Dynasty opened up territory, and now it is encouraging childbirth, from which it can be seen that Emperor Chongzhen has positioned women in the future.
