Lao Zhu looked at the crying baby, smiled, and then stopped moving. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yun Xi gently pushed Lao Zhu, and after his death, Lao Zhu could no longer maintain his original posture and lay on the couch. At this time, Yun Xi seemed to find out that Lao Zhu had died, and cried again.

But Yunxi didn't cry loudly, but sobbed softly. He wanted to cry out loud, but he couldn't.

He climbed onto Lao Zhu's body and said, "Grandpa! Grandfather! Zhu Song and the others outside the house heard the shouts inside the house, pushed the door in, and when they saw this scene, they all knelt on the ground and cried. When the palace maids and eunuchs outside heard the crying, they all began to cry. Soon after, the bell rang for "Dangdang", and the entire capital knew that His Majesty had passed away!

Concubine Guo Ning sobbed, walked up to Yun Xi and said to him: "Your Highness, now is not the time to cry here, there are still many things waiting for Your Highness to deal with outside." ”

But Yun Xi didn't hear Concubine Guo Ning's first shout. His heart was filled with words: 'Grandpa is dead, and from now on, no one will be so close to me, teach me, and shelter me from the wind and rain like grandpa.' ’

Although he had been preparing for Lao Zhu's death in his heart as early as the beginning of this year, when Lao Zhu really collapsed, he still felt very sad and at a loss. He just wants to cry here until Zhu Yuanzhang wakes up.

Concubine Guo Ning had to call him over and over again, and finally shook his body directly, so that Yun Xi, who had already cried hoarsely, turned his head.

Concubine Guo Ning said: "Your Highness! No, Your Majesty! You are already the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, how can you keep being such a woman! Emperor Daxing's spirit in the sky, how can you be like this! ”

Zhu Song also said: "Yun, Your Majesty, my father wants you to make Da Ming stronger, not to let you cry here!" ”

Yun Xi relieved himself at this time. Slowly stopped crying. Concubine Guo Ning took out a handkerchief to wipe his tears and said: "Now that Daming has been handed over to you, you can only lead Daming to become stronger, which is the best tribute to Emperor Daxing, and I believe that Emperor Daxing doesn't want you to cry here all the time." ”

Yun Xi also wiped his tears with his hand and said, "Yes, you are right, grandpa handed over the Ming Dynasty to me, not for me to cry here." As he spoke, he saluted Concubine Guo Ning, and said, "Thank you, Niangniang." ”

panicked, Concubine Guo Ning immediately got out of the way and said, "No, no." ”

Yun Xi walked into the courtyard and called Wang Bu. Wang Bu, like other palace maids and eunuchs, was kneeling on the ground and crying at this time, and when he heard Yun Xi's shout, he hurriedly got up and walked over. Yun Xi called Su Huaien and Li Jinzhong over again, and several strong eunuchs were also called over.

Yun Xi pointed at Li Jinzhong and said, "Li Jinzhong listens to the order. ”

Li Jinzhong had a bad thought in his heart, but he still knelt down reflexively.

Yun Xi said: "Emperor Daxing's will: I like Li Jinzhong's service very much, and I want him to follow the ground, and I will give Li Jinzhong a funeral. Then he said to the surrounding eunuchs: "Still not carrying out the will of Emperor Daxing?" ”

The surrounding eunuchs were stunned for a moment, and immediately stepped forward to drag Li Jinzhong. Li Jinzhong didn't care about anything else at this time, and said loudly: "How could the emperor make such a will? This ......" and then his mouth was covered, and then he was dragged to a secluded place, and then he died. But a whole corpse was left.

After Li Jinzhong was dragged away, Yun Xi stopped paying attention to him. Yun Xi stared at Su Huaien, who was already trembling beside him, and said, "Don't worry, Emperor Daxing left you to continue to help me take charge of the harem." Su Huaien recovered and thanked him.

Then Yun Xi said to him: "You immediately order the entire palace to mourn." I had already heard the bell just now, and I sent someone to inform the officials of the Ministry of Rites to enter the palace and go to the hall of the body. Su Huaien replied, "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

Yun Xi said to Wang Bu: "You are now Gonggong Su's deputy and assist him in taking care of the affairs in the palace. Wang Buye replied, "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

Yun Xi walked to the palace where Xi Yao was and asked the waiter, "How is Xi Yao now?" ”

The servant said: "Back to the palace, Your Majesty, after giving birth to the little prince, Niangniang has already fallen asleep, and she has not woken up yet. Do you want the slave to wake up the mother? ”

Yun Xi said, "No need. No, if she doesn't wake up tomorrow morning, wake her up, and let her sleep now. "Yun Xi's order is not very proper, but Yun Xi's personal idea is like this, and no one can stop him, so it is carried out.

But just now the servant mentioned the little prince, which made Yun Xi think of something in his heart: "What is the name of this eldest son?" ”

The name of the royal family of the Ming Empire is very distinctive, and the specific ones will not be introduced, anyway, the name is very difficult to choose. Yun Xi stood at the door and thought, "Do you want to use the word 'Yin'?" It's not proper, Zhu Wenyin, it's not good. Use the word 'base'? Zhu Wenji? It's not very good. (At this time, Zhu Zhanji was not yet born)

At this time, Su Huaien ran over and said to Yun Xi: "Your Majesty, there is something I forgot to say. Emperor Daxing thought about the name of the emperor's second son during his lifetime. Use this word. As he spoke, he pulled out a piece of paper. Yun Xi took a closer look, and there were three big characters written on the paper: "Zhu Wenyuan". "Emperor Daxing said that he would give it this name." Su Huaien added.

Yun Xi thought about it and felt that Zhu Wenyuan was okay, and even if it didn't sound good, he could only use this name. So he said: "From then on, my second son will be called Zhu Wenyuan." ”

Yun Xi looked at the little baby who was about to be carried to Xi Yao's side again, although his name problem was solved, Yun Xi still felt uncomfortable. But most of the people who have been princes for a long time in history will have a very unpleasant quarrel with the emperor at that time, distrust each other and even cause big trouble.

The more famous examples in history are Liu Che and Liu Ju, Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi, Xuan Ye and Yinren, Louis XIV and Louis XV, and so on. Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao also have a bit of this meaning, but Zhu Yuanzhang, as the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, is not worried that Zhu Biao will usurp the throne at all.

Therefore, in order to prevent this kind of thing, Yun Xi did not plan to canonize him as the crown prince after the official change of the era name next year. But now Lao Zhu can be said to have just waited for the little baby named Zhu Wenyuan to live a few more days, so he had to quickly make him the prince.

Zhu Di rebelled and became the emperor, but after more than two years of hesitation, he still had to make Zhu Gaochi the crown prince, largely because Zhu Gaochi was the son of Zhu Yuanzhang during his lifetime.

But it's useless to think about it now, Yun Xi ordered to pay attention to protecting Zhu Wenyuan, and then walked to the Jinshen Palace.
