Chapter 303: The Great Festival of the Winter Solstice
The next few days were very calm, the winter solstice festival is a major event of the imperial court, and it is also the most solemn temple of the year. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
For Zhu Changluo, the biggest difference is that there are several old-fashioned officials of the Ministry of Etiquette in the palace, urging him to practice etiquette every day.
On this day, the royal car came out of the inner palace, led the ministers to the Fengxian Palace, sent officials to sacrifice to heaven and earth, the emperor personally worshiped the ancestors of the three animals, the sacrifice was serious and respectful, but it was also boring.
However, this is also the requirement of the ceremony, and after tossing all morning, when the official of the Ministry of Rites finished reading a long greeting, it finally drew an end to this great ceremony.
Oh, no, according to the regulations, this ceremony is still the last step, Your Majesty should summon the ministers to worship the Heavenly Palace, and have a big court meeting, which can be regarded as a complete sacrifice!
However, there are always exceptions to everything, since the fourteenth year of Wanli, the emperor every winter solstice, after the sacrifice of the ancestral hall, he will order the exemption from the court, it has become a practice for many years, so basically, the official of the Ministry of Rites recites the blessing, and this great ceremony should be over.
Sure enough, after His Majesty walked out of the Fengxian Palace, Zhang Cheng, the eunuch who was the master of ceremonies beside him, immediately stepped forward, took a deep breath and planned to speak.
But at this moment, an abrupt voice suddenly sounded.
"Father, the son has a book!"
The ministers traced the source of the sound and looked, but saw Zhu Changluo dressed in a heavy pro-dynasty uniform, strode out of the court, knelt on the ground respectfully, and presented a note in his hand.
"Nonsense, this is the Fengxian Palace! Paying homage to such a big event as the Taimiao, how can you be so foolish, don't you hurry up and give me a retreat! ”
A trace of disgust flashed in Zhu Yijun's eyes, and a wave of anger gradually condensed between his eyebrows, and he shouted in a deep voice.
But Zhu Changluo had already prepared, how could he be so intimidated?
His face remained unchanged, but his back became straighter and straighter, and he said loudly.
"Father Emperor Mingjian, what the sons played is a military matter, the matter is as urgent as fire can not be delayed, the temple rests in the first emperors who have worked hard for the Ming Dynasty, if they know that the sons are for my Ming thoughts, they will definitely forgive the sons for the sin of disturbing the temple!"
"Nonsense, what urgent matter can be known to you without going through the cabinet? I see that you are deliberately trying to sensationalize the public, come to someone, and take down the Shouwang who disturbed the Taimiao Temple to me and lock it! ”
If Zhu Yijun was just angry at Zhu Changluo's behavior, then now he was angry.
Because things have developed to the point where they are now, he has already understood that today must have been planned by Zhu Changluo, although he doesn't know what he wants to do, but no matter what he wants to do, he chose to be in front of this group of ministers and choose this winter solstice festival, it must be because ordinary occasions and times cannot let him achieve his goal.
Therefore, Zhu Yijun's first reaction was to escort Zhu Changluo down, no matter what kind of major event happened, as long as he was not in front of this group of ministers, he would have much more room for mediation and choice.
So he didn't listen to what Zhu Changluo wanted to play, and directly ordered him to be locked down.
The name used is also legitimate, and it is not a trivial matter to disturb the rest of the previous emperors......
But it's a pity that what Zhu Yijun can think of, how could Zhu Changluo not think that he has been arranging for so long, how could he fall on the starting line.
At that moment, a high-ranking official in a scarlet robe stepped forward and knelt on the ground and said loudly.
"The military governor of the minister's office, the governor of the palace, Chongxin Bo Fei Jiajin, dare to ask Your Majesty to take a break from the wrath of the thunder, and listen to His Royal Highness King Shou!"
This is not over, with Fei Jiajin's departure, several high-ranking officials in scarlet robes stepped forward at the same time and knelt down and said.
"The former military capital governor's mansion palm seal Huaiyuan Marquis Chang Yinxu implores His Majesty to listen to what His Highness played!"
"The ministers and the military capital, the governor's mansion, the affairs of the Dingguo Gong, Xu Wenbi, please do the same!"
"The minister's right army is in charge of the governor's mansion, and the affairs of the palace are respectfully respected, and the marquis Wu Jijue is invited!"
…………
In the blink of an eye, a large group of scarlet-robed officers knelt behind Zhu Changluo, and they all had a common feature, they were all military generals, and there was no civil servant.
Such a large group of officials knelt down at the same time, accounting for almost half of the courtiers, but the scene was spectacular, so that the guards who were about to step forward couldn't help but stop.
"You dare!"
Zhu Yijun looked at the scene below, his heart was on fire, and he gritted his teeth and stared at Zhu Changluo word by word.
Zhu Changluo could even see the green tendons that were about to jump out of his forehead, but he was still kneeling upright, without saying a word, letting Zhu Yijun's imperial momentum all press on him.
Because he knows that he can't retreat at this time, this is the most difficult step in the whole thing.
If he can't bear it, then everything will be over, and even the large group of officials behind him will be implicated by him!
But in the final analysis, Zhu Yijun is no longer the young emperor who didn't understand anything and was young and impulsive.
Now that so many courtiers are kneeling here, if he still insists on taking Zhu Changluo down, then a faint monarch's hat that does not accept advice and does not take care of political affairs will definitely be buckled on his head.
Moreover, this is the Fengxian Palace, where the previous emperors have watched, and he can't afford to blaspheme the unfilial piety of the first emperor.
So even though he was already angry in his heart, Zhu Yijun was forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart, secretly planning to teach Zhu Changluo a good lesson after this incident, but his face calmed down, and he said in a cold voice.
"In that case, I want to see what kind of military affairs it is, so that you can't wait for a moment, and you have to play it in front of the previous emperors!"
However, he took a step back, but he didn't expect Zhu Changluo to take an inch, and continued.
"Father, this matter is related to the national system, it is complicated, one or two sentences are not clear, not to mention that this place is the Fengxian Palace, and the sons and ministers are afraid of disturbing the previous emperors, so they dare to ask the father to move to the Fengtian Palace and convene a great court meeting to discuss this matter in detail!"
"You are bold! What I want to do, you can't put your beak! ”
One sentence rekindled Zhu Yijun's anger, and he roared like thunder.
However, looking at the ministers kneeling below, he still had to continue to give in in the end, but this time he laughed angrily.
"Good, good, good! I really raised a good son! Since you insist on this, I will do what you want! But if I find out that you are bluffing, I will not only cure you for the crime of bullying the king, but also for the crime of disturbing the great rituals and disrespecting the ancestors, and then you will not have to do it as a prince, and you will be grounded in your palace forever! ”
With that, he flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.
At the same time, the gaze of a cadre of Wenchen looking at Zhu Changluo is also very complicated, some people admire Zhu Changluo's courage, and some people are full of disappointment in him, if he can't take care of it properly this time, I am afraid that Zhu Changluo will never have a chance to be the crown prince, and the efforts of these people over the years will be in vain.
Of course, what is sounding in the hearts of more people is an alarm, His Royal Highness King Shou, is this a complete connection with the military ministers?
Although not all of the military ministers kneeling at the bottom this time, they also accounted for the majority, especially the only remaining bigwigs in the military, and they all stood up!
Many people of insight are deeply worried about this......
But Zhu Changluo didn't have time to care about this, just in this short moment, his back was already soaked with cold sweat, which showed how much pressure he was under, but he didn't dare to relax his mind, took a deep breath, and strode in the direction of Fengtian Palace.
Next...... There's still a tough battle!
