Chapter 450: Hongwu Order
In the past two days, because the five great Confucians have been gathered at the gate of the palace, it has not only put a lot of pressure on the crown prince, but also on the imperial court.
They had to pay more and more attention to this matter, to the ideas of Confucianism.
However, no matter how important things are, they are not as important as the ancestor worship ceremony.
The crown prince decided to completely solve the sea ban after the ancestor worship ceremony was over.
Therefore, in the past two days, the officials of the Ministry of Rites have been busy, they have been running around, buying all kinds of materials, as well as things needed to worship ancestors.
Until the day of ancestor worship, the hundred officials had to get up, and then gathered at the gate of the palace, and there were forbidden troops, the royal forest army, guarded around.
The scene was large and crowded.
When everything was ready for this ancestor worship and all kinds of ritual music were playing, Zhu Di also walked out of the palace.
Today, what they want to sacrifice is naturally the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang!
Zhu Yuanzhang's mausoleum is in Fengyang, the central capital, so it is impossible for them to go to Fengyang, the central capital, to worship, but they can hold a grand ancestor worship ceremony on the sacrificial platform outside Yingtianfu.
This is also a project that must be carried out every year.
After Zhu Di came out, he sat on the dragon and let the eunuchs in the audience carry him, and set off towards the outside of Yingtianfu.
Hundred officials, they are followed by their entourage.
Behind them, there were countless forbidden armies, royal forest troops, and the emperor's twelve personal guards.
There were about 5,000 people in the mighty wave, heading towards the outside of Yingtianfu.
On this day, the people are not allowed to go out, and they need to wait for the end of the ancestor worship ceremony before they can farm.
Zhu Zhanji firmly followed his grandfather's dragon and walked towards the outside of Ying Tianfu.
It's just that in his mind, what comes to mind is always a different picture.
He has already arranged for someone to bring the five great Confucians secretly, and when the ancestor worship ceremony begins, the five great Confucians will appear again, maybe he can change the emperor's mind.
For the sake of today, this is the only way.
If you can't see it at other times, you can only see it at the ancestor worship ceremony.
……
About half an hour later, the procession of 5,000 people stopped outside the altar.
This huge altar symbolizes the majesty of the royal family, and there are many town guards in it, all of whom come out to greet them at this time.
Zhu Di took the lead in the forefront, walking towards the sacrificial platform step by step, where the chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep had already been arranged, Zhu Di walked to the front of the sacrificial platform, looking at the huge sacrificial platform, his eyes flashed with emotion.
He seems to have returned to the era when Zhu Yuanzhang was still there, and to the time when he was still the king of Yan.
The eunuch read the words of the ancestor worship ceremony on the side, and after a lot of red tape had passed, the eunuch stood up straight and shouted: "Emperor, kneel!" ”
A shout.
Zhu Di knelt down and knelt on the futon.
Looking at the sacrificial platform, Zhu Di muttered: "Dad, I came to sacrifice this year, and I fought outside in previous years, so please don't blame Dad." ”
"And mother, how are you two doing in heaven?"
At this time, Zhu Di did not look like an emperor, but more like an ordinary person, missing his parents.
"The annual ancestor worship ceremony, I don't know if your second elder can get used to eating this thing, hehe, if you can't get used to it, you can give your son a dream, and your son will give you another one next year."
chattering, Zhu Di knelt there and said a lot.
In front of Ming Taizu, Zhu Di seemed to be like a child, and there seemed to be many things waiting for him to talk about.
Next, it was the prince who stepped forward and bowed.
The eunuch shouted: "Prince, kneel!" ”
With the shouts of the eunuch, the fat prince was about to step forward, but at this moment, Zhu Di, who was kneeling, turned around, looked at Zhu Zhanji, and beckoned to Zhu Zhanji: "Taisun, you come first." ”
Zhu Zhanji was slightly stunned.
The crown prince suddenly retreated with embarrassment.
The officials of the Ministry of Rites wanted to stop it, because it was not in line with etiquette, and the prince was not dead, so let the grandson step forward first, isn't this a violation of the rules?
However, the one in front of them was the Yongle Emperor, so they didn't dare to say more.
Zhu Zhanji wanted to comfort his father.
The crown prince patted him on the shoulder and said with a wry smile: "Go, go." ”
Zhu Zhanji nodded, walked in the direction of the altar, and walked up.
Walking to the old man's side, Zhu Zhanji honestly knelt on the futon, waiting for the old man's next move.
The old man smiled, looked at the sacrificial platform, and said with a smile: "Dad, look at it, this is your great-grandson, this kid is very powerful in fighting, and he is both civil and military, our old Zhu family can produce such a monarch, and Daming will be a Ming monarch in the future." ”
Zhu Di seems to have great hopes for Zhu Zhanji.
After saying this, Zhu Di urged: "Stinky boy, come and see your grandfather." ”
Zhu Zhanji paused for a moment, and then hurriedly raised his hand high and gave a big gift to his grandfather.
At this moment, Zhu Zhanji's heart suddenly stirred.
For he knew who he worshipped.
It's Lao Zhu!
It was the old Zhu who expelled Meng Yuan in one fell swoop and restored my homeland in China!
It was he who opened a bowl and laid down the old Zhu of the whole world, not only that, but he also restored the sixteen states of Yanyun and completely drove the foreigners out of Huaxia Shenzhou.
Such a feat can be called an emperor through the ages, he is such a big man, but now he has become his great-grandfather.
It is difficult not to make Zhu Zhanji's heart fluctuate.
Because he really wants to see and see, the demeanor of this emperor of the ages when he was alive.
It's a pity that the hero is old, and the grandfather can only be in the sky.
Zhu Zhanji respected this grandfather very much, and kowtowed to the grandfather three times before getting up.
Zhu Di smiled: "Your grandfather handed over the country to me, I will pass it on to your father, and when the time comes, your father will pass it on to you, our Daming, it will be four generations of prosperity." ”
Speaking of this, Zhu Di was a little proud.
Only in his vein can three generations of emperors be strong.
If he is replaced by Zhu Yunwen, he himself will not be able to do it, and how powerful can his descendants be?
Therefore, for Zhu Yunwen, the old man himself has a disdainful mentality.
The old man's words made Yang Shiqi deeply agree.
Yang Shiqi, who was standing below, couldn't help but smile and nodded: "His Royal Highness Taisun is intelligent, loyal and filial, and he will definitely be a generation of Ming Jun in the future." ”
Zhu Di smiled, very useful.
Although the old man usually doesn't like to be in shape, if someone praises his grandson, he is happier than he praises himself.
The old man has nothing in his life, he just hopes that the younger generations can manage the country well, so he has high expectations for his grandson.
Seeing that the old man smiled, the other officials also spoke in unison.
"His Royal Highness Taisun is loyal and filial, intelligent and intelligent, and he will definitely be the Holy Monarch of the Ming Dynasty in the future!"
"His Royal Highness Taisun is loyal and filial, and he will definitely be the Holy Monarch of the Ming Dynasty in the future!"
The hundred officials shouted in unison, and the sound resounded throughout the sacrificial platform.
With a smile on his face, Zhu Di turned his head to look at the sacrificial platform and muttered, "Dad, did you hear that?" All the officials in our court are praising your great-grandson. ”
However.
That's when it happened.
An untimely voice suddenly sounded.
"Loyalty and filial piety are unparalleled, this is a bad statement."
"Since the founding of Hongwu, Ming Taizu laid the Ming Dynasty, set the capital of Nanjing, the capital of Fengyang, expelled Meng Yuan, and smashed the beginning of the Yuan capital, forty years of time, but there are those who rebel against the ancestors?"
"Is there anyone who tampered with the teachings of the ancestors?"
"Is there anyone who is disrespectful and disrespectful to the ancestors?"
"In the past forty years, the whole country has been empty, only His Royal Highness Taisun, how can he be loyal and filial?"
A small giving, with a generous statement, stood up.
He is the cannon fodder sent by Hu Ying, in order to exaggerate the atmosphere, completely push His Royal Highness Taisun down the abyss at this ancestor worship ceremony, and let everyone completely break the heart of the sea ban!
In the middle of the matter, he knelt on the ground with a thud.
shouted: "Please ask His Royal Highness Taisun to take back his order and dispel the idea of opening the sea ban!" ”
