That's right, the holy decree in the hand of the great luck is that the imperial court suddenly issued a decree, so that Zhu Houxuan, the son of King Xingxian, officially took the title of King Xing and became a new generation of princes.

This made Wanxing pleasantly surprised, but also secretly relieved, because it shows that the timeline is not wrong, and the storyline is not wrong.

Although the Ming Dynasty at this time had many strange things, at least the general history was the same, and it was no different from his original.

For example, Emperor Zhengde at this time should have really had something wrong, and he had to find someone to inherit the throne, otherwise he would not let Zhu Houxi, who was still mourning for his father, end the mourning period early and take the throne.

After all, it has only been 19 months since the dedication of the king, and according to the etiquette system of the Ming Dynasty at this time, the first king died, and Zhu Houxi, as the son of the vassal king, had to give him 27 months of filial piety, that is, three years.

Of course, the three years here are not the three years that everyone understands, because the normal three years are thirty-six months, but here it is twenty-seven months.

That's the case, the three years here refer to the full three years, that is, from the day of the death of the father, the year will be automatically counted and counted as the first year.

Therefore, the full entry of three years is actually the twenty-fifth month after the twenty-four months, which is considered to be the full three years.

But because there are leap months in the ancient lunar calendar, leap months are not counted, and if the first month and the last month of your filial piety are both leap months, then you have to add two more months.

Therefore, considering all factors, in order to avoid confusion caused by mathematical miscalculations, the ancients uniformly set the time of filial piety as 27 months, that is, the origin of three years of filial piety.

After all, it is rare to not be able to have fun, not to play, and not even to engage in color for 27 months of filial piety for parents, which can be regarded as a rare filial piety, if you really have to keep it for three years, it is estimated that you have to suffocate people to death, and no one can do it at all, even if the saint is afraid that he will not be able to withstand it.

But even if it is twenty-seven months, the time has been shortened by one-third, and Zhu Houxuan still hasn't finished it.

You must know that he has only been guarding his father for nineteen months now, and there are still eight full months before he gets rid of filial piety, and most of the year is far from over, so he suddenly came to the holy decree to stop keeping filial piety, and he doesn't have to continue to hold back, he can enjoy himself, it's very wrong.

Because in the history of the Ming Dynasty, there has never been a matter of stopping filial piety to inherit his father's throne before the time for filial piety has arrived, which is really a long time to see.

If this is known by that group of Qingliu civil officials, they will have to be caught and sprayed, and they will be sprayed with blood, and even the throne will have to be sprayed off, and they will be directly eliminated.

Therefore, according to the normal procedure, the first thing Zhu Houxi has to do is to complete the filial piety, and after the official period expires and the filial piety is removed, he will go to the table and ask for the throne, and only after the emperor and the cabinet pass can he attack the king, which is also the normal succession process of the vassal king.

Even if that's the case, you'll have to wait for a long time, and even those who haven't been dragging it out for you abound, just boiling you to death, and then getting rid of the domain.

For example, Emperor Wanli directly opened the pendulum, boiled, boiled hard, let alone the vassal king, the officials have been boiled a lot, and the six departments and Jiuqing have directly boiled more than half.

After all, since Emperor Taizong succeeded in Jingnan and ascended to the throne as a vassal king, he has been very wary and jealous of other vassal kings, for fear that they will also come to such a parody show.

Therefore, one of the ways to take advantage of various opportunities to attack and weaken the strength of the vassal king is to delay and not do it for you.

Especially now, the vassal king has become a big burden in the Ming Dynasty, a heavy economic burden, and the annual distribution of the vassal kings to the clans of the local vassal kings accounts for a quarter of the imperial court income.

Therefore, if you can delay one more day, if you can delay one more year, if you can delay it for one more year, you will lose one year of Lumi, which can save a lot of financial expenses for the imperial court.

There is no such thing as rushing to let you inherit the throne, or in the case of destroying the etiquette system, it feels too lowly.

It's as if this throne can't be given away, and I'm afraid that you won't be able to accept it, so I shoehorn it into you, it's really cheap, you usually have to beg them, and you have to look at their faces, not them coming to you.

In particular, the group of self-proclaimed civil officials attach great importance to etiquette, which is the foundation of their lives, and it is also a means of attacking people.

But now it's just like this, which shows that something is wrong.

And of course, this can't be a problem on their side, then there is only one possibility left, that is, the court is abnormal, or in other words, Zhu Houzhao is abnormal, something is really wrong!

Therefore, seeing the fortunate Daoxi, Zhu Houxi also smiled a little excitedly, and a trace of fire flashed in his eyes, but he was quickly pressed down, and he stopped.

"Okay You'an, it's all said, you don't have to pay attention to so much hypocrisy at this time, let's talk about business, do you know what it means for the imperial court to issue this somewhat abnormal holy decree at this time?"

Hearing this, hearing Zhu Houxi's question, fortunately his heart was immediately moved, knowing that this was what he meant by the school exam, but he couldn't be careless, so after thinking about it for a while, he said in a deep voice.

"Returning to His Royal Highness, it should be related to the last time His Majesty suddenly fell into the water, I heard that after His Majesty fell into the water last time, his life was in danger, and there was a danger of the dragon returning to the sky."

nodded, and glanced at him in some surprise, Zhu Houxi was also delighted.

"Haha, it seems that after being smashed by tiles, You'an, you are really enlightened, that's right, my cousin has been seriously injured and dying since he fell into the water for no reason last time, and according to the secret report sent back by our secret agent in the capital, my cousin may have ......"

As he spoke, a trace of fire flashed in his eyes again, but seeing Zhu Houxi's expression, he was a little excited and cold.

"And he has no heirs, so I think that group of princes of the court will be so eager for me to inherit the throne, this is a god-given opportunity for this king, the throne of the world is within reach!"

Including the chief official Yuan Zonggao on the side, they all pinched their beards and nodded slowly.

"Your Highness is right, I heard that the imperial court has sent an envoy to our Anlu Prefecture, and there are His Majesty Zhengde's confidant Gu Dayong, the scholar Liang Chu, the Duke of Dingguo Xu Guangzuo, the concubine Captain Cui Yuan, and the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Mao Cheng, etc., on the surface, they are here to congratulate Your Highness on your attack on the throne, but in fact it is not, because if it is just a raid, it should not be so courteous."

"I estimate that His Majesty Zhengde should have returned to the sky, but he is just a secret mourner, and the purpose of the mission is to welcome you into Beijing to succeed to the throne under the pretext of congratulating you on the king's attack, but it is not simple, how to act next, we have to plan carefully."

"Because I expect that there will definitely be a big chaos in the next court, if you are not careful, there will be the possibility of chickens and eggs, so you must not be careless, the more at this time, the more you must act carefully, plan and then act, in order to help Your Highness you take the fire and sit firmly in the world!"
