Chapter 4 The Queen Arrives

The emperor before Lao Zhu could have many era names, such as Wu Zetian, who changed the era name, there were more than a dozen, and the reasons for changing the era name were also strange, and even according to rumors, because he was too satisfied with a certain male pet, he changed the era name Ruyi......

Of course, when the emperor changes the name of the era, he will rewrite the calendar, and the official documents of the court will also be adjusted accordingly, and the administrative cost will be greatly increased, especially among the people, and they will also be adjusted, which will inevitably disturb the people.

Therefore, Lao Zhu, who is thrifty by nature, no longer changes the year name, but the first emperor and the first number.

Since the Ming Dynasty, it has been possible to call a certain son of heaven by the name of the year.

Therefore, the era name has become particularly important, which is the name of the emperor.

Zhu Di had just succeeded in appeasement and ascended the throne as emperor, so he got the name of an anti-thief, which felt similar to eating two catties of rat feces. Don't talk about that depression.

Zhu Gaoxu was also stupid, he really checked it to see if there were any duplicates, but the problem was that he only looked at the orthodox dynasty, Fang La's kind of anti-thief, who knows what his year name is?

"Idiot, why don't you have a snack?"

Zhu Di's pupils are bloodshot, he is really angry, he is different from the normal successor of the Son of Heaven, and he has the same era name as the thief, and he is monstrous and angry, which can be imagined.

It was the first time Zhu Gaoxu had seen his father so terrible, he was busy lying on the ground, kowtowing, "Father, don't do the affairs of your sons, it's all the Ministry of Rites, and the Hanlin Academy...... The children are going to get them now, and they're all headed! ”

After speaking, Zhu Gaoxu got up and was about to run outside, killing people was secondary, the key was to escape from the angry Zhu Di as soon as possible.

"Wait!"

Xu Jingchang stopped Zhu Gaoxu, and hurriedly turned to Zhu Di and said, "Your Majesty, the minister only vaguely remembers that he has been indulging in his father's funeral a few days ago and can't extricate himself. Now that His Majesty is here, I occasionally think of it, and I don't know whether it's right or wrong. Now that the edict of enthronement has been promulgated, the minister thinks that His Majesty seems to be the right one to check whether what the minister said is correct. Even if the minister is not wrong, please think twice before acting......"

Zhu Di's eyebrows twitched, he had already believed seventy percent, and those civil officials who were still thinking about Emperor Jianwen might indeed use this method to give themselves eye medicine.

I thought that it would be difficult to succeed, and I sat on the dragon chair, and the world had to listen to myself, but now I look at it, but I think it is simple.

There's still a long way to go!

Zhu Di pondered again and again, and finally did not have a seizure, but squeezed out two words from between his teeth, "Go back to the palace." ”

After speaking, Zhu Di snorted and left, at this moment, he was like a volcano that could erupt at any time, and it was extremely dangerous. But the unlucky Zhu Gaoxu has to follow behind. Waiting for the monstrous rage.

This taste is too sour, and now he can't take care of the affairs of the Xu family anymore, just want to protect himself.

Looking at their distant backs, Xu Jingchang couldn't wait to go over and take a look, but this kind of thing is related to Zhu Di's face, and it is not easy to publicize it before the Son of Heaven makes a decision.

But even so, Xu Jingchang was in a good mood, and even found a purple bamboo fishing rod left by his father.

Now that he is still in mourning, he can't go to Xuanwu Lake, so he will go to the pond in the back garden of the Xu family to try his hand.

Finally, I can live a life of worry-free food and clothing, fishing all day long.

This is the real honor!

It's a pity that Xu Jingchang didn't be happy for a day, and the news came that Queen Xu had entered Beijing!

Xu Jingchang was also stunned, before Zhu Di ascended the throne, he sent a letter to his aunt, from Beiping to Yingtian, it is not a short road, and it would be good if Luan drove to Xuzhou.

When my letter was delivered, it only took three days, and it came too quickly, right?

Xu Jingchang really guessed correctly, Queen Xu will be the tiger girl, and after getting the news, she traveled five hundred miles a day and went directly to Yingtian.

And after entering Beijing, I didn't go to the palace, I came directly to Xufu.

"Meet the Queen."

Xu Jingchang was busy saluting his aunt and hurriedly invited her into the study to sit down.

Empress Xu looked at her eldest nephew and said directly: "Don't gossip, you wrote to me and said two things, one is the eldest brother's matter, and the other is the second brother's matter." You ask me what to do, and I want to ask you now, how did you calculate it? ”

Xu Jingchang pondered for a moment and said, "Queen Mother, this matter ......"

"Don't call me the Empress, I haven't been officially canonized yet. You call me aunt in the letter, this kindness, no matter what time it is, it is a family. Empress Xu made a statement.

Xu Jingchang perked up and said busily: "Thank you aunt, the little nephew will also have the courage to say bluntly, these two things are actually the same, as long as the position of the prince is solved and the idea of the king of Han is dispelled, the world will naturally be peaceful." ”

Empress Xu raised her head suddenly, stared at Xu Jingchang, and snorted: "Why are you sure that King Han can't be the prince?" He is also my son, and His Majesty likes him and has prestige in the army. Could it be that just because he offended the Xu family, he couldn't become a prince? ”

Xu Jingchang hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Auntie, how dare the little nephew separate the relationship between the mother and son of the Heavenly Family, I just think that if His Royal Highness becomes the prince, these sisters-in-law of my aunt will be safe and sound, but if the King of Han is allowed to ascend the throne, with his style, I am afraid that he will not show mercy." At that time, it will not be the Xu family who will die. ”

Empress Xu took a sharp breath, her face changed again and again, and finally sighed heavily.

Zhu Gaochi is benevolent, he is the prince, and his brothers can live.

Zhu Gaoxu is ruthless, for the position of a prince, he can kill his uncle without hesitation, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and when he becomes the emperor, he will not destroy his brothers and brothers!

In fact, this meaning Xu Jingchang has been vaguely expressed in the letter, and because of this, Queen Xu can't wait to see Xu Jingchang. The eldest brother's life is very important, but the fight between the two sons made her even more exhausted and sad.

"Jingchang, what you said is reasonable, but now all the generals in the army support King Han, I am a mother, even if I am biased, I can't force Your Majesty to do things, do you understand my difficulties?"

Xu Jingchang nodded and said, "The little nephew understands, but the little nephew thinks that this matter is not so troublesome and easy to solve." ”

"Easy?" Empress Xu snorted: "In the past, brothers kill each other, father and son turn against each other, how easy is it?" ”

Xu Jingchang said: "Although it is difficult to say what will happen in the future, but the storage position of His Royal Highness is set by Emperor Taizu, and His Majesty is the filial son of Taizu, as long as this matter is given to His Majesty, His Highness's storage position will be stable." As for what will happen next, Your Majesty is in full bloom in spring and autumn, so you can take your time. ”

Empress Xu was shocked again, thinking for a moment in her heart, she couldn't help but smile.

Indeed, this nephew is not simple!

Zhu Gaochi's position as the son was canonized by Zhu Yuanzhang when he was alive.

From the prince to the prince, it is logical.

Especially when it comes to Zhu Di, he has just succeeded in Jingjing, and he advertises himself as Zhu Yuanzhang's most intimate son everywhere. One of the reasons why Jing Nan raised troops was also that Zhu Yunwen, instigated by traitors, destroyed the ancestral system and disobeyed Zhu Yuanzhang's last orders.

All in all, at this time, no matter who or what happens, as long as they are implicated with Lao Zhu, they will become sacrosanct.

"What you say is reasonable, I'll just tell Your Majesty directly? Is it proper? ”

Xu Jingchang thought for a while, then smiled: "Auntie, if you are willing, find a way to get a testament." ”

"Get a copy?" Empress Xu was shocked, "You asked me to forge the edict?" ”

"It's not forged, it's just a draft edict, which roughly means that Emperor Taizu wants to appoint the fourth son of the emperor as the prince...... Then in this edict, it is enough to write the words of the fourth son, King Yan, who is wise and wise, and the emperor's grandson Gao Chi Dun is benevolent. ”

In the past few years, Empress Xu has led troops to defend the city, organized logistics, and appeased people's hearts, and she has also sharpened it.

To get a copy of Zhu Yuanzhang's edict is tantamount to further saying that Zhu Di's succession is a matter of course.

It was those traitors who violated Taizu's last wishes and had to support Zhu Yunwen to the throne, so there was a battle of martyrdom.

It doesn't matter if anyone believes it or not, it's all a must.

By the way, Zhu Gaochi was added, as long as Zhu Di accepted this so-called edict, Zhu Gaochi's position as the prince would be confirmed by the way.

Empress Xu looked at her young nephew, and said for a long time: "Child, I haven't seen you for four or five years, you have grown up so much, your mind is open, and my aunt is so amazed!" ”

Xu Jingchang was stunned, did he think he was a little too smart?

"Auntie, what do you think the little nephew can do? My father is gone, even if the uncle can survive, he will not be reused, such a big Xu family, the little nephew is really trembling, walking on thin ice, like facing the abyss...... I, how am I going to keep this home? Xu Jingchang's voice was sad.

Hearing this, Queen Xu's eyes also turned red, the eldest brother was on death row, the fourth brother died tragically, and the Xu family didn't even have a man who could stand on top of the house.

"Your Majesty is in trouble, but the Xu family is gone." Empress Xu snorted: "Don't worry, with my aunt here, no one in the Ming Dynasty can bully the Xu family." I'll write a letter to Gao Chi and tell him what you told me. You are also brothers, and you will support each other in the future, and my aunt will be relieved. ”

Xu Jingchang nodded hurriedly, "As long as it is ordered by my aunt, my little nephew will definitely do it." ”

Empress Xu smiled, "Okay, I should also go into the palace to see Your Majesty, you are so capable, my aunt will definitely find you a good errand, no one should think of underestimating the Xu family!" ”

Xu Jingchang paused and said: "The little nephew is still mourning, the key is the King of Han, and I hope that my aunt can take care of one or two." ”

"Take care of him?" Empress Xu was puzzled, "Don't you support the boss?" ”

Xu Jingchang said: "That's Lichu, everyone is still a relative." He misused Fang La's year name, and His Majesty was furious. ”

Hearing this, Empress Xu's anger instantly rose......
