Chapter 32, Fengtian carries the emperor

Wei Bin was a little humble and claimed: "There has always been no custom in the palace, but it is a rule for the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager to live in Renshou and Qingning Palaces......"

Zhu Houxi understood, and his face was slightly cold.

Empress Dowager Zhang played this little trick, did she want to embarrass him Jiajing?

The East and West Sixth Palaces are the emperor's harem residences, what does it mean to place Concubine Shao here?

Zhu Houzhao died, and her queen was quickly arranged to go to Qingning Palace, another residence of the queen mother.

And the Empress Dowager Shao Clan, who is higher in rank than Empress Dowager Zhang, although she moved from the Yinghua Palace, which was originally in worse conditions, to Weiyang Palace, and said that this is her original old residence, but the rules are here!

Weiyang Palace is on Neixi Road, located in the northeast corner of Renshou Palace.

Zhu Houxi went around and returned here.

In the nervous mood of Wei Bin and others, Zhu Houxi didn't say anything first.

When I arrived at the gate of Weiyang Palace, I saw the palace maid holding an old woman with her hands open to the door, she looked around with blank eyes, tears in her eyes: "Has the emperor arrived?" Where is the emperor? ”

"Grandmother, grandson here." Zhu Houxi hurriedly walked over.

Concubine Shao burst into tears, touched his face with trembling hands, and touched the top of his head to measure his size: "Great, really good......"

The old man's pure family affection made Zhu Houxi's heart soften and sour, and he held her hand and slowly walked to the main hall: "Grandmother, my grandson is back now." In the near future, the mother and your two granddaughters will also be coming, and you will be able to live together and enjoy your family to the fullest. ”

Concubine Shao just kept leaving tears of joy: "Great, great......"

She still looked at Zhu Houxi in front of her, but there was no focus in her eyes.

Concubine Shao gave birth to a total of three sons, but these three sons have all died after becoming adults, and there is only one boy in her grandson's generation, Zhu Houxi.

In this kind of day when I heard that my sons died one by one and my grandsons died early, Concubine Shao, the concubine in the past and the marginal person in the Forbidden City, cried blindly.

But her only remaining grandson is now about to ascend the throne as emperor.

This wonderful fate, as well as the true feelings of the old concubine, made the other eunuchs and palace maids in Weiyang Palace sigh for a while, or cry with other purposes.

Zhu Houxi stayed in Weiyang Palace for a while before leaving here at the urging of Concubine Shao.

"Go, today is your big day, come and see Grandmother when you have time. Now my grandmother eats and wears all the food, dresses and sees my grandchildren. ”

Concubine Shao obviously couldn't see it, but now she finally laughed happily.

Zhu Houxi left Weiyang Palace, and his heart was not very calm.

said that I don't have to worry about food and clothing now, but I'm afraid that I was worried before.

The situation in Weiyang Palace seems to be much better than that of Qingning Palace, but that is probably because there was Zhu Houzhao's concubine living in it before, and there have always been people to maintain it.

Now, in addition to the palace maids and eunuchs brought by Zhu Houxi from Anlu, Empress Dowager Zhang also sent some people over.

If he hadn't entered this palace city, Concubine Shao would not have had this kind of treatment.

Although the current treatment is very strange, it reveals careful thinking and temptation.

Only when I saw three people in the harem, walked through the walls of this palace, and saw the people who really lived here at the moment, their lives came alive in front of them.

Who lived in Weiyang Palace two months ago, and where is it being driven now?

"Zhang Song, go back and wait in the Weiyang Palace first." Zhu Houxi opened his mouth.

"The slave obeys." Zhang Song had no intention of being dissatisfied at all, although he would stay away from those prominent positions in the palace first.

said that he was going to Weiyang Palace, but in essence, he was serving the emperor's real relatives.

He understands the princess...... No, the Queen Mother will definitely come to the palace soon. How could the concubine and the queen mother have been living in this Weiyang Palace?

Zhu Houxi looked at the entrance of Renshou Palace not far away, and asked in detail about the names of each palace pavilion while walking towards Fengtian Palace.

Under this question, he looked up at the Fengtian Hall in front of the Huagai Hall not far away, it was obviously much larger than the Taihe Hall in his memory.

It turns out that the Forbidden City at this time is quite different from the Forbidden City that I visited in later generations.

There is no Cining Palace at all, there are no two matching halls on both sides of the Qianqing Palace, and there is no trace of the famous Heart Cultivation Palace.

There is also a small Qin'an Hall in the imperial garden, which is the place where the Emperor Zhenwu is enshrined.

Since entering the city, he has been running around non-stop all this time.

As soon as he arrived at the Fengtian Palace, Zhu Houxi was still staring at the huge pillar that was nearly 100 meters wide and needed to be hugged by three or four people in the hall, and Zhang Zuo, who was waiting there, greeted him: "Your Majesty, the elders of the pavilion have sent the edict of enthronement. ”

Zhu Houxi took the edict, opened it, and walked to the throne to read it carefully.

The throne is surrounded by six dragon pillars with gold lacquer, the jewel in the mouth of the carved dragon in the center of the roof of the hall is facing the throne, and the crane, the furnace and the carved dragon screen surround the throne of the carved dragon with gold lacquer.

After reading it, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It is worthy of being a learned bachelor." ”

In a hurry, it is difficult for them to quickly change a version. It is necessary not only to satisfy Zhu Houxi's intentions, but also to take into account the seriousness of the enthronement edict.

Wei Bin knelt under the throne and said sincerely: "Slave and maid thank Your Majesty for your mercy. ”

Zhu Houxi glanced at him lightly: "It's not all for you, besides, I didn't let them delete it." You better think about how to make up for it, the foreign minister is not so easy to dismiss. ”

"Your Majesty, the slave understand......s," Wei Bin stood up and sighed in his heart.

Even Yang Ting and them were losing and retreating, Wei Bin and the others didn't dare to have any more extravagant hopes, just save a small life.

His Majesty is in the palace today, not only Empress Dowager Zhang has already learned his methods, but Wei Bin and them also know that there is no room for the three of them to play freely.

Empress Dowager Zhang is not his opponent, so where do you need these old people in the palace? As for the confrontation with the foreign ministers, the new king must still use the new people.

"With the seal, let's get started."

Zhu Houxi sat on the throne, and looked at the honor guards and officials who had already stood inside and outside the hall.

Honglu Temple, please issue the edict of enthronement.

The head of the Hanlin Academy held the edict and handed it to the officials of the Ministry of Rites.

The commander of the Jinyi Guard took the edict at the noon gate and ceremoniously prevented it from being in the clouds.

The edict of enthronement slowly arrived at Chengtianmen and was handed over to the ceremonial officer in charge of reading the edict.

The chiming drum sounded again, and the specially selected loud celebrant recited aloud.

"Ascender, kneel!"

"Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: I inherit the emperor's life, and the flood of the saints of Lai Lie rests......"

“…… He takes next year as the first year of Jiajing, grants amnesty to the world, and starts with the people......"

The hundreds of officials kneeling outside the Chengtian Gate were all quietly listening to the terms that were read out one by one.

Everyone who understands understands it, but this enthronement edict doesn't seem to be the same!

When Emperor Zhengde ascended the throne, among the 43 new policies in the edict, 13 were pardons and forgiveness, 23 were to clarify the magnates and disturb the people, and 7 were to recommend talents and open up the way.

This edict is divided into several categories, a number of small decrees, many of which are very strangely worded, and it does not make it clear which regulations will be implemented.

It seems that the new policy is unprecedented, but it is not clear, which is clearly a manifestation of the fact that it has not yet been agreed.

How could the elders draw up such an edict? Or does the Son of Heaven have other ideas?

No matter what they think, the enthronement ceremony is carried out precisely one link at a time.

After the ceremony, the eleventh son of the Ming Dynasty finally officially ascended the throne.
