Chapter 451: Today's Meeting, Alone for Three Things!
In the midst of the anxiety of countless officials, Zhu Gaoxian ordered the convening of the first court meeting after his return to Beijing.
He was originally the prince of the prison country, and now that Zhu Di is already in the sky, he is the justifiable prince of the Ming Dynasty, and he can successfully take charge of this huge empire just by succeeding to the throne.
Therefore, after learning that the court meeting will be held today, many people finally breathed a sigh of relief, and they could barely put their minds at ease.
No matter how the Jinyi guards and soldiers are arrested in the past few days, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is willing to hold a court meeting, it means that the situation has tended to ease and will not deteriorate further.
And as long as the situation can be stabilized and the Jingshi is no longer chaotic because of this, then for many people, it can be regarded as the catastrophe has passed, and the follow-up can be slowly recalculated......
Therefore, after Zhu Gaoxian sat in the Taihe Palace, even if there were many absent ministers, such as Wang Zhi and Cui Shangshu who were arrested in the prison, these officials still seemed a little excited.
"Heh," Zhu Gaoxian was expressionless, but he sneered in his heart.
These people are the so-called mainstays of the Ming Dynasty today, and hundreds of officials control the entire Ming Dynasty's governing policy and future direction.
If you want to say whether their ability is good or not, Zhu Gaoxian thinks that there is still a question mark.
After all, although the Ming Dynasty said that the country was extremely upright, the founding time was still short, and several nobles, civil ministers and military generals, as well as all kinds of chaotic families, were all crowded in this small circle, and the water in it was also very deep......
And because of Lao Zhu's indiscriminate killing and harshness in his later years, coupled with Emperor Jianwen's blind tossing, and Zhu Di's miraculous Jedi prosperity, after a wave of Jing Nan ascended the throne, it is really difficult to say which side of the officials of the Ming Dynasty are biased in their hearts.
At least in Zhu Gaoxian's view, except for the confidant officials of his own department, the rest of these Ming officials, no matter how clean and righteous they are, do not really stand on the position of the people.
And Zhu Gaoxian himself has the thousand-year-old wisdom and experience of later generations, and has the help of various personalities, knowing that if the Ming Dynasty wants to go to glory and stand on the top of the world, it must break the cage of these officials and families, completely liberate the people, and let the children of the poor family on the stage of the Ming Dynasty in the true sense, and shine for the rise and prosperity of the Ming Dynasty.
As the saying goes, it is necessary to overthrow the landlords and local tyrants, break the class monopoly, and take the proletariat as the foundation......
Zhu Gaoxian sat on a high place and his thoughts were flying, but the officials below were surprised, what was going on?
Why didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince speak?
If you don't speak, how will this morning meeting begin?
Didn't you see that the scholars next to you gave you a few looks?
In desperation, Yang Rong, the first assistant of the cabinet, had to cough a few times, which made Zhu Gaoxian, who was outside the world, come back to his senses.
With a glance, he understood that his thoughts were flying just now, but it had brought great pressure to everyone, and he immediately smiled slightly:
"Zhuqing, today's court meeting will officially begin."
With the loud announcement of the chamberlain, the court meeting also officially kicked off.
Yang Rong, the first assistant to the cabinet, took the lead in the queue and reported to Zhu Gaoxian one by one:
"His Royal Highness the Prince, there are three main matters in today's government."
"First, the number of the Emperor's Temple."
"Second, it is up to you to the throne."
"Third, the crime of conspiring against the minister."
"Your Highness, please."
According to the rules set by Zhu Gaoxian before, the cabinet is directly under the palace, and has the right to govern the six ministries, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, and is also in charge of the three departments of civil affairs, Xingjiao, and military and political affairs.
At this time, he opened his mouth and threw out the matter agreed between Zhu Gaoxian and a few people yesterday in the court, which immediately caused the officials below to start discussing.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Gaoxian didn't say anything, and the supervising imperial history was first angry.
"Silence!"
After the hall was quiet, Zhu Gaoxian slowly spoke, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was shocked:
"Lone has found out that his father was killed by a traitor."
"As for the murderer and the mastermind behind it, they have all been arrested and imprisoned, and Xu Jingchang, the original Duke of the country, instructed Yang Qing, the inner servant, and Wang Cheng, the imperial doctor, and others to poison their father together."
As soon as Zhu Gaoxian's words came out, all the officials in the entire hall were shocked!
The first emperor was poisoned!
And the commander is still the high-ranking Dingguo Gong!
This is the prince of the Ming Dynasty, how respectful is his status?
Suddenly, an official couldn't help it, and asked out of the ranks:
"May I ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, is there any evidence for this?"
After all, the murder of the former emperor is still the prince of the country, this kind of thing is simply a bit appalling, and many officials can't help but wonder.
The sudden death of the emperor is indeed a little confusing, but at that time, everyone also knew that the old man had already been lying in bed unconscious, and he was carefully maintained by the chamberlain and the imperial doctor, but even so, it was only a matter of time before he was killed, why was he suddenly poisoned?
Besides, what is this Dingguo Gong trying to do?
As a descendant of Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, this feats are divided into two, one is the Duke of Wei, the other is the Duke of Dingguo, it can be said that he is glorious, and he has retired with the country.
Zhu Gaoxian bowed slightly:
"The evidence is clear, and the cabinet will tell you later."
"What I want to say is that although my father was killed by a traitor, his life's achievements cannot be smeared."
"His work in rebuilding rivers and mountains and driving away the Tartars is very admired by Lone."
"After discussing with the scholars in the cabinet, it was decided that the name of the Father's Imperial Temple would be Taizong."
Zhu Gaoxian has the experience of later generations, and naturally knows that Zhu Di's temple number was originally Taizong, but later he was fooled by the guy Jiajing, in order to carry his own Laozi into the Taimiao, he forcibly changed Zhu Di's temple number from Taizong to Chengzu.
The temple number of the ancestor is one size bigger than the Zong, that is to say, after being blindly changed by Jiajing, Zhu Di suddenly changed from the second generation of emperors to Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming Taizu!
If the old man goes down to Huangquan, then Zhu Yuanzhang must not be allowed to hammer his head!
Therefore, Zhu Gaoxian thought about it, and decided to continue the temple number of Taizong for the old man, and set up a rule, future generations, no matter which clan supported the upper position, are not allowed to change the temple number of their predecessors without authorization!
Otherwise, if the future generations come to another bastard like Jiajing, who only cares about the interests of his own small sect and does some big etiquette, wouldn't it make people laugh off their big teeth?
This kind of thing, Zhu Gaoxian couldn't bear it. (End of chapter)
