The correct way to open the first favorite concubine of Ming Dynasty

After the canonization of the prince, the emperor's admonition did not mean to end at all.

One day, after having a meal together, the emperor gave the crown prince a book, and personally wrote it with his own pen: "There is nothing greater than Zhongzheng in human behavior, and the one who is superior to others... The crown prince is the foundation of the world, and the most important thing for the master... Only neutrality and righteousness are the foundation of virtue... People who keep neutrality in everything will express joy, anger, sorrow, and joy, which is nothing but Tao..." He also specially made a seal of "King of People Zhongzheng" and gave it to him.They chattered endlessly about the word "Tianlun".

What's wrong with black eggs?Where is it against the heavenly relationship?

My husband was eager to protect me, I couldn't stand watching, I was furious, but I couldn't let it go, so I asked Xiaolian to bring taro ball, bird's nest, barley, red bean soup, made a smile on my own face, and personally said to the emperor: "Father is tired of talking." Now, take a mouthful of soup that is neither cold nor hot to moisten your throat."

Although Zhu Gaochi has disliked black eggs since he became the throne, he has no objection to me.He has always liked the food and drinks I made, so he took a few sips of the soup and his face turned pale.

I hurriedly said with a smile: "Father tasted okay? The prince went back to the palace yesterday and told his concubine that his face was not as rosy as before because he was involved in state affairs, and he seemed to have lost weight. He felt very distressed and asked his concubine to get some warmth things to honor my father."

The emperor was weak and afraid of the heat, so he only drank a few sips of soup, and his round and fat face was covered with sweat—he had obviously gained weight since he took the throne, so it was hard for me to open my eyes and tell lies.He hurriedly wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, and said, "This dumpling is chewy, but not too sweet."

I smiled and said, "As long as dad likes it, I will do more when my concubine goes back."

The emperor said: "You have always been filial. As for the prince, you should persuade him more, be filial and benevolent."

After complimenting me, and belittling my husband, can I be happy... I'm so angry, but I still have to keep smiling.I laughed and said, "Although the crown prince occasionally does things inappropriately and makes father unhappy, doesn't father know about his filial piety? My concubine remembers that when the crown prince punished father by kneeling in the Imperial Temple, the masters of the East Palace still Speaking of it, 'Hundreds of goodness and filial piety come first', the most filial and pure, there must be good virtue... Although the prince is quiet and doesn't talk much, he has always set his father as a model in his heart, and he is dedicated to goodness. His concubine has been with him since childhood, know best."

After saying a lot of good things, the emperor looked up at Heidan, and seemed to remember Heidan's filial piety in the old days, and said with a smile: "I also gave you a book and a seal. You don't want to say a few words of thanks, but I want your daughter-in-law to say so many things for you."

Heitan laughed and said, "How can my son say good things about himself and put gold on his face?" The emperor smiled and scolded him "bratty boy", and the father and son had a good time that night.

But the emperor's mind was unstable after all, and it was cloudy and sunny.I can only use similar gentle methods to mediate from time to time, but it can't make him change his mind from now on—as long as he is the emperor one day, and Heidan is the prince one day, maybe Zhu Gaochi will never change his mind.

It's as if Zhu Di didn't let go of his doubts about Zhu Gaochi until he died.

What Zhu Gaochi walked was nothing more than the only way an emperor would have to go.

In November, the emperor decreed to reduce the "young army" specially set up by the late emperor for Heidan.

When the emperor was the crown prince, he didn't have his own bodyguard, but his son, who was the grandson, had a young army. Whoever thought about it would feel uncomfortable.The difference is that when he was the crown prince, the father and son were united to the outside world, so maybe he could not care about it, but now that he is sitting on the dragon chair, his mind is naturally different.

Today's crown prince is already the favorite of all the officials, and he has an army that has been loyal to him for many years. If one day he thinks something wrong, then it's okay?

The rhetoric when cutting the young army's establishment was naturally high-sounding, with good words to comfort the black eggs.In front of the emperor, Heidan also said something touching and decent.

There was really nothing else to say but decent words.

The emperor wants to lay off the soldiers in your hand, how can you say no?If you don't hand over the military power, do you still want to rebel?Although Heidan is young, Xiao Jiujiu has long been familiar with fighting with his emperor's uncle since he was a child, and the routines involving imperial power and military power. Since the emperor has expressed this intention, he is naturally extremely cooperative.

He understands the truth and sees it through, but he is just aggrieved.

The wind and grass in the palace are all in people's ears.On the fourth day of November, Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui was moved upon hearing the news, and took the initiative to submit a petition to resign from the guard bestowed by the late emperor.

It is said that "all clothes and food are given by the imperial court. They sit quietly and have nothing to do but embrace the three guards in vain, and the soldiers of the three guards also receive food in vain."He wanted to hand over the two guards on the left and right of the three guards of Changshan bestowed to him by the late emperor for border defense, leaving only the central guards for dispatch by the palace.

The emperor forbids.

The king of Zhao gave in again and again, but he refused to accept it.The emperor reluctantly agreed, and the imperial edict praised King Zhao: "A good brother is loyal to the country and worries about the country... but brother and brother, like hands and feet, are engraved in the heart, and when will they be forgotten."

When Heidan heard about it, he just smiled: "Uncle Sanhuang has a really good nose." Other than that, he didn't say much.

The emperor's bold strikes not only slashed at his sons and brothers, but even his own father.

Or maybe, the root cause of angering his son and brother is that he was oppressed by his father for too long in his early years.

On November 21, the emperor issued a shocking edict, ordering the Ministry of Rites: Ministers who were loyal to Emperor Jianwen and whose family members were fined and confiscated as slaves after Jing Nan, they will all be pardoned as civilians and given to the land; Only one person was left in the family, and the rest were recalled and distributed to the land as well.

They also sent people to search for Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng, and even Fang Xiaoru's descendants, and pardoned them all.

In front of the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, the emperor sighed: "Many ministers in Jianwen were unfortunately killed...People like Fang Xiaoru are loyal ministers!"

When I heard the news, my jaw almost dropped.

Fang Xiaoru was killed because he refused to write an imperial edict for Zhu Di. If he is a loyal minister, what is Zhu Di?A faint king who killed loyal ministers?Or the "swallow thief" that Fang Xiaoru called to usurp the throne?

The late emperor's coffin is still in the palace and has not yet been buried. Why are you so anxious, Your Majesty?Even if it's two months, it's fine to change to your own year name after the Yongle Year is released.

However, to my surprise, Heidan's mentality is much calmer and more open-minded than mine: "Fang Xiaoru, Qi Tai, and Huang Zicheng are indeed loyal ministers. Each has his own master, and it is the duty of a courtier. What Dad said is right, it can't be wrong. In Dad In his eyes, Grandpa Huang killed innocent people indiscriminately, and if he made a mistake, he should correct it. It's just that he chose the right time, which means he is stepping on Grandpa Huang to make a name for himself."

After finishing speaking, he was silent for a while, and said: "It's good to let the wrong things done during the Yongle period be corrected during the Yongle period."

I originally thought that Heidan would object to defending the emperor because he wanted to defend the emperor, but I forgot that Heidan still agrees with and respects his father on some major issues.

I feel uncomfortable thinking about what it would be like to be suspected by my respected father.

Zhu Gaochi is not a good father, but a good emperor.Just like Zhu Di.

Although he was a bit mean to Heidan after he became the throne, he was very kind to the common people.Since he came to the throne, he has made great efforts to exempt taxes and reduce corvees.

After the new year, in the first year of Hongxi, a certain place was hit by a famine. The Ministry of Households asked to open an official storehouse to lend food to the people. The emperor said generously: "For disaster relief, just distribute it to the people for free. What do you do with the 'loan'?"

The emperor promoted the destruction of the old and the establishment of the new in various fields, while Heidan continued to do his best to help implement the policy as he did when he was the grandson in previous years.Stop the private gold and silver trade, revoke the treasury of the household departments of the two capitals, and order the guards of the capitals of the world to repair the city...

Until one day, the emperor's idea of ​​moving the capital back to Nanjing sprouted.
