The daily life of the great grandson of Ming Dynasty

On the ninth day of February, Zhu Zhanji's birthday, Zhu Di directly decreed Zhu Zhanji as the grandson of the emperor in the early court.

This year Zhu Zhanji's birthday was very grand and lively.Zhu Di did this to let people all over the world know that he loves and values ​​Zhu Zhanji.

On this year's birthday, Zhu Zhanji received many gifts, which made him very happy.

After officially becoming the emperor's grandson, Zhu Zhanji's life changed.First of all, there are more teachers who teach him, and secondly, he has to go to court every day.

Although Zhu Zhanji is not yet an adult, he is already a young adult at the age of ten.Zhu Di asked him to go to court so early in the morning to let him know about state affairs earlier.

Zhu Zhanji has no opinion about going to court, but the only thing that makes him dissatisfied is that he wakes up too early in the morning.He gets up at Mao every day to go to the morning court. After the morning court, he still has to study.

After officially becoming the emperor's grandson, Zhu Zhanji became even busier.In addition to going to court and reading and studying, he also had to review memorials.

In order to exercise Zhu Zhanji's ability to handle political affairs, Zhu Di began to ask him to review some memorials.Not only that, Zhu Zhanji was also allowed to participate in some political discussions.

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui were very dissatisfied with Zhu Di letting Zhu Zhanji handle political affairs.They felt that Zhu Zhanji was too young to handle political affairs.They resisted Zhu Di, but Zhu Di ignored it.

In the past few years, Zhu Gaoxu's influence in the court is not small, and he can completely compete with the forces supporting Zhu Gaochi. Even in the past two years, Zhu Gaoxu's arrogance has surpassed Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Di turned a blind eye to some of Zhu Gaochi's actions, which made Zhu Gaoxu even more arrogant.Civil servants suggested to Zhu Di more than once that Zhu Gaoxu should return to the fief, but they were all ignored by Zhu Di.

Seeing Zhu Di pampering him so much, Zhu Gaoxu thought that Zhu Di wanted him to replace Zhu Gaochi, but unexpectedly at this time, Zhu Di suddenly canonized Zhu Zhanji as the grandson of the emperor, which made him puzzled and dissatisfied.

"Third, what do you think is going on with the old man?"

"Second brother, it's nothing for Zhu Zhanji to be canonized as the grandson of the emperor." Zhu Gaosui comforted Zhu Gaoxu, "As long as you become the prince, Zhu Zhanji, the grandson of the emperor, is useless. You don't have to care about Zhu Zhanji."

When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he thought about it.However, "After Zhu Zhanji was canonized as the grandson of the emperor, more people supported the boss. Didn't you notice it?"

"Second brother, supporting elder brother is all civil servants, no matter how many people there are," Zhu Gaosui didn't pay attention to civil servants, "Second brother, you have to be steady, don't become an emperor just because Zhu Zhanji was canonized as the grandson of the emperor. disturbed."

"The old man loves Zhu Zhanji so much..." At this point, Zhu Gaoxu's face suddenly became very ugly.

Zhu Gaosui and Zhu Gaoxu wanted to go together, and his face became very ugly in an instant.

The complexion of Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui became sour because neither of them has a son yet.In addition to Wei An, Zhu Gaoxu gave birth to several sons later, but these sons all died young, and none of them could grow up safely.As for Zhu Gaosui, until now he has no son.Not only did Concubine Zhao not give birth to a son, even the side concubine and other concubines did not give birth to a son.

So far, Zhu Gaosui has given birth to several daughters.Zhu Gaoxu also has several daughters. None of his sons grew up healthy, but his daughters grew up safely.

Over the years, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui tried every means, to be precise, to give birth to a son by any means, but they failed.

Because of this, Zhu Di and Empress Xu also talked about Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui.

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui also want to have a son, but they just can't give birth, what can they do.

Because the two of them could not have a son, there were many bad rumors about them in the court and among the people, saying that they had done a lot of bad things, so God did not allow them to have a son.

Zhu Gaoxu's reputation has long been ruined among the people.Back then, when Webster gave birth to Wei Ping'an, a vision fell from the sky, but it frightened the common people in Nanjing.Although many years have passed since this incident, the common people have not forgotten it.As for Zhu Gaosui, since he became the commander of Jinyiwei, his reputation has been bad.

In the past few years, Jin Yiwei has done a lot of things, and the methods are vicious and cruel, which made the minister

They and the people were terrified.

The common people felt that Zhu Gaosui could not have a son because he had killed too many people and punished him for doing all the bad things.

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui wanted to have a son but couldn't, but Zhu Gaochi gave birth to several sons in recent years.Zhang Mingzhen gave birth to two more sons for Zhu Gaochi, and other concubines also gave birth to several sons for Zhu Gaochi.So far, Zhu Gaochi has seven sons, including Zhu Zhanji.

The common people think that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is kind enough to have many sons and many blessings, and Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui will have no sons after doing all the bad things.

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui felt that the fact that they had no son was too weird. They sought out many masters and Taoist priests in private, and tried many folk remedies, but it was still useless.

Zhu Zhanji felt that Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui had no sons, which probably had something to do with him.He said before that "Second Uncle and Third Uncle have no sons", but he didn't expect that Second Uncle and Third Uncle really had no sons.

"Third brother, is it true that Ji Gang can't be used by us?" Zhu Gaoxu didn't bother to think about having a son, so he changed the subject and talked about serious business.

"Second Brother, if Ji Gang is easy to buy, I would have bought it long ago." Zhu Gaosui shook his head and said, "He belongs to my father, we can't buy him."

"This Ji Gang can't be bought, but he has been in Jinyiwei all the time. This is not a good thing for you and me."

"Second brother, I advise you to stop thinking about dealing with Ji Gang." In fact, in recent years, Zhu Gaosui, the commander of Jinyiwei, has no real power, but Ji Gang has a lot of power in his hands. This is Zhu Di's acquiescence. endure. "He belongs to father. If you touch him, you are fighting against father."

"Father uses Ji Gang so much!" Although Zhu Gaoxu wanted to buy Ji Gang, he didn't like Ji Gang because he saw ambition in Ji Gang's eyes, and the most important thing was that Ji Gang's methods were too vicious.Zhu Gaoxu, who has always been vicious, couldn't stand Ji Gang's insidiousness.

"Ji Gang is my father's eyes, and what he is doing now is what my father ordered him to do." Although Zhu Gaosui is the commander of Jinyiwei, he doesn't know many things in Beizhen Fusi, such as what Ji Gang does. is unclear.Zhu Di personally ordered Ji Gang to do things, and he didn't need to order Ji Gang to do it as a commander. "Second brother, we can't hide from father what we did, but father didn't say anything, which means father acquiesced to what we did, so don't worry."

Zhu Gaoxu frowned tightly and said: "I always feel that this Ji Gang will ruin our affairs in the future."

"As long as father doesn't order Ji Gang to deal with us, Ji Gang won't be against us." Zhu Gaosui is not worried about Ji Gang, "Although Ji Gang is highly valued by father, father will not let Ji Gang climb on top of us."

"I hope." Zhu Gaoxu intuitively felt that Ji Gang was not good.

"My lord..." The eunuch beside Zhu Gaoxuan hurried in, first saluted Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, and then said, "My lord, His Royal Highness has gone to Beizhen Fusi."

"What, Zhu Zhanji went to Beizhen Fusi?" Zhu Gaosui looked shocked, "What did he go to Beizhen Fusi for?"

"The servants don't know, Deputy Commander Ji personally took His Royal Highness to Beizhen Fusi."

Both Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui frowned, and then they went to Beizhen Fusi together.

"Zhanji, why did you come to Beizhen Fusi?"

Zhu Zhanji saluted Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui first, and then said with a smile: "The emperor asked me to come."

"What did your father ask you to come to Beizhen Fusi? Isn't this the place where you, a child, should come?"

"Grandpa Huang asked me to get acquainted with Fusi of Xiabei Town and understand the affairs of Jinyiwei."

Zhu Gaosui looked at Ji Gang, and Ji Gang nodded at him.

"Second Uncle, Third Uncle, Deputy Commander You Ji took me to understand, you don't need to worry about me." Zhu Zhanji said, "Second Uncle, Third Uncle, I will continue to look."

Looking at the back of Zhu Zhanji and Ji Gang leaving together, Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly asked Zhu Gaosui: "Father, what does this mean?"

Zhu Gaosui shook his head blankly: "I don't know either."

"Father asked Zhu Zhanji to go to court again, and asked Zhu Zhanji to review the memorial, and now he asked Zhu Zhanji to learn about Jinyiwei. What exactly is he going to do?"

"Second brother, don't worry, it is impossible for father to let Zhu Zhanji replace me as a commander." However, the arrangement of the father is indeed unpredictable.

For the next few days, Zhu Zhanji would come to Beizhen Fusi every day.He didn't do anything, and didn't ask anything, just came to Beizhen Fusi to read the file, which made Zhu Gaosui and Zhu Gaoxu feel relieved.

In the East Palace, Zhu Zhanji was playing chess with Zhu Gaosui.

"Did you gain anything from going to Beizhen Fusi every day during this time?" Zhu Gaochi asked after falling down.

Zhu Zhanji played with the white chess pieces in his hand, and smiled deeply: "The harvest is great."

"What harvest?"

"Father, it's better not to know."

Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi frowned slightly: "In this case, then I won't ask." Zhu Gaochi knew in his heart that if it wasn't impossible to tell him, his son would definitely tell him. "Your grandpa asked you to go to Beizhen Fusi, what exactly are you doing?"

"Let me know about Jin Yiwei's knife."

"It's that simple?" Zhu Gaoxu didn't quite believe it.

"Father, it's not easy." Zhu Zhanji cast a sideways glance at Zhu Gaochi and said, "Jin Yiwei's knife is not an ordinary knife. If you don't understand it, if you can't control it, this knife will get out of control." The out-of-control Jin Yiwei It's going to be pretty scary.

"Then do you think you can control this knife?"

Zhu Zhanji said confidently: "Of course." Then, he smiled meaningfully, "Father, there are many ways in the Beizhen Fusi, and the third uncle, the commander, has been emptied. Self-knowledge."

Zhu Gaochi had a look of disbelief: "Your third uncle has been excluded, isn't it possible?"

"That's the truth, but the third uncle didn't find out." Zhu Zhanji gloated and said with a gleeful smile, "Ji Gang is the real controller of Jin Yiwei, not the third uncle."

Zhu Gaochi frowned: "What's going on?"

"It's very simple. Grandpa Huang believes in Ji Gang more than Third Uncle." Zhu Zhanji played with the chess pieces in his hand, and said with a half-smile, "Soon, Third Uncle, the commander, will give way."

"Your grandpa asked your third uncle to be the commander of Jinyiwei because your third uncle was his own son. Why doesn't your emperor trust your third uncle now?"

"Father, don't you know what the third uncle is thinking?" Thinking of his third uncle's methods, Zhu Zhanji sneered, "The third uncle thinks he is very smart, thinks that his thoughts can hide from everyone, thinks No one will know what he does, but in fact, his little thoughts and means, the emperor has long known. Let the third uncle be the commander of the Jinyiwei, in fact, let Ji Gang supervise him."

"Your grandpa told you?"

"No, I guessed it myself." Zhu Zhanji said, "Grandpa Huang would not tell me such a simple thing."

Zhu Gaochi: "..." Suddenly felt that he was connoted.

"Father, don't worry about Jin Yiwei." Zhu Zhanji smiled slightly at Zhu Gaochi, "Everything is up to me."

Hearing what his son said, Zhu Gaochi felt relieved and didn't ask about it again.

After playing a game of chess with Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Zhanji played with his younger brothers for a while, then returned to his Hongqing Palace and began to review some memorials sent by Qianqing Palace.

The memorials sent by Zhu Di were not important matters, but trivial matters.Zhu Zhanji handles these small matters very well.

Of course, it's not all small things, there are some important things.Zhu Di asked Zhu Zhanji to deal with it, just to see how he would deal with it.During this period of time, Zhu Di was very satisfied with the memorials reviewed by Zhu Zhanji.

In Zhu Di's eyes, Zhu Zhanji's ability to review memorials is not inferior to his eldest son Zhu Gaochi.
