Chapter 596: King Wu

Chapter 596 Wu Wang

The Kunning Palace has been bustling for quite a while, and the concubines without heirs are here for Empress Ma. Who in this harem would not want to rely on the Empress Empress? With Zhu Biao here, their children will live under the elder brother's hands in the future, and the gains and losses of honor and disgrace are all in one thought.

Outsiders may not know, but how could they not know how much His Majesty’s trust in the Crown Prince is, a confinement is irrelevant, and the Crown Prince cannot leave the East Palace, but the other princes have no chance to see the Emperor during this time, which shows the holy will.

Zhu Biao didn't sit in the top position, but led his younger brothers to sit down. After all, he was married and had children, so it's right to stay away from the concubines. After two cups of tea, the concubines led the princes The princesses took their leave.

The maids and eunuchs tidied up the tea chair and stool cushions neatly, and Zhu Biao was free to sit beside his mother. Empress Ma stroked her son's temples and said, "It looks taller, and seems to be fatter."

Zhu Biao obediently leaned his body over there and said with a smile: "It can be seen that my son has been doing well in recent days, and he has no need for paperwork. Naturally, he has become more relaxed and fatter."

"They are all fathers, and they are not in good shape yet. By the way, is Mrs. Wang and your Nuanyu body still safe?"

"It's safe, the imperial doctor goes to ask for pulse every day to relieve the miscarriage. It is estimated that in autumn and winter you will have grandchildren Cheng Huan."

Empress Ma was delighted when she heard the words. She was exiled in the morning and sent to others, and then married and started a new dynasty with her husband, and now she is trapped among the concubines in the harem. To be honest, it is very boring, but now I just hope to have more grandchildren The grandson accompanied me to relieve boredom.

The court lady and **** brought new refreshments, Zhu Biao glanced at Liu An who stood bowed at the end, but at this time he was no longer as clever as before, and his waist was much bigger than others, and he was very human. I also lost a lot of weight, which shows that I have not had a good life recently.

Zhu Biao waved his hand to let everyone go down to serve him, and then took a piece of Baihua Cake to taste. Empress Ma looked at Liu An's receding figure and said, "This is someone who came out of your palace. Concubine Shu sent him here a while ago. , I just left him behind, will I take him away later?"

Zhu Biao shook his head and said: "He is Liu Jin's godson, and he was quite capable at first, but he relied on the power of his ministers to intervene in the errands of the servants in the harem. He even dared to arrange the slaves who were driven out by Concubine Shu to be sent to Concubine Ning's palace again. .”

Zhu Biao usually dare not interfere in the affairs of the harem, not only because he wants to avoid the private affairs of his father, but also because his mother should be the master of everything in the harem, especially when it comes to concubines.

"After a while, let him learn some rules from his mother's side."

"Speaking of which, they are all young. If you know your mistakes and can correct them, it will be great. Don't be too harsh."

"Yes, my son understands."

"When I came in just now, I heard your brothers arguing about something. The second child and the fifth seem to have talked?"

Zhu Biao naturally wouldn't hide it from his own mother, let alone it was not a big deal, so he told the matter that he was going to let Zhu Wei be in charge of compiling the medical canon in the Imperial Hospital.

Empress Ma still loves the child Zhu Wei, and she is happy for him at first. After all, participating in the compilation of the grand ceremony is a great charity, and the prince can at least get a good name if he participates in it.

But I still have some worries: "Ji'er is smart and eager to learn, but he is still young, so don't miss the main task. As you said, this is an important matter that concerns the people of the world."

Zhu Biao said: "With the imperial physicians here, it is difficult for the famous doctors in ordinary states to participate in it. The prince's visit is just a name, and it will not delay the business. My son thinks that such a good deed that will leave a long history will have a day. It is good for everyone to participate, and at a glance, the fifth child is the most suitable."

"That's good. Your father and emperor should also agree. Xiaowu is a fast learner. A few days ago, the teacher said that he has nothing to teach. He just watched someone study hard. Now he will be released as an errand to practice. I can help you in the future."

Empress Ma sees it clearly. Now that the situation is in danger, there is no need to worry about other princes seizing the heir. It is time to appease the kings, both public and private, and to make good use of their power and power. Sometimes they are far better than courtiers. use.

It can be seen from the fact that King Zhu of Chu rushed to Shanxi to quickly relieve the disaster and calm the people. If the princes are all of one mind with the emperor, then the imperial missions for disaster relief will be completely unnecessary. , but the prince doesn't need to worry too much, cutting the mess quickly is the way to calm the people.

Zhu Biao naturally also thinks the same way. If he is the prince of another dynasty, then at this time, he must use all kinds of insidious means to suppress other princes.

But there is no need for this now. To be honest, if he were to be replaced by other princes now, he would feel desperate. This is not a problem that can be solved by scheming. Death, the only way is to pray to gods and pray to Buddha and count on his sudden death.

During the conversation, there was a sound of footsteps with a relatively fast pace, and then a group of servants bowed down and greeted them. The mother and son stood up to meet each other, and soon a figure walked in with swift and tiger pace.

"Sister, we are almost starving to death, so we hurried over when we heard they were leaving."

Empress Ma scolded: "If they hear this, then the harem will be bustling again, and I will have to clean it up."

"Hahaha, we don't want our family to have a quiet meal. If we come early, they won't leave, and we have to eat with a group of people. Trouble."

The main hall of Kunning Palace is spacious and magnificent, but it is not a place to talk about family affairs. The three of them sat down in the smaller side hall together, and soon the dinner food was served. Four dishes, one soup and a plate of sesame seed cakes, this is the emperor and empress. Prince's dinner.

Old Zhu seemed very happy, and he ate four and a half sheets of sesame seed cakes in a row. You know, ordinary people would be full after eating two. Zhu Biao had just eaten dim sum, but at the age of seventeen or eighteen, he still ate two , Empress Ma only used a bowl of soup and half a cake.

After chatting after dinner, Zhu Biao said: "Lao Wu is not young anymore, why not take advantage of the opportunity of cousin Tie Zhu to become king together?"

Finishing Wang is not a trivial matter, especially when it involves Li Wenzhong, so the Ministry of Rites is still making preparations, and now Zhu Xi is also rushing to go. Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a moment and said, "It's okay, but the land of Wang Hao still needs to be discussed."

Empress Ma told her husband what the mother and son had just talked about. Zhu Yuanzhang has nothing to do. The compilation of the medical canon is enough to benefit the country and the people. It was done, so I didn't intervene.

Zhu Biao is too lazy to take care of it. He has no interest in medicine, and it is a certainty that his name will be left in history with his status. It is a big surprise that Qingshi does not have his name.

To him, this matter is just a small embellishment of merit, because he initiated the preparation, and it is useless to have more reputations for participating in the compilation. It is better to let his younger brother do it.

"Father didn't originally want to bestow the title of the fifth king of Wu. My son thinks it's good, so let's just leave it at that."

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said: "The king's title is nothing, it's just a bit of favor, but the land of Wu is related to the taxation of the court, and it must not be bestowed on the vassal king."

"The fifth child is different from the second child, the third child, and the fourth child. They are not the stuff to lead soldiers to sit in town. My ministers thought it would be better to grant the title of king without actually enforcing the vassal land, and just get the name from afar."

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little entangled and said: "In fact, we are thinking about sending all the princes to the vassal land in the future, and the princes and princes staying in Beijing will easily make them have unreasonable thoughts."

Whether it is better to drive the princes and princes out of the center of political power to raise them, or to keep them under the watchful eyes of the capital, is a matter for the beholder to see.
