"Then it's settled!"
Zhu Yuanzhang shouted: "People from the Ministry of Rites, get ready for us. On New Year's Day, we will confer the title of grandson of the emperor on New Year's Day and give him a gold book. You can make up your own mind about etiquette."
He did not confer the title immediately, but waited until the New Year's Day to celebrate with all the people in the world.
At that time, it will be the three-year period, the final deadline.
Although he has not been canonized yet, with Zhu Xuan's current status, he has already been almost the same as the emperor's grandson, and the canonization is just in the name of it.
"My lord, take your orders!"
Chen Di, the Minister of Rites, stepped forward and said.
"Grandson, thank you very much, Grandpa Huang!"
Zhu Xuan got up, knelt down in front of Lao Zhu, and kowtowed.
The matter of the emperor's grandson was thus settled, and the officials in the court no longer had any objections and did not dare to raise any objections.
Zhu Yuanzhang asked Zhu Xuan to get up first, and then said: "Okay, is there anything else to start with?"
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
The minister of the Ministry of Industry was still Zheng Ci. He said loudly: "His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun mentioned before that chemical factories should be established to manufacture fertilizers in various parts of the Ming Dynasty. Our Ministry of Industry has already led people to implement it, but we have encountered some small obstacles... …”
Small obstacles are all small problems.
They settled it on the spot in the court.
Zhu Xuan sat on a chair nearby and watched the emperor and the ministers go to court. He worked hard to record it, because in the next time, he would have to do the same things as he did in the court.
There are also a lot of government affairs to deal with.
Zhan Shifu has not been officially established yet, but Zhu Xuan knows that it will be a matter of time before his small court is established.
While there is still a chance now, he should spend more time with Grandpa Huang to learn what he can do.
Zhu Yuanzhang was also willing to teach Zhu Xuan. He didn't even want to be happy that his darling grandson was going to govern the country.
The meeting ended soon.
Zhu Xuan left the main hall and went to the main hall to continue his studies today.
"His Royal Highness the Emperor's Grandson!"
Kong Gongjian's name for Zhu Xuan was different at this time. He should change it appropriately at the appropriate time. Not only him, but all the ministers in the court did the same. He added: "What your Highness wants to learn today is the study of emperors. I won't do it for the time being." To teach His Highness, it is better to go to Mr. Fang to study "Zi Zhi Tong Jian"."
Zhu Xuan said: "Thank you for your hard work, Duke Yansheng."
"It's not hard work!"
Why does Kong Gongjian feel so hard?
To teach the next emperor of the Ming Dynasty and to become an emperor's master, others did not have the qualifications to do so. He believed that only he could be so valued.
"In the future, I will definitely repay His Highness well!"
Kong Gongjian was thinking about it again.
Zhu Xuan spread out "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" and read it for a while, then Fang Xiaoru came in.
"Congratulations to His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince!"
Fang Xiaoru smiled.
Zhu Xuan shook his head and said: "Mr. Fang, you're welcome. I'm finally going to sit in this position. Mr. Fang should know that the higher the position, the greater the ability and the greater the responsibility. In the future, I will rely entirely on Mr. Fang."
Fang Xiaoru said: "I am just a scholar. Your Highness said that you have to rely on me, which is a bit flattering to me."
Zhu Xuan smiled and said: "Sir, you deserve this!"
Fang Xiaoru is a stubborn and stubborn person, but at the same time, he is also a person with integrity.
Now Zhan Shifu has not yet been determined, but when Grandpa Huang has made all preparations, Zhu Xuan boldly guessed that Fang Xiaoru must be from Zhan Shifu.
Fang Xiaoru, as well as Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng, a pair of sleeping dragons and phoenixes, were the talents left to Zhu Yunwen by the emperor's grandfather to assist Zhu Yunwen in governing the country.
Zhu Xuan thought that Grandpa Huang would also leave them to him.
Speaking of Wolong and Phoenix, Zhu Xuan found that he hadn't had an in-depth conversation with them for a while.
However, Zhu Xuan didn't want to talk to them too much. As for the pair of sleeping dragons and phoenix chicks, he just wanted them to perform freely and do their job well. The rest was not important.
But during the lunch break, Zhu Xuan finally saw the Crouching Dragon and Phoenix chick arriving at this time.
"Greetings to Your Highness!"
Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng said in unison.
Zhu Xuan was still thinking about it just now and did not have an in-depth conversation with them.
The opportunity to not talk has come!
They came to congratulate Zhu Xuan and say a few words of flattery and praise to please Zhu Xuan. They had already publicly stated that they were Zhu Xuan's people.
Zhu Xuan had no choice but to be polite to them.
After sending them away, Xie Jin, Yang Shiqi and San Yang also came.
The four of them were all promoted by Zhu Xuan, and now they have to congratulate Zhu Xuan on successfully becoming the emperor's grandson.
After these four people also left, Li Jinglong came to the base camp.
During lunch break, Zhu Xuan met with many ministers.
Those ministers, regardless of their previous relationship with Zhu Xuan, could not help but come over to Zhu Xuan to brush their faces to ensure their presence, hoping to be taken seriously in the future.
Zhu Xuan had no choice but to meet them all, but he couldn't get any rest during the entire lunch break, and he almost couldn't even eat. In the end, the food was cold.
"Being the grandson of the emperor is not particularly good." Zhu Xuan said to himself.
After hearing this, Fang Xiaoru said with a smile: "Power is great when it is used! Your Highness will be able to realize it in the future."
Power is definitely a good thing, but how to use it depends on whether the person in power can hold it.
——
The fact that Zhu Yuanzhang agreed to Zhu Xuan becoming the grandson of the emperor quickly spread throughout the specific circles of the capital. Three years have passed, and it has been fifteen years since Prince Jingyi died. It has been nearly sixteen years now. Your Majesty has finally decided who will be the next emperor. Candidate.
There were still many shocked people in the court hall and inside and outside the palace.
However, Zhu Xuan became the emperor's grandson, which did not surprise many people.
If Zhu Xuan is not qualified, then no one in the Ming Dynasty royal family is qualified to be the emperor's grandson. This seems to be the consensus of many people.
The princes and grandsons returned to Beijing to wish Lao Zhu a happy birthday, but they are not going back so soon for the time being.
As long as Lao Zhu doesn't drive people away, they won't want to go back.
Now that the border is calm and there is no war, not only the other imperial uncles, but also the King of Sai have much less work at the border. It is not a big problem not to go back for the time being.
Zhu Xi did not go back immediately and continued to stay in Yingtian. Today I heard that Zhu Xuan was established as the emperor's grandson. In the New Year, he will be given a gold book to formally enshrine him. Everything is settled.
He can't change anything.
However, he was still unwilling to give in.
When the eldest brother was here, Lao Zhu only had two sons, Zhu Biao and other sons. Now that the eldest brother is dead, these other sons still don't get attention.
What the father wants to establish is the eldest brother’s son.
Zhu Xi found Zhu Di first and said helplessly: "Xiao Yunxuan has become the grandson of the emperor. What does fourth brother think?"
Zhu Di took a sip of wine, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "How can I see it? Of course I want to congratulate our little nephew."
Zhu Xi asked again: "Does Fourth Brother sincerely bless you?"
Of course not sincerely.
Zhu Di was also very unwilling.
He believes that the next emperor of the Ming Dynasty is more qualified than himself and no one else.
However, Zhu Xuan could really press him to the ground and rub him.
He has the ability to crush all the princes, and none of those princes can beat him.
