The memorial text was easy to write and everything was not difficult. As Zhu Biao returned to his duties, the operation of the court began to accelerate. Both father and son had full ambitions to achieve, but they only suffered from many officials in the court.
Naha Chu of Liaodong also formally led his country to surrender, and Zhu Yuanzhang was conferred the title of Haixi Houte Jin Ronglu Doctor and was awarded the title of Tongzhi of the Metropolitan Governor's Office. From then on, he was officially promoted to a dignitary of the Ming Dynasty.
The title of title is only that of Marquis, mainly because Naha came to submit too late. Many former Yuan officials in Liaodong submitted. Nearly half of Liaodong had already been occupied by the Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, if he led the entire Liaodong to submit, he would at least be a duke.
Liaodong was temporarily controlled by a military system, and Nanxiong Marquis Zhao Yong and Dongping Marquis Han Zheng were dispatched to take over the troops sent by Naha, and took advantage of the situation to sweep away the Jurchen tribes. Anyone who did not obey the instructions would be punished.
Naha led a thousand horses to the capital. In addition to the gold, silver and jewels to be donated, he also brought back to Zhu Biao the heads of the Jurchen Odori tribe's chief mother, Yewuju, who were all old and young.
Meng Ge Timur, the founder of the Qing Dynasty and the former emperor, is among them. The fate of the Jurchen tribe is not yet clear, but the surname Aisin Gioro will not appear again.
In the following months, the Ming Dynasty steadily implemented policies in accordance with the content of the imperial plan, cut off sources of income and opened up income for people to rest and recuperate. On the premise of stabilizing agriculture and mulberry, it promoted commercial development and gradually increased commercial taxes.
More than 10,000 elite troops were transferred back from the northern Xinjiang to the Beijing camp to maintain the vigor of the Beijing camp. Soldiers were then transferred from the Beijing camp and local areas to supplement the frontiers, and generous rewards were given to the generals and soldiers of the frontiers.
The Marquis of Jiangyin, who had been waiting for a long time to board the ship, finally waited for the appropriate ocean currents and monsoons, and led the ocean-going fleet out to sea in a mighty manner, followed by many merchant caravans and even civilian ships.
The chaos in Goryeo worsened. Wang Yu's bloodline was doubtful. His orders were not obeyed in his palace. He heard that there was not enough food for one day, and the royal robes were frayed and exposed. Officials even openly scorned him as a bastard. .
The Goryeo family was preparing to support other clan members, but without exception, they all died suddenly due to various reasons, causing the clan members to evade and even change their surnames.
It is precisely because of this that a recognized bastard with no authority in his hands is still sitting on the throne. The struggle between the nobles is becoming increasingly fierce. Many aristocratic families that have been passed down for hundreds of years have disappeared in a short period of time.
…
In August, Zhu Biao stood a little anxiously outside the dormitory. After all, Wang Rui of Liangdi gave birth prematurely before full term. However, because it had been expected, the imperial doctor Wen Po was already in place.
Basins of hot water were brought in, and basins of blood were brought out. The painful and shrill screams inside could not be heard, but they weakened soon after.
The palace maid inside quickly came out and reported: "Liang Di is too weak and has no strength. The imperial doctor cut open the ginseng, took a piece of medicine and asked Wen Po to feed Liang Di."
Ginseng has the effect of replenishing qi, blood and physical strength, but it is also harmful to pregnant women with hemorrhage. However, it is impossible to cover everything when it comes to saving lives. We can only hope that the imperial doctor will have an idea and can rejuvenate.
After a long time, the imperial doctor who was sweating profusely and looking extremely pale pushed out the door. Zhu Biao's heart sank. No movement could be heard from inside, let alone the sound of the child's first cry.
His steps were a little frail, but he immediately adjusted himself back, and even deliberately added a little more force. No matter what the situation was, it was always expected.
The imperial doctor stepped forward to greet him and bowed: "Liangdi gave birth to the emperor's grandson, but now both mother and child have weak breaths, and Liangdi's body cannot withstand any tonic. The emperor's grandson can still be given to the wet nurse to take herbal medicine, but in the end she still has to It depends on God’s will.”
Zhu Biao's heart was up and down, and he couldn't help but said a little irritably: "God's will, God's will, I have been waiting for God's will for several months, and finally gave birth to a child, how can I still wait for several months of God's will!"
The imperial doctor was about to bow down and said: "I am a humble minister who is incompetent. Please punish me, Your Highness."
Zhu Biao exhaled a turbid breath and stretched out his hand to block the imperial doctor: "I am a little anxious. Imperial Doctor Wang has worked hard these days, and I see it. I can't blame you no matter what."
"I am ashamed of myself."
"Can I go in and take a look?"
"No, Liang Di's dormitory will be sealed tightly from now on. It's best for the emperor and grandson not to see anyone except the wet nurse."
Zhu Biao nodded and turned to leave. The subsequent arrangements were left to the Crown Princess. Soon the news spread throughout the palace and outside the palace. It was obviously a happy event worthy of celebration, but it became taboo. No one dared to speak with the Holy Emperor. I dare not even say congratulations in front of His Highness.
………
In September of the fifth year of Hongwu, Hu Weiyong, the Prime Minister of Zhongshu, led hundreds of officials to report: "Shaohao feels the flowing rainbow, Shang Tangben Xuanniao's fate, Your Majesty's two qi combine with the spirit, the nine dragons bathe in the holy, the night when the stars are gone, the auspicious light room In this dynasty, please allow all ministers and workers in the world to congratulate you on the Longevity Festival.
With the armor order, it was spread all over the world, and the banquet was ordered. On this day, the ministers offered nectar and wine, and the longevity wine was given. The princes and relatives brought gold mirrors and ribbons, and the seven concubines knotted silk to carry the dew bag to ask questions. The village community They celebrate their birthdays with wine and feasts, in order to pray for the holy edict to show the emperor's grace and grant amnesty to the world, to enlighten the heaven above, to enlighten the great sage, to show the emperor's transformation below, and to bring endless prosperity. "
The Crown Prince came forward and said: "In the past, my emperor issued an order that the people of the country were displaced. As a king and father, how can we celebrate peacefully? He ordered that no banquets be held in the palace to celebrate, and ministers were not allowed to enter and offer congratulations. He only lived in a fasting and vegetarian diet to serve the emperor. Study the incense and sit quietly all day long."
"Now that the four seas are united, the people live in peace, and there is joy that Yunnan and Liaodong have returned. I would like to ask my father's favor to grant the invitation of all ministers."
"allow."
…
The emperor was born on the 18th day of the 9th month of the first year of the Tianshun Emperor’s calendar, on the 18th day of the 18th month of the Renxu month, Ding Chou day of the Wuchen year. After more than ten days of preparation, a grand Wanshou Festival was about to begin.
Beginning in the early morning, the Wuying Hall of Fengtian Hall and the Kunning Palace of Wenhua Hall began to play ritual music. First, they played a piece of Linhao called "Feilong Yin", and then played a piece of Taiping called "Fengyunhui". Three pieces of music were played. The title of An Jianye's song is "Qing Huangdu", and the title of the song "Xi Shengping" written by the four musicians is "Xi Sheng Ping".
The title of the fifth piece is "Congratulations to the Holy Dynasty" for peace in Youdu, the sixth piece is a piece for pacifying the four barbarians, it is called "Longchi Banquet", the seventh piece is a piece for a fixed reward, "Nine Chonghuan", the eighth piece is a piece of great unification called "Phoenix Song", and the ninth piece is a piece of music for peace. The song of keeping peace is called "Spring of Ten Thousand Years".
This process went on and on. The emperor first accepted congratulations from his ministers in the Fengtian Hall. Elders and celebrities from various states came out to list them. His Majesty was overjoyed and ordered the Ministry of Rites to repair the table to worship heaven and ancestors. He also ordered Zhongshu to prepare an imperial edict to reduce taxes. Encourage farmers to grow mulberry trees, grant amnesty to the world, and rejoice with the people.
The luncheon was divided into civil and military halls. The Holy Emperor and all the nobles had a banquet in the Wuying Hall, the prince and officials had a banquet in the Wenhua Hall, the generals discussed the glorious past, and the civil servants composed poems and lyrics.
During the banquet, the Queen and the Queen sat in the Kunning Palace to receive greetings from the prince, princess and two young grandsons. The prince presented gifts, mostly handwritten prayer books, and the princess mostly hand-woven embroidered shoes and socks. , the emperor's grandchildren swayed left and right into the arms of the emperor and empress, holding the longevity peach in their arms.
Zhu Yuanzhang was full of joy today, especially after seeing his two healthy grandchildren presenting him birthday peaches. But at this moment, he could not help but think of his grandchildren who were still in the East Palace and whom he had never seen before.
The emperor came closer and smelled the fragrance of the peaches. Chu King Zhu Tie smiled and said: "This longevity peach is presented to you by Yang'er, but it was also picked by my son and second brother personally. My father must eat them all." ."
But Lao Zhu handed the peach in his hand to Zhu Biao aside: "Go and put it in the child's house. It can be regarded as the blessing and longevity that our grandfather has given him."
Zhu Biao was stunned and hurriedly excused himself: "I'm sorry for my father's concern, but my thoughts are enough to take care of you. Shoudao please ask your father to stay."
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said with a smile: "There is no shortage of food today. We will eat one longevity peach with your mother later."
Empress Ma also advised: "Listen to your father. He has called the imperial doctor for consultation every few days, and he will talk about it at night. If the child can really get well, your father will eat well and sleep soundly."
The princes who were watching could not help but feel a little sour in their hearts. If my child got sick in the future, my father would probably not be so concerned about it and would even give him his birthday peach.
Why do you care about your grandson? It's obvious that you love the house and the bird, and you can't bear to let your eldest brother worry about you. It's really partial.
