Chapter 11 When the emperor disowns his relatives


Chapter 11: When the Emperor Disowns All His Relatives

“Dad! Dad! Are you okay?”

Before the body arrives, the voice arrives first.

As soon as Cao Zhengchun put him down outside the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Houzhao hurried into the palace.

Zhu Youtang, who had removed his dragon robe and was sitting by the bed, heard the sound and immediately lay down on the bed, looking like he had a headache.

"Dad, Dad, why do you have a headache?" Zhu Houzhao threw himself on the bed and asked with a worried face.

"Yes." Zhu Youtang opened his eyes with difficulty, hummed softly, and said in a deep voice: "Zhao'er, what did you do when you left the palace today?"

Hearing this At this question, Zhu Houzhao became happy and said proudly: "Dad, when I left the palace today, I did a great thing to eliminate harm for the people."

"Are you okay?" Suddenly, Zhu Youtang sat up angrily.

"Dad, don't you have a headache anymore?" Zhu Houzhao asked curiously.

Zhu Youtang snorted, lay down again, and said solemnly: "It's all because of you."

"Dad, how could I be angry with you? I am the most obedient and filial person." Zhu Houzhao said naturally. Unable to bear the slander and grievance, he immediately shouted loudly.

"What did you do outside the palace? You beat your uncle until he was seriously injured and dying! How could you beat your uncle like this?" Zhu Youtang said angrily.

"I don't have an uncle." Zhu Houzhao's voice was a little louder.

The eunuchs and maids serving in the palace wanted to bury their heads in the ground.

Zhu Youtang became even more angry, "That's nonsense. Why don't you have an uncle? Shouning Hou and Jianchang Uncle are your uncles." Zang became even more angry.

Zhu Youtang just felt a real headache and didn't want to argue with his son on this matter. He couldn't win.

Yang's son is unreasonable at all and doesn't know how to take the overall situation into consideration.

He will still be the one who suffers in the end. He can only wave his hands and say helplessly: "Go back to the East Palace and practice martial arts well."

Zhu Houzhao quit, and said unhappily: "Dad, I did a great job in eliminating harm for the people today. How can you not praise me?"

"I still praise you?" Zhu You Zang Man was speechless.

"Of course, then Jianchang Bo is a bad guy who wants to rob people's girls, but I got rid of the harm for the people." Zhu Houzhao said matter-of-factly and quite proudly.

"Jian Changbo is your mother's step-brother, an earl and nobleman of the imperial court.

You almost beat her to death before you tried to rob a common girl. Zhao'er, what do you think? Is this the right thing to do?" Zhu Youtang suppressed his anger and said earnestly, and he didn't even mention the word uncle.

"I don't care who his brother is or what his title is.

When you are an emperor, you should love the people as sons. The people of the Ming Dynasty are all your sons and daughters, that is, my brothers and sisters.

Who? If you dare to bully them, I will beat him to death," Zhu Houzhao said loudly with his hands on his hips.

Looking at his lawless son, Zhu Youtang was startled.

He suddenly realized deeply that he was willing to die for his stubborn son.

If things continue like this, when his son ascends the throne, the Ming Dynasty will really be as lively as Zheng Gong said.

No, it’s going to be earth-shaking.

I am afraid that his mental preparation is not enough.

The preparations made are also not enough.

"Dad, I understand, do you want to protect the bad guy because he is your brother-in-law?" Zhu Houzhao seemed to have realized something, and looked at his father with doubt on his face.

Zhu Youtang coughed twice, a little embarrassed, and said seriously: "Of course my father will not protect anyone?"

"I don't believe it, you just want to protect him.

Hmph, Dad, when you are an emperor, you have to disown your relatives and be selfless.

How can you protect him just because he is your brother-in-law?" Zhu Houzhao said seriously.

"Zhao'er, who taught you this if you don't recognize your relatives?" Zhu Youtang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Do you need teaching? I'm born with it. It's not difficult at all to be an emperor." Zhu Houzhao became proud again.

Zhu Youtang smiled bitterly, shook his head, and touched his son's head.

My silly son, how could it be so easy?

"Okay, okay, let's go back to the East Palace and practice martial arts." Zhu Youtang didn't want to say anything more, so he quickly coaxed his son away, or the queen should come.

We can't let them meet now.

"Dad, you don't have a headache anymore? Are you okay?" Zhu Houzhao asked with concern.

"Father is fine, go back." Zhu Youtang felt a warm current in his heart and said gently.

"Oh, but dad, you can't protect that bad guy, you have to punish him." Zhu Houzhao said worriedly.

"Yeah, let's go back quickly." Zhu Youtang said vaguely.

Zhu Houzhao felt that his father was fine, so he agreed and returned to the East Palace happily.

I have less time to practice martial arts today, so I have to make up for it.

Just when Zhu Houzhao happily returned to the East Palace, there was already a solemn atmosphere in Qianqing Palace, as well as some imperial offices and ministers' homes.

Inside the Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Youtang was lying with a splitting headache.

In front of the dragon bed, Queen Zhang was kneeling with red and swollen eyes and a miserable expression.

"Queen, what are you doing? Get up quickly." Zhu Youtang said weakly.

"Your Majesty, please grant me the death of my concubine." Queen Zhang said with tears again.

"What did the queen say?" Zhu Youtang became even more helpless and asked quickly.

“My concubine failed to teach her son well, so the prince almost beat his own uncle to death in the street.

Where is the law of heaven?

Everything is my concubine's fault. I'm sorry for your majesty, I'm sorry for the prince, I'm sorry for my deceased father and dying brother, and I'm even more sorry for the Ming Dynasty.

Your Majesty also asks me to grant my concubine death. I am no longer alive. "Empress Zhang Dujuan cried like blood.

Zhu Youtang sighed deeply in his heart. He was a little angry that the queen forced him to deal with Zhao'er, but he understood it very well.

At the same time, he was a little angry. He looked at his wife with distress and said softly: "Queen, this is not your fault. Jianchang Bo will be fine.

Prince, Prince, he did indeed do something wrong, I will definitely reprimand him. "

"Your Majesty, let me give you my concubine. "Empress Zhang looked at Zhu Youtang forcefully, "If the prince dares to do it the first time, he will definitely dare to do it the second time. How can I, my concubine, still have the dignity to live? "

"I will definitely teach the prince a lesson so that he will not dare to do it again. " Zhu Youtang assured.

"Oh, Your Majesty, who in this palace doesn't know? The prince is lawless and acts recklessly. He often doesn't even listen to your Majesty.

Your Majesty, are your lessons useful? "Queen Zhang said with an increasingly tough tone.

Zhu Youtang blushed, but was speechless for a moment.

Silent for a few breaths, he sighed and said: "Queen, what do you want?"

"Let the prince apologize to my concubine's brother. Yanling has been greatly wronged this time and should be promoted. .

Liu Jin and Cao Zhengchun did not think highly of the prince, and even tempted him to beat his uncle. They should be executed.

In addition, the prince must be taught." Empress Zhang suppressed the anger in her heart. vocal channel.

Zhu Youtang closed his eyes and just wanted to faint now.

····

The Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Min Gui, the censor of Zuodu, looked heavy.

After listening to the report.

He stood up as soon as he slapped the table.

“Absurd, simply absurd.

The crown prince beat his uncle in the street until he was on the verge of death.

Since the Ming Dynasty, has such a ridiculous thing happened?

I want to report to Your Majesty immediately, go and ask for an audience with Your Majesty.”

"Yes, let's go and see His Majesty. How can the Crown Prince be so ridiculous?"

"Let's go, let's go."

····

Many others Government offices and official residences.

“Jianchang Bo raped civilian girls in the street, and the crown prince beat his own uncle, almost to death!

I am going to see Your Majesty. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so absurd and stubborn that he must be taught a lesson. "

"Quickly, prepare your court uniform. I want to enter the palace to see His Majesty. "

"The crown prince is only five or six years old, how could he beat his own uncle to the point of death? There must be an eunuch who is causing trouble. Go and see your majesty and eradicate the eunuch. ”

...

Everyone's eyes became wary and they watched quietly without making any big moves for the time being.

But many of them were truly curious about the young Crown Prince for the first time.

He was less than six years old and actually beat an adult to the point of danger with his own hands on the street. He was also his own uncle.

This Crown Prince is obviously unusual.

How did he do it?

····

Cabinet.

There was no prime minister in the Ming Dynasty. Since the Hongzhi period, the power of the cabinet has grown day by day, and it has gradually become a new leader of hundreds of officials.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the cabinet is already in a relatively relaxed state.

But at this time, the anger was extremely solemn.

The first assistant Xu Pu, the second assistant Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, and Xie Qian had serious expressions on their faces.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can't go on like this. He beats his uncles and relatives to death with his own hands in the street. This has never happened before." Liu Jian glanced at Xu Pu, spoke in a deep voice, and broke Quiet.

"Yes, we have suggested to His Majesty before that His Majesty should leave the cabinet to study, but Your Majesty rejected it.

This time, we must make His Majesty agree to teach the Prince well." Li Dongyang nodded. road.

"His Royal Highness is less than six years old and is so naughty. If he is not taught well, it will be too late. He should go to see His Majesty immediately." Xie Qian agreed.

The three of them looked at the chief assistant Xu Pu again.

Xu Pu is sixty-nine years old, but his body is still strong.

Facing the gazes of the three people, he said in a deep voice: "The prince was less than six years old, and he brutally wanted to beat his uncle to death.

It is not just a matter of character education, it is an urgent matter. .

The prince must have practiced martial arts.

It was martial arts training that made the prince so naughty and even cruel.

Your Majesty should be informed not to allow the prince to continue practicing martial arts, so as not to endanger the Ming Dynasty.

The eunuchs around the prince must have instigated him and should be removed. "

Liu Jian and the others frowned a little more tightly. They were silent for a moment, and then nodded in agreement.

"Now that we have reached an agreement, let's go to see His Majesty together. "Xu Pu said solemnly.

"Together now?" Liu Jian hesitated.

You don’t need to think about it at this time to know that the censors and many officials are on their way to see His Majesty.

If they are together again, they will force His Majesty.

"We have all heard that His Majesty dotes on the Crown Prince. If we don't work together, Your Majesty may not agree." Xu Pu said firmly.

The other three thought for a moment and nodded again.

Your Majesty's doting on the prince has been heard throughout the court. It may not be easy for your Majesty to agree to these three points.

That’s all.
