Time Travel: After Seizing the Throne, I Lead the Ming Dynasty to Take Off

After saying this, he bowed and said goodbye. The eunuch outside also walked in slowly: "Your Majesty, the Minister of Rites requests to see you."

"Minister of Rites..." Zhu Yunhuan frowned.

Although the Ministry of Rites had a high status among the six ministries, it was a pity that it encountered Zhu Yunhuan, who disregarded etiquette and laws. Ren Hengtai, the Minister of Rites, rarely spoke in the court. The other five ministries had to give him some advice on various "absurd" operations he had made before, but for some reason, the Ministry of Rites always stayed out of it and kept silent.

So Zhu Yunhuan was not very familiar with him.

However, Zhu Yunhuan still gave the order and agreed to the request: "Let him in."

Although he disregarded etiquette and laws.

However, he knew that in this era, sometimes he had to adapt to these pretentious and complicated things.

Soon, Ren Hengtai walked in closely.

"I am Ren Hengtai, your humble servant, and I am here to pay my respects to Your Majesty." Ren Hengtai said solemnly.

Zhu Yunhuan didn’t know if it was his illusion, but he always felt... every time he saw Ren Hengtai, he always had a weird feeling.

Ren Hengtai swallowed nervously.

How can I not blame you?

He knew the late emperor... Ugh, the retired emperor? Ugh!... He was so dang unsure about what to call Zhu Yuanzhang now.

The emperor's funeral was organized by the Ministry of Rites. Zhu Yuanzhang was able to carry on with this drama that had gone wrong due to a series of coincidences, but it was not without his help.

"What's the matter?" Zhu Yunhuan said lightly. Although his sixth sense felt a little strange, he did not have any substantial evidence or clues, so he put aside the strange feeling in his heart.

"Your Majesty."

"It's only a couple of days until New Year's Eve. In early August of this year, the late... the late emperor suddenly passed away. The entire nation mourned. Fortunately, Your Majesty took the throne and ascended the throne. The old is replaced by the new, and the new year should be marked by a new era."

"According to the regulations of the Ministry of Rites, on the first day of next year's Lunar New Year, Your Majesty should offer sacrifices to Heaven and report to the ancestors. You should also issue an imperial decree to change the reign title to the first year of Kaiqian."

"I have prepared all the other necessary procedures and etiquette, but I have yet to receive your Majesty's order, and I am filled with anxiety."

Ren Hengtai honestly stated his purpose.

"Uh..." This made Zhu Yunhuan slightly stunned, and then he smiled awkwardly: "I forgot."

He never took the so-called etiquette seriously, and he had a lot of things to think about, so he really forgot about it. However, he was the emperor, the supreme ruler, and there was no need to explain anything, so he just said what he thought.

The words "concise and to the point" confused Ren Hengtai again, and he pulled the corner of his mouth helplessly.

He was really speechless.

Changing the reign title is such a big deal, how could anyone forget it?

Although he complained in his heart, he did not dare to say a word. Instead, he immediately found a high-sounding excuse for Zhu Yunhuan: "Your Majesty is busy with all kinds of affairs every day, worrying about the affairs of the Ming Dynasty. His heart only has the Ming Dynasty and the people of the world. He has even forgotten himself. He is truly a role model for the world!"

He certainly knows best which way the wind is blowing.

Even though even the Huaixi nobles are ready to make a move, he knows that even if the young emperor in front of him cannot handle this complicated situation, there are still people behind him to support him!

Moreover, for such a long time, that person has not expressed anything, which can only mean one thing: that person has completely recognized the current Majesty!

Now is the right time to lick it.

There is no loss at all.

Zhu Yunhuan naturally had no idea that this guy had so many tricks in his mind. He thought that this Minister of Rites was useless in most cases, but he was better than anyone else when it came to debating scriptures.

He chuckled nonchalantly.

Turning to look at Ma Sanbao beside him, he said, "It's a simple matter of an imperial edict. Sanbao, just ask those secretaries...er, no, the Grand Secretaries to draft one."
