Ming Dynasty: 100-year-old Heavenly Master, Zhu Yuanzhang’s biological father

Spring Harmony Palace.

Queen Lu Xiaowan’s palace was originally supposed to be in Kunning Palace, but the Queen Mother was in Kunning Palace, so she could only stay in Chunhe Palace.

As soon as Zhu Biao entered the palace, he saw Lu Xiaowan vomiting there.

“vomit… vomit……”Lu Xiaowan covered her chest with her hands and looked ugly.

The palace maid stood aside and handed her tea, her face full of worry:”Your Majesty, please ask the imperial doctor to come and take a look.”

“No, it’s just a minor problem. Lu

Xiaowan shook her head. Just as she was holding back, she started to vomit again,”Go and get a towel.”

Zhu Biao came over hurriedly and waved:”Quick, go and invite the imperial doctor.”

Lu Xiaowan smiled gently:”Your Majesty, if you have a minor problem, there is no need to alarm the imperial doctor.””

“How does this work?”Zhu Biao supported her.

After receiving the emperor’s order, the palace maid immediately went to ask for the imperial doctor.

Not long after, the imperial doctor came.

After diagnosing the pulse, the imperial doctor stood up suddenly and bowed to Zhu Biao with a look of joy:”Your Majesty, congratulations. Ah, my dear, she is happy”

“Are you happy?”Zhu Biao was surprised

“Yes, it has been more than a month.”The imperial physician���，”Next, you have to be careful about the miscarriage. I’ll give you a prescription.”

“well. Zhu Biao was overjoyed.

After the imperial doctor left, he quickly came to Lu Xiaowan and said happily:”Queen, you are happy.””

Lu Xiaowan also heard it just now, and a smile like a spring flower immediately bloomed on her face. It was a kind of joy that surged from the bottom of her heart, making her eyes sparkle.

Two shallow smiles appeared on her fair cheeks. Her dimples seemed to be hiding a sweet secret, and her face was full of happiness and expectation.

Her hands gently touched her belly, as if she could feel the beating of that little life, which was the new life she was about to usher in. Her hope for the future.

Her eyes were full of longing for the future, as if she had already seen the beautiful future and the happy life of herself and her children.

Zhu Biao should be happy and immediately find an experienced nanny to take care of her. Queen

……

The queen was happy, and soon everyone in the government and the public knew about it.

This is naturally a happy event for the Ming Dynasty, but there have also been subtle changes.

If the queen gives birth to a son, he will be the legitimate son, which will affect the future affairs of the court.

Of course, it won’t show up yet.

However, the queen’s father, Lu Qiantang, was promoted and was already the head of the household department, and also served as the bachelor of Wenhua Palace.

Since the Queen’s wedding, the Lu Mansion in Lu Qiantang has become lively.

Many officials from the six departments of the imperial court came to see him, but most of them were from poor families.

Even Xia Yuanji, the Minister of Household Affairs, came to visit him.

Xia Yuanji looked at the tall gatehouse, with a shining golden plaque hanging on the lintel. The stone lion in front of the door is majestic and majestic.

Entering the door, a spacious courtyard unfolds in front of you. Various precious flowers, plants and trees are planted in the courtyard, which are fragrant and fragrant.

The petals flutter in the wind, like colorful butterflies dancing. In the corner of the courtyard, there is a small rockery pond with crystal clear water and fish swimming freely in the water.

The architectural style of the house is elegant and solemn, with red walls, green tiles, and cornices. Every detail has been carefully designed and polished.

The hall is furnished with exquisite furniture and antiques

“Master Xia. Lu Qiantang went out to greet him personally,”Coming to the humble abode will make the humble abode glow.””

“Mr. Lu, you’re welcome.”Xia Yuanji clasped his fists.

Lu Qiantang took Xia Yuanji to his seat, and a maid came up to serve tea.

He poured tea for Xia Yuanji himself:”Master Xia, you promoted me in Fujian back then, and I will remember it in my heart.”

“I was trying to recruit talents for the country.

Xia Yuanji slowly sipped his tea, his eyes clear,”Master Lu, you are where you are today because of your own ability.”

Lu Qiantang bowed quickly, with a respectful look on his face:”Master Xia, you…you can be regarded as my mentor. Without you, I would still be in a mountain village in Fujian.””

“Okay, okay, since you said that, I have a few words to tell you. Xia Yuanji frowned.

He continued to drink a cup of tea, pondered for a while and said:

“The ups and downs of officialdom are not our original intention. A prosperous capital city is not our ultimate pursuit. You should keep your original intention in mind and never forget your duty, so that you can remain invincible in the turbulent times.”

“The road to officialdom is not a smooth road. You should act cautiously, treat others with humility, do not trust others’ words easily, and do not be arrogant. It should be noted that although Quan (babf)’s plan can gain power temporarily, it is not a long-term solution. Only by persuading others with virtue and treating others with sincerity can we gain a foothold in the officialdom”

“You should study hard and work hard every day to prepare for emergencies. In the prosperous place of the capital, there are many talented people and beautiful women, so you should learn from others with an open mind and learn from each other’s strengths. Don’t be carried away by temporary gains and losses, and don’t be discouraged by temporary difficulties.”

“I hope you can keep in mind the teachings and never forget your original intention, so that you can brave the waves and set sail in the sea of officialdom.”

He acted like a gentleman.

However, Lu Qiantang was still very respectful and not unhappy at all.

……

The autumn air is crisp and the sky is high and the clouds are light.

The autumn sunshine shines on the body, which is warm but not hot, making people feel more comfortable. The leaves of the trees on both sides of the street have turned from green to golden, swaying gently in the autumn wind.

At the gate of the city, officials from the Ministry of Rites gathered. Today they came to welcome Lan Yu, the general who conquered the west.

Lan Yu returned to the court today, and he came back to report.

Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves came

“Here comes the general.”

I saw a group of people galloping forward on horseback in the distance, the autumn wind was blowing, and the dust was flying.

Lan Yu rode his horse to the city gate, but ignored the officials greeted by the Ministry of Rites, and rode directly past and entered the city.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites They looked at each other at a loss. Their carefully prepared welcoming ceremony seemed so insignificant under Lan Yu’s arrogant disregard. He was like a strong wind, sweeping through the capital, and no one could stop it.

This matter quickly reached the ears of Emperor Zhu Biao. , he was furious:”Presumptuous!”

He called Lan Yu back this time to make him the Duke of the country, because Lan Yu made great achievements in the Western Expedition.

Earlier, good news came frequently, and Zhu Biao said in front of the ministers of civil and military affairs that he would make Lan Yu the Duke of the country.

“Your Majesty, calm down.”Yang Shiqi, a scholar of Wenhua Palace, said,”Lanyu is arrogant and lawless, but it is not convenient to go into details at this time. However, Lan Yu still has to be punished.”

“How to punish? Cut off his title? Don’t forget, I personally sealed his prince’s name in front of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs.”Zhu Biao frowned

“Your Majesty, the one you gave him is Liang Guogong.”Yang Shiqi said,”I think that I can still give him the title of Duke, but I can change the name, and change the name of Duke Liang to Duke of Liang.”

“oh? Zhu Biao’s eyes lit up,”Forget it, ask the Ministry of Rites to handle it.””

According to the title system of the Ming Dynasty, the Duke of the State is the most prominent. The title of Duke of the State in Lanyu Jin Dynasty can be said to be the most respected minister.

However, the Duke of the State is also different.

Generally speaking, the Duke of the State is mainly based on the country during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. To name them, the stronger the country, the more noble the titles.

The four kingdoms of Qin, Jin, Chu, and Qi were the most powerful, but these titles were definitely given to clan vassals.

Following the four great kingdoms were the Wancheng principalities such as Han, Wei, and Zhao..After these countries of thousands of vehicles, there are also the countries of thousands of vehicles, such as Song, Wei, and Zheng. After the country of thousands of vehicles, there is also the country of

Hu. The Liang Kingdom is a country of barbarians. Although they are only one word different, their status is completely different. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

……

Blue Mansion.

The eunuch came with his guards to deliver the order:

“In accordance with the destiny of heaven, the emperor issued an edict that General Yongchang Hou Lanyu, the general of the Western Conquest, was granted the title of assistant to the founder of the country. The food and salary are three thousand dan, and the descendants are hereditary. If there are no heirs, it would be great if the concubine and his elders reach him.”

Lan Yu listened, and there was a flash of unwillingness in his eyes, but he still bowed heavily:”Your Majesty, Lan Yu, thank you for your kindness.”[]

After seeing off the eunuch, Lan Yu returned to the lobby.

A group of Huaixi military generals were already waiting for him in the lobby. Cao Zhen, the Marquis of Jingchuan, Zhang Yi, the Marquis of Heshou, Zhu Shou, the Marquis of Shunshang, Wang Bi, the Marquis of Dingyuan, and He Rong, the governor of the East, all arrived.

“Congratulations to the Duke.”Everyone bowed together

“Haha, Duke Liang, hum.” Lan Yu snorted.

“General, don’t be angry. His Majesty is angry for a moment and will change his mind later.”Wang Bi said,”Your Majesty has great trust in you, General. He loves you deeply and bears deep responsibility.”

“Say no more, drink.” Lan Yu waved.

He led everyone to sit down and started drinking.

After three glasses of wine, Dingyuan Marquis Wang Bi said:”General, you came back in time this time. I have news to tell you that the Queen is happy.”

“What?”Lanyu was shocked

“Absolutely true.”Jingchuan Hou Cao Zhen said,”Recently some officials in the court have gone to burn the hot stove in Lu Qiantang.”

“General, there is something you need to do.”Heshou Hou Zhang Yi said,”The position of the eldest son of the emperor must be determined.”

Lan Yu frowned deeply.

Although he is proud of himself, he is not a fool.

Establishing a crown prince is not something he can discuss casually.

“This is all considered in the long run. Lan Yu frowned,”Of course we hope that the eldest son of the emperor will be the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty.””

“That is, they are all from my own family.”Wang Bi, the Marquis of Dingyuan, said.

Lan Yu is the uncle of the emperor’s eldest son. With this relationship, all the generals in Huaixi must support Zhu Xiongying.

……

Spring Harmony Palace.

Lu Qiantang came to see his daughter

“I pay my respects to the Queen.”He bowed.

Lu Xiaowan waved the maids and eunuchs to go down, then helped Lu Qiantang up,”Dad, why are you so polite?”

“You are the queen now, and this is how it should be.”

Lv Qiantang stood upright. He abided by the courtier’s etiquette and said,”Your Majesty, why are you in such a hurry to summon your ministers to the palace?”

“Father.”Lu Xiaowan sighed softly and frowned,”Our Lu family may be in disaster.”

“What? Lu Qiantang was shocked,”How could that be?” The emperor wants to destroy you?”

“No, the emperor is very kind to me.”Lu Xiaowan touched her belly,”The key is that this child”

“What happened to the child? He was born a prince.”Lu Qiantang was confused.

“Father, do you know the former crown prince’s concubine Lu, right?”Lv Xiaowan asked

“of course I know.”Lu Qiantang nodded.

The Lu family was given three feet of white silk, and the entire Lu family was executed. The whole city knew about this.

Lu Xiaowan sighed quietly:”Father, the birth of my child may affect the court situation. It’s not up to us.”

Lu Qiantang understood it at once.

Recently, some officials from the DPRK ran to Lu Mansion, and he had suspicions in his mind.

“How can we, ordinary people, be rivals of others?”Lu Xiaowan said in a deep voice,”So, father, you need to do one thing, which is to petition the emperor to make the emperor’s eldest son Zhu Xiongying the crown prince.”

Lu Qiantang was shocked both physically and mentally.

At this moment, he even had chills running down his spine.

“That’s right, the former Minister of Civil Affairs and the Crown Prince’s concubine Lu are no match, let alone us? Lu Qiantang nodded repeatedly,”Yes, I have to take the initiative to play.””

He looked at his daughter and nodded.

With a daughter like this in the palace, he would feel relieved.

……

The next day, a piece of news shocked both the government and the public.

The empress’s father, Lu Qiantang, a scholar at Wenhua Palace, who was also the Minister of Household Affairs, petitioned the emperor to designate Zhu Xiongying, the eldest son of the emperor, as the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty to consolidate the country’s foundation.

The emperor accepted Lu Qiantang’s advice and decreed that Zhu Xiongying be made the crown prince.

On that day, Zhu Xiongying entered the East Palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang also formed the East Palace team for Zhu Xiongying.

The Duke of Wei, Xu Da, was also the Prince’s Young Master; the Duke of Xin, Tang He, was also the Prince’s Young Master; the Duke of Liang, Lan Yu, was also the Prince’s Shaobao; the Marquis of Jingchuan, Cao Zhen, the Marquis of Heshou, Zhang Yi, and the Marquis of Shushou, Zhu Shou, were ministers of the East Palace Zhan Council; and Dingyuan Marquis, Wang Bi , Dong Guanbo He Rong was the deputy minister of the East Palace, and there was also a bachelor of Wenhua Palace who was an official of the East Palace.

This situation is the same as when Zhu Biao appointed the crown prince himself. It is obvious that he wants to tell everyone that the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty can only be Zhu Xiongying, and those who have ulterior motives should not bother.

After Zhu Xiongying took charge of the East Palace, the first person he met was neither Xu Da nor Tang He, but Lu Qiantang, the head of the household department, and he appointed Lu Qiantang as the right officer of the East Palace.���The big one praised Lu Qiantang.

Lu Qiantang knows the general picture.

These were Zhu Yuanzhang’s original words. He recognized his in-laws very much. Unlike before, Lu Ben was respectful on the surface but actually had so many twists and turns.

He also admired Zhu Biao’s queen, Lu Xiaowan:”Biao’er, as a daughter-in-law, you know the general situation. Don’t treat me badly in the future.”

Zhu Biao nodded and thanked her.

For the Zhu family, internal stability is very important.

After Zhu Xiongying was established as the crown prince, there was no objection to the throne within the Zhu family.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang still nodded to Zhu Di from time to time:”Old Fourth, when are you going to give peace to heaven?”

Zhu Di could only roll his eyes to the sky.

His father cheated, and even caught one of his sons cheating, and there was nothing he could do about it..
