First Prince of Ming Dynasty

For Zhu Biao, neither the royal family nor the aristocrats headed by the mission of Li Ren, nor the remnants of Xin Tun who is currently taking shelter of Yao Guangxiao are not credible. They each have their own interests and demands, but they should not want Daming to rule Korea. of.

Because the Ming Dynasty is too big, once they move into Korea, except for a few low-level people who need external force to break the deadlock, the inherent detached status of most aristocratic officials will be pulled down, the more corrupt and stubborn they are.

Zhu Biao was wandering outside with a teacup in his hand, while the rest of them didn't have so much to think about. They were all excited about going out for a few days, whispering and talking about what to wear to go out, Yingying Yanyan was so lively.

The Crown Princess, who is also in the top position, did not participate in the discussion. She knew about this matter a long time ago, so she naturally didn't need to deliberately express her joy, but looked at Wang Rui with a little deep meaning.

Like her own mother-in-law, Chang Luohua is not strict with the concubines below, and of course it can't be said that they are very close. He just handles the affairs of the Eastern Palace with a fair attitude. Those who have meritorious service must be rewarded and those who have done wrong must be punished. , no one is allowed to go beyond the rules.

In fact, this is also a kind of arrogance, disdain to put down your figure to fight with concubines, even less to show favor to others, even if one of them is as noble as Li Yan and Wang Rui, as beautiful as Qinglian, and as profound as warm jade and brocade.

After two cups of tea, Imperial Physician Zhang arrived, calm and calm, but the little eunuch beside him wanted to cry, wanting to say that he had urged the imperial physician, but he was really not in a hurry, otherwise he would have returned long ago .

Doctor Zhang is like a bright mirror in his heart. There are many famous doctors in the imperial hospital, but the so-called rulers are different, and the diseases that the imperial doctors are good at are different. It is also to diagnose the happy pulse and protect the fetus and keep the body healthy.

Since the crown prince specifically asked him to come by name, the implication is self-evident, so it is still very important to maintain a demeanor, and it is not decent to come here panting for a nobleman's pulse.

After taking the prince's pulse as usual, the imperial physician Zhang stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Your Highness is in good health, it is indeed my great blessing."

Zhu Biao withdrew his hand and said with a smile: "It is also thanks to the nourishing prescriptions of the imperial physicians. Since the imperial physician Zhang is here, please take the trouble to let the princess wait to see."

"It's just a humble minister's duty, I'm here to ask for your pulse."

Naturally, Chang Luohua was the first one. After putting on a silk handkerchief, he began to check the pulse. After all, it was only a few months after delivery, and the pulse was still weak and needed to be warmed up. After a few words of respectful instructions from the imperial physician, it was Li Yan's turn.

Li Yan probably guessed something, and waited for the result with great anticipation, but it was a pity that she was in good health, but there was nothing else, and then it was Wang Rui.

The result was as expected, it took Zhang Taiyi a long time to confirm, and then stood up with joy to congratulate the prince and princess, the blood of the Tian family extends the blessing of the clan.

Zhu Biao laughed happily and said: "Okay, come here, hurry up and congratulate the Holy Queen."

Chang Luohua nodded and said: "Mr. Wang has meritorious service. I took two precious ginseng from the storeroom to prevent pregnancy, and I will trouble Dr. Zhang to prescribe a prescription to protect pregnancy."

"Thank you, concubine..."

The rest of the people also congratulated the prince and concubine first, and then congratulated Wang Rui. Although they didn't know what everyone was thinking, they were all peaceful on the surface.

There was no need for Zhu Biao to intervene in the subsequent affairs, Chang Luohua arranged it in an orderly manner, but if this happy event was expected, then it was an unexpected surprise that Doctor Zhang diagnosed Nuanyu and also had a body.

Nuanyu, who was still in a state of ignorance, was pushed out to thank her, and Chang Luohua ordered people to take out the precious ginseng from the warehouse as usual, but there was only one, which was less than Wang Rui, because the status was different after all.

When Double Happiness comes to the door, it is natural to sprinkle money. Chang Luohua generously rewarded the servants of the Eastern Palace, especially Wang Rui and Nuan Yu's personal servants, asking them to serve them wholeheartedly, and there will be rewards when the emperor's grandson is born smoothly.

It is estimated that there will be rewards from Kunning Palace tomorrow, but not from the emperor's side. After all, it is only a concubine, and it doesn't matter whether they are male or female. Lao Zhu has to take into account the honor of his grandson.

After more than half an hour of excitement, everyone retreated and went back to their respective halls. The East Palace seldom gathers for dinner, and the reason is very simple, Zhu Biao doesn't like it.

When the people retreated, Zhu Biao lazily got up and went to lie down on the couch in the inner hall. Chang Luohua sat in front of the mirror and asked the maid to take off the hairpin on her head: "Your Highness should go to Wang's side to appease you. With a body."

"Okay, I'll go later, let me take a rest after a day of tossing around."

In fact, Zhu Biao didn't want to face Wang Rui too much. That woman was too cold and always looked respectful. She was a princess of Goryeo, but a servant who rubbed off all edges and corners in the palace.

Even if it makes people feel pity, but it's a bit boring to always look like this. Now no one in the East Palace of Nuoda dares to bully the majestic Prince Liangdi, and the empress and concubines are all gentle, so why put on such an appearance?

However, Zhu Biao's mentality is still very positive. Since he was welcomed here for the sake of politics, the glory and wealth that should be given must be given. After all, in a sense, the dowry is a kingdom.

Zhu Biao will not bully her because of his own preferences. If Wang Rui really wants to be clean and at ease after this child, then that's fine too. It's not that the East Palace can't afford to support an idler.

Zhu Biao lay on the couch and squinted his eyes. After a while, the familiar body fragrance came out, and he dragged his first wife in his arms casually: "Yang'er Liang'er was brought back to Kunning Palace by the father. The nannies followed suit, don't worry."

Chang Luohua looked at her husband's chin and said, "When you tell my concubine that the daylilies are cold, the queen mother will send someone over to say hello in the afternoon."

Zhu Biao was noncommittal, and Chang Luohua continued: "Nuanyu gave less, but according to the regulations, there are so many, you can go and reward some tomorrow."

Zhu Biao understood what she meant and replied: "You did the right thing, do whatever you want, if a Fengyi's treatment is higher than that of Liang Di, then the rules will be messed up."

………………

The couple talked privately for a while, and then Zhu Biao got up and went to Wang Rui's side. Now they live in the small hall, and when the East Palace is expanded, they will have their own courtyards.

In the Wangrui Palace, several maids from Koryo who were dowry were excitedly arranging the amulets for worship. Of course, it was a small piece, probably for peace of mind. Goryeo continued the style of worshiping Buddha in Silla. Relying on Buddhism to establish the foundation of the country, he once admonished that "the great cause of our country must be protected by the power of the Buddhas".

In the later period when the warriors ruled the country, the military officials wantonly killed the civil servants, which caused the Confucianism to weaken and everyone was in danger. Many civil servants converted to Buddhism for spiritual comfort.

As a result, everyone in Goryeo believed in Buddhism. Zhu Biao stood behind with Wang Rui with his hands behind his back, watching several Goryeo slaves shaking their heads and worshiping amulets, but what he thought about was how to deal with Goryeo Buddhism.

Belief is a very troublesome thing. If it is not resolved, it will easily lead to chaos, and it is extremely difficult to completely solve it. After all, religious believers are basically people who have given up this life to seek the next life. In their view, killing them may still be helping them.

"Aren't you going to say goodbye? Or don't you believe me?"

Wang Rui said calmly: "The concubine worshiped for five years when she was young, but she didn't get the slightest salvation. Buddha does not save those who have no destiny, and it is useless to worship again."

"I heard that there are many temples in Goryeo, and every Buddha's birthday is a grand event?"

"The concubine has only heard about it, and has never seen it with her own eyes."

"Daming is always better than Goryeo."

"The Eastern Palace is much better than the Royal Palace. The concubine is grateful for the kindness of His Highness and the Crown Princess."

"That's good. Let's write a family letter to the Queen Mother tomorrow. The elders must know about happy events."

"promise."

The next morning, Zhu Biao washed and changed his clothes, had breakfast, and then went to the morning court, as always, except that some well-informed officials congratulated him.

After entering the pilgrimage, various ministries took turns to report. First, the Ministry of Zhongshu reported the fire in Xianyou County, Xinghua Prefecture, which caused more than a hundred casualties and burned down countless dwellings.

The Ministry of War reported to Guizhou Propaganda Envoy Ai Cui to say that there were tribesmen who lived in long villages who were connected with 犵狫, and that they were in danger to stop the soldiers so as to refuse begging from the government to get rid of them.

The Ministry of Rites invited Nanchang King Zhu Xinglong's grandson to grow old. According to the etiquette system, the imperial court should grant him a gold book, and Jinbao allowed him to inherit the title and become a vassal, so as to secure the border and defend the royal family.
