Chapter 493
: Filial son and virtuous grandson
Who is Zhang Wen? This is a hero who crossed the river with Emperor Hongwu and was a long-time general who had many military achievements.
Although it was not the Marquis who was named a marquis just after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it was at least the title of Marquis Huining and 2,000 stones in the 12th year of Hongwu. If you really count it, this is also an absolute founding Duke and Marquis, and the grade is not low.
Even when Zhang Wen was granted a title of marquis, he was one of the leaders of the second time after the founding of the Ming Dynasty. In the 12th year of Hongwu, he was granted eleven marquises, and many of them followed Lan Yu to fight in the south and north and for his merits.
However, this Huining Hou seemed to be a general under the tent of Duke Liang Lan Yu at first glance, and it seemed to be a member of the Chang team. However, he was also a little fence-bearing and was watching from the mountains. He seemed to be in water, but he was indeed valued because of his ability.
However, such a fence-bearer may get a lot of opportunities because of this, but no one is willing to protect him when he is unlucky.
If the emperor wants to attack some nobles, he naturally needs some reason. Some nobles who are not strict in their family management and act rampant in law may become the first to emerge, and may become the targets of the emperor's remediation.
It seems to be a practice for the founding emperor to kill the founding heroes, and it is impossible not to kill them. Although famous generals have made great contributions to the establishment of the new dynasty, their fate is often not very good, and most of them are the fate of hiding the bow.
Killing a meritorious official is indeed a bad reputation, which makes people feel mean and ruthless, and they will destroy bridges when crossing the river.
But sometimes there is no way, and Wuxun is likely to become the largest group that destroys the legal system, and the harm is even greater than that of the royal family.
Two founding emperors with humble origins were also the two emperors with the greatest reputation in history to kill meritorious officials.
Zhu Yunyou will not be merciful, and sitting in his position, there will basically be no mercifulness. He will naturally give preferential treatment to Wuxun. However, if these people affect the development of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yunyou will be unpolite.
Lian Zining didn't know what to say, so don't say anything. For example, now looking at the edict in his hand, Huining Hou exceeded the system, so you must pay attention to such matters. Such matters must be impeached and taken to the court to discuss matters.
As for how the emperor would deal with Huining Hou, it was obviously something that Lian Zining didn't care about, and it was not his turn to care about it.
This is an opportunity to deal with Hou Chengning, Zhang Wen, but Zhu Yunyou thinks that Zhang Wen is a good target, and this target is more representative.
This is also a sign that Zhu Yunyou thinks is bad. There have been problems with the administration of officials before. Lao Zhu's strict laws cannot completely stop corruption. Since Zhu Yunyou ascended the throne, he has been corrupt again, which makes Zhu Yunyou very annoyed.
As Zhu Yunyou wanted to implement the implementation of the taxi-staying in the acre, some nobles also had other ideas. Many of these people became one of the main obstacles for Zhu Yunyou to implement the taxi-staying in the acre.
Those who can lead troops to fight are basically sent out now. Those who stay in Beijing are either reliable, or are just Rongyang or are really dandy.
Now that I have come to deal with these people, Zhu Yunyou feels that there is no pressure, not to mention that Lao Zhu is not here and wants to "please mercy", those "old ministers" have nowhere to ask for it.
Xu Miaoqing naturally didn't know what was happening in the court. Her most important task now is to raise her baby. Being able to give birth to children for the emperor is the most important task for Xu Miaoqing, and she doesn't need to worry about other things for the time being.
Even in order to help Xu Miaoqing take care of her baby, the imperial concubine Lian Qiongqiong began to take on some affairs in the palace under the will of Zhu Yunyou and Xu Miaoqing.
"Your Majesty, today Mrs. Chen Fen entered the palace and stated that his grandson was a playboy and domineering." Lian Qiongqiong was in charge of his work and said to Zhu Yunyou, "Mrs. Chen Fen wanted to ask for an order to enter the Wuyuan."
Chen Fenhou Zhu Shou, this is also Zhu Yunyou's old team, and this is also the first martial arts honor to "return to" Zhu Yunyou. He also became two key figures in Zhu Yunyou's management of Busan and Japan with the Marquis of Navigation Zhang He. The two played a key role in opening up sea transport channels and supervising maritime transportation affairs.
Unfortunately, Zhang He died of illness. Although he was posthumously named Duke of Enguo, he could not wait until Zhu Yunyou ascended the throne. Among his descendants, his eldest son Zhang Rong was appointed as the commander of the right guard of the navy, but his qualifications were mediocre, but at least he supported his lintel.
Zhu Shou could not survive until Zhu Yunyou ascended the throne. The most unfortunate thing was that his descendants were unbearable. Although his son was now promoted to the commander of the right guard of the navy army, he was just a completely empty position and had no real position. If his son is not a good person, his grandson will probably not be a good person.
This also made many people laugh at it, thinking that no matter whether it was Zhang He or Zhu Shou, their descendants would definitely be of great use with the contributions of their fathers.
However, seeing that a good hand of cards is about to be played, the incense that used to be gone might disappear because of the unscrupulous descendants.
Holding Zhu Ruyi, Zhu Yunyou asked with a smile, "Oh? Mrs. Chen Fei has entered the palace to ask for a meeting. It seems that her grandson is really naughty."
Although the queen is qualified to discipline foreign ministers who have not grown up, this is theoretically the case. The queen basically doesn’t care about those people, and even the queen of the royal family generally doesn’t care about them.
The forced Zhu Shou's wife to enter the palace to ask for a meeting and ask the queen to discipline her descendants, which also shows that Zhu Shou's wife is really helpless. Her husband's reputation for life may be destroyed in the hands of these unworthy descendants.
As for asking Zhu Yunyou, let’s not talk about whether Zhu Shou’s wife has the qualifications. It’s just that if she really arrives at Zhu Yunyou, there will be no room for improvement in this matter. Maybe it will be a discipline at that time, and it is very likely to be a robbery, or even a family confiscation and extermination of the clan.
"Your Majesty, Chen Fahou Shizi has a sloppy personality and is either beating or scolding the people in the house." Lian Qiongqiong continued to report at this time, "After Chen Fahou inherited the title, he was disrespectful to his mother and was not friendly and filial."
Zhu Yunyou probably understood that after Zhu Shou's death, his son inherited the title. However, the one who inherited the title was not the son of Zhu Shou's first wife, which means that the one who inherited the title was not the legitimate son, and the legitimate son died early.
Now that Zhu Shou's first wife has entered the palace to ask for a meeting, she is probably forced to do so miserably, so she thought about asking for a meeting with the queen.
Zhu Yunyou sighed and said, "He is our confidant. Now that the family is in a state of peace, Zhu Shou is afraid that it will be difficult to have peace. Forget it, the queen will issue an imperial decree tomorrow to ask her wife to go to the palace to scold her."
Giving Zhu Shou a little bit of face, but Zhu Yunyou can only give him a little bit of face. It is true that Zhu Shou is his confidant, but it does not mean that Zhu Shou’s contributions can make his descendants rampant.
Even if Zhu Yunyou will not seize the title and exterminate the clan, it is hard to say whether the inheritance of the title of Chen Hou will change.
Xu Miaoqing also said at this time, "Your Majesty, I still don't want to see you. I have heard of how Mrs. Chen Fen is virtuous. I have heard of some of the small families who came out of a small family and suddenly became rich and domineering. When I heard that, I even wanted to betroth the merchants first, the granddaughter of Chen Fen Fen first."
Zhu Yunyou suddenly became annoyed, but he really didn't know what to say for such a thing. This is probably human nature.
Zhu Shou's legitimate son died early, which made the second son of the illegitimate son get the title. When these two sons got to power, they became domineering, disrespectful to Zhu Shou's first wife and treat their deceased brothers, wives and daughters harshly, probably because he felt that he was the marquis of the Ming Dynasty.
Don’t overestimate the bottom line of some people, and don’t overestimate the IQ of some people. There are too many people who will lose their power once they gain power.
"Even the queen has heard of this. I think the facts that the stupid husband and wife did are dirty." Zhu Yunyou said angrily, "In that case, we are not doing well. Zhu Shou has gone, and we can't even take good care of his wife and children."
Xu Miaoqing continued at this time, "Your Majesty doesn't need to think too much. In my early years, I was in the royal palace and the backyard was the most dirty thing. The mansion of the Duke and the Marquis had the most troublesome things. I have seen a lot of troubles in the house and heard a lot."
Xu Miaoqing also has a good say in this. Although Xu Da is cautious and respectful, his successor is not very good. This is Xu Miaoqing's biological mother, but Xu Miaoqing naturally sees what her biological mother has. She is able to marry Zhu Yunyou, which is also fortunate that she did not learn to be her mother.
Many founding great men and women became famous and fame, and after they were unparalleled, many of them became nouveau riche, and many of them had wives and unfilial sons. Or those princes and marquis fought for half their lives and then began to enjoy themselves. It was normal for a large number of wives and concubines in the mansion to be full of wives and concubines.
There will be no shortage of small families, or the daughter of merchants, and the marriage between Wu Xun is normal. If you are fascinated by the foxes in the brothel, you may also be taken back to your house as a concubine.
If there are such situations, it is normal for the mansion to be in peace. The children of farmers still have to compete for family property. The noble family values not only money, but also hereditary titles.
Perhaps Zhu Shou's descendants, who inherited the title, were unfilial, but Zhu Shou's wife might not be a good-looking person. She might not be sure to use the imperial power to control the mansion of Chen Houhou.
"Then you don't care about this matter, let's do it." Zhu Yunyou made a decision and said, "They are not worried about it, but we Ruyier is the most well-behaved."
Zhu Ruyi's fat little face was full of pride, and the little girl blinked her big eyes and said, "Dad, my daughter is the most well-behaved and sensible, and my daughter is the most obedient. It's just that we want to wear new clothes."
"Little Man!" Zhu Yunyou immediately became happy and hugged Zhu Ruyi and said, "Your mother is so thrifty. Why did you give birth to a daughter who likes gorgeous clothes? When we were young, we were not like you, your emperor brother."
Xu Miaoqing immediately lowered her head and smiled. Her precious son liked to wear new clothes the most, and she especially liked to wear five-clawed dragon robes, and often encouraged him to get some rewards from his great-grandfather.
It seems that children may not be like parents!
