Chapter 1846: It's a joke

Obviously, although Zhu Zai was young, after experiencing this change, he gradually matured, not to mention that he was prepared today. Seeing that the officials who were the best at the past were still looking dull, Zhu Zai was calm instead.

At this time, Zhu Zai continued, "There is no taboo. Since you dare not say it, let me tell you. Ya's father is about to leave. I want to keep him several times, but Ya's father must leave. Oh... I can't continue to force him to stay. I have two fathers in my heart, but there is no reason for being a father to give his son a submission? I think... this time I will give you no fiefdom or any official title. Just one: King Ye Chunqiu of Lu, who is like father and son, I think he is worthy of his great achievements in the court, and I still ask him to return to the State of Lu, and entrust the King of Lu to rank above the princes and kings, add nine tins, and allow him to worship without a name, and go to the palace with swords and shoes."

The words were astonishing, probably to describe this situation. As soon as this statement was spoken, even the originally silent officials suddenly became uproar.

The so-called Jiuxi is not fun.

These nine ceremonial instruments are nine kinds of ceremonial instruments, which are special honors given to the princes by the emperor, namely chariots, horses, clothes, musical instruments, Zhuhu, Nabao, tigers, axes, bows, arrows, etc. These nine ceremonial instruments are symbols of the most powerful ministers. During the Han Dynasty, Wang Mang and Cao Cao added nine ceremonial instruments. Later, Sima Zhao and the founding emperors of Song, Qi, Liang and Chen all added nine ceremonial emperors, and then Li Yuan, Wang Shichong, the emperor of Northern Qi Gao Huan, and Gao Yang, the son who founded Northern Qi.

Later, the nine tins almost became a symbol of usurping the throne.

Why? Because the Nine Tin hidden contains the symbol of inheriting the destiny of heaven, who can inherit the destiny of heaven? Only the emperor!

As a minister, the so-called inheritance of the destiny of heaven was an honor, but the ministers, like the emperor, all inherited the destiny of heaven, and used these nine ritual instruments, which means that the status of the minister has reached an unprecedented situation.

So all the ministers who had added nine tins of the country eventually became the founding emperors.

Now, adding Jiuxi can be said to be like calling you a rioter.

At first, everyone thought this was some hint from Zhu Zai. Could it be that His Highness King Lu was a traitor, so he used Jiuxi to humiliate His Highness King Lu?

Could it be...His Your Majesty and King Lu have turned against each other?

But after thinking about it carefully, everyone quickly rejected this idea.

It's very simple, this is illogical! Even if you turn against each other, Your Highness King Lu is about to leave the country soon. Why should Your Majesty use this to humiliate King Lu? Moreover, the emperor's current status may not be stable. There are many dissatisfied inside and outside the court and the country. Now Your Majesty is relying on Your Highness King Lu's prestige. At this critical moment, he will deliberately humiliate King Lu. What's the benefit to Your Majesty?

But speaking of adding Jiuxi, there was never a person with such honor in the Ming Dynasty. At one time, it was equivalent to deposing the system of adding Jiuxi.

Now that I suddenly mentioned it, how can I not make people start to cause all kinds of speculation?

But the more you guess, the more you feel it is difficult to guess.

On the contrary, Zhu Zai looked at everyone's different faces and couldn't help feeling strange. He couldn't help but say, "Do you think my father is not worthy of Jiuxi? Why is this? I have read it in the Zhou Li, I have read it in the "Spring and Autumn" and "Zhou Li", the ritual of Jiuxi is the highest gift of the emperor. The person who was granted the title is the emperor's destiny. What? If the ministers have anything to say, it's okay to say it."

call……

Wang Hua was holding his face in his arms and was a little nervous, but now he was relieved. He couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, how could His Majesty have such an idea?"

Zhu Zai said: "I have seen it in the book, but I have not said it. It is recorded in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Book of Rites. I have specifically asked Gu Fan, and Gu Fan also thinks it is good."

Suddenly, everyone couldn't help but laugh and cry.

turn out to be……

This is a joke.

Your Majesty is too young, and although he is willing to study and spends time, he is young after all. Although he is familiar with the Spring and Autumn Period, Zuo Zhuan, and the Book of Rites, he probably hasn't explained the Hanlin's words thoroughly to him in terms of classics and history, so he made such a joke today.

As for Gu Dayong, Gu Dayong must have read in the inner study room. However, this eunuch often doesn't learn deeply about studying. He probably thought this was awesome, but he didn't know another deep meaning inside. Moreover, when His Majesty asked, he naturally nodded in agreement with everything.

Wang Hua had a tense face, wondering if he should explain it.

Zhu Zai said, "Since I ascended the throne, the reward has always been the top priority. After thinking about it, I will add Jiuxie. Don't talk about it anymore. I have been determined by this Jiuxie ceremony. I have ordered the ritual supervisor to prepare. Yafu, come and listen to the order."

In fact... Ye Chunqiu was also a little confused. When he heard Jiuxi, he immediately thought of Wang Mang and Cao Cao, and his heart skipped a beat. When His Majesty said this, he couldn't help but feel amused and crying like others.

But after thinking about it, I knew that Zhu Zai was thinking, so I had to go out to work and said truthfully: "I dare not accept it."

Zhu Zai frowned and said, "How can you not accept it?"

Ye Chunqiu said: "Your Majesty, the ceremony of Jiuxi, Wang Mang, Cao Cao, Sima Zhao, Li Yuan and others have all accepted it."

This is obvious enough. Although Zhu Zai has not learned the classics and history thoroughly, he should be familiar with who Wang Mang and Cao Cao is!

Zhu Zai was stunned for a moment, then said, "But Ya's father is not Cao Cao or Wang Mang. They have accepted it. Is Ya's father unacceptable?"

Zhu Zai seemed a little willful, but it was understandable that he spent a lot of effort on this matter, but suddenly he found out that he was wrong. This was the first thing he did when he was the emperor, and of course he could not admit it. Once he admitted it, wouldn’t it be a joke for the people of the world?

Zhu Zai continued: "It is precisely because of Wang Mang and Cao Cao who added Jiuxi that I made up my mind. Because I know that Yafu is not a rioter, I naturally will not be influenced by them. I have decided on this matter."

Ye Chunqiu was not angry, but could not help but amuse Zhu Zai a little. He naturally knew that Zhu Zai was a little unlucky and could only be stubborn. But from another perspective, if he took office, he made a mistake, and made a very low-level mistake in front of everyone. If he admitted that he would even make this mistake, what prestige would there be in the future?

Ye Chunqiu thought for a while and finally said, "I will receive the order."
