Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 105 Fame (Subscribe for the third watch!!!)
The 24th year of Hongwu was not a happy one. Even on New Year's Eve, Lao Zhu and Zhu Xiongying didn't seem happy.Da Zhu, who had just recovered, was groggy again, which of course made them unhappy.

Both Lao Zhu and Xiao Zhu were unhappy, and the other concubines and princes naturally seemed very cautious at this time.If there is such a little disrespect at this time, it is basically equivalent to falling out of favor.

The somewhat deserted New Year's Eve ended, and Lao Zhu and Xiao Zhu immediately went to work.

Zhu Xiongying opened his mouth and said to Lao Zhu, "The emperor's grandfather decided before that, with the five virtues, I will follow the Zhou, Han, Tang and Song Dynasties, rule the world with the fire virtue, and the color should be red. Now, my grandson has discussed with some ministers, There are new rules."

Lao Zhu took the notebook and said, "Why do the courts have to make official uniforms? They can't even make official uniforms? It's better for those people to make their own clothes, and it doesn't fit them well!"

For Lao Zhu's 'stingy', Zhu Xiongying looked at him with admiration. This was simply stingy to the extreme, and he was reluctant to give him 'work clothes'.Of course, Lao Zhu's reason is good, and it is appropriate to tailor the clothes to a country.

"Grandfather, civil servant, white-collar to descendant, go to the ground one inch, the sleeve is longer than the hand, and return to the elbow, the prince, marquis, and son-in-law are the same as the civil official. The military officer is five inches to the ground, and the sleeve is seven inches longer than the hand." Zhu Xiongying said directly, Talking about the style, "The clothes and curtains of officials are not allowed to use black, yellow and purple colors, and they are not allowed to weave dragon and phoenix patterns."

Old Zhu nodded, and Zhu Xiongying continued, "In addition to the black gauze hat, all civil and military officials in my Ming Dynasty, regardless of rank, must wear a patch on the chest and back of their robes. Civil officials use birds, military officers use animals, to show the difference."

Zhu Xiongying also showed Lao Zhu some differences in the colors, ribbons, belts or patches of official uniforms, etc.Lao Zhu is also quite satisfied, each has its own particularity, and basically it can be regarded as more suitable.

When Lao Zhu nodded, Zhu Xiongying continued, "When the emperor's grandmother was around, she loved the people like a child. Originally, the phoenix crown was only worn by the queen, but the emperor's grandmother has always been generous. The grandson thinks that in the future, a newly married woman can Fengguanxiapei."

Lao Zhu was taken aback for a moment. In fact, Lao Zhu was very strict with everyone except his own family.Children and grandchildren can dress indiscriminately, but not everyone else.Fengguanxiapei are not allowed to be worn indiscriminately.

Old Zhu was a little worried, and immediately said, "Ying'er, that's a phoenix crown!"

Hearing Lao Zhu's displeasure, Zhu Xiongying said, "It's definitely not a emerald phoenix, and the clothes are embroidered with golden dragon and phoenix patterns, but it just looks like a phoenix crown. It is not allowed to adorn nine dragons and four phoenixes, twelve large flowers and twelve small flowers each. It is only decorated with beads and flower hairpins, and it is called a phoenix crown, which is also the kindness that the emperor's grandmother bestowed on the women of the world."

Old Zhu was stunned for a moment, and then whispered, "Your imperial grandmother loves the people like a child the most, and is also the most respectful to the world. Then only Fengguanxiapei will be allowed on the day of the wedding leave, we will deny this!"

This is tantamount to acquiescing, things like phoenix coronets and xiapei, the folks can let go a little bit.But you also need to pay attention to the scale. It must not be a real phoenix coronet, not to mention compared with the empress’s phoenix coronet.

Zhu Xiongying thinks that such a thing can happen to make women in the world feel grateful for the queen's grace.And Lao Zhu was also moved. Empress Ma had a good reputation in the first place.But let his late wife have a good reputation, even if a woman gets married a few hundred years later, she still has to be grateful for the kindness of Queen Ma, Lao Zhu thinks it is possible.

Lao Zhu immediately said, "Ying'er, those uncles of yours we're talking about, it's not very nice of you to behave like this."

'Degraded', this is how Lao Zhu feels now.The treatment of his sons is about to decline.

Zhu Xiongying said bluntly, "Grandfather, you also know that since ancient times, princes lived in the country, and they were basically happier than the emperor. If the crown clothes, palaces, carriages, and guards of honor are second only to the emperor, I am afraid that I will think too much." Now the emperor uncles are fine, but what about the descendants of the emperor uncles, that’s not going to happen, they are also princes!”

Old Zhu was silent, he believed in his elder son's skills.But Lao Zhu is also very clear that according to his system, the prince's son will definitely inherit the prince in the future, and it will be passed on from generation to generation.

Zhu Xiongying continued at this time, "If one day my grandson ascends the throne, my grandson will not care about the attitude of the emperor's uncles. But what about the emperor's uncles, how do the emperor's uncles view the grandchildren of the grandson? Grandpa, many of the emperor's ages are too old. Not as big as me!"

Lao Zhu rubbed his temples, and then said, "Then you have to promise us that if one day you become the throne, you have to take good care of your uncle and your brothers and sisters. We can give them expenses, rely on them, and lower their ranks. Know the difference between monarch and minister. But Yinger, we are a family after all, we can't treat our family badly!"

"Don't worry about this, grandpa, my grandson will definitely not treat my uncle and brothers and sisters badly." Zhu Xiongying said, but also a little teased, "Grandpa, my uncles are not cheap, they are not bad. It's a headache to do something. Now Grandpa and Father have a headache, what should I do in the future?"

This time Lao Zhu was also a little embarrassed. Among his heirs, there were quite a few lawless ones.It is also the routine operation of some vassal kings to cause complaints in the fiefdom. It's just that Lao Zhu can't calm down, it doesn't mean he doesn't know.

Old Zhu said dryly, "Then you have to be careful. If your uncle is really making a scene, call him back and reprimand him, and send him back to his hometown in Fengyang. Except for those who conspire against you, you must not get your own family's blood on your hands." Blood."

After all, Lao Zhu still loves his children and grandchildren, even if there are many "scumbags" among his children and grandchildren, Lao Zhu does not want some unpleasant things to happen, and does not want to see some human relations tragedies staged.

Zhu Xiongying returned to Yingtian Mansion, so naturally he couldn't stay idle, and there were indeed many things he needed to do.

In addition to going to court and reviewing memorials, Zhu Xiongying must also go to the East Palace and chat with Da Zhu.The younger siblings are not very worry-free, and Zhu Xiongying also needs to learn a lesson.Especially the younger brother who likes to sleep in flowers, sleep in willows, and hide in golden houses. This is definitely a slap in the face.

It's just that Zhu Xiongying feels that his restless younger brother has learned to rebel now.Zhu Yunxi, who had been lying flat for a long time and only thought about eating, drinking and having fun, now really let herself go, and only after leaving the palace did she feel that life was wonderful.

No one dares to provoke him, and there is no need to worry about the lack of money. Some people want to get close to him and flatter him. matter.

As for Brother Huang's criticism now, just listen patiently and keep nodding to show that you are educated.It's just that the left ear goes in and the right ear goes out, Zhu Yunxi doesn't need to worry about so many things, continuing to eat, drink and have fun is his pursuit.What county king, prince, what fief, etc., don't think about it at all.

It is better to stay in the bustling Yingtian Mansion, this is life.If you go to a place of bitter cold, if you have to lead troops to fight, it will be a complete torture.

Zhu Xiongying didn't know what to say, maybe he hated iron but steel.It's just that the younger brother's "peace of mind" is not a bad thing for Zhu Xiongying. The most fearful thing is that these princes and grandsons have too many thoughts.

Da Zhu was quite happy, and was supported by Zhu Xiongying and walked out of the palace gate, "Okay, our Ying'er is going to get married soon, and our Ying'er is going to start a family."

"Maybe my father will be a grandfather next year." Zhu Xiongying also laughed, and said to Da Zhu, "At that time, my father will be able to hold his grandson. My grandson has recently been thinking about asking the artist to draw a picture for us. It’s good to keep a family portrait in mind.”

Da Zhu nodded and said, "Succeed, you can go find a painter when the time comes. It's good to keep it in mind, but now we are regretting that we don't have any portraits of your mother and concubine or your imperial grandmother."

Of course there are portraits, but traditional Chinese paintings often pursue artistic conception rather than pursuing 'truth'.There is still a certain difference between Western painting and sketching.

Zhu Xiongying is thinking about it, and his artistic attainment is not too high, that is, he had art classes in elementary school and junior high school.Of course, Zhu Xiongying has also been in contact with sketching, but he really doesn't have any talent.

The more craftsman's spirit is, the more craftsman's spirit is. Zhu Xiongying thinks it's better to tinker with pencils.It is also good to leave a sketch, Zhu Xiongying thinks such a thing can exist.

Zhu Xiongying really doesn't care much about the interests and hobbies of some traditional literati, some of their rules, etc., and he doesn't intend to cater to those people's ideas. It's really unnecessary.

The emperor's grandson is about to get married, which also makes the atmosphere in the palace look a little better. Naturally, many people are busy at this time. This is not just about the family, it can also be said to be a matter of the world. slack.

Concubine Guo Ning is now acting as an agent for the harem, so she is naturally extremely involved at this time.Other princes get married, as long as they are not too shabby.But the marriage of the emperor's grandson is something that everyone is staring at, and there must be no omissions.

Including the officials of the Ministry of Rites, etc., they dare not be careless at this time.The emperor's grandson, this is also the crown prince. The marriage of the emperor's grandson is naturally the top priority, at least it is the top priority now. These things must be done better, and absolutely no mistakes can be made.

Seeing that he will soon become the groom's officer, Zhu Xiongying is not in a hurry, because there are many things that he doesn't need to worry about at all, and he really doesn't need to take care of anything.

Now Zhu Xiongying just needs to wait for the concubine to marry into the royal family. Of course, before that, Zhu Xiongying also needs to do something.The main thing is to worship the ancestors, which is probably the most important thing that Zhu Xiongying, the grandson of the emperor, needs to do well when it comes to marriage.

As for other things, they have been arranged long ago, and everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

Not too nervous, maybe a little bit of anticipation, it just seems like that.
