Ming Dynasty: The Jingnan Rebellion has just been successful, and Zhu Yuanzhang has been resurrected

Chapter 105: Taimiao Offering Sacrifice to Heaven and Ancestors
"Ah this."

Zhang Wu was stunned for a moment, and turned to look at Ping An with a strange look in his eyes: "Good boy, you are quite brave. Not only did you come to our Beiping, but you also made our prince furious?"

"Prince Yan, can you tell me when you will send troops?" Ping An said to Zhu Di anxiously.

"I"

"Don't be angry, don't be angry. There's no point in arguing with a fool!" Zhu Di took a deep breath and forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart.

Immediately, he turned to look at Zhang Wu beside him and shouted, "What are you still standing there for? Wasn't what I just said clear enough?"

"Swish!" Zhang Wu's face changed. He didn't dare to hesitate any longer. He stepped forward, grabbed Ping An and pulled him outside.

"Prince Yan, please answer me. The emperor's grandson Yunhu is still waiting for my reply!" Ping'an was pulled out by Zhang Wu, and he turned his head and shouted to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di had a gloomy face and said nothing.

After a while.

Ping'an was pulled away by Zhang Wu, and the voice disappeared.

"Huh!" Zhu Di took a long breath, shook his head, and said, "Finally, it's quiet!"

Yao Guangxiao was speechless for a while. He was very powerful and had one plan after another. However, he had no choice but to meet Zhu Yunhuan, who was cheating. What could he do?
"This kid Yunhu is really too evil!" Zhu Di said quietly after holding it in for a long time.

Yao Guangxiao was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Indeed."

"Last time he wrote a letter, but this time he didn't even pretend and just asked Ping'an to come to my house. It seems that Yunhu really wants me to go to Yingtian Prefecture. In that case, I'll go!" Zhu Di said in a deep voice.

He smelled uneasiness.

After Zhu Yunhuan entered Yingtian Prefecture, it was like a fish leaping over the dragon gate, and many things gradually went wrong.

In the current situation, he felt that if he continued to hide in Peking, he would end up dying of chronic illness. In comparison, it would be far better to go to Yingtianfu and try his luck, facing death and then surviving.

Yingtianfu, small courtyard!

Zhu Yuanzhang stood in the yard, looking towards the direction of the imperial palace with a dazed look in his eyes.

Not long ago, Jiang Li told him what happened in the court.

Zhu Yunhuan brought out the imperial Ming ancestral precepts.

This result was somewhat beyond his expectation.

He originally thought that Zhu Yunhuan would kill all the opposing ministers like he did, but Zhu Yunhuan cited the Ming Dynasty's ancestral precepts and directly legalized his identity.

This operation was many times more clever than his idea of ​​killing people directly.

Zhu Yunhuan now clearly has absolute control.

It is undoubtedly very rare that when a person can decide everything, he is willing to bend down and speak nicely.

Most people tend to get lost in the vortex of power.

"This kid Yunhu is much better than I thought!" Zhu Yuanzhang's heart was full of bitterness.

He regretted it, really regretted it.

"Your Majesty!" Jiang Li came over again with a strange look on his face.

Zhu Yuanzhang came back to his senses, calmed himself down, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Emperor Yunhu's grandson went to the Duke of Wei's mansion!" Jiang Lin said.

"The Duke of Wei's Mansion?" Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned when he heard this, his eyes a little puzzled. He said, "Yun Hu went to the Duke of Wei's Mansion. What is there to report?"

"Three years ago, Emperor Yunhu's grandson wanted to marry Xu Miaojin, but you stopped him at that time," said Jiang Lin.

"Shua!" Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed, and he was a little surprised and asked, "Are you saying that Yunhuan went to the Duke of Wei's mansion because of Miaojin?"

"Yes!" Jiang Li nodded.

There was one thing he didn't say. Someone once heard Xu Zengshou say the word "Queen" with a happy look on his face.

As soon as Zhu Yunhuan went to the Duke of Wei's Mansion, Xu Zengshou mentioned "Queen". Anyone who is not stupid can understand the connection between them.

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed from gloomy to bright. Finally, he sighed deeply, waved his hand at Jiang Li, and said, "You go down first."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Jiang Li bowed and turned to leave.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were complicated and he opened his mouth, but in the end he said nothing.

In the current situation, he can no longer stop Zhu Yunhun. No one in the entire Ming Dynasty can stop Zhu Yunhun.

A speechless night!
The next day, the sun slowly rose from the east, and a new day arrived.

Life goes on as usual.

Everything seemed to be unchanged. The only difference was that Yingtian Prefecture had a new owner and the Ming Dynasty warship had a new helmsman.

"Have you heard? His Majesty is going to offer sacrifices to heaven in the Taimiao today. This is to determine the status!"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? The news is spreading like wildfire now. Who in Yingtian Prefecture doesn't know about it? Let me tell you a little gossip. It's said, just said, not true, that the imperial edict for the enthronement of Emperor Yunhu's grandson was written by Fang Xiaoru."

"Fang Xiaoru? No way? He was a close confidant of Emperor Jianwen, and he had a strong character. How could I not believe that he would write the edict of enthronement for the grandson of Emperor Yunhu?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe it, it's true anyway."

"That doesn't seem possible. Is Fang Xiaoru so spineless? I don't think he's the kind of person who's afraid of death!"

"You're right. Fang Xiaoru is definitely not a coward. He even dared to risk his life in court and confronted the grandson of the Emperor Yunhu. How could he possibly be a coward? I think he has his own reasons for writing the edict of accession."

"Hey, are you mistaken? Emperor Yunhu is the eldest grandson of the Ming Dynasty and should have inherited the throne. Although he has now entered Yingtian Prefecture, where is his status? Fang Xiaoru is the leader of the scholars in the world, and scholars value rituals and laws the most."

"Right, right, that's probably the reason. Fang Xiaoru probably didn't want to write the edict for the accession of Emperor Yunhu, but if he didn't, the future of scholars in the world would be difficult. Moreover, if he didn't write it, how would scholars in the world view him?"

"."

The crowd was talking about the change of owner of Yingtian Prefecture. However, for ordinary people like them, it was just a change of sleep. Their lives had not changed at all. They still lived the same way as before.

In addition, because they were deeply influenced by Confucian culture, they also felt that it was very normal for Zhu Yunhuan to sit on the throne.

Originally, the throne should have been inherited by Zhu Yunhuan, but now there are just a few more twists and turns.

Also, now that Zhu Yunhuan has regained the throne, doesn't this further prove that the throne should have been occupied by Zhu Yunhuan? Otherwise, Zhu Yunhuan should have been suppressed.

The thinking of the people under the rule of feudal dynasties is sometimes so simple.

Especially after Zhu Yunhuan brought out the imperial Ming Dynasty's ancestral precepts, more people recognized him.

Although the Imperial Ming Ancestor Instructions was written by Zhu Yuanzhang, since the rules have been established, Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor and writer, must abide by them and set an example.

When Zhu Yuanzhang was here, everyone was intimidated by his majesty and did not dare to say much.

But now that Zhu Yuanzhang is dead and Zhu Yunhuan is leading the charge, what is there to be afraid of? Just charge and it's over!

Zhu Yuanzhang's move to pass the throne to Zhu Yunwen was inappropriate.

A legitimate son is a legitimate son.

A bastard is a bastard.

There is an essential difference between the two, how can they be confused?

If the legitimate son is not legitimate, and the illegitimate son is not illegitimate, wouldn't the Ming Dynasty be in chaos?

Thousands of years of feudal blockade have made people accustomed to it.

The idea that there is a difference between legitimate and illegitimate children is deeply rooted.

Not to mention the inheritance of the throne, even in family inheritance, the eldest son will inherit the family business. Even among ordinary people, the eldest son is the most respected.

Fengtian Palace!
Early in the morning, all the ministers rushed to the front of the palace and waited quietly.

They have already acknowledged Zhu Yunhuan's identity.

Today is the day for offering sacrifices to heaven in the Taimiao Temple, after which Zhu Yunhuan will ascend the throne and become emperor. No one wants to be late for such a critical moment.

If you are late at this time and are misunderstood as trying to please the new emperor, your future will be ruined at best, and your life may be in danger at worst.

"Have you heard? The Duke of Liang fought against several vassal kings outside the city yesterday, and defeated them!"

"That's right, but I heard that the Duke of Liang didn't do much, and the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry directly charged and defeated the princes. These two armies are truly terrifying."

"The Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are indeed powerful. I'm looking forward to seeing whether His Highness will launch an expedition to the grasslands. If that happens, I'm afraid the many tribes on the grasslands will face a catastrophe!"

"I really can't believe how terrifying the Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are on this grassland."

"What do you think? Will the vassal kings be overwhelmed during the upcoming sacrifice to heaven and ancestors?"

"."

The court officials were whispering to each other, each with a complicated expression.

They all had a vague premonition that the Ming Dynasty would usher in a period of rapid development in the future.

It’s nothing, he’s just too good at fighting and his fighting power is too high!

An emperor of average ability can be a king who maintains the status quo, but would Zhu Yunhuan, who has the Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry under his command, honestly be a king who maintains the status quo?
Anyway, they don't believe it.

"What do you think? Can we restore the glory of the Tang Dynasty and let all nations come to pay tribute?" someone suddenly said.

"All nations come to pay tribute!"

Everyone's eyes gleamed with a gleam of light upon hearing this. Who wouldn't want to live in an era where all nations would come to pay tribute? It would not only be an honor and a sense of pride, but also mean that they might be remembered in history!
Ma Sanbao walked out of Fengtian Hall and said, "Your Highness has arrived!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Yunhuan walked out of the Fengtian Hall.

"Greetings, Your Highness!" The ministers knelt and said in unison.

"My Lords, please stand up. The auspicious time has arrived. Let's go to the Taimiao!" Zhu Yunhuan waved his hand with a faint smile on his face.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

The ministers slowly stood up.

"Boom boom boom!"

A dull drum beat sounded.

Then, a melodious horn sounded: "Woo-woo-woo!"

Zhu Yunhuan took a step forward, and his ministers followed closely behind him.

The group of people walked towards the Taimiao in a mighty procession.

In the small courtyard!
Zhu Yuanzhang stood in the yard, listening to the heavy drumbeats and melodious trumpet sounds, his eyes looking towards the direction of the Taimiao.

Zhu Yunhuan was going to offer sacrifices to heaven and inform his ancestors that he was officially ascending the throne as emperor.

"Squeak!" The courtyard door was pushed open from the outside.

Tang He came before Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor's grandson Yun Hu and his ministers have already left for the Imperial Ancestral Temple. Let's go too!"

Although Zhu Yuanzhang never said it, he vaguely felt that Zhu Yuanzhang regretted it, so after some hesitation, he finally went to the courtyard to find Zhu Yuanzhang and invited Zhu Yuanzhang to watch Zhu Yunhuan's coronation ceremony together.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled wryly and said, "Tang He, Yun Hun has invaded Yingtian Prefecture. Is it appropriate for me to go over and watch his coronation ceremony now?"

Tang He looked up at Zhu Yuanzhang, his expression serious, and nodded heavily: "Suitable!"

Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth and sighed: "Alas"

Then he fell into silence.

Tang He waited for a while, and seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang hadn't responded yet, he said, "Your Majesty, if we don't go now, we won't be able to catch up!"

Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath and said, "Well, since I'm free now, I might as well go over and take a look!"

After saying that, he took a step and walked towards the door.

Tang He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's back with a look of surprise, then shook his head with a wry smile and followed him.

Outside the city!

Lan Yu's face was calm as he led his troops outside the city, like a towering mountain, stopping one vassal king after another.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The sound of drums and trumpets came from the city behind them.

"Yunhuan is going to offer sacrifices to the heavens and inform his ancestors, and is ready to ascend the throne!" Lan Yu was stunned at first, and then a smile appeared on his face.

Zhu Neng hesitated and said, "Duke of Liang, His Highness is about to offer sacrifices to the heavens and ancestors and ascend the throne. I don't think any more princes will come. Why don't we go back and bring these captured princes with us to present a congratulatory gift to His Highness for his coronation!"

"Are you taking us as a gift?"

Zhu Neng did not cover his voice, and his words were heard clearly by the princes, making them very angry.

They are vassal kings, but now they have become gifts?

After their anger, they fell silent again.

They were vassal kings, but at this moment, they were also prisoners.

"Duke Liang, I think it is more important to attend Yunhuan's coronation ceremony. If you miss it, it will be a lifelong regret!" Zhu Liang hesitated for a moment and spoke.

"That's right, Duke of Liang, this is a big deal. Besides, no princes have come here for a long time. I guess they know you are blocking here and don't dare to come. They are waiting for people somewhere else." Zhu Chun also said.

Looking at the fate of Zhu Tan, Zhu Zhen, Zhu Zhi, Zhu Zhan and others, the two of them were extremely relieved. Facts proved how wise their decision to surrender was.

A single thought can mean heaven or hell.

Although it is unknown how Zhu Yunhuan will deal with the two of them, what is certain is that the outcome for the two of them will definitely be much stronger than that of Zhu Tan, Zhu Zhen, Zhu Zhen, and Zhu Zhan.

"Okay, then let's go and attend His Highness's coronation ceremony!" Lan Yu hesitated for a moment and then made the decision.

Since Zhu Zhi and Zhu Zhan, no vassal kings have come here again. He also understood that this was probably because the vassal kings knew that he was blocking people outside the city and were scared and dared not come near.

"Boom!"

Lan Yu withdrew his troops and took the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry back to the city to attend Zhu Yunhuan's coronation ceremony.

at the same time!

Some princes had complicated expressions and were confused about the future.

Before, they vowed to teach Zhu Yunhuan a lesson and suppress him, but the current situation. Zhu Jian and Zhu Chun surrendered, and Zhu Tan, Zhu Zhen, Zhu Zhi, and Zhu Zhan were captured. This made their good situation take a sharp turn for the worse in an instant.

At this moment, they were no longer sure of victory. The only good news was that Zhu Di sent troops, which made them feel a little more at ease.

"Those guys, can't they just wait for others? They have to rush over to deliver it!"

"Even Lan Yu can be awakened, Yun Hun is really a pervert!"

"Alas, drums and horns are beating in the city. This must be Yunhuan offering sacrifices to the heavens and ancestors. He is about to ascend the throne and become emperor. If Zhu Jian, Zhu Chun, Zhu Tan, Zhu Zhen, Zhu Zhi, Zhu Zhan and others could wait for others, we can now gather our forces to attack Yingtian Prefecture. But now, we can only watch Zhu Yunhuan ascend the throne and become emperor."

"Things shouldn't be like this!"

"."

The princes remained silent, their expressions bitter.

The current situation is far different from what they imagined.

Now they feel confused about the road ahead, and no one has confidence in defeating Zhu Yunhuan.

The reason why Chunchun didn't run away directly was that he didn't dare.

Everyone followed Zhu Yunwen's order and sent troops to attack Zhu Yunhuan. Even if they ran away now, would Zhu Yunhuan just pretend nothing happened?

Moreover, after Zhu Yunhuan ascended the throne, would he also reduce the power of the princes?

Now that they have finally gathered together, they must find Zhu Yunhuan to ask for an explanation.

They would not run away before getting a clear answer from Zhu Yunhuan, because they knew clearly that they could not escape in their current situation.

Taimiao!

At this moment, the place is already crowded with people.

The people of Yingtian Prefecture put down their work and rushed to participate in this grand event.

Li Jinglong, Zhu Gaoxu and Sheng Yong brought a large number of troops to maintain order at the scene.

Tie Xuan, Fang Xiaoru, Xia Yuanji and others were busy preparing for the heavenly sacrifice on the high platform.

"The Emperor's grandson Yunhu has arrived!" Suddenly, a loud shout was heard.

Zhu Yunhuan appeared and walked towards the Taimiao, with civil and military officials following closely behind him.

There was a huge group of people.

"Shhhhh!"

"Greetings to the Emperor's grandson Yunxun!"

The onlookers, the soldiers maintaining order, and even the officials preparing for the sacrifice on the platform, all bowed down and knelt at this moment.

The scene fell into silence.

Silence is better than sound!
Zhu Yunhuan smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Everyone, get up!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Everyone thanked him and stood up.

The soldiers continued to maintain order and the ceremonial officials continued to prepare. Only the onlookers cast their curious eyes on Zhu Yunhuan and started to talk.

"You see, His Highness is very gentle and not at all arrogant. I believe he will definitely be a good emperor!"

"Your Highness looks so young! I have a strong feeling that our Ming Dynasty is about to take off!"

"Is this the grandson of Emperor Yun Hu who trained the two invincible armies, the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry? He doesn't look like him at all."

"You are indeed the True Dragon Emperor chosen by Heaven. When I look at His Highness, he is like a banished immortal from heaven!"

"."

in the crowd.

Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze fell on Zhu Yunhuan and he was stunned for a moment.
