Chapter 80 The real conspiracy (1)
"Long live my emperor!"
The old emperor sat on the dragon throne, and the young emperor stood in front of the dragon throne.
Their eyes looked down at the countless devout ministers who were creeping and kneeling inside and outside the hall, as if God was watching the creatures on earth.
"Today is Grandpa Emperor's birthday!"
Zhu Yunxi's voice echoed in the Fengtian Hall, "The ancients said that life is rare in seventy years. I have read all history books. There are few emperors in all dynasties who have lived for more than seventy years."
"The founding lords, even fewer."
Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxiu took a half step forward and looked at his ministers, "You are all people who are familiar with the classics and knowledgeable. Tell me, there is an emperor who is like the emperor's grandfather who has been fighting for half his life, and who will personally take arrows whenever he fights, and who is strong and arched to the forefront and suffers all kinds of trouble. Then he works diligently and is busy with documents all day long?"
"However, there is an emperor who is as frugal as the emperor, who loves the people, who is not happy with merits but auspiciousness but praises not about luxury, and does not abuse people's power or encourages the people?"
There was no sound in the hall, only Zhu Yunyu's voice echoed.
"Why did this kid suddenly praise us?" The old man looked at Zhu Yunxi's straight back and said in his heart. At the same time, the old man seemed to be a little hot, and he said in his heart, "We don't seem to be... not as good as he said!"
"The emperor is the emperor, what is the emperor? Only the supreme and powerful person in the world calls himself the emperor and rule the world on behalf of the heavens!"
Zhu Yunxiu increased his voice and looked around his ministers, "The Supreme Emperor is the most powerful person who God has given to the people to turn the world in troubled times. He is the supreme emperor of the Ming Dynasty who gave to me."
"The founding of the Ming Dynasty is difficult and the difficulties of the country are the most difficult. All the ministers know more than me. In terms of great achievements, has the Supreme Emperor lost to the wise kings of all generations in his life?"
"But did the Emperor, the old man, boast about his achievements?"
Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxiu paused for a moment, and then continued, "The king loved great achievements, and I was taught by the emperor since I was a child. The most I taught me is to not forget the origin of the Zhu family and the poverty of the people."
"Pragmatic, hardworking, diligent, and frugal."
Zhu Yunxiu said word by word, with a firm look, "Many people in the world praised the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty, and historians praised the merits and avoided the harm."
"I'll ask you, the Qin Emperor's achievements are true, but what kind of life did the people of the Qin Dynasty live? Under the rule of the Supreme Emperor, are there any harsh tigers in the ruthless rule?"
"Emperor Wu of Han has made great achievements, but in his later years, he used his own favor and repeatedly launched wars, which led to the decline of national strength and chaos in internal affairs."
"The Qin Emperor and Han Wu were laid in the late years of their remnant country."
"In the later years of the Supreme Emperor, our Ming Empire was peaceful and peaceful in the world! Which one is higher and which one is lower, the judgment is now made."
"It is also different from the kings of all dynasties. The Supreme Emperor does not like to boast, does not allow flattery, and does not deny his virtue and politics to be recorded in history with big words."
"This kid..." The old man lowered his head, rubbed his knees with his big hands, and said to himself, "We... aren't that good. We just think that the scholar who is suffering from plague is unreliable. No one needs to remember what we do. Isn't it gilding on our face?"
"Besides, we have never thought of comparing with Qin Emperor and Han Wu. Are those two good birds? One commits evil when he is alive, and the other commits evil after he dies."
Thinking of it, he cursed in his heart, "Boy, compare us with Hanwu. That old boy has only been dead for many years, and his bones are dug out. Bah, it's unlucky!"
"Not to mention those so-called achievements, even if he was held for a birthday celebration, he would not allow it at the beginning. He also said that I wasted the people and the money, and mobilized the troops."
"It was my repeated persuasion that I reluctantly could not enjoy the whole world with the people."
"I will do this birthday for him and a special one. Not only will it be done, but everyone in the world will also remember it."
"We must also remember history, remember that I had such an emperor in the Ming Dynasty."
Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxiu looked at the ministers again and called out, "Fang Xiaoru, Xie Jin."
"I am here!" The two of them came out among the ministers.
"You two have great literary talent, and they have written books and biography in the National History Museum to compile historical books. Today I order you to put the Emperor's birthday celebration and the painstaking efforts of his 70 years into painting and writing, and spread them to the world. Can you be competent?"
"This is my blessing!" the two of them answered at the same time.
"You must write down what I said today!"
As he said that, Zhu Yunxiu turned around, lifted the hem of the dragon robe and knelt down to the old man, "Grandpa Emperor, it's not that my grandson wants to give you a lifetime of longevity, but that all the subjects in the world are looking forward to your lifetime of longevity."
At the same time, Li Jinglong, Duke Cao in the first row among the noble ministers, knelt down and kowtowed, "Grand Emperor, you have been working hard all your life, and now it is time to enjoy the blessings of respect by all people!"
As he said that, he continued to laugh loudly, "You always don't know that you are in the palace. These days, because of your birthday festival, the incense of temples and temples inside and outside the capital has always been several times popular, and some people have spent a lot of money to light the eternal lights directly."
"The people burn incense and make wishes for you. I wish you a lifetime!"
"Ha!" the old man laughed out loud, everyone loved to listen to good words, and he said, "Is there anything wrong? Let's celebrate our birthday, and the people burn incense?"
"Long lively said just now that you are the blessing of the Ming Dynasty and the blessing of the subjects of the world. With you, there will be blessings in the world!" Li Jinglong said loudly.
"Woo!" the old man nodded, "We really don't know about this. Let's go back and ask the Jinyiwei!"
Suddenly, Li Jinglong had a lot of good words prepared and directly stopped.
"Hey, I haven't been to court for a long time. It's really uncomfortable to sit on the dragon chaise coldly!" The old man stood up, rubbed his back, and said to the ministers with a smile, "What the emperor said just now is our good, as if we are not good at this birthday."
As he said that, he paused, "In a blink of an eye, we are all in seventy years old, we are really old. We know the destiny of heaven at fifty, and we have the loess buried in the neck in seventy."
"As these days, we have calmed down and thought about our whole life. We have done some good things and have done a lot of bad things. As for the reputation of life and death, let future generations say to us."
"But Duke Cao's words are right. We have worked hard all our lives. Now is the time to enjoy our happiness."
Speaking of this, the old man laughed heartily, "Isn't it just a birthday? Let's live... Today, our Forbidden City is lively and we can also taste the rich taste!"
Then his eyes looked at the queue of the princes and grandsons.
"It's rare that our sons and grandchildren are all back. Let's have a happy New Year in advance."
After the old man finished speaking, Li Jinglong, who was kneeling, stood up and shouted loudly, "The Supreme Emperor's Imperial Decree, the celebration of the birthday celebration begins!"
The ministers shouted, "Your Majesty will live forever, the sun and the moon will prosper forever, and the country will be prosperous forever!"
At this time, Zhu Yunxiu supported the old man and walked down the imperial stairs.
Li Jinglong also quickly stepped forward and bowed to support him. His movements were faster than those of the vassal kings. Originally, King Yan, King Zhou and others were about to step forward, but they felt a gust of wind blowing in front of him, and Li Jinglong was already ahead of them.
If outsiders don’t know, they would think that Li Jinglong is the filial son and grandson of the old man.
"You kid likes to do these lively things? We haven't celebrated a birthday for a long time. I've had such a big scene today. If you can't do it well, let's see how we deal with you!" The old man laughed and scolded.
"It is my blessing to let you clean up!" Li Jinglong said with a smile.
The old man smiled and waved to his sons, "Let's go, don't be standing there, just go drink with your father!"
