In particular, the midwife's examination reported to him that both the pregnant woman and the fetus were very healthy. Next spring, a healthy little prince or princess would definitely be born.

The ministers could not control their temper.

It was completely against the ancestral system for Emperor Hongwen to stay in Beiwudang like this for a long time. Even if he found various excuses, it would not work. They were even afraid that he would stay here all winter.

What is there that is enough to attract Emperor Hongwen?

Even if we are building the late emperor's mausoleum, wouldn't it be enough to leave behind the craftsmen and ministers responsible for supervision?

On this day, King Rencheng could no longer bear it and blocked Emperor Hongwen in the study, who was returning to Xuanwu Palace to review the memorial.

Emperor Hongwen was smiling all over his face and was in an amazingly good mood.

"Your Majesty, the matter here has been almost settled. King Dongyang and others have submitted memorials and hope to welcome Your Majesty back to Pingcheng as soon as possible."

What Emperor Hongwen feared most was that his ministers would rush this matter.

Although it makes sense intellectually, emotionally it is really hard to accept that I have to give up my wife and children and leave far away from here.

"We will leave after the late emperor's mausoleum is repaired."

"I have the courage to advise you that it will take at least half a year for the late emperor's mausoleum to be completed. Your Majesty, for such a long time, you must return to Pingcheng to take charge. It is impossible for the capital to be without an emperor for a long time."

Emperor Hongwen disagreed. Of course, the capital cannot be without the emperor, but ministers can all gather in Beiwudang. Anyway, they work here for half a year every year. Now, there is nothing wrong with it being a whole year.

"Your Majesty, this is not in line with the ancestral system."

Made by ancestors!

The ministers kept talking about the ancestral system, and Emperor Hongwen became impatient.

"Your Majesty, besides, the gang members of Yi Hun and others have not been completely eradicated, and we are still at war with the Southern Dynasty. Many things must be dealt with immediately. You might as well return to Pingcheng first, and leave Li Yi and others to supervise the project, right?"

Emperor Hongwen frowned even more when he saw the thick stack of memorials sent urgently urging him to welcome the Holy Emperor back to the capital.
