Chapter 115                                                                                                                             

When Zhu Qizhen heard the Queen Mother's sound, he felt like a whip and immediately stepped forward. Because the bed was shorter, he didn't care about anything, so he knelt in front of the bed and grabbed the Queen Mother's hand. Just because he rushed too quickly, his knees hit the hardwood bed. It was inevitable that he would suffer pain, but he seemed to be unaware of it and said, "Mom, you are in the Cining Palace."

The Empress Dowager seemed to wake up slowly and was about to move, but heard Lou Yuan say, "Empress Dowager, you can't move now, I'm applying needles to you."

The Empress Dowager also met Lou Yuan.

He just nodded weakly.

Although Lou Yuan was old, he still used needles as if he had done it. In Zhu Qizhen's opinion, with a light brush on his hand, the Empress Dowager's body was covered with silver needles.

Moreover, although the Empress Dowager is old, she is still different from men and women. She is wearing a single moon-white silk dress. Lou Yuan was not aware of it, which did not prevent him from using needles by himself.

When it was time to remove the needle, it was even more likely that it was taken down in the blink of an eye.

It seems that after Lou Yuan was acupuncture for the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager became much more relaxed, but she still struggled to sit up.

The queen and the princess came forward to serve.

Zhu Qizhen watched Lou Yuan preach for the Empress Dowager and refused to mention it.

After a while, the medicine was cured, Zhu Qizhen fed the Empress Dowager and drank it. The Empress Dowager then improved a little.

The Empress Dowager looked at the princes standing aside and said, "Let the children go down."

Zhu Qizhen nodded, and then let the children leave.

The Empress Dowager looked at Zhu Qizhen and said, "Emperor, my body is gone. I have no other idea, I just want to hold my great-grandson and let the prince come back."

Zhu Qizhen nodded and said, "Since my mother asked him to come back, let him come back."

The Crown Prince Zhu Jian was no longer in Changzhou, and after the Lu Yong case in Hangzhou, there was no obstacle to the matter of clearing the clan.

Zhu Jianjun was no longer in Jiangnan, and then he was in several places in Jiangxi, Fujian, and Huguang, either inspecting or clearing his own hands. In short, Zhu Qizhen did not ask Zhu Jianjun to do anything when he planned Zhu Jianjun.

Mainly look at it.

Only by understanding what the bottom of the Ming Dynasty looked like can one be a good emperor.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager's body was in poor health. As his favorite grandson, the prince naturally had to come back first due to emotion and reason.

The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "Okay, Emperor, I can't do it in front of me."

Zhu Qizhen said, "My mother, you say that, with the genius doctor Lou, don't think too much."

The Empress Dowager smiled slightly, looked at the patterns on the beams and pillars, and said, "I actually missed your father for a long time. I know that the Empress Dowager doesn't like me, and even the foreign ministers, I don't have any good reputation. But this doesn't matter. Your father favors me alone as the honor of ten thousand chariots, and he will not hesitate to suppress his own reputation. What else can I feel dissatisfied with? Even if your father does not favor me alone, this throne may not be yours."

Zhu Qizhen sighed slightly in his heart, but he also understood that what the Empress Dowager said was the truth.

If Emperor Xuanzong had not deposed the queen, once Hu gave birth to a prince, Zhu Qizhen's position as crown prince would have twists and turns. After all, the rule left by Emperor Taizu was to establish the eldest son.

But when the eldest son is not alone, it is hard to say.

But this is already an old thing, Zhu Qizhen is now the emperor.

You have to put yourself in the right position.

In many things, the emperor must maintain the Ming system most, because the Ming system protects the imperial power.

From this perspective, Zhu Qizhen could not have had a positive evaluation of the Empress Dowager's behavior back then, and could only remain silent.

The Empress Dowager suddenly said, "Is Concubine Hu dead?"

Zhu Qizhen said: "I went there last year."

In history, after the Empress Dowager Hu went there, he went there immediately.

I don’t know whether it was because the Empress Dowager Hu who loved him the most was gone and he was overly sad, or if there was any inside story.

However, in this era, Zhu Qizhen asked Concubine Hu to leave the palace and live in Shijing's mansion. He was supported by the Shunde Princess.

After leaving the palace, it would be inconvenient for the Empress Dowager to do whatever she wanted.

Concubine Hu is about the same age as the Empress Dowager and also died of illness last year.

The Empress Dowager said, "I think she is gone, and I will not be able to last for a long time."

Zhu Qizhen said: "My mother, don't have this intention, your illness will be cured."

The Empress Dowager said, "Be good at conceiving bad things. I don't think about anything at this age. There are only two things that I have been worried about. I will explain to you today."

Zhu Qizhen had a bad premonition in his heart, but what could he say at this time? He said, "My mother, do you think?"

The Empress Dowager said, "I won't talk about the prince, but I have to ask the other grandchildren on their behalf. How do you want to settle them?"

This is also the policy of the vassal kings of Zhu Qizhen in a period of freezing.

Xuanzong had a son, King Zhu.

The rest are Zhu Qizhen's sons.

In fact, shortly after the prince was born, the ministers below submitted a petition to be named king.

But Zhu Qizhen held it all down.

If you are granted a title of king, you have to build a royal palace and the matter of choosing a vassal is in front of you. However, in the current situation, there are not many places where Zhu Qizhen enfeoffed the sects.

Although there is a large area of ​​land in the northeast, I want to tell the truth.

As a father, Zhu Qizhen was reluctant to throw his son into the snow.

There were tens of millions and hundreds of millions of people in the northeast in later generations because the modern heating system was much better than this era. The Northeast of this era was still good in Liaodong, Haixi, and Jilin, which is the land that the Ming Dynasty is developing today. As for the area further north, north of Songhua River, and Heilongjiang, it is too cold.

There is a wave of opposition from top to bottom to the development of the Heilongjiang area. Jiang Yuan, who is specifically responsible for this matter, wrote several letters to discuss this matter.

The description of Heilongjiang is even more exciting.

Even in winter, someone’s family freezes to death, it’s really a place of bitter and cold.

Of course, the reason for such a thing is not only the bitter cold in the Northeast, but also the preparations for many immigrants have not been done well.

They never thought it would be so cold in the Northeast.

Zhu Qizhen had no choice but to restrict the areas developed by the Ming Dynasty, most of which were south of the Songhua River.

If the sons were sealed in the area north of the Songhua River, it would be exiled. You should know that the so-called Ningguta in the Qing Dynasty was not north of the Songhua River.

If sealed on the south side of the Songhua River, it will be too close to Beijing.

It was almost the Gyeonggi area, threatening the rule of the imperial court.

Therefore, Zhu Qizhen let go of this matter first. After all, the child is still young, and Zhu Qizhen is still in the spring and autumn, so there is no need to worry about this matter.

But at this moment, the Empress Dowager asked, and Zhu Qizhen had to say anything. He said, "My mother, please rest assured. Now Annan is not defeated? I am going to enfeoff a son to Annan, and then adopt a son to my second brother. In the future, overseas places such as the Western Regions, Tibet, and South China Sea will be the fiefs of the children."

"Please don't worry, my mother is all my own children, can I treat you badly?"

The Empress Dowager said, "How is it not considered a bad treatment? Look at the two kings you conferred. King Xiang is not adapted to the climate of Luchuan and has led troops to fight many times. He is injured and sick, so he might go to front me. And your second brother is also a desperate man, focusing on North Korea."

"I also hurt my body, and now I have no children. I want you to adopt him."

"Do you still want your son to live like this?"

Zhu Qizhen was also a little depressed. King Xiang's body might really have something to do with Luchuan. The Luchuan reported again before that Mubang chieftain made trouble again.

King Xiang led his troops to Fang Ying as his general, and led more than 10,000 troops to defeat him, and then collected several cities.

It was just that King Xiang was injured and ordered the prince to supervise the country.

It can be said that there have been no police in Yunnan in the past decade. In fact, it is because Luchuan has had such frictions and battles with the chieftains in southern Xinjiang many times.

In addition, the Yunnan Ming army supported the situation and controlled the Ming Dynasty.

From this perspective, King Xiang made an indelible contribution.

But King Hui was confused about Zhu Qizhen in North Korea.
