After another month, all the vassals from all over the Ming Dynasty entered Beijing.
And this time I entered Beijing, because there were too many vassal princes in Ming Dynasty, so there are restrictions. You must be a prince above the county prince to enter the capital, but even so, there are a full 120!
Therefore, all 120 vassal kings have entered Beijing. This is the most complete collection of vassal princes in the past 100 years, and so many vassal princes are all relatives, and they are all descendants and grandchildren of Zhu Chongba. , And there was no conflict of interest between them, so after seeing each other, they were happy.
However, these vassals coming later do not know what the so-called sudden entry into Beijing this time is? Then Fu Wang revealed something vaguely, that is, they are collectively entering Beijing to report to the imperial court, and they must take down Yang and shave their heads. These vassal kings also responded in a sudden!
For these heavenly armors, Yang Shanlu is close to those untouchables, but he specifically fights against them like dragon sons and grandchildren and collects the land! Accept the shop! Specially against them, so it is their worst enemy! It must be eradicated!
In this case, these vassal kings also agreed that as long as they meet the emperor, they will attack together! Gather the power of all the kings to defeat Yang and shave his head! Restoring the universe!
After such a guarantee, Fuwang and others are very happy, haha, the will of a hundred and twenty feudal lords has been gathered, and it will be up to you what to do at that time!
Then just when they were confident, the next day, Emperor Chongzhen made a decree. Before the formal meeting, all the princes would pay respects to the Taimiao.
These vassal kings fully agree with this, and this is what it should be... Like these vassals, what do they rely on for living a comfortable life of parasites and eating for free all day long? But relying on this identity! It's just a character lying on the ancestor's book of merit! Therefore, it is totally right to pay homage to the ancestors of the old Zhu family.
It was a very solemn event to worship the Taimiao. The officials of the clan palace had prepared in advance, and then on this day in May of the 15th year of Chongzhen, the Emperor Chongzhen led a total of 120 feudal kings. Worship Taimiao together!
As for the theme of worshipping the Taimiao Temple... worshiping the ancestors and ancestors, hoping that they can bless the country of Daming forever!
Taimiao is also located in the Forbidden City. It is the family temple for the emperor of the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute to his ancestors.
For example, the nave is nine-jawed wide (62 meters long) and four-jawed deep (20 meters wide). It is the nine main halls on top of the yellow glazed tiled hall. The triple platform base outside the hall is surrounded by white marble fences, and the front of the platform imperial road is one by one. Inscribed with dragon stone, lion stone and sea beast stone.
The hall is dedicated to the statue of Emperor Ming Taizu. There are offerings, incense tables, and bronze furnaces in front of the seat. The rest of the ancestors are for other rooms.
Then after the emperor Chongzhen led the crowd to arrive, he held the sandalwood and worshipped first, then the next 120 feudal kings took turns to worship according to their status.
Then after the start, it was still in an orderly manner at the beginning, but when it was the turn of the Fu King to worship, it turned out to be a sudden change!
I only heard a loud shout in the middle of the hall: "You unfilial descendant, let's see what you have become! You still have the face to worship your ancestors?"
"Ah!" The feudal lords present were shocked when they heard this voice, and what shocked them even more was the vision that appeared in front of them... I saw a light and shadow in the midair of the main hall. Portrait!
And this person has a horse face and is wearing a dragon robe! Judging by his appearance and dressing, it is clear that he is Taizu Appearance!
"Ah! Grandpa Taizu has revealed his spirit!" After seeing this image, these feudal kings exclaimed! Then they knelt down and bowed their heads!
Because this figure stood in the air, and his appearance was exactly the same as the one on the idol, what was it if it wasn't Taizu Appearance!
Moreover, in this era, the theory of ghosts and gods still dominates, or most people believe that there are ghosts and gods in this world. Of course, no one has ever seen them with their own eyes, but now? But it really appeared before their eyes!
On the contrary, Emperor Chongzhen, who was kneeling in the front, looked at the vivid grandfather Taizu in front of him, but he was a little nervous while happy... But in the face of such a heavenly vision, no one noticed him at all.
Of course, among so many vassals present, it is inevitable that a small number of people are suspicious... Although this light and shadow looks like Taizu, is it true that there are ghosts and gods
It's just the next scene, but their doubts have disappeared.
After Zhu Yuanzhang appeared, he knelt in front of him and screamed at Fu Wang, who was completely paralyzed on the ground in fright: "You bastard! Look at what you have become! I, Zhu Yuanzhang, the first life, how could I have You are such a shameless offspring!"
"Even widows still know that you came to Beijing this time to sue the imperial court! But you are as fat as a pig, and you don’t know how much you’ve spent! You still have a face to sue the imperial court. Do everything you do will plunge Daming into an abyss that cannot be recovered?"
"Ah, Taizu Grandpa Rong Zi, my great-great-grandson still leads a very frugal life..." Hearing that the hat was too big, Fu Wang tremblingly defended.
Of course, in his image, this excuse is unconvincing. He weighs five or six hundred jins, and he is too fat to walk. Even Shangxiang needs the support of two other vassals, so this image says that he has lived. The days are very simple, thick tea and light rice, or compared with those scrawny refugees...
So the Fu Wang hadn’t finished speaking, he was already interrupted by Zhu Yuanzhang: "Shut up! Do you dare to quibble in front of the widow? The widow came to ask you, you said you have a meal, but do you want to eat a meal? One hundred taels of silver! Including your treasury, is there six million taels of silver!"
"Ah!" Now Fu Wang was dumbfounded, how could he even know such secret things in his heart? Then next, he couldn't wait to slap himself! It's said that Grandpa Taizu's spirit has appeared, and the gods are present, of course, they know everything! I hate him for not reacting to it for a while, and want to deceive him, isn't this looking for death by himself
Then why is Fu Wang so scared? Because one hundred taels of silver is eaten for a meal, it is already extremely luxurious! You must know that at current prices, one hundred taels is enough for a middle-class family to live comfortably for five years and eat nearly two thousand meals! But now? It's just the cost of a meal for King Fu.
As for how to eat so much, it is also very simple. For example, Luoyang, Henan is rich in carp, and Fu Wang also loves to eat it. Of course, as a son of a dragon, his eating method is of course different from ordinary people. He does not eat fish, but specializes. Eat the pair of beards around the carp's mouth, use this to cook, and nicknamed it "Long-Dragon's Whisk".
Then, to make such a pot of "longtail beard", you need hundreds of big carps, so it is not surprising that you can eat one hundred taels in one meal.
It's just that no one cares about him because he is usually so luxurious, but what about now? This one was so scared that he collapsed directly on the ground, shivering...
But Zhu Yuanzhang has no interest in training him anymore. After all, what needs to be solved today, but all the feudal kings...
So after taking a look at him in disgust, Zhu Yuanzhang then looked at the king of Shu who was in the second row and roared loudly: "And you, you are also an unfilial thing! As the king of Shu, I am in Sichuan, I don’t know what it is. People seek profit, but they just blindly invade the people’s land! Now the entire land in Chengdu has almost become your family, right? It’s even like this, you are still invading the land!"
"So the widow was watching from the sky, and I wanted to come down and ask you a long time ago... Are you going to drive all the people back, light you up, and overthrow Daming by the way, are you happy?"
"Grandpa Taizu forgive me, my great-great-grandson knows wrong!" Then such a severe reprimand scared the king of Shu, and he almost lost his soul!
(Because it has been three hundred years since the founding of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang and these descendants are too far apart in generations, and it is difficult to verify, so they will always be replaced by great-grandchildren)
It’s just that Zhu Yuanzhang didn’t listen to his excuses at all. Instead, he continued to roar, “You worms! Do you know why the widow wants to be in the lower realm this time? It’s because the widow already knows that if you are so stubborn, let’s go. In two years, Daming will perish the country! Including you dragon sons and grandchildren, all will be finished by then! That's why the widow came down!"
Oh, after these feudal kings heard this, they were still a little bit happy. It turns out that Taizu and his old man still care about us. Only then is the lower realm to remind us...
But then this Taizu was very disappointed and said: "It's just that your performance has made the widow too disappointed! In addition, you are still preparing to sue the imperial court? To tell you the truth, widow sees clearly in the sky, Yang Shanlu is a good official ! He is a big upright official! So even with yours, you dare to oppose him?"
"Even to tell the truth, if you weren't all descendants of the widow, the widow now casts spells to kill all of you assholes!"
"Ah, grandpa Taizu is forgiving! My great-great-grandchildren don't dare anymore!" After hearing this, the more than 100 feudal kings present were crying and begging for mercy!
It was Emperor Chongzhen. Although he was also kneeling on the ground, his face showed an imperceptible smile, haha... I don’t know, I was shocked, the effect was really good!
After training these feudal kings hard, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Emperor Chongzhen who was kneeling in the front row. Of course, looking at this very diligent emperor, his expression was relieved a lot, and Zhu Yuanzhang said softly: "It’s your grandson, you’re a good emperor, diligent and honest, and not good at female sex. But you also have a shortcoming. You are too lenient with your uncles and uncles, so that they all become I don’t know what to do now."
"Yes, yes! Sun'er knows it was wrong, and he will definitely supervise it strictly in the future—" Emperor Chongzhen kowtows his head quickly and pretendingly, expressing that he has recognized the error.
Then, after all this training, the Ming Taizu made the final concluding speech, and it was also a speech to these princes who decided their lives. (End of this chapter)
