The winter of the sixteenth year of Yongle was extremely cold, with several heavy snowfalls, and the northwest wind blowing outside the customs never stopped. otbnkotgt Those officials who arrived in Beijing one after another, although they were not frozen to death, in fact, in order to gag their mouths, Zhu Di specially instructed the imperial grandson to mobilize enough charcoal, oil, grain, and cotton for all yamen and even officials' homes, and this generosity was only seen after the founding of the Ming Dynasty.
But it still can't stop the officials from complaining and full of bitterness But it's no wonder that officials are accustomed to the warm climate of Jiangnan.
In Jinling, even if the winter is only a little cold, as long as you wear a mink fur and hold the stove, you can still enjoy a poetic and picturesque life.
But in Beijing, where the cold wind is howling, even if the stove is burned red, people still freeze their hands and feet, and the blood in their bodies seems to be coagulated.
Those delicate ladies and misses all had chilblains, and they were so sad that they wanted to hang themselves "Hey, it's really cold this year, even old Beijing can't stand it," Yang Shiqi followed the emperor in Beijing for several winters, and the back of his hand was still frozen out of chilblains, and he cracked as soon as he wrote, and it hurt so much.
While moving his fingers carefully, he said to the sad grandson: "Besides, it's not that there is no way.
Let their family go to the kang, when the fire burns, how can it be warm?"
"Southerners can't get used to sleeping on the kang, and their nosebleeds are direct."
Zhu Zhanji is going crazy, every day there are officials who want to resign and go home because they can't stand the cold, and there are even those who are not used to eating pasta and want to resign and go home.
The emperor didn't allow it, and those people said they were sick and confined to their homes, and the basic operation of the court became a problem.
"Squeamish."
Jin Youzi snorted angrily: "They live in the Great North House, burn the big stove and say they can't stand it, how can those Mongolian princes ride horses in the ice and snow, and sleep in the yurt at night?"
"Can that be compared" Yang Rong smiled bitterly: "The race is different."
After a pause, he said, "But speaking of which, they should be about to enter Beijing."
Jin Youzi looked at the days and nodded: "It's just these two days." ” "Have you arranged all the reception and accommodation?"
Zhu Zhanji rubbed his hands by the fireside, stamped his feet and asked: "This time Zhufanyi entered Beijing, in addition to paying tribute, more importantly, congratulations to my dynasty on moving the capital, and congratulations to Your Majesty on the joy of housewarming, which is more grand than usual." ” "Your Highness, rest assured, the Honglu Temple of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Household Affairs has not done anything for a while, and is busy with this matter."
Yang Rong smiled and said: "This time, more than 70 Tibetans, such as Tatar, Warat, Duoyan, Korea, Ryukyu, Chenla, Champong, Siam, Java, and Malaga, have paid tribute to Beijing to celebrate the relocation of the capital. ” "Well, that's great."
Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "With the control of the princes, Your Majesty and I naturally have nothing to worry about." ” "Your Royal Highness," Yang Rong and Yang Shiqi exchanged glances, and said carefully and carefully: "This time all nations come to the court, the grand ceremony is all over the world, I don't know whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is present or not" Zhu Zhan basically had a smile on his face, which made this sentence disappear.
The air in the cabinet room was almost stagnant.
After a long time, His Royal Highness Taisun said expressionlessly: "Don't attend." ” "Ah" The three cabinet members, I don't know who couldn't help but exclaim.
Ignoring the attitude of His Royal Highness Taisun, Jin Youzi hurriedly asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty has a clear will?"
"Nope."
Zhu Zhanji only felt that his whole body was cold, and no matter how prosperous the brazier was, he couldn't make him feel a trace of warmth, he looked at the three scholars with a gloomy face: "The emperor's previous will, have you forgotten it?"
"Let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince close the door to greet guests, when to think clearly, when to go to see Your Majesty."
Yang Rong replied softly.
"Then has my father figured it out," Zhu Zhanji said in a cold tone.
"The door of the East Palace has been closed all day, and I haven't heard a word from His Royal Highness the Prince."
Yang Shiqi said softly.
"Then the princes asked, is it superfluous" Zhu Zhanji glanced at the three of them coldly, and after speaking, he pursed his lips tightly, obviously not wanting to talk about this topic anymore.
Yang Rong and the three exchanged glances again, and Jin Youzi said softly: "Your Highness, the emperor's will was a month ago, and now that hundreds of officials have entered Beijing, all countries have come to the court, and the capital is about to be moved, which no one can change."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must also know."
Zhu Zhanji nodded patiently, and listened to him continue: "The emperor attaches so much importance to this grand ceremony, and he must also hope to be flawless, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is absent, it is really not perfect." ” "Not bad."
Yang Rong nodded and said: "This is a good time to reconcile the emperor's crown prince, father and son, Your Royal Highness, as the grandson of the emperor and the son of the crown prince, you should seize this opportunity to set an example for the children and grandchildren of the world."
"Your Highness," Seeing that Zhu Zhanji's expression was relaxed, Yang Shiqi hit the railway while it was hot: "I'm afraid that the emperor is also waiting for you to make peace."
Yang Shiqi's words, like a heavy hammer, smashed into Zhu Zhanji's heart, making him finally change his face.
He knows his own family affairs, in the past few days, the imperial grandfather has asked about the prince several times, but he has been perfunctory, and now let Yang Shiqi a little, how can he not understand what the imperial grandfather means "Okay," Zhu Zhanji's face changed for a while, and after a while, Fang nodded and gritted his teeth: "I'll try it" "Your Highness Shengming" The three scholars were overjoyed and stood up together to salute Zhu Zhanji.
Zhu Zhanji barely squeezed out a smile, nodded, and left the cabinet under the pretext that there was still something to do.
The three scholars sent His Royal Highness the Grand Sun out.
After turning back, the three of them shook their heads again and again, and Yang Rong said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness Taisun has changed" "Hey, the emperor shouldn't let him taste power so early," Yang Shiqi said with a worried face: "He shirked it so much this time, just because he was worried that the prince would lose the power he had when he came back." ” "Your Highness is too ridiculous," Jin Youzi laughed and said, "Is it possible that Your Majesty can keep His Royal Highness the Crown Prince locked up sooner or later, sooner or later, he must be released." ” "yes."
Yang Shiqi nodded and said: "If His Royal Highness the Prince can persuade the emperor to release the crown prince this time, then there is still a chance to bridge the misunderstanding between the two princes."
"I hope His Royal Highness can understand the painstaking work of our waiting."
Yang Rong sighed lightly, and the other two scholars also thought so.
Zhu Zhanji did not go to face the saint immediately, but went back to his grandson's mansion, and considered a whole night Zhu Zhanji was in the capital, but he did not have his own mansion, and before the prince came to Beijing, he lived in the prince's mansion.
As soon as the prince came to Beijing, there was a fierce conflict between father and son, and Zhu Zhanji had nowhere to go.
Zhu Di knew about it, and immediately asked people to give Zhu Zhanji the palace originally prepared for the King of Han as the Taisun Mansion.

This original Han Palace, on the West Chang'an Street, across the Chang'an Gate and the Prince's Mansion is opposite, equally divided, the emperor gave it to the grandson, I am afraid it also has the meaning of letting it balance the prince.
Zhu Zhanji didn't care so much, he simply asked people to clean up and live in for a few days, and from then on, he was officially separated from the prince.
At present, the grandson has not yet married, and there are not enough eunuchs and palace maids in the palace, and the huge palace inevitably looks deserted.
Zhu Zhanji was bored alone, and wanted to call Wang Xian to accompany him, but when he thought that as soon as he opened his mouth, he would persuade himself to reconcile with his father, and his heart became tired.
A person was drinking alcohol in the room, and Chen Wu, the eunuch in charge of the Taisun Mansion, came to report that there were two brothers, Taichang Shaoqing Jian Ying and Zhongshu Jian Fang, who came to visit.
When Zhu Zhanji heard this, there was a smile on his face, and he hurriedly set up a drink, and invited these two brothers in, these two brothers are the sons of Shangshu Jianyi of the Ministry of Rites, although the official position is not high, but they have a wide range of contacts in the court, and they are all very calculating.
Since Zhu Zhanji took office, the two have actively moved closer to him, and His Royal Highness the Taisun has seen that they are very useful, so he has also warmly accepted them, and now they are in a hot fight.
After the two of them greeted each other, Zhu Zhanji asked them to hurry up and take the cup himself, and said with a smile: "Drink some soju to warm up."
The two thanked His Royal Highness, drank three rounds, and cooked five flavors, and Zhu Zhanji asked them what they came from The brothers looked at each other and smiled, and Jian Ying said: "Your Highness, my brothers and I were chatting at home, and suddenly thought of an idea, which seemed to make His Highness have a long face at the emperor's place." ” "Oh, let's hear it" "Xiangrui."
Jian Ying said with a smile: "Now that all countries are coming to the dynasty and moving their capitals, the heavens are sensing, how can there be no auspicious rain?"
"God doesn't bring down auspiciousness, but it's not something we can manage."
Zhu Zhanji smiled bitterly: "Come on, drink."
I couldn't help but say with disdain in my heart, and I made up my mind.
"God doesn't descend, we can help descend," Jian Fang said with a smile.
"You have to be lonely and fake auspicious" Zhu Zhanji frowned, he is the grandson, and he naturally believes in the destiny of heaven.
Now that someone has asked him to fake the will of heaven, he will inevitably murmur a little in his heart.
"What's the difference between real and fake" Jian Ying smiled and said: "As long as the emperor believes it and the people believe it, who dares to talk nonsense without opening their eyes" "This" Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but nod slowly, he knew that if he came up with something auspicious at this time, the imperial grandfather would definitely not refuse.
His old man hopes that God will help prove the correctness of moving the capital, so as to block the mouths of the people, but the grandchildren are always undignified to do this kind of fraudulent thing.
If it is exposed, it will be even more embarrassing.
"Your Highness rest assured," Jian Fang knew his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Without your participation, we can get this matter done, and you can report it to the heavens when the time comes." ” Zhu Zhanji pondered for a while, then made up his mind and said, "Tell me what you plan to do."
"Okay."
The Jian brothers nodded excitedly, and then drank the wine, and planned to come with His Royal Highness Taisun.
Zhu Zhanji listened with a frown while drinking, and before he knew it, it was the second half of the night.
The three of them drank a little high, and the family helped the two brothers away, while Zhu Zhanji staggered to the bed and fell asleep in a daze.
I slept until dawn the next day, and as soon as I opened my eyes, Chen Wu told him: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has entered the palace" Zhu Zhanji sat up immediately, held his head that was about to explode, and asked in a lost voice: "How did you do it":
