After staying at the inn in Fengjiazhuang for one night, Sun Yixiang and Huang Donglai hurriedly set off and continued to the southwest.The next day, they came from Yanzhou to Jining.Jining this place, in the first year of Taizu was still a "house", Yanzhou was subordinate to Jining Mansion at that time, but later Taizu sealed his tenth son as the king of Lu, the domain of Yanzhou, so Yanzhou was promoted to a house, and Jining was reduced to a state.Anyway, these two places are next to each other, and whoever is administratively can set anyone, so you can understand that we won't chew much if you flip through the map.Here we still have to talk about this "King Lu".Don't get me wrong, the King of Lu who Taizu personally sealed is the same as the King Lu who we want to mention right now is still alive......
It's not one person, these two people are more than 300 years apart."
Lu" is a title.The emperor is a vassal king, basically according to the place name to seal (most dynasties are like this, there are exceptions, for example, the Song Dynasty is named with auspicious characters), the fief in Shandong is called King Lu, in Sichuan is called King Shu, in Liaodong is called King Liao; There are also those that are directly named after the names of the counties, such as the King of Huainan and the King of Chenliu......
The title of this prince can be hereditary, and it is generally inherited by the eldest son.That is to say, King Lu's son is still called King Lu after succeeding him, as long as this incense has not been broken, then "King Lu" has always existed, but the person who called this title may have changed dozens of people.So what's going on with names like "King Lu Huang" and "King Lu Ai"?
Those are all names that only the dead have, and the word in their names is "nickname", and the nickname is summarized by others after the death of the person according to the virtue or encounter of this person's life......
These words were added after death, not when they were alive.If you dare to call a living prince King Lu Yang, then he will most likely kill you on the spot.To sum up, King Lu in our story does not have the word in the middle, and his son Zhu Ji does not have it.If Zhu Ji can officially succeed to the throne of King Lu in the future, then he may really be able to get the word "waste" after his death, but whether this "if" will happen, I believe that all the officials also know it in their hearts......
Let's go back to this King Lu, this person's surname is Zhu Minghua, he is seventy-three this year, according to the saying, he is "living on the kaner".Seeing this, someone may want to say again, why are all the descendants of the old Zhu family in your book a single name?
This is not in line with the etiquette system of the Ming Dynasty.I have to reply to you, I am writing about a parallel universe, not the Ming that we are familiar with.I know that in the Ming Dynasty, only Zhu Yuanzhang's own twenty-six sons are single names, and all of them are next to wooden characters; I also know that the Lu Wangjia should be named according to the 20 characters of "Zhaotaiyang is healthy, Guanyi Shou is Hong, Zhenju Xi and Da, Kangzhuang meets Benning", combined with the side words of "fire, earth, gold, water and wood".But every time I write an old Zhu family, I have to look up the name of the character......
Isn't that too much of a hassle?
I'm not a prince, what the hell am I doing?
Therefore, the rules of the "two crosses" in our book do not exist, and the meaning of the rules of fire, earth, gold, water and wood can be retained.Straight to the point......
Zhu Hua, the king of Lu, and the current emperor Zhu Zhu are the same generation, but the age difference is more than 20 years.Zhu Huan is a person who is alive in this life - he has a good life, his eldest son.Prince Da Shu's rule of recognizing his concubine or not recognizing his concubine made the fate of his concubine and his concubine very different.No matter how unmotivated Zhu Hua is, he doesn't have to worry about his livelihood in the future, so he will ...... in this life Except for eating, drinking, and having fun, there was almost nothing else to do.Of course, you can't say how unbearable he is, if you change it......
If you knew that you were financially free for the rest of your life, would you still work hard?
I won't anyway.Because I'm like everyone here, even if I don't have financial freedom right now, I'm not working very hard.also said that Zhu Hua, he has been in a mess for more than 70 years, and if there is anything that has worried him over the years, it should be - before the age of forty-eight, he only had a daughter and no "son".This matter is a big deal in the prince's family, because the position of the prince is passed on to men and not to women, even if the daughter of the heir can only inherit part of his fief and the title of a county lord, and if there is no son to inherit the remaining fief and the palace, the court will take it back.However, Zhu Huan married so many wives and concubines, but it was so coincidental that they all gave birth to daughters.And because Zhu Hua began to indulge in alcohol at a very young age, after the age of forty, he completely lost his fertility, according to our current words, it is infertile.So, during the period between Zhu Hua and his forty and forty-six years old, none of his wives conceived any more children, which needless to say Zhu Hua should also understand......
It must have been his own fault.Unexpectedly, when Zhu Huan was forty-seven years old, his third aunt, who was more than ten years younger than him, actually successfully conceived again.How did you get pregnant?
Then you can refer to the traditional cross talk "Tethered Doll".I won't go into detail about this kind of pickled traditional art passages here, because our book is obviously in a more pickled state.What about Zhu Hua...... is not stupid, he naturally suspects that this child is not his own.However, firstly, he had no evidence to prove that the third aunt was too adulterous with outsiders, and secondly, people at that time did not have a full understanding of infertility, so they still had some luck.Therefore, he pretended to be confused about this matter for the time being......
Until the day when the third aunt gave birth, Zhu Hua stood outside the room and waited for a few hours, and finally waited for a cry.The midwife took the baby out and showed him, hey, boy, and he did look a little like him.Zhu Hua pondered: Is it really that God has eyes to let me get old (at that time, people had a short lifespan, and they were already called old husbands at the age of forty-eight) to have children?
That day, after he handed over the child to the nurse, he immediately ordered someone to strangle the third aunt to death and bury it quietly.What kind of logic is this?
It's very simple: he has an aunt's wife, and he won't feel so distressed if he kills one, but on the contrary, if he lets this woman who may have cuckolded him live, it will make him continue to be suspicious, entangled, and aggrieved......
Therefore, even if he can't confirm whether the third aunt has stolen someone, he would rather kill by mistake than misplace.As for children, he is a different standard......
Although he is also not sure whether the child is his, he can keep the child first, and wait for the baby to grow up and see that the bottom image is not like himself, and then make a decision, to avoid wrongful killing as much as possible.Double standard?
Vicious?
Is it cold?
That's right, but this is real human nature, and in a certain era and a certain environment, you may have the same logic as him.To make a long story short, in the blink of an eye, seven years have passed.The baby boy born to the third aunt back then, that is, Zhu Ji, has been fostered by Zhu Huan's wife, almost without leaving the house, and there is no one born, and the palace is silent about the existence of this child.This...... is ready for two hands: first, if Zhu Ji really looks like Zhu Hua when he grows up, then he will logically announce that this is the eldest son born to his wife; Second, if Zhu Ji grows up and doesn't look like Zhu Hua at all, then he will be slaughtered, and there has never been such a person in the palace.Zhu Huan's luck is good, although he and Zhu Huan are not related at all, he inexplicably looks very similar to Zhu Huan when he was a child.Zhu Hua watched Zhu Ji grow up year by year, and he really looked like himself, and gradually believed that this was really his son.At this time, he felt so sorry for the third aunt back then, of course......
It's just a loss.All in all, it wasn't until Zhu Ji was seven years old that Zhu Hua suddenly officially announced that he had a son, and he was already seven years old, and said that he was born to his wife.He also thought about it, and if the court asked him why he didn't report when he gave birth to a son, he pretended to be confused, saying that he forgot about it when he was old.But can the court not know about his little sassy operation?
Which palace does not have a fine work placed by the imperial court?
What about when people are paid for nothing?
However, it is precisely because of knowing the details of this child that the court will turn a blind eye; Because the person in charge of monitoring also feels that this child does look like Zhu Huan, and it should be his biological son, according to the principle of "no heirs", no matter which mother gave birth to it, Zhu Huan's son is always him, and there is no need to turn over the matter of killing the third aunt back then.In this way, at the age of seven, Zhu Ji finally had a legal identity, and reported to the imperial court and confirmed the name "Zhu Ji".Of course......
Zhu Ji himself was still young at the time, he didn't know about the chickens and dogs of the previous generation, and he always thought that his mother was Zhu Hua's main room.Time flies, time shuttles.In a blink of an eye, this little prince has grown up, and Zhu Hua is also dying.Although Zhu Huan has not died, the real power of the Lu Wangfu has already fallen into the hands of Zhu Ji.The sphere of influence of the Lu Wangfu has also increased over the years, and according to our geographical understanding today, it has expanded to the entire Jining area and the surrounding areas.Among all the surviving princes of Dahui, this King Lu can be regarded as a very powerful one, and Zhu Ji, as the actual ruler of the Lu Palace, is undoubtedly calling for wind and rain and doing whatever he wants in this Jining territory.The Fire Lotus Sect, with him as its backer, is also rampant in the countryside and lawless.No, right in front of him, when Sun Yihe and Huang Donglai lined up to enter the city gate, they met the Fire Lotus Sect's "set card".These Fire Lotus Sect members, dressed in black power suits, embroidered with a Fire Lotus on their chests and backs, with either knives or swords on their bodies, walked with most of their nostrils facing the sky, swaggering, and arrogant......
If you don't say that they are religious, they think they are bandits who have subdued unity.Today they set up a card here, using the rhetoric - last night there was a thief who broke into the palace at night, with bad intentions, fortunately the palace has a fire lotus immortal in the town, the thief just entered the courtyard and was intimidated by the heavenly power of the great immortal, vomited blood three liters, hugged his head and fled, the great immortal in order to protect the safety of the palace, did not chase the thief, but the thief must not have escaped from the Jining area, so, from now on, the Fire Lotus Sect will search the travelers in various city gates, in order to catch the thief, if there is any disobedience, according to the traitor and the same party."
Come on, come on, hurry up, hurry up!
Don't grind, show everything in the baggage yourself, don't let me do it!
”But it was said that the seven or eight Fire Lotus disciples at the city gate, the one at the head, with a big knife out of the sheath in their hands, stood under the city gate, shouting five and six, and constantly signaling the people behind to follow.This group of people said that they were "searching for thieves", and they were holding a portrait in their hands in a decent manner, but in fact they didn't think about catching thieves at all, but they were just "plucking the goose" here to search for oil and water.Those who have money scrape some silver, those who don't have money scrape something, and when they meet a big girl and little daughter-in-law who have a bit of beauty, they have to use their hands and feet......
If anyone "doesn't cooperate" with them, they will even bluff and drink, smoke the guys and surround them, saying that you are a fellow thief, who will dare to resist?
The people in the vicinity also know what happens if they offend the Fire Lotus Sect, they have long been bullied by this gang of goods on weekdays, and they dare not speak out, this "toll", they will endure it."
Hey!
The latter two, say you!
What the hell are you two doing?
Come here!
”After waiting in line for a long time, I finally ......
It's Sun Yiharmonic and Huang Dong's turn.The two of them obviously can't easily accept the body search, because these two goods have too many unsightly things on their bodies and in their baggage......
Leaving aside the bunch of Taoist things, the point is that they still have a lot of gold, silver, silver tickets, poisons, hidden weapons, and lime powder in their baggage......
If these things are searched out, the other side can be shocked, if all of them are found, then the people must directly call for reinforcements to arrest them.So Sun and Huang were queuing, observing, and muttering quietly......
It's a discussion about how to pass through this gate."
Humph!"
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Sure enough, Sun Yihuan faced the Fire Lotus Sect's question, and put on a posture completely different from ordinary people, "How old are you, uncle, what are we talking about, do you need to report to a minion like you?"
”"Huh?"
The brother with the knife was stunned.He had been standing at this gate for a long time, and no one dared to talk to him like this, even those dignitaries who entered the city in a sedan chair had ordered their subordinates to respectfully offer them silver and say a few good words, and then they were allowed to leave."
Hey~ You're crazy, aren't you?"
The Fire Lotus Sect with the knife raised the knife as he spoke, and shook it in front of Sun and Huang, "Do you know who you're talking to?"
”"I don't know, but you can tell me."
Huang Donglai choked back.When they said these two words, the surrounding Fire Lotus Sect disciples also felt that the situation was a little wrong, so they all gathered around."
Huh......
Hahahaha!
”The little leader with the knife saw that his accomplices had come over, and he was even more bold, he sneered for a while, and said to Shuanghe, "Okay, Xiao Smash, I'll let you die today, grandpa, you two can stand firm for me!"
”As he spoke, he straightened his waist, slapped the bridge of his nose, raised his chin, and proudly continued, "Uncle, I am the fifth seat of the Fire Lotus Sect's Qinglian Hall - 'Immortal Sword' Peng Er!"
