The next morning, the officials went to court as usual. Zhu Yunwen came to the main hall early and stood in the position that originally belonged to Crown Prince Zhu Biao.
"Your Majesty has arrived. All officials welcome you!"
Following the eunuch's loud shout, all the officials cheered up to welcome Zhu Yuanzhang's arrival.
"Long live our emperor!"
All the officials saluted Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang said,
"Everyone, please rise."
Then, Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Yunwen standing there with a solemn expression.
After yesterday's incident, Zhu Yuanzhang already felt disgusted with Zhu Yunwen.
Especially after seeing Zhu Gaoye again, he couldn't help but compare the two of them together.
In comparison, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that Zhu Yunwen was even more hateful and hypocritical.
He had actually thought of making Zhu Yunwen the emperor's grandson. He was really blind.
After that, the officials reported things as usual, but they were all things that did not hurt or itch. Zhu Yuanzhang did not take it to heart.
Seeing that the officials had nothing to report, the chief eunuch was ready to step forward and announce his withdrawal.
At this moment, a civil official stood out and said to Zhu Yuanzhang,"
"Your Majesty, I have something to report!”
It was still a familiar face, still an official of Zhu Yunwen's faction.
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the official and said,"
"What do you have to report, dear minister?"
At the same time, everyone was in high spirits. Yesterday, these people had already failed to ask Zhu Yunwen to be the emperor's grandson. What were they doing now?
"Your Majesty, I request that the eldest grandson of the emperor, Zhu Yunwen, be the eldest grandson of the emperor to strengthen the foundation of the country and appease the hopes of the people!”
All the officials in the court couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air when they heard this. They had thought that these people would restrain themselves a little after the emperor had clearly rejected them yesterday.
Unexpectedly, these people did not know what it meant to restrain themselves. Today, they brought up this matter again in the morning court. What were these people trying to do?
Meanwhile, Zhu Yunwen stood there like an old monk in meditation. His eyes looked down at his nose, his nose looked down at his mouth, and his mouth looked down at his heart, as if all of this had nothing to do with him.
In fact, he was deeply moved. He didn't expect these masters to stand up for him regardless of everything. He also secretly made up his mind that when he inherited the throne, he would definitely not let the monarch and his subjects down.
Zhu Yuanzhang narrowed his eyes slightly. These people actually dared to stand up at this time. Did they really think that he was a pushover?
The officials who went to Zhu Yunwen's residence yesterday also stood up and said to Zhu Yuanzhang,
"I request Your Majesty to appoint His Highness the eldest grandson of the emperor as the eldest grandson of the emperor to consolidate the foundation of the country!”
Those officials who were still unaware of the situation were also stunned when they saw this scene. Why didn't anyone inform us?
Could it be that these people had made such a decision on the spur of the moment?
With the principle of helping each other, these people also stood up and advised Zhu Yuanzhang to make Zhu Yunwen the emperor's grandson.
Looking at the group of officials who stepped forward one after another, the civil and military officials in the court had already turned from surprise to shock.
The atmosphere in the royal court also began to become strange. The huge hall became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Everyone could only hear their own heartbeats.
The observant officials around these people had already started to subconsciously keep a distance from them.
He sneered in his heart. Do you think you can force the emperor to submit just because you have more people?
Who was this? This was Emperor Hongwu of Great Ming!
He had fought his way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood!
Who do you think you are? What are you daydreaming about? Since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, how many officials have you killed?
Had the emperor ever been soft-hearted? Aren't those lessons enough to wake you up?
He actually dared to stand out and speak up despite the fact that His Majesty had clearly rejected this matter.
"Let alone you people, even if all the civil and military officials of the court speak together today, as long as it concerns the Ming Dynasty and the state..."
Emperor Hongwu would never show any mercy. They were just some officials. Three-legged toads were hard to find, but two-legged officials were everywhere.
He could just look for them after killing them all!
At the thought of this, the official couldn't help but break out in cold sweat. He subconsciously took a few steps back, afraid that the Emperor would flip out and the blood of these people would splash on him.
You bunch of reckless people are not worthy of threatening His Majesty. You might as well find a place to hang yourself and avoid bringing disaster to your family.
The thoughts of these officials who stood out were very simple. They were thinking for the Ming court and the Zhu family's empire, not for their own selfishness.
His Majesty the Emperor had no reason to kill him. At most, he would punish his salary, punish his official position, and then ground him. If it really couldn't work, he would send him out. But so what?
As long as he could leave a good impression on the eldest grandson, as long as he could force the emperor to make the eldest grandson the great-grandson, everything would be worth it!
It was nothing more than suffering for a few years. When the emperor passed away and the eldest grandson of the emperor ascended the throne, the suffering he suffered would be repaid ten times or a hundred times.
Thinking of this, the faces of these officials became even more determined, as if they would not give up until the Emperor made Zhu Yunwen the Emperor's grandson.
When Zhu Yunwen saw so many people stand up, she finally couldn't help but be moved.
These generous and righteous masters, for him, for the sake of the Great Ming Empire, actually did not hesitate to risk their lives and offend the heavens. After he inherited the throne in the future, he must repay these masters well!
Then, Zhu Yunwen remembered the warnings of the masters yesterday and quickly restrained the expression on her face, once again returning to the calm state of an old well.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang had already seen all of this and turned his attention back to the officials.
Dragons have reverse scales, and they will die if they touch them!
And the Ming Dynasty was Zhu Yuanzhang's reverse scale. Not to mention these officials, even his own sons could not have any improper thoughts!
It seemed that Zhu Gaoye was right. These people were not thinking about the Ming Dynasty at all. They were only thinking about their own interests!
Zhu Yuanzhang restrained the expression on his face and looked meaningfully at the officials who stood out.
"Are you trying to force me to abdicate?"
A soft voice rang out in the quiet imperial court. The moment these words came out, all the civil and military officials in the court instantly felt their scalps go numb!
