Zhu Di was very satisfied and proud of this. This was his first personal expedition after becoming the emperor, and it ended with an absolute crushing victory, which perfectly explained what it means to be able to draw a pen to secure the world, and to be incompetent to determine the world immediately.
So with a swipe of the pen, it was announced to the world and the whole country celebrated.
All the soldiers who participated in the Northern Expedition, those who were alive were promoted to rank, and rewarded with good farmland and cloth, and those who died were granted titles, burials, and family members were treated generously.
At the same time, in order to celebrate the whole country, Zhu Di specially set up the Kai En Ke, and all students can take the imperial examination this year.
The imperial examinations are generally held every three years, and those who fail can take the exam again after three years.
Enke is an additional test, which can be taken at any time without waiting.
That's why when Enke came out, all the students all over the world were grateful and overjoyed. Opening Enke means that they can save three years of waiting. They really want to thank their ancestors.
Moreover, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was the first time to open Enke, which is really a great honor for scholars.
In this regard, the chief minister of the cabinet was the first to come out to pay homage: "On behalf of the students of the world, thank you for your majesty's long grace, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."
Seeing this, the other civil officials came out one after another, knelt down on the ground in unison, and shouted, long live, long live, my emperor.
Zhu Di sat on a high seat, showing an expression of enjoyment.
Now that I know that my emperor is long live, have you forgotten that before I was going to fight, how did you live and die, and even wiped your neck with a knife?
But this time the flag was won, and Zhu Di was in a good mood, so he didn't care about them.
So he waved his hand: "All my lovers, get up."
"I have one more thing that I want to tell all my lovers."
Does His Majesty have something to tell them?
A group of people looked puzzled. Didn't His Majesty always make a decision and then inform them, or summon them to solve any problems?
Listening to this tone now, it seems that he wants to share some joy with them.
This is not like His Majesty's style, His Majesty's joy is not something they can share.
"What's the matter, Your Majesty?" Only Yang Shiqi dared to ask this question, and only he could ask it.
Others are not qualified enough to gossip about the emperor, they will lose their heads.
Zhu Di said happily: "I have a son among the people, and I want him to recognize his ancestors."
"..."
son?
In folk?
His Majesty's?
As soon as these words came out, the entire Fengtian Hall was so quiet that you could hear your breath, everyone had exclamation marks on their faces, and their eyes changed from disbelief, to shock, to panic, and finally to no, rejection.
Three seconds later, Fengtian Temple suddenly exploded with a "boom".
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible."
"Yes, Your Majesty, if this matter gets out, it will damage His Majesty's sageness."
"Think twice, Your Majesty."
All the ministers wailed and yelled, kneeling and kowtowing, crying so much that they wanted to cry back His Majesty's idea.
Not to mention that His Majesty suddenly had an extra son, how the people should guess and arrange His Majesty, just say that the current court has long been divided into the princeling party and the Hanwang party.
Everyone is evenly matched, there are comings and goings, and no one loses to anyone.
If a prince who came back from the people was inserted suddenly, it would definitely affect the status of the prince and the King of Han.
Moreover, seeing His Majesty's caring tone, he must be very fond of the illegitimate son of the people. In this way, the crown prince and the King of Han may lose their status at any time.
Maybe in the end even the crown prince will fall into the hands of this unknown prince, how can this happen.
In the future, no matter whether it is the crown prince or the King of Han who wins the throne, at least they are all descendants of empresses, and their identities are clear.
But if it was snatched by a folk, someone of unknown origin, who was not a direct descendant, probably no one would be convinced.
Zhu Di thought they would object, but he didn't expect them to object so violently.
And it's a concerted effort. Whether it's a civil servant or a military officer, they all share the same hatred and disagree with each other.
In the future, if anyone says that our officials are not united, I will give them a hard look.
Zhu Di's original happy mood was wiped out by their mourning, and he said with a dark face, "I'm here to inform you, not to discuss with you. This is my family matter, and I make up my own mind."
If I need your consent to recognize a son, then what kind of emperor should I be?
Being a rural farmer is not so aggrieved.
"Your Majesty, you are the king of a country, and your family affairs are also related to the common people in the world. It is no longer your family affairs alone, but the family affairs of the whole world."
Yang Shiqi really dared to say anything, wishing he could take the people from all over the world and hit him in the face.
Zhu Di stared at Yang Shiqi, who was not afraid of death, with a fierce look in his eyes.
It's you Yang Shiqi again. You were the loudest person who opposed my Northern Expedition back then. To threaten me, you even wanted to wipe your neck in front of me.
What's the matter, if I am determined to bring Lu Lin back this time, will you still wipe your neck?
"If I recognize my son, what does it have to do with the people of the world? Don't the people recognize my son?"
They recognize it, but I don't recognize it?
Then what do I do as the emperor?In order to let them point fingers, I am not allowed to recognize my son?
"Your Majesty, if you recognize this son, where do you put the Empress?" Seeing that the people couldn't stop His Majesty, Yang Shiqi moved the Empress out.
He is very clear about the emperor's affection for the empress, but the empress has followed him since he was the prince.
For so many years, whether His Majesty was entrusted to Beiping as the King of Yan, or His Majesty pretended to be crazy in order to avoid Jianwen's killing, or His Majesty rebelled, the empress and empress stood behind His Majesty and silently supported him.
His Majesty will never forget this friendship.
His Majesty set up a false harem, except for the empress, there was only one noble concubine brought over from Yan Wang's mansion, and the imperial concubine had nothing to do with her. All this showed the emperor's love and care for the empress.
So moving out the empress should be able to make His Majesty calm down.
Sure enough, as soon as Zhu Di heard about the queen, his attitude immediately softened. Although he was very annoyed, he really dilutes his desire to recognize his son a lot.
