Chapter 717 Linxuans appointment(2/2)
Without experience, how can you inherit the throne? Without experience, you cannot even form a core team of your own. Even if you successfully ascend to the throne, you may be ignored by ministers.
The most important problem of many emperors in the Ming Dynasty was actually the lack of enough confidants. In the end, they could only use the eunuchs around the palace as confidants to fight against the ministers of the foreign court. Although they took eunuch politics to a new level, they always
The inability to truly control the government was also the root of the decline of the Ming Dynasty.
The emperor and the cabinet and the outer court were fighting for power, and the country did not even have a real political center. How could it be strong?
The institutions and officials of the East Palace are those who teach, assist and train the prince.
Zhu Yihai even plans to wait until the capital is moved to Beijing next year, then set aside a prefecture or a county in the surrounding area and hand it over to the East Palace to be responsible for management, giving them some more direct experience opportunities and actual combat training.
The attitude and determination revealed by the emperor were not opposed by all the ministers in the palace.
This is not only the authority of the emperor, but also the fact that everyone supports the new prince. Everyone here is the emperor's chosen confidant, and who would go against the emperor?
"Get ready to plan the ceremony for the crown prince's canonization."
"The minister requested to register his name at the Linxuan of Fengtian Hall. The emperor came to the scene in person. The ceremony was presided over by the first assistant Wen Anzhi. The second assistant conferred the book and seal on behalf of the emperor. After the ceremony, the prince went to the queen's palace to pay homage.
After paying homage to the empress, the prince went to the Ancestral Temple to pay homage to the imperial concubine under the guard of the East Palace officials. This ceremony was presided over by the Commander in Chief and conducted by the third division and the third young master." Wang Zhiren suggested.
Zhu Yihai thought about it.
"The prince will first go to Nanjing to visit the Xiaoling Mausoleum and the Imperial Ancestral Temple, and then on the first day of next year, he will be registered at the Linxuan of Fengtian Hall. After the year, he will go to Beijing to visit the Imperial Ancestral Temple."
The prince is the foundation of the country, and Zhu Yihai hopes that it will be grand and formal.
"One more thing, the prince is thirteen this year, but has not yet performed the crowning ceremony. I admire the Zhou system, the Han and Tang Dynasties, and should further promote the Yuanfu ceremony of our Han people. The prince should perform the three plus ceremonies, net scarf, and Yishan crown.
Nine crowns."
In the Ming Dynasty ceremony, the crown prince or grandson of the emperor was crowned at the age of 12 or 15. Without the crown, he has no pro-government power, and he cannot participate in decision-making even if he is underage.
Ordinary people can be crowned when they are twenty, but officials and officials can be crowned when they are fifteen.
After being crowned, it also means that you can get married and have children.
Because Zhu Changluo of Mingguangzong was popular, his position was unstable and he was not crowned until he was nineteen years old.
Zhu Yihai asked the ministers to prepare the crowning ceremony for the prince now. He would be crowned first and then canonized as the prince. After the crowning, he could officially practice in the small court in the East Palace that was set up for him.
It is etiquette to give birth to children by wearing the crown. If a man is young, he must be crowned when he marries.
For Zhu Yihai, after the thirteen-year-old Zhu Hongjia was crowned, he could not only be crowned prince and oversee the affairs of state, but he could even start considering marrying the crown prince.
"My lords, after Hongjia is crowned and canonized, he will be fourteen years later and will be of marriageable age. If you have any suitable girls, please recommend them to me."
The Crown Princess is also the future Queen and even the mother of the future Emperor's grandson. Zhu Yihai still hopes to find a good daughter-in-law with good conduct and virtuous character.
When it comes to his requirements for the future crown princess, he is not limited to whether she belongs to a family of civil servants or military officials. Of course, it is also best that she be the daughter of a fifth-rank or above official and general, with a certain family background, and the most important thing is that she is a girl, who must be healthy and virtuous.
Germany.
You must be at least 1.65 meters tall, and your feet must not have been bound. It doesn't matter if you have your feet bound more or less.
There is no restriction on whether you are from the south or the north, but the best age is thirteen or fifteen or fifteen or sixteen, and even if you are older, it should not be more than three years old.
