Chapter 541
This turmoil has come to an end since then.
Zhou Jun and Le Zhao and others once again joined in the cleanup of the remnants of the Gui Clan.
The Gui Clan leaders with strength above the Saint Realm were all cleaned up by the sloppy old Taoist, and the remaining Gui Zun and Gui Jiang were naturally no match for these top geniuses.
With their participation, the situation quickly reversed.
After a day and a night, all the Gui Clan were killed, and batches of Ming Dynasty craftsmen began to enter the scene and repair the damaged buildings.
Zhu Jianyun also began to play his role as the former regent prince, organizing the on-site manpower and carrying out post-war work.
Zhou Jun returned to Le Zhao's mansion, closed his mind and rested, waiting for the summons of Emperor Ming.
Seven days later.
The main building of the palace was almost built, and Zhu Zhongkang appeared and began his first court session after the war.
The main content, in addition to reviewing the case of Wei Tianxiong's comeback, is to summarize the Luotian Grand Hunting.
All the princes and princesses who participated in the event, as well as the invited foreign aid, all showed up.
The entire court meeting was very lively.
Emperor Ming Zhu Zhongkang sat on the dragon throne with extraordinary momentum, and it can be seen that his injuries have healed a lot.
The sloppy old Taoist was not there, and no one knew where he went.
Zhou Jun and Le Zhao stood in the front row. As winners, they were very popular with people around them.
"Rongyue, you have hunted the most [Guangli] and have the best results. You are the champion of this Luotian Grand Hunt."
Finally, in the cumbersome process, Zhu Zhongkang spoke and got to the point.
As the saying goes, golden words, as soon as this sentence came out, it officially finalized the matter.
Everyone looked at him with envy, and all the civil and military officials, and the high-level officials of various ethnic groups, all showed respect.
Because the winner of the Luotian Grand Hunt will become the next generation of the Ming master.
After Zhu Zhongkang abdicated, it would be the time for Princess Le Zhao Zhu Rongyue to ascend the throne and become a female emperor.
Although Zhu Jianyun had been mentally prepared, he could not hide his loneliness at this moment.
Even if he was the eldest son, even if he was the crown prince, what could he do?
In this world where martial arts are supreme, it all depends on personal talent and ability.
"Rongyue, since you have won the first place in Luotian Grand Hunting, your father is willing to abide by the ancestral precepts and promise to abdicate in three hundred years."
"Three hundred years later, you will be the new generation of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty."
"But there is one thing you have to promise your father, that is, the bloodline of our Zhu family cannot be cut off."
"After you become the emperor, you can no longer be alone like this. You need to find a good husband, and at least give birth to more than ten children for our Ming Dynasty to continue the incense."
Zhu Zhongkang looked at Le Zhao with a loving look, paused, and suddenly smiled.
As soon as these words came out, all the ministers burst into laughter. Le Zhao's face flushed and she complained: "Father, what are you talking about? I, I..."
"What do you mean by you? You're not saying that you're still a child, are you?"
Zhu Zhongkang looked at her with a smile, with a face full of joking.
Le Zhao's ears were burning. The future empress of the Ming Dynasty was at a loss like a little girl at this moment.
"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore."
Zhu Zhongkang laughed, waved his hand, and said again: "If you don't want to, then wait until you have been emperor enough, and choose one of your eldest brother's children. Whoever performs best in the Luotian Grand Hunting will be the next emperor of the Ming Dynasty."
Although Taizu Ming is not as feudal as the mortal Ming in the history of Blue Star, the importance attached to the issue of the successor to the throne is the same.
So it is not appropriate for the empress to be in power in this regard.
After all, the royal family attaches great importance to blood inheritance, and they want to have as many children as possible to increase the chance of a genius.
Just like Zhu Zhongkang, he has 36 children.
Although the empress can recruit a prince consort at will, the prince consort cannot have children, so this matter must be done by herself.
But a dignified empress can't be pregnant all the time, right?
Giving birth to 36 children like Zhu Zhongkang would tire Le Zhao to death.
So the solution, in the end, still has to return to men like the prince, and the next generation of candidates should be selected from the prince's children.
Le Zhao was relieved when she heard it.
Obviously, although she had a desire for the throne and wanted to make achievements.
But the thought of continuing the incense for the Ming Dynasty was also a headache.
And the prince Zhu Jianyun also had a little more surprise in his eyes at this time.
I didn't expect that I lost the throne, but my future children got this opportunity unexpectedly!
When these things really happen one day in the future, it will make up for his current regrets.
"Mr. Zhou."
After discussing these things,Emperor Ming Zhu Zhongkang suddenly looked at Le Zhao and spoke in a friendly manner.
"Your Majesty!"
Seeing this, Zhou Jun hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his hands in a ministerial manner.
"You came from the Dichen Star Region. Although you are not from my Ming Dynasty, you are still a member of my human race in the final analysis. This time, you have helped Princess Le Zhao and made great contributions in the Luotian Great Hunt and the later killing of the Gui people."
"I will appoint you as the princess's personal guard [First-class Dragon General] today, and grant you a set of top-grade spiritual treasures [Hongwu Flying Fish Clothes] and a top-grade spiritual treasure [Break the World Axe]."
"As a [Dragon General], you are responsible for protecting the safety of the future female emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Your authority exceeds that of the Jinyiwei and the East and West Factories. In the Taizu Star Region, you have the power to execute first and report later. You are second to none!"
Zhu Zhongkang pondered for a moment, then suddenly spoke up and said a series of rewards.
Moreover, it seemed that he was afraid that Zhou Jun did not understand the value of this military rank [Dragon Commander], so he specifically explained how powerful it was.
Many foreign aids in Luotian Grand Hunting were essentially the geniuses of various races who followed the princes and achieved great things. Therefore, once the princes and princesses they served won, their status would naturally rise, and various rewards would follow.
In reality, many powerful foreign aids were not really willing to follow, but were specially invited.
Therefore, they were not in a superior-subordinate relationship with the princes and princesses, so after receiving the rewards, whether to stay or leave was entirely up to their heart.
In short, in addition to the actual spiritual treasure rewards and the glory and power brought by the [Dragon Commander] official position, Zhou Jun did not really need to stay in Taizu Star Region to follow Le Zhao.
It must be said that the restrictions of the Ming Dynasty in this regard were really loose, and the rewards were also quite generous.
Zhu Zhongkang's words made all the civil and military officials in the court look envious.
No matter where Zhou Jun goes in the future, as long as he is still in Taizu Star Domain, he will be the [First-class Dragon General] granted by Emperor Ming, who can walk sideways, second only to one person and above ten thousand people!
The power granted by the imperial power to kill first and report later is more like a sharp sword, which makes people afraid.
This means that Zhou Jun can kill people without worrying about the consequences.
Even if he kills the wrong person, he can use the universal reason of "protecting the safety of the future empress of Ming Dynasty" to explain it!
