But no one dared to say anything. To expose it at this time would be tantamount to seeking death.

Han Yu then took the lead and said, "The royal family is full of love. Your Majesty is so devoted to loyalty and righteousness, and cares for family ties, that you are truly a role model for the world. However, Your Majesty must also mourn. The late emperor's spirit is in heaven, and he hopes that Your Majesty will cheer up and work hard to govern the country and revive the Ming Dynasty."

Several people looked at Han Yu, stroking his beard thoughtfully and nodding slightly, looking like they agreed.

But they were complaining in their hearts, he is worthy of being the chief minister of the cabinet, he is really thick-skinned, do you believe what he said?

It's so shameless and has no bottom line.

However, they all knew that Han Yu was acting in cooperation with His Majesty.

His Majesty wanted to show that he valued family ties, so naturally, the ministers could not undermine him. So, several others followed suit, and for a moment, the atmosphere became harmonious.

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost right, Zhu Youxiao nodded, and the sad expression on his face disappeared.

He looked at the men with a serious expression and said, "Although I cannot severely punish Prince Fu, I am the Son of Heaven and the people are my subjects. How can I not stand up for them?"

"There's no need to rescind Prince Fu's title; let him pass it on to his son. As for Prince Fu himself, he shouldn't go to Fengyang; he should come to the capital. While he's there, he should spend time with Concubine Zheng. Mother and son must miss each other after so many years together. Now that he's lost his princely title, it's good for him to return to the capital."

"As for the new Prince of Fu, please hand over all your land and property in Henan and come to the capital. I will build a Prince of Fu Palace for him in the capital, and I will personally teach him. When he is qualified, I will release him and he will be re-enfeoffed."

After hearing what Zhu Youxiao said, several people were shocked.

Your Majesty is truly remarkable. First of all, you value family affection and allow Prince Fu to return to Beijing to serve his mother. This is a great favor.

Although you have lost your princely title, that is because you made a mistake. Your Majesty's kindness is already a blessing from heaven.

The title will be passed on to your son, and your heirs will be sent to the capital to be personally taught by His Majesty. After completing their education, they will be sent to the local areas to serve as vassal kings.

As expected of His Majesty, the arrangements were well made. He gave explanations to the people, severely punished Prince Fu, and at the same time did not disregard family affection.

Kill three birds with one stone.
