Chapter 3 Should Wei Zhongxian stay?

Zhu Youjian did not plan to attack the eunuch party now.

In the last life, the young Chongzhen was not in a hurry to deal with Wei Zhongxian. Instead, he waited until the court was stabilized, and he began to take down the eunuch party. Wei Zhongxian, who was called nine thousand years old by the people of the world, was excited for a long time. He claimed to be wise and powerful, and the whole world was in control.

And now thinking about it, it's just a joke.

Wei Zhongxian seemed to be in power in the court and the people, and controlled the Jinyiwei East Factory. Most of the officials in the court were his followers, but all his power was attached to the imperial power, just like a tall building on the beach.

Now that I am the emperor, I want to take down Wei Zhongxian, it is just an edict, and it is not that complicated at all.

The court officials feared Wei Zhongxian and flattered Wei Zhongxian, but because Wei Zhongxian was close to the imperial power and could make the emperor obey his advice. In fact, except for a few Cui Chengxiu, who were not ashamed of flattering eunuchs? As long as he had a little suggestion, many civil officials would inevitably flock to the eunuchs and tore up a group of eunuchs to pieces!

As for the Jinyiwei who joined the eunuch party and the eunuchs in the palace, many people probably hoped that Wei Zhongxian would fall and Wei Zhongxian would fall. The Jinyiwei could be free from the jurisdiction of the Dongchang. No one was willing to kneel on the ground and call his ancestors all day long. The eunuchs in the palace were even more eager to let Wei Zhongxian fall and take the opportunity to take the lead.

The reason why Zhu Youjian was not in a hurry to take down Wei Zhongxian was not that the time was immature, but how to do it best for him.

It is not the most beneficial to the court, but to the emperor. The court belongs to those civil officials, and the only one who truly considers the Ming Dynasty is the country.

The scenes I saw in my last life when I was dying, nearly four hundred years later, there was a saying online that if Wei Zhongxian had not died, the Ming Dynasty would not have died. Chongzhen sniffed this statement.

Wei Zhongxian didn't even recognize Ding. If he could survive by relying on his Ming Dynasty, that would be the biggest joke!

In fact, the key point is whether to obey the deceptions of civil servants, completely dismiss the factory guards, rather than whether Wei Zhongxian should be eliminated.

The factory guards were the emperor's hawks and dogs. They could only exist with the help of imperial power. They were also the most loyal person to the emperor. Zhu Youjian realized this a few years before he hanged himself in his previous life. He had long regretted obeying the civil servants' deceitfulness and blindness, making himself deaf and blind. Although he sent a large number of eunuchs and soldiers in the later period, it was too late. Moreover, he did not use the factory guards in the right place at that time.

Therefore, Wei Zhongxian must be eliminated, but the factory guards cannot be abolished, but they also need to strengthen them, so that they can monitor the world and control the court.

The question is, how can we get the greatest benefit in the process of eliminating Wei Zhongxian!

In the past, those who were the people in the palace, except Cao Huachun, were unable to get on the table. Zhu Youjian’s biggest problem now is that no one is available. Without trustworthy people, no matter how many ideas they have, they cannot display them.

So the most important thing at the moment is not to go to court or get rid of Wei Zhongxian, but to gather some of your own people first.

Zhu Youjian didn't expect that he hadn't planned to deal with the eunuch party, but Ke Shi hit her in front of her and was annoying. So let's deal with this annoying woman first.

At this time, Zhu Youjian had just gotten up and had simply used breakfast, so Keshi ran over.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? I heard that you are not feeling well. I am so worried that I can't even eat." After saluting Zhu Youjian, Keshi stood up on her own, showing a caring look on her face, and said earnestly.

"It's not that I said you, Your Majesty, you are young, but you must take good care of your body. The entire Ming Dynasty is on Your Majesty. Are you not used to the meals in the palace? Otherwise, I will cook for Your Majesty every day from now on. The food I cook is delicious. The last emperor has not eaten enough for more than twenty years."

Keshi was talking nonsense that she was a smart woman. When Tianqi was alive, she relied on Tianqi's favor to power and everyone respected her as the holy lady. But now, Emperor Tianqi died, and the new emperor Zhu Youjian is in charge of the family. As long as the young emperor is served and flattered, his power can continue. Keshi is a family clean party.

When he heard that the emperor did not go to morning fucks on the pretext of physical discomfort, Keshi ran over.

In Keshi's opinion, if he can settle his brother Tianqi, he will naturally coax his younger brother Zhu Youjian. After all, he is still a seventeen-year-old child. Emperor Tianqi Zhu Youjian was so old and he still had his own breasts when he was so old!

However, the first thing Chongzhen said to her made Keshi's expression change drastically.

"Why are you in the palace?" After listening to Keshi's nagging, Chongzhen just asked coldly.

Chongzhen had no affection for the woman in front of him in his previous life, but still did not. This woman and the emperor's brother were not clear about it. Relying on his pampering by the emperor's brother, he even ignored the queen Zhang. The death of several descendants of the emperor's brother is probably unrelated to her.

"Ah?" Keshi was stunned by Zhu Youjian's question, and she didn't know what to say at once.

"You are not a concubine or a maid in the palace. Why are you in the palace?" Chongzhen said.

"I am the wife of the Holy Madam, and the wet nurse of the late emperor." Keshi murmured.

"But the emperor's brother is gone, why do you need a wet nurse?" Zhu Youjian said lightly, "Come here, drive her out of the palace, and strengthen the palace ban in the future. Outsiders are not allowed to enter the palace at will!"

"Yes..." Several eunuchs hesitated for a moment, stepped forward and dragged Keshi away.

"Your Majesty." Ke Shi called out, but she did not dare to act rashly, so she was dragged down obediently.

Although the boy in front of me is young, he is today, and it is no longer the apocalypse...

Seeing that Keshi, who was arrogant and domineering in the past, was dragged out, all the eunuchs and maids in the Qianqing Palace knew that the sky in the palace had been changed.

"Emperor, I ask them to send the memorial?" Cao Huachun asked respectfully.

Zhu Youjian shook his head: "I will not approve the memorial, I will go to Xiyuan today."

"I obey the order." Cao Huachun agreed to go down and prepare.

Soon, surrounded by hundreds of eunuchs and palace maids, Zhu Youjian left the Qianqing Palace with an imperial chariot and headed towards the western garden outside the palace.

Xiyuan is located west of the palace, on the banks of the South China Sea, with mountains and waters and beautiful scenery. Many emperors of the Ming Dynasty did not want to live in the palace but regarded Xiyuan as the head of the house. For example, Zhu Shou, who liked to fight and proclaim himself general Zhengde, Jiajing, who liked to practice Taoism, and Zhu Youjian's grandfather Wanli, all lived here all year round.

Zhu Youjian did not want to learn from Zhengde and Jiajing, but many of the things he had to do next were not suitable for staying in the palace.

As a place where Emperors of the Ming Dynasty lived all year round, Xiyuan was naturally perfect, and there was no problem with moving in with their luggage, so Zhu Youjian did not need to send someone to prepare in advance.

The first thing that happened to the West Garden was that Zhu Youjian asked someone to summon the British Prince Zhang Shize to come and meet him.
