After Zhu Biao simply took a few sips of tea, he continued to review the memorial. Huguang reported that Wang Fo'er, a demon from Luotian County, claimed that Maitreya Buddha was born. He wrote that the Buddha's name was misleading and wanted to gather people to cause chaos. He was captured and killed by the guards.
Guizhou Xuanwei Envoy Long Zan Aqi reported that the barbarians in Zhiziping, Rongxi, Sinan Xuanwei Division rebelled and expelled their chief Yang Shirong. The Xuanwei Envoy Division sent troops to quell the rebellion.
Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs reported that the world was at peace, and said that the territory at home and abroad was only tens of thousands of miles away. He wanted to observe the situation of mountains and rivers, and the products of the far and near Esai and prefectures and counties. He ordered all provinces to draw drawings and present them every leap year.
.
The Ministry of Etiquette reported that the King of Goryeo sent Lu Zhen, his secret judge, to express his gratitude for the gift of medicine, bait, tribute fine cloth, and tribute items to the East Palace of the Middle Palace. The Empress Dowager Mingde also presented precious ginseng to ensure the safety of the princess's pregnancy.
Qin Tianjian reported that at night there was a blue and white shooting star traveling from the north to the northeast in the clouds until it disappeared in the traveling air.
The Department of Sengdaolu has approved that there are 96,328 monks, nuns and Taoists in the world.
The prefect of Chengdu reported that the restoration of Chengdu City was completed. On Wednesday, there were 279 garrison buildings on the city that were 1,600 feet high and 3 feet high...
Zhu Biao bent over the desk to review, and the time passed unknowingly. The emperor and the empress left Beijing for a northern tour, which was a big deal both inside and outside the palace, but to Zhu Biao, it was nothing.
The end of noon passed quickly, and when it was time to set the time, Zhu Biao was interrupted by an unbearable feeling of hunger in his stomach. He looked at the pile of memorials that had not become smaller but had become thicker and sighed.
"Pass the meal around."
Liu Jin, who had come back a long time ago and was scratching his head anxiously, responded quickly. He had been urging his father to have a meal since he came back. After all, breakfast was very sparse, and even though he had some refreshments in the middle, it was still not as good as eating.
Still following the rules set by Empress Ma, Zhu Biao's meals were very simple and tasted ordinary, but they also followed the golden mean. If they were neither good nor bad, they would not be gluttons.
After eating two cakes and a bowl of rice, Zhu Biao exhaled with satisfaction, thinking that after these critical days passed, more government affairs would have to be transferred to Zhongshu Province.
Not only to give Hu Weiyong a chance, but also because it is really difficult for one person to undertake such heavy government affairs. Not everyone is the iron-clad Emperor Zhu. If Zhu Biao follows his father's pace, I am afraid he will die from exhaustion sooner or later.
In the palace.
Zhu Biao considers himself to have a strong character. Even though he is not as strong as Lao Zhu, the founder of the country, he should be among the best among the many emperors and princes in the past dynasties. Even he cannot withstand such hard work, let alone
his descendants.
After finishing his meal, Zhu Biao walked slowly in the palace, recalling in his mind whether there were any omissions in the memorial he had just reviewed, and whether the implementation of the decree would cause other chain reactions.
While thinking about this, it was time to arrive at Youshi. Liu Jintong informed Hu Xiang and six ministers to ask for an audience. Zhu Biao did not summon them at the Jinshen Hall, but instead ordered Liu Jin to take them to the Huagai Hall to wait.
Zhu Biao was not in a hurry to go. It was just a meeting between the power centers of the imperial court after the emperor left Beijing, and there was nothing substantial to discuss.
When the tea in the cup was gone, Zhu Biao got up and went to the side hall to change clothes. The court clothes were too solemn and solemn, which was not needed at this time, not to mention Zhu Biao's intention to let Hu Weiyong have more power.
She put on a robe with a coiled collar and narrow sleeves, embroidered with gold threads to form a pattern of clouds and waves, and the shadow of a dragon appeared faintly in the refraction of the sun. The crown on her head was also taken off, and it was simply tied behind her back with a gold ring inlaid with Dongzhu.
Zhu Biao moved his body with a contented look on his face, and then walked towards the Huagai Hall. Liu Jin followed behind him and said, "I just invited some of the ministers to sit down for tea."
"Um."
Except for the Jinshen Hall of Fengtian Hall, these court officials are qualified to sit wherever they are. Only those who have reached this level are qualified to secretly shout in their hearts: "I will help the king to rule the world, who else can I do!"
Zhu Biao stepped into the Huagai Hall. The so-called Huagai is one of the star officials in the constellations. It belongs to the purple micro-wall and is shaped like an umbrella. It has the duty of protecting the emperor and showing his power. Therefore, he is full of energy and admires himself. He has no relatives to rely on and can rise and fall independently. This symbolizes
Aloof, aloof, unattainable.
"I respectfully welcome the prince to his thousandth birthday."
"Haha, there is no need to be so restrained. Otherwise, why would I specially ask my dear friends to wait in the Huagai Hall?"
Zhu Biao passed them and went directly to the upper seat and sat down with a smile: "Just now Chen Aiqing was playing in the Jinshen Hall, but I refused to accept the seat offered by me, so I didn't meet with you in the Jinshen Hall."
Hu Weiyong sighed: "Your Highness is so generous and kind, and all the ministers are so grateful that they shed tears of gratitude."
Naturally, the six ministers also had the same look, especially Chen Mingjie, the minister of punishment, with white hair looming on his temples. At this time, his eyes were shining brightly, and he was really about to burst into tears.
"Everyone, please sit down."
After seeing them sit down respectfully, Zhu Biao said: "I have just reviewed the memorials for a few hours, and now they are still piled up like a mountain. It must be the same for several of my beloved ministers. The government affairs are heavy, and you and I, the monarch and my ministers, should work together to support them."
"Dare you not share your worries!"
Zhu Biao nodded with satisfaction, and then began to praise Hu Weiyong, saying that those who are capable work hard. Hu is loyal to the monarch and the country, and is also the one who proposes the national policy of the court for the current ten years. All the six ministries should try their best to cooperate.
Hu Weiyong stood up and begged for mercy, and the other six ministers expressed that they would obey His Royal Highness in everything and they would do their best to cooperate with the prime minister in governing the country.
"I feel relieved after listening to your words. It's also because I promised last year that I would take my concubines to the Purple Mountain for an outing after the spring. Now they are making a lot of noise."
The Minister of Civil Affairs said with a smile: "Although His Highness has not yet uttered the Tianxian, he has spoken with sincerity. Once he has made a promise, he must fulfill it."
The Minister of Rites pondered for a moment and said: "It is a trivial matter for Your Highness to take your family to the Purple Sun for an outing, but I would like to ask Your Highness to leave it for a few days. After all, the Emperor and the Empress are not far from the capital."
Zhu Biao smiled and said: "There is no rush for a day or two. It's just that the affairs of the Tea Horse Department, banknotes and the Marquis of Jiangyin need to be handled by me. I'm afraid I won't be able to handle the rest of the government affairs."
………………
After some responses, the meaning that should be expressed was very clear, and they must have understood it. The Prime Minister led the Zhongshu Province to assist in government affairs, and the six ministries actively cooperated.
As for those officials who are still in prison in the Ministry of Justice, they will find excuses for pardon in three or four days, and some of those who made rude remarks must plead guilty and repent. As for those who are really stubborn, they will be demoted to the local people.
Zhu Biao stretched out his hand to pick up the tea cup. The Minister of Rites quickly stood up and said: "I have a happy event to report to Your Highness. Today, the king of Xuyi County has entered Ruimai with one stalk and two ears. It is a good harvest. The grain is long and the king is virtuous. The two seedlings will show together."
Natural wealth, good fortune, and fortune are all a sign of good fortune for the country and a sign of the Holy Age."
"The product of today's Ruimai is a sign that the emperor borrowed the spirit of vegetation to show the unity of the emperor and his ministers. It is also produced in Xuyi, which belongs to Linhao Imperial Township. It is a suitable place to recommend to the ancestral temple to show the ancestors' spirits, and the new wheat is recommended.
The ancestral temple is in good condition."
"Your Majesty, the sun and moon have reopened the sky, and the prince's benevolence is known to the world. It is hoped that the two princes can live in harmony. The prosperous age is approaching, and I would like to congratulate your highness!"
The Minister of Rites said it with great enthusiasm. In fact, this auspicious sign was reported to the Ministry of Rites yesterday, but he deliberately suppressed it for one day. Now that the Holy Emperor is proud to pass on the national jade seal, he no longer likes the auspicious sign, even if it is reported to the Ministry of Rites, it will be no more.
And today, when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is appointed to officially supervise the country's governance on behalf of the king, he is surely happy to offer such auspicious auspiciousness. After all, it is a good talk if it is spread out. Even if the Holy Father knew about it, he would not say anything to hinder His Highness.
The Minister of Etiquette had obviously said hello in advance, and a young eunuch at the entrance of the palace was about to come in holding a purple box covered with a yellow scarf and present it to the prince for auspicious viewing.
Hu Weiyong and the other five ministers naturally stood up and congratulated each other very cooperatively. Zhu Biao was silent for a moment, stood up and said with a smile: "I don't dare to accept Ruimai as my palace. It must be attributed to the virtues of my father and ancestors, and to the officers and men who have served their lives well."
To defend the enemy from outside the country, we should also attribute it to the officials who are honest and thrifty and work hard day and night to govern the country and bring peace to the people at home!"
Zhu Biao waved his hand slightly and said: "This auspicious sign has two ears on a stem. Now take one ear and send it to King Zhongshan, take one ear and give it to Hu Xiangguo, and send the stem to the Holy Majesty."
The smile of the Minister of Rites was a little stiff, but Zhu Biao continued to give instructions: "Since auspiciousness is given to people by God, why do you think that King Gu Nian has six blessings, but I will reward you with six taels of silver for a piece of cloth, and the gift will be arranged by the Ministry of Rites."
