Chapter 1 I Become Zhu Houxian

My name is Lin Yu, and I am very confused now.

Originally, I was cultivating immortals in Wudang Mountain, bah, practicing martial arts. He had just broken through the realm of innateness. His master Chongxu was so moved that he cried. He is a rare talent that can only be seen in a century. Innateness has not appeared in the world for many years.

Lin Yu was also very happy. He was fourteen years old. What is the concept of innateness at the age of fourteen? Anyway, in the words of the old Taoist priest Chongxu, it is very awesome, awesome.

Just when he thought he was going to gallop forward and prosper in the world, a delegation came from his court, saying that they wanted to take him back and enthrone him.

At that time, he was dumbfounded. The martial arts script that was agreed upon could be changed at any time. I am a genius who finally got promoted.

It was only later that he realized that this body was called Zhu Houcong. Now that his cousin was dead and had no children, it was logical to take him back to be the emperor.

To be honest, Lin Yu is confused now. He was a young man who grew up under the red flag, and he didn't know why he came to this world.

When he first came to Wudang Mountain, everyone called him Ling Xuzi, but he didn't take it seriously. Later, he discovered that there was such a thing as martial arts. He devoted himself to learning martial arts. Who would have thought that he would come and tell him right after he broke through the Xiantian realm?

He is now the emperor and wants to return to inherit the throne.

"Damn, if I knew I was going to be an emperor in the future, I would learn hammer martial arts. Of course I would have to learn how to govern the world."

It's a bit embarrassing now. When he becomes the emperor, he is also a big girl getting on the sedan chair for the first time.

Although he knew that this body was that of the future famous Taoist Emperor, he really didn't know much about the Jiajing Dynasty, or the history of any dynasty.

"There shouldn't be any problem. Anyway, the Ming Dynasty has a cabinet. If it doesn't work, just do it for the cabinet. And I am the emperor. I can play cultivating immortals so smoothly in the late Jiajing period. There is no reason why I can't do it. Come on, it really doesn't work, and it will cost you.

Those guys were killed."

Lin Yu encouraged himself. He also had capital. What he practiced was not the orthodox Wudang Mountain mental method, but the "Eternal Life Changchun Gong" that Lin Yu found in a Taoist scripture.

I don't know how this technique appeared in Wudang Mountain. Lin Yu fell in love with it on the spot. Although it is not very powerful, it can live a long time.

And I don’t know if it’s due to the compatibility of the skills or some other reason. He has made rapid progress. Now he is already innate. Not to mention immortality, 200 years old should be no problem. He doesn’t believe that being an emperor for 200 years can’t bring the country to the world.

Govern it well.

"The chief minister of the cabinet, Yang Tinghe, brought all the ministers to pay homage to His Majesty."

Hearing the sounds outside, Lin Yu felt a little confused. The main reason was that he didn't know what to say. It would be wrong to say anything at this time. After all, he was not the emperor yet, so he should fool him first.

"Your Majesty, the Chief Assistant and his ministers are outside for a visit. You need to wake them up." Seeing that Lin Yu didn't respond, Gu Dayong hurriedly stepped forward and said.

Once the emperor and the courtiers, these eunuchs are nothing if they don't have the favor of the emperor.

"Well, tell them all to get up." Lin Yu didn't say much, just fooled him first. When he took over this body, he really couldn't remember what happened before, otherwise he wouldn't know that he

It's Zhu Houcong.

But after knowing about it, I probably no longer have the intention to practice martial arts, and it is impossible to reach Xiantian now. Generally speaking, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

"All the ministers are equal." Gu Da raised his voice and tried hard to express himself.

"Your Majesty, quoting Song Chengyi's discussion of King Pu's etiquette, please Your Majesty honor Xiaozong as the emperor, change the title of King Xingxian to the emperor's uncle, and use the ceremony of the crown prince to enter the Wenhua store through Dong'anmen and choose a day to enthrone."

Although Yang Tinghe said it very politely, Lin Yu felt very uncomfortable. Why, my father doesn't recognize him, and he even chooses a day to ascend the throne?

Although I don’t know what Zhu Houcong did in the official history, he was not good at it anyway. This is not only a matter of recognizing his father, but also about the emperor’s face. It’s not bad if I don’t give you a big fight, but you do

I'm here to show off my power.

Lin Yu didn't let Gu Dayong pass the message anymore, and said coldly: "The imperial edict asked me to be the emperor, not the prince. Mr. Yang, what do you think?"

Lin Yu's eyes were blazing, and anyone could see that he was very angry at this moment.

Yang Tinghe felt a strong sense of oppression. He did not expect that His Majesty would be so powerful at such a young age. He quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I don't dare. This is just according to etiquette and law."

Although suppressed by Lin Yu's momentum, Yang Tinghe did not back down.

"Bold enough to talk to His Majesty as usual. Yang Tinghe, I think you don't want to be the chief minister of the cabinet anymore." Gu Dayong saw that Lin Yu was unhappy and hurriedly came out to show his courtesy.

He has long been dissatisfied with Yang Tinghe, and now he has the opportunity to sell it well in front of his new master, which will definitely be great.

Lin Yu narrowed his eyes slightly. He finally understood why ancient emperors liked to use traitorous ministers. These guys were obedient and had first-rate ability to observe people's emotions. Before he could say anything, Gu Dayong had already rushed forward.

Yang Tinghe didn't say anything and just knelt there.

"Okay, very good, then just spend it here. Kneel down if you want. Come to me when you figure it out. At worst, I will go back and be my King Xing." Lin Yu was not angry either.

Let's see when these guys are willing to give in.

It is already a certainty that he will take over the throne, and now it is not good for everyone to stand still here.

Lin Yu looked at the kneeling ministers below with a smile. He felt that it was very difficult. The ministers in the Ming Dynasty had great power. Lin Yu had heard a saying on the Internet that the Ming Dynasty was

After being corrupted by the Donglin Party, in the later period the emperor had to support the eunuchs to fight against these cronies.

What is a crony is that I am not the only one. Once a unified voice appears in the court, it will be very scary for the emperor, because under the coercion of the crony, the emperor can only hear this voice.

Although Lin Yu doesn't particularly believe this statement, because there were many weird emperors in the late Ming Dynasty, such as his cousin, the general emperor, himself, the Taoist emperor, and later the carpenter emperor.

To say that it is all caused by cronies is not entirely true. If you, the emperor, do nothing, it seems to be quite normal for others to join the group to keep warm.

But, since there is such a statement, it is not groundless. You must take precautions. You must not say what others say. Blindly giving in will only lead to the leader being weak and the subordinates being strong.

Lin Yu spent almost half an hour with these guys. Lin Yu really admired the perseverance of these guys, kneeling there under such a bright sun, but it was impossible for Lin Yu to give in today.

In the end, the Empress Dowager became the peacemaker, followed Lin Yu's wishes, entered through the Daming Gate, and then went directly to Fengtian Palace to succeed to the throne.

Looking at His Highness's kneeling ministers, Lin Yu also felt a heroic spirit. They all said that the Ming Dynasty was the most courageous dynasty, but it was really corrupt in the later period, and no accomplished monarch appeared.

It is different now that he is in power. Although he may not be a good emperor, he will definitely not let the tragedy happen again, and it is even less likely that the country will change hands in a hundred years and the Han people will be ruled by foreigners.

"Everyone loves you." Lin Yu, wearing a yellow robe, waved his hand. At this moment, he seemed to really have control of the world.

Then there was a lot of tedious etiquette. The succession took three whole days. Lin Yu was exhausted mentally and physically. Fortunately, he had a strong foundation and was an innate strong man. Not to mention he couldn't sleep well for a few days. I just It’s okay if you don’t sleep.

However, after complicated etiquette, the throne was finally decided. From now on, he will be the orthodox one. As long as no one rebels and kicks him out, then he represents the great righteousness. It is not a joke in ancient times that if a king wants his ministers to die, they will have to die. .

"Your Majesty, Yang Tinghe, the chief minister of the cabinet, has an audience." Lin Yu was lying in the warm pavilion of Qianqing Palace, enjoying the service of the palace maid. Although he had enough energy, he had been really troublesome these days. Now he finally had time to lie down, so he couldn't How comfortable and comfortable.

"Tell him to come in." Lin Yu didn't do anything these days. He immediately sent his confidant Ge Jing who followed him to take over Dongchang and Jinyiwei. Apart from anything else, there must be information. of.

Although Lin Yu didn't know much about Yang Tinghe's history, he knew that he was a capable minister. No matter what he wanted to do, he would still have to rely on these people in the early stage.

"I am here to see you, Your Majesty." Yang Tinghe was very respectful and did not hesitate because Lin Yu had just ascended the throne.

"You don't have to be polite, Mr. Yang Ge. Come, show Mr. Yang Ge a seat." Lin Yu waved his hand, but he did not get up, but lay half on the bed. The maid next to him was still feeding grapes.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yang Tinghe was not too polite. As the chief minister of the cabinet, he was already inferior to one person and more than ten thousand people. He could still handle this situation. However, when he saw Lin Yu being so frivolous, he was still a little a little bit. frown.

"What's wrong with Mr. Ge?" Lin Yu didn't care. He needed time. On the one hand, he was still a little young, and on the other hand, he needed to cultivate his confidants. He had been living in Wudang Mountain before and didn't really know anyone. This is what troubles him the most, no one can help him.

That Ge Jing was given to him by his mother, and the others are really confused at the moment.

"It's like this. Your Majesty has now inherited the throne. Please respect Xiaozong as the emperor and change the name of King Xingxian to the emperor's uncle." Yang Tinghe looked upright, as if I was right and you were wrong. He wanted to take advantage of his momentum. Overwhelm Lin Yu.

But how could Lin Yu get what he wanted? In fact, he was a little helpless. This Yang Tinghe was really a piece of shit. He had gone back and forth about this matter five times. It seemed that he would not be completely relieved today. No more.

"There is no need to talk about this matter. I am still young and have lived in Wudang Mountain all year round. I am still insufficient for national affairs. I still need the support and help of the cabinet." Lin Yu didn't want to break up with him for the time being. It would be bad for everyone. , just support him for now. Later, when his wings are full, he can do whatever he wants.

"It is the blessing of a humble minister to solve your Majesty's worries. This is also the duty of the cabinet. However, the matter of the imperial examination needs to be decided as soon as possible and then announced to the world to appease the hearts of the people in the world." Yang Tinghe is neither humble nor arrogant, three sentences. Without saying anything, he went back to the topic.

Lin Yu squinted his eyes, and the atmosphere in the greenhouse froze instantly. Yang Tinghe felt a strong momentum oppressing him. Just like that day outside Beijing, he broke out in a cold sweat. It seemed that this was not an illusion.

His Majesty the Emperor is really not simple.

Lin Yu stood up and came to Yang Tinghe step by step.

At this time, Yang Tinghe's back was soaked with sweat. He didn't understand why His Majesty had such courage just after he ascended the throne. Even if he wanted to get up, he felt that he couldn't do it.

Lin Yu gently put his hand on Yang Tinghe's shoulder, leaned into Yang Tinghe's ear and whispered, "Yang Tinghe, is this what you want, or is it everyone else's?"

Although Lin Yu's voice was very gentle, it was like thunder in Yang Tinghe's ears. He knew that if he didn't answer well, his life might really be in danger.

"This, this, this, this is naturally the intention of the ministers. The ministers are just conveying it on their behalf." Yang Tinghe pretended to be calm. After several confrontations, he knew that His Majesty the Emperor was not a peaceful master, and he was not as easy to fool as the previous one.

ah.

"Well, it's okay if you don't take the lead. I have just entered the Forbidden City and don't understand many things. During this time, I have relied more on Yang Ge. I have not been in court in the past few days. What can I do to organize the cabinet?

, and then just ask the Supervisor of Ceremonies to approve it."

Seeing Yang Tinghe lowering his head, Lin Yu also accepted it and gave up without too much entanglement. Isn't it just a right? I will give it to you, but this right is given to you by me. You must remember your position.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Yang Tinghe said nothing more in the end.

"Well, let's do this for now. I hope that we can join hands with you to create a beautiful world for the Ming Dynasty." Lin Yu patted Yang Tinghe on the shoulder, looking like he was heartbroken.

"I am so flattered that I will follow His Majesty's footsteps." Yang Tinghe was not a blind person, and he knelt down quickly to express his determination.

"Get up, Mr. Ge. In the future, the Ming Dynasty will have to rely on Mr. Ge. Please keep your etiquette simple when you see me. Don't kneel down at every turn. Mr. Ge is my hero for the Ming Dynasty."

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty." This is a beautiful picture of harmony between the monarch and his ministers.

"Haha, then Yang Ge, please leave if you have nothing to do. I'm tired." Lin Yu waved his hand, let's do this for today. At present, he still needs Yang Tinghe to stabilize the internal and external situation.

"Then I will retire first."

Lin Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Yang Tinghe's leaving back. Although the old fox was forced by his own momentum and promised well, it was unknown what he was thinking in his heart.

He is not his imperial brother Zhu Houzhao. It is ridiculous that an emperor fell into the water and drowned. But he is not him. It is okay for Yang Tinghe to be obedient. If he is not obedient, then change him. This world is now my world.

"Ge Jing." Lin Yu looked at the night outside the window, looked at Yang Tinghe's completely gone back, and called out to the only person he could temporarily trust.

"Your Majesty." Ge Jing knelt down quickly. He must know that his rights were given by the emperor. If Your Majesty does not favor him, then he is nothing, so he can only and must support Lin Yu.

"Find Wang Yangming and enter the palace secretly. I want to see him. Remember, don't let others know." Lin Yu wanted to meet this saint of the time and the capable man who founded the mind science. Although this man has

Competence, but loyalty is necessary.

"Your Majesty, this Wang Yangming..." Ge Jing hesitated for a while. He had just entered the Forbidden City with his master. Lin Yu, the imperial guard of the East Factory, all recommended him, as well as the Supervisor of Ceremonies. He was really busy for a while.

Ah, and there aren’t many available people at my disposal.

Seeing Ge Jing kneeling below, Lin Yu sighed. He was simply useless. If there was no one to use him, he wouldn't use him.

"Find a time, find a time to bring him here. Are you confused or something?" If possible, I really want to give this guy a hard time.

"No." Ge Jing wiped the sweat from his head. He has been very busy these days. There are a lot of things that he can't handle.

"Okay, okay, let's go down." Lin Yu waved his hand impatiently. There are really no people available under him. It looks quite bad.

But fortunately, now he is the orthodoxy. As long as he takes his time, he can always develop. If it is really not possible, the worst he can do is become a tyrant. As long as he can make the country develop, I can write whatever your historian wants, even if you want to write bad things about me.

You have to wait for me to die, wait slowly, and see who can survive.

Although Lin Yu sighed a little, he was also very lucky. Fortunately, there was still some way to save the Ming Dynasty at this time. If it had reached the Chongzhen period, there would really be no way to save him. There is still some way to save him now.

Lin Yu asked someone to find a futon and start practicing. This immortality eternal spring skill was his capital. As long as he firmly occupied the throne, even if he changed it bit by bit, he was confident that he could bring back the Ming Dynasty.

Lin Yu got up early the next morning and practiced all night to be exact.

"Your Majesty, it's time to prepare for the early morning court." A young eunuch came in and woke Lin Yu up.

Lin Yu opened his eyes and saw that it was still dark outside. No wonder there were many foolish kings who got up so early in the morning to prepare for the morning meeting, and then had to review memorials at night. This was a very tiring rhythm.

"If you don't go to court today, bring me a set of casual clothes and take me to the Hanlin Academy." He didn't plan to go to court these days. He wanted to see what Yang Ting and the others were going to do first.

But he can't be idle. There must be a lot of books in the palace. His Changchun Kung Fu is somewhat incomplete. Although he has been promoted to innate, his potential is almost exhausted. He has to look for follow-up techniques. After all, the body is revolutionary.

Capital, he is still young, has no confidants of his own, and cannot hear the true voice in court.

"Nuo." The little eunuch was still very discerning, and whatever His Majesty the Emperor said would be whatever he said.

After Lin Yu washed up, he took a few young eunuchs and walked towards the Hanlin Academy.

When the head of the Hanlin Academy saw Lin Yu coming, he quickly knelt down and said, "I am here to see you, Your Majesty." He was a little confused. His Majesty should go to court at this time. Several editors of the Hanlin Academy had gone to court.

Why did your Majesty come here?

"Ping Sheng, are all the Ouchi books here?" Lin Yu looked around and didn't see many books, and these were definitely not what he wanted to find.

"Your Majesty, the imperial collection of books is generally in Wenyuan Pavilion. The Hanlin Academy is only responsible for the editing of some books and the repair of damaged books. The main collection of books is not here." The official did not dare to hide it. Three months after the new official took office

Don't worry, let alone the new emperor. Who knows what the new emperor's character is.

"Take me there." Lin Yu didn't care where he was, as long as he found him.

"promise."

Here, Lin Yu is leading people to Wenyuan Pavilion. Over there, the ministers have been waiting outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony early. You know, today can be regarded as His Majesty's first morning court appearance since he ascended the throne. Everyone pays great attention to it.

, all hoping to leave a good impression on the new emperor.

At that time, I waited and saw no one coming. Everyone started talking, what does the emperor mean? How long has it been? Why hasn't he come yet?

"Master Yang, do you know what your Majesty means by this?" Mao Ji looked at Yang Tinghe. He was late for work on his first day. This is not a good sign.

"Master Mao, just wait." Yang Tinghe didn't say much. Although Lin Yu said so yesterday, after all, there was no formal notice, so he couldn't say anything. He had to come anyway.

Soon a young eunuch came to report.

"Your Majesty has decreed that you will not attend court early today."

The minister below suddenly exploded. How could this be allowed? He was absent from work on the first day of work. What kind of trouble was this? Is this the second righteousness?

"What is your Majesty doing? It's only the first day. No, I have to go find Your Majesty. Is there any other colleague who will come with me?" Jiang Mian was the first to stand up. This was indeed a bit outrageous.

"I will go with Mr. Jiang."

"Me too."

"Me too."

These are all people who are not afraid of death, especially those who are the censors and officials. This is not bad. You give up your job on the first day of work, and you will be done with it if you see if I spray you or not.

Just when everyone was gargling and getting ready, Yang Tinghe spoke, "Comrades, please be patient for a moment. Your Majesty and I have been angry yesterday. Your Majesty has important things to do in the past few days. Please leave. It should be done these days."

If you don't go to court, you can submit any important matters to the cabinet."

Lin Yu did have a bad relationship with him. He couldn't figure out Lin Yu's way for a while, so this situation was the best. Daming would still leave it to them to manage, and wait until Lin Yu's way was figured out later.

Decide.

"What can your Majesty do? Today is the first morning court meeting since ascending the throne. If it doesn't work, I have to go find your Majesty."

Although Yang Tinghe said this, there are always people who are not afraid of death, especially those who are officials. Why, little brother, are you colluding with His Majesty to fool us? If not, I want to speak up.

Let your majesty see how powerful we are. We will be famous forever even if we succeed. Even if we fail, we will be famous forever. No matter what, we will not lose anything.

"Let's go, we want to see His Majesty." So a group of officials encouraged many people to enter the palace to see Lin Yu.

Yang Tinghe didn't say anything. He also wanted to see how His Majesty the Emperor would handle this matter. You know, it must be the Emperor's fault for not going to court. It was just right for these guys to explore the way.

"Master Yang, what is going on?" Several cabinet ministers gathered around. They didn't believe that Yang Tinghe didn't know anything.

"Let them go their own way. Sirs, follow me back to the cabinet. Let's arrange the work." Yang Tinghe smiled and did not answer directly. How the hell do I know what His Majesty is thinking? I don't know any more than you do.

More or less good.
