Chapter 127 Xuan Qin violated Franji’s envoy and went to the palace! (Added update for alliance leader Mikoyan Ming)
Cui Yuan almost lost his temper.
What are you afraid of?
"...Your Majesty, my merits are not worthy of receiving this reward." Cui Yuan kowtows his head lower and raises his butt higher, "I am the Prince Consort, how can a relative of the country occupy such a high position? Your Majesty has just ascended to the throne.
I know that Your Majesty is in trouble. Since I am a relative of the country, I dare not disobey the sacred orders, but I must not cause any worries to Your Majesty."
"This is not only a sacred mandate, but also what has been agreed upon at the national policy meeting. Cui Yuan, don't you understand?" Zhu Houcong sighed with a smile, "Guo Xun can't say these words of yours. At the national policy meeting, other ministers don't have to worry from now on.
Guo Xun is talking nonsense."
"...I dare to ask Your Majesty...what happened to Marquis Wu Ding?"
Cui Yuan was stunned, it was too shocking.
Isn’t the person in charge of the Zuo Army Governor’s Office Guo Xun? Isn’t there only one minister from the five government offices participating in the national policy meeting? What nonsense did Guo Xun talk about at the national policy meeting?
"Going to serve as a soldier."
Cui Yuan looked up at the emperor in astonishment.
Zhu Houcong said seriously: "Wu Dinghou said that he should set an example, start from a small soldier, and then make achievements worthy of the title. Of course, after all, he is a big marquis, and no one dares to command him in the army, so he first established a Shenji battalion.
A camp officer in the Chinese army."
Cui Yuan still found it unbelievable: Isn't that just the leader of a regiment of one of the five armies of the Shenji Battalion?
Is that too hard? I should at least take charge of the entire Shenji camp.
"You haven't accepted the decree yet?" Zhu Houcong smiled and said, "There are civil servants with empty titles, the position of marquis, and positions in the five palaces. Don't belittle yourself and teach Liu Long to be timid. Now that I have succeeded to the throne, everyone has their own rights.
Use your talents accordingly."
Cui Yuan looked at the emperor with complicated emotions.
Becoming the Prince Consort is a step to the sky, your status is a super-class existence, and you will have a life of glory and wealth without any worries.
However, as a relative of the state, except in the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China, he gradually could only do things such as offering sacrifices, supervising construction projects, and managing relatives of the emperor.
There is not one out of ten relatives of the country who can have the rank of military minister.
But now the emperor told him that he already had a first-class civilian official named Ronglu Doctor.
He also has the fictitious title of Zhu Guo, a first-rank official who can be both civil and military.
He still has the title of Marquis of Jingshan. Although he is not hereditary, he is no longer a relative of the country because of the prince-in-law, but has the status of a distinguished minister.
In the end, he directly became the head of the Zuojun Dudufu, participated in national policy meetings, and became one of the eighteen giants of the Ming Dynasty under the emperor.
Across the civil and military affairs, and directly connected with the ministers and relatives of the country, Cui Yuan's circle will reach everything except the internal ministers.
Wouldn't other civil servants and military generals object to such an overwhelming favor from the emperor?
Cui Yuan's tears really came out: "Your Majesty's kindness is too heavy, and I am sincere and frightened. This responsibility is too great, and my virtue and talent are shallow."
Once such a person has a solid foundation, he can rebel in no time!
You see, even Liu Long knew that I was teaching him how to be a turtle, and he had been guarding against me from the beginning.
This is a temporary walk for him to grind, absolutely!
What happens then?
So Cui Yuan's refusal was almost like a donkey's braying.
Zhu Houcong looked at him amusedly: "I just appreciate that you are content and aware of danger and know how to retreat. What are you afraid of?"
Cui Yuan looked pitiful: I am your uncle after all. Compared with this, I will just do the clan order.
Participating in the national policy meeting means competing with the other Seventeen Arhats! Even Liang Chu can't handle it!
Zhu Houcong stopped smiling: "You can't refuse! Nowadays, the state affairs are heavy. Cui Qing should give full play to what he has learned so that his life will not be wasted!"
Unless this precedent is set, will my sister really be entrusted to two useless dim sums in the future?
If a person has nothing to do, he will become worse and worse.
In this era, various mutual defenses and supervision systems have their own limitations, and there is still room for improvement.
Besides, Zhu Houcong only wanted to build some foundations and bury the seeds in this life.
If there are repeated twists and turns in the future, future generations will remember his gains and losses during the Jiajing Dynasty.
The most important thing is that the current Xunchen generals are too useless and really lack a brain to use them.
Using the urgent war in the South China Sea as an excuse, Cui Yuan, a man with brains and prestige, was pushed out to be the spokesperson first, which happened to be a good thing for all parties.
Guo Xun was frightened by the most powerful brains of the National Policy Council, and other ministers were even more frightened - Guo Xun was sent to join the army after being there for more than a month.
The civil servants were also frightened by Guo Xun - he was talking nonsense and almost led the matter in Guangdong to think that Yang Tinghe wanted to marry Yuan Zonggao and the emperor, but the nature of it changed.
You don't know how to measure things at all! You are in a state of not being able to understand, speak out, and express your opinions blindly all day long. A little bitch got mixed up among a group of old foxes.
Looking at the emperor's serious expression and hearing the words "This life is not in vain" in his ears finally made Cui Yuan's heart tremble.
I used to know how to retreat when I was content, and that was because I was just the Prince Consort.
You see that I am very accurate, so you should also know that in the future, I will have the power, so maybe things will change.
Cui Yuan looked at the emperor and suddenly understood the truth, so he took a deep breath and bowed: "I accept the decree and thank you for your kindness and great hope. Long live your majesty! Long live! Long live your Majesty!"
Of course he can't live ten thousand years, but he can certainly outlive himself.
The emperor who could get other ministers to agree to this reward would be afraid of his own potential for rebellion?
You can’t lose your good character, Choi Won!
The old donkey is grinding away, determined to live forever!
…
"Who is this?" Guo Xun pointed at the people next to him and yelled hoarsely, "The Marquis of Xianning!"
Qiu Luan was wearing a short coat and linen.
"Now the first one to be reorganized is our Shenji Camp Central Army!" Guo Xun shouted at the top of his voice, "I, the former head of Zuofu, will be your camp officer! The Marquis of Xianning will be a small commander-in-chief.
!”
The school field is full of 5,000 soldiers. According to the old system, there are 3,600 infantry, 1,000 cavalry, and 400 artillery. The central military camp is divided into four divisions, each with a general, commonly known as the general.
The Marquis was in charge, and Qiu Luan tried his best to stretch his body that had not yet fully grown.
Rough guys have their own rough guys language. Guo Xun doesn't understand the ways of civil servants, but he still understands these.
After everyone was laughing and joking, he said with a straight face: "You are right! But whether you want to embroider pillows or not, I will try them one by one! Your Majesty orally!"
Five thousand soldiers knelt on one knee.
"I have only three requirements for the Beijing camp: strict military discipline! Dare to go to the battlefield! Be able to win the battle!"
He paused and then shouted: "In His Majesty's eyes, it turns out that you losers have no military discipline, dare not go to the battlefield, and cannot win the battle. Do you understand?"
The birds below are silent.
"So I and the Marquis of Xianning must come in person! If you can't meet your Majesty's three requirements, I will train you every day! If you do, I will return to the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion and you will be promoted! I issued a military order at the national policy meeting
Yes, if I can’t train in Beijing Camp, I will never go back in my life!”
Although the truth is untouchable, they don't dare to move now.
"Anyone who prevents me from going back to be a minister who participates in national policy meetings and is subordinate to one person but more than ten thousand people is my enemy!" Guo Xun shouted with gritted teeth, "Does anyone want to be my enemy?"
How dare you do this?
Although the reorganized Beijing camp soldiers have more money, they seem to be suffering a lot.
Sudden urgency to urinate.
"Do you want to be my enemy?" Guo Xun was very dissatisfied with the sparse voice, and there was a hint of domineering and viciousness in his voice.
"In no mood!"
"The voice is too young for me to hear clearly! Do you want to be my enemy?"
"In no mood!"
"Listless, do you want to do it?"
"In no mood!"
"Do you want to get promoted and make a fortune?"
"I don't want to!", "I want to!".
"You're all fucking idiots! Get some practice on me!"
He shouted so loudly that Guo Xun's throat became mute, his blood pressure increased, and his eyes became red.
I have just been sitting on the chair in the imperial study room for more than a month. I have just enjoyed the taste of being the first military general in the imperial court for a while, and my happiness is gone!
Who forced it?
Yang Tinghe!
But he also knew that in the past, he had collected money but failed to do the job well, so he had a handle.
Now he has figured it out, he must complete the job first and then collect the money. It doesn't matter if he has a little leverage, the important thing is to be loyal!
Your Majesty trusts me more than me!
"Everyone must be like Your Majesty. I can run at least five miles away with a stick of incense! Practice to death!"
I will go back again!
…
In the Forbidden City, let’s not take things seriously today, and the whole family is reunited.
There was a big banquet, and Queen Mother Zhang and Queen Xia were very nervous.
Things are different now. How violent has the capital been in the past few months? The emperor's skills have been fully exposed.
The fire of the Sun Jingmen is like a thorn. Although there is no sign of investigation so far, since it is a man-made disaster, it cannot be without results.
Empress Dowager Zhang knew it was not her, but she was not sure whether Yuan Jinsheng was involved in it, and she did not know whether her two younger brothers were audacious.
Now it was Yang Tinghe who was taking charge of the cleaning of the Huangzhuang store as the first assistant. Empress Dowager Zhang felt that life was getting harder and harder, but the palace was still very harmonious. The emperor would come to her place every morning and evening for running or walking.
Say hello.
None of my own sons can persist like this.
After months of fake smiles on the surface, Queen Mother Zhang felt that the flesh on her face would tremble involuntarily from time to time.
"His Majesty's Longevity Festival is next month, so we need to organize it well."
It was uncomfortable to sit awkwardly, so Empress Dowager Zhang raised a topic, and then looked at Empress Dowager Jiang who was sitting next to Empress Dowager Shao, who was already revered as the Empress Dowager: "My sister is blessed, and I am envious of Your Majesty's filial piety.
When the emperor was here, he did not come to my Renshou Palace every day like Your Majesty, and he was never short of studying in the morning and dusk. My sister taught me well."
"How dare you, how dare you, my sister is just blessed."
Zhu Houcong said with a smile on his face: "Brother Huang will tell you that it is not appropriate for me to make a big deal out of this Longevity Festival next month. There is no need for my aunt to feel sad. She will enjoy the honor and honor in the palace from now on. I will be filial as usual."
Empress Dowager Zhang really wanted to plead for mercy regarding the Huangzhuang Huangdian matter, but she did not dare to do so now.
If you want to stay in the Huangzhuang Huangdian a little longer, does that count as being uneasy about enjoying the honor?
With the dignity of the Queen Mother, she naturally lacks everything, but without a status, she always feels uneasy.
After all, her wisdom was not enough, and Zhu Houcong's strength in the outer court was too scary.
"After the Longevity Festival, Your Majesty is now sixteen years old. After the emperor's announcement, we can start planning for the draft." Queen Mother Zhang said again, "Although Your Majesty often comes to our Renshou Palace, there are only my mother-in-law and my daughter-in-law on weekdays.
We spend our days chatting. Now that your position is secure, Your Majesty should think about the prosperity of your heirs."
Now her hope lies in Xia, who was honored as Empress Zhuangsu. After hearing what Empress Dowager Zhang said, Xia also looked down with some anxiety to listen to the emperor's reaction.
"Next year." Zhu Houcong said, "My position is stable, but my body and bones are not yet stable. If you are too young, pregnancy and childbirth are also very dangerous. Auntie, the emperor's sister-in-law, don't worry, don't worry. I promise.
If you pass it, you will do it."
Mrs. Xia felt disappointed, and Empress Dowager Zhang could only smile reluctantly.
How come you, a kid, still know about the dangers of pregnancy and childbirth at a young age?
Wouldn't that mean we have to wait at least two or three years? During this period, I really don't know how many things will happen...
After the "family" banquet, Empress Dowager Zhang and Mrs. Xia left with their own thoughts, while Zhu Houcong sent Empress Dowager Shao, Empress Dowager Jiang and her elder sister and younger sister to Qingning Palace.
"Don't be anxious," Zhu Houcong said jokingly, "I will confer you the title of eldest princess first, and then you will get married after two years of being a princess."
Zhu Qingyuan was ashamed and happy, but the Empress Dowager Jiang said: "I am already seventeen years old! In two years, won't it be twenty?"
"My sister, are you still worried about getting married? Naturally, I have to carefully select a few first, and then I will let my sister take a look and see which one is more suitable to my heart."
Empress Dowager Jiang muttered a few words, and then warned: "I heard that Empress Dowager Zhang sent people out to pre-select ladies. Those people must not be selected to enter the palace!"
"My son knows. It was Qing Ping who said that the ones selected by Renshou Palace are all excellent ones. Of course, she said they are good at fertility and must be beautiful enough to catch my eye."
After Zhu Houcong said with a smile, he looked at Zhu Qingping who was accompanying him.
Empress Dowager Jiang looked at Zhu Qingping and said with some gratitude: "I haven't seen her for a few months and I have lost some weight. Fortunately, you came with me and took all the trouble."
There is no need to say rewards or anything, there will naturally be them.
Zhu Qingping responded and said she didn't dare, but she lost weight because she had been helping the emperor study the scriptures and couldn't talk about it - His Majesty had ordered that it be kept secret.
After staying in the renovated Qingning Palace for more than an hour, Zhu Houcong returned to Qianqing Palace accompanied by Huang Jin and Zhu Qingping.
"Go to Master Zhou's house tomorrow to say hello to me and let Master Zhou recover from his illness first."
Zhu Houcong first asked Huang Jin to visit Zhou Zhao tomorrow and reminded him to transfer Yuan Zonggao over first. Zhou Zhao had also tried his best before.
After a tiring journey, seventy-seven-year-old Zhou Zhao finally fell ill.
Huang Jin took the order and saw the emperor taking Zhu Qingping upstairs again.
Every night before going to bed, they were the only ones upstairs.
What are you doing?
The main hall of the Qianqing Palace is very large, but Zhu Houcong and Zhu Qingping were not very loud while studying the meaning of the scriptures.
Huang Jin felt a little embarrassed: If your Majesty has any luck, according to the rules, you should record it.
Didn’t you just say that your body’s bones are not stable?
…
After the next imperial dynasty, the national policy meeting was not held in the Zhongyuan Hall, but in the main hall of Qianqing Palace.
Cui Yuan came to attend for the first time, and the courtesy had been carried out before Chang Chao.
He has several sets of clothes now. Since he is attending the event as a representative of the Five Prefectures, he is wearing the official uniform of a military commander.
A little emotional.
His arrogance is not that he has no talent, but his father was eager to achieve success in one step, so he urged him to take this path.
His father, who had always been just a university student, despaired of the difficulty of the imperial examination, but Cui Yuan was always unwilling to do so.
But that was only back then, and it faded away later. Unexpectedly, now that I am forty-three, things have turned around again.
The Marquis of Jingshan was originally a virtual title granted to Cui Yuan's ancestors, with only a title but no certificate. Now it has been transferred to Cui Yuan in advance. The title and certificate are all available, but it cannot be hereditary.
Needless to say, I saw the princess when I returned home last night. It was partly a reunion after a long absence and partly a different identity. It was an unusual blend of fish and water, and an unusual combination of spirit and strength.
It's like something is coming back.
Looking around at this time, there were six cabinet ministers: Yang Tinghe, Jiang Mian, Mao Ji, Fei Hong, Shi Yue, and Sun Jiao.
Among the nine ministers, Chen Jin disappeared and was replaced by Zhang Lun, the original censor of Youdu.
Together with Yan Song and Wang Shouren, who replaced Yang Yiqing in the national policy meeting, the eighteen important ministers in the national policy meeting were divided into two sides.
As for the other bachelor who accompanied Yang Shen in the imperial study after Yang Shen left, it was Zhang Bi, a fellow student of the emperor and Yuan Zonggao.
"Xuan, the envoy of the imprisoned Franji enters the palace!"
The important ministers at the center of the Ming Empire all looked towards the entrance of the palace.
Zhu Houcong also narrowed his eyes slightly.
This is not the first official contact between East and West countries, but Zhu Houzhao was only interested in Franji language before.
Zhu Houcong was interested in more than just this.
The identity is probably true. After checking the records of the Ministry of Rites, there is a so-called letter of appointment and credentials from King Manuel I of France.
But maybe the Indian documents were used in advance, just to facilitate their Indian governor's expansion of colonization in Asia.
The weak ones are conquered by guns and cannons, while the strong ones are conquered by so-called ambassadors who first engage in diplomacy and try to develop trade.
Now, Portugal has occupied Malacca and is approaching the mouth of the Pearl River to take the first step of testing. The Ming Navy has just experienced its first battle with Portugal.
They were defeated, and they were planning a big victory in the next battle. According to Zhang Fujing's report, Wang Hong's injury had improved. The two were using businessmen as spies to get in touch with the Ming generals and sailors in the Portuguese fleet, trying to instigate rebellion and get Portugal
Intelligence about men, guns, and battleships.
Zhu Houcong was not anxious for them to win quickly, and had already issued an edict to delegate power and encourage them.
At this moment, this is also a battlefield.
What Zhu Houcong wanted to win was not the Portuguese who had become prisoners, but the eighteen national policy ministers whose ideas were still very old-fashioned.
