"Emperor, why don't you speak?" After leaving the Renshou Palace, Concubine Shao was a little worried as she sat in the warm sedan chair and stretched out her hand.
Zhu Houcong stretched out his hand to hold it while walking beside her sedan, and said with a smile: "I have never been here before, but I am curious to look around."
"It's so dark, what can you see? I asked my grandmother to go with you to the Queen Mother today. My grandmother has been worried for a long time. It was only when she thought that my grandson was already the emperor that she felt relieved... But today she was reckless!"
Zhu Houcong thought the same thing. He, a person who had not been influenced by palace politics, could come up with some ideas. How could he not understand that Concubine Shao could live from the Chenghua Dynasty to today?
"It's not reckless. Some things are better if they are explained clearly earlier. My grandson is the emperor now, and the great officials in the palace still have to rely on my grandson to survive their old age. Of course, my grandson only did this when he was sure. It's just tiring.
I’m going to visit my grandma, and in a few days I’ll clear out the bathroom area and have to move it there again.”
"Grandma can't see it, it's the same everywhere." Concubine Shao was very happy with her grandson's thoughtfulness. "Although grandma can't see it, she knows through her fingers that the emperor looks strong. Since we talked about the draft wedding today, let's let this
Let's make the harem lively as soon as possible. This way, you don't have to look around at night and see nothing."
Zhu Houcong was a little embarrassed: "My grandson is not even fifteen yet!"
"I know, I know, next year. Your imperial brother's funeral ceremony has not yet been completed, so naturally this matter will not start immediately. I estimate that it will have to wait until at least the end of the year or even the beginning of next year. For this draft, the ancestral family method is selected from the folk, and there are eight levels in total.
It’s over. When three people selected from the five thousand people are presented to you and you choose one to be your queen, you will be sixteen or seventeen years old by then and can start a family!"
Zhu Houcong did not resist, and now he is not like he was when he first arrived. His body, which is fourteen years old, is already full of blood.
For Zhu Houcong, it doesn't matter if he loses his virginity early, as long as he has the self-control not to indulge.
Now that the power struggle is so tense, he feels that he doesn't have much energy to indulge in it.
Adults still know how to take a long-term view, but if young people don’t know the essence...
Thinking of this, and recalling the gleaming eyes of the maid who was serving Concubine Shao at Empress Dowager Zhang's side, Zhu Houcong smiled and shook his head again.
Empress Dowager Zhang... Do you want her to give birth to a son as soon as possible and adopt him, or do you have other motives?
I, Zhu Houcong, can I catch a palace maid and fall into it?
To be honest, he couldn't figure it out. Why should he test it like this?
Is the age of fifteen so confusing? Or is everything that has been shown been misunderstood as the work of the staff, and the true colors will be revealed after entering the palace?
After entering Weiyang Palace and sitting down, Concubine Shao whispered: "Don't be careless! The dirty tricks in this palace are really hard to guard against. You have to be careful about your food, clothing, housing and transportation!"
Zhu Houcong nodded: "My grandson knows that he is surrounded by people brought by Anlu now."
Is it possible for the emperor who has just ascended the throne to be murdered?
Zhu Houcong did not dare to say that there was no such thing at all, but he knew that the more shrewd he appeared, the more he would be wary of anyone who had other intentions.
Since Empress Dowager Zhang was testing her head with matters related to Weiyang Palace, how could Zhu Houcong endure it first?
Although he was not 100% sure, he was quite certain that Wei Bin and the others had to rely on themselves to save their lives.
Otherwise, under such circumstances, should we contact the vassal king, Yang Ting and them to cause a palace coup?
Zhu Houcong had already thought about how to win over and win over the remaining eunuchs of the Zhengde Dynasty in the palace.
After talking for a while, Zhu Houcong left Weiyang Palace and walked slowly towards Qianqing Palace.
Maifu followed behind him and heard Zhu Houcong say: "I will transfer Lu Song to one of the five Jinyi Guards School Lieutenants, and he will be appointed as Zheng Qianhu. I will let Zhang Yong decide which post he will be transferred to after he returns from me." "
"I obey the decree." Mai Fu's heart trembled.
"I'll make a register with you in the Royal Horse Prison first."
"I will do my best to get the job done!"
Mai Fu was ecstatic. Does this mean his path has been planned?
Mai Fu didn't study as much as Zhang Zuo and Huang Jin, so it was difficult for him to get into the Ceremony Supervisor. But if he could get the palm seal of the Royal Horse Supervisor, it would mean that he would become the admiral of a forbidden army - the Warrior Battalion in the future.
In the early years, this army was only the "Three Thousand Households of Habayashi". After the Tumu Fort Incident, it made great contributions in the defense of the capital. It has grown to a total number of more than 40,000 people!
Zhu Houcong arranged this matter and continued to think about safety issues.
The security of the palace includes, first, food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and second, the protection of the palace and the military power of the capital.
After he returned to Qianqing Palace, he said to Huang Jin: "Call Wei Bin, Gu Dayong, Zhang Yong and others."
…
The excitement in the capital during the day has not completely dissipated. Today, the great emperor came out of the city to welcome him, and the subsequent enthronement ceremony showed that the Ming Dynasty has entered a new era.
Lu Song, the official of the Imperial Guards Department, has not yet been promoted to a new official position, but in the temporary residence arranged for him by the Ministry of Rites, Lu Song has sent batches of guests away.
Those who came to establish friendship with him were all military attaches or honorary stewards.
Among the military attachés, most of them are middle-level officers currently in the Jinyi Guards.
Lu Song himself was already in the sixth rank, and his hereditary official position was the Chief Banner Officer of the Jinyiwei. The most likely arrangement for entering the capital this time was to serve as an official in the Jinyiwei.
Based on the merits of Qiandi's former ministers, he started from a thousand households at least this time. Either he served as the emperor's guard in the five core offices, or he was sent to the north and south to pacify.
As for the future, as long as there are no big mistakes, I am afraid that sooner or later, I will become the commander of the Imperial Guard.
How could they not pay a visit to such a person first?
Lu Song didn't dare to accept any gifts, he just got to know these people first.
Finally closing the door on the excuse of being tired from the journey, Lu Bing watched his father approach with anxiety.
"Listen to your Majesty, study hard after you go there tomorrow and take the martial arts exam." Lu Song told him expectantly, "Don't look at them all coming to fawn over dad, but the future of the Lu family does not depend on dad, but on you. !My father has little knowledge and little ability. Your Majesty said, your father and I are more than loyal, but I can’t play with those old fritters in Jinyiwei. Therefore, you must listen to Eunuch Wei’s arrangements, don’t tell others your identity, and just treat yourself as an ordinary person. , learn your skills well, you know?"
"...The son can't bear to leave his father."
Lu Bing has never experienced this battle. He has neither been separated from his family nor Zhu Houcong in the past twelve years.
Zhu Houcong can't be seen now, and even his father won't be able to see him tomorrow.
Lu Song slapped him on the forehead: "Man, don't say such cowardly words! Go to bed early and I'll send you there early tomorrow morning! The promotion of my hereditary official position in the Lu family will all depend on you in the future. His Majesty said
If you want to take the martial arts exam, you must take it! If you fail the exam, I will break your legs!"
