Wei Bin's proposal, through supporting Liang Chu, made Yang Tinghe have to weigh one or two things.
Besides, if Liang Chu went to welcome the new king, Yang Tinghe would not be without benefits.
Why do you, Yang Tinghe, need to take the credit? Further control of the court is more important.
Before the new king came to the throne, there was no longer any dispute between Liang Chu and Yang Tinghe in the cabinet. Wouldn't it be convenient for Yang Tinghe to do things?
The eunuch in charge, Gu Dayong, who was best able to connect the eunuchs together, left the capital, and two more eunuchs, the eunuchs, also left. The remaining eunuch, Zhang Yong, won an important job and would not be a naysayer. He also expressed his intention to help the cabinet.
What other constraints does Yang Tinghe have?
Liang Chu couldn't help but look at Wei Bin, with a hint of a discerning smile on his lips.
Empress Dowager Zhang spoke at the right time: "Mr. Liang Ge is indeed the best choice."
Hearing this, Yang Tinghe could only salute behind the curtain and looked at Wei Bin quietly for a moment, with an expression that showed nothing.
After this pause, he continued: "Among the current ministers, the military ministers should send Xu Guangzuo, the Duke of Ding, and the civil ministers can send Mao Cheng, the Minister of Rites. On the way, they can work with Mr. Liang Ge to familiarize the prince with the ceremony of enthroning."
Wei Bin immediately spoke: "Among the relatives of the country...the Queen Mother can send Hou Ninghou and Prince Consort Cui Yuan to go."
Shouning Hou Zhang Heling was the younger brother of Empress Dowager Zhang, and Cui Yuan was the brother-in-law of Emperor Xiaozong.
What is important is that Emperor Xiaozong's sister, Princess Yongkang, did not marry Cui Yuan until the sixth year of Hongzhi, and she grew up in front of Empress Dowager Zhang.
Sure enough, Queen Mother Zhang immediately nodded and said: "This arrangement is very good!"
Yang Tinghe took a deep look at Wei Bin, showed a kind smile, and then said: "In that case, we should quickly prepare a final edict."
A "posthumous edict" was issued under the leadership of Yang Tinghe and the Queen Mother.
There are countless battles and concessions surrounding the selection of the new monarch and the selection of the fawning group.
Now that Liang Chu has the merit to welcome him, the eunuchs can finally speak or go to welcome him with their approval. Yang Tinghe has no constraints, and the queen mother's brother and brother-in-law can also be in front of the new king.
Show your face.
Everyone is very satisfied.
After a busy period, it was already the early morning of March 15th.
"Admiral Weiwu Tuan Lianying Jiang Bin, Minister of Rites Mao Cheng, and Minister of Works Li Hao please see me!"
There was a voice outside the hall, and everyone in the hall exchanged looks.
After the death of Emperor Zhengde, the first minister to be purged was standing outside the palace.
…
After getting up early in the Xingwang Palace, Zhu Houcong went to greet his mother-in-law Jiang as usual, and then prepared to go to the school grounds in the palace.
This was renovated after he came here.
Although Lao Qin had always complained about Jiajing's great health and that the "elixir" he had been using for most of his life could still reign for forty-five years, Zhu Houcong did not dare not pay attention to his health.
Anyway, as the prince, he can't do anything else for the time being.
Zhu Houcong actually had a biological brother, but he died five days after he was born.
In addition to the current elder sister and younger sister born to Jiang, he originally had two older sisters born to Wang, the concubine of King Xingxian.
It's a pity that neither of the two sisters lived past the age of ten.
From Zhu Houcong's observation, the palace was actually quite harmonious.
Wang gave birth to a daughter, so there was no dispute.
Considering the conditions of the Prince's Palace, the survival rate of young children is so low. Can Zhu Houcong exercise well?
As soon as he left the Fengxiang Palace where the Jiang family lived, Lu Bing, his younger brother who was three years younger than Zhu Houcong, came over to greet him. He looked excited and sneaky and whispered: "Father asked me to tell His Highness which wealthy businessman Jie Changshi is looking for now."
There’s a lot of money out there!”
Zhu Houcong's face darkened.
His sister is almost seventeen years old and has reached the age to get married in this era.
There are still eight months left before the end of the mourning period. When the mourning period ends, Zhu Houcong will seize the throne according to the rules, and he will be old enough to get married by then.
Now he was the only male in the palace. Affected by Prince Ning's rebellion, the Jiang family was actually very worried that the emperor would find a reason to hold him back, and then find some excuse for Zhu Houcong to be demoted to a county prince.
He took the opportunity of the Spring Festival to express his congratulations to the court to ask for instructions on conferring a royal title after the period of filial piety. He had not heard back yet. He and his sister were also preparing for their marriage. All these were left to the person in charge of the palace.
The official who has the power to request memorials from the imperial court is responsible for it.
What Jiang was worried about was that the prince was demoted and that the current left-hand minister of the palace, Shi Xie Changjie, was using this matter to enrich himself.
The princess's mother's family and the princess' husband-in-law Yibin's family can be regarded as "royal relatives". Families who want to take the imperial examination and become officials are not willing to get married because their ancestors restrict relatives from entering politics. But the Zhu family clan
Wealthy businessmen flock to enjoy the preferential treatment in taxes.
Lao Qin once said that the later eunuch Feng Bao took money from a wealthy businessman and actually married the emperor's sister to a tuberculosis man. She became a widow right after the marriage and remained a virgin until her death.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Zhu Houcong calmed down: "I know. As usual, morning exercise, breakfast and reading!"
"Your Highness, can I stop studying?" Lu Bing made a sad face.
"Then let me talk to Lu Dianzhan?"
The cub Lu Bing suddenly wilts: "I read, read!"
"You must read the book well!" Zhu Houcong raised his head and looked at the rising sun, "It will be useful in the future."
Lu Bing scratched his head.
Why do you need to read so many books to be the prince's attendant?
It’s not like I want to be a long-time master.
Lu Bing is the Lu Xiaozongqi that Huang Jin mentioned last night. The Jinyiwei Zongqi officer is a hereditary official position saved by the military family of the Lu family.
Ever since Grandpa Lu Bing followed King Xingxian to Anlu to become a vassal, the Lu family has always been the confidants of the royal guards and honor guards.
Lu Bing's father is now a Dianzhan. This official position is the sixth rank, which is higher than the hereditary general banner of the seventh rank.
Twelve-year-old Lu Bing did not understand how limitless his future was.
Zhu Houcong was not busy dealing with Xie Changjie. Now everyone in the palace was working around his identity as a future "prince" and did not know that there would be even more outrageous possibilities.
Zhu Houzhao had no idea when exactly Zhu Houzhao died.
Now he just runs as usual, does radio gymnastics, pull-ups, etc., and also practices archery.
As Lu Bing comes from the Jinyiwei family, he has to practice even more.
Lu Bing was very active in playing with bows, horses, and swords. But studying after breakfast was like torture to him.
This is normal, just a twelve-year-old child.
After breakfast, Ji Shan from the Prince's Ji Shan Institute went to Zhu Houcong's study.
The Ji Shan Institute is a department under the jurisdiction of the Palace Chief Shi Si, and its responsibilities are only to regulate etiquette and teach the king to be good.
Zhou Zhao's hair and beard were both white and old. Now he is seventy-seven years old and serves as Jishan of the Prince's Palace. He is a civil servant of the eighth rank.
"Your Majesty, will you continue to talk about "Huidian" today?"
"Master Zhou." Zhu Houcong saluted seriously, "I have already read through the etiquette books that I will talk about today. If you have any questions, please ask Master Zhou to teach me."
The studious Prince Wang was very popular with old scholars like Zhou Zhao - even though he was only a scholar.
However, the prince was studying calligraphy and classics diligently last year and two years ago, but since this year he has been studying the Ming Dynasty canon and system seriously, which makes Zhou Zhao a little worried.
Zhu Houcong studied very seriously.
After traveling through time, the mysterious and mysterious things like the original personality and thinking habits were covered by him, but his flexible mind and original memories were still there.
After Zhu Houcong felt that his choice of words and expressions were sufficient, he no longer studied the Confucian classics.
But this "Huidian" has to be studied carefully.
The prototype of this book was the "Zhu Si Zhang" arranged by Zhu Yuanzhang. Later, during the reign of Zhu Houcong's uncle, Xiaozong Zhu Youtang, the father of Emperor Zhengde, he systematically compiled it and named it "Da Ming Huidian". By the Zhengde period,
It was revised again, so it is now also called "Zhengde Huidian".
The book systematically stipulates many administrative regulations and rules and regulations of the Ming Dynasty in detail. Can Zhu Houcong study it carefully?
Lu Bing listened to Mr. Zhou's words with a constipated look on his face and felt drowsy.
Between the rules and regulations and the Four Books and Five Classics, I couldn’t tell which one was more boring.
After Zhou Zhao finished answering Zhu Houcong's questions, he looked at the listless Lu Bing and said to them: "I have something I want to ask the prince. You go and wait outside first."
Once a person is old enough, even the emperor must respect him.
Although Zhou Zhao was only an eighth-rank official in the palace, he received the same salary as Shi, the largest official in the palace. This was King Xingxian's reward and respect for him.
Lu Bingzheng was eager to relax and hurriedly went to play in the courtyard with Huang Jin.
Zhou Zhao solemnly closed the door, came to Zhu Houcong and saluted solemnly: "Your Highness, I have been lecturing and reading the ceremony for your Highness for many days. Since I have the duty of regulating and admonishing, I have worries in my heart, so I have to ask today."
Previously, Zhu Houcong treated him as a student, but now Zhou Zhao treated him as an official.
"His Highness has said before that he will be granted the title of king after he is released from prison. If he is not familiar with the rules and regulations, I am afraid that everything will be disrespectful. I am very happy for His Highness's prudent concerns." Zhou Zhao's eyes were full of insights into the world.
The general light is, "However, Your Highness is more attentive to all official duties, but he is negligent in ordinary sectarian affairs and royal palace rituals. Although today I asked about the prince's sealing ceremony, he also paid a lot of attention to the crown prince's rituals and even the ceremony of ascending to the throne.
Out of concern. Although it is called curiosity, I boldly asked the Crown Prince: Is there anyone who is trying to trick the Crown Prince into looking north?"
