After Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling were watched by many people and their crotches almost started to get wet, Zhu Houcong opened his mouth and took the lead to walk to the Qianqing Palace.
A group of people followed uneasily. As they walked, Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling were naturally bypassed, as if they had turned into two stinking stones.
Although there is no evidence at the moment, who knows if His Majesty’s factory guards have any clues?
Since Your Majesty can have people surround the scene after the fire is extinguished and wait for them to see it, then maybe he really knows something.
Everything is guesswork.
Therefore, the two Zhang Heling brothers who stepped into the gate of Qianqing Palace felt as if they had stepped through the gate of hell. Zhang Yanling could not help but look at his brother with suspicion and fear.
Because Zhang Yanling knew very well that this matter had nothing to do with him.
But Zhang Heling and her sister... Zhang Yanling really couldn't explain clearly.
Who did this?
In the main hall of Qianqing Palace, Zhu Houcong walked to the throne, and the others naturally divided into civil and military groups.
The two brothers Zhang Heling were marquises, but other marquises naturally vacated the seats around them.
Taking advantage of the fact that the cabinet's bachelors and nine ministers, as well as the commander-in-chief of the five armies, were all present, the emperor spoke after the banquet was dismissed.
"If I am suspicious, the ministers will be in panic, and the elders will be in danger. Even if they are blamed, they still have to plan for life and death." Zhu Houcong sighed with a smile, "After the succession to the throne, the celestial phenomenon immediately warned. What a good excuse? If I were a suspicious person, this open fire would be easily extinguished, but the dark fire would burn even brighter."
A huge turmoil seems to have subsided - at least on the surface.
In this matter, the monarch and his ministers are truly united.
"I said it was a banquet." Zhu Houcong said with a smile, "Huang Jin, bring the charcoal stove over here. My clothes are wet all the way here, and the weather is cold. Wipe your face, toast your clothes, and go to the banquet easily. Just like Mr. Ge It is said that the fire was caused by the carelessness of the chamberlain and the overturning of the oil lamp."
After Zhu Houcong arrived outside Beijing, this was the most sincere sentence Yang Tinghe said, "Your Majesty is wise."
"Save money. In addition to not looking out of place, it doesn't have to be like other palaces. It just needs to change the layout and use it as a family home. The imperial dining room there doesn't need to be moved, so it still has some fireworks."
Now the young emperor's smile made Yan Song's eyes show admiration, made Yang Tinghe burst into tears, made Yuan Zonggao exhale a long breath, and made other people's hearts drop a little.
This is the only thing you can write on your daily life note.
As soon as he said these words, there was an eerie silence in the palace for a moment.
How can a minister respond to the emperor's claim that he wants to have "as few desires" as possible, especially after he was almost burned to death today?
Then, many pairs of eyes glanced at Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling involuntarily.
Future generations will have their own opinions, not to mention that even at this time, Yan Song had to admire the unusual calmness and rationality of this young emperor.
Because after that, everyone really competed with each other immediately.
Think about it, you arrived in the capital and became the emperor, you didn’t want to adopt the family and you had a quarrel with the ministers, and suddenly the wall in front of your house was burned down.
Li Hao, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, had been impeached before. Now that he wanted to sell well to Zhu Houcong, he immediately expressed his attitude to the emperor: Xiu!
Then, the banquet began.
Emperor Zhengde had no heir for many years. If there was any foresight, even if this possibility had been possible many years ago, what would it mean to ambush a few dead soldiers in the palace?
Why not just stab him?
Only when a storm breaks out in the court and the emperor and his ministers become disloyal can some people make plans calmly and once again establish a new emperor who is in their interests.
"It doesn't cost much money to rebuild the Rijing Gate and clean up the Qingning Palace. However, the Qianqing Palace is prone to fire, and it is not convenient for me to summon foreign ministers in the inner palace. I intend to place the palace on the west side of the Yuehua Gate, in front and behind the imperial dining room. It was converted into a side hall with a special layout, not the main hall. The hood on the south side of the imperial dining room near the Longzong Gate was opened as the imperial study room, which was still considered the former dynasty, and would be there in the future Yan dynasty; The Heart Palace, if I am late at night studying or reviewing memorials, I can sleep there, it is considered the inner palace."
Yang Tinghe sighed silently in his heart: How could a child be so cunning and come to discuss this matter after what happened today?
Yang Tinghe immediately had tears in his eyes, and he knelt down with great relief and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty is so wise and solemn, and I am inexplicably impressed by it! Your Majesty is considerate of me, and I am ashamed. Today I know that your Majesty is so broad-minded!"
Yang Tinghe and others breathed a sigh of relief. If they wanted to build the cloud platform tall and majestic, it would cost millions of taels of silver.
No one is stopping it now. After all, the emperor said that the Qianqing Palace was "easy" to catch fire. The purpose of building the Yangxin Palace was to build more Yan dynasties besides the Chang Dynasty. This was a good thing.
"Yangxin Hall?" Yang Tinghe wondered why it was called this.
When the emperor is jealous, how much sanity is left?
The butcher's knife is dancing wildly, and if the ministers are wronged and fall under the emperor's sword, everyone will be in danger.
If it was just built as a family home, even though the materials used by the royal family were much better, the cost would only be 10% or 20%: after all, the place is not big in total.
Zhu Houcong sat on the throne and looked at the top group of civil and military officials below.
The small desk was placed in the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, and the highest-ranking civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty gathered together and had a great conversation - except for Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling (this sentence is not recorded).
The two of them occupied a few bricks of land and stood there shivering.
Of course, Yan Song didn't think the emperor would care about such superficial smearing.
"...Your Majesty is Holy Ming."
"Mencius said that the best way to nourish one's mind is to have few desires." Zhu Houcong said with a smile, "Since this is where I study and manage politics, what do you think of this name?"
Everyone is happy.
Touching.
Zhu Houcong has always been serious about his words, and everyone can understand this.
Yang Tinghe was concerned about money: "I wonder what kind of regulations do you want to modify this Yangxin Palace to?"
Can homes be searched every year?
Are you in the mood to laugh?
But Zhu Houcong laughed: "Mr. Yang Ge, I'm afraid that the person who came up with this idea didn't expect that I and my ministers have truly become one and the same and care about each other. Do you think so or not?"
His Majesty was afraid that the ministers would be worried, so he specially asked the Dukes and Counts, Prince Consort and other relatives, cabinet bachelors and nine ministers who attended the meeting to go to the scene of the fire in Qianqing Palace to investigate. It turned out that the servant on duty accidentally tipped over the oil lamp and caused the fire. .Fortunately, it was raining heavily and the fire was quickly put out.
He has entered the adult state of dividing interests so quickly. He is still a truly mature adult, not a naive giant baby.
Zhu Houcong waved his hand: "Repairing the Qingning Palace is simple, and the Yangxin Palace won't cost much according to my idea. Let's discuss the more important expenses first. For the reconstruction of the three major camps within three years, at least another additional amount should be set aside every year. Recruiting 50,000 elite soldiers for one year's pay will restore the three battalions to the scale of the Jingtai period, when the ten regiments and battalions totaled 150,000 capable soldiers. The reserve military pay in the secret treasury was prepared for war, but this routine must be included in itself planned expenditures.”
Yan Song and Liu Long, who had slowly figured it out and was frightened, looked at each other.
From the perspective of an important minister, I naturally hope that this situation will not occur. What if one day my home is raided?
But once this happened today, the incident of the Sun Jing Sect roasting the Holy Emperor, which was covered up on the surface, naturally could not really end like this.
Yan Song looked at the smiling emperor with deep admiration in his eyes.
After today's incident, the emperor criticized "the cabinet ministers would not be so naive if they took action", and then suppressed the overwhelming anger to keep the court stable and state affairs first, and what he did next, Yan Song will record it one by one. of.
Yang Tinghe and others immediately understood the key point: "Your Majesty, how can this person with no qualifications be able to have it every year? Aren't the three major battalions that have been reorganized from the Shangzhi Guards outside the Beijing army reorganized or selected from various guards? Want to recruit troops?"
Your Majesty has a clear view of the calculations behind the fire on people's hearts. How could a fifteen-year-old see so clearly?
The young emperor, whose life was in danger, lived in the forbidden palace without a stable foundation. On the tenth day after he ascended the throne, he encountered a fire at the door of his house. How many people can not be suspicious?
The emperor who was destined by destiny was protected by the gods and Buddhas in the sky and the ancestors. His majesty was safe and sound, and he was not even frightened. He attended the imperial meeting as scheduled and gave a banquet to the civil and military officials to appease the ministers.
"You're all here, let's discuss the arrangements for Qian Ning and Jiang Bin who have no family assets today."
check?
Naturally, there will be a thorough investigation, but someone who can calculate to this point will not leave any clues, right? This is what a very smart person like Yan Song would want to get.
It just so happens that the two brothers Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling have both money and many tricks!
Are His Majesty and Yang Ge always singing along and deliberately acting?
This time Guo Xun looked at the Zhang brothers with much kinder eyes and a smile.
Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling: Guo Xun is a common man...
