The emperor was young, so he immediately changed the daily dynasty to one every five days. The six imperial censors met in the Wenhua Hall once every seven days, and the three ministers of the cabinet took turns to go to the Wenhua Hall to coordinate the affairs.
Such earth-shattering news almost overshadowed the military situation of the previous defeat of the Xuanfu army, and caused countless waves in the capital. Thinking of the time when Yongren was declared, the emperor often summoned cabinet ministers and ministers to discuss important matters.
After the restoration of Emperor Yingzong during the Tianshun period, he often
When Li Xian was announced to discuss government affairs, some knowledgeable people burst into tears. They deeply felt that although Zhu Houzhao was confused in small matters, he was not sloppy in major matters. However, more mature and prudent old ministers such as Liu Jian, the chief minister of the cabinet, thought of
However, this matter will cause earth-shaking changes in the structure of the court.
Although the Chenghua Emperor pampered Concubine Wan Gui to open the West Factory, granted officials arbitrarily and promised to remove thousands of ministers, and appointed Wan'an Liu Ji and other people who were popular with others, the important affairs of the court gradually fell under the control of the cabinet and ministries.
The senior members of the hospital make the decision, and the emperor will not interfere easily
.Nowadays, Zhu Houzhao summons many officials from the ministers to the chief ministers every day. Needless to say, the government orders are smooth, but the lower-level officials have more hopes to see the emperor. Who can guarantee those low-level Beijing officials who hope to advance to the next level?
What words will be said?
Moreover, if the emperor remains tough on everything and those people agree to flatter him, it will be even harder for them to do things!
However, Zhu Houzhao would not consider the dilemma that those big bosses would face after holding their noses and passing the court reform. The first thing he did after he ascended the throne was finally accomplished, and he was naturally overjoyed. Therefore, he was extremely happy.
, that night he drank two cups alone. When he was slightly drunk, he felt bored. He dropped the wine glass and staggered for two steps. He suddenly looked at a waiter on the side and asked: "I remember, Xu Xun is tomorrow
Leaving early in the morning?"
"Reporting to your Majesty, it is exactly that. The war situation in Xuanfu is changing rapidly, and Duke Baoguo has sent another letter to urge you."
"Urge, urge, urge, he knows how to urge, there are so many people in the Xuan Mansion and he has brought so many generals and colonels, but he still has the nerve to reach out to the people around me!" Zhu Houzhao curled his lips in annoyance, and suddenly felt that the heat in his body was relieved.
Collar, he took off his robe in a ball and threw it on the ground. Then he said, "There is also Han Wen, who keeps asking me for money. I am ascending the throne."
I want to reward my servants. This money is theirs and not mine. He comes to cry for poverty: The late emperor’s mausoleum needs to be built. This is a rule that must be followed by all dynasties and generations. He also laments for poverty: And I want to get married.
This was the late emperor's order before he died, but he still came to cry for poverty! Poor, poor, sorry, he just couldn't bear to see me spending my own money to build a palace in Xiyuan, so everything should be blamed on me?"
The little emperor suddenly had two top ministers, one military and one civil. The several ministers looked at each other for a while and no one dared to say a word. Zhu Houzhao was promoted from the prince to the emperor. The ministers in the East Palace have risen one by one, and now most of them have become
For the eunuchs in charge of the twenty-four yamen, the work of personal service gradually fell to them, the younger generation. However, they did not have the affection to be companions, and they still have no idea of the temper of the little emperor. Who would dare to rashly advise what to say?
?
Zhu Houzhao was cursing and losing his temper for a while. When no one answered him, he gradually became bored and cursed angrily: "Everyone of you is like a fool. What's the point of raising you?"
"If the Emperor feels that they are not capable of serving you, I will replace you with a few others!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a voice coming from behind. When he turned around and saw that it was Liu Jin, he ignored the silence of the underlings and reached out his hand angrily: "Where did you die and only left behind?"
These wooden people are standing in front of me, and I can't even find anyone to talk to!"
"Didn't I think that the weather is hot now, so I went to the imperial kitchen to order some ice cream?" Liu Jin smiled and took a silver bowl from the little fireman next to him, and carefully placed it in front of Zhu Houzhao. Seeing the little emperor,
He picked up the silver spoon and took a large spoonful and put it in his mouth. He immediately showed great joy and said with a smile on his face, "Your Majesty, do you feel better?"
"Yeah, you understand what I'm thinking!" Zhu Houzhao felt a piece of coldness slipping from his throat into his stomach. He let out a long sigh of contentment, praised him, and ate several more spoonfuls without raising his head, and finally put it down.
He lowered his silver spoon and said, "Liu Jin, go find out when Xu Xun will leave tomorrow. I'm going to see him off!"
"Ah?" If it were anyone else, they would have tried hard to persuade him when they heard this, but Liu Jin was stunned for a moment and then immediately laughed, "The emperor really trusts Mr. Xu. But I want to ask the emperor to tell me whether I should go incognito or show off."
Appreciate driving?"
Seeing that Zhu Houzhao was hesitant after hearing this, Liu Jin struck the iron while the iron was hot and explained: "Go incognito. The emperor only needs to take the name of the prince from Shouning Houfu or Jianchanghoufu. But if it is a show of appreciation, this servant will
You have to go to the Inspector of the Shangyi Supervisor of the Appraisal Bureau, and then you have to go to the Cabinet and the Six Ministries of the Inspectorate to ask the Shuntian Prefecture's Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Department to prepare to clean the streets..."
"Okay, okay!" When Zhu Houzhao heard that it was such a trouble, he immediately shook his head like a rattle, "I won't show off, so I will just go see him off incognito. Don't have too many people, just ask Shanggu to use Ma Yongcheng and the others."
, keep Gao Banpan to sit in the palace, and avoid those from the Chief of Ceremonies who come to make noise when they have nothing to do, especially Wang Yue!"
With the emperor's words, Liu Jin naturally made a series of intensive arrangements. Fortunately, it was not yet the second day of June for the West Corner Gate to take charge of matters. Wenhua Palace summoned the cabinet ministers also started on the second day of June. The little emperor Zhu Houzhao
If you want to sneak out, you only need to pass the level of Empress Dowager Zhang, and there will be no obstacle. Empress Zhang has always been used to doting on Zhu Houzhao. That night, she heard that her son was going to see Xu Xun off. Although she felt it was against the rules, she just nodded his head.
He said a few words of anger.
"You are the emperor now, and you must learn from your father. Don't behave like before. Although Xu Xun thinks of you in everything, you can't live without the majesty of an emperor. It's like
I'll see him off tomorrow, what do you want to say?"
Empress Dowager Zhang just asked this and did not mention what Zhu Houzhao should say. Therefore, early the next morning, Zhu Houzhao was still struggling with what he should say until he left Zhuo Chengmen.
He granted officials and made wishes. He made wishes to Xu Xun more than once and twice. The other party kept refusing to be humble and obviously not enthusiastic: he would reward him with gold and silver, and Xu Xun was still planning to create a rich internal treasury for him.
Rewarding those few dollars is a joke: and when it comes to rewarding a few beautiful palace maids, he is afraid that his sister Shen will get angry and punch him a few times!
So, when Xu Xun heard the news on the official road and hurried over to salute deeply, he helped Xu Xun up with one hand, thought about it and said solemnly: "Xu Xun, this time you go to Xuanfu, it is not only related to
your own name
, as well as the names of me and the late emperor. If you want someone or something, you can tell me directly, and I will satisfy you no matter what method you use. When you return in triumph, I will not only celebrate your success, but also grant you a marriage.
of!"
Zhu Houzhao didn't care about the shocked expressions of the eunuchs around him, but he put his hands behind his back and said, "I told you before that one day I would go to see the great rivers and mountains of the Ming Dynasty, but now I don't have the opportunity."
Yes, but you have already found a good opportunity, so don’t let this God-given opportunity pass you by and teach those Tatars who are spying on the Ming Dynasty a lesson! You used to have a way of doing everything, and I believe you can succeed immediately this time!"
The little emperor's words were definitely not that much of an emperor's scheming, nor could they be said to be very generous, but Xu Xun felt moved in his heart. All those irritations and uncertainties before were put aside by him now, and he
Almost without thinking, he bowed to the ground and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will do my best and live up to His Majesty's expectations!"
"I knew you wouldn't let me down!"
This sonorous and powerful sentence aroused his emotions again. For a moment, Zhu Houzhao reached out and patted Xu Xun on the shoulder. Seeing that many soldiers on the other side were looking here, he looked at Zhang Yongdao again:
"Zhang Yong, please follow me out this time.
You must work together with Xu Xun, report what should be reported, don't hide it, remember that I am there for everything! As long as it is right, no matter what big thing it is, I will make the decision for you from behind. I am not
Will believe that three people can become an emperor!"
Zhang Yongfu had served Zhu Houzhao for so many years, and he knew the character of the little emperor very well, so when he heard this last promise, he felt that he had let go of the biggest stone in his heart. After bowing to accept the promise, he glanced sideways at Liu Jin and others, and then lowered his head.
He turned his head and said: "Your Majesty, I don't know how long it will take for this servant to come back. Please take care of yourself. This servant has no choice but to leave this matter to Lao Liu, Lao Gu, Lao Ma and the others.
………”
"Screw you, if you weren't here, would we be hungry and freezing at the banquet?" Liu Jin knew that Zhu Houzhao never sticks to trivial matters, so she said solemnly, "Not only will we serve the emperor well, but we will never let the emperor suffer from those bosses.
Human anger!"
"I have people like you, so why worry about the failure of great things!" Zhu Houzhao was filled with joy after hearing this, and he was very high-spirited for a moment. "Today I will personally send you off on your journey. When you come back from your work, I will personally pick you up!"
"Your Majesty, please take care of me!"
Xu Xun glanced sideways at Liu Jin, and when he saw Liu Jin giving him a sign of peace of mind, he bowed deeply to Zhu Houzhao again. When the little emperor nodded happily, he turned around and got on the horse.
As Zhang Yong gradually caught up behind him and drove forward, he finally couldn't help but glance back halfway, only to find that Zhu Houzhao was still there, waving gently at him.
At that moment, he deeply felt that although he had only been in the Ming Dynasty for just over a year, this year and more was far more exciting than the previous decades. He looked at the world with cold eyes and was full of enthusiasm to reward his friends, even if he died here.
Xuanfu had no choice but to make some achievements to show those bosses!
