In the middle of the spring of the seventeenth year of Jingtai, there was a severe drought in the Shanxi section of the Yellow River.
Zhu Qiyu ordered disaster relief.
The ministers recommended Tang Sheng, the right minister of the Ministry of War, to go to Shanxi to take charge of the disaster relief work. Zhu Qiyu had already heard Zhu Jianji remind him, how could he really let Tang's relatives build a Yellow River stone man?
Refuted.
He sent Lu Yuan, the right minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, to Shanxi to provide disaster relief, and also appointed Liu Ji to assist Lu Yuan in editing the Hanlin Academy.
After Lu Huan entered the palace, he was taught etiquette by Queen Hang.
Lu Yuan was also promoted because of his daughter.
He was transferred from the left counselor of the General Affairs Department to the Ministry of Household Affairs and served as a doctor.
From the fifth grade to the fifth grade.
It looks like he was demoted.
In fact, it was from the General Affairs Department to the real power department of the Six Ministries Center, which is considered a high promotion.
Later, the former right minister of the household department was transferred to another place to serve as chief secretary, and Lu Yuandeng was transferred to the right minister of the household department.
The intention is obvious.
Cultivate power for the prince.
But in the eyes of the officials, this move had another interpretation: Lu Huan would become the crown prince's concubine sooner or later, and the crown prince's concubine Bai Li was a criminal and had a bad background. His Majesty's vigorous promotion of Lu Yuan should be to build momentum for Lu Huan to ascend to the throne.
There was a conflict between the Crown Prince and His Majesty last year, and the consequences were considerable.
The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess have a deep relationship, but Your Majesty has to find a way to replace him with the Crown Princess.
Now it's time to change the princess.
Will you change your savings in the future?
Probably!
Moreover, King Fu Zhu Jianji was very sensible and well-behaved. Whenever he went to the Qianqing Hall to pay his respects to His Majesty, he received a large number of rewards, making King Fu look like the one sitting in the East Palace.
On the contrary, the real master of the East Palace has not been very active since he had a falling out with His Majesty.
But there was no delay in making money.
In order to "pursue the rebel party," the "Donggong" trading house controlled by Bai Gui's nephew Bai Xiu organized two batches of fleets to sail to the Western Ocean in Quanzhou. The first batch will probably return in late spring.
…
…
"Your Majesty is here!"
A sharp voice woke up Dong Gong who was in spring sleep.
Zhu Jianji suddenly turned over and sat up.
Bai Li next to him didn't seem to hear him. He stretched out a hand to stop her man, put one leg on Zhu Jianji's lower abdomen, and murmured sleepily: "I'll sleep a little longer, I'm very sleepy."
Zhu Jianji had a dark look on his face.
Still dare to sleep?
It was just spring sleepiness at first, and I planned to take a nap, but not long after I fell asleep, you ran back from Kunning Palace. You came back as soon as you came back, and even climbed into my bed.
Then take a good nap.
I have a pair of small hands that are very dishonest.
If I don't take care of you, you will be a disgrace to my manliness.
But we were having sex in broad daylight, and Lao Zhu found out... Well, it's not a big deal.
As a husband and wife, they are in harmony with each other.
If Lao Zhu really wants to think about it, just move out of the imperial grandmother - I am also working hard for the continuation of our Lao Zhu family. You see, I am not idle even in broad daylight.
But when Lao Zhu came to the East Palace at this time, something must have happened.
He reached out and pinched Bai Li's plump and delicate thigh, "You continue to sleep, I'll go see what's wrong with Lao Zhu."
Put on your clothes and come to Wenhua Hall.
Zhu Qiyu had a gloomy face and said to Shu Liang at the door: "Everyone, step back."
Xing'an died half a month ago.
Shu Liang, the eunuch in charge of the ceremonial department, became the eunuch of the ceremonial department.
In the third year of Jingtai, Zhu Qiyu promoted the deposed crown prince Zhu Jianshen and replaced him with Zhu Jianji. Both Shu Liang and Xing'an were the most loyal supporters. When Shi Heng was in turmoil, Shu Liang and Xing'an also went to other places to transfer Jin Yiwei back to the capital.
He is a confidant eunuch.
When everyone left, a smile appeared on Zhu Qiyu's face. "Come on, you bastard. Your wife is easy to give birth to. She hasn't done anything for more than half a year. It must be because you haven't worked hard enough. My performance today is very good."
satisfy!"
Promote prostitution in daylight?
The more the merrier!
It's been more than half a year and I still haven't given me a fat, white boy. I'm very sad.
Zhu Qiyu changed his mind again at this time.
Before his daughter-in-law was pregnant, he decided not to abdicate the throne, but to help his son share the state affairs and let him devote himself wholeheartedly to the great cause of creating human beings. In short, there was one principle: the emperor's grandson must be born from Baili.
Zhu Qiyu saw it in his eyes. In the early years, his son did not like Bai Li, but now the relationship between the couple is very deep.
Except when dealing with business, whether they go to Kunning Palace or Shoukang Palace, or occasionally visit Qianqing Palace, the couple is almost inseparable.
Well, according to the report from the eunuch of the East Palace, the couple is indeed working very hard to create a baby.
The key is so that his son will not interfere with him.
During these days, Zhu Qiyu also lived very happily.
Zhu Jianji chuckled dryly, "Old Zhu, you are not serious!"
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "You really need to hurry up. In one or two years, Lu Huan will come to the East Palace. If Bai Li doesn't give birth to the emperor's grandson by then, Mr. Lu Huan will be in a very difficult position."
Just like before.
My son doesn't show any liking for Lu Huan now.
Zhu Jianji said cautiously, "If you have something to say, in the eyes of the ministers, the gap between us has not been eliminated. If you stay in the East Palace for a long time, the Tang family's relatives may become suspicious."
Zhu Qiyu suppressed his smile and said, "I was fooled."
Zhu Jianji was confused, "What do you mean?"
Zhu Qiyu was a little depressed, "Lu Zhong came to report just now and said that Liu Ji, the Hanlin editor, had actually hooked up with Tang Qing a long time ago. I also asked him to assist Lu Yuan in disaster relief, I'm afraid he didn't want to bring out a Yellow River stone man. "
Zhu Jianji was speechless, "Just know?"
He added: "It doesn't matter, Lu Yuan will keep an eye on Liu Ji for the sake of Lu Huan's future and his own future. In fact, this is the best combination. Let Liu Ji cause trouble, and Lu Yuan will seize the opportunity. Then we can He used the topic to his advantage and brought down his Down syndrome relatives."
Zhu Qiyu sighed, "It's all my fault!"
Tang’s relatives are too powerful now.
A governor, a minister of the Ministry of official affairs, and a minister of the Ministry of war.
If you want soldiers, you have soldiers; if you want power, you have power.
Even Zhu Qiyu's throne was threatened, let alone Zhu Jianji's position in the East Palace.
Zhu Qiyu is now getting more and more angry with Concubine Tang.
But there is no way.
We couldn't make Tang's relatives suspicious, so we still had to summon Tang Guifei frequently, but the original passion was gone.
Zhu Jianji said: "If it's just Liu Ji's business, Lao Zhu, you can leave. I have to go and accompany Bai Li. She's been suffering from spring sleepiness recently."
Zhu Qiyu's eyes lit up and he stood up suddenly, "Is it possible?"
Zhu Jianji shook his head, "I'm overthinking it. The imperial grandmother arranged for an imperial doctor to come and check Bai Li's pulse every day, but there was no movement. I even doubted whether there was something wrong with our old Zhu family's bloodline."
Why is it so difficult to give birth?
Zhu Qiyu sat down in despair, "In the past six months, you have been busy with the East Palace Young Army and going to sea. How is it going?"
Zhu Jianji said: "The first batch of fleets going to sea will soon return to Quanzhou. I estimate that they can earn about 300,000 taels. After all, the scale is not large. The Qiqing who followed them to sea can also earn 100,000 taels. Looks like two.”
Zhu Qiyu made a calculation silently in his mind, "Including the taxes they paid, wouldn't it cost half a million?"
Zhu Jianji was speechless, "I'll give you one hundred thousand!"
As soon as you Zhu Qiyu sticks your butt out, I will know what you want to do.
Don’t you just want money?
One hundred thousand taels for free!
The key is that this money is filial to the son!
When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he was as happy as a child weighing more than a hundred pounds. He laughed and said, "We are indeed two father and sons."
Zhu Jianji: "..."
Nonsense, it’s not like father and son, I can sit firmly in the East Palace.
Then he said: "Over there with the Young Army, let me tell you this. If we send troops north and out of the customs to conquer the Maoli Children, I am 100% sure that we can defeat the Maoli Children with only 5,600 people from the Young Army."
Kill and pierce through the royal tent!"
So I beg you, my cousin with Down syndrome, to do something quickly.
