Emperor Ming's grandson

Each has its own position
Ren Hengtai entertained the visiting Zhuo Jing at his residence, and the two actually had some intersections and similarities.

First of all, they are about the same age, and they are all erudite and talented poets.The two are actually from the same discipline. In the 21st year of Hongwu, Ren Hengtai was the champion and the first champion in China to be commended by the imperial decree to build the champion square.And the second place in that subject was Zhuo Jing.

Ren Hengtai is now acting as an agent for the Ministry of Rites, and has the opportunity to fight for the Minister of Rites.Although Zhuo Jing is only a servant of the fourth rank, everyone knows that he is an important minister under the emperor's grandson and has extraordinary potential in the future.

In fact, both Ren Hengtai and Zhuo Jing were once dissatisfied with the king's clothes, chariots and horses, etc. They all once played Lao Zhu, hoping to improve the system, clarify the status of the prince, and standardize etiquette.

Zhuo Jing was not polite, and said bluntly, "Jin Yiwei has been acting like a pamper these years, often abusing his power to create unjust, false and wrong cases. If you turn a blind eye to this, you will not feel at ease!"

Ren Hengtai also opened his mouth and said to Zhuo Jing, "Wei Gong, I will invite you to play when I go to court tomorrow. It's just Wei Gong, it's a big matter. We need to be more careful these days, and don't let those people find a way. "

In fact, both the abuse of power and Ren Hengtai understand that Jinyiwei was reused before because the emperor needed to strengthen the monarchy, cleanse the heroes, and the emperor needed to supervise the officials and rectify the administration of officials.

It's just that some things cannot be said, because no one knows if there are any Jin Yiwei in the mansion, and no one can guarantee whether these words will be recorded and handed over to the emperor's imperial case.

In fact, these people also understand that there have been such institutions in all dynasties. For example, the Song Dynasty, which claims to be the most friendly to literati, also has an institution such as the Imperial City Department.Jin Yiwei, at best, has too much reputation and too much authority.

"I will invite some colleagues to join me!" Zhuo Jing remained calm, he didn't want this advantage to be taken away by Ren Hengtai, "The brocade clothing and guards have caused anger and resentment, the atmosphere in the court is dim, and all civil and military officials are even more cautious. There is no vigor that has been established for less than thirty years, and the court is so dark, it is too late!"

Ren Hengtai also sighed, the main reason is that in the current court, many people are afraid of making mistakes, and Emperor Zhu killed people too hard.Although there are still corrupt officials who are not afraid of death, more people will feel worried and fearful.

Now that the emperor's grandson intends to make a move, Zhuo Jing and the others are actually analyzing Zhu Xiongying's motives.Maybe the emperor is going to start to rectify some things, after all, it seems to be a peaceful season now.The current Jinyiwei has a tendency to grow bigger, and it may become a sign of breaking the current trend of political stability.

Moreover, Jinyiwei now has gradually become a tool for some people to persecute their opponents.Jin Yiwei's power was too great, and his methods were too ruthless, which also caused many officials to die or even wipe out the whole clan for some unreasonable reasons.

Now that Daming is already in the hands of the emperor, Jin Yiwei may also need to be restrained.After all, enough people were killed, and the whole family of those who threatened the imperial power were buried neatly in the ground.

The two are also in constant communication. If they want to unite some colleagues, this matter must be hit with one blow, and there must be no changes.For them, this can be regarded as an all-or-nothing battle.

Because if this matter is not successful, Jin Yiwei will definitely encounter a frenzied counterattack.Even though they thought they were upright and not afraid of the shadows, Jin Yiwei's ability to concoct charges and catch wind and shadows was too good.What's more, even if they think they have the strength of character, they dare not say that they can survive the punishment in Zhao Prison.

For Zhuo Jing and Ren Hengtai, the next thing they have to do is an out-and-out major event, and they must do these things well.This may make their reputation in Shilin skyrocket, and it may also make their official career further.

But it is also possible that if this matter is not done well, not to mention losing the trust of the emperor's grandson, or even being retaliated by Jin Yiwei, he may pay an extremely heavy price for this. These are all possible things.

Zhu Xiongying doesn't care about these things now, he has other things to be busy with, such as going to Lian Qiongqiong's place to rest.

The scumbag Xiao Zhu can be at ease at this time, but his regular wife Xu Miaoqing can't stay idle.Not to mention the fat son needs to be taken care of, and the younger brother-in-law is getting married, these things are out-and-out major events.

If it was Zhu Yunqi, Xu Miaoqing felt that she just needed to go through the motions a little bit.There are some things that she really doesn't need to worry about. There is the clan mansion, and Zhu Yunwen's mother is there, so naturally she doesn't need her sister-in-law to care about anything.

But Zhu Yunxi can't do it, this is an out-and-out uncle, and he can be regarded as the emperor's grandson's heart and brother.

These matters also require her to contact more. According to the etiquette and rules, Zhu Yunxi's marriage is naturally in accordance with the etiquette of the county king.But if Zhu Yunxie's marriage is really arranged according to the etiquette of the county king, it is estimated that many people will be settled by Qiuhou.

Xu Miaoqing thought for a while, and asked Wang Chengen, "Is there a master craftsman in the imperial prison?"

Seeing Wang Chengen nodding, Xu Miaoqing immediately said, "Then let people go to the Prince's Mansion and use red sandalwood and ebony to make screens, beds, furnishings, tables and cabinets and other wooden utensils. Take 3000 taels of silver from the East Palace treasury and buy some servants for the Prince's Mansion." .”

Wang Chengen had a bitter expression and said, "Your Highness, there is a shortage of silver taels in the treasury."

"Then go and get my dowry." Xu Miaoqing said, taking it for granted, "I remember that there are some gold and silver wares in the dowry, so I sent them to be melted. Over there at the silver bureau, ask His Highness to invite the emperor to reward you with the princely system." Some gold and silver artifacts."

Wang Chengen's expression became even more bitter, and he knelt down and said, "Your Highness, if this is the case, I'm afraid the servant will be punished."

Xu Miao glanced innocently at Wang Chengen, and then said, "I remember that Yunxi was extravagant, and you should arrange for a reliable person to control the treasury of the county prince. He doesn't like trivial matters, so he bestows land and Huangzhuang, and let people take care of them."

Wang Chengen said in a low voice, "Your Highness, mice can run away from the county palace treasury."

Xu Miaoqing was not surprised at all, but asked, "Has the county king ever owed some credit outside?"

This time Wang Chengen became excited, he knew a lot of accounts, and there must be more things he didn't know.That is to say, everyone knows that Zhu Yunxi has a special status, so even if Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Xi, Zhu Yue, or even the Chang family are helping, there are still some debts outside.

Xu Miaoqing had a headache when she heard it, Zhu Yunxi was spending money lavishly, and she didn't understand economics.It seems that he can't just help take care of the land grant or salary, but also needs to send someone to follow, so that Zhu Yunxi, a silly boy, won't be tricked by others.

In fact, Zhu Xiongying also knew about these things, but he just turned a blind eye.Zhu Yunxi's status is special, and he really dare not have too many people cheat him.It's just that I can't stand this silly boy who has no heart, and sometimes he likes to spend a lot of money.If you don't pay attention to this, it is estimated that the dignified county king will go bankrupt soon.

However, although the silly boy is bold, he has not sold off the things that were rewarded by Old Zhu and Da Zhu.As for the things that Zhu Xiongying rewarded, that silly boy Zhu Yunxi only kept some special marks on them that others dared not accept, otherwise they would have basically been sold or given away.

This silly brother is really raised and disabled, not to mention a master of eating, drinking and having fun, it is indeed impossible to do business.Now that he is out of the palace, he is still constantly letting himself go, and sometimes it seems that he has not made much progress.

This is probably mainly due to Lu's contribution, and Zhu Yunqi's contribution is also indispensable.

There are still many things to worry about. Don't think that the emperor's grandson and concubine can eat, drink, have fun and enjoy life every day.For them, there are too many things in all aspects, and they all need to be dealt with.

For example, Zhu Xiongying got up early and ate some 'breakfast', then walked slowly towards Fengtian Temple.

After seeing Chang Mao, Zhu Xiongying nodded slightly.

Chang Mao, who understood, immediately came over, with good etiquette, "Chang Mao, my minister, sees Your Highness."

"Zheng Guogong, there must be something going on in the court these two days." Zhu Xiongying lowered his voice and whispered, "When the time comes, play by ear."

Chang Mao nodded slightly, without pretending to be stupid, "Your Highness, I know. But Your Highness, what should I do?"

Chang Mao, who used old skills against civil servants in the imperial court, had just been fined half a year's salary, and he was very worried that he would lose another half year's salary if he was not careful.These things have to be asked clearly, although he also knows his salary, basically it is impossible to get all of it.

"If the court is out of control, you can come forward with Liang Guogong." Zhu Xiongying didn't have any troubles, and cut straight to the point, "Don't let the civil servants gain too much power, you can allow them some things. But remember, just allow them something."

Chang Mao immediately understood that in the final analysis, it would be fine if the civil servants made any troubles.But it must be His Majesty the Emperor and His Highness the Grandson rewarding those sour Confucians, not those civil servants forcing the Emperor and Grandson to make concessions.

There are quite a lot of doorways here, and the initiative must not be given to those civil servants.Of course, Chang Mao is also very clear that their martial arts are actually the same, and they can get the emperor's reward and permission instead of forcing the emperor to agree to some conditions.

Chang Mao, who is full of fighting spirit, is ready, for example, to give some old punches to some civil servants again when necessary.And Lan Yu, who got the news soon, is also very confident. He has an arrogant and domineering character, and if he really annoys him, he will go too far than Chang Mao.

Whoever dares to miss the important event of the emperor's grandson is their life and death enemy.Whoever dares to disobey the emperor's grandson's will, don't blame Zheng Guogong for using old fists, or stumbling and beating black sticks in private.

Chang Mao didn't care about fame, as long as his nephew ascended to the throne of God was enough, he didn't care about the rest.

As for Sapphire, the crown prince is gone, and he is still in a hurry to find a new backer.Taisun is a natural backer, where is the background?It's just that Lan Yu also understands that to replace Fu Youde and others, he still needs to do something to gain the trust of the emperor's grandson.
