Daming: Wanted to be a small landlord, but was forced to ascend the throne

Chapter 228 The emperor ran away?

"Father!"

The third son rushed over excitedly, holding a kettle with warm chrysanthemum tea in his hand.

"Master, you're here. This is chrysanthemum tea. It's very annoying. When I came, the girl told me to bring it. The innkeeper made it for you. Drink it quickly."

The third son said excitedly.

"You... why are you here? Aren't you going to Beijing?"

Qin Shao asked in surprise.

"My lord, something happened in the capital! The girl and I came back first. I don't feel at ease at home, and I know the way here, so I came here on horseback."

The third son said in a low voice, he has grown a lot in the past two years, and he already looks like a young man.

"what's up?"

Qin Shao felt bad.

"Master, Mr. Zhang wrote a letter, and the third son has brought it. You can read it in the car."

Wang Yin said in a low voice.

Qin Shao looked at the people coming and going, and was surprised that it was not good to speak in this place.

The three quickly got into the car and drove to the inn.

After Qin Shao got into the car, he quickly opened the letter.

Zhang Cong's letter is very thick, and the content is very detailed.

The news is also very exciting:

Zhu Houzhao took Jiang Bin and his mighty battalion to train the army and ran to the Xuanfu!
It wasn't the black and white words written by Zhang Cong, Qin Shao still couldn't believe it.

You must know that there are 3000 people in the mighty camp!
How could it be possible to bring out so many people at once?

How did Zhu Houzhao take it out?

Those civil servants would agree so?
Qin Shao has been to Leopard Square, which is not only a place for raising raptors, but more precisely, it is a base for military performances.

Not only do 3000 officers and soldiers of the mighty battalion live there, it is actually a simulated small battlefield.

Zhu Houzhao and Jiang Bin often lined up troops and drilled soldiers there.

There are not only armor in the tent, but also explosives and Frankie artillery. Zhu Houzhao will definitely not allow these things to stay.

How did you pass Juyongguan with so many people and things?

There are people guarding it, and a large group of people will not be easily allowed to pass through, let alone the emperor!

With an eager mood, he continued to look down.

Zhang Cong said that because of Nanhaizi's hunting, the emperor and those ministers had friction again.

The impeachment papers came one after another, and the emperor gave those officials royal hunting prizes, but those people refused to protest collectively.

The emperor was very annoyed, he didn't know who paid attention, and said that instead of being restrained by those people in Shangjing, it's better to go to the Xuanfu, so that those ministers can't go to those places, so they don't have to listen to them all day long!

Zhu Houzhao thought this was a good idea, so he took dozens of people secretly out of Xuandemen in early August.

Soon the civil officials knew about it, and many civil officials chased after them on horseback, knelt all the way and begged the emperor to go back, but Zhu Houzhao made up his mind and ignored those people.

It's just that when they arrived at Juyongguan, they found that the gate had been closed, and Zhang Qin, the censor who guarded the gate, vowed not to open the gate.

Zhu Houzhao had no choice but to go back angrily.

After more than ten days, the news was found that Zhang Qin was out to inspect, Zhu Houzhao led people to break through the pass again, and then asked Gu Dayong to replace Zhang Qin to guard the pass, and stopped all the ministers from outside the pass, and successfully broke through the pass. In the follow-up, he took things out of Juyongguan.

Now Zhu Houzhao has been stationed in Xuanfu.

Qin Shao was a little dumbfounded after reading it.

He recalled the history he had seen in his previous life.

I only vaguely remember that Zhengde is unreliable, went to Xuanfu to play, claimed to be a general, and was extravagant and extravagant there, accepting women, which is extremely absurd.

When I first read this period of history, I felt that the emperor was out of shape, and I never thought that Zhu Houzhao would lead 3000 people to break out and run away.

These history books are all compiled by humans. It seems that many so-called histories really dare not study in detail.

Zhang Cong said that "Yandu Jokes" has recently criticized the emperor for not doing his job properly, and many people have complained for the court officials.

Their "Jinghua Tabloid" is also helping to fight against the stage, saying that the emperor's inspection is also an opportunity to experience the people's feelings and make decisions for the people. Why would some people object?

After the news came out, many people also felt that it was reasonable.

Many people also said that today's son is pure and good, and after he came to power, he is considered gentle to the ministers and the people, and he also reduces or exempts taxes.

The people of the two factions had heated discussions, and I heard that some people almost fought because of differences of opinion.

You come and go, "Yandu Joke" and "Jinghua Tabloid" clashed several times.

Zhang Cong said that recently, people have been inquiring about the Jinghua tabloids in the book shop from time to time, wanting to know who wrote the tabloids.

In order to avoid publicity, their editorial offices have now moved to Qin Shao's house.

When Qin Shao was about to leave, he had already explained that the tabloids had better be hidden, so as not to be caught, get entangled with bookstores and teahouses, and be brought together by people with ulterior motives.

Now that the situation in Beijing is unstable, Zhang Cong was worried about safety, so he asked the third son to bring Han Jinrong back first, and send a letter to Qin Shao to explain the situation.

"Master, people are living in our house now, it's almost full. There are almost not enough rooms, and the girl has been worried about your side. It's inconvenient to live in the house, so we wanted to come back and have a look."

The third son reported back.

"You are really bold, and you brought the girl back without replying to a letter."

Wang Yin blamed the third son.

"I have time, the girl is wearing men's clothing, and we are on an official ship, no problem."

The third son laughed.

"My lord, the emperor can also train soldiers in Baofang, so why go to Xuanfu?"

Wang Yin was a little puzzled.

"The imperial palace is not safe enough. The emperor wants to use the Xuanfu to build the governor's mansion, establish a prestige, win the support of the nine sides, and rebuild the military system!"

Qin Shao said lightly.

"This...isn't it easy?"

Wang Yin followed Qin Shao in the capital for a year, he was very smart and familiar with the situation of the court.

"It's really not easy."

Qin Shao sighed.

Xuanfu is an important military town in the north, and it is also the first line of defense against the invasion of the Mongolian army.

Zhu Houzhao admired Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang and Chengzu Zhu Di, and hoped that he could also make great military exploits like them.

So what if he only has part of the military power?So what if he won the love and respect of the frontier army?
Personnel power and financial power have nothing to do with me. The right to control the salaries, food and grass of the frontier army is in the hands of those people, and the power of those people to curb the throat of the army is ultimately useless?

As far as Qin Shao knew about the history, even though Zhu Houzhao went to Xuanfu toss around, he did do something.

It's just that he returned to Shangjing in the end.

During the more than a year since he left, the court operated normally, and everything was the same as when he was there or not.

It seems to declare that the emperor of the Ming Empire is just a display!

"Master, you have finished the exam, shall we go back or wait for the results to be announced?"

Wang Yin asked.

Jin Juren, Silver Jinshi!

You can know the importance of the rural examination.

The local provincial examinations are held in the provincial government, and many people who have passed the examination will be released on the list.

Moreover, transportation in ancient times was inconvenient, and it took a lot of distance to go back and forth.

Qin Shao's conditions are good now, he can take two carriages, many poor students, some ride ox carts or donkeys, and even poorer people walk.

It's not easy to come here, and it's normal to wait for the list.

"Wait for the results to be released! It won't be long, we'll go back when we know the results."

Qin Shao had nothing else to think about.

Although the situation in Shangjing is not good now, there is nothing he can do for a small person!

Thinking of Zhu Houzhao crying after drinking, Qin Shao finally understood Zhu Houzhao's helplessness.

A helpless person who seems to have the supreme power, but even mobilizes a single soldier, and can't make the decision when he leaves the city gate!
Because the number of Enke exams this time will be less than the previous ones, the notice has been issued on August 26 to release the results.

Therefore, most of the candidates who finished the exam stayed to watch the list.

After several exams, Qin Shao was already exhausted. He rested in the inn for two days before he fully recovered.

The next few people walked around Wuchang Mansion a few times, eating, drinking and drinking, and soon it was the day of the announcement.
