eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 23

After Zhu Houzhao got up early, he read in the morning at the window, the time was quiet, and he was also quiet.There are too few entertainment items here, but after a long time, I gradually get used to it.

It's just that there is one bad thing about late autumn, that is, there are no birdsong, and it is desolate and quiet. The poplar trees planted in front of the temple are all dead branches, and the dead leaves have fallen all over the ground, which ruined three or four little eunuchs who were cleaning.

He rested his chin on his hand and stayed for a while out of boredom.

"Your Highness,"

Autumn clouds come with tea cups,

Zhang Yong followed behind.

"what happened?"

Zhang Yong and Qiu Yun glanced at each other, and then said: "Your Majesty seems to have something on his mind, slaves and servants."

These two people can be regarded as caring.

It's not a worry, at most it's a bit boring, although Li Guang's matter is in front of him, but now he has to let the bullets fly for a while, he won't show up.

The emperor trusted Li Guang so much. Didn't he hurt his father's heart by taking the lead at this time?
"It's nothing. By the way, is Yang Tinghe here? Go and call him over."

The decree should come down shortly after, and you should go and have a word with him.

"Yes." Zhang Yong led the order and left.

"Qiu Yun, you go down too."

The little girl left Xiefang Hall with a trace of sadness,

When I went back, I was just as unhappy.

No matter how you look at it, Your Highness is not very interested, but it is a pity that she has never learned the art of entertaining people since she was a child.

"Sister Qiuyun, why are you unhappy today?" Dong Yu, who was picking tea leaves, stepped forward and asked with concern.

Qiu Yun and she are willing to say anything, "I think His Highness seems not very interested, but if His Highness doesn't say anything, I can't understand His Highness's thoughts, and there is no good way. It's really useless..."

"Your Highness, are you tired of reading?" Dong Yu's character was a little out of character, and he thought things that others dared not say.

"Nonsense. They all said that His Highness has a scholarly spirit, and he might become a scholar in the future."

"Ah...then His Highness is amazing."

……

……

"Chen, Yang Tinghe greets His Highness."

Zhu Houzhao was still sitting in front of the window, the crosswind was blowing on his face, a little cold, but he enjoyed it very much.He was dressed in gorgeous clothes, neatly arranged without any wrinkles, with a jade belt around his waist, and boots embroidered with exquisite patterns on his feet.

Most of the nobles in the world are like this.

Yang Tinghe,
Speaking of which, I will be 40 years old soon.

"Because of the previous incident, you have been wronged a little..." Although the Crown Prince said it lightly, Yang Tinghe felt it was very powerful.

Especially feeling the recent encounters, there is a slight sour in the nose.

"His Royal Highness, I am serious. As a minister, it is my duty to share the Lord's worries. Your Highness does not need to be extra merciful. I am afraid that the minister will not be blessed to bear it."

"I'm not trying to be kind..."

Yang Tinghe: "..."

"Yesterday, I have asked my father to transfer you from the East Palace to another place. If you think about it, there will be a decree in the near future."

He thought of many ways to speak,

I still think it's better to go straight.

Too many detours will appear insincere.

Yang Tinghe was also confused, he was a little moved just now.

And the last time His Highness tried his best to protect himself in front of Li Min, he thought it would be a good result... He never expected it to be like this.

But the king is the guide for the ministers, and he will do what the above will do.

"I would like to encourage His Highness." He buried his head deeper, probably because he felt that his life had reached a low point, so he had to accept it.

No matter how bad the encounter is, you have to live.

Zhu Houzhao knew that he would be like this, so he specially summoned him to give some instructions.

"The book of saints, you read it very well. But you haven't governed a county since you were a Jinshi in high school, right?"

"Your Highness said so."

"The Ming Dynasty is so big, there are so many prefectures and counties in the two capitals and the thirteen chief secretaries. If you think you are extraordinary, are you willing to go to the local area to practice it?"

Yang Tinghe gradually heard His Highness's words, it seems that there is some deep meaning?

"Your Highness, please show me."

"I will. In the past few days, you have taught me a word, which is to serve the people wholeheartedly." Zhu Houzhao turned his head to look out the window and said leisurely: "I just said that I let you transfer to another place. You must have an emotion in your heart. It is possible to be happy or sad. No matter what, Yang Tinghe’s first thought is to serve as an official and benefit one party, or to leave the East Palace and stay away from the prince, which will make your official career not smooth in the future? The answer is in your heart, I don’t have much ask."

Yang Tinghe's heart trembled,
Your Highness has such sobering words.

"His Highness's words are deafening!"

"In addition, often in Beijing, what the place is like, what the people at the bottom are like, all depends on what other people say, and I haven't seen it with my own eyes. Whether it's in the Imperial Academy or the East Palace, what do you get after years of hard work? It's just a political book. However, the experience in governing a county and a government has not increased by half. Even if the eloquence is eloquent, it is just what the predecessors said in the book, and finally became Zhao Kuo of my Ming Dynasty. This advance and retreat, see It shows the true character of a person. But looking around, you Yang Ting told yourself, are there many colleagues around you who are willing to go to the place, or are there many colleagues who are trying to squeeze their heads into Zhan Shifu?!"

There are clearly two values ​​behind this.

Of course, what everyone talks about is for the country and the people.

Yang Tinghe clenched his fists tightly. Up to this moment, he already knew that the crown prince was a hero who was rarely seen in a hundred years!

Learn literary and martial arts, goods and the emperor's family.

If you can meet the Ming Lord, it will be a great joy in life.

In such an instant, Yang Tinghe made up his mind.

"Your Highness! I would like to release you as an official to govern the people of a city for the imperial court!"

Zhu Houzhao also felt somewhat relieved,
Regardless of whether it was coercion or reasoning, in short, he wanted Yang Tinghe's words.

If you go, you have to go, if you don’t go, you have to go.

Otherwise, if the prince said, wouldn't the emperor's will be a fart?

"Today's words can come out of my mouth and into your ears. Don't say too much when you go out. Let others gossip, you just need to remember what I told you. Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. This is what you say Yes, so I ask you to go and see the common people you often talk about, and do something that is really beneficial to the common people. As for this... No matter how accurately you record my words and deeds, the common people will have a lot of rice vats Get a grain of rice."

"Your Highness's words are sincere and heartfelt, and I feel deeply. No matter what position you are in, I will definitely not disappoint Your Highness."

"Well, what else do you want?"

"No more, if Your Highness has any request, you can tell this humble minister."

Zhu Houzhao paused for a while, thinking about it.

Because he suddenly realized that there is no phone these days, and once it is released, it will be a long time since he can't be contacted. Some things should be said when people are around.

But after much deliberation, only one sentence came to mind.

"You have to remember, you are from the East Palace. No matter where you go, don't lose my people."

This is not a requirement, it is clearly a reward.

From then on, he, Yang Tinghe, could hang out with the prince. In this dynasty, there was no accident when the prince ascended the throne, it was only a matter of time.

"Sir, thank you for your great love and cultivation! After leaving Beijing, you must remember your highness's words every day, and put the sage's learning into practice!"

After leaving the palace, Yang Tinghe was still agitated,
He had thought about countless things the crown prince would say to him, and this was the last thing he could have imagined.

Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can be kind to court ladies, he can be kind to the common people of the world.

Sending him out of Beijing this time is neither degrading him into exile nor disliking him. This is the great expectation for him.

So the scorching sun was in the sky, Yang Ting and himself bowed to the East Palace and bowed in the distance.
