Chapter 42 Decentralization
After the competition, Gao Huan and Zhu Houzhao walked side by side to the outside of the yamen. When they reached the door, Gao Huan suddenly showed a look of hesitation.

When Zhu Houzhao saw this, suspicion flashed in his eyes, he frowned and looked at Gao Huan, and said, "Just say what you have to say, why do you suddenly become hesitant, this is not like your usual style."

Gao Huan let out a soft sigh when he heard the words, then bowed to Zhu Houzhao and saluted.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Houzhao was a little puzzled by Monk Zhang Er. He took a step back silently, looked at Gao Huan with vigilance, and said, "You didn't do something to apologize to me, did you?"

Gao Huan couldn't help laughing dumbfounded when he heard the words, and waved his hands again and again: "No! How is it possible!"

"On the way back to Beijing, I met Ren Yingying, a holy lady of the Demon Sect"

Under Zhu Houzhao's shocked and curious expression, Gao Huan told Ren Yingying in detail that he promised Ren Yingying to go to Meizhuang to rescue Ren Woxing out of trouble, and promised him the position of leader of the Sun Moon Sect.

Zhu Houzhao listened very seriously, and when Gao Huan fell behind, he looked at Gao Huan with burning eyes and said, "Is Ren Yingying beautiful?"

"what?"

When Gao Huan heard this, he suddenly showed a look of dumbfounding, then nodded with a wry smile, and said, "After meeting Ren Yingying, I deliberately wrote a poem for him."

"Oh?"

Zhu Houzhao looked at Gao Huan expectantly, and said, "What poem? Come and listen."

"There are beauties in the North. Peerless and independent.

A glance at the city of people.Let's look at the country again.

Ning doesn't know the allure of the city and the allure of the country.A beautiful woman is hard to come by again. "

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he suddenly lowered his head and fell into deep thought. He combined Gao Huan's poems to outline Ren Yingying's appearance in his mind. After a long silence, he slowly opened his mouth and said, "Ren Yingying should be extremely beautiful."

Zhu Houzhao said, suddenly patted Gao Huan on the shoulder, and sighed: "I really envy you."

After Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, he suddenly saw a Xiaoqi carrying a birdcage walking towards him. For some reason, he suddenly looked a little irritable, pointed at the Xiaoqi, and said, "You bastard, why did you put it in a cage?" inside?"

Seeing this, Liu Jin quickly stepped forward, snatched the birdcage from Xiaoqi's hand, and released the caged bird in front of Zhu Houzhao.

Looking at the parrot hovering over the head of the little flag and refusing to fly away, Zhu Houzhao waved to it with a smile and said, "Let's go, let's go, you are free."

"Isn't this bad luck?"

Gao Huan pouted speechlessly, looked at Zhu Houzhao with embarrassment, and said, "Your Highness, they have a parrot. Once it recognizes its owner, it will not leave easily."

"Freedom, it is indeed very important, but compared to freedom, responsibility is also very important. Your responsibility is to take care of the people, its responsibility is to accompany the master, and my responsibility is to maintain the imperial power. We all perform our duties , isn’t it pretty good too?”

Seeing Zhu Houzhao's disapproving expression, Gao Huan shook his head helplessly, and said, "You should really go to Miyun to have a look when you have time, those small people who are promoted are also not allowed to be free, they are not even allowed to step out of the city without a guide. Miyun half step, they open their eyes every morning, they have to run around for a living, compared to them, you are happy."

Hearing this, Zhu Houzhao silently held the parrot in his hands, gently stroked its small head, and immediately put it back in the cage, staring blankly at the parrot in the cage, as if muttering to himself: : "Let's do our own thing."

After finishing speaking, he suddenly thought of something again, and immediately looked at Gao Huan with a strange face, and said, "Do you and Ren Yingying have that? That's the one. You know."

Gao Huan rolled his eyes speechlessly, and said, "I'm a family man, and I don't intend to take a concubine."

Zhu Houzhao nodded in a moody way, and said, "I won't be able to accompany you during this trip to Hangzhou. I will bring more people with me to prepare for emergencies."

"Just ask Yu Qing to go with me. If there are too many people, it will be easy to expose the target. At that time, Ren Yingying will also send a master to accompany me to Hangzhou."

"You must be more careful during this trip, and you must not act recklessly. If you find that something cannot be done, you should withdraw immediately, and you must not love to fight." Zhu Houzhao reminded in a warm voice.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will save it." Gao Huan nodded.

Just at this time, Zhang Yong looked over anxiously, and said: "My lord, the emperor ordered you to come to the palace urgently."

Zhu Houzhao curled his lips when he heard this, and said, "It seems that Father already knows what happened here."

As Zhu Houzhao said, he waved to Gao Huan without looking back, and said, "Let's go, see you later."

After finishing speaking, he took Liu Jin and Zhang Yongxian and left the Jinyiwei yamen one step at a time.

After a long time.

Just as Zhu Houzhao stepped through the Yangxin Gate, he saw Cao Zhengchun who was kneeling outside the Hall of Yangxin and pleading guilty. He silently came to Cao Zhengchun's side, looked at him blankly, and asked knowingly, "What's the matter?" gone?"

Hearing the words, Cao Zhengchun followed the sound and raised his head silently. After seeing that it was Zhu Houzhao who came, he immediately kowtowed again and apologized: "The servants are negligent in disciplining the clansmen, so that Cao Zheng has developed a domineering temperament. The servants have neglected crime, His Highness, please punish me severely."

Hearing this, Zhu Houzhao personally helped Cao Zhengchun up, bent down to brush the dust off Cao Zhengchun's knees, and said in a strange way: "You are the chief eunuch who holds the pen and is the chief eunuch of the Rites Supervisor. The post of admiral of the factory is not far behind, not to mention the daily affairs, you are with the emperor all day long, how can you have the time to discipline Cao Zheng?"

Cao Zhengchun was originally showing an expression of gratitude, but he was startled when he heard this, and then he thumped and knelt down again.

"The humble body of a servant, how can he deserve the title of His Highness? A servant deserves death for a crime, a crime that deserves death."

When Cao Zhengchun spoke, he deliberately used some dark energy. His voice seemed to be the same as usual in the ears of Zhu Houzhao and others, but it could be transmitted to Emperor Hongzhi's ears without saying a word.

Looking at Cao Zhengchun whose forehead was full of shade, Zhu Houzhao curled his lips in disdain, and said, "Okay, stop knocking, you don't care about your own head, I still love the gold bricks on the ground."

After Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, he immediately left Liu Jin and others, and walked towards the hall alone.

After entering the palace, Zhu Houzhao silently exchanged glances with the expressionless Emperor Hongzhi, then stepped forward to salute and said, "I pay homage to my father."

Emperor Hongzhi smiled slightly, waved to Zhu Houzhao, and said, "Come, sit by my side."

Zhu Houzhao seemed a little hesitant, but he still stepped forward and said, "I don't know what advice my father has?"

When Emperor Hongzhi heard the words, he still only smiled slightly, reached out and patted the dragon chair under him, and motioned Zhu Houzhao to sit down and talk.

Zhu Houzhao shook his head and said, "Father is here, how can I sit down? I should stand and answer."

"When Xiao Jing was serving me to wash up this morning, I accidentally looked in the mirror and found that many beautiful hairs had suddenly sprouted from my temples."

As Emperor Hongzhi said, he suddenly let out a long sigh, and said, "I have worked hard all my life, and now I can't harden my heart."

Zhu Houzhao was startled, and his face gradually collapsed. He had already guessed what his father wanted to express.

Zhu Houzhao let out a long sigh of relief, and said, "Your minister can keep Cao Zheng alive and imprison him in Beizhen Fusi, where he will be confined until he dies."

Hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi had a look of apology flashing in his eyes, and he picked up a blank imperial decree with a big seal on the imperial case, handed it to Zhu Houzhao, and said: "From now on, the appointment and dismissal of all officials in Jinyiwei is up to you." In one word."

Zhu Houzhao heard the words, tightly held the hand of the imperial decree, and nodded silently. The father and son looked at each other and smiled, everything was said in silence.

at the same time.

Cao Zhengchun and Liu Jin, who were waiting outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, were also engaged in an extremely fierce verbal battle through lip language.

With a gloomy face, Cao Zhengchun silently looked at Liu Jin's face for a long time, then showed a disappointed expression, and said: "Our family has always treated you kindly, but take a look at what you have done."

Hearing this, Liu Jin curled her lips in disdain, and said without giving in: "The servants really don't understand Cao Gonggong's words. The servants are very small-minded, and they can't accommodate anyone else except the emperor and master. We All I think about every moment is to share my worries with the Lord.”

Cao Zhengchun kept his face ashen, and smiled back with anger: "Well, you Liu Jin, I didn't expect you to be a sharp-tongued master, but our family misjudged you in the past."

Liu Jin smiled slightly, and said: "You can just relax, according to the emperor's temperament, he will definitely save Cao Zheng's life, and he will definitely not let your Cao family die."

Cao Zhengchun shuddered suddenly when he heard the words. Liu Jin's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting his heart hard.

Cao Zhengchun suddenly collapsed on the ground with powerlessness, his face showed concern, and after bowing his head in silence for a long time, his heart suddenly fell, and he immediately pulled the throat of the male duck and said loudly to the Hall of Mental Cultivation: "Cao Zheng is corrupt and broke the law, Slandering the imperial court is really a crime worthy of death, please kill this thief to set the record straight."

After Cao Zheng finished speaking, he saw Zhu Houzhao walking out of the hall with a smile on his face. He waved the imperial decree in front of Cao Zhengchun as if in a demonstration, and said, "Father is benevolent, and Cao Zheng is hereby ordered to order him Continue the incense for the Cao family."

"Your servant is a tree without roots, and only the emperor and His Highness are in your heart. Cao Zheng's crime is unforgivable, and you must not indulge in indulgence. Please punish this thief, and calm the false rumors by rectifying people's hearts."

Zhu Houzhao patted Cao Zhengchun's head with a smile, and said, "Okay, stop pretending, you must be happy now, right?"

After Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, he turned around and left without giving Cao Zhengchun a chance to explain.

Walking to the door of Yangxin, Liu Jin did not forget to turn her head and glance at Cao Zhengchun, who was kneeling in a daze, and cast a provocative look at him, and Cao Zhengchun was so angry that he almost exploded on the spot.
