Alliance of the Heavens and Ming Dynasty

Chapter 36
"Grandpa, Wan Zhen'er is actually pretty good."

Zhu Jianshen said with a full face of grievance, what's wrong with liking nanny, as long as I like it, I can do whatever!
Everyone is speechless, it's not a problem to like nanny, she's a young lady, she still has charm, who doesn't have any special hobbies, but you don't even care about your son for a nanny, this is the biggest problem.

"Grandfather, I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first. Remember to bring the blueprints of the treasure ship with you when you come next time. We will pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other."

Zhu Houzhao couldn't stand it anymore, reminded Zhu Yuanzhang not to forget the deal, and then left.

He still had a lot of things to do, so he didn't have time to talk to them about the nasty matter between Mrs. Wan and Zhu Jianshen.

After Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di and others chatted, they all left separately. As emperors, their affairs were very busy.

"Liu Jin, the news has been released!"

Zhu Houzhao asked softly, he would not give up on those officials who opposed him and forced him to compromise by resigning from office and going on strike. Driving them out of the court is only the first step, and the good show is yet to come.

If he didn't play them to death, he wouldn't be called Zhu Houzhao. I really thought the 10,000+ people in Liaodong were just joking.

"My lord, the news has been released, and I'm waiting for the emperor's order to proceed to the next step!"

Liu Jin responded.

"Change clothes, go out of the palace to see the situation."

Changed into casual clothes, Zhu Houzhao took Liu Jin out of the palace, and wandered aimlessly in the streets, but he didn't want to drink.

"Have you heard that Mr. Zhang, a member of the Selected Works Department of the Ministry of Officials, and dozens of court officials collectively resigned from the emperor, and they want to return to their hometowns to help the people develop their livelihoods?"

"Good official, I would rather not be an official, but do things for the people. There are not many such honest officials nowadays!"

"That's right, Mr. Zhang, they are all Bao Qingtian of my Daming, and the people in their hometown are blessed!"

Listening to the people's discussion, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but twitched a sinister smile, which made Liu Jin who was beside him shudder.

He deliberately asked Liu Jin to release the news that the officials resigned and returned to their hometowns to seek development for the people, and let the people in Dongchang spread it everywhere, just to praise those resigned officials and let them enjoy it The feeling of admiration is embraced by all peoples.

When they feel that their lives have reached their peak, he will let Yan Song entangle the procuratorate's spraying and impeachment of those people, embezzlement and bribery, murder and arson, and Jin Yiwei has already investigated all kinds of criminal evidence.

He just wants those officials to experience the excitement of flying up to the clouds and then falling into hell. If they dare to sing against him, if they don't teach them a profound lesson, they won't understand who the master of this empire is.

When the criminal evidence of those officials erupts, the people who adore those people will definitely be extremely disappointed by them, and Zhu Houzhao doesn’t even need to do it himself, the anger from the people will make those people die without a place to bury them
This is called - flattery.

It has the same effect as Zheng Zhuanggong's murder of his younger brother!

Which one is better at playing people, Daming Zhengde is the strongest.

Having been the emperor for so many years, Zhu Houzhao did not do it for nothing. The emperor's mind may not be as good as Zhu Yuanzhang's heart-opened seven or eight eyes, but it is easy to kill a few ministers who are ignorant of current affairs.

The common people's comments are pleasant to Zhu Houzhao's ears, and they are the sorrow and joy of those officials who disagree with him, but they are the unstoppable fear in Liu Jin's ears. The emperor is becoming more and more unfathomable. People are thrown to Liaodong to farm, and now they want to ruin people's reputation, and the methods are getting more and more ruthless!

He was thinking whether to find a chance to give the little money he saved at home to Zhu Houzhao, lest Zhu Houzhao find out that he was corrupt and accept bribes one day, and punish him!
"Liu Jin, what are you thinking?"

Seeing Liu Jin in a daze, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help asking.

"No, nothing."

Liu Jin quickly suppressed the fear in her heart, feeling that if Zhu Houzhao wanted to do him, he would have done it long ago. Why didn't Zhu Houzhao know about his corruption and bribery in the future, but the amount was not large, and Zhu Houzhao didn't care.

Zhu Houzhao has never minded his subordinates being greedy, because when the water is clear, there will be no fish. He can tolerate less greed, just turn a blind eye and close one eye. After all, the salaries of Ming officials are indeed a little less, and no one needs to use them. When it comes to money, but if you are greedy for a lot of money and want to sing against him, then Zhu Houzhao can't bear it!
"Let's go, go to Chunhua Tower and sit down."

Zhu Houzhao walked towards Chunhualou, the largest restaurant in the capital. Every time he came out, he would go there to taste the food of Chunhualou and lean on the high window to enjoy the view of Beijing.

The most important thing is that there is a very special person there who has a close relationship with Zhu Houzhao.

"Father, you are here!"

As soon as he arrived at Chunhua Building, the waiter greeted him with a smile. He was obviously someone who knew Zhu Houzhao very well.

"Old rules, a pot of Nurhong, and three or five side dishes."

Zhu Houzhao asked him to take out an ingot of 50 taels of silver ingot and throw it to the waiter in the shop, and then went straight to his own box in Chunhua Building, which was reserved for him by the shop owner on purpose.

"Okay, sir, wait a moment."

The waiter in the shop shouted, and went to fetch wine and order food!

In fact, the waiter went to a quiet courtyard behind Chunhua Building.

Hundreds of flowers are in full bloom, and the sound of the zither is faint. In the gazebo, a beautiful figure with a veil is playing the melody on the zither.

The song is a famous song from ancient to modern times, Fengqiuhuang, but the meanings that can be expressed are very contradictory, which seems to confirm the complicated heart of the player.

"Boss, that young master is here again!"

The waiter ran in and reported to the piano player out of breath.

Keng.
The sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and a trace of sadness flashed in the eyes of the beautiful figure, and said: "Don't worry about him, everything will be as usual."

The voice was clear and sweet, as beautiful as her piano sound, but with a strong sense of sadness.

"Yes."

The shop waiter left respectfully.

"Ugh"

In the quiet and unique small courtyard, there was only a sigh with indecipherable meaning left.

"There is a beautiful woman, and I will never forget it when I see it. I don't see her for a day, and I think about it like crazy. The phoenix flies and soars, and the world seeks the phoenix."

"The phoenix returns to its hometown, and travels around the world to seek its phoenix. The time has not met, and there is no general. How can you be promoted to this hall now?"

Holding a wine glass in one hand, and reciting the eternal song "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" in his mouth, Zhu Houzhao's face is also complicated. The emperor is a ruthless road. To be an emperor who dominates the world is destined to be alone. At this point, he has lost Too much too much.

His teacher, Li Dongyang, was a stranger to him. His mother, Empress Dowager Zhang, had a cold relationship with him. All the officials wished that he would die sooner. Even her, it was impossible for him to be with him. , but he never regretted it, because he chose this path himself.

　I finally made up what I owed yesterday.
