Chapter 80
Chang Feng is eager to prove his worth in front of Xinjun.Focus on running a beautiful and big errand.

He followed Zhang Yong and excitedly came to the main hall of Qianqing Palace.

Originally, he was hoping to be summoned by Emperor Hongzhi alone, to teach him the opportunity and entrust him with important tasks.

Unexpectedly, all the civil and military officials of the imperial court stood in front of the main hall.

Chang Feng's rank is low, so he can only stand in the last row.

Don't even think about summoning alone.

He heard whispers from several officials.

"The former supervisor of ceremonies returned to Beijing with a pen, and the emperor went to Zhengyangmen to welcome him in person. This is really the first time since the founding of the Ming Dynasty."

"Cough. Eunuch Huai'en is absolutely worthy of such an honor. When the imperial concubine party brought disaster to the country, how many loyal ministers and generals he saved. "

Chang Feng understood.It turned out that the purpose of gathering with the officials in front of the main hall of Qianqing Palace was to follow the king to Zhengyang Gate to welcome Huai En.

He thought that Emperor Hongzhi would entrust him with some important errand.

After a moment of disappointment, Chang Feng burst into joy.He is a madman who loves his sister, Tangtang has been in Nanjing for more than a year, and he wants to kill him.

Our siblings can finally be reunited!
What's more, Eunuch Wynn can be regarded as his big backer.Now that the big backer is returning to Beijing, is he still worried about not getting a chance to perform in front of Emperor Hongzhi?
In the front row of the officials, there stood the elder Sange who was pasted with paper.

It was two months since Emperor Hongzhi ascended to Dabao for the first time.The stability of the court is needed.I haven't freed up my hand to let the old three get out.

Long live!Paper paste Sange Lao is not talking about flowers, birds, fish and insects, not the allusions of Kunqu opera, but the government!

In the past, Sange Lao had never been so active when he was on duty in the cabinet.

Now, just waiting for the emperor to come out of the palace, they all have to discuss the government affairs.

It's nothing more than trying to show a positive attitude in front of Daming's new boss.

Liu Jue said: "The salt affairs in the Lianghuai River and Huaihe River are under 500 million yuan, which leads to the stagnation of commercial quotations and the deterioration of the salt law. What do you think of the first and second assistants?"

Liu Ji said: "Naturally, the Lianghuai Salt Affairs should be investigated."

Liu Jue asked: "How to check."

Liu Ji kicked the ball: "It's up to the chief assistant to make up his mind."

Wan An is a man of great political talent (ahhhhhh).There are only two things in life: this will not, and that will not.

Wan An cleared his throat, and spoke nonsense in a straight voice: "Thirty percent of Ming's finance and tax is in Lianghuai. Forty percent of Lianghuai's finance and tax is in salt affairs."

"The issue of salt affairs is a key issue. We must be cautious when dealing with this issue."

"In my opinion, we still need to think about it, consider it carefully, discuss it, observe it, discuss it, deliberate and deliberate. Then we can make up our minds."

"This matter, ah, we're not saying we won't do it. We're just saying, be careful. Ah, get it."

In order to pretend to be active, the three of them deliberately "discussed government affairs" at the top of their voices, hoping that Emperor Hongzhi in the palace could hear the movement.

Although Chang Feng was standing in the last row, he could hear their conversation clearly.

Chang Feng cursed inwardly: Let Hu Zi enter the cabinet as a cabinet member, probably doing a better job than them.At least Huzi can find money by smell.

The old three can't do anything other than earn money from home.

At this moment, Xiao Jing, the new chief inspector of ceremonies, said loudly: "The emperor gets up, and all the ministers follow!"

Emperor Hongzhi came out of the main hall of Qianqing Palace.

Today, he is no longer the weak prince he was a year ago!His eyes are piercing, showing the air of an emperor.In his eyes, there is a grand ambition to create a prosperous world!

All the officials were astonished, what Emperor Hongzhi wore today was actually a crown robe with a black top and a red bottom!

Mianfu is the most formal attire and sacrificial attire of the Ming emperor.Only when offering sacrifices to heaven and earth, Sheji, Taimiao, Shannong, enthronement, winter solstice, Zhengdan, holy festivals, book worship, and summoning triumphant generals.

Emperor Hongzhi greeted him with his crowned uniform, because he regarded Huai En as a triumphant general.

In Emperor Hongzhi's view, to create a prosperous world, one must use virtuous persons.Whether it is a virtuous minister or a virtuous eunuch!

The crowd followed Emperor Hongzhi to the front of Zhengyang Gate.

Wynn's team back to Beijing hasn't arrived yet.

Emperor Hongzhi issued a decree: "Go five miles out of the city to welcome Huai'en."

Chang Feng was a general of the Han Dynasty before, so he knew some court etiquette.The emperor went out of the city to greet his subjects. Let's put it this way, the last subject to receive such treatment was Xu Da during the Hongwu period.

From the 27th year of the puppet Yuan Zhizheng to the second year of Hongwu, Xu Da made the Northern Expedition, expelled the Yuan captives, restored the Central Plains, and recovered most of the capital.

In the third year of Hongwu, when Xu Da returned to Yingtian, the Taizu and Empress Ma went out of the city for twenty miles to meet him.

Chang Feng said in his heart: The emperor attaches so much importance to Eunuch Wynn.Good thing for me.I'm Eunuch Wynn's confidant.

Emperor Hongzhi's dragon chariot got up and drove forward for five miles.All the ministers walked for five miles.

It was midsummer, and some older ministers were sweating profusely and panting.

Emperor Hongzhi is a new boss who cares about his employees.

He told Xiao Jing: "Your apprentices and grandchildren are too blind! Why don't you send ice towels and iced ebony soup to the veterans?"

Xiao Jing quickly said: "It's the old slave who was negligent."

The last few cars in the Longjia convoy were ice carts.There are two large ice buckets on each ice cart.There are hand towels and ebony soup in it.

Hundreds of young eunuchs were busy distributing ice towels and chilled ebony soup to the officials.

The officials said in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"

After waiting for a while, there was still no sign of Wynn's return team.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Ten miles out to meet you! General Dahan let the horse out, and give it to the old and frail old ministers to ride."

Long Jia traveled another ten miles.Still no sign of Wynn.

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't wait to see Wynn, who had protected him for 13 years.

In a sense, Huai En is the greatest benefactor of Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi opened his golden mouth: "Five miles out to meet you!"

Zhou Hongmo, Minister of Rites, couldn't bear it anymore.He went out of the shift and said: "Report to the emperor. Don't go out for five miles!"

Emperor Hongzhi asked: "Oh? Zhou Qing, why not?"

Zhou Hongmo said: "Eunuch Huai'en returned to Beijing, and the emperor went out of the city fifteen miles to meet him, which is already an extraordinary reward."

"If you travel another five miles, it will be twenty miles. When King Zhongshan made his triumphant return from the Northern Expedition, the Son of Heaven only traveled twenty miles to meet him."

"Eunuch Huai En is the number one virtuous eunuch since the founding of the country. But if he gets the same honor as King Zhongshan, I'm afraid the always modest old man will feel guilty!"

Zhou Hongmo is very good at talking.In front of Emperor Hongzhi, Huai En was praised as "the first virtuous eunuch", which catered to Emperor Hongzhi.There are also well-founded objections to continue southward to meet them.

Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "Zhou Qing is polite. I and Zhu Qing will wait here."

Finally, Emperor Hongzhi saw Wynn's figure appearing in the distance.

Wynn didn't take the car.As a show of respect, he got out of the car and walked since entering the suburbs of Beijing.

Tangtang followed Wynn every step of the way.Like a little guard.

When Huai En saw the dragon chariot, his old waist was no longer sore, and Lao Han's legs were no longer hurting. He even started to run, and ran towards the dragon chariot with vigorous steps.

Tangtang also swung her two calves and ran after him.

While running, Wynn's old tears fell from the corners of his eyes without any pretense.

That five-year-old child, facing 13 years of open and dark arrows, finally grew up without any danger!Became the big son of tomorrow!

Everything I have done in the past 13 years has been worth it!

Those maids and eunuchs who died at the hands of Concubine Wan Gui to protect him, their blood was not in vain!

Wynn is rootless and has no children.He watched Emperor Hongzhi grow up.

To be disrespectful, sometimes deep down in his heart, Huai En regards Emperor Hongzhi as his own child.

He and his relationship have surpassed master and servant, almost like father and son!
