Invincible Zhengde

Chapter 403 Father and Son

In fact, Zhu Houzhao had already selected many candidates, but finally found that there were really no suitable candidates.

The main reason is that this job is not easy to do, it is a job that offends people, not everyone is willing to do it, and not everyone can do it well.

The person Zhu Houzhao wanted had to be ruthless and bottomless.

In this way, Liu Qi was the most suitable choice, and Zhu Houzhao naturally recommended him.

As for whether Liu Qi is willing to do it or not, that is not his personal decision.

The officialdom is a chessboard, and everyone is a pawn on this chessboard.

But there are not many people who really play chess, Liu Qi is not the one who plays chess, he can only be a chess piece.

If he retreated safely at the beginning, then that's all.

But he didn't, he plotted more, he wanted more, so now Liu Qi is a pawn who has crossed the river, and he has no turning back.He can only keep moving forward.

And the one who made him move forward was Zhu Houzhao, the chess player.

Glancing at his son, Zhu Youtang sighed, this son really made no secret of it.

But that's good too, at least the son did it on the bright side and didn't hide it from himself.

But there are some things that the son doesn't seem to be afraid that he, the emperor, will know.

"Liu Qi is fine, but what do you want him to do?" Zhu Youtang said with a little hesitation: "He is the Minister of the Household Department now. If you let him go, you will have to give him the position of Yudu Yushi. Do you think it is suitable?"

"My son thinks it's just right." Zhu Houzhao said again.

In fact, Zhu Hou looked after not the censor of the right capital at all, but the censor of the left capital, that is, the helm of the inspectorate.

He wanted Liu Qi to control the Metropolitan Procuratorate, so that the Procuratorate was in his hands.

No matter how I want to rectify and reform, coupled with the establishment of the Investigation Department, the Inspectorate is completely in my hands, which will really be of great benefit to my future reforms.

But judging by his father's appearance, it is estimated that there is no play.

The current Zuodu Yushi is Dai Shan, who is the confidant of the father, and I am afraid it will not be easy for him to move him.

Zhu Houzhao could only think about it.

Not to mention other things, just the position of a cabinet bachelor, and the father has not given it to himself until now.

You must know that there are only three grand scholars in the current cabinet, which is actually a small number.

Even without replacement, without replacing any of the three of them, new people can be added.

But for such a long time, Dad has not let go.

In fact, Zhu Houzhao really wanted a cabinet position to arrange for his own people, such as Hubu Shangshu Qiyou.

This civil servant who was the first to follow him has helped him a lot in recent years.If he is allowed to be a cabinet scholar, not to mention how much his actual power will increase, the key is that the symbolic meaning is too great.

This is equivalent to telling the people in the prince's line that as long as you work hard, you can get enough benefits and step into the center of power without waiting for the prince to ascend the throne.

It's very tempting.

You must know that there are many ministers in the court now, and they are not very cold about Zhu Houzhao, the prince.

One of the big reasons is because the old man is in good health and there is no risk of death in a short time.

There is no need for them to rely on Zhu Houzhao, the prince.Because Dad will cover us.And when the prince Zhu Houzhao ascended the throne, they will be almost old, and they can even retire.

So they were not too fond of Zhu Houzhao.

But if there is Qi You as an example, those who have no hope of entering the cabinet will directly take refuge in the name of the prince Zhu Houzhao, in order to fight for a future.

This matter is too sensitive, so Zhu Houzhao's operation has been failing.

In fact, Zhu Houzhao knew that his father had feelings too, so he never agreed.

Because if he really did this, he, the emperor, might be at risk of being ostracized.This is something he doesn't allow, he's pampered himself enough now.

Therefore, Zhu Houzhao has no way to fight. Youdu Yushi is Youdu Yushi. Some things can't be rushed, just take your time.Once you really have power, a name doesn't matter anymore.

Seeing that his son agreed, Zhu Youtang nodded, and then said: "Okay, these two things are settled like this. Do you have anything else?"

"Go back to father, I have nothing else to do." Zhu Houzhao bowed and said.

Zhu Youtang nodded, then turned the conversation around, and said, "I don't ask about some things because I believe in you, and you don't want to let me down. Don't make too much noise about Qing Yezi's matter, and do it as soon as possible." Ok."

After hearing what his father said, Zhu Houzhao's expression did not change much.

In fact, he knew that he couldn't hide this matter from his father, and he didn't intend to hide it, so he would be a little unscrupulous when he used few people.

Because if you keep it from Dad, things will only get worse.

"Yes, Father. I understand." Zhu Houzhao agreed, and then said: "If Father has nothing to do, then I will leave."

"Go, go!" Zhu Youtang sighed, then waved his hands.

When Zhu Houzhao left, Zhu Youtang looked at his son's back, and said with a little sigh: "This son of mine is good everywhere, he just wants to do things quickly, and wants to solve everything quickly, simple and rude."

The eunuch standing beside Zhu Youtang bowed his body and did not dare to say a word, as if he had not heard the emperor's words at all.

You can make complaints about the prince, who is His Majesty in front of you, so why don't you try to make complaints about it?It is estimated that he will die miserably.

Zhu Youtang didn't expect anyone to pay attention to him, he turned his head to look at the old eunuch, and asked, "Have you figured out what's going on?"

"Return to Your Majesty, there has been news that something has indeed been found in the residence of Qin Yong, Minister of Taichang Temple." The old eunuch said quickly.

"The purpose of that Qing Yezi's entry into the palace is not pure, it seems that he really came with something. The people of His Royal Highness are also investigating the specific matter, but there is no news yet."

"It has now been found out that Qin Yongjing, the Minister of Taichang Temple, offered green leaves to the palace because of his concubine's instigation. His concubine was actually a prostitute who was brought here in Jiangxi. She was sent to Qin Yong's steward. Qin Yong's steward gave her to Qin Yong."

"This concubine is pregnant with a child, but this child is indeed the housekeeper's. Qing Yezi came to the capital half a year ago, and this concubine also came to the capital half a year ago. They are all from Jiangxi."

"According to this little concubine's confession, the reason why she encouraged Qin Yong to send Qing Ye Zi to the palace was also because of the request of the housekeeper. Now it can be concluded that the whole thing was planned by someone."
