Two days passed quickly, and Wang Ziteng embarked on a journey to the northwest.
With his departure, things are far from over.
In order to cope with the upcoming war in the northwest, the imperial court not only increased supplies of grain, grass and weapons, but also once again mobilized troops from Sichuan, Gansu, Shaanxi and Beijing Camp to go north.
At the same time, as the recruitment order was issued, the chieftains in Tibet and the various tribes and alliances in the northwest were also gathering their own troops.
If nothing happens, a large-scale war will break out after this winter is over.
Once the war machine was in operation, the various ministries of the imperial court were busier than before.
However, the trees wanted to be quiet but the wind was not stopping. Just when Zhu Xianming felt that he could breathe a sigh of relief, bad news came from Jinling again.
In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Xianming, who had been busy all morning, was having his lunch in the side hall.
"Your Majesty, an urgent report has been sent from Jinling Qianhu Office"
Looking at Cheng Ying in front of him, Zhu Xianming said in a deep voice "Read"
After King Xiang's selection of his concubine, Zhu Xianming felt uncomfortable whenever he thought of Lao Liu, and the idea of passing the throne to Lao Liu was disintegrating in his heart.
After explaining her thoughts in detail to Zhu Yunsheng, Zhen Qin looked around at everyone and felt that the position of the concubine should be stable. There was no way two girls could still compete with her.
After giving these instructions, Zhu Xianming waved his hand, indicating that Cheng Ying could go on his errands.
Hearing this, Zhu Xianming frowned and said, "What happened?"
Getting up from the chair and walking towards the outside of the hall, Zhu Xianming asked, "Who do you plan to recommend?"
"Dad, my son thought about this carefully when he went back, and after thinking about it, he thought of two people."
After Zhu Xianming scolded him, there was a "pop", but he saw that he directly took away his job Dunked on the table, the beautifully decorated imperial bowl broke into several pieces.
"I tell you, if you don't go tomorrow I will go by myself. Why don't I live with Lao Shisan over there, and I will be angry with you even if I stay here in Kunning Palace"
This kind of temporary policy inquiry can test the prince's true thoughts.
Obviously this is another temporary teaching test. This happens from time to time, so Zhu Jingyuan is not panicking at the moment.
"The main purpose of the imperial court is to determine the land and formulate a tax system based on the actual situation. The original intention is to reduce the burden on the common people"
"Yes"
Although the civil unrest He was put down again, but this time Zhu Xianming had made up his mind to dig out the people behind it, so the previous decree would not change.
"Yes"
Hearing Xiangyun's persuasion, Daiyu nodded slightly, picked up a handkerchief and wiped away her tears.
"Since he doesn't change, let's continue to stay."
Zhu Yunsheng's words played into Zhen Qin's hands, and she played a trick on this matter. A lot of effort.
Originally, the Tianfu civil uprising had been suppressed, but now at the time of turmoil in the northwest, it hasWhen something like this happens, it really becomes a situation of internal and external troubles.
"Who are we angry about?" Yang Qingyin asked curiously.
"You can't completely trust the Jinling Qianhu Office. Your Beizhen Fusi also sent people to investigate carefully in secret."
After Li Qingxiang received the order and retreated, Zhu Xianming continued He ordered "Immediately pass the decree to the Ministry of War and order the Jinling Governor to start quelling the chaos."
"Report to my father, this is a joint discussion between the ministers and the scholars"
Although the matter seemed simple, it was However, Zhu Xianming knew that someone must be instigating him behind the scenes to cause the current situation.
After everyone in the hall exited, Yang Qingyin picked up the chopsticks and personally served Zhu Xianming with the dishes.
The emperor was so angry that he was bleeding and drifting.
"Your Majesty's words are too outrageous. You and I are husband and wife after all. It is my duty to serve Your Majesty as a concubine. How can I be so polite as I have nothing to do?" Yang Qingyin said with a smile.
"My son thinks"
After more than half a year of adaptation, Zhen Qin has now come out of the loss and is full of hope for life again.
"Isn't it just because of the little thing about the Xue family girl? This girl stayed in Shanglinyuan for more than two months and personally cooked for the three brothers. She did all the dirty and tiring work, and you still Is there anything to be dissatisfied with?"
As for the common people who caused trouble, all those who could be caught were arrested, and then exiled to Annan to guard the border. This was also a routine operation in the past ten years.
Coupled with the people sent by Fusi in Beizhen and the spies sent by Dongchang long ago, there are three groups of people from the royal family alone investigating, and they can find out the whole story to the greatest extent possible.
If it were in the pre-Ming Dynasty, the emperor would at least summon his cabinet ministers to discuss such a major event, but the development now depends entirely on the emperor's will.
"Yes"
"Yes"
"My son thinks it is more appropriate for Liang Qian to go"
"Yes"
But he was not panicked at all, because after he returned to the East Palace, he carefully discussed this matter with a group of bachelors and came up with two extremely suitable candidates.
Immediately Zhu Xianming asked, "Tell me, should the court implement the New Deal?"
At this time, Yang Qingyin didn't know how to defend herself, so she could only laugh and say, "He He's such a bad tempered person."
"Let's go and take a look. Now he knows he was wrong. He has been tempered there for so long. I think all those bad habits have changed." Yang Qingyin continued to say good things, for The next step is to prepare for rescuing his son.
As for the situation in the northwest, there is nothing much to say. Both parties have made clear their plans and started preparing for war. They will start fighting as soon as this winter is over.
"But the stupidity of local officials made it difficult for the people to understand the difficulties of the court, so these misunderstandings occurred."
"I"
"Go and deal with it again. Dai Quan called over."
The report just now was delivered by him personally.
"Well, who is the other person?"
If the emperor is really determined not to give up, no matter what tricks Yang Qingyin plays,It was useless. The only effect of what she did was to give the emperor a step down, and then the relationship between father and son could be eased.
"More than two months have passed since the beginning of September, and I don't know how Sister Bao is doing."
The two girls were talking, while Zhen Qin was following on the other side. Zhu Yunsheng said, "Princess, let's bring more things tomorrow, prepare food and entertainment, and try our best to make the Thirteenth Master live a better life."
"Why"
In the current era , the governor is a temporary dispatch, and is only set up to do extraordinary things at extraordinary times. He will be dismissed as soon as the matter is completed.
It is actually not outrageous that the situation has developed to this point. It is unrealistic to expect these people, who usually work peacefully, to confront the government and soldiers.
As for Kunning Palace, Zhu Yunsheng was so happy that she jumped up because she had convinced the queen that they could go see her brother together tomorrow.
We were going to meet each other tomorrow, but it made Daiyu feel sad, and Xiangyun who was watching from the side shook his head repeatedly.
"Yes"
The prince began to talk. Today he was recognized by his father twice, which made him particularly confident in his answers.
“Those losers in Jinling are all trash,” the emperor still scolded.
In the dining room of Kunning Palace, the emperor and the empress were sitting opposite each other. At this moment, the palace maids were serving delicious food.
At this moment, since the emperor had "subdued", Yang Qingyin also understood the principle of giving in when something is good, so she said, "Your Majesty is really broad-minded, but I am ignorant of the truth. I should be punished and I should be punished by your Majesty." "Commitment"
In the study room, Zhu Xianming said "hmm" after hearing this, and the little eunuch who made the report retreated voluntarily.
Picking up the chopsticks, Zhu Xianming said calmly, "Lao Si recommended Liang Qian to be the governor of Jinling. Lao Liu is secretly looking for someone, and he wants to find Liang Qian."
Especially Those who are causing trouble behind the scenes must be dug out and punished severely this time.
"Then you should have instigated this bastard, Old Thirteen." Zhu Xianming changed the subject and indirectly admitted that he was indulging in Old Sixth.
Zhu Xianming smiled and then said, "Then take it as your wish. In that case, send Liang Qian to patrol Jinling."
"The Liyang County government failed to respond in time, so the people Rushing into the city, the city was in chaos and the people fled. The county magistrate Chen Anhuai was arrested."
Working as the eunuch in charge of Qianqing Palace, I have a bad memory and can't do it at all. At this moment, Cheng Yingzheng is memorizing it carefully.
"I've thought of this, maybe that's all I brought with me, nothing new," Zhu Yunsheng said helplessly.
Even Li Qingxiang, who was waiting outside the hall, was so frightened when he heard the movement that he shook his body and raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
Turn around, Zhu Xianming then asked, "Is this your idea, or the intention of the scholars of the East Palace?"
The Chief of Ceremonies was not far from the Qianqing Palace, and Dai Quan quickly Appearing in front of Zhu Xianming, he was given another errand. To put it simply, he was to send another group of people to Jinling.
Emergency message from Jin YiweiReport, just this sentence told him that it was bad news.
"He complains all day long, saying that my father's treatment is unfair, and he also said that he was picked up. You don't know this, right?" Zhu Xianming said with an unhappy face.
After Dai Quan took the order and left, Prince Zhu Jingyuan hurried over. At this moment, Zhu Xianming had already eaten and was reading.
The Jinling Dusi was just beginning to mobilize troops. When the rebels heard the news, they dispersed and robbed Liyang County along the way.
In this matter, the Liyang gentry shot themselves in the foot. After all, most of the robbed Liyang County towns were their properties.
But later the situation in Jinling calmed down and the matter was dropped. Who would have thought that the emperor would ask again now.
Soon Li Qingxiang entered the palace. Zhu Xianming first scolded him a few words, and then ordered him to send a message to the Jinling Qianhu Office, asking him to find out the whole story.
"Yes" Li Qingxiang answered carefully.
"Prince, last time I asked you to select officials to appease Jinling, now you have a settlement."
The emperor is the emperor after all. If he is really angry, even as a queen, he has to Accuse.
Zhu Xianming did not pay attention to small civil unrest. He paid more attention to the people who were hiding behind and causing trouble.
Yang Qingyin was worried about not knowing how to answer the question. After hearing this, she immediately said, "Tomorrow I plan to visit Old Thirteen. Do you want to come with me?"
Prince Recommended There is another similarity between these two people. Both of them are of the third rank, and the highest official rank in Jinling is the third rank. By sending these two people, they can steadily suppress the place.
"Your Majesty, the Queen has asked you to come over for dinner."
"The old man named Zhu is my lifeblood. I have been beaten and punished by you all these years." That's it. Now that you are so harsh on him, do you want my life?"
"Okay, okay, I forgive you for using these false politenesses. Do you want to eat this dinner? Zhu Xianming said angrily.
Zhu Jingyuan never expected that the old man called him here for this matter.
Of course, Yang Qingyin would not know what the emperor was thinking, so she asked, "What does this have to do with me? Isn't it something you set up?"
About half an hour later, It was time for dinner, and the emperor himself was invited.
Zhu Jingyuan then replied, "Liang Qian, the deputy censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, is an upright and thorough man. When he was the censor of the Procuratorate of Shaanxi Province, he once led to Zhu Jinlong's major corruption case."
p>"Your Majesty, please use it"
Limited by his knowledge, after talking about the benefits of the New Deal, he still pointed out its shortcomings, which made the emperor dissatisfied with him again .
If these people are not dug out, firstly, the implementation of the New Deal will be hindered, and secondly, it will be difficult to eliminate his hatred.
Obviously, Zhen Qin has set her sights on this position. As far as she is concerned, as long as she enters Prince Xiang's Mansion, she will not be embarrassed by her sisters in the clan.
“On the first day of November, the official of Liyang County, Yingtian Prefecture,He went to Shangtian Village to re-explore the land, and he clashed with the villagers and killed three people. The people were so angry that they killed the officials and then gathered in the county town."
The only person worthy of attention and intervention is Zasa, who is on the verge of getting out of control. If the Khanate rebels against the imperial court, it will have to adjust its strategy.
"There is an inspectorate in Jinling. If we send people from the Ministry of Punishment again, it will appear that the imperial court does not trust the place."
Cheng Ying bowed and left, and Zhu Xianming returned to the dining table. The place had been cleaned up and a bowl of rice was served again.
However, the next moment, Zhu Xianming said, "Why don't you go to Shanglin Garden to see it." It's up to you if I just let you go. How big of a deal is it worth for you to make such a fuss?"
Hearing this, Yang Qingyin finally felt at ease, and at the same time felt that she had figured out the emperor's thoughts.
p>
Cheng Ying opened the letter, unfolded it and read, "Beizhen Fusi Left Office, forward to Jinling Qianhu Report"
"Yes"
The queen was too considerate. Zhu Xianming was a little uncomfortable with it, so he asked, "What do you want to do to be courteous for nothing?"
The speed of the queen's change of expression made Zhu Xianming stunned, but because of his old wife's red eyes, he did not dare to continue with her.
"Another order was sent to the Chief Secretary of Jinling, asking them to try to stabilize the situation and never allow other prefectures and counties to cause trouble."
Seeing that the queen was getting more and more outrageous, Zhu Xianming finally He couldn't help but say "enough"
After saying this, Cheng Ying lowered his head consciously. He could guess how angry the emperor was now.
It was better this time, although it was not. Yingtian City was surrounded, but he broke into the county town and detained all the county magistrates.
"You all, stand down."
The prince looked around. Zhu Xianming's answer really impressed Zhu Xianming. He originally thought that the prince would say that the people's rebellion must be due to the oppression of the government.
But the fourth child he wanted to give the position to was unable to support the world in all aspects. This made Zhu Xianming even more depressed and uncomfortable.
After the last civil uprising subsided, Zhu Xianming did not allow further investigation in order to prevent further trouble.
"Besieged by the rioters"<. /p>
"I think you are going too far now"
A few more days passed, and before the emperor's decree was delivered, more news came back from Jinling < /p>
"It's just that my son has little knowledge and is afraid of missing important matters for his father, so he dare not speak nonsense." Zhu Jingyuan's attitude is extremely humble.
After all, they are brothers and sisters who grew up together, so they treat Zhu Jinghong as the third son. Brother, Zhu Yunsheng is still very concerned.
"Your Majesty has a universal mind, why are you so careless?"
After entering the palace, Zhu Jingyuan was called up after saluting, and Zhu Xianming also put down his book.
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, there was a "pop" sound, but it was Yang Qingyin who slapped the chopsticks on the table.
For example, if Zhu Xianming was angry at this time, that would be fine. Make a decision directly
"This is not how the Queen talks to me when she is blushing" Zhu Xianming.He said calmly.
According to the court system, there should be two concubines for the prince. Even if Yang Jingting takes one, there is still one spot left.
Of course, the two people who were recommended also supported the prince's eldest son, and could be regarded as one of the Dong Palace's own.
“There have been civil commotions in Jinling many times. What does the prince think of this?”
“With Master Thirteen taking care of me, Sister Bao will definitely not be wronged”
< p>"Call the prince here"The prince followed and replied, "Li Guichun, the minister of the Ministry of Justice, is thoughtful and responsive. He was the inspector of Annan seven years ago and once quelled the civil uprising in Xing'an Prefecture"< /p>
After saying this, the queen really stood up from her chair, and then knelt down to confess her sin.
The face of the imperial court and the implementation of the New Deal forced Zhu Xianming not to tolerate it.
"Trash"
The dozen or so eunuchs serving in the hall quickly knelt on the ground and crouched on the ground, trembling as if they were facing an abyss.
Although it was the emperor who shouted for beatings and punishments, Yang Qingyin knew better than anyone that she loved her youngest son as much as he did.
"Watch him, watch what he does, and I will get angry when I see him." At this point, Zhu Xianming put down the chopsticks he had just picked up.
"Let Li Qingxiang come in" Zhu Xianming knew that this guy was outside.
Getting up and coming to Cheng Ying, Zhu Xianming took the letter in his hand and read it carefully.
Stopping on the Danbi Stone outside the main hall of Qianqing Palace, Zhu Xianming turned around and asked, "Who do you think is the most suitable of these two people?"
After all, the queen's biological niece is the only one. She's just a concubine.
"It doesn't matter if you have a universal mind, I still have to be angry with you"
"Your Majesty taught you a lesson, you taught him a lesson." Yang Qingyin sat back on the chair again.
“Don’t let Old Thirteen know about going to Shanglin Garden. I want to see how they live their lives.”
