In the process of reforming the seowon, there was a lot of corruption, and the extortion was also violent. Chen Hong reported all these things to Zhu Youxiao.

There are more twists and turns in this, and there are more dark things, but Zhu Youxiao didn't let Chen Hong pursue it, but just said, "Check it out." ”

"Have you written it all?" Zhu Youxiao turned his head to look at Chen Hong and asked directly.

"Back to the emperor, I've written it all down." Chen Hong hurriedly agreed.

"Bring it, I'll take a look." Zhu Youxiao said expressionlessly, reached out and took a small red notebook from Chen Hong's hand, and looked through it gently.

The name, time, and place of each person, who they met, and how much money they embezzled, are all clearly written in this little book.

This is Zhu Youxiao's small book of grudges, and naturally he can't take it out now. When it comes time to take it out later, this little notebook will play a huge role.

Handing the small book to Chen Hong, Zhu Youxiao said lightly: "Put it away." ”

At such a time, doing this kind of thing is also a very helpless choice for Zhu Youxiao. Because many people don't want to do something like college reform, only people like Choi Chengxiu are willing to do it.

With such people, they will not be able to avoid corruption. If they were punished in the name of corruption, then no one would have done it.

It has to be said that this is the sorrow of the emperor. Knowing that corruption is inappropriate, you need to condone them.

However, Zhu Youxiao believes that this is only the beginning, and it will definitely be much better than it is now.

When the reform of the Royal Academy is completed, new talents will be cultivated for him. When the time comes, you can choose someone from the academy, and someone will do things for him.

When these people need to be in the position in the future, this little book will be able to play a role; Or when Zhu Youxiao is short of money, it is also the time for this small book to reappear.

Now it can only be pressed under the box.

The reform of the Royal Academy has come to an end, and Zhu Youxiao can concentrate on other aspects. It's just that before Zhu Youxiao thought too much, his energy was attracted by the noise outside.

An old eunuch quickly ran in from the corridor outside, came straight to Zhu Youxiao, and said with surprise: "Emperor, the queen mother is about to give birth!" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Youxiao stood up suddenly.

This matter is very, very important to Zhu Youxiao, and it is very, very important to Daming.

When the emperor has an heir, it means that there is a successor. You must know that in the original history, although I don't know for what reason, Zhu Youxiao has no successor.

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhu Youxiao walked directly to the harem.

Chen Hong also hurriedly followed. I've been with my own emperor for so long, and I haven't seen him run faster than today.

When Zhu Youxiao arrived at Empress Zhang's dormitory, there were already many people gathered here, including elderly grandmothers in the palace, old palace maids with delivery experience, and imperial doctors waiting on the side.

Everyone is on standby.

Empress Zhang had already entered the delivery room, and the palace maids went in with basins of hot water, disinfection was already underway, and the shouts in the room also rang out.

Zhu Youxiao's whole body became nervous.

As a human being in two lives, this is the first time that a woman has waited for a woman to give birth to a child for him, and it is impossible to say that he is not nervous.

Walking back and forth in place, Zhu Youxiao raised his head from time to time to look inside the house.

The news soon spread to the outer court, and the queen was about to give birth.

All of a sudden, the outer court was also alarmed.

His Majesty is going to have an heir, which is good news for everyone.

The three elders of the cabinet ran to the palace as soon as possible, and the other courtiers were waiting quietly. They also want to enter the palace, but they don't have the qualifications.

In addition, Empress Zhang's family also ran into the palace, and Zhang Guoji, the national abbot, was the first to arrive.

After waiting for more than two hours, the cry of a child and the cheers of all the palace ladies finally came from inside the room.

A person ran out of the house in a frenzy, knelt directly in front of Zhu Youxiao, and said loudly: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!" There are successors to the Ming Dynasty, and the queen mother gave birth to a dragon! ”

Hearing this, Zhu Youxiao breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly asked, "How is the queen?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the queen mother is no longer in trouble." The old palace maid hurriedly said.

Zhu Youxiao laughed and said, "Okay, okay, get up!" Today everyone has a reward, and all the people in the palace give wine and meat! ”

At this time, the three pavilion elders also hurriedly bowed down and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!" ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded, and said with a smile: "The three Aiqing, all the officials in Beijing in the DPRK and the central government have doubled this month. My prince was born, and all the courtiers in the court were rewarded. You draw up a charter. ”

After these words came out, all three of them bowed down and said, "Yes, Your Majesty,"

Although they had bright smiles on their faces, Han Yi and the three of them were all complaining in their hearts.

Now there is another expense, but this thing cannot be left undone. The emperor gave birth to a son, who is likely to be the future crown prince, and this money cannot be less.

What's more, the capital is in chaos now, and people are flustered, because the reform of the academy is in an uproar, and now it is time to rush with the birth of the prince.

Han Yi and the three didn't say anything more. At this time, my majesty may not be able to listen to anything.

In the next few days, it is natural to celebrate Zhu Youxiao's birth of a child.

And at this moment, Liaodong City is also celebrating.

Xiong Tingbi held the wine bowl, drank a sip of wine into his stomach, and said with a laugh: "The first batch of rewards from the imperial court has come down, and I will share it with you later." ”

When they heard this, they laughed and drank.

Since Xiong Tingbi arrived in Liaodong, the situation in Liaodong has changed.

Originally, everyone was a character that was not loved by dad and not loved by grandma, but now it is different. With Xiong Tingbi here, all good things are remembered in Liaodong.

This is His Majesty's favorite minister, and this time the reward is very rich.

After everyone had drunk the wine, Xiong Tingbi said, "In addition, there is another good news for you. ”

While pouring the wine, Xiong Tingbi said, "The imperial court is going to restart the title." Originally, there were only dukes and uncles in the imperial court, but now it is said that there are viscounts and barons. ”

"And this time we win the battle in Liaodong, and the imperial court will give viscounts and barons to those who have made meritorious contributions. Although it is lower, it is a title after all, and it can be passed down to the family. I don't need to say more about what that means, right? ”

After hearing this, everyone present became excited.

Li Guangrong hurriedly asked, "Is this really what the marshal said?" ”

Hearing Li Guangrong's words, Xiong Tingbi glared at him and said, "Can the news from the capital be fake?" I'll tell you, it's true. This is all the grace of Your Majesty! With this title, future generations will not be able to enjoy it. ”

"If you don't have a meritorious service, you have to work hard! If you have a title, don't be complacent, continue to work hard, strive to raise the title, and one day be crowned a marquis. ”

"At that time, it will be amazing, and you have to say Hou Ye when you meet."

After hearing this, everyone laughed again, and the atmosphere instantly became warm.

There was a lot of noise inside the house, and the people standing guard outside could hear it clearly.

At this time, a horse came galloping in the distance.

Before coming to the room. The man on horseback quickly jumped off his horse. Let's have a book

The people standing guard hurriedly greeted them.

Now that the atmosphere in the room is so lively, you can't let anyone just go in and disturb it. If this is disturbed, it will be the people who stand guard themselves.

However, after seeing the equipment of the comer, the people standing guard also became serious.

It's a scout.

In the army, scouts are a very special type of troops, and non-brave soldiers are not allowed to be, and the mortality rate is very high every year. So their status is very high and very special.

The doorkeeper hurriedly arched his hand and asked, "But is there anything urgent?" ”

The scout didn't look at him at all, and said directly, "There is an urgent report." ”

After hearing this, the gatekeeper did not dare to delay.

This kind of thing is not every day, but whenever it is involved in the army, it is a major matter related to the military situation.

"Follow me." The gatekeeper said with a calm face, turning to lead the way in front.

The two of them quickly entered the room.

The atmosphere in the room was still very lively, but when a scout walked in, everyone fell silent.

Xiong Tingbi stood up directly and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Commander Qiqi, our people have found out the news, the wild boar skin is dead!" The scout said in a trembling voice.

After hearing this, Xiong Tingbi was stunned, and then looked at the person with a shocked face, and asked in disbelief in his tone: "What you said is that the wild boar skin is dead?" ”

"Yes, Dashuai!" The scout replied with surprise on his face.

After hearing this, all the people in the room couldn't believe it.

After a long silence, someone continued to eat and drink.

Xiong Tingbi asked directly: "How did you die?" Any news? ”

"Not yet." The scout said with some embarrassment, "I just heard that he died." ”

At this time, a person's voice suddenly sounded outside, "I know! ”

Then, two people walked in from outside.

Everyone hurriedly turned their heads to look over and found that it was the Wei Dynasty.

Standing next to the Wei Dynasty was none other than Liao Zhong, the Jinyi Wei Qianhu of Liaodong. This Liao Zhong came recently, and he can be regarded as a newcomer, who is cold and unsmiling.

On weekdays, everyone doesn't know the depth of this Liao Zhong, and they all hide far away.

What he said just now was obviously what Liao Zhong said.

Xiong Tingbi looked at Liao Zhong and asked directly, "Do you Jinyiwei have any news?" ”

Liao Zhong nodded and said, "The news of our Jinyi Guard has come back, and the wild boar skin is indeed dead. ”

"After the last time he was hit by artillery, he was already seriously wounded. After going back, I survived for so many days, and now I am finally dead. ”

After hearing this, the people in the room finally understood what was going on, and they all jumped up with excitement and laughed incessantly.

Xiong Tingbi directly picked up the wine jar, laughed and poured a big mouthful and said, "Happy!" It's so exciting! ”

Everyone in the room burst out laughing and drank their wine.

After drinking, Xiong Tingbi said: "I will immediately write a notebook to report to Your Majesty, and at the same time ask for credit for you." ”

After saying this, Xiong Tingbi strode outside, laughing as he walked.

After Xiong Tingbi left, Wei Chao and Liao Zhong glanced at each other, and both of them shook their heads helplessly.

It's really not time to talk about anything else, everyone is too excited, and the rest of the room has already drunk too much.

The two didn't say anything more, only shook their heads and walked out.

Soon, the news of Nurhachi's death by artillery blew out.

The entire city of Shenyang was excited, and the cheers were endless.

In the capital.

It has been seven days since the prince was born.

In the past seven days, Zhu Youxiao didn't do anything, and he accompanied Empress Zhang in the palace all day long, and he couldn't see enough of his son.

This made the courtiers a little helpless. There are some things in the court that still need to be dealt with by His Majesty, is it inappropriate to do nothing?

But now no one will touch His Majesty's mold, after all, His Majesty's favor for Empress Zhang is something that everyone knows.

Now that Empress Zhang has given birth, His Majesty will definitely not leave. What's more, this is still the prince of the Ming Dynasty, the future prince, and His Majesty's favor should also be.

in the Cabinet.

Han Yi and the three of them were drinking tea and chatting.

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Xu Guangqi said: "Your Majesty's younger brother is already an adult, and now I am afraid that it is no longer suitable to stay in the palace, and he should ask to be outside." ”

After hearing this, Han Yi and the others also nodded.

His Majesty has a younger brother today, and this is something that everyone knows. He has been in the palace for so many years, and now it is finally time to leave the palace.

It's just that there wasn't a good opportunity to bring it up before, and now is the right time. His Majesty already has a prince, and it is not very suitable to put this younger brother in the palace.

Seeing that Han Yi and the two agreed, Xu Guangqi said, "Then join the last questionbook, right?" ”

Han Yi and the two nodded again.

There is nothing to discuss in this matter, after all, the three of them agree, and there is nothing unreasonable.

So Han Yi and the three of them quickly wrote a question book and quickly sent it to the palace.

Ouchi of the Imperial Palace.

Zhu Youxiao soon received this question book. At this time, he was still by Empress Zhang's side.

Taking the question book from Chen Hong's hand and looking through it quickly, Zhu Youxiao was a little stunned.

If it weren't for Han Yi and them mentioning it, he would have forgotten about Chongzhen.

Since Zhu Youxiao crossed, he has never been very close to this younger brother, and he has always been raised in the harem, and he has not even seen him much.

Now that I think about it, my younger brother is actually an adult and is about to be released, Zhu Youxiao is really in a trance. But this matter should be done, and there is nothing to be done.

Zhu Youxiao returned the question book to Chen Hong and said directly: "This matter, let the celebrant approve it." At the same time, let the cabinet draw up a title and send it as soon as possible. ”

Chen Hong, who was standing behind Zhu Youxiao, hurriedly said, "Yes, Emperor." ”
