Chapter 97: You can't eat meat for three days

"The minister thinks that the Nanjing garrison is also an important position, so it is better to let the British guard the north, and the Chengguo guard the south, and use both talents to protect my Ming."

Xie Qian lowered his head and pursed his lips, whenever Liu Li disagreed, His Majesty always pushed the opportunity to choose to him.

Emperor Hongzhi nodded.

There are as many as nine sides in the Ming Dynasty, and there are several generals on each side, such as the general soldier, the deputy general soldier, and the ranger general.

There are really no good generals in Beijing, on the other hand, the British Duke and the Chengguo Duke are extremely suitable.

"Xie Qing's family is reasonable, let's do it, let Cheng Shanbo, Jin Ningbo, these old ministers retire, and the two princes will be on the throne, which can be regarded as a matter of urgency."

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed after Wang Shouren's mission.

On this day, Yan Chengjin studied the impeachment in the Ministry of Industry.

The officials scold people without revealing their dirty, and they can scold people to the point of punishing their hearts, each with their own skills, which is really a kind of knowledge.

Yan Chengjin humbly asked the officials of the Ministry of Industry for advice on how to write the impeachment recital.

However, there are very few civil officials in the Ministry of Industry who have been impeached, and most of them have been impeached, and there is really nothing to be learned.

Yan Chengjin couldn't help but think of the three admonitions of Hanlin, the three Shilin who are the best at scolding people in the Hanlin Academy, and the impeachment victory rate is as high as more than ninety percent, and he does not spit out bones when he scolds.

Fortunately, Hanyuan Sanzhi has a good relationship with his father.

Yan Chengjin said to Yang Baocheng, who was reading at Hanlin: "Lord Yang, how to write the impeachment sparse?" ”

Yang Baocheng stroked his beard and smiled: "It's right for you to ask the old man for advice, this Han Yuan, the old man's impeachment is the best written, and you remember that there is no conclusive evidence for impeachment, and the writing is written in the Spring and Autumn Period." ”

"This official has three non-plays, no Qingliu, no cabinet, no Metropolitan Procuratorate, if you want to talk about the experience, that is, the pros and cons of the situation, every word is beautiful, and the overall situation has risen to the level of the country." Hanlin lectures on Li Qingdao.

Hanlin edited Wu Jian: "Don't play for fame and fortune, don't play for authority." ”

I can listen to it vigorously.

Zhu Houzhao sent a eunuch to invite Yan Chengjin and let him go to the East Palace.

Yan Chengjin followed the little eunuch to the East Palace: "There is no feast today, what is the matter with His Highness looking for ministers?" ”

"Hey! How dare you speak to Your Highness like this, and you don't even bow down! ”

Yan Chengjin found out that the eunuchs around Zhu Houzhao had changed, and he didn't look like a good person with bared teeth and grinning, but sure enough, the eunuchs were not bad, and he didn't love them.

He saw Zhu Houzhao in private and never saluted, this new long-term eunuch probably didn't understand the situation.

Zhu Houzhao kicked him: "Get out of the way!" ”

Zhang Yong smiled flatteringly, glanced at Yan Chengjin again as if wary, and really got out.

Yan Chengjin can understand him, and he has gone through a lot of hardships to climb to this position, of course, he has to please him in every way.

But he seemed to underestimate his little Hanlin, and even beat Zhu Houzhao so hard that he was so ruthless.

Zhu Houzhao smiled: "Xiao is clumsy, the palace let him go to the palace prison, Lao Gao, Zhang Yong has a lot of ideas, but sometimes he owes some beatings." ”

Zhang Yong, one of the Eight Tigers?

Yan Chengjin didn't bother to look at him: "Your Highness called me here, just to tell the minister to change his companion?" ”

Zhu Houzhao danced with his hands: "Of course not, there is going to be a princess in this palace!" Guess who it is? ”

Zeng Yuanyuan, the entire court knows.

Yan Chengjin said: "The minister can't guess." ”

Zhu Houzhao was happy again: "This palace knows that you can't guess that it is Zeng Yuanyuan, the daughter of Zeng's mansion!" Guess why Hongu chose her? ”

"............" Yan Chengjin.

"Your Highness, can you finish it in one sitting?"

Zhu Houzhao said stupidly: "There are no brothers in this palace, there are no playmates since childhood, and the son of this palace can't be like this palace!" The Zeng family Ding is prosperous, the queen mother and the queen mother are also very satisfied, this palace will give birth to many sons, one will be the emperor, and the rest will go to war with the palace, this palace has seen Zeng Yuanyuan, she is a great beauty!

What's more, Zeng Jian is not like Master Li, he has to manage the palace, and it is okay to be the old Taishan of the palace. ”

Yan Chengjin expressed doubts about Zhu Houzhao's strength.

Zhu Houzhao said happily again: "Boss Gao, what kind of dowry gift does this palace give to the Zeng family?" ”

"Your Majesty will naturally consider it, so Your Highness should not worry about it." Yan Chengjin Road.

Zhu Houzhao insisted: "The palace also wants to give its own dowry!" ”

Yan Chengjin thought about it carefully and said: "The minister saw from the ancient books that in the west of the poisonous country, there is a place called Da Lei Yin Temple, and there is a heavy treasure in the temple, called the relic, which is the most valuable treasure that the minister knows." ”

Zhu Houzhao looked suspicious and blinked: "Why does this palace think that you are fooling this palace again?" ”

Yan Chengjin's expression was calm: "The minister saw it in the Book of Mountains and Seas, if it is a deception, it is also a deception in the Book of Mountains and Seas, to be honest, the minister does not know the truth, how can His Highness know if he doesn't try, in case there is, anyway, he doesn't have to go in person." ”

"Seems to be right!" Zhu Houzhao laughed out loud unkindly, and he didn't have to go by himself anyway.

Then he ordered someone to call Zhang Yong in and said: "The big wedding of this palace is imminent, I heard that there is a heavy treasure in the poisonous country, called the relic, you go to help the palace get it back." ”

Zhang Yong looked confused.

Looking at Zhu Houzhao speechless, how long has he been out, why are he going to the poison country?

"Your Highness...... Where is the poisonous country? ”

Zhu Houzhao thought for a while and said: "I don't know this palace, since it's the west, then we should go west, right, Lao Gao?" ”

"Your Highness is so smart!" Yan Chengjin gave a thumbs up.

Zhang Yong suddenly reacted, he was cheated, he was cheated, he was cheated, he only met once, and he died!

He was so frightened that his soul was gone, the corners of his mouth cracked, he cried out, knelt at Yan Chengjin's feet and begged for mercy: "Lord Yan, the slave is wrong, the slave is wrong." ”

"No, you're not wrong." Yan Chengjin said from the bottom of his heart.

"The slave is really wrong, please, spare the slave this time!"

You're really right, I'm sorry for you, who made you call Zhang Yong?

Yan Chengjin suddenly felt a little guilty.

However, what Zhu Houzhao decided was something he could easily change.

In fact, Yan Chengjin knew that Zhu Houzhao himself was also happy to see people looking for excitement, otherwise he would not have moved him so easily.

This guy is still having fun.

raised another Eight Tigers, Yan Chengjin suddenly felt that his figure was a little taller.

From then on, there were still six tigers left in the palace.

Zhu Houzhao didn't want to delay, and immediately ordered someone to prepare the carriage, this time there was no need to visit various countries, and there were many fewer things to prepare, only for Zhang Yong to wrap and eat.

"Go ahead, Zhang Banban."

Zhang Yong was not much stronger than Liu Jin, he just lay on the carriage and convulsed.

After the duty, go back to the house,

Yan Chengjin saw Zeng Jian, waiting in the main hall of the old courtyard, with infinite spring on his face.

Zeng Jian was overjoyed: "The little Jurchen chose the crown princess, and the virtuous nephew is kind to my Zengfu." ”

Yan Chengjin said: "Zeng's family is prosperous, and Zeng is an honest official, and he doesn't have much to do with the lower officials. ”

Zeng Jian nodded and said with a smile: "Three days later, Your Majesty will personally hold a ploughing, and you will fast for three days, and tell you first, if you can eat meat, you will eat more first, don't be hungry and thin." ”

Ploughing is an ancient rite, that is, the emperor personally went to the field to plough, praying for a bumper harvest and peace for the country and the people.

During the time of Taizu, a ritual system was formulated, and the ploughing ceremony was held in the middle of spring in February.

When it came to Chengzu, it was stipulated that in the first February of the new emperor's succession, he would personally perform the ploughing ceremony, and at other times, the beginning of spring would be performed by the minister.

Last year's harvest was not good, and in mid-March, Emperor Hongji decided to personally perform a ploughing ceremony, first, to pray for a good harvest this year, and secondly, to pray for a good omen for the prince's wedding.

The Cabinet attaches great importance to this and has developed a set of procedures for it itself.

It's really uncomfortable not to eat meat for three days.
