Entering July, it has been an eventful year.

First of all, Princess Changyang died, and the entire capital was held for three days, and the three days were not over, followed by the assassination of the emperor.

This already made the emperor, who was already in grief, physically weak, and suffered such a serious injury, the prince would not go to the palace of King Qin almost all night.

During the day, he dealt with the mountains of government affairs, and at night he had to serve the emperor's decoction with his clothes, and in just a few days, the prince suffered a lot.

Fortunately, the emperor was in good health, although this time he was seriously injured, so that the emperor was lucky not to die, but it also hit him hard.

The emperor's health had deteriorated, and he felt that his spirit was getting worse and worse, and he had more and more Zen heart.

Therefore, the emperor is also gradually handing over the power in his hands for the crown prince to take over.

It was only then that the crown prince understood how tired it must be to be an emperor, just by approving the twists and turns of various provinces every day, he was already tired enough.

And soon the south is about to enter the flood, and the two river basins are flooding every year, and the silver used to repair the river embankment every year alone will make the treasury unable to make ends meet.

As soon as this season came, the household department and the Ministry of Industry were entangled, one side was desperately asking for silver, and the other side was not enough to raise money everywhere.

The daily pilgrimage meeting is almost spent in a quarrel.

The ministers appointed to repair water conservancy are replaced almost every year, and every year they are dismissed and punished, and it is difficult to deal with the floods in the two river basins.

The flooding of the Yellow River is a major dissolution to flood some farmland, resulting in the loss of harvest in large areas of farmland and starvation in the disaster areas.

The flooding of the Yangtze River has a greater impact, Suzhou and Hangzhou are both rich towns, and Yangzhou is the center of gravity of the world's money and grain.

In this way, the Yellow River is blocked, and the Yangtze River is to dredge the old river.

Fortunately, there was a capable official in the previous dynasty who used the large water method, using the flow speed of the Yellow River itself, to deliberately narrow the river.

As a result, the speed of the water has accelerated, washing away all the dust and sand at the bottom of the river, which has undoubtedly deepened the river and gradually calmed down the flooding of the Yellow River.

But the Yangtze River is not so simple.

Everyone knows that as long as the old river channel is dredged, the original canal will be waterway. If you dredge it well, there will be no flooding in the Yangtze River.

But this touches the interests of some big families, and even clans, and the old river is often rich in paddy fields and quite a lot of production.

Where are these big families willing to give in?

Without the support of these families, it would be difficult for the emperor to sit on the throne.

In this way, the prince who has just dealt with political affairs has a great headache.

Although he has the heart to isolate the old evils and try his best to offend some big families, as well as the interests of the clan, he must also dredge the Yangtze River waterway well, and stop treating the symptoms but not the root cause as in the past.

But he has just taken over government affairs, and his own confidence is not enough, if there is no strong support from some big families, I am afraid that the throne will not be stable in the future.

It gave him a lot of headaches.

This is not the most important thing, autumn will begin next month, and as soon as autumn begins, the northern ethnic groups will often invade the border and plunder the border towns.

The grasslands have a long and cold winter, and if there is not enough food reserves, even people and animals will starve to death in the winter.

In order to survive this harsh winter, they had to risk their lives to climb over the Great Wall and loot the border town of Daming before winter.

It's a dead knot.

As the future Son of Heaven, he must invade and plunder the northern borders in the northern provinces, renovate the Great Wall, consolidate the defense line, and enrich the troops, military supplies, and armaments.

However, these are all more expensive and food-intensive, several things are almost one ring after another, and if one is not handled well, the national strength of the Ming Dynasty will be hit hard.

Therefore, every Ming emperor has done his best since the day he succeeded to the throne, but I am afraid that this is not enough.

As soon as the prince took over the government affairs, he immediately felt a lot of pressure, and some of the ministers below were mostly redundant, and there were really few capable officials.

They have almost nothing to do except fight each other and tear each other down, and the daily recitals are not the same, and the excerpts of praise that have not changed for thousands of years are either insinuating to each other.

However, these twists and turns were the most numerous, but he had to watch them, which once made him extremely annoyed.

It was only then that he understood why the previous dynasty appointed eunuchs and handed over the power of approving red to a few eunuchs.

Although he has the heart to do this, his father has almost monopolized political affairs all his life, where does he dare to do this?

had no choice but to bite the bullet, and it was only then that he understood that his father, the emperor, was not only hard, but also not a human job.

But in less than half a month, he was so tired that he almost vomited blood.

He really couldn't imagine in his heart how his father had come over all these years, thinking that he would be the same as his father from now on.

Every day, these mountains of government affairs are piled up on the desk, busy all day long, and there is no life of their own at all, and it is difficult to be happy in my heart.

Being dizzy by these dizzy political affairs every day makes him unhappy every day, although his mood is very hidden, his face pretends to be nothing.

In order to establish an image of himself in front of his ministers as more capable and more diligent than his father.

But the price is too high.

Just three days later, when he approved these recitals, his sentences inevitably revealed some extreme weariness.

Originally, the crown prince handled government affairs during the day, and at night he had to serve the emperor's decoction to reveal some anger, which was inevitable.

But the prince's mood was seen by Yang Hai, the eunuch of Bingbi and the prince of Dongchang on the side.

After all, he grew up with her since he was a child, how could he not feel the prince in his every move, and he also knew this irritable emotion.

He also fully understands that the crown prince actually wants people to share some of his political affairs, but now the old emperor is still in power, and he is just acting as the government.

If he is allowed to hand over the right to approve the red to a few eunuchs from now on, it will be almost impossible.

This also establishes an image of lazy government for the ministers, so that even his crown prince's royal position will not be maintained.

In his father's place, he was very disgusted with letting the eunuch Bingbi approve the red on his behalf, which made the prince who had just taken over government affairs very unhappy and helpless.

Suddenly, he thought of a person, and quietly walked to his side while the prince was alone at night.

He retreated and bowed his head left and right and whispered in the prince's ear: "Your Highness, you have a treasure that is not used yet, do you know?" ”

The prince was stunned when he heard this, and asked, "Baby? What baby? ”

Yang Hai whispered to him even more: "Someone who can help you share some of the twists and turns!" ”

When the prince heard his words, he couldn't help but say: "This palace understands what you mean, thank you for your understanding, but I haven't succeeded to the throne yet, not to mention that my father is still on the throne, where do I dare to let you take over!" ”

He thought that Yang Hai couldn't wait to take over the power of Batch Red from him, and he was even more shocked when he thought of his next words.

"Your Royal Highness, your treasure is not in this palace, in the Qin Palace, she can completely replace the old slave, and there is no trace at all!"

He turned his head and looked at Yang Hai in a daze, and couldn't help but be angry: "How can you let a woman handle government affairs, and besides, where can she replace this palace?" ”

Yang Hai saw that the prince was angry and hurriedly knelt down, and said very sincerely: "Back then, Taizu didn't let the eunuchs interfere in political affairs, and besides, he only handed over some untight twists and turns to her, but he just wrote and knew!" ”

When the prince listened to his words, he was obviously moved, and indeed most of the folds almost only need to be written to know, and I have read them, and these almost occupy most of the folds.

But he thought of one thing, frowned, and said: "It's not impossible, it's just the handwriting of this palace, and the ministers all over the world know it, even if I have that heart, I don't have that guts!" ”

At this moment, Yang Hai had already taken out two pieces of handwriting from the clerical bag and respectfully placed them in front of his desk.

"Your Highness, please take a look, which one is written by you, and which one is Siyu Niangniang's handwriting?"

He took a closer look at these two handwritings, which were indeed two exercises that Siyu had given her to practice, but they didn't let her practice her own handwriting.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but scolded in annoyance: "Duh, Yang Hai, your courage is too big, this is your private opinion, or is she specifically looking for you to ask for it!" ”

Yang Hai was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him and said, "Your Highness, this is completely a whim of the slave, and it has nothing to do with Siyu Niangniang!" ”

Yang Hai seemed to be frightened and panicked on the surface, but in fact, he was already sure in his heart that the prince would not be embarrassed.

And with his understanding of the prince, he is sure that the prince will definitely let Siyu share some of his twists and turns.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, and once it begins, it is easy to say.

This Siyu is not only the treasure of the prince, but also the treasure of their eunuch party, and having this person is the key to the revival of their eunuch power.

So, he took the risk of taking all the responsibility on himself and exonerated Siyu.

Sure enough, the prince hesitated.

I saw him holding these two study sheets, carefully reading them over and over again, looking back and forth, but I was afraid that even he himself could not tell which one was written by himself and which one was written by Siyu?

He carefully took it under the lamp and read it word by word, and then he found that Siyu's words were still slightly different from his own.

Her self is somewhat soft, and her words are still somewhat hard, so if you don't look at it so carefully, I'm afraid it's hard for you to distinguish it.

Now he is completely relieved, if he lets Siyu practice diligently, and just practice a few words, he is afraid that he will be able to share most of the political affairs for himself in a few days.

Suddenly, on a whim, he beckoned to Yang Hai and asked him to come closer, what a shrewd person Yang Hai was, and immediately attached his ears to him.

I only heard the prince lower his voice, a little excited, and told him in a trembling voice: "Otherwise, if you are like this, you will go out of the palace now and bring more than a dozen books, and quietly hand them over to Siyu, don't let people see it, you wait for her to finish her approval, and then take it back for the palace to see!" ”

Yang Hai listened to his words and was ecstatic in his heart, thinking that this thing must have been done, nodded again and again, selected more than a dozen extremely unimportant ones, and was about to leave but was stopped by the prince and said: "You must teach her how to approve!" ”
