Zhu Houzhao originally wanted Jinyiwei and Dongchang to dispatch, and more or less protected his old Xie and his wife halfway.

After all, it's not like he has gone far away, only bringing one internal servant and two guards, no matter how you look at it, it makes people feel a little unsafe.

didn't think about it, not long after I came out, Jinyiwei and Dongchang came back in disgrace.

Mu Bin and Xiao Jing successively went to the Nuan Pavilion to find Zhu Houzhao, and the problem they said was the same, and the matter of them quietly following Emperor Hongzhi was discovered.

This question not only made Zhu Houzhao extremely distressed, but also made Mu Bin and Xiao Jing extremely helpless.

It stands to reason that Emperor Hongzhi is the son of heaven in the prosperous world, and he can't ride and shoot, let alone understand the kind of tracking and stalking.

Jin Yiwei and Dongchang, if they send out any person, they will never be discovered.

It's only been a long time, but it's only been less than half an hour, how can this be discovered?

Zhu Houzhao was puzzled, did his father have an unknown ability after a serious illness?

Just when Zhu Houzhao was suspicious, Mu Bin opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, the emperor also came back with a will, and the emperor said that he is no longer a king, and His Majesty is in charge of all matters in the court, and if there is something that he can't decide to discuss with the Marquis of Yunzhong, there is no need to bother him." ”

Mu Bin's voice fell, and Xiao Jing on the side also followed, saying, "Your Majesty, the emperor also let the slave and maid send the news back." ”

After thinking about it, Zhu Houzhao still couldn't figure it out about this problem.

Since he couldn't figure it out, he didn't bother thinking about it, waved his hand, and said, "You all go down and find Xie Wu." ”

As an auxiliary general, Xie Zhi has too many things to be busy with, in addition to some necessary things in the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Five Armies, he also has to ask about some things in the court.

One person wears many hats, and he is about to be tired, but Zhu Houzhao still has to announce him into the palace from time to time.

The palace of the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Five Armies was so far away from the palace that every time he went in and out, he was almost exhausted to death.

As soon as Xie Zhi entered the warm pavilion, his breath was not even, and he was about to salute, when he heard Zhu Houzhao complain, and said: "Every time you enter the palace, you wait left and right, but you can't wait for you." ”

He is not to blame for this, he has received the order, and he has come as fast as possible.

Xie Zhi was about to argue, but Zhu Houzhao immediately waved his hand and said, "Don't say much, I know what you have to say." ”

It's really not good if it's too familiar, and it's guessed before you open your mouth, so you won't even have some private secrets in the future.

"You are now an auxiliary general, I have something to discuss with you at any time, every time I board such an old half a day to see you, this is too delayed, in this way, another place in the palace city will be set up, and the auxiliary general will be established, and it will be convenient for me to find you again in the future."

Just kidding, the Auxiliary Minister only set him up, and there were already many people who were dissatisfied.

If a new place is created to set up an auxiliary general's office, those jealous ministers may not know what to think.

Zhu Houzhao said his thoughts, Xie Zhi immediately waved his hand and refused, and said: "Your Majesty, you can't have fun, when the New Five Army Metropolitan Procuratorate was built, those ministers refused because there was no suitable place to place the Metropolitan Procuratorate in the palace, and now Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, and he will set up a new auxiliary general's office, and there will be no fewer courtiers who oppose it, and it will be very annoying to deal with these people when the time comes." ”

When Zhu Houzhao confronted these people, he was not less troubled by these people.

The character who is not afraid of the ground is not afraid of the sky, and when he mentions this matter, he is also retreating.

Immediately, he waved his hand and said: "Forget it, then arrange the five military capital procuratorates, and you don't have to go to the military capital mountain again, okay, it's decided." ”

Zhu Houzhao and his obviously unquestionable words, Xie Zhi did not say much.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Five Armies is now slowly accepted by the subjects, and there are checks and balances between the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Five Armed Forces and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and some imperial historians do not dare to bite people indiscriminately to complain, and the officialdom atmosphere has also improved a lot.

The most important thing is that because of the existence of the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Five Armies, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers has also become much stronger, and the military tun has been occupied less, and the ones that were previously occupied have slowly begun to return to the cage.

Everything is going well.

As far as the current Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Five Armies is concerned, no matter who it is, it is impossible to say that it has been abolished.

Since it is recognized as the official office of the imperial court, it cannot be placed in the military capital mountain, which is 108,000 miles away from the official office of the imperial court.

Therefore, no one can find a reason to refuse the matter of relocating the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Five Armies.

That being the case, Xie Zhi did not refuse.

In fact, Xie Zhi had long wanted to move the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Five Armies back to the city.

It is also the official office of the imperial court, and it was put on the mountain of the military capital, as if it was raised by the stepmother.

It's just that some time ago, there were too many things, and Emperor Hongzhi was also a frugal person, Xie Zhi was really embarrassed to open this mouth in front of Emperor Hongzhi.

Since it is Zhu Houzhao who is in charge now, and Zhu Houzhao took the initiative to agree.

Xie Zhi didn't say anything, and then replied, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

In response to this matter, Zhu Houzhao patted his head and said, "By the way, I came to you because I had something to tell you, and I almost forgot about this matter." ”

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Houzhao said again: "I sent out Dongchang and Jinyiwei to protect my father, but I was discovered by my father?" ”

"What?" Xie Zhi exclaimed.

Zhu Houzhao knew that you would have such an expression, and said, "You don't think it's possible, right?" Jinyiwei and Dongchang are the worst dispatched, and they will never be discovered by their father, but now they are discovered by their father, which is too suspicious, right? ”

After talking to himself for a long time, he said, "Ah, they can't do it on purpose, right?" ”

Zhu Houzhao didn't think that the team cultivated by Emperor Hongzhi would be able to obey him with a word of succession.

It would be naïve to think so.

In the face of power, how can there be father-son love.

Hearing Zhu Houzhao's words, Xie Zhi looked at a foolish expression.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Hou came up with a plan according to this, and said: "I can't always let my father lead me by the nose, I want to restore the West Factory and balance the East Factory and Jinyiwei." ”

muttered for a long time, and then muttered to himself, saying: "The West Factory is not good, Wang Zhi can use the West Factory to frame Zhongliang, and his father has also been harmed by the West Factory, or he will make the Inner Factory, it is the same name, anyway, it is just a name, in short, it is to lead the Jinyi Weidong Factory, and I have to know everything about their affairs." ”

After the fold, I am looking for this guy, but I have just taken the position, and I am going to engage in the west factory and the inner factory.

It's just just a Dongchang and Jinyiwei, which made people panic, and now if these two things are brought out, can that person still live?

Xie Zhi doesn't do these things.

Maybe one day in the future, in order to check and balance a certain aspect, there will really be an inner factory and a western factory, but it must not be now.

Xie Zhi smiled speechlessly and said: "Your Majesty, if you make an internal factory to balance Jinyiwei and Dongchang, a discerning person can see at a glance that you don't trust Jinyiwei and Dongchang, Dongchang and Jinyiwei are both trained by the emperor, if you don't believe them, you don't believe in the emperor." ”

Zhu Houzhao replied with a bit of uprightness: "I don't believe in my father, he must be looking for someone to watch the palace." ”

This bear child, in order to escape the shackles of his parents, actually joked about the government.

Xie Zhi was helpless, glanced at Zhu Houzhao and said: "Your Majesty, if you don't trust Jinyiwei and Dongchang, you can send someone in, slowly hand over the affairs of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and set up an inner factory at once, not to mention that the emperor will be unhappy, even those courtiers will unite to oppose it." ”

Those ministers all developed the temperament to speak out in front of Emperor Hongzhi, and if Zhu Houzhao really set up an internal factory, someone would definitely refute it at all costs.

After all, just a Dongchang and Jinyiwei made them dare not breathe when they returned home.

If there is one more inner factory, will they still be allowed to live?

The establishment of an internal factory is just a matter of Zhu Houzhao's whim.

was refuted by Xie Zhi, Zhu Houzhao no longer insisted, waved his hand, and said a little impatiently: "Forget it, forget it, I'm just talking, I came to you to say that my father went to the northwest, and I felt that they were likely to go to the clouds, after all, my father had only been to the clouds these days." ”

Emperor Hongzhi took Empress Zhang and just said that he wanted to pay a private visit to Weifu, and Xie Zhi thought of it a little.

For all the developments in the clouds, Emperor Hongzhi was quite satisfied.

Since it is a place that he is satisfied with, he has to bring his wife to take a look.

Xie Zhi was not too surprised, and said lightly: "In this way, the minister wrote a letter to Wang Shouren, and sent a fast horse to the emperor to send it to the clouds first, so that Wang Shouren could prepare to take over. ”

In the fifteen years of Emperor Hongzhi's reign, although there were mistakes, mistakes, and loyalty, he was framed, but on the whole, it was still good, and a Hongzhi Zhongxing basically deserved it.

Now that you have abdicated and want to go out to play, you naturally have to make sure that you have a good time.

For Emperor Hongzhi, Zhu Houzhao just didn't want to be controlled, and filial piety was undeniable.

After thanking him for this suggestion, Zhu Houzhao immediately agreed and said: "Okay, then let's do it, let Wang Shouren entertain him well." ”

Xie Zhi didn't delay, and directly wrote a letter to Wang Shouren in the warm pavilion.

After the letter was written, Xie Zhi took it in his hand and said, "After the minister leaves the palace, he will send someone out." ”

Now the caravan in Xie Zhi's hands is not slower than the official channel, and it may be faster.

Therefore, it is also more appropriate to send the message by caravan.

After deciding on this matter, Zhu Houzhao said again: "You are right, I want to arrange for Zhang Yong to enter the East Factory, and gradually take over the affairs of the East Factory from Xiao Jing, but Jin Yiwei will not find a suitable candidate for a while." ”

Zhu Houzhao is surrounded by eunuchs on weekdays, and it is not easy to find a suitable person to fill the brocade guard?

Jinyiwei and Dongchang are the emperor's eyes and ears, how to fill them, the emperor himself has the final say, and others don't have to say more about it.

On top of this matter, Xie Zhi did not make any suggestions, and said: "Your Majesty is surrounded by talents, so take your time." ”

Zhu Houzhao roared anxiously just now, as if he was going to take over Jinyiwei and Dongchang immediately.

Now I'm not in a hurry, it's a lot more stable, Jin Yiwei doesn't have a suitable candidate for a while, and I'm not so anxious to fill in.

In fact, Emperor Hongzhi found that Jinyiwei and Dongchang were following, not because he had any connection with them.

When Emperor Hongzhi was officially in the prime of life, if he cared about the power in his hands, he would not have passed on the throne to Zhu Houzhao so early.

It is not only a willing succession, but also how to contact the central departments of the imperial court such as Jinyiwei and Dongchang.

It's just that he guessed that Zhu Houzhao would definitely send someone to follow him, so he waited in advance.

Wait until a while, deliberately beckoning into the air.

The people who followed thought that Emperor Hongzhi was calling them, and they all showed up.

Isn't this all clear?

The people of Dongchang and Jinyiwei still don't know how they were discovered.

They are all veterans of stalking, experienced, but this has never happened.

On the side of Emperor Hongzhi, Wang Shouren had just appeared in the clouds when they and his party appeared.

Wang Shouren knew that Emperor Hongzhi came out for whatever purpose, since he was a private visit, he didn't want to be discovered, so he couldn't come forward and show up directly.

Wang Shouren arranged for several servants, changed into the clothes of ordinary people, and followed Emperor Hongzhi all the way.

Although there are more jobs that can be done in the clouds now, as long as you are willing to do it, you can earn silver.

Relatively speaking, law and order are much better.

Even if Emperor Hongzhi went in and out of the clouds by himself, there would be no big problem.

But with the individual, it can be regarded as an extra layer of insurance, which is always beneficial.

When Emperor Hongzhi arrived in the clouds, he first took Empress Zhang to eat the most famous tofu.

Although tofu is also common in Beijing, and they can eat it on weekdays, Xuezhuang's tofu has a unique flavor.

At the beginning, when Xie Zhi took him to eat, Emperor Hongzhi did not show much enthusiasm.

I just don't want one of his hobbies to become a waste of money.

If it was just for his hobby, he sent the tofu in the clouds to Jingshi, wouldn't it be the same as Yang Guifei riding a red dust concubine?

"This tofu is really better than that in Beijing, Xie Zhi said that the kid said that it is because of the special water source of Xuezhuang."

Empress Zhang took a sip of it dignified and elegant, and then said happily: "Not to mention, it's really much better." ”

Emperor Hongzhi saw that Empress Zhang was eating happily, and he was quite happy, and said: "Eat first, after eating, let's go around first, and then let's try the fried cake here, this thing is really good." ”

Saying that, Emperor Hongzhi sighed again: "Xie Zhi, that kid chose a place at random, how can this be delicious everywhere." ”

Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Zhang are really like ordinary couples all the way, enjoying the scenery and playing, just like a fairy couple.

For the people to evaluate the court and the affairs of the government, they don't pay attention to listening.

The prosperity in the clouds was even greater than before, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and caravans walked in groups on the wide concrete roads.

He has been diligent for fifteen years, which is not enough to thank for the results of two or three years.

He doesn't have anything to worry about, what Xie Zhi is doing now, maybe there will be some flaws, maybe some people will be dissatisfied, but he knows that this road is right, and in another fifteen years, the entire Ming Dynasty will have earth-shaking changes.

On this side, the people sent by Wang Shouren followed Emperor Hongzhi with peace of mind, and on the other hand, they reported the situation to Xie Zhi.

Xie Zhi and Zhu Houzhao were still very worried about the situation of Emperor Hongzhi, and with Wang Shouren's letter, they could rest assured.

"Father is really, he really went to play when he said he was playing, and he didn't say that he would bring a few more people." Zhu Houzhao complained.

Although Zhu Houzhao was reluctant to ascend to the throne so early at first, after a period of tempering, he gradually got used to it.

Xie Zhi didn't reply, he now understands who Zhu Houzhao's character is inherited.

After receiving the news that Emperor Hongzhi was safe, Zhu Houzhao was also relieved, and said: "If my father is fine, I will also be relieved." ”

Saying that, Zhu Houzhao took a sip of tea and said, "The autumn festival should be almost in the next month, right?" ”

For the things of Qiuqiu, Xie Zhi has always been quite looking forward to it.

Now some of the shortcomings in the guard have been solved, and only some problems in the Wenchen remain.

The imperial power is supreme, but in fact, the imperial power is also controlled by the literati.

These people are full of protégés, and if you offend them, you can spread them everywhere and make you infamous.

And these people have a history in their hands, and with a casual stroke of the pen, they can make you stink for 10,000 years.

Therefore, all the holy monarchs and lords must be heavy ministers.

As for whether this is the case, or whether it is just a deliberate gold paste by the literati, only the parties themselves know.

There's really no way to get to the bottom of that.

Regarding Zhu Houzhao's question, Xie Zhi nodded and replied: "Yes, the officials have begun to prepare for it." ”

Then, Zhu Houzhao asked again: "Can the scholars of the Two Wolf Mountain Academy win this autumn?" ”

It's a very advanced question, it's hard to answer, anything is possible.

Xie Zhi replied vaguely: "It should be possible, it's just..."

Zhu Houzhao didn't listen to Xie Zhi's second half of the sentence at all, and said: "Autumn is only the first step, as long as you can be in half of the spring season, you can use it to fill the various government offices, these people gradually replace those old ministers, and when I do something more, I don't need to be tied." ”

This idea is not only existed by Zhu Houzhao, but also by Emperor Hongzhi.

Some stubborn ministers simply do not accept some changes in the DPRK and the central government.

Although the imperial court is now rich, in their opinion, poverty is tempering, and if they are rich, they will inevitably cultivate inertia.

It is not a good thing for either the imperial court or ordinary people.

In fact, as everyone knows, when you stay poor, others will already be rich.

When others are rich, they still want to be rich, and the total resources are just like that, and they will definitely grab your head in the end.

You've only been using poverty to temper yourself for many years, you haven't accumulated anything, you want to fight with people, and you don't even have a guy to take advantage of.

The end result will be that what you have will be robbed of you.

Of course, there is no need for Xie Zhi to argue with those self-contained old ministers about these questions.

They don't want to make progress, so they just cut it, so why waste unnecessary words with them.

Regarding Zhu Houzhao's question, Xie Zhi could only echo casually: "It should be okay, Cheng Minzheng is very confident." ”

In the palace examination later, Zhu Houzhao may be able to promote the candidate he wants.

But in the autumn and spring, not to mention Zhu Houzhao, even the examiner, it is difficult to arrange his own candidates for high school.
