Chapter 11: Jane in the Emperor's Heart

Six carriages, lined up in a straight line, surrounded by some guards on horseback, went straight to the Xishan Coal Mine.

Just kidding, if a missile hits these six troikas, the world will be in chaos.

Because the passengers above are the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, the elders, the Shangshu and the eunuchs of the celebrant who hold the seal.

This is the center of the Ming Dynasty.

Xiao Jing accompanied Emperor Hongzhi to sit in the third carriage, and Emperor Hongzhi was very touched by what he saw and heard outside the Guangning Gate just now, so after encouraging the middle-aged man to work hard with a red face, he took the ministers into the carriage very silently and went to the Xishan Coal Mine.

The carriage had been traveling for more than ten minutes, and Emperor Hongzhi in the carriage had been silent and had been thinking.

Thinking about it, he raised his head, looked at Xiao Jing, who was sitting under him, and asked:

"Xiao Jing, did you say I did something wrong?"

"Your Majesty, do you want to hear the truth or lie? The truth is not good, but the lie is good. ”

Xiao Jing is a smart person, in his early years, he followed Huai En, one of the best eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty, to mingle in the court under the terrifying shadow of Wan Guifei, and he had already exercised his political wisdom.

Emperor Hongji's question, he did not answer directly, but he had already given his answer.

"I did something wrong."

Emperor Hongzhi sighed with emotion, and felt some remorse in his heart.

He rarely goes out of the palace, so he doesn't know what Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling's bastards are doing outside.

The imperial historians impeached Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling, he was in line with the principle that hearing is false, coupled with the intentional blinding of some people, and Empress Zhang's pillow wind, he believed in his brother-in-law more.

Therefore, he always thought that the two brothers Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling might have done some bad things, but it didn't matter and the problem was not big, so he always asked for these two brothers.

But today, seeing is believing, and seeing with his own eyes the people being forced into exile and having no fixed place to live by Zhang Heling, he feels that he may really be wrong.

Then, the middle-aged man, because of Xishan Coal Industry, was still shouting His Majesty Shengming, which made him feel deeply ashamed.

Because he knows very well that he himself is the main culprit of the displacement of the people!

But in the end, the people are still grateful to him! Shout out to Your Majesty.

This is how he is not ashamed.

He was thinking, if there was no Li Zhaotong's appearance, without Li Zhaotong's proposal to create the Xishan Coal Industry, without Li Zhaotong's lavish spending, which would be very good for the displaced people, perhaps, in the end, these people would have been forced to rebel!

Zhu Youzhu knew very well that his ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang was left without food by the Yuan Dynasty and couldn't survive, and finally started a bowl and was forced to rebel and start a family, step by step, to create this majestic Ming!

Therefore, Mingjun Zhu Youzhu did not dare to underestimate any homeless person, so merciful that he even spared his mother-killing enemy, Wan Guifei's family, and still approved of the extremely violent and bloody armor protection system that implemented the joint sitting system!

So, now that I think about it, instead of firmly implementing a violent and bloody armor protection system, it is better to favor whom to believe, reduce the oppression and poison of traitors and villains to the people, so that the people can live and not go into exile?

That's what he's thinking about along the way.

"Xiao Jing, then you say, how should I treat Shou Ning Hou and Jian Changbo?"

This problem, Emperor Hongzhi has not thought clearly, because Shouning Hou and Jian Changbo are the younger brothers of his favorite queen, if they act according to the law, it must be the unstability of the harem, but if they are not dealt with, then they will definitely continue to poison the people and affect the stability of the Ming Dynasty.

So, he was very embarrassed.

Xiao Jing was his confidant, so he wanted to hear Xiao Jing's opinion.

"Your Majesty, according to what the slave maid sees, the best way to treat Shouning Hou and Jianchangbo is: don't deal with it."

"Don't deal with it?!"

Emperor Hongzhi's brows tightened, and he was not very satisfied with Xiao Jing's answer.

Xiao Jing also knew that the emperor would be dissatisfied, so he added:

"Your Majesty, if you deal with Shou Ning Hou and Jian Changbo, then the queen mother, you will not be able to explain it!

Slaves and maids are brave, and what Shou Ning Hou and Jian Changbo do today, you also have a certain responsibility.

Therefore, even if you don't look at the face of the queen's mother, for your majesty, it will not be easy to deal with Shou Ning Hou and Jian Changbo!

However, the slave suggested that you still have to beat Shou Ning Hou and Jian Chang Bo, let them restrain a little, and stop doing nonsense and harming the people. ”

Xiao Jing's words were very straightforward and bold, which made Emperor Hongzhi, who once again remembered the middle-aged man shouting His Majesty Shengming, blushed, but Emperor Hongzhi was a benevolent monarch after all, he did not blame Xiao Jing, but nodded and adopted Xiao Jing's opinion:

I don't deal with it, but I want to knock it!

He decided to go back and beat Shou Ninghou and Jian Changbo.

"Xiao Jing, you remember, go back and remind me that I want to summon Shouning Hou and Jian Changbo, and take back the land belonging to Miyun County in the hands of Shouning Hou."

"Your Majesty, this ......"

Xiao Jing said bitterly:

Didn't you nod your head and say yes not to deal with it? Why do you want to recover the land belonging to Miyun County in the hands of Shouning Hou!

I'm so embarrassed that you're doing that! After all, it was me who came up with the idea, and you still want me to remind you, if this spreads, the ghost knows how the queen, Shouning Hou, and Jianchangbo will hate me!

"This must be done, it was not only me and you who saw that scene just now, Liu Jian and they were also present, and they all saw me blushing.

If I don't deal with it, then Liu Jian and they will definitely look down on me, which will make me lose the majesty of the royal family!

As for the Queen, I will explain that I believe that the Queen is a reasonable, virtuous and virtuous person. ”

Emperor Hongzhi is not a puppet at the mercy of others, he adopted Xiao Jing's opinion, this does not mean that he does not have his own ideas, in his mind, taking back the land belonging to Miyun County in Zhang Heling's hands is the best beating for Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling, and at the same time can save a little face for himself.

"Oh well! Your Majesty, the slave and maid remembered. ”

The emperor is his true master, Xiao Jing sees this very clearly, so he knows that he wants to offend people, but if the emperor wants to do it himself, he must implement it truthfully and not bargain.

"By the way, Xiao Jing, what do you think of Li Zhaotong? Let's be honest. ”

After solving the matter of Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling, Emperor Hongzhi's mood relaxed.

During this time, he heard a lot of news about Li Zhaotong, and at first he had an opinion on Li Zhaotong, after all, Li Zhaotong spent a lot of money, but after he figured it out, he had no opinion on Li Zhaotong, but there was still a trace of appreciation and liking.

After all, Li Zhaotong helped him resettle more than 3,000 displaced people, and judging from the current situation, there will be more in the future!

Coupled with the previous encounter with a blind child and a middle-aged man, Emperor Hongzhi knew that Li Zhaotong had made a lot of contributions this time, so Emperor Hongzhi appreciated and loved Li Zhaotong more and more.

He knew that Li Zhaotong and Xiao Jing had a bit of a conflict, so in order to protect Li Zhaotong, he decided to relieve Xiao Jing and ask Xiao Jing not to take the last incident to heart.

After all, Xiao Jing is the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, even if Li Zhaotong and his father are the elder Li Dongyang, and his mother is the sister of Zhu Fu, the prince of Chengguo, Xiao Jing can still do it if he wants to make a little move and embarrass Li Zhaotong.

This is not good for Xishan Coal's business.

"Your Majesty, the slave's true opinion of Li Zhaotong is: This is a deviant young man, he is very smart, but the slave maid thinks that he is too bold, perhaps, he will become a lonely minister like the prince in the future, or even worse."

The prince in Xiao Jing's mouth is Wang Shu, who has been teaching and educating people in his hometown for six years, this big man is the existence of the sky and the earth, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, plus the emperor, have been offended by him!

In the end, he was framed and stepped down by the former cabinet old Qiu Jun and Tai Hospital.

Qiu Jun is a good official, but unfortunately he is small-minded, Wang Shu offended him, so he listened to the slander of the villain Liu Wentai and united to frame Wang Shu and step down.

Of course, in the end, Qiu Jun didn't end well, because everyone knew that Wang Shu, who was afraid of the sky and the air, was a good official.

After all, one of the "two capitals and twelve ministries, only one Wang Shu" in the Chenghua period, and now one of the "three gentlemen of Hongzhi" in the Hongzhi period, is not sung in the drama, it is passed on by the people and hundreds of officials, you framed him and stepped down, you are a villain, so Qiu Jun was scolded to death three years ago.

Although Emperor Hongzhi didn't like Wang Shu, he also used the excuse of "framing the case" to drive away Wang Shu who was scolding the sky and the earth on the grounds of "inadvertently slandering the first emperor", but he knew very well that Wang Shu was a good official, Xiao Jing compared Li Zhaotong with him, and had a high evaluation, which shows that Xiao Jing did not have the same knowledge as Li Zhaotong.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have rated it so highly.

So, he was relieved.

The convoy headed straight for the Xishan Coal Mine.
