As soon as the court meeting began, the crown prince Zhu Hedu couldn't wait to submit to Emperor Deqing, saying that all the arrangements for the southern tour, such as river work, roads, dragon boats, imperial driving, etc., were now ready. And under his personal supervision, the silver used was nearly 80,000 taels less than expected, and the speed of progress was more than ten days ahead of the estimate. During this period, not only did he not work for the people and lose money, but took the opportunity to do a lot of things to benefit the people, which increased the morale of the people and the prestige of the court, and the people were even more praised.

After getting the news, Emperor Deqing was overjoyed, and praised Zhu Heyu's ability to do things, and did not mention all kinds of rewards.

And the clear stream in the middle of the court, and has always been the most supportive of the crown prince Zhu and Yu, taking advantage of this opportunity, it is a voice of praise for virtue, just like the arrangements of the southern tour, the reason why it is so smooth is all the work of the prince alone.

Among public opinion, the momentum of the crown prince Zhu and Yu in the court has also increased.

With his prestige, meritorious deeds and the support of Emperor Deqing, the prince's next road to power and participation in politics seems to be a smooth road.

However, the higher the hold, the heavier the fall.

Things are just getting started.

However, it is said that the Nadu Procuratorate, as the mouthpiece and eyes and ears of the imperial court, is in charge of supervision, impeachment and the power of construction, which is not only the main implementer of the supervision system of the Ming Dynasty, but also the link between the imperial court and the people.

Originally, as important as the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the major factions in the DPRK and China naturally would not let go of the opportunity to infiltrate, and they had always been the most mixed.

It's just that, with the arrangements of Emperor Deqing, the two cronies of Prince Zhu and Yu'

After Li Chengru and Lu Chunxiao respectively became the left and right inspectors of the Imperial Palace, the power of the Imperial Court gradually began to be controlled by the prince's party, and now it has become the base camp of the prince's party.

It is precisely because of this that in the past few days, the Metropolitan Procuratorate has caused countless troubles to the major factions in the DPRK and China, and the number of impeachments of Zhou Shangjing, Huang Yourong, Shen Changmao, and even Zhao Junchen has increased day by day.

And Lu Chunxiao, as one of the two chief officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, has made great contributions to this situation.

On this day, after the next dynasty, when Lu Chunxiao returned to the yamen of the Imperial Palace, his face was ruddy and he was in a good mood.

In fact, at today's court meeting, the voices in the temple that sang praises for the prince were brought up and arranged by him.

Thinking that as the crown prince was gradually valued by Emperor Deqing, the rise of the prince's party in the temple was just around the corner, and Lu Chunxiao even walked much brisker.

Beside Lu Chunxiao, Li Chengru's mood was similar.

While the two were talking and laughing, they came to Lu Chunxiao's office room together to discuss the next plan.

After the guest was seated, Li Chengru smiled first: "Lord Lu, now His Majesty has a clear mind, not only no longer suppressing the prince, but looking for an opportunity to increase the prestige and meritorious service for the prince. Lu Chunxiao also smiled and said: "That's right, today's shape is really a rare opportunity, but as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gradually gains real power in the future, and the confrontation with Zhou Shangjing and them, I am afraid that it will be inevitable, and I will wait as a close confidant of the prince, and I must prepare early." ”

Li Chengru snorted coldly and said, "Those corrupt officials and ministers in the court, we don't have more time to compete with them?" As the mouthpiece of the imperial court, the Metropolitan Procuratorate is now under our control, and with the support of His Majesty, it is already invincible. ”

Although Lu Chunxiao also felt reasonable, he was more stable after all, and said: "It's better to be cautious, let's not talk about Zhou Shangjing's old fox and cunning, even if it is Zhao Junchen, a little fox, we have never taken advantage of the confrontation, so we can't be taken lightly." ”

After a pause, Lu Chunxiao frowned again and said: "Also, this time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is preparing for His Majesty's southern tour, Zhou Shangjing, Huang Yourong, Shen Changmao, Lou Ran has nothing to make trouble from beginning to end, and when I wait for the prince to ask for credit, they have no objections, it is too smooth, but it makes me a little uneasy, and I always feel that they are planning something." Li Chengru said with a smile: "Brother Lu, you are too worried, Your Majesty attaches great importance to this southern tour, anyone can see it, where do Zhou Shangjing and them dare to make things difficult?" And the preparation for this southern tour, under the personal efforts of the prince, was indeed smooth, not only did not work for the people and lose money, but benefited the people and benefited the people, the real credit, where can they object? For some reason, after hearing Li Chengru say this, Lu Chunxiao felt a little uneasy in his heart, and always felt that something was wrong, and muttered softly: "I hope so." ”

However, as soon as the words fell, there was a knock on the door outside the room, quite urgent.

"Lord Lu is here? Can the nose adult be available? The lower officials have an urgent report. Lu Chunxiao was slightly stunned, and he already heard Xiao Sheng's voice outside the door.

Xiao Sheng, as the superintendent of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, is a close confidant of Lu Chunxiao, and naturally belongs to the prince's party.

"Come in."

With Lu Chunxiao's order, the door was slammed open by Xiao Sheng as soon as he "snapped", and then saw Xiao Sheng's face pale, and stumbled in front of Lu Chunxiao.

Seeing Xiao Sheng like this, Lu Chunxiao frowned and said, "What happened?" Makes you so flustered? Xiao Sheng didn't care about explaining politely, and he didn't even see Li Chengru on the side, he just handed a copy of the excerpt to Lu Chunxiao and said, "Lord Lu, you can take a look at this impeachment excerpt first, I just received it." ”

Lu Chunxiao saw that Xiao Sheng was so eager, and his face was also a little stricter, he took the fold, opened it, and it didn't take long for his face to gradually turn pale.

Li Chengru, who was on the side, couldn't help but wonder and asked, "What is the matter with Xian?" It actually made Lord Lu so out of shape? ”

Lu Chunxiao's eyes were a little distracted, as if he was thinking about something difficult, he didn't answer, but subconsciously handed the fold to Li Chengru.

Li Chengru opened the fold and saw that he was even more unbearable, his body trembled, and he almost fell.

This is an excerpt from the impeachment of Zhang Shunde, the prefect of Heze, Shandong, in order to prepare for Emperor Deqing's southern tour, saying that in order to prepare for Emperor Deqing's southern tour, Zhang Shunde has worked hard and lost money in the past two months, and has made a lot of efforts, just to build a temporary palace for Emperor Deqing, he forcibly expropriated more than 70 houses and displaced more than 400 people. In order to make up for the silver for the construction of the palace, the tax silver in Heze was more than doubled, so that Heze was full of complaints.

Early this day, the crown prince Zhu Heyu had just presented to Emperor Deqing, saying that the preparations for the southern tour were foolproof, and there was no effort to waste the people and money, and his prestige and prestige had also increased greatly, but as soon as the court meeting ended, this impeachment letter had arrived, wouldn't this be a slap in the face of Zhu Heyu?

But in fact, the crisis brought by this impeachment letter to the crown prince Zhu Heyi and even the prince's party is far more than that.

The most critical question is, after receiving this letter, should the Metropolitan Procuratorate present it to Emperor Deqing?
