As we all know, in the harem of the Hongzhi Dynasty, the Empress Dowager Zhou is quite dislike her granddaughter-in-law Empress Zhang, except for the necessary provinces and festivals, she almost doesn't even bother to look at it.

Because the queen dominates the harem, after the death of King Wei, there is only one seedling in the East Palace, and there is a saying that "the queen mother raises a 'little imperial brother' in case of emergency".

Later, as these royal brothers grew up and became vassals, this statement was not mentioned much.

Now that there are people who dare to write and choose the incense of the Taimiao, naturally someone will pick up the original statement.

The first emperor was only not rich in heirs, but now here, there are no heirs!

It's just that now, among the four kings of Ru, Jing, Rong, and Shen:

King Shen has been dead for many years.

Thou hast no children to this day—this one is twenty-seven years old and has no children, and he is even more anxious than he is today.

King Jing has a son, but this only bone and blood is also weak and sickly.

And King Rong now has two sons and five sons!

Since it sounds good to bring an heir to the emperor, when there is an heir, and then "send back the feudal country", then find a family with a prosperous heir.

No, it shows King Rong.

Therefore, some people in the court inevitably muttered, I don't know if the wind blowing out of the little emperor's brother in the past is the handiwork of King Rong.

If you want to say that King Rong, he has been applied by the emperor for the past two years, but he is still a little more honest, but when he didn't go out of Beijing to become a vassal, he didn't stop for a while.

Seeking to choose a good Yue family, asking for rice, asking for salt, asking for grassland, and asking for the eldest son - although it didn't work out, I never gave up, and I was very happy.

Therefore, if you want to say that there is a plan of King Rong in this matter, there are many people who believe it, especially King Rong still has some friendship with these princesses of the clan in Beijing.

For example, the eldest princess Renhe and the eldest princess Yongkang have all spoken for King Rong.

It's just that these two eldest princesses are not close to the emperor, but what about the celebrities around the emperor......

"Of course, he is a 'pro' king, but in the end there is a pro-'virtuous'."

On the Taiye Pool in the West Garden, the lake breeze gusted, the silk and bamboo were lightly raised, Brother Shou leaned comfortably on the couch, half-squinted his eyes, his hands were drawn in the air, and he made a gesture of stroking the piano with the beat.

Zang Xian served on the side, but he was not talking about music theory, but about the most important state affairs in the eyes of the current ministers.

Brother Shou never paused in his hand, but he smiled and ridiculed in his mouth: "Xian Aiqing said Xian, haha, haha." ”

Zang Xian had a smile on his face, but said, "What does the minister know, it's just that he heard the adults say this." The ministers only take advantage of their names, and the adults are the real virtuous ministers of the country. ”

Brother Shou snorted lightly, noncommittal, and only called Zang Xian to say: "Liangzhi listened to something again, just say it." ”

"It's all old news." Zang Xian still had that light smile on his face, and his voice was soft, but he said, "The year before last, Prince Rong became a vassal, and when he was on the way, he tied up officials and needed to ask for money, carry private salt, and frustrate merchants, and was impeached by the imperial history and disturbed the people.

"In the end, I found out that the prince lived in a deep house and could not be known, but the long history was unscrupulous, and he was tired of the king, and at the end the emperor decreed that he applied for the prince Rong and issued a long history."

"Last year, Prince Rong begged for 1,595 acres of grainless fields in the counties of Guangchang Dechen Prefecture, and the emperor was sympathetic to the people.

"Before March, it was Shangguan Chong, the governor of Xuzhou, who charged the servants to the death of innocent people in order to supply the country of King Rong, and inspected the imperial history to arrest and question, Shangguan Chong ransomed the people for the people, and ordered the army to garrison Yunnan Lancangwei."

He whispered about the so-called "old news", but it was really not too old.

Although the people who were sentenced were all others, the cause was still King Rong's Mansion, so King Rong could not be called a "virtuous" word anyway.

Brother Shou sneered, only slanted to look at Zang Xian, and did not speak.

Zang Xian's smile did not decrease, and he turned to say softly: "Outside again, I talked about King Yi and King Heng. ”

There are a total of fourteen sons in Xianmiao, and only half of them are still alive today.

In addition to a few small ones such as King Ru, there are also King Xing, King Heng, King Yi, and King Shou.

King Shou is also childless so far.

Not to mention King Yiwang Heng, Brother Shou turned his head to look at Zang Xian, and said: "In November last year, the chief Shangshu Hongzhong also reported that King Xing used Huguang to beg for thieves, and issued platinum thousand taels to help the army's salary, and the imperial court also sent a seal to praise him. King Xing is so light on wealth and righteousness, he can be called a virtuous king. ”

Zang Xian was slightly stiff, but he still maintained a good smile, and he should praise it in his mouth: "Lord Xing understands righteousness!" ”

said with some regret: "It's a pity that the eldest son of Xingfu died early, and the only little son is four years old." ”

Brother Shou rolled his eyes, "King Yi has two sons and one son." ”

In fact, King Heng has more sons, and his reputation is okay.

But in the previous matter of Dengzhou sea trade, although the Dewang Mansion was the first to come out, in fact, one of the Shandong Sects was involved.

King Heng is naturally out.

Zang Xian heard the mention of King Yi of Jianchang Mansion in Jiangxi Province, the smile on his face deepened a little, and he also praised: "I heard that King Yi is very frugal, it is a scarf to Huanzhi again, a vegetarian food a day, love the people and heavy soldiers, and King Shixian." ”

Sure enough, the little emperor who likes luxury sex immediately lowered his face, hummed lightly, and only said, "King Quxian is also." ”

Zang Xian didn't say anything else, but just said: "Jiangxi treasure Tianhua, outstanding people, today the science and technology exploration flower Zhang Wei is not from Jiangxi." ”

Brother Shou raised his smile again and said, "Not bad." Zhang Wei's articles and calligraphy are all first-class. ”

Speaking of Jiangxi, I want to mention the emperor's favorite Daomen Longhu Mountain.

Zang Xian was also a good mouthful, so that the emperor smiled, and Fang intentionally or unintentionally mentioned that there is another virtuous king Ning Wang in Jiangxi.

Don't look at it not as a branch of Xianmiao, but it's just to introduce heirs, it doesn't matter whether you are close or not, what matters is "virtuous".

You see, this King Ning's filial piety and etiquette and other virtues can be recorded in the temple of filial piety - although the emperor may not be.

But thou hast not given books, and musicians, and guards to him......

Brother Shou smiled, squinting his eyes and only looking at the water, still beating the beat in his hand, I don't know if he was listening to the song or listening to Zang Xian.

At the end of the song over there, the aftermath was lingering, Brother Shou suddenly slapped his hands heavily, shouted "good", and then shouted "reward" from the outside, only to hear the little waiter outside the pavilion running away all the way.

And Liu Zhong turned in to change a box of dim sum, and poured the upper half of the fruit slow into the small hand.

Brother Shou's attention seemed to be only on a few swans swimming gracefully on the water over there, and he said indifferently: "Ask Shen Rui to bring in more red cloves over there, isn't he thinking about what kind of fruit 'preservation'?" ”

Liu Zhong's hand paused slightly, and then responded.

It seems that because of the mention of Shen Rui, Brother Shou complained more, and said that there were few glass lanterns in Yanshenzhen, and that the peonies in Caozhou this year were not as good as they were in the past, and that they heard that abalone and sea cucumbers could be grown in three years, and Dengzhou had been raised for three years, so why didn't they come in......

He asked, and Liu Zhong responded.

Zang Xian listened with a smile as if it was none of his business, but he had already written them down one by one in his heart.

When Brother Shou turned around, he pointed to the swans playing on the lake and said to Zang Xian: "Liangzhi, wouldn't it be a scene to have a song "Haiqing Takes the Swan"?" ”

Zang Xianfang retracted his thoughts, got up and said with a smile: "Xiaochen, I'm going to get the pipa, ......" and exited the pavilion as he spoke.

Brother Shou looked at the red fufu juice in the white porcelain cup, and after hearing the sonorous sound of the pipa over there for a while, Fang hummed and laughed, drank it all, and turned to lie down with his eyes closed.

Shandong Jinan Mansion, Shen Mansion

Like Dengzhou, the official residence in Jinan Mansion could not accommodate many officials' families, so most officials would buy another private house in the city.

Shen Li's house is not far from the political envoy, and the specifications for participating in politics, now that he wants to go to Huguang, he just leaves the house to Shen Rui, and there is almost no need to move things.

Shen Rui received the letter and newspaper when he received the sea ship to dock for supplies, so he hurried to discuss with Shen Li, so he asked Lin Fu to go to Dengzhou with the ship first, and he took Yang Tian off the ship to Jinan Mansion by land.

Yang Tian helped take care of Shen Li's family's trip south to Huguang.

Shen Rui and Shen Li discussed in detail the recent affairs of the DPRK and China in the secret room of the study.

Now that there is a lot of noise in Beijing to introduce heirs to the emperor, Shen Rui listened to Liu Zhong's words about being optimistic about the sect and the clan.

As for the private affairs of the harem, nothing has been verified yet, so I have to keep my mouth shut.

There are not many kings of Shandong Domain, and there is the incident of sea trade, King De's Mansion was frustrated, and other Shandong vassal kings also shrank their necks, which is okay to say.

There are really a lot of clans in Huguang, and now King Rong, who has just been in Huguang Changde Mansion, is on the cusp.

"I don't know if this person is really confused or pretending to be confused." Shen Rui commented unceremoniously. As early as when King Rong was in Beijing, Shen Rui didn't have a good impression of him.

King Rong has no one to see him since the queen mother to the emperor, and he still has to make a lot of trouble, and then he fell into the bidding, and finally went out of Beijing in a gray manner, in Shen Rui's opinion, he is a first-class stupid person.

And this stupid person jumped out at this time, if he was tricked, it would be fine, if he really had the idea of fishing in troubled waters, it would be really stupid.

In addition to King Rong, there is another one that Shen Rui has to pay attention to.

"In November last year, King Xing gave more than 1,000 taels of silver to fund the officers and soldiers of the court to suppress the thieves, and the emperor also praised him greatly."

"Over the years, King Xing has also given money and grain to help the victims, Hongzhi 12 years, 18 years, Zhengde three years have had disaster relief, it is said that the number of survivors is more than 10,000."

"In order to prevent floods, King Xing once funded the construction of embankments for more than 40 miles, and gave tenants wheat seeds for the coming year to stabilize the place."

"Xingwang cloth medicine, worship sainthood. Zhou Wencai, a specially appointed physician, selected medical prescriptions, compiled medical books, and "bowed to proofreading" and wrote a preface to them one by one. In the summer, medicinal bait soup is also set up inside and outside the city to help the people. ”

"King Xing Chang ordered Changshi to burn incense in the Temple of Literature to salute, and after the salute, he gathered all the students in the Minglun Hall, listened to the lecture "Zhou Yi", and supervised the students to study ......"

Talking about such a good deed, Shen Rui's face did not have any expression of praise.

In his previous life, the history books of Xingxian Wang were full of praise, he didn't believe it, the history books were written by the victors, after the great etiquette dispute, who would dare to write that Emperor Jiajing's father was not good?

In this time and space, Shen Rui has been paying attention to the situation of several famous vassal kings in the history books since he was capable, and this Xingwang is really a rare clear stream among the vassals.

Come to think of it, in history, Yang Tinghe was able to choose the Xingxian King, in addition to the popular belief that Zhu Houxi was smart and sensitive, and kept the palace in good order at a young age, it was also related to the good reputation accumulated by the Xingxian King.

But thinking of what Emperor Jiajing did to Emperor Zhengde and Empress Dowager Zhang after he succeeded to the throne, and thinking of Emperor Jiajing dragging a good Ming into the abyss step by step, Shen Rui was resentful.

If he is allowed to do this, he will not want the old thing to happen again!

Shen Rui looked at Shen Li seriously and said, "However, recently, I talked to Pang Tianqing about some things in Huguang......

"In the Hongzhi Dynasty, Xingwangfu successively begged for 1,352 acres of silt land in the two lakes of Chima and wild boars, and in fact, there were more than 1,700 military and civilian families who had lived there for many years...... The first emperor treated the clan well, and in the end he agreed.

Xingfu was not satisfied, but he was not looking for the land of ordinary people, and got 449 hectares of incense fields from Ying, Liang Erwang, and fought for land with Xiangwangfu for many years, and finally called Xingfu to win.

Now it is said that among the feudal domains, King De has the most acres, in fact, King Xing is silent, and the acres of land under his name have exceeded 6,000 hectares. There are also things such as covering up illegal salt and entouraging illegal salt......"

Shen Li frowned when he heard this, and sighed: "I only heard of the Xingwang Xian name, and I don't want to ......."

It's just spending the money of the imperial court to buy a good reputation for one's own family.

Compared with the flowers, it is only a drop in the bucket.

Of course, this person who is willing to spend money to buy a good name is still better than only caring about his own pleasure and harming the place.

"There are many clans in Huguangzong, and there are thousands of miles of fertile fields, and they can't stand such erosion." Shen Ruizheng said, "In the past few years, Huguang has been affected by natural disasters, and the people are hungry for food. The sixth brother has made great achievements in disaster relief in Shandong, and he is afraid that he will have to shoulder the burden of disaster relief again.

He stared at Shen Li's eyes, and his tone gradually became lighter, "As soon as the matter of choosing the Taimiao Sixiang came out this time, there was no shortage of people who had further thoughts......

Shen Li nodded slowly, indicating that no matter what Shen Rui meant or what the emperor meant, he understood. "Now it's just taking advantage of the east wind of the incense of the Tai Temple to move the sect."

He said, "If you have a good reputation, you should set an example and make a better reputation; Those who have a bad reputation - if you want to have a good reputation, you can't just shout two voices around the emperor. ”

Shen Rui couldn't help but smile when he heard this, "Sixth brother's words are wonderful. ”

As he spoke, he brought up another important matter. "This time, because the sixth brother went to Huguang, Cai Liang introduced another person for me, Dingxi Hou Jiang Yan. Although he was knighted, he had not yet been filial piety, so he was stranded in Beijing. ”

Jiang Jishi, the Marquis of Xiding, is a veteran, has guarded Jizhen, Liaodong, Hongzhi 18 years Peiping general Yin Zhen guarded Huguang.

In the Ming Dynasty, among the military who generally ate empty salaries, it was rare for a good general not to drink the blood of soldiers, not only was he not greedy for the soldiers under his command, but he subsidized a lot of silver taels, and even had no money left behind.

In those years, Liu Jin took power and was extremely rampant, and once sent people to Dingxi Hou to ask for bribes.

The old marquis doesn't say that he doesn't have any silver, even if he has silver, he won't give such a good.

The two sides broke up unhappily, and the bribe-seeker turned around and sued Diao, and Liu Jin angrily ordered someone to frame Dingxihou.

When the thieves in Huguang stole it, the old marquis eliminated a group of bandits and made meritorious contributions, and those impeachment excerpts were naturally suppressed.

But the old marquis's temperament is like fire, how can he be willing to accept this idleness, and he happened to make a meritorious service, so he also folded the bullet to impeach Liu Jin for bribery.

It was the years when Liu Jin's arrogance was at its peak, how could Liu Jin allow him, deliberately instructed people to default on the supply of food and wages, so that the officers and soldiers suffered a big defeat, and then let people fold bullets to impeach Xihou Yi and delay the military plane to suppress the bandits.

The old marquis was angry and angry, and he was a soldier who died in vain, and he was angry and attacked his heart to cause an old illness, and he passed away after more than half a year.

Rao is a Sven person like Shen Li couldn't help but hate and scolded: "Eunuch should be damned!" ”

Because he asked Shen Rui again: "I heard that it is Nanhe Bofang Shouxiang who is guarding Huguang now, Jiang Yan is looking for you, but do you have the heart to go to Huguang again?" ”

There is no such practice as the death of a father and a son, that is, the emperor's cronies like Liu Wen, Marquis of Anyuan, and the special situation of Guangxi has this treatment.

However, Nanhe Bofang Shouxiang had been in Beijing for more than a year, and he was transferred to guard Huguang after being sent out to guard Guizhou.

And now that Huguang is plagued by bandits, it is really necessary for the brave soldiers to clean it up as soon as possible.

The current Dingxi Marquis Jiang Yan followed his father in Liaodong when he was a teenager, and in recent years, he has followed Huguang to suppress bandits, and he is familiar with the local situation, and he is also a fierce general, which is actually very suitable for the situation in Huguang.

Shen Li thought that Jiang Wei came to find Shen Rui to find a way, after all, Shen Rui also had a good relationship with Xungui, and he was even more able to speak in front of the emperor.

Shen Rui shook his head and said, "Jiang Yan didn't look for me for this. Moreover, the emperor let Jiang Yan and Li Quanli, who was also the new lord, enter the Jingwei martial arts, which is also very useful. ”

Zhang Hui went to Liaodong, and Jingwei Wuxue handed it over to Zhou Xian, who was filial piety.

Those who can enter Jingwei martial arts are also people who can be trusted by the emperor, of course, if it weren't for this, it wouldn't be Cai Liang who brought Jiang Yan to find Shen Rui.

"Jiang Yan came to tell me the background of some people in Huguang," Shen Rui lowered his voice, "There are also a few people who have taken refuge in Liu Jin with honest faces. ”

Jiang Yan and Liu Jin have a mortal enmity, and they feel that Shen Li, Xie Qian's son-in-law, also wants Liu Jin to die, and Shen Rui has not been tripped by Liu Jin, so he will find it.

It is best to take revenge through the hands of their brothers, but they can't take revenge, and this is also a favor to deliver the news they need.

Such a list is not easy to fall on paper, so Shen Rui whispered more than a dozen names, including the political envoys, the inspection envoys, and the local state capitals.

Shen Li's brain could not be bad, and he silently wrote it down in his heart.

He got the holy decree, and also inquired about the affairs of Huguang, and also wrote a letter to Shaoxing to thank his father-in-law Xie Qian, his own family already knew the situation in Huguang, but he didn't want the list brought by Shen Rui this time to be unexpected to him.

Shen Li couldn't help but think about the layout after taking office.

Shen Rui said: "Sixth brother don't worry, in the past two years, Liu Jin has been investigating corruption and clearing acres of land with great fanfare, and he is accustomed to 'sharing worries for the emperor'. ”

The people on this list are just the right thing to do.

Shen Li couldn't help laughing, and said, "I want to give a great credit to Eunuch Liu's ......."
