As Zhu Hao's voice fell, Zhu Youxiao looked at it very kindly, Zhu Hao, who had not seen him for more than three months, did not care about the emperor's prestige at all, hurriedly took a few steps forward, took Zhu Hao's hand and said: "Brother Huang, you have been there for more than three months, but I miss it!" Needless to say, you handled the affairs of Zhejiang very well this time, and returned to the palace with me first, I have already set up a banquet, and our brothers talked while eating! After Zhu Youxiao's words were finished, he pulled Zhu Hao and walked forward together.

After Zhu Youxiao's words were finished, Zhu Hao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he could feel that his eldest brother had not changed anything in his treatment as before. However, Zhu Hao saw that his eldest brother was about to pull him towards the emperor's steps, and he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, don't you let your younger brother walk into the palace with you!" And let the younger brother get on the sedan chair and enter the palace with His Majesty! ”

In fact, Zhu Hao understood that his eldest brother was going to enter the palace with him on the emperor's royal court, but so many ministers watched, Zhu Hao didn't dare to do such an overstepping thing, but he couldn't say anything about the imperial palace directly, so he could only say it half-jokingly.

Sure enough, after Zhu Hao's words were finished, Zhu Youxiao smiled and said, "Brother Huang, who are you doing with me?" Am I like a faint king who treats heroes badly? You and I can take the royal drive back to the palace, and you can also tell me about the royal brother on the way, what you have seen and heard all the way to Zhejiang! I want to know what the outside world is like! ”

Zhu Hao listened to his emperor's eldest brother really say such a thing, so he hurriedly refused: "Your Majesty, this monarch and ministers are different, how dare the ministers and brothers go over, if the ministers and His Majesty take the royal palace back to the palace today, I am afraid that tomorrow the ministers impeach the ministers for not understanding the courtesy of the monarchs and ministers, and offending the monarch's power, they will fly into the Qianqing Palace like snowflakes!" Brother Chen's trip to Zhejiang, although he didn't dare to talk about the hardship, but he really didn't want to cause trouble for himself, and asked His Majesty to be sympathetic to his brother! ”

Zhu Youxiao listened to Zhu Hao's words, laughed, and then said: "Brother Huang, I always thought that you were a lord who was not afraid of heaven and earth, but I didn't expect you to go to Zhejiang and know that you were afraid!" Ha ha...... That's a rarity! ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled happily when he spoke, as if he saw Zhu Hao's fear, which was very rare, Zhu Hao looked at the smile of his emperor's eldest brother, and couldn't help but look a little embarrassed, Zhu Hao knew that this trip to Zhejiang did give him a certain prestige in the court, and it could be regarded as officially stepping onto the political stage, but he could no longer be as bad as before, because since Zhejiang, no one would treat him as a child, so there are some things, Zhu Hao can't ignore it.

After a while, Zhu Youxiao stopped laughing, and then said to Zhu Hao: "Imperial brother, you don't have to worry, I will give you an order in front of the ministers now, and I will give you the same way, so that they can't tell that the imperial brother is not here!" If they want to be impeached, let them impeach me! ”

Zhu Youxiao said without waiting for Zhu Hao's reaction, so he opened his mouth and shouted: "Zhongxian, pass the decree for me, I want to send the king back to the palace with the letter!" ”

As Zhu Youxiao's words fell, Wei Zhongxian, who had just been standing ten steps away from Zhu Youxiao, hurriedly took two steps forward, and then knelt on the ground and said, "The slave obeys the order!" ”

Wei Zhongxian has always been inseparable from Zhu Youxiao in the past few months, but today he left Zhu Youxiao ten steps away, no one knows whether Wei Zhongxian's actions are because he is afraid of Zhu Hao and does not dare to step forward, or because Zhu Youxiao has any instructions for him.

Following Wei Zhongxian's words, after finishing speaking, Wei Zhongxian turned over and stood up, and then shouted in a sharp voice to the ministers who knelt down to greet him: "Your Majesty has a decree, and I will give His Royal Highness the King of Letters to return to the palace together!" ”

After Wei Zhongxian's words were finished, the faces of the ministers were different, and there were a few ministers who were about to move, and they wanted to say anything, but they were all stopped by the heads of the forces where they were located, and they were stopped with their eyes.

No one made trouble, needless to say, Zhu Hao followed his emperor's eldest brother Zhu Youxiao and entered the palace together on the Son of Heaven.

The location of the Qianqing Palace outside the gate of this palace is not too far, so Zhu Hao did not rush to talk about Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka family, but simply told his emperor eldest brother about what he had seen and heard in Hangzhou.

Arrived at the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youxiao took Zhu Hao's hand, and walked into the hall together, the ministers who had just knelt to welcome Zhu Hao, and did not follow up, because the early dynasty time had already passed at this moment, in addition to the early dynasty time, the foreign ministers needed the emperor's decree to enter the Qianqing Palace, they were just outside the palace gate, just to complete the ceremony of kneeling to welcome the hundred officials, the ceremony had been completed at this moment, and these people naturally went back to their respective homes, but Zhu Hao's return to Beijing was a mixed blessing for a group of ministers, and the most worrying of them was the Donglin Party system.

This time, the Donglin Party painstakingly laid out and attacked the Zhejiang Party, but as a result, all their layouts in Zhejiang were almost destroyed by Zhu Hao, a political envoy, a press inspection envoy, and a guard commander were all folded in Zhu Hao's hands, this loss is not small, of course, these are not the most critical things for the Donglin Party, which has deep roots.

The most important thing now is that they don't know what Zhu Hao has found out and what is involved, if the courtiers are really involved, then their Donglin Party will really be broken this time.

Therefore, after Zhu Hao accompanied Zhu Youxiao into the palace and the ministers dispersed, the important members of the Donglin Party were called by Li Shoujun and Zou Yuanbiao to discuss the matter. However, because they didn't know what Zhu Hao had in his hands, they discussed and discussed, but there was no substantive result, and in the end they could only decide to wait and see how Zhu Hao made a move, and then see the move.

At this moment, Zhu Hao, who entered the Qianqing Palace with his emperor's eldest brother Zhu Youxiao, didn't think about the Donglin Party at all, what he was thinking about now was how to deal with Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka family.

Because the current Donglin Party is just a mustard disease for Zhu Hao, and Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka family want to shake his position in the heart of his emperor's eldest brother, and his hand is not only stretched out to the Praetorian Guard, but also tries to hurt his mother, even if it is not said that this is a fundamental thing that hurts Zhu Hao, just the fact that Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka family almost killed their mother and Hua Rong makes Zhu Hao unable to bear it.

Therefore, after Zhu Hao sat down in the Qianqing Palace, he let his emperor's eldest brother retreat, and then said directly: "Big brother, during the time when the younger brother is gone, can anything happen in the palace?" ”

Zhu Hao did not directly say about his mother and Hua Rong, but tested his emperor's eldest brother's tone to see if his emperor's eldest brother knew about it.

After Zhu Hao's words were finished, Zhu Youxiao frowned slightly, and then said, "Brother Huang, why do you ask so?" Did you hear something? As far as I know, not to mention the palace in the past few months, nothing has happened in the court! ”

Zhu Hao listened to the words of his eldest brother of the emperor, and did not answer what he knew about the eldest brother of the emperor, but asked tentatively again: "Big brother, do you remember Hua Rong, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, who was recommended to you by his younger brother?" ”

Zhu Youxiao listened to Zhu Hao's words, and became even more suspicious, and said suspiciously: "Of course Hua Rong remembers that he saved my life, how can I forget him?" I remember when you recommended him to me, I immediately agreed! ”

Zhu Hao was basically sure that Hua Rong's matter was done by Wei Zhongxian behind his own initiative, so he quickly stood up, bowed to his emperor's eldest brother, and said with a solemn expression: "Big brother, my brother dares to ask you, where is the current leader of Hua Rong?" ”

Zhu Youxiao was completely blindsided by Zhu Hao's actions and Zhu Hao's words, he also stood up, and said with a very puzzled expression: "Brother Huang, Hua Rong, as the commander of the Praetorian Guard, is naturally in the Praetorian Guard!" Why do you knowingly ask, brother? Brother Huang, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly, you go around and around like this, you are confused by me, we are our own brothers, you can't learn those old antiques in the court, and you will go around with me at every turn! ”

Zhu Hao listened to the words of his emperor's eldest brother, bowed down again and said: "Big brother, if you come over Xuan Huarong now, you will be clear, everything still needs to be judged by the eldest brother, and the younger brother said that the opinion of the younger brother is afraid that it will affect your judgment of the eldest brother!" ”

After Zhu Hao said this, he secretly said in his heart: "Wei Zhongxian, Wei Zhongxian, the crime of bullying the king, the false transmission of the holy decree, this king wants to see how you can survive today!" Even taking advantage of the fact that the king is not in the capital, the people who move the king really treat the king as mud? ”

Zhu Youxiao listened to Zhu Hao's words, and his curiosity was fully aroused by Zhu Hao, so when Zhu Hao's words fell, Zhu Youxiao hurriedly shouted outside the door: "Wei Zhongxian!" You let me in! ”

Although Wei Zhongxian went out of the room because of Zhu Youxiao's resignation, but firstly, because of Zhu Hao, and secondly, because he was the emperor's close attendant, he had been guarding the door, and when he heard Zhu Youxiao calling him inside, he hurriedly walked into the room, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "The slave is here, Your Majesty, do you have any instructions for the slave?" ”

Zhu Youxiao was still frowning, and then said: "You go to the Praetorian Guard, lead Hua Rong, and pass it over, I have something to ask him!" ”

Wei Zhongxian listened to Zhu Youxiao's words, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, kneeling there, motionless and not saying a word.
