In comparison, Yang Yiqing's ending was far worse than Zhang Yong's, Yang Yiqing remembered that Zhang Yong listened to his words and helped him bring down Liu Jin, and he helped Zhang Yong rehabilitate. This matter can be seen what kind of character Yang Yiqing is. If he were an ordinary civil official, who would rehabilitate Zhang Yong for this, he was just a eunuch.

Maybe he will be smug, he used a discord trick and successfully separated the two eunuchs who were in power, but Yang Yiqing did not.

After helping Zhang Yong rehabilitate, some people attacked Yang Yiqing, saying that he accepted bribes from Zhang Yong and Xiao Jing. Yang Yiqing defended and asked for dismissal again, although Emperor Jiajing retained, Zhang Xuan recalled again, Huo Tao attacked again, and said that the law department was adhering to Yang Yiqing's intentions and framed Gui Cao. Emperor Jiajing was furious at this, and ordered the law department to discuss with the courtiers, and then degraded Zhou Lun, the secretary of the criminal department, to serve as the secretary of the Nanjing criminal department, and replaced him with Xu Zan, a waiter.

Xu Zan then borrowed Huo Tao's words to request that Yang Yiqing be cut down, and then Zhang Xuan went to the secret three times, saying that Yang Yiqing pretended to beg for dismissal, but in essence, he wanted to strengthen Emperor Jiajing's idea. Sure enough, Ming Shizong allowed Yang Yiqing to give him gold coins.

In the second year, Zhang Xuan and others framed Zhu Jizong and others in prison, and said that Yang Yiqing accepted money from Zhang Yong's brother Zhang Rong, wrote an epitaph for Zhang Yong, and asked him to sit together. Yang Yiqing said with hatred: "I'm old, but I was bullied and played with by these children!" After that, he died of gangrene on his back, leaving a sparse behind, and he died without seeing it.

Although Yang Yiqing fell because of Emperor Jiajing's power struggle, he did fall because of Zhang Yong's affairs in the end, and he died very miserably in the end, which can be said to be a very sad thing. did the right thing, but was slandered, and finally died of grief and indignation, which also led to Jiajing has always been in a power struggle.

Zhu Hou looked at the back of Zhang Yong's departure, and naturally thought of his struggle with Liu Jin, and also thought of Yang Yiqing.

"This is my future courtier!" Zhu Houzhao said in his heart that he had a good impression of Yang Yiqing, because he was a principled person.

Of course, Emperor Jiajing instigated the power struggle between his courtiers to take power, but in Zhu Houzhao's opinion, it was really low, and the loss of internal struggles was even greater than that of foreign wars. The little national strength accumulated by the Hongzhi Zhengde and Zhengde dynasties was all consumed. Originally, Hongzhi laid the foundation and Zhengde reform, which was the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, but it was completely broken in the Jiajing Dynasty.

Zhang Juzheng's reform is also very good, but the result was also defeated by Emperor Wanli, even if you don't look down on Zhang Juzheng and dispose of him, there is no need to abolish the new policy, Zhang Juzheng's life's hard work is gone, and the hope of the Ming Dynasty has also been knocked out.

Standing in front of the main hall, looking at the gloomy sky, thinking about the past and future of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Houzhao's emotions in his heart were overturned, very depressed, and very dull.

"Your Highness, it's cold, don't stand here for too long!" Liu Jin came to Zhu Houzhao's side and reminded him in a low voice.

Zhu Hou glanced at Liu Jin, nodded slightly, and then said, "Is it cold?" It doesn't matter if it's cold, people's hearts can't be cold, it's cold, wear a little more and it will be warm, once people's hearts are cold, if you want to warm up, it's not a matter of wearing a little more. ”

The practice of Emperor Jiajing and Emperor Wanli actually aggravated the centrifugation of scholars and doctors, and indirectly led to the emergence of party strife and party differences. Sometimes you want to be quick enough to cut through the mess, but no, you have to take into account the human heart, and this human heart is often the heart of the world in this era.

Ordinary people can use benefits to envelop them, but scholars are not, they pursue ideals and beliefs, looking up at the sky, Zhu Houzhao feels that he is more mature.

The following days were as calm as water, there were no major things in the court, and Zhu Houzhao didn't have anything else to do except pay attention to burning glass and building iron stoves. Of course, Zhu Houzhao basically has to go to the Xiyuan campus every three days to train with his new army, and the new army of 3,000 people has been built.

It didn't take much effort to build an iron furnace, although the furnace needed to be hammered out by a craftsman, and the efficiency was not high, but Ge Dan was not in such a hurry.

The craftsmen of this era can be regarded as opening Ge Dan's eyes, and the iron plates smashed by those craftsmen with hammers are simply perfect existence. Originally, Ge Dan thought that he couldn't make a kettle or something, but he was taught a lesson by the old craftsman. They made a round iron plate, and then struck it upwards from the four corners to form a round kettle.

Although it is more like a round pot-bellied, it can be used to boil water.

The same goes for the iron stove, the round big stove, it looks a little silly, as for the chimney, although there are some splicing, but the creation is also tight, Ge Dan believes that it will not go out to smoke, it is simply a perfect masterpiece, and Ge Dan was dumbfounded. Those dry hands are almost like artists.

The firing of glass is going very well, the craftsmen first burned out the frosted glass, there are a lot of bubbles in it, but the transparency is good, anyway, Zhu Houzhao thinks that it is used to make glass, or used to make the covering glass of the greenhouse, this is very good, which makes Zhu Houzhao praise again, it is really amazing.

Looking at the glass sample in his hand, Zhu Houzhao nodded with satisfaction, this is a small piece cut from a large piece of glass, there are no bubbles, and the transparency is also very good.

Reaching out and touching the glass, Zhu Houzhao nodded with satisfaction, although this thing is still a little thick, and the transparency is not as good as that of later generations, but Zhu Houzhao believes that with the progress of technology, these craftsmen will definitely make better. Putting down the glass in his hand, Zhu Houzhao smiled and said to Zhang Yong, who was standing below: "Good job!" ”

"The duty of a slave!" Zhang Yong hurriedly replied, although he was not happy, he looked like he was going to laugh, but he still endured it.

Liu Jin on the side looked at it, and the expression on his face was ugly.

"You go back and tell those craftsmen to work hard, give more rewards, and wait until the right glass is made, and the War Bureau also adopts the production team system, and you let people tell them that after the New Year, the palace will build a private school in the War Bureau, so that all their children will study in the private school, and then let their children go to study." Zhu Houzhao said to Zhang Yong.

In addition to increasing work efficiency, these things are also Zhu Houzhao's subtle changes in the status of craftsmen.

The problem of the Ming Dynasty is definitely not as simple as simply letting go of household registration, and the low status of craftsmen is definitely the premise of restricting the great development of productive forces. How many secret techniques, how many crafts, how many advanced technologies, all because of this broken inheritance, this is something that Zhu Houzhao absolutely can't bear, so it is urgent to improve the status of craftsmen, but you can't be too anxious.

"Yes, Your Highness, the slave will tell them when she goes back!" Zhang Yong hurriedly said: "They will definitely be grateful for His Highness's kindness." ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then continued: "You can also go back and rest!" This palace knows that you haven't slept well for three days in order to see this furnace glass, go back and take a shower and rest. ”

"Your Highness!" Zhang Yong nodded with red eyes, his efforts at this moment were worth it.

Looking at Zhang Yong's back, Zhu Houzhao smiled, the eunuch has no life, and all he asks for is power and money, but Zhu Houzhao feels that if he is guided a little, these people may not be able to have great ideals, Cai Lun, who made paper, Taishi Gong, who was tortured by the palace to write historical records, not to mention far, doesn't Daming still have a three-treasure eunuch?

"Your Highness, Grandpa He is here!" Liu Jin came to Zhu Houzhao's side, bowed down and said.

He Neng is here? It seemed that there was something going on on his father's side, Zhu Houzhao nodded and said, "Let him in!" ”

It didn't take long for He Neng to walk in from outside, and after seeing Zhu Houzhao, he hurriedly bowed and saluted: "See Your Highness!" ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded lightly, and then said, "Is there anything my father has ordered?" ”

"Your Highness Mingjian, the emperor invites His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come over!" He Neng said with a smile.

Zhu Houzhao was not surprised, out of Xianyang Palace came to Qianqing Palace, when Zhu Houzhao arrived, Zhu Youzhu was reading the question book, and when he saw Zhu Houzhao walking in, Zhu Youzhu said with a smile: "This is the question book on the inspection of the Changlu Salt Farm, the Changlu Salt Farm has been cleaned up, a batch of punishments have been punished, and the reform of the production team has also been completed." ”

Stretched out his hand to take the question book handed over by his father, Zhu Houzhao quickly glanced at it, and then Zhu Houzhao smiled.

These civil officials are also very dark, especially on the side of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, it is simply rectified to death, none of the officials in the entire Changlu Salt Farm have run away, all of them are guilty, and the matter of raiding the house is not ambiguous at all, and the salt merchants involved have also been dealt with, obviously this is stimulated by the case in Yangzhou.

If no problems were found in the Changlu Salt Farm, or if all the problems found were small, these people were also afraid that the emperor would be dissatisfied.

Yangzhou's case has already made Zhu Youzhu dissatisfied with the Metropolitan Procuratorate, if he doesn't behave well this time, it is estimated that the Metropolitan Procuratorate will be changed from top to bottom, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate who held his breath was really ruthless this time. However, Zhu Houzhao knew that there was still something to hide, because there were not many scholars who were caught, and a few of them were small fish and shrimp.

However, Zhu Houzhao also knew that it was time for stability at this time, and it was really not appropriate to make a fuss, so he nodded and said, "It's done!" ”

Zhu Youzhu glanced at his son approvingly, nodded with satisfaction, and then said with a smile: "It's really good, a few salt farms have been sorted out, I believe that the salt class of the imperial court will definitely increase a lot next year, and the state will be able to be more generous at that time. ”

Zhu Houzhao also nodded, not to sweep his father's interest, in fact, their father and son both knew that the root of Daming's financial problems was not here.
