Zhu Fu's reason for doing this is actually very simple, that is, Zhu Houzhao's visit to Nanjing this time is very likely to involve the military's side of the matter, after all, military reform has been carried out in other places this time.

This time, Zhu Houzhao came to Nanjing in person, and it was impossible not to move in this regard. So in order to avoid suspicion and prevent the prince from suspecting, Zhu Fu handed over the military power.

Although Zhu Houzhao understands Zhu Fu very well, he understands that he will not let him do this.

Although Zhu Fu's choice is very good, it will not make the outside world suspicious. Even if everyone guessed what was going on, they wouldn't think that it was he, the prince, who wanted to do anything to Zhu Fu.

If Zhu Fu did this, he would not let his subordinates be suspicious. In this way, they will not have any rebellious mentality, and there will be no mistakes.

However, Zhu Houzhao still needs Zhu Fu to do things for himself, and it is impossible for him to avoid it like this.

Looking at Zhu Fu, Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said, "There will be opportunities in the future." If Guogong wants to see it, he can go to the capital to see it, the black dragon guard there is much better than here. When the time comes, Guogong will see it for as long as he wants. But now the palace needs some help from the prince. ”

Listening to Zhu Houzhao's words, Zhu Fu's face also became serious.

Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said so to himself, it must be that the matter has reached a certain level, so he can be regarded as having won the trust of His Royal Highness the Prince.

Then he can't be cheating anymore, otherwise he will seem to be ignorant and can't do things, which will make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince very displeased with him. It's not a good thing to make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dislike himself at this time.

So Zhu Fu stood up and saluted respectfully: "Please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to command." ”

Zhu Youxiao opened his mouth and said: "This palace is going to Zhejiang, and the matter here will be handed over to you, you keep an eye on it for this palace." There may be chaos here in Nanjing, you transfer a team of people to Qi Huan, don't let him have an accident. ”

"You should also know about the case of the household department. These people are too bold, and I don't know how many officials in Nanjing have done bad things, and it will be difficult to deal with them once something goes wrong. ”

"Yes, Your Highness the Prince. Chancellor understood. Zhu Fu hurriedly spoke, the expression on his face was still very serious.

Now he finally knows how big things are. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not at ease with some people in Nanjing, and is worried that someone in Nanjing will make some chaos at this time, or even rebel.

This is definitely not good news for Zhu Fu.

However, Zhu Fu still has some confidence, confident that he can control the situation here and will not delay the affairs of His Royal Highness the Prince.

But after you go back, you have to make careful arrangements, so that nothing can go wrong.

"This palace has transferred all the people from Dongchang here to you, and the people from Jinyiwei are on Qi Huan's side. In addition, the palace will also leave some people for you, who are Yang Lian's people. This time, they found out the case of the household department, and I believe they can give you some help. Zhu Houzhao said again.

These people are not only left to help themselves, but also to monitor themselves, which Zhu Fu knows very well, but he has long been used to this kind of thing, so he said: "Chen understands. ”

"Liu Jin, you send Guogong out." Zhu Houzhao said to Liu Jin, who was standing not far away.

Watching Liu Jin send Zhu Fu out, Zhu Houzhao moved his body bones.

Speaking of which, I have really been comfortable for a while, I haven't gone out for some days, this time I just moved my muscles and bones, and after being idle for so long, my body is about to rust.

Soon Liu Jin came back, and there was a person behind him, it was this time that followed Zhu Houzhao to Nanjing Black Dragon Guard Zhang He.

After seeing Zhang He, Zhu Houzhao asked directly: "Are you almost ready?" ”

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, I'm almost ready." Zhang He hurriedly said.

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then said, "Then inform Yang Lian, let him take the manpower, and let's go." ”

The officials here in Nanjing soon got the news that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was preparing to leave Nanjing for Zhejiang.

This news made many people breathe a sigh of relief, after all, after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince arrived in Nanjing, it was not long before something happened to the household department, who knows what else will happen in the future?

Now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is gone, he can relax a little more on his side.

However, some people are not so happy, obviously His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went to Zhejiang this time, but it is not a past to take a look, there must be something.

The officials involved in Zhejiang were all panicked.

After Zhu Houzhao left Nanjing, he rushed to Zhejiang with his Black Dragon Army and Black Dragon Guard.

Zhu Houzhao is the first time to come to Hangzhou.

In his previous life, he had heard the saying "There is heaven above, and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou below", but although Zhu Houzhao wanted to go to Hangzhou in his previous life, he never had any chance, and he didn't expect to run to Hangzhou in this life.

When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to Hangzhou, naturally no one dared to slack off, and everyone ran out to greet him.

From the governor of Zhejiang, down to the prefect of Hangzhou, and the officials of the large and small yamen, all arrived.

Everyone is very worried in their hearts, and the matter in Nanjing is naturally that the paper can't hold the fire.

This is from the time His Royal Highness the Crown Prince arrived in Nanjing, and the news in Nanjing was noticed by all the officials in Jiangnan, and basically every day there was news back.

After the incident in Nanjing, Hangzhou naturally received the news. Although I don't know what happened in Nanjing, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went straight to Hangzhou from Nanjing, and everyone had a bad premonition in their hearts, so the officials in Hangzhou were very worried.

Standing at the front of the crowd was Zhang Xian, the governor of Zhejiang.

This is a thin man in his 50s, with a majestic face, a beard, very neatly groomed, and the whole person stands there quite neatly.

Looking back at the Zhejiang officials who were a little worried behind him, Zhang Xian's face was not nervous.

Unlike many officials present, Zhang Xian has only been in Zhejiang for two months, and even if there is something in Zhejiang, he is basically not implicated.

On the contrary, for the arrival of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince this time, Zhang Xian's heart welcomed it.

Since arriving in Zhejiang, Zhang Xian has actually found that there are many problems in Zhejiang, although he is the governor, there is nothing he can do to change it.

The whole of Zhejiang, whether it is the officials or the local gentry, or even the guards on the coast of Zhejiang, all things and all the people seem to be contained in an invisible ball, only he, Zhang Xian, looks like an outsider.

For a period of time in Zhejiang, these people have been trying to pull themselves into the water, and they have used a lot of means, both soft and hard, money and wine, and it can be said that they do everything.

If they don't say yes, these people will do it to themselves. I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in Zhejiang for long, and the wisest thing to do is to turn a blind eye to them like the officials in the past, and at most I will not be in the same way.

When they leave Zhejiang, they will give a big gift, and by the way, they will advocate for themselves, and then it will be hello, hello, hello, everyone.

Zhang Xian had actually already moved such a thought, but things took a turn for the better at this time, because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came down, so things immediately became different.

Especially when he got the news that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rushed to Zhejiang, Zhang Xian knew that he couldn't think like he did or do what he did.

It is definitely unwise to make a position clear at this time, in fact, those people are pushing themselves these days, but Zhang Xian has held on.

Because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is about to arrive in Zhejiang, those people don't dare to make any troubles, so the pressure is not as great as before.

Zhang Xian knew in his heart that this time the prince would come to Zhejiang next, and it would definitely not be a peaceful arrival.

As Zhang Xian retracted his gaze, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded in the distance.

Looking in the direction from which the voice came, a group of black-armored cavalry rumbled over.

Their speed is not fast, but the pressure is very high, because both men and horses move in a very uniform manner.

It looks like the horse's hooves are raised and falling at the same time, and the black armor gives a very oppressive feeling.

The horses walked forward in order, and the black-armored men sitting on horseback were in unison, their faces covered with masks, as if they had come out of hell.

The banners on both sides were waving in the wind, and everyone knew at a glance that this was the famous Black Dragon Army - the personal guard army of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today, with great achievements, known as no one at that time.

The Black Dragon Army crisscrossed the Northwest Desert, whether it was the fierce Tatars or the bravado Dayan Khan, all of them had been beaten by this army.

From the beginning of its existence to the present, this army has never lost a battle.

As the so-called name of a man and the shadow of a tree, let alone a mighty and majestic army?

The moment he saw this army, Zhang Xian felt that the voice behind him disappeared in an instant, but it soon sounded.

Zhang Xian even heard the sound of someone's teeth chattering, but he didn't look back, because he was also shocked by the scene in front of him.

When the cavalry approached Zhang Xian, it divided into two columns and slowly flashed to the side.

Behind the cavalry, there was also a group of black-armored cavalry, but unlike the cavalry in front, these black-armored cavalrymen wore black cloaks and looked more fierce, and their masks were all black.

Zhang Xian was an official in the capital before, and he knew that this army was the Black Dragon Guard, the personal guard of His Royal Highness the Prince.

It is said that the best of the best in the Black Dragon Army are selected, and only those who have slashed and killed at least 10 people on the battlefield can be selected.

It can be said that this is a group of killing gods, this group of people is survival of the fittest, and the number has been maintained at 3,000 people, which can be said to be the strongest army in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhang Xian watched them come over, and at the same time he was a little excited in his heart, and at the same time, cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

These people really don't look like human beings.

When the Black Dragon Guard also separated, a man dressed differently finally appeared, he was dressed in silver armor, wearing a bright red cloak behind him, sitting on a horse heroically, and walked out of the crowd.

When everyone saw this person, they knew that this person was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

So the big and small officials hurriedly knelt down to pay respects.

Zhu Hou looked at the kneeling Zhejiang civil and military officials, with no expression on his face.

Zhu Houzhao decided not to comment on his sassy clothes, anyway, if these clothes were on the battlefield, he would definitely become the target of the public, and all the bows and arrows would shoot at him.

Turning over and dismounting, Zhu Houzhao came to the front of the Zhejiang ministers under the escort of the Black Dragon Guard, and then said, "Let's be exempt from courtesy." ”

As he spoke, Zhu Houzhao stretched out his hand and made a gesture of false support, and then waited until everyone stood up before speaking: "Before the palace left Beijing, my father and the emperor explained that the palace was not allowed to disturb the place. So go back, all of you. If Hongu wants to see someone, he will send someone to find him. ”

As he spoke, Zhu Hou looked at Zhang Xian, who was standing in front of him, and then said, "Let them all go back and perform their duties, and don't change anything because of the arrival of this palace." If something happens in Hangzhou, it will be the responsibility of this palace. ”

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince." Zhang Xian hurriedly agreed, and then said to the people around him: "Let them all go back." ”

The man nodded, then turned and walked briskly to command.

Zhu Houzhao's gaze fell on the person Zhang Xian was talking to. Judging from the way he was dressed, this person should be the political envoy of Zhejiang, and he also looks like a relatively thin official.

He didn't have to do this matter, but Zhang Xian pointed him out at this time.

I don't know what Zhang Xian's relationship with him is, but I really want to make myself notice this person.

Glancing at the back of the leaving, Zhu Houzhao looked at Zhang Xian again, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

I just entered Zhejiang, and this one came here, it seems that the water in Zhejiang is very deep, and things are not simple.

Zhejiang's officials are inevitably not monolithic, and they should be fighting fiercely.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister has prepared a residence in the city, and arranged a place for the army to be stationed, please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to move." Zhang Xian said beside Zhu Houzhao, his face did not change, and he couldn't see that this thing was intentional at all.

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and said with a smile: "Let Aiqing bother." ”

As he spoke, Zhu Houzhao got into the carriage prepared by Zhang Xian and entered Hangzhou City under the escort of the Black Dragon Guard.

After entering Hangzhou City, Zhu Youxiao found that there were no people on either side of the street, and it was obvious that all of them had been cleared.

The doors and windows of the houses on both sides of the surrounding street are also closed, and it is clear that they have been ordered not to open the windows.

Glancing at Zhang Xian, Zhu Houzhao withdrew his gaze again.

Zhu Houzhao didn't ask, nor did he say anything.

Zhang Xian arranged it like this, so he naturally had his reasons,

After arriving at the place arranged by Zhang Xian, Zhu Houzhao sent him away, because he was no longer needed here.

Before he figured out the situation, he wouldn't do anything, and he wouldn't ask Zhang Xian anything.

However, judging from the current situation, the matter in Hangzhou is interesting.
