If it weren't for His Majesty's knees and His Royal Highness the Prince, Liu Jin felt that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not be able to stand up and walk out of the Qianqing Palace today. After this incident, will His Majesty have plans to have another prince with the queen mother?

Zhu Houzhao soon arrived at Kunning Palace, and without waiting for the eunuchs to report, Zhu Houzhao went in directly.

"Emperor, what are you doing here?" As soon as Empress Zhang put down the tea in her hand, she saw her son Zhu Houzhao striding in, and seemed to be in a hurry with a little dissatisfaction.

Zhu Houzhao sat down and said, "Erchen has seen the queen mother, and the son wants to tell the queen mother something!" ”

"Oh, what's the matter? Isn't it about the Yang family woman you knew before? If you like it, the queen mother will choose a day to let her be a side concubine, her family background is still good, and the queen mother also likes it! Empress Zhang said with a smile.

"Mother, what the son wants to tell you is not like this, this is the matter of the son, if it really comes to that point, the son will come to ask his father and mother. The son came today because he had other things to tell his mother! Zhu Hou said righteously.

"What's the matter, then you say come and tell the queen mother!" Empress Zhang said.

"The Queen Mother. The son came to tell the queen mother that the salt that the father promised to give the two uncles before would not be given! Zhu Houzhao was straightforward, not caring at all if he would refute his mother's face if he said it so bluntly.

"Why, didn't your father say it before? Why do you regret it, the queen mother has to ask your father! Saying that, Empress Zhang was about to get up, ready to ask Emperor Zhu Youzhu of Hongzhi what was going on.

"Queen Mother, you don't have to go! It's Erchen's attention, and Erchen feels that this salt is not necessary for the two uncles! Zhu Houzhao turned his back to Queen Zhang and said calmly word by word.

"You're in charge of your father's decision? Why, that's your own uncle! You can't turn your elbows out, huh? Empress Zhang looked at her son in some surprise.

"The queen mother, the two uncles have relied on the queen mother's already got enough benefits in the royal family, the royal family is not a bottomless rice tank, and they can't let them go on like this again and again. Erchen read "The Book of Songs: Shuo Mouse" today and had a lot of feelings! Zhu Houzhao shook his clothes.

"How can you say that about your uncle? They're your uncles too! Empress Zhang said helplessly, he also knew that his two younger brothers were really useless except for begging him.

"Then the queen mother will only make them more and more arrogant, and make them feel that these treatments are what they should enjoy, do they respect the queen mother? They have thought about the queen mother, if they think about the queen mother, they will not cause trouble for the queen mother again and again, relying on the majesty of the queen mother to boost their arrogance, they are ruining the reputation of the queen mother, is ruining the reputation of the royal family! Zhu Houzhao picked up a cup of tea, and didn't care whether it was hot or not.

"Now that my father is in power, they dare to open their mouths like this. On that day, when the sons came to face them, were they forced by the pressure of the queen mother and the two uncles, and the sons still wanted to give them the title of king? Zhu Houzhao said.

"What a bastard!" Empress Zhang was a little angry, but he also agreed with what his son Zhu Houzhao said, his two younger brothers were really a little unusual.

"You are a little presumptuous today, you two uncles don't want salt leads, but who allowed you to talk to the queen mother like this?" Empress Zhang's phoenix eyes moved, "The queen mother really spoiled you, and there are more and more rules!" ”

Zhu Houzhao naturally realized that his actions were too extreme, so he slowly calmed down and said, "The queen mother's son's tone is a little heavier, but the son's son is also for the good of the queen mother!" ”

"Humph! Originally, the queen mother's good mood today was all disturbed for you, what do you say! Empress Zhang's red lips squirmed, looking unhappy but helpless in the face of her own son.

"Erchen knows his mistake!" Zhu Houzhao's apology was obviously very perfunctory.

"Alright, the queen mother is tired. Go back! ”

"Son's resignation!" After Zhu Houzhao returned, he began to study the officials who had served as the head of the household department in the past few years, and he was ready to use this as a breakthrough to implement his plan. He felt that the emperor could not be led by the nose by civil officials, and his father was obviously not tough enough in this regard.

But since the Tumubao Change, this has become a difficult thing to solve. The emperor needs civil officials to help govern the local area and various affairs, and all the major national affairs cannot be handled by the emperor alone!

Zhu Houzhao now thinks that it is better to be Emperor Yongle at that time, and the nobles are still there at that time, and they are all candidates who can be checked and balanced, but after the change of Tumubao, all of them are gone.

"Liu Daban, you go and help the palace find all the information of the household books in the years of my father's reign, see if you can find it!" Zhu Houzhao waited for Liu Jin to find the materials.

Of course, this is not a difficult task. It was nearly late, and Liu Jin presented the sorted manuscripts to Zhu Houzhao one by one.

The ancestor was Ye Heng, the prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, who lived in Jinhua. In the fifth year of Jingtai (1454), Jinshi. Bestow the Imperial History. In the early years of Tianshun, because he offended Shi Heng, he went out of Beijing to serve as the magistrate of Wuzhi. In Chenghua, the tired official Datong governor. When he was filial piety, he was called to serve as a household servant. In the fourth year of Hongzhi (1491), Li Min was the head of the household. Plus the Prince Taibao.

"In the fifth year of Hongzhi, Ye Qi will open the Chinese law, accept the grain, and directly exchange silver for salt, and the Hui merchants will take advantage of their advantages in the two Huai to develop rapidly. In the ninth year of Hongji, he retired in April. During his tenure as an official, he was widely benevolent and reduced taxes, and was deeply loved by the people. Zhu Houzhao read the information about Ye Qi, the previous head of the household department, "It seems that he is still a good official, but why did he come up with such a method?" ”

"Zhou Jing, Ming Xiyang Qu people, the word Bochang, the number truffle. Tianshun four years jinshi. Entered Hanlin as a Jishi. At the beginning of Hongzhi, the right waiter of the Ministry of Rites, the left waiter of the Ministry of Reform, the traitors dedicated their land to the eunuch Li Guang, and the household department was helpless, and he advocated that Jiuqing should fight to punish his crimes. After the official household department was still in the book, the household department was purged of treacherous and stupid, not afraid of slander, lenient and slow levy, redundant cuts, and less harsh wind. Zhu Houzhao was a little confused after reading the information of this Zhou Jing, "These two people are still good officials who are masters of the people, what is wrong with it?" ”

"The attention of this palace should not be whether they are good officials or not......" Zhu Houzhao grabbed his head and thought about it, and finally he finally understood a little after scratching off the crown of his hair on his head.

"This is not the focus of this palace, this palace should pay attention to these officials in the court, what kind of attitude they have. It is impossible for one civil official to become a climate, there must be a group of people! Zhu Houzhao seems to be starting to open his mind.
