Zhu Cijiong thought that King Xin and Sun Chengzong were looking for him because of the enthronement ceremony, but it was not the case for a long time.

It turned out that this enthronement ceremony had been completed, he was already the emperor, and it was time to exercise the power of the emperor next.

What is the power of the emperor used to manifest itself? Of course, it is a holy decree, and the king of letters, Zhu Youzhen and Sun Chengzong, came to let him make an order.

As soon as the two walked in, they naturally paid their respects first, and Zhu Cijiong asked them to calm down as usual, and then sat down.

As soon as Sun Chengzong sat down, he arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Wei Zhongxian is recruiting the henchmen sent to other places back to Beijing, and in less than a month, the Jinyi Wei and Dongchang Fanzi under him will surpass Luo Yangxing's Jinyi Wei, we have to prepare early." ”

Zhu Cijiong was a little panicked when he heard this, if Wei Zhongxian took a risk, then he would be in danger.

He really didn't know how to prepare, and seeing that Sun Chengzong didn't seem to be very worried, he hurriedly asked, "Taifu has a countermeasure?" ”

Sun Chengzong replied unhurriedly: "The Praetorian Guard has twenty-six guards and three battalions, and the twenty-six guards except for the Jinyi Guard, the other guards are not good at training all year round, and their armament is lax, which is not of great use. The three major battalions have been training outside the Beijing Division, but until the wartime, there was no commander in command. Please ask the emperor to decree that two generals will be in command of the five military camps and the Shenji battalion, and the Shenji battalion will be stationed in the imperial city as a deterrent, and the five military battalions will still be stationed outside the Beijing Division, and they will prepare secretly. ”

Zhu Cijiong has been a little blindsided in the past few days, and he was caught off guard by the sudden death of Ming Xizong, and he even forgot such an important thing as reusing the Qin generals. Now that Sun Chengzong has mentioned it, he naturally wants to take advantage of the situation to transfer Qin Liangyu's family.

Of course, he couldn't suddenly mention Qin Liangyu, he could only look at Sun Chengzong's plan first.

So, he asked again: "I don't know if Taifu has a suitable candidate." ”

Sun Chengzong naturally had a candidate, and he arched his hand and said: "The emperor, the former right capital Yushi, and the governor of Denglai, Yuan Keli, is old, and he can be ordered to supervise the five military camps." Yuan Chonghuan, the former governor of Liaodong, was loyal and brave, and he could be made to supervise the Shenji Battalion. Both of them resigned and returned to their hometowns because they were dissatisfied with Wei Zhongxian's control of the government and cronyism, and it was appropriate to use them to deal with Wei Zhongxian. ”

I really haven't heard of this Yuan Keli and Zhu Cijiong, but since he has more of a right-hand capital imperial history than Yuan Chonghuan, and he is respected by Sun Chengzong, it should be more powerful, and it is nothing to let him be the commander of the five military camps. But Zhu Cijiong of this magic machine camp wants Qin Liangyu to be in charge, and besides, this Yuan Chonghuan likes to be proud of his achievements, which is really not a good choice.

Zhu Cijiong's eyes rolled, and he pretended to be curious and asked, "Hasn't Yuan Chonghuan been defending the Jurchen Department in the north?" ”

Sun Chengzong was stunned when he heard this, yes, this Ningjin defense line can't be lost, Yuan Chonghuan is the most suitable guard, and he really can't be tied to the Beijing Division.

Taking advantage of Sun Chengzong's stunned opportunity, Zhu Cijiong pretended to be naïve and said: "I heard that Qin Liangyu is also very powerful, her family is loyal to our Daming, Taifu, what do you think of her?" ”

Sun Chengzong looked at Zhu Cijiong dumbfounded, who are you listening to!

However, since the emperor has already spoken, it is not good for him to refuse casually, and Qin Liangyu is also a rare good general, just because she is a woman, Sun Chengzong did not think of her.

Hearing Zhu Cijiong say this, he thought about it carefully, this Qin Liangyu is really quite suitable, she is a female general, and she can just paralyze the eunuch party, so he arched his hand and said: "But it is up to the emperor to decide." ”

Sun Chengzong and Zhu Cijiong you come and go endlessly, sitting next to Zhu Youzhen is extremely embarrassed, he is also the prince of the auxiliary government, and he doesn't even have a chance to speak. But the emperor didn't ask him, and he didn't want to interject, seeing that the two of them had finished discussing, he finally couldn't help but say: "Since it has been discussed, why don't we go to draft the decree now, and just go and review the backlog of recitals during this time." ”

If it is the emperor's power to make a holy decree, then this review is the emperor's obligation, and if you are an emperor, you can't escape it, and if you do, something will happen.

Like Ming Xizong, who is not good at reviewing the folds, he knows how to do carpenter work every day, and asks Wei Zhongxian to review the folds on his behalf, this will not be an accident, and the Ming Dynasty can be said to have died because of this!

Zhu Cijiong is not a Ming Xi sect, and he is still a little interested in the review and reciprocation. He hurriedly ate a few pieces of pastry, drank a few mouthfuls of porridge, and followed them to the imperial study of the Qianqing Palace.

Gu Zhu Youzhen said that it has been half a month since Ming Xizong was seriously ill, and the memoranda handed over by all parts of the country and the yamen of the Beijing Division has piled up, and if it is not dealt with, the entire Ming Dynasty will be paralyzed.

When I came to the imperial study, I saw that the folds were really piled up, the kang table, the kang table, the incense table, the long table, the semi-round table, the crescent table, as long as the place where the folds could be played, they were full of folds, and the little emperor Zhu Cijiong was so frightened that he almost didn't turn around and left. I'm only five years old, so many twists and turns, my little life is gone!

As a result, he misunderstood again, in fact, this batch of readings has nothing to do with him at all, at least not for now.

Ming Xizong left a letter to Wang Zhu Youzhen to assist the government, and appointed Sun Chengzong as the minister of Gu Ming, because he was too young to approve the recital, so he found two people to work for him.

During the Ming Dynasty, according to the statistics of later historians, there were about 200 pieces per day, and about 3,000 pieces in half a month. Of course, not all folds have to be approved immediately, and when the folds pass through the cabinet, the cabinet minister will write down the handling opinions on a piece of paper and paste them on the folds, which is called a vote. When the ticket is drafted, the cabinet will classify the folds, and when they are sent to the emperor, the ones that need to be dealt with urgently will be placed at the front alone.

The need to deal with emergencies is nothing more than disaster relief, payment of salaries and other things, and in half a month, there are only thirty or forty cases.

Zhu Cijiong is only five years old, not to mention the folding, he doesn't even need to write the holy decree, and the eunuch can write the holy decree for the emperor. This Bingbi eunuch is Cao Huachun, because the celebrant is basically Wei Zhongxian's person, and the prince's attendants are generally Bingbi eunuchs after the prince ascends the throne, anyway, there can be up to eight eunuchs in the ceremonial eunuch, so as soon as Zhu Cijiong ascended the throne, Cao Huachun was immediately promoted to the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch Bingbi. The other celebrant eunuchs went to rest first, and Zhu Cijiong made up his mind that only Cao Huachun would be used now.

This Cao Huachun is not like Wei Zhongxian who is illiterate, he entered the palace at the age of twelve or thirteen, under the cultivation of the eunuch Wang An, poetry, calligraphy and painting, all of which are fine, and it is naturally very simple for him to write two holy decrees.

Here, Cao Huachun finished writing the holy decree and handed it over to Zhu Youzhen and Sun Chengzong, and the two couldn't help but praise it, Zhu Cijiong took a fake look, and asked Cao Huachun to cover the jade seal and send someone to secretly announce the decree.

Because Zhu Cijiong is still young, he can't read it in person, so he can only let Cao Huachun read the content of the fold and the cabinet vote, and then Sun Chengzong and Zhu Youzhen discussed the handling opinions, and finally Zhu Cijiong nodded, and Zhu Youjian used a red pen to write the instructions on the fold, which is the so-called red, and then the eunuch Bingbi stamped the big seal on the emperor.

Zhu Cijiong's job is to sit there and listen or study, and when Zhu Youzhen and Sun Chengzong ask him for his opinion, he nods symbolically, which is considered to have been approved by him.

After more than an hour, the urgent matters were dealt with, and the next step was the appointment and dismissal of officials.

Most of these applications for appointment and dismissal of officials were handed over by the eunuch party, Cao Huachun frowned while reading, this eunuch party really doesn't know how to converge, the emperor has changed, and they are still as unscrupulous as before to install their own henchmen in the imperial court!

Zhu Cijiong probably heard that something was wrong, and before he could speak, Zhu Youzhen couldn't bear it anymore, he snorted: "Hmph, these eunuchs, do you think they can still do whatever they want?" ”

Sun Chengzong said indifferently: "This is just their temptation, Zhou Yingqiu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is known as the military advisor of the eunuch party, and he brought these people up to see our reaction." ”

Zhu Youzhen said angrily: "Why don't you give it all to them?" ”

Sun Chengzong shook his head and said, "No, it's all approved for them." ”

When Zhu Youzhen heard this, he couldn't believe his ears, he looked at Sun Chengzong stupidly and asked, "Why?" ”

Sun Chengzong patiently explained: "The eunuch party is powerful, we can't do it until we are completely sure, otherwise if they jump over the wall in a hurry, the emperor will be in danger." So now we have to be patient, we have to paralyze them, so that they think that we are a rat trap and dare not do anything. ”

Zhu Youzhen nodded knowingly and began to reply.

Sun Chengzong arched his hand to Zhu Cijiong again: "Your Majesty, please bear with me during this time, it is best to pretend to ignore the government and paralyze them." ”

Zhu Cijiong couldn't help but be secretly happy when he heard this: "If you ignore the government, then let me play?" I'm looking for Xu Guangqi to study the machine tool! ”

He has already thought about it, this research machine tool matter, it is best not to even Sun Chengzong and Zhu Youzhen do not know, now it is just right, since you want me to pretend to ignore the government, then start pretending immediately.

He climbed down directly from the kang and beckoned to Cao Huachun: "Anyway, the important recitals have been reviewed, and the rest of you can be approved slowly, and I will play." ”

After that, he led Cao Huachun out, leaving Zhu Youzhen and Sun Chengzong stunned.
