Chapter Thirty-Nine: King Zhao (Seeking Push, Seeking Acceptance)
At the gate of King Yan's Mansion, as soon as Zhu Zhanji got off the horse, Li Qian, the eunuch of the metropolitan governor, greeted him and bowed. "Minister Li Qian pays a visit to His Highness."
For this Zhu Di's favored minister, Zhu Zhanji also treated him with courtesy. "Eunuch Li is exempt, although I was born in Beiping, I have never come back to see it after I left at the age of five, and I don't know much about Beiping. During my stay in Beiping, I will listen to your arrangement. β
The governor is responsible for the transfer, knowledge, and investigation of the palace supervisors, that is to say, as long as he is out of the house, most of the time, even the emperor listens to the arrangements of the governor.
Those who can serve as the eunuchs of the capital governor must be the emperor's most trusted confidants.
The seven eunuchs around Zhu Di, in addition to the inner palace eunuch Zheng He, and the ceremonial eunuch Wang Yan, are the most trusted by this Li Qian.
Li Qian said with a smile: "Your Highness is serious, and the old slave is just doing his job. The Yanwang Mansion is a small place, and after His Majesty moves in, it is difficult to arrange a clean courtyard for His Royal Highness. His Royal Highness King Zhao gave up the courtyard of King Zhao's mansion, where the scenery is elegant and has a unique charm of Tianfu. β
"Then I'm going to make a special trip to thank Uncle Zhao, lead the way."
Li Qian also asked the little eunuch to bring over a horse, and rode it neatly, and everyone started the Taisun honor guard and walked west from the Yanwang Mansion.
Li Qian, Zheng He and they all followed Zhu Di at the age of ten, and Zhu Di, who was only twenty years old at the time, personally taught them to learn literature and martial arts, and cultivated them like their own children.
Therefore, their group of eunuchs who have followed Zhu Di since the time of Yan Wangfu are all civil and military, and they are also loyal to Zhu Di.
Because Zhu Di canceled the relocation of the capital, the original Yanwang Mansion was not repaired or expanded, that is, there was no longer the magnificent Northern Forbidden City in later generations.
King Zhao was in Beiping and was not arranged in the original Yanwang Mansion. Instead, the Zhao Wangfu was rebuilt on the west side of the Yanwang Mansion, and the Yanwang Mansion was retained and became the place of the line.
And the courtyard of Zhao Wangfu is the center of the famous place in later generations, because it is built by Zhonghai, so it does have a little Jiangnan charm.
Six hundred years later, Zhou Youyi has also visited here a few times. But across 600 years, the scenery in front of you is very different, giving people a sense of nothingness.
Zhu Zhanji shook his head, dispelling the trace of negative thoughts in his heart.
He has never been a literati, he doesn't have so many feelings, and he doesn't want to think too much about those illusory things, and it is what he should do to firmly grasp the reality in front of him.
This annex should be the back garden of King Zhao's mansion, there are not many buildings, but the scenery is beautiful. It's just mid-February, and most of the trees are just sprouting, which makes the view diminished.
Although there are not many houses in the courtyard, Zhu Zhanji and the people around him are less than 100 people, and they will still be able to live in them all.
After settling down, Li Qian handed Zhu Zhanji a list. "Your Highness, the rules for your food, clothing, housing and transportation during this time in Peking have been arranged, and before the first day of the first month of March, you have half a month to repair here in the capital. If you want to go out for a walk, please bring a little more entourage, there are many soldiers in Beiping recently, they are all rough people, if you collide with Your Highness, it will be a dereliction of duty for the old slave. β
Zhu Zhanji knew Li Qian's worries, Beiping originally had less than 200,000 people, but suddenly there were 300,000 or 400,000 soldiers and hundreds of thousands of people, and now it was overcrowded everywhere.
Most of those sergeants are also some domineering people, if Zhu Zhanji didn't show the Taisun honor guard, and came out on patrol in micro-clothes, it would not be good if there was a conflict.
"Eunuch Li, don't worry, although I want to see the scenery of the north, I also know that Beiping has been a big military camp recently, and everything will be cautious. Does the imperial grandfather have any other arrangements today? β
"Your Majesty will be repaired today, and tomorrow will hold a grand court meeting, and you will also meet with the soldiers of all ministries. Tomorrow night at the feast, Your Highness, please be ready. β
Zhu Zhanji handed the itinerary to Li Liang. "Li Liang, my itinerary will be arranged by you, don't forget to remind me if you have anything. By the way, I will hand over the post to Uncle Zhao Wang first, and when I come to Beiping, I should go to meet him. β
In addition to Li Qian being in charge of Zhu Di's itinerary, most of the civil and military ministers of the imperial court who came from Nanjing also needed him to bother to settle and establish a smooth communication system, so naturally he could not stay here with Zhu Zhanji all the time.
He explained to Li Liang some of Zhu Zhanji's living arrangements during this period, and then said goodbye to Zhu Zhanji, who sent him to the gate of the other courtyard, and then turned back to the main hall of the other courtyard.
The four girls of Fenghua Xueyue held back on the boat for nearly a month, and finally got off the boat at this time, and they couldn't stand on their feet with weak legs.
Especially in the winter snow, she was a little seasick, and she finally got used to it on the boat, but now that she is on land, she is starting to get dizzy again.
After getting out of the carriage, she couldn't walk steadily, which made her cry in fright, thinking that her life was short.
Zhu Zhanji couldn't help laughing when he saw her crying.
Zhu Zhanji has seen a lot of things like dizziness in modern times. In particular, those crew members who have been active on the sea for a long time will stay on the ship for several months, and after going ashore, they will not be able to walk steadily, and it will take several days to get used to it.
After relieving Dongxue, Zhu Zhanji returned to the middle hall, except for the sergeant on duty of Yulinwei, everyone else was waiting in the hall.
"Yang Qianhu, you take two Yu Linwei entourages to inquire where my young army is now and what the situation is, and let Zhang Fengshan come to see me."
"Feng Qianhu, Jiang Qianhu, Chu Qianhu, the three of you contact the Jinyi Wei Headquarters. I need to know the details of the current Beiping and the soldiers of the Northern Expedition, and the three of you need to help me sort out the information of all the generals above the commander. β
"Mr. Xu Qian, Mr. Han, my safety in Beiping will be handed over to you. After I go down, contact Zhao Yongliang, and I will see him in the evening. β
Everyone responded, only Li Liang went to help Zhu Zhanji deliver the post to Zhu Gaosui. On the eunuch system, the dragons are leaderless, and Zhu Zhanji originally wanted them to contact Zhao Wangfu, the eunuchs in the office, and establish a set of information channels......
He looked at the remaining eunuch leaders, evaluated the advantages and disadvantages of several people, and said: "You will work hard, and when you return to Beijing from this northern expedition, I will promote a young eunuch and a long-term follower from among you." β
"Yes!"
One of them, Feng Yu named Yang Lin, boldly asked: "Your Highness, the servants and others are all related to Your Highness in this life, and they should exist according to Your Highness's wishes." β
Zhu Zhanji nodded and said: "Beiping is not familiar with the place, so you should establish a complete set of information channels between the Zhao Wangfu and the office." Don't make me a deaf, blind man. β
Yang Lin immediately knelt down and said, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, the ministers should do their best!" β
After sending everyone away, Zhu Zhanji went back to the room and washed his face under the service of the spring breeze and Xia Hua.
According to himself in the bronze mirror, there is only a short layer of fluff on his sixteen-year-old face, and if he wants to keep the mountain-shaped beard of his previous life, it will take at least four years.
In the Ming Dynasty, regardless of whether it was a civil servant or a military attachΓ©, whether an emperor or a farmer, all of them had beards. Wenchen generally has a goatee, but the military generals are mainly bearded, and they are neglected, and they look extremely greasy.
Many times, Zhu Zhanji wondered if their beards would get into their rice bowls.
He can't control others, anyway, he will definitely keep the beard type of his previous life. When he becomes the emperor, when the time comes, he, the emperor, will also lead the aesthetic concept of the new generation.
"Your Royal Highness, His Royal Highness King Zhao has prepared food and wine and is waiting for His Highness to come."
Zhu Zhanji replied and said to Qiu Yue: "Help me change my clothes, Li Daban, prepare all the gifts I brought to Uncle Zhao from the capital." β
"Yes!"
The area of the Imperial Palace of Yingtianfu is one million square meters, while the regulation of the Prince's Palace is one-third, that is, 330,000 square meters.
The Zhao Wangfu was built in strict accordance with the regulations of the Prince's Mansion, and in terms of area, it was not as large as the original Yan Wangfu that was changed to the line.
But 330,000 square meters, this area is amazing enough for ordinary people.
Because it was only from the back door to the front door, Zhu Zhanji did not ride a horse, otherwise, after a short distance, he would have to find a place to place the horse after arriving.
Although Zhu Zhanji is the grandson, he is a nephew, and Zhu Zhanji himself has not understood who is older than the grandson and the prince.
In the long run, the prince is of course a greater candidate for the emperor, but the prince is second only to the crown prince, so the prince of the vassal is not necessarily weaker than the prince.
Zhu Zhanji only took advantage of Zhu Di's favor, so now he is a little louder, but it is not necessarily as big as the prince.
Zhu Gaosui did not go out of the door, but waited at the second gate, and his wife and concubine were standing next to him.
The original Princess Zhao was the daughter of Xu Zhang, but she was married for seven years without children and was abolished.
Today's Princess Zhao is the daughter of Mu Sheng, who gave birth to a son before she was made a princess, and then gave birth to another son, stabilizing the position of the princess.
The Mu family and the Zhu family have deep roots, Mu Ying is Zhu Yuanzhang's godson, the son married the princess, and the granddaughter also married the princess.
In particular, the Mu family guarded Yunnan for generations and guarded the south gate for the Ming Dynasty until the fall of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Zhanji has a good impression of the Mu family, and he also has a good impression of this aunt, so this time, he not only brought gifts to her, but also brought gifts to her two children.
It's just that Zhu Zhanku, the eldest son of King Zhao, doesn't seem to be in good health, and now he is three years old, but he doesn't have any liveliness and is sick.
However, the second son Zhu Zhanyuan was just two years old, but he was white and fat, and he couldn't settle down for a moment.
It's just that Zhu Zhanji's impression of King Zhao's branch is very vague, and he only knows that he has no courage to rebel. The descendants were sealed to Zhangde Mansion, that is, Anyang in later generations, until the end of the Ming Dynasty.
This Wang Shuwen can't compare to Zhu Gaochi, and his martial arts can't compare to Zhu Gaoxu, and his sense of presence among the three brothers has never been strong.
However, since he already knew that he had the intention to rebel, but he had no courage to rebel, and now he was a target that could be wooed, of course Zhu Zhanji would not let go of this opportunity to knock and woo him.
The best result is to let him not follow Zhu Gaoxu to mess around, which can also make him less guilty in the future, and save him from being recorded in the small history book by those literati.
