Text Chapter 546 The Palace's Speech

Qian Sunai followed the little eunuch Shuangxi to the East Palace, the East Palace is in the northeast corner of the imperial city, not too far from the Wenhua Hall where Zhu Hongsan works, in fact, the Wenhua Hall is part of the East Palace complex, which was originally used as a place for the prince to study. However, because the three major halls were damaged to varying degrees, and the Qianqing Palace was also plagued by the Manchu Qing garrison of the Eight Banners, the Wuying Hall also had to store the portrait of Zhu Yuanzhang. There was no way, Zhu Hongsan had no choice but to use the Wenhua Palace, which was still complete, as his office location.

Qian Sunai came to the gate of Qingning Palace, the actual dormitory of Prince Zhu Hai, and saw five corpses on the ground, and there were two brocade guards standing guard on the side, which seemed to be violent corpses.

Qian Sunai stood in the distance and didn't see who those five people were, so she pulled Shuangxi and asked, "Shuangxi, what's wrong with those people?" ”

Shuangxi shuddered when he heard Qian Sunai's question, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Qian, those people arranged the royal secrets behind their backs, and they were beaten to death outside the gate of the East Palace by the emperor's order. As soon as Shuangxi finished speaking, he saw Li Mi coming out of the palace, and he was so frightened that he quickly stopped talking.

Qian Sunai saw a eunuch in his twenties coming out of it, and recognized it at a glance, isn't this the Li Mi who went to Wuchang to preach the decree? How did he get here?

Qian Sunai stepped forward and arched his hand: "It turned out to be Gonggong Li, but I didn't expect that we would meet again less than a day after getting off the boat!" ”

Li Mi looked at Qian Sunai with a calm face and did not speak, but asked Shuangxi: "Shuangxi, why did you lead outsiders into the imperial city?" ”

Shuangxi is just a child of twelve or thirteen, plus seeing Huang Gou'er and others being killed in the morning, he was already scared of the six gods, and now he heard Li Mi's bad words and quickly knelt down and said: "Father-in-law Li, Mr. Qian was invited by the master!" ”

"Is there a waist card or a warrant from the prince?"

Your mother, Lao Tzu was caught in the palace by Zhu Luo, so what kind of warrant waist card is there?

Qian Sunai was angry when he saw Li Mi holding the chicken feather as an arrow here, but he didn't show it on the surface, but said with a smile: "Gonggong Li, just now in the Wenhua Palace, His Majesty personally said that he asked the palace guards to invite Qian Mou into the palace, didn't Gonggong Li hear it?" After Qian Sunai finished speaking, he ignored Li Mi, pulled up Shuangxi and walked into Qingning Palace.

Li Mi looked at Qian Sunai and couldn't do anything about it, he didn't dare to ask the emperor to order him, and he didn't dare to stop Qian Sunai, although Qian Ge Lao had no status in the cabinet, but the son of the Qian family was not a eunuch he said he could bully, not to mention that Qian Sunai's sister was still a concubine. Li Mi watched Qian Sunai enter Qingning Palace, and hurriedly made a secret note in his heart, preparing to report to his godfather, Li Chengen, when he had time.

Although Qingning Palace is a palace, it is not a building, but a collective name for five or six buildings. This place is similar to other palaces in the palace, there is a lot of damage, and Zhu Hai lives in an empty room that was temporarily cleaned up in the palace.

Zhu Hai was very happy to see Qian Sunai coming, and quickly stood up and pulled Qian Sunai to sit down.

"Mr. Qian, that sister in this palace is rude and willful, she never hurt Mr.!"

"Let Your Highness bother, the princess is very good to the minister, and she didn't hurt me!"

Zhu Hai looked at Qian Sunai, who was covered in dust, and knew that what he said was not the truth, he didn't know what his sister's personality was, it seemed that Qian Sunai had suffered a lot!

"Mr. Qian, the palace was not in the palace at that time, after knowing the news, my sister has arrested Mr. Qian into the palace, and the palace is afraid that if I interfere in it, it will cause bad results, so I didn't go to ask my father, Mr. Qian suffered!" "Your Highness, you

That's right, it's not good if you make a move, and now His Majesty the Emperor just treats this matter as a princess's willful nonsense, which is good! ”

Seeing that Qian Sunai did not complain about himself, Zhu Hai breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did he remember the purpose of looking for Qian Sunai.

"Mr. Qian, you gave the palace an idea, and now the eunuch in charge here in the East Palace has been replaced by Li Chengen's godson Li Yu, what can I do?"

Qian Sunai already knew why Zhu Hai called him, but now when he heard Zhu Hai ask about Qian Sunai, he smiled and said, "Your Highness, this is simple." I don't know if His Royal Highness knows about the time when Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were competing for the throne, Yang Xiu's strategy for Cao Zhi was to win with literature, and Wu Zhen gave Cao Pi to win with family affection. Regardless of the effect of these two methods, in the end, Cao Pi ascended to the throne of the crown prince. Your Highness should also learn from Cao Pi now, be kind to others, loyal and filial to Your Majesty, and love your brothers! ”

Qian Sunai understands all these things Zhu Hai said, but Li Mi is Li Chengen's person, can he listen to himself?

"But Mr. Qian, that Li Mi is Li Chengen's godson, he must be here to spy on the palace, Huairou's methods may not work!"

"Your Highness, a moment is Huairou, only with your heart all the year round, can you show the benevolence of Your Highness. People's hearts are flesh and blood, there is no hatred for no reason and no love for no reason, this means seems to be time-consuming and laborious, but it can often have a big effect at critical moments! ”

Zhu Hai listened to Qian Sunai's oath, and nodded suspiciously.

The two discussed some other things, it was getting late, and Qian Sunai would lock the palace gate if he didn't leave the palace again, so Qian Sunai said goodbye and left.

Qian Sunai walked out of the palace gate of Qingning Palace, and saw Li Mi standing at the door.

Qian Sunai stepped forward and smiled: "It turned out to be Gonggong Li, congratulations to Gonggong Li on his promotion to the chief eunuch of the East Palace!" ”

Li Yupi said with a smile: "Our family thanks Mr. Qian!" It seems that Mr. Qian and the master are not far away, and they have been chatting for so long! ”

Qian Sunai knew that Li Mi was using his own words at this time, and deliberately pretended to be very mysterious and said: "Gonggong Li, this is natural, you think that the crown prince is the next emperor, and it will be too late if you don't maintain this relationship now!" ”

Qian Sunai was stunned when he saw Li Yu, knowing that he had listened, and then said: "But Qian and Gonggong Li can't be compared, Gonggong Li is now the prince's neighbor, and after the prince ascends the throne, isn't a prince like Gonggong Li rising?" At that time, Qian will still need more care from Father-in-law Li! ”

After Qian Sunai finished speaking, he arched his hand and walked away, leaving Li Mi to stand at the door alone thoughtfully.

That's right! His backstage is his godfather Li Chengen, but how can there be a prince in this backstage, the prince is the future emperor, if he is evil, the future prospects of the prince are not good, after all, he is only in his twenties now, and there are still a lot of years waiting for him.

Thinking of this, Li Mi felt that he had gone too far with the prince, although the godfather let him spy on the prince, but he must have some numbers in his heart.

Should I say that Qian Sunai really said that Li Mi went in his heart, for more than 270 years in the Ming Dynasty, except for Zhu Di who ascended the throne by improper means, all other emperors were basically princes, and those who were not princes were also the eldest sons, and the Ming Dynasty did not have the Qing Dynasty's system of opening a prince's mansion, so Qian Sunai used Zhu Hai's identity to pull the tiger and pull the banner very well to bluff people.

The next morning, Zhu Hongsan got up, first served by Bian Yujing for breakfast, and then went to Wenhuadian's own office to start processing official documents.

As soon as Zhu Hongsan's frame arrived at the Wenhua Palace, he saw that the prince was already waiting at the door.

Zhu Hongsan was stunned when he saw his son, the order he gave him was to rest for a few days, and then come to listen to politics and study after the festival, but he didn't expect to come today!

"Prince, what's the matter with today!"

"Father, my son doesn't need to rest, my son wants to follow his father to learn how to deal with government affairs today, so that he can share his father's worries!"

Zhu Hongsan nodded, appreciating Zhu Hai's sensibility.

"Okay, let's start today, it just so happens that there are a few officials today, and you can see them too!" The palace speech is a system of selection of officials in ancient China, and the new officials above the prefect must go to Beijing to meet the emperor and listen to the emperor's teachings, which is called the palace speech. However, in the Ming Dynasty, except for a few emperors who could achieve the prefect's level of palace resignation, many other emperors did not talk about the prefect, even the cabinet elders were gone. You must know that according to incomplete statistics from later generations, the Ming Dynasty had a total of 140 prefectures, 193 prefectures, 1,138 counties, 493 guards, 395 offices, and nearly 400 state capitals. Therefore, in the Qing Dynasty, the function of the palace was excessively given to the cabinet, and there was a cabinet resignation at the prefecture level, and the emperor's palace resignation at the governor level, but this workload was not small.

The first thing I want to see today is Ma Jiyuan, the governor of Liangjiang, the boss of the Ma family received a decree from the Military Aircraft Department yesterday, and he will leave today, after all, the order given by the emperor is to take Yangzhou before the fifteenth day of the first month, and the time is tight and the task is heavy!

Prince Zhu Hai has not seen Ma Jiyuan for many years, Ma Boss eats bananas in Luzon all the year round, and just came back Zhu Hai went to Wuchang again, this is the first time the two have met in five years.

Zhu Hai saw Ma Jiyuan's tall figure appear at the door, wearing the emperor's imperial python robe, wearing a black gauze official hat, a jade belt around his waist, thick-soled official boots on his feet, and holding an ivory wat board in his left hand.

Ma Jiyuan walked in and glanced at Zhu Hai, but he didn't expect the prince to be there today, and then bowed down to give Zhu Hongsan a salute.

"Ma Jiyuan, the governor of Liangjiang, greets His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Prince!"

This is not an official meeting, it is very cumbersome for officials to see the emperor in ancient times, and there are people who have to drink their names on the side, that is, to ask questions on behalf of the emperor. But now it's only in the emperor's study, so I don't pay attention to it.

"The eldest brother is here, and the prince won't give you a gift to your uncle!"

After hearing Zhu Hongsan's order, Zhu Hai hurriedly walked in front of Ma Jiyuan and bowed down and said, "Uncle hasn't seen you for many years, and my nephew has saluted my uncle!" ”

Zhu Hai is the prince, and Mr. Ma Jiyuan, a Taoist gentleman, can let Zhu Hai salute him.

Ma Jiyuan hurriedly picked up the prince and said, "Yes! I haven't seen the prince for five years, and the prince has grown taller! More and more heroic! ”

The prince was in a very complicated mood when he saw Ma Jiyuan like this, after all, his second brother made it clear that the carriage and horses wanted to fight with him, so the attitude of Ma Jiyuan, as the second brother's grandfather, was very important, but Zhu Hai got the news that Ma Jiyuan did not support Zhu Jiang to come out and compete with him, so Zhu Hai couldn't figure out whose side Ma Jiyuan was on.
