In front of the woman, Zhu Youxiao was knocked down again. studied the Heavenly Demon Dance well, and finally became Zhu Youxiao's party.

When "Baozhu ......" had breakfast, Zhu Youxiao saw Zhang Yan, and when he saw Zhang Yan, he remembered what he said yesterday, and Zhu Youxiao felt a little slapped in the face.

"The emperor is young and strong, and he pampers a few women, but Chang Lun, the emperor is not more mindful, but this day the demon dance should not be allowed to spread in the palace." Zhang Yan said softly.

"This matter really has nothing to do with the Heavenly Demon Dance, it can only be said that my willpower is weak, there may be countless Yanagishita Hui in this world, but I am a disciple, I eat in the bowl and look at the pot, with hundreds of concubines but still can't control myself in this regard, whether there is a Heavenly Demon Dance or not, I will definitely make mistakes in this, Baozhu, what do you think?" Zhu Youxiao explained.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is going to let people select a few women from the people to enter the palace to wait for the emperor."

"I just revised "Marriage", and now I choose women from the people to enter the palace, isn't this a slap in my face? If I do this, then the promulgation of the Marriage will be nullified. Zhu Youxiao flatly refused.

"The concubine just doesn't want the emperor to delay state affairs because he is addicted to the Heavenly Demon Dance." Zhang Yan said frankly.

"The Heavenly Demon Dance is really not as powerful as you say, I suggest that you can also practice the Heavenly Demon Dance, so that maybe you can understand what I said." Zhu Youxiao insisted.

"The concubine went to take a look." Zhang Yan said helplessly.

"Baozhu, I understand your hard work, you are a good queen, if you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for? But I also assure you that I have my own sense of proportion, and I will not let you down. Zhu Youxiao comforted.

In Dongying, Zheng Zhilong coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and the originally monolithic daimyo also loosened. Zheng Zhilong is now actively preparing for war and preparing to crusade against the shogunate, which is also spreading rumors that Wang Sai'er's son Yoshihito was not born to Emperor Masahito.

The current Emperor Masahito has been controlled by Wang Sai'er, although this rumor is true, Wang Sai'er will definitely not admit it, and she asked Emperor Masahito to personally come forward to confirm the identity of Liangren.

"Lord Zheng, when are you going to send troops here?" Wang Sai'er asked.

"Niangniang, it's not that the minister doesn't want to send troops, you know the situation in Kyushu, and now Kyushu's food and ammunition can't support such a big war." Zheng Zhilong explained.

"It's better to let me go back to the empire and ask Your Majesty to send troops directly to Dongying." Wang Sai'er said.

"Mother, this ...... That's not good! Zheng Zhilong knew that if Zhu Youxiao was willing to send troops, it would not be a problem to take the shogunate, but he was afraid that there would be a situation where it would be easy to invite the gods and difficult to send the gods.

"Does Prince Zheng have any doubts?" Wang Sai'er asked.

"In March next year, Kyushu will definitely send troops to attack the shogunate, what do you think?" Zheng Zhilong asked.

"Okay, but according to the agreement, after the shogunate is pacified, you will be appointed as the general of the expedition to take charge of the military power of the world, and other affairs must be returned to the emperor, and you must not regret this matter." Wang Sai'er said.

"Rest assured, the minister will never regret it." Zheng Zhilong swore an oath. Now that the Ming Dynasty is in full swing, Zheng Zhilong really doesn't dare to rebel, not to mention that he has unified Dongying, and it will take at least a few years to stabilize the situation in Dongying.

"And next year, no matter what the war is, I must go back to the empire." Wang Sai'er said.

"Next year, I'll send someone to escort Niang Niang to the Empire."

"Hmm." Wang Sai'er nodded. But she didn't actually plan to let the navy of Kyushu escort her, she had already relied on Dongchang's power in Dongying to contact Colonel Zhu You, and Wang Sai'er was ready to let the imperial navy come to Dongying to pick her up and take her back to the empire.

……

By October, Zhao Shujiao resigned from the post of Metropolitan Governor due to serious illness, and Hong Chengchou officially took over the post of Metropolitan Governor. And Wang Liqian was seriously ill almost at the same time.

"Wang Companion, have you ever felt better today." Upon learning of Wang Liqian's serious illness, Zhu Youxiao specially rushed to visit.

Hearing Zhu Youxiao shouting "companion", Wang Liqian seemed very excited, since the fourth year of the apocalypse, Zhu Youxiao has never called the eunuch "companion", "Your Majesty Xie cares!" It's a pity that the minister can no longer be loyal to His Majesty. ”

"I'm sure you'll be cured." Zhu Youxiao comforted.

"The minister is seventy and fifty this year......" Wang Liqian said softly.

"You can rest in peace, I will send the best doctor to treat you, and I will keep the position of the governor of the East Factory for you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty! I am afraid that the minister will no longer be able to continue to be qualified for the post of governor of Dongchang, and His Majesty should make plans as soon as possible. ”

"I know it in my heart. You can recuperate in peace. ”

Leaving Wang Liqian's residence, Zhu Youxiao asked, "How is Wang Liqian's condition?" ”

"I'm afraid I won't survive this month."

"Wang Liqian has been loyal to the empire for decades, and you should do your best to save it."

"No."

"Spread the decree, let Chen Si enter Beijing, and promote Heiyunlong to the governor of the Luzon Metropolitan Governor's Mansion." Zhu Youxiao made an order.

Zhu Youxiao prepared to make Chen Si the governor of Dongchang, which was the last step for Zhu Youxiao to abolish the eunuch system. When they heard that Zhu Youxiao transferred Chen Si to Beijing, many people in the court realized Zhu Youxiao's determination to abolish the eunuch system.

"Your Majesty, are you going to make Governor Chen the Governor of Dongchang?" Sun Chuanting asked.

"Exactly, I said that I would completely abolish the eunuch system, and I will definitely do it." Zhu Youxiao confessed.

"It's just that after Governor Chen is appointed as the Governor of Dongchang, who will manage Dongchang?"

"The East Factory is still only responsible to me, and that is not going to change. Moreover, in the Forbidden City in the future, the emperor's residence will only retain the six palaces in the east and west, the Qianqing Palace, the Kunning Palace and the palace back garden, and the rest of the places will be returned to the outer court. ”

Hearing Zhu Youxiao's explanation, Sun Chuanting was silent, for Zhu Youxiao's decision, from his heart, he was in favor, but he felt that Zhu Youxiao seemed to be a little harsh on the royal family.

Zhu Youxiao was already weakening the imperial power and expanding the power of the minister, that is, the power of the cabinet, which created the conditions for the abolition of the eunuch system. Zhu Youxiao knows that future generations cannot all be virtuous, so it is necessary to ensure from the system that even if there is a faint monarch, the country can operate as usual. And the monogamy legally recognized by the Ming Dynasty was strengthened in the hands of Zhu Youxiao, who even made clear regulations on the number of imperial concubines, which also created conditions for Zhu Youxiao to abolish the eunuch system.

Zhu Youxiao knew that one day the imperial power would fall, this was the trend of history, and it would never be because of Zhu Youxiao's arrival that the empire would always be in a feudal society, and capitalism would always come, it was only a matter of time.

Zhu Youxiao made a series of reforms to cater to this trend, and with Zhu Youxiao's support, the empire's capitalism sprouted many times faster than in history, and Zhu Youxiao predicted that the empire would definitely enter a capitalist society within one or two hundred years.
