Dingguo Mansion. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

With the joint letter of Zhu Changluo and Shi Xing and others, the content of the peace talks between the Ming Dynasty and the Japanese State was also made public, and as expected, the courtiers had many dissatisfaction with this peace treaty, especially focusing on the article of sending a reserve Japanese army.

Most courtiers believed that sending troops to prepare for the Japanese army would cost a lot of money, and the treasury would not be able to make ends meet, not to mention that placing the army in other countries would go against the way of a gentleman and not be the style of a Ming dynasty.

Together, Zhu Changluo still sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, but Shi Xing and the others were in a hurry, and ran to Ciqing Palace several times to ask Zhu Changluo for advice, but unfortunately, they only got the four words of peace of mind.

At the same time, Zhu Changluo came to the Dingguo Mansion on the prince's carriage.

"Minister Xu Wenbi see His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Goodbye to this Dingguo Gong, his expression is obviously much better than the last time.

A few days ago, Zuodu Imperial Shi Zhenji returned to Beijing, and in the name of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Criminal Department, he officially proposed to the imperial court to investigate and deal with Ma Rong and Mei Chun according to the law, which really set off a lot of waves in the imperial court.

In the Yangzhou case, the final result was that a cabinet minister was disgraced, two feudal officials were dismissed from their posts and investigated, and a majestic Wei Duke Xu Hongji was also involved, which can be said to be the first major case in recent years.

Of course, none of this is important to Xu Wenbi, even Xu Hongji, who he focused on defending at the beginning, became indifferent after Zhu Changluo's quid pro quo was proposed.

After Xu Hongji was investigated, the emperor decreed that the position of the Duke of Wei could not be inherited by no one, and that there was no male in the lineage of the King of Zhongshan, so the Ministry of Rites selected those with pure blood and both civil and military to inherit the position of the Duke of Wei from the generation of the Xu family.

Although nominally speaking, all branches of the Xu family have opportunities, but when it comes to power, how can the forces of other branches compare to the Dingguo Mansion?

said that Xu Wenbi prefers the young son, it is really not a rumor, this time in order to give the young son a future, Xu Wenbi can be regarded as desperate, and almost used all the relationships that can be used, so that Xu Hongwu's name appeared in front of the emperor.

At this point, it is basically a certainty, although there are three candidates, but Xu Wenbi has been running the most diligently in the palace in the past few days, and presumably the emperor will not save his face.

"Xu Guogong, I came to the palace today, I want Xu Guogong to help with something!"

In the lobby, they were seated, and Zhu Changluo did not beat around the bush and spoke directly.

"Your Highness has something to say, just command, as long as the minister can do it, he will definitely go to the soup to fight the fire!"

Xu Wenbi was simply and agreed without even asking about things.

Because of this incident, he can be regarded as receiving Zhu Changluo's favor, if the conversation that day was a transaction, then Xu Hongwu's ability to take the position is the result of Zhu Changluo's help.

Don't forget, today's Ministry of Rites is still the book, but Zhu Changluo's teacher Li Tingji.

If it weren't for his nod, no matter how hard Xu Wenbi put in the effort, it would be in vain!

What's more, there has never been an eternal enemy in this world, Zhu Changluo is the prince, the future emperor, the Ming Dynasty has been hundreds of years, and there is no abolished prince, Xu Wenbi should be close to him.

"Xu Guogong's words are serious, there are two things in this palace, one is because of the preparation of the Japanese army, a few days ago, the father and the emperor handed over this matter to the palace, fortunately, the palace and the Japanese have signed a contract, which stipulates that I will send the Japanese army to the Japanese country, I don't know if the national prince knows about this?"

Zhu Changluo smiled, but turned the topic to business.

Xu Wenbi was slightly stunned, a little confused.

He naturally knew about this matter, there was such a big uproar in the court, and he was not deaf or blind, how could he not know?

But what does this have to do with him? Could it be that he should be able to settle those civil servants?

Xu Wenbi himself knows his own strength, and he still has some influence in the Xun Qi family, but if he wants to go to the court to fight with these Wenchens, he is powerless, after all, he is no longer the majestic governor of the Chinese army.

He said with a wry smile at the moment.

"Your Highness, if Your Highness wants to ask the ministers to help persuade those ministers in the court, I'm afraid that they have found the wrong people, those people are very stubborn, and the ministers are still useful in talking among the relatives, but I am afraid that they will not be able to help Your Highness when they reach the court!"

It's not that Xu Wenbi deliberately didn't help, but it is true, especially after this incident of Wei Guogong, in order to win this position for his young son, Xu Wenbi used up the connections and feelings left in the court in order to suppress the opposition among the courtiers, and he was really powerless!

However, Zhu Changluo shook his head and said with a smile.

"Xu Guogong rest assured, this palace will not be difficult for others, but this palace is here to give Xu Guogong a big gift!"

"Oh? I would like to hear about it! ”

Xu Wenbi looked suspicious and asked.

"Don't hide it from Xu Guogong, this palace is indeed here to prepare for the Japanese army, but it is not for Xu Guogong to go to the court to argue with the ministers, but to ask Xu Guogong to help and select children from among the relatives of various families to enrich the preparation of the Japanese army!"

"What? Your Highness wants to directly form a reserve army? But the DPRK and China ......"

Xu Wenbi was taken aback, and his brows furrowed tightly.

"The affairs of the court, Xu Guogong don't have to worry, the palace has its own way!"

Zhu Changluo waved his hand and said with a straight face.

"The palace knows that among the Beijing divisions, all the lords and relatives have both talent and learning, both civil and military, especially the majority of concubines, they can not inherit the title, and it is difficult to enter the office, so they are becoming more and more depressed, Zhangtai is gone, the palace is forming a reserve army, it is an opportunity to wait! The palace wants to ask Xu Guogong to come forward, gather all the family relatives, send their children to join the preparation of the Japanese army, the palace can allow them to bring their own guards to join, for a period of three years, at the end of the three years, the palace will ask the father to ask for an order, the preparation of the Japanese army to guard the soldiers of the merit into the 26th guard! ”

"Twenty-six guards? Is what Your Highness said true? ”

Xu Wenbi was really shocked this time, you must know that the 26th guard of Shangzhi is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and the selection is very strict, all of them are drawn from the elite soldiers from all over the country, and like those sons and daughters of the Xun Qi who are sparse in civil and military affairs, don't even think about it.

And this time, Xu Wenbi also heard the establishment of the Japanese army, just to find a place for the sons and daughters of the various families to toss around, but for this reason, Zhu Changluo even took out the quota of the 26th guard, which is not a big deal!

"No lie!"

Zhu Changluo said lightly.

"Yes...... Your Royal Highness, forgive the ministers for asking more, the children of Xun Qi were born in families, and most of them did not obey discipline, His Royal Highness filled all the children of Xun Qi into the reserve army, that ......"

Xu Wenbi's tone was slightly worried.

In the final analysis, the establishment of the Japanese army is not a playhouse, not only to give the children of Xun Qi a place to go, but also to prevent the resurgence of the Japanese country.

"Xu Guogong rest assured, the palace will fill all the troops of the former Shou Wangfu Guards and Command Envoys into the reserve army, as the backbone of the preparation army, if there is a disobedience to the discipline, it should be sent back to the Beijing Division!"

But how could Zhu Changluo not think of this, as soon as Xu Wenbi mentioned it, he opened his mouth and replied.
