Just when the sun had turned into a big red ball and was sinking down at a slow speed, Zhu Cihong was standing beside Princess Changping in the Duanjing Palace, teaching this girl to write and imitate.

His words are now very famous in the palace, so he is qualified to teach the princess.

To be honest, it's not an excuse to ask for advice, and it's not very convenient for the princess to come over, after all, they are all adults, and the etiquette is very defensive, and it is not good for brothers and sisters to meet often.

Normally, except for Chongzhen and Zhou Hou, no one will come to his palace without anything, and these two are in charge of state affairs, and the other is in charge of the sixth palace, they are all busy people who are so busy that they fly, as long as Zhu Cihong calms down every morning and dusk and happily shows up in front of them, no one will trouble him.

As for his homework and internal work, he also proceeded in an orderly manner according to the predetermined schedule. Among the speakers of the East Palace, Wang Duo was sent back to Jiangnan by him, and this person may have played a greater role in Nanjing than staying in Beijing.

As for Wu Weiye and others, after a few temptations, they knew that they were useless people who talked about it...... But it is enough to stay by your side and use it as a cover.

After several twists and turns, the crown prince had already obediently trained Xiao Wu, especially when Wu Weiye saw the overall situation clearly and planned to flee south, but he was exposed by Zhu Cihong in front of him, and he broke his mind in one word.

At that time, Wu Weiye's face was red and white, and he couldn't return to color for a long time.

Scholars must have the idea of loyalty and respect for the king, and it is naturally embarrassing to be recognized, especially by the king...... This incident is an unforgivable stain on Wu Weiye, so in terms of helping the crown prince's homework to cover up, Wu Da Poet can be regarded as doing a good job......

So on Chongzhen's side, the crown prince's East Palace was as usual and quiet. Zhu Cihong's handwriting is getting better and better, and he has heard that he has also practiced well, although he did not have the amazing performance of the Qianqing Palace on that night, but the eldest son is always growing up, occasionally the father and son talk about government affairs, Zhu Cihong's answer is also very to Chongzhen's mind, so at the end of the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, the crown prince Zhu Cihong's position in the inner court is becoming more and more stable, and even his reputation has spread outside the inner court, and the original historical track has not been restored, except for the name and the end, there is almost nothing to teach people to mention.

At least, in this time and space, the crown prince already has an evaluation of "heroic and intelligent".

But in private, Zhu Cihong did even more impressively!

There are more than 20 relatives of the emperor who have plundered, and there is still no movement on the face of Jingshiming. The Jin Shang Fan family was personally done by him, and several others were also present to command, but more of them were just handed over to his subordinates, and he sat in the rear, through the reactions and attitudes of all parties, as well as the process of these subordinates, and the combing and sorting of various news and information from inquired...... In short, after summarizing, it is up to him to analyze the implications, whether the danger of the matter has increased, and to what extent it will cause a backlash...... In addition, the distribution of rewards and gold and silver for subordinates, negotiating with the War Bureau to build armor and stomach weapons, and sending people to buy war horses outside the mouth, and building Tibetan horses, Tibetan soldiers, and food points outside the city and in several places...... These things are extremely complicated and difficult, and there are many times when Zhu Cihong had to instruct Li Jiye to ask Wang Chengen, and then issue instructions from the palace, so that things can be done.

Several times, Wang Chengen has begun to find out what the young master is doing, and he is paying attention to the movements in the East Palace, and even there are signs of instability inside...... In short, the looting of the past month has reached this level, and it should be possible to stop!

As for remembering the harvest...... The corners of Zhu Cihong's mouth also showed a smile, so obvious that even Princess Changping, who was beside him, noticed it, the girl blinked her beautiful eyes, and asked Zhu Cihong, "What's wrong?" What's so much fun? ”

Under Zhu Cihong's teaching, she has written a piece of paper, and it can be seen that the princess is also very smart and has made obvious progress.

Royal girls, of course, have more technical training than outside, in addition to the study of female red, of course, they also have to read and learn words, but the requirements are not high.

"Hehe, I remembered something very funny, so I smiled."

"What's the matter?"

"Don't ask about the girls' families......" Zhu Cihong rubbed the princess's head vigorously, and the little girl rolled her eyes.

"Come, this silver box is for you, and the gold jewelry in it is not bad, pick it up and wear it!"

"Brother, where did you get so much silver?"

Changping was puzzled and asked: "My father can't eat the food that I have been worried about recently, oops, I went to the Qianqing Palace to ask for peace, and the eunuchs in the palace were scared to death......

"Father, that is a state affair, and the silver he wants is more than a million, and my silver box is only a few dollars, so I prefer you to talk so much!"

Saying this, Changping relieved his doubts, looked at the silver jewelry box happily, opened it by himself, and began to look at the ornaments inside.

To be honest, feelings are weak in the royal family, and even more so between brothers. The princes all live in the south of the three houses, and they have palace eunuchs to serve and live, read and learn words, and usually meet once in the morning and evening, and they will not meet when they are idle. When you become a vassal country, you won't see it for the rest of your life.

However, the prince and the princess can be common in the future, and the relationship will be better.

Zhu Cihong also loves this girl very much, and it is difficult for him to really have feelings between father and son for Chongzhen, and for the brothers, it is just a concession, and there is no true affection. Only for Zhou Hou, Changping and Zhaoren, there is still some real family affection.

If people live in the world, if there is no family sustenance at all...... It was horrible.

"Master......" The two brothers and sisters were discussing these jewelry, Li Jiye coughed lightly outside the hall, and when he saw Zhu Cihong turning around, he said softly: "The slave has something to go back." ”

"Okay, I got it."

Zhu Cihong hurried out, nodded to Li Jiye, and said, "Say it." ”

"Yes, according to the master's orders, the slave and maid used a few pieces of horseshoe gold to buy off a close attendant next to the emperor......"

There must be ears to report to God by Chongzhen's side, which should also mean in the title, although the emperor and the prince are father and son, they are also monarchs and ministers. Although the lack of family affection in the heavenly family is not so serious in Daming, but a few decades ago, Wanli was still thinking about changing people, of course Chongzhen did not have this idea, but what happened around the emperor was also an important source of information for Zhu Cihong here.

Fortunately, it is easy to do things when you have money, Li Jiye and others first ate the prince's imperial reward, and their loyalty increased greatly, and now they are assigned to do things, and Zhu Cihong has a lot of peace of mind.

Of course, the source of the money is absolutely secret, and he uses his subordinates separately, and he is not allowed to make friends. So, to the greatest extent, I still ensured my own safety.

At today's cabinet meeting, Zhu Cihong did not find it strange that Chongzhen failed to solicit donations from civilian officials. It is an unshakable fact that the imperial power is declining step by step in the hands of Chongzhen, because Chongzhen is the representative of the orthodox imperial power, the civil officials have nothing to say at least on the surface, and many people are indeed more loyal to Chongzhen.

As soon as Chongzhen died, the reason why the Ming Dynasty couldn't even rule by dividing the river was because of the decline of imperial power.

Although King Fu inherited the throne, except for Ma Shiying and his party, Nanming did not regard him as an emperor who could be pinned on loyalty.

Huang Zongxi and other Donglin party members never recognized the orthodox surname of King Fu, and even these people secretly colluded with the warlords and tried to use the method of mutiny, either to step down King Fu or to take over the real power.

The Qing army has already attacked in the Huaiyang area, and the Ming army is still fighting each other, if the Ming civil officials and gentry take the imperial power seriously, how can it be so?

"Okay, I got it."

But the conversation between Chen Yan and Wei Dezao after they quit the cabinet was just funny.

Because of their anger, the two elders were ready to instruct Jinyiwei to investigate the case, so their voices were very high...... So the essence of the content is heard clearly.

Li Jiye didn't know much about the seriousness of this matter, so he just relayed it honestly, and seeing that Zhu Cihong didn't have any further expression, he bowed down and stepped back.

"Come," Zhu Cihong's face was displeased, he thought about it, and ordered: "Come on." ”

"The slave has seen the master."

Qiu Zhizhong hurriedly arrived, and after bowing, he stood below, and Zhu Cihong asked him, "Is there any abnormality in the past few days?" ”

"Go back to the master," Qiu Zhizhong thought for a while and replied, "There are two things that are about to be reported. ”

"Speak quickly!"

"One, several hundred households have not come to the top value in the past two days, they are Duan, Ren, She and others. Second, the suitable slave maid listened to the report that Duan Baihu bought goods for thousands of silver in the inner market, which was very attention-grabbing. ”

"So, he's here to buy New Year's goods, isn't he? This guy is rich and generous. Zhu Cihong sneered slightly, waved his hand, and said, "Continue to keep an eye on that side, you don't have to wait for me to ask about things like this, come back and forth early." ”

"Yes, the slave knows."

When all the eunuchs went down, Zhu Cihong's face was very ugly.

After so many days of plundering, the entire East Palace, from the military attache to the battalion soldiers, has been fully trained. And because Zhu Cihong has personally commanded several times, his prestige has increased greatly, and there is no problem in controlling the internal affairs.

Besides, the inner side is in the forbidden, and it is also very convenient to monitor.

But even so, because of the constant looting and killing, although the top and bottom are like unsheathed treasure knives, because of the bloodstained and murderous, the attack surname has increased greatly, but acting like a robber, killing too many people, this knife is too sharp, a little careless, will cut yourself!

He hasn't been out of the palace for the past few days, and obviously, things outside are also showing signs of getting out of control.

It seems that it's time to stop and really rectify, and he has been in the East Palace for the past few days, which is for this reason......
