Zhu Houzhao was indeed very unhappy.

It wasn't because of the hot weather, nor because he was moving to Xiyuan, but that day he overheard his father and queen mother whispering in Kunning Palace, saying that it was time to consider choosing a concubine for him. However, he rushed in without saying a word, and said confidently that he would pick a crown princess by himself, but the emperor and queen, who had always favored him, reprimanded him fiercely, and then issued a grounding order, except for this small palace, he was not allowed to go to any other place. He was sullen when he made a mistake, and the troupe didn't make him happy that day. Only when Zhang Yong came back with a letter saying that Xu Xun wanted a firearm, he raised a little bit of spirit.

"Just give it to him. Go and tell the Ministry of War, I don't want all the weapons that I said I couldn't prepare, and I will replace them with firearms, and as for gunpowder, let the Gunpowder Bureau allocate it, if anyone refuses, come to me! ”

"But Your Highness, according to the rules, if this army has firearms, there must be an internal official to manage the gunpowder......"

Before Zhang Yong finished speaking, Zhu Houzhao became impatient: "Then pick someone to take care of it, do you still need to ask?" ”

"The little one means, the little one goes in person." Zhang Yong was stunned for a moment when he saw Zhu Houzhao, and he couldn't help but say seductively, "Your Highness, do you think that the avant-garde of the government army is the knife in your hand in the future, let others go, what if you have ulterior motives to deduct or stumble?" Besides, the more trusted you are, Your Highness, the more you can make the army over there feel at ease......"

"Okay, you Zhang Yong!"

Before Zhang Yong finished speaking, he felt a hand suddenly press heavily on his shoulder, and then he saw Zhu Houzhao jumping up happily: "Yes, yes!" But you are not allowed to stay there at night, and come back to me every day to report and talk...... Hey, if you want to go out, you have to take one or two people with you, and if my father doesn't pay so much attention one day, I don't believe I can't slip out! Yes, yes, that's it, don't be stunned, come with me to Saigong! ”

didn't expect the ending at the beginning, Zhang Yong didn't expect that Zhu Houzhao was extremely smart and thought of his job as sneaking out of the palace, and secretly complained for a while, and when Zhu Houzhao rushed out, he wiped a handful of sweat that seeped out of his head, and trotted behind him.

When he arrived at the Zhai Palace, he was only waiting outside the door, and he could hear Zhu Houzhao shouting inside, and Emperor Hongzhi reprimanded him from time to time, and lowered his head more and more, hating to pretend that he hadn't heard anything. It wasn't until he stood in a daze for half an hour that the bamboo curtain in front of the door moved, and Zhu Hou, who was covered in the smell of incense and candles, came out, and he hurriedly greeted him. But he didn't want this master to leave him and ignore him at all, so he rushed back to Chengqian Palace angrily, and only then did he turn around, and he almost didn't collide with someone.

"This is the father's warrant, you go and take the Weapons Bureau and the Gunpowder Bureau, from now on, you will be the official of the former guard guard of the government army." Zhu Houzhao's face was no longer angry and ruined just now, but was full of smug smirks, and he repeatedly admonished, "You can keep a low profile for me, this is the central decree, and it is transferred by bypassing them without going through the cabinet or the six ministries." Besides, if you want to train firearms, it would be too ostentatious to be outside Andingmen, and my father just said that there is a waste coal yard on the other side of Xishan, and it is just right to pull people there for training. ”

Zhang Yong originally thought that Zhu Houzhao had obviously touched a nail when he went to the Zhai Palace this time, but with the warrant, listening to the appointment, and facing the arrangements that had even been made in the location, he only felt that the whole person was a little unable to react, and only after a while did he ask tentatively: "Just now His Royal Highness said that he wanted to mix in the small entourage, but after all, this Xishan is farther than outside the Anding Gate......

"Alas, Sensei, my father said, drive people away, so that I don't think about leaving the palace!"

Zhu Houzhao showed an expression of interest at this time, but he propped his head and said indignantly: "Obviously it's my people and my soldiers, why don't you allow me to go and see me, and don't care what those ministers say!" My father only said that the weather was hot, and I could go to the Wenhua Palace every other day, and I didn't have to go every day, but it wasn't as uncomfortable to detain me in the palace. Father is really, I don't know how hard I read, I get up every morning with a dizzy head! ”

Little ancestor, are you still bitter? On this hot day, Gonggong Gao and those who have read books in the inner study hall have taken great pains to copy your window textbooks, and they have to show some scribbled meaning to prevent those East Palace lecturers from seeing it, which is really bitter! Moreover, I want to go out of the pavilion to study when the emperor was still the prince, then it is called really bitter, little ancestor, you have not experienced that kind of situation!

Only Zhang Yong dared to muttered in his heart, and he didn't dare to say it, but laughed and said: "What His Royal Highness said is true, but if you want to say bitterness, the emperor is even more bitter." I don't know what's going on these days, it's only the beginning of April and it's so hot, it's hard for the emperor to say that the emperor is going to the court, and when the sun comes out, it's just burning and burning, and it can really get rid of people's skin. ”

"That's it, I looked at my father's mouth and the bubble that burned out of his mouth is not good yet, I persuaded him to stop for a few days and not go to court, but my father still didn't agree, I was really angry! Those officials are too, one by one, what is good about this dynasty, I didn't take you to take a peek once, those officials of Honglu Temple stared at the side as if they were catching thieves, and they all said Wen Crepe's words, which were useless at all, wasting time tossing people to play! ”

Zhang Yong was just under the guise of caring about the emperor, but Zhu Houzhao had already scolded the court meeting system, so scared that Zhang Yong didn't dare to say anything more, seeing that the fruit was sent outside, he had to clean his hands and serve the master with the fruit, and said some gossip and interesting things about the government and the opposition outside, but Zhu Houzhao's comments were often digging into the flesh and bones, and he almost didn't dare to say it later.

He said that Ma Wensheng and Jiao Fang fell ill one after another, and Zhu Houzhao casually said that someone in the court had reported illness when he saw the sky, but no one left; He said that there have been more poetry societies in the capital recently, and Zhu Houzhao pouted and said that the poetry society and literary societies all need money, and those literati usually say that they eat and wear shabby, but they are generous in this, which shows that reputation is important; Zhu Houzhao lazily said that there are a lot of loyal ministers and Qing officials in the DPRK, and the common people still love to listen to the blue sky, which shows that people today are still more angry than the ancients...... All in all, in the end, seeing Zhu Houzhao drowsy, he suddenly remembered the idea Xu Xun used last year.

"Your Highness, if you really want to rest for a few days, it's not impossible. Didn't you get sick last year? I haven't been to the Mandarin Hall once in those days of recuperation. Now that Liu Wentai is familiar with this thing again, let him think about a medicinal diet recipe, so that you can rest for a few more days. Although you can't leave the palace, it's better than listening to the lecture. ”

"Hey, I forgot there's this one!"

Zhu Houzhao, whose eyes were almost together just now, sat up straight all of a sudden, and after thinking about it for a long time, he nodded emphatically and said, "Okay, okay, let's skip those boring classes first!" Send someone to the Tai Hospital to find Liu Wentai, and say that the prince is going to be sick, let him think of a good prescription to come over for diagnosis and treatment, remember not to have any pigeon soup, I am tired of eating! ”

For Jiao Fang, who was pushed by everyone on the wall, Liu Wentai originally didn't want to mix, but he tasted the sweetness of the two hundred taels of gold that he received before, and this time the matchmaker sent another one hundred taels of gold, he thought about it and felt that there was no risk, so he accepted it half-pushed and half-pushed, and cooperated with a good show. However, on this day, when he returned to the palace from Jiaofu to the Imperial Pharmacy, his mind was full of Na Diluo's words, who would have thought that someone in the East Palace would immediately come over, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he would be stunned.

"Court Liu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that you are not feeling good these days, so let you think of a medicinal diet recipe as soon as possible."

The person who came left without saying anything, but Liu Wentai was surprised and delighted. It seems that the prince helped to "cure the disease" before, and then he is acting with Jiao Fang, and he just thought that he would sell it in front of the prince without losing it, but as soon as he came back, he fell asleep and met the pillow man and sent it to the door! Although he has not yet been reinstated as an envoy after the Qianqiu Festival, if he flatters the prince to obtain the law this time, this is not a matter of being caught? The emperor could not restore him to his official position because of the opposition of his courtiers, but if he cured the crown prince again, what could the ministers do?

The prince is sick!

Such a news once again made the chickens and dogs in the palace jump. Whether it was the emperor in the Zhai Palace, Empress Zhang of the Kunning Palace, or even the Queen Mother Wang of the Renshou Palace, everyone was busy again, until Liu Wentai personally diagnosed the pulse, and swore that as long as the right medicine was prescribed to heal, the Queen Mother and the Empress Dowager were relieved, and only instructed Liu Wentai to serve carefully and recuperate, and not to slack off. And the lecture in the Wenhua Hall naturally stopped completely.

However, just when it was said that all the people in and outside the palace were jumping for the illness of important people, Ye Guang, the Fusi of Beizhen, got a wonderful and strange news, even with his many years of experience, he still didn't know whether to play it or not, and finally summoned Li Yifeng to discuss, but he ate this subordinate and sent a brilliant idea.

"My lord, nominally, our Jinyi Wei is the governor of Dongchang, why don't you let that prince get the idea?"

King Cannon Battle?

Ye Guang was so shrewd, he immediately realized Li Yifeng's intention to make this proposal, and immediately smiled, and this afternoon, he came to the Waidongchang to meet him, and it didn't take long to wait for the Dongchang Governor. The two nominally manage each other, but Wang Yue is not a person who dictates anything, Ye Guang only guards the brocade guard and does not cross the line, and the two of them do not interfere with the river water most of the time, and they rarely see each other. At this time, after Ye Guang paid a visit, after sitting down, he asked for a resignation, and opened his mouth to say something that Wang Yue didn't expect at all.

"Princess, it's really because I don't know what to do about one thing, which has disturbed you. I just got a report, saying that it was Liu Wentai, who was sentenced by the hospital, and when he was drunk, he said to people that he was lucky these days, but he encountered two patients who pretended to be sick, and he could get rid of the disease without much effort. ”
