After the British public Zhang Mao led the letter to punish Zhang Yu, Liu Wentai and others, whether it was Yanjing or Nanjing, from the official of science and Taoism to the director of the six departments, many people followed the book, and the kind of gnashing of teeth seemed to want to tear these culprits who caused the death of Emperor Hongzhi alive. Not only them, but even those scholars who were studying in the Hanlin Academy also had a lot of clamoring, and in the end, Zhu Houzhao, who had not yet ascended the throne, personally issued an order that Ma Wensheng, the head of the six departments, the head of the six departments, the Zuodu Yu Shi Daishan, and the Beizhen Fusi jointly try the case. When the prisoners were transferred from the prison of the Inner Officials, all the prisoners who had thought they would die under the gnawing of rats and cockroaches burst into tears.

The so-called Three Law Divisions were originally the Dali Temple of the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Criminal Department, but with the great power of Jinyi Guard, Dali Temple has long been in power, and even the Criminal Department has been excluded from this trial, which inevitably aroused many suspicions inside and outside, and only Xu Xun knows the reason - it is nothing more than because Min Gui, the secretary of the Criminal Department, dragged Zheng Wang and a few people to be executed for a long time, Zhu Houzhao was very angry, and that's all.

However, even if this criminal is no longer under his control, he still has something to do, that is, on May 18, Zhu Houzhao ascended the throne, and the little prince appointed him to lead the vanguard of the army as a servant, and he was in a horizontal shift with Jinyiwei. But after repeatedly practicing the enthronement ceremony for three or four days, Xu Xun, who was tired and paralyzed, couldn't help but have a strange idea in his heart when he saw Zhu Houzhao, who had also rehearsed for several days, and his face was not good.

He was still thinking about it, Zhu Houzhao snatched the purple sand teapot sent by Liu Jin and drank it directly to his mouth, then looked at Xu Xun and smiled: "How is it, this tastes uncomfortable, right?" Since you are my confidant, you can't watch me be unlucky alone, you know, share blessings and hardships! ”

Seeing Xu Xun's grinning appearance, Zhu Houzhao looked at Liu Jin and the others and snorted coldly: "And you, in short, don't even think about escaping from this skin-shedding ceremony!" ”

As soon as Zhu Houzhao said this, the entire Dongnuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace suddenly cried with a sad face. Xu Xun has been kneeling and worshipping with the ceremonial officials in the past few days, and his whole body has been completely sore and wanting to die, knowing that Zhu Houzhao had to worship Emperor Daxing on the day he ascended the throne, followed by worshipping the sky, worshipping the late Empress Dowager and worshipping the Empress Dowager in the first hall, worshipping the late Empress Dowager and worshipping the Empress Dowager and worshipping her mother, this kowtow is far better than the civil and military officials who bow five times and kowtow three times, so now the little one is tossed by Zhu Houzhao, and the little prince clearly said that he is blessed and enjoys hardships together, and he is also choked with nothing to say.

When it came to the enthronement ceremony on May 18, I don't know whether it was an open eye or an intentional test, but the sun was baked like a furnace early in the morning. Zhu Houzhao first walked out of the Qianqing Palace in filial piety clothes, and when he arrived at the Fengtian Hall through the chariot, the first layer of his clothes was already glued to his body. However, this long day has only just begun.

In front of the throne of Emperor Hongzhi in the past, four bows, after reading the congratulations, it was four bows, and then, he quickly changed into a set of no less than a dozen layers of the Son of Heaven crown inside and outside under the service of more than a dozen eunuchs, this toss was so hot that his head was almost dizzy, and when he stepped out of the Fengtian Temple to worship the heavens on the Dan Qi and bowed five times and three times, he only felt that he was kowtowing, and the beads of sweat the size of soybeans on his head fell one by one on the Dan Qi. This tossing was not until he got into the chariot and went to Fengxian Palace, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and after wiping his sweat, Liu Jin on the side stuffed a cloth bag while he was unprepared.

Zhu Houzhao felt cold and cold when he pinched it, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, seeing that Liu Jin didn't dare to speak, and only made a gesture to cover his face, he knowingly covered the cloth bag on his hot cheeks. The next moment, he only felt that his nose and face, which were originally hot and uncomfortable, suddenly cooled down, and even his breathing was much smoother, and the feeling of almost collapse was even more dissipated. So, when he was bowing down in front of Fengxian Palace, he pulled Liu Jin's sleeve while others were not paying attention.

"Is there anything else about it?"

"Your Highness, rest assured, I have prepared this thing in several palaces along the way, and there are enough of them." Liu Jin saw Zhu Houzhao sigh for a long time, so he glanced at Xu Xun who was not far away and said, "This is all Xu Xun's cleverness, saying that it is to take ice cubes and carry them with three layers of soft cloth inside and outside, which is not easy to melt, and second, it can be used anytime and anywhere." ”

With such supplies, Zhu Houzhao made a kowtow worm all the way in this Fengxian Palace, and finally survived. Then he went to visit the two palaces, and his spirit was much better. After all, the Empress Dowager Wang is separated by a layer, and Empress Zhang was secretly worried when she saw the vicious head in the morning, but this enthronement ceremony is no better than other times, and the hour cannot be mistaken at all, she can only get up and leave after her son has bowed and squeeze his hand heavily, but one hand happened to touch the cold cloth bag, and she couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and saw Zhu Houzhao blink at herself before reacting.

Finally, this kid is still smart, otherwise he would be sick after this day!

When this circle of kowtow worms was finished, and Zhu Houzhao returned to Fengtian Hall to ascend to the throne again, he was finally refreshed. Seeing the brocade guards whipping the Honglu Temple to salute, and the hundred officials bowing five times and kowtowing three times, he gave birth to a feeling that he would be at the top of the mountain at the same time, but he sat on the throne and looked at the rows of heads below, and glanced at the throne that could not be relied on anywhere in front and back, left and right, and suddenly a feeling of emptiness surged in his heart.

From today onwards, he is truly alone? No, he still has his mother, he still has Liu Jin's loyal companions who have been with him for more than ten years, and he also has Xu Xun, a resourceful and resourceful advisor, he will marry a wife and have children in the future, he will not be alone, never!

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live......"

The sound of the mountain roaring and the tsunami continued from the main hall to the outside of the main hall, and the sound of the chant seemed to shake the main hall, but Zhu Houzhao, the person who listened, felt in a trance. Soon, his gaze moved back from the nobles and cabinet chiefs at the front, but under that kind of cookie-cutter attire, he could barely recognize people...... I don't know how long it took, he suddenly noticed a strange tranquility around him, and immediately came back to his senses, looked left and right, and he realized that this ritual had finally come to an end, and then it was time to send the edict issued by the enthronement to Chengtianmen to be read.

"Give the edict."

"The emperor has decreed that he will issue an amnesty edict!"

Although it was an edict drafted by the cabinet, Zhu Houzhao had carefully read it several times in advance, and even gathered all his henchmen to study it together, and in the end he was afraid of being blinded by Liu Jian and others, so he specially summoned Xiao Jing to explain one by one, and even changed the Yuan Zhengde next year, he pondered the year number for a while, so when the edict was read at this time, he couldn't help but wander again. And he didn't get nervous, the bag of ice in his sleeve gradually turned into water, and it ticked down his drooping sleeve, Liu Jian, who was a lot older, didn't see it, but Li Dongyang and Xie Qian saw it clearly, and quietly glanced at each other without making a sound.

After tossing for most of the day, the hour is not early. As soon as the ceremony was over, Zhu Houzhao left his seat and retreated first, and as soon as he got on the imperial chariot, he fell to his seat as if he was paralyzed, and he didn't find that his sleeves were completely wet. After a while, he reached out to untie the tie around his neck very ungracefully, took off his hat and threw it away, and when he was about to reach out to take off his boots, Gao Feng on the side finally couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly approached and said: "Your Majesty, it's almost time to arrive at the Qianqing Palace, please bear with me for the time being." ”

"Qianqing Palace? I...... No, I won't live in the Qianqing Palace tonight, and I will still go back to the Chengqian Palace to live! Zhu Houzhao sat up straight all of a sudden, and said categorically, "If they were asked before, it would be said that the first emperor had passed away, and I couldn't bear to live in the Qianqing Palace, so I thought they would have nothing to say!" ”

Facing the stubborn little emperor, Gao Feng was stunned for a moment, but he didn't persuade him after all, and Liu Jin had already known about it, and even deliberately cleaned up the Chengqian Palace, let alone say anything. When Zhu Houzhao returned to the Chengqian Palace, where he had lived for more than ten years, the first thing he did was to kick off the boots on his feet, and shouted loudly for people to help him undress, and a large group of people tossed for a quarter of an hour, and then finally stripped off the layers of clothes, and then someone sent the bath bucket and hot water in to serve Zhu Houzhao into the bath.

Zhu Houzhao, who was sweating in a stinky sweat, sat down in the bathtub, and then breathed a sigh of relief. After a long while, he said lazily again: "Xu Xun, let him come to see me...... No, it's me! ”

Several eunuchs who were pinching their hands and feet next to each other looked at each other for a while, but Liu Jin smiled and said: "Your Majesty, this Chengqian Palace is no better than the Qianqing Palace, and there is no reason to summon foreign officials......

"Who's to say no? The last time I was sick, my father clearly ordered him to persuade me to drink medicine. Go quickly, I used to be the crown prince, you didn't dare to disobey, but now that I am the son of heaven, you dare not listen? Go, Liu Jin, you go in person, so as not to make others unclear. After a word, Liu Jinfei ran out to pass the word, and he said happily, "I'm really tired today, and I can finally rest for a while." ”

"I'm afraid the emperor can't." Ma Yongcheng looked at this vacancy, and said with a smile, "The three gentlemen of the cabinet have sent someone to the celebrant before, and according to the schedule set before, please ask the emperor to say that the emperor will go to the court at the west corner gate ......."

"Ming!" Zhu Houzhao was shocked, and in his excitement, he actually stood up naked in the bathtub, "The court only listens to so many five things on this hot day, and they are so enthusiastic!" No, no, not tomorrow, I'm all soft now! Father's ...... When my father ascended the throne, did he go to court the next day? ”

"Back to the emperor, I think that the first emperor ascended the throne on the sixth day of the ninth month, and because of his grief, he was exempted from the court, and on September 12, he began to go to the court at the west corner gate......

"Since my father is not a dynasty, how can I be a son, how can I say more...... Well, if they come again, they will say that I am in mourning, and today is May 18th...... Wait until the second day of the sixth month to start the court! Zhu Houzhao looked around as he spoke, and saw that Liu Jin was not there, and when he came to his mouth, Jiao Fang's words swallowed back before the book came. He was already tired of doing this face-to-face today, and when he thought of doing a meaningless thing like this every day in the future, he was so irritated that he wanted to die!
