Zhu Cihong did not go directly to Nanjing from Fengyang, but first turned to Xuyi, worshiped the ancestral tomb, and then went south to Nanjing. He had just arrived in Nanjing, and the news from Beijing had already arrived. One of the holy decrees added the title of prison to Zhu Cihong, and put him in charge of quelling the slave rebellion in the south, but all the provinces that could be listed were also clearly written in the holy decree, including Fujian, Liangguang and Yunnan, where the news of the slave rebellion had not yet been reported.

This is basically the meaning of handing over half of the Ming Dynasty to Zhu Cihong.

Now the court and China are mixed, unlike the East Palace officials who were all in charge when they were in Jinan. Therefore, it is inevitable that some strange things will come out, even if they dare not say it, they will say it through the mouth of the Song people. Among them, Wang Shipeng said: "Most of the prince's duty is to greet An's food." As for the military and the country, it has to be a last resort. ”

Some people also borrowed Yang Wanli's words and said more and more clearly: "There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two kings in the people, but there are no two kings, so there are 10,000 surnames and 100 officials." Now that the Holy Lord is above, and there is a prison kingdom again, is it close to the two kings? In this way, one person with a hundred surnames and a hundred officials from the sect and two people from the sect? Since ancient times and today, there has not been a heart in the world, and the father and son are not in danger. ”

If the former still has the "Zuo Chuan" as a support and explanation (see "The Second Year of Min Gong"), it can still be regarded as a Taoist analysis, while Yang Wanli's theory of "two days and two kings" touches the core of power.

This sounds appalling, and if he was replaced by the crown prince of the Song Dynasty, he might have to cry and beg his father not to appoint a "prison state".

But Da Ming is Da Ming after all, not Da Song full of fat powder.

Emperor Taizu Gao clearly wrote in the "Book of Establishing the Prince as the Crown Prince": "Ersheng Palace, as the first heir, the will of heaven belongs, is hereby located in the East Palace." He respects the heavens and is cautious, and he cares for the army and supervises the country, and he is also in charge. Six Divisions Zhaomin. It is advisable to be benevolent and benevolent, to convince its heart, and to be permanently fixed in the state family. ”

Fu Jun, Jian Guo, Six Divisions, and Zhaomin, so clearly stipulate the military and civilian powers of the crown prince, who else can deliberately distort the meaning of the text?

As for the later Chengzu, Renzong was in charge of the country for seven degrees; Heir of Renzong. Xuanzong was appointed as the crown prince, and the edict said: "Chinese and foreign notices will be adjudicated"; Sejong Nan Xingchengtian, also ordered the crown prince to supervise the country, because Prince Zhuang Jing was only three or four years old, so Xuancheng Bowei Qian as the remaining envoy, and the university scholar Gu Dingchen and other assistants.

In the Ming Dynasty, the emperor systematically connived at his son's division of imperial power and cultivated it purposefully. This is also the main reason why Chongzhen doesn't care about Zhu Cihong's training of guards in Beijing.

There is this iron-clad ancestral system in front of you. Who can say anything?

Well, in the original historical time and space, Guang Shiheng once said to Li Mingrui, who proposed the crown prince to supervise Nanjing: "You want to do spiritual martial arts!" ”

However, in that time and space, the crown prince was a deep palace sprout with no power.

Zhu Cihong, who has changed this time and space, holds the most elite division and brigade of the Ming Dynasty, and one-third of the country is an official appointed by him, and if he wants to connect him with Tang Suzong, he always has to weigh the result if he touches the crown prince's scales. When the time comes, the ancestral system is a knife. Strength is a trick, how do you feel as a fish?

You can't say it in the court. But there is still a place to say.

Newspaper.

With the expansion of the occupied areas, more and more local newspapers were established in accordance with the "Imperial Publication Law". Zhu Cihong received hundreds of thousands of taels of security deposits from above, of course, it is impossible to ask before people want to open a newspaper: Are you on the side of the crown prince?

10,000 taels of silver is an astronomical amount for the small people of Shengdou, but it is a drizzle for those who are interested in "making a statement". Since the court cannot object, then under the banner of studying the scriptures and meanings of the "Zuo Chuan", it is no problem to say in the newspapers.

It turns out. These people are too naïve.

If you use a fake name, no one will know the way?

What does the East Factory do?

None of the newspapers dared to obstruct Dongchang's handling of the case, and it was necessary to check the physical evidence, the original manuscript of the contribution, the responsibility to edit the confession, and the small man who sent the pen to the residence, which can be said to be complete in terms of human and material evidence. It's just that Zhu Cihong is not willing to be convicted for his words. Once this bad start is opened, there may not be no more deformed products such as word prisons.

However, Zhu still remembered his promise to the Ryukyu envoys to gather 5,000 people to teach Chinese and learn the Ryukyuan language.

The General Administration of Transportation has also questioned, where to find so many people? The answer is simple: appointment.

If you are an official, you must obey the appointment and transfer.

At the beginning, nearly 3,000 officials in Beijing broke in, but a group of the latter two died, a group was taken away by Manchuria, and nearly 2,000 people remained behind. These people have the "Amnesty Order" to protect their lives, and Zhu Cihong is reluctant to ruin his reputation because of these ants.

Since they still have official status, let's take a trip to Ryukyu.

These people are excellent at Chinese and sinology, and they can be described as masters, and they will certainly not delay the Ryukyu children.

Of course, these unscrupulous demoted officials cannot all be sent out, and some officials with general affairs talents still have to be retained. The resulting gap is filled by these people who like to spit in the newspapers.

In addition, local officials who had "outstanding" performance during the slavery also had the opportunity to travel to Ryukyu and Okinawa, a tourist destination in later generations.

Jiang Yueguang initially felt that the crown prince was too open-mouthed, so where did he go to find so many people? As everyone knows, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has long been confident, and the list of the first batch of officials to be sent to Ryukyu has already been drawn up.

As for those officials who refused to go to their posts, they were directly stripped of their official status for the crime of disobedience and sent to serve in the Ryukyus, which was still doomed.

Because of this, the officials who thought of resigning finally had one more choice.

After being verified by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, there were no economic problems such as corruption and dereliction of duty, and the origin of the huge amount of property was unknown, and the imperial court allowed him to return to his hometown in vain. If there is a problem, depending on the severity of the situation, it will be sent to Liaodong or Ryukyu to serve.

On the first day of Zhu Cihong's arrival in Nanjing, he was at peace with everyone.

The next day, the filial piety tomb of Emperor Taizu Gao and Empress Xiaoci Ma was still a good child with filial piety and virtuous grandchildren.

On the third day, Zhu Cihong, the crown prince of the prison state, listened to the government at the imperial gate of Fengtianmen, and suddenly became hideous.

The hundreds of officials in Nanjing, as well as the relatives of various families, suddenly found that this time the crown prince did not come to worship the ancestors and repair the tomb, but had the intention of extinguishing all the civil and military officials in Nanjing. And those who supported the crown prince to do so were not only the 10,000 guards led by Xiao Mo, but the 1,000 "East Palace officials" who accompanied Zhu Cihong to the south.

If you look at the entire Ming Dynasty, you can see that there are more grassroots officials who have been educated according to the East Palace system, and they have traveled to Nanjing from Henan, Jinan, Tianjin, and Beijing in batches. The total number of court officials registered in the Ming Dynasty is about 50,000, and Jiangnan occupies half of the country, and the crown prince's goal is to find a good stand-in for each of them.

Overnight, Ying Tianfu was unsurprisingly taken over by the crown prince's personal officials. Originally, whether officials were guilty or not, they all retreated and only assisted in the handover of government affairs.

……

"This Qian Qianyi has always been shameless!" Emperor Chongzhen slapped the table heavily, shaking his palms numb.

Wang Chengen cautiously glanced at the music on the table, and it turned out to be sent by Qian Qianyi, who had been dismissed from his official position. He retracted his head and said secretly in his heart: I don't know what Lu Dao wrote, which provoked the emperor to be so atmospheric. However, the Secretary of General Affairs actually sent this concert up, presumably with an instruction, right?

Chongzhen was so angry that he spewed out two balls of rough air from his nostrils, and then he stood up and said, "Take the music and go to Kunning Palace." ”

The eldest son is far away in Nanjing, and Chongzhen's government affairs have gradually increased, but it is generally only for him to know the Tao, and he does not need to be judged. Sometimes he couldn't help but itch his hands, and the civil officials would tell him sensibly that there was already a law for this matter.

From this point of view, Chongzhen very much recognizes Zhu Cihong's habit of "legislative", forming stripes, following everything, and not relying on momentary emotions.

If you want to say that you respect your son, it is a bit embarrassing to say it, but respecting the laws of the country is what any Ming monarch should do.

Gradually, Chongzhen became slack off on political affairs, and wrote a "cabinet knowledge" more and more times. This time, he got Qian Qianyi's recital, but it made him a little hateful, and he couldn't wait to exile Qian Qianyi to Ryukyu!

"Look, I even said that my brother Chun seized Nanjing and appointed private individuals! He didn't know if Brother Lu Daochun was destined to be the emperor! If it is placed in the Taizu Dynasty, there must be a sin of 'separating the flesh and blood of the Heavenly Family'! Chongzhen arrived at Kunning Palace and threw Qian Qianyi's performance on the case.

Zhou Hou smiled so much that the corners of his eyes wrinkled, and said: "Such an ignorant person cares about what he does, and he can't just send it to Brother Chun for him to look at by himself." ”

Chongzhen was still a little angry, and when he saw the queen's posture, he became curious: "What's going on with you today?" What's the fun fact? ”

"It's a happy event." Zhou Hou stepped forward and whispered: "Just now, the hospital reported that the crown princess was happy." ”

"Really!" Chongzhen was taken aback, and immediately overjoyed: "Has it been diagnosed?" ”

"You don't know the rules of the palace? Such a big thing, can it be reported if it is not diagnosed? Zhou Hou glanced at the emperor's husband and said, "I can't see it, Brother Chun is still quite capable." ”

"Ha, haha!" Chongzhen rubbed his hands excitedly, and suddenly said: "Quick, pass on the will, and the morning and dusk will be spared." Everything in the Zhongcui Palace must be checked, and the crown princess must not be damaged. One should eat and drink, let the doctor refer to it, and don't mistakenly eat taboos. ”

"I have already asked people to do it, and I have sent a few old and nurtured mothers-in-law to take care of them day and night, and it will be fine." Zhou Hou paused and said: "It's just that Brother Chun doesn't know when Lu Dao will come back, and the crown princess is staying in the palace alone, and most of them will be afraid." I thought that if Mo Ruo brought her mother and sister to stay with her for a few days, there would always be someone to talk to. ”

Chongzhen groaned and said, "Just do what the queen says." ”

"Is there a message from Brother Chun'er?" Zhou Hou asked.

"Having Yuanzi is a big deal, isn't it just for him to know the Tao? I also want the world to know the way. Chongzhen said excitedly.

"The emperor is slow." Zhou Hou stopped Chongzhen: "According to the customs of the concubine's hometown, if you have a new body, you can't make a big show, for fear that the fetus will be unstable." ”

"Well, I don't know. Then wait until the fetus is stable. But Brother Chun is going to say something. Chongzhen was extremely excited when he thought that he was about to have a grandson, and even Qian Qianyi's failure was left behind.

Until the crown prince's recital came to remind him. (To be continued......)
