Chapter 5 Future Plans

And Zhang Yanling, who opened his mind, also remembered more information, for example, more famous than Emperor Hongzhi was his son Emperor Wuzong Zhu Houzhao, and the reason why Emperor Wuzong Zhu Houzhao was famous was not only because he himself was judged to be absurd, but also because during the reign of Emperor Wuzong, there was a eunuch who was more famous than him - Liu Jin.

Who is Liu Jin? That is the head of the dignified 'Eight Tigers', known as the 'richest man in the world' at that time, that is to say, he is richer than Emperor Wuzong, and the role of Liu Jin as the prototype in later generations is widely active in major TV series, movies, and novels...... Among them, of course, they are all negative characters.

In fact, the reason why Zhang Yanling knew Hongzhi and Wuzong was that the history teacher once sighed, 'Liu Jin, a eunuch, became the 'richest man in the world' at that time in just a few years, and his ability is extraordinary." ’

This made Zhang Yanling a little curious, so he looked up the knowledge about Liu Jin, and at the same time checked the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, and found that the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were also very individual! So I took a closer look.

This move makes the current Zhang Yanling very happy! Although it is only a brief understanding, there may not be much useful information, but at least it is much better than knowing nothing.

And now as a relative, the current emperor's brother-in-law, and the future emperor's uncle, Zhang Yanling feels that this kind of life is really beautiful! It can be said that the wind is going to be windy, and the rain is going to rain.

'Wait! Zhang Yanling's excited look froze a little, he seemed to remember that Xiaozong and Wuzong actually died relatively early, and in fact, many emperors of the Ming Dynasty died young.

However, Emperor Wuzong is very special, that is, he had no descendants when he died, so the successor was Emperor Jiajing, who was also famous for his relationship with Zhengde, and Emperor Hongzhi's lineage was cut off.

If he is not mistaken, Emperor Jiajing can be said to be wise and martial in his early years, and he had the courage to reform, but of course he became mediocre in the later period.

But it doesn't matter whether Jiajing is mediocre or not, the important thing is that even if Zhang Yanling doesn't understand politics, he knows that the new official has three fires in office! The most important thing for Jiajing to take the throne is, of course, to suppress officials loyal to Wuzong and support his own people.

As a relative, or a relative of Xiaozong and Wuzong, he can be said to be a representative figure among the nobles, and there is no doubt that he is naturally Jiajing's primary target! And it's the kind of target that must be killed, and it's not safe to be disabled.

Zhang Yanling's expression is very bad, he is only a teenager now! In addition, Hongzhi and Wuzong both died young, and when Jiajing ascended the throne, he was only middle-aged, and he still had a lot of time to enjoy life, how could he be willing to be clicked by Jiajing!

In fact, Zhang Yanling thought too much, in history, Jiajing really wanted to kill him, but because Empress Zhang was still alive at that time, plus the courtiers interceded, he was just imprisoned, and in history, Zhang Yanling lived to be seventy years old before he was beheaded after Empress Zhang's death.

Of course, he had been in prison for more than ten years before this, and it can be said that it is indeed a sad story.

"No, for the sake of my good life, I must kill Jiajing's little turtle cub." Zhang Yanling Huo Ran got up, said with a vicious face, and then was a little confused, "Eh, by the way, Zhu Houzhao's nephew is only two years old, and Jiajing may not even be a tadpole now!" How to tidy! If you don't kill Jiajing's father, but Lao Tzu doesn't even know what Jiajing's real name is, let alone who his father is......"

'Hmmm! And killing Jiajing is not to mention the danger, but it is not safe, after all, if Zhu Houzhao's nephew has no descendants, the throne will still be handed over to the children of the royal family of the side branch, so the best way is to let Zhu Houzhao live a long life, and then have a descendant, but he will not be able to give birth to children until he dies, I am afraid that there is a problem with his health!

This is not easy to solve, after all, I don't know how to heal, so use a roundabout way to let my sister have a few more children! Well, that's a good idea...... Yes, I have time to find some tiger whips, bull whips, horse whips and the like to make up for the cheap brother-in-law.

It's a pity that my cheap brother-in-law is pale, and his body is probably weaker than my current body, otherwise, I hope that my cheap brother-in-law can live a long life, so it's okay for my sister to have seven or eight children.

But I can't give up Zhu Houzhao's nephew, who was the more famous doctor in the Ming Dynasty? Zhang Yanling silently made his own little calculations.

As for finding a few more concubines for Emperor Hongzhi, he is not so stupid, Emperor Hongzhi favors Empress Zhang alone, and the Zhang family is more stable and prosperous! And he can be a gentleman with peace of mind, isn't it, and the children born to other concubines will not be so close to their Zhang family.

……

After a few days of busyness, Zhang Yanling's father, Changguo Gong Zhang Luan, who had never met before, finally settled in the ground, and Zhang Yanling could finally breathe a sigh of relief, there was no way to be the emperor's father-in-law, his funeral was naturally not simply finished, and all kinds of things were busy making Zhang Yanling physically and mentally exhausted.

And even if Zhang Luan, the Duke of Changguo, has been buried in the ground, but the matter is not over, in ancient times, the custom of filial piety was still observed, but fortunately, the relationship between filial piety and Zhang Yanling is not very big, after all, he also has an elder brother Zhang Heling, as the son of the Zhang family, it is naturally incumbent on him to keep filial piety.

Just when Zhang Yanling wanted to take a good rest, a piece of news made Zhang Yanling happy, that is, his queen sister decided to take their mother Zhang Jin to live in the palace, and his cheap brother-in-law Emperor Hongzhi also gave great support to this.

In this way, he will naturally have a lot fewer opportunities to meet his mother, Zhang Jinshi, and it will be less likely to be exposed, so Zhang Yanling naturally agrees with this.

However, as soon as Zhang Jin's family moved into the palace, Zhang Yanling was swept away by his eldest brother Zhang Heling, no, to be precise, it was his cheap brother-in-law Emperor Hongzhi who didn't give him the title of 'Jianchang Bo', in fact, he was also given a Jianchang Bo Mansion by the way when he was rewarded.

And after Zhang Heling left, Zhang Yanling divided some of Zhang Yanling's family property in a serious manner, and let Zhang Yanling go to his Jianchang Bo Mansion, which can be regarded as a formal separation.

In fact, Zhang Yanling guessed something about Zhang Heling's thoughts, it was nothing more than that now that their father died, their mother Zhang Jin went to the palace, and the entire Shouning Bo Mansion was under Zhang Heling's control, it can be said that it is going to be windy and rainy, it is not too cool, and at this time Zhang Yanling is a little eye-catching, so he naturally wants to drive away, anyway, Zhang Yanling now has his own mansion.
