Zhu Cihong did not take a nap as he wished.

First of all, a eunuch came to the palace, and announced the queen's decree and asked him to return to the palace immediately. Of course, Zhu Cihong refused to agree, he would rather gather a group of civil and military petty officials who did not know the truth and flee to Nanjing, rather than set foot in the Forbidden City again.

Fortunately, then came the holy decree of the emperor Bixia, who clearly told Qiqing, the prince went out of the palace to raise the army, and ordered the staff to assist. With this holy decree, Zhu Cihong can finally ignore the decree of the queen mother. However, considering that the two decrees were only a quarter of an hour's work before and after, it seems that the palace will have to make trouble for a few days.

The Seven Qing of the Ming Dynasty refers to the six halls and the left and right imperial envoys. Because the "right position" such as the right capital envoy or the right capital envoy is often the title of the feudal official, in order to coordinate the local judicial, administrative, and disciplinary inspections, and is not in Beijing, so there are only six Shangshu and one left capital imperial history in Beijing, which is still seven.

Qiqing is the backbone of the high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty, and all the emperor's decrees are sent by the cabinet to Qiqing for execution. Moreover, there are often ministers who are also ministers themselves, and they are all well-deserved ministers. The reason why the emperor issued an edict to these important ministers and asked them to assist the crown prince was to practice the ancestral system.

In the early years of Hongwu, Emperor Taizu Gao placed a large hall, collected ancient and modern books, and summoned famous Confucians from all over the world to guide princes and princes. Soon, the prince lived in Wenhua Hall, and the Confucian attendants took shifts, and selected talented people to accompany him.

At that time, in addition to the prince and young master, young master, young guard, and guests, the officials of the East Palace also had the left and right Zhan affairs, the same knowledge of the Zhan affairs, the deputy Zhan affairs, the Zhan Shicheng, the left and right government envoys, the left and right government affairs, the left and right government deputy envoys, the Yude, and the Zanshan doctors, all of whom were honored as former ministers and led their duties. There are also officials such as literature, middle house, orthography, waiting, washing horses, concubines, and praise reading.

In the fifteenth year of Hongwu, the left and right Chunfang officials were revised, and each of them placed a concubine, Yude, Zhongyun, Zanshan, and Si Zhilang, and each set up a university scholar. Immediately, the bureau officials were determined, and the horses were washed, the school books were written, and the orthography was set up.

Because there were too many subordinate officials and there was no command, Emperor Taizu Gao set up the Zhan Mansion in the 22nd year of Hongwu to change the Zhan Mansion in 25 years.

It can be said that Taizu's intention was to establish a set of backup bureaucracy. Once the crown prince ascends to the throne or supervises the country, the East Palace official will replace the main court official and carry out the state affairs. Later, Taizu realized the hidden danger of splitting the power of the country in this way, so he imitated the old system of the Tang and Song dynasties, and let the chief minister concurrently serve as the official of the East Palace, so as to ensure that "father and son are one, and the monarch and the minister are of one heart".

Before the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the crown prince was very frequent. Especially Chengzu is always personally recruited outside, Renzong was the crown prince when he was in charge, and he often supervised state affairs. It is precisely because of this set of rules set by grandfather Zhu Yuanzhang that there is no delay in national affairs, except for the major military affairs to be sent to the emperor, everything else is decided by the prince.

After arriving in Jiajing, the position of the crown prince was obscure, the prince's master, Fu, Bao, and guests all became the titles of rewarding the ministers, and even the official position of the Zhan Mansion became the official of the Hanlin Cichen, which actually could not support the prince's need to ask questions, so the only way to let the emperor issue an order to Qiqing, and directly use state officials to fill the duties of the East Palace officials.

However, there is another problem here, that is, the crown prince and the prince cannot have personal relations with foreign ministers. Therefore, after Qiqing received the decree, he just made psychological preparations, and after the Zhan Shifu worshiped the prince, he arranged for Qiqing to enter the meeting with the prince's decree. If any of the seven elders can't think of it, he hurriedly runs to ask for a meeting, and when the situation is right in the future, it will be a good ammunition for the impeachment of the imperial history.

Now Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi is Guo Zhiqi, but this official position is only his transfer level, and he is serving as the deputy envoy of the inspection in Fujian, and also the envoy and assisting in the military preparation. Zhu Cihong once heard that he was in Xiucai at the age of eleven, and later heard that he led his troops to quell the Fujian and Qing thieves' rebellion, and raised troops to guard Shanguan.

Since Zhan Shi of Zhengsanpin was not there, and the other subordinate officials belonged to other yamen, no one summoned them to the Qiandi to worship the prince for a while. Those who can add the duties of the Zhan Mansion are all ministers who have learned the etiquette system, and there are no stupid people after learning about it, so they contacted each other and gathered in front of the gate of the hidden mansion at an appointed time, ready to meet them.

Wu Weiye was selected as a lecturer in the East Palace since Chongzhen was ten years old, and he was the teacher who really taught the prince. And from the seventh-grade official when Chongzhen was ten years old, to the current fifth-grade left-rank concubine, his steps to enter the body all fell on the prince. Hearing that the prince left the palace to raise the army, Wu Weiye was more worried than other part-time East Palace officials, so he came very early.

Menzi couldn't figure out the prince's temper, and when he saw that this little official didn't understand the reason, and he didn't know how to stuff a red envelope, he didn't see it, so he asked Wu Weiye to wait outside. It wasn't until there were more and more Wenchen gathered in the square in front of Duanli Gate that he went in to report without hurrying.

Zhu Cihong had been swept away from his sleepiness by the two central decrees, and only squinted slightly on the recliner for a moment, then got up to write the work arrangement. I heard that more than a dozen officials from the East Palace came, and it was estimated that all of them should have come, so I simply met them early, finished the scene, and started the official work.

"Big Garden." Zhu Cihong put down his pen and spit out three words.

Immediately, an attendant ran out and said to the Wenchen outside: "Pass the prince's order: I hereby order you to wait for the audience!" His voice dragged on long and sharp, and it was really a heavenly momentum.

The Wenchen outside immediately arranged the order according to the rank of the officials in the East Palace, divided into two columns, and entered the stream. Wu Weiye suddenly found that there were only a few people standing in front of him, a five-grade concubine, all of whom were senior officials who had little contact with him on weekdays.

He moved forward with the team without hurry, and saw that the newly renovated Duanli Gate was getting closer and closer, and there were actually five halls and three rooms, all made of precious golden silk nanmu. The painted wood carving is exquisitely made, and the vermilion lacquer has not yet been completely dried. The steps are tall, and the door is a leaf, and there are seven and forty-nine gold nails on it. The bronze gilt door knocker is made into a beast face swallowing ring, showing the wealth and magnificence of the heavenly family.

Of course, the plaque at the main gate cannot be written by Wen Tiren "Xinwangfu", but the prince Beppu has never lived in the history of the Ming Dynasty, so the ceremonial officials have begun to debate whether to use the word "prince's mansion". The Confucian scholars pay attention to the improper name and the words are not good, and at the same time, it also involves the question of whether the parents are "unfilial" when they live in Beppu, so this debate must be protracted, and I am afraid that when the prince leaves here, there will be no result.

Therefore, the current plaque is shrouded in yellow satin, and not a word is revealed.

Today is the first time that the subordinate officials have visited the prince and opened the middle door.

Wu Weiye entered with the team from the middle gate, and at first glance he saw the nine-dragon shadow wall in the image of a four-clawed golden dragon made of glazed bricks. After bypassing the shadow wall, there is a large courtyard covering an area of more than ten acres, in which tall pines and cypresses are planted, and several of them are still left in the Mengyuan era.

Passing through this courtyard, there are two gates. After entering the door, you can see the main hall of the palace carrying hall, which is commonly known as the Yin'an Palace by the people. The palace sits on a seven-foot-2-inch-high Sumeru seat and is made entirely of white marble. There are jade railings on both sides of the vertical steps, and the stone pillars are carved with flying dragons, wrestlers, immortals, etc., and each knife is extremely perfect.

The procession stopped in front of the carrier hall and did not immediately go up. Wu Weiye gently stepped on the green bricks under his feet with his official boots, which were firm and smooth, and there was no warping. Compared with the Wenhua Hall built a hundred years ago, it can better reflect the patience of the Ming craftsmen and the royal disregard for cost.

"Why don't you see music?" Someone in the group muttered quietly.

The atmosphere is indeed too paradoxical. Wu Weiye secretly said in his heart: It is natural that the prince does not show up, but along the way, there is no music arranged inside, what is going on? Is it bad to be happy?

"The prince is too disrespectful to the minister!" Someone complained.

"Mostly those castrations!" Someone else pointed the finger at the eunuch.

If Tian Cunshan was here, he would not let these ministers enter the door.
