When the sky was getting brighter, at about half past five in the future, Zhu Youzhen got up.

Ever since he became the Ming Emperor, it has been this routine.

Chen Yuanyuan served him to change clothes, wash and breakfast.

According to reason, Zhu Youzhen should go to the queen mother to ask for peace first, but there is no queen mother in Nanjing today, and the royal family members are very withered, and only the surviving Empress Yi'an has the longest seniority.

However, after all, uncles and sisters-in-law are different, and they are also peers, so Zhu Youzhen naturally doesn't need to ask Zhang Yan for peace.

Basically, it was either the queen Zhou or the concubine Yuan who accompanied Zhu Youzhen to breakfast.

Sometimes it was too late to discuss political affairs in the Qianqing Palace, and Zhu Youzhen slept directly in the Qianqing Palace, so he could only dine with Chen Yuanyuan.

Zhu Youzhen doesn't like to eat alone, the so-called beautiful and delicious food, there are no beautiful women to eat together, how can you have a hungry appetite.

In troubled times, it was not the beginning of the country, and the so-called etiquette requirements were not so strict, and the imperial historians did not dare to care about how the emperor himself lived under the iron-blooded rule of Zhu Youzhen.

He is now the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, according to the specifications, even the breakfast is extremely rich, after all, the basic dietary equipment of an emperor is 20 catties of meat a day, 20 catties of soup meat, chicken, duck, fish and geese.

However, Zhu Youzhen withdrew all of them on the grounds of cherishing national strength, and now he is just a bowl of white porridge, a meatloaf, and an egg in the morning.

The eunuch Han Shoujing, the master of ceremonies, always talked about this with others, and he was full of tears, saying that His Majesty was thrifty and unmatched.

After breakfast, Zhu Youzhen began to deal with government affairs, and the celebrant and eunuch on duty would also appear next to Zhu Youzhen at this time.

It is Wang Chengen who is on duty today.

Wang Chengen is an old eunuch who works beside Zhu Youzhen in Beijing, so he is naturally closer to Zhu Youzhen, but since Wang Chengen took charge of the East Factory, he has also been a little more decisive.

"How's the net going?"

Zhu Youzhen yawned, changed positions with Yuan Guifei last night, and played for a long time, so that he was still a little sleep-deprived.

"Back to Your Majesty, Fang Guoan's head, Ma Ge Lao presented it last night, Ma Degong's head also arrived this morning, and the flying pigeon in Hangzhou sent a message saying that Tian Xiong was missing! It is estimated that Gao Zongbing has also succeeded. ”

After Wang Chengen answered, he presented the two wooden boxes to the front of the emperor.

"It's a pity that there is no formalin, these are all precious specimens of brain scientific research", Zhu Youzhen said coldly and secretly, and without opening it, he asked Wang Chengen to take it out and burn it.

"As soon as these three people die, the side of His Majesty's couch is also considered to be Da'an, Fang Guo's Security Department and Ma Degong's Department have been successfully pacified by Ma Shiying, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and now they are assigned to various guards, and those who are willing to return to the peasants are also sent, and the diehards of the two have all been executed, and Tian Xiong's department is estimated to be absorbed by Gao Jie's general army, and now only Zhang Shenyan in Nanjing City and those restless protégés behind him are left", Wang Chengen said with a smile.

Zhu Youzhen smiled slightly, Fang Guoan, Ma Degong, and Tian Xiong have no value in existence, and being eliminated at this time can naturally make the situation more stable, and in the future in the entire Ming Dynasty, the only one who can really threaten Zhu Youzhen's military rule is Zuo Liangyu, a super warlord, and the three thousand cavalry of Huaining Hou Sun Weicheng have also become the bag of the Second Army of the Guards at this moment, and it is only a matter of time before they are eliminated.

"Zuo Liangyu is still in Huguang, these three people are divided, plus Sun Weicheng has been surrounded by the Second Army of the Guards, he Zhang Shenyan and the other Donglin Party are just grasshoppers after the autumn!"

Zhu Youzhen was talking, and the crown prince Zhu Cihong and his two younger brothers came to the Qianqing Palace to ask Zhu Youzhen for peace.

Zhu Youzhen let the three of them walk in, and looking at the three princes in front of him with a confused look, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but sigh.

Although the Manchu Qing Dynasty was not in every way, the cultivation of the prince was very effective, and the now ruling Shunzhi Xiaofulin annexed the Dolgon forces and his son Kang Mazi Zhi to eliminate Aobai, which has been filmed into many Qing court dramas in later generations.

However, for Zhu Youzhen, it is better for the prince to be mediocre now, otherwise it will be enough of a headache to really fight for power with his father.

"Send a message to the speaker of the East Palace, the prince will leave the palace with me this afternoon, and the homework will be postponed until the evening!"

After Zhu Youzhen finished speaking, he looked at the fifteen-year-old boy Zhu Cihong in front of him, Zhu Cihong did not complain because he had to make up his homework at night, he smiled slightly, but he also had the cultivation of a royal child.

If he hadn't crossed over by himself, this young man would have been betrayed by his grandfather at this moment, and then his life would end in this fifteen-year-old flower season.

Thinking about it now, Zhu Cihong is also a poor person.

"Zhu Cihong, have you ever thought about what you should do if I am gone, what should you do if the Ming is handed over to you", Zhu Youzhen patted Zhu Cihong's head and asked.

Zhu Cihong shook his head and replied blankly: "Erchen doesn't know, Father, you are prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, and you will live for a hundred years." ”

Zhu Youzhen sighed, although the obedient child does not cause trouble, but also lacks a sense of aura, for the rule of the world, such a prince will be on the throne in the future is not a good thing, but for the troubled times, for himself, for the entire Ming Dynasty, for the entire Chinese nation, it is a tragedy.

Think about it, in my previous life, I didn't live under the blessing of my parents, although I was rebellious, I didn't do anything out of the ordinary, and it was only later that I encountered various walls in society and encountered various crises before I slowly learned to be independent.

Perhaps, the crown prince Zhu Cihong needs a less comfortable environment, although the Hongzhi Emperor Zhu Youzhu has a cowardly personality, but the tragic life of his childhood gave him insight into the interests of the people, so as to know what kind of ministers can govern their own country, although Zhu Cihong's personality is unchangeable, but he may also need to face some pressure to gradually mature.

After the situation is stabilized, it is necessary to follow the wishes of the hundred officials, accept some concubines, and accumulate heirs, and the royal family struggle is inevitable, but if you don't fight, you can't choose the best prince.

Zhu Youzhen is confident that he can resist the southward movement of the Manchu Dynasty, but he can't be sure whether he can live enough to allow the Ming Dynasty to go on the Northern Expedition, after all, no one knows how long his life expectancy is, and if his successor is not good enough, how to fight with Shunzhi and Kangxi, these Manchu chieftains.

Well, Zhu Youzhen found a legitimate reason for opening a harem for himself, and even he couldn't help but feel funny, and even outside the palace, he couldn't help but take a few more glances at the beauty of Nanjing City, thinking in his heart, who could be his next concubine.
