From the early dynasty to now, there is nothing to say, Zhu Qizhen's forehead is hot, and Mu Ne was pulled away by the imperial chariot.

"Lord Yu!"

Yu Qian, who was walking outside the palace, looked back, and Chen Huai had already come up.

"Thank you just now!" Chen Huai said with a wink.

Yu Qian smiled faintly and replied: "I want to thank the emperor, thanks to the emperor's trust, you and I have the opportunity to coexist with the new army." ”

"The emperor wants to thank you, Brother Tingyi also wants to thank you, today I am the east, let's go to the drunken wind building to rub it, please take care of your top boss in the future!"

Yu Qian naturally didn't agree, but said with a straight face: "Governor Chen, the new army has the rules of the new army, you haven't reported it yet, you may not know much about it, the lower official will explain it to you first."

The first thing is that alcohol is not allowed in the camp, and the first offender will be punished for twenty, and the second offender will be expelled from the camp. The lower officials still have official business, so they won't accompany them much, and they will leave! ”

"Oops! Don't go, Yu Qian! Ay! Phew, what's the matter, relying on the emperor's favor and trust, he didn't take me seriously! Chen Huai saw that Yu Qian did not give face at all, and scolded angrily.

Wang Zhi and Hu Hu stood not far away and witnessed this scene with their own eyes.

Yang Shan, who was angry by Zhu Qizhen yesterday, sneered beside the two and said, "This Tingyi is inevitably a little too upright. ”

Hu Hu glanced at Yang Shan, and his tone was quiet: "Si Jing, the gentleman is harmonious but different." Do you have anything else to do? ”

Wang Zhi shook his head

"Then I'll go to the household department first, I haven't had a cousin for so long, I'm afraid I'm busy with this old bone." Hu Hu said with a wry smile.

"Brother Yuanjie will meet again! Brother Sijing will meet again. Wang Zhi said goodbye to the two of them separately.

"Yuan Jiegong and Gong Nunnery will meet again!" Yang Shan said unnaturally.

After the two Shangshu left, Yang Shan said with an unswerving face: "Yu Qian pushes up, do people accept your affection?" Still pretending to be noble here, hum ......"

He returned to the Ministry of Rites with words in his mouth, and he still had to report to Xin Shangshu, and his face became even more ugly when he thought of it.

At noon today, Zhu Qizhen did not call the ministers for dinner as usual, the first reason was that he was sick, and the second reason was that he was angry.

Not only Hu Hu and others, but also Cao Nai, although they are all defending themselves, they always leave the problem on themselves, what is the difference between this and helping the other party attack themselves in disguise?

If you want to say that Cao Nai didn't mean it, Zhu Qizhen naturally didn't believe it, he was the champion of Xuande for eight years, can you still understand this thing?

There was no urgent military situation today, except for a few military affairs that had been discussed in the early court, and the afternoon court was not held again. Zhu Qi Zhenle was leisurely, and after lunch, he lay alone in the dormitory to rest.

"Come on~" A vague figure appeared in front of him, and Zhu Qizhen was unconsciously attracted to it, but he was woken up before he could see it clearly.

"Your Majesty, Scholar Cao asks to see you." Jin Ying said softly.

Zhu Qizhen's body was shocked, he woke up from his hazy dream, and said with a little anger: "I don't see!" ”

Then he turned his body and turned his back to Jin Ying, who didn't say anything and waited quietly for three seconds.

I saw Zhu Qizhen turn back angrily again, and said reluctantly: "Let him wait in the main hall." ”

Although Zhu Qizhen was unhappy, he could still distinguish the severity, and he also guessed the reason for Cao Nai's coming, which was nothing more than to show loyalty.

After some freshening up, Zhu Qizhen came to the main hall and sat on the throne of the Nine Dragons, Cao Nai also saw that Zhu Qizhen's face was not good-looking, and he waited until Zhu Qizhen sat down before he slowly spoke.

"Your Majesty, the minister has come to ask the emperor for his guilt!" He knelt down as he spoke.

"Scholar Cao, today is majestic." Zhu Qizhen's face was still grim.

Cao Nai did not defend but said: "I don't know if the emperor wants a real help, or does the minister have no real support?" ”

Zhu Qizhen frowned and asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”

Cao Nai's voice was still unhurried: "If the minister just blindly defends the emperor today, the emperor may face greater pressure in the future, and the minister will be completely excluded from the court by Hu Shangshu and them." ”

"Are you saying that you deliberately made them think that you were a mercenary person, and that by letting you become a scholar, you could accumulate strength to support me?" Zhu Qizhen questioned.

Cao Nai nodded and said: "Exactly, it is also the emperor Shengming who has the current situation, after all, too many ministers have died in civil engineering matters......

Now I am in charge of the second department of soldiers and rites with Yu Shangshu, and Gao Gu is the left waiter of the Ministry of Works, so I can actually compete with Hu Hui! ”

Surprisingly, Zhu Qizhen was not too excited, he looked at the cabinet chief assistant quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.

They were interrupted by the arrival of another person

"Your Majesty, Hu Hu and Hu Shangshu are here."

Cao Nai stopped talking and looked at Zhu Qizhen, Zhu Qizhen thought for a while before saying, "Cao Nai, you go back first, put the affairs of the Ministry of Rites in order, and tell me if there is anything that can't be decided." ”

"Yes!" Cao Nai's cheeks overflowed with joy.

"Take Scholar Cao out, and bring Hu Hu in." Zhu Qizhen said to Jin Ying.

Seeing this, Cao Nai hurriedly retreated, followed Jin Ying out of the palace gate, and said softly when he passed by Hu Hui: "Thank you Yuan Jiegong today." ”

Hu Hu was still so light-hearted, nodded lightly and said, "Me too." ”

What did he mean by that? ’

In Cao Nai's suspicious gaze, Hu Hu followed Jin Ying into the main hall, and Cao Nai's doomed question had no answer, so Cao Nai had to hide it in his heart and take it back.

"Minister Hu Hu, respectfully invite the emperor to Sheng'an!" Hu Hu bowed when he entered the door.

Zhu Qizhen didn't speak, just raised his hand.

Hu Hu was not polite, and sat aside when he saw this.

took out a note in his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has not been in office for a long time, but there is indeed an urgent matter that you need to deal with at the moment, please ask the emperor to take a look." ”

Jin Ying took Song Shu away and put it on Zhu Qizhen's desk, but Zhu Qizhen didn't look at it, still covering his forehead.

"If there's anything to talk about, I don't want to see anything." Zhu Qizhen said weakly.

Hu Hu didn't force it, and said: "The music is some data support for the minister's performance, and if the emperor has any questions about the actual situation, you can find the answer in the performance." The main reason why the old minister came this time is to report to you the situation of the treasury. ”

Hu Hu paused, and seeing that Zhu Qizhen did not react, he continued: "This year, in addition to the daily expenditure budget, you will spend 2 million taels on your own levy, 1 million taels on guarding the Beijing Division, and 1.8 million taels on the bereavement of the deceased. ”

Zhu Qizhen already knew what Hu Hu was going to say, so he deliberately asked: "Hu Hui, are you trying to persuade me to let go of the tax levied on the official land according to the people's land?" ”

Of course, Hu Hu shook his head, he looked at Zhu Qizhen with a straight look and said, "Your Majesty, please postpone the establishment of a state-owned commercial bank." ”
