Zhang Zuo left.

Outside the gate of the inner courtyard, Zhu Hao and Tang Yin will also say goodbye.

"I don't know about the palace hiring new teachers, do you have eyebrows?"

Zhu Hao stopped and specially asked about the appointment of a new gentleman by the palace, after all, the township test is coming, even if he has the heart to continue to teach Shizi, Shizi's homework must be replaced by a special person.

Could it be that when he went to the provincial city to take the township exam, Zhu Si's studies had to open the skylight?

Tang Yin shook his head and said: "Right now, King Xing is in trouble, who still has the heart to take care of the matter of hiring teachers?" Don't worry, if it comes to the time of your Dabi, I will teach the affairs of the prince in the palace, and I will do my best. ”

There's nothing wrong with that.

At this time, the most concerned thing in the palace is the condition of King Xing, coupled with the cooperation of Tang Yin and Zhu Hao, the master-apprentice, the knowledge of the prince has been steadily improving, how dare the palace invite a teacher who does not know the root to come to the palace at this stall?

The Xingwangfu has always needed to complete layers of review in hiring teachers, and the relationship is complicated, which is also the fundamental reason why it is so difficult to ask for teachers.

Zhu Hao said: "Why doesn't Mr. take on more teaching work recently?" I'm ...... I don't have much time to prepare......"

Tang Yin said impatiently: "I also want to help you, but there are a lot of affairs in the palace right now, and I can't spare my hands for a while." Oh yes, what did Zhang Fengzheng mean by what he said just now? ”

Zhu Hao was speechless.

You're very busy right now, so let me go up and teach, so you'll be free when I go to the township exam?

"He probably said about the orphan."

After Zhu Hao finished speaking, he didn't bother to explain in detail and went directly.

Tang Yin pondered for a moment and suddenly came to his senses.

When it comes to the issue of entrusting Gu before King Xing's death, and the ranking of the real power figures in the palace in the future, Zhang Zuo must not be treated carelessly. Even if Yuan Zonggao's Changshi Division is firmly suppressed by him now, it is not certain who the prince will rely on after succeeding to the throne, no matter what level, King Xing will hand over the chief position of Tuogu to Yuan Zonggao.

Tang Yinxin said, no wonder Zhang Zuo has been jumping up and down recently, he has a sense of crisis and wants to fight hard. Zhu Hao, this kid, is more accurate than anyone else.

……

……

The matter of rejuvenating the king and entrusting the orphan is indeed in full swing.

Not only did Zhang Zuo rush around for this, wanting the whole palace to recognize his ability, but he also tried his best to win over Tang Yin and Zhu Hao, the two masters and apprentices, and tried his best to make his camp lineup look more deep and thick, so as not to say that in the negotiation of major affairs in the palace, there was a situation where no one presided over it and lagged behind the palace chief Shi Si.

In terms of loyalty to the Xingwang Mansion, Zhang Zuo asked himself to be higher than Yuan Zonggao, but if he talked about ability, he ...... There is a high probability that King Xing will still entrust his child to Yuan Zonggao, an old courtier who was born in Jinshi and has been in the palace for 20 years, and feels that it is more secure, as a domestic slave, he has to trust Zhang Zuo and never be able to bear the heavy responsibility of entrusting orphans.

Tang Yin secretly observed for a few days.

found that Zhu Hao had no sense of tension at all about the changes in the power structure of the palace after King Xing's death.

What he didn't know was that Zhu Hao was secretly planning a "big conspiracy", no matter who Xingwang entrusted Gu to, he would keep Zhu Si away from his control, and stuff Zhu Si into the Beijing division to forcibly "isolate".

At that time, the palace will not let Yuan Zonggao and Zhang Zuo, who are on the surface, accompany them, otherwise they will lose the purpose of controlling Zhu Si, but Zhu Hao and Tang Yin, as the people who hide in the shadows of the Xingwang Mansion, can not be restricted by the will of the imperial court, and they can go wherever they want.

If Zhu Hao successfully passes the township examination and goes to Beijing to participate in the examination, everything will be logical, if Zhu Si has no relatives in Beijing, only Zhu Hao can help......

Whoever of you is commanded to be orphaned, stand far away for me.

……

……

Entering May.

A relatively far-reaching event happened in Jingshi, that is, Zhu Houzhao finally couldn't help but attack Ning Wangfu.

Originally, a bunch of people around the emperor spoke for King Ning, and there were many people who were bribed by King Ning, and even Lu Wan, the secretary of the ministry, secretly communicated with King Ning, the bad thing was that Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, wanted to stuff his son into the palace as the crown prince, and the coveting of the throne was too explicit, plus the close ministers around the emperor took bribes, and the spoils were unevenly divided......

This involves the contradiction between Jiang Bin and Qian Ning.

King Ning gave Jiang Bin and Qian Ning more bribes, and Qian Ning has always had more bribes than Jiang Bin, but the problem is that Qian Ning has gradually lost power in recent years, and Jiang Bin wants to crack down on political enemies, so he naturally can't get used to King Ning's flattery of Qian Ning, so he secretly made a small report and told Zhu Houzhao about the situation in Jiangxi that he investigated.

Zhu Houzhao was very angry when he heard this, and was ready to send a delegation of envoys at the level of the Heavenly Regiment, including the eunuch Lai Yi, the concubine Du Wei Cui Yuan, and the Du Yu Shi Yan Yishou, to go to Jiangxi to warn King Ning and prepare to take back the guards of King Ning's mansion.

The holy decrees have been drafted: "The uncle is in the clan, the subordinates are expected to be respected, and the courtiers are courteous." But the road is circulating, not without suspicion. In the past, Yan Shun, the deputy treasure of Fuzhong, went to Beijing to play your lawlessness, but I was not credulous.

"Recently, the officials have also played one after another, and you are bound to plot against you. The courtiers all said that it was a matter of national planning, and it was advisable to take a long-term view and not take it lightly. I miss my loved ones and don't dig deeper. However, forbearance and mutual suspicion are not the best of both worlds.

"In the past, my Emperor Xuanzong, because of the troubles of the Zhao Mansion, sent the horse Yuan Rong and others to be ordered to admonish, that is, he repented, returned the guards, and became rich and noble. Today's envoy sent a letter to advise that this can be imitated.

"Now you return the guards and tuntian, return the land of the officials and the people you have taken, and dismiss the thieves. This is my love. ”

Zhu Houzhao can be regarded as "valuing love and righteousness" in this matter, but what he did was not very kind.

When King Ning heard that someone in Jingshi was going to take away his guards, the first thing he realized was that his rebellion was exposed, and he would not delve into it if he said that he was reasonable, but after I handed over the guards, wouldn't it be equivalent to a lamb to be slaughtered? That would only force me to rebel.

So, after King Ning heard the news, he stepped up preparations for rebellion, and took advantage of the fact that the envoys did not arrive, and gave the counter-incident.

……

……

End of May.

Zhu Hao saw Zhu Wanhong again.

Zhu Wanhong warmly invited Zhu Hao to sit down and talk, and his speech and demeanor were extremely cordial, as if he regarded Zhu Hao as his own son.

Zhu Hao has only seen this appearance on Jiang Lun.

But Jiang Lun is obviously more sincere than Zhu Wanhong, and Zhu Wanhong's hardcover appearance is too fake, where can he escape Zhu Hao's sharp eyes?

“…… Virtuous nephew, a few months ago, my uncle listened to your advice, and in his secret report to the imperial court, he mentioned that he could use King Ning to rebel, so that His Majesty could make a smooth tour of the south, and even drive the royal expedition in person. Isn't His Majesty worried about the fact that the ministers of the DPRK and China obstructed his southern tour? I thought, if I force King Ning to rebel, won't it be a matter of course?

"I guess recently, your uncle and I may be promoted and make a fortune...... Ha ha. It's all thanks to you, my good and smart nephew. ”

Zhu Wanhong looked proud.

Zhu Hao squinted: "Uncle is not afraid that he will be commanded by Qian to know that you are secretly communicating with Jiang Bin?" If Qian Ning gains power, I'm afraid he will kill you, right? ”

Zhu Wanhong shook his head with a smile: "Qian Ning is not as good as before, although he is still in the position of the commander of the Jinyi Guard, but in fact, he has no real power in his hands, but he just didn't give him a fatal blow!" Besides, I only said that King Ning's rebellion would make it impossible for the ministers of the court to obstruct His Majesty's southern tour, but I didn't mention that Qian commanded the envoy half a word, as for Ping Yubo to know about it...... I didn't leak it to him. ”

From Zhu Wanhong's names for Qian Ning and Jiang Bin, Zhu Hao knew that Zhu Wanhong was a typical type of rudder who saw the wind.

Probably because Zhu Wanhong suffered great humiliation when Qian Ning was in power, and his resentment towards Qian Ning came from the bottom of his heart, and now he has a rare opportunity to take revenge, and he will definitely not show mercy to his subordinates.

Zhu Wanhong's defection to Jiang Bin is the trend of the times.

After all, Qian Ning was already in the twilight, and he didn't have to wait for Zhu Si to ascend the throne, and Zhu Houzhao was half in the coffin when he was still alive.

In history, Qian Ning was in Zhu Houzhao's "Imperial Driving Expedition", when he stayed in Beijing, he was denounced by Jiang Bin, who was driving, Qian Ning was robbed of his post and his family, although he did not die, he has been in a slump since then, and forcing King Ning to rebel is basically Jiang Bin's careful move in order to eradicate the fierce enemy and cater to the needs of the emperor's southern tour.

The situation dictated, Zhu Hao naturally wanted to use Zhu Wanhong's mouth to remind Jiang Bin in advance that he could do this.

In this way, he not only sold his favor to Zhu Wanhong, so that he could continue to cooperate with him with peace of mind, but also let history develop on the right track, so that there would not be a situation where King Ning rebelled against Zhu Houzhao and did not drive in person...... If Zhu Houzhao does not follow the trend of history and hangs up in these two years, wait until he dies...... That will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey?

"Then I wish you a speedy ascension, uncle." Zhu Hao got up to leave.

Now that there is about to be a big funeral in Xingwangfu, Zhu Hao has to be prepared to be found out that he is secretly dealing with Zhu Wanhong, and now Yuan Zonggao is holding back his strength to find him trouble, and it will be a big trouble if he is really discovered.

Even if he can say that he and his uncle are just routinely meeting, it can be said that he was calculated by Zhu Wanhong and had to do it as a last resort, but Zhu Hao knows that more is better than less at this time, and he will not take the initiative to cause this kind of trouble.

It's best not to let people find out about his dealings with Zhu Wanhong.

"Zhu Hao, I know that King Xing's condition has deteriorated recently, and he can basically only lie on the couch, and it is estimated that he will not last much time, a child like you, it may be difficult to protect himself in this kind of whirlpool...... If you have something, tell your uncle, and your uncle can be on call. ”

Zhu Wanhong looked very enthusiastic, "In addition, when the uncle has a good relationship with Uncle Ping, the uncle will secretly help you, so that you can gain more favor from the prince." Just wait for the good news from your uncle. ”

In the previous sentence, Zhu Wanhong was basically self-inflicted.

But in the latter sentence, his hint is obvious, if Jiang Bin can really trust him, then Zhu Wanhong will further assist Zhu Hao and get Zhu Si to be a hostage in Jingshi, of course, Zhu Hao has never begged him for this matter, it is basically a hint.

The two play dumb riddles with each other, but each can understand what the other means.

Zhu Hao nodded and left.

Finally, Zhu Wanhong is not too stupid, and he knows that he will take advantage of Jiang Bin's trust, so it is in vain for me to remind you, and suggest that Jiang Bin use King Ning's rebellion to successfully solve the emperor's inability to tour south...... Let you earn a vote for nothing.
