The New Year is approaching.

After the young year, in the palace of An Luxing, Princess Jiang found Yuan Zonggao and Zhang Zuo and asked about her son's situation in Beijing.

“…… The Changshi Division has played in advance, asking the court to let the prince return to the palace as soon as possible on the grounds that An Luxing has no owner and many things cannot be carried out, but the performance is sparse, but it is like a deep sea, and it has not been approved, or it has not been reported to His Majesty, or it has not been ...... in the middle of the "

Yuan Zonggao means that I have worked hard and have done everything I need to do, but the court refuses to release people, and I can't do anything on my side.

Zhang Zuodao: "Yuan Changshi, can you urge a few more times?" I heard that His Majesty has gone to Nanjing, if he does not return to Beijing for a long time, will this matter of being enthroned have to be delayed forever? ”

Yuan Zonggao looked at Zhang Zuo, with a deep meaning in his eyes, as if conveying a thought...... You've answered all the answers, and you're asking me why?

Princess Jiang sighed: "Don't embarrass Yuan Changshi, this is the decision of the imperial court, if the imperial court intends to embarrass my palace, it will definitely delay the matter indefinitely...... I just don't know if the son of the world is good in Beijing? ”

Zhang Zuo said: "The princess relaxes, the prince has a special person to protect him in Beijing, and he usually has Mr. Tang and the young master of the Zhu family to teach knowledge, except for the people who are not in Anlu, the rest are no different from the palace...... With Mr. Tang's eloquence and strategy, he will definitely live up to the entrustment of the previous king. ”

These words are clearly choking Yuan Zonggao.

Yuan Zonggao listened to it and felt very awkward.

You said that Tang Yin was eloquent and strategic, so what did I become?

In the end, did the deceased King Xing entrust his son to me, or Tang Yin?

Princess Jiang's face was full of sadness: "As long as my son is not troubled by others and can study with peace of mind, I am afraid that he will be away from home for a long time, not suitable for life in a foreign land, and no one will take care of him when he is sick...... If there is anyone in the palace who can be sent to Jingshi to take care of daily life, send it together. ”

Yuan Zonggao said: "There is no explicit order from the imperial court, I'm afraid it's inappropriate." ”

Zhang Zuo said: "Yuan Changshi, even if we are all courtiers, we should think more about the prince at this time, even if the court lets the prince wait to be sealed in Beijing, it doesn't mean that people have to be locked up and not allowed to see guests, right?" Is it forbidden to send a few people to take care of you? ”

Yuan Zonggao said in his heart, Zhang Gonggong is clearly singing against me.

Today is the same as taking gunpowder, every sentence is against me, I was blamed by the court for something wrong with my feelings, and then I ordered to reprimand and reprimand the poor supervision, it's not your person who serves the division, right?

Isn't it that I, the long history, will be harshly criticized by the imperial court?

But Yuan Zonggao didn't want to chatter in front of Princess Jiang, so he could only bow down and salute: "Everything is up to the princess." ”

……

……

Xingwangfu wanted to send the third group of people to the capital to take care of Zhu Si's daily life, but he didn't know that the news sent back by Jingshi was not just to comfort Princess Jiang, Zhu Si's small life in Jingshi was indeed good.

There is no restriction on personal freedom, there is no delay in schoolwork, and in addition to the previous teaching of the Four Books and Five Classics, the teaching of the art of the emperor has been added, and Zhu Hao's teaching can be said to be close to reality and hit the nail on the head...... Usually, Zhu Si will also come into contact with all kinds of interesting things, and he has been left in all parts of Beijing......

said that Zhu Sile at this time did not want to return, and he did not wronged him at all.

However, for Tang Yin and other staff and subordinate officials of the palace, the more the New Year passes, the more anxious they are.

“…… A few years ago, Jiang Mengzai had taken someone to the Jianchang Marquis Mansion to give gifts, and the gift was accepted, but I don't know if the Marquis of Jianchang went to the palace to speak for the prince, and it was rumored that His Majesty didn't know anything about the prince's entry into Beijing, but it was the queen mother and His Majesty's close ministers Jiang Bin and others who planned to do so, and no one knew about the succession of the prince, and His Majesty couldn't remember such a thing at all......"

On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, Tang Yin summarized what he learned and told Zhu Hao.

It's all the truth.

Where does Zhu Houzhao have the heart to care about his cousin? It was all made up by Empress Dowager Zhang and Jiang Bin...... Of course, there is also the effect of Zhu Hao and Zhu Wanhong behind the scenes.

Zhu Hao said: "I think there is nothing wrong with the prince staying in Beijing. ”

Tang Yin sighed: "It's easy to be controlled by you, isn't it?" ”

"It can't be called control, it should be called learning from each other, the prince has grown up very quickly during this time in Beijing, learned to meet outsiders alone, has a lot of understanding of the things in the market, and knows the people's livelihood and suffering, I really can't figure it out, he returned to Anlu, returned to the prison cage of Xingwangfu, what is a good thing for him. After inheriting the throne of King Xing, if you want to leave Anluzhou City one step further, you will be stared at and impeached, so what does it mean? ”

In Zhu Hao's opinion, don't look at Zhu Si like a caged bird now, but he has a high degree of freedom, if he returns to Anlu, he will really become a caged bird, and he is a flashy canary.

Xingwang Zhu Youqi left Anluzhou City and went to the river embankment to condole, and was participated by Zhang Yezheng, the then Zhizhou, the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty could not leave the territorial city casually, and the court had been guarding against the local vassal king like a thief.

"Then do you think it is more appropriate for the prince to return to Anlu?"

Tang Yin tried to ask.

Even Tang Yin himself thinks that An Lu is good, at least in the past few years, he has a sense of belonging to his family.

Zhu Hao said: "It's hard to say, maybe Your Majesty suddenly remembered that there was such a thing, and issued an order to canonize it, and the prince could go back, otherwise, at the end of next year...... Whether you need to go back is another story. ”

"Where do you start?" Tang Yin was puzzled.

Zhu Hao thought to himself, did you tell you that the foolish emperor fell into the water and contracted illness on the way back to Beijing in history, and died soon after arriving in the capital?

If that is the case, it is estimated that Yang Tinghe will play the imperial court and let King Xing stay in Beijing temporarily, so that he will not have to prepare to meet the new emperor in the place, and he will be able to become the emperor by stuffing people into the palace on the spot.

But this is not the effect that Zhu Hao wants to pursue.

Temporarily controlling Zhu Si is one of Zhu Hao's plans, but it is also necessary to let Zhu Si return to Anlu smoothly before Zhu Houzhao dies.

Only in this way can the initiative to inherit the throne be firmly in the hands of Zhu Si, if he has been staying in Jingshi and waiting to be pushed into the Jinluan Palace by Wenchen, the result is likely to be that Zhu Si has been a puppet...... The controversy over the Great Rites Debate needs a reason to show Zhu Si's toughness in a timely manner.

……

……

During the Spring Festival of the fifteenth year of Zhengde, others gathered with their families, but the personnel of Xingwangfu in Beijing were far away from their families and homesick.

New Year's Day.

The capital is bustling with activity all over the city.

Zhu Si didn't have to go to class and asked to take him out to play, Jiang Lun was going to see Zhang Yanling, the Marquis of Jianchang, that day, but he was told that Zhang Yanling had closed the door for the past two days.

"It's clear that I received money and didn't want to do anything."

Jiang Lun mentioned this matter when he greeted Tang Yin for the New Year.

It was only at this time that he realized that the friend Zhang Yanling he had made had no effect at all.

Tang Yin looked at the vehicles on the road absentmindedly, and suddenly turned around and asked, "Where is Zhu Hao?" ”

"Huh?"

Jiang Lun disagreed, "Mr. Zhu is not on your side, that is the side of the deceased son......"

"No, how could he not call me when he died? I haven't seen anyone since I woke up this morning, so could it be that he has some plans that I don't know about? ”

Tang Yin felt uneasy in his heart, he couldn't see Zhu Hao on the first day of the new year, he felt that Zhu Hao had some conspiracy behind his back.

But in fact, Tang Yin is really hearty.

Because Zhu Hao was busy preparing his laboratory in Beijing that day......

When he came back at noon, Tang Yin had already blocked people in the courtyard where Zhu Hao was staying, and Zhu Hao asked dissatisfiedly: "Didn't you say okay, don't you come here less?" Not afraid of being stared at? ”

Tang Yin said directly: "Why did you go?" ”

As soon as Zhu Hao told him about his itinerary, Tang Yin was strange in his heart and looked over puzzled.

"It's coming soon...... Now that His Majesty is not in Jingshi, it is estimated that there is no hope for the palace test after the trial, I may have to stay in Jingshi for a year and a half, and the affairs of Anlu cannot be left behind, and science and technology need to be updated at all times, so after all, it is related to my net worth. ”

What Zhu Hao means is that even if I am in Beijing, I can't delay making money.

Zhu Hao said: "At the beginning of the year, the number of candidates from all over the country who came to Beijing to take the exam will further increase, and I am going to go out to meet with them to discuss learning, but I was asked about the teacher's inheritance......"

Tang Yin frowned: "I'm embarrassing you, right?" ”

"Not really."

Zhu Hao said with a smile, "I don't want to disgrace Mr., at this time, Mr. has a lot of responsibilities on his shoulders, and it is better to be an invisible person for the time being...... By the way, sir, you'd better meet that Mrs. Zhu more recently, she is very lonely in Beijing, and she wants to talk to someone about a lot of things, and you have been ...... lately. It seems to have left people out in the cold. ”

The person mentioned by Zhu Hao is naturally Lou Suzhen.

Since Lou Suzhen and Zhu Hao arrived in Beijing, they arranged a small courtyard for her to live in, raise flowers and grass, and usually embroider and paint.

Tang Yin was not good at "starting" because King Ning was alive, and sometimes he was bored and didn't dare to face Lou Suzhen alone.

Zhu Hao can only understand that Tang Yin, a middle-aged and elderly man, has suffered setbacks in his relationship and is a little afraid of women and does not dare to face his heart.

Tang Yin heard Zhu Hao mention Lou Suzhen, and his face was not good.

was dragged by Zhu Hao to see Zhu Si.

……

……

On the afternoon of the first day of the first lunar month.

The imperial court sent people to deliver the decree, but it was not the emperor's decree, but the queen mother's decree.

Empress Dowager Zhang praised Zhu Si's filial piety and willingness to learn in Yizhi, and urged him to study hard...... sent two palace maids over to serve, and almost scared the lively Zhu Si to the point that his legs were weak.

Everyone will guess that the Queen Mother's purpose is to plant eyeliner next to Zhu Si, inform the palace of Zhu Si's every move, and then if she wants to attack him Zhu Si, someone can act as an internal response at any time.

"Zhu Hao, what do you say about this? People are in the backyard, and they say that they will stay outside my room at night, and they won't ...... Assassinate me, right? ”

Zhu Si panicked, Tang Yin on the side was a little transparent, and only asked Zhu Hao's opinion.

Zhu Hao smiled: "Don't worry, if the Queen Mother really wants to attack you, you don't have to wait until now, this is the capital ......."

Tang Yin also echoed: "Being a courtier, being frank and upright, you don't need to worry about whether you will be harmed by those in power, it's really not that necessary." ”

In Tang Yin's opinion, it is as easy for the Queen Mother to pinch you to death as it is to pinch an ant to death, so why use some unconventional means?

Zhu Si still didn't believe it: "If you don't teach and punish, the people of the world will definitely criticize it, so you want to secretly murder it." ”

Tang Yin frowned.

Zhu Si usually looks big and grinning, but his sense of crisis is far stronger than ordinary people.

But no...... A little too timid?

Zhu Hao said: "The Queen Mother is just arranging eyeliner around you...... Maybe she was dissatisfied with the information reported by Dongchang and Jinyiwei on a daily basis. But have you ever heard of the anti-plot? It's an opportunity for us. ”
