The conversation between the two teenagers is simply a royal dispute, as a casual conversation.

There was no solemn and solemn feeling, and the tone was full of ridicule.

Zhang Zuo and Tang Yin couldn't help but glance at each other, only then did they know that Zhu Hao was "scheming", and he had long been prepared that the enemy would use the death of Zhu Si's brother to stir up trouble and drive a wedge between the new emperor and Zhu Hao, so he had already asked Zhu Si to ask, planting the impression that his brother's death had nothing to do with the Zhu family.

Zhang Zuo said: "This matter ...... The old slave heard about it, and the king of Lao Xing instructed outsiders to talk about the cause of the death of the eldest son...... It is inexplicably said that he died violently ......"

"Why?" Zhu Si couldn't help frowning.

"This ......"

Zhang Zuo didn't know how to answer.

Zhu Hao looked at Tang Yin with a smile and asked, "What does Mr. Tang think?" ”

Tang Yin thought for a while and analyzed: "I speculate that the first king did this, or he wanted to make the court feel that it was a loss to Xingwangfu, and it could also cause outsiders to be jealous, thinking that Xingwangfu will definitely strengthen vigilance in the future and will not give it another opportunity to take advantage of, this is the first king's strategy, right?" ”

Zhu Simei smiled: "Yes, yes, I think it's the same, my father is really resourceful." ”

Tang Yin glanced at Zhu Hao and reasoned again: "This may have another benefit, the people who specialize in monitoring the Xingwang Mansion in the Jinyi Guard will definitely use this to invite credit, so that Emperor Xiaozong of Daxing, the Queen Mother and others feel that it was the Zhu family...... Now Yang Ge Lao is sure that Zhu Hao and His Majesty are incompatible, or it has something to do with it, right? ”

Zhu Hao smiled and nodded: "The first emperor and the queen mother, Yang Ge Lao and the Queen Mother have a lot of schemes, plus my uncle is now taking refuge in Yang Ge Lao and opposing Shui Jiangbin, Yang Ge Lao should think that my Zhu family has no possibility of collusion with the new emperor." ”

Zhu Sidao: "Then your uncle ......"

"Your Majesty, the affairs of the Zhu family have nothing to do with me, when I was studying in the palace, they repeatedly threatened me, this matter should be very clear to Father-in-law Zhang, please don't associate me with the Zhu family, what they do has nothing to do with me." Zhu Hao expressed his attitude.

Zhang Zuo said with a smile: "This old slave can prove this, but what the Zhu family did at that time...... It should be regarded as their own master, now that Your Majesty has ascended the throne, how can the Zhu family dare to oppose Your Majesty? ”

Zhu Si nodded: "That's right, Zhu Hao paid a lot in order to stay in the palace to study." I am not an unreasonable person, even if the Zhu family really did something unfavorable to the Xingwang Mansion at the beginning, it would be loyal to the imperial court, but now I am the imperial court! They owe allegiance to me. ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Hao didn't feel anything, but Lu Song, who had been standing at the door, listened to it, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

Lu Song is the kind of thing he wants to hear the most, and now he is afraid that he will be found out that he is an undercover agent planted by Jinyiwei in the Xingwang Mansion and is being coerced.

But so far, no one seems to have come looking for him.

But in the end, Lin Baihu and the others are still alive, Jiang Bin is not dead, and the old people in Jinyi Wei are very clear about what they did to Xingwangfu back then, but now they are silent and dare not mention the old things again when the new emperor ascends the throne.

……

……

Bury the hatchet.

Zhu Si was in a good mood and pulled Zhu Hao to eat hot pot together.

A large number of ingredients were brought out from the palace, all of which were delicacies from the mountains and seas that could not be bought outside, or were so expensive that ordinary people could not afford to eat them.

However, some basic left materials still have to be made by Zhu Hao.

There is iced sour plum soup to drink during the meal, after all, it is close to the end of May, and the flying fire is close to June, and the group is sweating profusely to eat hot pot, which makes Zhu Hao miss the good days of having air conditioning, even if there is no air conditioner, it is not bad to have a fan.

"Come here, help fan ......"

Zhu Si was so hot that he asked Zhang Zuo to come over and be a human fan for him.

The banana fan was used, and Zhang Zuo deliberately fanned the wind to Zhu Hao's side, which made Tang Yin very envious.

After eating, a group of people sat down to chat, and the other side began to arrange singing.

"By the way, Zhu Hao, you hurry up and think of a way to let the concubine come to Beijing as soon as possible, and the people who come to Jingshi in Xingwangfu will basically stay in Anlu, if they live separately for a long time...... It's like Lu Song, he doesn't have the heart to work, right? ”

Zhu Si is very considerate of his subordinates.

Now a real problem is that Zhu Si was in a hurry to come to Beijing to ascend the throne, and it was impossible for the Xingwang Mansion team to drag his family with him.

Now that he has been on the throne for almost a month, Zhu Si wants to move the entire Xingwang Mansion to the capital, not only to reunite his mother and son, but also to reunite his subordinates and his family, so that he also has a greater sense of belonging in the capital.

Zhu Hao said: "Your Majesty, now the minister has just been admitted to the Jinshi, and he has not really settled down, and when he waits for June, the minister will find someone to rediscuss the ceremony, and I have discussed with Zhang Xuan after the palace examination, and then I will ask him to help, find someone to play together, and put pressure on Yang Ge Lao." Your Majesty, don't be impatient. ”

"Okay, let's do it as soon as possible!"

Although Zhu Si was anxious, he was not so urgent that he had to solve it immediately.

With Zhu Hao answering outside, he can often go out of the palace at night, no longer guarding an empty hall by candlelight every night, and his homesickness is not so strong, and he is not so eager to reunite with his mother.

……

……

That night, it was still Zhu Hao's review and recital.

Zhu Si may have been facing Yang Tinghe and other ministers step by step in the past two days, his heartstrings have been tight, and after watching the play, fatigue came well, and he rested early, and before returning to the palace tomorrow morning, he has seen the articles specially sorted out by Zhu Hao, and he can freely respond to the interrogation of Yang Tinghe and other ministers during the court discussion.

Zhu Hao doesn't need to record too many things, he can completely estimate which things may be used by civil officials to make a fuss.

Even if one or two pieces are occasionally dropped, Zhu Si in the court can completely shirk it, and if he doesn't remember after reviewing so many notes, he can't expect the emperor to remember every book he has read, right?

At least so far, Yang Tinghe and others have not been able to find a single mistake in the court, and Zhu Si has been able to answer every thing mentioned, and even more so, many of the handling plans are more complete and comprehensive than those set by the cabinet, and they have dismantled the traps carefully designed by Yang Tinghe again and again.

Zhu Hao has been very busy these two days.

As a new science and technology jinshi, or the champion, you need to complete a series of processes after the title of the gold list.

The first is the feast of grace on May 19.

The Enrong banquet was set up in the Ministry of Rites, and the order was presided over by Mao Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the Empress Dowager ordered the two brothers Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling to participate.

In addition, the banquet was attended by the ministers who read the papers in addition to the cabinet scholars, as well as the Luan Honor Guard, the Attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and the Honglu Temple, as well as the officials who received the papers, sealed them, received the palms, supervised the examinations, guarded the army, participated in the collars, filled in the lists, printed the papers, supplied, and praised them.

There are four people at a table, and there are tables in the back hall of the ceremonial department and in the courtyard.

There are nothing too good on the table, but you can see the meat, like bacon, smoked fish, roast duck and the like, and then there are five or six hot and cold dishes, and the last person has a bowl of fish soup, which has a little fish meat floating in it, which is actually sea fish, and it is not easy to eat sea fish in the inland areas of this era.

Zhu Hao, as the champion, was at the same table with Yang Weicong and Fei Maozhong.

There was basically nothing to say during the banquet, and they all listened to Mao Cheng's long speech.

……

……

On the twentieth day of May, the emperor gave the court a crown and belt, and all the jinshi gave some wealth, which was worth less than one or two pieces of silver.

The imperial court is also poor now.

On May 21 of the next day, led by the champion Zhu Hao, all the Jinshi jointly expressed their gratitude.

On May 23, the new scholars went to the Confucian Temple to perform the Cai Shi Ceremony, that is, the sacrificial ceremony.

By this time, Zhongxin Kejinshi was still only a jinshi and had not yet obtained an official position.

Until May 25, the official award by the Ministry of Officials, Zhu Hao for the Hanlin Academy, Yang Weicong and Fei Maozhong for the Hanlin Academy, all the Jinshi will be assigned to the ministry, the temple and the yamen to do things, that is, to observe the government, but also set the date of the examination for the Shu Jishi as May 26.

The Gurgis exam is also known as "hall selection".

Most of the candidates who meet the age want to enter the Hanlin Academy, and at least more than 100 new science and technology scholars will participate in the selection examination of the Kujishi.

The results of the Urgis examination are usually released on May 27.

The first three people do not need to take the exam, and will officially enter the Hanlin Academy on May 28 together with the new Keshu Jishi.

……

……

A set of processes went down, and Zhu Hao didn't feel anything.

On May 26, the selection examination of the Hanlin Academy was underway, and Zhu Hao met Zhang Xuan, who had been confirmed to observe the Ministry of Political Rites.

Zhang Xuan is old, there is no qualification to take the Jishi examination, look at the Ministry of Political Rites, it is estimated that he may be officially awarded an official within a year, fortunately stay in the capital as a small Beijing official, lucky to be put in the local area to supervise the imperial history, otherwise he will directly serve as the magistrate and other officials.

This time, Zhang Xuan took the initiative to come to Zhu Hao and wanted to inquire about the arrangements for the big ceremony.

"Brother Bingyong, have you contacted others recently to tell you what you think about the gift?" Zhu Hao made a temptation first.

Zhang Xuan shook his head honestly.

This kind of thing, to put it forward is to be the enemy of the mainstream of the imperial court, when Mao Cheng and others discussed the ceremony for the first time, they made it very clear that whoever has objections to the result is treacherous and should be punished.

In such a context, how dare Zhang Xuan easily leak his thoughts?

Zhu Hao sighed: "Brother Bingyong, you are a rat trapper!" Even if the Ministry of Rites has decided on a big gift, it will be discussed, do they dare to say that there is nothing controversial in it? As for the so-called treacherous theory, it is even more bluffing. ”

Zhang Xuan said: "So it's better for you, the champion, to put forward it, and it is better for the people who agree with it." ”

As if accusing, since you said you were bluffing, then why don't you go on it yourself? And let me go on top?

"Collaboration? Who else but you and me? Zhu Hao asked.

Zhang Xuan didn't know how to answer again.

Zhu Hao can see it, and now Zhang Xuan is full of success and fame, but he just lacks motivation, and to put it bluntly, he can't send an arrow.

Zhu Hao said: "If you really have a heart, I will take you to see Your Majesty, and Your Majesty will give you confidence...... You don't need to be co-signed by others, you can play alone! Even if you really commit a taboo, Your Majesty will do your best to protect it! As for me, I won't make a move, but I also want to hide behind the scenes, do things better for Your Majesty, everyone has their own strengths, and they should learn to divide labor and cooperate, instead of doing everything alone! ”
