Yang Tinghe took the initiative to ask for help, and also said that it only took one day to solve the problem.

It can be seen that he is really going to do something.

As for his response, whether he will adopt a policy of gentleness or suppress it with iron-blooded and high-pressure hands, the ministers in the court cannot predict.

After the end of the court meeting.

On the way back to the cabinet room of several cabinet ministers, Jiang Mian felt a little regretful: "It was I who did not think it through, so that this situation occurred."

After all, Jiang Mian is the titular examiner of the examination.

But in fact, the main things that started were all done by Shi Xuan, and Jiang Mian was just the nominal examiner.

Yang Tinghe shook his head and said, "It's not important."

Meaning, even if you weren't the examiner, the situation would have gotten to where it is today.

Jiang Mian smiled bitterly, "That...... How will you deal with this? I'm afraid that I will cause too much criticism from the scholars...... From the following point of view, the main thing should be to calm the matter."

Jiang Mian meant, let's try to adopt a gentle strategy, as long as those scholars know that they are wrong, they don't have to use ruthless moves.

In Jiang Mian's opinion, there is no need for Yang Tinghe to use some extraordinary means to deal with scholars, in the end, the first assistant of the cabinet is nominally the leader of the world's scholars, and the boss can't take the younger brother under the knife, right?

"A combination of rigidity and softness is the best policy."

Yang Tinghe also wants to be gentle.

The previous self-examination in the court gave the reader a saying, isn't it a gentle strategy?

What is the result, everyone has seen it, those scholars don't appreciate it at all, and they still feel that the court is weak and can be bullied, and they don't dare to do anything to them, and now they dare to run to the crying temple, so is the next step to rebel?

It is true that you are scholars, but your target now is not the emperor, but me, the head of the cabinet.

Since you're pointing the finger at me, wouldn't it be cowardly and incompetent if I didn't fight back?

……

……

Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Hao entered the palace again, this time he was invited by Zhu Si to let Zhang Zuote take him into the palace, dressed in brocade clothes and guards, I don't know if I really thought he was a handsome young army general.

"Your Majesty."

Zhu Hao respectfully saluted Zhu Si.

Zhu Si smiled and said, "Respectfully, you are here, I always want to call you Zhu Hao, I have been called this since I was a child, I have long been used to it, and I always feel a little obstructive when I suddenly call the table character...... On the contrary, they always reminded me that you have become a pillar of the imperial court, and you cannot always be called by your name."

For no reason, Zhu Si actually cared about the issue of the title.

Zhang Zuo was smiling beside him, as if he was very accustomed to this unreasonable way of dialogue between monarchs and ministers.

Zhu Hao smiled, "Your Majesty's title doesn't matter what."

Zhu Si got up, came to Zhu Hao, and said emotionally, "Speaking of which, I haven't taken you on a tour of the palace yet, my home."

"Your Majesty......"

Zhang Zuo was originally full of smiles, but when he heard this, he hurriedly reminded him.

Even if you don't avoid suspicion, or really treat Zhu Hao as a confidant, you can't mess around! If you take a tour of the palace, there are so many old people in the palace, some of them are the people of the Empress Dowager Zhang, and some are inextricably linked with the outside of the palace, which is not equivalent to selling Zhu Hao?

"Need you to remind me?"

Zhu Si stiffened his face, "I know that now is not the time. Actually, I also want to introduce the queen to you, as well as her father...... It stands to reason that they should be able to help you."

Zhu Si is now an "adult" who is married.

Although he still wants to have children, after the young man gets married, his dependence on his wife's family will gradually increase, especially for an existence like Zhu Si, who has not long been the emperor and has an unstable foundation.

This is also the reason why all dynasties in history know that it is easy for relatives to interfere in politics, but relatives will always rise.

In terms of the Ming Dynasty's governance of foreign relatives, it is already very good, basically only appointing the military positions of the governors of the five armies, and most of them are temporary posts and not real vacancies, and the Ming Emperor elects the queen

There is a habit of audition from the people, and basically does not marry with wealthy families, which makes the foreign relatives of the Ming Dynasty just like that.

The Zhang family is an exception.

However, the two brothers of the Zhang family are not angry, which is equivalent to being blind to the unique superior conditions, and they have failed the opportunity for the good relatives of the Hongzhi and Zhengde dynasties to rise.

Zhu Sidao: "I will turn around and let Chen Guozhang meet you."

Zhu Hao nodded: "I'm afraid that there will be too many people, and some things are not easy to explain."

"I understand, but in my opinion, Chen Guozhang has no power in the court, and he doesn't even have a title yet, so I'm thinking about what to seal him...... It stands to reason that he should be a feudal uncle, but the Zhang family is a feudal marquis or even a feudal prince, so I should be able to do it here, right?"

Zhu Si now wants to rely on the people of his wife's family, maybe the young couple has just gotten married, and when their love is lingering, they feel that they should promote his wife's family more.

But Zhu Hao knows very well that no matter what you say, Zhu Si is a ruthless emperor in history, whether he is a monarch or a husband and wife with him, he is the type who can share hardships and hardships but cannot share wealth and prosperity, when he feels that he is full-fledged, he feels that he can soar into the sky, and it will not be easy to hold him at that time.

Zhu Hao said, "Everything is better according to the law."

"Okay, I'll listen to you in this matter."

Zhu Si still has the highest trust in Zhu Hao as always.

Zhang Zuo felt very awkward in his heart.

The emperor wants to give the title to the emperor, but he also has to listen to Zhu Hao?

So what is Zhu Hao?

Is it too emperor?

……

……

It is rare for Zhu Hao to enter the palace, and now he is still on vacation, Zhu Si has not seen Zhu Hao for several days, and he took Fa Xiao's hand and said a lot of things.

even asked Huang Jin to go to the treasury to get a wooden box and hand it to Zhu Hao, which was full of books treasured by the palace.

"I don't know what gift to give you, so I'll ask someone to find some unique books, you are used to reading books, and you are good at researching this, so I will give it to you."

Zhu Si is very generous.

Zhu Hao hurriedly got up and bent down, arched his hand, and said, "Your Majesty, such a generous gift, the minister does not dare to accept it."

Seeing that Zhu Hao was so solemn, Zhu Si waved his hand to signal Zhu Hao to sit down again, and said, "If you take it, you can take it, what else do we monarchs and ministers share with each other?"

Zhang Zuo smiled and said, "Mr. Zhu, these books have been carefully selected by His Majesty, and they should be suitable for you."

"The minister will keep it for the time being." Zhu Hao said.

"Okay, keep it on your behalf, I will be the emperor for a day, these books will be yours."

Zhu Si said with a smile.

Immediately, the two talked about the uproar outside about the fraud case of the examination, as well as the matter of the scholars crying at the temple.

Zhu Si was triumphant: "You don't know how happy I am to see the gray face surnamed Yang today, now he can't check it, and it's not ...... As you said, as soon as things get up, there will be a huge rift between him and the scholar, and it's up to him to see what he does."

Zhu Hao had expressed his interest in this matter to Zhu Si before.

Not for the result, but to forcibly create contradictions between Yang Tinghe and ordinary readers.

Up to now, everything that the reader does seems to be nonsense, for a thing that has no evidence at all, and he doesn't even know what he is pursuing...... Is it in order to let the imperial court investigate Li Sunsin and Yao Lai? Or do you want to check whether Yang Dian is really capable of taking the Gongshi examination?

But now, the momentum of the readers' uproar is getting stronger and stronger, and they are simply making trouble.

Zhu Hao said: "The scholars are now angry, but they must be suppressed and not allowed to shake the country."

Zhu Si smiled and said, "I originally wanted to ask you if you should add a fire appropriately. Since you said you want to be restrained, I will listen to you...... What do you think is going to happen next?"

Zhu Hao said: "It's still the old way, in this matter, Your Majesty only needs to help Yang Ge Lao on the bright side, no matter what, as long as it is beneficial to Yang Ge Lao, Your Majesty will come forward to help as much as possible, and even be partial, so that people can't find fault with it."

"Hehe, I know, actually

It's just to make the scholar feel that I was coerced by the surname Yang, right? Am I smart?"

Zhu Si's face was dumbfounded.

No matter how much hatred he had for Yang Tinghe in his heart, at least in this matter, he had always listened to Zhu Hao and did not argue with Yang Tinghe.

It's just that now Yang Tinghe has also woken up, and the little emperor did this, which was to push him Yang to the front as a shield, so that Yang Tinghe could bear the ten thousand arrows of those scholars piercing his heart, and when he was the emperor, he only needed to watch the excitement behind his back, and he could say a few cool words if he had nothing to do...... Yang Qing's family, you have worked hard, they all misunderstand you, but I absolutely trust you.

Zhu Hao said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, in this situation, no matter whether Elder Yang Ge is in power or not, you should help him, so as to reflect Your Majesty's selfish magnanimity. Perhaps now that Elder Yang Ge is convinced that His Majesty has contributed to this matter, His Majesty just wants to make him embarrassed."

"Oh?"

Zhu Si looked puzzled.

Zhu Hao said: "Your Majesty should sincerely help him and let him tide over a crisis, so that he will feel that he has misunderstood His Majesty's kindness with the heart of a villain, so that His Majesty can also rein in the hearts of the ministers of the court and the central government, so that they can feel that His Majesty has done his best to help in such matters concerning the reputation of Yang Ge Lao."

Zhang Zuo was taken aback when he heard Zhu Hao's words.

How else can you do this?

If you don't add fuel to the fire, you really want to help Yang Tinghe?

Isn't it good to see Yang Tinghe have a bad reputation?

What do you say......

It sounds reasonable, but you pour cold water on our emperor at this time, can Your Majesty listen?

Zhu Si was stunned at first, and then slapped his thigh: "It's still respectful that you have a high realm, why didn't I think of this?"

Finish.

When Zhang Zuo heard this, he couldn't smile bitterly.

Now Zhu Hao is in the eyes of the emperor, that is, Kong Ming is alive, Zhu Hao farts, the emperor smells fragrant, as for what Zhu Hao says and does, it is even reversed back and forth, so that the emperor is pulled up and down, left and right, and the emperor will be extremely respected.

It's like being sold and helping people count the money.

Zhu Hao said, "Your Majesty, in this matter, we have to attack Yang Ge Lao's prestige, not from those scholars. In the eyes of those discerning people or courtiers, most of the scholars are unreasonable, complaining and venting their emotions regardless Chinese of the causes and consequences, and what His Majesty wants to collect is not the hearts of those scholars who make trouble, but the hearts of the courtiers and generals, and it is even more important to make Yang Ge feel ...... Your Majesty is broad-minded, and it no longer makes sense whether he stays in the court or not."
