The final battle of the Great Rites Conference is about to begin.

On the civilian side, the most active are the officials of the Hanlin Academy and the six sections, while the directors of the six departments and Lang Zhong people are in contact through the people of the six departments, but because of Zhu Hao's involvement, the middle and lower-level officials of the six departments are not too involved in the discussion of ceremonies, but the Hanlin Academy and the people of the six departments basically talk about "principles" and their positions are extremely firm.

Once there is a decisive battle, they will inevitably charge forward, and they are the main force gathered at the gate of the palace.

On the emperor's side, because Zhu Hao had predicted in advance what would happen in the coming day, Dongchang and Jinyiwei were in full swing to schedule.

Huang Jin took the current Jinyi guard commander Zhu Chen to find Zhu Hao, and the location was in the theater run by Zhu Hao.

"Another day of making money." Zhu Hao faced Huang Jin and Zhu Chen, who came to him to do things, and what he said seemed to have nothing to do with the major events in the future. Huang Jin asked, "Mr. Zhu, I don't know if it's the wonderful play today, or the big drama that will be staged tomorrow?"

Zhu Hao looked at Huang Jin and smiled slightly, Huang Jin also learned to joke with him. "It's all wonderful."

Zhu Hao said, "Tomorrow is nothing more than arresting people and making a fuss, don't make things too stiff, but if something really happens out of control, you can't be blamed······ This is a showdown between the two major factions of the imperial court, and it is inevitable."

Huang Jin hurriedly asked, "Is there really no way to avoid it?" Probably Huang Jin also had a headache.

It seems that the matter of the coming day is that the contradiction between the monarch and the minister always erupts, and the factory guard is just acting according to orders.

But in terms of the general trend of history, the factory guards who help the emperor arrest people tomorrow are destined to be nailed to the pillar of shame, after all, the people who control the power of historical annotation are civil officials.

Besides, who knows how long Zhu Si can live?

In case in the next ten years and eight years, Zhu Si dies and has no son, and another emperor comes up, then the new emperor will probably have to liquidate the human affairs that happened in the Great Rites Meeting.

"You can only try to downplay it, but you can't avoid it." Zhu Hao smiled.

Because of the advance warning, the civil officials on the side of the secretive, lest they avoid the situation, when the civil officials know that going to the palace gate to kneel and admonish will face the factory guards punching and kicking, sticks and sticks, it is inevitable to be frightened, how to think carefully before leaving, weigh the pros and cons, and the factory guards are also very headaches, after all, to the scholars, it is destined to be stinking for 10,000 years.

The effect is actually two-sided, both sides are jealous, and the actions are restrained, and the things in the future will not be as intense as in the original history.

Zhu Hao is also thinking in his heart, he really tried his best, and hopes that things can develop in a good direction. ......

......

In the theater building, Zhu Chen left first and went back to decorate.

Huang Jin stayed and asked about the new commander of the Jinyi Guard.

······ Gonggong Zhang has informed him that at the end of the year, Commander Zhu will be transferred to the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, and it will only be a few days before the Communist Party is gathered, because the successor has not been decided, and the efficiency of Jinyiwei's work has seriously declined, and even some important errands have been delayed. Huang Jindao.

Zhu Hao said, "Shouldn't you wait for Your Majesty's order?"

Huang Jin smiled bitterly and said, "According to Gonggong Zhang, His Majesty completely obeyed Mr. Zhu's advice in this matter."

It means that Zhu Hao has the final say on who is the commander, as long as Zhu Hao says who can be the commander, the emperor will agree to let whoever be.

This is where Huang Jin is helpless, although he also admires Zhu Hao, but as a servant in King Xing's mansion, he naturally hopes that the little master can be more like a majestic king, instead of relying on Zhu Hao to make decisions for him.

Zhu Hao asked, "With Huang Gonggong's intentions, who is more suitable to succeed him?" "This······ Don't dare to talk nonsense."

Huang Jin's character is like this, extremely restrained, even more cautious than Zhang Zuo, with a sense of humility in his bones, and the emperor did not give the factory guard too much authority, so he must maintain restraint.

Zhu Hao said: "Follow your relatives

In terms of distant and close relationships, I prefer Luo Zhenfu, who has done things in the past, he has been in charge of the Beizhen Fusi for two years, and the case has been handled very well, and it does not make people worry and disappoint. But from the perspective of His Majesty's selection of people, I still think that Wang Zuo is more suitable, and extraordinary times require extraordinary people to stabilize the situation."

Huang Jin thought for a moment and nodded, "In terms of the ability to judge things, it is indeed Wang Zuo who is superior. But Your Majesty didn't say ······."

Zhu Hao smiled, "Do you want to say that Jinyiwei wants to help His Majesty gather wealth? Your Majesty should know that the factory guard is the foundation of maintaining the stability of the family and the country, and if you collect money with the edict and prison, it will become a black prison, how can the court have a peaceful day?

"At present, the imperial court is indeed short of money, but it does not mean that it has to accumulate wealth in this way, Your Majesty still hopes that the factory guards can maintain the stability of the Ming Dynasty."

"Oh."

Huang Jin was a little relieved when he heard this.

To say that apart from Zhu Hao, who else can understand the emperor's thoughts?

Previously, everyone thought that it was necessary to decide who would be the commander of the Jinyi Guard with the ability to collect money, just like selling the official title, but it was indeed not easy for the Jinyi Guard to collect money.

Zhu Hao said: "I heard that the recent cool officials in the Jinyi Guard often attack the dignitaries and dignitaries of the Shuntian Mansion, and even those with titles will not be spared, this trend will not last."

"Uh······ Yes." Huang Jin hesitated.

He thought to himself, it seems that Mr. Zhu proposed it before, to develop a few people who can do things and dare to do things in Jinyiwei, right? He also said that he wanted to use these people to attract the firepower of the imperial historians in the court, so that this uncool official would have a place to use? And now you're saying you want to converge?

"At the right time, the interior of the Jinyi Guard needs to be rectified, but let's focus on tomorrow's things first." Zhu Hao spoke, but his eyes were still looking at the stage.

Huang Jin pondered for a moment, although he understood every word of Zhu Hao, he didn't seem to understand it very well. Tomorrow's events are indeed important, but what does it have to do with the internal rectification of the factory guard?

And when is the so-called "due time"? If you really want to rectify it, who will rectify it? Is it to rectify the system or to rectify the people?

Huang Jin couldn't help but wonder in his heart, sure enough, the thoughts of the close ministers around the emperor were not easy to guess, as if they had said everything, but they didn't seem to have said anything, which meant that they should often come to visit and inquire in the future, otherwise it would be easy to deviate in doing things, and it seemed that the factory guards would ····· All of them will fall into the hands of this little champion from Jinyiwei.

······.

Zhu Hao didn't mean to play dumb riddles for Huang Jin.

As the emperor's most trusted staff, Zhu Hao usually didn't feel that there were so many magnificent things in the court that he needed to deal with, and when the Great Rites Conference was over, the Ming Dynasty would be stable for a long time, and it would be composed of small things accumulated day by day, just like looking through a volume of "Actual Records", and found that the things that an emperor experiences every year are almost all small things, and he may not be able to encounter a far-reaching major event in a year or two.

Zhu Hao told Huang Jin to rectify, more to remind that the factory guard, as the maintainer of the Ming order, must first ensure that there is no internal chaos. From the perspective of a minister like Zhu Hao, it is necessary to put the power of the factory guard in a cage.

Although Zhu Hao himself was born in Jinyiwei, he knew very well that once the power of the factory guard was not controlled, the court would fall into a state of darkness and boundlessness, the courtiers would become officials in fear, and the people would also have to worry about being plundered by inexplicable power, and the final result would ······ It's that society is in darkness.

Zhu Hao wants to develop capitalism and market economy in Daming, and a dark society is not what he wants to see.

He not only wants to suppress the power of officials, but also pulls out the fangs of the factory guards, and even the imperial power wants to be properly pressed down····· As the emperor's most trusted courtier, this is actually very contradictory, not only to help the emperor consolidate the imperial power, but also to keep the imperial power within a reasonable range, so that there is still room for contradictions and conflicts between the monarch and the minister, so that the two sides can form a game for a long time.

It's not easy, it's all about balance.

"It seems that after the Great Rites Discussion, it will be my turn to make decisions for those civil officials." Zhu Hao looked at the stage and muttered to himself. There was another knock at the door.

"Childe, Lord Su asks to see." Su Xigui is here again.

Zhu Hao let Su Xigui enter the private room, Su Xigui bowed down directly, kowtowed to Zhu Hao, and said, "The grass people meet Zhu Shilang."

The last time we met, Zhu Hao was just a Hanlin cultivator, and now he has become a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, and he is already qualified to enter the cabinet.

Zhu Hao smiled and said, "Lord Su, are you making fun of me? Get up, get up, I haven't officially taken office yet, no, I didn't even go to today's court meeting, and the third resignation has already been handed in."

Su Xigui got up from the ground with a smile on his face. "Zhu Shilang, I heard that there will be a big event in the DPRK and China in Japan?" Su Xigui made it clear what he meant.

It seems that the emperor has not issued an edict yet, and the civil officials have not responded, everything is calm, but the wind has been released, and the stunned youths of the Hanlin Academy and the Six Departments are ready to occupy the palace gate to play a death sentence, and many people in the court have received the news, and now they are waiting for the emperor to make a move, and those young civil servants have come out to resist.

Zhu Hao nodded: "It seems that everyone knows." How is it that a confidential matter suddenly becomes known to the public?" Su Xigui smiled: "Do you think there is such a possibility, someone is deliberately releasing news outside?"

"Oh."

Zhu Hao nodded, "You don't want to say that that person is me, right?"

"No, no, the contemptible people have no such intentions, the contemptible people just want to say that it is better to have news than no news, at least Your Majesty's side can also be prepared, so as not to let the so-called clear stream in the DPRK and China come to chaos, but I am afraid that tomorrow's events will have too much impact, so that the court will not be able to maintain stability."

Speaking of which, Su Xigui is actually testing to see how far the contradictions will break out in the future. is not only asking for Huang Zhan, but also asking for himself.

Zhu Hao said: "The court is not a matter of one or two days, Your Majesty's insistence has not changed, but it is the colleagues in the Hanlin Academy, their proposition for the ceremony has always been gradually retreating, but unfortunately now it has finally reached the point where there is no way back, it depends on how far they will make trouble tomorrow." But even if the trouble can't end and there is bloodshed, the court after tomorrow will not be the court?"

"Uh······"

Su Xigui heard it, Zhu Hao meant that he was not afraid of big things tomorrow.

Zhu Hao sighed: "It seems that after tomorrow, there will be a large number of official vacancies in the court, and many people will fill the positions."
