Zhu Si and Zhu Hao had the biggest contradiction since they met.

It's not to the point of irreconcilability, because now Zhu Si hasn't said that he will be able to get rid of Zhu Hao and do it himself, he still has to worry about the problem of his throne not getting right, without Zhu Hao by his side to give advice, he still has no bottom in his heart.

"Mr. Zhu, Your Majesty just wants you to stay away from the strife in the court, don't take it to heart."

Huang Jin was responsible for sending a message to Zhu Hao, and at the same time informing Zhu Hao of the news that Zhang Xuan was about to return to Beijing and become a bachelor of Hanlin again.

Zhu Hao didn't seem to feel any surprise at this.

"If you have any comments, you can play it directly, and Dongchang will submit it to you for you, and you don't have to be in the cabinet." Huang Jin meant, even if you have a bit of a stiff quarrel with the emperor now, you can still play directly if you have anything, and you don't have to worry about anything.

The East Factory can present you with a note.

Zhu Hao smiled and bowed: "No need, I also want to be quiet for a few days recently, speaking of which, I have always thought of Qing cultivation in the Taoist temple." ”

"Taoism?"

Huang Jin was stunned at first, and then seemed to think of something.

Hasn't Zhu San always been a Taoist aunt in Taoism?

Could it be that there is something unspeakable between Zhu Hao and the eldest princess?

No matter what, Huang Jin can't ask more, if it is true, if there is anything to do with Zhu Hao and Zhu San, if the news spreads, the royal face will be damaged.

Even if he knew, he could only pretend not to know.

……

……

The news that Zhang Xuan was going back to the capital did not stir up much in the officialdom, but in the Hanlin Academy, almost everyone was talking about it.

Recently, Xu Jiegang got Zhu Hao's support and became a Hanlin attendant.

Originally, Zhu Hao didn't plan to promote him, but Zhu Si seemed to care about cultivating more party henchmen for Zhu Hao, so he took the initiative to raise Xu Jie.

Zhu Hao previously planned the promotion route for Xu Jie, but Xu Jiejie did not follow it, but now he has been taken care of by Zhu Hao and has become a Hanlin attendant, surpassing the same science and technology at once, which is simply infinitely glorious.

Many people were jealous of him.

On this day, Liu Chun went to the Hanlin Academy, specially met with Xu Jie, and went to Yang Yiqing's public house before leaving, after the two sat down, Liu Chun talked about the emperor's transfer of Zhang Xuan back to Beijing: "...... His Majesty did greet the Cabinet, but only by notice; As for the officials, I don't know what the situation is. You don't think about it. ”

No matter in terms of seniority and age, Liu Chun is inferior to Yang Yiqing.

A person like Liu Chun is already an absolute veteran minister in the DPRK, but in front of Yang Yiqing, he is still a bit of a primary school student.

Yang Yiqing waved his hand: "It's okay." ”

It seems that Yang Yiqing is not too jealous of Zhang Xuan, after all, he was driven away by Zhu Hao casually, and he had to rely on Zhu Si and Zhu Hao to return to the dynasty when there was a dispute over ideas, how much of a threat could he have to him?

"Renzhong, there is one thing I have never been able to figure out, how do Your Majesty and Jing Dao get along?"

Yang Yiqing didn't understand why Zhu Hao insisted on going his own way this time, as if Zhu Hao could completely avoid being involved in this kind of thing, he didn't mention it himself, even if others had opinions about him, they would be stopped because of the emperor's protection.

But Zhu Hao clearly jumped into the fire pit.

Liu Chun smiled and shook his head.

This move not only means that he doesn't want to explain to Yang Yiqing, but it can also be understood that he doesn't know either.

Yang Yiqing said: "I heard that Jingdao was born in Xingwangfu, but he was born in Jinyiwei, and he grew up with His Majesty, or he has the affection of a monarch and a minister." Renzhong, you have a good relationship with like-minded people, you should know more about Jingdao, right? ”

"I don't know."

Liu Chun smiled bitterly, "Many things have to be understood by yourself, but Your Majesty respects Jingdao very much, which is a well-known fact. It is said that when Jingdao was in Xingwangfu, he had already won the trust of Emperor Xingxian, although he was still young at that time......"

He only says what he can say, and he won't take the initiative to mention what he can't say.

Yang Yiqing nodded.

Liu Chun was about to leave, and someone came over to communicate: "Liu Gelao, Yang Butang, and the celebrant Zhang's father-in-law's car has arrived at the gate of Hanlin Academy." ”

Yang Yiqing glanced at Liu Chun, probably saying, he came with you to make an appointment?

Liu Chun shook his head blankly, as if he didn't understand why Zhang Zuo came at this time.

……

……

In front of the Hanlin Courtyard, Yang Yiqing and Liu Chun came out with a few people to greet them.

Zhang Zuo has come to the Hanlin Academy many times, and when he suddenly saw this scene, he was still a little uncomfortable for a while, when had he been so courteous in the past?

"A few ......"

Zhang Zuo originally came to talk to Yang Yiqing, and he was about to leave after speaking, but he never thought that so many people were there.

It's hard for him to say anything.

Liu Chun said with a smile: "If you want to go back to the cabinet next, I won't bother much." ”

Liu Chun said goodbye to the people behind him, and many of his colleagues from the Hanlin Academy who came out also went back to their rooms.

The others were almost dispersed, and Zhang Zuo didn't enter the door, but just called Yang Yiqing aside and whispered: "Your Majesty ordered, saying that it was Gui Cao who was in charge of the ceremony." ”

Yang Yiqing's face did not change.

Zhang Xuan returned to the Hanlin Academy as a Hanlin Bachelor, which Yang Yiqing can understand, after all, Zhang Xuan was originally a Hanlin Bachelor, and was squeezed out by Zhu Hao.

But let Gui Cao be a bachelor of Hanlin and also preside over the ceremony, what does this mean?

I, Yang Yiqing, am about to give up my position as the secretary of the ministry and only be a bachelor of Hanlin, and as a result, the three of us will compete with me for the post, so who is in charge of the Hanlin Academy?

To give me a Hanlin bachelor is to leave me aside, not to give up real power?

Yang Yiqing asked, "...... is the position of the secretary of the ministry?"

Zhang Zuo smiled and shook his head: "Your Majesty has not mentioned it, and it will probably be decided after the court pushes." ”

The implication is that you, Yang Yiqing, still have to hand over the position of the secretary of the ministry, and as for who to give it to, we will discuss it later.

Yang Yiqing suddenly understood that it didn't seem easy to use his influence to change the pattern of the Ming court.

The first is that the emperor refuses to give up power.

"We're just here to mention it to you, and we're leaving." After Zhang Zuo finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave in a carriage.

Yang Yiqing chased after him and asked, "Will Gonggong Zhang go to see Zhu Jingdao in the near future?" ”

"Huh?"

Zhang Zuo looked back for a moment, and didn't understand what Yang Yiqing meant by this.

Yang Yiqing said: "There is a sentence I want to bring to him, I can't go in person, I wonder if Grandpa Zhang can make it convenient and help with a word?" ”

Zhang Zuo wanted to say, I can't go to see Zhu Hao recently, but he wants to know what Yang Yiqing wants to say to Zhu Hao.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Zuocai said, "Master Yang, please speak." ”

Yang Yiqing said: "I want to tell him that the Hanlin Bachelor is not suitable for him, and he should take the initiative to resign, or serve as a minister in the Sixth Ministry, or go to the local governor to be a governor, which will help him experience and lay a solid foundation for entering the dynasty in the future." ”

"Huh."

Zhang Zuo thought to himself, this is what you want to say to Zhu Hao?

It seems that you still don't know that Zhu family Xiaolangjun, don't look at Zhu Hao's young age, but people's knowledge may not be worse than you Yang Yingning, and he still has experience...... Why didn't you say this directly to the emperor? You also said that you asked me to convey it, in fact, you just want to use my mouth to tell Your Majesty what you think?

Zhang Zuo didn't say whether he would convey this to Zhu Hao and started again, because he understood that Yang Yiqing's words didn't seem like he was saying to Zhu Hao at all.

Then Zhang left the carriage and left.

……

……

"Jingdao went to the Taoist temple? The surname Yang said that Jingdao left Beijing to be a local governor? What the hell do they think? ”

Zhu Si got a message from Zhang Zuo and Huang Jin respectively.

With his head, he couldn't figure out what Zhu Hao and Yang Yiqing's purpose was for a while.

Zhang Zuodao: "Your Majesty, from the old slave's point of view, Master Yang wants to tell Your Majesty that if you use Mr. Zhu too early, the current situation will appear, no matter whether Mr. Zhu has merit or not, others will not recognize him, and even treat him as an outlier." ”

Zhu Si sneered: "Then Zhang Xuan is not an anomaly?" ”

Zhang Zuo said helplessly: "After all, Mr. Zhang is there for his age, and in the eyes of outsiders, his knowledge and qualifications will be higher, but Mr. Zhu is different after all." ”

Zhu Sidao: "I am also a young man, so they will also think that I am not qualified to be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, right?" Young people can't take care of the government? ”

Zhang Zuo originally just wanted to help the emperor understand Yang Yiqing's intentions, but he didn't expect to inspire Zhu Si's inferiority complex and blind self-confidence.

"Has the imperial sister returned to the capital?"

Zhu Si suddenly thought of something and asked.

Huang Jin shook his head: "No." ”

"Then what are you doing in the Taoist temple? Besides, he has always been respectful of the imperial sister, does he also want to be a Taoist priest now? ”

Zhu Si couldn't help but ponder about this matter.

Zhang Zuo seemed to think of something, and asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, do you remember that before you ascended the throne, Mr. Zhu had a lot of his own opinions on the overall situation of the world, and sometimes some prophecies seemed to have spied into the heavens. Will it be ......"

Zhu Simeng took a breath of cool air and nodded again and again: "It's extreme, it's extreme, the truth must be like this!" It is said that Jingdao has a mysterious master, like a half-immortal-like character, known for 500 years, and known for 500 years, it is this kind of strange person that can cultivate such a powerful disciple of Jingdao! ”

For a while, Zhu Si, Zhang Zuo and Huang Jin all figured out why Zhu Hao went to the Taoist temple to practice.

It turned out that Zhu Hao was going to return to what he was supposed to do.

Huang Jin hurriedly said: "Then Your Majesty, did the master behind Mr. Zhu mention him and ask him not to be in a high position in the court for the time being?" ”

"Hmm."

Zhu Si didn't say anything, just responded simply.

Zhang Zuo also said: "So it makes sense...... Obviously, Mr. Zhu has won His Majesty's absolute trust, and has the opportunity to help His Majesty Kuang Fu Sheji, and even holds the position of Zaifu, but he resolutely refuses to go. It's because there is someone behind him to guide him, or Mr. Zhu's destiny has not yet been completed. ”

Zhu Sidao: "If this is the case, then I misunderstood him, he must have spied on the future national fortunes of the Ming Dynasty and wanted to change something in his own way." ”

Originally, no one was willing to resolve the contradiction between Zhu Si and Zhu Hao, just because Zhu Hao said that he was going to practice in Taoism, everything disappeared into invisibility.

Zhang Zuo said: "Then Your Majesty, how should I make arrangements?" ”

"If he wants to go to the Taoist temple, then go there."

Zhu Sidao, "If he has a way to find the elixir of immortality for me, it will be even better." ”

Zhang Zuo was originally very happy, but after listening to Zhu Si's words, he was speechless for a while.

What does this little emperor think about all day long?

Why do you suddenly want to live forever?
