The first to get the news that Zhu Hao was transferred to Nanjing as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry were the four cabinet ministers.

Fei Hong was summoned by Zhu Si alone, the emperor never seemed to attach so much importance to Fei Hong, in this meeting, Zhu Si mainly mentioned two things, one is to let Zhu Hao go to Nanjing, and the other is to discuss with Fei Hong the possibility of Yang Yiqing entering the cabinet, and at the same time to determine who Yang Yiqing left behind should be given the post of secretary of the ministry.

"My idea is to transfer someone from the current cabinet to the post of secretary of the ministry. I don't know what Fei Ge Lao thinks? ”

Zhu Si wanted to disrupt the current cabinet structure.

In the cabinet, stone? and Jia Yong are both members of the Guardian Sect, and the recent cabinet has been negative and conservative in the draft of some votes, as well as the docking with the six ministries, which makes Zhu Sisi angry at the same time, and feels that the current cabinet personnel structure is very unreasonable.

The best thing to do is to put the stone? or one of Jia Yong's to get out, or even drive away together.

Fei Hong said: "Stone? He used to be a secretary of the ministry, or he had experience. ”

He just said his most intuitive feelings, and did not mix them with personal emotions at all.

Zhu Si nodded.

In fact, Fei Hong can see that the so-called transfer of a cabinet scholar to the secretary of the ministry is just a better face, and it is estimated that this person will not be the secretary of the ministry for more than two months, and he will be ordered to return to his hometown.

Stone? and Jia Yongzhong, there must be someone who will be ousted by the emperor because of his position.

"Who else in the court is suitable to be the secretary of the ministry?" Zhu Si asked.

Fei Hong said: "The ministers don't know how to promote, but at present, among the six Shangshu and Shilang, there are also officials who can take on this important responsibility, even if the Nanjing officialdom is ...... There are suitables, too. ”

Fei Hong will not directly recommend Huang Zhan.

In fact, Fei Hong knows, if it is a stone? If he didn't come to be the secretary of the ministry, he would probably have to hand over the post of secretary to Huang Zhan, except for these two people, he really couldn't think of a more suitable candidate.

"Jing Dao may leave for Nanjing after a while, and he won't stay in Nanjing for long, his task is to help me complete an important thing."

Zhu Si didn't mention that Zhu Hao was looking for an elixir for him, it was just a good wish, Zhu Si felt that he was young and should not worry about this aspect for the time being.

Fei Hong naturally wouldn't say anything about it, and Zhu Hao's departure from the capital was a good thing for him.

"Your Majesty, there is currently no prince in the country, please ask Your Majesty to accept concubines."

Fei Hong made his suggestion.

Zhu Si nodded.

The matter of accepting concubines, the minister is no longer in a hurry, the most anxious is the Empress Dowager Jiang, who is entangled in the stomach of these daughters-in-law has not moved, for fear that Zhu Sibu will follow in the footsteps of his cousin.

"Okay, I'll remember, let's get back to it."

Zhu Si was not very interested in concubines.

It's because he thinks that he is in the prime of life, so why should he be in a hurry to have a child?

I'm still a kid myself.

Zhu Si even felt that the emperor deserved it well, why did he have to establish a prince? What do you want to do after the death? If I die, then does it make any difference who will be the emperor?

……

……

Before Zhu Hao left Beijing, he stayed in Taiqingguan.

Occasionally, someone came to visit, and when they saw him doing nothing in the Taiqing Temple, or even just escaping here, the visitors felt that Zhu Hao might be pursuing Tang Yin's realm of idle clouds and wild cranes without desire.

After Liu Chun learned from Fei Hong that Zhu Hao was going to Nanjing to take up a post, he came to Taiqingguan to see Zhu Hao twice.

The second time, the emperor had announced in the court that Zhu Hao would be transferred to the secretary of the Ministry of Industry in Nanjing.

encountered some opposition, but not much, because Zhu Hao's transfer to Nanjing seemed to be something that could be accepted by everyone, as long as Zhu Hao did not stay in the capital to interfere with the stability of the court.

"Jingdao, I really can't figure it out, what are you trying to do?"

Liu Chun asked with a drooping face, "A few days ago, I exchanged letters with Zhitong, and after he learned about your current situation, he was also secretly anxious about you. Since you want to make a difference in the court, you shouldn't care about other people's prejudices and abilities, why don't you want to show it, but just dodge? ”

Liu Chun tried hard to persuade Zhu Hao to cheer up.

Zhu Hao smiled: "Elder Liu Ge, isn't it good for me to be like this?" ”

Liu Chun shook his head again and again: "It's not good, it's not good!" ”

Zhu Hao said: "Actually, I go to the south, which is good for everyone...... After going out to train for a few years, didn't Sun Lao have such thoughts before leaving? I'm still too young, lack of qualifications, I'm not like Zhang Bingyong, I was only admitted to the Jinshi at an old age, although we are in the same subject, but he still has something convincing about how he behaves in the world. ”

"Jingdao, if you can be convincing when you are old, then the most basic justice in the world does not exist. Your Majesty trusts you a lot, also because you have done a lot for the imperial court, Your Majesty approves of you, and many ministers also approve of you. ”

When Liu Chun said this, he was obviously convinced.

Zhu Hao smiled: "Except for Liu Ge, there are still too few people in the court who believe in me...... Since I can't make achievements in the DPRK, I still want to think about how to do something for the people of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Liu Chun said: "Respectfully, the old man has always had a question, and I don't know whether to export or not. Your goal is not to be a civil servant, but to be knighted with military merits and ensure the prosperity of the family for eternity? ”

Because Liu Chun's face was serious, Zhu Hao could see that Liu Chun was not smiling.

"Why does Elder Liu Ge have such thoughts?"

Zhu Hao didn't even want to be a civil official, and Wu Xun was even less interested.

In the Ming Dynasty, don't look at Wu Xun's ability to pass on the title from generation to generation, but he can't argue with civil officials at all.

Zhu Hao hasn't even finished the things in this life, so naturally he won't think about passing on the incense of the old Zhu family, this is probably the same as Zhu Si's thoughts, I haven't even lived to understand it, why am I in a hurry to think about future generations?

Liu Chun said: "The old man thinks that if you are interested in being a minister, Your Majesty will let you enter the cabinet, and you will directly agree." You are young, and in a few years, we old guys will retire, and you will be the first assistant, so you can display your political ambitions? Why resist?

"On the contrary, you have always been very concerned about mining and building firearms, and it seems that you prefer to lead the troops outside, but the old man thinks about it, but he really can't think of any other reason. At a young age, you haven't experienced so many bad things about Bohu, why do you have such negative thoughts? ”

Zhu Hao smiled and said: "Don't think too much about Liu Lao, I just want to change the times in my own way." I've told a lot of people about this, but unfortunately no one understands it, it's because of the difference in ambition. ”

……

……

With Zhu Si deciding that Zhu Hao would be the secretary of the Ministry of Industry in Nanjing, and after the official appointment of the Ministry of Officials, Zhu Hao's going south was a sure thing.

Many people want to visit Zhu Hao, especially when they know that Zhu Hao came all the way to meet him after he was in Taiqingguan, so that Zhu Hao had to ask people to block him at the door of the Taoist temple to ensure that he could live a quiet life in the Taoist temple for a few days.

Just as Zhu Hao was leaving Beijing, Zhu Si seemed to want Zhu Hao to finally help him do something, that is, to thoroughly investigate the "inner ghosts" of the former Xingwang Mansion.

Jinyiwei commanded Wang Zuo to meet Zhu Hao.

Recently, Wang Zuo's errand has not gone well, and he has been summoned and reprimanded by Zhu Si several times, and even has the intention of replacing him, so Wang Zuo is very cautious about what he has on hand.

“…… Jin Yiwei previously found out that there were Jinyi Wei in Xingwang's mansion, and he had been spying on Xingwang's mansion for a long time to inform the imperial court, and he had thought of inquiring about the Zhu family...... But His Majesty did not allow ......"

Wang Zuo is actually very difficult to push this matter forward.

It is because the vanguard used by the imperial court to monitor the Xingwang Mansion was the Zhu family behind Zhu Hao.

Although they all know that Zhu Hao has a bad relationship with the Zhu family, it is actually equivalent to saying in disguise that Zhu Hao once entered the Xingwang Mansion as a child to spy on intelligence.

Wang Zuo couldn't skip the Zhu family, so he found out the details of the former palace.

Zhu Hao frowned and asked: "Time has passed, and at that time, it was considered to be its own master, must it be investigated?" ”

Wang Zuo asked, "Then what Mr. means, ...... Don't look it up? ”

Wang Zuo also has a headache, check or not, this is not what he can decide at all, now the emperor asked him to check, even if the details in the palace were for the court at that time, but who let the current Xingwang Mansion represent the orthodoxy of the court?

"Commander Wang, let me think about it again." Zhu Hao said, "Oh yes, why haven't you seen Luo Zhenfu recently?" But what's the important errand? ”

Wang Zuo said: "Jinyiwei has to go in and out of Xishan often, and everything in Xishan has never stopped. ”

"Hmm."

Zhu Hao nodded, "Go back and call Lu Qianhu back to me, I want to take him with me when I go south." ”

At first, Zhu Hao intended to send Lu Song to Tianjin, but because Lu Song had been working in Xishan for many years, it may also be because he felt that he was a spy in the Xingwang Mansion in the past, and he was a little sorry for his colleagues, and he rarely met his wife Fan in the past two years.

Wang Zuo hugged his fists: "When you turn around, you will transfer Lu Qianhu back for you to drive!" ”

……

……

Wang Zuo didn't know that Lu Song was a spy, and in the minds of these old people like the Royal Mansion Honor and Guard, Lu Song had always been a good man who worked hard.

In addition, Lu Song has a wife who is deeply trusted by the Empress Dowager Jiang, which also gives her an extra layer of nepotism "halo", no matter whether others look down on Lu Song or not, at least Lu Song has not offended anyone, and Lu Song has always had a good relationship with Tang Yin and Zhu Hao, and the future is bright, maybe he will be able to become a pacification envoy in the future, or become a commander of the Jinyi Guard?

On this day, Sun Lan came to the Taoist temple to visit her husband.

is also because Zhu Hao told her that she was going to Nanjing recently, because the head of the Zhu family is currently a thousand households in Nanjing, Zhu Hao has a bit of a "return to his hometown", Sun Lan, as the wife of the Zhu family, has never seen anyone from the Zhu family except Zhu Hao's mother.

Especially now that Zhu Hao's grandfather and grandmother are still alive.

"In five or six days, you go first." Zhu Hao said, "I'll go to Tianjin first, and then take a boat south, and we will meet in Nanjing." ”

Zhu Hao's words carried a sense of running away.

Sun Lan asked, "Mother and aunt, aren't you leaving?" ”

Zhu Hao smiled and shook his head: "Including my sister will stay in the capital, they have their own lives." ”

This time Zhu Hao went south, not to run, besides, there is nothing to run, just to work in a different place, even if he wants to go to sea, there is no need to drag his family with him, it seems that it is enough to bring the pillow person with him.
