In the tenth year of Zhengde, the prince has come to the fourth place, if you count his daughters, then he is now four sons and three daughters.

A few years ago, perhaps because the emperor and the concubines were young, the heirs did not increase so quickly, and after six years of Zhengde, each concubine came to the happy side.

The emperor's eldest son's name is Zhu Zaiyuan (pronounced Tongshou), born in the second year of Zhengde, and is now nine years old, and his biological mother is Concubine Ning, that is, Mei Huaixiao.

The second son of the emperor is named Zhu Zaiyan (pronounced the same as smoke), born in the second year of Zhengde, also nine years old, and his biological mother is Concubine Zhao, that is, Mei Huaiyan.

Then Zhu Houzhao ushered in two daughters, the eldest daughter was named Xiuyu, her biological mother was Shen Shufei, and the second daughter was named Xiurong, who was the princess born to Queen Xia.

Then there is the third son of the emperor, named Zaiyao (sound with the shake), there is the meaning of the mountain high, he was born to Concubine Chen Xian in the sixth year of Zhengde, and now he is just five years old.

Zhu Zaiji, the fourth son of the emperor, was born in the seventh year of Zhengde, and his biological mother was Concubine Shun.

Concubine Jing Kui'er also gave birth to an heir to the emperor, but it was only a daughter, just two years old.

This pattern can basically ensure that the succession of the throne after Zhengde is worry-free.

However, the structure is not very reasonable.

Although Mei Kejia is now an earl, he was born into a merchant family, and the mother of the emperor's eldest son and second son was still born from his concubine. In the years of paying attention to status, Zai Yan and Zai Yan were born shorter.

This concept is deep-rooted and does not depend on Zhu Houzhao's personal will.

The fourth son's mother, Concubine Shun, was a Mongolian, so he didn't even think about it.

The remaining third son of the emperor Zaiyao, his background has no shortcomings, but there are no bright spots, although the mother concubine is liked by the emperor in the harem, but after all, she is not a queen, let alone a concubine.

Now the emperor is still young, and the concubines are also young, and it is not easy to say whether they will have the status they have today when they are old and decrepit in the future.

Zhu Houzhao doesn't know what to say, the lucky things in the world can't be taken up by him alone, right?

Zhu Yuanzhang's son has a very reasonable structure, no one can challenge the status and ability of a big brother, and the pattern is very stable, but in the end he died earlier than Zhu Yuanzhang.

So there's nothing to complain about this outcome, just accept it and find a way to do it.

“…… The prince of the prison country, who do you think is more suitable? ”

The princes are not big, so the actual thing must be decided by the cabinet. But don't say nine years old, even three years old, you have to find a prince to sit on it.

Yang Yiqing replied, "The minister thought that the eldest son of the emperor should be in charge of the country." ”

"Why?"

"Impartial, impartial."

Zhu Hou is white, since there is no grandson, it is long, the conventional practice, the golden mean.

"Hmm." He nodded, and then touched his nose as if he was a little embarrassed, the monarch and the minister have been together for nearly ten years, and there are some things that he is willing to say to these two close ministers.

"The two elders should be considerate of me. Yong Xie Bu also did not take the same words last year and this year, the fire sieve has been accumulating strength since returning to the grassland, I originally wanted to go to Zhengde in eight years, but now it has been delayed for another two years, and it can not be delayed anymore. ”

"Your Majesty's words are serious, and the ministers are terrified."

"Well, it doesn't have to be that way. Let's talk to each other. I know that some imperial historians keep saying that I am a great achievement, and I recognize half of this. The emperor shook his head, looking unreasonable and wrong, but still cheeky, "But then again, what ambition and ambition does the emperor have if he doesn't like his achievements?" Do you want me to have no fighting spirit and return to the harem to drink and have fun all night? I want to open up the territory and expand the territory and go far to the Han and Tang Dynasties. What's not to do?

As for the second word they say, I don't recognize it, I don't recognize anything. ”

He continued to emphasize: "And if you don't recognize it today, you won't recognize it in the future." It's been ten years since I ascended the throne, and the seeds of Juntun have grown to eight million stones, right? The salt tax has risen to 10 million taels this year, right? The annual income of the whole country has jumped four steps in a row from less than 30 million stones, and has reached more than 70 million stones, and the expenditure on military salaries in the frontiers is reduced, and the state treasury is now surplus every year, and even the salaries of officials have been raised, and the capital has built six more Beijing warehouses, and the grain is still full and overflowing.

Some say it's a credit to the sweet potato. Hehe, sweet potatoes are not promoted by me? If this is still a reckless force, then they will have to look through the history books to see which emperor who fought the war better than me! ”

Zhu Houzhao stuck his waist in his waist, and he was somewhat of a cow temper.

Anyway, he doesn't care, if he doesn't clean up the Mongols this time, it will be more troublesome to drag it out in the future. He originally had the memory of the Jiajing period, when the leader of the Tumut tribe, Alta, invaded the Central Plains again.

Yang Yiqing also knew that this time was different from before, the emperor always had the urge to send troops, like when he wanted to fight Hami, that time he listened to the persuasion, and in the eighth year of Zhengde, he considered the factors of the lack of the prince and also listened to the persuasion, but several times and three times...... It seems that this time it really can't be stopped.

In fact, when he was the head of the cabinet, he never opposed the use of troops regardless of it, and the situation in the country was very good, where the Mongols became bigger.

In the seventh year of Zhengde, Wang Shouren sat in the town and commanded the generals to take a resolute blow to the Mongolian tribes by harassing, attacking and driving them. In the northwest, the seven guards of Guanxi were not formed, and Zhou Shangwen, the king of Jinglubo, sent Ma Rong to lead the elite cavalry of the two guards to be stationed in Hami, staring at the king of Zhongshun to see if he wanted to make eye contact with the Turpan Khanate.

These are all agreed by Yang Yiqing and strongly promoted.

But this time the difference is that the emperor wants to recruit in person.

Zhu Houzhao also knew that it was difficult, after all, he had a 'great' grandfather. However, from the eighth year of Zhengde to the present, the minister's mouth should be loosened.

Yang Yiqing couldn't help it, so he sighed and asked, "I don't know how Your Majesty plans to transfer troops?" And even if His Majesty issued a holy decree today, and the army was mobilized, it would not be possible to make all preparations for half a year. Winter marches are even more inappropriate, so they can only be next year. But Your Majesty will inspect Jiangnan next year. ”

Zhu Houzhao pretended to think and said, "This is not a problem. Patrolling Jiangnan can wait until I return triumphantly...... Oh, otherwise, I'll go to Jiangnan this year to inspect first, and when everything is ready next spring, I'll set off directly! ”

Yang Yiqing:(⌒⌒*)

Wang Wei: ̄dish ̄.

No wonder Yang Shen went south to fight at this time.

The emperor had already calculated these little ninety-nines.

What do you say about Zhengde's ten-year pro-expedition and eleven years of inspecting Jiangnan...... They were all waiting for them here.

And after succeeding, they didn't hide the smugness on their faces at all, which made the two of them a little crying and laughing, in fact, they were very familiar with the monarch and ministers, and they got along very well, so they only slandered a few words.

The emperor strode towards his imperial case, and the whole person was overjoyed, "Elder Yang Ge, Elder Wang Ge, do you still remember Ping Haibo's excerpt some time ago?" He said that the momentum of the shipyard and the artillery and musket factory is very strong, which is the confidence of the Ming Dynasty's foreign exchanges, but unfortunately in order to reduce the transportation distance, they are not all in the Beijing Division, and even the Ming Naval Division has not been reviewed since its establishment. So no matter what, I, the emperor, should go, right? ”

The emperor is such a tone, Yang Yiqing and Wang Wei will no longer be obstructed, this is also the trust between them for so many years, they believe that Emperor Zhengde will never do anything harmful to the people and the country.

You Ji on the side is already very proficient Hehe smiled, even if he knew in his heart that the emperor was talking nonsense, he also had this expression.

Ping Haibo did have this excerpt before, but he remembered that the sentence that the emperor read out at that time was not a shipyard or an artillery factory, but a ten-mile long street in Hangzhou, which was extremely prosperous......
