After breakfast, Zhu Houxi said goodbye to Zhengde and Empress Dowager Zhang, and left Renshou Palace with Zhang Yong, first returned to the East Palace Zhu Houxi changed into civilian clothes, and then the two went out of the Forbidden City from Donghua Gate.

When he walked outside the Dong'an Gate, the eunuch Zhang Yong asked loudly: "His Royal Highness, where are we going?" ”

Zhu Houxi said without thinking: "Shifu." ”

Since he decided to protect the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Houxi, as the son of Xingshi who has not yet had a hereditary title, naturally has a certain right to speak in the court.

Daming has a complete operating system, and the top is undoubtedly the cabinet and the six ministries, as well as the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which is responsible for inspecting hundreds of officials.

Zhu Houyu has already thought about starting with the six ministries, which is the fastest way to grasp the right to speak, as for the group of trolls in the Metropolitan Procuratorate who have nothing to do and like involution, they are completely out of Zhu Houxi's consideration.

If he wants to control the six departments, Zhu Houxi certainly needs a part of the team, and the people he chose to recruit when he went out of the palace this time were Shi Xuan (bao), the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and his brother Shi Jue (Jie).

Shi Xuan and his eldest brother Shi Jue in history have done six books, and they can be said to be the talents among talents, and of course such a person Zhu Houxi has to recruit under his command.

As for why he went to Shifu, Zhang Yong didn't ask, Zhengde's will for him to protect Hao Xing Shizi, and the others were not within his scope of responsibility, of course he wouldn't meddle in his affairs and make Zhu Houxi unhappy.

This trip Zhu Houyu was very low-key, did not take the dragon chariot of Emperor Zhengde, but drove out of the palace on horseback, before leaving the palace, Zhu Houyu asked Zhu Chen to explore the residence of the two brothers, so he did not take any detours along the way and went straight to Shifu.

In front of the gate of Shifu, Zhu Houxi turned over and dismounted and handed the reins to Zhu Chen, Zhang Yong ran to the door one step faster, and said to the gatekeeper: "Go and report to your master, just say that there are distinguished guests visiting, let them go out of the house to greet them." ”

It is said that the seven officials in front of the prime minister, as the porter of the waiter's house in the Ministry of Rites, would have been laid off long ago if he hadn't even seen it, and as soon as the porter heard Zhang Yong's voice, he knew that the master in front of him was a person in the palace, and he was not ambiguous at the moment, so he didn't want to ask Zhang Yong for a prayer post, so he ran to the courtyard after answering a voice.

Shifu is a two-entry house, and when the two brothers ran out, Zhu Houxi had already appeared in the courtyard of Shifu and was observing the architectural style of Shifu.

Hearing the report of the palace people visiting, Shi Xuan, who was discussing the major affairs of the court with his brother at home, and his brother hurriedly ran out to greet him, but the two brothers, after seeing Zhu Houxi's young appearance, couldn't help but show a suspicious look on their faces, and they couldn't figure out who the young man in front of them was.

When the two were in a dilemma, a sharp voice came out of Zhang Yong's mouth, and he prompted: "This is His Royal Highness Xingshizi." ”

The two brothers of the Shi family bowed and saluted: "Shizi." ”

"The two of you are exempt, this son of the world takes the liberty to disturb, and please don't be surprised by the two adults."

Shi Jue hurriedly said: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, I'm no longer in the court, and I ask the prince to move to the main hall." ”

Zhu Houxi nodded to Shi Jue, and followed the two brothers into the main hall of Shifu, Zhu Houyu was not polite, and sat directly on the main seat.

After the two brothers of the Shi family sat down, Zhu Houxi went straight to the point and said: "Now that there are a lot of malpractices in the Ming Dynasty, the eldest brother intends to abolish the malpractices and let the son of this world choose talents in case of emergency." ”

Zhang Yong, who was standing next to Zhu Houxi, felt that his heart had reached his throat, because it was really too exciting, Zhu Houyu dared to fake the holy decree in front of Zhang Yong, one of his Eight Tigers, and this courage to die made Zhang Yong's hands in his robe tremble with fright.

Zhang Yong's eyes looked at his nose, his nose looked at his mouth, and his mouth looked at his heart, and he was silent, because what Zhu Houxi did had his own holy judgment, and it was not his turn to put a beak on a person with a crippled body.

The two brothers, Shi Jue and Shi Jue, looked at each other, and both brothers saw the disbelief on each other's faces, they never thought that His Majesty, who was usually stubborn, would have such ambitions.

"The minister Shi Jue (Shi Xuan) is at the disposal of His Royal Highness."

The two brothers of the Shi family also didn't expect that the descendants of the Zhu family would play so well that they would dare to play with anything, and they didn't even take it seriously if they pretended to pass on the holy decree.

As for how to solve the problem of false transmission of the holy decree, Zhu Houyu already had a plan in his heart, just go back and tell the truth to Zhengde, and reprimand him with Zhengde's character, and then admit that the will was indeed granted by Zhengde in private.

The reason why Zhu Houyu is so confident has a lot to do with Zhengde's promise yesterday, Zhengde knew that he had a plan, but he did not warn him to stop him, which means that Zhengde acquiesced to him to do a lot of things, which is also the reason why Zhu Houyu dared to falsely preach the holy decree in front of Zhang Yong.

Zhu Houxi said with a smile on his face: "The two adults, please hurry up, this son has something to give to the two adults." ”

The two brothers of the Shi family stood up at Zhu Houxi's signal, and then saw Zhu Houyu take out something like a bamboo tube from the package.

"This thing was developed by the imperial doctor in the palace, and it may be beneficial to Lord Shi Jue's illness."

"How would the prince know?"

"Your Majesty wants to use the two adults, so you have to know something about the two adults."

When he heard that he could be used again, Shi Jue felt that the pain on his body was suddenly half better, even if he hadn't used the penicillin sent by Zhu Houxi, he would not die next year, and now with the medicine sent by Zhu Houxi, he firmly believed that he could still work hard for Daming for ten years.

Shi Jue said with tears: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Hong En, and write Your Highness's life-saving grace." ”

Shi Xuan knew the purpose of Zhu Houxi's trip, in addition to letting his brother re-enter the official career, and also gave him good medicine, so he immediately knelt on the ground with emotion.

"The son of the world is very gracious, and my two brothers are unforgettable."

"Lord Shi, please get up, this is all Your Majesty's will, and this son is just doing it conveniently."

Zhang Yong is still beside him, and of course Zhu Houxi will not stupidly stop all the credit on himself.

You can't let Zhengde carry the pot of false will, and he Zhu Houxi will take the benefits alone, so even if Zhengde is pampering him, the imperial brother, he will be tired of him sooner or later.

As soon as Shi Xuan stood up, he heard someone outside the hall shouting, "Who is the white horse outside the door?" Get out of here! ”

Zhu Houxi, who was originally in a happy mood at the moment, was in a happy mood after stealing the name of Zhengde, and his little face immediately became gloomy after hearing the shouts outside the hall, just like the rain in June will change.

"The ...... of the Prince"

Zhang Yong was just about to speak out to persuade him, but was interrupted by Zhu Houyu waving his hand, seeing Zhu Houyu walking out of the hall, Zhang Yong could only follow Zhu Houyu to prevent him from suffering a loss outside the hall.

In the courtyard of Shifu, a strong-looking man was shouting, a trace of surprise flashed in Zhang Yong's eyes when he saw the man, obviously surprised that this man would appear here, Zhang Yong suddenly felt like a fight, and the things behind were definitely out of his control.
