Zhu Houxi was a little big.

It's not that Zhu Houxi couldn't understand what he said, but he still couldn't get used to the extremely formal style of these literati.

Keep it simple, use the words simply.

is concerned about the etiquette of the crown prince and the etiquette of enthronement, because Lao Qin once said that the beginning of the Great Rites Discussion is related to the identity of Jiajing's succession to the throne and the arrangement of the enthronement etiquette.

Zhu Houxi can't remember the details now, so he can only make more preparations first.

“…… Master Zhou, no one bewitches me. Zhu Houxi met his gaze after thinking about it, "Although Your Majesty is seriously ill, the example of King Ning is not far away, and I remember it." It's just learning more, it's not that serious, is it? Except for the sacrifice, I didn't even go out of the mansion, let alone have any dealings with any courtiers, so Master Zhou was too worried. ”

Zhou Zhao looked at him solemnly.

To answer in this way is to say that I am really thinking about these things.

After a long time, Zhou Zhao saluted again and said earnestly: "My father was a county magistrate, but he died inexplicably in the end because he pacified Haikou. I have been promoted in the sixteenth year of Chenghua, and although I have only been a county school teacher for three years, I have already seen through how sinister the officialdom of a county is. The son, although His Majesty is seriously ill and has no children, but the prince is a minister who has grown from birth to now so big, and the minister is more willing to see the prince be a prince in peace after the seal. ”

This time, Zhou Zhao's speech was much simpler, and Zhu Houxi also heard it in his heart.

People are old and refined, how can Zhou Zhao not see through it?

The prince of the Ming Dynasty is very happy. If you don't have any ambitions, in addition to not being able to leave the fiefdom and run around, it's really a first-class character in the world.

Zhu Houxi also thought about not being the emperor and walking into the center of the most frantic storm of power struggle.

But he had already figured it out, the tree wanted to be quiet and the wind did not stop, and it was not his turn to choose.

Lao Qin once said that people chose him because Jiajing was at the right age and the most powerful and easy to control.

As for the generation, order, and bloodline...... If there is a heart, isn't it a matter of illness?

Of course, these are Lao Qin's violent theories.

Zhu Houxi thought for a while and replied: "There are many eyes and ears in the palace, where do I not know?" The student promised Master Zhou that if there was no destiny, he would never be delusional or act rashly. Asking for advice about the "Huidian" is just to prepare for the attack on the king, Zhou Shi said yes, right? ”

Zhou Zhao nodded at this time, relieved a lot.

Then I looked at the "Ceremony" on the case, and felt a little uneasy.

It wasn't until after completing today's teaching that Zhou Zhao returned to Jishan and thought about it for a long time, and then spread out the paper and wrote the letter:

[Zhongde My Friend: After six years, Jun Chajiang's affairs are heavy......]

The object of his letter was Yuan Zonggao, the former governor of the palace, who was praised by the king of Xingxian six years ago, and became one of the few officials who was promoted from the subordinate officials of the palace.

The vast majority of royal officials will not be promoted in their lifetime, and they will not serve elsewhere.

This is the kindness of King Xingxian to Yuan Zonggao, and he doesn't want to see Yuan Zonggao, who was born in Jinshi, spending his life in the palace.

The current situation is indeed delicate, although Zhou Zhao is not a Jinshi, but he has a lifetime of experience.

In Zhou Zhao's view, the Son of Heaven really has a chance to get the Mandate of Heaven - if the Son of Heaven can't get better from this illness and dies without leaving an heir.

It's just that at that time, he will certainly not be able to play much role, but the probationary envoys who have already taken up real posts in the localities are different.

After Zhou Zhao seriously persuaded Zhu Houxi, he still did his part in private to make more preparations for Zhu Houxi.

Since he is also taking precautions, he can also hint at Yuan Zonggao by taking advantage of the friendship of his colleagues in the palace in the old days......

……

At this moment, the capital is full of vegetarians.

On the third day after the death of Emperor Zhengde, after Jiang Bin was imprisoned, the news of Emperor Zhengde's death was finally announced to the world, and the edict was officially promulgated.

One day instead of one month, and twenty-seven days for the Son of Heaven.

And the vassal kings were not allowed to leave their fiefdoms according to the requirements of the edict; The general guards of all towns, the capital divisions, the political envoys, and the criminal envoys must stick to the frontier and must not leave their posts without permission.

After the Beijing courtiers had entered the palace to worship, Emperor Zhengde was buried the next day, and the coffin was nailed to the board.

If he could still open his eyes, he would find that there were far fewer people who came to worship him.

In a few days, the joint venture of the mighty regiment was disbanded, the monks, craftsmen, and priests in the leopard room were dismissed, and many imperial shops were dismissed.

In the edict of Fusi in Weibei Town, Jinyi Weibei was arrested with Jiang Bin, as well as his four sons, as well as Shen Zhou and Li Cong, who had a close relationship with him.

In the palace that day, when Shen Zhou and Li Cong were tied up in front of him, they could only scold: "If you had listened to me earlier, how would you have been arrested?" ”

Now Jiang Bin was numb from pain, just lying there staring at the roof with his eyes blank.

Ridiculous, how could he rebel?

All the honor and disgrace are tied to Emperor Zhengde, and he Jiang Bin is a lonely minister!

No one supports it, the strength is not strong enough, is the rebellion just to have fun?

It's just that I didn't expect Yang Ting and those people to be so ruthless. As soon as the emperor died, he Jiang Bin was immediately arrested.

Jiang Bin now regrets it.

At the beginning, it was suggested that the emperor transfer the border troops of Liaodong, Xuanfu, Datong, and Yansui to Beijing for mutual training in order to confront Qian Ning, who had already been at odds with him.

As a result, the power of the mighty regiment training camp was in hand, and Qian Ning was squeezed by him and lost his momentum, and he was so bold that King Ning frowned.

It's a pity that he can't go back, otherwise, he and Qian Ning will watch each other, and they won't be able to pass this pass safely.

At the beginning, Jiang Bin was able to get the emperor's other eyes, but he still relied on Qian Ning's introduction to enter the leopard room.

"Zhang Yong, Wei Bin, Yang Tinghe, dog thief! Rebels and thieves! ”

Suddenly, there was another commotion at the entrance of the edict, and Jiang Bin's heart sank again when he heard the sound of shouting injustice.

That was Zhang Zhong, the great eunuch who was in charge of the imperial horse eunuch.

Zhang Xiong of the Master of Ceremonies and Zhang Rui of the East Factory...... Have they all been caught?

Zhang Yong and Wei Bin were selling their former colleagues who could be discarded one after another in order to survive, and wagged their tails to the cabinet and begged for mercy.

Jiang Bin sneered.

The cunning rabbit is dead and the lackeys cook, and maybe I'll see them here soon, if I'm not dead by then.

On 20 March, 3,000 officers and soldiers led by Zhang Wei, a Hui'an Bo, and Yang Tingyi, the right attendant of the military department, assembled outside Beijing.

Zhang Wei is the great-grandson of the younger brother of Empress Zhu Gaochi of Renzong, the crown prince of Emperor Zhengde, Shaobao, who was once imprisoned and killed by the imperial history and the military department during the uprising of Liu Liu and Liu Qi.

He can be regarded as having received the kindness of Empress Dowager Zhang and Zhu Houzhao's mother and son.

And Yang Tingyi is Yang Tinghe's younger brother.

At this time, the Fengying group had already set off for six days, and the edict had been issued for four days.

The edict welcomes the son of the king as the emperor, and the Ming Dynasty is going to change the master, how important should this news be?

Such vital news is starting from the capital, spreading outward as fast as possible - to see who can deliver the news the fastest.

The fastest, of course, is Zhang Jin, who has been ordered by Yi.

It is more than 2,000 miles from the capital to Anlu, and even if it is a relay from one station to another, it takes three or four days to make an express delivery that is claimed to travel 800 miles a day.

Zhang Jin was stunned that it only took eight days, and the people had already arrived at the Xingwang Mansion.

He didn't dare to slack off at all, the subordinate officials of the royal palace who dealt with him in front of him have been old ministers of the Qiandi since then, and they are from the dragon's work!

"Princess, Your Royal Highness, the eunuch Zhang Jin has arrived in the mansion, and there is a decree from the Queen Mother!"

The head of the eunuchs of the palace, Chengfeng Si Fengzheng and Zhang Zuo, hurriedly rushed to the Fengxiang Palace, where the princess lived, and announced the news to the royal family who were gathering here to chat.

Zhu Houxi's eyes changed slightly: Is it finally here?
