Chapter 70, Adults Look at Interests
"Let's get even."
After Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling were seen by many people that their crotches were about to start wetting, Zhu Houxi opened his mouth and took the lead to walk to the Qianqing Palace.
A group of people followed anxiously, and while walking, Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling were naturally bypassed, as if they had become two stinky stones.
Although there is no evidence now, who knows if the factory guards under His Majesty have any clues?
Since His Majesty can have people surround the scene and wait for them to see after the fire is extinguished, then he may really know something.
Everything is speculation.
Therefore, the two brothers Zhang Heling, who stepped into the gate of the Qianqing Palace, seemed to have stepped through the ghost gate, and Zhang Yanling couldn't help but look at his brother suspiciously and fearfully.
Because Zhang Yanling knows very well that this matter has nothing to do with him.
But Zhang Heling and his sister ...... He Zhang Yanling really couldn't say clearly.
Who did this?
In the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Houxi walked to the throne, and the others were naturally divided into two classes: civil and military.
The two Zhang Heling brothers were marquises, but the other marquis naturally vacated the places around the two of them.
The two of them occupied a few bricks of land and stood there shivering.
Zhu Houxi has always been unsmiling, which everyone can understand.
You think, you went to the capital and became the emperor, and you didn't want to quarrel with the minister later, and suddenly the courtyard wall in front of your house was burned.
Will you be in the mood to laugh?
But Zhu Houxi laughed: "Elder Yang Ge, I'm afraid that the person who came up with this idea didn't expect that I and the courtiers were really united and sympathetic to each other, do you say yes or no?" β
Yang Tinghe suddenly had tears in his eyes, and he knelt down with great relief and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty's sage is serious, and the old minister is inexplicable!" It is His Majesty's compassion for His Majesty, and the old ministers are ashamed, and today I know that His Majesty is broad-minded! β
After Zhu Houxi came to the outside of Beijing, this was Yang Tinghe's most sincere sentence "Your Majesty Shengming".
It's impressive.
"If I am suspicious, the ministers are panicked, and the elders are in danger. Even if he is blamed, he has to plan for life and death. Zhu Houxi smiled and sighed, "After the unification is not the heir, the celestial phenomena will immediately warn, what a good excuse?" If I am a suspicious person, this open fire is easy to extinguish, and the dark fire will burn more and more. β
Yan Song looked at the smiling emperor, and his eyes showed deep admiration.
His Majesty can really see the calculation of people's hearts behind this fire, how can a fifteen-year-old person see it so clearly?
The young son of heaven, who suffered a danger of his life, lived in the forbidden palace with an unstable foundation, and encountered this fire at the door of his house on the tenth day of his accession to the throne.
The Son of Heaven is suspicious together, how much sanity can be left?
The butcher's knife danced wildly, and if the ministers were wronged by the sword of the Son of Heaven, the next thing would be a situation where everyone was in danger.
Examine?
Naturally, it will be thoroughly investigated, but those who can calculate this step should not leave any clues, right? This is what an extremely smart person like Yan Song wants.
Emperor Zhengde has had no heirs for many years, if he has a foresight, even if there is such a possibility many years ago, what is the point of ambushing one or two dead soldiers in the palace?
Why don't you just stab the driver?
Because after that, it was really immediately a crowd of heroes.
Only when the court is stormy and the monarch and the ministers are separated, can some people calmly plan and support a new monarch that is in line with their interests again.
Now the smile of the young son of heaven made Yan Song's eyes show admiration, and also made Yang Tinghe burst into tears, making Yuan Zonggao let out a long breath, and let the big stone in the hearts of others also fall a little.
A monstrous storm seems to have subsidedβat least on the surface.
In this matter, it is really the monarch and the minister.
"It's a feast." Zhu Houxi said with a smile, "Huang Jin, bring the charcoal stove over." All the way over, my clothes were wet and the weather was cold. Wipe your face, bake your clothes, and go to the banquet easily. As the elder said, the inner servant was careless, and the fire caused by the oil lamp toppling. β
Yan Song and Liu Long, who had been frightened after slowly thinking about it, looked at each other.
That's all it says on the living note.
His Majesty was afraid that the ministers would be worried, so he specially asked the Duke and Earl, the Captain of the Horse and other relatives, cabinet scholars, and Jiuqing who participated in the Great Dynasty Meeting to investigate the fire scene of the Qianqing Palace. Fortunately, it was raining heavily and the fire was quickly extinguished.
The Son of Heaven who returned to the Mandate of Heaven was blessed by the gods and Buddhas and the ancestors, and His Majesty was safe and sound, and he was not even frightened much, so he participated in the court meeting as scheduled, and gave a banquet to the civil and military officials to calm the hearts of the ministers.
Everyone was happy.
Of course, Yan Song didn't think the emperor would care about this kind of superficial smearing.
Today, after this incident, the emperor beat "the cabinet ministers will not be so naΓ―ve if they make a move", and then suppressed the monstrous anger and reasoned that the stability of the court and state affairs are the most important, and what else will be done afterwards, Yan Song will record them one by one.
Later generations have their own opinions, not to mention that even at this time, Yan Song has to admire the unusually calm and rational nature of this young man.
Then the feast began.
The small desk was placed in the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, and the civil and military officials at the highest level of the Ming Dynasty gathered together and talked happily - except for Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling (this sentence is not recorded).
"It's all here, let's discuss the arrangement of Qian Ning and Jiang Bin who don't have family assets today."
Taking advantage of the fact that the cabinet scholars and the Jiuqing and the five armies were all there, the emperor opened his mouth after the banquet was withdrawn.
Zhu Houxi sat on the throne and looked at the top of the martial arts ministers below.
Yang Tinghe sighed silently in his heart: How could a child be so "cunning and cunning" to discuss this matter after today's incident?
has entered the state of an adult who divides interests so quickly, and he is still the kind of adult who has really matured, not a simple giant baby.
"It doesn't cost much money to rebuild the Rijing Gate and renovate the Qingning Palace, but this Qianqing Palace is prone to fire, and it is not very convenient for me to summon foreign ministers in this inner palace. I deliberately changed it on the west side of the Yuehua Gate, before and after the imperial dining room, into a hall with a special pattern, not a large hall. The south of the imperial dining room is close to the side of the Longzong Gate, which is opened up as the imperial study, which is still counted as the former dynasty, and the Yan Dynasty is there in the future; After that, if I read or review at night and played late, I can also sleep there, which is considered the inner palace. β
"Heart Cultivation Palace?" Yang Tinghe wondered why it was this name.
"Mencius has clouds, and he is not good at cultivating his heart." Zhu Houxi smiled and said, "Since it is where I study and govern, what does Elder Ge think of this name?" β
ββ¦β¦ Your Majesty Shengming. β
How can the emperor answer the emperor's claim that he wants to be "insane", especially after he was almost burned to death today, and how can he be a courtier?
Yang Tinghe cared about money: "I don't know this Heart Cultivation Palace...... What kind of regulations do you want to rebuild? β
"Save a little money. In addition to not looking obtrusive, there is no need to build other halls, just change the pattern and treat it as a family house. The imperial dining room there doesn't have to be moved, and it's a bit of a fireworks. β
Yang Tinghe and the others breathed a sigh of relief, if they wanted to build the Yuntai tall and majestic, it would cost millions of taels of silver.
If it is only built as a family house, even if the royal materials are much better, the cost is only one or two percent: after all, it is not a large number.
Li Qi, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, had been impeached before, and now he wanted to sell it to Zhu Houxi, so he immediately made his attitude clear to the emperor: Repair!
Now no one is stopping, after all, the emperor said that the Qianqing Palace is "easy" to catch fire. And the meaning of building the Heart Nourishing Hall is to open more Yan Dynasty in addition to the Chang Dynasty, which is a good thing.
Zhu Houxi waved his hand: "It's simple to repair the Qingning Palace, and it won't cost much to raise the Heart Palace according to my idea, so let's discuss more important expenses first." In the matter of resetting the three battalions, at least for three years, at least 50,000 elite soldiers should be set aside for each year, so that the three battalions could be restored to the scale of 150,000 capable soldiers of the 10 regiments and battalions during the Jingtai period. The reserve of the treasury was for war, but it was customary to include it in its own planned expenses. β
Yang Tinghe and the others immediately heard the point: "Your Majesty, how can this family have no family resources every year?" Wasn't the three major battalions re-established from the Shangzhi Guards reorganized in the Beijing Officers and Troops or transferred from the various guards, and they actually had to recruit troops? β
As soon as he said this, there was an eerie silence in the hall for a moment.
Subsequently, many pairs of eyes involuntarily glanced at Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling.
Can there be a copy of the house every year?
Standing in the position of the important minister, he naturally hopes that this situation will not occur, what if it is copied to his own house one day?
But as soon as this incident happened today, the incident of the Sun Jing Gate Roasting the Holy Son of Heaven that was covered up on the surface naturally could not really end there.
But the two brothers Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling have both money and many handles!
Are Your Majesty and Yang Ge Lao singing and harmonizing, deliberately acting?
Guo Xun looked at the Zhang brothers' eyes much kinder this time, with a smile.
Zhang Heling Zhang Yanling: Guo Xun Piff you tm......
