On the throne, the emperor was "young".

Those who are fortunate to sit in the main hall of the Qianqing Palace are all of higher status among the relatives: those who have world bonds, those who have real jobs, and those who have a special relationship like the Zhang brothers.

The emperor in their eyes is very young, but the emperor in their hearts is very old and calculating.

The deeds of the past six months are enough to explain a lot of things, but what kind of banquet is today?

"Do you want to eat more comfortably when you talk about it first, or do you eat and drink enough before listening to me?"

It's pitiful, in order not to lose his honor after entering the palace, I didn't eat in the morning!

But the words "eat and drink enough", Your Majesty, you emphasized it with emphasis, shouldn't it tell us to choose "eat and drink first"?

Cui Yuan took the lead in standing up and said, "Listen to Your Majesty's holy message!" ”

Many fools then panicked or woke up and stood up to say that we will listen to the training first, and there is no tacit understanding at all, which is equivalent to loose military discipline.

The people outside the hall were a little slower to react, and then they shouted together.

Zhang Lun shouted in his heart: Cui Yuan, you trust! I know something, but I don't say it!

"Sit down and listen. Gao Zhong, pass some tea and snacks first. Zhu Houxi smiled with a smile on his face, "They are all loyal to me, and the relatives are even more family, that is, they are family." ”

The people who arranged chores in the Qianqing Palace were Gao Zhong, and the inside and outside of the palace were busy.

The words of family and family spread outside the hall, and the relatives who couldn't feel the atmosphere up close relaxed.

Since the dim sum and tea were on the table, there were some fools outside the hall who began to eat them, and even talked and laughed quietly.

Xu Guangzuo and the others looked at the emperor worriedly, only to see that he didn't seem to care, with a smile on his face.

The smile they had when they first looked at the court reappeared, and they cried out in their hearts: I want to be outside the temple, I don't want to be in the temple.

"Don't be inhibited." Zhu Houxi also said, "They are all ancestors who have made great contributions, or they have married the heavenly family, and they are like their own families." It's like the royal shop set up by the royal brother, and everyone helps take care of it together. Thanks to the guys, I've heard that business is good. ”

Wu'an Hou Zheng Ying couldn't help but tremble when he heard this.

Zhang Lun lowered his head: The ancestors have made great contributions, that is, we are useless now.

Business is good...... Your Majesty, just say what you want, it's scary!

Zhu Houxi continued to be scary, smiling: "The sea is banned, and the forbidden people are all ordinary people, and everyone is not among them, the pillars of the heavenly family." The income of the official store is returned to the state treasury, and it is also necessary to take a lot of expenses, so it is better to have one less trouble, which is also reasonable. ”

The wind gusted, and the two brothers Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling couldn't help but move their buttocks, as if there were nails on the stool.

There was still a whisper of chatter and laughter outside the hall, until Cui Yuan was "trusted" again, and he knelt down and said loudly: "The ministers are ashamed of the grace of heaven, listen to Your Majesty's reprimand!" ”

The voice came out, and there was a panic outside the hall.

The inside of the Qianqing Palace was shady, and the outside of the palace seemed to be windy for a while.

In the courtyard of the Criminal Department in Nanjing, a banquet was also held.

This banquet was placed in the Criminal Department, and the Nanjing relatives who came here to attend the banquet did not need to be so foggy.

I can't help but come, it was Zhang Zilin who gave a banquet on behalf of the Son of Heaven. There is no doubt that His Majesty arranged this before Zhang Zilin went south.

It's clear that it's like sitting on pins and needles.

"Although there are occasional border troubles, the world is generally peaceful." Zhang Zilin is in charge of the name of the sentence, and his observation and memory are not bad, and the emperor has always remembered, "It's too peaceful, it's time to live a rich life." Everyone wants to live a prosperous life, and many years ago, your fathers and grandparents went into battle to kill the enemy with this desire. Or he gave up his future as an official and married the royal family. He who is content is great wisdom. There are people who want to go further, and this is also human nature. ”

The closest person sitting closest to Zhang Zilin was the extremely young Xu Pengju.

The governor of Zhejiang, the important minister of Jiuqing, especially after interrogating people like Qian Ning and Jiang Bin who were extremely arrogant in the past, Zhang Zilin's aura was extraordinary.

And this kind of extremely understandable words were said by him in an indifferent tone, which was not a bit cold.

"But the father is content, but the son is not satisfied. So all in all, everyone wants to go further. Wealth, or power, or titles, or more shadows, and more orders from relatives, all of which are excellent. I appreciate self-motivated. ”

After handing over the sailors from the Nanhu Battalion and the Anqing Battalion to Hu Zan to help Zhu Kun suppress the bandits, Li Quanli, who rushed here, listened to Zhang Zilin and said coldly, "This is all excellent."

In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Houxi's tone was very sincere, and his smile was also very kind: "If people are not motivated, isn't it just eating waste waiting for death?" ”

The people who had eaten outside the hall just now could faintly hear what was being said inside, after all, it was extremely quiet.

Who started eating outside just now? Is it waiting for death next?

"I'm not scolding you." Zhu Houxi spoke with his belly, "I really hope that you will be self-motivated." On that day, Guo Xun was planning and I asked him to participate in the national policy meeting. Now he has been entrusted with the important task of helping me retrain the three major battalions. After making great contributions, I also look forward to a new prince in Jiajing. ”

"If you don't want to be motivated anymore, don't dare to make meritorious contributions, then it's good to enjoy the honor. It is also good to have some self-motivation and rely on your ability to run the family business well. But now there are some bad things, and the bullet stamps of the ministers are often handed in, and I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I want to say something to you. ”

"When you think about it, it's nothing more than four words: loyalty to the monarch and law-abiding." Zhu Houxi finally smiled, "Those who are loyal to the monarch share their worries for the monarch, and do not worry about the monarch." Those who abide by the law are not afraid of the bullet and are worthy of grace. ”

"How many of these four words have you done in the past? Will it be possible to do it in the future? ”

Zhu Houxi raised his hand: "I don't listen to verbal justifications or assurances, I will first calm your hearts today, and second, I will talk about my rules." ”

So Xu Guangzuo and the others held back the words in their mouths, uncomfortable.

"If you are a loyal monarch, you will all cooperate with the rectification strategy of Huangzhuang Huangdian decided at this national policy meeting, don't make it difficult for me. A little floating wealth, you still enjoy the title and wealth, what are your worries? Zhu Houxi said undoubtedly, "As for my rules, it is to give everyone a chance. Those who cherish opportunities, whether they seek wealth or power, I have a way; If you don't cherish the opportunity, then you will have to talk about the law of the country in the future. ”

In the compound of the Nanjing Criminal Department, Zhang Zilin continued: "There are rogues inside, and there are border troubles outside, and those who want to emulate their fathers and ancestors to make meritorious deeds again are opportunities for military merit." If you don't want to work hard, if you want to make money, send a son and a steward to Beijing before the end of the year, and I will come up with a strategy for you to abide by the law and make money well. ”

After a pause, he said a little strangely in his heart: "In the past, the military generals were the right-hand men of the Son of Heaven, but after the change of civil engineering, the Son of Heaven could only use more ministers. Now that the three major battalions have been re-established, and I have set up a royal study, I will wait and see if the generals have any knowledge or not, and they can be of great use. ”

After he said this, Li Quanli couldn't help but look at him.

As a civil servant, how does Zhang Zilin understand this sentence?

Would the Wenchen prefer to confront the ministers, or the military generals?

I'm afraid this is really indescribable, especially after the Zhengde Dynasty had eight tigers, and there were a lot of fortunate ministers such as Qian Ning and Jiang Bin......

What they miss the most, I'm afraid it's still the Hongzhi Dynasty, right?

It's a pity that Your Majesty is not a filial piety temple.

Zhang Zilin said: "The oracle is like this, can you hear it clearly? ”

"Obey the Divine Commandment!"

Zhang Zilin sat down: "The affairs in the southeast are even more treacherous now, and the governor will go to Zhejiang tomorrow." On Nan Zhili's side, you will assist Zhai Langzhong. ”

Zhai Luan, who had served as the head of the Criminal Department, stood up and saluted, and now because there are too many vacancies in Liangguang, he, who has returned to the Hanlin Academy to serve as a regular six-grade attendant, has also been given the opportunity to be promoted.

Qing official Shilangzhong, is the fifth grade, not to mention that this time he was named by Zhang Zilin to accompany him to the south on an errand?

If it is done, the next step is limitless.

The Nanjing relatives were still pondering the holy oracle that Zhang Zilin conveyed to them, but they did not dare to despise Zhai Luan.

This "feast" here is naturally tasteless and just a formality.

After it was over, Zhang Zilin asked Zhai Luan: "When will that Gui Cao arrive?" ”

"Judging from the distance, it should take four or five days to get to Zhenjiang from Jiangxi." Zhai Luan said respectfully, "The governor was summoned on the grounds of investigating the Qin case, and he will not dare to delay." ”

Zhang Zilin nodded: "When he arrives, you first ask why he repeatedly offended his boss back then, but there is an inside story." After asking, he sent someone to escort him to Huzhou Mansion. ”

"The subordinate officer takes the order."

The prefect of Zhenjiang Prefecture under the jurisdiction of Nanzhili was killed, and the prefect of Huzhou Prefecture under the jurisdiction of Zhejiang was killed, and there was a person who had been the prefect of Dantu County under Zhenjiang Prefecture and Wukang County under Huzhou Prefecture, and they all lost their officials or resigned because of repeated violations of their bosses?

The old Xing name Zhang Zilin discovered this new clue, but he didn't realize that he had summoned a fierce man.

In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Houxi's words were much more fierce than Zhang Zilin's.

"I am now holding the ministers under control, just to give you a chance!" Zhu Houxi looked at them sharply, "When you first looked at the court, you shouted in unison, could it be that in the future, the court will stand side by side with martial arts?" ”

After all, there were still three or five people's blood slightly warmed, looking at the emperor.

"Guo Xun knew that he couldn't rely on shouting, so he went to train now and suppressed bandits!" Zhu Houxi concealed the fact that he had demoted his children and grandchildren because of his crimes, "Don't let me see your name, it is to ask for the masterless barland, that is, to impeach you for the official to impeach you, and for the sons and nephews to ask for the title or the post of the eunuch." I hope that you can stand in the court, so that I will always have your name in my heart and remember your merits! ”

"Don't let me soften my heart when I face the impeachment of you, I can only remember the merits of your ancestors or the identity of your relatives. How many times can I relent? How many times has the blood of your ancestors been enough for you to consume from generation to generation? Zhu Houxi sighed, "Those who don't dare to go to the border pass are like Guo Xun who first trained soldiers and suppressed bandits." Even if you don't dare to do this, you will keep your family business and raise your children and grandchildren. If you don't want to be enterprising and violate the national law to blindly accumulate wealth, and connive at the power and blessing of your relatives and family servants, the only way to make the world obey is to deal with it by the national law. ”

The emperor's "trust" Cui Yuan said loudly again: "The ministers obey the holy decree!" ”

Everyone didn't know what the emperor said about "the strategy of taking you to make money", but today a total of three instructions were understood.

First: Clean up the affairs of Huangzhuang Huangdian, and cooperate obediently - this meal is so expensive!

Second: think about what to do in the future, if you want to be motivated, you will make meritorious contributions, and you will have more and more status in the court, Guo Xun and Cui Yuanneng are examples of entering the national policy conference.

Third: It doesn't matter if you want to make money, operate in accordance with the law. On the contrary, the emperor is not able to soften his heart a few times, but he will not be soft-hearted once.

O vassal king! Then you have to bring out who will kill you from time to time, and let other people suppress some thoughts.

Zhang Fujing slashed at Liangguang with a quick knife, and the heads of the Guangzhou Mansion were rolling.

Now, Zhang Zilin, the secretary of the Criminal Department, has gone to the southeast again.

After the expression inside and outside the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Houxi laughed again: "In the past, the lords didn't have to be pressed by the ministers, isn't it?" ”

“…… Good. ”

"I haven't eaten the wine and meat yet, so I don't have the strength?"

"Good!" After a stirring spirit, they suddenly raised the volume in unison.

"In the past, the military generals didn't even need to look at the faces of the ministers, isn't it?"

"Good!!"

"In the past, when everyone saw your fathers and ancestors, they had to praise 'hero', isn't it?"

"Good !!"

Cui Yuan felt that the emperor was like a demagogic gentleman or a scholar, but he didn't mention a word about his relatives, but fortunately, he was no longer a pure relatives.

The military generals roared in unison in the Forbidden City again, and the relatives present trembled for a while, and the two brothers Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling were extremely embarrassed.

And under the temptation of the emperor again and again, this voice became louder and louder, and it spread directly to the Wenyuan Pavilion in the southeast, and Yang Tinghe and others looked at each other: What is good?

The voice also spread all the way to the Qingning Palace in the northeast, and the nobles heard the arrogance over there, and they showed sincere smiles one by one: The monarchs and ministers are very interested. can shout so loudly together, it seems that her husband is also very angry, and he will go back at night to kill it.

At the scene of the Qianqing Palace, there was only Zhang Bi as a "living official", and he was shocked by the sound, especially the words asked by the emperor.

How do you remember it?

Zhu Houxi nodded with satisfaction: "The good news of the Battle of Tuen Mun has come, and I don't even bother to publicize it!" Ships were captured, as well as Westerner guns. More than 300 enemies were killed and more than 40 were captured. I hope that one day, when you come to my house to eat and drink, you will all be heroes! Spread the meal, open the meal! ”

How hot is it to come to my house to drink?

This very expensive family feast can finally be eaten.

Zhu Houxi knew that it was impossible for these waste dim sum to be changed because of a "reprimand", but it didn't matter, with the power of Guangdong's good news and the danger of killing officials in the southeast, when the subtlety of the fire of Rijingmen had not yet dissipated, he would first take down this batch of Huangzhuang Huangdian from their hands lightly.

Besides, maybe it can really inspire one or two useful ones?

As for those who don't listen carefully and don't take it seriously, next time they will naturally really kill a chicken and eat it again.

When Zhu Houxi picked up the wine glass, he smiled and nodded slightly at the two brothers Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling.

The two of them put on a smirk in unison.
