Chapter 451: Don't Waste Your Efforts
When Zhu Jinghong entered the back garden, a group of warblers and warblers had just gotten off the boat and were about to go to the pavilion next to them to rest, where snacks and tea had been placed.
"Yo...... The busy man is back! Baochai looked at Zhu Jinghong in the distance.
Everyone looked in the direction she was looking, and sure enough, they saw Zhu Jinghong coming in steps.
"Third sister, you can be regarded as here, how can you ...... I'm not bad in this palace, right? β
Looking at the approaching brother, Zhu Yunsheng was dissatisfied: "Thirteenth brother, only one is not good, everything else is good!" β
So Zhu Jinghong looked at Baochai and said, "Baochai, how did you entertain the third sister, you see that the family is unhappy!" β
Baochai smiled and asked rhetorically: "Why don't you ask the third sister, what is wrong?" β
"Forget the third sister, let's save some face for the princess, I won't ask if it's bad, I'll let her be more careful after I go down!"
Everyone present was a smart person, and they couldn't help laughing when they heard this, and they all secretly investigated that Zhu Jinghong was really thick-skinned.
Zhu Yunsheng wanted to break it, but after thinking about it, she was her brother after all, and in the end she didn't say anything more.
When he came to the crowd, Zhu Jinghong first looked at Daiyu and asked with a smile: "Lin girl, how are you practicing calligraphy?" β
"It's just a little bit of a sight!" Daiyu replied, at this time she was pretending to be cold.
"That's too modest, if you can be seen a little, I won't be unsightly!" Zhu Jinghong looked at everyone with a smile.
To his embarrassment, everyone looked at him quietly, apparently agreeing with his words.
But in fact, in the past two years, Zhu Jinghong's calligraphy has also been practiced well, and it is not much different from the current Taiwan cabinet style.
"Lin girl, why don't you teach me!" Zhu Jinghong asked tentatively.
However, these words frightened Daiyu, and she immediately spoke: "Sister Bao is only profound, why should you be willing to go far!" β
This question is also thinking about Baochai at the moment!
yes, why bother to go far?
Thinking of Zhu Jinghong's repeated visits to Kunning Palace before, pestering himself to learn to play chess, Baochai seems to have an answer in his heart.
He's doing it again...... Baochai thought secretly.
Although she understood Zhu Jinghong's intentions, Baochai had no waves in her heart, because she had long understood the virtues of her own men.
Compared with Zhu Jinghong looking for a woman outside, Daiyu knows the roots and has a good relationship with herself, which undoubtedly makes Baochai more acceptable.
Secretly glanced at Baochai, and saw that she really didn't notice anything unusual, Daiyu was relieved.
As for Zhu Jinghong, there are no waves at all, and he never hides this kind of thing.
Walking two steps in front of Daiyu, Zhu Jinghong continued: "Your sister Bao is busy, and she has to take care of her in the house, how can I have time to teach me to write!" β
And you want to harm the people in my palace?
Thinking of this, Zhu Yunsheng got up and walked over, pulled Daiyu to the side and looked at his brother and said, "Thirteenth brother, people don't want to teach you, do you still want to coerce?" β
After laughing twice to hide his embarrassment, Zhu Jinghong said: "Third sister, don't talk nonsense!" β
"Okay, sit down, don't let the third sister laugh at you!" Baochai finally spoke.
Zhu Jinghong sat down as he said, and then Xiangyun suddenly spoke: "Why didn't Sister Qin come?" β
Just at this time, Zhen Qin came and changed into Baochai's newly made clothes.
"Why are you still wearing Baochai's clothes?" Zhu Jinghong questioned again.
The word "yet" was easily captured by Baochai, although she didn't understand it very well, she didn't think much about it.
But Zhu Jinghong's question was really difficult for Zhen Qin, so she didn't know how to explain it for a while.
"The princess asked me to change it!" Zhen Qin held back this sentence.
At this time, Baochai explained: "She got her clothes wet just now, so I asked her to change into my new clothes!" β
"I see!"
At this time, Zhu Jinghong understood everything, so he looked at Zhen Qin and laughed.
At this time, Xiangyun got up and pulled Zhen Qin to take a seat, and then said: "Just now we were talking about lyrics, I said that the few songs you made a few days ago were excellent, and they didn't believe it...... Tell them about it! β
So the next thing basically had nothing to do with Zhu Jinghong, but he himself was not idle.
For example, his gaze looked at Daiyu for a while, and then at Zhen Qin.
looked at Daiyu because of love, and looked at Zhen Qin for career.
That's right, Zhu Jinghong has included Zhen Qin in the plan, planning to use her to show himself after the "collapse" when the queen does not allow him to go to the northwest.
What is the self after "collapse", it is naturally full of complaints, excessive drinking, and even drunken disorder......
Thinking of this, Zhu Jinghong silently said sorry to Zhen Qin, it is really not good for others to do this, even if he knows that this girl likes him.
Let's say that at the scene, although everyone was talking about poetry, in fact, most of them were paying attention to Zhu Jinghong, and his actions could be said to affect the girl's mood.
It's just a matter of looking at Daiyu, how can he stare at the piano girl, I still don't know him well enough...... Baochai thought so.
Does he prefer Sister Jean like that? Daiyu came up with such speculation.
It seems that the Thirteenth Master has long been fond of me, otherwise he would not be so close to me today, I am willing to ...... Zhen Qin was shouting in her heart.
Although everyone had different thoughts, they chatted harmoniously on the spot, and time passed slowly.
When it came to dinner time, although it was also arranged to eat in the garden, the location was in Tingyuzhai, where Keqing once lived.
When everyone moved to Tingyuzhai, Baochai led Daiyu to walk in front, followed by Yang Jingting and Keqing Xiangyun, and Zhu Jinghong and Zhu Yunsheng at the back.
It's just that the brother and sister chatted not happily, Zhu Yunsheng wanted to stay in Xiangwang's Mansion for a few more days, but Zhu Jinghong asked her to go back tomorrow.
"Ignore you!" Zhu Yunsheng left angrily.
She left this time, but gave Zhen Qin a chance, and the girl came to Zhu Jinghong's side one step behind.
"Thirteenth master, why is the princess angry!"
Looking at Zhen Qin on the side, Zhu Jinghong replied calmly: "You should ask her to go!" β
"You won't tell me about today's events!" Zhen Qin asked in a low voice.
She was purely speechless, because she knew that Zhu Jinghong didn't do this.
Who knew that the next moment, Zhu Jinghong slapped her buttocks twice, and then said, "Don't worry...... I'll be sure to keep it a secret for you! β
Zhu Jinghong's two slaps completely made Zhen Qin's brain empty, and she even thought that she felt wrong.
"Eh...... Do you hear that? While speaking, Zhu Jinghong slapped twice.
This time, Zhen Qin could finally be sure that she was taken advantage of by Zhu Jinghong again, how could she dare to look at Zhu Jinghong when her face was flushed, and she ran away directly as soon as she turned her head.
At this time, if no one escapes, Zhen Qin is really worried that she will die.
But Zhu Jinghong is different, he enjoys such a sneaky feeling, and only thinks it is a different kind of stimulation.
Don't blame me, girl, it's you who like to post it, and you can only dedicate yourself...... Zhu Jinghong said secretly in his heart.
In the current era, treating an unout of line like this is indeed extremely rude and even perverted, so Zhu Jinghong does feel a little guilty in his heart.
But in fact, although Zhen Qin ran away, although she was extremely ashamed, her heart was sweet.
Soon it was time for the banquet, and after everyone sat down again, Zhen Qin had not recovered from the excitement and shyness, which attracted the surprise of Xiangyun on the side.
And Baochai also noticed that something was wrong with her, so she couldn't help but look at her husband next to her a few more times, but the latter's face was ancient and waveless.
After a night, Zhu Jinghong washed up early, and then left the house and went to the palace.
He plans to go to the East Palace first today, and re-enact the actions of the Rui Wangfu yesterday in front of the fourth child.
I just want to be a general, I don't have any other ideas, this character must be erected......
Walking into the gate of the East Palace, on the way to the meeting room, Zhu Jinghong once again clarified the central task of this trip.
Compared with the sixth child, the prince is obviously better at fooling, and it is impossible to suspect that Zhu Jinghong has a "different heart" when he goes to the northwest.
What made Zhu Jinghong uncomfortable was that the crown prince had the same position as the queen, and they were all against him going to the northwest to risk his life.
Therefore, it took him a lot of effort to explain before convincing the prince that he was only going to the northwest to see, and would never venture to the battlefield.
In this kind of major right and wrong, the prince was very straightforward and showed Zhu Jinghong that it was inconvenient for him to help him intercede with the queen, so Zhu Jinghong was extremely disappointed and left the East Palace.
Let's say that Zhu Jinghong left the East Palace and went straight to the direction of Kunning Palace.
At this time, the queen was receiving the maiden, because his arrival could only end early.
In the side hall of Kunning Palace, the queen sat on the soft couch and looked at her son kneeling in front of her with a gloomy look.
"You're not done, are you? This matter is not negotiable, you come here ten times and hundreds of times! β
"Mother, my son has nothing else to ask for in this life, do you have to ruthlessly reject such a small request?"
"Everything else is up to you, but it's impossible to go to such a dangerous place!" Yang Qingyin said it categorically.
"Son......
Without waiting for Zhu Jinghong to finish speaking, the queen immediately said: "Go back if you have nothing else to do, don't bother me about this matter in the future!" β
"Mother......
Before Zhu Jinghong could say anything, the queen had already gotten up and left, so he could only withdraw from the hall with interest.
Although he will come again in the next few days, he already knows that the old mother will never let go without extraordinary means.
With a sigh, Zhu Jinghong walked out of Kunning Palace, planning to go to the North Siwei to have a look.
Because he is going to fight in the northwest, the North Fourth Guard is now taking turns on vacation, and everyone can go home to get together with their relatives for half a month, and the matter of training is temporarily put on hold.
But before he walked out of Kunning Gate, he was stopped by the little eunuch of the Qianqing Palace, but it was the emperor who sent him to meet him.
And when Zhu Jinghong rushed to the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Xianming was summoning Zhao Yushan at this time, and this time the discussion was still about Jinling.
The first part of the implementation of Qingzhang is personnel adjustment, Zhao Yushan came up with the final plan today, and it is being presented to the emperor at this moment.
So far, this plan has been corrected four times, and each time it has been adjusted in one way or another.
Although the emperor trusted Zhao Yushan very much, he would still ensure his dominance in large-scale personnel appointments.
For example, Zheng Xianlin, who was the governor of Jinling, and Jia Yucun, who was promoted to the deputy envoy of the judge, were arranged by the emperor himself.
In addition, among the more than 50 officials who were all adjusted, the crown prince and King Rui also recommended six or seven people respectively.
"So be it!"
After reading it, Zhu Xianming said these four words, and handed Zhang Ji to Lu Tong, the master of ceremonies on the side.
As long as the celebrant uses the seal, it can be sent to the ministry for execution.
It's mid-March, and in May, the officials can be in place, giving them two months to familiarize themselves with the situation, just in time for the autumn harvest to be carried out.
In the province of Jinling, if you want to complete all the clearances without mistakes, one year is actually very rushed, so Zhu Xianming gave a three-year time limit.
In the past three years, in addition to completing the Qingzhang of Jinling, a group of talented officials will also be trained, and these people will become the backbone of the next Qingzhang.
"Most of the people appointed inside are your protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials, I'm afraid that someone will impeach you for nepotism!"
Although the emperor's words were plain, Zhao Yushan dared to ignore it, so he immediately knelt on the ground again.
"Your Majesty, the minister has no such intention!"
Zhu Xianming said with a smile: "I know that you don't have this mind, I just remind you to be vigilant, hurry up!" β
Zhao Yushan actually knew very well that the emperor was not only reminding himself, but also warning himself not to have different intentions.
Although their monarchs and ministers complement each other, but monarchs and ministers are monarchs and ministers, and suspicion is only shelved rather than disappeared, which Zhu Xianming and Zhao Yushan both know.
"It's nothing, you can go back and get busy!"
"Wechen retires!"
Let's say that Zhao Yushan withdrew from the warm pavilion, and ran into Zhu Jinghong before he walked out of the main hall.
"I've seen Your Highness!"
"Yo...... Zhao Ge Lao! β
"I heard that His Highness wants to go to the northwest?"
Zhao Yushan's unprecedented questioning made Zhu Jinghong a little stunned for a while, and he didn't know what the old man was planning.
"I want to go around, you know I like to join in the fun, and I'm a person who can't stay idle!"
"Your Royal Highness has trained the troops into a god, if you go to the northwest to counsel the military affairs, the heavenly soldiers of the imperial court will have a better chance of winning!"
Good guy, Old Zhao's words are even more abnormal, which makes Zhu Jinghong a little alert.
Was he joking or serious?
Zhu Jinghong couldn't be sure of this question, so he said with a hippie smile: "Or the elder understands me, they all say that I can only mess around, but if I am the general, it will be easy to sweep away Dzungaria!" β
"Hahaha...... Your Highness can ask the Holy Lord for battle later! Zhao Yushan rarely smiled.
Putting away his smile, Zhao Yushan arched his hand and said, "Your Highness...... Farewell! β
"Pavilion Elder Please!"
Watching Zhao Yushan leave, Zhu Jinghong felt uneasy in his heart, Zhao Yushan's behavior today was really weird.
"Thirteenth Master, the Lord has summoned you to meet you!"
"Hmm!"
Turned around and entered the hall, and after a few breaths, Zhu Jinghong came to the front of the palace, and the emperor was reading the military newspaper at this time.
"Dad, what are you calling your son for?"
Looking up at Zhu Jinghong, Zhu Xianming asked calmly: "Your mother won't agree, I think you should not waste your efforts!" β
"Daddy...... It's not the last day yet, how can you be sure that her mother won't change her mind! β
"You kid is really a tendon!" Zhu Xianming said with a smile.
Zhu Jinghong replied calmly: "My son is not a tendon, but he doesn't want to retreat in the face of difficulties!" β
Stunned for a moment, Zhu Xianming said: "You can also be reasonable, it's really rare!" β
Zhu Jinghong continued: "My son is reasonable, but he doesn't know those things in books!" β
Originally, Zhu Xianming wanted to persuade him to stop tossing, but seeing Zhu Jinghong's undiscouraged determination, he suddenly changed his mind again.
"Forget it, you can toss if you want toss!"
"Dad, my son has something to say...... I don't know if to talk about it! β
Picking up the report again, Zhu Xianming said slowly: "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it!" β
"Dad, my son has made some contributions in the past two years, and you have always been a ......"
Just listening to the previous opening, Zhu Xianming knew his plan, and immediately interrupted: "You don't want to, let me help you intercede, right?" β
"With you coming forward, she will give you more or less ......"
Without waiting for Zhu Jinghong to finish speaking, the old man beckoned and said, "Thirteen, come here!" β
"Dad, what's the matter?"
"Come here with your ears!" Zhu Xianming became more and more cautious.
When Zhu Jinghong came to his side and stretched his ears over, he only heard Zhu Xianming scolding: "Get out!" β
"Daddy......"
"Get out of here!"
"Yes!"
After Zhu Jinghong disappeared, Fang heard Zhu Xianming muttering to himself: "Let me intercede, wouldn't it be scolding if I go!" β
Regarding Zhu Jinghong's going to the northwest, in fact, Zhu Xianming just couldn't talk about opposing it, so it was impossible for him to take the initiative to intercede.
