"Why not?"

"Because ......" Li Qing almost leaked his mouth with a bald grunt, and hurriedly remedied, "The overall situation is unstable, if the emperor personally recruits, what should the court situation do?" ”

Li Qing didn't know how it was in history, but what he did know was that in the current situation, Zhu Qizhen dared to recruit in person and was forced to be 'arranged'.

Because Zhu Qizhen offended not only the ministers, but also the generals, the Beijing army is still in control, but the border army is different, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, plus the little emperor did not ask about the court affairs in the past few years, so there is almost no deterrent;

Thinking with their butts, they also know that they are greedy for ink and money, and they definitely don't do less, although Zhu Qizhen didn't check it, how could they not be weak-minded.

Of course, the main contradiction is maritime trade.

In this case, if Zhu Qizhen swaggers to go to the expedition in person, it is not impossible for Wenchen and military generals to join forces, and it is not impossible to sell an emperor.

"Your Majesty, before you are absolutely sure...... No, you can't be pro-conscripted. Li Qing simply said it to death.

He was really scared of this.

Zhu Qizhen was very unhappy, frowned and said, "Why, in the eyes of Mr., I am so useless?" ”

"No, the emperor is the lord of the British, and the minister doesn't mean that."

"That's what you mean." Zhu Qizhen snorted, "I know, in fact, you also treat me as a child." ”

"Don't dare!"

"That's it." Zhu Qizhen said lightly, "I'm not angry, after all... I'm used to it. ”

His face was full of disappointment, "I thought you were different from ordinary people, but now look... Alas, I know Mr., but Mr. I don't know me! ”

Li Qing saw that his face was injured, and said: "Your Majesty, the current situation is that almost all the civil and military generals have been offended, not to mention far away, let's take the court as an example, the ministers who oppose you are not all civil ministers, there are many military generals among them, but they are not good at words;

Even Xungui is like this, the court situation is like this, how can the emperor leave the center lightly? ”

"Okay, let's wait for the situation to stabilize." Zhu Qizhen didn't want to do anything, he still took the overall situation into account.

But Li Qing didn't want him to do it personally, he didn't want it now, and he didn't want it in the future, he still wanted to block the road.

"Is the emperor willing to listen to the minister?"

"You say."

"It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift." Li Qingdao, "Now the imperial court has taken over the trade with Japan, and at the same time reopened the silver mines, and in a few years will reopen the Western trade;

Regardless of anything else, can these officials in the court be happy in their hearts? ”

"You mean, if I am personally recruited, they dare to openly rebel?" Zhu Qizhen asked.

Li Qing nodded: "They don't dare on the surface, but of course they dare secretly." ”

"How dare they?"

Li Qing said helplessly: "If they don't dare, Fu. How can it be chaotic to build Jiangsu and Zhejiang. ”

Zhu Qizhen was speechless, but he was not convinced, "Could it be that I have to be like a canary in my life, staying in this palace and not being able to leave a step?" ”

"Of course not." Li Qing shook his head, "If the emperor has leisure, he can pay a private visit and experience the life of the people in the suburbs of Beijing up close......"

"Or rather, I can't leave Jingshi." Zhu Qizhen asked.

Li Qing said no more.

He could see that Zhu Qizhen was very angry, people of this age were the most unprovoked, and the more he persuaded him, the greater the little emperor's rebellious mentality.

The hall was silent.

Both the monarch and the minister were silent.

After a long time, Zhu Qizhen calmed down and took the lead in breaking the silence, "Loyal words are against the ear, I know that Mr. Zhi is loyal to the country and has no selfish intentions, how can I not listen to it and speak out?" ”

"The emperor is open-minded and magnanimous, he can swallow thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and he is admired." Li Qing said with a smile, taking a sip of tea.

Zhu Qi Zhenqiang smiled and sighed: "To tell the truth, I am really angry, not Mr. Qi, but angry at my own incompetence;

In the final analysis, I am still too bad, I can't do the same as Taizu Taizong, and I almost got angry with Mr. ”

Li Qing hurriedly put down the teacup and arched his hand: "The emperor said this, but the ministers have no place to embarrass themselves. ”

"Where you say, right is right, and wrong is wrong." Zhu Qizhen said seriously, "To others, I will not admit my mistakes, but Mr. is different, I take Mr. as an absolute confidant and family member, please don't take Mr. to heart, what should I do in the future, what will I do, don't dare to speak." ”

"The food of the king is for the king's worries, and the ministers should be loyal and outspoken." Knowing that the little emperor was not in a good mood, Li Qing also said a few more obedient words.

Zhu Qizhen is young in the end, and he has been suppressed for so many years, and now he has finally turned over to be the master, and it is not an exaggeration to be in a hurry.

And he wants to make some merits, his heart is good, Li Qing understands him.

Zhu Qizhen can take the lead in softening and taking the initiative to admit his mistakes, which is commendable, Li Qing is not a person with a small belly.

The atmosphere eased up, and the two discussed what might happen and drew up a preliminary plan.

Seeing that it was almost over, Li Qing got up and said, "If the emperor has no other instructions, Rong Chen will retire." ”

"Mr. I'm sending it."

"The emperor stays, and official business is important."

"Hmm... Also, you're welcome to talk to Mr. I, Mr. walks slowly. Zhu Qizhen said with a smile.

When Li Qing walked away, Zhu Qizhen sat back on the chair in a dejected manner, and the smile on his face disappeared.

He was very depressed in his heart, knowing that what Li Qing said was the truth, and he also knew that Li Qing was for his good and for the good of Daming, but he was just not happy.

"Alas... I can't blame others, I can only blame myself for not being capable. Zhu Qizhen laughed at himself, and drank the cup of tea in one gulp, "Come on, let Wang Zhen see you immediately." ”

Xiao Huangmen stepped forward and whispered: "Back to the emperor, the prince has become a supervisor and set off with the army." ”

"I forgot about it." Zhu Qizhen said to himself, "Why didn't I see him on the school ground?" ”

Xiao Huangmen said: "The prince said that the ministers did not want to see him, worried that the limelight would be too big to be hated by others, and he was also afraid that the emperor would be difficult to do, so he kept a low profile and waited outside the city.

He instructed the slaves and maids to show the emperor if the emperor asked. ”

"yes, got it." Zhu Qizhen waved his hand, and Xiao Huangmen saluted and exited the main hall.

Zhu Qizhen leaned on the chair, looking up at the exquisite carvings in the center of the hall, his heart was empty, he enjoyed the days of fighting with the ministers, but he was also very lonely.

This kind of loneliness makes him very uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty, are you worried about state affairs?"

Zhu Qizhen's heart warmed, and he got up and smiled: "The little money is here." ”

"The concubine originally wanted to come first, but the slaves outside the palace said that the emperor was in a bad mood." Empress Qian explained, "When the concubine saw that he was embarrassed, she came in on her own. ”

"Huh? No explanation is needed. Zhu Qizhen took her hand, "Come, sit down and talk." ”

"The emperor sits, the emperor has worked hard these days, and the concubines will pinch your shoulders." Queen Qian pulled him to sit down instead, "The concubine has nothing to do all day, and she is not tired." ”

"yes, okay."

Zhu Qizhen leaned back in his chair, squinted comfortably, and enjoyed his wife's massage.

"It's a little money." Zhu Qizhen said, "The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager's maiden family have all been rewarded with knighthoods, but the Qian family has never had a ......."

"The emperor must not be like this, the concubine's father has already been added to the official, if he enters the knighthood again, I am afraid that some people will gossip." Queen Qian politely refused, "How can that block the mouths of the people?" ”

Zhu Qizhen said with a smile: "When the queen enters the palace, her mother's family has been added to the official and entered the knighthood since the queen mother, and the queen mother's father is the same, they can, you can too." ”

"The emperor thinks twice, and now the ministers... It's still not better, besides, the life of the concubine's family is already excellent, and there is no need to give anything more. ”

The matter is so big, how can Queen Qian not hear about it, she doesn't want her husband to be embarrassed.

"It's okay, I don't reward them with high titles, give them an uncle."

"Not really." Empress Qian refused, "If the emperor really loves his concubines, don't reward anything, otherwise how do the ministers think of the concubines, and how do they look at the emperor?" ”

"What they can both do, why can't you?" Zhu Qizhen said helplessly, "You, you will suffer like this." ”

"As the old saying goes, it's a blessing to suffer." Qian smiled and continued to rejuvenate his muscles and bones.

Zhu Qizhen patted her little hand, "Okay, I'm not lacking, you can rest." ”

"Concubines are not tired."

"Then write a letter for me." Zhu Qizhen said, "I said, you write." ”

Queen Qian was surprised, "The emperor doesn't always give orders, how can he ......?" ”

"This person is different, he can be regarded as my grandfather."

"Huh?"

……

At the beginning of May, Zhang Fu sent urgent information about 800 miles.

The army is blessed. In the construction of the territory, the degree of trouble is not large, but the disturbance is too scattered, and it may take some more time, probably around the Mid-Autumn Festival to calm down.

Zhu Qizhen replied urgently for 800 miles, saying that Zhang Fu didn't have to worry about anything, how to fight, how to fight, and make your own decisions;

At the same time, he told Wang Zhen not to break Zhang Fu's elbow, just follow the mixed military skills.

There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need to use suspicious people; Zhu Qizhen understands this truth, not to mention that this person is Zhang Fu.

If you want people to win and fight easily, you have to be empowered.

At the beginning of June, military reports came from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, saying that the Japanese were basically pacified, and only a small group of Japanese robbers remained, but this was no longer the case.

Governors, political envoys, procurators, and commanders of the two provinces...... Calling for the reopening of the sea.

Zhu Qizhen smiled evilly, and made a clear statement to the high-ranking officials of the two provinces: as long as there is still a widow, the sea area cannot be reopened, and Jinyiwei and Dongchang Fanzi will secretly supervise;

Those who are found to have lied about the military situation, regardless of their official position, will be punished as a common crime!

At the end, I also added: I am also thinking about the people of Jiangsu and Zhejiang!
