Hongzhi died, and the Ming Empire did not stagnate because of this!

The elders of the three cabinets headed by Liu Jian, Xie Qian, and Li Dongyang read out Hongzhi's posthumous photo at the second day of the court meeting, and respectfully invited the crown prince Zhu Houzhao to ascend the throne.

The prince does not want to!

Hundreds of officials, please!

The prince refused again!

Hundreds of officials, three please!

The crown prince reluctantly accepted it, chose an auspicious day to ascend the throne, and then arranged for the burial of Emperor Daxing, which was completed, and more than a month passed.

At this point, the crown prince Zhu Houzhao finally became the emperor from the prince, and the era name is Zhengde!

The so-called once a son of heaven and a courtier, the new emperor ascended the throne, whether it was the court or the inner court, some positions have changed.

The first changes were the two positions of the celebrant and the imperial horse supervisor, which were extremely relied on by the emperor.

Wang Yue, the former chief of ceremonies, was arranged by Zhengde to Nanjing as a town guard eunuch according to the will of Emperor Hongzhi, which can be regarded as a pension.

The new chief of ceremonial supervisors, Liu Jin, who has been with the prince since childhood, also serves as the official of Dongchang Factory, and is so powerful that he can be said to be the first person in the inner court.

The new head of the Imperial Horse Supervisor is also a young eunuch Gu Dayong, who has been with the prince since he was a child, and is in charge of the four guard battalions such as Wu Xiang, Teng Xiang, Left Guard and Right Guard.

After the two important positions in the inner court were changed, there were also some changes in the court.

First of all, the cabinet elder Liu Jianzhishi, the division of positions such as the first assistant and the second assistant of the cabinet was not clear in the past, but this time, with Liu Jianzhishi, Li Dongyang was officially determined as the first assistant of the cabinet, responsible for leading the cabinet and sharing worries for the emperor.

Secondly, the new emperor ascended the throne and vigorously promoted a group of young officials to enter the court, such as Lin Nuo's old friend Xu Wei, who was awarded the position of a member of the ministry.

The last appointment was to formally appoint Lin Nuo as the commander of the Jinyi Guard in the court meeting.

Although Hongzhi had made an appointment before, it had not been announced in public in the court, and most of the other spies in Jinyiwei had been cleared up by Lin Nuo, so the hundred officials still don't know much about this matter.

Perhaps because he felt that he owed Lin Nuo something to the teacher, Zhengde even crowned Lin Nuo as the left governor of the Five Armies, according to the rank, he belonged to the military attache Zhengyipin, and in terms of level, it was almost at the top.

However, for Zhengde's appointment, the civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty were indignant, not angry that the new emperor's appointment of Lin Nuo was too high, but that Zhengde, the new emperor, was too bullying!

Who is Lin Nuo?

In the fifteenth year of Hongzhi, he tried to explore the flowers, a poor student, did not rely on any relationship, and stepped into the Ming officialdom by relying on his own knowledge, which can be said to be an example for countless scholars in the Ming Empire.

And now, the example set in the eyes of this civil official group was actually given by the emperor to the Jinyi Guard, even if it was given the position of Zuo Du Governor of Zhengyipin, but in the eyes of the civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty, it was also a humiliation for Lin Nuo, and it was also a humiliation for the entire civil official group.

Who doesn't know that the Zuo Governor of the Fifth Army has no real name, it can only be regarded as a false position, the emperor, if you take a military attache vacant position, you will get a military attache into the military attache system, aren't you disgusting?

Although no one has said this sentence explicitly, in the hearts of today's Ming literati, this is what they think.

Who doesn't know that today's military attaché and noble group has long since declined, to put it mildly, today's military attaché and noble, that is, the sheep raised in the sheepfold by civilian officials, can only stay in the sheepfold honestly and let the civilian group arrange.

Zhengde got Lin Nuo, a rising star who was pinned on by the civilian clique, into the military attache system, which immediately aroused the anger of the public.

Some speech officials even sprayed directly, which made Zhengde very discouraged, and some of them couldn't get off the stage.

Even Xu Wei felt resentful for Lin Nuo, he didn't say anything, but kept asking the new emperor, hoping to make some changes to Lin Nuo's position, even if it was unpleasant to look at him again, and put him out to be the prefect somewhere.

Zhengde held back his anger and looked at this scene in the court meeting, he was still too young, and in the face of this situation where the opinions of Manchu officials were opposed to his own, he didn't know what to do for a while.

During this period, he turned his gaze to the side of the military attaché and noble group many times, but those military attachés and nobles stood honestly on the side one by one, with the appearance of 'you can quarrel casually, we will take a look', angry Zhengde teeth itched, and scolded the waste in his heart!

At this moment, Zhengde finally understood what his father had told him, in the court, loyal ministers and capable ministers are needed, but corrupt officials and ministers are also needed!

Corrupt officials can stand up for power, and ministers can stand on the emperor's side and tear up with other officials, so as not to make hundreds of officials stand together against the emperor.

At this moment, Zhengde urgently needs a minister to stand up and share his worries, but unfortunately, this time the appointment of Lin Nuo as the commander of the Jinyi Guard has already violated the interests of the entire civil official group, even if some officials want to be a sycophant, they dare not stand up at this time.

Otherwise, if you commit public anger, you may really be beaten to death in the court!

However, although Zhu Houzhao, the little emperor, was young, his temper was also very stubborn, and from beginning to end, he did not say that the position of Lin Nuo Jinyiwei was appointed by the first emperor.

In fact, if he said it, he could forcibly end the matter in the name of the emperor's will, but in that case, the one who will bear the infamy in the future may be Emperor Hongzhi, who died not long ago.

In fact, the reason why Hongzhi appointed Lin Nuo as Jinyiwei before his death, and did not wait until the crown prince ascended the throne before appointing him, was to protect the prince and was willing to bear this infamy for the prince, so as not to let the prince oppose the ministers in the future because of this matter.

It's just a pity that the father-son relationship is deep, Zhu Houzhao thought that his father had just died, if he was scolded by the civil officials because of this matter, then he would be too unfilial as a son.

"My father is a benevolent monarch, and he shouldn't be burdened with infamy, and this infamy should be borne by my son!"

That's what Zhengde thought in his heart, and he did so, and all day, he almost didn't get a drop of water, just sat on the Jinluan Palace, confronted the ministers, and refused to back down at all, unwilling to change the order.

From beginning to end, neither the monarch nor the minister had the intention of letting Lin Nuo make a choice in front of him.

Zhengde didn't want Lin Shi to be embarrassed, and Li Dongyang and other ministers were to protect Lin Nuo.

In the eyes of the civil officials, Lin Nuo was definitely unwilling to enter the military attache system, but if he was allowed to express his reluctance in the court in person, wouldn't it be disrespectful to the decree? If he was disgusted by the emperor because of this, then his future future would be completely cut off.

I have to say that when the civil official group is united for its own interests, even the emperor will have a feeling of powerlessness, and Zhengde at this time is this feeling.

At this moment, for this so-called Great Dynasty Meeting, he was bored for no reason, and he didn't even want to continue to live in this Forbidden City!
