Domineering Daming

"Yes." Cao Huachun said.

"When everyone is here, I will meet them sometime," Zhu Xu said.He has high expectations for this "National Parliament", but everything needs a process. It will take a long time for these members to understand their responsibilities and what to do.

"Yes." Cao Huachun said.

In the evening, Zhu Xu finished handling the government affairs at hand, left the cabinet hall, and returned to Qianqing Palace.

Cao Huachun was beside Zhu Xu, and said: "Your Majesty, Zhang Shangshu from the household department has returned, and it is said that there was a dispute with Bi Ge in the cabinet."

"What are they arguing about?" Zhu Xu asked curiously.

"Old Bi Ge and others want to establish a set of overall law enforcement agencies to deal with various abuses in the 'New Deal', but Zhang Shangshu believes that this will be easy to disperse, which is not conducive to the advancement of the 'New Deal'. An independent monitoring structure..." Cao Huachun said.

Zhu Xu understood. He walked slowly with his hands behind his back, and said, "Zhang Bingwen's words are reasonable. Once caught, there will indeed be various problems, which are not conducive to the promotion of the 'New Deal'. Find a time and let him do it." See me, I want to talk to him."

Zhang Bingwen also saw and heard a lot in Shandong this time, so he must have learned a lot.

Seeing that Zhu Xu was in a good mood, Cao Huachun said, "Yes. Your Majesty, in the small classroom of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, now the female officials in the palace take turns to attend the class. Do you want to watch it?"

Zhu Xu was startled, then smiled and said, "Okay, let's go. By the way, who is in class, and who is participating?"

Cao Huachun followed Zhu Xu, and said, "Going back to the emperor, it is Mr. Qian, the former Hanlin scholar. The attendees are all the female officials in charge of the palaces. I heard that Princess Yongning was also escorted by the empress dowager herself."

Zhu Xu was even more looking forward to it, and said, "Come on, let's go and see how these girls go to class."

Cao Huachun felt that Zhu Xu was more curious about how Princess Yongning attended classes. After all, Her Royal Highness now has the right to go out of the palace freely. I heard that she often ran to the Royal Military Academy recently. For this reason, Queen Mother Zhang often complained to Zhu Xu.

After walking for a long time, Zhu Xu and others quietly came to the small study of the original supervisor of ceremonies. Before they got close, they heard an old man's voice, talking in a cadence.

"To benefit from the tiredness of China and foreign countries, I have been working hard all night long, and I have worked hard without complaining. Now and then, I will know how to avoid my ears..."

Zhu Xu listened to the voice from inside, and stood at the window, looking inside quietly.

I saw a group of ladies in their early twenties sitting upright, looking at the front seriously. An old man in his 60s who was holding a book looked respectful and serious.

Zhu Xu watched and listened for a while, then nodded slightly.Although these women are trapped in the palace, they are naturally smart if they can stand out. With a little training, the affairs of the palace will be smoother in the future, and when they are released at an old age, they can also marry a good family.

After a while, Zhu Xu suddenly whispered, "Where is Yongning?"

Cao Huachun looked embarrassed, and whispered: "Under the window."

Zhu Xu was taken aback, and poked his head in through the window, and sure enough, he saw Xiao Yongning lying on the table by the window, sleeping soundly.

Chapter 1117 Veto of the National Assembly

On the desk, Xiao Yongning was sleeping soundly, scratching his little face from time to time, sleeping without any scruples and frankly.

Li Xiangjun next to her is very serious, with a serious expression, and takes notes from time to time.

Zhu Xu raised his brows immediately, with an ugly expression on his face, reached in, and flicked down on Xiao Yongning's forehead with his fingers.

"Who! Who! Who!" The little girl jumped up violently, baring her teeth and claws, with a rather "fierce" face, and turned her head to look for the person who hit her.

The entire class was silent, everyone looked at her, and then saw Zhu Xu outside.

"Your Majesty sees you." A group of maidservants were startled and stood up in a hurry to salute.

The little girl had already seen Zhu Xu, her face suddenly changed, she was full of flattery, and kept blinking.

Li Xiangjun looked at Zhu Xu with a nervous face, lowered his head, not daring to breathe.

Zhu Xu originally wanted to teach the little girl a lesson, but there was a stern look from the front of the hall. He looked up and saw that Mrs. Qian frowned and looked at him dissatisfied.

Zhu Xu hastily turned slightly sideways and retreated quickly.

Such an old pedant is extremely stubborn about some things, if he drags Zhu Xu into public "education" in a fit of anger, it will be embarrassing.

Master Qian watched Zhu Xu leave, and his expression turned slightly better. He said in a cold voice, "Continue with the class. The sage said, 'Don't be confused outside, don't linger inside', no one is allowed to whisper, and attend class seriously."

Little Yongning didn't pay attention to this old pedant before, but now that Zhu Xu had just left, she immediately sat down obediently, huh, huh, serious.

The old pedants have nothing to do with this Princess Yongning, she is an "audit", not a formal student, so she can only take a look and continue the class.

Zhu Xu came out of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, and with his hands behind his back, he shook his head and said, "This girl, you still have to train her well..."

Cao Huachun followed with a smile and said, "Your Majesty, although the princess is playful, she is not bad in nature, so there is no need to worry."

Zhu Xu glanced at him and sighed inwardly, this niece worried him more than his own daughter.

After walking a few steps, Zhu Xu said, "What did she do in the military academy?"

Cao Huachun said: "The military academy and Su Yinyin reported that the princess has already progressed to the second of the [-] projects at the military academy, and she is learning how to ride a horse recently..."

Zhu Xu said "Oh" and said, "About homework?"

"Not very good." Cao Huachun said.

Cao Huachun said "it's not very good" with his arms around him, I'm afraid it's very bad, or even terrible.

A trace of cruelty appeared in Zhu Xu's eyes, and he said: "In a few days, put the little girl in the cabinet and lock her up in my small bedroom. I will watch her in person. If she can't do her homework well, she will stay locked up."

This kind of thing happens almost every once in a while, Cao Huachun didn't care, said: "Yes."

Zhu Xu walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, and said, "Speaking of the military academy, what's the situation with that Li Dingguo now?"

Cao Huachun recalled a little, and said: "Li Dingguo is the closed disciple of Mr. Sun. He has been cultivating him carefully. He performed very well in the military academy. He also performed outstandingly in the battle against Chahar before. I heard that Mr. Sun Ge has passed away. We are going to arrange for him to enter the army of Chief Governor Cao to train for a while."

Zhu Xu nodded lightly, these arrangements by Sun Chengzong were well-intentioned.Li Dingguo is not yet 20 years old, and Sun Chengzong is over 70 years old. He doesn't have much time to protect and cultivate him. Handing over to Cao Wenzhao, the legendary successor, is undoubtedly the best choice.

"Well, we must pay attention to the cultivation of the younger generation, and we must not form a talent gap." Zhu Xu said as he walked, "The same is true for the Political Yuan. You should pay attention and tell me in time if you have something. I know that officials from the six cabinet departments have Students, as long as they are talents, those who are not suspected of forming a party for self-interest can be vigorously cultivated..."

Cao Huachun followed behind and said, "Your servant understands."

Zhu Xu nodded, looked back at Qianqing Palace not far away, paused for a moment, and said: "Let's stay in Qianqing Palace tonight, not going to the harem."

"Yes." Cao Huachun responded with a somewhat inexplicable expression.

The empress of the main palace has been in the palace for more than half a year, so far there is no movement in her stomach, and the secret voices inside and outside the palace have not stopped.

Just at this time, the Cao Mansion was full of lights and festoons, and it was very lively, as if the whole capital knew that Cao Bianjiao was going to get married.

Cao Wenzhao hasn't come back yet, Cao Wenzhao's younger brother, Cao Wenyao, is hosting the event, busy with entertaining guests.

The status of the Cao family in Daming is extraordinary. The uncles and nephews of the Cao family are all the confidantes of the current emperor, and Cao Wenzhao is known as the number one confidant. Although the Cao family keeps a low profile, almost all the top officials of the Ming Dynasty attended the wedding!

The heads of the six ministries and nine temples of the cabinet, even if they couldn't be present in person, would send their cronies to present generous gifts, and they dared not be indispensable.

For a moment, the entire capital city seemed to be attracted by this incident, and it was very noisy inside and outside.
