Domineering Daming

Sun Chengzong also saw the pressure Zhu Youxiao was under, Shen Se thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, you can temporarily put aside the matter of Yuan Keli, and don't ask about it."

Zhu Youxiao couldn't deny that Yuan Keli was a top of the Donglin Party. As a top of the mountain, there are people with power, and similarly, the opponents are also people with power.With Qingliu's temperament, as long as she is repeatedly impeached, she will be humiliated and must resign.If Yuan Keli insisted on resigning from office, coupled with the help of the court, what would happen even if he was the emperor?

Zhu Xu came out of the imperial study with a strange expression.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?"

Cao Wenzhao followed Zhu Xu, looked at his expression and asked in a low voice.

Zhu Xu was thinking while walking, if it was just for the so-called enlightenment, to find a teacher, Zhu Youxiao didn't need to find him specially, and it was not urgent, not to mention that Empress Zhang had just given birth and the end of the year was approaching.

No matter how you look at it, this thing doesn't feel right.

Zhu Xu thought carefully about all the details of entering the imperial study, and the more he thought about it, the more weird and weird he felt.

He had a vague feeling that Zhu Youxiao was deliberately designing something for him a long time ago, but he hasn't seen anything until now.

Suddenly, Zhu Xu remembered Zhu Youxiao's attitude in reading the papers, turned to look at Cao Huachun and asked, "What is Wei Zhongxian doing recently?"

Cao Huachun paused, and said: "Your Highness, there is nothing wrong with it, I just heard that he has some unscrupulous methods for accumulating money, which has caused dissatisfaction in many places."

Zhu Xu nodded and said, "Keep an eye on it, the more accidents will happen at the end of the year."

Zhu Xu's worry was not unreasonable. Wang Ji, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, was forced to resign, and his position was still vacant. In addition to the vacant position of the Chu Party, it could be said that there was another fierce competition.

After waiting quietly in Jinghuan Palace for three days, Empress Zhang was finally able to meet people, and Zhu Xu ran over immediately.

Queen Zhang was lying on the bed, and there was a small cradle by the window, and the baby lay quietly in it.Empress Zhang shook one hand slightly, with a smile on her lips, her motherly brilliance on her face.

Zhu Xu also lay on the edge of the cradle, feeling very happy.The little princess survived, and Queen Zhang didn't have much to worry about. It was a happy result.

Zhu Xu looked at the little princess whose face was still a bit shriveled, stretched out his fingers and nodded, and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, did you name my eldest niece?"

Empress Zhang gathered the quilt and said with a smile: "The emperor has already taken it, and it is called Aimee."

Zhu Xu was really powerless to complain about the name of the Zhu family. He couldn't find the corresponding words for the two words Empress Zhang said. After thinking about it, he said, "Then, is there a nickname?"

Empress Zhang was stunned for a moment, and said, "Your name?"

When Zhu Xu saw it, he said with interest: "Yes, such as steamed buns, steamed buns..."

The corner of Queen Zhang's mouth twitched, and she said in a bad tone: "If you have nothing to do, get out!"

Zhu Xu giggled, shaking the little bed, thinking in his heart, when the little guy grows up, it must be very interesting if others call her princess and he calls Baozi after him.

Thinking about it, I feel that the picture is beautiful!

After a while, Empress Zhang moved her body and waved to Huan'er who was standing outside. Huan'er bowed slightly, and retreated all the maids.

Empress Zhang glanced at her daughter again, and said, "Master Sun, I returned to Beijing not long ago."

Zhu Xu raised his head abruptly, and then said with a simple smile: "Master Sun is really hardworking, and he is still running around at such an advanced age."

Empress Zhang sighed softly, and said, "You, what King Xin said is right, I have to find you a teacher."

Zhu Xu looked at Queen Zhang and his expression changed.Every time Queen Zhang mentions something serious, she will not be without reason. Is she implying something this time?He is a very intelligent person, thinking about it in his heart.

Could it be that Queen Zhang also saw something about Xiong Tingbi's matter?

Seeing that Zhu Xu was silent, Empress Zhang shook the bed lightly again, and said, "I heard that Yang Dahong, Zuoqian Capital Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, is good, and I will arrange it for you in the next year."

Yang Dahong is Yang Lian's nickname.

Zhu Xu's expression became even weirder. What did Empress Zhang's direct arrangement imply?

Empress Zhang looked at Zhu Xu's expression, frowned slightly, and said, "Okay, don't cause trouble for me again a year ago. You are not allowed to touch things like Xiong Tingbi again."

Zhu Xu's back suddenly went cold, and his face tried to keep calm.

Chapter 144 Zhou Jianzong Goes to Prison Again

In Xiong Tingbi's matter, Zhu Xu actually didn't take much part in it, except to speak to Wei Zhongxian and write a letter to Sun Chengzong.

There must be no problem with Wei Zhongxian, so it is Sun Chengzong.

Zhu Xu was thoughtful, and thought to himself, "It seems that the party struggle did not make this Lord Sun completely lose his loyalty to the emperor, and he is still sensible enough."

Although the letter may fall into Zhu Youxiao's hands, there is nothing taboo in his letter, so he doesn't worry about it.It's just that this incident exposed one of his major weaknesses, that is, he didn't understand the courtiers well enough, and he didn't understand the party struggle deeply enough. Once it involved court affairs, his every move would easily reveal his flaws.

Empress Zhang was probably worried that Zhu Xu would do something out of the ordinary, and hoped that there was someone around him who could guide him correctly.

Zhu Xu thought for a long time, then raised his head and said seriously: "Everything is arranged by the emperor's wife."

Only then did Empress Zhang smile with satisfaction, and said: "Well, give me peace of mind a year ago, no matter what happens outside, come to me if you are in trouble, don't act foolishly."

Zhu Xu recovered and agreed with a hippie smile.

After waiting for half an hour to come out, Zhu Xu let out a long sigh.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, there was really no one who belonged to An Sheng, Zhu Youxiao couldn't, the queen couldn't, and neither could he, a worthless prince.

At the same time, he rushed to the capital from Hengzhou Prefecture with a trip of [-] miles, and entered the Tongzhengsi.

This note is the impeachment note of the Hengzhou government. The almanac of the crimes of the mine supervisor was reported at the same time. The Hengzhou government has recently caused a civil uprising because the mine supervisor was too strict. Two county offices have been occupied by rebels and the situation is still expanding. .

Seeing that the chief envoy did not dare to delay at all, he sent it to the cabinet, and the cabinet also hurriedly voted to send it to the supervisor of ceremonies, and it didn't take long for Zhu Youxiao to arrive at his desk.

This excerpt naturally gave Zhu Youxiao a headache, but the headache was only just beginning.

In the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the censor Wang Si looked at Zhou Jianzong angrily, and almost shouted: "Master Zhou, the mine supervisor is really tyrannical, and we should do our best to stop it, so that the emperor can change his mind and withdraw these internal supervisors!"

The same imperial censor, Fang Daren, also said angrily: "That's right, this internal eunuch has cleverly set up a name, tyrannized and restrained, and is lawless. The local officials can't control it, so that it leads to civil uprisings. Is it possible that we can just sit back and ignore it! "

Zhou Jianzong's face was ashen, and he said in a deep voice: "Everyone, the culprit is not the inner prison, but Wei Yan. Since he supervised Dongchang, the mining tax has more than doubled, and the eunuch has become more and more arrogant. No one can stop him! We wait If you want to kill the grass, you have to get rid of Wei Zhongxian first!"

"That's right, brother Zhou, why don't I take this opportunity to write a letter to impeach Wei Zhongxian, and the emperor must send him to prison and punish him, and we must not let him mess with the government!"

"Besides, we should contact the courtiers and fight for reason at the court meeting!"

Zhou Jianzong took it seriously, and immediately wrote a note jointly and handed it to the Secretary of the General Administration.

Naturally, these three people were not the only ones who were filled with righteous indignation. Wei Zhongxian was originally a powder keg, and the mine supervisor was also a thorn in Qingliu's side. In addition, it caused a civil uprising.

Inside the Prison of Rituals, Wei Zhongxian looked at a notebook with a cold expression on his face and a cold light in his eyes.

Especially Zhou Jianzong's excerpts, he saw that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.

Zhou Jianzong compared him to Liu Jin, the eunuch of the former court, in his excerpts, saying that he was a disaster to the country and the people, and demanded that he be dismissed immediately, and even accused him of being the culprit of the civil uprising and the source of all disasters.
