Zhu Xu stood up, walked to his desk, and said with a normal expression: "What kind of rumor is it?"

Cao Huachun followed up a few steps, and said: "It's all commonplace, saying that the disaster is a warning from heaven to the emperor, saying that the emperor has no virtue, and speculating on the succession of the late emperor, and there are nursery rhymes."

Zhu Xu said "Well", it's nothing new, there are a lot of gossip about him in the capital, and there are too many lice, so he waved his hand and said: "Let the Governor's Council control it, this kind of Things can’t be stopped.”

Cao Huachun looked at Zhu Xu, hesitantly said: "Someone made a report, please send the emperor's 'crime order' to appease the people's grievances, the report was suppressed by the cabinet, and did not go to the Supervisor of Ceremonies."

Zhu Xu raised his eyebrows and looked up at Cao Huachun.

In history, Chongzhen issued an imperial edict to sin against himself several times, obviously not on his own will. Is this an old routine used on him?

The "Zui Ji Zhao" is not used casually. The two most famous people in history are Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Chongzhen.Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wanted to alleviate the country's instability caused by the heavy war, and it did play a role, so later emperors often followed suit.However, Chongzhen's "edict of sin against oneself" has an extremely "sad" color. It is the "edict" of the subjugation of the country, and the last one was written by Meishan before he hanged himself.

At this time, if Zhu Xu issued a "crime order", he would undoubtedly dig his own grave and admit that everything before was "wrong", and the voice of "anyway" would fill the sky!

It's sinister!

Chapter 870 Nursery Rhymes

"The cabinet is also the starting point." Zhu Xu smiled, and picked up the playbook casually.

This matter, obviously the cabinet also saw the problem, and deliberately suppressed it and didn't send it up.

Cao Huachun looked at Zhu Xu and said, "Your Majesty, how should we deal with it?"

"Don't worry about it." Zhu Xu said: "Let the cabinet deal with it. From now on, let's all save our lives and put a burden on the cabinet's shoulders."

Cao Huachun understood, and said: "Observe the order."

The emperor of the Ming Dynasty entered the cabinet and governed together with his ministers. This caused a little shock in the government and the public, but there were more positives. After all, this was a manifestation of the emperor's "diligence".

However, Zhu Xu's reputation has long been negative, and most people hate him from top to bottom. This "positive" is really a drop in the bucket.After a little ripple, it disappears.On the contrary, Cao Wenzhao's "angry tyrant" Shuntian Mansion attracted Mr. Sun Ge to take five hundred elite soldiers to "suppress" it, which sparked heated discussions in the capital, and it was very lively.

On the first day Zhu Xu was in the cabinet, he was quite calm. There was no disturbance, and no "big incident" happened. This made many people watching sigh with relief.

But the next day - the emperor took a leave of absence.

In the Warm Pavilion, Zhu Xu changed into a regular dress and was looking in the mirror, arranging his collar and combing his hair from time to time.

Cao Huachun and the others stood not far behind, and a little closer was a small figure—Princess Yongning.

After Zhu Xu tidied up her clothes, she went to the soft side again, reaching for the scarf.The little girl quickly ran over, picked it up, and handed it to Zhu Xu with both hands.

Zhu Xu didn't seem to see her, so he tied it up and turned around to get the teacup. The little guy took the first step and handed the teacup to Zhu Xu.

Zhu Xu took it, took a sip, and said to Cao Huachun, "Are you ready?"

Cao Huachun said: "It's ready, Miss Zhang has already notified."

That's right, today is the emperor and queen traveling together, burning incense and worshiping Buddha.

"Walk."

Zhu Xu was in a good mood, packed up and was ready to go out.As soon as he turned around, Xiao Yongning followed behind him, step by step.

Cao Huachun and the others had been prepared for a long time, they changed into casual clothes, and when they heard the news, they sent the order down, and a group of people outside also quickly moved.

Zhu Xu left the Nuan Pavilion and quickly walked out of the Qianqing Palace.

Xiao Yongning raised his head and followed behind Zhu Xu, pursing his lips with a serious expression.

Zhu Xu led a group of people straight to Xihua Gate, and the little girl followed along without saying a word.

The moment he stepped out of the Xihua Gate, Zhu Xu turned his head to look at Xiao Yongning with a deep smile.

The little guy remained expressionless, and said rather reservedly and politely: "Uncle Emperor, I want to protect you."

Zhu Xu smiled slightly, stepped forward and pressed her shoulder, and said, "Come on, turn around, do you see the road in the distance? Keep walking and don't stop, you will have novel discoveries..."

There is no place in the palace that the little girl is not familiar with. She blinked when she heard the words, and turned around but turned around again, so she turned her head and said with a sweet smile: "Uncle Huang, what did you find?"

"Those who make small reports will be punished." Zhu Xu pushed her away and said, "Hurry up, remember, don't stop!"

The little girl immediately turned around and ran back, pursing her lips, and said, "Uncle Emperor, young people always make mistakes."

Zhu Xu nodded in agreement, and said, "Well, if you make a mistake, you should be punished, for example, you are not allowed to leave the palace."

The little girl raised her head and said, "Uncle Huang's book says that if young people make mistakes, they can be forgiven at least three times."

"This girl has read a lot of my books..."

In Zhu Xu's study room, there are quite a few "proses" he wrote in his spare time. They are all messy and completely unsystematic. The little girl has been soaking in them for the past two years.

"Okay, I'll give you three chances. If you can't convince me, you should give up." Zhu Xu put his hands behind his back and said with a blank expression on the little girl's face.

The little girl looked at Zhu Xu, blinked, and said, "Uncle Huang, she is a niece, the daughter of your sister-in-law, we are as close as brothers and sisters..."

The corner of Zhu Xu's mouth twitched, what this ghost girl said was nonsense.

"Continue to the second one." Zhu Xu said lightly.

The little girl pursed her lips, looked at Zhu Xu, and said, "He can help the emperor's uncle a lot. I will often speak well of the emperor's uncle at the mother's side. The old concubine also likes me very much..."

Zhu Xu remained motionless, and continued: "The last one."

The little girl pursed her lips, blinked her big eyes, looked at Zhu Xu, and said after a long time, "My aunt invited me to go with me today."

Zhu Xu tilted his head slightly, and said, "Really?"

The little girl took out a letter from her purse, handed it to Zhu Xu and said, "Yes."

Zhu Xu took it over and took a look, then the corner of her mouth twitched, this girl is really cunning, she sent a letter to Zhang Yun yesterday.

Whether it's out of favor with others or out of embarrassment, Zhang Yun has no reason to reject this little girl.

Zhu Xu returned the letter to her, nodded deeply and said: "You have convinced me, I will take you out today. In the next six months, you will have no chance to leave the palace again."

The little girl immediately opened her eyes wide, hugged Zhu Xu's arm, swayed it, and said in a tired voice: "Uncle Huang, I know I was wrong, so don't be angry. From now on, people will listen to you, and you can write as many words as you want..."

"No need to discuss!" Zhu Xu took the little guy by the collar, turned around and left the Xihua Gate.

The little guy was next to Zhu Xu, trying to please her in different ways, but Zhu Xu ignored her, this girl was too smart, she had to be restrained, otherwise she would be repaid in the future, no wonder Empress Dowager Zhang had nothing to do with her.

When Zhu Xu was out of the palace, the cabinet drafted a series of personnel appointments through cabinet discussions, which were promulgated by the Ministry of Officials.

Once it was issued, the court was very calm, but the people were quite excited, and there were discussions in teahouses and restaurants.

"The movement of the imperial court is really big, hasn't there been such a change for a long time?"
