Chapter 2501: The Concerns of the Household Slaves

There are many more flowers, plants and trees in the imperial city, which is a new thing for many people. There seemed to be more liveliness in the palace.

Wanwan listened to the monotonous chirping of birds outside and said, "There's only one!"

Qingye saw the gloom on her eyebrows and said, "Princess, there will be more next year!"

The eldest princess of the Xuande Dynasty sat alone by the window, her face slightly pale, like a little flower that could not see the sun, gradually withering.

"Well, next year...next year there will be a lot more."

Wanwan's eyebrows became more gloomy. Qingye remembered that the Queen Mother had recently been recruiting a consort, so he advised: "Princess, let's take a look at it then."

There was fear in Wanwan's eyes, and she clenched her hands tightly. She exerted so much force that Aoba heard the sound from her joints.

"Princess……"

In front of the window in the afternoon, two girls looked out sadly.

A dog came in quietly outside.

Xiaofang slowly walked to Wanwan's feet, then raised his head and wagged his tail.

Wanwan smiled, as if a few faint strokes suddenly appeared on the white paper. The strokes were plain but refreshing.

…

Since being canonized as the prince, Corn's peaceful life has completely disappeared.

In the morning, I was woken up by the palace maids in a daze. While I was still napping, I was finished with the washing work, and then had breakfast.

After breakfast, it’s study time, and the location is Wenhua Hall.

Because he was still young, Zhu Zhanji had a sedan prepared.

After arriving at the Wenhua Hall, Mr. Du Qian, the enlightenment teacher, bowed and saluted, and then Corn bowed in return.

Then the corn sat down.

Du Qian did not open the book, but reviewed the lessons taught yesterday for Corn, and then began to write the post.

After half an hour passed, the morning homework was over.

This is the time appointed by the emperor, which adds up to one hour every day, and then slowly increases.

The corn arrived all the way to Qianqing Palace, and Zhu Zhanji was still dealing with political affairs with the auxiliary political bachelors.

"What did you learn this morning?"

"My son has learned... the Thousand-Character Classic and calligraphy."

The little prince stood below, but he stood very straight and spoke seriously.

Yang Rong looked at the prince like this, stroked his beard and smiled, and then gradually became indifferent.

Jin Youzi looked much older when he returned to the capital. He glanced at Corn, then lowered his head in confusion.

"Have a good time learning, go back."

Zhu Zhanji seemed very satisfied with his son. After Corn left, he smiled and said: "The prince knows a lot of words now. Last time I saw his handwriting, it was almost Mo Tuan, but he was childish and cute, which made me happy." I ate an extra piece of cake.”

Everyone smiled, but the atmosphere was not very warm.

Zhu Zhanji's smile gradually faded and he said, "What does Marquis Taining say about the follow-up in Shandong?"

Jin Youzi was still in a daze, and Yang Shiqi coughed dryly, and then whispered: "Chen Zhong."

Zhu Zhanji saw Yang Shiqi's little move and heard what he thought was a quiet reminder, but he didn't get angry.

Jin Youzi coughed dryly and said, "Your Majesty, Marquis Taining only said that he was guilty."

Zhu Zhanji smiled and said nothing. But Yang Rong knew that Chen Zhong's apology memorial had arrived in the palace a long time ago. If the emperor didn't say anything, he would hang him up high, making you fearful and cautious, not daring to go too far.

This kind of technique is the emperor's specialty in peacetime, but at the end of the dynasty, it can cause military commanders to alienate or even betray if they are not careful.

"The Hami side often fights with the coalition forces' cavalry, and the losses are not small. Let's go back and ask the Ministry of War and the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion to gather together to discuss how to mobilize them."

The emperor seemed a little careless, so Yang Shiqi reminded: "Your Majesty, they have been competing with the Ming Dynasty in Yilibaoli. According to the Marquis of Baoding, this is a loss-making business for the coalition forces. They are still doing a loss-making business, and the Ming Dynasty wants to be careful!"

Zhu Zhanji said coldly: "I am in charge of the Ming Dynasty. I am the commander-in-chief. Each of the six ministries is in charge of its own business. You and I are assisting the king. If I take care of everything, how can you feel at ease with your salary?"

The emperor got angry for no reason,

Several people hurriedly apologized.

"Let's break up."

Zhu Zhanji drove away the ministers calmly, and then called An Lun to ask questions.

"Is there someone fighting for Chen Zhong?"

This question confused An Lun, and he immediately thought of his old rival Jin Yiwei.

"Your Majesty, the news has not been confirmed yet. I will send someone to investigate. It will take a few days to get any news."

Zhu Zhanji glanced at him and said, "Go ahead."

An Lun resigned and after leaving the palace, he felt wet with sweat.

He did not return to Dongchang, but left the palace all the way.

When he appeared outside the gate of Jinyiwei, no one stopped him.

"Our family wants to see Shenyang."

After seeing Shenyang, An Lun pointed at the miscellaneous people.

"Everyone get down."

Shenyang was not prepared to entertain An Lun, and there was not even a cup of tea.

"Did you and Uncle Xing have a tacit understanding about Chen Zhong?"

Shen Yang said calmly: "What do you want to know?"

An Lun said: "His Majesty asked before how many relatives in Beijing are working for Chen Zhong, how can our family answer? It doesn't matter if you have a tacit understanding, but your Majesty asked our family. You are not the one who made a fool of yourself, so naturally you can snicker. , but Jin Yiwei doesn’t want to cooperate with Dongchang next time?”

Shen Yang said: "It's not a big deal in the first place. Isn't it a matter of who gets the upper hand among relatives? Your Majesty is just dissatisfied when asking you. This dissatisfaction is not directed at you. Why are you anxious?"

An Lun said coldly: "Our family is close to His Majesty. If we can't answer today, and if we can't answer tomorrow, we can go to guard the mausoleum the day after."

Shenyang was unmoved. If An Lun was driven to guard the mausoleum, all the Jinyi Guards would be happy.

An Lun changed the topic and said: "Before Xing Hebo left, he asked the people in Dongchang to cooperate. This journey was probably a cleanup, but His Majesty was recently discussing household registration, and even discussed whether to open the night ban, but There are many opponents in the court, so it is not the right time for Xing Hebo to go out."

Shen Yang shook his head and said disdainfully: "You, An Lun, came here to check the news yourself. If word gets out, my Jin Yiwei will become famous."

An Lun shouted: "You and I are His Majesty's domestic slaves, don't pretend to be noble! Fang Xing is not in the capital, and it will be very difficult for Your Majesty to support him independently. It's just that the Jin Yiwei are working together to help each other. Do we still have to watch indifferently?"

Shen Yang cursed: "What does it mean to watch with cold eyes? The Jinyiwei serve the country outside the border wall and overseas. How many people die every year? Dongchang spends all day staring at the officials inside the Ming Dynasty. How can they be compared with me, the Jinyiwei?"

An Lun slapped the table, stood up and said, "There are still many good men in our Dongchang. In Samarkand, it was my Dongchang people who were scouting and risking their lives. What were you doing at that time?"

Shen Yang laughed angrily and said, "Samarkand! Do you know how many of Jin Yiwei's brothers died in Samarkand and on the road leading to the meat fans?"

In this regard, Dongchang was no match for Jin Yiwei, so An Lun changed his direction: "I went all over Dongchang to clean up the fields, and how many people were arrested? If not, do you think those rebellions would be louder than thunder?"

Shen Yang pointed to the door and said, "It's not too much to say, please!"

An Lun snorted coldly, but after taking two steps, he turned back and said, "Some of those relatives were in cahoots with the officials. Dongchang investigated carefully and found that they were going to give Uncle Xinghe an unprecedented knock on the door. "

Shen Yang was startled, and then said: "What do you know?"

An Lun said disdainfully: "Our family has said that everyone in Dongchang is His Majesty's domestic slaves. Do you think the domestic slaves have something to avoid?"

Shen Yang breathed out and said: "Your Majesty has been aware of this matter for a long time. He was originally going to take action, but Ke Xing and Bo suddenly asked themselves to send His Highness the King of Han to the sea and clean up overseas."

After An Lun got the answer, he cupped his hands and said, "This is considered a loyal minister who cares for His Majesty. Let's go."

Shen Yang said: "Don't think you can hide it from everyone, An Lun, be careful if you walk too much at night and you may encounter evil spirits!"

An Lun had already reached the door. He stopped when he heard this and said: "Our family's actions can withstand inspection. If you are brave, then go ahead. Our family is waiting for the day when you will make a contribution!"
