Huang Xiaodao: "Brother is not feeling well. He won't go to court tomorrow. This illness should not be taken lightly. He needs to rest more and don't get angry. Let them write the memorials of the ministers. Just let them write them. Brother, just ignore it!"
Zhu Youxiao sighed and said: "Okay, after these things are over, I and my good brother will go back to Dahuangzhuang to live together. We will talk every day, occasionally work, drink some wine, and enjoy the palace." It’s much happier here, dear brother, it’s so tiring to be the emperor!”
Huang Xiao smiled, remembering the leisurely days of Dahuang Village in the past few days, which really made people miss him. During these two days in the palace, he really wanted to go back, but Zhu Youxiao always disagreed, saying that he wanted Huang Xiao to go back. Xiao was recuperating here, and he was worried about things in the court, so he had to ask Huang Xiao to help him.
Huang Xiao had no choice but to agree. Thinking about it now, it is indeed not easy to be an emperor at the end of a dynasty and an emperor who wants to make a difference. I didn't see that after Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youjian came to the throne, his hair had turned white in his twenties. Eyes with crow's feet can be said to mean eating late at night and working hard in the morning and evening.
According to historical records, "he rises up when the cock crows, stays awake at night, often becomes sick from overwork, and there is never any entertainment in the palace."
Although Chongzhen had lofty ambitions, worked hard to govern, wore clothes and ate at all times, and was personally involved in everything, he had neither a plan to govern the country nor the skills to appoint others.
In addition, he was harsh, jealous, and suspicious, and frequently denounced, questioned, beheaded, and tortured ministers. His cruelty and callousness were even worse than those of Wei Zhongxian.
Because he later distrusted civil and military officials, Chongzhen also frequently adjusted officials. In 17 years, he actually changed 17 ministers of the Ministry of Justice and 50 cabinet bachelors.
This is something to say later, Huang Xiao just felt a little emotional.
Zhu Youxiao said: "I just listened to what my good brother said. Not to mention the Tianjin Wei incident, even the defeat of Liuhe was so quarrelsome that I just ignored it! I just wait for Wei Zhongxian to find out the result! If it is true It was Zhu Chunchen who did it!"
Zhu Youxiao snorted and said: "Even if Duke Chengguo has an iron certificate of alchemy, I will punish him severely! This kind of behavior is like treason and endangering the enemy. Even if Taizu personally experienced it, he will be severely punished!"
Huang Xiao nodded.
Zhu Youxiao thought for a while and said: "Duke Cheng is to be executed. The title of Duke of Cheng was granted by his ancestor, so let's demote him. How about this punishment?"
If Huang Xiao's idea is to follow, the Cheng Guogong lineage must be uprooted, but Zhu Youxiao has already made a decision, and he can't say anything. In addition, Zhu Youxiao has a headache from time to time, and Huang Xiao doesn't want to do it because of this. Let him worry again.
Speaking of which, Zhu Youxiao's headache was caused by himself.
Seeing that Huang Xiao did not answer, Zhu Youxiao said: "Brother, in these days, I also know the harm and burden that the nobles and vassal kings have put on the Ming Dynasty as you told me, but for the time being, I don't think it has reached that point yet." As for the timing, if we attack them rashly, I feel that we are still not sure enough.
Dear brother, don’t blame me for being indecisive, wait until we are strong enough to settle everything! I will definitely get rid of these moths again! "
Zhu Youxiao went out of his way to explain it very sincerely.
Huang Xiao was moved by it!
He knew that it was really amazing that Zhu Youxiao could make such a decision and have such a plan! After all, compared with their honors, those Zhu family vassal kings are relatives of the same clan and ancestors as Zhu Youxiao!
"Brother, don't say that. I don't have any objections. As for the Zhu family clan, if the Americas and other places are acquired by the Ming Dynasty in the future, we can also select some clans with meritorious deeds and responsibility to entrust overseas. But there is no rush in this. You have to wait until the time is right and then guide it.
If there is no success, then we can also reward land overseas and let them rely on their own efforts. It is also a way to cancel the current treatment! "
Zhu Youxiao nodded and said: "My dear brother, I really hope these clans can understand and follow your good intentions. My dear brother, every time he talks about these feudal kings, his words are full of anger. If my dear brother hadn't really been for the Ming Dynasty, For the sake of Jiangshan, if my dear brother hadn’t treated me with such sincerity, my dear brother’s original intention would not have been this way. I will keep this in mind, thank you very much, dear brother!”
Huang Xiao smiled politely.
Regarding these pig-like lords and nobles, history has already made a conclusion, and there is no room for further explanation.
Of course, there are a few who are responsible, but when the building is about to collapse, most of them want money rather than their lives, which makes people speechless!
Huang Xiao's proposal can only be said to be a good wish. If people with lofty ideals can gain a foothold overseas, their flesh will always rot in the pot, so what's wrong?
For example, the Anglo-Saxons (anti-crabs, henceforth called the Gugesa people) spread out their branches and leaves. New Zealand, Australia, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada were all branched off from the Gugesa people. They had the same culture, the same species, and the same spirit connected branches, and established a Five Dog Alliance...
After the Ming Dynasty immigrated overseas, what will happen hundreds of years later?
Huang Xiao can imagine with his feet that if there are 7 billion people, we will account for more than half, Chinese will definitely become the world's common language, and Han people will be the first class people...
As a person of later generations, Huang Xiao has his own unique obsessions. You can call him an angry youth, or you can disagree with his ideas.
But that’s what he thinks and what he wants to do!
It wasn't until Zhang Lizhen and Zhang Yan came over that they ended the conversation.
Zhu Youxiao arranged the matter for Wei Zhongxian and asked him to secretly investigate the weapons of Duke Cheng within a time limit.
"Old Wei, don't forget what I told you yesterday." Huang Xiao said.
Wei Zhongxian smiled and went.
Zhu Youxiao asked: "What's the matter?"
Huang Xiao smiled and said nothing.
Zhu Youxiao didn't ask further questions and said jokingly to Zhang Lizhen.
"Zhen'er, are you here to see Huang Xiandi again?"
Zhang Lizhen blushed and said: "Well, I'm afraid that he will be bored in the palace and come over to talk. Also, today is the day of the Zhenbao Pavilion lottery. I want to go out for a walk with Huang Xiao. Is that okay, Your Majesty?"
Zhu Youxiao smiled and said, "This is your business. I'm tired."
After Zhu Youxiao finished speaking, he smiled and left.
Zhang Lizhen squatted down, took out a sweat towel, wiped Huang Xiao's sweat, and said softly: "How are you feeling today? Does the wound still hurt?"
Huang Xiao smiled and said: "With a beautiful woman like you, asking for help every day, how can I feel pain? Your change is so great, I can't believe it."
Zhang Lizhen smiled sadly and said: "I used to be too ignorant and always made you angry. I was a spoiled young lady. I was spoiled by my father and my sister since I was a child. I always spoke and acted inappropriately and didn't know what was wrong. .
This incident made me feel like I have grown up a lot. I swore to myself that no matter what happens in the future, I will listen to you and will never make you dislike me. I will also protect you..."
Huang Xiao reached out and held Zhang Lizhen's little hand, and said softly: "It doesn't have to be like this. You were a little willful in the past, but you have no bad intentions. You are a lovely beauty and a good woman who is clean and self-respecting. Everyone has his own Personality, it’s not a big deal, don’t think too much about it.”
Huang Xiao does not deny that Zhang Lizhen is beautiful, nor does he deny that it may have been because of Zhang Lizhen's resemblance to Zhang Yan, nor does he deny that he went out of his way to please Zhang Lizhen because of her identity!
However, Huang Xiao cannot deny that after these days of getting along, he has fallen in love with Zhang Lizhen. In this era where ethics and education are more important than heaven, it is very rare to have a self-aware girl like Zhang Lizhen. If they are all the same, it will be boring. Boring.
But he couldn't talk to Zhang Lizhen or others about this. Even if he was misunderstood as a dog licker, he could only smile bitterly to himself!
Zhu Youxiao made fun of the first time Huang Xiao and Zhang Lizhen met several times, saying that Huang Xiao seemed to be obsessed at that time, which made everyone at the time look stupid!
Because of this, Huang Xiao left a lustful impression on Zhu Youxiao and Zhang Yan. After Zhu Youxiao revealed his identity this time, he proposed to Huang Xiao that he wanted to draft a talent show in the name of the emperor, but in the end he secretly secretly selected Chen Cang for Huang Xiao. Eight beauties!
This suggestion made Huang Xiao both touched and speechless.
However, no one is perfect, and having shortcomings is not a bad thing. If he really had no desires or desires, Zhu Youxiao would probably think Huang Xiao was unreliable.
Of course, Zhu Youxiao would not think this way, but Huang Xiao had to eliminate this in advance.
Therefore, although he rejected Zhu Youxiao's proposal, his subconscious behavior was a little bit out of line. For example, in the past few days, there were a lot more little tricks between him and Zhang Lizhen.
