Chen Youzong did not laugh and agree as before, but replied quite seriously: "I have great respect for the Prime Minister, but I would like to ask the Prime Minister to understand that the father and son of monarch and minister are the laws of nature. Your Highness is young but he is also the crown prince. I Wait for the ministers to bow down and look up to you!"
Hu Weiyong responded: "That's natural. Brother Chen seems to have some misunderstandings. Why don't you and I come over tonight and have a drink together to settle the old grudges?"
The losses that have been caused are irreversible, and it is most important to stop the losses in time. In any case, it is extremely uneconomical to confront the officials of the East Palace now, especially during the period when the prince is patrolling the country. .
If a tacit understanding cannot be reached as soon as possible, not to mention settling Li Cunyi's Tujie matter, I am afraid that even Huaixi Wuxun will be in trouble, and Zhongshu Province and the Sixth Department will not be able to live in peace.
It's not that he's afraid of Chen Youzong and others. If the prince doesn't step aside, he, the prime minister, controls the six departments of Zhongshu, and can drive them out of the capital with a lot of effort.
After all, most of the core members of the East Palace family are in the local area. They are the team trained by the prince himself. They are the future pillars of the imperial court, but it is still a long time before they enter the palace.
Chen Youzong pondered for a moment before agreeing: "Then I will bother the Prime Minister."
Judging from His Highness's attitude today, it is obvious that he does not want to see the situation evolve further. The lesson and warning have been given, and mutual compromise is indeed a top priority.
Although their faces have been torn in the court just now, both sides now hate each other, and they will not be stingy with the opportunity to add insult to injury in the future, but after all, it is not the most important thing now, and fighting has to be done at the right time. This is rational Mature politician.

After Zhu Biao went to court, he returned to Jinshen Hall. He first wrote down clearly what happened in the past few days and arranged for someone to rush it and deliver it to his father. Although without this letter, Zhu Biao must have found out through other channels, but outsiders would still know about it after all. I can't see clearly the number of paths here.
Father and son must maintain a tacit understanding, otherwise the two issued decrees will cause huge troubles. When Zhu Biao was in Beijing, Zhu Biao was his deputy and would never change any of his father's decisions. Okay, let’s just let it go if I can’t persuade you.
A political decree, at a large scale, involves countless people from all over the country, but at a small scale, it is just a political decree. Whether it can be fully implemented depends on the situation. However, two decrees will lead to division and confrontation in the imperial power, which will lead to instability in the country and the country.
The emperor is the emperor after all. Zhu Biao respects his father's will and authority. If everything goes according to his ideas, Zhu Yuanzhang will not be the Zhu Yuanzhang who swept away the heroes and destroyed Yuanting to reopen the sun and the moon. A firm will is just It’s just the most basic quality of a hero.
The current situation is the same. As the crown prince, Zhu Biao stayed in the capital to supervise the country's governance. No matter what decision he made, if it was vetoed by Lao Zhu who was outside, then it would be a big problem.
This is also the reason why emperors from ancient times would not let the prince take power when he was young and powerful. There are two days in the sky and two masters in every hour. It is not necessarily a real feud between father and son, but there are too many people below who want to seek opportunities. Their dissatisfaction with their current situation will promote divisions and struggles in the court.
After finishing the letter to her father, she wrote a letter to her mother, which mostly talked about the daily interesting things of the two children and Wang Rui Nuanyu's physical condition. What Empress Ma is most happy about now is hearing about her precious grandson. I hope that my children and grandchildren will be happy in the future.
After finishing two long letters home, Liu Jin came over to report: "Li Liangdi has sent rock sugar bird's nest porridge."
Zhu Biao put down his pen and said, "Bring it in. It's difficult for her to be interested. You go and pick out some exquisite jewelry from inside and send them over."
"No, I will thank you for Li Liangdi first."
Liu Jin agreed with a smile, and Zhu Biao couldn't help but joked: "You are so caring, why don't I give you a favor and go over there to serve you?"
Liu Jin hurriedly smiled and said: "I am so happy to see you. I have been working hard all morning. I quickly went in to make some appetizers. I will order you to make some of my favorite food later."
Liu Jin bowed and retreated, walking out of the side door of the Jinshen Palace. He saw a little palace maid carrying a food box and waiting eagerly. Liu Jin stepped forward and took the food box and handed it to Zhao Huaian behind him.
"You go back and report to Liangdi first. We will go to the inner city to pick out a few treasures and then we will go there."
The palace maid smiled and saluted frantically: "I have thanked Eunuch Liu. I have thanked Eunuch Liu. Liang Di will be happy to know that. I will go back now."
What kind of place is Jinshen Palace? Who dares to send things here easily on weekdays? It just happens that it is Li Yan. She knew that her own uncle had just committed a crime and was thrown into the sky prison, but she still dared to be so blatant, without caring at all if Zhu Biao did not give her this dignity. , how embarrassed she would be.
But no one was surprised. This was what Li Liangdi could do, to show off wantonly, hoping that everyone in the world would know the prince's preference for her.
After testing the poison, a portion of slightly cold porridge was served to Zhu Biao. This was why he didn't like the women in the East Palace bringing him food on weekdays. He really couldn't eat anything hot, so he might as well not eat it.
What Shangshan Bureau implements is man-to-man to man-to-man to man-to-man. There are people supervising each other at all steps of a dish. That is to say, if you are not buying everyone, you will not have the opportunity to do anything.
There is also a housekeeper who is dedicated to recording the category and producer of each meal. It is so detailed that even who washes the dishes, prepares the dishes, and cooks the dishes is clearly known. If there is a problem, no one involved can escape.
And these are only superficial measures, the rest of the details are more detailed, so the dishes of Shangshan Bureau only need a simple poison test, unlike the concubines who cook them themselves in the small kitchen stove, which requires multiple poison testing processes.
After eating a few simple bites, they were asked to leave. Just when they were about to start reviewing the memorial, officials from Honglu Temple asked to see them. After entering, they saluted and reported, "Your Highness, Duan Bao, the head of the Duan family in Dali, has sent his credentials. "
The Duan family is now just the general manager of Dali. The real decision-maker is the Mongolian King of Liang. How can his family's letters be called credential? To say so is just to emphasize the orthodoxy of his family in Dali. Honglu Temple obviously deliberately ignored the King of Liang. The presence.
Zhao Huai'an stepped forward and took the gift and handed it to the prince. After Zhu Biao briefly checked the lacquer seal, he casually took the letter opener with a jade handle and gold Qin Yun dragon pattern on the side. This was specially used to open envelopes sealed with lacquer or wax. This is a dagger-shaped scholar's treasure. The tip and blade are not very sharp, so it cannot be used for other purposes.
Of course, it is not impossible to just tear it open, but in this era of extremely inconvenient communication, letters are worth cherishing. Slowly cutting the sealing seal and then taking out the letter to read slowly cannot be considered tedious, but it is more complicated. A sense of ceremony.
With the sound of rustling, the fire seal was opened, and a thicker letter fell out: "I heard that the one who has the world is the master of the world, and the one who has the earth is the king of the earth. Even though I am thousands of miles away, I have treasure. , every direction of the Central Plains.
After Dali had two emperors and three emperors, one side had nine surnames. Since the Han, Jin and Six Dynasties, the Dameng Kingdom was entrusted to the former Tang Dynasty, which ended in the five seasons of the Tang Dynasty. The Erli Kingdom continued to guard the two Song Dynasties.
The ministers and ancestors thought of equality and abided by the restoration of the feudal vassal. Tributes and gifts were repeatedly repaired in the middle land, and the splendor spread far and wide in the corners.
In the old Yuan Dynasty, he did not respect benevolence and righteousness, and specialized in cruelty. Now that Emperor Shun is dead, the king of Liang is still causing trouble to Shanchan.
I have heard that the Lord of the Ming Dynasty was entrusted with the destiny of heaven, and he was at the extreme end of Nanjing. The central plains were peaceful, and the borders were peaceful. I thought that there were saints in China who followed the orthodoxy of Shun and Shun. They were just like the crude Han and Tang Dynasties, and the heaven, time, people, and events were just as they were.
They may order ministers to pay tribute to the Heavenly Dynasty every year according to the old rules of the Han and Tang Dynasties, or they may imitate the official names of the Yuan Dynasty in order to protect the old land.
The common people return to the sun in the deep valley, and the sun shines in the secluded water. All directions are bathed in virtue, and the six directions are in spring. I care about the border and save one party. I want to pay tribute, but I am afraid of violating the Mingwei. I wait for the matter to be decided, and I am waiting for the imperial edict to be issued. I am hereby. "
What falls at the end of the letter is the seal of the Yunnan Jiedu Envoy and the King of Dali given by Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, not the seal of the General Manager of Dali given by the Yuan Dynasty. The meaning here is very clear.
