Zhu Biao stepped out of the Jinshen Palace and was about to go back to the East Palace to see Nuanyu and Wang Rui when he saw the King of Chu, Zhu Xi, walking towards him. The young man in royal attire was handsome and majestic, and his movements were full of nobility.
"My brother pays homage to His Royal Highness, Your Highness Qianqiu."
"Okay, did you go to the Ministry of Industry to see it today?"
After seeing the ceremony, Zhu Tie moved close to his eldest brother. The two of them walked towards the East Palace. The palace maids and eunuchs behind them consciously lagged a distance behind.
"I went to the early morning and came back now."
Normally, princes and princes do not go to the morning court, and there is no such thing as going to the six departments of the imperial court for no reason. However, with Zhu Biao's arrangement, except for a few words from the censors and a few admonishment memorials, the other officials were all peaceful. Accepted.
In other words, under the threat of the imperial edict, he did not dare to speak out against the prince who had just recovered from illness. If something happened, the emperor would really be angry with him.
Thinking that the Holy Master will be back soon, it won’t be too late to give advice to the Holy Master. Anyway, the Holy Master is in good health...
"how?"
Zhu Tie said with some helplessness: "The Minister of the Ministry of Industry stayed with me for half a day, and the Vice Minister stayed with me the whole day. However, I also read the general regulations of the Ministry of Industry."
It is unprecedented for the prince to send six ministries, especially under the prince's arrangement. It is not surprising that the Ministry of Industry and Engineering is a little overly nervous and even vaguely resistant.
Now that the prince is here, does the Minister of Industry have the final say? Do we flatter and flatter him, or do we reject him to express our loyalty to the prince?
These problems have only been temporarily suppressed. In the final analysis, the prince and prince have a special status and should not interfere with the affairs of the Sixth Division. Zhu Biao is very clear. It is just because there are really not so useful people now, and the development of new things such as firearms has There is no room for delay.
After Zhu Xi gets familiar with it, the Ministry of Works will be divided and a new yamen will be established to focus on research instead of the Ministry of Works, which has trivial and numerous functions, which will be easy to arrange at that time.
The Six Parts of Zhongshu are different from others. Zhu Biao is more trustworthy than Zhu Bing, but he has to consider the opinions of the officials. It is best to have both sides. Being too arbitrary is not the way to be a king.
Zhu Biao was walking in front with his hands behind his back. Zhu Xi was half a step behind and suddenly asked: "I sent a letter to the Conquering South Army a few days ago, but I haven't received a reply from the fourth brother yet. Big brother, the fourth brother?"
Zhu Xi is a smart person, and Zhu Biao is too lazy to hide it from him. In the end, it is not an important matter, not to mention that he probably knows a lot by now. When a prince goes to the army and has not shown his face for so long, it is inevitable that some people will speculate. Wu Xun They exchange news with each other very quickly.
"The fourth child was sent to Goryeo by me. As you know, he has been yearning to fight on the battlefield since he was a child, and Goryeo really needs someone with the right status to replace me to accept the forces from Naha and check the local forces in Goryeo. ."
Zhu Tie did not deliberately show surprise, but just nodded his head clearly. After receiving the order from the prince to provide disaster relief, the officials of the East Palace were no longer so shy about him and became more open-minded.
"I see, this is indeed the most suitable time for him. Father and son go into battle, brothers fighting tigers."
"By the way, brother, have you approved the petition for meritorious service that I submitted? Why hasn't the official department issued an official document yet? I made a promise when I was providing disaster relief. If it doesn't work, I will be embarrassed. "
Speaking of this matter, Zhu Biao couldn't help but snorted: "You are so generous. You asked for credit from dozens of officials at once, and even promoted seven or eight Zaoli to officials."
Zhu Xi said with a playful smile: "Disaster relief is not easy. The eldest brother is also considerate of the younger brother. He is just a local official, and they all have merit and hard work."
It is difficult for everyone to do things without anyone under his command. Zhu Biao followed the orders issued by civil and military officials. Is it just because he is the prince?
How many princes have there been in the past dynasties? Is it possible that they all have this power?
It's not because many civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty held the position of officials of the East Palace, and many of them were promoted by Zhu Biao. Local government guards and even the frontier army had direct descendants of the East Palace to hold important positions.
In this way, Zhu Biao's prince's edict can truly be like an imperial edict and be followed by the whole world!
Zhu Biao's power originated from Lao Zhu at first, but now it is not that simple. Too many people have been bound to him, and even the emperor cannot tear them apart. The lives of the entire family are tied to the prince. No one can bear the cost of changing the court.
He has gathered too much consensus and gathered too many interests, so he is the real prince and prince and the foundation of the country, instead of being like the original princes who could be deprived of everything with just one will, including the status of the prince. The water splash can't be turned out.
At this point, even if the emperor ordered to deprive Zhu Biao of his identity, it actually didn't matter. Could it be that if Lao Zhu now lets any of his second, third, and fourth sons become princes, do they really become princes?
Do you really dare to stand upright in front of Zhu Biao?
Of course, the prince is still the prince, and Lao Zhu is the founding emperor. If he is really desperate, there is no way to deal with him.
But there is only one way to deal with Zhu Biao, and that is to slaughter everyone in the East Palace neatly and without anyone reacting, killing his children and grandchildren and exterminating the Miao descendants of the East Palace...
"Big brother? Big brother?"
Zhu Biao's thoughts were pulled back and he couldn't help but laugh. Where did he think of all this? He was wondering where he was going. He seemed to be free recently. What kind of person was his father?
Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Xi and said: "If it doesn't happen next time, I will agree to it this time. The official department will issue an official document tomorrow."
Zhu Xi quickly smiled and said: "Thank you, brother. I will definitely do my best."
This is not the promotion of these officials, but the permission for Zhu Xi to accept these officials and form a small team of his own. This is the first among the princes.
If they are not allowed, these officials will go crazy and continue to move closer to Zhu Xi. A person who can't even help them get promotions and promotions in a reasonable manner. If there is any need to cooperate, Zhu Xi's reputation will also face a devastating blow. .
Anyone who doesn't form a team of their own will not be able to accomplish anything. When one person has limited manpower, if the people below do not cooperate and do their best, and they are just perfunctory, you will be able to accomplish nothing.
In fact, down to the local government offices and up to the Sixth Department of Zhongshu, any chief official will cultivate his confidants. This is not surprising. It's just that Zhu Xi's status is a bit special, but to Zhu Biao, it is not worth mentioning.
If you want the horse to run, you have to feed it. If you want the third child to share some things with you, but you are afraid of restricting others, it would be too petty.
Not only the third child, but also Yao Guangxiao, who is far away in Goryeo, is like this. The shackles can be released. His hard work has won Zhu Biao's trust. From an ordinary monk, he has become a man who can form his own team. What a character, Goryeo's meat is very plump.
When the brothers arrived at the East Palace, the princess was not there, so Zhu Xi played with his two little nephews for a while. It was still very rare for the third generation of the Zhu family to have just two little guys like this.
But after all, we didn’t see much, and the child was a little shy of strangers, and the third half-grown boy was not very good at coaxing children, so he quickly retreated in embarrassment amidst the crying of his nephews.
It was Zhu Biao who had to coax him, but the two brothers gave them some respect for me, and soon they started laughing happily again, stretching out their hands to kick their legs, and even performed some stunts like turning over.
Zhu Biao's eyes were full of softness. Children in this month are the most adorable. If you miss them, they will be gone. In the end, they will look like cats and dogs.
After they were taken to drink milk, Zhu Biao got up and went to Wang Rui's bedroom as originally planned. She was obviously pregnant. After seeing the ceremony, he looked at her rounder face and said, "When the sun is nice, Move around a lot to avoid a difficult birth.”
Wang Ruiyifu said: "I know this."
The two of them were very polite. Zhu Biao didn't say much after he sat down. He seemed to be in a daze while holding the tea cup. Wang Rui carefully sat down under the cushioned chair on the other side.
Staring at that figure with almond-shaped eyes, she felt a lot more at ease in her heart, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised. This palace is very nice. Although the prince has no affection for her, he always comes to sit with her every now and then, so as not to let the servants below wait too long. she.
