Zhu Qiyu nodded with satisfaction: "North Korea is so far away, so this errand is not easy. Li Jin has worked hard and made great achievements, so let him officially serve as the chief historian of the palace."
Qianxue was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then confirmed: "Husband, are you talking about the history of the palace?"
The royal palace's chief historian is a fifth-rank official, and it stands to reason that he must at least be a candidate for the post. That's why Qianxue would ask this question.
Zhu Qiyu replied: "Our palace does not have a standard official structure for the prince's palace, so just come as you like. The long history of our palace is just a title and has no rank.
You ask Li Jin to work hard. In a year or two, I will carry out personnel reforms. At that time, I will also solve the official rank problem of these people in our palace. "
According to Zhu Qiyu's historical experience, there is actually no problem in directly giving Li Jin a full-fledged fifth-level official history. In Chenghua, a large number of people were granted the title of minister, and those people were not promoted to Jinshi. The courtiers still held their noses and recognized them.
The adult emperors in the middle and early Ming Dynasty were simply invincible, but Zhu Qiyu did not want to abuse his power.
Zhu Qiyu then ordered: "Place these 1,500 servants in the Summer Palace and Winter Palace outside the palace, and observe and train them for a period of time. Only a very small number of people who have been strictly selected are qualified to enter Prince Qi's palace as servants.
As for our Yuquan Mountain Lingyu Palace, no one is allowed to enter or leave. It is safer for us to be self-sufficient. "
Qianxue nodded and asked with a smile: "I heard that there are many good-looking ones among them. Husband, would you like to pick a batch and keep them for future use?"
Zhu Qiyu waved his hand firmly: "You don't need to test me, I still want to live well and live a long life. Where did Duke Ding go after the mission came out of North Korea?"
Qianxue smiled and said: "Ding Guo Gong went all the way to the north to see how Fan Guang, the Marquis of Shenwu, rebuilt Nu'ergandusi."
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Okay, let him travel around more while he is young and gain some experience. Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles, and he will be a pillar of the country in the future."
…
The next half month was uneventful.
After Zhu Qiyu reviewed the papers with his cabinet ministers, he made a choice. On the fifth day of March, the examination results were released smoothly, and the palace examination was scheduled to be held on March 15th.
Two flowers bloom, one on each side.
On March 14, Zhu Qizhen, escorted by 100,000 troops led by Wang Ji and Chen Mao, successfully arrived outside Datong City.
Chen Xun, a bachelor of Wuyingdian, a young master, and the minister of the Ministry of Hubu; Hu Miao, the prince's grand master, the minister of the Ministry of Rites of Nanjing; Yu Qian, Shaobao, the minister of the Ministry of War of Nanjing; Liu Zhongfu, the minister of the Ministry of Hubu and the governor of Shanxi.
The British Duke Zhang Zhong, the Marquis of Chengshan Wang Tong, and the Marquis of Gongshun Wu Jin.
Guo Deng, the chief military officer of Datong; Luo Hengxin, the left deputy censor and governor of Datong.
Jin Yiwei Liu Jing, Menda, Lu Gao, Lu Zhong; Supervisors of Liturgy Jin Ying and Xing'an.
This group of people lined up with civil and military officials outside the city gate to greet him, and respectfully asked the Supreme Emperor to change his chariot and enter the city with the emperor's guard of honor.
Zhu Qizhen got off the carriage first to accept the worship of everyone, and then everyone came forward one by one to meet the Supreme Emperor. It was inevitable that the monarch and his ministers would express their feelings again.
Chen Xun and Hu Hui were already important ministers of the court in the Zhengtong Dynasty, so Zhu Qizhen didn't have any feelings when he met these two people. But looking back, it becomes more and more awkward.
After Yu Qian went to Beijing to report on his duties, Zhu Qiyu did not let him return to Nanjing immediately, but ordered him to come with him to greet him.
After Zhu Qizhen and Yu Qian met, both parties were embarrassed. Yu Qian served as the governor of Shanxi for 19 years as the right minister of the Ministry of War, and was not transferred back to the capital until the 13th year of Zhengtong. As a result, the Tumubao Revolution occurred in the 14th year of Orthodoxy.
He first set up ambushes three times in Shanxi, all of which were successful. There are tens of thousands of living people and horses in the area, and Shanxi's government military guards can't detect them even once. Shanxi was governed in such a horrible way that Zhu Qizhen simply hated Yu Qian until his teeth hurt.
At this time, Luo Hengxin, who succeeded Yu Qian and was the governor of Datong Xuanfu, was also present. But Zhu Qizhen didn't hate Luo Hengxin that much. After all, it took less than a year from Luo Hengxin's appointment as governor to the Tumubao incident. What could be changed in such a short period of time?
Behind him was Liu Zhongfu, and Zhu Qizhen was also embarrassed. Because Liu Zhongfu was imprisoned and sentenced to death by Zhu Qizhen, and was finally demoted to the people. After the Tumubao Incident, Liu Zhongfu was suddenly promoted by Zhu Qiyu to the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of Revenue and governor of Shanxi.
This time it was not that Zhu Qizhen hated Liu Zhongfu, but the other way around, Liu Zhongfu hated Zhu Qizhen.
The relationship between Zhu Qizhen and the British Duke Zhang Fu had always been bad. The Tumu Fort incident also killed Zhang Fu in the rebellion. At this time, I was even more embarrassed to see the successor British Duke Zhang Zhong.
Looking further back, when he saw Chengshan Hou Wangtong, Zhu Qizhen's mentality collapsed. Wang Tong was deceived by Xuanzong and Sanyang. He was blamed for losing Jiaozhi, dismissed from his title, and confiscated his family property. Later, he was forcibly rehabilitated by Zhu Qiyu and his title was restored.
Zhu Qizhen also discovered that more than half of the important ministers in front of him were dug out of mountains by his good brother and had nothing to do with him.
Only when he saw Jin Ying and Xing'an did Zhu Qizhen finally show a smile on his face.
After the master and slave met each other and expressed deep feelings, Zhu Qizhen entered Datong City surrounded by officials.
Zhu Qizhen did not dare to live in the Datong General Military Mansion because the entire original lineage of Wuding Marquis Guo Ying had defected to the emperor. Today's Datong Commander-in-Chief Guo Deng is no exception.
Therefore, Zhu Qizhen chose to live in Datong Mansion Yamen, and Wang Ji, Chen Mao, Liang Yue, and Fang Ying took turns to lead his own soldiers to protect him.
In the afternoon, the emperor and his ministers could not wait to discuss the etiquette procedures for returning to the capital and entering the city.
Most of these have already been discussed, and now we just need to confirm them again.
But when it came to the edict of sinners, Yue Zheng took out the edict of sinners written by Zhu Qizhen himself and circulated it to everyone present. If everyone had no objections, the decision was officially made.
At the same time, Yue Zheng also emphasized to everyone that a copy of it had been sent to the emperor.
Then everyone will understand what it means: the emperor has seen it and has no objection. Let everyone circulate it now, just to go through the process. If anyone really wants to propose modifications, he is openly fighting against the emperor.
Chen Xun read it once, then fell silent. Hu Hui read it for the second time and couldn't help but frown, wondering why the Supreme Emperor would write such a self-incriminating edict with his own hands.
In fact, Zhu Qizhen was also coaxed and frightened. Before crossing the Yellow River, he half-heartedly copied an edict prepared by Yue Zheng.
During his two years in Wala, he had been frightened every day. During this period of confusion and shock, Zhu Qizhen was really afraid that he would fall into the water when crossing the Yellow River, or that the boat would simply sink.
Under normal circumstances, Zhu Qizhen would not have been so helpless, but Wang Ji and Chen Mao, whom he trusted most, both had a positive attitude towards Yue Zheng's behavior.
In the end, everyone came together to put pressure on Zhu Qizhen, so in the end, Zhu Qizhen muddleheadedly wrote the guilty edict in his own hand.
After Yue Zheng properly put away the guilty edict, the matter was completely settled.
It is absolutely impossible to regret it.
Hu Hui looked at Zhu Qizhen and saw that although Zhu Qizhen looked reluctant, he didn't say a word or expressed any objection, so he knew it was over.
This guilty edict clearly announced that Zhu Qi Zhenchan abdicated the emperor in favor of Zhu Qiyu, and retired to the emperor respectfully.
According to the practice of past dynasties, after abdicating the throne, the new emperor will inherit the imperial line.
