It's early in the morning on the seventh day of April.
Zhu Qiyu was still lying on the bed, reading Xianshu leisurely.
Shu Liang took the urgent report and came to the western suburbs in person to ask for a meeting.
The little maid handed in the urgent report, but Shu Liang was left outside.
Zhu Qiyu's thoughts were completely different from those of the previous Ming emperor.
In the past, eunuchs not only had the opportunity to admire the beautiful bodies of concubines, but even served them personally. The emperors of the Ming Dynasty did not care at all.
Zhu Qiyu was different. No matter how trusted the eunuch was, he could only see the face and hands of his favorite concubine at most. As for touching, don't even think about it.
It seems that Zhu Qiyu was also puzzled by the brain circuits of the Ming emperors. The method of castration of eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty was different from that in the Qing Dynasty. What else did the eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty have?
With such a group of eunuchs serving their concubines, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty didn't care at all. Oh my god.
Zhu Qiyu got up from bed and came to Qingyun Pavilion.
This is an extremely rare time alone between Zhu Qiyu and Shu Liang. In the past, Shu Liang remained a secretive person, always appearing in front of Zhu Qiyu at the same time as Wang Cheng and others.
Zhu Qiyu had no special impression of this well-behaved little eunuch. The reason why Shu Liang was reused was just because he was one of the few remaining old people from Xidi around Zhu Qiyu.
After Shu Liang saluted, Zhu Qiyu took the lead and asked: "I have read the secret report from Shanxi. You Dongchang and Jinyiwei have done a good job.
In the future, we will continue to strengthen surveillance on Shanxi, especially Xuanfu and Datong. But just collect information, nothing else.
Let Shanxi's civil and military officials fight slowly.
How is the situation in the palace? "
Shu Liang said hurriedly: "Returning to the emperor, all the people in Nangong were rescued in time by Emperor Gongrang. However, Emperor Gongrang was so anxious that he fainted after saving the people.
After diagnosis and treatment by the imperial doctor, it was confirmed that Emperor Gongrang's condition had worsened again, and he would need to rest for at least two to three months before he could get better.
In addition, Xing'an, the manager of Nangong, was given thirty sticks by the emperor Gongjian, and he could no longer get out of bed. "
When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he said angrily: "What do you mean? It's the Chief of Ceremonies who is the penman. He usually lowers his head but doesn't raise his head to see me. Why are you beating him like that?"
Shu Liang replied with an innocent face: "Your Majesty has wronged us. It's really not us who asked him to be beaten like that. It was Xing'an himself who repeatedly asked Jin Yiwei to beat him hard, but Jin Yiwei beat him lightly and he was still unhappy."
When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he covered his face with his hands, feeling really sad for Xing'an.
Shu Liang took out another letter and handed it over: "Your Majesty, this is a personal letter written by the Emperor to you. It was delivered to the Chief of Ceremonies early in the morning, and my servants brought it with me."
Zhu Qiyu took the letter and read it carefully. In the letter, Zhu Qizhen lowered his stature very low and spoke sincerely. He hoped to revoke the decision to kill the palace people with a stick and officially canonize the sixteen concubines as nobles.
After thinking for a moment, Zhu Qiyu smiled at Shu Liang and said, "Go ahead and do your job well. I will reward you later."
Shu Liang was hesitant to speak and hesitated to leave.
Zhu Qiyu asked curiously: "Is there anything else? You are my confidant. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
Shu Liang gritted his teeth and replied: "This time we have released all the palace residents of Nangong. I am afraid that the inner court will lose its respect because of this. Especially the palace residents of Queen Zhou in Kunning Palace. As far as I know, there are many of them. It's the Queen Mother's hidden line.
The slave is worried that someone will take the opportunity to attack the prince.
Originally, Emperor Gongrang, the second prince, and the third prince were seriously ill at the same time, and rumors were already flying inside and outside the palace. If the prince had more problems, public opinion would be even more unfavorable to the prince. "
Zhu Qiyu nodded, Shu Liang's worries were very likely to come true. The eunuchs and maids in the inner court are so shallow. Once they make concessions to Emperor Gongrang, those palace ladies will fall with the wind.
Sometimes the thinking of fools and smart people is very different.
The ignorance and short-sightedness of these fools is beyond the imagination of smart people.
Otherwise, why would there be such an idiom as "too stupid to reach"?
Zhu Qiyu thought for a moment, then smiled at Shu Liang and said: "After two or three years of experience, you have really improved. If I don't live in the city, I can't take you with me on weekdays.
When you have nothing to do in the future, you can go to Mr. Cheng's house more often. I am relieved that Mr. Youcheng has given you some advice, and it will be of great benefit to you. "
Shu Liang was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly knelt down to thank him.
Now that Cheng Jing has returned to the ranks of civil servants, according to the rules, Wang Cheng, Shu Liang and others, as eunuchs in charge of etiquette, cannot interact with Cheng Jing in private.
But with the emperor's charter, it's different.
After sending Shu Liang away happily, Zhu Qiyu went back to sleep.
On the second day, Zhu Qiyu, while lamenting the sufferings of being an emperor, dressed up early and came to Qingyun Pavilion to wait.
Today we are going to meet the top pick, second pick, and top pick of the new school.
This is a happy day.
Most of the civil servants recruited before were disciples of Xuanzong and Zhengtong. The more senior ones are Taizong's disciples.
And now, Zhu Qiyu finally has his own disciple.
Only these disciples are biological children, and the previous Jinshi were all stepmothers.
There are 201 new scholars, each one is very precious to Zhu Qiyu.
Zhu Qiyu has already made preliminary calculations, and he will keep some of these people by his side to serve as Zhongshu Sheren.
Some are assigned to six ministries, some oversee the administration, and some directly serve.
There are also some who serve as public officials and are assigned to the Sixth Section and the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
In addition, there are six departments, five temples and other yamen, and some cadres have to be sent to local areas for training.
Even though two hundred people sounds like a lot, it's not enough if one point is counted and it's gone in the blink of an eye.
It is really not easy to accumulate a team that can completely transfer the imperial lineage.
It is easy to kill the Empress Dowager Sun and Zhu Qizhen, but it is even more difficult to make the world unite.
So instead of being pretentious, there is no point in directly rushing to kill Sun and Zhu Qizhen.
Although Jingtai was in trouble in history, there was nothing wrong with him not being in a hurry to kill Zhu Qizhen.
Zhu Qiyu was in a daze while waiting.
Huang Pu and He Yi led Wang Yue, Yu Zijun and Gao Yao into Prince Qi's Mansion.
Walking to the south garden of the palace, Huang Pu smiled at He Yi and said: "According to the custom, the flower hunter should pick some flowers for everyone to wear. Although there are only a few of us today and it is not so formal, we still picked a few flowers to suit the occasion. Bar.
Xingyi, you take Tanhualang to pick flowers. The three of us will wait outside Qingyun Pavilion first. "
He Yi nodded and took Gao Yao into the garden.
As soon as he entered the garden, Gao Yao felt a little dazzled. There were so many exotic flowers and plants in it, both named and unnamed. It was indeed a royal garden.
He Yi smiled from the side and said, "My great beauty hunter, don't look at it. I didn't really ask you to come here to look for flowers."
"ah?"
Gao Yao was a little confused when he heard this.
He Yi smiled and explained: "Brother, you have to remember Huang Chengji's favor. He asked you to come visit the flowers because he knew that we were friends from the same hometown, so he asked me to take the opportunity to start a small business for you."
So it turned out that Gao Yao finally figured it out and quickly bowed his hands and saluted: "Please give me some advice, my sworn brother."
"Don't take advice seriously. When you meet the emperor at the stage, your majesty will definitely give you a little test and ask about some current affairs of the government. Brother Yu, I would like to ask you to speak less if you can, and don't try to be in the limelight."
