Da Qiao looked gentle and ordered: "Since Prime Minister Zhang is here, he also knows that I will leave Nanjing next. Contact the Governor and mobilize an army to escort us to Xiangzhou."
Zhang Zhao said respectfully: "I obey your order."
Da Qiao nodded slightly, then Zhang Zhao stood up and left.
After Zhang Zhao walked out of the palace, he glanced at the busy palace maids and suddenly thought that the queen had been keeping a low profile in recent years. She had never arranged for relatives of the Qiao family to hold important positions, and she had never fought for them.
Now it seems that the queen is not simple.
It's really awesome.
If you don't fight with your husband, nothing can compete with him.
Not fighting is fighting.
Everything belongs to the prince. The prince has everything, so why should the queen fight?
Zhang Zhao walked out of the harem and thought about Lu Yu again.
He had no objection to the prince's supervision of the country. The emperor is not in Nanjing, and there is no prince in the rear. It is always unsafe. When the prince supervises the country, the place can be stable and the court can feel at ease.
However, the fact that the empress left with all the concubines in the harem meant that the imperial capital of Nanjing did not seem like an imperial capital.
Huashi City, where the emperor is located, looks like an imperial capital.
I have to test the prince.
Let’s see what the prince thinks?
Zhang Zhao was in awe of Lu Xuan and respected Lu Yu, but that didn't mean that he wouldn't take temptations.
Zhang Zhao went directly to the East Palace, and he came to pay homage in person. Lu Yu also gave Zhang Zhao enough face and personally went to the gate of the East Palace to greet him as a sign of respect.
Zhang Zhao noticed Lu Yu's gesture, felt quite happy in his heart, and saluted, "Your Majesty, Zhang Zhao, pays homage to the Crown Prince."
Lu Yu replied with a smile and led Zhang Zhao into the palace. After the guests and hosts took their seats, he took the initiative and said, "Mr. Zhang came to the East Palace today. What do you want?"
Zhang Zhao said: "Reporting to the prince, I have come to see you. On the one hand, the prince has returned to Nanjing, so I should come to see him. On the other hand, I heard that the empress is leaving Nanjing with all the concubines in the harem to live in Tianzhu. "
Lu Yu raised his eyebrows and glanced at Zhang Zhao. His expression was calm and without any impatience. He smiled and said, "That's what happened. This is the arrangement of the emperor. He will notify those who are willing to go to Tianzhu to live in Huashi City."
"Prince, this is inappropriate."
Zhang Zhao made his attitude clear.
Lu Yu said calmly: "Mr. Zhang, what do you think is wrong?"
Zhang Zhao said: "Reporting to the Crown Prince, Nanjing is the imperial capital and the center of the Ming Dynasty. Although your majesty is away on an expedition, he will always come back. Therefore, the queen and others are best to wait in the imperial capital. Once your majesty leaves Nanjing, the queen and others will Even if people leave, will Nanjing still be the imperial capital of the Ming Dynasty?"
Lu Yu smiled and said: "Of course, the father, mother and others only made this arrangement after being separated for a long time. However, the analysis just made by Prime Minister Zhang also makes sense."
Zhang Zhao's eyes lit up and he asked, "Does the prince also think it makes sense?"
"That makes sense!"
Lu Yu replied with a smile.
He leaned forward slightly and said: "It's just that as a son of a human being, I can't watch my father and mother separated for a long time. Therefore, I am powerless to do what Zhang Xiang mentioned. According to my thoughts, Zhang Xiang Write to my father to ask him to return to Nanjing, or to prevent his mother from going to the Western Regions."
brush!
Zhang Zhao's expression suddenly froze.
He was stunned.
I thought he had tested the prince's thoughts. If the prince took the initiative to lead the opposition, things would be different for Da Qiao and others to leave Nanjing. Unexpectedly, Lu Yu completely removed himself and did not interfere at all.
The words "being a son of man" have blocked Zhang Zhao's words.
Zhang Zhao couldn't let Lu Yu take the lead.
Originally, Zhang Zhao wanted to use Lu Yu to get ahead. He was a minister who found it difficult to speak and did not dare to speak. Lu Yu is different. Lu Yu is Lu Xuan's most valued son, so his status is naturally different.
Unexpectedly, it failed.
Zhang Zhao was embarrassed to continue, so he could only follow Lu Yu's words and agreed: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is right, and I agree with you. Alas, since this matter cannot be stopped, it cannot be stopped. Furthermore, Your Majesty, the Queen and others, Husband and wife are one, and it is not appropriate to always separate the two places."
Lu Yu smiled and said: "Xiang Zhang is right."
Zhang Zhao said seriously: "I'm going to see the Governor and talk to him about arranging people to protect the Queen."
Lu Yu said: "Thank you for your hard work, Prime Minister."
"Thank you for your hard work."
After Zhang Zhao bowed, he took his leave and left.
Lu Yu looked at Zhang Zhao's leaving figure, smiled softly, and his eyes became a little more solemn.
Officials in North Korea and China have plans to become officials in North Korea and China.
He also has his own ideas.
Unlike his father, he can act according to his ideas without thinking about anything else. Many times, he has to do things in a roundabout way and cannot directly deny it, but at the same time he has to achieve his goal.
Lu Yu withdrew his gaze and Jia Xu entered.
Jia Xu saluted and said, "Your Highness, I just saw Prime Minister Zhang coming to the East Palace. Is he here to pay homage to His Highness?"
Lu Yu said: "They said they were paying their respects, but actually they wanted me to stop my mother and the others from going to the Western Regions. Then, I refused on the grounds that as a human son, I was not suitable to stop my mother from going to the Western Regions."
Jia Xu praised: "His Royal Highness the Prince has done a good job. You cannot refuse directly. It is best to use clever methods."
Lu Yu said: "Thank you sir."
Jia Xu changed the topic and said seriously: "I came to see His Highness the Crown Prince about the Governor Zhou Yu. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will host a banquet for the Governor to the East Palace tonight to show his respect for the Governor."
Lu Yu said: "Where is Zhang Zhao?"
"Ignore it for now!"
Jia Xu analyzed it calmly and said: "In official circles, one has always to win over others. The prince does not need to beat the civil servants in the court. However, the military must win over."
"In addition, the Grand Governor is the prince's father-in-law. You personally host a banquet to invite the Grand Governor. No one can object due to emotion and reason. If Zhang Zhao understands or is knowledgeable, he will naturally move closer to the Prince."
Lu Yu smiled and said: "Sir's arrangement is very good, I understand."
Jia Xu said in a deep voice: "On the one hand, the prince will start to get involved in government affairs, mainly to familiarize himself with government affairs and state affairs. In addition, he will focus on personnel affairs and communicate more with officials from the DPRK and China."
"First we will hold a banquet to entertain the Governor, and next, we will hold a banquet to invite our own people like Zheng Xuan and Gu Yong."
"Then, meet with Zhang Zhao, Kuai Liang and other court officials, and get in touch with them step by step."
"Personnel arrangements should be made slowly and gradually. When there are vacancies for officials in the court, the prince can place his own people at the bottom. During this period, try to select talents from the Five Classics Hall and recruit them to the East Palace. .”
Jia Xu solemnly said: "Talent always comes first."
Lu Yu looked grateful and said with emotion: "It is really a blessing in life that I have my husband to help me."
Jia Xu said: "The prince's words are serious. If it were anyone else, he would be able to make plans for the prince."
Lu Yu regained his composure after sighing with emotion, and carefully discussed with Jia Xu how to intervene in the situation between North Korea and China. He would not just watch, but intervene.
This is Lu Xuan's arrangement.
It is also Lu Yu's task.
