A good minister? What about Yang Tinghe? Zhao Changge immediately guessed who Zhu Houzhao was referring to, and he was quite interested in this person.
"In addition to Yang Tinghe, please also call Jiang Bin." Zhao Changge reminded.
"Jiang Bin? The Imperial Master is also interested in him? Why? Jiang Bin is greedy for money, lustful, and observant. I see that he is a good sword, so I keep him by my side. However, such a person should not be able to fall into the Imperial Master's eyes. "
Who said that Zhu Houzhao's political skills were poor? In fact, after careful analysis, many people said that Zhu Houzhao was an incompetent and foolish king because he doted on people like Liu Jin and Jiang Bin. But what if Zhu Houzhao was using them as knives? Why do you choose people like Liu Jin Jiangbin? It’s because of their desire for power and their greed. People with weaknesses can rest assured when they use it, because with the handle in hand, no matter how high they stand Zhu Houzhao It's easy to destroy them.
If Zhu Houzhao chooses those who can keep themselves clean, once too much power is given to them, and they have no major shortcomings, then Zhu Houzhao will not even have an excuse to take back power. It is not worth the loss, so it is not that Zhu Houzhao is mediocre, but It is the traitorous officials who are easier to control.
"Jiang Bin is a good knife, but this knife has its own thoughts. You want to use it to deal with the civil servant group, but with the precedent of Liu Jin, he will also be afraid that he will end up like Liu Jin, so this knife needs to be Sharpen it and let him know that he has no escape route and that he can only rely on you, so that you can use this knife more smoothly in the future."
Zhu Houzhao nodded as if he understood, glanced at Zhang Yong who was still stunned, and kicked Zhang Yong very displeased.
"What are you still doing standing around stupidly? Didn't you hear what the Imperial Master said? Go quickly and announce that Yang Tinghe and Jiang Bin are here."
After Zhang Yong was kicked, he immediately apologized and nodded: "Yes, yes, I will go right now~"
Jiang Bin was born as a military attache and once fought with the army against the Tatars. Nowadays, civilian officials are in power, and it is difficult for military attachés like Jiang Bin to gain a foothold in the court. But Jiang Bin, who refused to admit defeat, took advantage of the opportunity to find a chance to contact Zhu Houzhao, and then used his ability to observe people's words and bring some rare treasures from time to time to honor Zhu Houzhao. Zhu Houzhao liked him, and even became Zhu Houzhao's adopted son, giving him the surname Zhu. .
This kind of favor made him unparalleled in the court. Zhu Houzhao's original intention of using him was to make him go against the civil servant group. Although Jiang Bin did not make the civil servants suffer less, but with the example of Liu Jin in front of him, Jiang Bin secretly Bin secretly made friends with many civil servants to prevent him from being liquidated in the future.
He knew that everything he had was given by Zhu Houzhao, but he was an egoist, and he was not a fool to let him work for Zhu Houzhao easily.
When Zhu Houzhao disappeared suddenly, Jiang Bin felt a huge crisis, because his biggest backer had fallen. Over the years, Jiang Bin had used his power to engage in corruption and bribery, and cultivated party members. But once Zhu Houzhao died, Jiang Bin couldn't think of anything with his butt. He knew that the civil servants he had offended would not let him go.
During this period of time, Jiang Bin kept his tail between his legs. Fortunately, the court was too focused on the disappearance of Zhu Houzhao, so no one came to deal with him specifically, which allowed him to escape the disaster for a short time.
However, Jiang Bin also knew in his heart that although he had saved his life for the time being, he would definitely be liquidated when the situation in the court stabilized.
Jiang Bin, who was so panic-stricken, suddenly heard that Zhu Houzhao was back. Jiang Bin immediately felt emboldened. He originally wanted to flatter Zhu Houzhao immediately and coax him, but he didn't expect that he would arrive there. By that time, Zhu Houzhao had already returned to the Leopard Room.
He was no stranger to the Leopard Room. He used to come and go here freely. After all, he was Zhu Houzhao's adopted son. But today he was stopped outside the Leopard Room.
"Do you know who I am? I am His Majesty's adopted son, and you dare to stop me. Don't you want to live anymore?" Jiang Bin, who was stopped, angrily cursed at the door of the Leopard Room. Since Jiang Bin hugged Zhu Houzhao My thighs have never been so wronged since.
The guards guarding the door were also very embarrassed. They also knew that Jiang Bin was deeply trusted by His Majesty.
"Ping Lupo, please don't embarrass us. Your Majesty gave the order before. Without him, no one can enter the Leopard Room today. Your Majesty and the Imperial Advisor are discussing important matters inside."
Jiang Bin's eyes narrowed slightly. This national master who appeared out of nowhere made him a little uneasy.
You must know that Zhu Houzhao only has so many favors. If the sudden appearance of the Imperial Master takes over Zhu Houzhao's trust, then his favored minister will get less.
"National Preceptor? Who is this Imperial Preceptor? What does he look like?" Jiang Bin immediately asked in a low voice with the mentality of knowing oneself and the enemy and being victorious in every battle.
"The Imperial Master looks very young and has a different temperament, but his hair is very short and his clothes are different from us..."
Jiang Bin took a deep breath. He knew that Zhu Houzhao had just come back. If he couldn't see Zhu Houzhao, he wouldn't be able to refresh his sense of existence, and he couldn't let Zhu Houzhao feel his respect for him. So after thinking about it, Jiang Bin just kept silent. stood aside.
"Please send a message, saying that I, Jiang Bin, am worried about Your Majesty. I will be waiting at this door today. Whenever His Majesty is free, he will call me in." After saying that, Jiang Bin walked aside and leaned against the doorpost. Know what you are thinking.
After a while, Zhang Yong hurriedly ran out of the leopard room. As soon as Jiang Bin saw Zhang Yong, he immediately stopped Zhang Yong.
"Eunuch Zhang, where are you going in such a hurry?" Jiang Bin walked over with a smile on his face.
A flash of displeasure flashed in Zhang Yong's eyes. Just as Jiang Bin thought, Zhu Houzhao only has so much favor. If someone gets a little more, others will get a little less, and Zhang Yong and Jiang Bin are mutually exclusive. There is a competitive relationship, and the two are at odds with each other.
"It turns out to be Ping Lupo. What a coincidence. Your Majesty is planning to see you." Zhang Yong smiled and said immediately.
Jiang Bin felt a little proud. I, Jiang Bin, am indeed the person His Majesty trusts most. You see, he couldn't wait to see me just after he came back.
Thinking of this, Jiang Bin raised his eyebrows at Zhang Yong proudly. Zhang Yong cursed secretly in his heart, but still said with a smile on his face: "Ping Lupp, please go see His Majesty as soon as possible. Our family still needs I’m going to deliver His Majesty’s oral instructions.”
After saying that, Zhang Yong rolled his eyes and left without waiting for Jiang Bin to ask.
"Hmph, you're such a stupid thing, and you still dare to be arrogant in front of me. Sooner or later, I'm going to kill you." Jiang Bin spat on the ground, and then walked into the leopard room swaggeringly.
On the other side, many civil and military officials kneeling in front of the Ming Dynasty Gate could no longer bear it, but they knew that Zhu Houzhao was deliberately punishing them, and no one dared to get up without Zhu Houzhao's order.
Zhu Houcong, who was kneeling at the front, had a thousand curse words in his heart at this time. It was the cabinet that brought him to the capital, but he didn't expect that the emperor would not take the throne, but instead he would be resented by the current emperor. Now Zhu Houcong's heart felt towards Yang Tinghe. Quite hateful.
