The next day, there will be a large court meeting.
The Ministry of Rites took the lead, and the three ministers in the cabinet respectfully invited. The ministers also petitioned, and the emperor wanted to accept the wedding. Finally, with the persuasion of the ministers, the emperor got married.
Each step of accepting the offer, asking for the name, accepting the acknowledgment, accepting the invitation, asking for an appointment, and personally welcoming each step must choose an auspicious day. Counting all this, it will be next year, the first year of Zhengde. On this day, history will finally be On the right track.
Zhu Houzhao was still very curious about this future queen, and history was very secretive about this queen. It was mentioned briefly without too many verbal modifications. Because of this, he was even more curious.
But before the wedding, and until Xia officially entered the palace, he could only go to the harem to see the emperor. As for the emperor, he could only see the emperor after the invitation period. Although he felt itchy, he did not dare to break the rules, especially now that he He is the emperor, not the prince, and it will not be so convenient if he wants to mess around again.
In the eyes of the foreign ministers, this kind of Majesty is the one they expect in their hearts. He has the legacy of the late emperor. Every day when discussing politics, they feel like spring breeze, respect the ministers and themselves. Gradually, they get used to this. kind of pattern.
Hua Yurong has been depressed every day since Zhu Houzhao left last time. She usually receives some famous officials and talents, plays the piano across the screen, or communicates with others. Recently, she has declined all of them, because Zhu Houzhao went to take the examination, and she felt that Thinking about this Mr. Zhu, how could he have any intention of seeing other people? All his thoughts were on Zhu Houzhao.
But Mr. Zhu has already returned to the palace and is getting ready for his wedding. He still doesn't know if he remembers her. Maybe it's just a drama, right?
Seeing that her mind was wandering, the old bustard stayed behind closed doors all day long. After the beautiful music of the piano disappeared, countless wealthy guests returned disappointed. Finally, she persuaded her, "Daughter, don't blame me for talking too much. Mr. Zhu will tell you when you see her." If you are not an ordinary person, why are you doing this?"
Hua Yurong heard this but said: "My daughter knows that Mr. Zhu is not an ordinary person, but what does that matter? I believe that he will definitely pass the imperial examination and be named on the gold list. He will definitely come back to find my daughter." It seems that he is still a girl. Infatuated woman.
From that day on, Zhu Houzhao was willing to stand up for her. He did not look down on her and regarded her as a bet. He made her feel the care that she had not felt for a long time. After so many years, her whole heart fell. When she thought of that The bad boy's eyes shone with unabashed aggression. She blushed and her heart beat. She didn't know why she liked this feeling so much.
Not long after, Zhang Zhong's silent face appeared in Qionglou, and the servant led Zhang Zhong directly to Hua Yurong's room.
"Master Zhu's servant is here." After reporting, the boy retreated.
The old bustard didn't dare to neglect, and stepped forward to greet him, "Is Mr. Zhu coming?"
Zhang Zhong, however, did not look at her, and his tone was commanding, but he could not resist: "From today on, Qionglou is not allowed to ask Miss Yurong to accept guests. If anyone dares to neglect or bully Miss Yurong, there will be consequences."
The Madam was very embarrassed, but she didn't dare to do anything. Thinking that even Jin Yiwei was so frightened and severely warned her about which people she didn't dare to offend, it was conceivable that their identities must not be simple. They even said "Don't dare, I don’t dare, Mr. Zhu likes the little girl, this is her blessing.”
Then, when Zhang Zhong faced Hua Yurong, his attitude became a little cautious and careful. He smiled and said: "Miss Yurong, my young master is busy with the college entrance examination. Please tell me, I will tell you when the exam is over." I came to you to listen to the guqin. This gift was given to me by my young master. I hope Miss Yurong likes it." Zhang Zhong then took out a guqin.
Hua Yurong was stunned by Zhang Zhong's attitude before and after. She was a little timid, but she was very happy in her heart. Master Zhu still remembered him. She didn't pick up the qin, but Zhang Zhong just bowed and held the qin and didn't get up. The old bustard She looked anxiously, fearing that her daughter might make someone unhappy, so she quickly reminded her, "Daughter, you haven't picked up the piano yet."
It wasn't until the madam reminded her that Hua Yurong remembered it and hurriedly took the guqin. She couldn't put it down immediately and was so happy that she thanked Zhu Houzhao repeatedly, her face became even more rosy and beautiful.
Zhang Zhong stood up with a smile and said goodbye. Before leaving, the madam walked to the door. Zhang Zhong stopped and warned again: "You can't inquire about the identity of the young master. Please serve Miss Yurong well. If there is any slip-up or neglect, hey, take care of yourself." "
The old bustard said he didn't dare and became even more careful with Hua Yurong. Who is Mr. Zhu? She became even more curious. Unfortunately, even if she wanted to break her head, she would never have imagined that that would be the day today. However, the more this happened, the more it made her heart-wrenching.
If Zhu Shou was a grandson of the king, how could he take part in the imperial examination? What if he is the son of a minister? How could she not know? Who is this Mr. Zhu? However, we must do what Mr. Zhu told us. The servant is not an ordinary person at first glance. She is also a martial arts practitioner. Naturally, she knows that Zhang Zhong is not simple. With such a master around, she can It's an ordinary person, so it's better not to offend him.
This guqin was discovered by Zhu Houzhao in the palace today. He didn't know where it had been for a long time. He immediately thought of a story about romance with the guqin, so he used the guqin to act as a demon and gave it to Hua Yurong. , I think it will definitely win the heart of the beauty.
Who says an emperor can't pick up girls? Not only did he pick up girls, but he also made love with girls in a poetic and picturesque way, which is so wonderful.
Zhang Zhong came back to reply to the order and briefly talked about Hua Yurong's expression at that time. Zhu Houzhao nodded and sighed: "That piece of shit from Liu Jin is still useful. If he were that guy, he would definitely understand all Yurong's thoughts and expressions." Describe it all.”
Thinking of Liu Jin, I don't know how that bitch handled things. He's really not used to not being around for two days. Let him get back here quickly.
It is impossible for the Leopard Room in the previous life to appear in the hands of Liu Jin, but a palace that is more famous than the previous life, the Royal Manufacturing Bureau, is about to make its grand debut. Listen, what a shameful name it is, it simply puts the royal family in the face. Lost everything.
Liu Jin personally set aside a place in the palace and recruited many lowly craftsmen, including carpenters, blacksmiths, masons, builders, and even Taoist priests who made alchemy. What was going on? It only took two days, where is the good emperor that we agreed on? Did you agree not to mess around?
Since Zhu Houzhao used money from his own funds to carry out the matter, he did not alert the ministers. When the deal was done and construction began in the palace, the cabinet suddenly became noisy.
"Bin Zhi, your majesty used to be just messing around. The late emperor still managed to keep him in check. Now your majesty has returned to his old ways and started to act ridiculously like this. If this continues, our country, the Ming Dynasty, will be in danger. Alas." Xie Qian's stubborn temper broke out again.
Even Li Dongyang, who was so wise in the past, has lost his temper. Your Majesty, this is really hard for him to see through.
Liu Jian is still calm. Seeing that the ministers are very interested in entering the palace to meet the saint, what are the consequences of doing so and forcing the palace? If it were the late emperor, the most he could do would be to rebuke him or even admit his mistake. However, His Majesty is not someone who is easy to mess with. Didn't you see what happened to Prince Ning?
"My lords, Mr. Xie and Mr. Li are calm and not impulsive. Why don't we go to the palace to meet with your majesty and explain the seriousness of the problem. Maybe there is still hope for the matter." Liu Jian had no choice but to say this to calm the minister's mind first. Say it again.
Naturally, the others had no objections. After all, not everyone had the courage to go against His Majesty. There was only one Liu Daxia hiding in the corner, and few people paid attention to him, but they could see clearly and said to themselves: "Go, go. , My present is your future. If you go against His Majesty, you won’t know how you will die by then. You all think that Your Majesty is fooling around. But who of you has thought about how King Ning died and how I, Liu Daxia, compromised? I don’t want to Just messing around with you."
Since that incident, he has been isolated by the officials. Although everyone agreed with his petition that day, no one looked down on him and thought he was unworthy. Therefore, Liu Daxia was not a good person in the Ministry of War. What's better is that even his right and left ministers are dissatisfied with him, and they are willing to obey him. If His Majesty hadn't withdrawn him in the end, there is no doubt that someone would have added insult to injury.
Only Liu Daxia himself knew that the reason why His Majesty did not deal with him was because of his own face, so he kept him. He could not guess the final outcome, but when he thought of that night in prison, he was determined to do it. He must follow His Majesty's footsteps. The only one who can solve all his current troubles is Your Majesty, but he can only fight for it himself.
As for how to get it? Isn't there an opportunity right in front of us? Liu Daxia thought.
Liu Jian stabilized the ministers, and the three elders came to the palace to pay their respects. The three elders of the Hongzhi Dynasty were not easy to deal with. I don't know how Zhu Houzhao was going to deal with it.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Liu Ge, Mr. Li Ge, Mr. Xie Ge, the three elders all requested to see Your Majesty outside the palace, saying that they had something important to report." Liu Jin was actually reluctant to leave. It was so nice to be by Your Majesty's side. You can also look at Zhang Zhong.
Zhu Houzhao was painting in front of the case, but the scale of the painting was weird, and he didn't know what it was. Anyway, Liu Jin couldn't understand and couldn't understand what it was. Zhu Houzhao ordered without raising his head: "Please invite the three masters to come in." Zhu Houzhao called their masters and seemed to know what they were here to do. Liu Jin sent a message to them.
As soon as Liu Jin heard this, he understood how he was going to reply to the three old guys Liu, Li, Xie, and bowed out.
"Mr. Liu Ge, Mr. Li Ge, Mr. Xie Ge, your majesty ordered your servants to respectfully invite the three masters to enter the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart." Liu Jin is indeed a talent. As long as Zhu Houzhao opens his mouth, he will know what your majesty means. Play the emotional card first, you guys But His Majesty's master then came to invite them on behalf of His Majesty. Even if he had a bad temper, there would be nothing he could do in the face of His Majesty who acted unreasonably.
Not to mention, this move was really useful. The resentment of Liu, Li, and Xie Sangong was relieved a lot, and they were even a little embarrassed. How could they be so unreasonable when His Majesty treated them like this?
When they were led by Liu Jin to the Yangxin Hall and saw the diligent His Majesty who was at his desk reviewing memorials, they felt even more embarrassed. They felt that they had misunderstood His Majesty. Such a diligent and diligent Majesty, Would you do such a ridiculous thing? There must be a villain who is deceiving you, so who is the villain?
The three princes glanced at Liu Jin and knew what was going on.
Zhu Houzhao looked tired. He was really tired. He had been busy drawing pictures these two days. What were he drawing? Haha, we will talk about this later.
"Do the three masters have something important to do?" Zhu Houzhao asked with a haggard look on his face and confusion.
