Yu Qian and others in Beijing, who were waiting anxiously, felt relieved after knowing that Zhu Qizhen was under control, and began to determine the location of the Emperor's palace.
In fact, several places to live have been decided in advance.
The two assistant ministers Yu Qian and Li Xian were unwilling to spend huge people's resources to build a palace for Zhu Qizhen. They found a palace in the abolished vassal prince's palace, but they did not disclose where it was placed.
Yu Qian presented this to the Empress Dowager Sun. After the Empress Dowager Sun agreed, Zhu Ji escorted him to this place.
Only Yu Qian, Li Xian in the cabinet, Zhu Ji who was escorting him, and the local officials who received Zhu Qi Town knew about the resettlement place, and only the Empress Dowager Sun in the palace knew about it.
Even Xu Youzhen didn't know where the Supreme Emperor was sent.
After running around, Li Xian kicked him out during the final resettlement stage. This made Xu Youzhen very dissatisfied, but even if he was dissatisfied, there was nothing he could do.
It is strictly forbidden to talk about the Emperor's affairs in the court.
There is only one argument: the Supreme Emperor is still touring Mongolia and has not escaped back.
For this reason, Zhu Ji took a leave of absence and went to Mongolia without telling the little emperor. He brought back all the women and children Zhu Qizhen had left there and sent them to the Supreme Emperor. Their titles and titles could only wait. Arrangements will be made only after the Emperor's grand visit or after His Majesty takes charge.
Ye Xian's Wara tribe was over, and the grassland was turbulent at that time. Many forces emerged and conquered everywhere, all wanting to take the position of Grand Master left by Ye Xian. Tuo Tuo Bu Hua was not in a good situation, and he was unwilling to take the position. Ming Dynasty was offended at this juncture, and there was no obstacle to Zhu Ji's arrival.
The farce of searching Shanjian Village and capturing Qi Town for half a month also came to an end in the Ming Dynasty.
It's like it never happened.
After those who participated in the search were dismissed, rumors spread, and some believed the explanations given by senior officials.
The Supreme Emperor didn't come back, so we worked blindly for a while.
Some people think that the Supreme Emperor ran back, but was caught by someone from a certain department. Now he doesn’t know where he is being detained. He may only be in state mourning if he dies.
There are also people who are more conspiracy-minded and feel that the Supreme Emperor has been killed by the people searching below and will definitely not be found.
But no one pity him, perhaps this is the tragedy of the loser.
In the original history, Zhu Qizhen was imprisoned in Nangong for eight years, and no one ever thought there was anything wrong with it. This can also be seen from the side, how disappointed the officials were with Zhu Qizhen, and if Zhu Qiyu's health was not so fast If it collapses, it will be impossible for Zhu Qizhen to come out of Nangong.
Now, because it is not Zhu Qiyu who ascends the throne but Zhu Jianshen, the court cannot do anything about the claustrophobic Nangong. The approach between brothers is still quite different from that between father and son.
The Empress Dowager and other officials suppressed the matter in order to consider the reputation of the young emperor.
Those searching for Zhu Qizhen were also ordered not to discuss the matter.
In the autumn of the fifth year of Chenghua, the emperor returned to Miyun, and it was sealed in dust. It was only after Zhu Jianshen came to take charge that it would be loosened.
In the Qianqing Palace, the cabinet presented a memorial from Zhu Jianshen, saying that the Supreme Emperor had not returned and was still in Mongolia.
Zhu Jianshen felt relieved after seeing this memorial.
He also knew that his father must have been caught.
Can you feel at ease? You can feel at ease in the short term, but the days to come are still long, so you must be prepared.
In this turmoil, the person who benefited the most was not Zhu Jianshen, but Xu Youzhen, who was promoted.
Because Xu Youzhen came into the sight of the Empress Dowager and Zhu Jianshen.
As a minister, being able to leave an impression in the emperor's mind is the first step to success.
It is true to say that Xu Youzhen is a treacherous minister, but a treacherous minister does not mean that he is disloyal or incompetent. There are some things that a treacherous minister can do better than a loyal minister.
For example, Qin Hui, who was next to Zhao Gou, was undoubtedly a traitor, but in the final analysis, he was just Zhao Gou's spokesperson and the scapegoat.
Was it Qin Hui who killed Grandpa Yue? Was it Qin Hui who begged for mercy?
No, it's Zhao Gou.
But for future generations, Qin Hui was the one who scolded him, but few people scolded Zhao Gou.
This also proves Qin Hui's power.
I don’t know if Xu Youzhen can compare with Qin Hui, because what Zhu Jianshen wants to do is difficult, and he will be scolded and resisted if he doesn’t do it well. As an emperor, it is the most brainless to go out and do it personally. He also needs People in front of the stage.
Let the eunuchs in the inner palace do it?
No, it is necessary to train people in front of the stage from the civil service system, firstly to break down the power in the civil service system, and secondly, to elevate the sanctity of imperial power, so that scholars can criticize Xu Youzhen, not the emperor.
Xu Youzhen's current position is the censor of the right capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and she has been awarded the title of Bachelor of the East Pavilion, which allows her to enter the cabinet. It is a typical standard configuration of a troublemaker.
A force will quickly gather around people in this position. After that, as long as Zhu Jianshen takes a little attention away from Yu Qian and puts it on Xu Youzhen, then this force will be enough to compete with the forces of Yu Qian and Li Xian.
Yu Qian is a great loyal minister, loyal to the country, loyal to the country, loyal to the people, and loyal to the emperor.
But the emperor was last in line.
What Zhu Jianshen wanted to do was to change the law, which was a big taboo at this time.
Even if Yu Qian was capable, due to the limitations of his vision of the times, he could not see the benefits of the reform at all. For the sake of peace and prosperity in the Ming Dynasty, he would definitely not agree.
It would be fine if Zhu Jianshen did not take charge of the government when he was still young. However, if Yu Qian does not find an opponent in front of the stage, by the time Zhu Jianshen takes charge of the government, the court will be monolithic. Even if Zhu Jianshen wants to do something, he will be very upset. difficult.
And Yu Qian is a hero, the object of Zhu Jianshen's adoration in his previous life. He cannot do what Emperor Shenzong did to Zhang Juzheng, and abolish all honors after his death, nor can he be like other emperors who killed meritorious ministers in order to quickly take charge of the government.
The best way to avoid all this is to find an opponent for Yu Qian.
Li Xian was a qualified opponent, but he was too smart. If Zhu Jianshen wanted to push Li Xian to fight Yu Qian, even if Li Xian was aware of the emperor's intention, he would definitely not charge forward for the sake of his own reputation.
But Xu Youzhen didn't have so many worries.
He didn't care about his reputation. When he was alive, it was enough to be a high-ranking official, rich in salary, famous, and favored. After he died, he didn't care about the mighty waves.
After making this plan, Zhu Jianshen made up his mind to ask for another person's opinion at the court meeting.
The Hall of Supreme Harmony, the meeting of the great dynasty.
"Yu Taibao, it's been more than a month. Li Chun, the governor of Liaodong, has the regulations to report." Zhu Jianshen, who was sitting on the dragon chair, asked softly while looking at Yu Qian who was sitting down.
"Your Majesty, Li Chun had a charter, but after the ministers discussed it with Duke Cheng, they felt something was wrong and rejected it."
"I have never seen this charter. Today, during the court meeting, I can tell you in detail." Ever since his father's incident, Zhu Jianshen has become more and more like an emperor.
In the Palace of Qianqing, he still respected Qian as his teacher, but in the court meetings and evening court, his majesty was revealed, and his speech became aggressive and brooked no resistance.
This is called the majesty of an emperor.
"Li Chun sent a memorial to launch a war. He asked the imperial court to allocate one hundred thousand troops to cooperate with the Liaodong garrison to expel all the Jurchen tribes that did not join the Ming Dynasty and rush to the grassland, if it is the bitter cold land in the extreme north." Yu Qian said loudly.
"Cheng Guogong, you know the military well, what's wrong with this memorial?" Zhu Jianshen turned his attention to Zhu Shou, the head of the military attache.
Zhu Shou hurried out of the queue.
"Your Majesty, this campaign is different from the Mongolian war. The land of Liaodong is vast and sparsely populated. The Jurchen tribe often wanders around and has no stable place to live. Even if the imperial court has a large army, it will drive out the Jurchen tribe. , it won’t be long before they come back again, and in the long run, it will only be a waste of troops and food, which is of no use.”
Zhu Jianshen nodded. Although Zhu Jianshen was only eight years old this year, when he was in politics, no one dared to look down upon him. In addition, his father had just been imprisoned, depriving His Majesty of the pleasure of serving as his subordinates, and bullying orphans. Because of the suspicion of being a widowed mother, all the officials respected and felt ashamed of Zhu Jianshen.
Do you dare to say that you did not let Zhu Qizhen come back simply for His Majesty's sake? It is estimated that no one has given an accurate and unquestionable answer to this question. ŴŴŴ.BIQUGE.biz
"Governor Li is a scholar. He doesn't know anything about military matters and his vision is different. I don't want to be harsh. Xu Yushi, do you have any good ideas to solve this serious problem of the Jurchen tribe?" Zhu Jianshen looked at Xu Youzhen among the civilian officials.
In the past, the emperor rarely called Xu Youzhen's name. Most of the time, Xu Youzhen would touch his face to show his presence in front of the emperor. This time Zhu Jianshen called Xu Youzhen's name, but he didn't react for a moment.
Besides myself, is there anyone named Xu among the censors?
"Xu Youzhen, your majesty has a question?" Zhang Bao, who was standing aside, immediately shouted loudly.
Only then did Xu Youzhen react and immediately said: "Your Majesty, I don't know much about military affairs, and I have no in-depth understanding of the situation in Liaodong in advance. I can't tell you a detailed charter and strategy."
Zhu Jianshen nodded: "It doesn't matter. You can go to the cabinet to look at the files afterwards, and then write the inscription to me to discuss the matter in detail?"
After hearing what Zhu Jianshen said, Xu Youzhen was a little flattered and said quickly: "Xu Youzhen obeys the order."
The officials in the front row also began to glance at Xu Youzhen inadvertently.
It seems that the performance of Yingwu Palace really left a good impression on Xu Youzhen in the heart of the Empress Dowager. She must have mentioned Xu Youzhen to Her Majesty in the palace.
This is equivalent to the homework assigned by the emperor. If you complete it well, your status in the emperor's mind will be more important.
"There are no rules for this matter, but we, the people of Ming Dynasty, cannot bleed in vain. We should ask Governor Li to act faster. He has no idea about the overall situation, so he arrests the culprit and kills one of my Ming Dynasty people. Then let the Jurchen tribe repay with a hundred people, one If he fails to do so, he will no longer be the governor of Liaodong, and he will be imprisoned." Zhu Jianshen stood up and said coldly.
After the officials heard this, they all knelt down.
"Your Majesty is holy."
But many officials began to be confused. When the Supreme Emperor made trouble, His Majesty wanted to return to the throne alive or dead. But how come it was only a month later that His Majesty entered the role of emperor. He was not in charge of the government, but his words were reasonable and well-founded. Let the censors who like to stir up troubles be unable to refute...
