Jinyi champion

Chapter 418 The First Step to Fame

Under Zhu Hao's arrangement, Zhu Si walked out of the courtyard in the capital.

In order to ensure their safety, Luo An took out all the guards of the Palace of the Imperial Palace who were brought to the capital. There were thirty people in the open, and twenty people in the dark. In addition, Zhu Hao temporarily hired a housekeeper to protect the house. There are seventy or eighty people in the battle, so as long as they don't leave the city and suddenly encounter a large-scale attack in the capital, it is impossible to lose the wind in a short time.

If someone wants to murder Zhu Si, he needs to think carefully about whether the cost of doing so will be too high.

After all, when troubles arise, the capital city is the most benevolent place, causing great chaos, and the spread of the incident will have a very bad impact on Daming's reputation.

Zhu Hao didn't stay by Zhu Si's side all the time, and led Tang Yin to follow and observe secretly, taking a panoramic view of those people who looked at Zhu Si with strange eyes.

……

After the trip was over, Zhu Si returned to the house safely.

The people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei immediately resumed their monitoring work. They had been slacking off for a long time before, and then they remembered that they still had a task to keep an eye on King Xiaoxing. Work enthusiasm is not high.

The infighting hasn't come to an end yet.

At the same time, in the mansion of Chief Assistant Yang Tinghe, Wang Qiong, Minister of the Ministry of War, came to visit specially. He was going to talk about Wang Shouren's situation in Jiangxi, but he unconsciously mentioned the matter of Zhu Si leaving the mansion today.

"...The son of King Xing, the future King Xing, went out today with a lot of followers, and went to the streets and alleys. On the way, he passed rice shops and tailor shops, etc., and they all went in to check, inquire about prices, and purchase for themselves. Food and clothing... I wonder if Mr. Yang Ge has heard of this?"

Wang Qiong was obviously very concerned about the matter of Prince Xing's son entering Beijing to succeed the vassal. This was considered a major event among the local vassal kings. Many vassal lords were staring at it, and wanted to use Zhu Si's matter to see what the court had in mind for a future vassal king. Action, will there be a situation where the imperial court oppresses the youngest son of the royal family.

After all, Zhu Si's entry to Beijing was a bit weird in itself, which made people feel that the court had other purposes.

Yang Tinghe shook his head, expressing that he didn't know anything about it.

Compared to Wang Qiong's enthusiasm, even if Yang Tinghe cared about this kind of thing, he couldn't send people to follow him all the time. This would damage the dignity of his chief minister, and someone would explain Zhu Si's movements to him afterwards. .

For example, Wang Qiong now.

"In my humble opinion, the son of Xing Wang understands the sentiments of the people, and he has to offer the king's teachings, which is the legacy of his father." Wang Qiong spoke highly of Zhu Si, "Among the many princes in the current dynasty, he can be like him in the market. There are very few people who linger in time and know the warmth and coldness of the world. It is really commendable."

Yang Tinghe had originally pushed Wang Qiong out of his small circle, and had always had reservations about Wang Qiong's views and opinions.

Yang Tinghe said: "But I also heard that after he arrived in the capital, he was so addicted to leisure and entertainment that he couldn't even concentrate on his studies. How can he be regarded as the enlightened ruler of a country?"

The "country" mentioned here is not Ming Dynasty, but the "Xingguo" in Anlu.

Wang Qiong smiled wryly, feeling that the topic was a bit abrupt, and then brought up the matter of Wang Shouren again: "Bo'an is in Jiangxi, which has attracted a lot of criticism. Some people proposed that Bo'an secretly communicated with King Ning in order to allow His Majesty to go south to Jiangxi smoothly. The framing remarks, if Mr. Yang Ge speaks out at this time, it may allow him to work for the court with peace of mind.

"Otherwise, Bo'an will definitely have the heart to leave the court. With his ability, he can guard a corner. He can not only protect the land and the people, but also develop the people's livelihood. It is really a good talent to set things right and help the world and the people. In the future, he can be transferred to the Nine Sides , to deter the barbarians... He is not very old, and it would be a pity if he were to go back to the countryside..."

Wang Qiong regards Wang Shouren very highly.

Seeing that Wang Shouren was attacked by some people with ulterior motives, saying that the person who made the greatest contribution to King Ning actually had a secret relationship with King Ning... This kind of framing is simply heinous, and it makes people who can distinguish right from wrong feel ridiculous, but even so, those criticisms Still lingering and annoying.

Yang Tinghe nodded slightly: "Bo'an...he was indeed framed by someone. But if he wants to retreat because of this, it will be useless. How can a mere setback make him depressed? It's just that the treacherous people around His Majesty want to take advantage of this matter , Let His Majesty make a southern tour...you can write to him and persuade him, why come to me?"

Wang Qiong thought to himself, if I can successfully persuade Wang Shouren and restore his confidence in the court, then why should I come here to be disliked?
Do you pretend that I don't know that I have already been nailed to the treacherous and evil ranks by you?
Wang Qiong said: "The most respected person in Bo'an's life is Mr. Yang Ge. He may be able to listen to your words."

In Wang Qiong's mind, Wang Shouren could only change his mind if Yang Tinghe, the head of civil servants, had to back him up.

Now that Wang Shouren has encountered so many criticisms, it is tantamount to being "internet bullied". He has made great achievements, but he is said to be covering up his crimes. He is a normal person and doesn't want to work in the court.

I worked tirelessly for the imperial court, and managed to put an end to the chaos of King Ning. It took my life to fight for it, but it ended up like this now...

Whoever loves to be an official should go. I plan to leave the officialdom and go to study and study with peace of mind.

But Yang Tinghe's attitude was extremely firm: "Bo An still has a lot to sharpen, and De Hua needn't say much. Even if Bo An leaves the court and has his own place to settle down, if there are changes in the court in the future, he will definitely not dishonor his achievements. Calm down The best way for public opinion is to leave it to Sui Yue, if he insists on staying in court, it will be counterproductive."

Although Yang Tinghe also cherishes talents, his opinion is to let Wang Shouren resign first and calm down when he is disheartened. There are traces to be found, it is ridiculous, and after Wang Shouren's mentality changes, he will be transferred back to the court as an official.

Wang Qiong was very anxious.

Although Yang Tinghe's opinion was not unreasonable, Wang Qiong felt that it was mainly because Yang Tinghe hated himself that he turned a blind eye to what happened to Wang Shouren.

"That……"

Wang Qiong was about to say something, but was interrupted by Yang Tinghe's hand: "The most important thing right now is to get His Majesty to return to Beijing as soon as possible. The Ministry of War must prepare an emergency plan for the Northwest. If the Tatars invade, the army and the people must not be harmed...Okay, That's it."

Wang Qiong cursed secretly.

After the emperor went out in the twelfth year of Zhengde, the Northwest has been calm for the past two years. There have been rumors in Mobei that Dayan Khan, the respected "Lord of Zhongxing" on the grassland, has died. Now the tribes are fighting endlessly for power. Well, who cares about making troubles in Daming?

Aren't the grassland people afraid that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is a lunatic, leading an army straight to the golden tent?

Faced with such a stubborn Yang Tinghe, Wang Qiong had no choice but to stand up and salute to leave.

……

……

After going out of the house for a trip, Zhu Si was very happy when he returned home.

Zhu Hao followed the carpenter into the palace. After the two met, Zhu Si held Zhu Hao's hand and talked non-stop.

"...The capital is really fun, there are so many novel and interesting things, it's much better than when we were in Anlu, Zhu Hao, come back and come with me, okay?"

Zhu Si is like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, and seeing everything in the capital feels fresh.

In addition to Anlu's small territory, simple folk customs, and backward economy, another important reason is that Zhu Si was "the master of the house" for the first time.

Compared with the past when I was ordered by my parents to travel, the people around me were assigned to protect me closely, so I played cautiously and restricted everywhere.

Right now he can go wherever he wants, the guards around him can only be at his disposal, and after going out, he can't spend all the money on hand, and he doesn't go back to the house until dark... The main reason why he likes the capital is the feeling of freedom.

Zhu Hao said: "Your Majesty, do you know that after you come back, there are more people watching outside the palace than when you first came to the capital?"

Zhu Si said curiously: "No, when I entered the door, I didn't see Dongchang fanzi and Jin Yiwei... They used to come in often to have a look."

Luo An came over to remind him: "Mr. Zhu is right. There are indeed more secret sentries outside the gate, and there are quite a few of them... This shows that the prince's tour has attracted the attention of the government and the public... I don't know Mr. Zhu, is this good or bad?"

"Of course it's a good thing. Could it be that the purpose of our entry into the capital is to be forgotten? If they don't even care about our existence, then no one cares if someone is plotting against us?" Zhu Hao said.

Luo An suddenly nodded: "That makes sense."

Zhu Si was a little frustrated: "Then Zhu Hao, you don't mean to say that you won't let me go out to play in the future?"

Zhu Hao said: "It's okay to go out, but you must have a sound plan. If you go out every now and then, everyone will think that you are deliberately misleading them, which is not good for you. Although you have four days to rest every ten days, it is very difficult to go out. A day or two is best, and the rest of the time stay in the mansion to listen to operas and find something new, isn't it good?"

"Then... that's fine."

After Zhu Siluo thought about it, he accepted it.

This surprised Luo An.

From Luo An's point of view, the eldest son has a stubborn personality, and most people can't persuade him, but he always obeys Zhu Hao's opinions.

Even if Zhu Hao asked Zhu Fourth Young Master to go out, Zhu Si was upset, but he could still accept it. It could be seen that Zhu Hao thought that Zhu Hao would not harm him, and would protect his interests everywhere... This is a kind of tacit understanding that even Tang Yin can understand. can't do it.

Luo An finally understood why Zhu Si was most concerned about whether Zhu Hao came or not after he arrived in the capital, not about Tang Yin.

"Okay, did you gain a lot today? Tomorrow, I will send another fifty taels of silver... This time I am going to the capital, and I don't bring a lot of silver, so you should save some money... Also, Luo Dianzhan, I will take out another twenty taels of silver and distribute it to the brothers. Today, you have worked hard to protect the son."

Zhu Hao was very polite.

Come up to take out seventy taels of silver.

Luo An hurriedly said: "This...no need."

Zhu Sidao: "Yes, Zhu Hao, that's your money, the palace can't use your money."

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "I have been in business since I was a child, and I have made some money, and the exams don't cost much. Now you are in trouble, can I do nothing?"

Zhu Si smiled and said: "Thank you then, when I have money in the future, I will definitely pay you back."
