Chapter 784 The Emperor's Shadow

Not surprisingly, Yang Tinghe ran into a wall with Queen Mother Zhang again.

It was also within his expectations. Since last year, Empress Dowager Zhang has tried to avoid contact with foreign ministers, or to prevent Emperor Jiajing from feeling that her queen mother is inclined to outsiders.

From Yang Tinghe's point of view, Queen Mother Zhang's move is tantamount to telling him that the Ai family is very satisfied with the emperor's son, and that his throne is stable, so there is no need to toss about in this court, and everything will be left to the new emperor, and the Ai family will retire. Behind the scenes, so if you have anything to do, don't come to Ai's house, go to the court and talk about it, just treat him as a normal emperor.

Without the assistance of Empress Dowager Zhang, Yang Tinghe lost his biggest backer in the court, which made him feel that his time as chief assistant was numbered.

What the emperor did one after another seems to be competing with him for the gains and losses in the court, rather than grabbing his reputation and exporting it violently. Now Yang Tinghe is no longer as talkative among the scholars as before. There are more and more secret attacks on Yang Tinghe's manipulation of the government.

Zhu Hao's home.

After Sun Jiao knew that the relationship between Zhu Hao and Sun Lan was not very "normal", he went to visit Zhu Hao's residence when he had nothing to do.

In order to avoid being gossiped, he greeted each time in advance, one or two days in advance, or more than half a day in advance, so that Zhu Hao was mentally prepared.

If the old man wants to visit your house, my daughter can't be the only one waiting for me at home, right?The two of you should always greet each other together!
Sun Jiao was also worried about his daughter and son-in-law.

At the beginning, because Sun Jiao refused the marriage request of Prince Xing's Mansion, and made a decision at home that Sun Lan would not marry for life, she felt indebted to Sun Lan in her heart.Although Sun Lan is married now, Sun Jiao still thinks that this is a political marriage, and it is inevitable that she will feel ashamed of her daughter from time to time.

Sun Jiao thought for a while, and even though he didn't want to admit it, he still nodded in agreement.

At that time, the emperor listened to his advice, and directly canceled the increase in the cost of the southeast coastal defense, and asked the Ministry of Households to formulate an allocation plan by itself, and let his grandson make the decisions.

Sun Jiao always felt that the emperor's compromise was paving the way for a bigger conspiracy.

But what does all this have to do with my husband?
Zhu Hao got up and said: "You don't have to stay at home at night, I'll tell your father later, don't come to meet us if you have nothing to do, if he doesn't worry about you, I'll take him to the women's school later to have a look, Let him know that you have a career. Your father still can't let you go in his heart."

Who knows, Lou Suzhen will not go later.

"Ah."

What is Zhu Hao's identity?
The most trusted aides around the emperor have always acted on behalf of the emperor Zhu, and fought with the chief assistant and the six ministers with great joy, and often did not lose the wind, and his style of behavior was elusive. Time has gained a firm foothold in Chaozhong.

Zhu Hao shook his head: "I didn't target anyone. It's His Majesty's decision not to choose a good man. I basically just reminded him of the consequences of doing so. It seems that His Majesty is all on Yang Ge's side. , but in fact, don’t you feel that His Majesty has a thorn in his heart and has lost due trust in this class of Scholars?”

Zhu Hao used Sun Lan's mouth to inform Lou Suzhen that the workshop was about to be relocated. In fact, he wanted to tell Lou Suzhen that a big chaos in the court was about to begin.

Before and after Yang Tinghe became an official, a huge vortex would form in the court, and many people would be involved involuntarily.

Sun Jiao looks old-fashioned, but he is the kind of person who values ​​his family very much.

Pay attention to the family, and he is dying, so he naturally cherishes his children very much.

She could tell that the emperor was about to have some confrontation with Yang Tinghe, and then Yang Tinghe would hand over the power of the government with a high probability.

To put it simply, hand Sun over to ask to get stuck.

The selection of the library was at the emperor's will, so his son-in-law was just an "accomplice" and it was no use saying that his son-in-law had offended scholars all over the world. Sun Jiao, a veteran official who was born as a Jinshi, felt at ease and continued to support his son-in-law's actions.

Zhu Hao is going to let Zhu Si take the initiative to push forward the Great Ritual Discussion, as in the past, to complete the purge of the opposing forces in the DPRK and China.

"Ah."

Zhu Hao really couldn't understand the love view of middle-aged and elderly people. They used to have families, and they were probably the type who could be confidants but couldn't be husband and wife.

Could it be to create an opportunity for the two to get closer?

"Father is gone?"

Speaking of which, Zhu Hao hadn't seen Lou Suzhen for a long time.

Think about it too.

Previously, he may have overestimated what Zhu Hao did, thinking that everything was done by Zhu Hao.

It turned out that only the husband was sitting at the desk reading a book when he came over.

Grandchildren who have children in old age attach great importance to their children.

In this way, it is reasonable for the emperor to cancel the selection examination for the library.

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "In Elder Sun's view, my competitors are just a group of concubines who entered the court a year later than me, right? Then my vision is too low, just such a small pattern?"

Zhu Hao flattened his mouth: "How should I put it? In the middle of this year, there may be some changes in the court situation. To put it simply, His Majesty will soon be fully in charge of the government. There will inevitably be rifts between the monarch and his ministers. I don't want to make me involved because of business matters. To enter it, you can only move the things on your hands that can be moved out, at least so that others can't see them."

Zhu Hao is by Zhu Si's side, just a consultant?
joke!

At the beginning, Lou Suzhen often visited Tang Yin's place, and Zhu Hao originally thought that the two people's affairs should come naturally without any obstacles.

This is the result of the game between the monarch and his ministers. The imperial court is like this. There will inevitably be disputes between the emperor and the powerful ministers, and the final winner is mostly the emperor.

I suggest that the emperor should not choose concubines, do you think I am jealous of the virtuous and capable, targeting a group of juniors?
"So you are still targeting Yang Jiefu?" Sun Jiao asked.

But this is the effect Zhu Hao wanted to achieve, which made Sun Jiao think so.

……

To say that Zhu Hao is the emperor's chief steward is to underestimate Zhu Hao's value. The current Zhu Hao is equivalent to half the emperor, equal to Zhu Si's shadow.

"...The cancellation of the library selection is your idea? If you do this, you really want to offend scholars all over the world. What good will it do you? You can't forget your identity as a scholar when you are in Hanyuan by yourself!"

Sun Lan was very curious, isn't her husband very busy?
Why did you send off your father-in-law and still have time to stay at home and read?

……

Sun Jiao also came to Zhu Hao with a wave of anger this day.

Sun Jiao was "enlightened" by Zhu Hao, and instantly calmed down, feeling that he was worrying too much.

……

Although this session is the first Beijing exam in the true sense after the new emperor ascended the throne, and the selected ones are also the first batch of disciples of the emperor, but because these people were selected when Yang Tinghe and other civil servants controlled the government, and then In addition, during the previous examination, some people thought that the civil service group had tampered with the examination papers in order to select members loyal to Yang Tinghe to enter the court, which naturally caused the emperor to repel him.

Especially the daughter of Sun Lan.

Zhu Haodao: "Look at what Elder Sun said, I'm a member of Han Yuan, so what's the benefit to me if I don't choose a good scholar?"

The husband and wife are too busy to stay at home now, and she doesn't really care much about what the husband does, but she manages the women's school and workshop, and is extremely busy.

Sun Lan prepared for a long time in the inner courtyard, prepared a large table of food, and prepared to take her father to have a family dinner.

Zhu Hao came back from outside, so why not her.

If you are a confidant, you don't need to care about the trivial things in life, but if you want to be a husband and wife, you have to care about daily necessities, and you no longer respect each other as guests, but you have to rush around for life.

Zhu Hao said: "It's gone. I left him for dinner, but he insisted on going back. It seems that your two elder brothers will go home tonight. He also said that I will take you back to see them later."

Sun Lan nodded in relief.

Sun Jiao sneered endlessly: "Let's put it on you, there are many benefits, less potential competitors, isn't it? This is probably the most direct benefit!"

Sun Lan is also a new woman with independent thinking, and now she is studying under Lou Suzhen, who is used to being independent. The two are both mentors and apprentices as well as good sisters. It seems that they have found the meaning of life in Zhu Hao.

Being a family member is more tiring than being a friend.

Zhu Haodao: "Maybe in Sun Lao's opinion, I am too radical in doing things, but in fact, many times, I am just helping the community. What His Majesty wants to do, I am just making suggestions and being a consultant, not me. Take the lead. Elder Sun, don’t take my role too seriously.”

What Zhu Hao said was not enough, it was more like mocking Old Man Sun, so is your vision?

Zhu Hao laughed.

……

I met Zhu Hao once before and told myself that I would take action against the allocation of funds for the southeast coastal defense, but it seemed that Zhu Hao "used" him. Until now, Sun Jiaolian still hasn't figured out how he was used.

But thinking about it now, how could it be possible, Zhu Hao is just an ordinary young man, he is just a child.

It may be that Tang Yin and Lou Suzhen had some conflicts again on some matters, and then... got emotional?

"Speak to my wife for me, and tell her that I may move the workshop out of the capital, leaving only the women's school and the laboratory, and let her prepare. If there are not enough female workers, I will recruit again, and those who are unwilling to move will send a A severance pay." Zhu Hao said.

Sun Lan didn't understand even more.

Zhu Hao's words made Sun Jiao feel very reasonable.

"Uh……"

Old Sun Jiao's face is full of horizontal wrinkles, his horizontal wrinkles are different from others, at the age of [-], Sun Jiao is really old enough to be buried in the ground at any time, among so many people in the court, it is estimated that someone will post Sun Zhitong's obituary tomorrow, No one will be surprised, but will think that you should be the first to die.

"Ha ha……"

Such a person, after the downfall of Yang Tinghe, is estimated to become a scholar of the Imperial Academy soon, and will be able to join the cabinet in a few years, and even the person who is the chief assistant will care about some concubines who entered the Imperial Academy two years later than Zhu Hao Custard?

Sun Lan asked puzzledly, "Why?"

With Yang Tinghe gone, being an emperor means showing imperial power. At this time, ministers will be given a chance to choose whether you are on the side of the emperor or on the side of the old civil servants and bureaucrats...

Once the choice is made, the emperor will take over the opposing forces.

At that time, Zhu Hao will come from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, and what he has done in the private sector will become a hindrance. Obstacles must be removed in advance, and there must be no stains that hinder his progress.

　I wish my friends good luck in the Year of the Rabbit, good luck, good health and prosperity, and all wishes come true!
