Zhu Houzhao, the lonely Ming Dynasty, angrily snatched Yan Shenggong at the beginning!

Chapter 12 The ideal dynasty in the minds of civil servants!

"Husband, you should eat something first. Although government affairs are important, your body is even more important!"

In Shangshu's room, Empress Zhang, who had inquired about Luo Xiang, brought the prepared lunch to Zhu Youtang's office.

Zhu Youtang, like Lao Zhu, is a well-known workaholic. Not only does he have morning morning, but even afternoon morning.

Every day is busy from morning to dark, never resting, never stopping.

Seeing her husband's body gradually losing weight after busy day and night, Empress Zhang felt distressed and worried.

I am worried that if my husband continues to work like this, his body will be exhausted.

Emperor Taizu stipulated that women in the harem should not be involved in politics, and with Concubine Wan Gui's affairs ahead, she dared not help even if she wanted to, so she could only do her best to do her own affairs well and let her husband worry less.

Fortunately, his son is very obedient, he studies his homework carefully every day, and occasionally chats with him in his spare time, which makes Queen Zhang feel less worried.

The fact that her son is obedient and trouble-free makes Empress Zhang very relieved, and since the child is older, she doesn't need to stare at him every day, so she puts her whole heart on her husband.

Hongzhi Emperor Zhu Youtang is known as the most devoted emperor in history.

He only married Empress Zhang in his life, and all the other concubines were confiscated. This is impossible in ordinary families, let alone in the royal family, but Zhu Youtang did it.

As for the fact that she is really not beautiful, or there are other reasons, it is unknown.

Having experienced the suffering of Concubine Wan Gui in power together, the husband and wife have a very deep relationship. They sleep together and get up together every day, listening to the piano, discussing scriptures, and playing chess.

In order to make her husband eat better, Empress Zhang cooks every meal in person to supplement her husband with sufficient physical strength and nutrition, so that he can better handle the government affairs of the court.

"Okay, I'll eat after finishing what I have in hand."

Hearing his wife's persuasion, Zhu Youtang raised his head and looked at his wife with a gentle smile, then lowered his head and continued to process the memorial in his hand.

Seeing this, Empress Zhang didn't say anything more. As a woman, doing things silently is the best support for her husband.

Seeing that her husband was busy, Queen Zhang came to the dining table next to her with a food box, and placed two side dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, and a bowl of rice porridge on the table.

Then he sat on the side, holding his chin in his hands and looking at his busy husband, showing a silly smile like a young girl's Huaichun.

After finishing his work, Zhu Youtang stood up and stretched himself. Seeing his wife staring blankly at him, he smiled slightly, stepped forward, and waved his hand in front of his eyes.

"What are you looking at? So obsessed!"

Empress Zhang was brought back to her senses, and when she heard her husband's behavior, she gave Zhu Youtang a reproachful look, "Of course it's because of our valiant emperor His Majesty."

"Hahaha, you!"

Zhu Youtang was amused by his wife's words, and pamperingly scratched his wife's upturned nose as they did when they first got married.

Although the two have been married for many years, Zhu Youtang's intimate behavior still made Empress Zhang blush slightly.

"Hurry up and eat, the food is cold!"

She got up and picked up a towel and handed it to her husband. Empress Zhang hurriedly urged her to eat because she was afraid that her husband would be hungry.

"Good good!"

Zhu Youtang responded repeatedly, wiped his hands and sat down at the table, and began to enjoy the lunch specially prepared by his wife.

The dishes are very simple, just a plate of steamed bacon and fried vegetables.

It's hard to imagine that Zhu Youtang, the majestic emperor of a country, has such a simple meal, which shows how frugal he is.

"Today, Zhao'er's personal eunuch came back. The concubine summoned him into the palace and questioned him. It seems that something happened to the Kong family. He came back with Mr. Yang."

While holding vegetables for her husband, Queen Zhang, like a folk wife, told her husband what happened today.

"Oh, what happened?"

As soon as he heard that something had happened to the Confucius family in Qufu, Zhu Youtang stopped eating and asked his wife.

Empress Zhang shook her head, "This is a political matter, I can't ask about it, but I heard from him that Mr. Yang will go to the cabinet as soon as he returns to Beijing. It is estimated that Mr. Xu and the others will come soon."

Zhu Youtang frowned, thinking about what happened to the Kong family.

"Oh, don't think about it, hurry up and eat, and when they come later, you won't be able to eat anymore."

Seeing her husband stopped eating, Queen Zhang worried that her husband would be busy soon and would not have time to eat, so she urged her to eat quickly.

"it is good!"

Zhu Youtang nodded without thinking too much, and quickly ate with his head down.

If something really happened to the Kong family, Xu Pu and the others would definitely come over. What his wife said was right, when they came later, he would have no time to eat.

Sure enough, some people don't talk about it.

Zhu Youtang had just eaten a bowl of porridge when his personal eunuch came in and reported to Xu Pu, the chief assistant of the cabinet, and Liu Jian and Li Dongyang, several academicians, to see him.

"No more servings, I'm full!"

Zhu Youtang deserved to be a workaholic, and after hearing what his wife said just now, he learned that several bachelors had arrived, and waved at Queen Zhang who served him a meal.

He casually picked up the wet towel next to him, wiped his mouth, picked up the teacup and rinsed his mouth, and said to the personal eunuch, "Xuan they come in!"

Empress Zhang opened her mouth, intending to persuade her husband to eat more, but she noticed her husband's slightly frowned brows, sighed helplessly, cleaned up the mess on the table, picked up the food box and walked out.

"Meet the empress!"

The two parties met at the gate of the main hall, and Xu Pu and several academicians hurriedly paid homage to meet them.

"Several gentlemen, you have worked hard to assist the emperor!"

Empress Zhang smiled and nodded in greeting.

"This is a matter within the rank and file of the minister, so I dare not speak bitterly!"

Several people bowed their hands again.

"I won't bother the gentlemen discussing matters with the emperor. I have already read the homework that someone sent back. I hope that the gentlemen will take some time to review it later."

"I'm waiting for orders!"

When Xu Pu's bachelors heard that Zhu Houzhao was traveling far away, they still did not forget to have their homework sent back for their gentlemen to review, their brows were full of joy.

The Hongzhi Dynasty can be said to be the most harmonious court in history.

The emperor is diligent and benevolent, and treats civil officials well.The prince is obedient, sensible and intelligent, the queen is okay except for the fact that the emperor has no concubine, and the royal family does not have the bullshit of the prince earning the throne, which makes everyone feel at ease.

In the current Ming Dynasty, apart from poor finances and frequent harassment by Mongolian Japanese pirates at the border, the Hongzhi Dynasty can be said to be the most perfect state of the dynasty in the eyes of all civil servants.

"Did something happen to the Kong family?"

After a brief greeting with the queen, several college students walked into the hall with smiles on their faces.

The reason why they smiled was not that they had a solution to the Kong family, but that the prince was really in line with their wishes.

This child is really sensible, and he still doesn't forget to send homework back from a long distance. Which child can do this.

Don't talk about other people, just talk about your own children, I'm afraid they would have gone crazy without adults watching. As for homework, what kind of stuff is that, it must have been thrown to Java.

"Jie Fu, please tell His Majesty the specific situation. I didn't understand it just now, so I will listen to what's going on."

After they were seated at the ceremony, they were not surprised to see that Zhu Youtang asked about the Kong family as soon as he opened his mouth.

Leaving aside the intelligence forces in the hands of the emperor, the empress empress came just now. The eunuch Luo Xiang who came back with Yang Tinghe was called away by the empress empress when Yang Tinghe entered the cabinet.

The empress is worried about His Royal Highness, and she will definitely ask about the Kong family during the inquiry.

So the emperor knew they were not surprised.

Xu Pu, who sat at the top, stretched out his hand to Yang Tinghe after Zhu Youtang's inquiry, and asked him to explain it in detail.

When he returned to the cabinet just now, Yang Ting and the others directly expressed their doubts about the prince. He still doesn't know what happened to the Kong family.

"Yes!"

Yang Tinghe quickly got up and bowed to Zhu Youtang, and then slowly told what happened to the Kong family.

"Wait a moment!"

When Yang Tinghe mentioned that before the Kong family was robbed, the prince took his boy scouts out for a trip, Zhu Youtang immediately stretched out his hand to stop.

Yang Tinghe could think of suspicious things, how could Zhu Youtang, who had lived in the palace fight since he was a child, not think of it.

He frowned and looked at Yang Tinghe, "You said that when the Kong family was robbed, the prince took people out."

Yang Tinghe instantly broke out in cold sweat on his forehead.

I just said it smoothly, and forgot what Xu Pu explained.

Facing Xu Pu's slightly squinted eyes, Yang Tinghe stammered a little: "Emperor... Your Majesty, you... don't think too much, His Royal Highness just heard that there is a Confucius Temple around the camp that is very spiritual, so I went to worship it!"

"haha, really!"

Zhu Youtang chuckled suddenly, "This is the first time I've heard that there is a Confucius temple that is more alive than the Confucius family's."

Yang Tinghe didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Xu Pu glared at Yang Tinghe, and said to Zhu Youtang:

"Your Majesty, there is a good saying, sincerity leads to success, as long as you have it in your heart, it will be the same everywhere."

"I think His Royal Highness went to worship the Confucius Temple late at night. Apart from what Jiefu said he wanted the saint to bless the emperor with your health, the country and the people are safe, he probably wanted to vent his anger on the Confucius family."

"As for what the Kong family did during the day, not to mention His Royal Highness, Lian Chen, an old man, feels uncomfortable after hearing about it."

"That's right, for the Kong family to treat His Highness the Crown Prince like this, the Emperor should decree to reprimand him deeply."

Xie Qian also nodded in agreement, and suggested that the emperor issue an order to reprimand the Kong family.

"Hehe, is that so, let's hope so!"

Hearing what the two academicians said, Zhu Youtang chuckled, and watched the two say something meaningful.
