I'm only seven years old, Lao Zhu, you let me supervise the country?

Chapter 117 Conspiracy, undercurrent!
Jinling City.

It's not going to be peaceful tonight.

His Highness Taisun has made it clear that the matter of setting up an advisory office will be decided at the court meeting tomorrow.

For a time, various forces in the court were undercurrent.

Civil officials, generals, nobles, and even the emperor's relatives are all thinking about the huge changes that this matter will bring.

Some brave people are even discussing in secret.

Yellow House.

inner hall.

Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai, and several senior officials of the court were all impressively listed.

"Tomorrow we have to decide on the establishment of the Counselor's Office and decide who can become the Counselor. But I don't know why, but I feel very uneasy."

Qitai's expression was slightly nervous.

Since he came out of Wenhua Palace today, his right eyelid has been twitching non-stop, which made him quite uneasy.

"What can be wrong?"

A civil servant below said with a smile: "Your Majesty is old and frail, and His Royal Highness is young. No matter how smart you are, you can't handle so many things like an adult. It is only wise to set up a consultation office to assist in handling government affairs." The choice. He made this suggestion because he had to do it.”

The others nodded slightly when they heard this.

His Royal Highness Taisun obviously couldn't deal with the mountain of memorials, so he came up with this idea.

Huang Zicheng touched his beard and said with a smile: "This is exactly the reason. The method we originally planned to drown him with memorials still took effect. This is how the Advisory Office was established."

He was quite proud of his idea, and he didn't forget to mention it.

Although Zhu Yunxi had tricked her before.

But isn't this a quick win?

Qitai sighed: "I hope so. But I always feel that things are not that simple."

"Although His Royal Highness Taisun is young, his mental and strategic skills are beyond the reach of others."

"He must have thought of the issue of taking power away after the establishment of the Advisory Office. Besides, His Majesty is watching."

He was still worried.

"Hahaha!"

Another official said: "I think Sir Qi is thinking too much. Sir Qi only knows one thing but not the other."

Qi Tai was stunned and said, "What else do you know? Tell me about it?"

Everyone in the field looked over.

The official said with a smile: "There is a servant in my mansion, a relative of his family, who works in the East Palace, so he knows a lot about it."

"His Highness Grandson is naturally intelligent, and his talent is unparalleled in the world, but my lords, do you remember Fang Zhongyong?"

"Since ancient times, the great Confucians may not have been particularly smart when they were young. Only by working hard and accumulating over time can one achieve something."

"The head hangs from the beam, and the awl pierces the buttocks. Only by working hard can you become a talent."

"But His Royal Highness, although talented and intelligent, is no worse than an adult, and in many places, it is a little bit better."

"It's a pity that a child has a playful nature and is extremely lazy. He rarely reads in his spare time in the East Palace."

"Whenever I have free time, I just want to play with the court ladies and eunuchs."

"To be able to achieve today's achievements is all due to talent."

"I can write articles and come up with ideas, and I can rely on talent and cleverness. But in handling government affairs, I can only rely on hard work."

"My lords accompanied him to review the memorials in the Wenhua Palace these days, and I must have seen them all. Can His Highness be considered diligent?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone present immediately agreed.

This is so true.

Zhu Yunxi was in the Wenhua Palace, either eating or sleeping, or simply going out for a stroll.

All day long, I probably don't even have half an hour to actually read the memorial.

Moreover, sitting or not sitting, standing or standing.

As long as Lao Zhu is not by his side, he is extremely presumptuous.

There is no sign of studiousness at all.

On the contrary, they are very similar to those dandy boys who are ignorant and incompetent.

At least, it seems so on the surface.

Even more so than many dandy boys.

Those people also know that they should sit properly in the temple.

But His Royal Highness.

The first day is to eat and sleep freely.

The feudal ethics of this era are extremely strict, and Zhu Yunxi's actions, in their eyes, are undoubtedly not learning well.

If it were his own child, he would have already raised his palms and scratched his big ears.

But the other party is the emperor's grandson and the prisoner. No matter how uncomfortable he is, he can only endure it.

Hearing his mention at this moment, I immediately felt that it made a lot of sense.

"I think that I am extremely intelligent and proud of my talents, but I am extremely lazy and unwilling to do things down-to-earth. I secretly think that this judgment is very accurate."

Huang Zicheng nodded slightly in agreement.

If Zhu Yunxi had been his student, he would have taught him a lesson long ago.

No matter how talented and capable you are, you must first abide by the rules, and every action must conform to the "ritual" system. How can you do anything willful?

"He came up with the idea of ​​setting up an advisory office just to make himself lazy."

"Correct!"

"Correct!"

"We take this opportunity to take control of the court."

"Is His Majesty still there?"

"Those who plan for the whole world seek a place, and those who plan for the whole world seek a moment. I should wait here and prepare for the future."

"Yes, Your Majesty's body is getting worse day by day. The only way to prepare for a rainy day is to take precautions."

Qi Tai was still feeling uneasy, and said: "I always feel that things are not that simple. It is true that His Highness is lazy, but it is also true that he is smart."

"I can think of it, but he may not be able to think of it."

"I always feel that this matter is a bit like a pit."

"Don't play tricks on us again like the last time you established a reserve."

Everyone was immediately speechless.

One by one fell into deep thought.

I have dealt with Zhu Yunxi a lot, and I have also learned how powerful he is, so I have to make them be careful.

"The most important thing is the candidates for the Advisory Office."

Huang Zicheng said: "This matter is His Majesty's discretion, it is difficult for us to intervene."

"There are also those group of military officers and nobles. It will be difficult for them to be in charge of the Council. I am afraid they will strongly oppose this matter."

It is undoubtedly necessary to have a high level of education to enter the Advisory and Political Office to review memorials.

Otherwise, just reading those memorials would make people dizzy.

Most of the generals are old and rough, and generally do not have a high level of culture, so it is difficult to enter.

"Although His Majesty determines the candidate, if we recommend it together, His Majesty will not consider it carefully."

"Tomorrow in the court, you all must hold tightly together and advance and retreat together."

"Yes, as long as I don't get confused and work together to set up the counseling office, I can control it in my hands."

"We still need to come up with a charter. How should we deal with it tomorrow?"

A group of officials discussed heatedly.

An official said: "In my opinion, although there are officials in the imperial court, there are actually not many people who are qualified to enter the counseling office in terms of seniority, status, and identity."

"If we don't use our people, he will have no one to use."

Another official shook his head and said: "His Royal Highness Taisun has always acted unruly."

"For example, to set up a military school to train new troops. I heard that no experienced general was transferred from the army to preside over it. Instead, an eunuch named Zheng He was used. He didn't buy armor, bows and arrows for the soldiers, and only trained what Musket, isn’t this nonsense?”

"There is also the compilation of the Hongwu Canon. Instead of presiding over a prestigious and well-known Confucianism, a monk was used instead. This is simply a ridiculous joke."

"As for setting up a technical research and manufacturing bureau, it is even more ridiculous to appoint a group of craftsmen as officials."

"I'm afraid that the same will happen to the candidates for the Counselor Office."

As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly changed their expressions slightly and fell silent.

"You can't let him do whatever he wants."

Huang Zicheng said: "The things you mentioned were all made by us to give in, so we let him."

"But the Councilor's Office is extraordinary, far from being comparable to a military academy."

"Tomorrow, if the method of setting up the Advisory Office and the relevant candidates are announced, it will be unexpected. We must advance together and retreat together to prevent this from happening."

"Yes, as long as everyone is united, it will definitely work."

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

"We vow to advance and retreat together to the death!"

"This matter still needs to be discussed in detail and a strategy decided. Then you can contact various people in the DPRK and China."

Their voices gradually became lower and lower.
