Chapter 343

From the top of the court hall of the Ming Dynasty, the dynasty opens today!The morning glow was falling on the top of the Forbidden City. The young emperor Zhu Yi was sleeping on the dragon chair. Tang Bohu dressed in a python robe and led the ministers to salute the emperor.

Tang Bohu stood in front of the dragon chair and said to many civil servants: "Today is the first day of the new dynasty. The cabinet has already discussed with me about the strategy of stationing troops. I don't know what the ministers think."

The court was very quiet and there were no voices of disapproval or approval. The news of Tang Bohu's discussion with the cabinet had already reached the ears of other officials. There was no need for Tang Bohu to explain this matter in court. It was not the regent who was in charge That's fine, Tang Bohu said again: "Since there is no objection, then it's decided."

Standing on the court hall, Tang Bohu went on to say: "Today I want to ask you a question, are the laws of Ming Dynasty strict?"

The ministers looked at me in twos and threes, and I looked at you. Tang Bohu continued: "Actually, I think the laws of Ming Dynasty can be said to be strict, and they can't be said to be light if they are not strict."

Listening to Tang Bohu's words, Yang Tinghe was at a loss as to what he wanted to do.

"I want to use labor instead of punishment, what do you think?"

As soon as Tang Bohu said the words, there was an uproar in the hall, and someone immediately stood up and pointed at Tang Bohu and said loudly: "The laws of the Ming Dynasty are determined by the ancestors, so you can change it for whatever reason."

"This Ming Dynasty was laid down by the ancestors of the emperors, and only the emperors of the past dynasties can repair it!" Another person said: "You must know that your Tang Bohu is not Zhu."

"It's simply outrageous!"

……

Facing the yelling and scolding of the ministers, Tang Bohu sighed, "I'm just talking about my own thoughts, and it's up to you whether you agree or not. Is there any need to be so angry?"

"This matter can only be decided by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty." Yang Tinghe said, implying that you are just a regent, so don't treat yourself as an emperor.

There was an idea that Xu Zhenqing wanted to say a long time ago, so she took a step forward and said: "Mr. Cheng is now the regent, but Cheng Guoguo has a firearms factory in his hands. Can you hand it over to the court?"

Tang Bohu's eyelids trembled violently when he heard this.

Civil servants were also frightened by these words. This Xu Zhenqing really dared to say that Tang Bohu made firearms with the permission of Zhu Houzhao, that is to say, Tang Bohu made firearms privately. appalling.

The court was very quiet, they were all waiting for the regent's reaction, and Yang Tinghe was also waiting for Tang Bohu's attitude.

After a long silence, Xu Zhenqing said again: "The firearms factory, can you hand over this to the imperial court?"

Tang Bohu also looked at Xu Zhenqing and said: "The firearms factory has a lot to do with it. I don't feel at ease handing it over to anyone. Only when the new emperor becomes an adult, I will personally hand it over to the new emperor."

Xu Zhenqing went on to say: "All ministers witness together that the Tang family firearms factory will be handed over to the new emperor after the new emperor comes of age."

Blackmail!Xu Zhenqing was threatening, and Tang Bohu could feel it.

"I will do what I say," Tang Bohu replied.

After the court meeting, Tang Bohu hugged Zhu Yi in his arms. Zhu Yifu, who was still babbling, slept peacefully in Tang Bohu's arms. For some reason, Yang Tinghe felt that Zhu Yi and Tang Bohu were like father and son at a glance. It can't be so absurd, Yang Tinghe throws away his delusions.

"Daddy!" Zhu Yi unconsciously shouted to Tang Bohu.

Tang Bohu was so frightened that he took a quick look at the surroundings and let out a sigh of relief. He whispered to Zhu Yi, who was still naive, "Don't call me daddy casually."

"Daddy!" Zhu Yi called out again.

Tang Bohu's head was covered with cold sweat, and he nodded as if appointed, "Okay, you can call!"

Holding the child Tang Bohu came to the queen mother's palace and said: "My minister Tang Bohu pays homage to the queen mother."

The queen mother looked at her son with a smile and said, "These days, your Tang family is very powerful."

"Where, where." Tang Bohu handed the child in his arms to the Empress Dowager and said, "Whether the Duke Regent is a blessing or a disaster, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, let's take a step and see."

The queen mother happily hugged her child and said, "How do you plan to arrange it, Queen Xia?"

"Isn't this the Empress Dowager's business?" Tang Bohu casually picked up a grape that was a tribute from the Western Regions, and ate it without thinking that he was an outsider.

"It's a pity that this woman has been under house arrest for so many years." The queen mother looked at the child dotingly and said, "Tang Bohu, what do you think about letting this woman go."

"Let's let it go." Tang Bohu didn't care.

"Aren't you afraid that this queen will go out and cause trouble for you?" The queen mother continued: "Don't talk about the queen, tell me how Houzhao is doing now."

"With Yue'er." Tang Bohu continued: "Now this kid is living a happy life, no worries, no worries, and can stay with the woman he loves forever."

The Queen Mother nodded.

Tang Bohu went on to say: "But for Houzhao, being an emperor may not be what he wants, maybe freedom is what he wants more."

"Freedom, what a freedom." The queen mother nodded and said: "Then let the queen go out of the palace. I thought of imprisoning her until she was old, but now that Hou Zhao is making such a fuss, I have no reason to torment her, so I let her go." her."

"The Queen Mother is wise." Tang Bohu replied with a smile.

The Queen Mother looked at Tang Bohu eating grapes at ease. Although this man was different and mature, he was still somewhat heroic. At that time, he borrowed a son from Tang Bohu just to save his Zhang family. The Queen Mother had no feelings for this man. She still loved him deeply and passed away. Zhu Youtang.

"King Ning, what are you going to do with it?" The queen mother continued to ask, "At the beginning, Hou Zhao's child was anticlimactic, and he never said how to deal with it when he took down King Ning."

"Let's be demoted to common people." Tang Bohu said.

"No!" The Queen Mother immediately vetoed, "He is also a member of the royal family after all, and he is of the orthodox royal blood. No one but the emperor can degrade him as a commoner."

Tang Bohu smiled and said to Zhu Yi: "Son, do you think it would be good to demote King Ning to a commoner?"

"Yeah!" Zhu Yi couldn't even speak now.

"Ah...that's all." Tang Bohu continued: "Then send this King Ning to the East China Sea to fight. Life and death depend on his destiny."

"Tang Bohu, are you confused!" The Queen Mother said bitterly, "This is an opportunity for King Ning to take control of the army, and he will kill you, but you still want him to go to war and make military exploits to build up his prestige in the army. .”

"Queen Mother." Tang Bohu also looked troubled, "You said that you want to deal with King Ning, but now you say that this will not work and that will not work. What do you want me to do?"

"Then wait until my Yi'er grows up." The queen mother looked at her son very happily, "Prince Ning will stay in prison, and let my Yi'er make his own decision as long as he doesn't die. "
