The Most Powerful Man in the World

The queen standing beside Zhu Houzhao couldn't help showing a bit of distress when she saw this half-awake face, and subconsciously stepped forward to help the little prince who fell on the ground, but at this moment, Zhu Houzhao was facing The queen shook her head slightly.

Seeing this, the queen couldn't help showing a bit of puzzlement. Zhu Houzhao not only stopped the queen from coming forward, but also the servants and palace maids who were serving were stopped by Zhu Houzhao.

I saw Zhu Houzhao said to the queen, "Could it be that the queen forgot some of the exhortations her companion had made?"

The queen was stunned for a moment, and said with a bit of puzzlement: "Mr. Chu Yi's advice?"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

However, the queen murmured and immediately reacted with a look of stunned expression on her face. She looked at the little prince who was lying on the ground, and then looked at Zhu Houzhao. The queen took a deep breath and bowed to Zhu Houzhao, "Your Majesty reminds me. The thing is, it was the concubine who forgot the Taifu's advice for a while."

Between the words, the little prince who was lying on the ground burst into tears, blinking his eyes full of tears, looking at the people around him, as if waiting for someone to come and help him up.

The chubby, cute little prince was indeed pitiful at the moment, although the queen remembered Chu Yi's advice, she couldn't help showing a bit of distress when she looked at her son who was lying on the ground.

The little prince blinked and cried a few times, only to find that the people around him had no intention of stepping forward to help him up. As a result, he lay on the ground and pouted his butt, and even staggered to his feet.

Zhu Houzhao looked at the little prince who stood up staggeringly, and his face couldn't help showing a bit of satisfaction. At this moment, the queen also stepped forward and hugged the little prince, and praised: "The emperor is really good……"

Seeing the little prince who was able to get up on his own, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help sighing while looking at the sunset: "It's been nearly half a year, and I don't know what happened to Da Compan in the land of Dongying now!"

Dongying and the capital are separated by vast oceans. Even though Chu Yi has dispatched manpower several times to return to the current situation of Mingming, it is not uncommon for messengers to die on the ocean.

For at least half a year, Zhu Houzhao only received three letters from Chu Yi, but according to what Chu Yi said in the letter, he sent messengers back to Beijing at least six times. It is conceivable that almost half of them did not arrive at the capital safely. .

Although Chu Yi was said to be far away from the capital, there were a lot of civil and military assistants in the capital, and the Ming Dynasty Hall was calm.

Wen You Jiao Fang, Chen Ding and others, Wu You Wang Shouren, Yang Yiqing and others, it can be said that some of the civil and military officials may have some careful thoughts, but the general situation is in the hands of Zhu Houzhao, but no one dares to jump out to make trouble .

After repeated killings, coupled with the revolt of King Ning implicated a large number of officials, it can be said that the people with two hearts have been emptied by [-] to [-]%, and some of the remaining people dare not show the slightest strangeness, lest they will He was targeted by Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and Xichang.

Once Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and Xichang are targeted, the end will not be much better.

Don't look at Chu Yi not sitting in the capital, but for some people with ulterior motives, Zhu Houzhao is not much worse than Chu Yi.

Not long ago, a servant of the Ministry of Works was found to have corrupted ink and repaired the river with a total of more than [-] taels of silver. After the evidence was conclusive and confirmed, Zhu Houzhao personally issued an imperial decree to seize the servant of the Ministry of Industry and exterminate the family without any hesitation. .

Even if Chu Yi is in charge of the capital, he is afraid of dealing with such officials.

Gradually, Zhu Houzhao gained the power of the Son of Heaven, and even without Chu Yi's help, he was enough to deter civil and military officials.

I don't know when, Gu Dayong walked to Zhu Houzhao's side with a slight bow, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, there is news from Director Chu Yi!"

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "Oh, has the great companion's messenger arrived in the capital?"

In half a year, I received news from Chu Yi three times, almost once every two months. The last time was a month ago. Zhu Houzhao thought that it might be a month or two after he received news about Chu Yi again. He never thought about this messenger. It went so smoothly.

Gu Dayong said slowly: "Reporting to Your Majesty, this time the Chief Executive has sent a fleet back with a gift from the Chief Executive to His Majesty. The fleet is docked at Tianjin Wei and will be able to arrive at the capital almost tomorrow."

Zhu Houzhao smiled slightly and said, "My companion even prepared a gift for me?"

Zhu Houzhao, who was a little curious in his heart, took a deep breath and said to Gu Dayong: "The fleet is docked at Tianjin Wei, so has the messenger arrived at the capital this time?"

Gu Dayong nodded and said: "This time, it's a young general named Yu Dayou. I heard that it is highly valued by the general manager. This time, he has handed over the task of escorting the fleet to the other party. I'm afraid this is the general manager. Deliberately giving that young general a chance to meet Tianyan!"

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but be surprised when he heard the words: "A young general? Is your partner optimistic?"

Hearing Gu Dayong say this, it is obvious that Zhu Houzhao is a little curious about the teenager. After all, it turns out that anyone who can get into Chu Yi's eyes, whether it is Wang Shouren, Xu Tianzuo, Han Kun, etc. His own ability shows how accurate Chu Yi's eyesight is.

Especially listening to Gu Dayong's meaning, the other party is only a junior general. In this case, he is valued by Chu Yi. Zhu Houzhao is almost certain that as long as there are no accidents, the other party is only afraid of being a general. Chu Yi would never let Chu Yi bother to pave the way for him.

Fools all know that being able to be sent back to the capital by a commander who is on an expedition is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As long as you seize the opportunity and leave an impression in the emperor's heart, you will surely rise to prosperity in the future.

After pondering for a while, Zhu Houzhao said to Gu Dayong: "Gu Dayong, if what I expected is not bad, the young general called Yu Dayou is probably outside the palace gate!"

Gu Dayong looked a little surprised that Zhu Houzhao had seen through his thoughts, and said, "Old slave knows that this little girl's thoughts cannot be concealed from Your Majesty."

Speaking of Gu Dayong, he said: "This young general brought a letter from the general manager to His Majesty, so the servants asked him to wait outside the palace gate. If His Majesty summons him, the servants will send someone to pass him to come. If not, So I sent someone to get the letter from the general manager and sent the young general away."

Zhu Houzhao said with a chuckle: "Since the big companion has praised this young general, of course I can't lose the big companion's face, right, pass my will and call the young general Yu Dayou to come to see me!"

Outside the palace gate, Yu Dayou, who was dressed in military uniform, was very busy.

Returning from Dongying and crossing the ocean, it can be said that he has experienced dangers along the way. Thanks to the treasure ship he was riding on, it was strong enough to withstand the wind and waves at sea and arrived at the capital smoothly.

When Chu Yi selected candidates to escort the various gold and silver jewelry seized in the past half a year back to the capital, Yu Dayou really never thought that he would be selected by Chu Yi.

Although he knew that Chu Yi valued and appreciated him very much, Yu Dayou did not expect that Chu Yi would give him such a good opportunity to meet the emperor.

Even now, Yu Dayou clearly remembers the envy and jealousy in the eyes of those generals looking at him when Chu Yi named him.

Looking at the palace gate, Yu Dayou thought it was a lie to say that he had no expectations. He was only sixteen or seventeen years old. In this era, he was already old enough to start a family and start a business.

But Yu Dayou really had no mental preparation for meeting the emperor. He never thought that he would be able to meet the emperor one day.

With his mind flying, Yu Dayou was a little distracted when he stood in front of the palace gate. When Yu Dayou heard footsteps and came back to his senses, he saw a servant walking towards him with a smile on his face.

I saw that the servant smiled slightly towards Yu Dayou and said, "General Yu, your Majesty has summoned him, and please come with your servants!"

Yu Dayou suddenly felt a little nervous in his heart, took a deep breath, followed behind the waiter, and slowly walked into the Forbidden City.

The maid had obviously been instructed, and probably knew that Yu Dayou was someone Chu Yi valued, so he smiled at each other along the way, and introduced to the nervous Yu Dayou some issues that need to be paid attention to when meeting the emperor.

These are all related to Zhu Houzhao's preferences. If it wasn't for Chu Yi's reasons, how could these emperor's valet take a young general like Yu Dayou to heart.

When Zhu Houzhao summoned Yu Dayou, it was naturally impossible to meet him in the imperial garden, so under the guidance of the inner servant, Yu Dayou was kept in the side hall of the imperial study.

Soon after the emperor summoned him, Yu Dayou entered the imperial study with his inner servant.

Bowing his head, Yu Dayou followed the instructions of the inner servant, entered the imperial study in a straight-forward manner, and then respectfully saluted the emperor.

Yu Dayou kept his head down and knelt on the ground the whole time. He didn't see Zhu Houzhao sitting there at all, but only saw Zhu Houzhao's half body.

Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting there, put down the scroll in his hand, and his eyes fell on Yu Dayou.

Just looking at it, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but nodded secretly.

I had to say that although Yu Dayou was young, he was born quite heroic, and the spirit of heroism came to his face, especially his uniform, which set off Yu Dayou very well.

I just heard Zhu Houzhao chuckle: "It's no wonder that the great companion of Chu values ​​you so much, you don't need to be polite, just get up and answer!"

He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Yu Dayou had worshipped the emperor, and then got up, the corner of his eyes swept over Zhu Houzhao, and only then did he see Zhu Houzhao's appearance clearly.

Zhu Houzhao seemed to notice Yu Dayou's small movements, smiled slightly, looked at Yu Dayou and said, "General Yu, would you like to tell me what happened after your companion led the army into Dongying?"

Although it was said that Chu Yi sent messengers back to Beijing several times, and Zhu Houzhao had some understanding of what happened above Dongying, but the news in the letter was obviously dead. Zhu Houzhao really wanted to hear how Yu Dayou, who returned from Dongying, told the story. what happened in Dongying.

Yu Dayou nodded slightly and said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, the last commander will talk about how my Daming navy rescued a few of my Daming merchant ships that were pursued by Japanese pirates a few days before landing in Dongying."

Zhu Houzhao himself was a martial artist, and when he heard that there were Japanese pirates chasing the Daming merchant ship, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help his eyes light up, but Zhu Houzhao just sat there quietly and listened, and did not open his mouth to interrupt Yu Dayou's story at this time.

Listening to Yu Dayou's coherent and clear description of how the army saved the Daming merchant ships, how to land on the Iwami Silver Mountain, and how to pacify several countries in the East in just one month.

According to what Yu Dayou said, when Yu Dayou left Dongying and returned to Daming, Daming's tens of thousands of troops took the initiative to attack, destroying several small countries such as Anyi and Izumo, and harvesting a lot of seizures.

Although it was said that almost a month ago, Zhu Houzhao knew from the letter from the messenger that Chu Yi led the army to destroy several countries in Dongying.

Sitting there, Zhu Houzhao listened with relish, especially since the protagonist of the story is a soldier of the Ming Dynasty. If Zhu Houzhao was not concerned about his own identity, he would have applauded.

After drinking a sip of tea, Yu Dayou finally said to Zhu Houzhao: "At the end of the commander's order, I will escort the treasures of several countries that have been confiscated, and come to present it to Your Majesty."

Zhu Houzhao smiled slightly and said, "My partner has a heart, but I don't know if the partner sent you back this time. Besides escorting the captured booty, is there anything else you want to tell me?"

Yu Dayou took out a letter from his cuff and said, "This is the letter that the chief supervisor told the general to be sure to hand over to His Majesty, and please His Majesty to take a look at it."

Gu Dayong stepped forward and took the letter from Yu Dayou, and then presented it to Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao opened the letter and glanced at the letter.

early morning

This time, it was not an ordinary morning court, but a grand court meeting. Almost all of the civil and military officials were present. In the huge golden hall, there was a dark area, and all the people were full of court Chinese martial arts.

Zhu Houzhao sat on the dragon chair, his eyes full of majesty swept over the crowd below, and Gu Da, who was standing at the head of Zhu Houzhao, said sharply: "If there is something to play, I will retreat!"

Gu Da's voice fell, and saw a supervisory imperial history take a step forward and said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, the minister impeached the minister of the Ministry of War, and took advantage of the opportunity of the new army to replace the weapons, and the money for embezzling money reached tens of thousands of taels."

Wang Min, who was standing among the civil and military officials, suddenly changed his expression when he heard the words. Obviously, he did not expect that he would be stabbed by the imperial censor to the emperor.

Zhu Houzhao heard that there were people who were greedy for the opportunity for the new army to replace weapons, especially the amount of money reached tens of thousands of taels, and Zhu Houzhao's expression became extremely ugly.

Among the hundreds of officials, as the Minister of War, Wang Min only felt a moment of turmoil, and at the same time, an angry shout came from the dragon chair: "Bold Wang Min, you are guilty!"

Although Wang Min said that his face was pale, he still gritted his teeth and insisted in the face of the emperor's questioning and anger, but he did not dare to admit it.

If he admits this, then there is really no room for manoeuvre. Just seeing the emperor's anger, Wang Min can imagine that once he admits it, then the colleague of the Ministry of Industry who was raided and exterminated not long ago. In the end, it's just his fate.

"Your Majesty, this minister has been wronged, and this minister has been wronged!"

Instead of admitting it, Wang Min cried out that he was wronged.

Taking a deep breath, Zhu Houzhao took a deep look at Wang Min, his eyes fixed on Gu Dayong and said: "I will pass on my will and call people from Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and Xichang to come, but I want to see if Wang Min is in love with Qing. Really wronged."

Hearing what Zhu Houzhao said, Wang Min couldn't help but sighed in his heart. Whether it is Dongchang, Jinyiwei or Xichang, these agencies are all intelligence and violence agencies of Daming. If they are targeted, they will be investigated. Upside down.

With a thud, Wang Min knew that once the people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei came, there would be no difficulty in investigating his problem, and the fact that he was greedy for ink would definitely be found out.

"Woo, Your Majesty, spare your life, Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, the minister is guilty..."

Chapter four hundred and sixty-eight of the angry emperor

Just now, Wang Min looked like he was wronged and loyal, but now Wang Min was kneeling on the ground, crying bitterly, and looking extremely regretful.

The entire hall was silent, but Wang Min's wailing echoed, while the civil and military ministers closed their eyes and rested.

Wang Min couldn't help but said to a few of his usual friends in the crowd: "Master Meng, Master Zhu, you plead for His Majesty for me..."

It's a pity that it's too late for everyone to distance themselves from Wang Min at this time. Who would choose to intercede for Wang Min at this time?

Wang Min pleaded bitterly, but in the end, it attracted the disgusting eyes of everyone, especially the faces of Lord Meng and Lord Zhu who were called by Wang Min's names, and their faces immediately became extremely ugly.

A corrupt official who has been established, if this is related, who knows if the emperor will think that he is with the other party.

If it wasn't above this hall, I'm afraid that Master Meng and Master Zhu would have rushed up and blocked Wang Min's mouth.

Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked indifferently at Wang Min who was kneeling there, and said coldly: "Wang Min, as a servant, you can be described as a high-ranking authority, don't you know that military law is like a mountain, and official law is like a mountain. Rulu, you are so daring, you even dare to move military funds, I ask you, what else is there that you dare not do!"

"Your Majesty forgives your sins, Your Majesty forgives your sins, I know I'm wrong, I really know I'm wrong..."

"Come here, I will put Wang Min into the Heavenly Prison, and the Ministry of Punishment, Dongchang, and Jinyiwei will jointly handle Wang Min's corruption case.

Being able to embezzle money in the military is definitely not as simple as Wang Min, and Zhu Houzhao is not a fool. He knows very well that there is probably a network of embezzlement behind Wang Min.
