Chapter 36 The Southern Tour

As soon as Zhu Qizhen said this, Han Yong immediately understood.

Han Yong said: "Your Majesty, although the matter of Jiangnan has the reason for Wang Shu's improper handling, it is also a matter of deep disadvantages in Jiangnan, and it is not a matter of one day. Please also ask Your Majesty to relax, these clowns who jump off the beam will be subdued in the future. ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "I know, but how to deal with the malpractices in Jiangnan, this time it is not so much civil unrest as slave chaos, and they will take my words as wind in their ears." ”

"Even if this generation is doing nonsense, how will the people of the world look at me."

"What I care about is not if the chaos in Jiangnan is calmed down, but how to clean up this mess."

When Zhu Qizhen said to clean up, his tone was particularly heavy.

Han Yong naturally understood that this cleaning would definitely not be too light.

However, although Han Yong moved from Jiangnan to Beijing, his ties with Jiangnan have long been severed, and he now represents the interests of the northern gentry.

Therefore, he has no opinion on how the emperor should deal with the Jiangnan gentry.

Han Yong turned a few circles in his heart and said: "The minister thinks that instead of using the new, it is better to use the old, and instead of using the work, it is better to use it, Wang Shu is not an incompetent person, and now he is careless." Please also ask Your Majesty to give him another chance to continue to run errands in Jiangnan with Qincha? ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "I know Wang Shu's ability, but Jiangnan is not an ordinary place. When his father was in power, Jiangnan was not happy to pay taxes, but it was Zhou Chen's rectification that made it better. ”

"Now the matter is going to be sad for Nasu, what if Wang Shu makes trouble again?"

Han Yong said: "The minister recommended Ma Wensheng to go down to Jiangnan." ”

Zhu Qizhen shook his head and said, "Can Ma Wensheng beat Wang Shu?" ”

Han Yong couldn't say that Ma Wensheng could beat Wang Shu.

In his opinion, both of them have their own advantages, but neither one is completely superior to the other.

Han Yong said: "The minister thought that he could stay in Nanjing to guard Cao Gong as the main one, Wang Shu or Ma Wensheng as the deputy, Cao Gong was in the south and could hold the field, and Wang Shu and Ma Wensheng were both young and strong and could do anything." ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Gong Cao is old, I can't bear to work anymore. Besides, will the Cao Guild do what I want? ”

Cao Nai and Zhu Qizhen's little knot, well-informed people, have long known. Among them is Han Yong.

Han Yong only saw at this moment that Zhu Qizhen already had an idea.

He immediately said: "The old minister is stupid, and I ask Your Majesty for guidance." ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Why are the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River so rampant, it's nothing more than that the dragon has not crossed the Yangtze River for decades, they have all forgotten the great tomorrow's might, and I want them to think about it again." ”

Han Yong was taken aback and said, "Your Majesty wants to tour south?" ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Exactly, what does Mr. think? ”

Han Yong said: "Your Majesty must not, and now the treasury is empty, and there are many events in all directions, and

The Nanjing Palace has not been repaired for many years, and it has long been decayed and uninhabitable. ”

"Now the imperial court really can't afford to pay this money."

Zhu Qizhen said: "It doesn't matter, Wang Shu has already sold Xu Chunshen's family property, and there are about eight million taels, which can be used to repair the Nanjing palace, and it is enough for me to go to the south of the Yangtze River this time." ”

"Even if there are shortcomings. Neku still has money. ”

Han Yong was instinctively dissatisfied with the emperor's departure from the palace, and many ministers wanted the emperor to stay in the palace honestly and have children. But this emotion is not too big.

At least much smaller than in history.

There was a change in the history of the civil fort, so that the ministers have been bitten by snakes for a while, and they have been afraid of well ropes for ten years.

But now there is none.

Han Yong's heart was more dissatisfied with the emperor's troubles.

It's just that he figured it out quickly.

This emperor is not a young lord, but a male lord. Many things can't be hard topped, and they talk about finances first, but this aspect was solved by Zhu Qizhen. A further question was raised.

Han Yong said: "If Your Majesty wants to tour the south, please summon the prince back to Beijing to supervise the country." ”

At this time, Han Yong was not entirely using this matter to prevaricate Zhu Qizhen.

A kingdom shall not be without a king for a day.

Even if the emperor is away, Beijing still has to have someone in charge. According to the practice of the Ming Dynasty, when the emperor goes on patrol, he should be the prince in charge of the country.

If Zhu Qizhen does not recall the crown prince, Beijing will fall into a situation where the dragons are leaderless.

If there was no prince to supervise the country, Zhu Qizhen's southern tour would not have been possible.

Zhu Qizhen said: "Why do you need the prince to supervise the country, is it okay for Mr. to take care of my family?" ”

Zhu Qizhen's attitude of not wanting the prince to return to Beijing has never changed.

Moreover, Zhu Qizhen also had doubts about the necessity of the crown prince's imprisonment.

What is Beijing?

It is Zhu Qizhen who has been running the base camp for I don't know how many years, and Zhu Qizhen doesn't know how many people have been planted in Beijing and how many eyeliners have been left.

Any disturbance in Beijing cannot be hidden from Zhu Qizhen. Even if Zhu Qizhen is thousands of miles away.

And now there is no threat to the outside world.

Mobei, Monan and Northeast are in hand, and the nearest border is in Yili.

And before the news came that Ashi Timur had died. The threat of the tile spur's eastward advance was greatly reduced, and Zhu Qizhen was preparing to summon Wang Yue back.

No matter how peaceful the world is.

But there is nothing that threatens Beijing.

Moreover, the road from Beijing to Nanjing has long been repaired, and this kind of traffic is better than before, I don't know how many times, and it will be in the hands of Zhu Qizhen in just a day or two if there is something to do in Beijing.

Even if Zhu Qizhen is not in Beijing, there is no major incident.

In this way, the need to supervise the state in Beijing is greatly reduced.

Therefore, Zhu Qizhen generously let Han Yong preside over Beijing's government affairs.

Han Yong immediately saluted and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is very good

No, only His Majesty's closest relatives can do it. Your Majesty's words are intended to put your subordinates to death? ”

Zhu Qizhen hurriedly said: "I lost my words. So how about the emperor and grandson? ”

The title of prison is not for everyone, generally speaking, it is either the crown prince, or the queen mother, or the queen mother, and again the royal brother.

There has never been a matter of ministers supervising the country.

If Han Yong has the title of prison on his head, Han Yong will definitely be pointed out by Qianfu.

Han Yong said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that the time to go to Jiangnan will not be short, there must be a person in charge of things in Beijing, although the grandson is talented and intelligent, but he is too young." Please also think twice, Your Majesty. ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "The prince has another important use in Nanyang, and Mr. also knows that the father and son of the monarch and the minister are the most difficult to get along with, and if the prince is outside, then the two are safe, and there is a queen in Beijing, the emperor and grandson, and the position of the prince, there will be no change." ”

"Qing also thinks about me. The matter of recalling the prince will never work. ”

Han Yong said: "The minister knows that His Majesty wants to make the prince conquer in Nanyang, and he can't stay in Beijing for a long time. ”

When Han Yong heard Zhu Qizhen say this, he knew that he couldn't do anything and couldn't stop it. So he had to offer some quid pro quo.

I don't know if it's a fan of the authorities.

Anyway, many ministers have raised concerns about the prince's perennial absence.

I'm worried that if father and son don't see each other all year round, something will happen.

Han Yong's invitation to establish the emperor's grandson is naturally according to the heart of the prince and the heart of hundreds of officials.

And there is also a precedent for the establishment of the grandson, after all, Emperor Xuanzong was the imperial grandson, and the situation at the beginning is somewhat similar to the current situation.

At that time, Emperor Taizong was in Beijing, and Emperor Renzong, as the crown prince, was in Nanjing all the year round, not in front of Taizong, and it was Taisun who followed Taizong.

Zhu Qizhen listened and said, "Yes." ”

In fact, for Zhu Qizhen, there is no difference between the imperial grandson and the imperial grandson. After all, Zhu Youji is the eldest son of the emperor, and he will definitely be the crown prince in the future.

After all, the Ming Dynasty elder system has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is not too easy for Zhu Qizhen to change it.

Now it's just a matter of giving a title in advance.

Han Yong said: "The matter of the southern tour is no longer possible today, at least next year, this is a major event after all, we must prepare well." ”

"Your Majesty wants to give the minister time."

Zhu Qizhen said: "Yes. ”

Han Yong's reason, Zhu Qizhen also accepted, after all, it was very troublesome for the emperor to go on patrol with a frame, and Zhu Qizhen intended to tour south this time, and he also had something to do.

At the very least, if you want to deter Jiangnan, you must show off your might and bring a large number of troops south.

However, Zhu Qizhen was also worried that this was Han Yong's delaying tactic, and there would be no more if he dragged it out. He added: "Ordered the horse Shi Jing to go out of Beijing first, survey the road to the south, and also do it in mind. ”
