In the sound of firecrackers, the spring breeze sends warmth into Tusu. It is the first day of the Lunar New Year again, and this is the fifth year that Xu Jin has come to Daming.

In the lively and festive sound of firecrackers, the people of the Ming Dynasty sent away the Zhengde year name that had been used for 16 years and ushered in the first year of Jiajing.

Spring returns to the earth, Vientiane is renewed, spring represents hope, and new things are always expected. Although the national fortunes of the Ming Dynasty in the past two years were not smooth, there was a rebellion of King Ning in the past, and there were rebellions in several provinces after that, but when the new emperor ascended the throne, he issued an edict, abolished many malpractices since the Zhengde Dynasty, and successively reduced the number of internal officials, Chuanfeng officials (officials directly appointed by the emperor without the imperial examination), Jinyi Wei, etc., totaling nearly 150,000 people, greatly saving financial expenditures.

Of course, what makes the ordinary people of the whole country most happy is that the grain tax in the summer and autumn of the first year of Jiajing will be halved, so the people are full of hope for this year's harvest. In addition, there are rumors that under the initiative of Xinke Tanhualang and Jing Anbo Xu Jin, the imperial court also intends to "clear the Tianzhuang" and return the land to the people, so this is the first year of Jiajing full of hope.

On the first day of the first month of the first year of Jiajing, the imperial court held a grand court meeting, the little emperor Zhu Houxi ascended to the throne in the Fengtian Temple, accepted the worship of civil and military officials, officially announced the change of Jiajing, and then visited the Taimiao to comfort the ancestors of the gods and Buddhas and the old Zhu family. A month later, on February 2nd Dragon Raising Heads (Spring Ploughing Festival), there will be a grander spring festival ceremony, when the new emperor will plough the suburbs of Beijing in person, praying for God's blessing this year's wind and rain, and the peace of the country and the people.

After the court meeting on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the ministers dispersed one after another, the little emperor Zhu Houxi set up a banquet in the Wenhua Hall to entertain the ministers, and there were not many officials who were eligible to enjoy this honor, respectively, there were four elders of the cabinet, six Shangshu, Dali Siqing, the imperial history of the left and right of the Imperial Inspectorate, the bachelor of Hanlin, the general political envoy, etc., and there were several elderly imperial relatives, such as the Zongren Order who was in charge of the Zongren Mansion.

Zhu Houxi originally wanted to call Xu Jin too, but considering that Xu Jin's current identity was really not qualified, if he insisted on calling, it would only attract jealousy, so he dispelled this idea.

After the court meeting was dispersed, Xu Jin was about to leave the palace from Xihua Gate, and met the imperial eunuch Huang Jin, who greeted him with a spring breeze and said, "Lord Xu has a good New Year." ”

Xu Jin smiled and said, "Father-in-law Huang has a good New Year." ”

Huang Jin was only twenty years old this year and was promoted to the eunuch of the internal official supervisor and the seal seal, which can be described as a "young man's ambition", but he didn't dare to take a stand in front of Xu Jin, politely beckoned Xu Jin aside, and said in a low voice: "Lord Xu, our family went to the Zongren Mansion a few days ago to find someone to check the family tree, and there is no one named Zhu Tingyu in the royal family. ”

Xu Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, it was best to be natural, and nodded: "There is Lao Huang's father-in-law." ”

When he was besieged by floods in Shandong, Xu Jin accidentally saw Xue Bingxin's jade pendant engraved with the words "Zhu Tingyu", and he was always suspicious, because the texture and pattern of the jade pendant should be a royal thing. At that time, Xu Jin didn't want to investigate deeply, but later took possession of Xue Bingxin's body by mistake in Jinan, and Xu Jin naturally wanted to find out about the identity of his woman, so he specially asked Huang Jin to help check whether there was such a person in the royal family.

Huang Gonggong smiled and said: "Lord Xu is polite, it's just a gesture, but there is a name in the royal family that is very similar......

Xu Jin's heart moved, and he asked casually, "What's the name?" ”

Huang Jin glanced left and right, and said secretly: "Zhu Ningyao, the king of Anhua, has a son named Zhu Taiyu under his knees. ”

Xu Jin chuckled in his heart, there were two rebellions of vassal kings during the Zhengde period, the first was the rebellion of King Anhua in the fifth year of Zhengde, and the second was the rebellion of King Ning in the fourteenth year of Zhengde.

Compared with Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, Zhu Ningyao, the king of Anhua, is even more ridiculous, the rebellion was pacified in only 19 days, and finally the whole of the palace was punished, and the person responsible for leading the troops to quell the rebellion was Yang Yiqing and the eunuch Zhang Yong, who were responsible for leading the troops to quell the rebellion, and it was precisely because of this incident that Liu Jin, the first eunuch of the Zhengde Dynasty, was executed by Ling Chi, and it is said that more than 2,000 knives were cut.

At this time, Huang Jin said with a slight mockery: "In the fifth year of Zhengde, Zhu Ningxiao, the king of Anhua, instigated the border generals to rebel, but it was pacified in half a month, and the line of the king of Anhua was also exterminated and expelled from then on, and Zhu Taiyu was also among the Zhulian, and it is estimated that the bones are now gone." ”

Xu Jin's palms couldn't help but sweat secretly, Bing Niu'er wouldn't have anything to do with King Anhua, and King Anhua's fiefdom was in Gansu, which happened to border the tile thorn, and Xue Bingxin also had half Hu blood, could it be ...... If that's the case, then you're in big trouble!

Huang Jin observed Xu Jin's face and asked tentatively, "Where did Lord Xu hear the name Zhu Tingyu?" ”

Xu Jin was immediately alert, and said with a calm expression: "I saw it by accident, and I think the name is like a royal family, so I am curious to inquire." ”

Huang Jin sighed when he heard this, and did not continue to ask, for now, Huang Gonggong is still quite grateful to Xu Jin, if Xu Jin hadn't let him go in Shandong at the beginning, and after returning to Beijing, he asked him to transport hundreds of thousands of taels of stolen silver back to the inner treasury, which round of the position of the imperial eunuch got a young eunuch like him. So Huang Jin didn't have any intention of catching Xu Jin's pigtails, not to mention that there was nothing to catch about this kind of thing, so he prevaricated casually.

It is worth mentioning here that Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang gave birth to a total of twenty-six sons, and in order to name his son, Lao Zhu was heartbroken.

Because he was worried that his descendants would have the same name, Lao Zhu wrote a twenty-character limerick poem for each of his twenty-six sons, and made a rule that in the future, when the sons named their descendants, they must typeset the generations in the order of the limerick, that is, Lao Zhu arranged two words in the name of his twenty-first generation Houyi before his death.

The first character is Zhu, the second character is a character from the limerick poem, and the third character must have five elements and rotate in the order of wood, fire, water, metal, and earth.

For example, the limerick poems of the Minwang system are: Huiyin Yingyanyu, Dinggan Qi Yong, Chongli Yuan Visit, Kuan Rong Xi Ben Cong.

Zhu Rongji, the former prime minister of our republic, is the queen of King Min, counting the words in the limerick poem, "Rong" ranks seventeenth, that is to say, Premier Zhu is the seventeenth grandson of King Min, that is, the eighteenth grandson of Zhu Yuanzhang, with soil under the word "base", it can be seen that in the generation of Premier Zhu's father, the third word of the name must have "gold", and the third word of the son's name must have "wood".

So the question is, there are only so many Chinese characters in the five elements, what should I do when I run out? So in order to come up with a name, the old Zhu family made a lot of rare words, such as Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao, the actual way to write "zhao" is actually (fire + zhao), there is no font library for this thing, who can type?

For example, Zhu Tingyu, which should have been (氵 + jade), couldn't be typed, so the author could only use "Yu" instead.

Getting back to the point, Xu Jin said goodbye to Huang Jin, and walked out of the palace from Xihuamen with a heavy heart, alas, this ice girl is really not worry-free. Xu Jin is now a head and two big, if Xue Bingxin is really the queen of King Anhua, the remnants of the white lotus, plus the descendants of the anti-king, ten heads are not enough to be cut, and whoever gets it will be unlucky.

Of course, if Xu Jin is ruthless, he can ignore it, just don't know Xue Bingxin, and I believe that with Xue Bingxin's temperament, he will definitely not be entangled with him. However, Xu Jin really couldn't do that kind of ruthless and unrighteous act, otherwise he wouldn't have deliberately released the water and let Xue Bingxin and his group escape.

Therefore, everyone has weaknesses, Xu Jin's weakness is that he is too emotional, and he is ruthless to the woman he has stamped, and this is the case with his wife in his previous life, who sold all his real estate during his imprisonment and left behind a pair of young children.

And when Xu Jin made a comeback, he found that his ex-wife had remarried someone else, and this man was still an executive in a company he bought.

Xu Jin still can't forget that the man took his ex-wife to grovel in front of him, and his ex-wife looked annoyed and ashamed.

Xu Jin was happy at the time, but in the end, he still didn't have the heart to retaliate, and just silently transferred the company out again, and since he became a stranger in this life, there was no need to have anything to do with it.
