As soon as Xu Jin finished speaking, his stomach grumbled and protested very cooperatively, not the ordinary "poignant". Yongfu and Yongchun couldn't help but laugh, and the palace maid next to them couldn't help but snicker.

Zhu Houxi's kid slapped his forehead and said, "I forgot about this, Yongfu, do you have anything to eat here?" Xu Jin hasn't eaten dinner yet. ”

Princess Yongchun immediately rushed and said, "Yes, yes, I haven't finished eating the plum blossom cake I made today." After speaking, he personally ran to pick up a food box and said with a smile: "Xu Jin, you have a mouthful, this is made by Sister Yongfu herself." ”

Princess Yongfu's pretty face was slightly red, and she couldn't stop talking, but at this time, Yongchun had already opened the food box like a treasure.

Xu Jin fixed his eyes and saw a plate of delicate pastries in the food box, pink and plum-shaped, which was actually good-looking, but this amount was only enough to stuff his teeth.

"His Royal Highness Yongfu's good craftsmanship!" Xu Jin was also hungry at this time, so he picked up a piece of plum blossom cake and threw it into his mouth with a casual polite sentence, but he didn't notice a shallow tooth mark on this plum blossom cake.

"Lord Xu......!" It was too late for Yongfu to stop him, and Xu Jin was like a hungry hippopotamus, swallowing the plum blossom cake with a few movements of his mouth.

"Yongfu, what's wrong?" Zhu Houxi asked strangely, and Xu Jin also looked at Princess Yongfu with Xia Fei's cheeks with a puzzled expression.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing, it's just that the pastry is already cold, and Lord Xu had better eat it hot before eating, so as not to spoil his stomach. Yongfu said that his face was even redder, as if it was burning, it turned out that the osmanthus cake that Xu Jin ate in her stomach just now was what she had bitten before, and she was about to eat it, but suddenly heard that the palace people came to report that the Empress Dowager Zhang was ill, so she hurriedly put it down and ran to Shou'an Palace.

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay, you don't need to heat it, it's more chewy when it's frozen." Xu Jin is so hungry that his eyes are full of gold stars, it would be good to have something to eat, but he still cared about the hot and cold, so he picked up a piece of plum blossom cake and ate it.

Princess Yongfu blushed, and looked away a little cowardly, Zhu Houxi said strangely: "Yongfu, what's wrong with you?" Is it uncomfortable to have such a red face? After saying that, he reached out and touched the former's forehead.

"Oh, it's the stove that's too hot." Princess Yongfu ate authentically, and when she saw Xu Jin looking at her curiously, she hurriedly said, "Lord Xu eats slowly, Yongchun, it's late, let's go to the back." ”

After Princess Yongfu finished speaking, she took her sister Yongchun to the back of Cining Palace, watching the girl's beautiful shadow disappear behind the door, Xu Jin couldn't help but be a little stunned, Princess Yongfu's wedding date is scheduled for August this year, and she will soon marry a wife.

Zhu Houxi's kid glanced at Xu Jin, who had red lips and white teeth, and sighed in his heart, it's bad, Yongfu won't secretly like Xu Qing, right...... No, the wedding date of Yongfu has been set...... Phew, even if it's undecided, I can't let Yongfu see Xu Qing's little white face in the future.

In fact, it's no wonder that Zhu Houxi thinks in this regard, Yongfu's performance just now is too strange, plus Xu Jin is so good, both talent and appearance are pleasing to girls, a woman like Yongfu who has lived in the deep palace for a long time has few men, and it is not surprising that when she meets an excellent and handsome talent like Xu Jin, it is not surprising that she has a good feeling.

"Why does the emperor look at his ministers like this?" Xu Jin couldn't help but feel a little furious when he saw Zhu Houxi's kid staring at him with strange eyes, but his movements were not slow, and he ate the last plum blossom cake on the plate.

Zhu Houxi smiled and said, "Xu Qing, is the plum blossom cake made by Yongfu delicious?" ”

"It's okay, it's just a little more sugar."

"Xu Qing, Yongfu's wedding date is set for August, or you will be the main wedding envoy!"

"Uh...... Your Majesty, the ministers are busy with official business, and this kind of thing has always been the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites and the Zongren Mansion? ”

Zhu Houxi rolled his eyes and said, "No matter how busy Xu Qing is, can he be busy?" Yongfu is my only sister, and I don't feel at ease if she leaves her marriage to someone else to take care of it, so it's decided, and then Xu Qing will be the main marriage envoy. ”

Xu Jin couldn't help but be speechless, and for a while he didn't understand what kind of nerves Zhu Houxi had in this kid, so he had to let himself be the main marriage envoy, so he said helplessly: "Okay, the minister's decree." ”

Zhu Houxi saw that Xu Jin agreed, and finally felt relieved, this kid's idea of letting Xu Jin be the main marriage envoy is very simple, first, to remind Xu Jin that Yongfu is already famous, don't think about it, and second, you can also make Yongfu "die".

If Xu Jin knew Zhu Houxi's thoughts at the moment, I am afraid he would cry and laugh, although he admired Princess Yongfu's appearance and temperament, but purely appreciated, not at all, and did not dare to have the slightest covetousness, people can be princesses, but he is a married man, dare to covet the princess, wouldn't he be looking for death?

However, the self-proclaimed smart little emperor was obviously very satisfied with his "wit", he patted Xu Jin on the shoulder and smiled: "Hard work Xu Qing, let's go, let's go back to the Qianqing Palace, haven't you eaten yet?" I told the Imperial Dining Room to make you a big meal. ”

So, the two of them left Cining Palace and went to Qianqing Palace, and Zhu Houxi's kid asked as he went: "Xu Qing, I heard that you have another concubine in Jiangnan, and you are still the winner of the three-time Jiangnan Oiran, you should be very beautiful, right?" ”

"Uh, it's okay, why did the emperor suddenly ask?"

"Xu Qing, you're not very handsome, you're far behind me, why is it so easy to please girls? Is there a secret? You might as well teach it to me, if it works, I will be greatly rewarded! ”

Xu Jin couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and only after a while did he say faintly: "Your Majesty, the minister has always relied on the inside, and in terms of appearance, the minister thinks that the emperor is a little more handsome than the minister!" ”

"Xu Qing, you are really not modest at all!"

"I went to school with the emperor!"

…………

On the eleventh day of the first month of the fourth year of Jiajing, Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi held a court meeting in the Wenhua Palace, and made concessions to the ministers, promising not to put the tablet of his biological father Xingxian Emperor into the Taimiao Temple, but to build another Xingxian Emperor Temple in Da Nei, dedicated to the spiritual seat of his biological father Zhu Youqi.

As Xu Jin expected, after some fierce debate, the ministers all accepted this proposal, as long as King Xing's tablet did not enter the Taimiao and did not call him the emperor, it was still barely acceptable.

In the end, the three elders of the cabinet agreed to draft an edict to the world, and after the Shangyuan Festival, representatives composed of clans and officials would be sent to Luzhou, Huguang'an to welcome the tablet of Emperor Xingxian into Beijing, and then move it into the temple after the temple was built.

The ministers passed a resolution, and Emperor Jiajing also voted to report to Li and released the officials who were imprisoned in the Beizhen Fusi prison, but Yang Shen and others, who took the lead in attacking Zuo Shunmen, were degraded. Yang Dacai will be killed in Yunnan Yongchangwei, if according to the original historical trajectory, Yang Shen will eventually die of old age in Yunnan, but because of this, he has achieved the literary name of the four great talents of the Ming Dynasty, the famous "Linjiang Immortal • Rolling Yangtze River East Passing Water" is what he made in his later years, if there is no such ups and downs in life, it is estimated that Yang Shen will not be able to make this heart-wrenching "Linjiang Immortal".

Of course, now that "Linjiang Immortal" has been preempted by Xu Jin, the traverser, it is not an ordinary tragedy, I hope that Yang Dacai can make other poems that shock the ancient Shuojin in the future.

In addition, because many officials were killed by the court staff, Zhu Houxi, in order to appease the hundred officials, finally removed Lu Bing's position as a Jinyi Wei Qianhu and punished him for introspection at home.

Lu Bing, this kid is also clever, and understands that although the emperor is punishing himself, he is really protecting himself, after all, he has killed several court officials, and now he is only dismissed, and this punishment is already light, so he knelt in front of the court and cried bitterly to express his repentance, but he hated Xu Jin to death in his heart. And those ceremonial officials also hated Lu Bing to death, and they wanted to kill him quickly, but Lu Bing was protected by the emperor, and the order of the minister of the court staff was indeed the emperor's, so he could only give up.

Lu Bing survived the catastrophe safely, this kid became more mature, and lurked with peace of mind and waited for the opportunity to make a comeback, he believed that as long as he did not lose the emperor's favor, the dormant was only temporary, and he would always have a day to rise again, and then he would slowly settle this general account with Xu Jin!

After the court discussion, the ministers walked out of the Wenhua Hall one after another, and the attitude of those ministers towards Xu Jin obviously improved, and some even greeted Xu Jin in a friendly manner, because everyone knew at this time that the emperor suddenly changed his mind, and it was precisely because of Xu Jin's persuasion in the palace.

On the contrary, the attitude of the upstart party towards Xu Jin has obviously become cold, although he is still polite on the surface, but the vigilance in his eyes cannot be concealed, it is no wonder that the former "boss" is ready to turn against each other, which makes the upstart party very hurt.

"Brother Bingyong, Brother Zishi, please stay!" Xu Jin stopped Zhang Xuan and Gui Cao, who were walking in front.

Zhang Xuan and Gui Cao stopped, and the former said with an unnatural expression: "Dare to ask Lord Xu what advice he has?" ”

Zhang Xuan and Gui Cao suddenly became noble because of the ceremony, and they also got the help of Xu Jin, and finally squeezed out Yang Tinghe and others last year, and they were planning to continue to work harder, climb up through the ceremony, get more appreciation from Emperor Jiajing, and completely overturn the Protector faction, but the former "ally" Xu Jin actually ran out at a critical moment and messed things up, and the two were angry and hateful.

"Brother Bingyong, Brother Zishi, I hope that the matter of the ceremony will end here, and there will be no more twists and turns!" Xu Jin's tone was calm, his eyes staring at Zhang Xuan and Gui Cao fiercely, and the smell of warning was very strong.

"Great Rites and Righteousness" not only costs the people and money, but also leads to internal party strife, and the internal friction of the party in the late Ming Dynasty is particularly serious, which is the Great Gift Dispute that began in the Jiajing Dynasty, so Xu Jin will not let it continue to develop.

Gui Cao showed a hint of sarcasm, but Zhang Xuan arched his hand awe-inspiring and said, "Xiaguan understands!" With that, he turned and walked away.

Gui Cao hesitated, also arched his hand to Xu Jin, and then left after Zhang Xuan.

Xu Jin looked at Zhang Xuan's back, and couldn't help frowning, Zhang Xuan in history was able to overthrow Yang Tinghe, and finally became the first assistant of the cabinet, it is indeed not easy to be with him, just this patience is very accessible.
