"It's okay, with you, I have the bottom in my heart!" Ming Zhongxin said with a smile.

"Raippy!" Lu Mingyuan scolded with a smile.

"yes, I can't rely on anyone else!" Ming Zhongxin said with a hippie smile.

"It seems that I came to the wrong place to take advantage of the Jingshi!" Lu Mingyuan sighed lightly.

Liu Daxia looked at the old and young people with a smile, who would have thought that Mr. Lu, who was so powerful back then, would get along with a young man like this! How did this Ming Zhongxin get Mr. Lu's favor? He was deeply puzzled!

Shi Wenyi was a little dumbfounded, you know, this is the teacher of Commander Mu! CITIC can talk and laugh with him so much, it's really a demon is a demon!

"How can it! Mr. Lu's coming here is really a relief for the Ming family! Anyway, CITIC will treat each other with a teacher's courtesy! Ming Zhongxin looked like a smile.

"You boy! It's really cheap and good! Lu Mingyuan looked like he couldn't laugh or cry.

Liu Daxia was smiling beside him, very relieved, he was worried that Ming Zhongxin was a little rusty in the officialdom, and he would be caught in the trap when he walked in the officialdom, but now that Mr. Lu is here, he will naturally not let him suffer! Moreover, there is also an extra rein, which is set around Ming Zhongxin, and does not let him do anything more out of the cabinet! At this point, he was relieved.

"Come, let's set a future development strategy, otherwise, the Ming family will be scattered and easily eaten!" Lu Mingyuan's face was solemn and he said softly.

At this time, Liu Daxia, Shi Wenyi, and Ming Zhongxin didn't dare to joke anymore, so they sat around and discussed carefully.

While they were deliberating, in the imperial study of the palace.

With a snap, a palm landed heavily on the desk.

The person on the seat snorted coldly, "It's really good to have a little calculation one by one!" ”

"Your Majesty, don't be angry!" A pleasant female voice rang out.

"Oh, it's the Queen!" Hongji suppressed his anger and turned his head to look at the visitor.

"Your Majesty, who is this talking to?" Empress Zhang looked at Hongzhi with a smile and asked.

"Hmph, it's not the ministers yet! One by one, they are just thinking about their own one-third of an acre, and the court raises them to let them seek their own personal interests? As he spoke, Hongji couldn't hold back his temper and said angrily.

"Your Majesty is angry, say something, although the concubine doesn't understand the affairs of the court, but she can relieve your Majesty's mood!" Empress Zhang said with a smile.

"It's good!" Hongzhi calmed down a little and said in a deep voice, "You also know that there was a rebellion in Yunnan this time, and Wang Shouren and they happened to be in the center of the rebellion, so they were also involved. In particular, the Ming Zhongxin has played an irreplaceable role, and this return to Beijing is a sharp weapon, which is enough to raise the military strength of the Ming Dynasty to a higher level. Originally, I wanted to give Ming Zhongxin a greater reward to appease the meritorious ministers, but I never thought that there would be ministers to stop him, and some people shamelessly framed him, which made me feel extremely uncomfortable! ”

"Those elders didn't stop it?" Empress Zhang was also taken aback, and hurriedly asked.

"Pavilion Elder?" Hongji snorted coldly, "Each has his own plans!" ”

Empress Zhang was taken aback and looked at Hongzhi in disbelief, "Could it be that the elders of the pavilion also framed Ming Zhongxin?" ”

"It's not that it's a frame-up, it's just that there is something sinister about my intentions, so that some of my rewards can't be done!" Hongji shook his head, "Obviously, he calculated that I would give a big reward, but he proposed some controversial rewards in advance, blocking my way at once!" ”

Thinking about it, he was a little breathless, how could Xie Qian not know that there were huge loopholes in his proposal, but he sincerely proposed it, let people oppose it, and blocked his words of reward, so Ni Yue too, and he is not a faint king, how can he directly give Ming Zhongxin to the official as Xie Qian said, so that a generation of Shilin talents will be ruined before they can grow up! It's a pity that before he could speak, he said the words of the reward by the way, so Ni Yue directly borrowed the words of Xie Qian's defense and determined the reward!

These two guys, whether they are sincere or unintentional, are intentionally or unintentionally preventing themselves from being kind to Yu Mingzhongxin, and they really can't figure out what they are thinking.

But it's infuriating!

Especially he has taken a step back, according to what they said, he just rewarded some gold and jade things, and he was a little ashamed of Ming Zhongxin, so he wanted to include Ming Zhongxin in the East Palace, so as to be the prince's companion, which can be regarded as saving talents for the prince's future growth.

But even this, they are against it, what a real inappropriate minister!

Hongzhi complained to Empress Zhang about these words.

Empress Zhang was shocked at first, and then smiled a little.

"Your Majesty!" Empress Zhang chuckled, "Wouldn't that be good!" ”

"What's so good about that?" Hongzhi was stunned and looked at Empress Zhang.

"Your Majesty! Your proposal to enter the palace to accompany you is a bit reckless! ”

"Hmm!" Hongji frowned and replied lightly.

"Ming Zhongxin is just a small talent at this time, if he is admitted to the East Palace, I am afraid that he will be harmful!" Empress Zhang sighed lightly.

At this time, Hongji understood a little and nodded slightly.

"You know, there are countless people who covet it now! If Mingzhong can trust him to enter the East Palace, he is afraid that this open and secret spear and arrow will make him unable to dodge! ”

At this point, a hint of surprise flashed in Hongji's eyes, and he said ashamedly, "Yes, I took it for granted!" It's been too long and comfortable, and I've really forgotten about the palace fighting back then! Queen, I'm glad you reminded me! ”

Empress Zhang smiled softly, "Your Majesty has been too tired these days, and it is inevitable that there will be some blind spots in your thinking for a while!" ”

Hongzhi smiled, gently took Empress Zhang's hand, and said gently, "Fortunately, I have you!" ”

"Your Majesty, you have a good reputation!" Empress Zhang's eyes flashed with warmth, and she looked at Hongzhi silently with affection.

"By the way, what about Zhao'er?" Hongji suddenly changed the subject.

"Oh, it's just that Zhao'er didn't come back, and the concubine came to ask Your Majesty, why Zhao'er has been haunted these days, and if she is not careful, she will disappear!" Empress Zhang also had a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"Really?" Hongzhi frowned, and shouted in a deep voice, "Chen Zhun! ”

"Your Majesty!" Chen Zhun appeared in the local area out of nowhere, bowed down.

"What about the prince?"

"Your Majesty, the crown prince is still outside the palace now, and he should be back soon!" Chen Zhun bowed and replied.

"Who's around him?" Hongji frowned.

"Liu Jin, Gu Dayong and others are serving! The people in the East Factory secretly bless! ”

"Then why is it getting late, why haven't you come back?" Hongji's face sank and asked.

Chen Zhun smiled bitterly, "Send back the message, the prince is out with friends, and he can't come back for the time being!" ”

"Friends?" Hongji's face sank and he looked at Chen Zhun.

"Actually, you know this friend too!" Chen Zhun smiled bitterly.

"I know?" Hongji was stunned.

"It's that Ming Zhongxin! He had already entered the Ming Mansion before, and after the attack, the prince also appeared at the scene, if it wasn't for the persuasion of Ming Zhongxin, I was afraid that the prince would really have to enter the palace with him. However, after Ming Zhongxin entered the palace, the prince also insisted on returning to the Ming Mansion to wait! Until now! Chen Zhun told the story in detail.

Yes, I believe that all the officials already know that Zhu Shou is the current prince, Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao (October 27, 1491 – April 20, 1521), the eldest son of Zhu Youzhu and Empress Zhang of the Ming Dynasty, was made crown prince at the age of two. Because Ming Xiaozong only doted on Empress Zhang all his life, and Empress Zhang only gave birth to two sons for her, and the second son Zhu Houwei died early, so Zhu Houzhao has been regarded as the pearl of his palm since he was a child, and he has developed the character of doing whatever he wants, and even the two fathers and mothers can't control him. often goes out of the palace alone, and no one dares to stop him, as for Hongzhi and Queen Zhang, they are very fond of them, so they can only secretly send people to guard, but they dare not force him to be forced to leave the palace.

Therefore, there was a meeting and acquaintance with Ming Zhongxin.

"It's too unseemly, go quickly, urge, and ask Liu Jin and them to bring the prince back!" Hongji frowned.

"Your Majesty, Liu Jin and the others are not by the prince's side, the prince is now alone in the Ming Mansion, and today the Ming Mansion is heavily guarded, and the situation is difficult to investigate!" Chen Zhun felt that he was really wronged! But I had to go back.

"What?" Hongzhi jumped up from the dragon chair at once, "Bastard, you just allow the prince to enter the Ming Mansion alone, so you are not afraid that something will happen to him?" ”

"The minister is guilty! The minister is guilty! Chen Zhun was so frightened that he knelt on one knee and pleaded guilty again and again.

"Your Majesty, rest your anger!" Empress Zhang was also frosty, but a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, and she sighed deeply, "Don't you know our ancestor?" For a long time, he did whatever he wanted and made his own opinions, and he couldn't complain about this matter, presumably, Liu Jin and others were also driven away by Zhao'er! They didn't dare to follow into the Ming Mansion. As for the people who are secretly protecting the East Factory, they don't dare to show their faces! ”

"Humph! Liu Jin and others left their posts without permission, and when they come back this time, there will definitely be some punishment! Hongji was angry and said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Your Majesty, obey the order!" Chen Zhun hurriedly responded.

"You can't get out of the East Factory!" Hongzhi's anger did not subside, and he shouted at Chen Zhun.

"Yes, when those little cubs come back, the ministers will punish them!"

"Humph!" Hongji snorted coldly.

"Your Majesty, this is also a good thing!" Empress Zhang pondered for a moment and interjected.

"Huh!" Hongji was stunned and looked at Empress Zhang.

"Before, His Majesty said that he wanted Ming Zhongxin to enter the palace to accompany him, but now he is stillborn, besides, Ming Zhongxin's character and talent also have to be evaluated and observed, it is better to let Zhao'er have a deep friendship with him, and it is better to observe this person to see if he is really a pillar of talent! Is it worth cultivating! Moreover, it also avoided the obstruction of the ministers, who made them silent against it. At that time, if Zhao'er grows up, then Ming Zhongxin also shows the ability to take charge of himself, then we will propose to let him enter the East Palace again. Wouldn't it be a double win? Empress Zhang's eyes lit up and explained.

That's right! Hongzhi was overjoyed, this expedient measure is really clever! raised his thumbs and praised, "Queen, it's really a wise blue heart!" ”

When Empress Zhang heard this, her face was like a peach blossom, and she glanced at Hongzhi, so amorous that Hongzhi was itching.

"Chen Zhun, you go and urge the prince to return to the palace, don't stay outside for too long!" Hongji forcibly suppressed his thoughts and commanded in a deep voice.

"No!" Chen Zhun naturally responded to the order and walked away quickly.

The imperial study was quiet, and Queen Zhang, whose face was like a peach blossom, looked at Hongzhi affectionately, the two looked at each other, Hongzhi was moved, took Queen Zhang's little hand, and walked to the back room.

Jingshi Li Mansion.

"Father, it's not fair!" Li Zhaoxian looked at Li Dongyang with an angry face.

"Unfair? How do you want to be fair? Li Dongyang asked rhetorically with a sinking face.

"This?" Li Zhaoxian was dumbfounded for a while.

For a long time, "Even if you don't reward it well, it won't make the hero's heart chill!" Li Zhaoxian shouted urgently.

"Heroes? Who are the heroes? Li Dongyang asked.

"Heroes? Who else? Isn't it CITIC? ”

"What is his merit?" Li Dongyang asked rhetorically.

"Shouldn't Yunnan's disaster relief and epidemic eradication and Yunnan's pacification of rebellion be the credit of Ming Zhongxin?"

"Yunnan disaster relief and epidemic eradication, Yunnan quelling rebellion? Are these really the credit of Ming Zhongxin? Li Dongyang asked rhetorically again.

"Isn't it? If there is no CITIC to lead the chasing soldiers on behalf of Wang Shouren, if there is no Ming Zhongxin to eliminate the epidemic, if there is no Ming Zhongxin to come up with a sharp weapon, I am afraid that Wang Shouren will also be wiped out! ”

"Are you sure you can put this on the table?"

"Can't you?" Li Zhaoxian was a little dumbfounded.

"You! Immature! Li Dongyang's face was full of hatred, iron does not become steel, "Yunnan's disaster relief and epidemic eradication can only succeed under the leadership of Lord Qincha, with the imperial court's epidemic elimination strategy, and with the concerted efforts of the Qincha guards and the local government!" ”

Li Dongyang paused slightly, and said in a deep voice, "As for the rebellion in Yunnan, this was quelled by the concerted efforts of the Yunnan Political Envoy, Mu Wangye, and the Yunnan Metropolitan Division, so what does it have to do with Qincha?" What does it have to do with Ming Zhongxin? ”

Li Zhaoxian was stunned, looked at his father, and was speechless.

"Do you think that Your Majesty's reward of some gold and jade things is to treat the meritorious heroes lightly?" Li Dongyang asked.

"Then you can't let that Xie Qian'er turn his hands into clouds and turn his hands into rain, right?" Li Zhaoxian argued strongly.

"You also know that Xie Qian'er is making a hindrance!" Li Dongyang rolled his eyes.

"Do you think Your Majesty doesn't know this? Do you think that's what Your Majesty wants? Do you think Your Majesty really can't see Xie Qian's selfishness? ”

A few questions in a row made Li Zhaoxian stupid.

Li Dongyang sighed, "Politics is not on paper, nor is it black and white!" ”

"You! Think about it carefully, Li Dai Taozhuang, fled thousands of miles, meddled in local political affairs, and quelled the rebellion, can these actions of Ming Zhongxin be brought to the table? Looking at Li Zhaoxian, Li Dongyang explained softly.

Li Zhaoxian's heart moved, the excitement on his face dissipated slightly, and he listened attentively.
