The capital, the imperial palace, the Qianqing Palace!

Half a year ago, the harem caught fire, Kunning Palace, Jiaotai Palace, and Qianqing Palace were all burned for a while, which caused a lot of turmoil in the court, but as time went by, no one in the palace mentioned the fire, and the new three major halls also rose from the ground, magnificent, majestic and heavy.

And what makes the courtiers happy is that it seems that with the Zheng family being completely beaten into the cold palace, the emperor also slowly began to change his mind, although there is still no permanent dynasty, but the number of summons of ministers has increased significantly, and even some officials below the third grade can occasionally see the face of the sky, which has never happened in the past!

"Gonggong Chen, I don't know why my father is in such a hurry to summon this palace to come?"

Next to His Majesty Dan in front of the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Changluo followed Chen Ju unhurriedly, but asked with a smile in his mouth.

He dealt with the affairs of Yangzhou Mansion this time, and immediately rushed back to the capital, but he had just arrived at Ciqing Palace for a while, and Chen Ju followed him and said that the emperor had a call.

Zhu Changluo didn't even have time to change his clothes, so he followed him to the Qianqing Palace, and he was naturally very puzzled in his heart.

Chen Ju owed slightly, but he was not as cautious as an ordinary eunuch and chamberlain, and he spoke after a little groaning.

"Your Royal Highness is in Yangzhou Mansion, and there is a lot of commotion, and many of the adults in the court have a lot of complaints......

Halfway through his words, Chen Ju stopped in front of the gate of the Qianqing Palace and arched his hand.

"Your Highness, wait a minute, the minister will go in and pass on the emperor!"

"Father-in-law works hard!"

Zhu Changluo also bowed his hand in return, but he already had a score in his heart, and it seemed that Xu Hongji had already begun to act.

"Your Royal Highness, the emperor has issued an edict to announce your entry into the audience!"

After a while, a small chamberlain walked out, bowed respectfully, and led Zhu Changluo into the Qianqing Palace.

"Son-in-law, see father!"

As the emperor's daily handling of government affairs, the Qianqing Palace is much larger than the Yude Palace, and it is also much more majestic, Zhu Yijun is dressed in a azure dragon casual clothes, wearing a winged crown, sitting on the throne, seeing Zhu Changluo come in, a kind smile flashed in his eyes, and he said lightly.

"Get up! I have seen the soak you sent, the case of the forgery of the yellow book in Yangzhou Mansion is very widespread, and you know the facts of the case best, tell me how to handle this case! ”

Zhu Changluo didn't expect that Zhu Yijun would ask about it as soon as he opened his mouth, but fortunately, he had already prepared in his heart, and he just said after a little groaning.

"Back to my father, the son thinks that the Yellow Book is the important business of the country, related to many aspects such as forced service and taxes, and cannot be ignored, the imperial court has repeatedly moved the documents to the yamen, so as to ensure that the Yellow Book is accurate and clear, but the Yangzhou Mansion has braved the disapproval of the world, forged the Yellow Book, and the deficit population reached 43,000 households.

When he was in Yangzhou Mansion before, Zhu Changluo wrote a note almost every day, like the progress of the Yellow Book case by the emperor, but he did not mix his own views in the note, but only objectively described the situation of the case.

But his attitude towards this case has always remained the same, not only to investigate thoroughly, but also to punish severely!

Zhu Yijun raised his eyebrows, a faint hint of relief flashed in his eyes, but his face did not move at all, and said.

"Then the prince thinks, how to investigate thoroughly, and how to punish severely?"

Zhu Changluo paused and arched his hand.

"Father Rongyu, Yangzhou Mansion forged the yellow book, it has been more than ten years, during which the four prefects, no one dared to expose the matter, but lied about the political achievements, colluded with the dirt, and even more, after the incident, dared to obstruct the Qin Cha to handle the case, it is really not to be indulgent, the son of the minister implored the father, to investigate the responsibility of the Yangzhou prefect since Wanli 16 years later! How can such people who do not care about the lives of the people for their political achievements stand above the court? ”

These words were firm and powerful, but Zhu Yijun's brows were slightly frowned, and he looked at Zhu Changluo for a moment, Zhu Yijun sighed lightly and said.

"Does the prince know that since the sixteenth year of Wanli, where have the four prefects of Yangzhou Mansion gone?"

"Back to my father, my sons know!"

Zhu Changluo arched his hand.

Since he wanted to investigate thoroughly, he naturally found out these things in advance, since the seventeenth year of Wanli, after Yang Junmin was transferred from the position of Yangzhou prefect to the head of the household department, the Yangzhou prefect has become a fast lane for official promotion.

In addition to Lu Qingzhi, who was deposed by Zhu Changluo, the two prefects in the middle are now in high positions, one is Ma Rong, the Shanxi criminal envoy, and the other is Mei Chun, the political envoy of Henan.

They are all one of the three main officials of a province, and they can be regarded as the level of feudal officials, although they are not in the imperial court, but they are also a high-ranking and powerful person.

"Now that you know, do you still insist on pursuing it?"

Zhu Yijun stared at Zhu Changluo, leaned forward slightly, and a momentum rushed towards him, doubling Zhu Changluo's pressure.

What the imperial court needs is stability!

At this point, Wang Xijue clearly told Zhu Changluo very early on that the stability of the court is overwhelming, and it is precisely because of this that Wang Xijue has always been able to be reused by the emperor.

To put it bluntly, it is the emperor who is really maintaining the stability of the court!

And there is no doubt that if this case is really handled according to Zhu Changluo's method, taking down two feudal officials and one of the six Shangshu at once will definitely make the court unstable.

Zhu Changluo could understand what Zhu Yijun was worried about, but he didn't agree, and under Zhu Yijun's displeased gaze, Zhu Changluo stepped forward and said.

"Father, the overall situation of the court is important, but the rule of the Ming Dynasty is the foundation of the country, the case of Yangzhou Mansion is not an example of a family, not only Yangzhou Mansion, all over the country have false reports of yellow books, such means have become a common practice, if not strictly investigated, in the long run, this wind prevails, and the people are suffering! The father is benevolent and does not want to add thunder, but under the trend of the times, if the court does not have a clear attitude, it will only make more and more honest and honest people above the court have to be different and corrupt, and the officials are not clear, the country is in danger! ”

In fact, in the eyes of most people, they thought that Zhu Changluo wanted to make a big fuss and establish his authority as the crown prince, and it was precisely because of this that they would continue to make all kinds of small moves.

After all, Zhu Changluo wants to stand up for power, and there are various means, so there is no need to touch the rules of officialdom and make a fuss.

But Zhu Changluo himself knows the seriousness of the Yellow Book case, since Emperor Sejong, the decadence of officialdom has prevailed, Zhu Changluo does not want to take this opportunity to establish his authority, he hopes to take this opportunity to reverse this outdated atmosphere in the officialdom, so that everyone can understand what the four words of devotion to duty are, instead of just immersing themselves in the officialdom battle and unable to extricate themselves!

Zhu Changluo's momentum was vigorous, but Zhu Yijun on the opposite side leaned slightly, and the awe-inspiring momentum disappeared suddenly, followed by the emperor's indifferent voice.

"Wei Guogong has come to the capital, you have time, see him! Xun Qi and Daming share weal and woe, you should be close! ”

With that, a hint of fatigue appeared on his face and he waved his hand.

Zhu Changluo had no choice but to give up.

"Obey the order, the son of the retainer retires!"
