Chapter 660: Strike hard

A court meeting finally ended in Zhu Di's angry reprimand, and although Xia Yuanji argued with reason, he still did not stop the emperor from going his own way.

Back in the harem, Zhu Di was still angry, and said to Zhu Gaosui, the king of Zhao who was waiting on the side: "Xia Yuanji is my old minister, why do you still not understand my hard work so much?" ”

"My father is angry, Xia Shangshu is also worried about state affairs, and he is really difficult to be a household secretary." Zhu Gaosui congratulated Xia Yuanji and explained.

Unexpectedly, his son was also speaking for Xia Yuanji, Zhu Di said in a sullen voice: "If it weren't for this, how could I spare him?" He said expressionlessly, "Do you also think that you have done something wrong for your father?" ”

"My father misunderstood, and my son thought that my father could not be more wise." Zhu Gaosui hurriedly explained: "There are many reasons for the boycott of the use of treasure banknotes, but there are departments that are not effective in supervision and let the people be free. ”

"Hmm." Zhu Di felt that this was much more pleasing to the ear, but an emperor as smart as him naturally knew that rashly cracking down on gold and silver across the country would inevitably cause many unpredictable consequences: "There is some truth in what you said, it is true that the ban on gold and silver must be strictly enforced, but whether the local officials will disobey the yang and the yin, but it will backfire, this is something that must be considered." ”

"In the humble opinion of the ministers, this matter can be broken down and the ban on gold and silver can be strictly implemented in one place, which can not only achieve the role of a pilot, but also let the officials and people of the whole country understand the determination of the imperial court." Zhu Gaosui said.

"Well, that's good." Zhu Di nodded approvingly: "Then where can it be implemented to achieve the best effect?" ”

"Erchen thinks that it can only be practiced in Jingshi!" Zhu Gaosui said in a deep voice: "Jingshi is the center of wealth in the world, and its influence radiates throughout the country, and it is not implemented in Beijing, so it cannot show the importance of the imperial court." As long as there is no obstacle to the implementation in the capital, there will be no resistance to the implementation in the whole country. Moreover, the imperial court also has the strongest control over the Jingshi, with a million troops and my two imperial brothers in charge, even if the worst case scenario is not a big mess, it can be described as foolproof. ”

"You've made great progress." Zhu Di felt that it made sense, and smiled with satisfaction: "You go and let Yang Rong draw up the ticket, and I will take a look at it and issue it." ”

"Yes." Seeing that the emperor was moved by his own words, Zhu Gaosui was secretly happy, so he respectfully responded, withdrew from the palace, and came to the Wenhua Hall to inform him in person.

In addition to Yang Shiqi and Hu Guang, who fell out of favor, stayed in the capital, Hu Wei, Yang Rong, and Jin Youzi all followed the emperor to Beijing, and were on duty day and night in the Wenhua Hall of the West Palace, drafting edicts, previewing chapters, and counselors for the emperor at any time.

As the emperor's secretarial body, the pieces that flew in like snowflakes from all over the country had to be reviewed by the cabinet to distinguish between important and unimportant pieces, and all the pieces were outlined, and preliminary opinions were written on small pieces of paper and pasted in the pieces...... It's the so-called 'vote'. The work of Yiqiē is to reduce the burden of the emperor's work and make it easier for the emperor to control the operation of this empire.

However, the main hall of the Wenhua Hall is the place where the emperor holds the Spring and Autumn Feast, of course, it cannot be used for the cabinet to work, and as a result, three scholars and more than a dozen scholars can only be crowded into the cramped West Side Hall to work. A room of important music, for the sake of secrecy and anti-theft, and can not open the window for ventilation, the result is that the room is the same as the steamer. and all of them are wearing neat official uniforms, from the second assistant to the sheren, all of them are sweating like rain......

The offices of the people in the outer middle school are close to the door, which can be slightly better, and the common office of the three university scholars in the inner room is airtight, which is called a stuffy heat! Jin Youzi was already fat, and now he was already sweating through the back of his clothes, so in order not to let the sweat stain the music, he could only keep wiping the sweat. I didn't know that after seeing a piece of music, I couldn't help but shiver, as if I had fallen into an ice hole.

After sitting for a while, he hurriedly got up with the book, gently rested it in front of Hu Wei's table and said, "Ge Lao, please take a look." ”

Hu Wei knew that something big must have happened, otherwise Jin Youzi didn't need to show it to himself, Rao was already mentally prepared, but after reading the content of the recital, he was still speechless for a while.

At this time, Yang Rong walked over, picked up the piece and looked at it, and couldn't help but gasp and said, "This Wang Zhongde is really messing up!" ”

"Yes, he dared to mobilize the army to sweep the capital, this is to copy the nine clans!" Jin Youzi said.

"It doesn't matter if he's dead," Hu Wei said, "Will the emperor blame the crown prince and think that His Highness instructed him?" ”

Yang Rong and Jin Youzi's expressions sank when they heard this, and they both knew that this was not impossible. After a while, Yang Rong said in a low voice: "Although Wang Xian is bold, he is not a madman, it should be the situation in the capital, and he has to do this kind of thing." ”

"What's wrong with the capital," Hu Wei said, "It's normal, right?" ”

"That's what you see on the cantata." Yang Rong said softly: "Before the recital reaches our hands, we must first go through the General Administration Department and the inner court, and some recitals that should not be seen by the emperor have long been intercepted." Naturally, we can't see it. ”

"Does Brother Mian Ren know something?" Hu Wei heard Yang Rong's off-string sound.

"I received a private message from Brother Shiqi the day before yesterday, and I mentioned the situation in the capital a little in my heart......" Yang Rong said frankly: "According to what he said, the miasma of the black smoke tossed by King Han and Ji Gang is very unusual. ”

"That's ......" Hu Wei nodded slowly, pondered for a long time, and asked, "What do you say?" ”

"Today, on the Golden Palace, the emperor is furious, and now hand over this recital, it is difficult to guarantee what the emperor will do." Jin Youzi wiped the cold sweat on his head and said, "If the prince is implicated, it will be bad." ”

"Then ...... Pressing one day, playing again tomorrow? Hu Wei said in a low voice: "But who knows if the emperor will be angry when he sees it tomorrow?" ”

"Of course the emperor will be angry." Yang Rong said calmly: "But I think Taisun and Wang Xian can't get into trouble and be like someone who has nothing to do, they must also have a book." He said in a low voice: "So it's not enough to press for one day, and the recital must be pressed to the prince's side." ”

"You said that the secretary of the general administration and the eunuchs intercepted the recital, whether their recital can be reached or not!" Hu Wei was frightened and said: "Besides, it will be dangerous for us to delay for a day, and if we drag it for a long time, I am afraid that even I will have to pay for it!" ”

"Yes......" Jin Youzi was also worried: "If you don't report such a big thing tomorrow, it's already too much to say, and it will be dangerous to delay it any longer." ”

"......" After listening to the words of the two, Yang Rong silently put the piece into his sleeve, "I can take on everything by myself, and the three of them don't have to suffer together." ”

"What are you talking about...... Hu Wei and Jin Youzi were embarrassed, and the latter said: "This is what I saw first, if I only bear it alone, it has to be me!" ”

"I'm the second assistant, the first assistant is not here, I am the main here, of course I will bear it." Hu Wei also said.

Yang Rong smiled and was just about to speak, when he heard a pleasant voice and said, "What are the three adults fighting for?" ”

The faces of the three of them changed, they hurriedly calmed down, put away their expressions, got up and greeted each other: "Lord Wang." ”

It was the boy and girl, the handsome and handsome His Royal Highness King Zhao, as soon as he walked into the steamer-like room, he was so hot that he frowned, and the two handsome little eunuchs behind him were busy fanning him while serving ice handkerchiefs. Zhu Gaoxu didn't take the ice handkerchief, nor did he let people fan and said: "A few people haven't shouted heat here all day, and they came to stand alone, which is nothing." ”

"Don't, continue to fan the prince! We are used to the heat, and we are sweating profusely, and the prince does not come often, so don't suffer from heat stroke. Hu Wei hurriedly laughed.

"Go to the carriage and get a cold drink." King Zhao waved his hand to rebuke the little eunuch, insisting on asking the three scholars to share weal and woe. He sat down in the right seat and said with a smile: "What were the three of you talking about just now?" ”

"Say it and make the prince laugh, we are discussing whether to open the window," Jin Youzi said with a smile: "It's really impossible to provoke, everyone wants to open the window, but they are afraid of any mistakes, and they are fighting for responsibility." ”

"Haha, that's the case...... King Zhao laughed and said: "You guys should also be careful, this palace is heavily guarded, what can you do if you open the windows?" Open the window! Let's just say that this king meant, and I am responsible for what happened! ”

The three scholars breathed a sigh of relief, and Jin Youzi said with a smile on his face: "Follow the prince's order, but the prince is not responsible." He walked over and opened a row of windows. Fresh air poured in, and the stuffiness in the room disappeared in a hurry.

"Haha, how comfortable is this. How can a few university scholars manage every day, but how can they succeed without a good office environment? King Zhao said with a smile: "I'll tell my father and the emperor that there are more cool places in the West Palace, so why don't you feel aggrieved here." ”

"Then thank you in advance," Hu Wei said with a smile: "If we can solve this problem, the prince will be our great benefactor." ”。

After a few idle words, Hu Wei asked about the matter: "The prince is going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, I don't know what to say?" ”

"First, I came to comfort a few scholars, and second, I have a message from my father to pass on." King Zhao said with a straight face: "Father ordered Master Yang to issue a ticket, and the specific content is ......" As he spoke, he relayed Zhu Di's meaning. Yang Rong frowned secretly when he heard this, but this was the emperor's will, he was just the emperor's pen, even if he wanted to build a yì, it was not at this time. I had to whisper: "The minister obeys the order." ”

At this time, the eunuch came in with an ice bucket, and King Zhao took out a beautiful white porcelain jar from it, and said with a smile: "It is a homemade ice cheese to cool the summer, please taste it." ”

"Thank you for the reward." The three of them hurriedly thanked him.

"What's polite, I'll have people deliver it every day in the future." Zhu Gaoxu got up with a friendly smile and said, "Don't bother the three of you today, I'll go back first." ”

"I'll wait to send the prince." The three of them said respectfully.
