The big boss in the court, led by Liu Jian and Li Dongyang, felt that the country's fortunes are booming and singing and dancing are rising. He thought that no one in the court could shake the status of the civil servant group, and he was not worried that someone in the court would jump out and sing the opposite tune.

Even the emperor is no match for us, so who else dares to make trouble?

With this mentality, the civil servant group is thinking about how to continue the "peaceful and prosperous era". To put it bluntly, it is to find someone who is in line with their political views and ideas to take over.

And this person is obviously not that suitable for Xie Qian, because on some issues, Xie Qian will sing a counter-tune with the civil service group.

In fact, to be serious, Xie Qian only went against the wishes of the civil service group on Shen Xi's issue, and at the other time he could still firmly consider the issue from the standpoint of Liu Jian and Li Dongyang. However, as long as there was a time when Liu Jian would not cooperate, Liu Jian would feel that Xie Qian might go against his opinions on more matters, and even if it was a 20 or 30 years of friendship, he could only put it aside.

Politically, we only talk about interests, not feelings.

Just as Liu Jian and Li Dongyang were conspiring in the cabinet, Empress Zhang had already requested Zhu Youzhang from the Ganqing Palace to transfer some old eunuchs from the Eastern Palace back to let these people teach the prince to become successful. At the same time, she informed Zhu Houzhao of his previous words to treat the elderly in the palace well.

Zhu Youzhang knew that his son had such a heart, so Lao Huai comforted him and felt that his son had matured a lot after going out to train.

Queen Zhang looked happy: "Emperor, you always said before that the emperor's son was a willful person, but he went out and walked away. After returning to the palace, he not only studied hard, but also worked hard, but also became much more mature in his daily life. It seems that the emperor has indeed grown up!"

Zhu Youzhang coughed twice, with a little relief, nodded and said, "Hope as the queen said, this child... has grown up in a honeypot since he was a child. It is not necessarily a bad thing for him to go out of the palace to see the sufferings of people's livelihood. The only thing is that when he chose... I was sweating coldly!"

From the perspective of his parents, Zhu Houzhao went out to walk around and returned safely. It was better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. It was a great thing for his son, so they naturally agreed.

However, the emperor and the queen were worried that Zhu Houzhao would go out to travel during this period and what happened to the palace. Once the inheritance of the throne was involved, small matters would become big things, which made Zhu Youzhang extremely worried.

Zhu Youzhang said again: "I have been in the palace all my life. He can go out for a walk. This is just a matter of fact. In fact, I also had the beautiful fantasy of going out to travel around the world, but the old emperor did not give me a chance. Now the prince has returned from outside and has gained some insights in his words and actions. He made military contributions in the battle against the Tatars before. I saw his wise and brave side from the prince. I will definitely be much better than I am in the future as an emperor. Unfortunately, I cannot see his future glory..."

Queen Zhang quickly said, "Your Majesty, you are in the prime of spring and autumn, so it's too early to say this!"

Zhu Youzu sighed: "My body cannot be hidden from me. Now I am in my twilight years, and I don't know how long I can last. It's just that I have suffered you. In the future, the prince... that is, the future emperor, if you want you to take care of it, I will regard you as a husband and wife relationship with me!"

Speaking of the emotional part, Queen Zhang couldn't help but wipe her tears.

For an emperor who can legally own three palaces, six courtyards, seventy-two concubines, Zhu Youzhe did nothing wrong. Even when Empress Zhang entered the palace, she never expected that she would be so favored. She was just a daughter of an ordinary family, and her father was just a student and had no label of a wealthy family. If she had not married into the palace by chance, she might have to marry someone else as a concubine for the future of the family, just like her sisters.

Zhu Youzhi said: "Since the emperor wants to treat the elderly in the palace and the court well, I think this idea is very good. I am afraid that if the emperor and the ministers are easily replaced after he ascended the throne, it will cause turmoil in the court and then become unexpected. The capable old ministers around me have been tested by time. If you maintain this team, you will not have to worry about problems in the court affairs for at least a few years."

"I have never changed the ministers in the court before, so I have such a plan. If he can do a good job of the monarch and his ministers, he will be an explanation to those old ministers who have served me for many years. I will be extremely relieved in the underworld!"

"emperor!"

When Queen Zhang heard Zhu Youting's words, she looked sad and covered with a layer of mist in her bright big eyes, and she called out sadly.

Zhu Youzing smiled and took his wife into his arms, saying, "Well, since the prince has this idea, he will recall some old ministers from the Eastern Palace before... By the way, these eunuchs should be alive at present, right? Are there anyone who comes out of the palace to support her? Eunuch Xiao?"

Xiao Jing, who was standing at the gate of the hall, responded quickly: "Your Majesty, I am here!"

Because Zhu Youzhang was holding his wife intimately, Xiao Jingzhi hid outside the door consciously.

However, in fact, Xiao Jing had no need to avoid doing this kind of thing, because in Zhu Youting's eyes, Xiao Jing was a slave who had long lost his male function and would not have any inappropriate thoughts. If it were an ordinary emperor, there might be eunuchs by his bed when he was in the concubine. In the eyes of the emperor, this was not a problem at all.

Zhu Youzhe asked, "Who were the eunuchs of the Eastern Palace in the past? Did anyone die or leave the palace?"

This problem is actually a test of Xiao Jing's memory. If it were ordinary people, they would not have remembered where so many attendants of the Eastern Palace went, but Xiao Jing had a good memory. After a little thought, he replied: "Your Majesty, all the attendants of the Eastern Palace were there before. Liu Jin used the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Prison to dispatch the guards of the Sea Guards!"

"Liu Jin?"

Zhu Youzhang suddenly heard the name and felt a little familiar. After thinking about it, he remembered it, "Isn't Liu Jin the most favored eunuch around the prince before? How did he transfer to Dinghaiwei now? It's really far enough, did he make any mistakes?"

Xiao Jing thought, it seemed that Liu Jin took the initiative to apply for external transfer.

When the prince and Empress Zhang decided to transfer Liu Jin from the Eastern Palace, Liu Jin then traveled to several yamen in the palace and finally entered the Imperial Horse Prison. During this extra transfer, Liu Jin also managed to deal with the palace because local custody is superior and poor. Just based on annual income, a garrison eunuch of Dinghai Guard can be much more generous than the eunuch of the Eastern Palace.

But the reality is not the case. The target of the attendant of the Eastern Palace is the crown prince. If the attendant ascends the throne, the people around him may rise to the top. The attendant will become the eunuch in the vassal or the imperial horse supervisor, and it can be said that he can dominate the court and the public at any time.

Xiao Jing said: "I have never made any mistakes!"

Zhu Youzhang nodded slightly: "Since you are not at fault, please transfer him back to Beijing. There are a few more candidates for the Eastern Palace's Changshou, so that all the old Changshou will return to the Eastern Palace to assist the prince and guide him to learn, so as not to make trouble in the future!"

Emperor Hongzhi said this only in front of his slaves.

If he was in front of the court officials, Zhu Youzhang would never mention the prince's "nonsense". He was deeply in love with the calf and did not want his son to lose his dignity in front of the ministers. However, judging from the current situation, his son did not have much status in the minds of Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others, which is also the key to the emergence of conflicts between the monarch and the ministers.

Xiao Jing thought that it was not difficult to transfer a garrison eunuch back to Beijing, so he immediately bowed: "I respect Your Majesty's will, and I will arrange to draft an edict afterwards..."

As the parties involved in the incident, Zhu Youzhang, Empress Zhang and Xiao Jing did not realize what impact this incident would have on the political trend of the Ming Dynasty, and simply wanted to fulfill the prince's kindness and filial piety.

Even the civil and military ministers of the court would not have thought that the Silijian just issued an inconspicuous edict on behalf of the emperor, and transferred an insignificant little person back to Beijing for office, which would cause such great turmoil in the future.

Liu Jian and Li Dongyang still hold the mentality of "peace in the world" and wait for the new cabinet ministers to inherit their governing philosophy.

But he didn't know that a jackal was about to jump out of his nest, and then he made trouble when Zhu Houzhao favored him.
