Rule the Ming Dynasty Alone

Forbidden City, follow the door on the right.

There is a row of buildings located in the southwest, which is where the Liuke Gallery is located, and the adjacent Qianbu Kuo is used to store a large number of court documents and memorials.

This is similar to the situation opposite in the Wenyuan Pavilion of Zuo Shunmen, where the ministers have low positions and high power. Although the highest rank is only the seventh rank, they can point their swords at the six ministers, and even impeach the chief minister.

For example, Li Zi Province has recently been convicted. Because Li Yu, the Minister of Civil Affairs, was recommended by Li Zi Province, they have been impeached one after another, and they are bound to bring down this unclean Minister of Civil Affairs.

Duke Du was saved, thanks to our concerted efforts!

The emperor has just ascended to the great throne, and he should directly advise the emperor to be virtuous!

The East Factory has been causing trouble to our Ming Dynasty for a long time. Today we should make plans to abolish it in words and deeds!

…

Officials of the Ming Dynasty were all chameleons who knew how to adapt to the changing circumstances. Now that they saw that Zhu Youtang was just a paper tiger, they immediately came forward to admonish him under the banner of justice, and even wanted to take the opportunity to abolish the Dongchang.

Although Jin Yiwei has been infiltrated by the children of their civil servant group, the personnel transferred from Jin Yiwei to serve as police officers in Dongchang are all Jin Yiwei with humble origins. It is a secret service agency that their civil servant group cannot touch.

That's why they don't really hate Jinyiwei now, but they hate Dongchang, which serves as His Majesty's minions, and even more, they hate Xichang, which was once led by Wang Zhi.

Fortunately, the current new king is far less courageous than Emperor Chenghua, but he does not dare to easily take down a minister of the Ministry of Justice. He is as filial and wise as the rumors say.

The autumn air is crisp and not stained by fine dust.

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang split the function of collecting memorials from Zhongshu Province and allowed officials' memorials to be sent to the clerk's room of the Secretary of Ceremonies through the eunuch on duty at Zuoshunmen without going through the General Affairs Department.

The officials of Liu Ke Gallery walked out of the Youshun Gate one after another and came to the Zuoshun Gate on the opposite side, handing in their memorials directly admonishing the monarch for behavioral norms and the memorials for the abolition of the East Factory.

During the official affairs, Song Cong also came to Zuo Shun's door, but instead of looking for the eunuch, he went to the cabinet official responsible for reporting and conveying the report, and handed over a copy of the six sections' memorial tomorrow morning.

Now the early dynasty stipulated that each yamen could only report one thing. Although he wanted to directly report the abolition of Dongchang, he finally chose to target Li Yu, the Minister of Civil Affairs.

When officials all over the dynasty were thinking about how to teach Zhu Youtang how to behave, Zhu Youtang rarely left the Forbidden City and came to Xiyuan, located to the west of the Forbidden City.

Xiyuan, this is a royal garden and a place for emperors to play and hunt.

Zhu Youtang looked at the lakes and mountains in front of him, and had the illusion that he had arrived in the suburbs just after leaving the Forbidden City. The mountains, forests, lakes, and birds and animals in front of him were full of the flavor of nature.

When the late Emperor was in good health, he would often come here to ride horses! Qian Yi carefully helped Zhu Youtang get on the horse and said with tears as if reminiscing about the good times.

When they learned that Zhu Youtang wanted to ride a horse, the eunuchs here took it very seriously. Not only did they find a BMW with the most docile temperament, but they also carefully checked whether the saddle was suitable, whether the stirrups were stable, and whether the reins, reins, and other equipment were complete. .

drive!

Zhu Youtang waved his horsewhip lightly, and the BMW headed forward, and the familiar feeling immediately returned.

He was canonized as a prince at the age of six. Riding and shooting is a basic skill. Although his talent was mediocre earlier, he is now naturally good at it.

When riding a horse and galloping up and down, a kind of happiness belonging to a man surges into my heart. At this moment, I have an urge to go to the end of the world with my sword.

Master, slow down, slow down! Liu Jin followed behind, urging him very worriedly.

When Zhu Youtang saw that this guy was actually trying to catch up with him, because of his facial expression, he immediately waved his riding whip and sped up, riding his horse and galloping forward.

This is actually a place for horse walking. Guardrails block the way from entering the mountains and forests to the north, so we have to turn back to the original place.

Before returning to Longfu Palace, Zhu Youtang tightened his grip on his horse and turned over to dismount, ending his first riding experience in this era.

vomit……

Liu Jin was actually a beginner on horseback riding. As soon as he got off the horse, he couldn't help but lay on the ground and vomited everything he had eaten today.

Your Majesty, all the personnel have been summoned! Qian Yi stepped forward and carefully helped Zhu Youtang dismount, and reminded him seriously.

Slave Zheng Guozhong pays homage to Your Majesty, long live my emperor! Zheng Guozhong stepped forward and immediately knelt down and said.

I bow to my master, long live my master! Nearly twenty young eunuchs behind him knelt on one knee and shouted to Zhu Youtang in unison.

Zhu Youtang looked at the energy displayed by these eunuchs. If he hadn't judged from their voices, he would have mistaken them for soldiers with military background.

Throughout the history of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chenghua was the emperor who made the most use of eunuchs.

In fact, far beyond Xichang, a large number of eunuchs were appointed locally, and Wang Zhi even once led troops to fight in person. This was something that had never happened in the Ming Dynasty.

It's just that a lot of work relies on eunuchs, so it is necessary to increase the number of eunuchs, and loyal and capable eunuchs become particularly important.

Because of this, Emperor Chenghua had higher requirements for the eunuchs in Xiyuan, and Wang Zhi, who became famous in later generations, stayed here for a period of time.

Zheng Guozhong thanked Zhu Youtang, turned around and waved to the twenty young eunuchs behind him.

These eunuchs soon walked into the racecourse and began to operate under Zhu Youtang's eyes. Although they cannot be said to be excellent in riding and shooting, they are definitely the best among the eunuchs.

Your Majesty may not know something. On the day of the late emperor's death, the Empress Dowager had arranged for the Zhou family and in-laws to join the 12th Battalion as the capital commander! Qian Yi knew that Zhu Youtang wanted to take back the Beijing Army. The power of control seems complicated and authentic.

Zhu Youtang actually knew this, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to great lengths to get Qian Yi back, but he looked at Zheng Guozhong next to him and said, Are they loyal enough?

They are all of pure origin and brought into the palace since childhood. They have knelt before the Qianqing Palace every day for the past ten years. They are screened every year. There must be no problem with their loyalty! Zheng Guozhong said seriously.

Zhu Youtang looked at the riding and shooting performance in front of him and found that it really took a lot of effort to achieve some results.

Twenty eunuchs had a hand-to-hand fight in the open space in front of them when the arrows were fired on the target. In the end, a tall young eunuch won.

Zhu Youtang called the winner in front of him, looked at the sturdy eunuch and said, What's your name?

My name is Zhang Yong? Zhang Yong looked a little excited when facing Zhu Youtang, and responded with tears in his eyes.

Zhu Youtang frowned slightly, but asked seriously: The name Zhang Yong is not very good. Do you want to be given a surname by me?

This slave is asking for more! Zhang Yong's eyes lit up and he immediately expressed his stance.

Zhu Youtang knew that some honors were coveted by eunuchs, but he patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him: Then you have to perform well!

In the afternoon of the same day, the judgment document from the Ministry of Punishment was submitted to the cabinet.

Although there are flaws in Wang Yue's poems, the resentment in writing poems is malicious speculation and cannot be convicted of this crime! The late emperor punished Wang Yue to temper his ambition. Now Wang Yue has been exiled to Anlu for many years, and the new dynasty should be the one who employs people. The situation, so the country and the situation can eliminate his sin...

When Wan An and Liu Ji saw the closing document, they simply couldn't believe their eyes, and expressions of disbelief immediately appeared on their faces.

There is no need to speculate about the twists and turns. Since the Ministry of Punishment has found the case innocent, let's submit it to His Majesty! Wan An was absentminded for a long time, and then said in a big brother tone.

Although Liu Ji wanted to know the reason, it was done now, and his cabinet had no reason to stop it, so he nodded lightly.

The cabinet did not dare to block it and had no reason to block it, so the judge from the Ministry of Punishment immediately sent it to the Qianqing Palace.

It's fake, it's definitely fake, it can't be like this!

When the news reached the outside world, everyone was shocked, and most officials were unwilling to accept the cruel truth.
