Chapter 18 Plan ahead

While Zhu Youxiao was waiting quietly, his heroic words gradually spread. Of course, the scope was not wide. It was only spread among the high-level courtiers. After all, not everyone has the ability to speak from inside the palace.

Get the news, and the people who get the news know the seriousness of the matter and will not talk nonsense.

As a big empire, it still has a certain ability to keep information confidential. Often, the secrets that make a lot of noise are always driven by someone behind the scenes.

In the secluded study room of the house of Ye Xianggao, the first assistant of the dynasty, several old men were sitting quietly and chatting. The one sitting at the head was naturally Ye Xianggao, the bachelor and the first assistant of the dynasty. The others were members of the Donglin Party.

Although he is sitting at the top of the list and has the highest official position, Ye Xianggao is not too powerful.

Several people gathered together and discussed in low voices about the situation of the Jingcha and the Donglin Party in the DPRK, and then fell silent. Then everyone turned their attention to the leader Ye Xianggao, wondering how many people he would convene tonight.

What are people doing here?

"Everyone, I just want you to see something when we gather tonight." After saying that, Ye Xianggao picked up a stack of white paper on the desk and handed it to everyone.

What was written on the paper was not anything else, but what Zhu Youxiao said that day in Wanli's palace, as well as a summary of some of his actions over the years.

He is active by nature, likes to wander around, and loves ingenious things. Recently, he asked Wanli Diao Qijin and Yu Zigao to teach martial arts. There are many things that can reflect Zhu Youxiao's temperament since he was born.

Summed it up.

Ye Xianggao did not pretend to be mysterious, and directly wrote on the paper which person's words and deeds this was. Therefore, several people present read it very carefully. Every time they read a sentence, they thought deeply about the impact and influence behind it.

as a result of.

Everyone present had witnessed and experienced the shocking vision with their own eyes. The magnificent and magnificent scene is still deeply engraved in their hearts. Therefore, they are all very cautious about information related to His Highness Taisun.

Even though he is only a five-year-old child now, no one dares to take it lightly.

The vision was really shocking, and Zhu Youxiao's status was extremely valuable, as the crown prince of the country and the future emperor.

In this era when the family and the country are integrated and I am the country, the quality of the emperor can be said to have a direct impact on the rise and fall of the entire nation and the entire dynasty. For the Donglin Party, the future tendencies of those in power are particularly noteworthy.

After silently reading the information on the paper, everyone fell silent. No one spoke first, and some even closed their eyes and pondered quietly.

For a while, the atmosphere in the study was a little dull.

"What do you think about this?" In the end, Ye Xianggao, as the convener and information provider, was the first to speak. This matter was too big for him to make the decision alone. Ye Xianggao started from a humble beginning, but in the end he became a

The chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty, although there are reasons for his own ability, there are also people behind him who support him. And among these people in front of him, there are representatives of those supporters.

Still no one spoke. The people present were all intelligent people, but they still couldn't interpret anything from the information. They could only vaguely feel that there seemed to be something behind it, something that made them feel chilled in their hearts.

, but they couldn’t describe what it was exactly.

"Is this... another righteous person?" Someone frowned and said this tentatively. The speaker was Zhao Nanxing, one of the leaders of the Donglin Party and one of the founders of the Donglin Party.

.

The participants were silent. The name of Zhu Houzhao, Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty, made them a little afraid. This kind of fear was probably similar to that of a scholar who met Bing Youli. If he was such an emperor, it would be very detrimental to them in controlling the government and safeguarding their own interests.

After Zhao Nanxing finished speaking, Ye Xianggao took a deep look at him. He knew that among the group of people, only this old friend who was always known for his wisdom had seen something, but he could not describe it accurately.

I can only give an example where their intuitions feel the most similar.

Ye Xianggao himself didn't realize it. When he got this information, his first reaction was that there was going to be another Ming Wuzong? But then, the intuition he had cultivated during his many years of political career told him that this conclusion was not very accurate.

.

"Be prepared early!" When everyone was silent, Zou Yuanbiao, who had been silent next to him, said something. As soon as these words came out, all the participants felt a thump in their hearts and suddenly became alert. They have always been like this about power.

Zhao Nanxing's words are simple, but the profound meaning contained in them is not simple. To put it simply, it is to arrange people around Qianlong, and to take a step further, it is to let the real dragon lurking in the abyss receive their education and become a true "gentleman"

”.

"A gentleman is known as righteousness, and a villain is known as benefit."

In this regard, the people of the Donglin Party have done a very good job, and they will not let go of any possible opportunity. From what Chongzhen did after he came to the throne, it can be seen that this group of people has learned the essence of preparing for a rainy day.

"Second the proposal." The first person to agree was Li Sancai, the Minister of Household Affairs. He is a cadre of the Donglin Party, and his talents are unparalleled and very fierce.

"If you can trust me, I will plan this matter first. When the situation is more specific, we will discuss it together." Seeing someone supporting him, Ye Xianggao suggested quietly while stroking his beard.

Naturally, everyone had no objections to his proposal.

"Mr. Ge's words are serious, I naturally believe him."

"I naturally admire Brother Jinqing's ability."

"There is no need to be modest, Mr. Taishan. It is naturally your responsibility to take charge of this matter."

After some chaos, the party ended like this. Only Zhao Nanxing, Li Sancai, and Zou Yuanbiao, under Ye Xianggao's eyes, calmly took a step behind and stayed. The three giants and two generals of the Donglin Party,

Except for Gu Xiancheng, one of the giants, everyone was here. After a few people looked at each other, they all showed the slightest worry. This is a troubled time. The Beijing inspection does not know the outcome next year, and the emperor's grandson does not seem to be too worried now.

Peaceful.

That night, the lights in Ye Xianggao's study were brightly lit and stayed on! When it was dawn and the gates of the capital opened, a horseman set off from the back door of the chief minister's residence. After leaving the capital, he went straight to Wuxi, Anhui.

"The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is vast..." The sound of reading came from the small study room. Although the voice was immature, it revealed a calmness and quietness that ordinary children did not have.

Zhu Youxiao held the book and learned from Cao Huachun sentence by sentence. Because of his strong learning ability, Cao Huachun was not rigid and wanted him to read through three enlightenment books, recognize all the words, and then explain them one by one.

The meaning, and Zhu Youxiao also slowly understood the splendid culture of ancient China through this little bit of interpretation.

As an adult, he deeply knows the importance of learning. Even if he is destined to be an emperor in the future, he cannot neglect the study of cultural knowledge. Otherwise, when a group of ministers argue in the future, you will not be able to understand what they say.

.

While Zhu Youxiao was concentrating on studying, a figure was standing outside, watching him quietly through the half-open window. A closer look revealed that the figure was none other than his cheap father, Crown Prince Zhu Changluo.

Zhu Changluo had a smile in his eyes and a face full of joy. He himself had not read many books and his educational level was not high, so he was naturally very happy to see his son being taught to read at such a young age. Even if the person teaching him was just a eunuch,

He was also very happy.

He is not a good emperor, but he is a good father.

After standing and watching for a while, Zhu Changluo left with a heart full of joy. This scene had been going on for several days. Ever since Zhu Youxiao started studying, Zhu Changluo had been like this every day without interruption. From beginning to end,

Zhu Youxiao didn't even notice this figure who was silently paying attention to him.

Of course, it was not that no one noticed it. As a teacher, Cao Huachun must have seen it, but he did not say a word. It was the same this time. He tilted his head slightly, watched His Highness the Crown Prince leave, and then focused his attention on it.

It comes to Zhu Youxiao.

This is his hope.

Time has passed by in such a long way, and the government and the public have been dull and calm. It seems that everyone is saving up their strength and waiting for a big fight next year.

On this day, Zhu Youxiao followed Cao Huachun to read and read in the study as usual. Wei Zhongxian, who was responsible for communicating internally and externally with him, hurried in and whispered beside him: "Master, Qi Jin and Yu Zi

Gao has arrived."

"Finally here." After hearing these words, Zhu Youxiao stood up suddenly. Because his movements were so fast, the chair he was sitting on was brought down by his movements.

"Go, take them to the Royal Horse Supervision Room." Zhu Youxiao's face turned red and he ordered in a hurry. He was excited. Then he handed a token to Wei Zhongxian, which was given by Wanli.

His, to facilitate his passage in the palace.

"Yes, Master." Wei Zhongxian responded and left in a hurry. Judging from Zhu Youxiao's demeanor and tone, he felt the importance of the matter.

He came here not long after his great-grandson was born. It can be said that he watched Principal Zhu You grow up. He was a peaceful child. This was the impression Wei Zhongxian had formed over the past five years. He had never seen the young master.

It seemed like nothing could surprise him, except this time.

Therefore, he also looked solemn and his face was full of seriousness. "The Za family should take a closer look at how two vulgar warriors can let me value them so much."

It's not that he is jealous. The inner minister and the foreign minister are completely two entities and cannot threaten each other's status. His real purpose is to learn. He wants to see what the other person likes and likes, and then learn it himself.

Come here, in this way, you will be able to gain the attention of the young master, do more things for him, and he will be able to dominate the other two eunuchs.

In the palace, there are only two types of eunuchs, useful ones and useless ones. Even if you are the emperor's companion, when you can't do things and are no longer of use, you will be abandoned by the emperor. At most, you will only get a better one.

Just the ending.

In the palace, every eunuch is like this, no exception.
