After listening to Zhu Youxiao’s decision, the four cabinet ministers’ expressions were different.

Among them, Han Du was the happiest, but the other three had no intention of being happy. Obviously, they did not like this choice.

However, Zhu Youxiao didn't care whether they liked it or not, he just wanted to make this decision.

After pondering for a moment, Sun Chengzong took a step forward and said slowly, "Your Majesty, Feng Congwu is the sacrificial sacrificial wine of the Royal Academy. Students of the Royal Academy will also participate in the imperial examination next year, which may cause criticism at that time. Should Your Majesty think carefully?

After looking at Sun Chengzong, Zhu Youxiao didn’t suspect that he had selfishness. Even if he had selfishness, it didn’t matter. This is a very normal thing. How many officials in the court have no selfishness?

It’s just that Zhu Youxiao doesn’t care.

Zhu Youxiao stretched out his finger, knocked on the chair handle, and smiled carelessly, "Even so, so what?"

In fact, Zhu Youxiao’s meaning is very obvious, that is, to help Feng Congwu up.

That's what he thought and was ready to do it. He didn't care about the things that caused criticism.

Not only does he not care, he wanted to tell scholars all over the world through such criticism. If you want to be an official, then go to the Royal Academy by obediently. Instead of making a fuss about it and setting up your own business.

The most typical example is when Emperor Wu of Han respected Confucianism only, where was the person who Teacher Huang learned?

If you choose one aspect, you must give up on the other hand. Fragments have no good fruits to eat.

Especially in terms of national policies, if they are determined to be correct and formulated, they must be implemented as soon as possible and to the end. The most important thing is to change the orders every day. If you are afraid of criticism, you will not implement them. What is the meaning of the policy?

When Sun Chengzong heard Zhu Youxiao's words, he was stunned.

He didn't expect His Majesty to say this, but he understood His Majesty's meaning in an instant, that's either this or that. You either choose to listen to me or don't think about being an official.

Are there many people in this world who are talented?

The answer is many.

But what about more people?

More people study just to be officials. Although they talk about benevolence, righteousness, morality, and ideals of their families and countries, they actually think about how to be an official and make the official bigger.

Zhu Youxiao obviously had no intention of discussing it any more. He stood up, waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's get to this. This matter is settled, you can step back."

None of the four dared to be negligent, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Yes. Your Majesty."

Since things have been decided, they will naturally no longer strongly oppose them.

As for whether they want to find some other reasons to object, Zhu Youxiao didn't care at all.

After Han and the other two left, Zhu Youxiao also left, and he went back to Queen Zhang's side.

It's afternoon soon, it's getting colder, so staying by the lake is not a good choice.

The matter did not spread, and several cabinet ministers did not release the news. The reason was very simple, and it was not time yet.

If there is any turmoil now, Your Majesty will definitely be dissatisfied. Let’s talk about it later, or after the New Year.

On the morning of that day, the rising sun brought some warmth to the capital that had been cold all night.

Many people started to move on the streets, and vendors began to shout and start business. The entire capital slowly woke up in the slightly warm morning light.

At the gate of the capital, a team of people had arrived here.

Everyone avoided their arrival.

Because these people are under the banner of Silijian, no one dares to offend Silijian people in this place.

There were many people watching curiously from a distance that the people from Silijian did not travel often, and they were not as popular as this.

Who is this person who still returns so arrogantly after leaving the city?

Many people don't understand.

Of course, there are also well-informed people who know that the people from Silijian who have recently left Beijing have all gone to Henan.

The story of King Fu also spread in the capital, obviously it was King Fu who entered the capital.

Sure enough, not long after, everyone saw King Fu's carriage and horse behind the Silijian team.

However, compared to what everyone imagined, the team is much smaller, and it is not as powerful as the royal family, and it looks very depressed.

In fact, those who know the inside story understand that it will be difficult for King Fu to leave this time if he enters Beijing.

Things in Henan Province now seem to have come to an end. King Fu was deprived of the throne and his family property was also confiscated.

Seeing this situation, everyone's statements are different, but the mainstream still thinks that Your Majesty is doing the right thing.

Civil officials had no good impression of the vassal kings because the vassal kings in various places were crazy about annexation of land.

This makes civil servants very annoyed, and the reason is very simple. It is not because civil servants think that the vassal kings do this wrongly, or think that doing this will harm the interests of the country, but because they should have done it themselves.

As a result, after the vassal kings were found, the vassal kings were allowed to do the annexation of land.

The benefits that should have fallen into my pocket are now in the hands of the vassal kings. How could the civil servants and the others be happy?

Many people with six senses even think that King Fu's entry into Beijing is a sign that the emperor wants to remediate the vassal kings. Everyone is paying attention to King Fu's convoy.

In a place where no one paid attention to it, Chen Qiyu sat in the carriage, gently carrying the curtain of the car.

Looking at the city gate of the capital in front of him, Chen Qiyu breathed a sigh of relief.

The last time I came to the capital, I was the imperial examination. Thinking about how I looked when I passed the imperial examination, and looking at myself now, Chen Qiyu actually felt that things changed.

However, things are getting better, which makes Chen Qiyu much happier.

The convoy soon entered the capital, and King Fu was reluctantly arranged to the clan mansion. After King Fu entered this time, he didn't know when the next time he came out.

As for King Fu's family, they were all placed in an orderly manner.

After doing all this, Wang An returned to the palace to report his life.

As for Chen Qiyu, he was naturally arranged to the inn early. He was just a fifth-rank county magistrate. In places like Beijing, there were really some people who couldn't get a seat.

Chen Qiyu was not in a hurry and waited quietly. Since Your Majesty asked him to be quiet, he had to make an arrangement.

In the West Garden.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Wang An, waved his hand gently and said, "Okay, please don't give me a gift."

After Wang An stood up, Zhu Youxiao continued to smile and said, "This time the errands in Henan were done well."

"I have just done my duty." Wang An hurriedly bowed and said.

Wang An knew that the emperor didn't like him, and his attitude towards him was not so kind before.

Because of this errand, the emperor had a much better sense of his senses, which made Wang An breathe a sigh of relief.

"Where was Chen Qiyu arranged?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Go back to the emperor and arranged it to be at the inn." Wang An said hurriedly.

"Let him go to the palace tomorrow." Zhu Youxiao thought for a while, and then instructed, "King Fu waited for a few days before talking about it, and I will meet him at that time."

"Yes, the emperor." Wang An quickly agreed again.

"Henan has high mountains and far waters. After so long, you are tired. Go back and rest." As he said that, Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and signaled Wang An to leave.

After Wang An left, Zhu Youxiao was relieved.

King Fu finally entered the capital, which means that everything was finally settled. Before King Fu entered the capital, he really didn't feel at ease.

There was nothing going on next, so Zhu Youxiao went back to rest.

During this period, Zhu Youxiao's mind was not on the government affairs, but on giving birth to children.

It is very important to ask Queen Zhang to give birth to a son for herself, so Zhu Youxiao devoted more energy.

After all, for the emperor, having a son and not having a son are different things.

Having a son means you have successors and the court is much more stable; but if you don’t have a son, there may be nothing in a short period of time, but it may not be necessary over time.

Inside the station.

Chen Qiyu also received news that His Majesty will see him tomorrow morning.

To be honest, this was a bit beyond Chen Qiyu's expectations.

Originally, Chen Qiyu thought that after he entered Beijing, the court would give him an explanation, which is probably a reward, that's all.

For example, send an official to yourself or arrange it to a certain yamen in the capital.

But unexpectedly, His Majesty wanted to see him in person, which made Chen Qiyu feel a little nervous. I wonder what His Majesty was going to do to him. Is it his own actions that angered His Majesty? Or would it satisfy His Majesty?

However, Chen Qiyu was still very happy that His Majesty wanted to see him.

After all, for so long, he felt that His Majesty was a courageous emperor. He wanted to meet such a king who could revive the Ming Dynasty.

I tossed and turned all night, and the next morning, Chen Qiyu got up early before dawn.

After a good washing, changing into the official uniform, and walking in the morning light, Chen Qiyu headed towards the West Garden.

After arriving at the gate of Xiyuan, Chen Qiyu found that Wang An had been waiting for him here, which made him feel relieved.

To be honest, Chen Qiyu knew a few people in the capital, but only Wang An was in the palace.

When they were in Henan Province, they felt pretty good when they chatted, and they were quite familiar with each other.

Chen Qiyu has a good impression of Wang An. He is a knowledgeable eunuch and a righteous eunuch. He is still willing to make more friends with such people.
