Chapter 10                                                             �

Zhu Qizhen had expected this incident and said, "Mr. Jian said it, right, I'll listen."

Mr. Jian held Zhu Qizhen's hand tremblingly. This hand was extremely shriveled, and the joints exploded one by one. It was extremely dark and thin, with old people spots on it. Compared with Zhu Qizhen's white and pink hands, it formed a sharp contrast. Looking at the old man's expression, it seemed that he had used all his strength, but Zhu Qizhen only felt a gentle grip, and it seemed that he could break free with just one stretch of his hand. He said: "I know that the Empress Dowager is a hero among the girls. The arrangement and difficulties of the Empress Dowager. The old man knows one or two, but the Empress Dowager is definitely not the Empress Lü and the other. The matter of Your Majesty's ascending the throne has been announced to the world. As long as Your Majesty is correct, no one in the world can shake Your Majesty's position. Even if you are close to the Empress Dowager, you will be willing to entertain your relatives in colorful clothes. As long as the two palaces are harmonious, the world will be blessed."

Seeing that even at this time, what Jian Gong was thinking about was still a major national event. For his own sake, Zhu Qizhen also understood in his heart why his grandfather and father valued Jian Gong so much. He couldn't help but ask, "What did Jian Gong think about King Xiang?"

This incident is the knot between Zhu Qizhen and the Empress Dowager.

Even though the Empress Dowager said that she wanted to take the Jincai of King Xiang as a prince, and she had no other intentions, but did Zhu Qizhen believe it?

Believe it or not, he just has to believe it in the current situation.

"Your Majesty should think that there are some things you don't know." Jian Gong coughed twice and said, "Your Majesty just remember that Your Majesty is the emperor now. There is no need to think about some details."

Although Zhu Qizhen tried his best to maintain his facial expression, Jian Gong still saw the clues.

"This is all a meticulous matter." Jian Gong emphasized, saying, "Your Majesty is the king of a country. As long as you wait patiently, the world will belong to Your Majesty one day."

"Did I do nothing?" Zhu Qizhen said.

After ascending the throne and becoming emperor, Zhu Qizhen had countless things to do in his mind. He wanted to organize military affairs, he wanted to clean up the administration of officials, he should transport the grain for sea transportation, he wanted to set up a province in Liaodong, and forever blame the Jurchens for the troubles, etc.

From the perspective of the future, there are so many things to do in this era.

"Yes." Jian Gong said: "Do it more and do it less and make it less and not do it well. As long as Your Majesty does not make mistakes and practices morality diligently, he will naturally do what he can do in the world after one day of taking charge of the rule."

"Before this, don't do anything, just be a filial son."

Zhu Qizhen understood what Jian Gong thought. As long as he did nothing, he served the Empress Dowager Zhang peacefully. As long as Zhang protected him, no one in the world could threaten Zhu Qizhen's position.

After all, the Empress Dowager is old and how many years can she live? The Empress Dowager does not have to be as young as Jian Gong.

Time is ruthless, and the rain always blows the wind.

Xia Yuanji, Xie Jin, Jian Yi, San Yang, and even Emperor Renzong had little difference in age, and could be said to be people of the same era.

Moreover, time is ruthless, Xie Jin died in a bad life, and Xia Yuanji had already died in the fifth year of Xuande. Jian Yi was as famous as him, and I am afraid he would not be able to pass this level now.

How many years can San Yang, the Empress Dowager, last?

Age is Zhu Qizhen's biggest advantage.

It was just that such a frustrating waiting was not what Zhu Qizhen wanted. He said, "Does Mr. Jian have any arrangements for his children? Can I make some arrangements for Mr. Jian?"

"No need to do this." After hearing Zhu Qizhen's words, Jian Gong immediately felt Zhu Qizhen's reluctance. He sighed slightly in his heart and said more. He said: "My remaining is enough, and his descendants are not good enough to make a living, and he will not have to worry about it."

Mr. Jian seemed a little tired, leaning against the bedding, looking like he was sleeping. Zhu Qizhen cried out lightly and said, "Mr. Jian, Mr. Jian."

Suddenly, Jian Gong's hand fell from Zhu Qizhen's wrist on the brocade quilt.

Wang Zhen, who had been standing behind Jian Gong, immediately stepped forward and looked at him carefully. He said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Jian is gone."

When Mr. Jian left, he was one of the few ministers who joined the officialdom during the Hongwu period. His departure meant that the Hongwu period had gone far away and slowly condensed into history. Zhu Qizhen was not good for him to stay in Mr. Jian's mansion for a long time. After all, there was an emperor here, so it was difficult to arrange for Mr. Jian's funeral.

Jian Gong’s children were prepared long ago.

After all, the old man is old.

Amid the sarcasm, Zhu Qizhen left Jian Gong.

The cabinet quickly gave a title, a gift from Jian Gong, a gift from Guanglu Dafu, a Taishi, and a posthumous title from Zhongding.

Jian Yi's death did not seem very eye-catching in the midst of national mourning. After all, because of the departure of the Emperor Daxing, the entire capital was in white.

On the way back to the palace, Zhu Qizhen fell into deep thought.

His Majesty Zhu Qizhen thought about Jian Yi's opinion seriously and thought it was actually very reasonable. Following this path, he would definitely be able to successfully reach the day of taking power.

By then, no one can ruin him even if something happens.

But Zhu Qizhen still felt a little unwilling to accept it.

However, another thing made Zhu Qizhen even more uneasy.

Jian Yi and Xia Yuanji are as famous as Xia Yuanji. They are both old ministers during the Yongle period. Now one has passed away in the fifth year of Xuande and the other has passed away in the tenth year of Xuande.

Compared with him, San Yang may be a little younger, but he is also an old man.

How long can they last?

Even Zhang Fu was not the young talent who replaced the chief general to conquer Annan. That was more than 30 years ago. Zhang Fu was still young among the heroes of the Jingnan Dynasty.

But even so, Zhang Fu is old.

This group of ministers rose up in the late Hongwu, Jianwen and early Yongle years, which supported the ups and downs of the Ming Dynasty for more than 30 years, and it was time to end one by one.

Just take over their ministers, where is it?

For a moment, four words appeared in Zhu Qizhen's mind: "There is no response to the green and yellow."

There is a strange phenomenon in history. It seems that talents do not appear individually, but appear in batches. Just like the current Hongxuan Auxiliary Group.

The Three Yangs were also a top talent in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Qizhen suddenly thought of a name in his mind, which was Yu Qian.

He vaguely remembered the Tumu Fort Incident more than ten years later, Yu Qian was the Minister of War at that time, but he didn't know where Yu Qian was now.

However, this matter is not too urgent.

You can only pay attention to it in secret.

Zhu Qizhen had already adapted to the emperor's identity without realizing it.

After returning, someone immediately reported that the Empress Dowager had sent people to ask about His Majesty's whereabouts several times.

Zhu Qizhen naturally knew that her mother was in a bad mood recently, probably because she was his son, who was close to the Empress Dowager and became much distant from her.

You must know that Zhu Qizhen had been by Sun's side before.

Before, when Emperor Xuanzong was present, Sun could still have his own power in the palace with the favor of Emperor Xuanzong. However, once Emperor Xuanzong left, inside and outside the palace, he had long been scrambled by the Empress Dowager like iron stone.

No matter who it is, as long as there is a slight change, they will be executed on the spot.

Within less than ten days after Emperor Xuanzong passed away and Zhu Qizhen ascended the throne, many people disappeared silently in the palace.

It’s not that the Empress Dowager is specialized in dealing with Sun’s family.

But in extraordinary times, it is better to be more harsh than to indulge.

However, Sun was worried that these things were signs that the Empress Dowager had to deal with her. At this moment, her only support was Zhu Qizhen.

It’s not that Zhu Qizhen avoided her, but during the mourning period, Zhu Qizhen, as the emperor, had too many etiquettes to show up.

He also wanted to be with the Empress Dowager for the rest of the matter, just to follow the Empress Dowager's heart.

But now the 27-day filial piety period is almost over.

Zhu Qizhen has time to go see his mother.

Zhu Qizhen looked at the sky and found that it was still some time, so he directly asked Wang Zhen to lead the way to Kunning Palace. Zhu Qizhen rested in the side hall of the Ganqing Palace during this period.

So as long as you pass Jiaotai Hall, it is Kunning Palace.

Before Zhu Qizhen arrived, someone passed the news that he was coming to the Empress Dowager Sun. The Empress Dowager Sun sent a confidant to greet him. After introducing Zhu Qizhen into the palace, Sun no longer cared about anything else. He hugged Zhu Qizhen, almost rubbed Zhu Qizhen into his body, and said, "My son------"
