"Submit's order"

Zhu Gaoxu received the imperial edict with his hands raised high, stood up with the support of two young eunuchs, and said kindly to the eunuch who passed the edict: "It's been a hard journey, and go to rest to win q coins," the eunuch bowed to the prince. The voice is, accompanied by Yiyi, the official of the prince's mansion.

When the eunuch who delivered the decree left, Zhu Gaoxu turned around, and with a dazed expression on his face, he jumped into his eyes. It was Yang Shiqi who had just stood up, and Yang Shiqi also walked away with a dazed expression. Insider, Yang Shiqi said: "Prince, the emperor ordered the ministers to discuss the relocation of the capital? Is the emperor not planning to come back?"

Zhu Gaoxu smiled bitterly and said: "The emperor's actions are unpredictable. Although I am the son of your majesty, it is hard to guess. It may not be true that the emperor will stay in Beijing forever, but... the emperor ordered to discuss the relocation of the capital. It seems that the decision has been made. As for the emperor I don't understand why I didn't wait to come back and order the ministers to discuss first."

Zhu Di intends to move the capital, and most of the close officials around him have already noticed this. There are many clues. As a minister in the court, he serves the king, so how can we not figure out what he means?

For example, immediately after he ascended the throne, he promoted Beijing to the rank of the king, sent important ministers like Qiu Fu to garrison Beijing, and enshrined King Zhao in Beijing. In the fourth year of Yongle, he sent ministers to start expanding the palace city of Beijing. Over the years, the population has been continuously migrating to the vicinity of Beijing. The mausoleum of Duke Zhu Neng was built in Beijing. After his beloved queen passed away, the Zi Palace has been parked and not buried.

All these performances show that the emperor intends to move the capital to Beijing, but no one expected the emperor's decision to come so quickly

The Ming Dynasty has always discussed moving the capital. Since Zhu Yuanzhang established Jinling as his capital, he has been dissatisfied with Jinling within a few years. However, moving is a major event. Even with Zhu Yuanzhang's arbitrariness, he dare not make a rash decision. He has been preparing for many years. , and waited until the country was completely calmed down, then he sent Prince Zhu Biao to inspect Chang'an, where his preferred capital was.

As a result, Zhu Biao died of illness not long after returning from Chang'an. Zhu Yuanzhang was already old, and the emperor's grandson was young, so the proposal to move the capital was shelved again. Inside and outside the court, even if it was just a rumor, some courtiers solemnly raised objections to the emperor.

Today, it was finally brought up clearly, and all civil and military officials had to face up to this problem. When I came to Nanjing, I ordered the ministers to discuss

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye will know at a glance that this is a matter of throwing stones. How big a deal is it? How dare a small staff member, Wailang, dare to rashly discuss this matter?Even if he really dared, would the emperor attach so much importance to forwarding this memorial to Nanjing for discussion among civil and military officials?

Obviously, this Yuanwailang named Li Xun was ordered by someone. Whether the person who ordered him was the emperor himself or Zhu Gaosui, the King of Zhao in Beijing, is unpredictable. If this is the claim of King Zhu Gaosui of Zhao, then obviously, Zhu Gaosui, who has grown up and firmly secured the position of vassal king, has already coveted the position of crown prince

But no matter whether this is the meaning of Zhao Wang or the emperor himself, the emperor himself is willing to move the capital, this is obvious

Yang Shiqi asked: "Prince, what should I do with this edict?"

Zhu Gaochi said: "What else can I do? Declare the emperor's decree to all the ministers and ask everyone to discuss it."

Yang Shiqi said anxiously: "Prince, moving the capital is a big matter. Of course, the minister is also concerned about it, but the emperor will not return to Nanjing, but he sent an edict ordering the ministers to discuss moving the capital. It is obvious that he will not return for a while. What about Nanjing? What about the two envoys who are at odds with each other? The King of Han has the power to oversee the country in his hands, who knows he won't do anything else?"

Zhu Gaochi was actually more anxious than he was. They took advantage of the fact that the King of Han sent people to assassinate Yang Xu, and they had already made various arrangements, and they would launch it immediately when the emperor returned to Beijing. Unexpectedly, the emperor suddenly made such a decree and beat them all at once. Could it be that... Ji Gang hasn't reported the truth about Yang Xu's assassination to the emperor?

No way, even if Ji Gang concealed it, Dongchang’s secret performance was reported earlier. According to the plan, Ji Gang’s vanguard of the “Falling Xu” is Ji Gang’s, and Dongchang is the second echelon. Once Ji Gang refuses to do his best, Dongchang will jump Therefore, although the secret melody of Dongchang did not specify everything, it not only explained all kinds of things that happened in Nanjing recently, but also implicitly pointed the suspicion target at the king of Han.

Calculating based on the time, this rush should have arrived in Beijing long ago, at least it should have arrived in Beijing before the emperor's decree was issued. Why did the emperor turn a deaf ear to this?Relocation is a major event for the country, but it is not something that cannot be waited for. What is the emperor thinking when he does this?

Zhu Gaochi couldn't figure it out, so he asked Yang Shiqi to meet Yang Pu first, and the two discussed a proper way to discuss with the cabinet first. unnecessary guesswork

Yang Shiqi and Yang Pu had a hasty discussion, and decided to say hello to the cabinet. Tomorrow, they would first post the memorial of Li Xun, a foreigner in Beijing, in the residence newspaper, so that all officials would know that there was such a voice in the court, and then post the memorial to the cabinet. The emperor's edict and ministers

After hearing the report, Zhu Gaochi nodded and agreed, Yang Shiqi hurried to the cabinet, Zhu Gaochi wanted to turn back to the apse, and instructed the princess to go to Fuguo's mansion in the name of condolences to Yang Xu, and inform him of the emergency because the emperor With this sudden move, their original overall plan had to be revised.

Just as Zhu Gaochi was about to leave, Yiyi came back and reported: "Prince, Chen Ying from the Metropolitan Procuratorate is asking to see you."

Zhu Gaochi was stunned when he heard this, he didn't think it was unusual for anyone to ask to see him, but Chen Ying..., this is even more strange than the sun coming out from the west, the first staff member beside the King of Han came to beg to see him

Zhu Gaochi thought for a while, then waved his hands and said: "If you don't see me, you will say that you are not feeling well alone. If you want him to do anything, you can go to the Secretary of General Administration."

As soon as Zhu Gaochi turned around, he suddenly turned back and called out, "Did he ever say what it was?"

B said: "No"

Zhu Gaochi thought for a while, and then asked: "Is he wearing official uniform or ordinary uniform?"

"official uniform"

Zhu Gaochi took a few steps slowly in the hall, and ordered: "Go, invite him in."

As soon as B owed his body, he turned around and walked out for a while, then led Chen Ying in. Chen Ying was wearing a crown and leather belt, dressed solemnly, and went up to the hall. Seeing Zhu Gaochi standing there, he quickly bowed down and bowed down: "Mr. Prince"

Zhu Gaochi said: "Mr. Chen please come up. Although I am in charge of the country, I am not a king. If there is no very important matter, it is not suitable to meet in the official residence. I wonder if Mr. Chen is here today, what is the important matter?"

"The old minister has something important to report to the prince"

Chen Ying stood up slowly, and said in a deep voice: "The food shortage in Yunnan endangers Annan. The crown prince has a far-sighted vision to help the people of Yunnan and relieve the crisis in Annan. He ordered merchants to be recruited. This is a major event that benefits the country and the people. It is related to the success or failure of the Annan war, but because it is profitable, there are many dignitaries who either go into battle naked or entrust their relatives to profit from it."

Zhu Gaochi was moved and said: "There is such a thing?"

Chen Ying said: "Yes, dukes, governors... Many families order their children to transport rice and salt. If they want to transport rice to Yunnan to help the common people, there is nothing to hate about these people. First, they buy all the old rice. , waste rice, and mix soil and sand into the rice, and when the grain arrives, it will be doubled

They were supposed to ask for two quotations and three quotations for every rice that was supposed to be quoted. They were insatiable and surly. Suppressing them in every way, not allowing them to exchange rice for salt, then buy them at a low price, resell them, and profit from them, is it tolerable or unbearable

For the prince, such as Shang Zhong Na, for the imperial court, it is a policy to relieve the suffering of Yunnan and the crisis of Annan. ?Once this arouses public resentment, I am afraid that the old officials of Daluanzi will hear about it, and they will be very anxious, so they rush to report to the prince.

These phenomena should be stopped in time, and the prince should be asked to order that officials and their families be prohibited from transporting rice and selling salt, and competing for profits with the people. Write down this matter in a memorial and report it to the emperor at the same time, please see the prince, this is a copy of the memorial sent to the Secretary of the General Administration"

After Chen Ying finished speaking, she took out something from her sleeve, held it up with both hands, and sent it to Zhu Gaochi respectfully. Zhu Gaochi took it over and opened it for a look. It was indeed a memorial to the emperor, and the content was exactly the same as what he had just said to him. The writing is good, and the memorial of the Secretary of the General Administration has to be reviewed by him before being sent to Beijing, so this copy is absolutely impossible to be a fake

Chen Ying said respectfully again: "In the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the ministers also ordered the Yunnan Dao imperial envoys to investigate the case strictly, and selected young and capable imperial envoys to focus on inspecting Yunnan. Because the matter is of great importance, I am afraid that the memorandum will be unclear and delay the crown prince. Therefore, I rushed to report to the crown prince, prince, you see, if there is any imperfection, please give instructions, and I will correct it immediately.”

Looking at the situation, Chen Ying is really dedicated to serving the country, especially in this memorial, it is very clear how important the prince's strategy of opening up a business to benefit Yunnan is, and this memorial is sent to the emperor. If something really happened to Bian, even if it caused Annan's war situation, he would be able to clear up the prince's responsibility to the greatest extent.

Zhu Gaochi looked at Chen Ying in surprise. This is something that the Overwatch Council system is responsible for. Right now, he really doesn't know. China, this policy is from his hands, it has become an indelible stain on his governance

Chen Ying clarified these situations in time, there are only advantages for him, there are no disadvantages but there are only advantages... The weasel's New Year greetings to Ji are actually kind?Zhu Gaochi took a fixed look at Chen Ying, and said slowly: "This matter has a lot to do with it. Now... the King of Han is also the supervisor of the country. Did Mr. Chen report this matter to him? Does the King of Han think about it?"

Chen Ying leaned forward and said: "The king of the Han Dynasty won the three armies bravely, but he was a tiger general in the dynasty. When it comes to governing the country and managing state affairs, it is not the head of the Han king. What's more, calling merchants to recruit is the decision of the prince. The prince is the heir of the country. We are both in charge of the country, so it’s better to report to the prince for a decision on military and national affairs.”

Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi finally understood why Chen Ying came here.

Duke Fu was assassinated, so the prince faction took this opportunity to make intensive preparations, hoping to destroy all the king of Han's fight for heir. However, he hoped that the king of Han was the prince, so he would not be killed easily, but if he wanted to pull the big tree of King Han from the capital, he would not know what would happen. How many branches have been blown off, how many roots have been pulled out, the old fox Chen Ying has smelled danger...

Zhu Gaochi's heart was pounding: Chen Ying was scheming and mastered the power of officials. This is the mouthpiece of the imperial court, and it is a power that can be used publicly on the stage. This is an advantage that Jinyiwei and Dongchang are far from comparable to. Now only With a little gesture, the power Chen Ying and Chen Ying possessed can...
