Chapter three hundred and eighty-eight of the terrible cronies
Concubine Liu looked at the two of them, smiled and nodded, and turned her eyes to Princess Xin again. Seeing that she was stooling and was about to give birth, she smiled and said, "It's very good, both are very good. Princess Xin will live in the palace in the future. After the confinement period, she will go back. If Princess Xin wants to come to Renshou Palace, she can come at any time..."
The harem cannot be entered and exited casually. Princess Xin looked at Zhu Youjian, who was stunned and looked at Zhu Xu again.
Zhu Xu waved his hand and smiled, "Whatever the concubine said is what she said."
Zhu Youjian thought about it and bowed and said, "Thank you, the emperor."
Concubine Liu smiled and looked at Zhu Xu and said, "Emperor, how did you reward the ministers this year? Don't be as stingy as last year. Our royal family must be generous!"
Zhu Xu coughed and said, "The Concubine is wronged by me. I am famous for being generous."
After saying that, he turned to look at Cao Huachun and said, "You go to send an order to order the imperial kitchen to cook. The Wenzhao Pavilion staff all gave me a dish of assorted jade plates, Sun Ge Lao gave me a palace duck, the Ministry of Revenue gave me a dish of wheat broad bean porridge with pearl jade white jade soup, the Ministry of Rites gave me a dish of 1st crocodile sugar, and the Ministry of Works gave me a dish of dragon beard noodles... I sent the internal supervisor of the Sili Supervisor to deliver it in person, the specifications should be high, and I should fully show my sincerity and gratitude..."
After listening to Zhu Xu's words, Empress Dowager Zhang frowned and frowned, and said to Concubine Liu: "Concubine, you can say this extra."
Concubine Liu was also confused by Zhu Xu's move, so she pointed at Zhu Xu and said angrily: "You, you suppress it... Forget it, I will save money for the court."
King Ping and others also laughed and apologized. The emperor personally gave the vegetables, which was more expensive than real money and silver.
Zhu Youjian also thought that Zhu Xu's move was very good, effective and saves.
After the New Year, congratulations from all over the Ming Dynasty and countries were also submitted to Beijing.
The Mo family in Korea, Liuqiu, Annan, and several Mongolian tribes. The most important thing is that Huang Taiji from Liaodong actually presented a congratulatory letter, calling himself a "member", and also brought a great gift of 20,000 taels of silver and 500 good horses.
There is still the joy of the New Year in the imperial study room.
Zhu Xu sat behind the desk, flipping through the congratulations everywhere, especially Huang Taiji's, with a smile on his lips.
Cao Huachun stood aside and said, "Your Majesty, according to my Ming etiquette, I will reward you."
The so-called "reward" is more direct, and this kind of return gift is often repeated several times.
Zhu Xu understood, pondered for a while, and said, "Dadays, Liuqiu will be given back according to the gift, and the value is equivalent. For Mongolians and Jiannu, forget it, and follow this gift in the future."
Cao Huachun was stunned and said, "Master, will this move undermine the majesty of the Ming Dynasty?"
If it weren't for the majesty, Zhu Xu wanted to cut it in half and waved his hand and said, "Majesty is not something that depends on giving gifts, tell the Ministry of Etiquette."
Cao Huachun knew that this move would definitely arouse opposition from the Ministry of Rites, so he could only pass on the decree and say, "Yes."
Zhu Xu continued to flip through the memorial again. Not long after, Liu Shimin walked in, held the plate, presented a stack of memorials, and said, "Your Majesty, the top one is from King Liu/Quan Shangfeng, about the coordinated defense."
Zhu Xu was stunned, then quickly took it over, and after looking at it, Zhu Xu nodded secretly and smiled at the corner of his mouth.
Liu/Qiu was indeed very interested, especially when he saw that the Ming Dynasty's navy had artillery and the Ming Dynasty had no intention of annexing Liu/Qiu, King Shangfeng was even more interested than the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Xu thought carefully and said, "Liu Shimin, you send this memorial to the Ministry of War, let them discuss it, come up with a plan, and then ask Shen Yongmao to go to Ryukyu in person, bring Yuan Keli and Xiong Wencan, negotiate with King Shangfeng, and conduct another maritime exercise, so that Liu/Qiu can see the strength of my Ming Dynasty's military appearance!"
"Abide by the order!" Liu Shimin said.
After Liu Shimin finished speaking, he said: "The following two are the memorials of the King of Korea/June and General Kim Zhongshen. They are also interested in coordinated defense and want to ask my Ming Dynasty to help train the army and defend Japan."
If we say which country trusts the Ming Dynasty the most, it is only North Korea/South Korea. The three major expeditions at that time showed the Ming Dynasty's determination to defend North Korea/South Korea, and the subsequent withdrawal also showed that the Ming Dynasty had no intention of annexing North Korea/South Korea. In addition, North Korea is still very vigilant about Japan and is worried that they will invade again.
Compared to Ryu-Quan's fear of pirates, North Korea has a stronger sense of crisis.
Zhu Xu hurriedly took it over. In addition to routine nonsense, the Korean King's memorial was an urgent expectation for coordinated defense.
Kim Zhongsun's memorial was simple and clear. He recalled his friendship with His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and then deeply appreciated the Ming Dynasty's help to the North and South Korea. He then said that General Qin Yiming was polite and honest in Ping/Rang and made great contributions to protect Ping/Rang.
Finally, we mentioned the coordinated defense proposed by the Ming Dynasty. North Korea and Korea are in great need. I hope the Ming Dynasty can help, so they can provide more than Liu Qiu.
Zhu Xu narrowed his eyes and stared at the three memoirs on the table. His eyes were shining with light, and his face was inexplicably expressed.
With these three memorials, the Ming Dynasty could mobilize, and even control the armies of these two countries, adding a great help, especially expanding the sea border, which allowed the activities of the North and South Navy to expand accordingly. This is of great significance to the navy that will be in the ocean in the future!
Zhu Xu pondered for a long time, looked up at Liu Shimin and said, "Same, let the military deployment be handled, Shen Yongmao goes to Liuqiu, Sun Chengzong goes to North Korea and Korea. The contract signing must be completed as soon as possible. Liuqiu needs to recruit at least 30,000 naval divisions, and North Korea needs to recruit at least 30,000 soldiers. Tell them that I am suffering from disaster in the Ming Dynasty. Let them give them a little more and will compensate them in the future."
Liu Shimin bowed and said, "Yes, I will go to the Ministry of War to issue an order."
Zhu Xugang nodded and added: "In this way, give 500,000 taels of silver to Korea and Liuqiu, and the silver will be saved! Give them some confidence, and also let them send officers to study in the two houses of the Ming Dynasty."
Liu Shimin glanced at Zhu Xu until he didn't continue, and said "Yes."
Zhu Xu continued to look at the memorial. There were no reports of disasters in the middle of winter. Most of them impeach and attack each other, and then talked about some big principles. They were all short sellers. They seemed reasonable, but they were unrealistic. They could either be unable to perform or there would be no results.
Wen Zhaoge's reduction of the yamen's memorial was also sent to the Silijian. Most of them wanted to cut down the departments in the capital, and very few involved local areas.
Zhu Xu shook his head when he saw it, but he still checked. The official position involved in the reduction of the government office has basically been emptied, and laying off means saving some salary.
There is no party struggle, no killing, and no big noise. This year's capital city is considered a rare peace.
Under the stability, it is the so-called "fullness and warmth" in the west of the Jingjing. The Censor Mao Yujian and the Ministry of Justice Liu Mao were drunk and hugged the girl who was unclothed in her arms. The flirting with dirty words and vulgar actions were completely different from the Qingliu Censor who was always high above.
Mao Yujian drank a glass of wine in the girl's white sou's hand, shook her head and said, "Pipa wine luminous cup, this capital is good..."
Liu Mao knew that this distant relative had lived a hard life as a county magistrate before, especially a fierce wife at home, who hugged the little girl and touched her. The thief smiled and said, "The sky is high and the emperor is far away. Don't worry about the fierce woman in your family. It's so free and easy here. In a few days, I will find a matchmaker to take a concubine for you so that you can't sleep in the empty bed at night..."
When Mao Yujian heard this, his eyes lit up and said, "Brother Liu, then I will thank you. You must be petite...ah haha..."
Liu Mao also looked like I understood and said, "It's easy to say, I'll have fun tonight..."
Mao Yujian also laughed and his hands flew.
On a winter night, brothels are as warm as spring, and ******* is endless.
The court's cuts eventually caused a storm.
Except for the fact that many institutions in the Nine Temples were merged and laid off, the most important thing was that the Kedao, the Thirteen Censors, and the Six Censors were all laid off or incorporated into the Governor's Council, and their power was deprived or weakened.
A group of censors Qingliu made a fuss about Wen Zhao Pavilion's explanation, and many people even wrote letters to impeach King Xin, demanding the removal and re-establishment of the cabinet.
However, Donglin and Qingliu senior executives had agreed on the matter of laying down the institutions and strongly supported King Xin. In the end, these people actually entrusted the relationship to Fu Changzong, and Fu Changzong could not refuse it.
Because this matter involves the emperor, Zhu Xu himself!
Among the Thirteen Censors, the "Jiangxi" Censors, Zhu Xusheng's mother, and an internal culprit beside Empress Xiaoren is a fellow villager. Although this internal culprit was severely detained because of the "Red Pill Case" that was involved in the "Red Pill Case", it was not useless. This internal culprit knew the old doctor who used tiger and wolf medicine to save Zhu Xu.
The old doctor had already left the palace and was in full swing, but he had no choice but to refuse, so he bit the bullet and found Fu Changzong.
At this moment, Fu Changzong faced Zhu Xu with a wry smile.
Chapter completed!
