The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Yan Chengjin knew that Kong Xiang was a huge blow to Emperor Hongzhi.

On the way to Qianqing Palace, he began to deduce and calculate the possible reasons why Emperor Hongzhi became what he is today.

First, Emperor Hongzhi had been working diligently for twelve years and was tired.

This point is closely consistent with historical data.

According to historical records, around the 12th year of Hongzhi, Emperor Hongzhi began to stop going to court, enjoy a luxurious life, and believe in monkhood. This is one of the reasons why the Hongzhi Zhongxing gradually turned from prosperity to decline in history.

Emperor Hongzhi is also a human being. He has restrained himself for twelve years and is beyond ordinary people. What's more, he sits on the throne of splendor and wealth, and it is inevitable that he will be corrupted by power.

Secondly, the failure of the capital camp was such a blow that Emperor Hongzhi felt extremely guilty, but the world gave him the name of a virtuous king. The higher he lifted, the more painful he fell, making him question whether he was a virtuous king.

Third, they feel that there is no difference between working hard and not working hard, so they give up treatment.

Today's shortcomings in the capital make him feel that his efforts have failed, and Ming Dynasty is still the corrupt Ming Dynasty.

Fourth, they are confused about the future and do not know how to govern the Ming Dynasty in the future.

Even though he worked hard and tried his best, he still failed to manage the Ming Dynasty well. Emperor Hongzhi had no clue.

This time, His Majesty was deeply hurt.

"Your Majesty is naturally a wise king."

"You are an extremely cautious guy. Can I believe what you say?"

"The minister resigned."

"I didn't let you go!" Emperor Hongzhi said calmly: "Has anyone impeached me recently?"

"No."

Emperor Hongzhi slowly closed his eyes, and Yan Chengjin exited the hall. Emperor Hongzhi did not stop him.

When Empress Zhang saw Yan Chengjin coming out, she hurriedly asked: "The matter in the capital camp has been thoroughly investigated, why is Your Majesty still doing this?"

"Although the incident in Jingying has been thoroughly investigated, there are many reasons that were not caused by the Kongxiang case, and I can't explain it clearly."

Emperor Hongzhi must be depressed. Where can he find a psychiatrist these days?

I'm afraid ordinary psychiatrists can't cure Emperor Hongzhi's illness.

The intensity of this blow was the same as being suddenly told that someone had been cuckolded for twelve years.

Liu Jian and other ministers knelt down together outside the Qianqing Palace and shouted: "I will reflect with His Majesty."

"Everyone, please step aside. I just want to be alone, and no one should disturb me."

Emperor Hongzhi's light voice came from the bedroom.

Yan Chengjin said: "I have an idea, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?"

Hope ignited in the eyes of Li Dongyang, Liu Jian and others. This kid always had some ideas, and they hoped that he would be able to surprise him this time.

Queen Zhang asked sincerely: "What do the Yan Qing family want to do?"

Yan Chengjin bowed and saluted: "I am 40% sure."

I'm 80% sure, but I can't be too confident. Even if it doesn't work out, Queen Zhang, Li Dongyang and others won't be too disappointed.

"This method is too bold. I have the courage to ask the queen for permission. I advise your majesty not to blame me afterwards. I also ask Lord Li to order all officials not to impeach subordinate officials afterwards."

Everyone looked strange.

What is the method to get to this point?

Empress Zhang was anxious: "The Yan Qing family can go ahead and do it."

Yan Chengjin had a troubled look on his face: "My lord...can you ask the empress and Mr. Li for a document first?"

Queen Zhang: "???"

Li Dongyang explained: "This son treats His Majesty the same way on weekdays. Don't blame me, Madam."

Li Dongyang looked solemn: "I will never break my promise."

"Then let me begin. This method requires His Highness the Crown Prince."

Prince?

The minister suddenly remembered, where has the prince gone? No one was seen for three days.

Yan Chengjin knew that Zhu Houzhao was a powerful general in the Beijing camp.

Queen Zhang ordered Xiao Jing to go to the Beijing camp to invite Zhu Houzhao back to the palace.

Two hours later, Xiao Jing rushed back.

Zhu Houzhao refused to obey the order, and asked Xiao Jing to bring back the oral instructions: "His Royal Highness said that he will train the capital camp, attack the Tartars in one month, kill Dayan Khan, and share your Majesty's worries."

Empress Zhang's beauty turned pale, and her eyebrows were twisted together in anger.

Li Dongyang and others sighed.

Yan Chengjin took a step forward and said, "I'll let you find the prince."

After leaving the palace, Yan Chengjin got on the sedan chair.

Two hours later, we arrived at the school grounds outside the city.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao ordered the 12th regiment battalion to practice horse steps and had a great time.

Seeing Yan Chengjin coming, he rushed over happily: "Old Gao, I will go to the grassland in one month. How about you being my dog-headed military advisor?"

Who do you look down on?

Yan Chengjin rolled his eyes: "Your Majesty ignores court affairs and please return to the palace immediately to take charge of the overall situation."

Xiao Jing was here just now. Why should he go back to treat his father?

Zhu Houzhao blinked: "I don't want to cure my father. My father grew up to study for me, and now I have finally made me a mighty general. I like this kind of father."

Zhu Houzhao, are you still a human being?

Your Majesty, I suggest you give birth to another child...

Complaints are complaints. Yan Chengjin thought carefully and said, "If His Majesty really ignores the affairs of the court, who will take care of the affairs of the court in the future?"

"I?"

Zhu Houzhao woke up suddenly as if from a dream. He was not a fool. If his father didn't work, why shouldn't he do it?

He doesn't want to work.

"Lao Gao, what should I do? I don't want to be the emperor!"

Yan Chengjin sneered, "You can do it if you don't want to, but you don't have a brother."

"Your Highness is the only one who can make His Majesty change his mind. If Your Highness goes back with me, I have at least 70% chance of letting His Majesty take care of the court affairs again, so that Your Highness won't have to work."

"I'll go back with you!"

"As long as Your Highness understands."

Yan Chengjin was about to get on the sedan chair, but Zhu Houzhao thought it was too slow, so he grabbed Yan Chengjin and threw him on the horse's back, jumped on the horse, and galloped all the way back to Beijing.

When they arrived at the gate of the Forbidden City, Yan Chengjin's stomach churned.

"Old Gao, have you finished vomiting?"

Yan Chengjin held the dismounting stone and retched for a long time. He felt dizzy. After he felt a little better, he followed Zhu Houzhao to run to the Qianqing Palace.

"Your Highness is back." Xiao Jing announced the good news.

Empress Zhang, Li Dongyang and others looked up and saw Yan Chengjin and Zhu Houzhao trotting towards the Qianqing Palace.

Li Dongyang looked at Yan Chengjin: "How do you want Your Highness to persuade? Let us consider it."

Yan Chengjin shook his head: "It's not persuasion, it's scolding. The Crown Prince scolds His Majesty as he usually does today. Just do it at your normal level."

The ministers were in an uproar!

Liu Jian stared: "Nonsense, is this what you said?"

You have persuaded for three days and three nights, and Xie Qian has talked his mouth dry, but it's still useless?

Your Majesty is like a stagnant pool of water now, and you need some stimulation.

Yan Chengjin looked at Empress Zhang for help: "Besides this, I really can't think of any other way."

A flash of determination flashed across Empress Zhang's phoenix eyes: "Let Yan Qingjia try."

Yan Chengjin and Zhu Houzhao walked into the bedroom lightly.

Zhu Houzhao was usually very aggressive, but today he was asked to scold without restraint, and he was a little nervous: "Old Gao, my father will not beat me to death, right?"
