"Receiving Orders" Zhu Gaoxu raised his hands to receive the holy decree, stood up with the help of two small chamberlains, and said to the eunuch who passed the decree with a pleasant face: "It's been hard all the way, let's go and rest."
The eunuch bowed to the prince and said yes, accompanied by the prince's lieutenant Yiyi.
Waiting for the eunuch to leave, Zhu Gaoxu turned around, and his face was still dazed.
What jumped into his eyes was Yang Shiqi, who had just stood up, and Yang Shiqi was also at a loss.
After taking away the two small chamberlains, Yang Shiqi said: "Prince, the emperor ordered the ministers to discuss the relocation of the capital, doesn't the emperor plan to come back?"
Zhu Gaoxu smiled bitterly: "The emperor's actions are unpredictable, and even though I am the son of His Majesty, it is difficult to guess."
If you want to say that the emperor will stay in Yanjing for a long time, it may not be, but the emperor immediately issued an edict to discuss the relocation of the capital, and it seems that the decision has been made.
As for why the emperor didn't wait for him to come back and ordered the ministers to discuss first, I don't know. ” Zhu Di intends to move the capital, most of the close ministers around him have been aware of this, there are many clues, the court is a minister, and he serves the king, how can he not figure out what he means.
For example, after he ascended the throne, he immediately promoted Yanjing to Xingzai, sent important ministers like Qiu Fu to garrison Yanjing, sealed King Zhao in Yanjing, and sent ministers in the fourth year of Yongle to begin to expand the palace city of Yanjing.
After the death of his beloved queen, the Azusa Palace has been parked without burial.
The imperial court found the feng shui master Liao Junqing, and the emperor specified that he should go to the Yanjing area to find "auspicious soil", which showed that the emperor intended to move the capital to Yanjing, but no one expected the emperor's decision to come so quickly.
The Ming Dynasty has always had the idea of moving the capital, from Zhu Yuanzhang to Jinling, within a few years he was not very satisfied with Jinling, but the relocation of the capital is a major event, even with Zhu Yuanzhang's arbitrariness, he did not dare to make a rash decision.
He prepared for many years, and when the country was completely calmed down, he sent the crown prince Zhu Biao to inspect Chang'an, and the place where he wanted to set the capital was there.
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, and when Zhu Di ascended the throne, the discussion of moving the capital was once again spread inside and outside the court, even if it was just a discussion, there were courtiers who solemnly raised objections to the emperor.
Today, it has finally been clearly raised, and civil and military officials have to face up to this problem.
The reason for Zhu Di's decree was that a foreign officer named Li Xun from the Yanjing Department suggested that the emperor move the capital, and the emperor transferred this piece to Nanjing and ordered the ministers to discuss.
In fact, as long as it is a clear-eyed person, at a glance, he will know that this is a stone-throwing problem, and how big a matter it is to move the capital, a small member of the department dares to rashly write a book, even if he really dares to discuss this matter, the emperor attaches so much importance to it, and forwards this recital to Nanjing, and discusses it with hundreds of civil and military officials Obviously, this foreigner named Li Xun was instructed by someone, and it was unpredictable whether the person who instructed him was the emperor himself or Zhu Gaosui, the king of Zhao who was in Yanjing.
If this is the proposition of Zhu Gaosui, the king of Zhao, then it is obvious that Zhu Gaosui, who has grown up Chengren to sit firmly on the throne of the vassal king, has already coveted the position of the crown prince.
But whether this is the intention of King Zhao or the intention of the emperor himself, the emperor himself is also willing to move the capital, which is obvious.
Yang Shiqi asked: "Prince, what should I do with this edict?"
Zhu Gaochi said: "What else can I do to make the emperor's will clear to the ministers, and ask everyone to write a book to discuss." ” Yang Shiqi hurriedly said: "Prince, moving the capital is a big matter, and of course the ministers are also concerned, but the emperor does not return to Nanjing, but he sends an edict to order the ministers to discuss the relocation of the capital, and it is clear that he will not come back for a while.
Zhu Gaochi was actually more anxious than him, they had already made all kinds of arrangements under the help of the King of Han sending someone to assassinate Yang Xu, and they would launch it immediately when the emperor returned to Beijing.
Could it be that Ji Gang has not kept the truth of Yang Xu's assassination secret According to the plan, the vanguard of this "upside down" is Ji Gang's, and the East Factory is the second echelon, once Ji Gang is unwilling to do his best, the East Factory will jump out, so although the secret performance of the East Factory does not specify everything, but the secret performance not only explains the various things that have happened in Nanjing recently, but also implicitly points the target of suspicion at the King of Han, with the shrewdness of the emperor, An Neng is unaware.
Extrapolating from the time, this urgent performance should have arrived in Yanjing a long time ago, at least before the emperor's will was issued, why did the emperor ignore this and move to the country's major affairs, but it was not an urgent matter, what was the emperor thinking about doing this Zhu Gaochi was puzzled, so he had to ask Yang Shiqi to meet Yang Pu first, and the two discussed a proper method, first communicate with the cabinet, and try not to appear that the emperor's will came suddenly and seemed too hasty, so as not to cause unnecessary speculation by hundreds of officials.
Yang Shiqi and Yang Pu hurriedly discussed, and decided to say hello to the cabinet, and Ming said that he would first post the recital of Li Xun, a member of Yanjing, who was in Yanjing, on the palace newspaper, so that the hundred officials knew that there was such a voice in the court, and then announced the emperor's edict to the ministers.
Zhu Gaochi listened to the report, nodded in agreement, and Yang Shiqi hurried to the cabinet.
Here, Zhu Gaochi wanted to turn back to the apse and instructed the crown princess to go to the Fuguo Mansion in the name of condolences to Yang Xu and inform him of the emergency.
Because of the emperor's sudden move, their original overall plan had to be revised.
As soon as Zhu Gaochi was about to leave, Yi Yi came back and reported: "Prince, Chen Ying of the Metropolitan Procuratorate asks to see you" Zhu Gaochi was stunned when he heard this, no one came to ask to see him, but Chen Ying, this is even more unusual than the sun coming out of the west, the first staff member around King Han actually came to ask to see him.
Zhu Gaochi thought for a while, waved his hand and said: "If you don't see it, you will say that Lone is unwell, and if you want him to do anything, you can write to the Secretary of General Affairs."
As soon as Zhu Gaochi turned around, he suddenly turned back and called, "Wait, did he say something?"
B: "No." ” Zhu Gaochi thought for a while, and then asked: "Is he wearing an official uniform or a regular uniform?"
"Official uniform" Zhu Gaochi paced slowly on the hall and ordered: "Go, invite him in" B owes a debt, turns around and walks out.
After a while, Chen Ying was brought in, Chen Ying was dressed ceremoniously, and he came to the palace, and when he saw Zhu Gaochi standing there, he hurriedly bowed down and bowed: "Chen Ying, I have seen the prince."
Zhu Gaochi said: "Lord Chen, please get up, although Lone is in charge of the country, he is not a human king."
If there is no very important matter, it is not appropriate to meet in the official residence, I don't know if Lord Chen is here today, what is the important matter?"
"The old minister is having something important to do to play the prince" Chen Ying slowly stood up and said in a deep voice: "The food shortage in Yunnan endangers Annan, the prince is far-sighted, in order to help the people of Yunnan and solve the danger of Annan, he ordered to summon businessmen to accept it, which is a major event for the benefit of the country and the people, and it is also related to the success or failure of the war in Annan."
But because it is profitable, there are many powerful and dignitaries, either shirtless, or entrusting relatives to profit from it. ” Zhu Gaochi said movingly: "There is such a thing" Chen Ying said: "Yes, the prince, the governor, and many families have ordered their children to transport rice and salt, and if they are willing to transport rice to Yunnan to help the people, there is nothing."
But these people hated it, first they bought all the old rice and bad rice, and then mixed the rice with soil and sand, and when the grain arrived, they had to double it.
They should have had three buckets of rice for every time, but they asked for two and three leads, and they were insatiable and arrogant.
If the officials of the salt works do not agree, they will rely on their power and oppress them.
If there are powerless and powerful people and merchants who transport rice, they will suppress them in every possible way, and they are not allowed to exchange rice for salt, and then buy it at a low price, sell it, and make a profit from it For the prince, it is a policy to relieve the suffering of Yunnan and the danger of Annam, and for the prince, it is a wise decision of the prince to supervise the country.
When the old minister heard this, he was anxious, so he hurried to play the prince.
Such phenomena should be stopped in a timely manner.
The minister asked the prince to issue an order prohibiting officials and their families from transporting rice and selling salt, and competing with the people for profit.

However, there are those who bully and dominate the market, forcibly buy and sell, abuse power for personal gain, and coerce salt officials, and severely punish the ministers who do not lend their money, and at the same time write down the chapter of the emperor, the prince, please see, this is a copy of the chapter sent by the minister to the secretary of the government."
Chen Ying said, took out something from her sleeve, held it with both hands, and respectfully sent it to Zhu Gaochi.
Zhu Gaochi took it and opened it to take a look, and sure enough, it was written to the emperor, the content was not the same as what Fang Cai said to him, and the recital of the General Administration Department had to be passed by him before being sent to Yanjing, so it was impossible for this copy to be faked.
Chen Ying said respectfully: "In the Imperial Procuratorate, the minister also ordered the imperial envoy of Yunnan Province to strictly investigate the case, and selected a young and capable imperial envoy to focus on the governor of Yunnan, because the matter is very important, lest the performance is not very clear, and the prince's major affairs will be delayed, so the minister hurried to the prince to state, prince, you see, there are still some imperfections in the minister's doing, please instruct it, and the minister will correct it immediately." ” Looking at this situation, Chen Ying is really dedicated to the country, especially in this letter of the prince's strategy of opening a business to help Yunnan, it is very clear that this letter is sent to the emperor, if something really happens in Yunnan, and even if it affects the war situation in Annam, it can also be used to maximize the responsibility of the prince.
Zhu Gaochi looked at Chen Ying in surprise, this is the matter that the Supervision Yuan system is responsible for, and he really doesn't know at the moment, if this matter is not detected in time, it is difficult to ensure that there will be no big mess, at that time, he is the supervisor of the country, and this policy is from his hands, and it will become an indelible stain on his governance.
Chen Ying explained these situations in a timely manner, which was only good for him, not harmful.
But there are only benefits, the weasel gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, and it was actually a good intention, Zhu Gaochi glanced at Chen Ying steadily, and said slowly: "This matter is very important, and now the King of Han is also a prisoner, has Lord Chen reported this matter to him, does the King of Han have any thoughts on this?"
Chen Ying bowed and said: "The king of Han bravely crowns the three armies, and he should be a tiger general."
However, when it comes to economic and weft politics and managing state affairs, it is really not what King Han is good at.
What's more, summoning business and accepting the middle is the prince's decision, the prince is the prince of the country, although he is also the supervisor of the country, is it more appropriate to report to the prince for a decision. ” When Zhu Gaochi heard this, he finally understood Chen Ying's intention.
Chen Ying is throwing stones to ask for directions, intending to surrender.
The assassination of the Duke of Fuguo, the prince's faction made close preparations, wanting to cut off all the hopes of the Han king to compete for the crown prince in one fell swoop.
The king of Han is the prince, and it is easy not to kill himself, but if you want to pull out the big tree of the king of Han from the capital, you don't know how many branches will be blown off and how many roots will be broken.
Chen Ying, the old fox, actually smelled the danger Zhu Gaozhi was moved: Chen Ying is scheming, and he has the power of the official, this is the mouthpiece of the imperial court, and it is a force that can be used publicly on the table, which is an advantage that Jinyiwei and Dongchang are far from being able to match.
Now, as long as he makes a slight gesture, Chen Ying and the power that Chen Ying has in his hands can be this person, whether he can accept it or not To be continued:
