Change is actually a very difficult thing for the Ming Dynasty, which is hard to come back from. The most fundamental reason lies in the ideology and official team, most of which come from the old school.

The vast majority of them are members of the ruling class. They or their clans enjoy privileges, control the means of production, and monopolize promotion channels.

Therefore, if you want to change, you must have the patience to see every drop of stone, and make subtle changes little by little. Only in this way can you gradually promote the reform.

canal.

The official ship of Prince Fu.

"Father, you said that the emperor issued a decree to summon the vassals to the capital. What was the purpose?"

Zhu Yousong looked worried, sat beside the bed, looked at the seasick Zhu Changxun, and said: "Those eunuchs in the inner court are really disgusting.

Even though my father is so weak, he still doesn't stop along the way. This is obviously deliberately making things difficult.

I heard that the official ship we are traveling on will soon arrive at Tianjin Sanwei. Then I will go to Han Zanzhou and ask him to stop and rest."

"I'm afraid it won't be that easy."

Zhu Changxun held back his nausea, frowned and said: "Perhaps Han Zanzhou is indeed a bit difficult, but after several exchanges, it is not difficult to see that Han Zanzhou attaches great importance to his time in Beijing.

If I guess correctly, the emperor summoned the vassals to the capital this time, and there must be some big event. Remember, all matters in the vassal territory are not allowed to be revealed.

Especially regarding the situation in Prince Fu's Mansion, even if the emperor personally inquires about it, he has to keep his mouth shut. It seems that the imperial court encountered difficulties, so the emperor summoned the vassals to the capital."

"Father, do you think they will be Jianlu from Liaodong or rogues from Shanxi?"

Zhu Yousong thought for a while and said with some worry: "If the imperial court cannot solve these rebellions, and the scale of their rebellion really increases, then our Huangming Foundation will..."

"These are not things we should worry about."

Zhu Changxun waved his hands weakly and said: "I know better than you what the virtues of the civil servants in the court are. The more they do, the more they make mistakes, and the more they say, the more they make mistakes.

Okay, you go see Han Zanzhou and tell me that I can no longer hold on any longer and have to stop in Tianjin to rest for two days, otherwise it will definitely not work for me to come to Beijing for an audience like this."

"Here!"

Zhu Yousong stood up quickly and bowed.

As the eldest son of Prince Fu, Zhu Yousong grew up with a golden spoon in his mouth. Even when he followed Prince Fu Zhu Changxun to Luoyang, he lived a life of fine clothing and fine food.

But this time he left Luoyang and rushed to the capital, but he suffered a lot of crimes. This situation seemed to make him very angry.

"The prince is here."

Han Zanzhou, who was resting in the cabin, saw Zhu Yousong coming in person. He stood up and saluted, and said with a smile, "I wonder why the prince came here in person?"

"Eunuch Han, my father is weak and requested to stop at Tianjin Sanwei to recuperate." Looking at Han Zanzhou who was smiling but not smiling, Zhu Yousong, who was standing with his hands behind his back, frowned.

"Your Majesty, there are no Tianjin Sanwei anymore, so we can't dock."

Han Zanzhou heard this and said with a smile: "I can only aggrieve His Highness Prince Fu. I have to endure it for a few more days. When I get to Tongzhou, I can rest."

"What do you mean?"

Zhu Yousong frowned and stepped forward: "The Three Guards of Tianjin were established by our Ming Dynasty. When will they disappear..."

"Your Majesty doesn't know yet."

Han Zanzhou was not angry, and smiled slightly and said: "The three guards of Tianjin have been abolished by the emperor's decree. Now it is Tianjin Zhili Prefecture. Jinmen is a little chaotic now.

If we stop at Tianjin Zhili Prefecture, we cannot guarantee that His Highness Prince Fu will be able to rest in Tianjin, so we ask for your forgiveness."

"you……"

Zhu Yousong glared at Han Zanzhou, but there was nothing he could do.

On this journey from Luoyang to Beijing, in Zhu Yousong's eyes, Han Zanzhou was like a knife held to his neck, holding on to his days as he rushed.

In fact, Zhu Yousong didn't know that Han Zanzhou was also feeling very bitter. He didn't want to rush back to Beijing in such a hurry, but looking at the finalized date for entering Beijing, it wasn't long.

If he had not brought the Fu clan back to the capital as scheduled, his life would have been in danger.

"Eunuch Han, there is no need to treat you so harshly."

Zhu Yousong suppressed her anger, forced out a smile, walked slowly towards Han Zanzhou, took out a luminous pearl, and put it into Han Zanzhou's hand.

When Han Zanzhou saw this, a flash of greed flashed in his eyes.

"Eunuch Han also knows that my father's health has always been bad." Zhu Yousong saw Han Zanzhou's expression, and he felt contempt in his heart, but he said: "I am stopping at Zhili Prefecture in Tianjin for two days to rest.

Only then can you enter the capital safely. If you fall ill when you arrive in the capital, then if your majesty summons you..."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, when we get to Tongzhou, there will be an imperial doctor waiting there."

Han Zanzhou smiled and said: "This is Tianjin Zhili Prefecture, it is better not to stop. Our family is also in a dilemma, but it is difficult to disobey the emperor's order.

There are still some things going on in our family, so we won’t leave any heir apparent.”

After saying that, Han Zanzhou suppressed the greed in his heart, turned around and walked towards the desk, pretending to pick up a map, and read it here.

He was not the only one who left Beijing this time. Many eunuchs from the inner court also came out. Those who were lucky may have arrived in Tongzhou with the clan.

"!!"

Seeing Han Zanzhou being so stubborn, Zhu Yousong clenched his fists, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes. He didn't know what it was that made Han Zanzhou dare not accept the priceless Night Pearl.

Being rejected by the eunuch Han Zanzhou one after another, Zhu Yousong lost face, snorted coldly, turned around and left with the night pearl.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not that our family doesn't want you."

Looking at Zhu Yousong's leaving figure, he pondered for a moment, and then Han Zanzhou muttered: "Our family is afraid that our lives will be taken and we won't have the lives to enjoy it, or our lives are more important."

Scenes like this are actually happening in many places.

Wang Dehua, Li Fengxiang and other eunuchs from the inner court endured greed and fatigue to escort the vassals they had summoned to gather towards Tongzhou.

This time I was ordered to leave Beijing, not to mention just to make money, I even made a lot of money in compensation. After all, for such an urgent trip, if there is no accident, I must give some money to the people below.

Han Zanzhou and other eunuchs in the inner court didn't know why their emperor behaved so harshly when summoning the vassal this time.

However, their intuition told them that things were definitely not simple.

Thinking of what they had gone through in the inner court before, none of Han Zanzhou and others dared to complain or be negligent.

After all, if you really offend the emperor, not only your life will be in danger, but your relatives will also be implicated. Although they are all members of the palace, they are not just jumping out of the cracks in the rocks. Such a fatal job,

I definitely want to end it as soon as possible.
