Chapter 42 The Emperor Roars
"Please restore the sixth rate of the East Palace!" These words were chewed in the mouth repeatedly, and some knowledgeable people had already faintly felt the smell of blood coming towards their faces.
Of course, there are not many people who can make this association. Most of them are the ceremonial supervisors Zhangyin and Bingbi who have gone to the inner study hall. Many of them are not much worse in knowledge than the candidates in the outer court. Several parties involved are standing
Among them, except for Wanli, everyone is basically in a state of confusion.
Needless to say, Queen Wang and Concubine Zheng were from small private households, so how much knowledge could they have? However, Zhu Changluo was basically semi-illiterate, and several of them had an appallingly low political sense. They did not connect this memorial with the throne at all.
Together.
In their impression, for such a major event, it is enough to have the support of the emperor and civil servants, and nothing else is needed.
The East Palace Liu Lv, also called the Prince's Liu Lv, was a military force personally commanded by the prince from the Qin and Han Dynasties to the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It can be said that the reason why the princes in history were able to rebel many times was because of the existence of this military force.
When the Song Dynasty was established, this force basically disappeared. Only when the Ming Dynasty was founded, because the prince had to go to the battlefield in person and face the cause of the war, there were some military guards, but the number was not large.
The name of this memorial was like a sledgehammer, hitting Wanli's heart hard, making him dizzy for a while and unable to see. When he recovered, an uncontrollable anger burst out,
He couldn't help but want to curse loudly.
However, when the words came to his lips, he was stopped by his reason. This is his grandson, the emperor's grandson, the future emperor, and his most promising successor. The situation cannot be allowed to escalate.
He opened his mouth and his original words turned into a roar: "Everyone else, get out of here!"
A huge roar roared and echoed in the hall, and Wanli's red eyes shot out with a terrifying and fierce light, causing everyone to tremble.
When the emperor was angry, millions of corpses were laid on the ground, with blood floating in the oars. Although Wanli had not yet been so honest, in his rage, thunder still descended on the world, which was extremely shocking.
After no one dared to delay, everyone bowed respectfully and filed out cautiously. Before going out, Zhu Changluo, who was walking at the end, looked back worriedly.
In the entire hall, only his son's lonely figure stood stubbornly. For some reason, at this moment, Zhu Changluo suddenly felt that this ten-year-old child had grown up and no longer needed to hold up a sky for him.
Thinking of this, his eyes moistened unconsciously.
"Guards on the left and right, anyone who dares to come within ten feet of the main hall will be killed without mercy!" Before the door was closed, Wanli's roar came from inside again, making the waiting guards tremble in fear.
Crunch!
The last crack in the door was tightly closed, and the entire palace fell into silence again, with only the quiet and profound scent of sandalwood floating. Under Wanli's rage, the atmosphere in the palace seemed extremely depressing, but Zhu Youxiao
But he didn't seem to feel anything. He still held his head high and looked at him without fear.
"Who is it? Who taught you this?" Wan Li held the desk with both hands, leaned forward, and asked angrily. Although Zhu Youxiao looked like a little adult, he didn't believe it.
This was something he could come up with on his own, and someone must be instigating it behind his back.
He couldn't think of what the person behind the plan was paying attention to, but he definitely had a heart that could be punished.
"Who is it?" Wan Li couldn't help roaring again, "Sun Chengzong, is it him? I will have him sent to prison and executed in Lingchi!"
After thinking about it, how could Taisun come up with this idea? There is no one else but Sun Chengzong who could have this insight. Thinking of this, Wanli's anger couldn't help but rise again. He felt that he had been deceived.
Betrayed.
"Here comes..." Wan Li shouted loudly and was about to issue an order to arrest Sun Chengzong. However, Zhu Youxiao's voice interrupted him.
Looking at the angry Wanli, Zhu Youxiao took a deep breath to calm down his violently beating heart. He looked very calm on the surface, but he was also frightened in his heart. This was the emperor, the real number one person in the world, the earth.
How could the rage of the most powerful person be something that ordinary people could withstand?
Fortunately, after arriving here, Zhu Youxiao has been in a high position every day, with no one under his control. He has been bossing around and issuing orders every day. He has also developed a trace of the aura of a superior, a gentleman's bearing, and with the support of coolies, he can endure it.
After he calmed down, he took a step forward and said loudly: "Grandpa Huang, can't this be the attention of the grandson himself? As the old saying goes, a scholar will look at each other with admiration after three days of separation, not to mention that it has been two years since his grandson. Why is the grandpa so close? The emperor
Grandpa, does he know that his grandson has grown up?"
"Fart! What do you know..." Wan Li was about to curse again, but unexpectedly saw Zhu Youxiao's eyes.
Black and white are clear, and the pure eyes are filled with a hint of pride that can see through the world. Although there is still a little fear deep in the eyes, it still cannot conceal the divine light full of wisdom.
Wanli didn't know what kind of experience made his grandson develop such eyes, but he knew that this was definitely not something that a ten-year-old child could have, even if the child looked already very tall.
Putting down the arms raised in anger, Wanli walked off the bed, dragged his fat body and walked up to Zhu Youxiao with a slight limp, and asked cautiously.
"Are these really your own thoughts?"
"It was really my grandson's idea."
"No one teaches?"
"No one teaches!"
Looking at his grandson with a determined expression, Wan Li was still a little skeptical. He still couldn't believe that Zhu Youxiao could think of these things when he was only ten years old. You know, even he himself gradually understood it after experiencing the incident of being deposed.
The emperor is supreme, but the emperor without real power is just a noble puppet.
Although the words "Donggong Sixu" are simple, they go right down to the core of the emperor's mentality, military power. Wanli may not have known that political power comes from the barrel of a gun, but he definitely realized it. These things were passed down orally by emperors of all dynasties.
The secrets of the palace, the art of governing people and military power.
"Well, if that's the case, then I'll test you." Wanli still couldn't believe it, and he decided to do some verification himself. "It has been more than two hundred years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Although there are many unworthy descendants and ridiculous emperors,
Wherever it goes, it is still passed down and prospered to this day.”
"Do you know the reason for this?" Looking at Zhu Youxiao, Wanli looked forward to it.
After hearing the whole question, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but laugh. These have been studied a lot in later generations. The reason why the court has been able to run smoothly for so many years is precisely because of the existence of the cabinet system. He replaced the emperor in handling government affairs and maintained
Bringing peace to the whole world.
And who can become a cabinet minister?
"Civil official!" Zhu Youxiao said his answer.
"Huh?" Wanli's eyes widened and he didn't seem to hear.
"Civil official!" Zhu Youxiao repeated his answer.
Wanli was really surprised now. He was already prepared. If these were really Zhu Youxiao's own attention, he would definitely hear a special answer. However, when the answer came out, he was still surprised.
He really didn't expect that his grandson would see things so clearly, and he himself would wake up after so many years of running into obstacles and being tired of political affairs. As long as there are still civil servants in the Ming Dynasty, the inheritance will not be cut off.
"Okay, okay!" Wan Li said excitedly, "Since you see things so clearly, I will test you again."
"Although the imperial court is said to be stable and peaceful, it is already full of ills. If you can really understand these, you will definitely feel them. Then I ask you, do you know the root cause of these ills."
Hearing this question, Zhu Youxiao's smile became even bigger. It is well known that the late Ming Dynasty was destroyed by party strife, and party strife originated in Wanli. There is no doubt that these ills were caused by party strife.
Who can participate in party struggle?
"Civil official!" Zhu Youxiao answered cheerfully. He did not expect that these two questions were so simple.
Looking at Wan Li's disbelieving expression, he seemed to vaguely grasp that his advantage in this era was not the information in his mind, nor the powerful body brought by time travel, but the accumulated experience that spanned thousands of years.
perspective on the problem.
Zhu Youxiao's answer once again exceeded Wanli's expectations, but based on his many years of experience in government, this answer can be applied to almost all problems. As long as we start from here, it seems that all problems can be solved easily.
Thinking of this, Wan Li suddenly felt a little unmotivated. He was so old, but a ten-year-old child didn't understand it. His life was really in vain.
"If I could have had courtiers like you when I was young, I would..." Wanli suddenly felt a little tired, and his body shook uncontrollably.
"Grandpa Huang, be careful." Zhu Youxiao had quick eyes and quick hands, and quickly stepped forward to support Wanli, then helped him sit back on the bed.
When passing by the memorial that fell on the ground, Wan Li lowered his head and took another look. The words "Donggong Sixth Rate" on the cover were so dazzling that the corners of his eyes twitched again.
"Alas!" After Wan Li responded, he let out a long sigh, then his face darkened, he stared closely at Zhu Youxiao in front of him, and asked: "You are the sixth leader of the East Palace, but you want to do something that you can't bear to say!
"
These words immediately startled Zhu Youxiao, and he almost jumped up in shock. He never expected that Wanli would ask such heart-wrenching words.
If he is an ordinary young genius with a high IQ but low emotional intelligence, he will definitely not be able to hide his true thoughts under this sudden attack of questions. Even as a time traveler, if he really has such a
I guess I can't hide my thoughts. After all, age is here. Putting all his past and present lives together, he is only in his thirties. He is far from the opponent of Wanli who has ruled the world for so long. There are some things that really take time to develop.
accumulated.
Fortunately, he didn't have this idea himself, so he didn't have to bother to hide anything, he just had to show his most authentic thoughts.
"call!"
