Chapter 1515 Zhu Zaiyu

On August 12, the tenth year of Jiajing, King Xu Jin of Beijing led his troops to the west of Beijing. However, surprisingly, Jiajing did not go out of the city to welcome him in person this time, but instead appointed the cabinet chief Liao Ji and the third auxiliary Wu Wending to lead all civil and military officials to welcome him. This specification is definitely not low, and the etiquette is also quite grand.

By the way, Liao Ji is no longer young, and he is seventy and fifteen years old this year, and his hair is all white. However, he looks calm at this moment. He is wearing a robe and together with Wu Wending, standing solemnly before a group of civil and military officials, staring at the gradually approaching General General of the Conquest.

But under the handsome flag flies in the wind, a handsome and elegant scholar was standing high on the horse's back, with a calm smile on his face, which was exactly Xu Jin, the King of Beijing.

Liao Ji and Wu Wending flapped the sleeves of their official robe, stepped forward three steps and bowed their hands as a tribute, and shouted: "I have been ordered by the emperor and are here to wait for Prince Beijing to return to the court. Congratulations to the prince for his victory and triumphant success."

"Congratulations to the prince for his victory and triumphant success!" The civil and military officials shouted in unison.

Xu Jin quickly got out of the saddle and bowed his hand to return the gift, and said with a look of spring breeze: "I thank the Lord for your kindness, thank you for your colleagues, thank you for your hard work, Master Liao and Master Wu."

Liao Ji was not very good at dealing with Xu Jin, but since Xu Jin cleared the eunuch party and the upstart faction and the court was clear and clear, Master Liao's view of Xu Jin has improved a lot. At this time, he actually smiled politely: "Compared to Prince Beijing's battle for the country, what is it that we can go out of the city to greet each other? How can we say that hard work? The real hard work is Prince Beijing and all the soldiers."

Wu Wending also stroked his beard and nodded, "What Master Liao said is very good. Prince Beijing and all the soldiers have worked hard and made great contributions. What is the point of us going out of the city to greet each other?"

Liao Ji and Wu Wending were both upright people. At this moment, Xu Jin was naturally very happy to be able to say these words of praise in public. After a few greetings, they entered the city. The officers and soldiers of each battalion returned to the camp, and the wine and meat that rewarded the three armies had already been delivered to the camp.

Let’s talk about Xu Jin entering the city surrounded by all officials and first went to the Ministry of War to return the seal. After completing the procedures, Xu Jin couldn’t help but ask: “Sir Wu, what are the emperor busy with recently?”

Based on Xu Jin's understanding of Jiajing, if it weren't for something that could not be pulled away, it would be unlikely that he would not have left the city to greet him today!

Wu Wending is still the Minister of War. He frowned and said, "I am just about to tell the prince about this. The emperor has not been to court for ten days."

Xu Jin couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Why is this? As far as I know, the emperor will not stop the court easily, let alone not attend court for ten consecutive days."

Wu Wending sighed and said, "Some time ago, the second son of the emperor felt a cold, and the emperor was very nervous and stayed in Chengqian Palace. Because of the eldest son of the emperor..., the ministers all understood the emperor's mood very well, so they were tolerant of the emperor not attending court for several consecutive days. However, I heard that the second son of the emperor has been good for the past few days, and the emperor still did not attend court, which is suspected of being negligent, so everyone has complained about this. Prince Jian of Beijing is in the emperor's heart, so you might as well advise the emperor to do one or two."

Xu Jin nodded after hearing this: "I am about to enter the palace to report my duties, so I should give advice."

Wu Wending said happily: "There is no greater goodness!"

Xu Jin bid farewell to Wu Wending and left the Ministry of War. He went to the palace gate to ask for the emperor. Soon, the eunuch of the inner magistrate Huang Jin personally greeted him and said with a flattering smile: "Congratulations to Prince Beijing for quelling the rebellion of Yunnan and Sichuan without bloodshed. When he returns to Beijing this time, the emperor will definitely be rewarded with a heavy reward. At that time, the prince will have to invite wine."

Xu Jin smiled and said, "It's not easy for Eunuch Huang to drink. You can drink it when you go to the Bi Mansion tonight."

Huang Jin couldn't help but feel like spring breeze when he heard this. With Xu Jin's current prominence and kindness to him, he naturally felt quite proud and said with a smile: "Forget it, the prince is tired all the way, so our family will not disturb him. Another day, our family will hold a banquet to welcome the prince. Then the prince will have a look of his face."

"Eunuch Huang is polite, it must be!" Xu Jin exchanged a few words in a very unnutrition and asked, "Are the emperor still in Chengqian Palace at this moment?"

Huang Jin's smile became even more enthusiastic and nodded, "Yes, now the emperor is very concerned about the second son of the emperor. By the way, the emperor asked the prince to go to Chengqian Palace to report his duties, and by the way he would also meet the imperial concubine and the second son of the emperor."

Xu Jin nodded when he heard this, and followed Huang Jin to the inner court. The two of them chatted casually while walking. The latter suddenly whispered mysteriously: "Tell the prince a good news. The emperor plans to confer the imperial concubine as the queen. He has ordered the cabinet to discuss this matter a few days ago. It is estimated that the ceremony of conferring the title will be held soon and the imperial edict will be issued to the world."

Xu Jin was not surprised by this. Queen Wu has passed away for more than half a year, and the position of queen is vacant. It is only a matter of time before Zhier becomes the queen. After Zhier becomes the queen, his son will naturally become the best candidate for the prince. The status of his uncle will be even more prosperous. The Xu family does not have to worry about at least two or three generations. No wonder Huang Jin, a kid, currying himself so enthusiastically.

Let’s talk about Xu Jin and Huang Jin who arrived at Chengqian Palace, they saw Jiajing changing his son’s diapers. The second son of the emperor was more than eight months old at this time and was born white and fat, which was a smaller version of Jiajing. This kid had just finished pulling "gold", and Jiajing didn’t dislike him at all. He personally washed his butt, and his skillful technique made Xu Jin ashamed.

"See the Emperor!"

This was Xu Jin's second salute, but Jiajing seemed to have not heard it. He carefully washed his butt, changed into diapers and clean pants, and then handed his son to the wet nurse beside him, and smiled while cleaning his hands: "Xu Qing is back. Oh, I originally planned to go out of the city to welcome you to triumph, but this little brat is too sticky to me, and I really can't walk away."

Xu Jin couldn't help but speechless. It turned out that Jiajing, a kid, had not been to court for ten days and had been a dad here.

"Why didn't you see the Imperial Concubine?" Xu Jin asked in confusion.

"A few days ago, Xiao Jiaozi felt a cold. Sister Zhier probably was infected. She has fallen ill these two days and is resting in bed." Jiajing said.

Xu Jin was shocked when he heard this and asked hurriedly: "What about the imperial concubine now?"

Jiajing said, "Don't worry, it's already big, but I still have a slight cough. The imperial physician is worried about cross-infection, so he advised her not to touch Xiaojiuzi first." After saying that, he said with a little distress: "Littlejiuzi hasn't seen her mother for a few days and she cried so hard that she is better now, but she is very attached to me and can't take care of anyone else. I am one and two big now."

As soon as Jiajing finished speaking, the second son of the Emperor who was holding the wet nurse cried loudly. Jiajing immediately took the son from the wet nurse's arms nervously. Sure enough, the second son of the emperor stopped crying when he arrived in Jiajing's arms, and obediently lay in his arms sucking his fingers, and looked at Xu Jin curiously with his watery eyes.

"Boy, you are preparing to exhaust me!" Jiajing complained, while holding his son with a heart-to-heart sting, as if the doting in his eyes was about to flow out, and he had to say in a slight manner: "They all say that Xiao Jiaozi looks like me, what do you think? Xiao Jiaozi... Come on, call her uncle!"

Xu Jin reached out and teased Xiao Jiaozi, and smiled and said, "If the baby is insecure with his mother, he will be particularly clingy. Your Majesty, you spoil him too much. In fact, as long as you are so cruel, he will adapt soon."

Jiajing sighed and said, "I understand the truth, but I can't bear to leave it!"

Xu Jin frowned and said, "Then the emperor will not stop attending court and be a dad in the harem, right? Isn't the emperor afraid that Mr. Liao and Mr. Wu will be ignorant of the picket tomorrow?"

Jiajing coughed dryly and said, "I have no choice. I will wait for two more days. When Zhier's illness is cured, I will go to court. In short, Xu Qing, you are responsible for tackling those two old men for me."

Xu Jin spread his hands speechlessly!

"By the way, I named Xiao Jiaozi Zhu Zai'an. What do Xu Qing think?" Jiajing asked proudly.

Xu Jin's heart moved. Isn't Zhu Zai'er the twelfth emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the twelfth emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and it is a coincidence or God's will. I remember that the biological mother of the Ming Dynasty seemed to be Du Kang's concubine. It seems that her time travel has really completely changed the historical trend of the Ming Dynasty. Now no one can predict the future direction of the Ming Empire.

"Good name, great talent!" Xu Jin gave a thumbs up and gave a fragrant fart.

Jiajing laughed: "Although I understand that Xu Qing is shamelessly flattering, I am still very happy. Hahaha, by the way, although you helped me to quell the Yunnan-Shu Rebellion this time, I did not fight a single battle, only hard work but no contribution, so I will not reward you this time!"

Xu Jin said indignantly: "The emperor is too stingy. What does it mean to work hard but not make merit? It is also a kind of skill to defeat others without fighting. It is not a skill that ordinary people can have. It is really impossible for the emperor to not reward him."

Jiajing made a thoughtful look and glanced at Xu Jin again and said, "It seems that it is not unreasonable. OK, then I will reward you and Yongfu for getting married for 16 this month. My princess is beautiful and gentle and virtuous. Even if you get a treasure when marrying you, you can prepare well in the next few days. Don't embarrass me when you pick up the bride." After that, he laughed angrily.
