Chapter 564 Chen Pingping and Fan Jian seek refuge

Su Mingzhe knew that Emperor Qing was able to firmly control the affairs of the Nanqing Dynasty mainly because he had mastered several powerful forces.

These forces are the 'Internal Supervisory Office' and the 'Iron Guards' jointly controlled by Eunuch Hou and Hong Sixiang.

The ‘Procuratorate’ run by Chen Pingping.

The ‘Tiger Guard’ is jointly run by Eunuch Yao and Fan Jian.

In addition to these supervisory agencies, Emperor Qing also had Qin Ye, the first man in the army, to take charge of the army for him.

Junshanhui, the anti-Qingdi alliance under the leadership of Li Yunrui, etc.

These forces were basically created by Emperor Qing.

Now that Emperor Qing had just passed away, Eunuch Hou took the initiative to surrender.

Su Mingzhe sat in the imperial study room and began to think slowly and in a daze:

I don't know when the leaders of other forces will take the initiative to surrender to me.

The new emperor's ascension to the throne is just like the appointment of a new leader in the company.

As a new leader, the first thing to do is not to "burn the new official", but to win over the existing key members and allow the department to continue to operate normally.

Those leaders who ‘work hard’, ‘take drastic measures’, ‘eliminate the old shortcomings’ and ‘build new ones’ from the very beginning often end up getting twice the result with twice the result, going in the opposite direction, and in the end they end up with a person who loses their heart and everyone betrays their relatives.

Now that Su Mingzhe has ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he naturally wants to change the law.

But if you want to change the law, you must learn from great people.

Win over most people, make many of your friends, attack a small group of people, and make only a few enemies.

With a mass base, anything can be done easily.

By the afternoon.

Chen Pingping came to the palace to see me.

Su Mingzhe will naturally not refuse

Then in the imperial study room, Su Mingzhe saw Chen Pingping pushing a wheelchair in.

Chen Pingping has a fair face and no beard, just like a villain, with a flattering and flattering smile on her face as soon as she meets her.

After Su Mingzhe exempted him from paying homage (and could not kneel down), he took out a piece of information he had compiled, handed it to Eunuch Hou, and said in a sincere tone:

"Your Majesty, this is the list of all personnel of the Inspectorate since its establishment 20 years ago. The Inspectorate is only loyal to Your Majesty and to the Qing Kingdom. I am willing to serve as your Majesty's eagle and dog to help Your Majesty unify the country."

"Dean Chen, you are indeed my father's most trusted minister."

Su Mingzhe took the list information with a smile and put it on the imperial desk without looking through it. With a sincere smile on his face, he continued to preach:

"Dean Chen, I am new to Dabao, and I am not familiar with many things. My father can leave the Procuratorate in your hands, and I hope you can continue to help me manage the Procuratorate..."

"Old minister, I will do my best until I die!"

When Chen Pingping saw Su Mingzhe praising him so much, she quickly expressed her determination to be loyal to the country.

I don’t know if Su Mingzhe believed what he said, but the emperor and his ministers were each better at acting than the other.

Finally, Su Mingzhe asked Eunuch Hou to send Chen Pingping away, then picked up the list and began to read it carefully.

When he saw in the information, it was written: 'Yan Ruohai is undercover Qin Ye', 'Zhu Ge is Li Yunrui's undercover', 'Yuan Hongdao is Chen Pingping's double undercover agent beside Li Yunrui and Lin Ruofu', he believed it.

Chen Pingping is really surrendering to herself.

In fact, even if Chen Pingping never moves closer to him, Su Mingzhe has a way to control him.

However, now that Chen Pingping can take the initiative to come closer, Su Mingzhe can continue to hide the methods he prepared.

Not long after.

Fan Jian also came to the palace and took the initiative to return control of the Tiger Guard.

"Your Majesty, thanks to the favor of the late emperor, I am able to take charge of the Tiger Guard... Please take back the power of the Tiger Guard."

After Su Mingzhe heard Fan Jian's impassioned speech, which was comparable to the "Departure of the Army", he took the initiative to hand over the power of the Tiger Guard, feeling both happy and depressed.

Fan Jian said he wanted to hand over the Tiger Guard, but he was actually testing Su Mingzhe's trust in him.

After hearing this, Su Mingzhe could only say in a blaming tone:

"Uncle Si Nan, you are my father's brother-in-law. According to etiquette, I should call you uncle. I have just ascended the throne, and you have to leave me alone. Are you worthy of my father who is so weak?"

"I am guilty."

Fan Jian didn't expect that Su Mingzhe would be so good at criticizing others.

Although he is not afraid of being slapped, he can only stand up from the bench to plead guilty.

"Uncle Si Nan, as long as you know that he is guilty, you should continue to watch this tiger guard for me."

As Su Mingzhe spoke, his tone suddenly changed and he smiled gently:

"I heard that Uncle Sinan has two sons. I wonder which one you plan to let inherit the title of Uncle Sinan?"

"Um?"

Fan Jian did not expect that Su Mingzhe would suddenly mention the matter to his son.

However, Su Mingzhe's implication was clearly that he allowed his title of Earl of Sinan to continue to be passed down.

After Fan Jian thought for a while, he said:

"Reporting to your Majesty, although I have two sons, they are not legitimate sons. According to the rules, they cannot directly ascend the throne."

Military meritorious deeds can be directly inherited by the legitimate son.

If a concubine or stepson wants to inherit the throne, he must either regain his military exploits or be demoted to inherit the throne.

"What's the problem if you're not your legitimate son?"

Su Mingzhe didn't take this seriously at all and directly gave his idea:

"You can support an aunt in the family, and when the family has a mistress, there will naturally be a legitimate son."

"What your Majesty said is true, but this matter is a little rushed. Please allow me to go home and think about it for a few days."

Fan Jian was a little dizzy from the pie thrown by Su Mingzhe, so he said goodbye and left the palace.

Seeing the sky gradually getting dark.

There are no more ministers asking for an audience.

At this time, Eunuch Hou came back from outside and asked Su Mingzhe:

"Your Majesty, it's already Xu time, do you want to pass on the meal?"

"Pass it on."

Su Mingzhe wasn't hungry, but since it was time, he would eat something.

Not long after, Eunuch Hou sent someone to serve three dishes and one soup according to the old dining habits of Prince Li Chengqian in the East Palace.

Emperor Qing advocated frugality in spending money in the palace.

In order to please Emperor Qing, Prince Li Chengqian naturally would not be extravagant or extravagant.

After Su Mingzhe had dinner, he came to the dragon chair in the imperial study room and prepared to read the memorial for a while.

Suddenly, I heard a young eunuch shouting: "The eldest princess wants to see you."

"Xuan."

Su Mingzhe did not expect that Li Yunrui would dare to come over on the first day after Emperor Qing's death, and he was shocked by her courage.

Not long after, Li Yunrui, dressed in a long white dress, walked in with light steps like a fairy coming to earth.

Perhaps because Emperor Qing had just passed away, Li Yunrui didn't like putting on makeup, so his face was particularly pure, and his snow-white skin was crystal clear, as if it were transparent.

Willow's eyebrows are curved like a crescent moon, her long and beautiful black hair is scattered down her back like a waterfall, her slender jade fingers are long and dexterous, and she has a charming face and a charming figure.

When Su Mingzhe first watched the TV series, he felt that Li Yunrui was already very beautiful.

Unexpectedly, in reality, this Li Yunrui is even more ridiculously beautiful.

No wonder so many men are obsessed with her.

"Li Yunrui pays homage to His Majesty."

"Auntie, please get up. Eunuch Hou, show me your seat quickly."

After all, Su Mingzhe is not Li Chengqian. Although he was stunned by Li Yunrui's beauty, he will not become her licking dog.

Li Yunrui's health has never been very good, his skin is as good as snow, and his movements are delicate and weak. After sitting down slowly, he said softly and timidly:

"Your Majesty, have you had your dinner?"

"Thank you for your concern, aunt. I have just used it."

Su Mingzhe answered and asked with concern:

"Auntie, have you had dinner? Did you have a headache today?"

"I took a few bites and the headache didn't come back."

Li Yunrui and Su Mingzhe just chatted for a few words. Although the words were not polite, it did not affect her eyes and expressions.

After being shocked by her a few times, Su Mingzhe started to feel a little hot in his heart, and he wished he could execute her right away.

Unfortunately, the timing was not right.

Su Mingzhe could only hold back and chat a few more words. Seeing Li Yunrui keep ogling him, he had no choice but to serve tea to the guests and say:

"Auntie, the night is already dark. Be careful of catching a cold. Go back and rest quickly. If you have any questions, we can talk about it tomorrow."

"Your Majesty is right. Then I will come to visit Your Majesty tomorrow."

Li Yunrui is a stubborn person.

Su Mingzhe asked her to leave, so she wouldn't stay shamelessly.

It was only after leaving the Royal Study that she began to frown slightly:

"I didn't expect that after my nephew became the emperor, his concentration would be stronger than before. If I had shown a little bit of grace in the past, my nephew would have blushed and his words would have been awkward..."

the next day.

Because of the death of Emperor Qing, the court was suspended for three days.

All ministers in Beijing must come to pay homage to Emperor Qing every day. After paying homage, they can go to work in their departments.

As the ministers finished paying tribute, Su Mingzhe began to reward the army because the new king had ascended the throne.

In addition, it is also necessary to announce it to the outside world and invite envoys from various countries to pay their respects and express condolences.

When Su Mingzhe returned to the imperial study, he listened to the report. Guo Youzhi, the Minister of Rites, invited him to see him.

On the surface, this Guo Youzhi took refuge with the prince Li Chengqian, but secretly he was the eldest princess Li Yunrui's man.

When Su Mingzhe heard that he came to ask for an audience, he remembered that the charming Li Yunrui asked for an audience last night.

Early this morning, Eunuch Hou reported that Li Yunrui smashed a lot of things after returning to Guangxin Palace.

What a crazy woman.

Eunuch Hou saw that Su Mingzhe didn't know what to think, but he had to report again:

"Your Majesty, Guo Shangshu wants to see you. Do you want to announce his entry?"

"Explain it."

Su Mingzhe was sitting on the dragon chair behind the desk in the royal study. Not long after, he saw a serious-looking Guo Youzhi walking in with several memorials in his hands.

After some courtesy, Guo Youzhi handed his memorial to Eunuch Hou. After Su Mingzhe opened it and looked at it, he reported:

"Your Majesty, yesterday I discussed with dozens of colleagues from the Ministry of Rites until late at night, and finally decided on the title of the late emperor. I also presented the memorial of the Empress Dowager of Jin as the Empress Dowager, and the Empress of Jin as the Empress Dowager."

Su Mingzhe flipped through it casually and found that Emperor Qing's nickname was a bit long, so he won't go into it.

The 'grandma' will be re-canonized as the Queen Mother, and the 'mother' will also be canonized as the 'Queen Mother'.

Other concubines, such as Concubine Shu, Concubine Yi, and Concubine Ning, were canonized because they gave birth to children to Emperor Qing.

The concubine Shu of Jin is called the concubine Huang Kao, the concubine Yi of Jin is the concubine Huang Kao, and the talented concubine of Jin Ning is the noble concubine Huang Kao.

As for other concubines who did not have children, they just added the word "Huang Kao".

In addition, there is also a memorial, which is to send all the childless concubines, as well as the maids who served Emperor Qing, to Changling for 'sacrifice burial'.

Su Mingzhe naturally did not allow this memorial and wrote a reply directly:

"According to the old practice, the pottery figurines can be buried as sacrifices."
