Then, Zhu Xu recruited Fu Changzong again.

There are several academies set up by Zhu Xu in the capital to train government affairs and military aspects. At this time, they need fresh blood, and they also need to be Zhu Xu's eyeliner to watch the movements of the Ministry of War.

He was busy until the evening when Zhu Xu breathed a sigh of relief and walked around the palace with his hands behind his back.

After walking for a while, Zhu Xu didn't feel her shoulders sore. Seeing that the direction of the cabinet was still lit, he said, "Xiao Cao, you ordered someone to send a bowl of bird's nest to King Xin."

Cao Huachun bowed slightly and said, "Yes." After saying that, he sent a little eunuch behind him to leave.

Zhu Xu walked around and felt very bored. He thought for a while and said, "Let's go to Cining Palace."

Zhu Xu felt bored, but the ministers outside the palace were not.

Ye Xianggao Mansion, Han Yu Mansion, and Yang Lian Mansion. They have never stopped since Zhu Xu ordered the electoral ministers.

According to convention, there are six people in the cabinet, and four people are still missing. Even if the emperor wants to elect more, there will be no more than five people. Therefore, if they want to unify them as soon as possible, they can only discuss it below.

This is also the habit of the Donglin Party. Adhering to the guiding ideology of exorcising evil spirits and using righteousness, they must work together to remove the members of the evil party they think, and then distribute them internally.

According to their expectations, there is basically no problem with the four people of Ye Xianggao, Han Dong, Zhao Nanxing and Gao Panlong. After all, Ye Xianggao and Han Dong were ministers before and had no bad records. It is natural to go back to the cabinet. Then Zhao Nanxing was the former Minister of Personnel, Gao Panlong was the left censor, and it was legitimate to enter the cabinet.

However, this official position is not based on reason. Since it is on the list of recommendations, it cannot be beaten down if there is nothing.

After continuous communication, an agreement was basically reached within the Donglin Party.

Ye Xianggao, Han Yu, Zhao Nanxing, Gao Panlong and four others entered the cabinet. Yang Lian can be transferred to the Minister of Rites next year, Zuo Guangdou is the Minister of Works, and next year, he can be transferred to the Censor of the Zuodu. In this way, it will be natural for them to enter the cabinet in two years.

As for the other people, they were completely excluded.

There has never been a secret in the officialdom. Zhu Youjian left the palace late at night. As soon as he entered the mansion, Princess Xin came over and said, "Prince, Lord Ni, Lord Wang will wait for you for a while."

Zhu Youjian looked tired but was in good spirits. He looked at Zhou and said, "Well, you can rest early."

Zhou looked at Zhu Youjian's face, twisted a hot towel, wiped his face, and said caringly: "Prince, no matter how busy government affairs are, you must pay attention to your health."

Zhu Youjian wiped the hot towel and was much more awake. He sighed softly: "You don't know, the emperor is still young, and I can't ignore many things."

Zhou felt more and more distressed and said softly: "Well, you have seen two adults rest early. I'll ask Wang Chengen to prepare some food for you."

Zhu Youxiao nodded with a smile, turned around and walked towards the hall.

Ni Wenhuan and Wang Shaohui sat opposite each other in the lobby, both of them looked anxious.

They were the ones who believed in the king on the surface, but in fact they belonged to the emperor. However, if Zhao Nanxing and others came back, they were afraid that the Donglin Party would be as powerful as a fire. If they did not say that they believed in the king, even the emperor would not be able to protect them.

Because, they were regarded as "evil party" by Zhao Nanxing a long time ago.

"Mr. Lao has been waiting for a long time."

Zhu Youjian came in and said to the two of them with a smile.

When Ni Wenhuan saw this, he quickly stood up and said, "I hope the prince will forgive me if I disturb you so late."

Zhu Youjian looked at the faces of the two, was slightly stunned, and said, "But what happened?"

Ni Wenhuan and Wang Shaohui looked at each other, and Wang Shaohui said, "Your Majesty is afraid that you don't know yet. The Donglin Party has already discussed the choice of the cabinet's auxiliary minister."

Zhu Youjian frowned and said, "The court discussion has not yet begun, how can it be decided?"

Ni Wenhuan looked bitter and said, "Can't the prince see it? All the people in the court and the country are Donglin Party members. This court discussion is probably just a formality."

Zhu Youjian was skeptical and said, "All the greats are loyal to the state and have no selfishness. How could they be so privately?"

Wang Shaohui was helpless and explained: "The prince rarely involved in the court before and did not understand it. In fact, this is normal. The Donglin Party claims to be full of righteousness in the court. Where did this "righteousness" come from? It is not that the cliques collude and support each other."

Zhu Youjian sat down on the chair, listening to the two of them, with a serious expression.

These two of them are people he trusts. After observing this period, he has indeed devoted himself to the country and has done a lot of things. They cannot come to coax him at night, after all, they will have to discuss the court and publicly recommend it tomorrow.

After a while of silence, Zhu Youjian looked up at the two of them and said, "Who are there?"

Ni Wenhuan said, "Ye Xianggao, Han Du, Zhao Nanxing, Gao Panlong four people."

Zhu Youjian thought that these four people were indeed from the Donglin Party and had a great reputation, so it was a popular choice for everyone to join the cabinet.

Zhu Youjian thought and said, "What do you think?"

Ni Wenhuan and Wang Shaohui looked at each other and said, "Prince, the new emperor has just been established, and this line cannot be opened. Both of us think that the prince must stop them. First, the Donglin Party should not be allowed to dominate the court, and second, the Donglin Party should also be warned that they should not be allowed to ignore the national laws so much. Third, it is to establish authority for the prince!"

Zhu Youjian thought and nodded slightly, saying, "What you said makes sense. The Donglin Party's move is indeed not conducive to the court. What do you think should I do?"

When Wang Shaohui saw it, he stretched his head over and whispered: "Prince, the emperor's trust in you is well known. This time you can contact the neutral court officials to stop the Donglin Party from forming power in the court discussion tomorrow!"

Seeing Zhu Youjian's eyes hesitation, Ni Wenhuan said further, "Prince, we have just taken office and have no extravagant hope of entering the cabinet. This is all for our Ming Dynasty court!"

Zhu Youjian looked at the sincere faces of the two, took a deep breath, stood up and said, "Okay, I will go there myself. Tomorrow, let's see the Donglin Party's actions."

Ni Wenhuan and Wang Shaohui looked at each other with a secret joy, and stood up and said, "We were the prince who worked hard for all his life!"

Inside Cining Palace.

Xiao Yongning kept giggling, standing on Zhu Xu's legs, waving his little hands.

Zhu Xu looked at his white and tender little face. He couldn't like it, and he rubbed his face from time to time, making the little guy whisper and push his little hands from time to time, so cute.

Queen Zhang, now she should be called Queen Mother Zhang, leaned over to clean up the dishes and saw her uncle and nephew having fun, and shook her head helplessly and said, "You, save me some snacks. Don't come here after so late."

"It's okay, I'm still young."

Zhu Xu casually made a statement and continued to tease Xiao Yongning.

Empress Dowager Zhang used to be helpless, and now it is even more impossible to lock him up. After packing up, she asked Huaner to take him down, hugged Xiao Yongning, sat opposite Zhu Xu, and looked at him and said, "I heard that you have spent all the treasury?"

Zhu Xu picked up the teacup and drank tea, nodded and said, "Well, there is no way, there is no way, there is a shortage of silver everywhere."

Empress Dowager Zhang shook her head gently and said, "You don't know how to be an emperor yet. You can only be at ease with the money in your hands. Now that the money is spent, what can you do if you encounter urgent matters in the future?"

Zhu Xu sipped the tea, breathed, and said, "It's okay, I know that, by the way, the emperor's wife, I heard that Concubine Liu is not in good health recently?"

Concubine Liu was the concubine of Wanli. She was kind by nature and was lenient. She did not fight for power or favor in the palace. Now she was the highest-ranking person in the harem. When Zhu Youxiao was alive, he held the seal of the Queen Mother and now handed it over to Queen Zhang, who is the current Queen Mother Zhang.

Queen Mother Zhang nodded gently and said, "I went to see it a few days ago, and the concubine was still thinking about choosing a queen for you."

“Have a chance.”

Zhu Xu nodded with a smile. Concubine Liu is a very wise person. Since the Wanli Dynasty, the turmoil in the harem has never stopped. Concubine Zheng, the case of the palace transfer, and then to Keshi, she has come safely. The only time she insisted was to choose a concubine for Prince Xin, and the current Zhoushi was chosen.

"By the way, what's going on with the Liu family now?" Zhu Xu said again.

The Liu family is also a family of loyal and wise in history. Liu Hua, the younger brother of Concubine Liu, became the left governor and died in Liaodong. After Li Zicheng captured the city of Beijing, another younger brother, Liu Dai, learned that Chongzhen had hanged himself for his country and killed himself with a fire and fired his whole family.

Empress Dowager Zhang was stunned, shook her head and said, "I don't know this."

Zhu Xushou stood up and said, "Then I won't disturb my sister-in-law's rest."

Empress Dowager Zhang hugged Xiao Yongning and stood up, saying, "Don't be too tired, you're still growing."

Zhu Xu smiled and said, "I understand. Xiao Yongning, the emperor is gone..."

"Yayayaya..."
