Chapter 26 Clues~~)

After hearing this, Empress Zhang's expression did not change anyway. She looked at Zhu Xu with her eyes and chuckled, "Okay, your filial sister-in-law knows, you don't have to worry about these things anymore. The sister-in-law knows how to do it."

There was no trace at all, Zhu Xu sighed inwardly, Queen Zhang was not simple either.

After accompanying Queen Zhang to amuse her for a long time, Zhu Xu had no idea and left Kunning Palace helplessly.

"Your Highness, Your Highness." As soon as he left Kunning Palace, Cao Huachun hurried over with a look of urgency.

Zhu Xu looked at Cao Huachun and smiled and said, "What's the matter? Our Eunuch Cao is so anxious?"

Cao Huachun glanced around and whispered to Zhu Xu: "Your Highness, the emperor has decided to move the capital to Nanjing. Neither the chief assistant nor the second assistant opposed it."

Zhu Xu's eyes suddenly glared at the boss, looked at Cao Huachun in horror and said, "Where did the news come from? Is it accurate?"

Cao Huachun was also frightened and lowered his voice nervously and said, "It was heard from the Sili Supervisor. Tongzheng Envoy Department that there are many such memorials, and they have been sent to the imperial court."

Zhu Xu's heart was beating, looking up at the gray sky not far away, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

He had been waiting for Zhu Youxiao's actions, but he didn't expect that it would be such a big move!

Since Zhu Di usurped the throne and ascended the throne in Nanjing, he felt uneasy, so he moved the capital to his royal city, Beiping. From now on, the voices of the capital in Nanjing have been heard all the time, even if it is still the case a hundred years later.

In addition, the Jurchens have been in chaos in recent years and earthquakes in the capital have occurred frequently, which makes this sound even more frequent. But after all, it is not the mainstream. In addition, the Ming Dynasty has never compromised from top to bottom, so this kind of call has never become a climate.

"But, can this really succeed?"

After a while, Zhu Xu said thoughtfully. Moving the capital was not a simple matter, it involved all aspects. Even Zhu Di, who was strong in the past, had to go to Bei/ping first and slowly plan for it. Even so, the model of the two capitals of the north and the south has continued to this day.

With Zhu Youxiao's current ability, if you want to move the capital, you may have to pass the Qingliu level. Logically speaking, it is absolutely impossible, and Zhu Youxiao should also know this.

But the chief and second assistants did not object. What is the situation?

"What exactly is the emperor going to do?" Zhu Xu couldn't understand Zhu Youxiao any longer.

Zhu Xu walked back to Jinghuan Palace while thinking. Cao Wenzhao also received the news and came to Zhu Xu and said, "Your Highness, what should we do now?"

He is the one who knows Zhu Xu the best. He just suppressed Wei Zhongxian. If Wei Zhongxian rekindled after moving the capital, wouldn’t it be in vain for them to do so much?

Zhu Xu sat on the lounge chair, holding the teacup, and slowly sipped it.

Such a meaning of moving the capital was definitely not something Zhu Youxiao or Wei Zhongxianke could have come up with. I believe there is someone behind Zhu Youxiao.

"Don't worry, let me think about it."

Zhu Xu looked relaxed. No matter what Zhu Youxiao wanted to do, it would have no effect on him. But what he had to evaluate was the consequences of Zhu Youxiao doing these things.

"Moving the capital is definitely not the real purpose of the emperor. What is his intention?"

Zhu Xu talked to himself, pondering Zhu Youxiao’s true intentions.

"Your Highness," Cao Huachun glanced at Cao Wenzhao beside him and looked at Zhu Xu and said, "I think the emperor still wants to teach the disobedient people in the court a lesson."

Zhu Xu looked up at him and thought silently, "If the emperor wants to control the court, then he must change to an obedient person..."

Although Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the prime minister, he was exhausted from everything in detail, so he had a Grand Secretary. Over the past hundred years, after several changes, the chief minister became a "prime minister" who changed the soup and did not change the medicine. It can be seen from Zhang Juzheng, Yan Song, Xu Jie, Gao Gong and others that their power even surpassed the legendary prime minister.

However, each of the Ming emperors had quirks, but the worst control of the court was the last two, Tianqi and Chongzhen.

Emperor Tianqi wanted to use the eunuch party to check and balance the Donglin party, but internal ministers could not form a balance at all, and was doomed to fail. Chongzhen also did not believe in external ministers at all, and he also had many suspicions about internal ministers, which caused a large-scale killing of external ministers. In just over a decade, more than thirty chief ministers were replaced, which shows that the king and ministers were separated from each other and were separated from virtue.

Ye Xianggao is not the kind of flattering person, he has always been fair and honest. He is not Yan Song or Xu Jie, nor is he like Gao Gong, and he cannot figure out the will of the holy people. Ye Xianggao retired, and Han Du was the one who took over as the chief minister. This person is also a tough person, not the kind of person who only obeys orders.

The rest is Gu Bingqian. If you want to talk about this person, shamelessness can be said to be at its peak.

In order to curry favor with Wei Zhongxian's promotion, he took his son to Wei Zhongxian's mansion. He was in his seventies at the time and wanted to recognize Wei Zhongxian as his godfather. Because he was too old and was afraid that Wei Zhongxian would not agree, he asked his son to recognize Wei Zhongxian as his grandfather!

Wei Zhongxian is eighteen years younger than Gu Bingqian, and his son is not much worse than Wei Zhongxian.

Such a person is no longer enough to describe as shameless.

Could it be him? The emperor's brother wants the first assistant and the second assistant retires together?

Zhu Xu thought for a while, looked up at the two of them and said, "No matter what the emperor wants to do, he needs help. Wei Zhongxian must ask Ni Wenhuan to write a memorial. If you ask him to inform him and ask him to find out, who is the person who came up with this idea and what is the purpose?"

Cao Wenzhao agreed and quickly turned around and went out.

Zhu Xu said to Cao Huachun again: "Little Cao, the old witch probably has returned to the palace. Please keep an eye on me with the emperor's wife."

Cao Huachun naturally knew what Keshi did in the palace in the past few years, and said seriously after hearing this: "Please rest assured, I will never let old people fight my life... Keshi hurt the Empress and the Prince."

Zhu Xu nodded with a smile. Recently, Zhu Youxiao's sudden change has put a lot of pressure on him.

Now Zhu Youxiao convenes the first assistant and second assistant to talk about moving the capital. I believe that the court will have another turmoil in the future.

But these have little to do with Zhu Xu. What he cares most about is the person who gave Zhu Youxiao an idea and the purpose behind this idea.

After knowing the beginning, Zhu Xu was not so anxious, and Jing Huangong returned to peace. He practiced calligraphy when he had nothing to do, occasionally went to the imperial study room to gang up, and then went to Queen Zhang to eat and drink, and waited for his royal brother's follow-up actions.

Sure enough, as soon as the capital was moved, the Donglin Party went crazy. Various memorials flew to the imperial study room and criticized them greatly. The emperor thought twice, and the straightforward scolded Emperor Zhu Youxiao for forgetting his ancestors and forgot the ancestral teachings of Emperor Taizong's "The emperor ruled the country, and the king died of the country." If this continues, it will lose the foundation of Taizu and Taizong and destroy the Ming Dynasty!

But Zhu Youxiao didn't take it seriously at all. He should eat, drink and be in a car, and was not idle at all.

Three days were gone in a flash, and the outside was hustle and the palace was as quiet as usual.

Cao Wenzhao hurriedly came in from outside and said to Zhu Xu, who was practicing calligraphy, "Your Highness, news comes from Ni Wenhuan."

Zhu Xu kept brushing and said lightly: "What news?"

Cao Wenzhao glanced around and whispered in Zhu Xu's ear, "According to Ni Wenhuan, Wei Zhongxian will go to see someone tonight."
