Chapter 4 The majestic first appears, the prince ascends to the palace(2/3)

Zhu Yijun wanted to put his hand on his forehead. No wonder Gao Gong couldn't beat Feng Bao, his methods were too crude.

The little eunuch kowtowed repeatedly: "I don't dare! I don't dare anymore!"

Zhu Yijun was not in the mood to watch the little eunuch perform, and he did not need this person to bite out Feng Bao. He looked at Gao Gong and said seriously: "Yuan Fu, I mistakenly believed the slander, and I will definitely give Yuan Fu an explanation!"

Without looking at Gao Gong's reaction, he turned to Feng Bao and said, "Dad companion, what crime should this person commit for deceiving the emperor and neglecting his superiors?"

Even if he has not ascended the throne, he is still the heir, so it can be said that he is deceiving the emperor.

When dealing with eunuchs and domestic slaves, there is no need to go to prison for trial, they can be dealt with on the spot.

Facing this question, Feng Bao was like an outsider. His voice did not have much fluctuation, and he said respectfully: "Report to Your Highness, the crime of deceiving the emperor should be punished!"

In front of the Wenhua Palace, Sijun came towards him with the pressure from the cabinet. Feng Bao would not go crazy to protect a little eunuch.

This is a plan to abandon the son. The young eunuch’s family has already been arranged before he enters the palace. How dare he not die?

Of course, Gao Gong was not satisfied with just blaming the little eunuch. Who was plotting against him? He knew clearly in his heart: "The eunuchs who were on duty in Wenhua Palace were changed inexplicably. As soon as the new one came, this happened.

Eunuch Feng, is this a good show deliberately arranged by the Chief of Ceremonies?"

Feng Bao raised his eyelids and said feebly: "Yuan Fu, please don't be suspicious. Several people who were on duty before were dismissed by the imperial concubine Li Empress along with Meng Chong. They are just filling in as usual."

As soon as he carried out Concubine Li, Gao Gong, no matter how angry he was, could not continue talking in this direction. He could only say angrily: "How can a mere eunuch dare to commit such a serious crime of deceiving the emperor? How could there be no one to instruct him!?"

The chief assistant of the cabinet and the chief minister of etiquette faced each other outside the Wenhua Hall, and all the officials couldn't help but look at each other.

At this time, Zhang Juzheng suddenly said: "Yuanfu, this matter can be discussed again. It is important for His Highness to attend court today."

Gao Gong woke up suddenly, and was shocked to realize that the prince and all the officials were standing outside the Wenhua Hall, and he couldn't help but restrain his anger with hatred.

When Feng Bao saw that Gao Gong had lost his temper, he said something that was neither yin nor yang: "Yes, Yuan Fu, Your Highness looks after the court and cannot be neglected. Our Chief of Ceremonies will handle this matter properly when he goes back. I only hope that Yuan Fu

Don’t say surprising words, just let people imagine you.”

He did his job cleanly and was not afraid to tell anyone about it. Otherwise, he would not have dared to blatantly stumbling over Gao Gong.

Since he is the Chief of Ceremonies, a position known as the Internal Minister, he is really not afraid of wrestling with the cabinet.

This attitude made Gao Gong furious again.

Zhu Yijun watched it with gusto. In his previous life, the meeting was always peaceful on the outside, but now this scene full of gunpowder was really rare, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

Seeing that the fire was almost done, he immediately took over the conversation: "Yuanfu, my dear companion, please allow me to say something."

Feng Bao shut up immediately.

Gao Gong still wanted to argue, but he didn't give any face.

Seeing this, Zhu Yijun continued to speak quickly, not daring to give him a chance to interrupt: "I am Deliang Youchong, and that is why some people deceived my orphans and widowed mother, and mistakenly believed the slander. I should reflect on myself first."

This was a politically correct form of humility commonly used by the royal family, and all the officials also knelt down reflexively.

"I am waiting for death!"

In this situation, no matter how senior you are, you have to kneel down.

Gao Gong couldn't say any more, so he could only prostrate himself immediately: "The thief has no identity, how dare I blame it on Your Highness!"

Zhu Yijun quickly helped him up: "When the emperor was still in the imperial examination, he often told me, 'Everyone is guilty, but I am guilty.' Although I am not the emperor, but now I am the heir to the court, I should also bear the responsibility.

"

All the officials prostrated themselves again.

Gao Yi even felt that after seeing him for a few days, this heir's words and conversation really impressed him.

Zhu Yijun turned to look at Zhang Juzheng and said seriously: "What Zhang Ge said just now is reasonable. The etiquette agreed by the Ministry of Rites is a big deal and cannot be delayed. However, I have just promised to give Yuan Fu an explanation. Why don't I get one?"

I mean, how about cutting through the mess with a quick knife?"

Zhang Juzheng pursed his lips and looked up at him: "Your Highness is determined in his own mind, and I am respectfully listening to you."

When he bowed down, he put his hands in his sleeves and kept rubbing his thumbs, his thoughts churning.

Zhu Yijun nodded and looked at Feng Bao: "The words of the great companion are mature and prudent. Since the change of the Wenhua Palace is my mother and concubine's purpose, there is nothing to investigate. There are always people who have no regard for the emperor and father. What will they do?

It’s not surprising, just drag him out and kill him with a stick.”

He pointed at the little eunuch, but for a moment no one moved him.

After Feng Bao made a gentle gesture secretly, a eunuch immediately came forward, gagged his mouth and dragged him down by force.

When Feng Bao saw that the farce was over by sacrificing a young eunuch, he smiled in his heart and looked down on his face: "Your Highness, the Holy Ming Wu Guo!"

Zhu Yijun nodded.

But Gao Gong refused: "Your Highness!"

Zhu Yijun only felt a headache. Why are you anxious?

He immediately interrupted and changed the topic: "But, what Yuan Fu said makes sense! It's not surprising that this person has no king and no father, but the fact that he can sneak into the Wenhua Hall to be on duty really makes me feel uneasy!"

"My lord, who is the Supervisor of Ceremonies and the one who appoints the errands of each palace?"

Feng Bao's eyelids twitched and he was about to speak.

Zhu Yijun waved his little hand: "No matter who it is, remove him. I will go back and ask my mother and concubine before I can choose a new candidate."

The errands and duties have always been handled by the eunuchs and eunuchs. These are high-ranking ministers and must be Feng Bao's confidants. If this were to be abolished, it would be enough to make him feel distressed for a long time.

As for suitable candidates, he had some plans, but he still needed to convince Concubine Li, and it would be better if he could arrange some people for his use.

Feng Bao seemed to be arguing: "Your Highness..."

Gao Gong immediately interrupted him: "That's right! Your Highness is decisive, I surrender!"

Although he was dissatisfied, he had other plans. Of course he would not let Feng Bao go if he could vent his anger.

Zhang Juzheng also echoed: "Your Highness, the Holy Ming Wu Guo!"

Feng Bao hesitated.

If Zhu Yijun spoke, he could pretend he didn't hear him.

But at this time, it was the joint will of Zhu Yijun and the cabinet, and he was unable to refute it.

He could only tighten his grip on his toes and kowtow to Zhu Yijun: "There is no sage like you, Your Highness!"

Gao Gong glared at Feng Bao and made a note of this in his mind.

Seeing that the dust had settled, Zhu Yijun took a deep breath and felt relieved.

Power is power.

Using the power of the cabinet to make Feng Bao bow his head, even if it was just the personnel power of an eunuch, it was of great significance to him.

It's really a good start.

There is still a long way to go. Zhu Yijun sneered in his heart, but showed no flaws on his face. He just asked everyone to stand up and ended this episode.

Now that the matter was settled, he didn't delay any longer.

He nodded towards the etiquette officer, walked slowly towards the Wenhua Hall, and said without looking back: "Let's ascend to the court."

The etiquette officials were still immersed in the good show just now.

After receiving the order, they suddenly came to their senses and straightened up.

The moment Zhu Yijun stepped into the Wenhua Hall, the Honglu Temple officials immediately sang and shouted: "Invite the Crown Prince to be promoted to the Wenhua Hall."

Zhu Yijun strode into the Wenhua Hall with his head held high.

There were constant rustling sounds as four small yellow doors carried the dazzling golden dragon chair and carefully placed it on the imperial case.

Two more deacons guided him in front of Zhu Yijun, bowed and said: "The crown prince ascends to the throne and ascends to the throne."

As soon as he finished speaking, the guards were again equipped with armor and swords. They walked through and separated themselves, guarding the strategic positions, and the killing was severe.

Zhu Yijun walked to the steps.

Step by step, I walked up to the imperial cabinet, walking extremely slowly.

Walking up the stone steps of the Wenhua Palace is also leading to the highest level of power in the Ming Dynasty.

He slowly stood in front of the imperial case and gently touched the armrest of the dragon chair.

Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and sit down slowly.

Snap!

There was a sound of cracking a whip.

Xiaohuangmen stood at the door of Wenhua Palace and sang loudly: "Civil and military ministers enter the palace! They will take orders according to their rank!"

Zhu Yijun opened his eyes, looked down at the Wenhua Palace, and saw an unforgettable scene in his life.

I saw the ministers filing in, divided into civil and military ranks.

Wearing leather belts and ribbons, they are divided into classes.

The court officials of Liang Guan and Luo Shang were bustling with each other. The leader in the front was the high-ranking official in Fei Pao, and behind him were the green people.

They were all lying inside and outside the Wenhua Hall, spreading all the way until the end of sight.
