After Yang Tinghe left, Liu Jian, who had always maintained his dignity, couldn't help it.

"Why don't you report it?!" Liu Ge is always a very serious person, and this kind of method that can be called flexible is a kind of "dishonesty" on his part.

It is said that he has not been a very playful person since he was a child. He is said to "play in a group and sit silently". He doesn't like those flashy things when he takes a pee.

"Looking through the history books, there are only those who like to learn but the ministers give direct advice. When has there ever been a time when someone liked to learn but the ministers did not give advice? If this is spread, wouldn't it be a joke?!"

"Hey, Mr. Liu, there is no need to be so angry. Just listen to what I have to say to you." Xie Qian tried to smooth things over and said, "Today is different from the past. Your Majesty has delayed the lectures in the East Palace several times, and now he is stuck here. If

Your Majesty refuses to agree. How can we, as ministers, resist and disobey the edict? Now His Highness has expressed his intention to study in the warm spring next year, and the date is fixed, so why worry? This situation can be resolved, and everyone is happy."

"What if we delay it until then?"

"No." Li Dongyang said: "First, His Highness has said that he wants to study to relieve His Majesty's worries. Reading is filial piety. How can we violate filial piety? Second, His Highness said, 'The imperial edict is the imperial edict, and I will obey it.' Then, then

What order does Your Highness want to follow?"

Xie Qian said "Yeah", slapped his thigh and said, "To come out of the cabinet to give lectures early is to resist the imperial edict, and to delay leaving the cabinet to lecture is also to resist the edict!"

"Well..." Xu Shoufu finally hummed after listening for a long time, "That's it for this matter."

He calculated his time, and when this matter was completed next year, he would be almost retired, and he would have an explanation to His Majesty, the ministers, and himself.

"Master Xu, wait a minute." Li Dongyang stroked his beard, still thinking, "I couldn't say when Yang Tinghe was here. Now that he is gone... I still can't help but wonder who taught His Highness."

"You can think about it, this person knows what happened in the East Palace

The cabinet must have known about it, so they deliberately let the prince say those words; they understood the key point of the dispute between His Majesty and us, so they came up with a compromise; they also knew the core of the matter of the East Palace giving lectures. Such people..."

When he said this, except for Xu Pu, who felt like he was about to fall asleep and had no expression at all, the other two people, Liu Xie and Liu Xie, looked a little moved.

"Binzhi (characterized by Li Dongyang) means...?"

"If it's not Yang Tinghe, he must be a eunuch from the East Palace. Such a person's talent will certainly stir up trouble in the court, so we must be on guard."

This put a layer of gloom in everyone's mind.

Li Dongyang is very resourceful and he also asks good questions.

But after thinking about it carefully, I didn't have any clue, so I had to let it go, "No matter what, among the many aspects of today's matter, the one that makes me most relieved and excited is the filial piety of the prince. Filial piety comes first among all good deeds, and I, the people of the Ming Dynasty,

You are blessed."

As long as the children are filial, even if they are slightly lacking in intelligence, what is there to fear?

When the Ming Dynasty seeks talents from all over the world, is it afraid that it will not be able to find a few assistants?

Thinking about this, I feel more satisfied and recognized with the current Crown Prince.

But he said that Yang Tinghe had withdrawn from the cabinet and it was getting late.

After returning home, I sorted out today's notes and then prepared to return home.

However, when leaving the Forbidden City, Zhang Tianrui, who had been following him, sneaked up and said, "Jie Fu, please stay."

"Mr. Wenxiang (Zhang Tianrui)," Yang Tinghe said with a bow.

Zhang Tianrui stepped forward and got closer, "Jie Fu violated a taboo, but this time Xu Shoufu summons him, he will return safely."

Yang Tinghe thought to himself, why did he say this so firmly before he opened his mouth?

Although both of them were Zhongyun, Zhang Tianrui was older, so he guessed correctly. Yang Tinghe didn't mind asking for advice: "Mr. Wenxiang, please clarify my doubts."

Although Zhang Tianrui fell in front of the prince during the day, he seemed to have some concerns about pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages. "Jiefu thinks about it carefully, ministers like you and I have just had contact with the prince. That day, the chief minister

What’s the name of punishing someone with thunder?”

With just such a sentence and a simple call, Yang Tinghe understood it instantly.

Yes, if the Chief Assistant does this, it will give people the impression of being too arrogant and domineering.

It seemed that the opportunity in front of the prince belonged to him, Xu Pu. A chief assistant who was about to retire would not do such a thing, especially with Xu Pu's past style, he would not do such a thing.

Yang Tinghe then wanted to understand, no wonder Xu Pu was so fierce today, and the three elders Liu, Li, and Xie didn't say a word.

It was precisely because I knew that I didn't say a word.

Because as I said, it is unwise for Mr. Xu Ge to be the bad guy and you to be the good guy.

Yang Tinghe thought again that Zhang Tianrui, who was already so old and had almost no political future, had this insight.

Sure enough, the officialdom is deep...

"In addition, Jie Fu, His Highness suddenly summoned you to your side today. Something suddenly happened... Master Yu De's side..."

Yang Tinghe frowned, Zuo Yude was their immediate superior.

According to their duties, they are responsible for teaching and assisting the crown prince, and they are usually the ones who give lectures to the crown prince.

Now Zhu Houzhao is still young. If he becomes an adult and participates in political affairs, he will inevitably need to write memorials. At this time, Zuo Yude will be the prince's secretary.

Today's matter is somewhat taboo, and my immediate superior will still feel it.

For example, the way you behaved in front of the prince, did you want to replace me?

Once it reaches this level, Yang Tinghe's disposal methods will not work.

Because at this point the dispute between the two sides is not whether what you taught is right or not, but whether what you did should be done properly.

Yang Tinghe was also helpless,

But he knows that there is no choice in this world that is both beneficial and harmless.

The prince suddenly summoned him. There were not many such opportunities, and the time was short. If he wanted to make some efforts, he could only do this.

I thought in my heart that it would be nothing. The soldiers would come to block it, and the water would come and the earth would cover it.

"Jiefu understands. Thank you Mr. Wenxiang for reminding me."

Yang Tinghe left the palace step by step, leaving only his back. After many years of peace, just a small movement caused so many changes.

This is the Forbidden City, not a place of unlimited pleasure and freedom.

Now that the waves are rising, the way forward needs to be figured out step by step.

Zhu Houzhao, who was accompanying his father in the Qianqing Palace, was also waiting for the result.

To be honest, no matter how perfect each link is imagined, it will always be unknown until the last moment.

This is also a lesson he learned in his previous life. If the money is not in your account, you can't believe it even if the other person shaves all the hair off his chest and says he will remit the money tomorrow.

All "almost done" may turn into "not done" due to changes in any factor. Then someone will give you a reason, saying that there is nothing you can do about the situation.

Emperor Hongzhi, who drank medicine last night and had another day of rest today, finally felt much better in the evening.

He didn't have any serious illness, but he was weak. He had worked too hard before and was in a bad mood because of studying in the East Palace. That's why he fell ill.

Now the prince is more sensible and is no longer as playful as before. Instead, he stays with him in Qianqing Palace for a long time. After this period, the emperor's heart has calmed down a lot.

The old eunuch Xiao Eunuch said: "Thanks to the blessing of our ancestors and your highness being so filial, your majesty has a good son, and the Ming Dynasty also has a good prince."

He probably knows how to talk. Anyway, Hongzhi is happiest when he praises his son.

As expected, the emperor's face was filled with joy, "I really want to see Zhao'er grow up to be an adult. By then, my Ming Dynasty will also have successors!"

After another day, the emperor's health gradually improved, so he ordered the morning court to resume.

Zhu Houzhao was also quite concerned about this news.
