It's still dark, and another busy day has begun in Beijing.

The wives of officials got up early to change into court clothes for their husbands. The servants in the palace served millet porridge to the little babies raised at home. Some also got up to study.

The rooster crows in the morning, and small sedans are carried out from the alleys. Although there are many, it is not crowded. At this time, there should be no such thing as off-peak commuting?

The courtiers met, greeted, and lined up in front of the palace, waiting for the eunuch guarding the palace gate to open the door.

In the palace, the emperor had also stood up and changed his clothes.

The early morning of the empire started with the busyness of this group of people.

The courtiers outside the palace have begun to talk about the deeds of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince reciting half of "The Great Learning". People are praising each other. Maybe the Ming Dynasty will have another wise king?

There are bells and drums on the Meridian Gate. The eunuchs from the Bell and Drum Division beat the drums and bells, opened the palace door, and a group of officials filed in. After the whip was sounded, they crossed the Jinshui Bridge in turn and arrived at Fengtianmen Danqi.

The two sides stood facing each other and waited, with the civilian officials on the left and the military attaches on the right.

There is a throne in the middle of the upper corridor of Fengtian Gate, which is called the "Golden Platform". On the left and right side of the steps are the bands of the Bell and Drum Division. Between the pillars of the palace door are "generals of the Han Dynasty", wearing full armor. To the left and right of the royal road and behind the civil and military officials are

There is a school captain standing with a sword in his hand.

After the emperor arrived at the imperial gate, the Bell and Drum Division began to play music, and the imperial guards held five umbrella covers and four groups of fans, climbed up the Danqi from the east and west sides, and stood on the left and right behind the throne.

In the morning, the list of people entering and leaving Beijing will be discussed. Some emperors will receive them, some will not. In addition, there are also some urgent matters at the border.

Of course, education in the East Palace is also a top priority, and after discussions, someone has to bring it up.

The emperor was a person with a somewhat weak personality, otherwise he would not receive praise from Confucian students. Although he decreed that spring would be warm next year, he was actually prepared to be spit on.

"Cough!" Ordinary officials have to cough when leaving the queue. This is called "cleaning".

There is also a meaning of greeting in it,

Otherwise, at the same time, if you are out of line, I am out of line, and he is also out of line, wouldn’t it be a mess?

"I, the imperial censor Zhongcheng Xu Chun has written a memorial. There is a arrogant and arrogant statement made by Wan Tong in the matter, which offends Tian Yan and makes your majesty's body uneasy. This is really an act of disloyalty. I ask your majesty to remove him from his post and remove him from his official position!"

Wantong knew that he had caused the emperor's poor health, so even if there were any reasons for serving the country and the people, it was still unjustifiable.

The best way is to plead guilty and die.

The emperor won't kill you anyway, so how can you ask someone to give you advice after you kill him?

Wantong knew this, so after someone impeached him, he immediately went out and knelt down, "My lord, this is a capital crime!"

The emperor frowned, he didn't want to pay attention to this person at all.

He can't be killed, so I can ignore him.

Who told him to say that my son cannot become a talented person?

"I have already made a decision regarding the matter of giving lectures in the East Palace. The weather is getting cold now and the prince is young. I have decided to wait until spring gets warmer before taking action."

"My lord, I have a script to start this memorial!"

Suddenly, an official sang loudly and came out with an upright look on his face.

At this time, Liu, Li, and Xie all looked at Xu Shoufu.

It's starting, I don't know how Mr. Chief Assistant will balance today.

"Your Majesty, Qian Fu, the number one scholar in the third year of Hongzhi, once wrote a song called "Tomorrow's Song": Tomorrow comes tomorrow, and there are so many tomorrows! I live and wait for tomorrow, everything will be in vain! Your Highness, the Crown Prince, is about the country, the country, and all the people in the world cannot wait for a moment.

, Where will the warmth of spring be next year?”

As soon as this statement came out,

The emperor also remained silent.

In the past ten years, he has actually gotten used to it. No matter what happens, there will always be someone who will spray it from an angle.

Sometimes they will also 'attack in groups'.

It's just one person, it's not a big scene.

Moreover, the ministers of the Ming Dynasty were so bold that they dared to challenge the emperor. Another censor came forward and said: "Since the seventh year of Hongzhi, your Majesty has repeatedly delayed the matter of leaving the East Palace to give lectures.

Consecration. Your majesty’s love for your son is not ununderstandable to me. However, your highness is already seven years old. Children of common people at such an age should study with their teachers and live outside. What’s more, he is the crown prince who is the foundation of the world?”

What I said is to make it clear that we don’t believe what you say, Your Majesty. What about next spring? Last year, you said this spring!

And don't be angry, Your Majesty. We have been deceived until now, and we are still angry.

However, in the court, although the voices of the three or two people were full of energy, senior ministers like Xu Pu were always present and did not say a word.

The Crown Prince's words can be understood conversely, and not everyone can realize it.

The emperor didn't want to talk, so the ministers who presented the memorial talked randomly, and then he gradually became quiet?

Hongzhi was surprised, why didn't there be a crowd of people in the hall today to support the proposal?

His eyes couldn't help but drift to Xu Shoufu aside.

The old man put his hands in his sleeves and lowered his head. The emperor looked down from above and could see nothing but age spots on his cheeks.

But if he doesn't act, the emperor will look for him.

"Xu Aiqing, in your opinion, how should this matter be handled?"

Old man Xu can't hide anymore.

He slowly walked out of the team, raised his arm, and said, "Your Majesty. I would like to congratulate Your Majesty!"

"Oh?" This was said without any beginning or end, and Emperor Hongzhi didn't understand it very well. "What's my joy?"

Xu Pu spoke very slowly, "I have heard that there are rumors everywhere in the palace that His Royal Highness cannot bear His Majesty's hard work of reviewing memorials and wants to share His Majesty's worries! Isn't His Majesty's filial piety the joy of our Lord? Isn't it the joy of the Ming Dynasty?"

When it comes to praising your son, the more, the better.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "That's what happened. Thanks to the blessing of our ancestors, my prince is very sensible."

The emperor admitted it.

Naturally, all civil and military officials in the court knelt down and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Everyone has their own interpretation of Xu Pu's words.

The anxious minister knew after hearing this: The prince has shown his desire to learn, and your majesty loves the prince so much, so what's the problem?

Where is the emperor? He acknowledged the prince’s filial piety in front of all the civil and military officials.

Naturally, he recognized his son’s desire to read and write.

Since your son has this intention, as a father, in front of so many people, will you prevent your son from studying and progressing in the future?

Throughout the ages, there have been very few people who were so confused, right?

Xu Shoufu's words didn't seem to convey the meaning and were completely off topic, but he seemed to have said the most important meaning?

Studying in the warm spring next year is not only the emperor's wish, but also the prince's wish.

The emperor was not too stupid. With the consent of the chief minister, he felt more confident, "The prince is filial and has shown his devotion to the Holy Spirit and his intention to share the worries of his father and emperor. Do you still have any objections to being listed as a beloved minister?"

Prince...

The prince is just a child, and is this true or false?

The people in the court were murmuring, but it was not easy to ask questions directly on this occasion. They could not tell the emperor that you were lying, or ask the prince to come and prove it.

Below, Xie Qian came out and said, "Your Majesty, I have this memorial. I heard that Your Highness has been able to recite half of "The Great Learning". Among the people, this is a rare young genius. I think the remaining half of it will not be used for a long time."

Today, I therefore request Your Majesty to select a candidate to teach Your Highness the Holy Scriptures."

Originally, everyone still had doubts,

But Mr. Xie Ge suddenly took the matter one step further.

The fact that the prince recited half of "The Great Learning" is naturally known both inside and outside the country. Mr. Xie Ge was right, the second half also needs to be taught by someone. You can't just ask Zuo Zhongyun, right?

There is no shortage of teachers for the dignified prince, but he has not yet formally given lectures. In this case, who should be appointed will only be justified if the emperor nods.

So the ministers who were originally concerned about when they would give lectures became worried again. Because of the opportunity to get along with the prince every day, although it was only temporary, a teacher for a day was still a teacher.

"Mr. Xie Ge's words are reasonable, and I agree with you!"

"I second the proposal!"

…

…

Kunning Palace at this time,

Zhu Houzhao was chatting with his mother.

The queen is a mother to the world, and she is noble and graceful. Her maternal brilliance makes people feel warm and willing to get close to her.

"Zhao'er, my mother has heard about Zuo Zhongyun Yang Tinghe. Although this man has some talent, he is only a Jinshi. If you want to study and learn calligraphy, why did you only ask a junior official with average knowledge to teach you?"
