Emperor Zhengde of Ming Dynasty

The Empress Dowager Zhang held Zhu Houzhao's hand. She couldn't let her children repeat the same mistakes as his father. She didn't allow Zhu Houzhao to love only one woman in her life. She wanted the emperor to have three thousand beauties in the harem, so she could no longer be a lonely family.

Zhu Houzhao entered the Cining Palace and inadvertently saw a pretty woman in a white robe standing in the crowd, as slim as a lotus out of water.

"Susu, you haven't come to meet your cousin yet?"

As soon as Empress Zhang finished speaking, the woman in the white robe came to Zhu Houzhao: "Cousin, have you forgotten me? I came to the palace several years ago."

Zhu Houzhao immediately began to search for Susu's shadow from his memory. He remembered that Emperor Hongzhi once mentioned that Zhang Susu was the eldest daughter of Zhang Heling, the Duke of Chang, and Zhang Heling was the younger brother of the Empress Dowager, so he was naturally the current uncle.

"You two brothers and sisters haven't seen each other for a long time, you go to the back garden and have a good chat, let's catch up!"

Zhu Houzhao turned to look at Empress Zhang, Erniang, and Sanniang, all of whom had smiles on their faces.

Zhu Houzhao immediately understood.

The queen mother deliberately brought Zhang Susu into the palace to have a relationship with herself...

If this girl can marry Zhu Houzhao, then their Zhang family will have two generations of queens, and the family status will be greatly improved throughout the Ming Dynasty.

In Zhu Houzhao's memory, this cousin was innocent and lively, beautiful and lovely. Now, it seems that her personality has not changed at all. In the world, everyone must be cautious when meeting the emperor, but she is not afraid at all.

Perhaps it was because Susu had been close to the Empress Dowager Zhang since she was a child. Even if she was facing the Son of Heaven, she did not feel nervous and unfettered.

"Cousin, my aunt asked us to go to the back garden. I always wanted to go, but I never had the chance. Can you go with me now?"

Susu asked with a pair of talking eyes.

"okay!"

Zhu Houzhao nodded and nodded, Zhang Susu came over immediately, holding Zhu Houzhao's arm, she did not regard this cousin as the emperor at all, in his eyes, he was just his own cousin.

Many eunuchs and court ladies followed Zhu Houzhao and Zhang Susu to the back garden of the Forbidden City.

"My aunt wanted to take me to the back garden to play, but I haven't had any free time. I heard that the scenery there is very beautiful. Now there are many flowers in bloom, and I have been looking forward to it for a long time..."

Zhang Susu held Zhu Houzhao's hand, and her footsteps were light and danced like a song...

In the Cining Palace.

The queen mother said to Erniang: "Second sister, do you think Zhao'er can like Susu? I always feel that Susu's personality is very similar to me. If Zhao'er doesn't like such a lively personality, then what if..."

Erniang said: "What is the queen mother worried about? A cousin and a cousin, the two have no guesses, they are brothers and sisters, childhood sweethearts, I think we will leave this matter alone, let them get along freely, and when the time is ripe, the queen mother, please write an edict. , it's done."

"Is this too decisive? I think that a large part of Zhao'er's child is not like his father, and Zhao'er is a very assertive person. If you force other people's will, it may not end well in the future."

"I think it's better to choose a few more concubines in the palace. After a hundred days have passed, I will let people choose a few women from all over the world."

"The Queen Mother, a lot of ministers in the palace have sent heavy gifts recently, and they all hope to send their daughters to the draft..."

"This is a matter for those ministers. They can give it away if they like. Zhao'er has to take care of the girl she likes. For the time being, don't worry about those ministers."

Empress Dowager Zhang turned to look at Sanniang: "Huiniang, why don't you speak?"

Sanniang: "I mean the same as your opinion, sister. The girl chosen by Zhao'er will be the queen in the future. I'm not saying that Susu is not good, but the queen must be dignified and virtuous in the future. world."

"I want you to take time to talk to Zhao'er about this matter. I think Zhao'er is an opinionated person, and she may not always accept our opinions."

"Okay, let's not talk about it. The three of us will check on Zhao'er in the future. It must be right."

"Come on, go to the back garden and see, how are Zhao'er and Susu playing?"

"Follow the order!" A little **** trotted towards the back garden.

In the back garden, Zhang Susu is innocent and unrestrained. She is only one year younger than Zhu Houzhao. She has just turned fifteen this year and is very cute.

"Cousin, the second aunt said she wanted me to hold your hand at any time. I don't understand what she meant. Oh, it's really hard to understand the thoughts of adults."

Zhang Susu pouted, but always held Zhu Houzhao's hand.

Zhu Houzhao immediately understood that this was really what Erniang meant.

In the entire Ming Dynasty harem, she was the only one who had this kind of heart, but the ancients said that men and women are not intimate, and ladies and gentlemen cannot see outsiders.

Like Zhang Susu, who has been holding her hand, there must be someone behind her to teach her, and this person is still very careful...

However, Zhu Houzhao has no messy thoughts. To Zhang Susu, he is the relationship between cousin and cousin.

As for the handle...

......

Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Zhu Houzhao walked around with his hands behind his back.

The case of Liu Jin involved Mu Bin, the commander of Jinyiwei, who was executed. Jinyiwei Qianhu Shen Lian was named the commander of Jinyiwei.

Zhu Houzhao frowned and asked, "How many Jin Yiwei people are there?"

"Your Majesty, there are 50,000 Jinyiwei in the capital, and in the rest of the UU reading www.uukanshu.com, there are more than 10,000 people who have been performing various tasks for a long time, a total of more than 60,000, but the real elite candidates are less than 10,000. ."

The Jinyiwei established in the Ming Dynasty was not a hereditary system.

That is to say, among the Jinyiwei, in the Zhengde period, most of the old, weak, sick and disabled.

The majority of people have been doing nothing in the capital for a long time, and there are not many people who actually perform official duties.

Jinyiwei!

This is the emperor of the Qing army. To put it bluntly, it is the anti-corruption department and the public security department of the Ming Dynasty. At the same time, it also shoulders the mission of the national intelligence department.

Like the meritorious aristocracy, it was an important part of making the emperor of the Ming Dynasty suppress the power of civil servants.

Not only suppressing civil servants, but Jin Yiwei was recognized as the earliest intelligence agency in later generations. It played a huge role in linking external operations and internal management.

"Shen Lian!"

"The minister is here!"

"I asked you to expand Jinyiwei in the capital, and let Jinyiwei return to its former glory. Do you see what I mean?"

Shen Lian immediately knelt down and said, "My minister, obey the order!"

"Shen Lian, do you know why I want Jin Yiwei to regain its former glory?"

"This, I don't understand for the time being, I hope Your Majesty will show you."

"Jinyiwei is the emperor's personal army. Externally, he can go on expeditions, internally, and monitor the ministers. In the capital, he can protect the emperor, and only obey the orders of the emperor. Outside, he can expand the territory. In a word, other military camps can do it. Yes, Jinyiwei must do it, and what other military camps can't do, Jinyiwei must also do it."

These words are similar to Yu Huatian's motto.

However, this is what Zhu Houzhao came up with, and the courtier still has to listen to the emperor's words.

This was Zhu Houzhao's request to Shen Lian, the commander of Jinyiwei.

In fact, this is true of the Jinyi Guards. As the emperor's pro-army, the staffing and combat effectiveness must be strong.

"Sir, I understand..."
