Liu Jian, the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, ranks first among all officials.

He was the most trustworthy person of Emperor Hongzhi. He was a bridge between the palace and the court. To some extent, he was almost no different from the prime minister.

Logically, he should not express any opinions on such matters.

But Yang Tinghe's words went astray, but Liu Jian raised his eyebrows slightly, and he finally spoke.

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Liu Jian. When Liu Jian said that he was too ruthless, Emperor Hongzhi was more or less suspicious and worried.

Although he felt that the prince had grown up and that what the prince said was reasonable, he felt that these remarks were somewhat distorted, and Liu Jian's words gave him a reassurance.

Yang Tinghe never expected that Liu Gong would get involved. His face suddenly changed. As a Hanlin, Qingliu in the Qingliu was still a Zhanshishima Mansion. To some extent, Yang Tinghe dared to contradict the emperor. This is called being upright.

But Mr. Liu is different. Mr. Liu is his Shangguan and the actual leader of all officials. Yang Tinghe is just a little Qingliu. Compared with the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion who was born in a Hanlin bachelor and became a prime minister, it is a bit ugly. When Mr. Liu was working as a Qingliu, you were still playing with mud with your butt naked.

Liu Jian smiled and glanced left and right. Obviously, even Xie Qian and Li Dongyang were surprised that Liu Gonghui suddenly made a statement.

Liu Jian continued: "Your Highness the Crown Prince has a very reasonable saying, the country is based on agriculture. Since your prince is my crown prince and personally farmed, it is actually setting an example for the military and civilians in the world."

He paused: "Although the Book of Encouraging Agriculture was written by Zhou Fang, a Hanlin scholar, this article was chosen by the minister and recommended it to the palace. This... was the old minister's mistake. When he read this article, the old minister also praised it. As the chief minister's grandson, the article recommended by the old minister was deviated from reality, and he really couldn't forgive him."

“…”

Emperor Hongzhi nodded secretly.

This...maybe it is the reason why he trusts Liu Jian.

If you have any mistakes, you will admit your mistakes and have the courage to take responsibility.

But admitting his mistake made Yang Tinghe feel helpless.

The Chief Minister of the Cabinet, the Grand Secretary, personally admitted his mistake and took the responsibility of persuading the books of agriculture. At this time, he continued to argue about the books of agriculture. Not only did he find a shot, but he also had no legitimate reason.

"If you are wrong, you are wrong. There is nothing you cannot recognize. You can correct your mistakes. It is great to be good." Liu Jian smiled: "Since the book of persuasion of farming is wrong, now the prince has personally set an example and practiced it himself. Isn't this effect ten times or a hundred times more significant than a book of persuasion of farming?"

Emperor Hongzhi was stunned, his eyes shining. I have to say that in terms of theoretical level, Liu Jian is indeed very clever.

What academic disputes, what science, new learning.

Are these controversies important?

In fact, it is indeed very important.

But what does this matter? At least for the emperor, the prince is willing to experience the sufferings of the people, which is a great blessing. For the palace, the people of the world know that His Royal Highness personally serves as a model to farm in the West, then... wouldn't it be more useful than urging farmers to books?

Liu Jian’s focus was not on the dispute between schools and doctrines, but he analyzed the interests of the palace thoroughly. This matter would be of great benefit to the palace, and nothing else was important.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and nodded repeatedly: "I agree with what Liu Qing said."

Liu Jian said lightly: "However, the Crown Prince's out of the city to study is related to the safety of His Highness. The old minister is quite worried. Therefore, the old minister thinks that it is better to strengthen the garrison in the West Mountain."

Emperor Hongzhi thought: "Transfer a military horse to the west mountain to prevent accidents?"

Liu Jian nodded.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "To draw up a charter, not only that, but the prince's conduct also needs to be strengthened..."

"Father..." Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but interrupt: "My son thinks, no."

“…”

Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly. Just now, you started to open a dyeing shop just after praising you, right?

Zhu Houzhao said seriously.

"My son learned from Mr. Wang, and as a scholar Zhu Shou, if such a big fight, wouldn't this Xishan become a military servant's house? Mr. Wang is going to experience it, seeking knowledge and tempering himself. If he makes such a big fan, would Mr. Wang still dare to teach? How dare other scholars? Even the miners and farmers in the Xishan Mountain dare not approach Mr. Wang."

Zhu Houzhao said: "Because I have experienced the sufferings of the people, I have made such a big fight and finally became a formality. Not many people know about this matter. As long as it is not revealed, the factory guards secretly sent some protection. There is another Yulin Thousand Household House in the West Mountain, which is enough to ensure the safety of the children..."

Zhu Houzhao hates such a big fanfare. If it is really as planned by his father, it will be boring.

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but feel trembling, remembering why Fang Jifan asked himself if he wanted to change his image so that his father would no longer treat him as a child, and said he had a way.

Now... isn't the effect significant? Lao Fang really has a solution.

Zhu Houzhao has now gradually begun to grasp the rhythm, took a deep breath, began to grasp the vein, and said with a sigh.

"It is the purpose of the son minister who is suffering and enjoying the people's happiness. If he loses this original intention, then it is better to study in his study. The son minister naturally knows the kindness of his father, but the son minister thinks that there are not so many thieves in this world... Did the father forget that the father is most happy to take the son minister out of the palace to wander around at night..."

“…”

Damn...

This time, the warm room... became embarrassing.

Fang Jifan has a feeling of being a dog.

He suddenly remembered the records in the Ming Dynasty: "The emperor once led Qinggong (the prince) out of the palace at night and went to the Liuke Gang. Qinggong (the prince) loudly said: "Where is this?" The emperor shook his hand and said: "If there is no such thing as the six subjects." The prince said: "Are the six subjects not the superior ministers?" The emperor said: "The ancestors set up six subjects to correct the king's virtues and disobeyed, and had heard of them, and corrected the impeachment memorials.

It's time to arrive."

This conversation comes from Ming history and record. It records that Emperor Hongzhi and the prince went out of the palace to wander around. Passing by the place where Liubukedao went to work, the prince spoke loudly, but was stopped by Emperor Hongzhi. The prince said that these were not our ministers, what were they afraid of?

Emperor Hongzhi said that the responsibility of the Six Ministry of the Kedao is to correct the faults of the emperor. Once they know that we are out of the palace and traveling at night, the impeachment memorial will soon come. If you can't afford to offend or provoke, you can't afford to offend, don't let others know.

This conversation should have been recorded by the eunuchs of daily life. To put it bluntly, it is private. Moreover, from the prince’s question why the six subjects were so awesome, it can be seen that the prince should have been very young at that time.

Now, Zhu Houzhao revealed the old story directly, which means that the father took Erchen out of the palace every night, and nothing happened. Look, what could happen to me now?

"..." Emperor Hongzhi's face turned blue and red, and he didn't know what to say.

Is this son missing a string in his mind?

What... His Majesty actually took the prince out for a long time at night?

Liu Jian was also a little embarrassed. I wonder if he should say something and impeach it? Or pretending to hear nothing?

Xie Qian lowered his head and looked tired, as if he was overwhelmed. As an old minister, he could no longer bear it.

Li Dongyang's Mu Ruo was stunned and didn't hear it.

Yang Tinghe wanted to take this opportunity to criticize him, but now... he is in a mess.

Wang Hua was so amused and crying. Looking at the others, they all looked deaf. They wanted to say something, but they still swallowed it back.

Zhu Houzhao was honest and thought he was right. When his father finished his memorials all day long and took his son to wander around at night, he didn't bring many guards. Why did he have to make such a big fuss when he went to Xishan by himself now?

"What's more, at the beginning..."

"Okay, okay!" Emperor Hongzhi held his hands tightly.

I had a headache when I mentioned it.

Emperor Hongzhi glared at Zhu Houzhao: "Since that's the case, just send additional secret guards. You need to talk nonsense, why do you talk so much?"

Zhu Houzhao said: "My son is just a momentary indifference."

Emperor Hongzhi felt relieved and turned cold: "Today's affairs are secrets and must not be spread. Otherwise, there will be traitors who will take the opportunity to plan for the prince, and you will be no different from the rioters."

Keep the secret. Not only can the prince’s whereabouts be revealed, but the night trips must not be revealed either. Otherwise, you can consider the consequences yourself. If something happens, I will naturally find you.

"But... Your Majesty..." Yang Tinghe was unwilling to accept it and looked at Emperor Hongzhi pitifully: "Have you taken farming as your priority since then?"

"There is nothing wrong with learning and entertainment." After receiving the support of Liu Jian, Emperor Hongzhi seemed to have a calm mind, and he had no expression on his face: "Since you are the Secretary of the Zhanshi Mansion, you will always put the prince first. If it is beneficial to the prince, what's wrong?"

Yang Tinghe felt a stern.

Your Majesty has always rarely criticized others, but this sentence is very heavy, and he blames himself for being a secretary of the Zhanshu family. He does not want to educate the prince well, but it hinders the prince from studying. He said in panic: "I will die."

Emperor Hongzhi ignored him and then looked at Wang Hua with a smile: "Wang Qing family, you have a good son."

Wang Hua was so amused and crying, good... his good son has been expelled from the house by himself, and it is also a blessing that there is no newspaper in this era. Otherwise, with Wang Hua's temperament, he would have been published in the newspaper to break away from the father-son relationship.
