Chapter 4: Meeting the Eight Tigers
"Why does Your Majesty cry?"
Zhu Houcan looked at Empress Dowager Zhang with red eyes, "Aunt Empress Dowager, my nephew only thought of my father. Since I was a child, my father taught me to be grateful. Empress Dowager, you can help me to the throne in times of danger. I am grateful to you. It is a pity that Jiang Bin and others killed the former emperor's brother, and wanted to rebel and usurp the country. I really want to die. Zhu Houcan's words are an old antique analysis. The foundation of his first entry into the court is not stable, so he must find Empress Dowager Zhang's support.
Empress Dowager Zhang's face darkened and her heart felt a little warm. She also had the responsibility for her son's destruction of the country.
"King Xingxian is really a good father. Your Majesty is intent. The Ai family is just a wife family, and this important matter should not be taken care of. The previous emperor has passed away, and it is not convenient for the Ai family to be his mother as his mother. Now I hope Your Majesty can be a good emperor who is diligent and loves the people."
After the conversation changed, Empress Dowager Zhang said coldly: "That Jiang Bin and those who are accomplices for tigers are just waiting for His Majesty to deal with it personally. As for the affairs of the court, Ai's family is inconvenient to ask about it. Please take care of your body as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, the Empress Dowager, I will definitely avenge my brother."
Seeing Zhu Houcan's face again showing a sense of distress, Empress Dowager Zhang asked curiously: "Is there something difficult for Your Majesty?"
Zhu Houcong's eyes were slightly red, "I thought of my father's spirit in heaven, but I didn't expect the Ming Dynasty to be handed over to me, and I felt very stressed. I missed my father's death the previous year, and I really wanted to posthumously award him a posthumous title to him."
After hearing this, Empress Dowager Zhang's expression changed slightly, "It is not convenient for the Ai family to make decisions on this matter. Your Majesty can discuss this matter with the court ministers."
....
"Kneel down to welcome the Empress Dowager"! Zhu Houcan knelt on the ground and watched Empress Dowager Zhang leave, feeling a little disappointed.
"Old antique said that although this Empress Dowager Zhang is a woman, she has some abilities, but now it seems that she is indeed the case." After all, Zhu Houcan was young and even if he was smart, he would be proud and ambitious.
In a blink of an eye, Zhu Houcong's face drew, "Empress Dowager Zhang kept silent about the posthumous title of his father. It seems that this matter is not easy to deal with"!
Looking at Huang Jin beside him, he suddenly thought of what Mr. Antique analyzed, "I heard that the ancestor emperor had eight tigers, and six people are still there now. Do you know where they are now?"
Huang Jin shrank his neck, "Your Majesty, I... I don't know."
Zhu Houcan shook his head, "You go and find these six people, it's not right to invite them." Huang Jin felt a secret when he heard this. He naturally hoped that he would make a fortune. Those people were old people in the palace, and once they were reused, they would be suppressed.
Seeing that Huang Jin was not moving at all, Zhu Houqi snorted coldly, "What are you still standing there? Is your skin itchy?"
Soon Huang Jin ran back again, "Your Majesty, the other three people you mentioned are not in the palace except Lord Zhang and General Manager Luo and Eunuch Ma."
Zhu Houcong's face darkened. He had been in the palace for a day. As eunuch slaves in the palace, those people still have not seen me yet. Zhu Houcong suddenly felt angry, but he thought of the old antique's instructions to him.
"Calm down, I want to be a wise king, calm down"!
"Okay, please tell me first of all these three people to see me."
The three of them naturally knew that Zhu Houcong had entered the palace, and the fate of them was just a matter of the new emperor's thoughts, but the three of them tacitly chose to stay at home and not leave.
Ma Yongcheng came to have a home outside the palace, but since the new emperor entered the palace, he has lived in the palace, "Lao Luo, when will Your Majesty summon us?"
Luo Xiang gave Ma Yongcheng a blank look, "What bad idea do you come up with? You are the nine-sect admirals who are in charge of two factories one by one. The new emperor will definitely rely on you. But I, the general manager of the palace, how can the new emperor not come to pay a visit? I am angry with the new emperor for nothing."
Just then, there was a noise outside, "The father-in-law, the Huang eunuch from the Qing Palace, has arrived, and Your Majesty wants to tell him to see him."
Ma Yongcheng and Luo Xiang looked at each other and understood in their hearts that the highlight was coming.
Zhu Houcong summoned several people naturally and was learned by Empress Dowager Zhang. Empress Dowager Zhang just shook her head, recited the Buddha's name, and continued to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddha's name.
In the Qing Dynasty, the two knelt down in front of Zhu Hougui, but there was no sign of fear on their faces. In their eyes, the new emperor was just a teenager, and he had to rely on them, such as his hometown slaves to assist him, otherwise they would not be the opponents of the ministers outside, and even their bones would be eaten.
I don’t know how long it took, but they felt a sore knee, but they didn’t hear the sound of getting up. Both of them were in their fifties, and their bodies couldn’t stand it after a long time.
The two suddenly felt a little nervous. Ma Yongcheng secretly looked up at Zhu Houcan, but saw Zhu Houcan's eyes that were inconsistent with his age. His eyes were filled with inviolable majesty and self-righteousness. Suddenly, he discovered that he had not seen that look for many years, and it seemed that he was still on Xiaozong last time.
Ma Yongcheng hurriedly lowered his head and his heart trembled. Luo Xiang, who was beside him, was still responding carelessly: "I have seen Your Majesty."
Dada, the knuckles hit the table and made a sound. At this time, it was particularly quiet. Luo Xiang asked again, "Slave Luo Xiang has seen Your Majesty."
Finally, Zhu Houcan spoke, "Luo Xiang, it's really hard to invite you, the general manager. I finally let me see you today, let me calm down."
Luo Xiang stood up directly without hesitation, and Zhu Houcan frowned when he saw it.
"Your Majesty is really busy yesterday, so I'm late to pay my respects. Please forgive me." Luo Xiang tried his best to pretend to be respectful, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that he did not have any respect at all.
Zhu Houcan nodded, "I know that I have just arrived, and I still have to rely on General Luo to take care of this palace. I feel very comforted by General Luo to take care of it. I will not be careless in the ceremony of the throne tomorrow. Let the ministers outside see our royal jokes for nothing, and I will bother General Luo to worry."
Luo Xiangxinxi seems that the little emperor still needs a mixed family.
"Where is where you are, sharing your worries for Your Majesty is something that I should do." At this time, Luo Xiang noticed that Ma Yongcheng was still kneeling.
Zhu Houcan slapped his forehead and said, "Look at my carelessness, Lord Ma please get up quickly."
Unexpectedly, Ma Yongcheng kowtowed suddenly, "I am guilty of my servant, please punish Your Majesty."
Luo Xiang looked at Ma Yongcheng in surprise, "Why doesn't this old guy play according to common sense? When we came, this guy encouraged me to give the previous emperor a color. Why did he become a slap? Is it necessary to retreat to advance?"
At this time, Ma Yongcheng's heart was also trembling. He believed that if the little emperor could not be satisfied today, what awaited him would be a miserable fate. Even if these eunuchs and slaves were powerful, they would be a castle in the air. If something happened to the ministers outside, someone would rescue them. If something happened to us, those eunuchs in the palace would have burned the incense!
"Oh"? Zhu Houcong asked with a little curiosity: "What is Lord Ma's crime?"
