Zhengde changed into casual clothes. As soon as the imperial carriage entered the capital, he left the brigade and followed Liu Jin and others back to the palace. He walked on the streets of the capital with Yangling. The imperial carriage guards were quietly spread around, protecting his actions.

Zhengdedao: "The Japanese envoy will arrive in Beijing tomorrow?"

Yang Ling said: "Yes, my confidant is accompanying them to the capital. Honglu Temple has sent a ritual official to welcome them. However, the emperor did not see them so quickly. According to Wang Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, there are strict etiquettes for tribute, when to go to court, what clothes to wear, kneeling and standing up, standing upward, standing upward, and offering tributes. The procedures for training their envoys must be made in detail, so as to ensure that there will be no mistakes in the ceremony of the emperor's reception."

Zhengde sighed: "I am impatient and meet a slow doctor."

Yang Ling smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, set up a naval commander, a customs office, and a coastal commerce group. You will eventually decide these things. There are so many things to be busy with. When the Japanese mission comes, their mission will be over. Let the Ministry of Rites worry about when to receive them and what specifications it is.

The emperor should now care about the candidates for the Minister of War and the Ministry of Personnel. One of these two yamen is in charge of military generals and the other is in charge of civil servants. It is the most important yamen of the court. Civil and military officials are the emperor's right-hand man and cannot be careless."

Zhengde frowned and said, "From my good friend's opinion, who can succeed the position of Shangshu?"

How dare Yang Ling recommend it casually? He said vaguely: "The emperor can summon three great ministers tomorrow. They know all the officials in the court well and can definitely propose suitable candidates."

"Okay," Zhengde nodded. Then he sniffed his nose and said happily: "What does this taste like? It smells so good, go and take a look."

There is a small stall in the corner of the road in front. The iron pot is red and the oily one is very mouth-watering. It turns out to be a Beijing snack enema.

This thing has been popular since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. The pig intestines are filled with more than ten seasonings such as flour, red custard water, cloves, cardamom, etc. After cooking, slice them and fry them in lard, and pour them with salted garlic juice. The taste is crispy.

Zhengde had never seen such things. He smelled the smell and wanted to go over and taste it. More than a dozen alert guards had already rushed over and occupied several tables. The rest were scattered around. Zhengde and Yangling entered the middle and called two plates of enema. Yangling and he ate and chatted.

He had already figured out the nature of this little emperor. He was full of energy and had the ambition to do something big, but he was very playful. It was extremely difficult to ask him to sit down and think about something seriously. This way, he would be more efficient.

Such old ministers in the court naturally believed that since they were the emperor, they seemed to be born a saint, and no one had ever treated the emperor as an ordinary playful boy.

Yang Ling was able to do everything in front of Zhengde, but Zhengde trusted him very much. With several major events, he increasingly regarded Yang Ling as the most reliable person. In addition, Yang Ling knew how to use the personality traits of young people to prescribe the right medicine, which is also a reason.

While watching the street push carts carry loads. Hawkers and pedestrians selling along the street came and went, eating snacks, Yang Ling had regularly rotated the navy and naval generals. The navy fleet was divided into four fleets: the North Sea, the East Sea, the South Sea and the Inner Sea to check and balance each other, as well as establishing three major shipyards in Jinling, Songhua River and Quanzhou, and establishing the Maritime Department. The customs office, one for tax regulating, tax checking, and the other for tax collection, and the other for tax payment, quietly introduced the concept of Zhengde, which gave him a clear concept.

At this time, in the leopard room, Xie Yu, Xihua stood on the high tiger pool platform. He threw a rooster down, and the four tigers that were lazily lying on the ground suddenly jumped up, let out a roar, and rushed towards the chicken.

The poor rooster spread its wings and crowed for a moment, and was picked up by a tiger that jumped up in the air. The other tigers turned around and left in a bad mood, and lay in the sun again in the sun.

Jie Yu said strangely: "Is this tiger the king of tigers? Why don't those tigers compete with it?"

A little eunuch next to him replied with a smile: "Miss, I don't know that tigers are the king of all beasts. They are extremely arrogant. Since the prey has fallen into the mouths of other tigers, they are disdainful even if they are hungry."

Xie Yu, although Xihua has been in the world for many years, she has never raised giant beasts. At that time, the acrobatic group at that time raised a few horses and a few monkeys at best. They looked into the pool strangely. Sure enough, the tiger that snatched a rooster and chewed heavily on the ground, and the other tigers didn't even look at it.

Xie Yu couldn't help but feel a hint of mockery on his lips, and he sneered: "What are the majestic beasts talking about the king's power! If it is so hungry that it has no food for grass roots and bark, it wants to split its own flesh and blood with a sharp axe and put it in a pot to cook. Will it still keep the king of beasts arrogant? I'm afraid the tiger will turn into a dog!"

The little eunuch didn't know why this woman who always smiled sweetly said such terrifying words, so she was slightly stunned. When Xihua turned around, she touched Jieyu with no trace on her shoulder. Jieyu stopped talking.

A servant was walking up the woods and buckets ahead. When Xihua saw his eyes lit up, he quickly called out: "Stop, I want to wash my hands. Oh, you guys wait, don't have to serve you anymore."

As soon as she pulled the explanation, the two hurried over. They had just grabbed the rooster and had a strange smell on their hands. It was reasonable to wash their hands. Several young eunuchs who were serving were waiting by the tiger pond.

The two walked to the small road, bent down and washed their hands in clean water. The servant looked at no one around and whispered: "The news spread to the small land. Yangjiaping was swept away by the Tatars in the battle of Jimingyi. There were not many old people in the clan left, and the genealogy was also lost.

The living Yang family said that the Yang family had two distant relatives named Tang, but they had nothing to do with Yangling. This Tang Yixian was very suspicious. Maybe it was a beauty plan set by Yangling to control the emperor. The Three Heavenly Master said that the emperor was very obsessed with this woman. Once she was allowed to enter the palace, it would be unfavorable to you. Yangling's status was stronger and would also be of great harm to this sect."

While gently lifting the water flowers, Sha Hua said quietly: "What is the Three Heavenly Master's idea?"

The man glanced in a hurry and said in a low voice: "We can't get close to the Yang Mansion, so there is no way to do it. Since the emperor favors her, you can find a way to let the emperor bring her to the leopard room and then use... As long as she is found out, if it is as we expected, then someone in the church can inspire Guo Xun and his group to report to the court.

A woman with unknown identity came to find a dangerous woman who pretended to be close to the emperor by believing her relatives. She was in danger of being powerful, and she was the most suspicious of her crime. She had to peel off her skin even if she didn't die."

He saw that several eunuchs were waiting for him and hurriedly lifted the bucket and sang: "Little Land is leaving." After saying that, he lifted the bucket and left. He whispered, looked at each other with shame, and shook the water droplets on his hands as if nothing had happened and went back to greet him.

Zhengde left the palace. He was so free and comfortable. Fortunately, although he was playful, he knew that state affairs should not be put aside. He still brought important memorials from the General of the Lishu every day to review them.

Seeing that it was getting late, Zhengde was overjoyed, and remembered that there were still memorials but he had not approved it, so he got up and returned to the leopard room. Yang Ling protected the leopard room all the way. He remembered that the Japanese mission would come to Beijing tomorrow, and Cheng Qiyun came with the Japanese mission, and this matter was made by himself. He must be welcomed by then. He wanted to rest early, so he said goodbye and left.

Yang Ling walked to the porch at the main entrance of the Leopard Room. Before he could go out, he was facing a little eunuch. The little eunuch couldn't help but be happy when he saw him, "Mr. Yang!"

Yang Ling looked at the face and couldn't help but wonder: "Who is this father-in-law?"

The little eunuch hurriedly gave a tribute and said, "I am Xiao Dingzi from Princess Yongchun's Mansion. I have seen the adults in the palace several times. That day, the empress "loved silkworms" and the one who helped the princess get out of the sedan chair outside the palace gate was the one who helped the princess get out of the sedan chair."

Yang Ling didn't remember a little eunuch who helped the princess get out of the sedan chair. He smiled and said, "Oh... I remember, why did my father-in-law come to the leopard room? Is it your highness who sent you to the place?"

When Yang Ling asked, Xiao Dingzi's grandfather suddenly became angry. He was the one who was close to Yongchun. When he saw Yang Ling several times, he saw this master talking and laughing with His Highness the Princess. He was also welcomed to Jizhou to visit the princess. His relationship with each other was naturally excellent. Moreover, Yongchun had already told him to give instructions when he saw Lord Yang.

Xiao Dingzi tied his sleeves and said angrily: "Mr. Yang, the two princesses went to Jizhou with the sage. Unexpectedly, after returning, General Luo of the Ministry of Internal Affairs reported to the Empress, saying that the two princesses had left the palace beyond the rules and should be severely punished. Now the Ministry of Internal Affairs has cut the princess' monthly silver, and the people who served in the mansion have halved. Even the candles used at night mean that they can only use a few, so the princess was so angry that she cried.

However, the Empress sent a female official from Shanggongsi, and refused to allow the princess to take action. She said she would be suspended for ten days. The princess sent her to come out to complain to the emperor. By the way, the princess said she should be careful, and maybe the princess would cause trouble for you."

Luo Xiang? Luo Xiang is profit-oriented and timid. He will take the initiative to ask for punishment for the princess? Luo Xiang and Liu Jin are very close, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs is under the jurisdiction of the politicians...

Yang Ling suddenly understood a little, and felt a little funny in his heart: Liu Jin was jealous and hated me, and even the royal family who were close to me hated me. He was really short-sighted. In addition to offending the two princesses, the empress dowager would also have a grudge. What's the use of this move? Will you climb up to that little queen?

He shook his head disapprovingly. He probably wouldn't have gone back to make a big fuss about this little thing after hearing this. Zhengde himself was often scolded by all officials. The princess was confined to ten days and cut the silver for one month. How could he take this little thing in mind?

While thinking, Yang Ling was about to wave his hand to let the eunuch in, he suddenly felt excited: No, Liu Jin is indeed not a talented person, but he can't even tell the pros and cons of this. Besides, there are a few dog-headed military advisors around him, how could he play such a bad move?

He killed two birds with one stone! The princess was taken out by herself. Now the princess was severely punished by the queen, but she was reluctant to do so. What would she think in the eyes of others? Qiu Ju, Wei Bin, Gao Feng and others are not very frugal in front of Zhengde, but the power of control is of some use, and it is even more important to gather together.

I and Liu Jin are currently trying to bring these people to my side. If I treat the princess being punished as a trivial thing and let it happen, what will these people think of it? Will they just turn to Liu Jin?

What’s even more sinister is that if the emperor and nobles are punished and the emperor’s sister becomes a fact, it means that their trip is indeed beyond the rules. If the princesses are punished, will they be impunned?

The originally designed romantic and unrestrained manners and neglected the court etiquette system was based on the premise that all officials only impeach themselves, and they were delegated in a planned manner within the scope they could control. If the princess was confirmed, then the initiative would not be in her own hands. At that time, what was given up might not only be tax power, but also military power.

Yang Ling couldn't help but feel angry. Luo Xiang also had the courage to plot against himself. This is really a good person and was bullied. If he didn't give him any benefits or a fallen splash, he would only be more jealous. Who has the ability to deal with their plots every day!

Isn’t he good at slandering people? It’s not impossible, but it’s not true. Since Luo Xiang has come to the door to test the knife, then please ask him to be the chicken that warns the monkey!

Yang Ling had made up his plan, so he couldn't help but smile coldly, waved to Xiao Dingzi and gave a few instructions. Xiao Dingzi nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and temporarily avoided the doorman under the side corridor. Yang Ling turned around and walked back.

He knew that the emperor moved to the leopard room, and many of the palace's officials were far away. In order not to meet for a long time, Luo Xiang was alienated by the emperor, so he used the excuse of imperial meals and the cost of leopard room as an excuse to see the emperor every day and asked about his well-being.

The emperor's emperor's chief manager of the imperial kitchen was Miao Kui's confidant and was familiar with his relationship with Miao Kui. He also moved to the leopard room with him, which was specifically responsible for the emperor's diet. Yang Ling went straight to the imperial kitchen to meet the emperor's eunuch, and had a secret plan with him, and then rushed to the emperor's residence.

Luo Xiang had arrived at this time. He felt guilty when he saw Yang Ling. Although he had been with Liu Jin, he knew Yang Ling's position in front of the emperor very well. If Yang Ling knew that he was trying to make a decision, he would still be really timid in his heart.

Yang Ling looked at him with a smile and said indifferently: "Eunuch Luo, long time no see."

While eating snacks, Zhengde looked at the memorial. When he saw Yang Ling coming back, he couldn't help but wonder: "Why is Yang Qing back?"

Yang Ling smiled and said, "Emperor, the Japanese mission will be in Beijing tomorrow. The relevant ambassadors were originally responsible for the Ministry of Rites. But I heard that the Japanese were barbaric, and most of the missions to Beijing brought warriors and ronin. In the past, Ashikaga Yoshiman sent envoys to pay homage several times, and ronin caused trouble when he was drunk and troubled, and it was not as good as the lockdown or release. It was very difficult. I wonder if I would arrange a few great guards to come in to welcome the envoys. Once someone caused trouble, they could be taken down immediately to prevent the situation from escalating."

Zhengde praised: "Praise you for your careful thoughts, just do it this way. Please choose the people around me at will."

"Yes," Yang Ling agreed, stepped aside and looked at Luo Xiang asking the emperor whether the food was delicious or not, and what else needed to be done by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He suddenly interrupted casually, "I remembered that Eunuch Luo said that he had eaten. There was a kind of enema that was delicious, crispy and delicious. Eunuch Luo could prepare for the emperor at any time."

Zhengde remembered it and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes, just do it like this, I may want to eat at any time."

Luo Xiang knew about this kind of famous snack, but he didn't expect that the emperor would like to take this bite, so he quickly agreed respectfully, because Yang Ling was in the room, and he felt guilty and was always a little uncomfortable. He laughed for a while and then stood up to say goodbye.

Luo Xiang first went to the imperial kitchen and gave the emperor's instructions carefully. He was able to get his current position by relying on the emperor's favor, so he would naturally not be careless about serving the emperor.

The Eunuch Xi was full of energy and very slick. Officials of the Internal Affairs Office made a fuss about the emperor's fault. Luo Xiang often took advantage of the situation. At this moment, when he heard that the emperor wanted to eat enema, under his conscious induction, Luo Xiang fell into his trap without knowing it. Finally, after listening to the money he calculated, Luo Xiang was very happy and patted Eunuch Xi's shoulder and said, "Old Xi, it's not bad. I will transfer the money tomorrow, and it's settled."

Xiao Dingzi from Princess Yongchun's mansion hid in the doorman and saw Luo Xiang leaving. He immediately ran out and ran to the emperor's bedroom.

Children like to exaggerate their words, and Yang Ling, a guy who can use his mouth to incite people to take out coffin books to buy insurance, taught me. The tragic situation of the two princesses is really describing the sadness of the hearing, and the listener burst into tears.

Zhengde was originally smiling and indifferent. Anyway, his two sisters had no place to go in the palace, so he would be banned for a few days. However, when he heard that the officials of the Internal Affairs Office ran to the two imperial sisters' mansions, "rude and domineering" and took away half of the palace maids and maids who served him on the spot, withdrew monthly money, which made the two sisters cry and their faces gradually changed.

Finally, I heard that it was late now, but the amount of candles in Yumei's palace was limited. The girl sat in Youda's palace, and was so dark that she only burned three or two candles. She was so inconvenient to even eat. She immediately touched her hands and feet, and her nose couldn't help but feel sore.

Yang Lingxiu sighed, "Oh, if you don't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face, the Empress wants to enforce the palace rules, and just do it, so as not to follow the example. This sentence is very debatable. How much is cut? How to cut? Do you still understand the slaves? The Ministry of Internal Affairs pretends to be powerful, and this is also a different way to embarrass the emperor. Who said that the princess was announced by the emperor but failed to pass the Queen and Ministry of Internal Affairs?"

Zhengde was furious when he heard this, and slapped the table with a "slap" and cursed: "Luo Xiang is a bastard in front of me. I didn't expect that behind me, even my Di Yumei dared to bully me like this. Is my Di Yumei so shabby? Is my Di Yumei so miserable? I'm so sorry for me... so trusting him!"

Zhengde was not stopping his scolding. The headmaster Xi of the Imperial Household Department ran into the door with a big belly and a smile on his face, rubbing his fat and oily hands, "Your Majesty, General Manager Luo ordered that the emperor likes to eat enema, but I don't know when the emperor wants to eat it. If I want to use it today, I will immediately send the young man to the restaurant outside the front door of the leopard room to buy a few. Although that thing is only ten cents a piece, I can't help but put it. If the emperor wants to eat the enema made by our Imperial Household Department, it will take a while, and it will take about half a month to complete it."

"Uh? Little half a month? Eunuch Xi, you can use it for so long to buy some fat intestine seasonings? The emperor dares to delay his errands!" Yang Ling asked deliberately.

"How dare I? Lord Yang doesn't know anything. General Manager Luo ordered to build a new imperial kitchen, specializing in enema, and set up two chief and deputy general managers, and a group of chefs and servitude workers. It will take half a month to do it. General Manager Luo said that he would allocate 30,000 taels of silver every day to prepare..."

Zhengde didn't know the price of food and food, and he had no idea about the price. However, Eunuch Xi just said that a enema cost only ten cents, and the beast actually allocated tens of thousands of taels of silver to build houses and add people, and a few enemas. It was necessary to build a special kitchen and match a group of chefs? This was blatant embezzlement!
