The most reckless man in the Ming Dynasty

Zhu Houzhao panicked a little.

He wanted to refute Tang Hao's words.

But when he thought back to the "Nanyuan Tiger Case", the little emperor swallowed back the words as soon as they came to his lips.

Yes, why don't they dare?

Even Liu Jin, who had grown up with him since childhood, could use himself to set up a trap for power without any regard for his own safety, let alone these civil servants and gentry?

Some thoughts, once they arise, will never be eliminated and will spread and grow like weeds!

Tang Hao also slowed down and spoke meaningfully.

"I was still thinking of letting you play a game of chess with me."

"If you want to enrich the country and strengthen the army, just from the literal meaning, it is inseparable from the two ministries."

Damn it?

Kunning Palace.

"Let's wait and see!"

Tang Hao pointed out the purpose of "riching the country and strengthening the army", and the first ones to bear the brunt were the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War!

Zhu Houzhao looked at Tang Hao deeply and finally nodded.

"Silly Queen, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Then he turned around and left.

"Tang Hou, thank you for your help this time!"

Nima land?

The Holy Body of the Innate Eunuch?

If we don't seize this opportunity, when the beauty is gone in the future, His Majesty the Emperor will be surrounded by many beautiful concubines. Even if there are no concubines in the harem, he can still choose from all over the world. By then, she, a childless queen, will not only become a joke , will also bear infamy, and in the end can only give up his position sadly.

Li Dongyang and Liu Jian had a quarrel all because of the incident involving the Metropolitan Procuratorate wielding weapons.

Queen Xia didn't understand the latter sentence, but she keenly captured a key name.

Tang Hao smiled happily and continued to pick up the wine jar and prepare to drink.

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Jian looked up at Tang Hao, with a hint of solicitation in his eyes.

Liu Jian lost again.

"I didn't expect Lord Yuanfu to be so simple."

Hearing this, Chen Kuan was immediately shocked and looked at Tang Hao in disbelief.

Hearing these words of concern, Queen Xia couldn't help but shed tears.

"Lord Yuan Fu, I won this game just now!"

"Don't be joking, Daxuan. Believe it or not, I'll beat you up!"

The first assistant Liu Jian asked Tang Hao to slow down and not to act too hastily.

There is both admiration and fear.

"If your Majesty wants to revive the Ming Dynasty, you must enrich the country and strengthen the army!"

I have to admit that the queen mother knows him best and knows what kind of queen he likes.

The implication is that the rest of the temple supervisors can be postponed, but the reform of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War is imperative, especially the Ministry of Household Affairs, which is in charge of the world's money and food. There is no reason to slow down!

The corruption of the salt administration cannot be blamed on Han Wen. After all, it happened several times before him. But the problem is that you, Han Wenming, knew about the corruption of the salt administration and all the hidden dangers of the Naoliangkaizhong. But you didn't Not to mention, just watching the imperial court implement Nayin Kaizhong would be a bit suspicious of "eating with a corpse"!

The news at this moment came from Xichang's spy. After Chen Kuan learned about it from Gu Dayong, he felt it was necessary to tell Tang Hao.

"Okay." Tang Hao smiled and nodded, "But regarding the salt administration, those salt field officials, and the salt official system are going to change."

Chen Kuan looked at Tang Hao's burly back with complicated expressions in his eyes.

"What he can do for the country is the most important!"

After hearing this, Tang Hao suddenly raised his head and said with a smile: "Han Wen, is he from Yuan Fu?"

No matter how calm and dignified Queen Xia is, no matter how quiet she is, she can't just stay alone in an empty room.

Marquis of Zhongshan, Marquis of Zhongshan, you are so outstanding and outstanding. When the civil servants and gentry are defeated, can the inner court still control you?

Giving birth to a dragon son is the queen’s first priority!

"Li Dongyang came to see me today and wanted me to stop the Metropolitan Procuratorate from purging the military department, but I refused."

Liu Jian had no expression on his face when he heard this, neither admitting nor refuting.

The attitude of the inner court was naturally to fully support the Marquis of Zhongshan.

"I know very well that the Ministry of War is only the first, and will never be the last. So before that, I suggest you slow down a bit and don't act too hastily. What do you think, Marquis Tang?"

Queen Xia was sobbing softly.

"I, my concubine, meet the Emperor!"

Marquis of Zhongshan, Tang Hao!

"It doesn't matter who he is!"

Tang Hao: "???"

If a mediocre person is replaced, it will undoubtedly be even more unsuitable for the implementation of the New Deal.

"Strengthening the army is the responsibility of the Ministry of War. Xu Jin, the new Grand Sima, once inspected the nine borders to rectify border affairs, and also led the army to charge into battle to regain Hami. Therefore, he understands the sufferings of the soldiers and the people. He can ask for orders for the soldiers and the people. This is what he can do. The real reason for becoming Minister of War!”

Liu Jian picked up a white piece and placed it on the chessboard. He ignored Tang Hao and said to himself.

"Don't worry, I'm not leaving."

Therefore, when the burly Tang Hao sat inside, it seemed very cramped and uncomfortable.

"We are husband and wife, and we should face whatever happens together. Do you hear me?"

Suddenly, Queen Xia was hit by a huge surprise and was stunned on the spot.

"No, what are you doing?"

Everyone is in danger and in turmoil. This is not an empty talk!

If Tang Hao purges the Ministry of War and then attacks the other five departments, then this Fang Chaotang will probably never have peace!

Slowing down the pace and slowing down the New Deal was the real purpose of Liu Jian's meeting with Tang Hao.

As a result, Zhu Houzhao stood up suddenly and left directly.

For example, if the Ministry of War ushered in a major purge, what would the officials from other temple supervisors think when they met?

After all, there are three types of unfilial piety. The greatest is not having an heir. The emperor’s first priority is to spread the branches and leaves!

Where did you win?

"Uh...what kind of chess are you doing?"

Facing Queen Xia's hopeful look, Zhu Houzhao immediately laughed and nodded.

"This is simply the material to be born as a eunuch in the palace!"

Later, the young emperor adopted Tang Hao's suggestion and ordered the eunuch Zhang Zhong to lead the four guards to clear the palace. Only then did he finally save his last face as the emperor.

Liu Jian was thinking about the conversation just now, when suddenly Tang Hao opened the car curtain and stretched his head in.

"Your Majesty, please punish me. It is my concubine who summoned the Zhang family brothers..."

Tang Hao praised him sincerely, and Liu Jian smiled when he heard the words, which seemed to be quite helpful.

"After so many years, Han Wen's temper has never changed. He was the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue in the 17th year of Yu Hongzhi. As soon as he took office, he took up the seven problems of salt administration. He argued with the late emperor many times and refused to implement the unreasonable actions of the late emperor. Required, so you said that he was a vegetarian, which is inappropriate!"

I never imagined that I did bad things with good intentions and made His Majesty furious. What should I do now?

Just now the eunuch came to report that His Majesty the Emperor had a big quarrel with the Queen Mother, and was trying to find out who had let the Zhang brothers into the palace.

"I will stay in Kunning Palace every night from now on. If I don't come, you can send someone to remind me!"

"If the emperor and the empress are in harmony and have a dragon son, then the harem can be completely peaceful and there will be no more troubles. Does Daxuan understand what I mean?"

Let me go to your uncle’s house!

After all, Tang Hao and Li Dongyang are fighting to the death. Either you die or I die, and there is no room for relaxation.

"Da Xun, if you have something to do, please mention the Queen to Your Majesty first."

Immediately, the East Factory and the West Factory were not idle, and they began to place spies around these Jiuqing officials and cabinet ministers. One by one, no one could escape.

"On the Queen Mother's side, you must pay attention in the future. If there are any orders that you are not sure about, you can send someone to tell me."

In fact, since she was designated as the queen, many people have told her that if she wants to secure her position as queen, she must get pregnant and give birth to a dragon child as soon as possible, so that she can completely secure her position in the middle palace.

"Savage, I understand what you mean!"

And the beauty in front of me is undoubtedly the best choice.

"Huh? Queen, why are you crying?"

Zhu Houzhao opened his hands and embraced Queen Xia in his arms, and comforted her in a gentle voice: "This matter was originally the mother's idea and has nothing to do with you, so don't take it too seriously."

Liu Jian replied with a smile: "This is the right thing to do. Don't worry, Marquis Tang!"

Tang Hao walked out of the palace gate and grinned at Chen Kuan.

After all, Zhang Fuhua and Xu Jin were rushing to that scene as officials from the Ministry of War in Huguang. One by one, they were all dismissed from their posts and investigated!

Liu Jian was stunned when he heard this, and looked subconsciously, only to see five black stones in a line on the chessboard, and all his white stones next to them.

So, this knife actually struck Li Dongyang's aorta!

Don't underestimate the officials in these government offices, they form the backbone of the Huguang Township Party!

The Huguang Township Party above the court is roughly dominated by Li Dongyang, the scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, Liu Daxia, the minister of the Ministry of War, Xiong Xiu, the left minister of the Ministry of War, and others. They either hold important positions or hold real power. Anyway, they can influence the situation of the court. Big shot!

And the middle level are these officials who are spread across six ministries and hundreds of departments. After all, the orders issued by Li Dongyang, Liu Daxia and others still need their own people to implement and implement them!

Now that Zhang Fuhua accepted the invitation, he directly raised his knife and struck at the Ministry of War. At least the Huguang Township Party members in the Ministry of War would definitely not be able to escape!

That means that the Huguang Township Party will completely lose the Ministry of War. If Li Dongyang wants to intervene in military affairs in the future, he will have to look at the mood of the new Grand Sima Xu Jin!

"Don't worry, Daxuan. The Ministry of War is just the beginning, and it's far from over!"

Hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar voice, Queen Xia suddenly raised her head, with a look of joy on her face.

Tang Hao was startled when he saw this, but then he nodded with a smile and got directly into the carriage of the chief minister of the cabinet.

"..."

"It is said that there was a fierce conflict between the Wenyuange Grand Scholar and Lord Yuanfu today, and then he left angrily!"

In order to monitor the goings-on in the palace, the outer court frantically placed spies inside the inner court, infiltrating the forbidden area of ​​the palace like a sieve.

"And you have to be careful yourself, don't take it lightly!"

"Thinking about your temperament, I'm afraid you might be betrayed without even knowing it, and you might be sad and sad, so I came here to have a look."

Soon Chen Kuan came over after hearing the news and solemnly thanked Tang Hao as soon as they met.

Tang Hao had just walked up to his horse when he saw a slightly shabby carriage standing next to him.

In the past, the emperor was very kind to her, but he rarely said such tender words, which made people feel sweet in their hearts.

"However, some of what Li Dongyang said was not wrong. Firing too many officials at once would cause instability and put everyone in the government and the opposition at risk."

Queen Xia bravely asked, her eyes full of anticipation and hope.

Seeing that the entrance to the palace was not far away, Chen Kuan stopped talking nonsense.

Tang Hao held his chin and fell into deep thought. Then he picked up a sunspot and dropped it. He continued to make moves one after another, ignoring the reaction of the old chief assistant.

When Zhu Houzhao heard these words, the anger and irritability in his heart gradually dissipated.

"The reason is very simple. The Metropolitan Procuratorate is purging the Ministry of War. This is something that benefits the country and the people. The only people who suffer are the Huguang Township Party, so I didn't take action!"

It seems that it was the Marquis of Zhongshan who gave the advice and admonished His Majesty, and then His Majesty paid more attention to his heirs!

While Queen Xia happily changed Zhu Houzhao's clothes, she kept the name Tang Hao deeply in her heart.

"At this moment, Han Guandao is personally supervising the salt administration and eliminating the shortcomings of the salt administration. How about giving him a chance?"

At the same time, after Tang Hao finished drinking a jar of wine, he also felt bored. Under the leadership of the young eunuch, he walked alone on the way out of the palace.

"But looking at this attitude, let's forget it. I'll keep the story short."

"Okay, okay!" Zhu Houzhao said with a smile, "all the little things have passed."

"Clarifying the administration of officials is not something that happens overnight, but is related to the major policies of the court and the country!"

"Rather than replace him with a mediocre person who doesn't know anything, it's better to give Han Wen another chance. After all, he is an official and the most suitable candidate at the moment. What do you think, Marquis Tang?"

"What do you think, Master Yuanfu?"

"Han Guandao is a cadre. He was a public official in the Department of Science and Technology. He dared to impeach Ma Wensheng when he was first in charge. He is a radical and outspoken person."

"Go to Kunning Palace and have a baby. You can drink it by yourself!"

"To make a country rich, we must do a good job in taxation, and the responsibility lies with the Ministry of Household Affairs. The main taxes collected by the Ministry of Household Affairs are agricultural taxes, salt taxes, and mineral taxes. Judging from the salt tax alone, the salt policy is so corrupt that the current Ministry of Household Affairs Shangshu Hanwen is responsible for oversight, so he is not a suitable candidate to continue to be the chief minister of household affairs. "

"Your Majesty, this concubine is of no use and has only caused you trouble..."

The carriage moved forward slowly and seemed to be going in a circle.

Han Wen is an official, there is no doubt about it.

"As for the Queen, she also sent a smart person to serve her. If anything happens, she will cook a bowl of porridge or something for Your Majesty."

When Tang Hao heard this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly. He was reciprocating the favor. Smart people do things to make people feel comfortable.

"So, Marquis Zhongshan, can you slow down a bit?"

At this moment, Queen Xia still doesn't understand that she has done something wrong and has angered His Majesty the Emperor for nothing!

She just agreed to the Empress Dowager's request and ordered the Zhang brothers to be summoned to the palace, hoping that the Zhang brothers could admit their mistakes to His Majesty the Emperor and the whole family could live in harmony.

"We are here now to tell Mr. Tang an interesting story."

Tang Hao nodded, indicating that he knew what he was doing.

The two looked at each other and smiled, then reached an agreement.

The carriage happened to return to its original position at this moment, and Tang Hao stood up and got out of the carriage.

"How could Marquis Tang still have such knowledge?"

When she thought of this, Queen Xia was so anxious that she wiped her tears.

Tang Hao waved his fist in demonstration, which scared Chen Kuan to the point where he shook his head repeatedly and gave up this unrealistic and terrible idea.

"Your Majesty, will you... stay in Kunning Palace tonight?"

"Tang Hao, a savage, even though his words may sound a bit unpleasant, he is actually for me. I can't help but believe him!"

Before he could think about it, the curtain of the carriage opened, Liu Jian poked his head out and said with a smile: "Marquis of Zhongshan, would you like to get in the carriage for a chat?"

At least, until His Majesty the Emperor takes back all power and officially takes charge, the eunuchs of the inner court and the Marquis of Zhongshan must be political allies and exchange information. This is the basic principle.

"Ahem, just kidding."

Although Li Dongyang's words today were full of selfishness, he was not entirely wrong.

This carriage is not big, it can only accommodate two or three people.

Chen Kuan sighed inexplicably, then turned around and walked towards the palace.

"Go backgammon!"

"..."
