    The decision to let Shouning Marquis go and imprison Li Mengyang was made by Emperor Hongzhi in a fit of enthusiasm. Probably at that time, Queen Zhang's crying magic was at its peak, and Emperor Hongzhi finally couldn't resist the Queen's female power.  So she made this decree. Later, Queen Zhang achieved her goal and left with satisfaction. Emperor Hongzhi immediately felt regretful.

    However, the decree has already left the palace and cannot be retrieved. The emperor's golden words cannot be changed at will. Even if the civil and military officials of the court unanimously oppose it, he can only grit his teeth and refuse to let go. Otherwise, if the emperor changes the imperial decree under the pressure of the ministers, if he gives in this step,  Not only will the emperor's prestige be greatly damaged, the arrogance of the civil service group will also become more and more arrogant in the future.

    Things fell into a stalemate.

    Even Emperor Hongzhi himself had to admit that he made a stupid move.

    The memorandum of impeachment and remonstrance sent by the cabinet was packed into the palace in a basket. Xiao Jing, the chief minister of etiquette, was a discerning man. Seeing that Emperor Hongzhi's face was livid and his energy and blood were not smooth, Xiao Jing naturally would not give it.  His Majesty added another obstacle. After careful screening, he selected a few representative memorials with gentler wordings and gently placed them on the Long table for His Majesty to read in person. The other violent memorials that criticized His Majesty as a coward and a tyrant, Xiao Jing  Without a second thought, he put them in the Bureau of Ceremony and sealed them up so that they would never see the light of day.

    The charcoal fire in the imperial study room was burning brightly, and the room was as warm as spring, but Emperor Hongzhi still felt waves of coldness. He didn't know whether it was because his body was getting weaker or his heart was gradually getting cold.

    Looking at the fifteen-year-old prince who is still lying on the carpet playing like a child, I think about all the hesitant household chores in the royal family, and then think about the various crises hidden under the surface of the Ming Dynasty and ZTE

    Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s face showed deep fatigue.

    They say he is a rare wise king since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, butam I really a wise king?

    The memorials against him on the desk seemed to have mocking eyes, telling him that the so-called Hongzhi ZTE was actually just an illusion that he and his ministers had spent seventeen years concocting, and that he, Zhu Youtang, was actually just a passerby.  A fatuous monarch who came to the door and proclaimed himself a title.

    The red coals in the brazier crackled and exploded. Emperor Hongzhi came back to his senses and sighed deeply.

    Zhu Houzhao approached Emperor Hongzhi, looked at his depressed and heavy face, and couldn't help but asked with concern: "Is your father not feeling well? I will give you the title of imperial physician"

    Emperor Hongzhi shook his head and took Zhu Houzhao's hand. Seeing that his hands were dirty from playing, Emperor Hongzhi took out a snow-white handkerchief and wiped it carefully for him.

    "Son, when you become emperor in the future, you must be careful in your words and deeds. It doesn't matter if the people make a mistake. It doesn't matter whether they correct it or not, whether they admit it or not. They can still continue to live their lives. However, if the emperor makes a mistake, it doesn't matter.  If something happens, the consequences will be much more serious, ranging from the destruction of the country to the change of dynasty to the loss of power among the people at the worst"

    Zhu Houzhao blinked: "Father, are you talking about sending Li Mengyang to jail today?"

    Emperor Hongzhi was stunned and said: "You actually know it too?"

    Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "This matter has spread throughout the capital at noon. It is difficult for me to know about it Father, I know that you are very fair in everything you do, but this is the only thing you think you have done wrong.  Most likely it¡¯s the Queen Mother¡­ Hee hee, haha.¡±

    Zhu Houzhao smiled so hard that Emperor Hongzhi felt embarrassed, so he smiled bitterly and tapped his head with his finger.

    "Now the courtiers are calling me a foolish king, asking me to release Li Mengyang, and depriving me of the title of Marquis Shouning. Some people even want me to depose the queen." Emperor Hongzhi rubbed his brows and sighed: "Your mother is the queen.  We are also pressing each other tightly, both sides are embarrassing me, I really feel so tired"

    Zhu Houzhao blinked: "Father, do you think this matter is difficult to handle?"

    "Of course. I have lost my ground, and just now I heard the report from the Jinyi Guards that many Imperial College students have gathered in front of Shouninghou Mansion to cause trouble. Your two uncles are too bastards. I should have demoted them from the capital.  It also saves me the headache and worry that I often have now.¡±

    Zhu Houzhao rolled his eyes smartly and said with a smile: "My father doesn't want a loyal minister like Li Mengyang to be killed, but he also wants to satisfy the ministers without damaging the dignity of the Tian family. It is actually not difficult to solve this matter"

    Emperor Hongzhi was greatly surprised. He stared at Zhu Houzhao and said, "My son can actually do something?"

    "Hehe, father, don't you often say that as long as the emperor has the ability to appoint talents and use talents, it will be fine. If it seems difficult to do something, as long as you can find one or two talented ministers, they will definitely handle it for the emperor.  Of course I can't think of a solution, but I know that someone must have a solution. This guy has a lot of bad things going on"

    ***************************************************  *************

      Qin Kan was stunned for a long time when he received the summons from the palace. After thinking about it, he realized that he had been doing his duty recently and had not caused any trouble or trouble. He really couldn't figure out why the emperor summoned him again.

    Full of doubts and trepidation, but not daring to disobey the emperor's imperial edict, Qin Kandang got on the carriage sent by the palace and entered the city.

    After entering the Chaoyang Gate, turn right. A straight street leads directly to the Chengtian Gate of the Imperial Palace. Halfway through the carriage, he heard an earth-shattering roar outside the carriage. Qin Kan opened the curtain and found that it was in front of the Shouning Hou Mansion. It was spacious.  In the open space in front of the mansion, hundreds of scholars wearing long robes were pointing at the door of the mansion and shouting curses, such as "traitors of the country" and "treacherous relatives". It was very lively.

    The carriage that Qin Kan was riding in had been blocked by the crowd and could not move. Dozens of officers from Shuntian Mansion and more than a hundred Jinyi captains were lazily scattered everywhere, but the door of Shouning Hou Mansion was tightly closed, and a bunch of people were scattered in front of the door.  Ground egg juice and rotten vegetable leaves.

    Qin Kan sat on the shaft of the carriage, grabbed an excited scholar, and asked hurriedly: "What happened? What bad things did Hou Ning do again?"

    The scholars were also enthusiastic and angrily told the story about Shouning Hou and Li Mengyang. Qin Kan was a little surprised. He did not expect that this matter would cause such a big fuss. Scholars these days are really not vegetarians.

    "This traitor really deserves to be killed!" Qin Kan cursed a few times in response, and then slowly said: "But you are throwing eggs and rotten vegetable leaves to vent your anger, which is a bit negative"

    The scholar was stunned: "Then what should we throw away?"

    "Throw the torch, throw it in from outside the wall, and burn the traitor's house to ashes. This will make people happy"

    The scholar's eyes widened: "Throw a torch?"

    Qin Kan patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him: "Don't worry, I have done this before. It only burned a few houses. It didn't kill anyone. This traitor has made so much money selling salt, so he probably won't feel bad about it."  Several houses"

    The scholar's face was uncertain, he hesitated for a long time, and stamped his foot fiercely: "Yes! This traitor took advantage of his status as a relative of the country and ran rampant. In the fish and meat village, he put Mr. Li in jail, ruined our Ming Salt Law, and earned so much money. Really.  It deserves to be killed and it deserves to be burned!¡±

    Qin Kan patted him on the shoulder approvingly: "'Isn't it better for an envoy to carry out the king's orders than a thief?' Let's encourage you! Burn my share for me and say goodbye."

    "Classmates, we can't take advantage of Shouning Hou, this traitor, let's burn him with fire!"

    Amidst the loud shouting and cursing, Qin Kan rode the carriage towards the palace (To be continued.
