Xiao Ciye had a round belly and sat on a chair with a little face looking at Zhu Xu, a little innocent.

Zhu Xu smiled and asked Cao Huachun to pay the bill, and walked back with the little guy on his back.

The capital is very lively, and I don’t know how many people follow Ping Wang and others. Ping Wang, Zhao Han and others will also take advantage of the opportunity to boast about Zhu Xu’s “Holy Light Candle”, and then tell the people openly or secretly how powerful the Ming Dynasty is, which can overcome all difficulties and call on the people to support the court’s “new policy”.

When Zhu Xu returned to the palace, he had several more newspapers, including official and civilian. Without exception, he praised the court's "no battle against the enemy soldiers", and praised Zhu Xu's foresight and great martial arts.

When Zhu Xu returned to the Ganqing Palace, Xiao Ciye had been asleep for a long time. Zhu Xu put him on the soft collapse of the warm room, covered him with a quilt, and continued to handle his government affairs.

At the end of the year, he had a lot of memorials, from various departments at the prefect level to prolong their lives, and then to the court. Every day, he had nearly a hundred books, endless, not to mention others.

What Zhu Xu turned over was a joint memorial from the cabinet that had just sent it to him, explaining what he saw and heard in the local area, especially the investigation of the "New Deal".

These memorials of the Censors are empty and lacking introductory. They are all clichés, and very few are novel.

Even so, Zhu Xu still looked at it very seriously. There are many details hidden in these same things. Through these details, you can see some of the true appearance of the place.

Liu Shimin quietly changed to Cao Huachun's class and stood not far from Zhu Xu's table.

Time passed without realizing it, until it was dark, and Liu Shimin stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, it's dark, are you having a meal?"

Zhu Xu looked up and saw that his eyes were getting dark. He had a great headache. It took him a long time to recover. He let out a deep breath and said, "Please bring some porridge. By the way, is Ye'er awake?"

Liu Shimin said, "Your Highness woke up an hour ago and had already walked back to Fengzao Palace by himself. I sent someone to take care of him, and there was nothing to do."

Zhu Xu smiled. This little guy has now found his way back.

"Well, is there anything else?" Zhu Xu closed the memorial and leaned against the chair, regaining his energy.

Liu Shimin said, "Old Bi Ge of the Cabinet, King Ping, and Shangshu Zhao from the Ministry of Personnel came to ask for a meeting, and I blocked them as ordered."

Zhu Xu nodded, said 'um', pinched his eyebrows, and said, "Tomorrow, go to the parliament first, and then go to the Ministry of Justice. I will talk to Zhang Wenda."

"Yes, I will make arrangements now." Liu Shimin said.

Zhu Xu took a breath, picked up the tea beside him, and before he could take a sip, a palace maid from Kunning Palace hurried in, stood in front of the threshold, and said in a hurry with joy: "Emperor, the Empress, please go to Kunning Palace, there is a happy event."

Zhu Xu was stunned and said, "What happy event?"

The palace maid pursed her lips and said happily, "The Empress said, please come over."

Zhu Xu looked at the palace maids and saw what happy events could be in the harem?

At this time, Liu Shimin suddenly woke up, turned to Zhu Xu, and said, "Your Majesty, please move to Kunning Palace."

Zhu Xu looked at Liu Shimin's expression and felt a sudden change in his heart. He threw away the cup in his hand and strode out of the Donghun Pavilion.

Zhu Xu was so stormy that Liu Shimin and the palace maids behind him were also excited. Before they knew it, a large group of people were following behind him, swarming towards Kunning Palace.

By the time Zhu Xu arrived, the Kunning Palace was already crowded with people, including Empress Dowager Zhang, Zhang Jun, Li Jieyu, Hai Lanzhu, Xiao Yongning, Xiao Shuxian, Xiao Ciye, etc., surrounding Zhang Jun, laughing and chatting about something.

When they saw Zhu Xu coming in, they all stood up to salute.

Zhu Xu waved his hand and walked directly towards Zhang Yun, and said excitedly: "Is there?"

Zhang Yun stood in front of Zhu Xu, with a slightly red face, pursed his lips, and his eyes were full of joy.

Empress Dowager Zhang said first: "I have just visited the imperial doctor. Not only the queen is happy, but also Hai Lanzhu."

Zhu Xu glanced at Hai Lanzhu, and indeed, she smiled when she saw her, pulled Xiao Cixuan and looked at Zhu Xu shyly.

Zhu Xu laughed loudly, took Zhu Xu, Zhang Yun and Hai Lanzhu's hands and said, "Okay, okay, it's really a happy event. Come and hold a banquet. I want to celebrate today..."

Zhang Yun is pregnant, unlike others, he is the Queen of the Central Palace.

A group of women looked at each other, smiling as if that was true.

Zhu Xu was really happy. Although he didn't say it, he was more anxious than Zhang Yun. He didn't want it. The "New Policy" was in a battle for the throne at the beginning.

Empress Dowager Zhang was very happy and pulled Zhang Yun to whisper at the dining table, not knowing what to say.

Hai Lanzhu sat there, touching her belly from time to time, and glanced at Zhu Xu.

Xiao Yongning, Shuxian, Ci Ye, Ci Yi and Ci Xuan were shuttled and played at the dining table. No one cared about them at this time. He was so happy that he kept talking.

The news soon spread outside the palace. The cabinet and the six ministries were happier than Zhu Xu and others. Some ministers even rarely asked the cabinet King Jing and others to go out for dinner "blatantly" to celebrate.

The pregnancy of the central palace is very important to Zhu Xu, the court and even the Ming Dynasty, or, in other words, the most important.

The dispute over the throne in the Ming Dynasty has always been inspiring. From Zhu Di's launch of the "Jingnan Campaign" to the "National Foundation Controversy" during the Wanli period, every time it was thrilling and paid a huge price.

The Ming Dynasty could no longer withstand the torture, and the government and the public also hated this kind of struggle. In addition, the current tide of reform is vigorous, and if the source of chaos occurs, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Therefore, there was joy in the central palace, and all the civil and military officials in the court were overjoyed. Now they were looking forward to it, just waiting for Zhang Yun to give birth to a legitimate son, and then quickly became the crown prince to stabilize the hearts of the people in the world!

Zhu Xu has always been extremely strict with herself and rarely gets drunk. Today, she didn't control herself on the table and let go of drinking. After a while, her face turned red and she began to 'speak nonsense'. From time to time, she would bring Xiao Yongning over to teach her a lesson, not allowing her to take his sons to ruin.

Empress Dowager Zhang, Zhang Yun and others all smiled without stopping them. Xiao Yongning was so angry that he opened his teeth and claws. He pulled Xiao Shuxian and Xiao Ciye and others away halfway.

After drinking for a while, they slowly dispersed and returned to the palace.

Kunning Palace, Zhu Xu took a shower, lay on the bed, woke up a lot, hugged Zhang Yun, and laughed: "I'm so happy to take care of myself, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at us. After a while, I will ask the Grand Prince to take care of him, and the Emperor's sister-in-law will also help you. You must be relieved and take care of your baby..."

Zhang Yun leaned against Zhu Xu, touched his lower abdomen, and nodded softly.

She was under a lot of pressure and was finally pregnant now. She breathed a sigh of relief and had a little more anticipation.

The two hugged each other, talked slowly, and fell asleep unknowingly.

Early the next morning, the second floor of the Cabinet Hall.

There are 120 tables here, and only more than 60 people are sitting in front of them. Now, many people gather here, and the sounds are starting to quarrel from small to large.

"The land acre system formulated by the cabinet is absolutely unacceptable. Taxation is imposed on the land acres, and the accumulation of more than ten acres is carried out. One-third of the land acres must be paid for more than 30 acres, and nearly half of the tax is paid for fifty acres. How can this be done?"

"There are heavy taxes on buying and selling land, and even renting a species. How can the people survive?"

"The disaster is so severe now. The court should allow the people to recuperate and restore people's livelihood. Why do we still increase taxes repeatedly? Isn't this asking officials to force the people to rebel?"

"I voted against it. If the cabinet does this, there will definitely be a big mess. We cannot let them do this. The same thing is, we must consider the people and not allow these harsh policies to exist..."

"The harsh government is more powerful than the tiger, and I voted against it. We must work together and we must not let the cabinet take advantage of the loopholes. If they come again, we will vote against it..."

More than 60 members of parliament gathered together, and they were very fierce in their arguments, almost one-sidedly opposed to the new cabinet policy.

Although there are a few people who want to say something, they can only keep silent in the face of such a situation.

The cabinet was also full of people early in the morning, and almost all the minds of the cabinet's auxiliary ministers, the ministers of the six ministries, the ministers of the Jiusi Zhengqing, the State Administration of Taxation, the Royal Money House, etc.

The National Parliament, which is a new one, is different from the previous governors, who can use both kindness and power and force them to submit to each other by various means.
