Chapter 5: Not Simple Tigers
"A good move has retreated to advance. Just looking at me can lead to so much information. I am worthy of being the Eight Tigers, let alone those ministers who dominate the officialdom. How can I stabilize the imperial power?"
"No, I want to be the emperor of the ages. I still have that magical video. I have some guidance from a few gentlemen, and I will definitely be able to turn the tide."
Luo Xiang didn't know Ma Yongcheng's plan at this time, "Okay, you old boy, the temporary trick is to roast me on the fire. The old boy looked at the miscellaneous family to give you some colors." Luo Xiang subconsciously wiped his forehead, "Fortunately, I didn't have time to attack just now, otherwise the little emperor would have all his grudges."
"What is the crime of Eunuch Ma? If the ministers who assisted the former emperor are guilty, they are all guilty. Besides, I know that Eunuch Ma is busy with work, so it is common sense that I did not come to pay my respects. I should ask Eunuch Ma to tell you personally. When I see Eunuch Ma today, it is indeed not to be underestimated."
Zhu Houcan said nothing, and Ma Yongcheng could not hear anything. He subconsciously looked up again and saw Zhu Houcan's bright eyes. At that moment, Ma Yongcheng knew that he was temporarily safe.
After kowtowed three times, Ma Yongcheng dared to get up. However, Luo Xiang, who was beside him, looked ugly and wanted to show off but didn't know how to start.
Huang Jin said beside Zhu Houcong: "Your Majesty, Admiral Zhang Yongzhang is here."
"Okay, what are you waiting for, you dog slave? Why don't you invite Eunuch Zhang in?"
Soon, Zhang Yong, wearing the admiral's uniform, walked in, "It is worthy of being Zhang Yong, who is praised by Mr. Antiques. He has a tiger-eyed and bear-like power. You can tell at a glance that he has had a military man, which is completely different from Luo Xiang's feminine look."
According to Zhu Houcong's original intention, no one of these eunuchs was left. After all, the old emperor died outside the palace because of these villains. However, Mr. Antique analyzed that these people were still available, and they must first settle the country when fighting against foreign countries. If you want to fight with those civil officials, someone must restrain them. These people can choose one or two at their discretion. Moreover, these eunuchs have mixed relationships with the ministers outside the palace, so you can definitely take a long line to catch a big fish.
"My memory, Zhang Yong, has seen Your Majesty."
While Zhu Houcong was looking at Zhang Yong, Zhang Yong was also looking at Zhu Houcong. The day before yesterday, Zhu Houcong and all officials argued with reason and calmly entered the Shenwu Sect. Zhang Yong was the admiral of the Nine Gate. Zhang Yong was in front of him. On Zhu Houcong, Zhang Yong saw a terrible emperor, a scheming emperor. No matter who was the attention, the fact that the fifteen-year-old boy in front of him was not afraid of danger, it all showed the Ying Mingrui section of the person in front of him.
On the one hand, Zhang Yong was happy that the new emperor had such a mighty posture, and on the other hand, he was also worried about his future. After all, no one wanted to die in shame.
Zhu Houguan stood up from behind the table, walked to Zhang Yong, and helped Zhang Yong up. "Eunuch Zhang Zhi eliminated the rebel traitor Liu Jin, brought Jiumen to guard the capital, and captured Jiang Bin and other traitors. He was so tired of my royal family, so please get up quickly."
"Your Majesty". Zhang Yong was in tears for a moment. Whether this new emperor was trying to consolidate the imperial power or was really so. At least he was grateful for this kind of courtesy. Finally, some people understood what he had done over the years.
Luo Xiang, who was standing beside him, said, "Your Majesty, Eunuch Zhang is also an old man in the palace. It is a matter of duty to do the job for the emperor. Don't be sad. We servants have today's prestige, not all rely on the emperor of the Great Travel."
Luo Xiang also treated Zhu Houchuang as Wuzong. As soon as these words came out, Ma Yongcheng secretly scolded Luo Xiang for being stupid.
Sure enough, Zhu Houcan looked at Luo Xiang, "Eunuch Luo and Admiral Zhang, Lord Ma has foreign affairs to discuss, so you should step down first"!
"This"? Although he was unwilling to give up, Luo Xiang retreated quickly, and kept praising himself whether he would win extra points in front of Zhu Houguan.
"Huang Jin guards outside and does not allow anyone to get close."
The two of them trembled in their hearts and knew that the little emperor was about to showdown.
Zhu Houchuang stood up and looked at the two of them, who were not young and had already seen a trace of white hair. Zhu Houchuang thought that these two were all human spirits, so it would be better to go straight to the point than to be with them.
"Eunuch Zhang, I admire your actions. I still need Eunuch Zhang's assistance in the future. I hope Eunuch Zhang will not refuse."
"Eunuch Ma, you have no major mistakes, but you have no merit. I didn't want to keep you." As he said this, Zhu Houcan looked at Ma Yongcheng, and Ma Yongcheng really paused.
"But I can give you a chance to see you really regret it. Tomorrow you should take over the things in the palace, as for the fool Luo Xiang sent the palace to the palace early."
Ma Yongcheng gritted his teeth and said, "Slaves obeyed the order."
Zhu Houcong walked up to the two of them. She was only fifteen years old and her figure was not as tall as those who bent down.
"I have heard of you Eight Tigers' reputation. Apart from Gu Dayong, who is still guarding the border, the hill has not yet entered the palace. I have long wanted to know when you slaves are going to come to see me. I am so anxious that I summon you in advance. I think the news of your visit to the palace and meeting me has reached others' ears. I want them to know that I am not a rootless duckweed, and I also have people who can be used. Can you two be my confidants?"
The two of them hurriedly knelt down, "Dare you not to live."
"Okay, I hope you won't let me down."
Zhu Houcong took out two secret decrees that had been prepared long ago, "These two secret decrees do not have the imperial seal now, so they are invalid. You can follow them and do it. Of course, I will not object to the garbage thrown when you go out. Whether you can do it depends on your thoughts."
The two of them carefully put the secret order in their arms, and replied firmly with their eyes: "I will definitely be honest with the emperor's expectations."
After the two left, Huang Jin pressed his shoulders for Zhu Houguan, "Master, I want to help you with something and share one or two for you."
Zhu Houcong patted the palm of Huang Jin in fear, "You are my companion. As long as you are loyal, how could I treat you badly? Now that our foundation is not stable, we still need help from others. When we come back, I will tell Zhang Yong that you should go to Dongchang to study first and remember that if I hear you have a fake power, I will not forgive you."
Huang Jin immediately smiled, "Don't worry, me, how can we be embarrassed and make people laugh at us for nothing."
Zhu Houcan was the only one left in the Qianqing Palace. Zhu Houcan was holding his chin with his hands and looking forward with his eyes, but he kept thinking about the people who could be used in the palace and outside the palace. Those eunuchs and slaves were easy to deal with, but the interests of the ministers outside the palace were complicated. It would take some time for me to truly hold power. Is it really a matter of what my husband said? I thought it would take three years to give my father a posthumous title to him and Zhu Houcan began to get angry in his eyes.
"Yang Tinghe!
Alas, getting angry is useless. I have promised Mr. Antique to be a wise king, and I will definitely be able to do it.”
Zhu Houcon's anger gradually dissipated and he said to himself: "It seems that the palace should be laid out as soon as possible. Luo Xiang hopes that you will not let me down."
