Zhu Youxiao really had no way of agreeing to Xu Guangqi's request regarding the Wang Gongchang matter.
It’s not that he didn’t want to agree to Xu Guangqi’s request. In fact, Zhu Youxiao also wanted to do this very much, even more urgently than Xu Guangqi.
But many things cannot be done just because you want to. Zhu Youxiao is very clear about this, so he can only deal with it temporarily and then handle the matter himself.
If it fails, it won't be too embarrassing because Xu Guangqi had not been promised it from the beginning; if it is done, then everyone will be happy and there will be nothing to say.
After hearing what Zhu Youxiao said, Xu Guangqi hurriedly said respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty."
After a brief moment of contemplation, Xu Guangqi said with a resolute expression, "Your Majesty, how about allowing me to submit a memorial?"
Looking up at Xu Guangqi, Zhu Youxiao smiled slightly.
Zhu Youxiao certainly knew what Xu Guangqi meant by this, but how could Xu Guangqi be blamed for this matter?
It was impossible for him to do so. Therefore, it was impossible for Xu Guangqi to propose the allocation of Wanggongchang, and he had to find a way himself.
"There are a lot of things to do in the cabinet, so please go back first." Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said.
After hearing this, although Xu Guangqi was still very unwilling in his heart, a helpless look appeared on his face.
He knew that since his Majesty said so, it meant that he had made up his mind not to let Old Xu participate.
Xu Guangqi then stood up, bowed, and said, "Well, I'll take my leave."
Although he felt a little guilty, Xu Guangqi also knew that this matter was inevitable and there was no way to stop it.
Everyone in the Academy of Hundred Craftsmen was waiting for this matter. This matter had already restricted the development of the Academy of Hundred Craftsmen, so Xu Guangqi came to the Palace of Heavenly Purity to raise it.
His Majesty agreed so readily that Xu Guangqi felt a little embarrassed.
For Xu Guangqi, he knew how difficult this matter was, and he also knew that this matter might cause some harm to His Majesty, but there was nothing he could do.
However, Xu Guangqi made up his mind that after returning, he would urge the craftsmen of the Academy of Hundred Craftsmen to speed up the progress and produce results to bring honor to His Majesty.
Even if there is temporary criticism now, it doesn't matter. When there are real results, it will definitely make Your Majesty proud.
Looking at Xu Guangqi's leaving back, Zhu Youxiao sighed helplessly.
How come it makes me seem like I'm being lazy, while these ministers are being so diligent?
However, Zhu Youxiao could also understand that Xu Guangqi, Shen Tingyun and others all wanted to get to the top.
On the one hand, they did it for the Ming Dynasty out of patriotism; on the other hand, it was for themselves, they wanted to become officials.
Being an official means gaining power on one hand, and realizing one's self-worth on the other.
They have been reading books of sages since childhood and have always wanted to make a career, so they have been holding their breath in their hearts, which has been suppressed quite severely over the years. Now it suddenly bursts out, and the power is really extraordinary.
Leaning on the couch, Zhu Youxiao was wondering what to do.
I have to handle the Wanggongchang matter myself, but how should I do it?
Just go and tell it yourself?
It’s not appropriate. I’m the emperor and I can’t do that.
It happened that Chen Hong came back from outside.
Looking at Chen Hong, whose forehead was slightly sweaty, Zhu Youxiao's heart moved. He waved to him and said expressionlessly: "Go and find Wei Zhongxian for me."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Hong's legs were a little weak, and he was so tired that he couldn't even drink a sip of water. However, he didn't dare to delay. He quickly agreed and hurried to find Wei Zhongxian.
Wei Zhongxian had a hard time during this period because Zhu Youxiao employed Wang An, and Wei Zhongxian's status was downgraded for no reason.
However, Zhu Youxiao was going to let Wei Zhongxian do something, which was also the worst test. If Wei Zhongxian continued to work seriously, then he could still be used, otherwise he could not be used.
In the eyes of an emperor, thunder, rain and dew are all blessings from heaven. Everything you have is given by me. You can take what I give you; what I don’t give you, you can’t even think about.
If Wei Zhongxian showed dissatisfaction because of this, he could be removed.
"Eunuch Wei, the emperor is calling you." When Chen Hong ran to the East Factory, Wei Zhongxian was scolding Sun Yunhe in the dark prison.
When he saw Chen Hong coming, Wei Zhongxian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that the emperor was summoning him!
The East Factory has nothing to do now. The previous cases have been almost dealt with, and Wei Zhongxian doesn't have to worry about the remaining details, so he is relatively idle, and at the same time he is looking forward to having something to do.
Now hearing the emperor summoning him, Wei Zhongxian was so overjoyed that he did not dare to be negligent in the slightest. He ran into the palace quickly and did not let his emperor wait too long.
"Your servant greets the emperor." As soon as Wei Zhongxian entered the hall, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed before he even saw his own emperor.
Looking at Wei Zhongxian kneeling in the distance, Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said, "Come closer."
Wei Zhongxian hurriedly walked forward a distance, then knelt down on the ground with a thud.
Zhu Youxiao glanced at Wei Zhongxian and didn't let him get up. Instead, he said expressionlessly, "I have something to entrust to you. There seems to be some problems at Wanggongchang. Ask Cui Chengxiu to check it out. If there is a problem, please submit a report. Tell Cui Chengxiu to be very careful. If anything goes wrong, I will hold you responsible."
Wei Zhongxian was startled and quickly said respectfully, "Then let me pass on the message?"
