Zhu Youxiao's life for the next two days was quite comfortable. With Concubine Yuan and Concubine Tian to look after him, he would spend every day looking over the memorials and finding faults in the ministers' work.
There were no major problems, but there were some minor ones. When Zhu Youxiao was in a good mood, he would ask someone to come and talk to him. When he was in a bad mood, he would issue an imperial decree to reprimand him. Anyway, he had the ability to do so now.
Empress Zhang was doing well, and she was very satisfied with Zhu Youxiao. Sometimes Empress Zhang would come over, but she would not stay overnight.
These days, Zhu Youxiao gets up early every morning and insists on exercising.
Life was pretty good. Of course, when you're idle, you start looking for something to do.
"Your Majesty, this is the memorial from Liaodong." Wei Chao came to Zhu Youxiao and said respectfully.
At this time, Zhu Youxiao was practicing Tai Chi, and each move was very stable.
Actually, he learned this when he was in college. Back then, he just thought it was boring, but now it's quite interesting to practice. After practicing it for so many years, it has become a habit.
Zhu Youxiao didn't stop what he was doing, and didn't even turn to look at Wei Chao. He just asked, "Who sent it?"
"Your Majesty, it's Lord Sun Chengzong." Wei Chao said hurriedly.
After completing the last move, Zhu Youxiao slowly withdrew his hand, reached out to take the test book, opened it and quickly browsed through it, and the expression on his face became a little solemn.
The fighting in Liaodong has already begun.
After he left, Sun Chengzong presided over a meeting in Liaodong, and people of all sizes from various tribes came.
But some people did not come, and that was the five Inner Khalkha tribes. Not only did their representatives not come, but the original five representatives also ran away.
Sure enough, the five Inner Khalkha tribes could form an alliance with the Ming Dynasty to deal with Huang Taiji, but they would not agree to it if they turned to deal with Ligdan Khan together.
This made Zhu Youxiao somewhat disappointed. Originally, the relationship with the five Inner Khalkha tribes was very good, at least better than the relationship with Khorchin. But now the relationship between Khorchin and the Ming Dynasty was even better.
Of course, this also has something to do with Korchin's way of doing things. They are old foxes and fence-sitters themselves.
As for the five Inner Khalkha tribes, that's fine too. Let's fight a battle. The Ming Dynasty also needs a battle to intimidate the grassland.
This incident did not surprise Zhu Youxiao and was not a big deal. Sun Chengzong had already begun to gather the Mongolian tribes to prepare to attack Inner Khalkha.
Zhu Youxiao handed the memorial to Wei Chao and said, "Send it to the General Staff Office. Let them take a look and come up with a plan. Make sure the logistics are in place and come up with a plan to defeat the enemy. Tell them to do a good job and don't let me down."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Wei Chao agreed quickly.
Although you may not lose this time, this is how things are in the world. Even if you are confident enough, you may not win truly.
If victory is not achieved, it is not considered a victory. Therefore, Zhu Youxiao asked them to make a plan for the battle report.
If the Ming Dynasty really loses the war, what should it do?
Should Liaodong continue to hold on? Should the battle continue?
All of these things are required, and this is their job.
After Wei Chao left, Zhu Youxiao took the warm towel from Chen Hong's hand and wiped his face. He then threw the towel to Chen Hong and said, "Go find Wei Zhongxian."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Hong agreed and quickly turned around and walked outside.
At this moment, Chen Hong's heart was already tense.
In recent years, Chen Hong has been increasingly valued by the emperor, and even Wei Chao has no way to compete with him.
Speaking of which, Chen Hong didn't take Wei Chao seriously. The only person who worried him was Wei Zhongxian.
Originally, the emperor had not used Wei Zhongxian in recent years and even put the East Factory aside. Chen Hong thought that the emperor had forgotten Wei Zhongxian.
But who could have thought that this time the emperor suddenly wanted to find Wei Zhongxian?
This made Chen Hong a little nervous.
Is Wei Zhongxian going to rise again?
It would be best to find Wei Zhongxian and bring him over to question him, give him a severe scolding, and then send him directly to Liaodong.
Forget it, Liaodong is too close, it would be better to send him to Yunnan and let him never come back. Only in this way can I feel at ease.
When Wei Zhongxian received the news that Zhu Youxiao had summoned him, he was so excited that he almost jumped up.
In recent years, Chen Hong has been in the limelight, and the Jinyiwei has also been in the limelight. But what about the East Factory?
His own East Factory was in decline, and now people looked down on him when he went out. Many people thought that the East Factory was no longer good, not as good as the Imperial Guard, and even people from the Ministry of Justice bullied the East Factory.
Wei Zhongxian had been holding back his breath for a long time, feeling very uncomfortable. But there was nothing he could do; if he couldn't turn over, he would always be a salted fish.
Now the opportunity had finally arrived. The Emperor had summoned him, clearly because he had something for him to do. Whatever it was, he knew he could get it done right this time. Then he would show everyone how he had turned things around.
"Let's go." Wei Zhongxian looked at Chen Hong and said with a smile.
Although Chen Hong had a smile on his face, he was cursing in his heart. However, he still bowed and said in a very relaxed tone: "I will lead the way for Eunuch Wei."
"I'm not blind yet!" Wei Zhongxian snorted and said in a very unfriendly tone.
The two rushed to the palace together.
Upon seeing Zhu Youxiao, Wei Zhongxian immediately prostrated himself on the ground and shouted, "This servant, Wei Zhongxian, pays respect to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor!"
Glancing at Wei Zhongxian, Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Get up."
