Zhu Houyi had been busy meeting the students of the royal school in the imperial court for the past two days. Since Zhu Houyi met Wang Yangming, all the disciples of the School of Mind had been under Zhu Houyi.
Wang Yangming's School of Mind had a great influence in the court. Zhu Houzhen estimated that one-third of the ministers in the court were on his side, and some officials inside and outside the palace had defected to him because of the School of Mind.
At this moment, Zhu Houjin roughly calculated that his power in the court had already caught up to half of Yang Tinghe's. Originally, Zhu Houzhen had no foundation in the imperial court. After Yang Ming's school was incorporated, Zhu Houzhen's strength immediately increased.
Although Zhu Houjin's strength was not on par with Yang Tinghe's, he could still try fighting Yang Tinghe.
"Alright, since that's the case, I'll have a palace battle to test how strong Yang Tinghe is!”
"Emperor, you must be careful!"
Lu Bing and Fang Qi were worried when they heard that Zhu Houjiu was planning to fight with Yang Tinghe.
"Emperor, although we have power in the court, Yang Tinghe still holds military power. We only have the Embroidered Uniform Guards in our hands now, so we have no way to fight with Yang Tinghe!”
"Hehe, don't worry!"
"If you want to fight, you don't have to bleed!" Zhu Houjin smiled confidently. This time, this one is only testing Yang Tinghe's strength in the imperial court. I won't really fight him!”
"Zhen already has a comprehensive plan. In less than a month, we will be able to take down Yang Tinghe.”
"Oh, alright!"
Lu Bing and Fang Qi didn't ask him anymore when they saw how confident he was.
It was hard to believe. At this time, Zhu Houzhen was only a 15-year-old teenager, but after asking Wang Yangming for advice, Zhu Houzhen's shrewdness and power were far above Yang Tinghe.
Yang Tinghe, an old official of the four dynasties, was now completely toyed with by Zhu Houjin. At this moment, Zhu Houjiu was dealing with Yang Tinghe like a cat toying with a mouse.
As long as Yang Tinghe revealed the slightest flaw, as long as Zhu Houlin figured out Yang Tinghe's strength, Zhu Houlin would not hesitate to pounce on him and immediately eliminate Yang Tinghe.
"Huang Jin, summon Zhang Cong and Yan Song over. Zhen has something to instruct them!”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
……
While Zhu Houjin was plotting to take action against Yang Tinghe, he was also hoping to find the name list of the people who visited Wang Yangming that day from Fang Xianfu. This way, he could find the name and address of the girl, Yang Qingxi.
But who knew that after Fang Xianfu gave the list to Zhu Houzhen, Zhu Houzhen did a check and did not find any girls among them.
"Uh…Fang Xianfu, I remember that a lady went to visit Mr. Yang Ming that day, right? Why haven't I found her name yet?”
"What? Emperor, you're talking about that girl! Sigh, although she came, she did not see her master in the end! Not long after the Emperor left, someone from her family came to bring her back. Sigh, it was really a pity that she did not see her master!”
"Uh…it's actually like this!"
When Zhu Houzhen heard Fang Xianfu's words, he felt extremely awkward. Initially, he had hoped to use this clue to find out the girl's name and address, but who knew that man's plan was not as good as God's? In the end, they still missed the opportunity.
After Fang Xianfu left, Lu Bing clutched his stomach and laughed.
"Haha, emperor, what are you going to do now?”
"Sigh…"
Zhu Houjin did not expect this to happen. He thought to himself that since he still did not know the girl's name, it seemed that the two of them were not fated for the time being.
"Sigh, forget it. Let's meet again in the future!”
"Haha!"
Lu Bing smiled for a while and said,"Alright, emperor, if you really like that girl, I will let the Jinyiwei help you find her. I think if the Jinyiwei is dispatched, they will be able to find her in a few days!”
"Sigh, forget it. There's no need for that for the time being.”Zhu Houjin shook his head and said," This is the critical moment of my battle with Yang Tinghe. I don't want to distract this girl. Let's wait until later!"”
"Good, Your Majesty, I admire you!"
When Lu Bing heard Zhu Houjiu's words, he gave him a thumbs up in his heart. He thought that it was really rare for Zhu Houjiu to be so calm in the face of beauty.
On the other side, in Yang Tinghe's home, Yang Qingxi was also holding Zhu Houjin's fan in a daze.
"Hey, Miss, if you really like him, I'll help you find him!”
Xiao He came in with a cup of tea. When she saw Yang Qingxi's dazed look, she couldn't help but sigh.
"Miss, I think you should hide your fan well. Don't let Master see it! I heard that the old master let you enter the capital this time to marry you off. If he finds out that you miss someone else, it will be terrible!”
"Xiao He, who told you that? Why didn't I know?"
"I heard it from Young Master's servant. It shouldn't be wrong! Sigh, Miss, thinking about it this way, your own marriage is beyond your control. It's really pitiful!”
"Yes!"
Yang Qingxi heard Xiao He's words and sighed. She pondered for a moment and opened Zhu Houzhen's fan to take a look.
If Yang Tinghe really wanted to marry Yang Qingxi off, then even if she were to meet Zhu Houjin in the future, it would not be fated.
Yang Qingxi only hoped that she could see Zhu Houjin again before the wedding. That way, she would be satisfied.
"I once called the vast sea water, and apart from Mount Wu, there are no clouds.”
Yang Qingxi looked at the fan and chanted in a low voice.
……
In the morning court session the next day, all the officials stood solemnly. A tense atmosphere pervaded Taihe Palace, causing the ministers to feel that something was not quite right.
Although the officials did not know what was going to happen today, they could sense that the atmosphere in the court was a little unusual.
"Ai, Lord Yang Yiqing, did the Emperor have anything special to do in the morning court today?”
"No, we didn't hear that the emperor had anything to announce!”
"Oh, Lord Mao Cheng, what do you think?”
"I don't know either. I asked Yang Ting and His Excellency just now, but he didn't say that there was an important matter today!”
"Sigh, let's not guess anymore. We'll know when we go to court!”
Although the officials did not know the details, they were all old officials of the Zhengde era. They had experienced the ups and downs of the Zhengde era and had a good sense of politics.
Today, as soon as they entered Taihe Palace, they felt that the atmosphere in Taihe Palace was inexplicably chilling. Therefore, many ministers secretly pondered, thinking that something big was going to happen today.
