The opening inventory of the top ten young emperors

He had been looking forward to this moment since he heard that he would be specially arranged to review the performance this time. He even had someone arrange new dances and acrobatics. At this moment, he was letting the Eight Tigers eunuchs accompany him to watch and appreciate the performance.
"But that's not enough. My title must be unprecedented and unrivaled!"

He didn't care what earth-shattering words Tianjuan would say. To him, as long as it could make his boring days interesting, that was more important than anything else.
Hearing this, Zhu Houzhao smiled and shook the glass wine cup in his hand: "Overseas, the West? This is something that happened during the reign of Emperor Chengzu. How could I have forgotten this? Liu Jin, do you think the West should be very interesting?"

Originally, his name was mentioned at the beginning of the scroll, and Liu Jin was worried. But after waiting for a long time, this "old lady" started talking about things during the time of Emperor Chengzu, and Liu Jin felt a little relieved.
Hearing Zhu Houzhao's question, he quickly replied: "Who knows? I heard that the Westerners are all savages who eat raw meat and drink blood. If your majesty wants something fun, I will help you find it."

"That makes sense." Zhu Houzhao nodded, "Fortunately, I have you and all of you by my side."
After saying that, he looked around and said, "Where's Zhang Yong? Why doesn't he come over?"
"Your Majesty, wasn't Zhang Zongguan sent out by you to quell the rebellion? How could you have forgotten?"

Hearing that Zhu Houzhao still hadn't forgotten Zhang Yong at this time, Liu Jin interrupted with a smile: "I have arranged a fight in a while, Your Majesty, you should try to win some prizes."
"The prize?" Zhu Houzhao laughed loudly. "I don't want the prize. I want to be the banker. Come on, come on, place your bets."
When the other eunuchs heard this, they immediately laughed and rushed forward to start placing bets. The courtyard, which had originally had a clear distinction between masters and servants, suddenly became a mess. Among them, Zhu Houzhao laughed the loudest.

Zhu Houzhao laughed loudly. The tragic scene in the heavenly scroll had ended and Lei Xiaomeng's voice sounded again.
[However, this actually set a bad precedent. Although the status of eunuchs was improved after Emperor Yongle, they were not given much importance. However, during the generation of Zhu Zhanji, the grandson of Emperor Yongle, eunuchs were given important tasks again.]
[The East Factory gradually changed from a check and balance to a secret service agency that was superior to the Jinyiwei.]

[However, after several generations of emperors, especially after the Battle of Tumu, the emperors found that the Jinyiwei and Dongchang seemed not so trustworthy. ]
[Especially during the reign of Zhu Jianshen, the grandfather of Zhu Houzhao, who is the protagonist of our review this time. There was actually a folk charlatan who colluded with the eunuchs to assassinate the emperor, and he almost succeeded.]
[But in the end, only five people were arrested and killed.]

[This is a major case of regicide, but they closed the case after arresting only five people. Only a fool would believe this. Not to mention the emperor.]
【Thus, the West Factory was born. The first director of the West Factory was the eunuch Wang Zhi.】

[Speaking of Wang Zhi, he even gave himself a nickname, saying that he was the Huo Qubing of the Ming Dynasty.]

Zhu Yuanzhang: What, Huo Qubing of the Ming Dynasty? A eunuch?
Emperor Wu of Han: Huo Qubing? My Marquis of Guanjun? My Grand Marshal and General of the Cavalry? How dare a eunuch give himself this nickname?

Zhao Kuangyin: Haha, you really dare to say that!

Li Shimin: How dare a eunuch insult the Marquis of Guanjun like this? The world is going downhill and people's hearts are no longer as they used to be!

"The Great Ming Huo Qubing." Upon hearing these words, Zhu Houzhao chuckled and looked at Tian Juan and said, "If this little thief is the Great Ming Huo Qubing, then what am I?"
"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven. Who can compare with Your Majesty? Huo Qubing, Wang Zhi, they are not even as good as Your Majesty's little finger."
Gu Dayong on the side smiled and flattered.

"No, just say what I tell you to say. Don't try to fool me with the title of emperor."
"Then your majesty is of course the mighty General Sima Zhuguo of the Cavalry!" Liu Jin rolled his eyes and blurted out.
"The mighty General Sima Zhuguo who guards the country and is the mighty cavalry general?" Zhu Houzhao was very satisfied and nodded immediately, "Liu Jin still understands me. Come on, continue, which side do you want to bet on?" On this side, Tianjuan's voice became the background sound of their betting.
【I think everyone finds this ridiculous. 】
[Who is Huo Qubing? He marched thousands of miles and conquered the Wolf's Lair. His achievements are beyond description.]
[For this reason, Emperor Wu of Han also created the title of Marquis of Guanjun for him, and granted him the positions of Grand Marshal, General of the Cavalry, and General.]

[This title and position was established specifically for one person, and I'm afraid this is the only person in history. 】
[So, what merits did Wang Zhi have to give himself this nickname? ]
【However, Wang Zhi was daring at the time. Not only that, he also used the power given to him by Zhu Jianshen to turn the entire Ming Dynasty court upside down. 】

"That's right, how can I be so worthy of this, how can I be so worthy of this!"
While Zhu Houzhao was singing the notes, he did not forget to sing along with the Heavenly Scroll. It was obvious that he did not miss a word of what was said in the Heavenly Scroll and listened to it all.
In response, the other eunuchs also started to make a noise, "Ha, how can we be so worthy of this, how can we be so worthy of this, hahahaha!"

Zhu Houzhao was laughing and chatting happily, but Emperor Wu of Han, who had just sent the empress dowager to the North Palace, was looking at the heavenly scroll with emotion.
My Marquis of Guanjun, my General of the Cavalry.
Fenglangjuxu, anyone who openly offends the mighty Han will be punished no matter how far away they are!
All these things are going to happen in the future, but now Huo Qubing has just been born and is still a tiny ball, so he has to wait patiently.
He couldn't help but ask Wei Qing beside him: "Wei Qing, I asked you to be a small guard of Jianzhang Palace, are you unwilling?"
Wei Qing was silent for a moment: "I dare not."

"No, you should be unwilling. Only in this way, when you rush to the grasslands in the future to help me drive out the Huns, you will be more satisfied. Do you understand?"
Wei Qing was shocked: "Yes, I understand."

The voice in the scroll was talking, but the content seemed to have nothing to do with his Han Dynasty. But Liu Che wanted to know where the Western Ocean mentioned in the scroll was and what the cannon was.
Perhaps, in addition to expelling the Huns, he could do something else and get some new inspiration.
So he cheered himself up again.

[Ministers were either imprisoned or had their homes confiscated, and they suffered terribly. In the end, more than a thousand ministers resigned or lost their jobs, and the entire court was plunged into a bloody storm.]
[Even the leaders of the two institutions, Jinyiwei and Dongchang, could not escape unscathed.]

[The final result of this incident was that Zhu Jianshen's court was completely reorganized, and he firmly controlled the government. He no longer had sleepless nights at night, worrying that someone would assassinate him.]
[However, after he regained power, he temporarily closed the Western Factory due to strong opposition in the court. But Wang Zhi was highly valued during Zhu Jianshen's reign.]

[The West Factory was reopened during the Zhengde period. At that time, the head of the West Factory was Gu Dayong, one of the Eight Tigers around Zhengde.]

"Hey, I'm talking about you." Zhengde poked Gu Dayong, "You are a eunuch, but you have left your name in history."
