Chen Ying's defeats are very few, and each of them is still fresh in his memory, and when it comes to the common enemy between him and the crown princess, there should be only one, and that is He Fu.

Chen Ying impeached He Fu before, but was beaten back by the emperor, not only did not condemn him, but praised him. He Fu is now the Marquis of Ningyuan, following the emperor on his northern tour, and his favor is quite heavy.

"Weichen doesn't understand," Chen Ying was indeed confused: "You mean, He Fu has something to do with this mutiny?"

Zhang Zhaohua said: "You probably don't know that the predecessor of the 3,000 battalion was the left guard, the avant-garde and the rear guard of Jinwu, and these three guards were all brought out by He Fu. He followed Lan Yu out of the plug and went to the fishing sea, and was promoted to the commander of Tongzhi, and this command was the commander of Jinwu Zuowei. ”

"I'm afraid this reason is far-fetched," Chen Ying felt that it was not feasible: "He Fu has served as the chief military officer of Ningxia and Gansu since the first year of Yongle, and he has been out of contact with Beijing for seven or eight years. This crime really can't be imposed on him. ”

"You're right," Zhang Zhaohua said: "But what if you say that the border army this time is not as peaceful as it seems on the surface, they and the three thousand battalions of chaotic soldiers, privately tandem, colluding, and preparing to make a mess?"

"Border army?" Chen Ying was puzzled.

"In Vermilion Bird Lane, in addition to the three thousand battalions, there is also a soldier. Zhang Zhaohua said: "This army is from Huining, Gansu. ”

Because now is the time for the border army to enter Beijing for training, the Gansu border army came with 4,200 people, divided into guards, and practiced with the Beijing army, and when the rebellion began, this team happened to be in Zhuque Lane, which was the closest army to the 3,000 battalions.

Chen Ying carefully figured out what Zhang Zhaohua meant: "So this time the Beijing camp and the border army conspired to cause chaos, but the rebellion of the border army has not yet begun, and General Yang has quickly quelled the rebellion in the Beijing camp - after the fact, the first evil was caught, and the first evil confessed that there was indeed a conspiracy with the Gansu border army, and it was all instructed by He Fu." ”

"No," Zhang Zhaohua said coldly: "It is all under the command of more than ten officers from the 3,000 battalions and the Chinese army of the Gansu border army. These people instigated a rebellion, because they were dissatisfied with the policies of the imperial court, and did not want the border army to be subordinate to the Beijing division, nor did they want to ask the officers of the Beijing camp to train the border army. These generals, chief and deputy generals, guerrillas, adjutant generals, and other officers were all guilty of rebellion, and He Fu was only guilty of negligence in managing the troops. ”

Chen Ying knew that He Fu should not be able to escape at this time, "Jingying and other border troops have no conspiracy, and they negotiate a rebellion with the army from Gansu alone, no matter how you look at this, it is very strange." ”

Zhang Zhaohua also smiled slightly: "Isn't it." ”

The candlelight flickered, but this dim light illuminated her empty and cold look, and even Chen Ying's heart trembled slightly.

When the summer heat became hot, Zhang Zhaohua returned to her dormitory, only to feel sweaty, she soaked hard for a long time before she came out to refresh, and sat on the couch to review the mountains of notes.

Gao Chi's head was depressed for half a month, he took the medicine and went to bed early, he was short of energy, the emperor didn't know whether it was intentional or not, and arranged more homework for him before leaving, which could not be a little slack, because one day Gao Chi did not arrive at the Wenhua Hall on time, and three days later the emperor's edict came, reprimanding him, saying that he was inattentive, Zhang Zhaohua felt incomprehensible, since he wanted the prince to focus on his studies, then he still listened to political affairs? People's time and energy are not limited.

So Zhang Zhaohua took charge of the whole situation, and even walked to the front of the stage and handled the mutiny with full authority. Gao Chi was really uncomfortable, so he only told her a little bit, asking her to show him the recital sent to Beijing, but when Zhang Zhaohua saw the recital drawn up by the cabinet, he knew that he must not show it to him, otherwise he would definitely not agree to the result.

When Gao Chi woke up the next day, Zhang Zhaohua was already dressed, and he couldn't help but say: "I felt like you fell asleep last night, and it seems that you got up just a little bit." ”

Zhang Zhaohua probably slept for less than three hours, but she has always been full of energy, and there is no tiredness, "I have read all the backlog of chapters yesterday, a stack on the right can be sent directly to the political secretary, and twenty-one on the left, all of which are faulty, you can find them to change them, there are still a few copies in it, you have to call back, or you will send it directly to the headquarters, and ask those few books to read, anyway, I look like the people below make their own opinions." ”

"Where's the Sixth Nine Qing's disposition of the mutiny," he asked, "You can show me first." ”

"It's already been sent to Beijing," Zhang Zhaohua said, "and ask the cabinet if there is a copy." She shirked to the cabinet, Yang Shiqi and Huang Huai should know how to appease him, she still has things to do now.

At this time, a crisp and pleasant children's voice remembered: "Niangniang, I'm fine." ”

Zhang Zhaohua looked at Sister Yu'er, who was wearing a pink gauze skirt and two bulging buns on her head, and said with a smile: "Ouch, it's really like a jade girl!"

Even Gao Chi was happy when he saw her: "It's better to wear a pair of split shoes on your feet, ask someone to sit on a few pairs for her." ”

Zhang Zhaohua couldn't help laughing, before Gao Chi saw that Wei was wearing a pair of heavy shoes on his feet, and blamed Wei for being extravagant, and now he wants to make similar things for Sister Yu, he feels that there is nothing wrong. But also, Merriam-Webster's shoes have pearls embedded in them, which is really not good.

She has been raising Sister Yu in the palace for almost a month, Gao Chi is more and more fond of it, and has said a few times that the world's daughter Zhong Lingyuxiu is no more than this, and she has thought about giving birth to such a daughter before, but Zhang Zhaohua gave birth to a son, and he did not meet his wishes.

Zhang Zhaohua took out a pair of white pearl headbands from the jewelry box, removed the headband and tied her hair again. Of course, this headband is not a semicircular clip like that of later generations, but a beaded circle of fine silver threads, just enough to hold the two bags on the head. The pearls on the headband are not very large, but they are rare to be of average size, round and soft, and finely strung together. Moreover, this pearl is not from the East China Sea or the South China Sea, but a pearl from the South Sea, which is not visible at first glance, but if you look at it, you will know the value of this thing, and it is something that Zhang Sheng's fleet pulled back from the South Sea.

"Where are you going?" Gao Chi said when he saw that they were fully dressed.

"Isn't it Zhang Niangniang's birthday today," Zhang Zhaohua said: "I'll take Sister Yu over to celebrate her birthday." ”

Zhang Zhaohua walked into the Rouyi Palace, she asked Sister Yu to wait in the shade under the eaves of the cloister, all the concubines saw her to salute, and after a while, Zhang Guifei rose to sit, and the female envoy saluted, and everyone bowed down, saying that she congratulated her mother for a thousand years, so tossing is the end of the court.

There are two noble concubines in the palace, so it has become a troublesome thing to congratulate the internal and external women. At four o'clock and eight festivals, the two ladies want to ascend to the palace, so should they worship Wang Guifei first, or should they worship Zhang Guifei first? Wang Guifei is older and enters the palace early; Zhang Guifei's family background is noble, and everyone has made difficulties. However, the two concubines were very humble, and sent people almost at the same time, one said that the princess of Yongning Palace would ascend to the palace first, and the other said that everyone wanted everyone to go to worship Zhang Guifei of Changle Palace first, and finally Zhang Zhaohua thought of a way, inviting the two concubines to the Rouyi Hall at the same time, sitting on the east and west sides, and calling all the women to join the congratulatory ceremony.

The harmony between the two palaces is a blessing in the palace, not only Zhang Zhaohua looked at the two concubines, who were well-behaved, humble and virtuous, but even the emperor felt happy, and allowed them to accept the congratulations and see their families on their birthdays.

The etiquette of the court is to die, and after everyone retreats to the side hall to rest, they can be considered to be able to say something.
