More Chapter 52 Temptations

Dou Hou stood at the window, looked out, and saw Zheng Zhongzheng directing the palace people to be busy in the Jiade Palace. Although he asked for his own instructions, he was not bothered, and called Wang Yin'er and said, "You asked Zheng Zhong to come in, I have something to ask him!" ”

In a moment, Zheng Zhong entered from outside, and respectfully bowed: "Later, if you have any instructions, I will let them change." ”

Empress Dou glanced at Zheng Zhong, his temples were slightly pale, but there was no wrinkle on his face, and his beardless face was extremely smooth, and he couldn't help but think of the scene when Emperor Zhang was in front of him, and he flickered for a while, and then said for a long time: "The mourning family is not asking you to change, I feel that the noise is annoying, and you also know that the mourning family is widowed and likes to be alone." Although I want to help the mourning family change the scenery in this courtyard, it's just that winter is coming, and there is nothing to see, so why don't you talk about it in spring? ”

Zheng Zhong smiled: "Later, it doesn't matter if you stop, it's just that it's already spread out, and this mess is all over the courtyard, isn't it also an obstacle?" ”

Dou Hou pointed to the stones and tools placed outside the window and said, "Zheng Zhong, the mourning family has always felt that you are an organized person, why don't you have an opinion on doing things now?" ”

"I don't understand, please make it clear!" Zheng Zhong Shili asked.

"I'm afraid you really don't understand, all projects are constructed in spring, how can you do it in autumn? Also, there must be a plan for this imported material, and you can't help but ask how much, as soon as it is transported into the palace, in case it can't be used, not to mention the waste, it will also disturb the palace a lot! When the first emperor was there, he advocated frugality, I didn't want to come to repair the courtyard, I lived here, no matter how good the repair was, I didn't have the heart to see. But even if it is the emperor's filial piety, I can't refuse! That's it, Yin'er, the Xuanming Hall is empty, you can let people clean it out in a while, and the mourning family will move over in a few days, so as not to have a headache looking at these things! After Dou Hou finished speaking, he waved his hand and asked Zheng Zhong to retreat.

Zheng Zhong smiled secretly and slowly withdrew. He went to see Li He that day, and the two discussed that the emperor would first let the emperor show filial piety to the queen, and then repair the palace. She is widowed and has a male favorite, so she naturally doesn't want to have many people in her palace, so she will move to another hall. The treasure in the corpse of the Tianliu Seal can be said when it is transported, and it cannot be moved lightly, so as not to damage the national body. Dou Houben also thought that he would not leave for a few days, and he would comply, and when the time came, he would just learn from it.

Sure enough, the first step of the plan was successfully completed. Zheng Zhong smiled and instructed everyone to continue the project, and began to pay attention to the movements of the palace people.

Wang Yin'er is the personal maid brought out of the palace by Queen Dou, and she has been accompanied by her since she was a child, but her temperament is very different from that of Queen Dou. She has a quiet personality and a kind heart, if there are any big or small things in the palace and outside the palace, if she can't do it well, and if she is afraid of being scolded, she will find Wang Yin'er to intercede. As long as she can help, she will never refuse.

She arranged for the maidservants to clean the palace, but found that the corners of the palace had been damaged because it had been uninhabited for a long time. couldn't help frowning, and came to discuss with Zheng Zhong again.

Zheng Zhong had already thought about letting the queen move quickly and heard that the corner of the hall was damaged, so he immediately found a craftsman to rush to work in the starry night, and in a few days, not only did the corner of the hall be repaired, but the inner room was also painted.

Wang Yin'er inspected it back and forth, and felt that it was quite satisfactory, so she cleaned it up again and respectfully asked to move back to the palace. Dou Hou ordered someone to put the Tianliu Seal in a brocade box, wrapped it in a bright yellow forging, and then he was about to get off, Zheng Zhong, who was outside the palace, saw the Tianliu Seal, and trotted over and said: "Slow down"

Dou Hou paused and looked at him and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Zheng Zhong gave a deep salute and said: "Later, why is the Tianliu Seal in the harem, isn't Your Majesty already in power?" ”

Empress Dou's face sank, and a pair of radiant eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of murderous intent, "Is this what you should ask as a eunuch?" ”

Zheng Zhong hurriedly knelt on the ground, thought about what he had discussed with Li He before, and said: "Later, the minister followed the Ming Emperor since he was a child, and then followed the first emperor, and he was loyal to the Han Dynasty. ”

"The Principle of the Six Seals?" Empress Dou looked at Zheng Zhong for a long time before she said, "What is the truth of the Six Seals you said?" Since the first emperor, the mourning family has been in charge of the affairs of the world, and the six seals are naturally in the hands of the mourning family. ”

When Zheng Zhong heard her say this, his heart began to beat a drum. Empress Dou, after all, is different from ordinary women, she has lived in the palace for a long time, followed the first emperor, and was in charge of the government, killing and punishing decisions, how could there be a little ambiguity, military affairs can still be handled in a good way, not to mention dealing with a small eunuch herself! It's just that the arrow is already on the string and has to be sent!

He turned his heart sideways and said: "I don't know, since the beginning of Qin, there are six seals, also known as the national seal, from generation to generation, the six seals are stored in the Fengxian Palace, which is a symbol of heaven." These six seals are all made of white jade, and they are sealed with purple mud. One is the emperor's seal, which is used to seal the country; The second is the emperor's seal, which is used to give the kings; It is said that the emperor's letter seal is used to send troops; Fourth, it is called the Tianxing Seal, which is used to summon ministers; The five are called the Seal of Heaven, which is used to seal foreign monarchs; Sixth, it is said that the seal of heaven and earth is used to sacrifice heaven and earth, ghosts and gods. As he spoke, his tone turned heavy and a little hoarse.

"After the first emperor's great line, the power of the Lord of Heaven is understandable, but these six seals are the most yang and rigid things in the world, although you are the mother of the country, but it is still the yin body, if you hold the six seals for a long time, it is not only harmful to the country, it is not good for Your Majesty, but also bad for the body. The way of yin and yang is in harmony. After widowhood, and coexist with this supreme thing, it is actually not good for the phoenix body. Although the minister is a eunuch, he also knows the number of yin and yang. With all due respect, in the latter period, are you always dizzy and upset, often feeling unwell, and your body will not heal for a long time? ”

Where does Zheng Zhong know the number of yin and yang, these are what Li He taught him. Li He has already figured out the key, and after a long illness, there must be this reason. Now let Zheng Zhong talk eloquently, but it is more credible.

Empress Dou was stunned by his bright gaze, and heard his words, but pondered, and said after a while: "The mourning family knows the principle of yin and yang, but the mother of the mourning family and a country, are you still afraid of the harm of these six seals?" ”

Zheng Zhong said again: "Otherwise, after you think, Your Majesty has raised it into a coming-of-age ceremony and a pro-government ceremony, which is the image of the unification of the world, and all things are one, and then taking the six seals is like a horse that wants to gallop, and it is deliberately pulled and can't go." After thinking about what will happen to this person in the end? ”

Wang Yin'er next to him smiled: "Isn't that being dragged to death by a horse?" ”

Zheng Zhong smiled: "This is exactly what Miss Yin'er said. Later, Your Majesty is in the prime of his youth and is incomparably smart, if he does not hand over the seal to His Majesty for a long time, it will affect His Majesty's governance, and this consequence must be better than the minister's understanding! ”

Empress Dou suddenly narrowed her eyes and looked at Zheng Zhong with a slight smile, looking charming and moving, but there was murderous in her voice. "Zheng Zhong, who taught you this?"

Zheng Zhong's heart froze, and he said calmly: "Later, this is what the minister thought of when he saw the six seals just now, and no one taught me!" ”

"Oh, you dare to be so bold without anyone to teach you? These six seals are kept by the emperor here, this world is my mother's, and the mourning family is my mother, so it is understandable that you bold slave is here to chew the root of your tongue. ”

Zheng Zhong sneered: "The ministers don't dare to take care of the family affairs of the queen and the emperor, but this jade seal is not a family matter, I think the ministers don't know that they have been keeping the six seals, if they know, I am afraid that they will have a bad reputation!" ”

"You're bold!" Empress Dou was furious, pointed at Zheng Zhong and said, "What if you know, the mourning family is still afraid of this?" You are an official in charge of the royal garden, so you can do your own thing, the mourning family does not blame you today, it is because you are an old minister of the court, if you say more, be careful of your head! ”

Wang Yin'er saw that the situation was not good, so he hurriedly glanced at Zheng Zhong, and whispered: "Later, what Lord Zheng said has some truth, and I also see that the cough is not good in the future, whether it has something to do with it, otherwise, in this way, we will go to the Xuanming Hall to stay for a few days, these six seals, just put them in this Jiade Hall and do not move, if they leave this jade seal and their condition improves, then the nine achievements are this reason, the emperor is also big, and it doesn't hurt to hand it over to him." If it is still not good to go to the Xuanming Palace, it is this Zheng Zhong who is talking nonsense and alarmist, and it is not too late to punish him. ”

She spoke softly, suppressing the anger of the queen of the sinus, "Okay, it's up to you, get started!" ”

Wang Yin'er's words made Zheng Zhong's heart warm, but he didn't expect that his tone was too heavy, which made Dou Hou angry, and a few words from the little Wang Yin'er put things back on track. Thinking about it, I really sweated, and I was secretly afraid, if I was not careful, I almost lost the whole game!

Hurriedly gave Wang Yin'er a salute: "Thank you Miss Yin'er, if you don't wipe your mother, I'm afraid you will really want the life of the minister!" ”

Wang Yin'er grinned and said: "Lord Zheng, I am just Hehe mud, the big idea has to be taken later, you finish it quickly, and live in another hall for a long time, it's not a problem!" ”

"Yes, yes, the girl will speak, the old slave will do it, the girl will live slowly" sent Wang Yin'er away, Zheng Zhong immediately sent a small yellow door to the emperor's palace to report the news, only said that after moving to the Xuanming Palace, everything is fine, please Your Majesty don't worry, you can rest assured about state affairs. That's the code word that things are going well and you can move on to the next step.

When Liu Zhao got the news, he was excited, and he immediately announced that Liu Qing, the king of Qinghe, had entered the palace and allowed him to bring an attendant. At this time, it was already the winter moon, the wind was howling, full of bleak smell, everything seemed to be the beginning of the withering of everything, but Liu Zhao's heart was burning a raging fire, roasting him like summer
