Chapter 120: Victory in the First Battle (Part II)

According to the process, the next step is the inspection time: the prince and his companion Yu returned to the Wenhua Hall again, and asked the lecturer about some of the things that were not very clear today.

But the three-character scripture is really only the foundation of the foundation, and it does not involve complicated truths, and the prince has already read it, so the prince has nothing to ask, and the lecturer has nothing to say, and in the end, the prince recited it again in front of Chen Jingbang and what he learned today, and Chen Jingbang immediately announced the end of the class.

At this time, a eunuch dressed in the costume of a young eunuch stepped forward and handed the book in his hand to Chen Jingbang.

This eunuch is none other than Chen Ju, who was just transferred to the prince's side a few days ago. His current charge is to "serve the prince and record the words and deeds of the prince's view of politics" - the prince reads a note every day, which was defined by the emperor as "viewing politics", and the book that Chen Ju handed to Chen Jingbang just now is the dialogue between the prince and Gao Pragmatic and Feng Bao after observing the government.

Chen Ju had studied and practiced calligraphy in the celebrant in his early years, and his performance was good, so he got this errand [Note: The cause and development of the eunuch's reading by the celebrant eunuch, readers are interested in checking themselves, and I may be ......criticized again if I write it in], and he not only has to record it once, but also copy it twice, and finally in triplicate: one is kept on file in the celebrant eunuch, one is handed over to the emperor, and one is transferred to the cabinet by the speaker on the same day.

There is no doubt that this copy was forwarded to the Cabinet.

Feng Bao was also standing beside Zhu Yijun at this time, looking gloomily at the thin book being picked up by Chen Jingbang, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.

Although theoretically speaking, Feng Bao's "officialdom status" is 108,000 miles higher than Gao Pragmatic, but he can't stand it in the eyes of the emperor, the eunuch is just a house slave, and Gao Pragmatic is a "bachelor" no matter how young he is-a fake bachelor, so Feng Bao can only stand aside when the prince is studying, Gao Pragmatic has a pineapple desk and a straight-backed wooden chair that is twice as wide as the desks of the students in later generations, and he is sitting there seriously at the moment, looking at the three-character scripture spread out on the desk very seriously.

Even Zhu Yijun felt that Gao pragmatic reading was really serious: with the knowledge of Gao Shi Reading, what else is there to look at in these three-character scriptures? Lonely is backwards.

However, Gao pragmatic didn't actually read a word, he just used the special technique he used in some meetings in later generations: concentrate and wander the world......

Yes, while the inspiration just now was still there, Gao Pragmatic was thinking hard about why Li Guifei's use of Feng Bao before and after Longqing's death was obvious, and he intuitively thought that this might be the key to getting rid of Feng Bao.

Feng Bao can be trusted and reused by Concubine Li, first of all, it must be because he was transferred to the Yuwang Mansion at that time, and after following him for a long time, of course, it is easy to gain trust. But this reason must not be enough, because there are many eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty, and there are not many eunuchs assigned by Yuwangfu, why are others not as important as Feng Bao? It can't be the forerunner of Lord Feng Baowei, or Chang Yu II, right?

Gao pragmatic subconsciously glanced at Feng Bao.

But that's right, the white face is beardless, the roots of the beard are gone, and then think about it, the smell on his body is very strong, and it is indeed the performance of a normal eunuch - besides, the harem system of the Ming Dynasty is extremely strict, and the eunuchs who really serve by the concubines are very few, and when there are eunuchs, there will definitely be palace maids by their side, and it is impossible for the harem concubines to be alone with the eunuchs, even if Li Guifei talks to her younger brother Li Wenjin, who has entered the palace, there are palace maids standing at the door.

Talking about concubines, even the empress dowager has to be controlled - when Yingzong ascended the throne, he was too young to govern, and the empress dowager was in charge, and because it was inconvenient to meet with important ministers, the vote system was created. So Feng Bao will definitely not be favored for some dirty reasons such as "male roots are not pure", and what Zhang Juzheng has an improper relationship with Empress Dowager Li in the wild history is also pure nonsense - if you have to say that Empress Dowager Li thinks Zhang Juzheng is handsome and wants to use him, then I have nothing to say. Besides, Empress Dowager Li quietly showed "The Biography of Huo Guang" to Zhu Yijun, saying that she admired Zhang Juzheng? This all implies that the emperor will kill him sooner or later......

Think about it again, Zhu Yijun later liquidated Zhang Juzheng, and by the way, Feng Baofa was assigned to Nanjing Xiaoling to grow vegetables, what did Empress Dowager Li do? Well...... There are only four words "The Queen Mother Asks the Reason" [Wufeng Note: "Bao Zhifa Nanjing also, the Queen Mother asks the reason."] ”]。

It seems that the Empress Dowager Li still remembered Feng Bao at that time, but the problem was that after the emperor explained, especially when the emperor said that when King Lu got married, because the folk jewelry was dedicated to Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao by "shameless ministers", the queen mother couldn't buy enough suitable jewelry outside the palace......

It can be seen that Concubine Li or Empress Dowager Li has no personal feelings for Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao - even if she has, it is far less than her concern for her two sons, she uses Zhang Juzheng because Zhang Juzheng is capable; She used Feng Bao ...... It should be that Feng Bao served well before, and he was able to cooperate with Zhang Ju just right.

Because only in this way will the country not be in chaos, and the throne of his son will be secure.

It can be seen that Li Guifei's purpose is, in the final analysis, to let her son sit firmly on the throne of the emperor, and there will be no bad situation of "the lord and the country are suspicious".

This in turn explains that when Long Qing just died, Gao Gong's unintentional sentence of "ten-year-old son of heaven, how to govern the world" actually led to his dignified care for his life, and was directly pushed to the end by the empress dowager of the two palaces in the name of the emperor, and did not even give a chance to distinguish, so he asked to go to work and return to his hometown immediately.

You must know that the edict is terrifying enough: there are scholars and scholars who are dictatorial and arbitrary, and forcibly take away the prestige and blessings of the imperial court from themselves, and the emperor is not allowed to dominate the dictatorship. I wonder what he wants? My mother and son were terrified. Gao arched back to his hometown to live idle, and was not allowed to stay.

Zhang Juzheng instructed and Feng Bao did not mention the crime of false accusation, Gao Pragmatic focused his thoughts on "my mother and son are terrified" at the moment.

Frightened! That's the key!

The edict of the Emperor Daxing has been promulgated, the emperor's throne has been corrected, and the division of monarchs and ministers has been determined, why is it because of Gao Gong's unintentional words that the mother and son of the Queen Mother and Emperor are "frightened"?

The reason is nothing more than two points: first, Gao Gong was an important minister among the important ministers in the Longqing Dynasty, and the first emperor relied on him for everything, so Gao Gong's prestige was in full swing at this time. During the reign of Sanyang in the previous generation, after the early collapse of Wuzong, he was able to surpass the royal family and set such a major event as Zhu Houxi as the son of heaven. Later, Jiajing succeeded to the throne, due to political differences, Yang Tinghe even directly returned the emperor's edict many times, refusing to issue and execute, although after a difficult tug-of-war, it was Jiajing who won the victory in the end, but it can also be seen from it that in the case of the young son of heaven, how much power is the first assistant of the cabinet! Then Empress Dowager Li was afraid that Gao Gong really had the intention of "abolishing the monarch and setting up another one", which cannot be said to be incomprehensible.

Second, Feng Bao was able to become the palm seal of the master of ceremonies immediately after the death of Longqing, obviously with the Empress Dowager Li behind him, and Gao Gong because Feng Bao was relatively "level" among the eunuchs, which was extremely similar to Liu Jin back then, so he has been suppressing Feng Bao. This move is taken for granted by Gao Gong, he wants to prevent the eunuchs from messing with the government! But in the eyes of Empress Dowager Li, it is not necessarily - you are challenging the mourning family!

Because in her eyes, Feng Bao is her person, and let him be the master of ceremonies and the palm seal to ensure that the power is in the hands of the emperor, not in the hands of Meng Chong's "high-arched private"!
