Today is the twenty-eighth, and August is finally over! In the main hall of the Shen Mansion, Shen Yue sighed and said to Chen Xiaoting on the side.

As for the position of the commander, Shen Yue has now lost that thought, so he took the initiative to invite his son-in-law to come over, in order to build a good relationship between the two families.

Chen Xiaoting did not resist this, his foundation in the capital is too shallow, and cooperating with the Shen family is a win-win situation.

As for the grievances at the beginning...... As long as there are interests, the enemies can shake hands and make peace, not to mention that there is no substantive enmity between them.

"Father-in-law, even if August passes, the following September and October will ...... It's not much better! Chen Xiaoting said indifferently.

Shen Yue couldn't help but be stunned, and then nodded with a wry smile.

Shen Yue knew that he was really old, so he would be greedy for comfort and enjoyment, and he would be tired of escaping in the face of the storms in the court.

"yes...... Yes, you are supporting the yamen alone, and you have worked hard! Shen Yue said with emotion.

Although he is older than Chen Xiaoting in terms of age and generation, in terms of achievements, Shen Yue knows that he is not as good as his son-in-law, so he can't put the score of his predecessors.

In fact, Chen Xiaoting came over this time, and he didn't exactly come to chat with Shen Yue, after all, his time is very tight now.

"Father-in-law, the emperor stirred up a storm in the court, and no one can guarantee that he can sit back and relax!"

This is the truth, after all, even the emperor's own son was driven out of the capital, and they are not tools that can be thrown away.

"What do you think?" Shen Yue asked casually.

Chen Xiaoting was discovered and promoted by him, so Shen Yue knew very well that his son-in-law was a person with ideas, and this did help him get through a lot of difficulties.

Chen Xiaoting was about to speak, but saw Yang Kai coming in from outside the hall quickly, his face full of solemnity.

So Chen Xiaoting asked, "What's wrong?" ”

It's all his own people here, so Yang Kai told the news from Niu Jingyun, and Chen Xiaoting and Shen Yue were stunned when they heard it.

Niu Jingyun commanded the Jinyi guards in the palace, and he knew everything about what was happening outside the Yuxu Palace, and he really passed on the details inside.

The emperor fell? Consultation with a doctor? Yu Peizhong blocked the news?

Each of these keywords speaks of the gravity of the situation.

"You go down first!" Chen Xiaoting said in a deep voice.

After Yang Kai left, Shen Yue said, "This ...... How good is that? ”

"Now that the two parties in the DPRK and China are contending, and the position of the prince is vacant, if the emperor has an unexpected ......," Shen Yue did not dare to say the next words.

For Chen Xiaoting, today's Ming Dynasty is like a speeding car, if the emperor's driver burps, the Ming Dynasty has the possibility of car destruction and death.

In fact, Shen Yue hasn't said it all, in addition to this mess in the capital, the Ming Dynasty still has wars with the Hu people in the northwest, the southeast Japanese have not been eradicated, and the displaced people in the Central Plains have ......

The internal and external troubles of the Ming Dynasty have always existed, but it is only in the recent year that the financial situation of the imperial court has improved, and these problems have been covered up.

Second, now this fragile balance is all related to the emperor's body, if the emperor has a problem, it is not impossible to crush the Ming Dynasty after the balance collapses.

"So, we have to plan early to protect ourselves!" Chen Xiaoting's eyes were deep.

Shen Yue nodded, waiting for Chen Xiaoting to continue.

"Father-in-law, now the power of Jinyiwei is in our hands, this is the foundation of our life, so this power must be held tightly in our hands!" Chen Xiaoting said in a deep voice.

"At this time, there is no need to be polite to those who don't listen to the greeting, Nansi can directly dismiss them for investigation!"

Shen Yue then nodded, but he was a little disappreciative in his heart, he felt that Chen Xiaoting had overreacted.

After all, the emperor is not dead, and Jinyiwei belongs to the emperor, not his son-in-law...... rashly attacking high-ranking officials in the Jinyi Guard is likely to be suspicious of the emperor.

Since he was worried about this, Shen Yue said it generously, and there was another debate between the two.

When Chen Xiaoting persuaded Shen Yue to advance and retreat with him, in the post station fifty miles south of the capital, Zhu Xiuyin, the king of Yuyang, also received a summons from Qin Yanwen.

"Something happened to my father......" The news made Zhu Xiuyin feel complicated.

It stands to reason that he should be sad, but the emotions of the heavenly family cannot be measured by common sense.

In fact, Zhu Xiuyin now has two emotions in her heart, one is excited and the other is worried.

He is a person who does not admit defeat, and he has many supporters in the court, if it weren't for the strong opposition of the emperor's father, the crown prince would have fallen on his head long ago.

Now, as the biggest obstacle, the emperor's father fell and was seriously injured, and it seemed that he was more than lucky, so Zhu Xiuyin had the idea of throwing a desperate gamble.

And Qin Yanwen's meaning was also to let him hurry up and find a way to return to the capital, and only after returning to the capital could he participate in this Game of Thrones.

"Come on, prepare a carriage and horses for this king!" Zhu Xiuyin shouted outside.

Zhu Xiuyin herself got up from the bed and began to put it on her body, which easily attracted the eunuchs sent by the emperor to monitor.

Just as Zhu Xiuyin was about to walk out of the door, the eunuch Yu Kuan came up and said to Zhu Xiuyin with a smile: "Your Highness, are you going to continue on your way?" ”

It's sunny today, and it's normal to set off to hurry, but it's not normal for Zhu Xiuyin to take the initiative to hurry.

Zhu Xiuyin said with a smile on her face: "I'm in a hurry, but I'm just going back to the capital!" ”

Yu Kuan's face suddenly fell, and he only heard him say coldly: "Your Highness, Hugh blames the slave maid for not reminding you that the emperor's will is to let you go to the domain, could it be that you want to resist the decree?" ”

Zhu Xiuyin didn't take Yu Kuan's threat to heart, but said slowly: "I don't know if my father falls and lives and dies, this king, as his son, shouldn't he go back and see?" ”

"The dynasty rules the world with filial piety, and if this king does not go back at this time, he is not only an unfilial son who is spurned by the world, but also loses his loyalty to his father!"

These words were polite and courteous, revealing the news that the emperor did not know whether he was alive or dead, which shocked Yu Kuan inexplicably.

But this did not convince Yu Kuan to let Zhu Xiuyin return to Beijing, so he immediately objected: "Your Highness, the emperor is blessed with all the heavens, and the slave thinks that you should go well, so let the emperor worry less!" ”

Zhu Xiuyin didn't speak at the moment, but stared at Yu Kuan coldly, thinking about what to do at the moment.

If the method is simpler, it will naturally save trouble by killing Yu Kuan, but then it will be impossible to do things.

"Come, take down this disloyal and unrighteous man!" Zhu Xiuyin immediately shouted.

After this order was given, the guards standing outside immediately stepped forward and directly controlled Yu Kuan and escorted him down.

These guards who can accompany Zhu Xiuyin are all his carefully cultivated henchmen, so they naturally obey him.

"Take him down, and no one will see him!" Zhu Xiuyin ordered again.

The next thing he has to do is to go directly to the capital to fulfill his filial piety in front of his father's bed with the mentality of a filial son.

If the emperor is safe and sound at that time, and the son disobeys his father for the sake of filial piety, it can also be forgiven.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the commander of the guards came quickly and said, "Lord Wang, the carriage has been prepared, are we heading south?" ”

"No...... Let's go back to Beijing! Zhu Xiuyin said in a deep voice.

At this moment, his gaze went beyond the post station wall and looked in the direction where the capital was located.
