At this moment, there was a lot of silence inside and outside Yude Palace, and there was no sound inside and outside.

Although Shen Shixing's words in the room were not loud, they were clearly audible.

And it just so happened that at this time, the sound of a bell suddenly came from outside the Qianqing Palace, buzzing indoors.

With this pause, the Son of Heaven seemed to be thinking about Shen Shixing's request, and Yuanfu Shen Shixing asked Huang Yuanzi to go out of the palace to study in front of himself and Huang Yuanzi.

This made the Son of Heaven subconsciously release his hand from Huang Yuanzi's hand.

Lin Yanchao saw that Huang Yuanzi was very sensitive to the Son of Heaven's move, and his eyes showed a very uneasy emotion, and then he lowered his head silently.

Lin Yanchao saw all this in his eyes and knew that Huang Yuanzi was actually very afraid of the Son of Heaven from the bottom of his heart.

It can be seen that the Son of Heaven does not care enough for Huang Yuanzi on weekdays, and such a childhood may be very unhappy.

Thinking of this, Lin Yanchao couldn't help but glance at Shen Shixing, Xu Guo, and Wang Xijue, and the attitudes of several auxiliary ministers were very resolute.

Once the state capital is established, it will not only stabilize the phase of Shen Shixing, but also greatly weaken the power of the monarchy. This is more practical than the Son of Heaven's verbal promise to delegate power to Shen Shixing.

The Son of Heaven finally said slowly: "If Qing is afraid that the eldest brother will drop out of school, then he is too worried, I have ordered the palace attendants to teach him to read." ”

Shen Shixing said: "When the emperor was in the East Palace, he was six years old, and he was already studying. Now it's too late for Huang Yuanzi to study! ”

But seeing the Son of Heaven, he smiled and said, "I have been studying since I was five years old. ”

Ordinary people don't understand this, and they think that the Son of Heaven is not willful, but Shen Shixing, Lin Yanchao understands it very well.

Shen Shixing said that the Son of Heaven had been out of the cabinet to study at the age of six, and he had learned from Confucianism and taught by Hanlin when the crown prince was now seven or eight years old.

The Son of Heaven said that although I became a prince at the age of six and was taught by Hanlin, I was already studying when I was five years old.

In other words, between the ages of five and six, I was also taught to read by my attendants, and there was nothing wrong with the procedure.

Below, the Son of Heaven nodded to the third son of the emperor and said: "The third son is almost five years old, but he still can't do without the nurse, and he has been sick several times. ”

Others can't understand this sentence, but for Shen Shixing, Lin Yanchao is not difficult at all.

What does this mean? I studied when I was five years old, and the third son of the emperor is almost five years old, and he is about to reach the age of studying, but now his health is not very good, you first drag me for a few years, and then let the brothers go out of the pavilion to study together! In this way, you don't have to be scolded, and I will get what I want, and I will talk about the matter of the country slowly.

Just like when Emperor Jiajing sent Hanlin to teach King Jing and King Yu to study together.

Hahaha, isn't this trick very clever! There is no ancestral demeanor!

After listening to the words of the Son of Heaven, the third son of the emperor hid his head on the shoulder of the nurse when he heard this, but looked at Shen Shixing and the three of them curiously.

When Lin Yanchao saw the third son's move, it seemed that he somewhat understood the meaning of going out of the pavilion to study. The children of the emperor's family are generally precocious, especially for power, and people's hearts are even more sensitive, because although they are older than the hands of women in the deep palace, they have been exposed to this way since they were young.

But Lin Yanchao sighed even more that the Son of Heaven is really a smart person, and he has come up with this solution.

He also knew that the current Manchao officials were all on the side of the prince, so he used a procrastination trick.

Therefore, the purpose of letting the emperor's eldest son and the third son of the emperor meet the three cabinet scholars at the same time, as well as Lin Yanchao, is also very obvious.

Shen Shixing had already understood everything, and Lin Yanchao saw that he didn't look at the third son of the emperor from beginning to end.

At this time, Shen Shixing made a move, but saw that he stepped forward slightly and looked at Huang Yuanzi for a long time, and then the Son of Heaven simply took Huang Yuanzi's hand and asked him to come to a bright place in the hall, so that Shen Shixing could see clearly.

Xu Guo, Wang Xijue, and Lin Yanchao also stepped forward together.

The sunlight shone obliquely into the hall through the windows of the palace, but seeing that Huang Yuanzi was thin and small, he looked up at the four adults in front of him, but he was still a little afraid and curious, and his eyes subconsciously dodged.

The atmosphere in the hall was a little strange, and Lin Yanchao's gaze also collided with Huang Yuanzi.

Facing himself, Huang Yuanzi was a little less afraid, and he also glanced at himself a few times, and Lin Yanchao showed a smile respectfully.

The atmosphere was very good, and in the daylight, the Son of Heaven held Huang Yuanzi, and his face was full of relief.

Shen Shixing, Xu Guo, and Wang Xijue bent down to watch.

After a long time, Shen Shixing finished watching, and finally he looked at the Son of Heaven.

The Son of Heaven showed an inquiring look, no need to guess, Lin Yanchao also knew what the Son of Heaven wanted to ask, how is my Emperor Yuanzi? Can it be the Son of Heaven?

Shen Shixing solemnly bowed to the ground, and said seriously: "The emperor has this beautiful jade, why don't you think about it earlier?" Make it into a device? This minister's heartfelt words, I hope the emperor will make a big plan as soon as possible, so that the sect is very fortunate, the subjects of the world are very fortunate, and the minister will retire! ”

After speaking, the other two auxiliary ministers and Lin Yanchao bowed to the Son of Heaven together, and then retired together!

And from beginning to end, the third son of the emperor was ignored by Shen Shixing, which has already indicated Shen Shixing's position.

After the three auxiliary ministers and Lin Yanchao left the palace, Lin Yanchao knew that they must have something to discuss, so he immediately surrendered and said: "The lower official will retire first." ”

Shen Shixing nodded.

But Wang Xijue suddenly said: "Uncle Zuo, please stay!" ”

Lin Yanchao stopped and immediately said, "What do you have in the middle hall?" ”

Wang Xijue immediately said: "Today's affairs in the palace must be kept secret, and they must not be spread to outsiders!" ”

Lin Yanchao's eyes flashed slightly, and he glanced at Shen Shixing, but saw him nodding slightly.

So Lin Yanchao said respectfully: "The lower officials will be tight-lipped if they are provincial, and if there is nothing else, the lower officials will retire first!" ”

Lin Yanchao left at this time, affirming that today's summons by the Son of Heaven will inevitably cause an uproar.

Today's meeting, the Son of Heaven at least has an attitude towards the storage position, and he is no longer avoiding talking about it in the past. Of course, the idea of the two princes of heaven going out of the cabinet to study together, once it spreads, the ministers will definitely be unwilling, so this is to say hello internally in advance.

It is natural that the three auxiliary ministers were summoned, but what about themselves? The Son of Heaven seems to have handpicked himself again, what is the purpose of this?

In the history of another time and space, Shen Shixing wrote what happened today into his book called "Summoning the Record", and after describing the above, Shen Shixing also wrote in the book that he suddenly heard the summons, rushed in, and went through several forbidden doors, and even Yude Palace. He has never been summoned by the ministers, but he has not been able to do so. And the words of heaven are replied, and the holy face is harmonious. is like a father and son in the family, and it has never been seen since the tired dynasty.

That is to say, in the Ming Dynasty, the Son of Heaven never summoned the cabinet scholars to the Yude Palace, but this time, the Son of Heaven was very kind, and he communicated with them and the Emperor Yuanzi like a father and son.

And Lin Yanchao also felt the contradictory and complicated feelings of the Son of Heaven in Yude Palace.

Is Huang Yuanzi really as Shen Shixing said, a beautiful jade that can be carved? Lin Yanchao couldn't make up his mind, he just felt that Huang Yuanzi seemed to be a little cowardly and timid.

With such a temperament, it is difficult to be a stern emperor who can be controlled.

From this point of view, he may not be a good emperor, but for today's world, it may not be.

At the same time, Lin Yanchao also understands the character of today's son better, this son of heaven has no desire for power, even his own son is on guard everywhere, and it is really difficult for him to enter the cabinet and get his consent.

But if you really don't want to let yourself into the cabinet, you won't let yourself participate in today's summons.

Lin Yanchao walked while thinking about it, and when he waited to reach the noon gate, he saw Yu Yuren kneeling in front of the palace gate at a glance.

Quite a few officials stood aside, sympathetic expressions on their faces.

Lin Yanchao thought about it, he had to come out anyway, and it could be regarded as a formality. So he came to the front of Yu Ren.

Yu Yuren was dizzy when he knelt at the moment, but when he saw a young official in a scarlet robe standing in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned, and after trying to see the other party's face clearly, he said, "It turned out to be the lord of the ministry!" Xiaguan ......"

"Don't be polite." Lin Yanchao stretched out his hand to help.

Lin Yanchao bent down and asked, "When are you going to kneel?" ”

"Kneel until Your Majesty has a will for the lower officials, whether it is killing or chopping, Luo will admit it."

Lin Yanchao sighed: "You are wrong, Your Majesty has summoned the three auxiliary ministers and your subordinates." ”

Yu Yuren was stunned for a moment, and looked at Lin Yanchao seriously: "How does Your Majesty plan to deal with Yu Mou?" ”

Lin Yanchao said: "Your Majesty is the lord of magnanimity and sageness, he was angry at the beginning, but now he is angry, but the heavenly family has its own body, and you kneel down to embarrass the Son of Heaven!" Listen to the advice of the main department, or go back and listen to the holy order! ”

Hearing this, Yu Yuren suddenly wept and said: "Back then, the lord of the ministry was a public neglect in the world, and he was imprisoned, and the world was high. And Yu is not talented, and he does not dare to compare with the lord of the department, but he only asks the Son of Heaven to have an explanation for the recital of Yu, no matter what the holy will is? Yu recognized it. ”

Lin Yanchao sighed: "Why is it so difficult to comment on things. ”

After speaking, Lin Yanchao left Wumen Square.

At this time, when the officials all gathered around Lin Yanchao, they asked, "How is the Lord of the Ministry?" ”

Lin Yanchao said: "He has a strong temperament, I have persuaded him, and he can't move." But the headquarters believes that Your Majesty is magnanimous, and will not be upset, so don't gather here, let's disperse, this will not help your lord! ”

When all the officials heard Lin Yanchao's words, they all nodded together and said, "That's the case." ”

"Just according to the words of the minister."

In fact, there were also officials who came to persuade other officials to leave, but all the officials couldn't bear to kneel at the palace gate alone, so they refused to take the initiative to leave. But when Lin Yanchao came over, these officials all dispersed, which shows the weight of Lin Yanchao's words in the minds of officials.

Lin Yanchao strode away and returned to the ministry.

When he arrived at the yamen, Zeng Kongmu was already looking forward to it outside the door.

Zeng Kongmu said to Lin Yanchao: "Lord Ministry, Lord Sun, and the scholars who were locked up were all released by Dongchang, and they all knew that they were rescued by Lord Ministry, and they all went inside to thank Lord Ministry." ”

Lin Yanchao nodded when he heard this, stepped into the threshold, and saw forty or fifty people, they had officials and scholars, but as soon as he saw Lin Yanchao, he immediately said: "Lord Ministries is back!" ”

"That's right, the Lord of the Ministry is back!"

Many scholars were full of tears in their eyes, from near to far.

Lin Yanchao nodded and walked into the door, but saw that many scholars were ragged and had been tortured.

Lin Yanchao knew that they had only been in Dongchang for a day, and they must have been tortured by Zhang Whale to extract a confession. It is conceivable that they have suffered a lot in the East Factory, and the lesson this time should be very deep for them.

"Thank you, Lord Butang, for saving your life!"

"Student Wuxi Nanjin thanked the Lord for saving his life, this kindness and virtue, the student does not know how to repay it in this life."

Lin Yanchao said lightly: "It's good to come back, you want to thank you, thank you a lot to the old man Xu Ge, and the lords here, if it weren't for them to report the news, I'm afraid the headquarters wouldn't know." ”

Zhao Nanxing, Yu Kongjian, Jiang Shichang and others all stepped forward together, Yu Kongjian said: "The words of the ministry, how dare we be, if it weren't for the ministry to go to the East Factory in person, and then go to the examination room, and finally go to the palace with Xu Xianggong to face the saint, how could the East Factory release people?" ”

"Exactly."

Zhao Nanxing also gave Lin Yanchao a long bow and said, "Lord Gao Yi, Zhao Nanxing has thanked you!" ”

The officials of the Donglin Party faction and the scholars thanked each other and said, "The lord of the ministry is righteous! ”

Lin Yanchao nodded, and these scholars also stepped forward to thank them one by one, including talents like Xue Fujiao and Gao Panlong.

As for the rest of his students, such as Xu Huobo, Tao Wangling stood far away, and it was unnecessary for them to thank Lin Yanchao.

And Lin Yanchao also took a deep look at Gao Panlong's name after hearing it, and finally said to everyone: "You all have flesh wounds on your bodies, but the scientific examination is imminent, and the imperial court will not postpone the examination for a few people." ”

Everyone remembered, yes, although they lived, would it affect the exam if they were injured?

But seeing Lin Yanchao continued: "But please remember today's shame, what does my generation mean by studying?" Isn't it that such an injustice today will never be inflicted on any one person, no innocent people! ”

A burst of warm applause rang out, although these people were killed for the rest of their lives, but they couldn't calm down after being insulted like this, and Lin Yanchao's words just spoke to the bottom of their hearts.

Zhao Nanxing also said: "You remember today's teachings of the Ministry of Justice, remember today's shame, if the chaotic ministers and thieves in the court are not eliminated for a day, the ambition of our generation will not be able to apply for the world for a day. ”

Zhao Nanxing's words also resounded with applause among the scholars, but Lin Yanchao smiled slightly when he heard this.

Today's events, after these more than 20 scholars are rescued, their prestige will reach a new height in the minds of readers. But at this time, Lin Yanchao had another decision in his heart.

While the officials were talking to the scholars, Lin Yanchao asked Xu Huobo and Tao Wangling, "What about Mr. Sun?" ”

Xu Huobo said: "Mr. Sun has already been ordered to go to the examination room as a fellow examiner. ”

Tao Wangling said: "Actually, Mr. Sun has never said his identity, he knows that the teacher is bent on getting rid of Zhang Whale, so he uses this matter as bait." ”

Lin Yanchao reprimanded: "Confused, how can it be worth Mr. Sun to take a risk by bringing down such a person as Zhang Whale, in my heart, ten Zhang Whales are not as good as Mr. Sun." ”

Lin Yanchao had already discussed with Shen Shixing before, and after this meeting, he should recommend Sun Chengzong and Ye Xianggao to the imperial court.
