In the second year of Jianning,

Spring, New Year's Month, Ding Chou, forgive the world.

In February, Yi Si, there are green snakes seen on the royal seat, Gui Si, strong winds, rain and hail, thunderbolts, pulling out more than 100 trees, the emperor is shocked, and the following ministers are sealed.

Sitting in the court, the little fat man frowned, a few days ago, there were slaves and maids in the palace to see a green snake entrenched on the royal seat, which made the little fat man shocked, not long after, there was a strong wind, thunder and lightning, hail, blowing down dozens of trees outside the palace, the little fat man could no longer sit still, immediately convened the ministers to ask about things, He Xiu as the emperor, also appeared for the first time in the court.

When everyone saw He Xiu, they also saluted him with great admiration, but the old lady glared angrily.

"There is a green snake to see and sit, and there is a strong wind and rain and hail, I don't know what to do?"

The little fat man asked with a frown.

"Your Majesty!" , but it was He Xiu who stood up, straightened his back, raised his head and said: "I heard that the minister has inherited the country, the villain should not use it, and the hero has been away for a long time, and he has not been knighted, and the villain is favored and private, but he enjoys the big seal, which is a shock!" Taiwei Liu Ju, virtue is not enough to convince people, and Emperor Xiaoheng served as the third duke during the period, there are frequent ground movements, solar eclipses, this is not worthy of his virtue, although please resign! ”

"His Majesty recruited this person as the third prince last year, so there is a winter snow disaster, today's wind and hail, so people are shallow and in a high position!" After He Xiu finished speaking, he sat back in his place, and the old lady almost jumped up angrily, this old horseman, why are natural and man-made disasters borne by the old man? He got up suddenly, looked at the little fat man, and said Lang Lang:

"Your Majesty, the minister heard that in the prosperous age of Zhou, the funeral of Zhou Gong is not as good as a ceremony, and the sky is moving... When the king goes out of the suburbs, the sky is rainy, the wind is against the wind, and the harvest is exhausted..."

Sure enough, the old lady started talking directly from Zhou, the little fat man listened with relish, He Xiu and the party members turned dark, and listened helplessly, the old lady said for more than half an hour, and finally said this dynasty, speaking of which, the meaning is very simple, that is, the funeral of Emperor Xiaoheng is too light, so the sky is moving, this truth is not as good as the funeral of Zhou Gong, Tiannai is the same thing!

The little fat man barely understood, and couldn't help frowning, could it be true?

This is much more reasonable than what He Xiu said!

The Son of Heaven hurriedly ordered the three princes to sacrifice to the imperial tomb in order to appease Tianwei.

He has not yet erected a crown, and he is not qualified to go to the ancestral temple to worship the imperial tomb.

Suddenly, Yang Ci stepped forward and said: "The minister hears that the only snake is the snake, the auspiciousness of the woman, the queen mother of Fu Wei is determined to make the palace and support the Shengming, Your Majesty is the son of man, but Dong Gui has no queen reality, the palace is secluded, and the heart of heaven is sad, if there is a disease of fog and dew, what face should Your Majesty face to see the world?" Therefore, the petition to crown Dong Gui as the queen mother, set up the palace mother's ceremony, and show the courtesy of the ministers, the catastrophe can be eliminated, and the country will be forever! ”

As soon as these words came out, the entire temple suddenly fell silent, the little fat man frowned, looked at Yang Ci below, the Empress Dowager Dou was on the side, looked down at Yang Ci, but didn't say anything, closed his eyes, the little fat man sneered in his heart, how could he not know Yang Ci's thoughts, to make his mother the queen mother, is it really for his own good, for the good of his mother?

It's not that the Empress Dowager Dou is biased towards herself, and her reputation is too high, and she has become a sharp weapon to restrict the party, so she wants to support the Empress Dowager Dong, although the Dong family will also be biased towards herself, but she does not have the prestige of the Empress Dowager Dou, her father is the world-famous Dou Wu, and her husband is not Emperor Xiaoheng, as long as the Empress Dowager Dong comes to power, the Empress Dowager Dou can no longer restrict them in the temple!

The little fat man has the heart to object, but he can't object, not to mention whether the mother will be sad, just start with filial piety, he can't object, this is the biological mother, if he doesn't seal the biological mother, what will the world say about him?

The little fat man hated these scheming party members in his heart, but he had no way to oppose it, and was about to agree, when suddenly, the old lady stood up, looked at Yang Ci opposite, shook his head, and said: "Li said: The son of the latter, filial piety and the emperor's grace of the Dou family, in the previous life, I thought it was a beautiful talk, and now I take Emperor Huan as my father, how can I not take the queen mother as my mother......"

The old lady did not disappoint the little fat man, and started directly from Mu Zongxiao and the emperor, Yang Ci grew his mouth, but he couldn't speak, the little fat man was overjoyed, in the temple, he finally had a confidant to speak for himself, the old lady said this, it was half an hour, and finally, he concluded: "May Your Majesty admire the steaming of Youyu, and contemplate the idea of comforting his mother in "Kaifeng". ”

In the past half an hour, the meaning he wanted to say was very clear, that is, since the Son of Heaven took Emperor Xiaoheng as his father, he should take the Empress Dowager Dou as his mother, and he could not stay away from the Empress Dowager Dou as his biological mother.

The little fat man nodded, got up with great gratitude, and said: "What the old lady said is very true, since I entered the palace, the Empress Dowager Dou regards me as a child, and I also regard me as a biological mother. The Son of Heaven said so, and the hundred officials naturally couldn't make a sound anymore, so they could only sigh, but the eyes that looked at the old lady were even more unkind.

The old lieutenant ignored it, looked up, smiled at the little fat man, and sat down.

To tell the truth, the little fat man is more and more respectful of this friend who often chats with him, smiling and winking at him, He Xiu was furious, looking at the old man next to him, the more he looked at it, the more angry he became, what a thief, he dared to bewitch the old man and his apprentice, if it wasn't for taking care of the prestige of the little fat man, maybe he would have fought with the old lady by now!

Although the little fat man can't be crowned Empress Dowager Dong for the time being, he can't hurt his mother's heart, and then ordered to worship Dong Gui's brother as the ruling Jinwu.

Dong Pet is also his uncle, he has loved himself since he was a child, and the little fat man wants to canonize him, which is also justified, and the ministers have no objections.

This is the end of this court meeting.

The little fat man originally wanted to talk to the four princes about spring planting, but the old lady really delayed it for too long, and the court discussion could not be held until the evening, so he could only give up, and the little fat man decided to talk about it again tomorrow.

returned to the palace and went to meet the Dong family, but the Dong family was gone, and the little fat man couldn't cry or laugh, but the position of the first queen mother, why is it so? At the gate of the palace, after a long time, Dong ordered him to come in, the little fat man entered the palace with a smile, but Dong forced his eyes and didn't say a word, the little fat man waved his hand and let everyone leave, and then jumped behind Dong and carefully beat Dong's shoulder.

"Hmph, what are you doing here?"

"Go find your birth mother!"

The little fat man grinned and said, "Mother, don't be angry, this is all expedient." Dong Shi opened his eyes, his eyes were a little red, and said, "Expediency? Dou Wudu is already dead, why do you still want Dou Miao to come to the court? Do you think your mother is not as good as her? That's right, she is a big family, or the daughter of three monarchs, which is like me, just a poor family..."

Seeing that my mother was about to cry, the little fat man was also anxious, silently knelt in Dong's ear, and said: "Mother, now that the government is in power, I can't fully grasp it, just because I'm too young to speak, only when the Empress Dowager Dou comes to the court and suppresses the courtiers with prestige, I can say a few words, if there is no Empress Dowager Dou, I may have to stay in the palace all day long like when I first entered the palace, and I can't go out..."

"Then Yang Ci contacted you, it's not a good intention, he wants to use you, suppress the Empress Dowager Dou, so that I have no supporters in the temple, those policies can only be implemented after the Empress Dowager Dou agrees, if there is no her, the ministers agree on their own, what else can I do?"

After the little fat man explained, Dong's eyes widened sharply and said, "Oops! Something that almost hurt you! That thief, I sent someone to contact me before, I thought he was a gentleman, but I didn't expect him to be such a traitor, Dalang, catch him and kill him! The little fat man shook his head with a wry smile and said, "If I kill him, how can the ministers stop?" ”

"So what? Didn't you kill a Dou Wu, and you were still afraid of him? ”

"Shhhh Mother is silent! That Dou Wu died in the hands of Hou Lan, what does it have to do with me! The little fat man was so frightened that he almost jumped up, Dong gave him a blank look, and then nodded, without words.

"Mother, don't say anything more, as for Yang Ci, you continue to contact him, don't show hostility, it's better to be like before, don't ask anything from him, if he asks you to do something, you just tell me..."

The mother and son quietly discussed in the Yongle Palace.
