"I, Wei Bao, am here first, thank you for your love!" Wei Bao said happily again: "If there is anything else, you can go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate Prison to find me, I love to help the most, everyone's business is my business!" If there is an official letter from me to be officially promoted, please transfer it to the prison! ”

Dizzy.

Who is this?

When all the officials heard Wei Bao's rude words, they all frowned, looking at Xinke Tanhualang's white and innocent appearance, harmless to humans and animals, they really didn't expect it to be such a person.

Wei Bao has repeatedly subverted everyone's impression of him, and now everyone can imagine whether they have seen Wei Bao beating a group of high-ranking officials in the palace or not, Wei Bao is definitely a person who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and dares to do anything.

Wei Bao is not stupid, he naturally knows that if Yang Lian and several other hardcore ministers of the Donglin Party are forced to leave the Duchayuan and Dali Temple, the entire Donglin Party will hate himself!

But Wei Bao is not afraid, because he feels that he has not exposed his true face as a member of the eunuch party, and he is doing this completely from the perspective of a neutral stunned young man who has just entered the official career, and others are likely to still feel that they want to be promoted, and they are doing it for the purpose of venting their anger.

Wei Zhongxian soon got the news that Yang Lian and others were forced to leave, and they were forced to leave the Duchayuan and Dali Temple.

Wei Zhongxian laughed and said to Wang Tiqian: "Wei Bao is really good! Only with such a person can we do things, and we just don't have such a person! ’

There are not many people who know that Wei Bao is a eunuch and have already voted for Wei Zhongxian, only Wei Zhongxian, Ke Baba, and Wei Zhongxian's most trusted nephew Fu Yingxing and a few other people know, including Wei Zhongxian's partner, and Wang Tiqian, the eunuch who holds the seal of the celebrant and the eunuch, don't know.

Of course, Wang Tiqian didn't know that Wei Bao had voted for Wei Zhongxian, and Wei Zhongxian didn't know that Wei Bao had secretly taken refuge in Wang Tiqian a long time ago, and he also recognized Wang Tiqian as his uncle.

In fact, even if Wei Bao knows it, there is no need to worry, because officialdom is exquisite, which is actually not a big deal.

Wei Bao's biggest advantage is that he rarely has contact with people, and the secrets that come to Wei Bao will hardly be revealed, because Wei Bao doesn't like to discuss with people, and even the closest Wu Xuexia, Wang Qiuya and Princess Zhenming who are next to Wei Bao, still have a lot of things that Wei Bao doesn't know.

"If you like it at the age of nine thousand, you can accept Wei Bao, he didn't have a reputation at the beginning, but now this kid has a reputation, and he is still a Tanhualang with the title of the gold list, and now he has served in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which is a bit of a sprout." Wang Tiqian followed Wei Zhongxian's words.

Wei Zhongxian waved his hand, "He's still too young, let's not talk about him, you say, Yang Lian and they were driven home like this, and even the office room was smashed by Wei Bao, what will happen to them next?" What will happen to the other Donglin Party officials? ”

"It's definitely going to fight back, but it's not too easy to pounce, and it's a big deal to deal with a new detective, I don't think they will do that, and they will fight us first." The king's body is dry.

Wei Zhongxian flashed his essence seriously, and said coldly and confidently: "What kind of things are they?" As long as His Majesty trusts, everything is a floating cloud. ”

Wang Tiqian hurriedly nodded and said, "With Mrs. Fengsheng and Nine Thousand Years Old here, who else can Your Majesty trust?" ”

While the two were talking, a eunuch came to report: "Nine thousand years old, the queen mother has gone to find Your Majesty." ”

Wei Zhongxian frowned: "On this big night, the queen didn't receive a summons, and she ran to find Your Majesty?" What does she want to do? ”

Wang Tiqian shook his head and didn't say anything.

In fact, the palace is already the world of Wei Zhongxian and Kebaba, if you want to talk about variables, after the death of Dongli Niangniang, the only variable may be the queen's mother.

Otherwise, it would have been possible for the emperor to listen to the words of Dongli Niangniang, who raised him, and he was also very affectionate to the empress, and he always respected him.

"I'll take a look!" Wei Zhongxian said to Wang Tiqian and left.

Wang Tiqian heard what Wei Zhongxian meant, and didn't seem to need to follow himself, so he didn't move, and arched his hand: "Congratulations to the nine thousand years old." ”

Wei Zhongxian quickened his pace and rushed towards the Qianqing Palace.

At this time, Zhu Youzhen was still busy in the big house behind the Qianqing Palace, where he specialized in carpenter work.

There are quite a few beautiful unfinished woodworks here.

Most of them are rosewood, if they are put in the future, they are all rare treasures, if it can be proved that it is from the hands of the Emperor of the Apocalypse Zhu Youxiao, the price of an auction of 10 million is normal.

When Zhu Youxiao was in a good mood, he often rewarded eunuchs and princes and ministers with his carpentry products.

The ministers also gave relatively few rewards, mainly to eunuchs and palace maids, and sometimes to the imperial relatives who had not seen them for a long time.

When Empress Zhang Yan arrived outside the Qianqing Palace, she was stopped by the guests.

Zhang Yan had a cold face: "Get out of the way for me!" ”

Zhang Yan is gentle and beautiful on the outside, but she is similar to Wu Xuexia and Wang Qiuya's beauties, she is also a soft personality and an ice beauty, especially like Wu Xuexia.

Although Wang Qiuya is also this kind of character, after all, she is an ordinary folk girl, she has experienced less things, she has been oppressed more since she was a child, and in terms of personality, she is not as strong as an official girl.

Zhang Yanzi Zu'e, nicknamed Baozhu, is a native of Xiangfu County, Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan Province, and his father Zhang Guoji.

She is actually not even twenty years old this year, she is only 19 years old, less than four years older than Wei Bao, and more than three years old.

In the first year of the Apocalypse, Zhang Yan, who was fifteen years old at the time, was the first beauty selected by the "Eight Levels" from among the 5,000 beauties selected in the national primary, and was canonized as the queen in April of the same year.

At that time, Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Apocalypse was going to get married, and he was edicted to elect ladies from thirteen to sixteen years old in the world.

About 5,000 women, including Zhang Yan, arrived in Beijing. Complex processes such as primary, secondary and final selection are carried out in Beijing.

On the third day of April of the same year, the Emperor of the Apocalypse selected 5,000 beauties from all over the country, and after the "Eight Passes" draft, he selected three ladies in the Yuanhui Palace, namely Zhang's in Xiangfu County, Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan, Wang's in Daxing County, Shuntianfu, Beijing, and Duan's in Nanjing.

Zhang, Wang, and Duan, who can become the queen and who can become the concubine?

One said that the Hakka family opposed Zhang's reason: "This woman will grow up in the future, and she must be fatter and less funny, so she can't be the right choice." ”

Another said that she was later regarded as a concubine by Emperor Tianqi and Emperor Chongzhen, and she agreed with Zhang's empress: "If you are upright and blessed, chaste and not pretentious, then Zhang Yan should be the superior candidate." ”

Zhang Yan and the other three were introduced to the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Zhang Yan was fifteen years old this year, and she had a slender, plump, refreshing, and beautiful body, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse liked Zhang Yan very much.

In the end, it was decided that Zhang was the queen, and Wang and Duan were the concubines.

The history of Zhang Yan "is beautiful and plump, the face is like Guanyin, the eyes are like autumn waves, the mouth is like a cherry blossom, the nose is like a hanging gall, and the teeth are fine".

She was one of the five great queens of ancient China.

In the chaotic situation in the late Ming Dynasty, Empress Zhang Yan was always sober and often admonished Ming Xizong.

Zhang Yan has a stern personality, has a very queenly demeanor, and is a woman who can be a mother in the world.

She despised the eunuch Wei Zhongxian and Xizong's nurse Fengsheng Lady Hak's behavior of joining forces to do evil, and often mentioned the mistakes of the two in front of Xizong several times, and personally punished the Hakka as the queen, so Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka hated her to the core, but because Zhang Yan was the queen, it was easy to deal with unlike other concubines, so the two spread rumors behind their backs, saying that the queen Zhang Yan was the daughter of the thief Sun Er, not the daughter of Zhang Guoji; Because Sun Er committed the death penalty, he entrusted his daughter to the student Zhang Guoji, so Zhang Guoji did not reflect this secret truth and committed the crime of bullying the king.

Liu Zhixuan, the governor of Shuntian Mansion, took the opportunity to impeach Zhang Yan's father, Zhang Guoji. Yushi Liang Menghuan also took the opportunity to make waves.

Fortunately, the only rational place of Ming Xizong seems to be that there is still a relationship between husband and wife, so that Empress Zhang will not be punished for rumors that there is no evidence at all, but on the contrary, he will decisively condemn Liu Zhixuan, so that the eunuchs will not dare to act rashly.

In the third year of the Apocalypse, when Zhang Yan was pregnant, she was framed by the Hakka family and Wei Zhongxian for a miscarriage and was unable to have children.

Zhang Yan hated Kebaba and Wei Zhongxian in her heart, because she was a girl from a rare official family in the history of the Ming Dynasty, so she also had super insight with ordinary people.

Generally, most of the concubines selected by the Ming Dynasty are real folk girls, who mainly pay attention to the innocence of their family background, and do not pay attention to others.

The daughter of the noble family is absolutely not allowed, for fear of causing a situation of dictatorship by relatives, this is a rule set by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Like the selection of concubines and queens, the selection of concubines and concubines in the Ming Dynasty rarely comes out of the official family, and the horses are generally from the people.

Daming's concubine is the least envied in history, not only can he not be an official, he has no power, but he also has to serve the princess carefully, and he belongs to the role of a pure worker.

Zhang Yan asked the eunuchs under Kebaba to get out of the way, but the eunuchs naturally refused to get out of the way.

Because the power in the palace is in the hands of Kebaba, the eunuchs are not afraid of Empress Zhang Yan at all.

"Your Majesty! The concubine has something to see! Zhang Yan had to say loudly. This is Zhang Yan's trick, every time she can't see His Majesty, she uses this trick, in the palace, Kebaba covers the sky with one hand, and she doesn't dare to restrain the queen.

Zhu Youxiao was shaving, heard the queen's voice, put down the planer in his hand, and said to the guest who was serving beside him: "Mrs. Fengsheng, it seems to be the queen, let her in." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Kebaba said reluctantly, I don't know what Zhang Yan is doing on this big night?

Kebaba asked people to let Zhang Yan in.

Queen Zhang Yan was also very displeased when she saw Kebaba, serving Your Majesty, there are special female officials, Your Majesty is such a big person, where can you still use a nurse?

Moreover, the relationship between Kebaba and the emperor has been known to almost everyone in the palace, and even the people have heard of it! How could the queen not know?

Empress Zhang, who is young and beautiful and has unparalleled beauty in the world, would rather the emperor favor a certain concubine than the emperor like this.

"Your Majesty." When Empress Zhang saw the emperor, she immediately knelt down.

"Flat, queen, it's so late, you came to me, what's the matter?" Zhu Youxiao said.

Zhang Yan glanced at Kebaba and didn't get up: "Your Majesty, can you let others retreat first, the concubine wants to say a few words alone with Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Youxiao frowned, looked at Ke Baba, knowing that the queen and Ke Baba, and Wei Zhongxian did not deal with each other, seeing that Ke Baba's face showed displeasure, he was very embarrassed, "Queen, you should calm down first, there are no outsiders here, what can't you say?" ”

When Kebaba heard this, his face showed joy.

Zhang Yan was even more sad in her heart, and said stubbornly: "Please Your Majesty to retreat from others, otherwise the concubine will not be able to afford it." ”

After all, Zhu Youxiao is a weak personality, and he was very helpless by Zhang Yan, and looked at Kebaba pleadingly.

Ke Baba snorted with his sleeves, knowing that the emperor wanted her to take everyone out, so he had to say to everyone: "All stand down!" ”

"Yes." The palace maids and eunuchs in the room agreed, and they would retreat cleanly after a while, and Kebaba also withdrew from the house.

"Can you say it now?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Your Majesty, the concubine heard that Wei Zhongxian was in power, and joined forces with the Nake clan to deceive Your Majesty, now the court situation is already very chaotic, and Your Majesty has always been weak, you should stay away from these people, pay more attention to rest, and put state affairs first." Zhang Yan said.

Zhang Yan has said this to Zhu Youxiao many times, and Zhu Youxiao was very impatient when he heard this: "How is my body weak?" I'm in good health! I read the book every day, and I took the time to make this model today, you see, isn't it beautiful? My spirit is so strong, how can you say that my health is not good? ”

Zhang Yan glanced at Zhu Youxiao's pale face, pale lips, and sighed: "The concubine has lost her words, Your Majesty's health is very good, but even so, Your Majesty should take care of the dragon body, do less carpentry, and care more about state affairs." ”

"You, how do you know that I don't care about state affairs anymore? Didn't I just say that? Do I have a reading book every day? Zhu Youxiao stood in front of Zhang Yan angrily.

Zhang Yan doesn't know what to say, she has her own news channels, this is also a peculiar place in the Ming court, it is really difficult to block the emperor's audio-visual, even the queen, if there are a few henchmen and eunuchs and palace maids, it is not difficult to inquire about things outside the palace from the palace.

Zhang Yan had already heard about the struggle between the Duchayuan and Dali Temple, the eunuch ministers and the Donglin party ministers against Maimang, and was afraid that it would affect the entire court at this time, and wanted to remind the emperor, but he didn't know what to say.

Seeing that Zhang Yan didn't speak, Zhu Youxiao said impatiently: "Is there anything else?" If you're going to say that, I already know it, and you can go down! I'm very busy, and I still have to review the notebook! ”

Zhang Yan glanced at Zhu Youxiao aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, don't forget the old ministers who helped Your Majesty ascend to the throne." ”

Zhu Youxiao frowned, "What do you want to say?" Did you hear something? ”

"No, the concubine heard that Wei Zhongxian's power in the court is getting bigger and bigger, and she wants to remind His Majesty." Zhang Yan said.

Zhu Youxiao said disapprerovingly: "Father-in-law Wei is very loyal to me!" He does things, and I can rest assured! Sometimes, eunuchs work far harder than those ministers, and they are more effective than those ministers! Okay, I understand what you mean, you can go down now. ”

Zhu Youxiao clearly drove people away. If he hadn't trusted Wei Zhongxian and Ke Baba, he wouldn't have given out the appalling titles of Nine Thousand Years Old and Fengsheng Lady.

Zhang Yan had no choice but to retire.

Zhang Yan walked out of the big house, and Kebaba completely heard the conversation between Zhang Yan and the emperor, and glanced at Zhang Yan coldly and demonstratively.

Zhang Yan was not afraid of Kebaba at all, and glared at Kebaba head-on, with a beautiful appearance and noble temperament, it seemed that Kebaba was a head shorter!

Kebaba's figure and figure are actually on par with Empress Zhang, but she is more than ten years older, not the best age in a woman's life, and Kebaba's appearance is only middle and upper, in the world of many beauties in the palace, it is just ordinary, compared with Queen Zhang, who is one of the best super beauties in the world, it is simply incomparable. If it weren't for his own sighs, Kebaba would not have obstructed Zhu Youxiao in every way when he wanted to establish Empress Zhang.

"What's the spirit?" Kebaba snorted lightly at the back of Empress Zhang leaving.

After a while, Wei Zhongxian arrived.

Kebaba repeated what Zhang Yan had just said to the emperor to Wei Zhongxian word for word, and her memory was still very good.

Wei Zhongxian also snorted coldly, "This woman is dead!" Relying on Her Majesty's kindness to her, she has repeatedly been our enemy! ”

"Forget it, she said that anyway, Your Majesty only listens to me and doesn't care about her." Kebaba is proud of self-confidence.

Wei Zhongxian nodded appreciatively at Kebaba and said, "Of course, Mrs. Fengsheng's figure and temperament are really peerless, who in the world can compare?" ”

Kebaba showed a charming smile: "By the way, how is the matter of the Duchayuan and Dali Temple?" I heard that you did a good job this time, and came up with a trick to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle? Did you come up with this trick? Or did someone say it to you? You don't have that kind of person in your hands, do you? I also heard that the Metropolitan Procuratorate is in chaos today? Wei Bao drove Yang Lian's old guys out of the Ducha Yuan and Dali Temple? Isn't this trick of yours taught to you by Wei Bao? ”

"I really can't hide anything from Mrs. Fengsheng." Wei Zhongxian patted his ass and said, "Yes, all of this was thought up by Wei Bao's kid!" He wanted to let me promote him after the matter was completed, and he would be able to make a real shortage of positive six products on both sides of the Ducha Yuan and Dali Temple. ”

"Hehe, this kid is really interesting, at the age of 15, he looks like a human spirit! The sixth grade is the sixth grade, and he is not a high-ranking official, so you can give it to him. If he can really help you eradicate the Donglin Party in Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, your ears will be clean in the future, and it will not be easy for others to impeach you. Kebaba didn't know why, thinking of Wei Bao, her heart was warm, there was a feeling of tenderness and sweetness, she was more than ten years older than Wei Bao, and she wondered if she should have any good feelings for a young man. can think of Wei Baolai, and his heart is very comfortable, like a girl with spring.

"Yes, Madame Bongsheng said." Wei Zhongxian could see that Kebaba had a good impression of Wei Bao, and said according to her meaning.

"You have to keep some heart, the Donglin Party has suffered such a big loss, I heard that Yang Lian is the master who does not want to die, relying on the strength he once made when the first emperor and His Majesty ascended the throne, and his neck is very hard!" Kebaba reminded.

"Yes, Mrs. Fengsheng, please rest assured, I want to sue me, his old boy is still a little tender, and our family has its own way." Wei Zhongxian hurriedly comforted Kebaba.

Kebaba hummed softly: "Then I'll go in to accompany Your Majesty." ”

When no one is around, Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka clan are the objects of food, and they will sometimes make love, but in the palace, especially near His Majesty, they are still very restrained.

The next day, several ministers of the Donglin Party in the cabinet, who had received the news relatively slowly, also learned about the major events that had occurred in the Metropolitan Procuratorate yesterday.

In Zhu Yanxi's duty room, cabinet minister Zhou Rupan and cabinet minister Ding Shaoshi were also there.

"How unreasonable, this Wei Bao, who is he? Is he a member of the eunuch gang after all? How dare you sweep the face of several adults like this? Does the Ming court still have a law? Cabinet Minister Ding Shaoshi angrily scolded Wei Bao.

"This is not a trivial matter, the eunuch party is doing it to us with a clear knife and a gun! If they are allowed to make trouble like this, this time, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the officials of the Dao Dao, as well as the Donglin Minister of Dali Temple, will definitely be cleansed, and in the future, Wei Eunuch and his gang will have to cover the sky with one hand! Zhou Rupan said.

"The dignified and clear official yamen is so ridiculous and nonsense, and I don't know whose power this new science detective Hualang is fighting against? Or are you born foolish? Ding Shaoshi said angrily: "The eunuch party's move this time is also vicious, it is made out of nothing, and it is a salary from the bottom of the kettle, this is a typical frame-up, I never believe that Lord Yang Lian will let his daughter write this kind of confession!" ”

The two of them talked lively, but they saw that the second assistant with a higher status, Lord Zhu Yanxi, had not spoken.

"Lord Zhu, you are an important minister, you should be the first assistant, in the matter of Yang Lian and them, you must speak!" Ding Shaoshi knew that Zhu Yanxi was timid and cautious by nature, and he rarely went against the eunuchs head-on.

Zhu Yanxi sighed and said, "Two adults, don't be impatient!" Listen to me, this matter is not so simple, and it must be said when you speak, but before the matter is clear, we don't know what the eunuchs are going to do? How can I say it to Your Majesty? Wait a minute, Your Majesty thinks that we are colluding and deliberately working against Wei Gelding, Your Majesty regards Wei Eunuch as his own shadow, let's sue Wei Eunuch, it is equivalent to suing Your Majesty, you don't understand these truths! ”

Ding Shaoshi and Zhou Rupan glanced at each other.

Zhou Rupan sighed and said: "What Lord Zhu said is not unreasonable, we can't meet with Lord Yang and them in private, Dongchang and Jinyiwei look at us like prisoners, and when we meet in private, they will falsely accuse us of colluding!" In this matter, it is best to listen to what Lord Yang said. ’

"Yang Lian, they don't have any good methods, otherwise, they won't let a teenager be driven out of the Metropolitan Procuratorate! They are all people who have been officials for many years, why are they so uncomposed? Can't even deal with a teenager? Zhu Yanxi shook his head as he spoke, unable to understand the situation at that time.

"Yes, I also think it's very strange, usually Lord Yang is very determined!" Zhou Rupan said: "Every time we fight with the eunuchs, isn't it all Lord Yang who makes the idea?" This time, he was himself, and he messed up first. ”
