More than forty people sat in the lobby, and no one spoke first. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

It was a knot for them, and the knot was on the king, but to untie it, the emperor or one of them needed to retreat.

If both sides don't back down, it will be a dead knot!

The emperor is the maker of this knot and will not back down, and the only one who can untie this knot is their Donglin Party.

But a step back from their Donglin Party is an abyss, and even at this time, they are not willing to retreat.

Since the day they were established, they Donglin have the ambition of cleansing the court and cleaning up the world!

King Xin is indeed their hope now, the emperor is disgusted with Donglin, and tries every means to clear them out of the court, they can rely on only King Xin, hoping that he can rule the world as the regent prime minister, reuse Donglin, and realize their grand wishes!

Ye Xianggao, Han Huang and other people did not speak, and their thoughts were complicated. They all want to stabilize the overall situation, and they don't agree with such a drastic 'strike', not to mention affecting national politics, and it will cause the emperor to be even more disgusted.

During the Miao Chang period, Wei Da and others were originally close to Zhao Nanxing, Gao Panlong and others, but later Zhao Nanxing and others were deposed, and many people followed Miao Chang. But Miao Changqi's personality is not as domineering as Zhao Nanxing, and he can't convince the public, even if he has a wide range of friends, he doesn't have much weight to speak, and at this time, he can't speak.

The rest basically belong to Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, including Gu Dazhang, Zhou Chaorui and others. This wave of people is the most anxious in their hearts, because they are now the ruling faction in Donglin, and if the Metropolitan Procuratorate is abolished, they will lose the most.

On the one hand, the life and death of the Donglin Party, on the other hand, the life and death of King Xinwang and the Donglin Party, it seems to be a good choice, each of which makes it difficult for them to choose, like digging into their hearts.

Zhu Youzhen sat there, his expression changed from gloomy, to ugly, to expressionless, to indifferent, and the mood in his heart changed faster.

There were more than forty people, and not one of them spoke!

When he came this time, he thought that the Donglin Party was well aware of the righteousness and would focus on the overall situation, but judging from their expressions, they were also like the people in Wen Zhaoge, and they shouted very beautifully, but in fact, they were all for power and power, and they had no heart for the country!

He even thinks now that Wen Zhaoge's gang is not so hateful, at least they have done a few things seriously, and now that he thinks about it, what has the Donglin Party done for the country and the people?

Zhu Youzhen sat there, his face indifferent, and his heart was sad.

The great Ming Dynasty, thousands of officials, there is not a single one who is truly for the country!

More than forty people, all of whom were officials of all sizes in the Ming Dynasty, as well as the two former cabinet chiefs, even if anyone said a word, even if it was the opposite, he would not be so uncomfortable in his heart!

Terrible silence! Deathly silence!

Zhu Youzhen endured his anger and endured it silently.

The people of Donglin were all sitting there, looking at each other at first, but now they were all expressionless, looking straight ahead, silent.

I don't know how long it took, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help it, he stood up with a calm face, and slammed his tone on the ground coldly: "All the officials who take leave, they must go back to cancel the leave in half an hour, and those who don't obey will be punished by the Nine Clans!" ”

With that, he strode out of the lobby.

A few people opened their mouths and tried to stop them, but no one spoke, looking at each other and unable to speak.

What about calling it back? Could it be that he told King Xin that Donglin would not compromise and send him to death?

Now there are only two ways in front of the Donglin Party, one is to carry it to the end, to force this will to come true, and as soon as the king dies, then there is a purge of the Donglin Party. Second, it is a compromise, the Metropolitan Procuratorate was laid off, the king of letters was kept, and the Donglin Party completely withdrew from the court!

Originally, they were still struggling, but the sentence of the credible king just now 'Zhu Jiu Clan' completely blocked their back road!

Ye Xianggao, Han Huang and the others looked at each other, frowning, extremely uncomfortable in their hearts, but there was no other way to go, and they became more and more silent.

The corners of Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and others moved, and they couldn't spit out a word.

Everyone else was speechless, and many wanted to stand up and say a few big words, but there was always a cool breeze blowing around their necks, making them cold and without a little courage.

The character of the Donglin Party is extremely obvious at this time, and when they have the advantage, they should be as loud and loud as they want to toss, and how they want to toss. But when encountering real problems, they are all evasive, retreating, bowing their heads, and acquiescing.

Zhu Youzhen came out of Yang's Mansion and sat in the carriage, his chest seemed to explode, his eyes were round and cracking, and his teeth were rattling, but he didn't say a word in a muffled voice, just slammed his fist on the wooden board he sat on, and at the same time his lips opened and closed, saying silently, or cursing!

The fist was pounding hard, but there was no sound, and it was not felt from the outside.

All the resentment, anger, he silently stuffed in his heart, and did not let outsiders know about it.

Wang Chengen sat in front of the carriage, his face worried, signaled to the groom, and moved forward slowly and silently.

I don't know how long it took, Zhu Youzhen exhaled deeply, his face was still gloomy, but his heart was a lot more comfortable, he looked up at the outside, and said in a mean tone: "Where are you going now?" ”

Wang Chengen saw that Zhu Youzhen was willing to speak, and his heart was also secretly relieved, and he turned his head and said, "Lord, on the way back to the palace." ”

Princess Xin has given birth to a boy in February, this is the only grandson of Emperor Guangzong, Zhu Xu's nephew, Concubine Liu likes it very much, Princess Xin has not yet passed the month, so she has been raised in Renshou Palace.

Zhu Youzhen thought of Princess Xin, the gloom on his face eased a little, he was silent for a while, and said, "If you don't go back to the house, go back to Wenzhao Pavilion." ”

Wang Chengen responded, and turned his head with a worried face.

This matter seems to be done silently, but the movement is too loud, and it is more intense than ever. The emperor of Jingyang Palace has not just ascended the throne, the foundation is unstable, and when he is cautious, this incident made him think of 'first punishing the king of Xin', indicating that Wen Zhaoge is not in the predicament of powerlessness now, but has reached the ghost gate.

Wang Chengen didn't know that Zhu Youzhen was not clear, so he could only accompany him silently.

Inside the Imperial Study.

Bi Ziyan and Sun Chengzong were there, their expressions were relaxed, and the corners of their mouths were smiling.

Not long after Zhu Youzhen returned to Wenzhao Pavilion, the officials of the Donglin Party who had taken leave began to cancel their leave one after another and began to deal with the backlog.

Zhu Xu got the news, stood up from the table, and smiled at the two: "The Donglin Party has suffered such a big loss, the two teachers should also go to appease, and I will also go to receive education." ”

At the same time that Cao Huachun received news from outside the palace, Concubine Liu of Renshou Hall also sent someone to invite Zhu Xu.

Bi Ziyan and Sun Chengzong naturally knew what Zhu Xu meant, raised their hands at the same time, and said with a smile: "It's the emperor." ”

Zhu Xu smiled, also breathed a sigh of relief, and walked out of the imperial study through the side door.

Bi Ziyan and Sun Chengzong glanced at each other, and Bi Ziyan said casually: "Lord Sun, please." ”

Sun Chengzong also liked this colleague very much, he had the ability and integrity, and at the same time he said the word 'please', and then the two of them smiled and walked out of Jingyang Palace side by side, and walked towards the celebrant eunuch, they wanted to go to Wenzhao Pavilion with their will.

Zhu Xu put his hands behind his back, his face was up, the corners of his mouth were smiling, and he slowly paced towards Renshou Palace.

Now that King Xin is soft, sweeping away the Donglin Party is just around the corner, this battle is a big victory, and the next step is to pacify.

A big stick in one hand and sweet dates in the other hand is the only magic weapon to control the courtiers.

Zhu Xu is now getting better and better at playing this set, so much so that he has become accustomed to it.

"See the emperor!"

As soon as Zhu Xu walked into the Renshou Palace, a group of palace maids and eunuchs saluted one after another.

Zhu Xu waved his hand and rubbed his face, wanting to put on a flat expression to enter, but before he could put down his hand, there was a sound of crying inside.

Zhu Xu was stunned, stepped in and took a look, which was a little headache.

I saw Princess Xin holding a child in her arms, kneeling in front of Concubine Liu, and the adults and children were crying one by one.

It's okay for adults to cry, but it's unbearable for children to be so little.

Concubine Liu bent over with difficulty, held her two arms, and said urgently: "Don't cry, don't cry, with me, nothing will happen, get up first, hurry up, let me see my great-grandson......"

Princess Xin cried more and more, knelt down and couldn't get up, miserable: "Ancestor, the emperor's will has been prepared, to kill our prince, ancestor, our prince has always done his duty, never exceeded the rules, you must save his life...... As long as you are willing to save him, I will definitely beg the prince when I go back, and I will stay in the palace after resigning as prime minister, please save him......"

Empress Dowager Zhang stood on the side and wanted to pull her, Xiao Yongning pulled Empress Dowager Zhang's leg pants with one hand, and also pulled Princess Xin with the other hand, and said in a milky voice: "Aunt Wang doesn't cry......"

Zhu Xu originally thought that he would face a 'scolding' from Concubine Liu, and the palace would be over, but now there are more cries from Princess Xin, but I am afraid that I will suffer several times more crimes.

He looked up, blinked, coughed with his hand over his mouth, strode inside, and said in a deep voice, "Who made the rumor, who said that I was going to kill the emperor brother of the king of letters?" ”

When Concubine Liu saw Zhu Xu, she hurriedly grimaced and said, "Your Majesty, you came just in time, tell me, what happened to King Xin?" ”

Empress Dowager Zhang also frowned and made a straight face, in her past, the royal family should be harmonious, how can there be a younger brother who wants to kill his brother for no reason, this is worse than a market hooligan!

Zhu Xu put his hands behind his back, posing with the majesty of the emperor, looked around, looked at Princess Xin who was kneeling on the ground, and said coldly: "Princess Xin, you say, who made the rumors, the royal family also dares to arrange them, it is really bold, you tell me, I punish him for the nine clans!" ”

Princess Xin's cry paused, and Pear Blossom turned her head to look at Zhu Xu with rain, her eyes widened, and she was speechless for a while.

This will without a seal was 'leaked' from the celebrant eunuch, and it was not issued at all, and it was not on the table to say, Zhu Xu asked this, but he stopped Princess Xin.

She just received a message from the king of letters, asking her to cry, and she didn't know the reason.

Concubine Liu is old and refined, even if she doesn't know the twists and turns inside, she understands very well, Zhu Xu will not let people easily catch the handle, and bent down to pull Princess Xin, and said: "You heard, the emperor said in front of me, the old woman will give you a guarantee, if the emperor wants to kill you unreasonably, my old woman will die with you!" ”

Princess Xin was stunned by the words of Zhu Xu and Concubine Liu, but she still looked at Zhu Xu with tears on her face, and said, "Your Majesty, you really didn't want to kill our prince?" ”

Zhu Xu's face became more and more cold, and he said in a reprimanding tone: "Bastard! Believe that the royal brother is my brother, no matter how big the crime is, it will not kill him, how can such rumors be believed, you are the royal brother and concubine, you must be cautious in what you say and do! How can such words be easily proclaimed! ”
