Chapter 167: The Decisive Battle (I)

The Eunuch Party and the Donglin Party, such a blatant competition between the two parties, naturally can't hide it from anyone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

That night, Kunning Palace was brightly lit and there were only two people in the room.

Empress Zhang sat on the stool and stared at Zhu Xu with an indifferent expression.

Zhu Xu stood respectfully not far in front of her, bowing his head and bowing his waist, admitting his mistake.

I don't know how long it took for Empress Zhang to say in a cold tone, "I heard that you gave my father 50,000 taels of silver?" ”

Zhu Xu nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, yes, the dividends of that chamber of commerce, small money, small money." ”

Empress Zhang's face became colder and colder, and she said, "Don't give me a hippie smile, did you put the rumors outside?" ”

"It's not!" Zhu Xu categorically denied it.

Empress Zhang frowned, nodded thoughtfully, and snorted coldly: "In the future, you will give me less hands, do you hear!?" ”

Zhu Xu straightened up and said as if assuring, "It's the imperial sister-in-law!" ”

Empress Zhang was helpless with Zhu Xu's lazy appearance, stared at him for a while, and still said without a good face: "Tomorrow I will send Zhang Yanyao to Yunwu Mountain outside the city, and you can also give me a stop." ”

Zhu Xu's expression moved slightly, and then he said loudly: "It's the imperial sister-in-law, everything is up to the imperial sister-in-law!" ”

Empress Zhang intuitively felt that her temples hurt badly, and she waved her hand and said, "Get out, you are not allowed to leave Jinghuan Palace without my permission during this time." ”

Zhu Xu blinked and said, "Imperial sister-in-law, it will be Grandpa Guo's birthday in a few days......"

"Get out!" Empress Zhang's face turned pale.

Zhu Xu turned around and ran, and quickly disappeared into Kunning Palace.

Not long after Zhu Xu left, Huan'er came in with a bowl of ginseng soup, put it in front of Empress Zhang, and said softly: "Niangniang, His Royal Highness King Hui has always been like this, don't worry about him." ”

Empress Zhang rubbed her temples and sighed softly, feeling a headache: "I can't understand this muddy monkey's rules more and more recently, and I can't let him mess around anymore." ”

Huan'er pursed her lips and smiled, "Look at what Niangniang said, it seems that His Highness has done something bad." ”

Empress Zhang looked at Huan'er, was stunned and waved her hand again: "Forget it, I can only hope that he will drive him to the fiefdom as an adult sooner, out of sight and out of mind." ”

Huan'er smiled coquettishly and said, "When the time comes, I'm afraid that my mother will be reluctant." ”

Empress Zhang also laughed when she heard this, stood up and said, "Okay, don't talk about the monkey, let's go, go to Qianqing Palace." ”

Huan'er responded softly and arranged for someone to lead the queen to see the emperor.

Zhu Xu came out of Kunning Palace, with his hands behind his back and his expression calm, but the fingers of his right hand kept tapping on the back of his left hand.

Empress Zhang seemed to teach him a lesson, but she actually revealed a message to him: she was going to do something to Zhang Yanyao tomorrow!

Cao Huachun carried the lamp in front of him, carefully leading the way, and seeing that Zhu Xu had nothing to say all the way, he asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, what kind of reprimand does the queen have for it?" ”

Zhu Xu looked up at the road when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Not really, it's just that the imperial sister-in-law wants to help me." Zhu Xu said with a chuckle, but his heart was a little heavy. Empress Zhang treats him like a parent, this is quietly helping him.

Although Empress Zhang didn't know what plans and arrangements he had, Empress Zhang knew Zhu Xu very well, and deduced from the clues that he wanted to teach Wei Zhongxian a lesson, so he had to clean up Zhang Yanyao in the palace at the same time.

Zhu Xu felt a heavy feeling in his heart, took a deep breath, and said, "After I go back, call Lao Cao too, tomorrow, I will teach Wei Zhongxian a profound lesson, let him understand who to choose!" ”

Cao Huachun didn't listen to Zhu Xu's words and was about to agree, but when he heard it, he was stunned and said, "Your Highness, who to choose?" ”

"It's okay, you go call someone." Zhu Xu walked with his head held high, and he intuitively felt that he was full of pride in his chest, and he wanted to look up to the sky and howl!

Jinghuan Palace, in Zhu Xu's study.

The three of them gathered together, mainly Zhu Xu was talking, the other two added, and then discussed, knowing that the sky was dark, the two Cao Cai hugged Zhu Xu with high spirits and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, we will definitely complete the task!" ”

Zhu Xu stretched his waist and said with a strong smile: "Okay, you guys go, I should go to sleep too." ”

Zhu Xu went to sleep beautifully, but Cao Huachun and Cao Wenzhao hurriedly left the palace.

This day is destined to be peaceful.

The Donglin Party, led by Yang Lian, launched a final attack on the Eunuch Party, and in their opinion, either the Eunuch Party was completely defeated, or it was a failure and was cleared from the court by the Eunuch Party.

And Wei Zhongxian is also ruthless at this moment, not only to clean up the remnants of Donglin, but also to launch an attack on Zhu Xu, in his opinion, as long as Yang Lian is defeated, then it marks that His Royal Highness King Hui is actually a strong outsider, and he is vulnerable, and if he overthrows this mountain, no one will be able to threaten him in the future!

The mansions of the important ministers of the court and the mansions of the officials from all walks of life in the capital, everyone in the government and the opposition almost couldn't sleep early in the morning.

As long as anyone who is a little more sensitive in this battle will understand that this is a decisive battle, and which party wins will mean which party in the court will have the final say in the future!

In the Yang Mansion, Yang Lian got dressed under the care of the concubine, took everything, and walked out of the door with a resolute attitude.

His original wife, concubines, and even the housekeeper were all standing by the door. They also all know that the fate of the Yang Mansion is determined by today!

Yang Lian's expression didn't change much, but the resentment was much less, he straightened his clothes, and said lightly, "Okay, don't worry, just wait for me to come back." ”

After speaking, Yang Lian calmly walked towards the gate as usual.

Now there are few Donglin people who can still gain a foothold in the court, and they will all sit in a sedan chair with Yang Lian and run to the palace.

Wei Zhongxian didn't sleep all night, standing on top of the attic of the East Factory, looking at the palace gate from afar.

Fu Yingxing yawned, but he didn't dare to be careless, and stood behind Wei Zhongxian and said, "Uncle, do you want me to ask one or two more?" ”

Wei Zhongxian stood there motionless, his face was cold and hard as if he had been beaten overnight, his voice was calm and firm, and he said, "No, let's wait." ”

Fu Yingxing snorted and didn't say anything more.

"If you were King Hui, how would you deal with it?" Suddenly, Wei Zhongxian turned his head to look at Fu Yingxing and asked.

Fu Yingxing was stunned for a moment, and then thought about it: "If I am King Hui, I will go to cry to the emperor, and I must keep Yang Lian." ”

Wei Zhongxian's brows furrowed, then he turned his head to look into the distance, and said indifferently: "King Hui won't do this, this is not his means." I've been wondering what kind of means King Hui can use against me. Now that the emperor trusts me very much, and there is Zhang Xuanzhi beating the side drum, and I am even more fledgling outside the palace, what does he use to fight me? ”

Fu Yingxing echoed: "These Hui kings are definitely not as good as my uncle, I'm afraid that he will play tricks." ”

"Tricks?" Wei Zhongxian's brows furrowed, and then he sneered: "I was unguarded against him before, and I was deceived by him. Now I'm here, what other tricks can he play! With my power, I can defeat any trick! ”

Fu Yingxing finally saw Wei Zhongxian's anxiety, and said quietly: "Uncle, don't worry, we are now ready to do everything and only owe the east wind, as long as today's court discussion opens, we will inevitably win a big victory, and we will no longer be afraid of any Hui Wang!"
