Chapter 904: In the Cining Palace
"Who is it. Who the hell is it. Dare to assassinate the emperor of the mourning family. It's ...... It's a thief......
It's just over now. There is no early pilgrimage today. Even use those cabinet bachelors to fill the scene. But there was no one on the dragon chair, and the early dynasty was not held. What the hell is going on? I'm afraid that these court officials have also received a lot of news to a greater or lesser extent. Although the sources of information of these people are all different. And even the content of the message is different. Uneven. But these people got the news. One is exactly the same. That's the great tomorrow of today. Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun. I was stabbed last night. Of course. The emperor is safe and sound. Or now. These people are not able to sit at home and find out the news in peace.
But now. From the outside, it looked dead silent. But inside the palace. But it's very lively. No. It's really not appropriate to describe it as lively. In fact, in the palace today. The vast majority of places. It's the same as the outside. It's dead silence. But within the scope of Cining Palace after passing the Longzong Gate. It's not so calm. If you stand closer to Cining Palace. You can hear it. A voice of great anger can be heard from within. And some of the palace maids and eunuchs in this vicinity. It's all shrunken. Didn't dare to move at all.
The reason is simple. Empress Dowager Li is getting angry now. Well, after all. Someone dared to come and kill his son. Even if it's an ordinary person. What mother will not be angry when she knows that someone is going to kill her son. Not to mention. What is the identity of this mother and son? One is the emperor. One is the Queen Mother. To know. Empress Dowager Li is now in power. And the reason why she can hold so much power in her hands now. Isn't it entirely because his son Zhu Yijun sat on the throne. Even Empress Dowager Li herself was not a greedy and powerful person. But she naturally doesn't want to lose power. Now someone dares to touch her son. It's not just a mother who is angry about the danger to her son. More of a queen mother. The anger that all his hopes are about to be wiped out.
Of course. Actually all of it. It's all directed by this Empress Dowager Li. But this is not known. She also didn't want anyone else to know. So nowadays. She's trying to make a show. so that others will think it's true. Yes.
So. Now I can hear this man who has always been known for his calmness. And even if it's to scold his own children. It will not be too loud The angry roar of the Queen Mother. Well. Ranting may be a bit of a no-brainer. But it's actually pretty much the same. And. It seems that Empress Dowager Li also understands that she is doing this kind of thing. There is something lacking in momentum. I don't have a lot of experience. So nowadays. From time to time, you can hear the sound of porcelain breaking. to add more aura to those roars.
Outside. Those eunuchs and palace maids who are separated from Empress Dowager Li by I don't know how many walls. Just hearing the voice of Empress Dowager Li was already trembling with fear. All of them were trembling and afraid to speak. I didn't even dare to move. And in the main hall of Cining Palace. What kind of people will those people in front of Empress Dowager Li look like?
As a matter of fact. These people are much better.
Now it is in the main hall of Cining Palace. There were quite a few people standing. It's just those eunuchs and palace maids. Not a single one of them is here. Except after Empress Dowager Li. Among these people who were there. There is Feng Bao. There is Zhang Fan. There are six university scholars in the cabinet. He also has six books. in the imperial court. All the people with heads and faces are here.
Now. These people are all standing in front of Empress Dowager Li. Keep your head down. Not a word. Let Empress Dowager Li stand on it alone and get angry. Throwing those fine porcelain. They were able to hold their breath. I don't care if Empress Dowager Li is scolding. Anyway, she didn't scold herself. What is there to worry about. Speak. It will also be necessary to wait until the Empress Dowager Li is almost out of fire. Let's talk about it then.
That's all there are here. But it is the only one. The protagonist of this matter is gone. Emperor Zhu Yijun is gone. As for Zhu Yijun now. According to Empress Dowager Li, it is. He was frightened. I went back to the Qianqing Palace to rest.
It's just the people who are there. I'm afraid that even the Empress Dowager Li who knows what is going on in this matter. will think. Zhu Yijun was really frightened. Only Zhang Fan is alone. After hearing the news. There was no expression on his face. But I couldn't stop laughing in my heart. Zhu Yijun will be frightened. If it weren't for Zhang Fan, who was in front of him last night. Maybe he'd feel the same way. But last night. Zhang Fan was by Zhu Yijun's side. Even after it's over. He also went to see Zhu Yijun. Zhu Yijun looked a little frightened. The whole thing is exciting. Frightened. It's almost the same after being stimulated.
But. Zhang Fan is not worried about anything. Anyway, now Zhu Yijun has already entered the palace. Even if it's because of the assassination incident, it's very exciting. But there are many restrictions in the palace. It won't be a few days. This state of excitement will disappear for him. Then you don't have to worry about these things.
And now. These are not the things that Zhang Fan needs to consider. It's how to play the play in front of you with Empress Dowager Li. Objective. It is to make all the ministers present feel it. in this matter. There must be some big conspiracy. Someone must have been behind this whole thing. If only this could be done. Then the rest of the matter will also go very smoothly. But if this thing is not done. These ministers are not convinced. Even doubted. Then the rest of the matter will be difficult.
"Bang". Then there was the sound of porcelain cracking. Another cloisonné fruit bowl was thrown to the ground. It becomes smashed. Those present didn't think there was anything wrong with it. On the contrary, a few of them really feel it. Empress Dowager Li's hand strength is getting bigger and bigger. This cloisonné is mixed with copper. Can be shattered. It really takes a little bit of strength. For Empress Dowager Li, a woman who is not even thirty years old now. It's really nice to have this kind of strength.
This way. It seems that everything on the table has been smashed. Feng Bao hurriedly brought a cup of tea over again. I don't know if he wants to shock Empress Dowager Li. Or let her continue to fall. But this time. Empress Dowager Li obviously felt that she was about the same. My hands are sore. That's what it means to sit down. He took a sip of tea from his cup.
Take advantage of this opportunity. Feng Bao glanced at the two little eunuchs who were trembling at the door. Although the two little eunuchs were extremely unwilling. But Feng Bao commanded. They can't help it. I can only walk in quickly with something. The original treasures of the earth will be incomparably precious. Now it's worthless rags. Hurry up and pack up. He quickly stepped out again.
Empress Dowager Li felt that she was so shocked. It's pretty much the same. That's putting down the teacup. opened his mouth and said to Zhang Fan: "Last night." What the hell is going on. You are with the emperor. Now let's talk about mourning the family. Let all the adults present listen to it. ”
"Wechen obeys." Zhang Fan bowed. And he opened his mouth and told me what had happened last night.
When Zhang Fan said that Zheng Chengxian's dozens of men surrounded the assassin, but they couldn't capture him. When several people were injured. Almost everyone present had a surprised expression. Including Feng Bao, who already knew about this matter, was no exception. This is indeed surprising. After all, where would these people present have thought of it. One person can face dozens of people unscathed. And Empress Dowager Li also had a surprised face. looked at Zhang Fan. She didn't expect it either. Zhang Fan actually found such a person.
And when Zhang Fan said. The tip of Zhuo Yang's sword stabbed at Zhu Yijun. It's almost just a few inches away. Everyone present gasped. Including the Empress Dowager Li, who planned this matter, is the same. However, Empress Dowager Li is very open-minded. In his opinion, since Zhang Fan dared to do this. That must be 100% certain. Otherwise. In case something happens. Although it is said that Zhang Fan died 10,000 times, it will not help. But Zhang Fan's life is extremely important to Zhang Fan himself. Empress Dowager Li believed. Zhang Fan would never joke with his life.
At last. Speaking of which, Wang Meng arrived in time. saved Zhu Yijun. and captured the assassin alive. Only then did the people present put down their hanging hearts.
"Hmm. Wang Qing's family is really skilled. "Even the Empress Dowager Li. Even if she knew it was a show. But she still opened her mouth to praise Wang Meng. "The title of 'the first master of the imperial court' given to him by the emperor. It's not a waste of fame. This thing. Zhang Aiqing. The mourning family was handed over to Jinyiwei for full investigation. Aiqing must find out the truth for the mourning family. Let's see what's going on. Did this Assassin have any skills in sending him to do these things? If so, who the hell is it. ”
"Wechen takes orders." Zhang Fan bowed down here to receive the order.
"Feng Bao. Do you want to participate in this matter? Empress Dowager Li suddenly said this to Feng Bao beside her.
"Nope. Dowager. The slave has also had some things going on lately. I'll leave this matter to Master Taifu. Feng Bao simply refused. Merely. If there is any request from Master Taifu. Despite the opening. The slave must do her best. ”
"Hmm. That's it. Empress Dowager Li nodded. Then he turned his face to the person below. Said. "What do all the Aiqing people present think? Now it's time to hear about it. After all, things have already been laid out. Let me talk about it first. Estimate what is going on in this matter. ”
