I don't know if it's the relationship between getting older and older, after the New Year, Wanli's sleep has not been very good, often wake up inexplicably in the middle of the night, want to make up for sleep during the day, but sometimes can sleep well, sometimes can't sleep at all, especially after the defeat of Salhu, he often has insomnia all night long.

Wanli's physique is different from others, the consequence of insomnia is not emaciation, but a tendency to gradually gain weight, but Wanli is very rich, if you don't pay much attention, you won't notice that some parts of his body are not fat, but swollen.

When the news of Ye Xun's defeat of Nurhachi came, Wanli finally slept well for a while, but today I don't know what's wrong, it seems that he is going to suffer from insomnia again.

After Ye Xun left, Wanli wanted to sleep, but he didn't lie down for a while, and suddenly remembered that he was just about asking about Liaodong, and he forgot to reward Ye Xun.

Wanli is also an urgent child, and the holy decree has been prepared by the cabinet long ago, and it is enough to send someone to send it directly.

Wanli knew very well that Congzhe, the head of the cabinet, still wanted to protect Yang Hao, so this holy decree was successfully passed, otherwise a eunuch in the inner palace only needed him to signal the celebrant to appoint him directly, and there was no need to go through the cabinet at all.

It seems like a trivial matter, but there are many delicate relationships involved.

After such a big defeat and still want to get away with it, this Fang Congzhe is also old and confused, if it weren't for the fact that there was no one available, it would really be time for him to go home and pick up the child.

This is an idea that often pops up in Wanli lately.

In fact, compromise is also an art, and the cabinet compromises the emperor, so can the emperor also compromise appropriately?

In the seemingly calm court, through Ye Xun and Yang Hao, Wanli and the courtiers are testing each other, but each other's ultimate goal is not these two.

Wanli wanted to make Zheng Guifei's son King Fu the crown prince, but this matter could not be easily spoken, because the ministers did not agree, who let him have an eldest son?

Since it doesn't work, let's consume it first!

Half-asleep, Wanli's thoughts didn't know where to fly, until someone next to him called softly: "Your Majesty, the head of the cabinet said outside the hall that there is something important to see."

Wanli just ordered that unless Ye Xun arrived, no matter who came, he was not allowed to be alarmed.

How to say that after looking at a person pleasing to the eye, no matter how you look at it, you can't see the person's fault, Wanli is very comfortable when he sees Ye Xun now.

But others are different, especially the group of civil officials and old bastards led by Fang Congzhe.

The murderous intent in his eyes flashed, he slowly sat up, nodded and said, "Let Elder Ge come in!" By the way, call the Han general who is on duty outside."

In fact, this eunuch is not the eunuch who was waiting by the side just now, otherwise he would not have made such a low-level mistake.

agreed, turned around and walked out quickly, and soon brought in Fang Congzhe, who was already old, and a Han general.

Fang Congzhe and the Han generals bowed to Wanli in unison.

Wanli pointed to the eunuch who had woken him up just now, and said to the Han general: "Pull this slave out and kill him with a rod."

The Han general agreed, stretched out his hand like a chicken, and carried the eunuch who was still stunned out, until he reached the door, the eunuch understood, and began to shout for mercy, but he only screamed twice and then there was no movement, and I don't know whether he was knocked out by the Han general or blocked his mouth.

Wanli didn't look at the other eunuchs and palace maids who followed up and waited, and fell to their knees in fright, but put on a kind expression, and the other party said from Zhe: "Old Aiqing came to look for me, but what happened there?" ”

Fang Cong is a philosopher, how can he not understand that Wanli is killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, obviously blaming himself for coming at the wrong time, but he can't come if he doesn't come! If such a big thing happens, if it is not reported to the emperor, if the emperor investigates it afterwards, no one will be able to get out of it.

At the moment, he stiffened his head and said: "Disturbing Your Majesty's rest, the old minister deserves death, but the matter is too important, and the old minister does not dare to hide it."

As soon as Fang Congzhe said this, Wanli suddenly became a little nervous, could it be that Liaodong or something happened again?

Asked eagerly: "But Jiannu has raised troops again?" ”

Fang Congzhe was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "Liaodong is fine, and Xiong Jingluo said in the fold that he has been implementing Ye Gonggong's strategy, although there is no big achievement, but it also disturbs Jiannu to take care of one and the other, Xiong Jingluo praised Ye Gonggong in the twist and turn, and asked His Majesty to let Ye Gonggong return to Liaodong as soon as possible to preside over the overall situation."

Although Ye Xun is not in Liaodong, his idea has worked, which is obviously also the credit of Ye Xun! This minion is really good.

Thinking of this, a smile finally appeared on Wanli's face, and he nodded and smiled: "It seems that Liaodong really needs this slave to go."

But he heard Fang Congzhe say again: "Your Majesty, this major matter that the old minister said is also related to Father-in-law Ye."

From Fang Congzhe's serious expression, Wanli finally sensed that something was wrong and asked, "But what trouble did this slave cause?" ”

After Wanli finished asking, Fang Congzhe hurriedly took out a fold from his arms and raised his hands above his head, and said: "This is the fold just sent by Yushitai, because it involves Gonggong Ye and the imperial family, so the ministers dare not be arbitrary, and I hereby ask Your Majesty to decide."

A eunuch took the fold and handed it to Wanli, who opened it and only looked at it twice, and his face sank.

In addition to the eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty, there was also a group of very magical officials, that is, the imperial history, these officials were not of high grade, but they were an official who was in charge of the world and the land, as long as they did not like it, they would bite like a mad dog.

But a headache is a headache, and when he was scolded by them, the emperor had to accompany the smiling face to say that he scolded well and scolded.

When Ye Xun entered the city in the morning, the conflict between his subordinates and the soldiers and horses of the five cities was seen by an imperial historian.

When the imperial historian surnamed Tan saw this situation, he immediately felt like he had been beaten with chicken blood, you must know that one is a relative of the emperor and the other is a eunuch favored by the emperor, these two guys have pinched up, this is a rare scene in a hundred years!

So, after Tan Yushi returned to the Yamen, he immediately wrote down all the scenes he saw, and then directly found the cabinet, sent the impeachment note in, and asked the cabinet to deal with the matter quickly, otherwise the Ming Dynasty may have a big chaos.

Adding fuel and vinegar and creating panic has always been the specialty of these imperial historians, but this guy also has an advantage, that is, he does not take sides.

The cabinet took this fold, as if it was a hot potato, Concubine Zheng Guifei couldn't afford to mess with it, the rising star of the inner palace was the lord of the Holy Family, and they couldn't be provoked either!

The treacherous and cunning Fang Congzhe soon decided to hand over this problem to the emperor.

Wanli already knew about Zheng Chuang's robbery of Ye Xun's people before, but because of Zheng Guifei's relationship, he didn't plan to investigate it deeply.

In Wanli's heart, Zheng Chuang is just a gentleman, and he can't afford any storms, but after seeing this setback, Wanli was really angry, because he suddenly found that the Zheng family, as a relative, could actually mobilize the soldiers and horses in the capital, although the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division is similar to the current city management, but after all, it is also an armed force!

When did the Zheng family become so powerful? What do they want to do?

Dragons all have reverse scales, no matter how many years Wanli has not been in the court, but the military power has never been left behind, and now Zheng Chuang's move is undoubtedly touching his reverse scales.

was just about to speak, but he saw a little eunuch outside walk in, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, Gonggong Ye has come to thank you."
