Sweating so much that Zhang Gui sobbed and shouted. Whether it is the emperor or Huang Jin, he is very big for the boots※

Together with the onlookers, the officials were also pale in shock, who of the officials who could be on duty in Xiyuan was not a top person, and how could they not know the political implications of Zhang's wife's move.

There were already shrewd people who ran quickly inside, wanting to report the news to the adults who were on duty as soon as possible.

Everyone knows that the wind started at the end of Qingping, and Daughter-in-law Zhang will definitely not appear here for no reason, and there may be a great political plan hidden behind it.

After all, he is the king of a country, after all, he is the supreme of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and he has to pay attention to a joy and anger that is invisible, and a majestic and solemn. Jiajing tried his best to calm the waves in his chest, blinked his eyes, and finally didn't let his tears fall.

How can Zhang Wei let go of this hour, the emperor has finally come to him, if he doesn't impress Emperor Jiajing in the shortest time, he won't have another chance in the future.

He jerked out a blood-soaked fold from his bosom, raised it above his head, and knelt before the emperor without saying a word.

The emperor stretched out his trembling hand, took the fold, only glanced at it, immediately closed it, and handed it to Huang Jin beside him: "Huang Jin, you and Sun Dan will take a look."

After speaking, he helped Daughter-in-law Zhang up from the ground and shouted: "Daughter-in-law Zhang, go to Yuxi Palace with Lian, Lian has something to ask you."

Letting go of his hand, Emperor Jiajing turned around and left.

Sun Dan still looked like he didn't care about himself, and he didn't even bother to look at the twists and turns in Huang Jin's hand. There are so many officials from the six ministries and major yamen here, on the surface, he still has to choose himself out of this matter first.

Huang Jin saw that the emperor had left, and glanced at Zhang Soul unhappily: "Daughter-in-law Zhang, Your Majesty said, let you in, what are you still doing in a daze?" ”

It was Daughter-in-law Zhang who stood up and followed quickly.

There are a few bits of hot blood dripping on the bluestone slab, and the scarlet is eye-catching.

While walking, Huang Jin looked at the twists and turns. He didn't have much culture, and he only understood it after watching it for a long time, and he unconsciously said to Sun Dan: "Sun Dan, don't you read it?" Having said that, Huang Jin pinched the fold tightly, but he didn't mean to hand it to Sun Dan at all.

Sun Dan didn't stretch out his hand, but said softly: "You don't need to look at this excerpt, didn't Zhang Xian make it very clear just now, please be the first king." When the ministers and the scholars of the world all spoke out against this matter, Daughter-in-law Zhang actually dared to speak up and dared not speak, but she had a little courage and also said what His Majesty wanted to hear. Hehe, Your Majesty must be relieved

Speaking of this, Sun Dan pretended to be unfathomable, and looked at Huang Jin with a smile: "Huang Gonggong is so strategic, he actually came up with such a good method and such a suitable candidate."

Huang Jin was confused, Sun Dan smiled, he was a little panicked in his heart, and he always felt that he had been calculated. Secretly scolded: *** Sun Monkey. He also asked, "What method, what strategy, why can't we understand it?"

Sun Dan said in a questioning tone as he walked: "Huang Jin, don't tell lies in front of real people, isn't Daughter-in-law Zhang your person, didn't you instruct him to come to Fu Yan?" Hey. Cast Your Majesty's favor, you Huang Jin really have two hands, admire, admire! ”

Huang Jin was reminded by Sun Dan, and suddenly came to his senses, and his heart suddenly jumped, and he became happy. That's right, isn't this daughter-in-law Zhang my Huang Jin's person, he is coming to the palace now. Judging by the situation, this twist and turn is exactly what His Majesty likes. In this way, wouldn't my Huang Jin also be regarded as a great achievement?

His Majesty thinks about it day and night, and what he thinks about is the imperial examination. Now, Daughter-in-law Zhang has come forward, Your Majesty knows the relationship between Daughter-in-law Zhang and me, and will naturally be grateful to me Huang Jin. Haha, I may not return the East Factory to me in the future.

Thinking of this, Huang Jin suddenly jumped up, he stepped forward to catch up with Daughter-in-law Zhang, held him up, and pretended to be affectionate: "Lord Zhang, you are injured, but be careful." ”

Zhang Gui naturally knew what role he should play at the moment, glanced at Huang Jin gratefully, and said, "Thank you Grandpa Huang, and ask Grandpa Huang to help me a lot today."

Huang Jin said in a big way: "Daughter-in-law Zhang, don't worry, wait for Your Majesty, our family will naturally say good things for you." It's just that he was thinking about how to divide half of the credit for Daughter-in-law Zhang, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know where to start.

Zhang Gui hurriedly whispered, "Father-in-law Huang, Daughter-in-law Zhang naturally knows what to say and what not to say. Daughter-in-law Zhang is Concubine Zhang's mother, and if this matter is completed, it will naturally be the result of everyone's discussion

Huang Jin was overjoyed and whispered: "That's good, that's good, our family will definitely say good things for you in front of Your Majesty."

The voices of the two men were so loud that they could only hear each other.

Sun Dan couldn't hear it, but he could guess what they were talking about, and he still walked with his head down, deaf to him. Less talk and less action, sitting and watching the situation is the only thing he can do now. The scene performed at the gate just now naturally shocked the entire Xiyuan, Emperor Jiajing has not yet walked back to Yuxi Palace, and someone over there has already reported the news

Coincidentally, the three major cabinet ministers are here today. The two generations of emperors they serve are lords who don't like to stay in the palace, and therefore, every day after the morning court, the three major ministers will come to Xiyuan to sit in the room as usual. In contrast, the cabinet hall behind the noon gate was crowded and lively. But they don't deal much with important matters.

Today, the three major Ranchen are worrying about the affairs of Tongzhou.

Early in the morning, the cabinet minister Jiang Mian made a fuss in the cabinet duty room. Although he is an old man and doesn't take care of things much, he is a righteous gentleman, and he takes the word morality very seriously, and it is rare to dare to speak out in the imperial examination: "Master Fu, how did this Mao Cheng do it, he has been in Tongzhou for three or four days, and it is so difficult to take the Queen Mother into the palace." I think Mao Shangshu is also a person who can't do things

Yang Tinghe frowned and sat on the main seat, and said: "Jiang Xiang, don't get angry, Mao Shangshu has been in the ministry for so many years, how can he not be able to do things, didn't he do a good job last time he went to An 6 to pick up His Majesty into Beijing to inherit the unification?"

"What is good, Jiang Mian still has a little sleepy appearance at the moment, and said fiercely: "Last time, Your Majesty should have entered the palace with the etiquette of the prince." But His Majesty wants to go to Zhengyangmen and practice the etiquette of the Son of Heaven. If Mao Shangshu insisted on it at the beginning, how could it be in today's situation? ”

Yang Tinghe smiled bitterly: "At this time, at that time, no one expected that today's character would be so strong. Jiang Xiang is also going to mention the previous things, so let's talk about how to deal with the affairs of Tongzhou. As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at Mao Ji: "What do you mean, Mao Xiang?" ”

shouted, but no one answered.

Yang Tinghe helplessly: "Mao Xiang." ”

Mao Ji woke up as if from a dream, and replied: "If the Queen Mother Xing wants to stay in Tongzhou, let her stay there, anyway, let Mao Shangshu wait there." Although he was a cabinet minister, he also knew that he had made a political mistake in the struggle for succession. Although the officials of the Ming Dynasty were not very afraid of the emperor, the emperor would not attack him Mao Ji for no reason. But Mao Ji always felt a little uneasy in his heart, and then he didn't like to do things very much, and people gradually became decadent.

"Confused!" Jiang Mian is a scholar of etiquette, and now that the imperial examination question has just used his strengths, just like people who have been unemployed for a long time have found a job, Jiang Xiang has been very energetic in recent days. He shouted angrily: "Mao Xiang is really confused, the question of the imperial examination has been pending for so long, and when the night is long, there are many dreams." If it drags on like this, it is not a solution. The Empress Dowager Xing is the emperor's biological mother, and the matter of what kind of honor she should enter the palace is very important. If it drags on like this, it will seem that we are forcing the Son of Heaven to not be able to reunite with mother and son, wouldn't it be contrary to human ethics, and wouldn't it seem that you and I are not close to human feelings?

Yang Tinghe nodded again and again: "What Jiang said to each other is very true, this matter can't be delayed for too long, you see, how to solve it?" After speaking, he looked at Mao Ji. Jiang Mian is just an old qualification, and he can say some righteous and strict words, and he really wants him to come up with ideas to solve problems, but he is not as shrewd and capable as Mao Ji: "Mao Xiang, you have an idea." ”

Mao Ji muttered: "What ideas can I have, you can do it." ”

Jiang Mian was even more annoyed: "Mao Xiang, what's wrong with you?"

Yang Tinghe sighed in his heart, he was completely dead to Mao Ji, depending on the situation, this Mao Ji couldn't do it in this pavilion anymore. In his current state, sooner or later he will have to be replaced by the emperor. His Majesty is planning to use his own people, and if he is replaced with a powerful role, he is afraid that there will be trouble in the future. If a cabinet political dispute is provoked, the current political situation will only become more chaotic.

The three major ministers of the cabinet are all old. It's time for a newcomer. In fact, it is indeed a small number of people to have only three people in the cabinet, and according to the imperial court system, three to five people are just right. It's a pity that Emperor Wuzong has always done things his own way, and often does not act indiscriminately through the cabinet. By the Jiajing year, the new monarch's energy fell on the imperial examination, and he had no intention of adding manpower to the cabinet. In this way, the three old ministers are struggling to support the cabinet, and they are about to be unable to support it.

Yang Tinghe pondered for a moment: "I heard that Sun Jingyuan has returned to Beijing, Mao Cheng has a stubborn personality, and the Queen Mother Naxing has no problem, why don't you let Sun Dan try it?" ”

"He, he's not His Majesty's old minister. Jiang Mian asked with some hesitation.

"Although Sun Dan is an old minister of His Majesty, he is also a moral person, and he should be able to stand firm on the major issue of right and wrong in the imperial examination." Yang Tinghe: "Otherwise, I will let Yang Shen probe his tone and let him deal with this matter, and there should be a happy ending."

Jiang Mian nodded: "Speaking of Sun Dan, he is also a trustworthy person. Judging from his righteous rescue of Li Meiting and his silence on the issue of the imperial examination. But this man also knows right from wrong. Otherwise, with his prestige in Shilin, if he stands on the emperor's side, we will be passive

As he was talking, the official on duty in a small cabinet quickly ran in: "Three cabinet elders, there is a big incident outside, I just trained the old Kouyang... 8. A different experience at the fishing book bar!
