"Your Royal Highness, I heard that the emperor had met the Qin family, and he liked her very much at first, but why did the emperor forget about her later?"

It was early summer, there was still a trace of spring cold in the courtyard, Zhu Qiming was wearing a cloak, holding "Shanglin Fu" and wanted to read, but Cui Mama, who was cleaning up the study room on the side, muttered from time to time, which made it difficult for Zhu Qiming to read.

Looking at the willow shade outside the door, he put down and read the opening "Shanglin Fu". "Countless celebrities in Jiangbei have gathered in the Forbidden City, and the Qin family is not the only one who can make the emperor fall in love, if the Qin family doesn't try to let the emperor see her a few more times to firmly lock up that good feeling, then, after a long time, the emperor may not be looking for him thousands of times for her."

Mama Cui was stunned for a moment, then shook her head slowly, "The slave doesn't understand." The Qin family is really good, but the slave maid doesn't dare to tell the truth in front of the Queen Mother, why does His Royal Highness dare to let the Qin family see the Queen Mother? ”

If you want to get involved in the court power struggle, you have to grasp the obvious mistakes of others, use the topic to play, first win the right to speak, and then grasp the power of the matter when the other party is difficult to end, which is a common routine of power struggle. With the wisdom of the Empress Dowager, how could she miss the opportunity provided to her by Zhu Qiming?

Qin's appearance, temperament, speech, and etiquette are all outstanding, but this is not the point, the point is that Qin's outstanding magnified the fallacy of the Queen Mother, making the draft results controlled by the Queen Mother seem extremely absurd. At this time, will it be difficult for the Queen Mother to think about asking the Empress Dowager and even reviewing the entire draft incident?

As for the emperor, the injustice of the canonized concubines to the Qin family made him feel guilty, and he was afraid that he would look forward to the empress dowager coming forward to correct his mistakes. And the Empress Dowager's correction is just a foreshadowing, her ultimate goal is to change the result of the establishment and let the Qian family enter the Middle Palace.

Of course, Zhu Qiming categorically would not tell the Queen Mother's scheming in front of Mama Cui, isn't there a more high-sounding reason to make a statement?

"That's because the Empress Dowager is virtuous!"

Although Mama Cui didn't seem to understand, he still nodded with satisfaction.

Yin'er hurriedly barged in, "Your Highness, His Royal Highness King Yu is here!" ”

King Servant? Zhu Qiming was surprised, and immediately got up to meet the corridor, and saw King Yu alone, strolling leisurely by the small pool, stopping from time to time to smile at the small lotus in the pool, with a graceful and calm posture, just like a noble son wandering in his own back garden.

You don't think of yourself as an outsider either! Zhu Qiming muttered secretly and walked to the end of the corridor. "Brother Yuwang, what are you doing here, have you asked the emperor for an order?"

"Hey, third brother!"

"Don't call me third brother!"

King Yu walked up the corridor with an indifferent face, "Okay, okay, King Yue, it's time to do it now, right?" Leaning on the railing, browsing as much as you like by the railing, "I went to the imperial brother to ask for a decree, the imperial brother seemed to have a full stomach, and snorted lightly, I don't know if it is quasi-playing." I didn't dare to come rashly, so I went to greet the imperial grandmother, who agreed happily. ”

"The brocade guards outside the door didn't stop you?"

"With Feng Duo, the head of Qingning Palace, following them, they dare!"

Cui Mama, Yin'er, and Qu Qing glanced at this side from a distance, and when they saw that the two were talking lively, they immediately avoided the side.

Zhu Qiming glanced at King Yu angrily, "I have never had such treatment from the imperial grandmother, or you have a big face!" ”

King Yu slowly turned his head, his charming eyes full of smiles, "After all, it's your face that is big!" I said I wanted to see you, and the imperial grandmother ordered Feng Duo to accompany me. ”

"Don't be careless, let the people of Xianxi Palace know, be careful of your skin!"

"Hey, the owner of Xianxi Palace has to have that idleness, her eyebrows are burning right now, how can she care about others!" King Yu waved his sleeves, floated into the study, and chose a chair to sit in. "King Yue, well done! Qian is about to be canonized as the queen, the mother concubine, the Jingci immortal master, and me, all of whom are deeply grateful. ”

Zhu Qiming slowly sat down and stared at King Yu, "Don't talk nonsense!" ”

King Yu shook his head with a smile, "I am no longer the original Wuxia Ameng, now looking at the entire capital, I am the only one who knows you!" You seem to have inadvertently made a clever move, firstly, to get the niece of Jingci Immortal Master out of the predicament, secondly, to change the candidates for the middle palace, and thirdly, to stir up the situation in the temple, it is only a matter of time before Guo Jin and others are deposed. Kill three birds with one stone, wonderful! ”

King Yu picked up "Shanglin Fu" on the bookcase, only read the title of the book, and threw it on the case. "The third thing you value most must be. At the beginning, he dealt with the auxiliary ministers, and now he is dealing with a group of unscrupulous officials who have no virtue and no talent, just to give those wizards who have been treated coldly a chance to stand out, but unfortunately, you may not be able to do so, and it is difficult to reuse a unique character like Yu Qian. Did you know that Wang Zhi is the most suitable person to replace Guo Jin? ”

Wang Zhi? Zhu Qiming was vaguely aware that another heavyweight was about to appear. He had never met Wang Zhi, but he knew Wang Zhiqi. Wang Zhi was a scholar in the second year of Yongle, and was first awarded the Hanlin Academy to revise it, and the orthodox three-year revision of the "Xuanzong Record" was completed, and he was promoted to the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and he was in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, and Hu Hu became the shopkeeper early.

Yang Shiqi's son Yang Ji repeatedly committed crimes, Wang Zhi asked Yang Shiqi to return to his hometown to sweep the tomb to punish Yang Ji who remained in his hometown, but was framed by Yang Ji.

Zhu Qiming's impression of Wang Zhi is not bad or good. Interestingly, in the future, after Wang Zhi was appointed as the secretary of the ministry, he was repeatedly impeached by the imperial history and the matter, and was imprisoned for this, but although Wang Zhi had never been a cabinet assistant in his life, his bearing and mind were obviously better than Yang Shiqi, and revenge was not an option for his political skills, and there was no reason for such a person to artificially set up obstacles for people like Yu Qian to stand out.

Zhu Qiming didn't know people deeply, and it was inconvenient to talk about anything, so he immediately changed the topic: "Guo Jin and the others should be tried by the Three Law Divisions, right?" ”

The so-called three legal divisions of the Ming Dynasty are the collective name of the Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Dali Temple, according to its functional classification, the Criminal Department is equivalent to the modern Public Security Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate is equivalent to the modern Supreme Procuratorate, the Dali Temple is equivalent to the modern Supreme Court, the Criminal Department Shangshu and the Left and Right Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate are the two ranks, and the rank of the Dali Temple is only the three products.

King Yu shook his head, "Guo Jin and the others are gone, but after all, the matter involves important ministers in the court, I'm afraid we have to wait for a while, and we will do it as soon as possible when public opinion is surging." Got up and browsed the bookshelves, "Eh, King Yue, why do you only read poetry and songs?" ”

Zhu Qiming sighed faintly, "I haven't been many days away from going to the domain, I don't read poetry and songs, I don't learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, how will I live in the future?" You can't wait to die! ”

"That's not going to work!" King Yu walked quickly in front of Zhu Qiming, "Right now, Daming is worried about internal and external troubles, you can't stop it!" ”

"What if you don't stop? There are a few more years of peace, and if the DPRK and China don't act on their own, I can't intervene. ”

King Yu sat down dejectedly, "It is not enough for the Son of Heaven to have a benevolent heart!" If you don't show great courage, how can you cure Daming's sick body, which is full of holes? ”

Zhu Qiming was shocked, "Please be cautious!" The tone then eased: "The current situation is much better than a few years ago, and the big obstacles are disappearing one by one, so you might as well wait and see what happens." If you don't want to wake up in the temple, you will be woken up by others one day, which is not necessarily a bad thing, and at that time, there will be strange people who will stand out! ”

King Yu was gloomy, "It's a pity that there are still nobles in the court." ”

"If there is no Wang Zhen, I am afraid that the court will become more and more useless! Speaking of which, it is not only to blame Zhonggui, in the face of internal and external troubles, the insight of the important ministers of the court may not be better than that of Zhonggui, so the Son of Heaven naturally has to trust more trustworthy people. ”

The king pondered for a long time, "What can I do?" ”

"Don't get involved! Be a clear person, an outsider, think but not act, this is your best choice at the moment. Zhu Qiming stared at him, as if he had an understanding, "Oh, you are deaf and clear-sighted, but you can secretly check the details of Xining." ”

"Xining ······"

At this time, the voice of Mama Cui sounded outside the door: "His Royal Highness King Yue, Mao Gui and Wang Qing of Xianxi Palace ask to see you." ”

Mao expensive? Wang Qing? Zhu Qiming glanced out of the door in surprise, and then looked at King Yu, "After all, it's a person from Xianxi Palace, and if you bump into it, you can read "Shanglin Fu" here, and then leave by yourself." ”

King Yu turned his head sideways, the corners of his mouth slanted up, and he looked disgusted, "I can't recognize all the words, so I won't read them!" ”

"Then find an interesting book for yourself. By the way, the Empress Dowager can still be a director, you hurry up and get that smoke away, it's too late! ”

The king was entangled for a long time, and finally frowned, "Isn't there still you?" ”

I owe you in my previous life! Zhu Qiming hated itchy, but he didn't want to refute it, "This matter is not difficult, if you mention Yanluo politely in front of the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager will understand." ”

Dropping these words, Zhu Qiming walked out of the study, and saw Mao Gui and Wang Qing standing at the end of the corridor and saluting him, "See His Royal Highness King Yue." ”

"No courtesy, come into the main hall and speak."

The two trotted over and followed Zhu Qiming into the main hall, and their chatters opened their mouths attentively.

"Your Royal Highness, at the beginning of March, I occasionally felt a cold, and I used a few decoctions to no avail, but since I met you in Xianxi Palace that day, I have been cured, and you say that it is not bizarre!"

"Me too, me too. That day, Xiao Xiao's illness was not light, and when he heard His Highness's voice from afar, he was all cured! ”

Ouch, even when I'm sick, I'm rushing together to join in the fun! Zhu Qiming wanted to laugh a little, endured it, and said indifferently: "If you have something to say, you can say it directly." ”

"Yes." Mao Gui reacted quickly and opened his mouth first: "Your Highness, the little one and Wang Qing will be transferred to the celebrant to do things, although the celebrant is a place that the little one dreams of going, but the little one feels unsure, so before leaving, he came to His Highness to ask the good luck." ”

The celebrant? Zhu Qiming was puzzled for a moment, and then laughed heartily. "Good thing! You two are going to the celebrant here, that's a lot of luck! ”
