Since the queen mother's return, Wanli's face has been gloomy, which makes the hearts of the servants around him feel a little worried, for fear that he will anger Long Yan when he speaks and does things, and he will suffer at that time. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoRecently, as he gets older, the prestige of the little emperor is increasing at least in the eyes of these chamberlains, and if he forces himself to sing again today, I am afraid that no one will disobey.

However, the few chamberlains who followed him to ask the Queen Mother for peace did not feel a little strange in their hearts, obviously they had eliminated their prejudices with the Queen Mother just now, and when they finally said goodbye, the emperor also looked respectful, why did he change his appearance when he came back this time?

Maybe only Feng Bao is the one who knows the reason, looking at the gloomy fat face of the little emperor, he has a great sense of relief, if this is up to him to tell the emperor, I am afraid that not only will it be difficult to complete it successfully, but also will inevitably be reprimanded. Fortunately, I was self-aware and found the queen to talk about it.

Just as the attendants were carefully serving, Wanli watched a lot of notes, and then waved his hand at them a little impatiently: "You all go out for a while." ”

Although he didn't understand what the emperor meant by doing this, since he had spoken, everyone naturally didn't dare to disobey, and hurriedly walked out of the hall after kowtowing to him. At this time, the little emperor said to them again: "Sun Hai, you stay for a while." ”

Under the envious and jealous gazes of many of the attendants, Sun Hai felt a little surprised to stay. If it was an ordinary time, he would naturally be happy to stay alone with the emperor, which was a rare opportunity to get close to the emperor and shoot horses. It's just that today, the little emperor's expression is different, and he is still a little angry, and it may be a blessing or a curse to let himself stay at this time.

Fortunately, at this time, the Wanli City Mansion was not so deep, and it didn't make Sun Hai guess for long, so he said directly: "Sun Hai, did you ever say that you knew about the matter I mentioned to you before?" ”

"What did Your Majesty mention to the slave?" Sun Hai was stunned at first, and then thought that it was the emperor who said to him that he wanted to send a sum of silver to the slaves and maids in the palace for the New Year, so he quickly shook his head and said: "The slave and maid dare not spread the words of Your Majesty at will, and the slave and maid are ...... no matter how bold they are."

However, Wanli trusted him quite a lot, and when he said this, he nodded and said, "I also know that it will not be the queen mother who leaked the news to you, a slave." He frowned again.

"Your Majesty, what the hell is going wrong with this? Why are you worried about your slaves? Seeing that the emperor did not suspect him, Sun Hai became a little bolder, and hurriedly asked tentatively.

Wanli couldn't help but sneer: "I'm not afraid to make you laugh, just now at the Queen Mother's place, she has already dissuaded me from asking the treasury for silver to give you silver." ”

"Huh? Why? Sun Hai said in surprise.

"It's not because of those great truths that have been said many times before, what public and private should be clear, and what is difficult to ...... from luxury to frugality," Wanli said casually with some impatience. After a pause, he muttered again: "Then things are a little strange, how can the queen mother who lives in the harem know about this?" Who told her about this, and asked her to persuade me to dispel this idea? ”

Sun Hai, who had been serving in front of the little emperor for a long time, could of course see that he was talking to himself, so he didn't answer. But his mind was also racing quickly, and he wanted to find out the guy who had broken the good thing.

"In this way, you can help me to check if any foreign ministers' family members have come to the palace to ask the Queen Mother for peace in the past few days. Also, the Queen Mother has recently been in contact with people who are not in her palace, and I will find out. "I feel that the little emperor who was stabbed in the back is very unacceptable to such an ending.

"Yes, the slave must do her best to investigate and help the master find out what happened." Sun Hai hurriedly kowtowed and agreed. For this task, he was still quite excited in his heart, and the emperor handed over this matter to himself, instead of Feng Bao to investigate, which showed that he trusted himself more.

It was with this kind of thought in mind that Sun Haicha was even more attentive to this matter, and in less than two days, he reported the situation to Wanli alone: "Your Majesty, the slave maid has carefully investigated, and in the past half a month, the Queen Mother has not had any foreign ministers and family members to ask for peace." As for the people who are not from Cining Palace, there are quite a few who have been there, and Gonggong Feng is also among them. ”

"Feng Bao? What did he do when he ran to see the Queen Mother? Hearing this, the little emperor's face suddenly sank, because this incident easily reminded him of the scene two years ago. At that time, it was also this Feng Bao who went to sue the Queen Mother, which caused such a serious turmoil, and it can even be said that Feng Bao was the initiator of that incident.

"This ...... The slave and the maid are unknown. According to the people on the Queen Mother's side, when Feng Bao saw the Queen Mother, he also withdrew from the left and right people, and said that he had to have a meal before he withdrew from the Queen Mother. As Sun Hai spoke, he cautiously observed the emperor's expression.

For Feng Bao, a companion who has been pressing on his head and making him have no chance to get ahead, Sun Hai is of course deeply hostile. It's just that he has always been very good at concealing it, and he is also very good at controlling his mind, so not many people around him are aware of this. In front of the emperor, this is the first time he has said that Feng Bao is not. Because he had clearly felt that the emperor had taken this matter very seriously, if he could really convince the emperor that this was Feng Bao's doing, it would be enough for the other party to drink a pot.

Sure enough, after listening to his story, Wanli's face became a little more gloomy, and his teeth clenched together: "Is he doing my good thing again?" Why does he always do these things? Could it be that ...... said, "Could it be that Feng Bao has faintly seen his true purpose in doing this?" This made the emperor really shocked and angry, and a little weak.

Sun Hai, who already knew a lot about Wanli's temperament, knew that this was an opportunity to completely push Feng Bao to the opposite side of the emperor, so even if it might have the opposite effect, he couldn't control it, so he kowtowed again and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, after finding out that Feng Bao went to see the Queen Mother according to your wishes, the slave maid also checked Feng Bao's whereabouts before and after by the way. ”

"Oh? Where has he been? Wanli didn't care about Sun Hai's behavior of cutting first and then playing, and asked anxiously.

Although he also traveled to many places during this period, he went to the cabinet before and after. I heard that I talked to Zhang Ge for a while. Sun Hai finally carefully handed out the final killing move.

And after hearing this, Wanli naturally immediately figured out everything. It must be that Zhang Juzheng didn't want to follow his will and take out the silver, so he asked Feng Bao to talk about it. And Feng Bao also knew that doing so would provoke his own Long Yan's anger, so he found the Queen Mother to help. In the end, even because of the queen mother's appearance, the idea that the emperor, wanted to take some silver from the treasury and reward the people in the palace could not be realized.

"What a dog, he actually hit all the abacus on my head, it's really hateful!" Wanli was furious in his heart, and slammed a cup in his hand on the ground, which frightened Sun Hai, who was kneeling in front of him, tremble, and was almost scalded by the tea spilled from the cup.

"Your Majesty is angry, it's the slave's fault, the slave shouldn't do this......" Sun Hai was very smart and quickly kowtowed and persuaded.

After gasping for a few breaths, the little emperor waved his hand: "Get up, you have done a good job in this matter, it is Feng Bao's dog talent who is upset!" This time he was really angry, and it was rare that he didn't call Feng Bao his companion by his name.

However, at this time, Sun Hai did not speak very interestingly, and continued to give Feng Bao eye medicine. Because he knows how to measure things very well, some things have been done, but they will give people a feeling of deliberateness. Moderation is the detail that should be paid attention to when doing big things.

After seeing that the emperor calmed down a little bit of anger, he reassured: "Your Majesty, in fact, Feng Bao is also out of loyalty to the imperial court, and he feels that this is not in accordance with the rules, so he ......."

His words were interrupted by the little emperor's somewhat unhappy eyes: "Hmph, you think of him too noblely, what kind of person is he, I don't know better than you?" If he was so selfless, I wouldn't be so angry. ”

"Huh?" Sun Hai looked at the emperor in some surprise, but he was very happy in his heart, he couldn't imagine that the emperor's suspicion of Feng Bao had reached such a point.

"He has always shown himself as a duke and selfless, and sometimes he would rather offend me than speak for those officials, others say that he is a rare good eunuch, but he can't hide it from me. He is clearly taking advantage of my feelings and trust in him to buy people's hearts! Wanli said and snorted heavily: "But he did get a lot of benefits from doing this, in the imperial court, in the people have won an excellent reputation, presumably in the future history, his reputation as a power eunuch will be better than any eunuch in the past." But he didn't want to think that he had all this under the premise of betraying me......"

"You may not know that if I want to reward everyone in the palace this time, I want to weaken his Feng Bao's power from the root." Speaking of which, Wanli didn't hide his thoughts anymore, anyway, things couldn't be done, so he said it to be happy: "And now, all this is for Feng Bao to take to invite people to buy people's hearts, do you say I can't be angry?" ”

I see. Only then did Sun Hai understand everything, and he also felt a little sad for the emperor, in order to deal with Feng Bao, he could only take this step, and he still failed to succeed. Thinking of this, tears were already rolling in his eyes: "It is the incompetence of the slaves and maids that makes your majesty so embarrassed...... In fact, Your Majesty, you may still have room to redeem this......"

"What do you mean by that?" The little emperor was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly asked.

"Isn't Yang Zhen and Yang Zhenfu fighting with Feng Bao? If you really want to take this breath, maybe it's a good choice to ask Yang Zhen to stroke his hand......"
