"Sister-in-law of the emperor, what is the important matter to call the emperor's brother here?" Chongzhen has a smile on his face, his depressed expression can always be relieved here these days, I don't know why, Yi'an Palace has this kind of magical function. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's not a big deal..."The curtain next to the bed still exists, but Zhang Yan is already fully dressed, she doesn't have a hobby of being naked, if Ning Zhiyuan is not there, "The mourning family is just a little worried when they see the atmosphere in this palace becoming more and more tense..."

"I wonder if Your Majesty has found the thief?"

Chongzhen's face collapsed when he heard this, this annoyance could never be changed, he shook his head and forced himself to laugh, "Although it has not been captured for the time being, but under such a close search and arrangement, it must be that gang of thieves who have nothing to hide..."

Chongzhen was suddenly stunned, and suddenly looked up and saw everything that was covered by the curtain, "Why did the imperial sister-in-law say... The anti-thief? Any news? ”

"Isn't it?" Zhang Yan said lightly, thinking in her heart that not to mention how flawed Chongzhen's excuse was, even if it was reasonable, she couldn't deceive her, but she had been with the target person for more than a month, and the last few days were even more intimate, how could she be blinded by this blind talk.

"Could it be that this excuse is really so vulgar..."Chongzhen sighed, but he was not afraid that Zhang Yan would know, "The one who wants to be arrested is indeed the anti-thief Ning Zhiyuan..."

"And His Majesty hasn't caught him yet, and is very unconfident about the ensuing search?" Zhang Yan slowly said this fact in her light words, which made Chongzhen shy, he was originally a face-loving person, let alone in front of Zhang Yan.

"Imperial sister-in-law, I... I can catch him! Chongzhen gritted his teeth and said.

"The mourning family believes in Your Majesty..."Zhang Yan didn't know what she was thinking, and then asked, "So what is Your Majesty going to do next?" ”

"————" Chongzhen's face turned red, and he didn't know how to answer, in fact, he really felt that if he could catch Ning Zhiyuan, he would have caught it a long time ago, and now...

"Have you really searched for it?" Zhang Yan asked again.

"I've searched back and forth four times, and it's still going on for the fifth time..."Chongzhen replied truthfully as a general amnesty, I don't know why, he felt that today's Zhang Yan seemed to be particularly vigorous, faintly aggressive, but he was not disgusted, and even a little happy, because in this way he could have a closer relationship with Zhang Yan.

"After searching so many times, can Your Majesty guarantee that Ning Zhiyuan is not hiding somewhere among the people?" Zhang Yan asked to herself without stopping.

"Lu Aiqing said that Ning Zhiyuan must not be in the people of the capital, this capital has almost been dug three feet into the ground by more than 200,000 people who participated in the search, but it is still not found, so I want to come... It is also unlikely to be in the private sector. Lu Xiangsheng was very sure to tell him, but Chongzhen was not so sure, he felt that maybe Lu Xiangsheng's means were not enough to deal with Ning Zhiyuan.

"200,000 people..."Zhang Yan was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized, this group of courtiers can be regarded as taking the initiative to send their own family members to share the country's worries, but it is a pity that this will not have any effect, "What Lord Lu said is very true, so where does Your Majesty think Ning Zhiyuan may be?" ”

"————" Chongzhen's mouth moved, where else could it be except the palace, but he had already given Lu Xiangsheng the maximum authority in the palace, and the progress had really accelerated a lot, but it was still useless, so Chongzhen even thought that Ning Zhiyuan had really disappeared out of thin air, otherwise it would be unreasonable at all...

"It's the most likely to be at the palace, right?" Zhang Yan said again, in a flat tone, no one knew what kind of fluctuations her heart had.

"But the palace has also been searched twice..."Zhang Yan's question-and-answer sentence made Chongzhen almost think that he was being treated as an idiot, so he had to refute it.

"Twice?" Zhang Yan's cold voice fluctuated a little, and she sighed and said, "Why hasn't anyone searched the mourning family here?" ”

"The thief wouldn't dare to come..."

"Come to think of it, isn't Your Majesty just thinking like this?" Zhang Yan's tone suddenly became excited, "There are so many scruples, even if you search it twenty times, what if you can't find it the first time, you can't find it the second time, and you don't know how to think carefully about it the third time?!" ”

Chongzhen felt a little incredible, and the expression of surprise on his face was deadlocked, the imperial sister-in-law, who had always been wise and generous, was so excited now, could it be... A very bad thought suddenly surged into his heart, which made him a little crazy, "Imperial sister-in-law! Are you..."

Zhang Yan bit her red lip and secretly thought that she was too excited, and her face suddenly turned a little pale when she heard Chongzhen's words, she knew that it was too abnormal just now, and it would be even more abnormal if she interrupted.

"Did the thief come?!" There was some anger in Chongzhen's words that was difficult to contain, if this was the case, it would really be unforgivable!

Zhang Yan finally calmed down and snorted coldly, "Then what does Your Majesty think?" ”

Listening to Zhang Yan's words, there seemed to be no abnormality, Chongzhen breathed a sigh of relief, but he was still full of doubts, "Have you really been here?" ”

“————”

"When the mourning family heard that the land of Nuoda Shanxi had fallen in just three days, did Your Majesty really not feel it?" Zhang Yan was silent for a while but still said these words, and her crisp words were full of amazement.

"Imperial sister-in-law, I..." Suddenly, Chongzhen felt very ashamed, as the Son of Heaven, there was no little woman in the ravine in his heart.

"The mourning family means, it hasn't been found yet, so let's look for it, no matter where it is, if it really can't be found, then what else is there to say?" Zhang Yan was still a little depressed, "It's just that the mourning family wants to know, if he really finds it, then what will His Majesty do with him?" The mourning family wants to kill him, what about Your Majesty? ”

"The imperial sister-in-law actually wants to kill, then..." Chongzhen blurted out the words and quickly stopped, sighing, "Why should the imperial sister-in-law be like this?" I'm not so faint yet..."

"Your Majesty is very wise, he works hard for the Ming Dynasty, and he is also the most diligent and thrifty emperor the mourning family has ever seen..." Zhang Yan seemed to laugh, and her voice was a little desolate, which made Chongzhen outside the curtain stunned again and again, laughing, why did he laugh?

"But... How is Daming now? In this sentence, the desolation in the woman's words is undoubtedly revealed, and this coolness makes Chongzhen's heart chill.

"I...," Chongzhen said, full of frustration, "Did I do something wrong..."

"Your Majesty works hard, and that's right, but perhaps, your direction was wrong at the beginning, and it didn't help later." Zhang Yan's voice was floating, "At the end of three days in Shanxi, what shocked the mourning family was not the loss of the country, does Your Majesty know?" ”

Chongzhen was stunned for a moment and then nodded, even if he knew that he was doing this, Zhang Yan couldn't see it, but at least it showed that he really knew.

"The mourning family is amazed at the strength of the other party, you know, they are just anti-thieves who have only developed in the past few years, and my Daming is a century-old state that all countries have come to court!"

"These thieves..."Chongzhen wanted to say something a little unwillingly, and only sighed faintly after the last four words.

"The mourning family just wants to know, why are they so strong, if it is because of firearms, then why can tens of millions of people gather in Ningxia for hundreds of miles?"

"On the other hand, in the Ming Dynasty, the people have been lost for many years?"

Zhang Yan has never preached to Chongzhen like this, and every time he spoke to the key point in the past, it was just a sentence that His Majesty had taken care of himself, but now it was the words with tears that made Chongzhen panic, he knew that it was really the situation of the Ming Dynasty that was so weak that the imperial sister-in-law was shocked, and he could feel Zhang Yan's worries.

"Imperial sister-in-law..."Chongzhen pondered and spoke, but was interrupted.

"Does Your Majesty know what the most important thing is right now?" Zhang Yan came back from the emotions just now, and still had a faint sadness, if the strength of the Ming Dynasty was prosperous, wouldn't all this have to happen, the worst, the court didn't have to catch Ning Zhiyuan to get out of the predicament, and she didn't have to be so entangled.

"Regain the lost land and reorganize the mountains and rivers!" Chongzhen made a haha cliché.

"Daming hasn't died yet, right?" Zhang Yan said helplessly, Chongzhen was still unwilling to admit this ironclad fact in front of her, "Don't forget the Yi'an Palace of the mourning family when you search tomorrow..."

After such a long time, Zhang Yan finally understood her ultimate goal.

"But the imperial sister-in-law..."

"This matter is not a bother, as long as Daming can be stable and peaceful, it is much more important than this." Zhang Yan sighed faintly, "I hope I can find him like this..."

.........

It was another night, Lu Xiangsheng sat in the imperial study, looking at Chongzhen in front of him obviously a little absent-minded, too, how could the emperor rest assured that the situation had reached this level?

"Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, let's put it aside for the time being, looking for Lord Ning, resisting the enemy is the most important thing..."Lu Xiangsheng waited quietly for Hui Chongzhen and didn't ask him anything, so he spoke in advance.

"Isn't finding Ning Aiqing the most important thing?" Chongzhen squinted his eyes and asked thoughtfully, "Why don't you keep looking?" ”

"The thief said so, is Your Majesty serious?" Lu Xiangsheng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Even if you find Lord Ning, what if you hand it over to the thief in front of the people of the world?" So where is the majesty of His Majesty, and where is the majesty of the court? My great power can't withstand the attack of tens of thousands of people? ”

Chongzhen smiled, secretly thinking about whether he was thinking too much, why the imperial sister-in-law wishfully thought that finding Ning Zhiyuan was the most important, but he did say it in front of everyone, but at that time, for Zhang Yan, what he wanted to say was whether he could find Ning Zhiyuan or not, the relationship was not very big, no matter who came to the capital, he could only fight, yes, face the battle.

Maybe the imperial sister-in-law couldn't figure it out for a while, could it be that Ning Zhiyuan had lived in his bedroom for more than a month, joke, this is really a joke.

"The Queen Mother said to me today that she should be treated the same when the search starts tomorrow, is it possible that she will slow down the pace tomorrow?" Chongzhen rubbed the corners of his eyes, and looked at Lu Xiangsheng with emotion, and there were already a few gray hairs on his head.

"Is there such a thing?" Lu Xiangsheng was stunned for a moment, and then a little pleased, "Although it is unlikely that the Naning officials will hide there, it is finally a knot, Weichen will go tomorrow, and he will go tomorrow, and he will never disturb the Queen Mother..."

"Heart knots?"

"Yes..."Lu Xiangsheng sighed a little, "It's a shame that Wechen hasn't found the whereabouts of Lord Ning after looking for so long, but where he can find it, Wechen has tried his best, there is only one Yi'an Palace, not afraid of the emperor's blame, Wechen is a little dissatisfied in his heart." ”

"What if you haven't found it yet?"

"Then it can only be that Ning Dare will be invisible or he is not in the capital... Wechen is convinced that there is nothing wrong with his search methods..."

"By the way, there is another matter..."Chongzhen suddenly mentioned, "Yang Aiqing said today that the prison is already overcrowded, and several people have died, should some be released?" ”

"If you can let Weichen go, I will already let it go..."Lu Xiangsheng shook his head, "Eight or nine times out of ten have been released, otherwise how can I be locked up in prison, and the rest of these are people who have no identity, and the source is unknown, I am afraid that they are foreign spies..."

"It's all from Ningxia?" Chongzhen has always asked little about these things, which does not mean that he does not care, and now he is especially concerned about everything in Ningxia.

"Ningxia's people and horses have been released..."Lu Xiangsheng said lightly, "Weichen told Your Majesty early in the morning that they are all under the names of various shops, and if the emperor wants to eradicate these forces, he will do it, but Your Majesty, you refused at that time..."

Chongzhen frowned, "How many are there?" ”

"There are more than 10,000 people in Ningxia alone, but there are far more than that..."

This means that Chongzhen understands that they are not only people from Ningxia, and he is a little irritable and says, "Is it too late for me to eradicate them now?" ”

What are you afraid of tearing your face and not tearing your face, do you still care?

"I was already vigilant when I arrested and released them that day, and now I am afraid that they will instigate the people to make trouble, and they have hired a large number of local people as men, but I am afraid that it will be easy to do... So it's not a short thing..."

"Isn't it impossible to do something in a short period of time?" Chongzhen was a little angry and shook his head, "Are they already close to the capital?" ”

"Zuo Liangyu just fought with them and gained the upper hand, I'm afraid it will be sooner or later..."Lu Xiangsheng replied in an orderly manner, "They seem to be still increasing their troops and expanding their troops, and the situation is not good." ”

"Where's Jiang Jiu? Hundreds of thousands of Datong City just let tens of thousands of thieves pass? Chongzhen snorted coldly, "Is there no action to really think that your duty is just to stick to it?" Hundreds of thousands..."

"Hundreds of thousands..."Lu Xiangsheng chewed carefully, "Hundreds of thousands? ”

Chongzhen's eyes widened suddenly, and he was a little angry and couldn't change his anger, where did so many people come from in Datong, and they were not recruited by Ning Zhiyuan when he was the governor of Datong 2, this...

Nothing will happen, right?

"Hold... Your Majesty, the princess is back, and I have something important to report..."

Chongzhen's pupils contracted.

"Biography!"
