The capital is full of flowers in April, and the beautiful scenery is in front of you.

After Emperor Wanli issued the "Edict of Guilt", Zhang Juzheng, who was physically and mentally exhausted, was finally able to return to his hometown to worry. As soon as Zhang Juzheng left, there was no reason for the confrontation between the monarch and the minister, and the wedding was approaching, even for the sake of the dignity of the court, everyone had to whitewash the peace and create a harmonious and festive atmosphere. As a result, all kinds of bullet seals disappeared, and all the yamen in the capital were thrown into intense busyness. The Son of Heaven is the representative of the country, which is not only a person's wedding, but also a grand ceremony of the country. The Ming Dynasty has not held an emperor's wedding for 50 years, and now that the country is rich, it is natural to hold a grand and decent ceremony to demonstrate the prestige of a great country.

As soon as April began, envoys from more than 30 states including Korea, Ryukyu, Siam, Annam, and Luzon came to congratulate them, and envoys from the Tatar ministries that had been enshrined ten years ago also came. However, when verifying the identity of the envoy, Li Fan Shalang Jinda was shocked to find that the person who came on behalf of the Ordos Department was actually the legendary Zhongshun County Lord. On the stage over the years, the "Three Ladies", which I never get tired of listening to, actually appeared alive in Běijīng City!

Ignoring the series of consequences, Jinda hurriedly went to meet the Chitose Niangniang in person. The famous third lady did not let him kneel outside the door like the county lord of the Han land, but generously invited him into the house to meet him.

When the person entered the house, a strange fragrance like Lan Fei Lan and Mu Fei came over, and Jinda couldn't help but feel a dàng in his heart, and quickly collected his mind and looked up. I saw a tall girl slowly pacing out from the inside. Her braided hair hung down and she was wrapped in a lovely red wrap; On the crown of the deep eaves, the red tassels are tall; Brocade long-sleeved, handover collar is not different; Pleats on both sides, faint white boots. The belt around the waist is knotted with apricot yellow tassels, embellished with a glittering emerald gemstone, a jade bracelet on the wrist, autumn bō flowing, and Roselle is as gorgeous as water! Seeing her peerless beauty, Jinda hurriedly lowered his head so as not to be rude, and couldn't help but think in his heart: 'There is such an outstanding peerless place in the frontier wasteland! It's no wonder that Taoism like Jiangnan can be guaranteed in the late season. ’

Jinda made a long gesture, and the third lady smiled and invited him to sit and watch the tea, and said in a pleasant voice: "The adults must be very busy, and they came over on purpose, Zhong Jin really didn't want to go." ”

Jinda hurriedly said: "The county lord's mother is noble, and the court naturally can't be neglected. After a pause, he smiled and said, "Unexpectedly, it was the county lord's mother who came to watch the ceremony." ”

"Huang Taiji, they didn't dare to come, because they were afraid of being detained by the imperial court." The third lady smiled faintly: "I can't wait to be detained." ”

Jinda, this Khan, said in his heart, this woman is too direct, the feelings are not to congratulate, but to find a husband for thousands of miles......

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here Jinda met the third lady, and Yin Ruohan over there knew the news and asked people to send a letter to the cabinet. Shen Mo opened the note and looked at it, only to see that it read: 'Everyone has arrived in the capital, you still don't let you come to the house and bring me a cup of tea?' It's easy to be laughed at. ’

Shen Mo saw sweat on his forehead at that time, and Zhu Dashou knew that it was written by his younger siblings, so he couldn't help but say: "What's the matter, the grape trellis at home has fallen?" ”

"Elder Zhuge, you have to pay attention to your attitude," Shen Mozheng said, "Have you talked to Shousuke like this?" ”

"Look at you, your heart is empty, isn't it?" This is in the silent Zhilu, there is no third person, so Zhu Dashou does not regard him as the prime minister of the empire at all, and said with a smile: "You have the ability, and your tigress is also so powerful?" "The name of Shen Ge has spread all over the country, just like the love story between him and the third lady.

"You can't say that," Shen Mo sighed, "When I was young, I walked in Mazhangtai, and your brother and sister didn't say anything. How can it be that when you are old, you are jealous again? It's me who doesn't do it well, and it has nothing to do with Madame. ”

"Look what you've been treated for." Zhu Dashou patted Xiōng and said, "Don't worry, if your tigress doesn't allow her to enter the door, Sanwen and I will ...... Well, this kind of thing will not be mixed in the text, but Wen Chang, Wen and the two guys are enough...... Go to your house to crusade against your wife, help you boost your husband, why don't you let the three ladies enter the door! ”

Listening to what he said, the more unpleasant he became, Shen Mo had no choice but to push the note in front of Zhu Dashou and said, "Look at it, what is a rumor as fierce as a tiger, even a close friend like you thinks she can't tolerate people." ”

Zhu Dashou looked at it and twisted his beard and said, "It seems that I am wrong to blame my brother and sister." ”

"That's pretty much it." Said silently.

"But you have to keep an eye on it, I've heard that there are often big fù people who pretend to take the outer room into the house and fix it behind closed doors." Who knew that Zhu Dashou was worried that there was a fraud in it.

"......" Shen Mo was completely speechless, and he glared at Zhu Dashou viciously: "You are very idle, aren't you?" I have a case of Princess Liao here, do you want to deal with it! ”

"It's better to be free!" As soon as he heard these three words, Zhu Dashou said honestly: "I don't have that ability." ”

Finally scared Zhu Dashou away, silently alone in the house, with a wry smile in his heart, what is going on!

Before he could slow down, he received another report, saying that Empress Dowager Li had summoned the lord of Zhongshun into the palace to see this strange woman.

Which one did this woman sing? Shen Mo couldn't help but have a headache. But he really didn't have time to waste, and quickly focused on the case at hand...... This is an old case. In the third year of Longqing, the king of Liao, whose fief was in Jiangling, wanted to use sī to have a son and pretend to be his son as the heir, but the east window incident occurred, and the imperial court sent the imperial history south to Jiangling, and as a result, he found out many illegal things, and finally the Longqing Emperor personally ruled that the king of Liao should have been punished, but he remembered that he was a royal clansman, so he would not die, and he would be abolished as a concubine, and he would be imprisoned by high walls!

A year later, the deposed king of Liao died in the clan prison in Fengyang, because he had no son to succeed...... In order to control the number of clans, the imperial court has very strict restrictions on the household registration of the descendants of these Zhu families, and only the sons born to the four concubines who have been canonized can be counted...... The imperial court did not allow the side branches to change the attack, so they removed the feudal state. The title of 'King of Liao' was cancelled. All the sects of Liaofu were changed to the jurisdiction of the king of Chu. Since then, everything in this family has been called 'Waste Liao'.

In the sensational Zhang Juzheng seizure incident, the long-dormant Liao Mansion suddenly made a difficulty, and the second concubine Wang entrusted the official to sue on behalf of the official, saying that Zhang Juzheng had invaded the abolished Liao Palace, as his own house, and the gold treasures he had hidden were all in the main mansion!

This is appalling!

Fortunately, Jiangling was in a remote area, and the imperial history did not use urgency, so this letter was on the road for nearly a month before it was sent to běijīng. If it had been delivered earlier, it would have been another crime of attacking Zhang Juzheng!

But if you want to completely defeat Zhang Juzheng, it's not too late to receive it now. For this case, or rather, for everything related to Zhang Juzheng, Shen Mo is very clear, he knows that the reason why the King of Liao was abolished, in which Zhang Juzheng played an important role, as for the reason, it is said that it involves the old grievances of the two families, but this is no longer important. The important thing is, how to deal with this case, and not to make a big fuss?

Many people around him think that they should take the opportunity to beat the water dogs, so that Zhang Juzheng will never recover, so as to never suffer in the future. However, Shen Mo doesn't see it that way, he thinks that restoring a deposed clan title and re-condemning Zhang Juzheng, who is already worried, may have unpredictable effects. 'Fuliao' may boost the arrogance of the clan, and chasing and attacking Zhang Juzheng will probably make Shilin frightened! Both of these points are very important, the former is related to national policy, and the latter is related to the atmosphere, and neither can easily set a precedent.

However, after learning about this incident, the heavenly family in the palace actually gave the cabinet a problem. Empress Dowager Li sent the eunuch Sun Desheng to pass on the holy decree: 'This year is a great amnesty, and the cabinet is ordered to draft a decree to restore the Liao Wang, and fill it with a side lineage. For this difficult Empress Dowager, ordinary people can't handle it, so the big ribbons will run away.

In fact, Shen Mo is also very scared to deal with her, basically the head of the palace usually wants this and that, and he can give it. But now, it is even directly ordering the cabinet how to be, which must be pushed back anyway. Moreover, the mother and son of the Heavenly Family want to take this opportunity to show favor to the clan vassal king, and if they can't see the move, they will only be underestimated by the world.

Fortunately, he was too thorough with Empress Dowager Li and knew how not to spoil the current festive atmosphere and dispel this woman's thoughts. After thinking about it thoroughly, he put forward a pen and said: "The Queen Mother's holy virtue is like the sea, and it makes people feel like a chūn wind." However, the matter of recovering Liao is not only a political issue, but also an economic issue. Then he gave the woman an account...... If you 'restore Liao', you will not issue an edict of rehabilitation, you will have to rebuild the palace for him, and in the future, you will have to pay an extra amount of clan expenses, or in a few years, there will be 20,000 or 30,000 more people to eat! We are ministers, but in a few years, we can not think about it so far, but your sons and grandsons will suffer the consequences of the expansion of the clan. It's better to save a little if you can.

Later, after seeing the vote, Empress Dowager Li was really hit in the soft underbelly, she didn't speak, thought about it, and held back a sentence: 'The cabinet is right...... The matter was put on hold, and in the end, the indomitable waste princess was sent away with a royal approval of 'the Wang family is generous and the Hui Mansion is supported'.

As for Zhang Juzheng's lawsuit, silence is an old affair in the past, and it is difficult to distinguish the reason, unless the plaintiff presents conclusive evidence, it will be suppressed and not mentioned again, and everything is important to the wedding. As soon as this matter came out, Shen Ge's reputation for being a high-quality person and not falling into the well was once again recited for Shilin. Of course, this is an afterword, and it is far less striking than his peach sè news.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Returning to Dangrì, Shen Mo was reviewing the recital in the Zhilu while ordering someone to investigate the situation in the palace. After hearing that Empress Dowager Li did not criticize Zhong Jin, but praised her, and then left her for lunch, she let her leave the inner house, and Shen Mo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, immediately afterwards, it was reported that the third lady did not go out of the noon gate, but went straight to the Huiji gate, and was dumbfounded after a moment of silence...... He could think of all kinds of ways to meet, but he couldn't imagine that this female doll could go straight to the cabinet.

But it's not surprising, after all, Zhong Jin has the experience of taking me hostage and breaking through hundreds of miles, what is this kind of direct meeting with the cabinet?

Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, he stood up silently and left the Zhilu. When he came to Wenyuan Pavilion, he saw the tall figure that often appeared in his dreams, and he stood in front of him. At that moment, Shen Mo really felt Chūn's breath, but his expression had not been dominated by emotions for too long, so he just bowed his hand and said, "Meet the county lord." ”

Zhong Jin's eyes were full of tears, and when he heard his not-so-salty and indifferent address, he put away his movements and said with a cold expression: "I've seen the Prime Minister." ”

Went to the hall to watch the tea, and silently invited the county lord to take a seat, of course, this is just a concession of etiquette, in front of the prime minister, even the prince has to accompany the next head. However, Zhong Jin was not polite to him, and sat on the right seat, smiling silently and helplessly, and sat on the side seat that he had not sat in for a long time.

"I don't know why the county lord is coming?" After looking at the tea, Shen Mo asked politely.

The more polite he was, the more uncomfortable Zhong Jin became, and said indignantly: "I haven't seen you for more than ten years, I'll come to see if you're dead, okay?" ”

"Of course you can ......" Shen Mo nodded and asked, "How is your father?" ”

"Father is good." Zhong Jin puffed up and said, "My mother is also very good, and my brother is also very good." ”

"How are the people of the Hetao?" Shen Mo asked again.

"Okay, the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep, and they all live a good life." Zhong Jin's face was full of anger and said: "Ask and ask, don't ask me how I am!" ”

"I heard that Dacheng Taiji was injured in a fall while riding a horse last year and has died, what are you going to do?" Shen Mo asked.

"You ......" Zhong Jin said bitterly: "Although he and I are husband and wife in name, we never let him touch my finger, do you blame me for this?!" ”

At this time, the idlers and others have already avoided it. Shen Mo shook his head and said, "Where do you think of it, I just care about you." ”

"Shameless!" Zhong Jin stood up all of a sudden, walked in front of him, supported the armrest of the Taishi chair with his pink arms, looked at Shen Mo condescendingly, and then sneered: "Hmph, I don't need you to care, I've already thought about it!" I'm going to marry that Huang Taiji! That old guy who married a hundred and eight concubines! It makes you can't sleep when you think about it! ”

Hot tears dripped down and fell on Shen Mo's face, Shen Mo stretched out his hand, gently wiped away her tears, and sighed: "Huang Taiji is old, and I am not young anymore......"

Looking at Shen Mo up close, Jong Kim found that his face did have traces of time. The black hair with memory has been slightly frosted, and the corners of the eyes have climbed into fine lines, and even the most beautiful and moving eyes are no longer bright, and the eyes are full of tiredness......

She suddenly hugged his neck tightly and murmured, "In my heart, you have always been an old man, how can you ever be young? ”
