Before he had gone to bed, he received the news more than an hour ago, and after that, he stayed in his study.

Even the official clothes for change are ready, and as soon as someone from the palace comes, change into clothes, and set off immediately.

But Zhang Dian never waited for the angel to come to the palace, only waited for the family who arranged to go to the royal street to investigate the news.

"Han San is out of the palace?!"

Zhang Dian stood up suddenly.

An hour.

Han Gang stayed in the palace for an hour and came out like this.

"Privy?" The messenger looked puzzled at Zhang, who had begun to pace in the room.

Zhang Duan waved his hand, "It's okay, you go down first." ”

Han Gang swaggered into the palace, which was tantamount to clearly informing the other Zaifu. This kind of self-distancing makes people unable to complain even if they are dissatisfied.

But what was it that actually allowed Han Gang to enter the palace overnight, and then only stayed for an hour before coming out of the palace?

It should be urgent, but it is not a big deal, and it is ......

A flash of inspiration flashed in Zhang's mind, and he stood still.

It's the Son of Heaven who has changed!

If it is a military matter, he will definitely not be able to jump the two governments, and Han Gang will never do it himself.

And the affairs in the palace, except for the emperor and the queen mother, it is impossible for others to alarm Han Gang.

But if something happens to the Empress Dowager, Han Gang must summon all the ministers, at least Zaifu, who he can trust, in order to fight against the imperial concubine who naturally takes over the inner palace.

If something big happens to the Son of Heaven, it is not surprising that the Queen Mother recruits Han Gang first, but Han Gang will not hide it from other ministers, and it will only be the Son of Heaven who has something to do, most of them are sick, but the illness should not be serious, so Han Gang will ...... after entering the palace

"Privy."

There was another knock on the door of the study.

Zhang Dian turned around, "What's the matter?" ”

"Han Xianggong sent someone."

Zhang Dian raised his eyebrows, Han Gang is still so good at behaving.

"Let him in."

The man who came was only in his early twenties, lean, with a straight back, and stood up with a bow, and his movements were like the wind, and at first glance he was a very neat young man.

Zhang Dian couldn't help but be a little envious of Han Gang. He laid a big scene in Longxi, and gathered many soldiers who left the army under the door. Now that the new generation has grown up, it is the standard Han family's children, and there are thousands of options for him to choose.

There is no more loyal and obedient person than such a person, and neither the servants hired by the people of Tongguò, nor the servants recommended by relatives and friends, can make people trust them wholeheartedly. Zhang Dian also has a big family to support, and Han Gang can have so many available people, it is really a credit for relying on his own hands.

This young man also spoke neatly, "The emperor is sick, and the queen mother is worried, so she invited the prime minister into the palace." ”

"What disease did the Son of Heaven have?" Zhang Dun grasped the key point at once.

"Hidden disease." The young man simply spat out two words.

Zhang Dian blinked his eyes a few times, and he already understood. But when I understood it, I still felt unbelievable in my heart, "The Son of Heaven is only twelve years old." ”

The Han family didn't speak, and stood upright. Zhang was not looking to him for answers, but was simply expressing surprise.

"It's really unexpected." Zhang Dian shook his head and let out a long sigh. Then he asked the young man, "What else did Yukun say?" ”

"The minister said that the Son of Heaven's illness was fueled by the people around him, so the Queen Mother has already decided to send all her people to the northwest, and as for those who have been favored by His Majesty, they will be arranged separately."

Zhang Dian closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then raised his eyes and asked, "No?" ”

The young man said: "Xianggong also said that some people can't wait." ”

Zhang Dian's eyes became sharp all of a sudden, half leaned forward, and asked in a deep voice, "Someone?!" ”

"'Someone.'" The young man nodded, "The villain conveyed the words of the prime minister and the privy council, and he didn't dare to change a word." ”

The look on Zhang Dan's face changed instantly, and then he said to the young man, "Thank you for me, say that Zhang Duan has confessed his feelings, and let your family be relieved." ”

The young man received Zhang's reply, so he took his leave and left, and when Zhangdun sat down again, the door of his study was knocked for the third time tonight, "Privy, Han Xianggong has gone to Su Xianggong's mansion." ”

Is this to personally consult with Su Song?

Between Zai and Fu, it is inconvenient to visit the door at will, but if it is ordered by the Queen Mother, it is another matter.

I'm afraid that the Queen Mother asked Han Gang to inform Su Song, otherwise Han Gang would only send a credible family member to report it as if he were to himself.

Zhang Dian sat on the recliner and patted his thigh with his right hand, very rhythmically.

The word 'someone' is used most brilliantly in Han Gang's passage, and Zhang Dian now knows why the Son of Heaven began to approach women at such a young age. Sure enough, it was 'someone can't wait'.

……………………

On the small table in Su Song's study, there were two cups of tea, and the servants of the Su family who were waiting in the study were all driven out of the hall at this moment.

Su Song was dressed in a Taoist robe, his beard was white, his face was clear, and his body was thin and tall, looking like a man among the gods.

After taking a sip of tea, Su Song asked, "Yukun, what's going on?" ”

Han Gang did not shy away from it, "I was just summoned into the palace by the Queen Mother." ”

“…… Is it the Son of Heaven? Su Song paused for a moment, then asked. He could see the connection at a glance.

"Yes." Han Gang said calmly, "The Son of Heaven was lured by the palace people, injured his body, and almost fainted in the Funing Palace today. Han Gang was not in the outside world, so he was introduced to the palace by the Queen Mother. ”

Su Song laughed when he heard this,

Han Gang said as if he had been summoned to the palace because he was a master of the medical Tao, but in fact, of course, this was not the case.

Among Zaifu, who the Queen Mother trusts more, you don't need to think about it.

However, the news revealed in Han Gang's words made Su Song quickly restrain his smile.

"Yukun, as you said. But the Son of Heaven is close to women? ”

"Exactly, and it was too much, I almost fainted in the Funing Hall today."

"The Son of Heaven is only twelve years old."

"yes."

"It's a shame that they dare to do it." Su Song shook his head.

Han Gang said: "Except for a few palace people who have been fortunate to have the Son of Heaven, the others are all worthy of the army Anxi. What does Brother Zirong think? ”

"What did the palace people who were fortunate do with it?" Su Song asked.

"According to the old practice of Ren Zongshang and Yang Ermei, they will go out of the palace to live and raise, maybe after October, a prince and princess will be born."

Han Gang did everything he could, and Su Song didn't have anything else to say, but as soon as he remembered that Zhao Xu was close to a woman at the age of twelve, he couldn't help but sigh, "This is really ......"

The emperors of the Zhao family all have this problem.

Starting from Zhenzong, Renzong and Xizong were almost all hollowed out by women. Yingzong was strictly controlled by his queen, but that was also because he was not in good health.

Even if there is a queen mother, it is impossible to keep an eye on it all the time, and the courtiers are even outside the palace walls, who can control the emperor?

Not to mention the emperor, the children and grandchildren of Su Song's family, although they don't start meat at the age of eleven or twelve, they don't know the taste of meat when they reach fifteen or sixteen.

After drinking tea with Han Gang in silence for a while, Su Song suddenly spoke again, "Yukun, have you thought about it?" ”

"What?" Han Gang put down the teacup and raised his eyes and asked.

"With this incident, someone will come out to urge the Son of Heaven to get married."

Han Gang was not surprised, and sneered: "Maybe the imperial concubine will mention it." ”

Since the Son of Heaven knows the personnel, then the marriage should be decided as soon as possible, lest the eldest son has not yet been born, and there will be a bunch of princes and princesses in front of him. The princess is fine, if there are one or two princes in front, then there will be trouble in the future—there will always be people who say so.

After the marriage of the Son of Heaven, he can rush the Queen Mother to withdraw the curtain and return to power. Among them, the most urgent is the biological mother of the Son of Heaven, the Zhu family, who was crowned the imperial concubine.

"Yukun ......" Su Song looked outside the door first, approached with some scruples and whispered: "Do you think this matter was done in Yuhua Palace?" ”

Han Gang shook his head with a wry smile, "I can't tell." But if someone deliberately does this, the concubine is the most suspicious. ”

Han Gang also considered whether Concubine Zhu deliberately instigated the Son of Heaven to do this behind her back, forcing the Queen Mother to let the Son of Heaven marry as soon as possible.

The emperor's wedding can be delayed until seventeen or eighteen, if it is early, the thirteenth marriage and the fourteenth marriage are not impossible. The key depends on what the Queen Mother thinks.

If the Queen Mother has no intention of learning from Empress Liu and still controls the government after the emperor's wedding, then it is reasonable to return to politics after the wedding.

"Among the close people of the Son of Heaven, of course, I hope that the Queen Mother will return to power as soon as possible. It is not impossible to force the palace with such ugly things. ”

"But there are some unreasonable things in the back." Su Song had to veto his initial idea again.

"It's true that there are some unreasonable things." Han Gang nodded, agreeing with Su Song's opinion, "If it weren't for this, it would have been determined a long time ago." ”

It's just that there is a sentence that Han Gang hid in his stomach and didn't say, women, the thinking circuit is completely different from that of men, as a man, you should never think about understanding women's thoughts......

A courtier once wrote to Tang Taizong, mentioning that Tang Taizong went to the courtiers, and built a Tang Taizong when he went to the court, pretending to be angry, 'not afraid of thunder, speaking out, he is a righteous person, and being obedient to his will is a servant'. Tang Taizong replied: "I want to make the great faith go to the world. I don't want to discipline customs with deceit, although my words are good, I don't take what I do. ’

And Empress Zhang Xian Liu once said to the Zai Fu that let them report the names of their sons and nephews, and she would give them official positions to reward Zai Fu for their contributions, and when those important ministers put the list on the list one by one, Queen Liu immediately turned her face, but everything on the list is not used.

With the story of Tang Taizong in front, who would do this as an emperor? Empress Liu acted as the emperor, but she thought she had ruined her credibility and turned herself into a cunning woman who loved to deceive among her courtiers. It must be known that Confucius said, 'Light promises must be trusted, and the people will not stand without faith'.

However, it is really not so easy for women to govern and want them to weigh the pros and cons.

"But it's still the emperor's mourning period, and doing so is not good for the reputation of the Son of Heaven." Su Song frowned and said again.

"If you have no fear, what are you afraid of?"

If the Son of Heaven has just made a big mistake, let him abdicate, it's not impossible. But now, the queen mother and the prime minister have put the treasure on Zhao Xu's body, and the murder of his father has been let go, what else can not be let go of the charge of unfilial piety of Emperor Gao? Now, it's impossible to give up on him.

Even if the Queen Mother knew that Concubine Zhu was behind this matter, and the emperor did it on purpose, it was inconvenient to have a seizure, could she still abdicate the emperor?

Su Song wrinkled his eyebrows, there was still a problem with this matter.

Han Gang didn't wait for Su Song, got up and said goodbye, "Yes or no, just see what Concubine Zhu will say." You'll find out in two days. ”

……………………

The next day, after the early dynasty, the important ministers gathered in the Chongzheng Palace.

Except for the Queen Mother, only Qian Yi, the imperial physician of the Son of Heaven, was present.

"Qian Yi, you tell the Zhuqing family about yesterday." There are some things that the Queen Mother can't say in person, so she can only use the mouth of the imperial doctor.

Qian Yi quickly reported the Son of Heaven's illness to all the important ministers in the palace, and when he finished speaking, without waiting for the Zaifu to digest the news, he said to the Queen Mother: "Yesterday, I discussed with Han Xianggong, except for the emperor, everyone else was exiled to the Western Regions, and the palace people who have been close to the official family recently will be raised first to see the situation." ”

They are all people who follow Zhao Xu, of course they have to deal with mistakes if they make mistakes, as for how to deal with it, even if the Queen Mother decides for herself, the ministers will not have any opinions, unless it is too much - for example, as Zhao Xu said before, all of them will be given death.

No matter what the people around Zhao Xu did, as long as he didn't have the intention to kill the Son of Heaven, at least he wouldn't be guilty of death. In response to this kind of inner servant who did not infringe on the power of the court, the attitude of the scholars and doctors has always been very tolerant, but if a big mink like Wang Zhongzheng is bad, there will definitely be no fewer people who fall into the ground. If it is the knowledge of the Imperial City Division, it must be put to death.

The current decision, since it was made jointly by the Queen Mother and Han Gang, is not too much of a decision, and no one will jump out and say anything.

Seeing that no one in the ministers had any objections, he nodded to the Queen Mother with satisfaction, and said to the ministers: "The official family is also old, and this matter can't be stopped, in case there is a happy letter, it will not be easy to do it in the future." Is it possible to choose a queen for the official family, and after the wedding, it can also restrain the people of the official family more than once. ”

Han Gang vaguely exchanged a look with Su Song, and Zhang Dian on the other side also had an expected look.

Su Song took a step forward, "I don't know who mentioned it to His Majesty?" ”

"The Imperial Princess."
