Academic power is on the top of 10,000 people, and the authoritarian party is fighting for the sky; The wind and clouds change and the heart is cold, and the clear water is difficult to wash out the mud. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Tonight is a long night, and Zhu Youzhen can clearly feel that every second is flying. The time for him to ascend the throne is getting closer and closer, but the biggest hidden danger in this palace is still eyeing from the sidelines, and he is still in danger, so he must be extremely careful. The food sent by Shangshan Supervisor, Zhu Youzhen didn't move, and put it aside as it was, even if he was hungry, he had to endure it, and the success or failure was tonight. I entered the palace alone.,In this palace.,There's no internal response.,Alone.。。

The words were divided into two ends, and the great eunuch Wei Zhongxian ordered the palace gate to be blocked when Ming Xizong was critically ill. Anyone with a heart is aware of it, it is rare that Gonggong Wei wants to seize power? Among them, Wei Zhongxian's cronies, Tian Ergeng thought so. Tian Ergeng is also the grandson of Tian Le, the military department of the Wanli Dynasty, and the ancestor of the Zuo Dudu, born in the family of military generals. Later, he became friendly with Wei Zhongxian and became Wei Zhongxian's cronies, and he was tired of being an official and commanding the Jinyi Guard. That is to say, at this time, Wei Zhongxian not only controlled the East Factory, but also firmly controlled Jinyiwei, and his power was monstrous, and he definitely had the possibility of subverting the imperial power.

On the other hand, Wei Zhongxian's side is also discussing with the Hakka clan at this moment how to deal with Emperor Chongzhen, who is about to ascend the throne. The gorgeous palace lamp makes the whole inner room in the light, which is beautiful. Hakka's delicate face and amorous eyes circulated on Wei Zhongxian's body. But everyone knows that such a beautiful lady has a heart like a snake and scorpion.

The beauty, the eunuch and the gorgeous palace make the originally extremely discordant picture become like a dream. Wei Zhongxian really wanted to indulge in this gentle township, but Wei Zhongxian was not confused, on the contrary, he was extremely sober.

Wei Zhongxian understood that his power was tilted towards the government and the opposition, and he could be under one person and above tens of thousands of people, all relying on the favor of Ming Xizong. The forces that he relies on and controls are like the moon in the water, seemingly clearly visible and shining brightly. But in fact, the slightest external force will fall apart. A seemingly unbreakable force can dissipate into invisibility in an instant. Because those who are united solely by interests are equally likely to betray themselves because of interests.

Now that Ming Xizong has passed away, Wei Zhongxian knows that he has no friendship with Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, and after Zhu Youzhen ascends the throne, whether he can still enjoy the glory like now, everything is unknown; This kind of unknown is the most terrifying, like a boundless black hole, which may swallow itself at any time.

Just now, the Hakka family put forward a plan, and made some moves in the food given to Zhu Youzhen, if Zhu Youzhen died of poisoning, he could declare to the outside world that Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, died violently, and then among the princes of Cong, choose a small prince to be the emperor, and Wei Zhongxian formed a coercive son of heaven to order the princes. In this way, if it happens, the world will have to change its surname to Wei.

Wei Zhongxian vetoed it, although he looked down on the descendants of the Zhu family from his heart, he was also desperate to climb to the peak of power. But he understands that he has always been a eunuch, and no matter what, he will not be able to reach the pinnacle of supreme power. The winning artifact can only be the flower in the mirror and the moon in the water.

Wei Zhongxian sighed, it was time to contact this King of Letters. In any case, nothing can come of it here. Instead of thinking about it here, it is better to probe the wind, maybe the situation is not as bad as you think.

"Come on, prepare a sedan chair, go to Qianqing Palace!" Wei Zhongxian said to the young eunuch beside him.

The little eunuch was ordered to leave quickly, but in just a moment, an extremely luxurious sedan chair carried Wei Zhongxian to the Qianqing Palace.

It is said that Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen is immersed in thinking, he knows that Wei Zhongxian will definitely come tonight, he is waiting, waiting for this moment to come.

Wei Zhongxian's autocratic power was due to the delegation of power by Zhu Youxiao of Ming Xizong. Now, how to deal with Wei Zhongxian is directly related to the direction of the future Ming Empire. The eunuch party and the Donglin party represented by Wei Zhongxian are the two major forces of the Ming Dynasty, and one cannot be allowed to dominate, otherwise, the imperial power will be affected. Therefore, the eunuchs must be eliminated, and they must be eliminated, but it is by no means a simple killing. It was easy to kill Wei Zhongxian, although Wei Zhongxian leaned towards the government and the opposition, but he did not have a monopoly and had not been able to fully control the emperor's power, and there was constant opposition between the government and the opposition.

In the final analysis, Wei Zhongxian has always been a eunuch, and all he can rely on is the emperor. Leaving the palace, he is nothing. Therefore, thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen understood that Wei Zhongxian could only be used for his own use, not killed, but he must be made to obey himself, his power must be limited, and a compromise must be achieved.

In a moment, Wei Zhongxian had already arrived at the gate of the Qianqing Palace. As soon as the sedan chair fell, the little eunuch at the gate of the Qianqing Palace was just about to report, Wei Zhongxian waved his right hand, signaling that there was no need to report, and the little eunuch immediately stood aside again. At this moment, Wei Zhongxian is an absolute authority in the imperial palace of the Ming Dynasty.

Wei Zhongxian didn't let the eunuch report it, in fact, he just wanted to take a closer look at this king of letters, whether the future emperor could coexist peacefully with him.

The door of the Qianqing Palace was always open, and Wei Zhongxian quietly entered the main hall.

At this moment, Wei Zhongxian was nervous in his heart, which was an unpredictable fear of the future. Wei Zhongxian, who is accustomed to seeing life and death, realizes the preciousness of life even more. He knew very well that without this necklace head, all the glory and wealth would be just a passing cloud.

A breeze drifted into the hall, and the white silk fluttered with the wind again. Wei Zhongxian saw that Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, was facing the body of Zhu Youxiao of Ming Xizong, motionless, as if he was thinking about something. At this moment, time seemed to have stood still, Wei Zhongxian looked at Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, and Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, looked at the body of Zhu Youxiao of Mingxi Sect.

I don't know who broke this tranquility, King Zhu Youzhen turned his head and saw an old eunuch staring at him, according to his memory, he understood that this was Wei Zhongxian, the great eunuch of the Ming Dynasty, the first opponent he had to face.

Yes, an adversary, not an enemy.

Xinwang Zhu Youzhen learned from the history books of later generations that the fall of the Ming Dynasty could not be blamed on Wei Zhongxian, but precisely in the Donglin Party, which was reused and relied on by Chongzhen. Wei Zhongxian's biggest problem is not to bring disaster to the country and the people, but to weave party henchmen and threaten the imperial power. Therefore, Wei Zhongxian can be used or killed. Killing a Wei Zhongxian, in exchange for an unrealistic reputation, is not something that should be done now, it can be unstained when it comes out of the mud, but there are a few people in the world who can do it.

In the world of the Ming Dynasty, there are too many problems, and there are no fish when the water is clear, as long as the people who can use it, they must be bold to use it. Thinking of this, Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, was extremely firm in his heart.

Xinwang Zhu Youzhen smiled at the corner of his mouth, and took the initiative to speak to Wei Zhongxian: "Father-in-law Wei, it's late at night, you haven't rested earlier, come over, you have a heart." ”

"Believe in the king, it is too famous, this is the duty of the old slave. It's just that King Xin, you're tired..."Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but choke up a little as he spoke, as if he was moved or sad, which even he didn't know.

"Gonggong Wei, there is no need to say this, your loyalty to the emperor, I know in my heart that the future Ming still needs to rely on you. This king knows that you grew up watching the emperor since you were a child, and you have a deep relationship with the emperor, but you still hope that Gonggong Wei will take care of his health. "Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, knew very well in his heart that the tears shed by Wei Zhongxian in front of him were just acting. Since you want to act, this king will accompany you to play a good show.

"King Xin, do you still know the minion..."Wei Zhongxian was not choked up this time, but was about to cry. The sobbing lasted for a while before it gradually stopped. Wei Zhongxian was really sad this time, thinking that he had reached the pinnacle of power over the years, and he had influenced the regime of the entire Ming Dynasty, he was greedy for power, but it was only limited to those Donglin Party members who were against him and some self-proclaimed officials who only knew that they had misled the country and the people, but in terms of right and wrong, he Wei Zhongxian was worthy of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, looked at the old eunuch in front of him who was constantly sobbing, the great eunuch who was scolded by later generations as misleading the country and the people, and the leader of the eunuch party, at this moment, he was so sad, it didn't seem to be a fraud at all. If he was choked up before, Wei Zhongxian still had some feeling of acting, but now it made Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, feel a little pretentious, and what he felt now was an old man who was dying and old, saddening his life. Therefore, he did not dissuade Wei Zhongxian, he had enough patience. He understands even more that as long as Wei Zhongxian uses it well, it is definitely a sharp blade that can pierce anyone's chest at any time, but if it is not used well, it will become a **, and he will definitely reap the consequences.

Time passed minute by minute, and Wei Zhongxian gradually stopped sobbing, and he himself didn't understand how he could be so sentimental today. Over the years, I have experienced countless dangers, but I have never lost my temper as much as I do today. It is also to get relief from the previous fear, or the king in front of him treats him like this, or he doesn't understand.

Wei Zhongxian gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, folded his two hands, hugged his hands in front of his chest, bowed deeply forward, and said to King Xin with a little shame: "The old slave has lost his temper, and I hope that the prince will forgive him." ”

"Grandpa Wei, please get up quickly, it's serious." Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, hurriedly stepped forward to grab Wei Zhongxian and did not let him bow down completely. This is actually a kind of etiquette, people respect me a foot, I respect people, if you really want to let it worship completely, it is rude to believe in the king.

"Father-in-law Wei is also a man of temperament, this king understands, understands." Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, patted Wei Zhongxian's arm lightly as he spoke.

Things have developed like this, and Wei Zhongxian was also unexpected. The letter king Zhu Youzhen in his impression essentially looked down on eunuchs like himself, and he had always been very close to the Donglin party. However, what was happening in front of him did not seem to be like that, and he felt that King Shin, who was standing in front of him, was not a royal child who did not understand the world, but on the contrary, he was very shrewd and had a very transparent view of current affairs. I have been able to get to this point by virtue of my eunuch status, relying on my own intuition, relying on this intuition and the ability to observe words and colors, so that I can stand out and come to this day step by step.

Wei Zhongxian felt that he didn't guess me about Zhu Youzhen's mind now, such a sense of powerlessness has never been felt over the years, even in the most difficult time, he didn't feel like this.
