Outside Cining Palace, there was a sound of footsteps.

The anxious Wanli looked back, and when he saw that it was the queen who came, he couldn't help frowning, he was just doing his husband's duty to this queen, and he really didn't have any feelings.

The queen did not wear a gorgeous palace dress, but a cotton robe with a raccoon dog fur collar, a relatively simple dress, the pink on her face had traces of being wet with tears, and she knelt down and cried when she walked in: "The queen mother, it is the sons and daughters who cannot fulfill their duties as the lord of the six palaces, causing Your Majesty to drink and have fun and kill by mistake, please punish the queen mother for the crime, don't scold Your Majesty!" ”

When Empress Dowager Li saw her daughter-in-law coming, she finally turned her head and stretched out her hand to help: "The queen is not at fault, how can the mourning family blame you?" Arise, get up quickly, this earth is flowing. ”

"Isn't Your Majesty afraid of the cold when you kneel?" Queen Wang shook her head very stubbornly, and her spirit was firm: "If Your Majesty doesn't get up, your sons won't dare to get up." ”

Empress Dowager Li hesitated, she became more and more satisfied with her daughter-in-law here, but she was unwilling to let go of her son who had caused a big disaster so gently.

Wanli looked at Queen Wang, 1 was moved in his heart, and he did not like this cold and boring queen, but he had to admit that she had completely fulfilled her duties as a wife and a queen at this moment.

Empress Dowager Li was hesitating, and a little eunuch hurriedly came in and reported, "Mr. Zhang, the master of Emperor Yuanfu, is here!" ”

Feng Bao heard that the arrival of Zhang Juzheng, the Yiyin of this world and Huo Guang of the current dynasty, will undoubtedly determine the final fate of Wanli, if the emperor is to be abolished, there is a decree of the Empress Dowager and the unanimous approval of the emperor's first assistant and the celebrant supervisor, and it is completely possible to draft the abdication edict of the Wanli Emperor in this Cining Palace!

King Lu is only twelve years old, compared to the increasingly mature, trying to get rid of the Empress Dowager Li, Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng's containment, since then the arbitrary Wanli, King Lu is even younger, if he ascends the throne, there will be a situation of suspicion of the lord and the country, then the Empress Dowager Li, Emperor Bu and the internal and external ministers will have to further rely on this Feng Daban.

Wanli, when he heard Zhang Juzheng coming, he realized that his fate was about to settle soon, and his body suddenly shook, and he almost fell to the ground~ No matter how hard he worked to learn the art of the emperor, no matter how supreme his status was, he was only an eighteen-year-old young man after all.

Zhang Juzheng had the right to gallop horses in the forbidden, he parked the sedan chair carried by thirty-two people outside the noon gate, rode on the horse and rushed to Cining Palace in the wind and snow.

The god of the emperor's first assistant was serious and calm, he was dressed in a swallow suit, wearing a crown of loyalty, looking solemn and majestic, and under the guidance of the eunuch, he strode into the Cining Palace.

Wanli, who was still kneeling, saw this serious teacher, and thought of his earnest teachings, he was ashamed and frightened in his heart, and even felt a little resentful at the last moment: Why did you come so quickly, do you really want to abolish my throne quickly?

"Long live your majesty, long live, mother, mother!" Zhang Juzheng danced, but the scene made everyone uncomfortable, because Emperor Wanli was kneeling on the ground.

"Give Mr. Zhang a seat" "Empress Dowager Li instructed the palace maid to move the chair, handed over the tea, and then couldn't wait to ask, "On the way here, Mr. Zhang knows everything?" ”

Zhang Juzheng nodded, and the general's dark beard stroked: "Your Majesty does have a ...... in this matter, and ...... wrong."

Finished! Wanli's heart was cold, as if a devil's voice shouted in his heart: Yes, he is your teacher, but he wants to abolish your throne! Emperor, if your younger brother King Lu sits on the throne, he will also be the emperor, but your younger brother is only twelve years old, and the power of the emperor will only be greater!

Resentment is like a poisonous snake, tearing Wanli's heart.

Zhang Juzheng's words changed: "However, the teaching is not strict, the teacher is lazy, since the old minister is His Majesty's teacher, he must be responsible for this matter, please Niangniang to condemn it!" As he spoke, the emperor's first assistant lifted the corner of the swallow's robe, pushed the golden mountain and poured the jade pillar to the ground.

Didn't Mr. Zhang want to depose the throne? Wanli couldn't help but wonder if he got up, according to the younger brother King Lu ascended the throne, he must have listened to Mr. Zhang's words more, or was he just pretentious?

What did Zhang Juzheng think, with Wanli's vision, he still couldn't see through Queen Wang's knees, and at this time he also rushed to take the fault on himself, Feng Bao pretended to be pretty, hoping that Empress Dowager Li would make up her mind quickly and abolish Wanli.

No, the queen mother is extremely disappointed, the first assistant of the civil minister and the foreman of the ministers are here, the righteous and bright abolished emperor!

Just as everyone said that I would say that the big guys were arguing, the sound of horses' hooves outside the Cining Palace sounded, and someone said loudly: "The facts of the case are unknown, Your Majesty Lou Xu is wronged, how can you draw conclusions?" ”,

Who's speaking for me? Wanli's heart was uneasy, and when he looked back, he saw Qin Lin riding a horse, running straight to the bottom of the steps of Cining Palace before taking the reins around, and the snow-stepping black horse neighed and stood up, and then the front hooves fell heavily on the ground, stepping on the snow to scatter in all directions.

Qin Lin tricked Tuǐ into jumping down, quickly and calmly walked into Cining Palace, changing his hippie smiling face in the past, and his expression was extremely solemn.

, "Qin Aiqing is here! Wanli was overjoyed in his heart, and he wanted to tell Qin Lin: They all said that I killed people indiscriminately, but I didn't have any impression at all!

"Qin Lin must have a way to find out the truth" "Empress Dowager Li is also very happy, she can trust Qin Lin, and I believe that this young man will not let herself down.

Zhang Juzheng also secretly thought to himself: "This kid is just right, but the emperor's family affairs, it is very dangerous to mix indiscriminately, Xuan'er will ...... in the future."

Only Feng Bao quietly gestured towards Qin Lin, meaning that he understood the situation and not made his own decisions.

However, everyone wondered, Zhang Hong was sent to summon Qin Lin into the palace, why did Qin Lin come, but Zhang Hong didn't see a shadow?

As everyone knows, Qin Lin's horse is fast, and after listening to the introduction of the case along the way, he doesn't care about the rules of galloping horses in the middle of the ban, so he rode towards Cining Palace on a snow-treading black sui, leaving Zhang Hong far behind.

After hearing the facts of the case, before coming to Cining Palace, Qin Lin had already had some considerations.

According to Zhang Hong, things have to start last night.

Wanli doesn't like Queen Wang, and when she is young, she has a eunuch Zhang Cheng, who is close to the eunuch Zhang Cheng,

Recently, Zhang Cheng and Zhang Whale were admonished by Feng Bao, and gradually did not dare to act recklessly.

Last night, Bie Dexiu, Keyong and Wanli together, 1 Bu Yi with narrow sleeves, swords and knives to play in the palace, only hiding from the Empress Dowager Li.

Everyone drank and enjoyed the song and dance in the Quliu Pavilion in the palace, and Wanli was drunk, and heard a few bad words about Feng Bao behind the back of Bie Dexiu and the guest, and he became angry and said, "I am the emperor, and the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister's marriage and government for two years, why does Feng Daban always manage me?"

Wanli wine was not good and was instigated by the two of them and the guest, so he couldn't take care of it, and rushed to Feng Bao's residence in the palace with a sword, saying that he wanted to kill Feng Bao.

That night, Feng Bao happened to stay in the palace and heard the emperor keep saying that he wanted to kill himself, he was sad and resentful, but after all, it was not good to argue with Wanli face to face, so he ordered someone to move a big stone to block the door of the courtyard, not to let Wanli come in, and prepared to go to the Empress Dowager Li the next morning to complain, and asked the Empress Dowager to clean up this son who was the emperor.

Wanli couldn't enter the door, so he scolded Feng Bao outside the courtyard, and the emperor who ate the closed door was still angry, and led the crowd back to the Quliu Pavilion to drink and listen to songs.

At this time, everyone was already very drunk, and they were holding swords, and the palace maids who were singing and dancing in the Quliu Hall were afraid and didn't dare to run, so they had to continue singing and dancing.

Who knew that Wanli was drunk and didn't talk about morality, and asked the palace maids to perform fresh songs and dances, and the palace maids said that they couldn't perform, and the emperor was furious and took a sword to kill.

The eunuchs also hurriedly persuaded them to be sober, and finally Wanli cut off the hair of the two palace maids like a prank, saying that it was the head of the hair cutting well.

After a while, everyone fell into a deep sleep.

Who knew that when they woke up the next morning, Wanli and the eunuchs were very surprised to find that the two palace maids were lying in a pool of blood, cold all over, and had been dead for a long time, and there was a bloody royal sword thrown next to them!

Wanli was so frightened that he was in a hurry, he knew how strict the queen mother was with himself, and he also knew that it was not good to face the emperor's first assistant, Mr. Zhang, although theoretically the monarch wanted the ministers to die, but there was also a certain limit, the emperor really killed people indiscriminately, such as Xia Wei and Shang Xun, that is, the faint king, the tyrant, the only husband, the thief, everyone has to be punished!

The Ninety-Five Emperor of Wanli, of course, will not lose his life for killing two palace maids, but he will definitely be severely punished by the Empress Dowager Li, and it will not be easy in front of the emperor Zhang Juzheng.

So, the emperor, who knew that he was in trouble, discussed with the people who were close to him, wanting to hide the matter.

Where can I hide it? The Forbidden City was full of Feng Bao's little ears, and when he learned about it in the afternoon, he immediately pretended to be extremely heavy, and went to the Empress Dowager Li to complain.

Empress Dowager Li's reaction was even more serious than Feng Bao had hoped, 1 The Empress Dowager from a family of Bu did not understand too profound truths, but she knew one thing very well: after getting drunk, killing people indiscriminately, that is, faint king, sorry for the ancestors and ancestors! ,

The queen mother loves this son so much that she poured her whole brother's heart and soul into him, so much so that she snubbed her own daughter and almost ignored Zhu Yaoying.

Wanli ascended the throne at the age of ten, and in the six years before the wedding, the Empress Dowager Li went to the emperor's bedroom every day to call him chuáng, personally washed his face for De, sorted out his clothes, and sent him to the court The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, and found that his son may be a faint monarch and tyrant, the pain in the heart of the Empress Dowager Li is simply indescribable, this kind of deep love and responsibility is to the extreme, and it is mentioned that he wants to abolish the throne of Wanli!

However, although Wanli herself did not deny killing people, but what happened last night, Empress Dowager Li still had doubts in her heart, so while punishing her son and sending someone to inform Zhang Juzheng to enter the palace, she also sent Zhang Hong, who was the oldest in the palace and never formed a gang, to summon Qin Lin into the palace.

Judging yīn Commander Broken Yang Qin, can you find out the truth about the Quliu Pavilion overnight?

Qin Lin in Cining Palace, facing the few people who held the highest power in the Ming Dynasty, did not flinch at all, and said proudly: "Queen Mother, forgive the ministers for being outspoken, before the case is clear, Your Majesty is just a suspect, and before the facts are clarified, Niangniang will assert in vain and punish Your Majesty, and Weichen will not dare to agree!" ”

The palace maid and eunuch of Cining Palace were almost scared to death when they heard this, and one palace maid even knocked over the palace lamp by mistake, after all, even His Majesty, Feng Dugong and Mr. Zhang were respectful to Empress Dowager Li.

Only Emperor Wanli was moved to tears, and said in his heart that I was about to be forced to abdicate, Qin Aiqing was still so hard, and he did not hesitate to anger his mother, Qin Aiqing is really the number one loyal minister in the world!

Zhang Hong was still behind, Zhang Cheng and Zhang Whale got off the horse, panting and ran in, just after entering the door, I heard this, don't say Zhang Whale, that is, Zhang Cheng, who has a good relationship with Qin Lin, jumped up together, pointed to his nose and expressed his loyalty to the Queen Mother: "General Qin has committed the crime of disrespect by speaking disrespectfully, why don't you apologize to Niangniang soon?" ”

Qin Lin didn't apologize, staring at the Queen Mother with blazing eyes.

No one expected that Empress Dowager Li didn't even mean to be angry, but thought for a while, nodded and said: "What you said makes a little sense, and the mourning family is indeed too careful." ”

Hey, what are you doing? Feng Bao was so anxious that he stomped his feet, yesterday Wanli said that he was going to kill him, which made Feng Dugong angry, and he was worried that the emperor would not listen to him as he got older, so he wished that Wanli would be abolished as soon as possible and replaced with the twelve-year-old King Lu.

The corners of Qin Lin's mouth twitched, and he secretly scolded the stupid in his heart, you have been by Li Niangniang's side for so long, don't you still understand her thoughts? If the Queen Mother is really completely disappointed in Her Majesty, if she has already made up her mind to abolish the emperor and still has to wait for so long, is it necessary to call me?

In fact, Feng Bao is not stupid, but concerned about chaos, last night the emperor took a sword and said that he was going to kill him, but it really frightened him and made him angry, now there is Li Niangniang and Zhang Xiangye, the emperor is just drunk and crazy, move a big stone to block the door and dodge it, if Li Niangniang is gone in the future, Wanli will poke a sword at him Feng Dugong's heart, can a stone still be blocked at that time?

No matter what Feng Bao thought, Qin Lin said upward, "So Wei Chen thinks that he should first find out the truth about the murder of Quliu Pavilion last night, and then say other things." ”

Feng Bao stood behind Li Niangniang, but the Queen Mother didn't see his god, and said straightly: "The mourning family is looking for General Qin for this matter, you are the hero of Gexiang's rescue, Your Majesty can trust you, I heard that you also have a friendship with Mr. Zhang and Feng Companion, everyone knows that you are judging yīn Broken Yang, and you are aware of everything, and the mourning family wants to hand over the case to you."

Will Qin Lin take over this case, and will he be able to find out the truth?

Wanli looked at Qin Lin with blank eyes, now the only one he can count on is this great loyal minister, don't let me down!

Suddenly, I saw Qin Linshen solemn, his eyes were shining, like Zhuge Liang, who was entrusted by Liu Xianzhu in the White Emperor City, with his left hand crossed his waist, just like Yue Wumu who was the king of Baokang, took a step forward, quite a momentum of thousands of people, his body was as stable as a pine and cypress, and he seemed to face Bao Longtu, who was directly admonished, opened his mouth gently, and spit out four words categorically: "Weichen commands!" ”

All right! Wanli's tears are rolling in his eyes, Qin Lin's image and movements are imposing, he is simply the number one loyal minister throughout the ages!

"That's it, the mourning family won't sleep tonight, just wait for you to find out the facts of the case" "Empress Dowager Li looked at her kneeling son, and hated iron and steel: "Get up, if General Qin didn't say that the case was unclear, the mourning family would have asked you to kneel on the night!" ”,

"Erchen, Erchen" Wanli was speechless, but Queen Wang rubbed his knees for him, so Wanli felt more and more at Queen Wang, and smiled at her very rarely.

Empress Dowager Li instructed Qin Lin to use the jade pendant given to him before to act cheaply in the palace.

Qin Lin took the right to handle the case, so he quit and prepared to start the work of investigating the case overnight.

As soon as he left Cining Palace, Feng Bao caught up from behind and complained in a low voice: "Qin Lin, you have to be reckless again!" There is no need to investigate this matter at all, if、If we can succeed, you will be the new governor of Jinyi! ”

"Duke Feng" Qin Lin shook his head with a smile, "Don't you understand it yet?" The Queen Mother didn't make up her mind to abolish the emperor at all! ”

Where the lights couldn't shine, Feng Bao's face was uncertain: "Even if Li Niangniang is just angry for a while, as long as we use words to squeeze and raise the Queen Mother who wants her son Jackie Chan to be elevated, maybe she can't come to the stage, so she will make a decree to abolish the emperor?" ”

"Mr. Zhang, the first assistant of the emperor's master, will not agree" Qin Lin sighed secretly in his heart, like Feng Bao thought that Wanli obediently knelt in front of the queen mother's knees, which meant that the abolished emperor was as easy and pleasant as eating a bowl of rice?

Not to mention the countermeasures of the civil official group, even if Empress Dowager Li adds Zhang Juzheng, a queen mother and an emperor join forces, take you Feng Dugong, and really abolish the emperor, and the new monarch is a twelve-year-old young man, the situation of the lord and the country is suspicious, there is the White Lotus Sect taking advantage of the situation, and there are shoe targets outside, and there may be some chaos at that time!

Abolishing the emperor, even if it is the abolition of an emperor who has not actually been in power, it is also a huge situation, which is extremely unfavorable to the whole country and Zhang Juzheng's new policy.

Seeing that Feng Bao still wanted to persuade him, Qin Lin suddenly laughed: "Feng Dugong, you said that the new emperor ascended the throne, and this official will take over Liu Shouyou's position, but if I find out that there is no inside story in the case, and His Majesty Wanli does not abdicate today, do you guess how far I will go in the future?" ”

Bunnies, cubs, children! Feng Bao held back four words from his mouth, and his face turned blue with anger.

"Hey, Feng Dugong" Qin Lin stopped Feng Bao, who turned around and left, "I advise you to go back later, or play a full set of tricks, even if it is a cat crying mouse fake compassion, you must try to play it well, to the point where you can take the little golden man, or you can use this to regress in the future." ”

"I don't need your fake kindness!" Feng Bao broke free of Qin Lin, turned around and left, secretly thinking that what Qin Lin said was also reasonable, although the little golden man didn't understand, but he acted well in front of the emperor and the queen mother, no matter whether the emperor abdicated or not, always leave a good impression.

Zhang Hong was old and Lu Yuanzhi was fat, and the two of them rode horses before they rushed over, and when they saw Qin Lin walking out of Cining Palace, they stepped forward together: "How is it?" ”

"Investigate the case!" Qin Lin waved his hand.

Lu Yuanzhi spread his hands, okay, this time it was done well, the investigation of the case has been found on the emperor's head! @。
