Zhang Yanling almost fainted when he heard that the housekeeper Zhang Gui was good at advocating leading the servants in the house to go to the West Factory to ask for people. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info These guys who have not achieved enough things and have more than enough failures, isn't this adding to the chaos?

Although the situation was not good, it was far from being irreparable, and Zhang Gui was afraid that the Son of Heaven would hate the two of them to the core.

After thinking about it, Zhang Yanling felt that he should still take the initiative to apologize for his eldest brother and himself.

In this way, it can make the Son of Heaven more comfortable, so that he will not really take the big brother under the knife.

Write as soon as he says it, Zhang Yanling picked up the pen and wrote a letter, and soon wrote a letter asking for sin.

He scanned the contents of the recital and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He never thought that he would one day fall into such an embarrassing situation, this is all thanks to Xie Shen, this person is not ordinary.

"Come on, I want to enter the palace to face the saint."

Things have come to this point, and there is no need to change while contemplating, the sooner you go to the Son of Heaven to admit your mistakes, the more you can get the Son of Heaven's forgiveness.

Zhang Yanling took a sedan chair to the outside of Xihua Gate, and was just about to enter the leopard room when he was stopped by the eunuch on duty.

"Marquis Jianchang, Your Majesty said that he didn't want to see you, so please go back."

Zhang Yanling's face froze, and he was silent for a long time, and forced himself to squeeze out a smile and said, "Father-in-law, can you tell me why Your Majesty is unwilling to see Zhang." ”

"The slave doesn't know."

Zhang Yanling was almost desperate at the moment. The Son of Heaven did not want to see him, and the Son of Heaven also had a great opinion of him.

In fact, this is also very understandable, this kind of thing must have been instructed by someone in the eyes of the Son of Heaven, how could it be the work of a district steward.

Zhang Yanling is really wronged at this point, he really didn't mean to ask people to go to Xichang to ask for people.

But none of this matters, the important thing is that the Son of Heaven does not believe him and thinks that he is the murderer who colluded with Zhang Heling to murder Xie Shen.

In this way, I am afraid that his fate will not be too good.

As long as the eldest brother is convicted, he is estimated to be not far from imprisonment.

Zhang Yanling staggered out of the leopard room, and after a long time, he thought that there was still the queen mother to ask for, so he turned around and went to the palace.

When he came to the Queen Mother's bedroom, Zhang Yanling was sad and told the Queen Mother about the sad situation of his two brothers.

Empress Dowager Zhang listened to it for a long time, frowned, and said: "How many times have the mourning family told your two brothers on weekdays, don't act arbitrarily. Now it's good to make such a big deal and think of the mourning family. ”

She lives in the palace and doesn't know much about outside things.

If it weren't for Zhang Yanling coming to cry, she really didn't know that Zhang Heling had been imprisoned.

"You said that the emperor didn't want to see you, and you were sure that you instructed the domestic slaves to go to the West Factory to rob people?"

Empress Dowager Zhang raised her eyebrows and asked unhappily.

"Old sister, how do I know what Your Majesty thinks, I'm just guessing."

Zhang Yanling now has no owner of the six gods, if it weren't for the Empress Dowager Zhang, the Dinghai God Needle, I'm afraid she would really faint with fright.

"Hmph, why didn't your eldest brother come to the mourning family when he was just taken away?"

"I ......"

Zhang Yanling said depressedly: "This kind of thing is not a last resort, I dare not alarm my sister." ”

"That's it, the face of the mourning family has already been lost by the two of you, and I don't mind losing it again."

Empress Dowager Zhang only felt exhausted, waved her hand and said: "But the mourning family can't guarantee that your brother is okay, if the emperor is really ruthless, you'd better take the initiative to ask for the title to save your life." The incense of the Zhang family can't be cut off. ”

After saying that, Empress Dowager Zhang got up and walked tremblingly towards the outside of the hall.

......

......

The Zhang family is going to be unlucky, this is a hot topic in the government and the opposition.

In the past, the officials who suffered the secret losses of the Zhang family were all overjoyed.

really responds to the old saying, there is reincarnation in the way of heaven, it's not that the time has not come.

Although Empress Dowager Zhang had done her best, this time Emperor Zhengde's mind was very resolute, and he couldn't listen to Empress Dowager Zhang's persuasion at all.

Empress Dowager Zhang's mouth was dry and disheartened, so she left lonely.

Immediately afterwards, the Son of Heaven gave him a cup of poisoned wine, and ordered Gu Dayong to bring it to Shouning Hou, who was detained in Xichang.

After all, this person is the uncle of the Son of Heaven, and it is really undignified for Ming Zhengdian to be tortured in Xishi, so it is better to leave him a whole corpse.

Gu Dayong heard that the Son of Heaven wanted to give death to Ninghou, and he was overjoyed.

He was afraid of long nights and dreams, so he hurriedly took the poisoned wine and went to the West Factory.

When he arrived at the prison where the Marquis of Shouning was held, Gu Dayong led the four eunuchs to the front and cleared his throat and said, "Marquis Shouning, Your Majesty has issued a decree to give you the death penalty. For the sake of you being the royal family, I will give you a pot of poisoned wine and make it up to you. ”

Shou Ninghou looked at Gu Dayong with empty eyes, and only after a long time did he realize that this guy was here to take his life, and he couldn't help but scold: "You traitor bewitched Your Majesty, you can't die well!" ”

"I don't know if our family will die well, but Master Hou must die today. Come on, wait for the Hou Ye on the road. ”

After speaking, the four little eunuchs stepped forward and held down Shou Ninghou.

Gu Dayong poured a glass of poisoned wine and walked up to Shou Ninghou with a smile. At this moment, Zhang Heling's mouth had been broken, and he looked at Gu Dayong who was walking towards him in horror.

"Let's respect the last glass of wine of the marquis, and after drinking this wine, the marquis will go on the road. On Huangquan Road, I thought about how to be a person in front of the bridge. ”

After speaking, he poured the poisonous wine into Zhang Heling's mouth.

Zhang Heling was choked with a violent cough, and Gu Dayong sneered: "Master Hou, don't struggle anymore, the poisonous wine will pierce the intestines and break the abdomen without a cup of tea, and the faster you struggle, the faster you will die." ”

Shou Ninghou knew that he was going to die, and his eyes shot out two fierce lights that only beasts have.

Somehow, he came up with the strength to break free from the suppression of the four little eunuchs and pounced on Gu Dayong.

How did Gu Dayong know that this Shou Ninghou still had the strength to break free, and he couldn't dodge and was knocked down by Zhang Heling.

The two twisted and tore for a while, Zhang Heling bit Gu Da fiercely with his right ear, and he used all his strength for this bite.

"Ahh

Gu Dayong let out a miserable scream, and then saw that his right ear had been bitten off by Zhang Heling.

Blood flowed down Gu Da's right ear wound, and he quickly covered the wound in pain and cursed, "Little cubs."

Still looking at something, don't give it to our family to pull him away. ”

Only then did the four little eunuchs realize that the factory had been attacked, and they rushed up to pull Zhang Heling away.

"Hahaha, hahahaha......"

Zhang Heling laughed insolently, and the blood flowing from the corners of his mouth stained his white shirt red. This bite is worth it!

The effect of this poison was indeed very good, and after a while, Shou Ninghou stopped laughing, his expression became painful, and finally he clutched his stomach and twisted and rolled over.

"You dog, you're going to do evil when you're dying!"

Gu Da gasped with pain and kicked at Shouning Hou.

After kicking more than a dozen times, a little eunuch said: "Factory father, don't kick anymore, Shou Ninghou is already dead." ”

......

......

Gu Dayong stopped and cursed while covering his ears: "What are you doing in a daze, don't go and invite Lang Zhong." ”

The little eunuch realized that the factory father's ear was bitten off by Zhang Heling, and the blood was very terrible at the moment, so he hurriedly pulled out his leg and went to invite Lang Zhong.

When Lang Zhong hurried to arrive with the medicine box, Gu Dayong was already in pain and almost fainted. Although the bandaging had been done in advance, a lot of blood was still shed. At this moment, Gu Dayong's face was no longer bloody, and he was as pale as paper.

Lang Zhong used Gu Dayong to diagnose the pulse and groaned for a while and prescribed a prescription, and what he grabbed was nothing more than ordinary medicinal materials that replenished blood and qi, but it was impossible to take this ear back.

Poor Nagu Dayong lost another treasure after being cleansed since he was a child. This treasure, though not more important than that, is also indispensable. Now two ears have become one, not to mention how ugly it is.

"Get out of the way, our family is going to revenge on Your Majesty!"

Although Zhang Heling, the Marquis of Shouning, has been given to death, Gu Dayong still can't swallow this evil breath. Therefore, he wanted to rush to the Son of Heaven immediately, so that the Son of Heaven could take a good look at how arrogant and domineering the Zhang brothers were, Zhang Heling did not forget to do evil when he died, how good can his younger brother Zhang Yanling, who is the same mother as him?

For Gu Dayong, since he has already torn his face with the Zhang brothers and made trouble to this point, he must not be soft-hearted, he must know that he has done everything to eliminate evil, and if he keeps Zhang Yanling, it will be a big trouble.

When Gu Dayong rushed to the leopard room, Zhu Houzhao was reviewing the recital. Seeing Gu Da wrapping a strip of cloth around his right ear, and the blood stained the white silk cloth red, Zhu Houzhao was shocked.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Emperor, it's really not easy for a slave to come back alive to see the emperor. That Shou Ninghou was given death by the emperor but sprinkled his anger on the slave maid, and the slave maid was really miserable. ”

In this regard, Emperor Zhengde felt guilty. After all, he asked Gu Dayong to be imprisoned, and as a result, Gu Dayong was bitten off one of his ears by Shou Ninghou......

"I'm not afraid of the emperor's jokes, what the slave is most worried about now is that her life is not guaranteed. Marquis Jianchang will definitely count his brother's death on the slave maid. In case the Marquis of Jianchang buys murder, what should the slave and maid do. ”

This is to imply to the Son of Heaven that the Marquis of Jianchang should also be killed.

Zhu Houzhao is not stupid, how can he not hear the meaning of Gu Dayong's words. But he was a little hesitant, if Hou Shou Ning did participate in the assassination of Xie Shen, it was doubtful whether Hou Jianchang participated.

As for the siege of the West Factory by the servants of the Zhang family, it cannot be said that it was instigated by the Marquis of Jianchang.

I'm afraid that the queen mother won't be able to explain it if he kills the Marquis of Jianchang like this, and he can't bear it.

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was hesitant, Gu Dayong was a little anxious.

If he can't take advantage of the situation to get rid of Jianchang Hou now, then he will have to take revenge on himself when he recovers.

"If the emperor is embarrassed, the slave and maid are naturally nothing, but what about the little pavilion elder? Jianchang Hou also hated Xiao Ge Lao to the core. ”

Gu Dayong had to move out of Xie Shen, the Son of Heaven may not value him much, but he must not be without the assistance of the elder of the small pavilion. Faced with the situation of choosing one of the two, the Son of Heaven will definitely choose Xiaoge Lao instead of Jianchang Hou.

But to Gu Da's surprise, the Son of Heaven did not immediately express his position, but waved his hand and said, "Let's discuss this matter again." You should also go back to rest first, and I will grant you five days off to recuperate from your injuries. ”

"The slave obeys."

Gu Dayong was extremely disappointed, but he didn't dare to argue anymore and bowed respectfully and retreated.

......

......

The news that Hou Ning was given to die in Xichang reached the Jianchang Marquis's mansion, and Zhang Yanling was terrified.

The Son of Heaven really gave his own uncle to death, so is it his turn next?

The more Zhang Yanling thought about it, the more shocked she became, and finally fell seriously ill.

The Son of Heaven sent the imperial doctor to diagnose the patient, but Zhang Yanling thought that the Son of Heaven was testing him, and after the imperial doctor left the disease, he hanged himself in his room in grief.

In this regard, Zhu Houzhao obviously did not expect it. He was sad for a while, after all, Zhang Yanling still had some feelings for his uncle.

Within three days, the Marquis of Shouning and the Marquis of Jianchang died one after another, and the ministers shouted long live.

The Zhang brothers are evil masters, and almost all of them have suffered the secret losses of these two brothers. The death of the Zhang brothers this time will be revenge for them. Although it is not a revenge with his own hands, it is the same from the point of view of the result.

And Empress Dowager Zhang fell into great sorrow.

Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling are her most beloved brothers, but the two died one after another because of the emperor's attitude, which made it difficult for her to accept.

She rejected the emperor's morning and dusk and the emperor's plea.

She couldn't forgive the emperor for betraying the Zhang family, and if she had the chance to do it again, she even wanted not to have this child in the first place.

Zhu Houzhao was a little helpless in the face of his mother's decision. But a person cannot be resurrected from death, and he cannot bring his two uncles back to life.

Since then, Zhu Houzhao has not dared to go to the Forbidden City, and the half-monthly court meeting has also been canceled, as if he can feel the anger of the queen mother as soon as he enters the Forbidden City and sits in the main hall.

But the government was not affected too much. This is thanks to the Ming cabinet system, even if the Son of Heaven does not go to court for a long time, government affairs will not be delayed.

Everything is done by the ministers, and the Son of Heaven only needs to express his position on key issues.

But the depression of the Son of Heaven's mind still worried Xie Shen. Originally, the Son of Heaven already had the intention of developing in the direction of Mingjun, but after such a move, he wouldn't return to his original form, right?

His New Deal reform is inseparable from the support of the Son of Heaven.

Any reform is difficult to sustain without the support of the Son of Heaven, Wang Anshi is powerful in changing the law, isn't it? It's not because of the repetition of the attitude of the Divine Sect that he died.

Xie Shen believed that Zhu Houzhao trusted him, but this trust may be weakened by the death of the Zhang brothers.

"Siming, what are you thinking?"

Xie Qian coughed and said in a deep voice.

"Mu Zhaigong, Xie is thinking about how to get His Majesty to focus on state affairs again."

"Well, I'm afraid that this kind of thing will have to be bothered by Siming in the future. The old man has already played to the Son of Heaven and begs for bones. ”

Xie Shen's expression darkened, he knew that Xie Qian was not talking about it this time.

In the past year, Xie Qian's health has not been as good as before, and the time to be on duty in the cabinet has become less and less, and government affairs are basically handled by him and Li Dongyang.

Continuing to keep Xie Qian in the cabinet was a torture for both him and Xie Qian.

It seems that it is time to call the newcomers to the cabinet and participate in politics. After all, the pressure on two people to deal with Quan Daming's performance is really too great.

So who should be called into the cabinet? Although in the end it was the Son of Heaven who made the decision, the candidate must have been suggested by them.

Xie Shen was ready to let Xie Qian exert his residual heat again and recommend a few successors.

"Who does Mu Zhai think is appropriate?"

Xie Qian pondered for a moment and said lightly: "In the Manchu Dynasty, only Shi Zhai has enough qualifications. ”
