Sun Xiaoren's confession provided ironclad evidence that the White Lotus Northern Sect was Wenxiangmen, and after Wanli decided to give Qin Lin a python robe, he quickly agreed on the deployment in the Wuying Palace: the East Factory and Jinyi Wei worked closely together to secretly set up a net, so as to wipe out the White Lotus Northern Sect.

Because Sun Xiaoren knew that Sun Huairen was killed by the White Lotus Beizong back then, he volunteered to help the imperial court and confessed all the internal affairs in the palace - in fact, the power of the White Lotus Northern Sect was not as big as imagined, Sun Xiaoren's undercover agent had more accidental factors, and the rest of the undercover agents only had five people, all of whom were in peripheral institutions such as the Huanyi Bureau and the Mixed Hall Division (in charge of bathing), and the grade was also very low, and they could not access the core secrets of the imperial court.

Feng Bao took this opportunity to carry out a purge operation in the palace, and all the eunuchs and palace maids were checked, just as Sun Hai, Keyong, Sun Dexiu and others instigated Wanli to do wrongdoing, and gradually relied on the emperor's favor and Feng Bao to fight for power and profit.

Even Zhang Cheng and Zhang Whale, the two eunuchs who were second only to Feng Bao, also restrained a lot, lest Feng Bao take the opportunity to commit a crime.

Most of Feng Bao's thoughts are in the palace, and the actions outside are mainly based on Jinyi Wei, assisted by Dongchang, Liu Shou has an overall layout, and Qin Lin is responsible for smashing Huanglong, destroying the lair of the White Lotus Northern Sect, and capturing and killing the middle and high-level figures of its sect.

On the surface, it is Liu Shou who has an overall layout, and Qin Lin is only responsible for fighting his headquarters, but all the bigwigs know that this is just a pretext, to put it bluntly, it is the Xiangtang of the White Lotus Northern Sect distributed all over the country, and the small fish and shrimp are dealt with by Liu Shouyou, and the big people in the headquarters are handed over to Qin Lin.

In the end, Liu Shouyou cast a net on all sides but could only catch a bunch of dried shrimp, while Qin Lin smashed Huanglong but was able to catch the big guy.

But this is also inevitable, who said that Liu Shou's ability to solve the case is not as good as Qin Lin? He can only consider himself unlucky.

After discussing it for a while, the Empress Dowager Li suddenly proposed: "Ladies and gentlemen, although Your Majesty was framed this time, he was drunk and walked at night with a sword, and he made a lot of mistakes, and he must be punished." ”

Ah, the edict of sin? The corners of Wanli's mouth drooped suddenly, for an emperor, the severity of the edict is basically second only to the abdication, and the Empress Dowager Li suddenly mentioned this, Wanli was so depressed that he couldn't do it, and he turned his attention to Zhang Juzheng for help.

There is no way, it is better to criticize a few words by the emperor's first assistant than to give an edict.

Zhang Juzheng stroked his beard and smiled, his eyes flashed, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he obviously didn't mean to help Wanli.

His reform and new policy has reached a critical moment, but Wanli, a disciple, is becoming more and more disobedient, and as he grows older, he also has the intention of recovering power, so some forces in the government and opposition who oppose the new policy set their sights on the young emperor.

Zhang Juzheng wanted to tell the other party in a clear and unmistakable way that he was the emperor and had always been the emperor, and that this court was still controlled by him and his Jiangling Party, and that the new policy must be implemented to the letter

Empress Dowager Li is a strict mother, and she never thought about her son's rebellious mentality, so she just asked softly when she saw this: "Mr. Zhang is busy with official business, is this edict drafted by Xiao Zhang Ge Lao or Shen Ge Lao?" ”

"Don't bother the two masters, let's start writing," Zhang Juzheng looked at Wanli and said with a smile: "After all, if you don't teach the teacher strictly, the old minister also has a great responsibility." ”

Wanli only felt bitter in his mouth, he had a few things recently that he had not done exactly according to Mr. Zhang's intentions, but it is conceivable that this edict is not so easy.

Seeing this, Qin Lin sighed in his heart, the contradiction between Wanli and Zhang Juzheng in the future is probably the seed that was gradually planted from these things, right? Who would have thought that things would go that far?

But the question of whether to issue an edict is not something that he, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, who is in charge of arresting the treacherous and rebellious, and the official in charge of the seal of the Beizhen Fusi, has no choice but to endure it.

Observing carefully, when Zhang Juzheng said goodbye, although Wanli was smiling, the corners of his mouth were almost flat and opened, and Qin Lin immediately recognized that this was a fake smile of neck muscle strength, not a real smile of facial muscle activity......

After all, he is the future father-in-law, thinking of Zhang Juzheng's recital Qin Lin was upset, and returned to Beizhen Fusi to make some arrangements for the killing of the White Lotus Beizong, and it was still too late to calculate the time, he hit the horse and went straight to the Xiangfu in the Shamao Hutong of Zhushikou. …,

Qin Lin is familiar with this prime minister's house, and it is expected that Zhang Juzheng's heart is like iron, and he is not easily persuaded, so Qin Lin went to find Zhang Zixuan first.

Nineteen years old is already an older young woman in the Ming Dynasty, and over twenty is an absolute leftover girl, but this prime minister's daughter is at a good age, how can she not marry at all?

But seeing her picturesque eyebrows, beautiful and beautiful, holding a snow-like Persian cat, lazily sitting in the boudoir reading a book, and occasionally stretching her waist is full of charm, Qin Lin, who was peeping out the window, swallowed his saliva.

Buckle and the window is knocked.

"Leaning on the red and the cui, who is being naughty?" Zhang Zixuan pursed her lips and didn't look back.

Qin Lin forced his throat and pretended to be the matchmaker in the West Chamber: "Miss, it's the lover who is here~~"

Zhang Zixuan threw away the book, and when she looked back, she was already surprised: "Ah, it's Brother Qin, I went to the window of my little sister without making a sound, what do you want?" ”

"Xiaosheng steals incense and steals jade" Qin Lin looked left and right, climbed in through the window, and stepped into the young lady's boudoir.

At this time, Miss Qianjin's boudoir is not something that outsiders can enter, even if Qin Lin and Zhang Zixuan are so familiar, it is the first time to run into her room.

I saw that the room was elegantly furnished everywhere, there were a few plums inserted in the vase, there was a faint fragrance, there was an incense burner on several cases, a copper tripod was antique, the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall were mottled, and the age must be very old.

Look at the bookcase again, a large shelf of books, there is no boudoir women often read the West Chamber, but I see Zizhi Tongjian, Bamboo Book Chronicle, Anti-Sutra, Taibai Yin Sutra, etc., it seems that what the Zhang family has learned is the outer Confucian and internal law.

"Ha, my Miss Zixuan is really a talented girl," Qin Lin pointed to the books and looked at them one by one: "Zizhi Tongjian, Bamboo Book Chronicle, Anti-Sutra, Taibai Yin Sutra, tsk, where are the books that ordinary boudoir women read?" ”

Zhang Zixuan's eyebrows were slightly stunned, and she said coquettishly: "Ordinary boudoir women won't allow you to enter through the window, right?" A lot of words, Brother Qin is really a, a ......"

Bei Ya gently bit his red lips, and his bright eyes swept over him, and he wanted to say the word yin thief, but after all, his daughter's family was shy and couldn't say it.

"No, no, no, the boudoir of an ordinary boudoir woman, General Ben will not go through it at all," Qin Lin smiled evilly, secretly looked at the snow-white and delicate skin under Zhang Zixuan's neck from the neckline, and licked his lips: "If you want to turn over, I will only turn over your window." ”

Zhang Zixuan's face turned crimson, in this regard, the fight will never be able to fight the cheeky Qin Lin, the distance between the two is too close, and the room is too quiet, feeling his hot breathing and faster and faster heartbeat, the daughter of the Prime Minister is also a little more flustered, and quickly pushed him gently, deliberately avoiding the topic: "What, I deceived a python robe today, Brother Qin is here to show off to my little sister?" ”

Qin Lin smiled bitterly and touched his nose: "Am I so shallow?" Gossip is not mentioned, there is really something serious to find Mr. Zhang, please introduce the lady. ”

"You want to see my father, when do you want me to introduce you?" Zhang Zixuan looked at Qin Lin in surprise, and suddenly smiled and said, "Little sister knows, what Brother Qin thinks in his heart." ”

Oh? Qin Lin looked stunned, and said in his heart that he even knows this, you are too strong, you are worthy of being Zhang Juzheng's only daughter.

Zhang Zixuan stretched out her hand and gently touched his cheek: "Brother Qin, my father knows that His Majesty Wanli is cold by nature, originally you rescued him first, and cleared his grievances for him last night, he is naturally very grateful, but if the reward is proposed by his father, His Majesty will definitely have other ideas...... Therefore, my father left the reward for you to His Majesty himself, you know what I mean? ”

Qin Lin couldn't laugh or cry at first, he understood what Zhang Juzheng meant early on, and when he heard Zhang Zixuan mention it, he pretended to wake up from a big dream, his frowning brows slowly stretched, enjoying the gentle touch of the beauty's palm, while she was not paying attention, her head was lightly clicked, and her lips were lightly touched on her ruddy and soft lips.

Ah, Zhang Zixuan, who was attacked by the sneak attack, took a step back, but saw Qin Lin smiling sheepishly, where was the little bit depressed pretended? The prime minister's daughter was clearly deceived again.

Qin Lin laughed: "I have something to find Mr. Zhang, but it's not that I want to be promoted, but about His Majesty's guilty edict."

Guilty of self-inflicted edicts? When Zhang Zixuan heard this, her deep eyes immediately widened: "What, do you want my father to draft it?" Not good, go"

Zhang Zixuan couldn't take care of a lot, and took Qin Lin's hand and hurriedly walked out, along the way, all the slaves and servants of the Prime Minister's Mansion were speechless: Okay, the daughter of our house, just take the hand of the big man and go, although Mr. Zhang Jiangling hates etiquette the most in his life, but he doesn't have to be so deviant, right? A lot of words dare to love Zhang Laoxi, and Zhang Xiaoxie gave birth to another Zhang Xiaoxi?

Familiar with the way, I walked all the way to the outside of the study, and I happened to see You Qi walking out with a bookcase.

"Stop" Zhang Zixuan directly scolded: "It's in the box, but it's a guilty edict drafted for His Majesty?" ”

"It's exactly what my father intended," Zhang Juzheng walked out of the study, he was wearing a crown of loyalty, wearing a swallow suit, wearing a tall body and a majestic appearance, quite a compelling momentum.

"Father" Zhang Zixuan knelt on her knees, "Even if you don't think about yourself, please think more about our Zhang family, the wording of this edict must be extremely harsh, Your Majesty will eventually be in charge of the government in the future, what will he think of our Zhang family at that time?" ”

Zhang Juzheng's expression was extremely serious, and he waved his sleeve robe: "I am not afraid of broken bones, I am innocent in the world, and the word innocence should be rich and strong, which is my father's wish in my life, and ...... And Your Majesty will surely be able to appreciate my painstaking efforts in the future. ”

"Wrong, Mr. Zhang is wrong" Qin Lin suddenly shook his head and ......,
