Chapter 4: Zhang Yan's thoughts

Yue Su's words made Mrs. Taikang's mother and son speechless, and it took a long time before Mrs. Taikang gritted his teeth and said, "You should make way for the first emperor." ”

"Madame really understands the reason, the previous Uncle Tie Qiu made way, in fact, it is also a matter of course, and there is a quarrel and a little disrespect in the middle, which is also caused by opening the way for the first emperor. Madam, are you right? Yue Su said in a deep voice.

"Greatly." Mrs. Taikang now hated the root of her teeth so much, but Yue Su put out three copper slips, and everything was in the name of the first emperor, so she didn't dare to argue.

"Tie Qiu just said that he was also humble for the recklessness just now, as for the matter of Uncle Guo blocking the first emperor, is it not guilty if you don't know, I'll just forget it. What does Madame think? Yue Su's face smiled.

"Just do as the adults do." Mrs. Taikang can only admit it.

"Then, please also ask Mrs. and Uncle Guo to give an order to make way for the first emperor and let us escort the passage." Yue Su said with a smile.

"Okay."

Relying on Yue Su's far-fetched and past prestige, the Zhang family finally temporarily succumbed, and after Mrs. Taikang got up from the ground, she ordered to get out of the way and let Yue Su's men and horses pass. After Yue Su's infantry team passed, their mother and son told Zhang Guoji, who was full of suspicion, and almost didn't make Zhang Guoji angry, and the family of three made up their minds to wait for them to enter the capital, and they had to sue Yue Su fiercely.

Within two days, when they were about to arrive in Beijing, they received a message, that is, the news of Yue Su's return to his hometown for the funeral of his father (mother). Hearing this, the Zhang family was even more angry, you Yue Su was already the one who was sent home, and you still dared to be so arrogant, you waited for me.

After Yue Su left, he was naturally not idle, and immediately drafted a letter of recital, writing down what happened today according to his favorable purpose. Its content is like this, the minister ordered the father (mother) to return to the hometown, carrying the relics of the first emperor three bronze guillotines, all the way, where they passed, regardless of civil and military, should give way. Passing through Hejian Mansion, I met Mrs. Taikang and Uncle Guo entering Beijing, and the next person opened the road in front, but Uncle Guo refused to give way, and the minister had to come forward to dispatch. If you change to the past, it is reasonable for the minister to give way to his wife and uncle, how can the relics of the first emperor be on the side, and the relics of the first emperor must not be allowed to give way, but the lady and the uncle do not forgive, and the minister has no choice but to show the relics of the first emperor and ask the lady and the uncle to make way. I don't know if I should do it or not, and I ask the emperor to make a judgment.

Yue Su's twist and turn was to let Jin Cicada send it to Beijing quickly, and it took only one day to send it to Beijing, and it was passed into the cabinet through Yang Yishan and handed over to the celebrant supervisor. As soon as the palm print eunuch Zou Yi arrived at the fold, he immediately guessed the general situation, and knew that the matter was very important, so he hurriedly handed the fold to the Empress Dowager Zhang.

Zhang Yan folded it, put it aside casually, and said, "The more official Yue Su is, the more bold he is." It's just such a big thing, and I also wrote an excerpt to report to the mourning family. The relics of the former emperor are not allowed to make way for anyone, and it is also reasonable, you can approve it on behalf of the emperor, and you will know. ”

"The old slave admires Lord Yue's previous resoluteness, but his courage now is indeed not as good as before." Zou Yi said deliberately, and then said: "The old slave obeys the order, so I will go and give Master Yue a reply." ”

Zou Yi is scheming, and his words often seem to be unintentional, but people who listen to them can think about it. Sure enough, this time was no exception, after Zhang Yan heard it, she quickly guessed why Yue Su folded, isn't this just afraid of her.

Zhang Yan smiled slightly, and after Zou Yi went down, he muttered to himself: "He Yue Su also looks down on the mourning family too much, and the mourning family's strength is not so good." In the past, I had a holiday with my brother three times and twice, and I didn't help my relatives. All I care about is my son's country, as for the rest, as long as you Yue Su is for the country and takes care of things, I won't be embarrassed for you. Let's rest at home for three years, and after three years, the mourning family will still use you. ”

Two days later, Zhang Guoji's family entered the capital, handed a sign to meet the queen mother, Zhang Yan immediately passed on, after the meeting, the old lady rarely had to cry Yue Su's lawlessness, relying on the three swords of the imperial guillotine given by the emperor to be arrogant. and also told the story of the incident in a more vindicular way.

After Zhang Yan heard this, she also felt that Yue Su was a little arrogant, especially at the end, Yue Su showed three copper guillotines to scare people. But then thinking about it, Yue Su also gave her the matter of showing the guillotine, and it seemed that there was no sin except for being arrogant. Now that the reply to Yue Su has been given, he has no words and no faith, and then blames him again, thinks about it, and says: "Father, mother, brother, this matter, Yue Su has already folded with me." Forget it this time, he turned out to be a minister appointed by the first emperor. ”

That's it! When the old lady heard this, how could she promise, and hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, it has nothing to do with your father and brother if I suffer some losses, but when he does this, he really doesn't take you seriously." In the past, the first emperor doted on him, he bullied your brother three times and twice, let's endure it, but now it is your son who is sitting on the dragon chair, our grandson, and he dares to bully our family like this, is this simply lawless? How did you swallow this breath, your father and your brother and I really hurt you in vain. ”

"Mother......" Zhang Yan said earnestly: "Yue Su is a minister who entrusts orphans, and let his father make way for you that day, also because he has the relics of the first emperor by his side, how can the relics of the first emperor make way for others." He is also reasonable in this matter, and he really can't deal with it. ”

"That's right, but those three copper guillotines shouldn't be given to him. What kind of dragon head can kill the emperor's relatives, phoenix sons and dragon grandchildren, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, I have never heard of such a tool. If he can give the emperor's relatives and phoenix sons and grandsons, then what else does the Zongren Mansion do, wouldn't he even rob the emperor's power. Daughter, this tool must not be in his body, what if one day, he relies on this tool and is angry with you and the emperor? When the time comes, welcome the foreign vassal into the court, and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the world, who can still govern him. When Mrs. Taikang saw that it was impossible to cry, she changed to instigate.

Zhang Yan's most taboo thing now is this, her son has not been on the throne for a long time, she is young, and her orphan and widow really don't have much strength. On the contrary, Yue Su, after all these years of operation, has a deep-rooted strength, once he relies on the initiative of the dragon leader to come and give her to the throne, there is no need to welcome foreign vassals into the court, and he can coerce the young lord to order the world and achieve Cao Mengde.

But jealousy is jealousy, but before her husband died, he had made a decree that three copper priests would be given to Yue Su, and future generations would not be allowed to take it back during Yue Su's lifetime, otherwise it would be regarded as unfilial piety. How can he let his son carry this crime. This lifetime cannot be recovered, that is, as long as Yue Su is alive, the three copper guillotines are Yue Su's, unless Yue Su is dead. Yue Su is a minister who trusts the orphan, and if there is no big fault, he will never be dealt with.

Zhang Yan thought for a long time, shook his head slightly, and said: "The first emperor made a decree before his death, and the three copper crests will be given to Yue Su forever, and they will not be able to be recovered during his lifetime. He Yue Su doesn't have any big fault now, and it is difficult for me to recover, and besides, before the first emperor has been in the land for a year, I will take measures to dispose of his ministers who are orphans. Okay, isn't he already home now, and your father (mother) is mourning, you will live in the capital in the future, and you won't be able to meet him. At this point, Zhang Yan changed her words and said: "I intend to let my father be the commander of the Five Cities Rong Ma Division, and in the future, my father will be in charge of the defense of the capital, and my heart can be steady." ”

It turned out that Zhang Yan let her family go to Beijing, but she actually had another deep meaning. Her orphans and widows are always unsteady, Dongchang let Zou Yi take care of it, the imperial horse supervisor let Cao Huachun take care of it, and Jinyiwei let Luo Yang take over Hou Guoxing's class. But these people are not their own family members, so they are considering letting the people closest to them take charge of Beijing's defense.

He had already negotiated this with Fang Congzhe, and Fang Congzhe promised to sit firmly on this first assistant and gradually expand his strength. In this way, Zhang Yan will be at ease and bold for favoritism.

The rank of the commander of the Wucheng Rong Ma Division is not high, but the power is very large, and it has always been borne by the nobles, and if the queen wants to use her relatives, she must obtain the support of the cabinet. When Zhang Guoji heard that his daughter was going to give him this errand, he was very happy in his heart, and secretly thought: "My daughter is elbowed in after all, and when she encounters a major event, she still has to rely on her own family." ”

So, within three days, the will was announced by the celebrant supervisor, and the cabinet issued an edict to seal Zhang Guoji as the commander of the Wucheng Rongma Division.

On the same night that Zhang Guoji received the decree, a guest came to his mansion.

This person's name is Wan Liao, and he is now the head of the camp of the Ministry of Industry, and the official is not very big, but he has always been good at drilling camps. In the past, when Yue Su was in power, he had planned to join Yue Su's door, but after Yue Su checked his resume, he saw that this person was just a person who greeted and patted horses, so he ignored it. Now that Yue Su's father (mother) has returned to his hometown, and the city of Beijing has changed, he planned to vote for another powerful figure, Fang Congzhe's disciple, but because he is from Jiangxi and has no real skills, Fang Congzhe also confiscated him. He had no way to work, just in time for Zhang Guoji to enter Beijing and take up an important position, thinking in his heart, it is better to try his luck here with Zhang Guoji, if he is thrown under the Zhang family, it will not be under the door of the Queen Mother, and the future will not be limited.

Zhang Guoji is the grandfather of the dynasty and the emperor, so he naturally will not put such officials in his eyes, but out of courtesy, he still let him enter the door, and he will send people away after two sentences. also patted his chest to ensure that he could have at least 50,000 taels of silver every year.

Fifty thousand taels of silver a year, what a big number is this, hearing this, Zhang Guoji's eyes immediately lit up, and he asked what the wealth was. Wan Liao is really shameless, and he doesn't hide it, and he directly shows what he wants in his heart.

The recent updates are really not enough, and the main reason is that the unit is too busy. But rest assured, the wing will not be very busy next month, and it will resume more than 10,000 a day at that time. We ask for your continued support. Thank you!
