Sitting on the couch, her expression was a little tired, but the Empress Dowager Sun, who was still clear and capable in her eyes, raised her hand and rubbed her tight brows, sleepless all night, which made her mentally exhausted, "The mourning family called you, there is really an important matter to entrust to you, I don't know if you are willing?" ”

"The slave and maid have been taken care of by the Queen Mother since she was a child, and her grace is as heavy as a mountain, no matter what it is, as long as the Queen Mother orders it, the slave and maid will definitely do it well." The nineteen-year-old palace maid nodded vigorously, her voice gentle and sweet, but not weak.

"Zhen'er, in Renshou Palace, the mourning family's favorite is you, do you know why?" Empress Dowager Sun carefully looked at this girl with a decisive and heroic spirit between her eyebrows with a hint of appreciation.

Her name is Wan Zhen'er, her father Wan Gui was relegated to Bazhou because of the crime of his relatives, in order to make the queen have something to rely on, he entrusted his fellow villagers to bring his four-year-old daughter Wan Zhen'er into the palace as a palace maid. The young Wan Zhen'er seemed very sensible and well-behaved, and won the love of the Empress Dowager Sun, who was still the queen at the time, at that time, she was left to serve in the left and right, it can be said that Wan Zhen'er almost grew up with what she watched, and Wan Zhen'er also lived up to the love of the Empress Dowager, whether it was doing things or being a person, she was deeply liked by the Empress Dowager Sun, which also made her the most trusted confidant of the Empress Dowager Sun.

Thinking that his most valued henchman would be arranged by himself to do the kind of thing that can almost be called dangerous, Empress Dowager Sun's eyes flashed a trace of unbearability, but when she thought of that Zhu Jianshen, Empress Dowager Sun could only continue to harden her heart, looking at this young girl full of youthful vitality, and sighed softly: "Because you are shrewd and sensible, you know how to advance and retreat when you do things, know how to divide the scale, and more importantly, your loyalty." ”

"Now, the crown prince has been arranged by the emperor to live in Ciqing Palace. Except for her biological mother, Concubine Zhou, and a few confidants, there is no credible person to serve nearby. Therefore, the mourning family specially picked you over. Give the mourning family a good look at the prince, don't let the prince suffer any harm, and let the prince avoid unnecessary trouble as much as possible. Do you understand? ”

Hearing the Queen Mother's words, even if Wan Zhen'er was calm, her face couldn't help but turn a little pale at this moment, and as soon as she thought about it, she already understood that the reason why the Queen Mother Sun did this was because it was related to the secret letter sent into the palace last night, and the content of that secret letter was to point out that someone was going to be unfavorable to His Royal Highness the Prince.

-------------------- can have such courage and energy to do this in the Forbidden City, except for the current son who is high on the dragon chair, I am afraid that he will not think about it as a second person. Thinking of this, Wan Zhen'er couldn't help but take a deep breath, and her gaze became extremely resolute. "Don't worry, the slave and maid have all understood, and the slave and maid will definitely do it with their hearts. He will not let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suffer even the slightest harm. ”

"With your words, the mourning family is much more relieved, not to mention that Concubine Zhou was originally a person around the mourning family, you are also old acquaintances, and you can also understand something when you do things. In addition, you can rest assured that the mourning family will send a few more palace wives and eunuchs to accompany you, so that you will not be weak. And you are still the person next to the mourning family. Every word and deed still represents Renshou Palace, understand? Speaking of this, Empress Dowager Sun paused, and her voice suddenly turned sharp: "If there is something, you can't stop it, remember to send someone to report to the mourning family in time, and the mourning family wants to see who dares to do those things that have lost their conscience in front of the mourning family." ”

"The slave and maid obey the decree of the Queen Mother." Wan Zhen'er bowed respectfully, at this moment, she understood how heavy the burden on her shoulders was, and also made her understand how cruel the battle for imperial power was.

Empress Dowager Sun's eyes fell on the outside of the hall, and she muttered to herself in a low voice: "Alas, the mourning family really doesn't want the emperor to know the news, but for such a big event, the mourning family doesn't want him to blame me for being a mother later." ”

"Emperor Taishang......" Hearing this title, Wan Zhen'er's brilliant beautiful eyes couldn't help but light up, and she quietly raised her thick eyelashes and glanced at the worried Empress Dowager Sun and quickly drooped down, but her mind couldn't help but fly into the distance.

Emperor Zhu Qizhen, in the past, in his childhood, lived in the palace since he was a child, experienced countless intrigues, and finally lived out with difficulty relying on his own intelligence, in the eyes of Wan Zhen'er, he is just a good gentleman, and he doesn't even seem to know how to have a temper.

Concubine Zhou and Wan Zhen'er have been by the side of the Empress Dowager Sun since they were children, and they are deeply favored by the Empress Dowager Sun, and before the marriage of the Son of Heaven, the Empress Dowager Sun had thought about it and asked the opinions of the two, and in the end, Concubine Zhou was willing to become the emperor's concubine and serve Zhu Qizhen. And Wan Zhen'er faintly rejected Zhu Qizhen, the authentic greenhouse flower, from her heart, or rather, in Wan Zhen'er's eyes, Zhu Qizhen is really not strong, without a little bit of the kingly style of the Son of Heaven, without a trace of the domineering of the Ming monarch in the world, but instead relying on those eunuchs to act recklessly, not even a little bit of the majesty of the king.

So Wan Zhen'er refused because she was too young and wanted to stay with the Queen Mother more.

But what happened next was too dizzying, the Ming 200,000 elites were defeated in Tumubao, Zhu Qizhen was captured by the tile thorn, and after that, the news about Zhu Qizhen seemed to be like thunder one after another into the Beijing division, under the city of Xuanfu, the original good gentleman, even if the surname is not called cowardly, at least it is weak Zhu Qizhen dared to face the famous murderer, the sword and axe in the iron rider of the tile spur iron rider who killed people were nothing, and he refused the request of the tile spur Taishi to call open the gate of Xuanfu.

When she heard the news, Mo said that it was the Empress Dowager Sun who was so frightened that she almost fainted, and even Wan Zhen'er, who had always been calm and rational, was so shocked that she dropped the tea she was holding on the floor.

At that moment, Wan Zhen'er was really taken aback in her heart, first thinking that Zhu Qizhen was crazy, otherwise, how could he do such a thing with his cowardly surname who swallowed water like water.

And then, above the city head of Yanjing City, with the Empress Dowager Sun, she rushed to the tower of Deshengmen City, and saw Zhu Qizhen again, although separated by the moat and the tall city wall, Wan Zhen'er could still faintly see Zhu Qizhen's blurred face.

That day, she was deeply shocked by Zhu Qizhen's words and deeds, she never thought that Zhu Qizhen would have such a violent side, his roar, like the sound of the noisy war drums, stirred in the hearts and even souls of millions of soldiers and civilians in Beijing.

He stood in the prisoner's cart, beating the figures of the spurs who did not dare to resist at all like a ruffian, and at that moment, Wan Zhen'er felt that he was even more majestic than the new emperor who lived high in the city, and more radiant than the sun hanging high in the sky.

At that moment, Wan Zhen'er finally found that her originally silent heartstrings seemed to have been smashed with a sledgehammer, smashing the piano and flying strings, so that she could no longer forget that scene, the person she had originally refused...... After that, one news after another kept coming into the palace ban and into Wan Zhen'er's ears. The legendary stories that seemed to only appear in the book review were remembered in her ears one after another.

made Wan Zhen'er completely stunned, how could the big tomorrow who had known him for more than ten years become like that, and he was so fascinating. Not only her, but almost all the palace maids in Renshou Palace will have starry eyes and peach blossoms in their eyes when they hear the news of Zhu Qizhen.

Although she never thought that she would like the emperor, the performance of these palace maids made Wan Zhen'er feel a little sour in her heart and secretly annoyed. I also felt a little alienated from that concubine for no reason.

But now, Empress Dowager Sun has given herself such a task, in her heart, Wan Zhen'er is very happy to protect the only concubine of Zhu Qizhen, but she has inexplicable hostility towards Concubine Zhou.

"In any case, he is your sister-in-law, and as long as I am here, he will not be harmed in any way." After a long time, Wan Zhen'er, who had woken up from the chaotic thoughts, bit her red lips and clenched her fists extremely firmly, at least, she was doing something that had a lot to do with the Emperor Taishang, which made Wan Zhen'er feel as if she was in the dark, and she was getting closer to Na Zhu Qizhen...... -------------------- "Emperor Taishang, this, what you said is true?" Luo Hengxin's eyes widened like the upside-down teacup on the table, and he jumped up from the chair that Zhu Qizhen brought to him and said loudly.

"Lord Luo, you have lost your manners." Jiang Fu, who was sitting next to him, almost let the old guy knock over the tea cup in his hand, making the hot tea burn his teeth, and glared at Luo Hengxin with a hint of resentment.

"Hehe, old Aiqing, sit down, you don't have to be so excited." Zhu Qizhen couldn't help laughing, waved his hand to signal the two to sit down, and glanced at the civil and military in the hall.

In addition to Luo Hengxin, the governor of Xuanfu Town, and Jiang Fu, the chief soldier of Xuanfu Town, Ruan Lang, the new eunuch of Xuanfu Town, Zhao Ziyi, the prefect of Xuanfu Town, Ma Zhengda, the prefect of Xuanfu Town, Yin Zuochu, the deputy general Wang Jinchang and the two Yang Gongzi were all present.

These people were gradually taken by Zhu Qizhen's personal charm and the aura of a tyrant exuded by his tiger body, well, the serial shock of the dragon body. At least, although it can't be called a henchman, at least it won't be said that yang is against yin or anything.

At least, during this period of time, no one dared to wear small shoes for Zhu Qizhen, and those civil and military officials who originally complained about the so-called trading company stood up one after another in the days after beheading those eunuchs and minions, expressing their willingness to participate in the shares and support the righteous actions of the emperor.

And after them, the wealthy businessmen and magnates from all over the Xuanfu also stood up, and their appearance naturally brought a huge amount of money and replenished shares with materials. However, their joining can only be regarded as icing on the cake at best, after all, the gold and silver obtained by Zhu Qizhen from the confiscation of those eunuchs, as well as the gold and silver brought to Zhu Qizhen by Yan Shun's father and son, plus Zhu Qizhen's own ownership, is enough to build an unprecedentedly huge business group.

But the highlight is the big burden that Zhu Qizhen shook out today, big enough that Luo Hengxin almost tore off the burden of his long beard.
