Chapter 973: Attention (I)

Jiajing actually doesn't care much about Zhang's life or death, if she really cares, she also cares about when she will close her eyes.

However, after Yang Chengzu reminded the Zhang family that after his death, the emperor would have to guard his filial piety and mourn, and the matter of marrying the queen would be postponed, Jiajing was really anxious and urged the imperial doctor to do his best to rescue. He also summoned Tao Zhongwen and asked the immortal to hurry up and pray for the life of Our Lady Zhang. Of course, it is necessary to save her life, but the time must be controlled well, and you must not cast too many spells, and it will be very inappropriate to ask for ten years of yang life for her at once.

Empress Dowager Zhang's physical fitness is still good, although she has not exercised much, but she has also not been offended, plus she eats and drinks very well, and her foundation is still good. Age is not the last age of the wind and candle, the imperial doctor has pricked needles, used medicine, and tossed for half a night, probably sure that she is out of danger.

The imperial doctor's public statement is that the Virgin is old and inevitably has some pain, in fact, several imperial doctors know in their hearts, and it is not an exaggeration for Zhang to say that she was angry. It's just that as soon as this kind of thing is said, he will bear the responsibility of slandering the monarch's father, and he will rot the words in his stomach.

Yang Chengzu stayed here and didn't leave, and was busy until the second half of the night, and only after making sure that there was no problem did he say goodbye, but he was stopped by Jiajing, "When is it, what are you going back to do." I have to go to court tomorrow morning, forget it, let's sleep in the palace, everyone is a family, not so much exquisite. ”

In order to maintain the image of a filial son, Jiajing did not recruit a concubine to sleep tonight, he is now the age of blood and strength, and he practices Tao Zhongwen's anti-middle technique, and he can't actually sleep with an empty pillow at night. simply asked Zhang Zuo to prepare a snack, and talked to Yang Chengzu.

"Big brother, you said that this old beggar, if she can't wake up like this, isn't it good? If she dies, my wedding will be postponed, and if she lives, she will annoy me every day. Why don't you go and tell the Imperial Doctor, let them be smarter themselves, just like this, let her not die or live, and everyone will be pure. ”

"Hooray, having said that, it's not fun to do that. After His Majesty's wedding, we will eradicate the Zhang brothers, and at that time, if the Zhang family is sober and sees her relatives beheaded, it will be enjoyable. Just let her sleep like that, cheap her. ”

Jiajing thought for a while, and also felt that compared with the two, it was still Yang Chengzu's method to relieve hatred, "Okay, I will do it according to the eldest brother's method, let the imperial doctor do his best to rescue, and save the person." Also, Sister Xue Niang's side, the eldest brother is going to run twice. Sun Laoweng is good at everything, but he is a little tendoned, and now, he is still a little resistant to sending a woman into the palace. I heard that it was Sister Xue Niang's hard work that he agreed to his sister's entry into the palace, but he had to resign again. I still want to reuse him, he resigned, isn't it intentional? ”

Of course, Yang Chengzu understands that Sun Xueniang is desperate to enter the palace, but she is actually desperate to save herself, although she is now sure that she is fine, but the words have been spoken, the matter has been promised, and she has no way to regret it. Sun Jiao didn't agree with this marriage in the first place, otherwise he would have agreed in Anlu. Once he became the emperor's father-in-law, the prestige he had accumulated in Shilin at the beginning would almost be wiped out. Most people will see him as a shame for Shilin, and he will be poked in the back as an official. As a person who cherishes feathers, he must choose to retreat to the forest.

According to his understanding of Sun Jiao, even if he really stays in the court, he will only disagree with Jiajing, and even in order to maintain his image, he will continue to oppose things that he clearly supports. But from the overall situation, in order to reverse the trend of the Ming Dynasty since the change of civil engineering, the queen was born in a poor family, and the nobles and the imperial family were rejected by the court, even if it was used as a tablet, Sun Jiao had to stay in the court.

To do this kind of thing, the eunuch is almost hot, his identity is not equal, he is speechless in front of Sun Jiao, although he has broken off his friendship with the Sun family, but he still has a better position to do this.

The only sadness in this is probably Xue Niang, she is very affectionate to herself, and now she is going to her house by herself to persuade her father to stay and be the ruler of the country, and she must not feel good in her heart. It can only be said that this is the least bad choice so far, and I hope that after she takes charge of the Sixth Palace in the future, she will understand her good intentions.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will take the time to go, Sun Laoweng is also a stubborn temper. Staying in the court, he will not be transferred to Banzai, and the position of the household, in the opinion of the minister, he is not suitable to continue. ”

Jiajing nodded, "I originally thought that in a place like the money bag, I would put one of my own. But after a few years of him, I found out that he was not my confidant at all. Although they were all Anlu, his elbows were still turning outward. But no matter what, he is also my old Taishan, and I can't treat him badly. simply, let him enter the cabinet, be a cabinet minister, and then make him a princess, how can he be right. ”

For the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty, being born as a Taifu and dying as a Wenzheng is the most ideal state of life. Even Yang Tinghe has not yet struggled to this point, Jiajing let him be a concubine because he married Sun Jiao's daughter, which is not only to set an example, but also to deliberately embarrass Yang Tinghe.

Although Yang Tinghe's position on southeastern affairs was consistent with that of the emperor during the period of the southeastern peace, this did not mean that the cooperation between the monarch and the minister in the past two years was harmonious. On the contrary, in the past two years, due to the lack of Yang Chengzu as a shield and lubricating oil, the contradictions between the monarch and the minister have become increasingly acute, and there is a lot of sabre-rattling in it.

Jiajing is now full-fledged, naturally he no longer wants to tolerate a minister of power standing on his head and thinning the authority of the emperor, and after getting rid of the Zhang family, he also began to think about it and aimed his head at this first assistant.

The news of Empress Dowager Zhang's stroke soon spread to Shamao Hutong, Yang Tinghe and his home. The first assistant had just sent off a few guests, the messenger from the palace, and after the news was delivered, he left in a hurry, leaving only Yang Tinghe to stand in the courtyard for a long time, until Yang Shen helped him back to the secret room, and then came back to his senses.

"Father, Zhang's lawlessness and arrogance, the first emperor is in Japan, and you have been impeached several times. Now that they have a conflict with Yang Chengzu, it seems to the child that it is a good thing. There must be an injury when the two tigers fight, no matter who wins in the end, it can be regarded as reducing a scourge for the imperial court. The child was originally worried, and they were in cahoots, and at that time, it was really uncontrollable. Now that they have come to this point, the child thinks that it is my blessing. ”

Yang Tinghe shook his head, "You didn't understand this, although the Zhang family is domineering, it can only be regarded as a clown who jumps off the beam, and the interference in the government is insignificant." Domestic slaves oppress innocents and embezzle property, which is a big deal in the people, and people who can be involved are ruined, but they are not even qualified to go to the court. On the contrary, it was Yang, his Yang Ji, who is now getting bigger and bigger. The few people who came over and talked to their father about it were all about Yang Ji. Those few people are all important ministers in the court, and they all attach so much importance to Yang Ji's affairs, so you can know how harmful Yang Ji is. For his father, he would rather the Zhang family deal with Yang, than hope that Yang defeated the Zhang family. Two tigers compete for food, if one tiger swallows the other, and regenerates its own wings, you say, how should we deal with such a fierce beast? ”
