readx;

After Yang Wei resigned, Shen Li, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, after completing the procedure of establishing a prince, also told the old man to return to his hometown, and Emperor Wanli approved it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Zhu Changxun, the son of Zheng Guifei, was the crown prince, and Zhu Changluo, the eldest son of the emperor, was named King Fu, and the fief was set in Luoyang, Henan.

Compared with the sighs of so many people outside, Concubine Wang Gong is infinitely happy, she was already frightened because her children were involved in the whirlpool, but now she has the blessing of being a vassal king for a lifetime, which is really a great joy.

And there is news from the Qianqing Palace, after the Fu King Zhu Changluo is in the domain, you can consider letting Wang Gongfei go to live, although the concubines are not allowed to leave the palace, but the Empress Dowager Cisheng Li has gone to the Wuqing Marquis's Mansion, so there is not so much attention here.

Concubine Wang Gong originally had no involvement in the competition for favor in the palace, and it was his greatest hope that she could be accompanied by her son.

Regarding Zhu Changxun's appointment as the crown prince, the Jingshi is already silent, and the land of Gyeonggi is also silent, but in other provinces, but in Jiangnan, there are still a lot of noises.

After the officials who returned to their hometowns learned the details of the matter of the establishment of the prince in Beijing, they were all silent, and those who knew about the officialdom and politics were chilling

The Great Tomorrow Son has always been able to be wronged in front of the civil officials, and he can't get cheap here, and he is just reusing eunuchs and rebuilding the martial arts and nobles.

The only example is that Emperor Jiajing, in the case of the Great Rites Discussion, used Jinyi Wei to beat the civil servants and hundreds of officials with a court staff, completely knocking off his face, so in the end of the Jiajing Dynasty, the civil officials have been firmly suppressed by the Son of Heaven.

But in the late Jiajing period, Xu Jie's reign, until the first ten years after Wanli ascended the throne, the Wenchen group headed by the six cabinet ministries completely dominated the government, after the name Wang Tong appeared in everyone's field of vision, the situation dominated by Wenchen was gradually reversed, and then the great prosperity of Tianjin Wei, the great victory of the naturalized city that shook the past and the present, and all kinds of twists and turns.

These are all surprising to everyone, but they can still sit back and watch, because they don't have much to do with themselves, but this time, everyone is shocked.

When Emperor Wanli was in the Great Dynasty Meeting, he mobilized heavy troops to surround him, and transferred troops to the left of the Beijing Division in Tianjin, what did the emperor want to do, the emperor clearly wanted the Beijing Division to be completely destroyed.

How can the Son of Heaven do this, how can the Son of Heaven have such courage, and more importantly, the Son of Heaven actually has the strength to do so, everyone related to officialdom is shocked, frightened, and then kept silent.

It's okay to ask for fame, it's okay to stick to the right path, but you can't hurt your own life, you can't damage your own interests, now that the Son of Heaven is doing it nakedly, it's better to shut up!

Compared with these wise and self-protecting officialdom and former officialdom, those local scholars who have never been officials, as well as the so-called old Confucians, all have a lot of opinions on this.

Some people write letters to Jingshi, some people ask people to go to the top, but their opinions are insignificant, their arguments are just a dispute of righteousness and reason, they have a family and a business, whether the Son of Heaven likes the eldest son or the second son has nothing to do with them, and it is common for them to like the younger son.

………………

On July 22, someone in the palace sent news to the eunuch that Zhang Hong, the former eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch Bingbi, had died of hunger strike, which made Zhang Cheng, the eunuch of the master of ceremonies and the governor of Dongchang, uncomfortable for a long time.

The forbidden army and the Beijing camp have exchanged blood, and the generals from the Tiger Mighty Martial Arts Pavilion have not been promoted to too high official positions, and the positions of the scattered officials are very high, and there are all kinds of benefits, and the actual lack of shares is the position of the thousand general, the garrison, etc., such a position has an advantage, it can actually control the soldiers and horses, and the soldiers and horses can be mobilized in the first time.

As a general, Chen Sibao got the most benefits this time, he became the battalion officer of the warrior battalion, and among the five major battalions of the imperial horse supervisor in Beijing, the warrior battalion had the strongest strength and the highest status.

Most of the changes in the internal officials and generals were expected, and what everyone was most concerned about was what arrangements Wang Tong should make for the commander of Dingbei Hou and Jinyi Wei.

Wang Tong is in a high position, although before this, he was suspicious of the Son of Heaven and self-exiled to Guihua City, but this time he secretly sneaked back to Beijing and assisted Emperor Wanli to solve the turmoil of Lichu, and he was the first to act.

Emperor Wanli was almost cornered by the Empress Dowager and her courtiers in this turmoil, Wang Tong took the initiative to come here regardless of the previous suspicion and the infamy that this matter was about to incur, what kind of reward should he get. He is already in such a position, if he wants to be rewarded, how to reward him, and what kind of power can he give Wang Tong to repay him for his merits, but if he is rewarded again, will Wang Tong's power affect others, and will it make people suspicious.

When it was almost August, news came out from the palace, this time it was ready to let Wang Tongdu supervise the Beijing camp, and as soon as this news came out, the public opinion of the Beijing division was in an uproar.

The so-called "uproar" is no longer the excitement of the former crowd, but the secret exchange and conversation, Wang Tong's power swelled This is already in everyone's expectation, the key is what it will swell to, Wang Tong has Jinyi Wei in his hands, if there is another Beijing camp, it is equal to three-fifths of the military strength of the Beijing division is in his hands, this is not the way of his subordinates.

But now in this situation, no one dares to say anything anymore, and it is up to him to do how happy the emperor himself is. ””……

Although Wang Tong went to Guihua City, he was still the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and when he returned to Beijing, he was still going to participate in the court meeting and serve the Son of Heaven.

However, he had just returned to Beijing, and the situation in Beijing was unstable, and Wang Tong needed to sit in Jinyiwei to dispatch in the center, so it was not until the third day of the eighth month that Wang Tong appeared at the court meeting.

The daily court meeting, the cabinet members, the six Shangshu, the imperial envoys of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the relevant yamen have to attend the meeting, compared with half a month ago, it is already a generation of new people replacing the old.

The secretary of the ministry and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites have been replaced by a squire, and the rest of the books are not as strong as Yang Wei and Shen Li, they value their current position more, and they dare not ask for any progress, nor dare to do anything dangerous.

When Wang Tong appeared at the court meeting proudly, the six Shangshu did not do anything except treat each other coldly, and the emperor was the latest to arrive at the court meeting every day.

These central princes of the Ming Dynasty had to talk about the world in the past, and even talk about the wind and the moon, but after the turmoil of the Great Dynasty Meeting, where was the squire angry and reprimanded Shangshu, the Manchu Dynasty attacked each other, and after scrambling to clear themselves, everyone was also a little embarrassed for a while, or the relationship between each other has changed from being polite and polite before, to a naked stake, and it will take a long time to return to normal.

Moreover, the space in the side hall of Fengtianmen where the court meeting was held was not large, even if it was a whisper, it was likely to be heard by others, especially when Wang Tong was here, everyone was even more vigilant in their hearts.

On the first day of Wang Tong's court, Wang Xijue, the second assistant of the cabinet, took the initiative to step forward and say a few words, but Wang Xijue stepped forward with a smile and saluted, and said:

"Now Dingbei Hou is the Dinghai Divine Needle of my dynasty, the chaotic situation in the previous period, as soon as Dingbei Hou comes back, the world will become quiet, it is really a pillar of the country!"

Wang Tong's ridicule in these words can also be heard, but literati always have to find a bargain in their mouths, and Wang Tong doesn't care, just lukewarmly replied:

"Now that the world is peaceful and prosperous, the inexplicable Jingshi has become so chaotic, is there some kind of demon?"

Wang Xijue coughed, cleared his throat and said:

"Lord Wang, Wang may offend some words when he says something, we must have the duty to be a courtier, and the power is the grace of the Son of Heaven, there is nothing to say about this, but the power of being a courtier is too heavy, even if it is the grace of the saint, the courtier must also have self-knowledge, and must not be proud of the momentary Xuanhe, spoil the affection of the monarch and the minister, and live up to the grace of the saint."

Wang Tong pondered for a while, and said indifferently:

"Providence dictatorship, what is the holy thing to do, how can we as courtiers speculate on it?"

Hearing Wang Tong's watertight answer, Wang Xijue shook his head, there was no smile on his face, he just sighed, but said solemnly:

"Lord Wang, some power is grace, and some power is the way to death, Lord Wang's current status and wealth, and his family members, must not make trouble for the pleasure of one person for a while!"

After saying this, Wang Xijue nodded, and was about to turn around and return to his queue, he just made a move, but heard Wang Tong say behind him:

"Thank you Wang Ge for reminding me, Wang is self-aware and knows what he should do!"

Wang Xijue looked back, but saw that Wang Tong gave up his hands and made a gesture of acceptance, Wang Xijue was a little surprised, this Wang Tong was not as cold to Wenchen as rumored, but still knew about the accident.

Hearing a report outside, Emperor Wanli walked into the hall, the eunuchs sang, and everyone bowed respectfully, and when everyone looked up, they all noticed that Emperor Wanli nodded to Wang Tong, which is a greeting, is this still a monarch and a minister, when the ministers bow, the monarch actually has to reply.

“…… There is a ...... of Chen Song"

Now in this situation, the courtiers are just doing their own duties, there is nothing to play, everyone is silent, just silent for a while, Wang Tong bowed down, and said:

"Your Majesty, please resign
