Zhengde snorted and said, "Since this is the case, then I will spare you, and you can go to the clean room and cut it." ”

Li Hua smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, if the slave wants to cut it, won't it be over if he cuts it himself?" Minion...... I really don't want to be a eunuch anymore, please be gracious to the emperor and spare me this knife. ”

Zhengde's brows furrowed slightly, and Duan Fei sighed lightly: "How many men in the world are willing to cut that knife?" The emperor, since ancient times, there have been many eunuchs who have gained power and even rebelled, and Weichen feels that the eunuch is better than nothing, and it is better to abolish it, and Gonggong Li will not have to be stabbed again. ”

Zhengde shook his head and said: "Duan Aiqing, you are whimsical again, if you abolish the eunuchs, will all the palace maids be used in the huge palace?" ”

Duan Fei said indifferently: "Your Majesty, eunuchs have not existed since ancient times, and they will disappear sooner or later in the future, and those who have been punished by the palace will have some defects in their thinking, once they are in power, it is not surprising that they are tyrannical and tyrannical and even rebel, if the emperor is really eloquent, he will completely abolish the eunuchs, and most of the palace concubines and concubines will be removed, leaving only the people who serve the emperor, the queen, the queen mother and other harem concubines, the three major halls will be burned at the right time, Weichen suggested that the emperor use boulders to build new buildings in the palace, with something called cement, The newly repaired building can be guaranteed to be strong and solid for thousands of years, and the emperor doesn't want to have more time to get out of the palace and go to all parts of the country and even cross the ocean to other countries to play? Then establish a perfect parliamentary system, the emperor only needs to grasp the military power, and the rest will be handed over to the parliament, and the cabinet will be elected by the parliament, and the head of the cabinet will be called the prime minister for a term of four years...... If the objectives of the Cabinet are not achieved during their term of office, the Emperor will elect a new Cabinet to govern the country......"

Duan Fei said a lot of things that made people stunned, and Zhengde interrupted Duan Fei's words dumbfounded, "Stop, stop, stop!" Duan Aiqing, you say so much at once, where do I remember, you still write an excerpt and hand it over in the morning court, let everyone discuss it, Li Hua, you get up, take Zhang Rui and other rebels down, and directly pull out the noon gate tomorrow at noon and behead it, I don't want to hear their names anymore, as for you...... Keep that knife first, and then let's talk about it later! ”

Li Hua got up in gratitude, escorted Zhang Rui and the others away, and in addition to Jinniuwei, only Zhengde, Duan Fei, Su Rong, and Lingyu were left at the scene.

Zhengde looked at the large ruins and said, "Ah Fei, will it cost a lot to build a palace with stones?" When Qin Shi Huang built the Great Wall, he left a lot of infamy. ”

Duan Fei said: "The emperor is too worried, now the transportation is developed, the means of transportation and quarrying tools are much stronger than in the Qin Dynasty, not to mention that the Great Wall is too long, the emperor only wants to build two or three stone buildings, not to mention that the emperor thinks that it is easy to cut down thousand-year-old trees from Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi and other deep mountains and then transport them to Beijing, or is it easy to use gunpowder to open the mountains from Sichuan and Shaanxi and other places nearby, and think it is easy to send the largest stones of only one meter square to the capital locally?" ”

Zhengde said with a smile: "Duan Aiqing's ideas are always so novel and insightful, so I will build a few stone palaces to take a look, since ancient times, I have never heard of anyone building a stone palace." ”

Duan Fei said: "The stone palace is warm in winter and cool in summer, it can be inherited for thousands of years, and it rarely needs to be maintained, after it is completed, the emperor will understand that the stone palace can be built very grandiose, and the layers can be dozens of stories high, and the star picking tower is just a small ant compared to it, and the entire palace can be included in it, the emperor is at the top of the floor, and the lower layers have their own functions, and the bottom floor can also be used as a place for parliamentary proceedings, and only a few guards can be used to protect the safety, and what is the use of the emperor leaving so many palace maids and eunuchs at that time?" ”

Zhengde smiled and said, "I heard you say it so well, could it be that you have seen it before?" ”

Duan Fei said: "Your Majesty, the palaces of Europe are built like this, and the Europeans are still good at building huge palaces with stone, if the emperor has made up his mind, Weichen can introduce a few architects from Europe to the emperor, and they will give the emperor a satisfactory answer." ”

Zhengde thought for a while and said, "There is no evidence, you go back and ask them to draw some drawings, and calculate how much silver it will cost." ”

Duan Fei nodded and said happily: "The emperor is wise, and Weichen is glad that the Ming Dynasty has such a bright lord as the emperor, but ...... Wechen is still guilty now, how does the emperor plan to deal with Wechen? Please also ask the emperor to make it clear. ”

Zhengde smiled and said: "I just said that I never really wanted to kill you, now there is only one last question, if you promise to marry Yongfu back, I will pardon you, you are still your grandfather, I will still use you when I want to use you." ”

Duan Fei shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen did not lose his morality after drinking, let alone blasphemy Her Royal Highness the princess, this is all Zhang Rui's conspiracy, Weichen already has a wife and a concubine, Weichen can't delay Her Royal Highness the princess for life, please let the emperor know!" ”

Zhengde said with a straight face: "The matter of not being able to bully the princess has been spread by the streets, Yongfu has no other way but to marry you, you had better agree, otherwise it will ......"

Duan Fei didn't speak, but the resolute look on his face said it all, Su Rong coughed lightly on the side, Duan Fei glanced back at her, and said, "Rong'er, you take your junior sister back first, I have something to talk to the emperor secretly." ”

Su Rong looked at him worriedly, and Zhengde smiled: "It just so happens that I also have some things to discuss with Duan Aiqing, Su girl, you go back first, and I guarantee that Duan Fei will go back to see you completely." ”

Su Rong had no choice but to bow to Zhengde and retreat, Zhengde took Duan Fei back to the leopard room and came to the top floor of the Star Picking Tower, and the rest of the people retreated to the distance, Zhengde and Duan Fei sat opposite each other, Zhengde was silent for a long time before saying: "Ah Fei, what do you want to say to me?" ”

Duan Fei said: "Your Majesty, you are still so young, you are in the prime of life, why do you want to do this?" ”

Zhengde twisted his waist and said with some anxiety: "What did I do?" ”

Duan Fei's gaze looked at Zhengde as never before, and said: "Your Majesty, although Weichen was drugged and delirious in the past few days, he still has some vague memories in his mind after waking up, Your Majesty, you can understand that you are worried about Weichen, but why are you ...... actually used medicine to make Wechen do such a thing! How embarrassing is this for the minister! How will the ministers face the emperor in the future, how to face the concubine, and how to face the future dragon sons and grandsons? The emperor simply killed me, so as not to regret killing his ministers in the future! ”

Zhengde gasped for a few moments, he avoided Duan Fei's gaze, swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and hissed: "You really still have memories, Shao Yuanjie clearly said that there will be no memories after taking the medicine." ”

Duan Fei said: "It turned out to be the medicine refined by Shao Tianshi, no wonder it is so powerful, Wei Chen has long been able to control the leakage of Jing Yuan, but when he woke up in the morning in those days, his body seemed to be hollowed out, Concubine Shuniang should have had a pregnancy reaction in the past few days, right?" Hasn't the emperor really thought about killing me these days? ”

Zhengde gradually calmed down, and he smiled bitterly: "I admit that I thought about killing you, but I can't be that ruthless, I'm not the kind of person who crosses the river and draws bridges, I'm not a tyrant, I ...... Just a poor incompetent man, Zhang Rui...... It's not a pity for him to die! ”

Duan Fei really wanted to tell Zhengde that Zhang Rui's use of medicine to harm Zhengde was made up by him, but he knew that this could never be said, and he muttered: "Your Majesty, didn't Master Shao Tianshi say that there is still hope?" ”

Zhengde shook his head and said: "After so many things, I have learned not to trust anyone, I have actually been preparing for today, haven't you always wondered why I have not favored Concubine Shu?" This is because Concubine Shu is specially reserved for you, Concubine Shu was still a virgin before the third day of the eighth month, so far you are the only man, a few years ago it was rumored that I stayed in Shude Palace is just an illusion made by me, I am worse than Li Hua, he can not practice that damn kung fu, but I have no choice at all! ”

Duan Fei was so smart, he quickly figured out a lot of things, and he said tentatively: "So the emperor is just reserving a way back for himself?" The emperor used Concubine Shu to borrow seeds from Weichen, just in case? ”

Zhengde smiled bitterly: "A few years ago, I brought back a woman surnamed Ma from Datong, I didn't know that she was pregnant, when the matter was exposed, I had a whim, I wanted to hide the matter, leaving the child, but unfortunately the paper still can't contain the fire, I had to drive her out of the capital, I still miss her very much...... As for Concubine Shu, it's impossible for you, the enforcer of the White Lotus Sect and the commander of the Jinyi Guard, not to know her true identity, right? When I wanted to take a concubine, Zhang Rui had already told me her origin in order to frame you, and I was thinking about whether I should arrange for you to have a private meeting with Concubine Shu, and then leave your seeds, you are the smartest and most capable person around me, and I naturally thought of you first when I wanted to choose a stallion. ”

Duan Fei smiled bitterly, it turned out that Zhengde had been calculating himself for several years, no wonder he was so handy once he made a move, Zhengde continued: "I have thought about it, if Concubine Shu gives birth to a son, it can relieve the pressure on me, so that I can calm down and cultivate slowly, maybe I can really give birth to a biological dragon in a few years." ”

Duan Fei asked, "What will happen to the mother and son of the concubine?" ”

Zhengde said: "If there is really that day, I will return the child to you, and it is a big deal to announce that the child died, as for the concubine...... She is just a demon girl of the White Lotus Sect, she entered the palace in order to bewitch me and plot to seize the world, you don't even want to marry my imperial sister, will you still worry about a demon girl? ”

Duan Fei shook his head and said, "Lady Concubine...... Qingqing girl, she is not that kind of person, the emperor can see from her singing and dancing, she yearns for freedom and unfettered life, and she has long parted ways with the White Lotus Sect, if it weren't for Weichen rejecting her, she ...... has already become the concubine of Weichen, the emperor, if you have a real prince, you will return the mother and son of the concubine to Weichen, although Weichen can't help himself, but to cause today's facts, Weichen also has an unshirkable responsibility. ”
