Empress Dowager Zhang didn't think about hiding the news of the emperor's disappearance, after all, so many people knew about the emperor's disappearance, and it was not something she could hide if she wanted to.

But the news of the emperor's disappearance must be limited to a range, even if it is within a certain period of time, the news of the emperor's disappearance must be controlled.

Therefore, Empress Dowager Zhang only summoned a few elders, and only a few elders agreed on their opinions, so they could hide the news of the emperor's disappearance.

Under the gaze of the Empress Dowager Zhang, several pavilion elders couldn't help but feel a little bad in their hearts.

At this moment, I only heard the Empress Dowager Zhang speak slowly: "Several elders, you are all ministers trusted by the emperor, and you entrust you with the affairs of a country, which shows that Your Majesty has great trust in you." ”

Jiao Fang and several other pavilion elders hurriedly saluted and said: "The Queen Mother praises falsely, I am trusted by His Majesty, and I dare not be careless. ”

With a slight bow, Empress Dowager Zhang took a deep breath and said, "Today, the mourning family summoned you here, but there is a big matter to explain to you. ”

Jiao Fang and the others were sure in their hearts and looked at the Empress Dowager Zhang.

I only heard Empress Dowager Zhang say: "Last night, there was a nameless fire in the Qianqing Palace, because the fire was too fierce, and the fire was finally extinguished, but the Qianqing Palace was also destroyed......

Jiao Fang couldn't help but say anxiously: "Queen Mother, I don't know ...... Your Majesty."

A trace of confusion flashed on Empress Dowager Zhang's face, and she sighed slightly: "Your Majesty is protected by Shao Zhenren, and I expect to bless the heavens, Gu Dayong and Hu Yi have searched all night but have not found Your Majesty's whereabouts, for the time being, it can only be said that Your Majesty is missing......

"What? Your Majesty is missing, how can this be ......"

In the eyes of several elders, as the Son of Heaven, Zhu Houzhao either died in the fire, or he was out of danger when the fire broke out, and there was no disappearance at all.

But now that Empress Dowager Zhang actually told them that the Son of Heaven was missing, how could they not be surprised.

However, soon several cabinet elders reacted, and the reason why Empress Dowager Zhang announced the emperor's disappearance was expected to be to stabilize the current situation, after all, even if the Son of Heaven collapsed, it was not easy to announce it directly to the public.

If Zhu Houzhao has an heir left, and even set up a crown prince, then it is okay, even if Zhu Houzhao collapses, these ministers only need to assist the prince to ascend the throne.

However, the biggest problem at the moment is that there is no queen of heaven, and the position of the East Palace is vacant, which is not a trivial matter.

Fei Hong looked at Jiao Fang, then at the Empress Dowager Zhang, opened his mouth and said: "The Empress Dowager's intentions, the ministers already understand, but even if the ministers help to conceal this matter, I am afraid that it will not be able to hide it for a long time, it is a matter of the national system, and I ask the Empress Dowager to make a decision as soon as possible." ”

Empress Dowager Zhang couldn't help frowning when she heard this, waved her hand and said: "The mourning family has its own plans in this matter, the Son of Heaven is just missing, and before the safety of the Son of Heaven is determined, His Majesty the Mourning family will guard this Ming dynasty for the Son of Heaven." ”

Seeing that the Queen Mother was angry, several pavilion elders didn't dare to say anything at this time, after all, everyone could see that the Queen Mother Zhang was angry at this time, and they were already shocked by this sudden news.

When several cabinet elders withdrew, Empress Dowager Zhang said to Jiao Fang, the first assistant of the cabinet: "Elder Jiao, you stay, the mourning family still has something to say to you." ”

Seeing this, the other pavilion elders naturally left with great interest, and Jiao Fang was left in the hall, and Jiao Fang saluted the queen mother and said: "Queen Mother, I don't know if you want to leave the old minister, but what are your orders?" ”

The Queen Mother only showed a little dejected at this time, obviously when she faced a few elders, that kind of calm was simply the Queen Mother's support.

After all, such a big thing, for him and a woman, it was like a thunderbolt from the blue, and she didn't collapse, which was not easy.

Sighing slightly, the Queen Mother looked at Jiao Fang and said: "Elder Jiaoge, the mourning family knows that you are an old minister trusted by His Majesty, and now that His Majesty is missing, before His Majesty disappears, this capital must not be chaotic, and the Chinese military officials of the DPRK must not be chaotic, do you know?" ”

Jiao Fang's expression was solemn, and he said to the Empress Dowager Zhang: "Although the Empress Dowager is relieved, Jiao Fang understands in her heart that she will definitely appease the courtiers for the Empress Dowager, and she will not let any chaos occur in the hundred officials." ”

Nodding slightly, Empress Dowager Zhang looked at Jiao Fang with a somewhat soothing expression: "The mourning family is in a mess, but for a while, I don't know what to do. ”

Jiao Fang stroked her beard and said to the Empress Dowager Zhang with a solemn expression: "The Empress Dowager, there is an old man in the court to appease, but if you want to stabilize the situation in the capital, you still need the Empress Dowager to personally summon the British Duke, Dingguo Gong and other national dukes." ”

Empress Dowager Zhang was slightly stunned, obviously she didn't know Jiao Fang's intentions, but this was normal, after all, the Empress Dowager Zhang would not ask about national affairs, and she couldn't think of Jiao Fang's intention to ask her to summon the Duke of Britain and the Duke of Dingguo.

Jiao Fang explained: "Queen Mother, this Beijing camp soldiers and horses were originally handed over by His Majesty to Chu Yi, but now the general manager is outside, so the Queen Mother wants to stabilize the situation in the capital, the first thing is to stabilize the Beijing camp, as long as the Beijing camp is in hand, there will be no chaos in the capital." ”

Empress Dowager Zhang's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she nodded slightly and said: "What the elder said is very true, the mourning family ordered someone to summon the British Duke, Dingguo Gong and others to enter the palace. ”

Jiao Fang's face showed a little hesitation, and Empress Dowager Zhang noticed Jiao Fang's expression and couldn't help but say, "Elder Ge has anything else to say?" ”

Jiao Fang took a deep breath and looked at the Empress Dowager Zhang and said: "The Empress Dowager, please forgive the old minister, Your Majesty is missing, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no turmoil in the hearts of the people, even if it is the British Duke and the Dingguo Duke, the Empress Dowager is credible but cannot be fully trusted." ”

Empress Dowager Zhang is not a fool, Jiao Fang said it so bluntly, how she didn't understand Jiao Fang's concerns, it was nothing more than that she was afraid that the Duke of Dingguo and the Duke of Britain would take the opportunity to do something rebellious.

It's not that the British Duke wants to rebel or anything, in case the British Duke and others take charge of the military power, and then choose a random person from the royal family to put him on the throne, then the lord of the Ming Dynasty will belong to someone else.

With a tense heart, Empress Dowager Zhang looked at Jiao Fang and said, "Please also ask the elder to teach me." ”

Jiao Fang said slowly: "The most important thing for the Queen Mother at the moment is to master a certain amount of military power, and the old man suggested that the Queen Mother immediately summon Han Kun, the commander of the Tengxiang Four Guards, and Hu Yi, the commander of the forbidden army. ”

The Queen Mother looked at Jiao Fang with puzzlement and said, "Why did the elder let the mourning family summon these two people?" ”

For Hu Yi, Empress Dowager Zhang has a deep prejudice, after all, there was a fire in the palace, in the final analysis, as the commander of the forbidden army, Hu Yi will definitely not be able to escape responsibility.

Jiao Fang explained: "The queen mother doesn't know, the relationship behind several old princes is complicated, if you learn the news of Your Majesty's disappearance, her position is not daring to say anything, but the commander of the Tengxiang Four Guards is different, Han Kun, as the commander of the Tengxiang Four Guards, is deeply favored by the governor of Chu and His Majesty, it can be said that he will definitely stand on His Majesty's side and swear to defend His Majesty's interests, with nearly 50,000 elite people of Tengxiang Four Guards, even if a few old princes have other intentions, they will never dare to mess around." ”

Empress Dowager Zhang nodded slightly at Jiao Fang and said, "The mourning family ordered someone to send the commander of Teng Xiang Siwei to Han Kun to see him." ”

Brushing his beard, Jiao Fang said again: "Hu Yi, the commander of the forbidden army, is His Majesty's confidant, and now that His Majesty is missing, he can be said to be an unforgivable crime, but he is also the person who most hopes that His Majesty can be safe and sound, and if this person leads the forbidden army, there will be no turmoil in the Forbidden City." There are Tengxiang four guards outside, and there are forbidden troops guarding inside, unless someone wants to openly rebel, otherwise the situation in Beijing will inevitably not change. ”

Empress Dowager Zhang has been a husband and wife with Emperor Xiaozong for many years, and she still has this knowledge, so she nodded slightly and said: "The words of the elder pavilion are all based on the mourning family!" ”

Soon Han Kun came in a hurry, there was a fire in the palace, and as the commander of the Tengxiang Fourth Guard Battalion, Han Kun only just knew.

Tengxiang Four Guards were originally divided into four guards, and it was only right when there were four guards in command, but after those three commanders were taken by Chu Yi, only Han Kun was left, and Chu Yi did not appoint several other commanders, so now there are tens of thousands of Tengxiang Four Guards Battalion, but only Han Kun is in charge.

When Han Kun, who was dressed in military uniform, saw the Empress Dowager Zhang sitting there, Han Kun couldn't help but be stunned, and after reacting, he hurriedly knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "The commander of the four guard battalions of Chen Tengxiang made Han Kun visit the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager Jin'an!" ”

Empress Dowager Zhang bowed, motioned for Han Kun to get up, and then informed Han Kun of the news of the disappearance of the Son of Heaven, stared at Han Kun and said, "Han Qing's family, can the mourning family trust you......"

"Poof!"

Han Kun bowed to the ground and said respectfully: "The minister swears allegiance to Your Majesty!" ”

Seeing Han Kun's reaction, Empress Dowager Zhang showed a little satisfaction on her face, and said with a solemn expression: "Han Qing's family, the mourning family ordered you to sit in the Tengxiang Fourth Guard Battalion, and the soldiers of the whole battalion will not be disarmed, unless there is a mourning decree or Your Majesty's will, no one's will can be obeyed." ”

Han Kun kowtowed and said solemnly: "The minister respectfully obeys the decree of the Queen Mother!" ”

Seeing Han Kun leaving, Empress Dowager Zhang breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and then said to the attendant beside her: "Summons Hu Yi to see the mourning family!" ”

With Hu Yi's cultivation, it is not said that he does not rest all night, even if he does not rest for a few days and nights, he can also be energetic, but at this time, Hu Yi is tired, his eyes are red, and he can see that the fire in the Qianqing Palace and the inexplicable disappearance of the Son of Heaven have caused a great impact on Hu Yi.

Walking into the main hall, Hu Yi bowed down to His Royal Highness and said respectfully: "Sinner Hu Yi, meet the Queen Mother!" ”

Seeing Hu Yi, Empress Dowager Zhang couldn't help but feel angry in her heart, but she didn't forget Jiao Fang's words, this Forbidden City can't be chaotic, except for Hu Yi, she doesn't know who to believe for a while, if it is really because of Hu Yi's dereliction of duty and taking the position of the commander of the forbidden army and handing it over to them, once the trust is not human, it will be a great disaster.
