Guo Ling used to be a beautiful woman, but now she is like a walking skeleton, where is there still half a point of posture to speak of.

Especially her mental state......

Sometimes he smirked at the people around him, and sometimes he rushed towards Ji Yu with a hideous face. One moment he hissed "Kill you", and the next he muttered "help me".

Ji Yu didn't know why a good person became like this, thinking that it was just a dispute between wives and concubines in the house.

She was not in the mood to meddle now, and she was about to order the two guards who were holding her to return her to the Zhongqin Uncle's Mansion, and after all, she was the female dependent of the Uncle's Mansion, so what was the matter with the guards sending her back? asked Bai Kou to call two maids from the house.

For the sake of her fellow villagers, she should have been brought into the mansion to wash up, but now that the situation is tense, Dabao's safety is at stake, and it is better to be cautious in everything, not to mention Guo Ling, who is not familiar with her, no matter how familiar she is, she can't easily bring her to the palace.

Ji Yu personally watched the people help Guo Ling into the carriage, but as soon as the front foot returned to Yuewei Courtyard, the two maids who gave it back came back.

"Girl, when the carriage arrived at the entrance of the East Market, the crazy woman suddenly made a fuss, and the slave and maid couldn't restrain her, so she jumped out of the car and fled."

Ji Yu didn't take it to heart. It's just that considering the morality, Bai Shao was sent to Zhongqinbo's Mansion to inform him.

As soon as Bai Shao took the order and left, Roland entered the courtyard.

"It's all arranged?" Ji Yu asked.

"Mr. Wen has already prepared it, and everything that should be explained will be explained according to the girl's instructions, just wait for tomorrow ......"

Ji Yu nodded.

Accompanied Dabao to lunch, the sister and brother went to the garden to walk Xiaoding, which was counted as food.

After coming back, Dabao went to take a nap, Xiaoding glanced at Ji Yu and honestly lay on the side of the bed.

Ji Yu now has the Luo family brothers and sisters by her side, although she also arranged another person for Dabao, but because she often went out after the year, Dabao stayed alone in the house and was lonely, so he asked Xiaoding to accompany him.

Coming out of the inner room, Teng Xiu waited at the door.

"I heard that there was a madwoman at the gate of the house before noon, and she frightened the girl?"

Ji Yu shook her head: "I wasn't too surprised." ”

It's just a little surprising.

Ji Yu didn't know the whole picture of other people's family affairs, and she didn't want to talk about it more, so she talked to him about other things.

"Zhang Xiang's illness is still not well?"

Since the cabinet was hollowed out, Zhang Xiang has complained of "illness" and has been recuperating at home.

It's good now, Emperor Wande hasn't been in court for a few months, and now even his backbone has fallen...... Although Zhang Xiang did not help Dabao when he was in the court.

However, like this kind of old fox, unless he is forced to have no choice, in the battle for imperial power, it is the best policy to protect himself. It's not wise to rush and bet on someone.

But Ji Yu always wondered if there was anything hidden behind Zhang Xiang's seemingly neutral position.

Maybe he once had a candidate in his heart, or even that candidate was Dabao, but after all, the situation forced him to choose to be a wallwatcher.

Regarding whether Zhang Xiang is from his side, Teng Xiu doesn't seem to know.

"In fact, Zhang Xiang is useless in the court, and the cabinet has been ...... Does Miss Ji know what a ticket is and what is a red? ”

This Ji Yu really knows.

During the period of Ming Xuanzong, in order to suppress the power of the cabinet, Ming Xuanzong specially set up a system of "vote drafting" and "approval of red".

The recitals from all over the country were first sent to the cabinet, and general matters were handled by the cabinet, and the more important affairs were first handled by the cabinet, which was written on a small piece of paper and pasted on the recital as a reference, and submitted to the emperor for approval, which was commonly known as "vote drafting".

After the official documents of each ministry are submitted to the celebrant for classification, the important ones will be selected and presented to the emperor. The emperor or personally approves, or the eunuch dictates the important points, and then the emperor's mantra can be implemented, and the eunuch Bingbi then uses the red pen to "approve the red".

Finally, it was returned to the cabinet and various ministries, and a formal edict was written according to the approval of the red for implementation.

However, most of the emperors in the middle and late Ming Dynasty were lazy with political affairs, and even skipped the "mantra", and the power of "criticizing red" fell directly into the hands of the eunuchs, which shows that the power of the eunuchs has overridden the power of the ministers.

But the premise for this is that the emperor is lazy.

Otherwise, the emperor can withdraw the right to review.

For example, Emperor Jiajing. He regarded the eunuchs as slaves, so the eunuchs of the ceremonial eunuchs and the eunuchs of the palm prints did not dare to do anything wrong.

Therefore, whether the proposed vote is good or bad depends on the ruler.

Under the diligent or effective supervision of the emperor, the eunuchs were indeed able to approve the red according to the emperor's wishes. But if he encounters a stupid and lazy emperor, he loses his effective supervision, which provides an opportunity for the eunuchs to mess with the government.

When Emperor Wande first ascended the throne, in order to prove that he was a qualified successor to imperial power, he worked hard to expand his territory, but he did not expect to lose again and again, so that the smoke of gunfire broke out and the people were struggling to survive.

However, in three years, Emperor Wande felt bored, and finally left the border troubles provoked by his several personal conquests, and rushed into the harem to give birth.

Later, he was discouraged by the accusations of the ministers, and directly changed from diligent administration to neglect administration, resulting in the gradual abolition of the government and the accumulation of twists and turns all over the country.

In the end, Zhang Xiang knelt at the gate of the palace for a day and a night, and Emperor Wande was willing to show up.

With the resolution of the border crisis and the throne secured, Emperor Wande at that time was no longer willing to force himself to be a diligent emperor.

He was tired of those endless big and small affairs, and he was even more disgusted with the days of going to the court before dawn, so he simply started the old system of voting for approval that had been abolished for nearly a hundred years.

All the folds are sent to the Cabinet, and the Cabinet member draws up the handling opinions, and then he examines whether they can be implemented.

Even so, Wandedi still thinks that the workload is too much. He is still busy cultivating immortals and refining pills, how can he have time?

Especially in the past year, for some reason, my energy has been declining year by year, and my body has begun to deteriorate, and I am a little powerless in the face of these trivialities.

simply handed it over to Fan Xian and asked him to "approve the red as appropriate".

This scale can be big or small.

At first, Fan Xian would dictate the content of the recital to Emperor Wande in the most concise way, and he was only responsible for writing the decisions of Emperor Wande on the cantata with a red pen.

Later, Emperor Wande couldn't go to court, completely ignored the state affairs and people's feelings, and didn't bother to listen to things such as twists and turns, so he directly let Fan Xian watch and do it himself, and don't bother him anymore.

Fan Xian was naturally happy to do so.

With the power of criticizing red in his hands, coupled with the emperor's favor, Fan Xian's power has grown step by step.

Under his leadership, the celebrant gradually overrode the cabinet, and he himself was also known as "the power of Yuanfu".

Thinking about the first two years, no matter how arrogant he was, he only dared to compete with Zhang Xiang secretly. Right now...... Zhang Xiang directly retreated.

Ji Yu didn't believe it.

She didn't believe it, Zhang Xiang didn't leave a backup move at all.

Leaving aside the question of who will stand and who will not stand, is he willing to give up his authority? It was given to the eunuchs whom these literati looked down upon the most.

"If it's Feng's palm print, it's ......"

The palm seal of the celebrant is the number one person among the eunuchs, and Feng En may still have jurisdiction over Fan Xianyi and two during his reign, after all, all the red clothes must be reviewed by him before they can be sealed. It's just that this procedure has long been in name only, at least since the sixth year of Wande, otherwise Feng En would not have taken risks and put all his life on Dabao.

I don't know if he has ever regretted being sent to the Salary Division now......

Since Feng En lost power, Teng Xiu could no longer enter the palace at will.

Now, he, and all of them, seem to be trapped in this palace, waiting for the final verdict of fate.
