Chapter 35 True and False Princess Thirty-Five
Qin Tai and his wife bid farewell to Feng Bao at the gate of the palace, because Empress Dowager Li had already issued an expulsion order and did not allow Qin Tai and his wife to stay in the capital. Feng Bao couldn't send Qin Tai out of the capital anymore, so Qin Tai and his wife had to say goodbye to Feng Bao here. Leaving this time, Feng Baohe didn't know if there was any possibility of seeing each other again, and Feng Bao and Qin Tai could no longer communicate by letter, so Qin Tai and Feng Bao both felt a little reluctant. Feng Bao wanted to remind Qin Tai to take good care of his godson Ruyi, but Feng Bao couldn't say it, and he was even more worried about exposing his relationship with Ruyi. Qin Tai has already promised that in a few years, Ruyi will grow up, and the bar Ruyi will send it to Feng Bao to discipline him personally, and Ruyi will be Feng Bao's child at that time, and he will teach Feng Bao how he likes. Feng Bao believed in the appointment of Qin Tai and his wife, and was even more assured of their excellent bloodline, he had imagined his son Ruyi in his dreams more than once, and he wanted to see Ruyi one day earlier.
Feng Bao secretly used sign language to tell Qin Tai and his wife that Zhang Juzheng's good days were over. This kind of sign language is different from the sign language of the deaf and mute, and it belongs to the internal sign language of Jinyiwei, and even Jinyiwei people can't understand the meaning. After Feng Baobao raised Qin Tai and his wife into Jinyiwei, Zhan Xiaoxiao used the original Jinyiwei sign language to invent this set of sign language that only his own people know novice language, and Feng Bao was the only outsider who could know this sign language. Their communication is not only safe but also does not arouse suspicion, and there is no need to worry about being informed about sign language information.
The reason why the little emperor agreed to Empress Dowager Li's decision and turned this case into a small matter was because the little emperor had the handle of Zhang Juzheng. The little emperor agreed to make concessions in this case and let Empress Dowager Li2 decide the life and death of Concubine Zhang, Concubine Gong, and the children. However, it was required that Empress Dowager Li and Empress Wang should not interfere in her actions against Zhang Juzheng. The little emperor's attitude was very firm, his tone was also very stern, and his determination was even greater. For the first time, Empress Dowager Li and Feng Bao felt that the little emperor had escaped their control, and the little emperor was very white and tender. The little emperor's hatred for Zhang Juzheng can be said to be unbearable, and the little emperor would rather not have a wife, children, and a duel with Zhang Juzheng. The first is because Zhang Juzheng forced the little emperor too tightly, and the little emperor couldn't stand it anymore. The second is because the little emperor now has a trump card in his hand, and if he doesn't use this opportunity to deal with Zhang Juzheng, the little emperor will regret it for the rest of his life. In order not to completely turn his face with the little emperor, in order to let the little emperor really control the situation, Empress Dowager Li and Feng Bao had to stand on the side of the little emperor, after all, the little emperor is the master of a country, and Zhang Juzheng will have to hand over power sooner or later. Queen Wang also realized that Zhang Juzheng had given up on herself, and it was an unwise decision to oppose her mother-in-law and husband in order to protect a Zhang Juzheng, so Queen Wang decided to stand by and watch the matter. For the first time, the little emperor felt that this wife still had a certain consciousness in some major matters. This time, Feng Bao and Empress Dowager Li couldn't help Zhang Juzheng, so it was better for Qin Tai to leave the capital earlier.
Although Qin Tai has cut off his robe with Zhang Juzheng, he still regrets Zhang Juzheng's past. If Zhang Juzheng didn't grasp power so much, if the little emperor was a little more emotional, what a good pair of master and apprentice this should be. Now with their fighting methods, both the court and the royal family are in chaos, and more than ten years of hard work have not only been wasted but also made the court situation more complicated. Zhang Juzheng not only has to lose his reputation, but also affects his family and future generations, which is really more than worth the loss. It's only because Zhang Juzheng is not greedy enough and unwilling to follow the advice of his friend Qin Tai, and at the same time he won't have a good relationship with the little emperor. In fact, when the little emperor was a child, he was very attached to Zhang Juzheng, and even regarded Zhang Juzheng as his father. It's a pity that Zhang Juzheng was serious when he should be kind, and he didn't dare to really discipline the little emperor when he should be serious, so that the little emperor couldn't hate and hated this master and biggest political assistant. Later, as the little emperor grew up, the differences between the little emperor and Zhang Juzheng became bigger and bigger, and the little emperor even worked against Zhang Juzheng, which is what children in the rebellious period often do. Zhang Juzheng not only did not understand but also coerced the little emperor again and again, and this lack of understanding and guidance made the little emperor gradually hate Zhang Juzheng's discipline. In the end, under the provocation of a villain like Zhang Whale, the little emperor was completely in the team with Zhang Juzheng. The matter of Empress Wang deepened the contradiction between the little emperor and Zhang Juzheng. Zhang Juzheng chose a wife for the little emperor with his own morality and understanding, although it was for the good of the little emperor, but he did not take into account the feelings of the little emperor. If Zhang Juzheng, who is a teenager, is replaced, he will still not accept this style of wife. But Zhang Juzheng didn't understand and didn't want to pay attention to the little emperor's feelings, and the little emperor's infertile aunt took the initiative to discuss the reason with Zhang Juzheng. Every time Zhang Juzheng proposed a reasonable candidate, the little emperor would be unwilling, and even the Empress Dowager Li thought that her son the little emperor was working against Zhang Juzheng. In fact, the little emperor wanted to tell the queen mother and Mr. Zhang that he just wanted a lively, cute and sweet wife. Queen Wang was decided by Zhang Juzheng, and even the Empress Dowager Li felt that Zhang Juzheng was too domineering, but Zhang Juzheng felt that he was not wrong. This made the little emperor feel even more that Zhang Juzheng was disrespectful to him, and even a little bit of bullying himself.
Although the little emperor was a little hasty in dealing with some things, he didn't know that experience needed to be accumulated slowly, didn't Zhang Juzheng also grope out Dema step by step? But Zhang Juzheng felt that the little emperor was either messing around or not having enough political awareness. It is a bit too much to say that the little emperor is inexperienced, and it is also necessary to say that the little emperor is not suitable for dealing with military affairs, so it should not be said by the head of the cabinet if he does not give face to the little emperor. Zhang Juzheng, the teacher of the little emperor, did not pay attention to proportion, and of course the little emperor was unhappy. The little emperor has tried many times to persuade Zhang Juzheng to let him deal with some things and try it. But Zhang Juzheng was either worried that the little emperor would not do well, or he felt that now was not the opportunity for the little emperor, so sometimes he simply refused.
Zhang Juzheng did this kind of thing that did not give face to the little emperor more than once, but no less than 100 times for three consecutive years, which greatly damaged the relationship between Zhang Juzheng and the little emperor, and even the Empress Dowager Li did not dare to treat the little emperor like this. Because Zhang Juzheng, the head of the cabinet, did not give face to the little emperor, the civil and military officials also began to look down on the little emperor. One by one, the ministers and Zhang Juzheng bullied the little emperor together. This is the little emperor's own words, he feels that the ministers of the court and the central government look down on him as an emperor, and Zhang Juzheng is the real emperor of the Ming Dynasty. The Empress Dowager Li, who heard this kind of conclusion from the mouth of the little emperor for the first time, knew that the little emperor was already inseparable from Zhang Juzheng. From the perspective of personal feelings and royal interests, Empress Dowager Li must stand on the side of her son, the little emperor. However, Empress Dowager Li was worried that the little emperor would lose control of the court by dealing with Zhang Juzheng too early, so the Empress Dowager Li asked the little emperor to be patient for a while.
Now that the little emperor can't bear it anymore, he has decided to do something to Zhang Juzheng, and the Empress Dowager Li will definitely help her son the little emperor. Only when the royal opinion is unified, can it go head-to-head with a foreign minister like Zhang Juzheng. As a royal minion, Feng Bao must make a clear relationship with Zhang Juzheng as soon as possible, otherwise the first person the little emperor will deal with is not Zhang Juzheng, but her Feng Bao. Feng Bao is a servant of the royal family, and everything is given by the royal family. Feng Bao, who left the royal family, is not even a dog, so Feng Bao must have the same heart with the Empress Dowager Li and the little emperor. Although Feng Bao felt sorry for Zhang Juzheng in her heart, she couldn't help but do it, and she couldn't hesitate at all from time to time, otherwise the little emperor and Empress Dowager Li would doubt Feng Bao's loyalty to her master. Feng Bao didn't dare to inform Zhang Juzheng, but hoped that Qin Tai would not get involved, and was even more worried that because of the relationship between Qin Tai and his wife, his godson Ruyi would also become an innocent criminal. This was the most daring decision Feng Bao made, Feng Bao had always been very careful and afraid that someone would know that Feng Bao had betrayed the information. Fortunately, no one paid attention to the sign language conversation between Feng Bao and Qin Tai, and after telling the information, Feng Bao immediately urged Qin Tai and his wife to leave the capital immediately, hoping that there would be a chance to meet in the future.
