One hundred and forty-two, mercy

Hearing Zhu Qizhen's words, Jian Huaizhen said to Zhu Qizhen: "If the emperor can say this, the palace also feels extremely comforted. ”

When Zhu Qizhen heard this, he said to Jian Huaizhen: "Over the years, I have always felt that Xu Youzhen and others in the court are extremely reliable, but from the events of these days, my past views have been fallacious, Xu Youzhen was loyal to me before, but I didn't expect that after holding this high position, people's hearts are still difficult to satisfy, and from the current situation, these ministers who have sworn allegiance to me in the past are also a little unbearable. ”

Jian Huaizhen heard Zhu Qizhen's words, so he spoke to Zhu Qizhen: "The emperor doesn't want to say this, there are still many ministers in the court who are extremely loyal to the emperor." ”

When Zhu Qizhen heard this, he said to Jian Huaizhen: "I understand this in my heart, but from the current situation, things may not be as I wish. ”

Jian Huaizhen heard Zhu Qizhen's words, and understood in his heart that Zhu Qizhen's current state of mind may not be the same as before, so he said to Zhu Qizhen: "What the emperor said is very true. ”

After Zhu Qizhen listened to Jian Huaizhen's words, he shook his head at Jian Huaizhen and said, "Actually, I am extremely unbearable in my heart, after all, these ministers have made meritorious contributions to me, and I don't want to see them turn their backs on me. ”

Seeing Zhu Qizhen's statement, Jian Huaizhen was also cold in her heart, she didn't expect Zhu Qizhen to have such thoughts in her heart.

Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, this statement is very terrifying.

Jian Huaizhen's heart suddenly had such an idea.

After thinking for a moment, Jian Huaizhen said to Zhu Qizhen: "What the emperor said is not bad at all, and this is exactly what happened. If the ministers in the court cannot be of one heart and one mind with the emperor, it will inevitably bring a lot of trouble to the court. ”

"Yes, yes, what the eldest princess said is not bad at all, and I have the same idea in my heart." Zhu Qizhen said to Jian Huaizhen.

Hearing Zhu Qizhen's words, Jian Huaizhen spoke to Zhu Qizhen: "But please rest assured, the emperor is big, capable people and strange people, loyal ministers and filial sons emerge in endlessly, even if some ministers in the court are unusable, the emperor will not lack talents to help." ”

Seeing that Jian Huaizhen had such words of consolation, Zhu Qizhen nodded at Jian Huaizhen and said, "What the eldest princess said is not bad at all, I have such thoughts in my heart. ”

Jian Huaizhen heard that Zhu Qizhen completely understood what he meant, and said to Zhu Qizhen: "Your Majesty, although the situation between the DPRK and China is somewhat disordered, the national system is still the same, and the emperor's power is still the same. ”

Zhu Qizhen was quite surprised when he heard Jian Huaizhen's words, and he didn't understand what Jian Huaizhen meant by what he just said.

However, after thinking about it for a while, Zhu Qizhen understood in his heart what Jian Huaizhen said, the meaning of what Jian Huaizhen said was extremely simple, and from the current situation, his imperial aunt and grandmother also agreed with the reuse of Li Xian.

After understanding what the eldest princess meant, Zhu Qizhen was also relaxed in his heart, he knew in his heart that no matter what the situation was, the eldest princess would always stand on his side.

And with the power of the eldest princess in the court and the opposition, if she can do her best to help herself, then her throne can be safe.

Zhu Qizhen naturally understood in his heart that these things were excellent news for him.

What's more, she has taken a fancy to Li Xian, and from the current point of view, the eldest princess has no objection to her temptation to reuse Li Xian, but is happy to see it come to fruition.

Zhu Qizhen's suspense in his heart is not bad at all, and this is exactly what Jian Huaizhen means in his heart.

Jian Huaizhen naturally understood this meaning from Zhu Qizhen's heart, and naturally had the same idea with Zhu Qizhen in his heart.

Jian Huaizhen naturally meant the same thing in his heart, because if Li Xian could be reused by Zhu Qizhen, the person who rehabilitated Yu Qian would naturally have an eyebrow.

Jian Huaizhen didn't want to miss such a good opportunity.

Zhu Qizhen saw Jian Huaizhen's state like this, although he didn't know what to do, but he was also extremely happy in his heart, no matter what the situation was, as long as the eldest princess was on his side, it would be an extremely good thing for Jian Huaizhen.

Zhu Qizhen had such an idea in his heart, so he pointed to the meal on the table with ivory chopsticks, and then opened his mouth to Jian Huaizhen and said, "The eldest princess, please don't be polite, your own family, just eat with me." ”

Jian Huaizhen heard Zhu Qizhen say this, so Jian Huaizhen smiled at Zhu Qizhen and nodded slightly.

Then Jian Huaizhen picked up a piece of honey and juice according to his words, and then put it in his mouth.

"The aftertaste of the mouth, the taste of the honey juice fire side is really good." Jian Huaizhen opened his mouth to Zhu Qizhen and said.

When Zhu Qizhen heard this, he spoke to a supervising eunuch who was waiting in front of him: "The eldest princess said that the honey is not bad, and the juice is not bad, see who is in the hands of this dish in the imperial dining room, I want to reward it." ”

The eunuch who was waiting was naturally not lazy, and hurriedly spoke to Zhu Qizhen: "The slave has the order." ”

Jian Huaizhen, who was on the side, heard this, so he said to Zhu Qizhen: "Since the emperor has such a word, why let the emperor break the bank, this reward is still from the palace." ”

When Zhu Qizhen heard this, he hurriedly stopped him and said: "The eldest princess doesn't have to be polite to me, these days I have been taking care of everything, so that I neglected to greet her, and I haven't gone over to say hello to the eldest princess for a long time, it stands to reason that it should be me." ”

Seeing that Zhu Qizhen had such words, Jian Huaizhen opened his mouth and said: "The emperor doesn't have to be like this, the old body is still very healthy, and the emperor doesn't have to worry about it." ”

Seeing Jian Huaizhen's words, Zhu Qizhen opened his mouth and said: "The eldest princess's body is strong, and I understand this matter in my heart, but I haven't been able to go over to greet the eldest princess for a long time, because of my negligence." ”

Jian Huaizhen heard that Zhu Qizhen had such words, so he opened his mouth to Zhu Qizhen and said: "Since the emperor has such words, the palace doesn't know what to say, but no matter what the situation is, the emperor only needs to remember that your eldest princess must be helping you." ”

When Zhu Qizhen heard this, he opened his mouth to Jian Huaizhen and said: "Even if the eldest princess doesn't say this today, my heart is also transparent, the eldest princess likes me very much since I urinated, and I can have today, all because of the support of the eldest princess." ”

When Jian Huaizhen heard this, he opened his mouth to Zhu Qizhen and said: "The emperor is serious, but this palace doesn't have such a big ability. The emperor can have such a situation today, it is all created by the emperor himself, as far as the palace is concerned, although there is some work of beating the side drum. ”

Zhu Qizhen heard this, and said to Jian Huaizhen: "The eldest princess is very polite, I know in my heart that if it weren't for the eldest princess by her side over the years, I am afraid that what I want to do will not be so easy, and I may not be able to do many things." ”

When Jian Huaizhen heard Zhu Qizhen's words, his heart couldn't help but move, and he felt that he had worked hard for the Ming Dynasty all these years, and it was worth his life to be able to hear this from Zhu Qizhen's mouth today.

Jian Huaizhen bowed slightly to Zhu Qizhen and said: "The emperor can have such a loyal heart, this palace is very comforted, I hope that the emperor from now on, can always think of the subjects and people of the day, so that the palace is extremely relieved." ”

Seeing Jian Huaizhen's words, Zhu Qizhen hurriedly said to Jian Huaizhen: "The eldest princess's golden and jade words, I naturally keep them in my heart, and please rest assured that the eldest princess." ”

When Jian Huaizhen heard that Zhu Qizhen had said this, he also felt some comfort in his heart, so he opened his mouth to Zhu Qizhen and said: "If the emperor can really achieve such a realm of inner saints and outer kings, he will definitely be stable in the future, and it will be passed on for thousands of generations." ”

Zhu Qizhen heard Jian Huaizhen's words, so he opened his mouth to Jian Huaizhen and said: "What the eldest princess said is not bad at all, and I am also looking forward to being able to let the subjects of the whole world live and work in peace and contentment, and the day of Siyi Binfu will come as soon as possible." ”

After Jian Huaizhen heard this, he smiled at Zhu Qizhen and said, "The emperor's wish will be fulfilled one day." ”

Zhu Qizhen heard that Jian Huaizhen had this words of consolation, so he opened his mouth to Jian Huaizhen and said, "Since this is the case, I also understand this meaning in my heart. I am also looking forward to that day in my heart. ”

After the two continued to talk for a while, Jian Huaizhen opened his mouth to Zhu Qizhen and said: "Your Majesty, judging from the current situation, even if the situation in the court changes, I believe that the impact on the emperor is not very great, no matter what the situation is, things will always pass, and the emperor will definitely still be the emperor." ”

Zhu Qizhen heard Jian Huaizhen say this, so he opened his mouth to Jian Huaizhen and said: "I know in my heart that there will inevitably be some changes in the court situation, but I still hope that the impact of this change will not be too big, if it damages the foundation of the court, then things will be bad, and I also ask the emperor to keep a good eye on me, and don't let those untrustworthy and unrighteous ministers in the court make a mess of the court." ”

When Jian Huaizhen heard this, he opened his mouth to Zhu Qizhen and said: "What the emperor said is not bad at all, this palace also knows this in his heart, no matter what the situation is, this palace will always pay close attention to the situation in the imperial court, and will never sit back and watch the chaos of the court to the point of being out of control." ”

Zhu Qizhen heard Jian Huaizhen's words, so he opened his mouth to Jian Huaizhen and said: "What the eldest princess said is not bad at all, judging from the current situation, this is the case. That's what worries me day and night. ”

Jian Huaizhen stared at Zhu Qizhen, and then spoke: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that no matter what the situation is, this palace can guarantee this to the emperor." ”

Zhu Qizhen saw that Jian Huaizhen was willing to guarantee what he was most worried about, his spirit suddenly lifted, and then he opened his mouth to Jian Huaizhen and said, "Today, the eldest princess of the emperor has this guarantee, and I can be regarded as relieved." ”

When Jian Huaizhen heard this, he said to Zhu Qizhen: "Don't worry, the saint." ”

Zhu Qizhen patted the imperial table, and then said: "Okay, I am very happy today, I respectfully invite the eldest princess to eat at will." ”

When Jian Huaizhen heard this, he returned the salute to Zhu Qizhen and said, "The emperor doesn't have to be polite. ”

After deciding on this matter, Zhu Qizhen felt a lot more at ease, so he said to Jian Huaizhen: "Li Xian, I am very optimistic, although Li Xian has unintentionally offended me before, it is not enough that the matter has already passed, and I have not taken it to heart at all. I must reuse Li Xian in the future. ”

Jian Huaizhen heard Zhu Qizhen's words, so he saluted Zhu Qizhen and said: "The authority of the imperial court to employ people is all in charge, since the emperor wants to reuse Li Xian, he only needs to find a good time to issue an edict to the ministers." ”

Zhu Qizhen heard Jian Huaizhen's suggestion, so he smiled at Jian Huaizhen and said: "I also understand this matter very well in my heart, but as the eldest princess said, this matter should not be delayed early, and we still need to wait for an excellent opportunity to justifiably support Li Xian to ascend to the throne, and then reuse Li Xian." ”

Jian Huaizhen heard Zhu Qizhen's words, so he opened his mouth to Zhu Qizhen and said: "What the emperor said is not bad at all, and this palace also means this. Li Xian is certainly a capable minister of governing the country, but the sharp weapon of the country cannot be easily shown, and the emperor said that he would wait for the opportunity. And indeed it is. ”

Zhu Qizhen was very happy when he heard Jian Huaizhen's words.

Zhu Qizhen understood in his heart that Jian Huaizhen had said this, and obviously agreed with his own meaning.

As long as the eldest princess can agree with her intentions, Zhu Qizhen knows that she can let go of this matter.

Over the years, Zhu Qizhen has not wanted to promote the ministers of the court to compete with Xu Youzhen and Shi Heng and others, but when he picks and chooses, he always feels that there are not many ministers in the courtiers who can be really loyal, and among these ministers who are loyal to him, there are even fewer who can have enough talents to balance Xu Youzhen and Shi Heng.

They were dazzled by the picking, but they couldn't find a courtier who was agreeable to do it.

When Zhu Qizhen was a little desperate in his heart, Li Xian suddenly came to him.

Since Zhu Qizhen learned about Li Xian from Cao Jixiang's mouth, he knew in his heart that Li Xian, the courtier who almost cut off his head in the past, was enough.

At the moment, I just don't know how loyal Li Xian is to himself.

Zhu Qizhen really wanted to try Li Xian in his heart, but he also knew in his heart that if he wanted Li Xian to establish prestige among the ministers, he was afraid that this matter would not be an ordinary thing.

At present, Xu Youzhen and Shi Heng have the most powerful forces in the imperial court, and their friends and protΓ©gΓ©s are enemies of each other, which Xu Youzhen understands very well.

Not enough, even so, Zhu Qizhen knew in his heart that although his eldest princess rarely asked about political affairs, with the influence of the eldest princess, he was afraid that few people in the court could match her.

Zhu Qizhen had such thoughts in his heart.

But even if he thinks like this in his heart, Zhu Qizhen still needs to visit the eldest princess in a different way, after all, if he chooses someone carelessly, he will lead the wolf into the house.

Therefore, for Zhu Qizhen, this matter needs to be done with caution.

Only then did Zhu Qizhen say something to test the attitude of the eldest princess towards wanting to reuse Li Xian, and learned that Jian Huaizhen's attitude was the same.

After Zhu Qizhen found out Jian Huaizhen's attitude, he knew in his heart that he wanted to reuse Li Xian, but the eldest princess did not object, but warned herself to be cautious, not to let other ministers in the court be wary of Li Xian because she wanted to reuse Li Xian, and suppressed him everywhere, so that her original intention could not be achieved.

After Zhu Qizhen had such thoughts in his heart, he decided to think carefully about what kind of means to use so that some ministers in the court would not get in the way, so that he could reuse Li Xian smoothly.

However, Zhu Qizhen also knew in his heart that this matter was extremely difficult, and it was not an easy task.

After a long time, Zhu Qizhen opened his mouth to Jian Huaizhen and said: "The eldest princess, the eldest princess did not hesitate to break into the palace to fight with me for the sake of Lord Li Xian, what did the eldest princess fancy about Li Xian?" ”

Jian Huaizhen heard that Zhu Qizhen had this question, so he stopped and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, the matter is very clear, the emperor should still remember the dispute between Li Xian and Lord Yu Qianyu over who to welcome as emperor." ”

Zhu Qizhen heard Jian Huaizhen's words, so he opened his mouth to Jian Huaizhen and said: "I naturally remember this incident, Li Xian and Yu Qian each insisted on one end for this matter, and there was a lot of trouble. The Chinese military officials of the DPRK know everything. ”

Jian Huaizhen saw that Zhu Qizhen had such a statement, so he bowed his head slightly to Zhu Qizhen and said: "What the emperor said is not bad at all, this matter is exactly like this. The emperor, please think about it, Li Xian and Yu Qian had such a big politics back then, it can be said that there were great differences in political opinions, and it was not enough that after Yu Qian's death, Li Xian, who should have been Yu Qian's political enemy, was willing to give the emperor a table and ask the emperor to forgive the son of his former political enemy. This kind of uprightness is subjective to the emperor and the princes, and no one else can match it. ”

Zhu Qizhen heard Jian Huaizhen's words, thought about it carefully, and then opened his mouth to Jian Huaizhen and said: "What the eldest princess said is very true, I think about it today, Li Xian's original approach was really the act of a fair and upright gentleman. ”

When Jian Huaizhen heard this, he smiled at Zhu Qizhen and said: "What the emperor said is not bad at all, the eldest princess of the emperor back then was also because she saw that Lord Li Xian was able to do this, so she felt that Li Xian was a decent gentleman, and since Yu Qian had already left, the court and the central government must not lose such a virtuous person as Li Xian." ”

Zhu Qizhen asked this, and suddenly opened his mouth to Jian Huaizhen and said: "Listening to the words of the eldest princess, I also understand in my heart, Li Xian really deserves to be a very upright courtier, I almost killed Li Xian by mistake at the beginning, but fortunately, the eldest princess stopped me in time." ”

Jian Huaizhen heard Zhu Qizhen's words, so he nodded slightly at Zhu Qizhen and said: "At the beginning, the palace also had the intention of leaving a virtuous talent for the Ming Dynasty, so it fought with the emperor, hoping that the emperor would not blame him. ”

Seeing that Jian Huaizhen said this, Zhu Qizhen hurriedly said: "The eldest princess doesn't have to be too humble, if it wasn't for the eldest princess who came forward, I would almost kill a good person by mistake, judging from the current situation, things are only very good, but fortunately, the eldest princess took action to stop me who was angry, otherwise, the people of the family and country would definitely lose a good official, and it would also be my loss." ”

Jian Huaizhen heard Zhu Qizhen say this, so he said to Zhu Qizhen: "The emperor can say this, which shows that the emperor still has the heart of love and pity for talents. Once the king has the intention of loving talents and having compassion for talents, his family and country will not be defeated. ”
