Emperor Yongchang was going to the harem to rest, and the eunuch on duty brought out the concubine's number plate, and Emperor Yongchang didn't look at it, so he waved his hand and said, "Go to the concubine." ”

Some of the accompanying eunuchs lowered their heads and gritted their teeth secretly, the emperor is in a bad mood and wants to go to Concubine Mei, and if he is in a good mood, he will also go to Concubine Mei, they took bribes from the women of the harem, when will they be able to do things for those people?

Hearing that the emperor went to Concubine Mei's palace again, Concubine Zheng Xian was so angry that she smashed all the teacups and teapots in her hand. Over the years, Dong Jincai has treated her well, and even put an old Hanlin's only daughter Wang Shufen into the palace and be her palace maid, this Wang Shufen has been obsessed with books since she was a child, and the ink in her stomach is no less than her Hanlin father, with Wang Shufen's careful teaching, her son, the fourth prince Qian Haoyao, has been smarter than Mei Guifei's sons since he was a child, Concubine Zheng Xian remembers very clearly that when she was two and a half years old, her son recited the poem "Min Nong" to the emperor inarticulately, and Emperor Yongchang looked surprised, she firmly believed that the emperor was very interested in her son, is far better than Mei Guifei's sons, every time the emperor and Qian Haoyao are together, they are always surprised and surprised, and they appreciate it.

Qian Haojin will be ten years old soon, more and more intelligent and studious, better than the third prince Qian Haojin of the same age as him, I don't know how many times stronger, the fourth prince has begun to learn the Analects, Qian Haojin is still enlightened, what do you read every day "Zengguang Xianwen" and "Kindergarten Qionglin", but Qian Haojin is very active, and learned boxing and kicking with the martial artist, which is more powerful than her son in this regard, Concubine Zheng Xianfei thinks that Mei Guifei is a barbarian and savage girl who came out of the ravine, where will she educate any children, and she can't compare with a woman who grew up in a scholarly family. However, she didn't know what kind of demon trick Mei Guifei used, firmly tied the emperor to her side, and the program carefully prepared by herself and her son had no chance to perform.

In fact, Emperor Yongchang is too sleepy, and when he goes to other women, there will inevitably be an entanglement, he wants to sleep, but those women don't allow it. They had a chance, and they couldn't wait to squeeze him dry.

The emperor is getting older and older, if the women in the harem don't hurry up and give birth to a boy and half a girl, no matter how much they are favored now, they will have to be sent to An Optimistic to practice in the future.

Only Concubine Mei, three men and one woman, has a stable position in the harem, she really takes the emperor as her husband, considerate of his hard work, and always finds ways to make him happy and rest, such as arranging eunuchs to massage the emperor to relieve fatigue, and will also tell some interesting stories about the little daughter, so that Emperor Yongchang smiles happily.

Sure enough, this time Mei Guifei did not disappoint the emperor, she didn't know where to learn a steam bath, commanded a few eunuchs and palace maids, and served the emperor well, Emperor Yongchang was overworked, it was not easy to sleep, this time he was still in the bathhouse, he slept like thunder, and the eunuch who was waiting carefully wiped him clean, carried him out, and covered it with a thin quilt.

As soon as Emperor Yongchang woke up, it was time for the early dynasty, he felt refreshed and energetic, and couldn't help but praise Mei Guifei with a sweet kiss: "I'll come over in the next court, you can prepare lunch, the prince and princess of the South China Sea have taught you some new dishes, just come up." ”

"Yes!" Concubine Mei is also in her forties now, and her behavior is more dignified and elegant, she squatted down to salute and send the emperor out.

Thinking of the troublesome court, there was a good result today, and Emperor Yongchang's mood was very comfortable.

Dong Jincai was in the courtroom, and a group of ministers were waiting for the eunuchs to pass the letter, he arranged for the people, and he had been pressed by the emperor for three days, worried that Emperor Yongchang would repeat his old tricks, he arranged for more people to impeach the new deal today, he knew that this time he was at odds with the emperor's thoughts, contrary to his consistent style of welcoming and patting horses, but he thought that no matter how powerful the emperor was, he was also sitting on the heads of many courtiers, and he was also afraid of farts? The seat under the thigh was unstable: "After waiting for this matter, I will press Shen Mingyun down, and I am looking for something to make the emperor stutter well." Dong Jincai has always done this, tried everything, and was not worried that the emperor would target him, in the past few years, Dong Jincai has gone too smoothly and is a little carried away.

After a while, a eunuch announced that the emperor was about to arrive, the ministers hurriedly tidied up their clothes, Yuguan walked into the court, and Emperor Yongchang walked in, he glanced at Qian Jun meaningfully, and saw the surprised look on his cousin's face, and couldn't help but feel a little proud - his cousin hadn't sent someone to investigate, and his courtiers sent the information he wanted, what does this mean? He governs well, and there are many virtuous ministers under him.

In fact, it was all quietly arranged by Qian Jun, otherwise, Dong Jin was in charge of the government, how could such a twist and turn be sent smoothly?

This time, Emperor Yongchang changed the habit of listening to the government first, but asked the eunuch who was waiting to read a few folds, and the first one was Jiang Guomin's.

Dong Jincai stood with his head down, his eyes glanced at Shen Mingyun, and his heart was about to bloom, as long as the new deal failed, the emperor would inevitably dislike Shen Mingyun, without this opponent, who would dare to compete with him in this court?

After reading Jiang Guomin's recital, many ministers came out to express their attitudes, almost all of them supported Jiang Guomin and opposed the new policy, and Emperor Yongchang's peaceful mentality set off a storm again, and he waved his hand angrily to quiet down the court: "There is also an excerpt here, which is about Lord Jiang, you can listen to it first." ”

Dong Jincai thought that even if the emperor was unhappy, he couldn't play any tricks, besides, the emperor wanted everyone to listen to the music, and no one dared to say no, so he calmly bowed his head and put on a deferential appearance, just waiting for the emperor to be tired of playing, and then he would make a move. Who knew that after listening to it sentence by sentence, his back was almost wet with cold sweat - why did someone suddenly impeach Jiang Guomin for corruption? What kind of person is he, he can naturally hear it, on the impeachment fold, even if there are discrepancies in the facts listed, it will not be too bad, he regrets it very much, he knew that Jiang Guomin was such a person, no matter what, he would not let him come out, the emperor is now taking him under the knife, and the ministers who follow the trend of impeachment will inevitably be in danger, and the emperor can easily calm down the turmoil he instigated, and it has also opened up the situation for the Jiangnan New Deal.

What to do? Dong Jincai was so anxious, thinking desperately in his head, trying to find a way to solve it, but unfortunately his ability was just a cheeky master, but he didn't have much urgency, Emperor Yongchang acted according to the plot he thought, passed all the way, and soon handed Jiang Guomin to Dali Temple.

Dong Jin saw that if he didn't save it, the people on his side would be doomed to failure, so he gritted his teeth and went out of class: "Your Majesty, it's a matter of the imperial court, you can't just let the Dali Temple family interrogate, and then you should send someone to observe, Weichen is willing to go, and ask the emperor for permission." ”

Emperor Yongchang nodded: "Dong Aiqing's words are very true, so let's do it, the major affairs of the court are inseparable from you, let the Prince of Nanhai go to observe the interrogation." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Qian Jun agreed.

How can Dong Jincai be willing to let his nemesis go to Dali Temple? In that case, it is better not to send someone, he immediately reminded the emperor: "The prince of the South China Sea has a heavy filial piety, and today he is still the emperor's special order to go to court." ”

Emperor Yongchang succeeded to the time of employing people, where does he care about filial piety or not, he said to Dong Jincai: "I plan to issue an edict to win affection, so that the prince of Nanhai will immediately go to the court every day." ”

Qian Jun hurriedly refused: "Your Majesty, this is not necessary, Weichen will go to Dali Temple, and the supervisor will find out the case clearly, this matter is over, and Weichen will continue to be filial piety for his father." ”

Emperor Yongchang nodded: "That's fine." Prince Nanhai, we must make things clear, don't wronged a loyal minister, and don't let go of a corrupt official. ”

Dong Jincai almost fainted, with this old opponent here, Jiang Guomin can't run away from prison, maybe he can't even save his life, if he can't cover it, who will follow him in the court?

"Your Majesty—" Dong Jin came out of work and wanted to fight again, but Emperor Yongchang waved his hand to stop him.

The two little eunuchs sent a large stack of folds, and Emperor Yongchang pointed out: "These folds are the same as Jiang Guomin, impeaching the New Deal, I doubt that their families have the same fertile land as Jiang Guomin, although the New Deal is only implemented in Jiangnan, but it will always be rolled out across the country, these people are taking precautions." ”

All those who followed Dong Jin to the fold were so frightened that they trembled, their faces were like ashes, and they broke out in a cold sweat one by one, and they were suddenly silent in the court.

Qian Jun came out of class: "Your Majesty, these folds should be well preserved, and after the Dali Temple has checked Jiang Guomin, then touch the family background of these people......"

Before Qian Jun finished speaking, he heard a grunt, and an official behind him fell to the ground on all fours, it was Liu Lin.

Emperor Yongchang was unhappy and ordered the eunuch who was standing on duty to go and ask for a doctor quickly, and then let Shen Mingyun preside over the follow-up affairs. The imperial doctor came quickly, carefully checked the pulse, and then shook his head: "This is a stroke." ”

Most of the officials in the main hall had sadness and regret on their faces, and only a few supported Shen Mingyun, who couldn't help but straighten their beards and couldn't suppress the joy in their hearts. can be a second- or third-grade member of the imperial court, and the family is rich and extravagant, which can be clean? As long as you check carefully, you can't check one by one? In the next few days, Qian Jun cooperated with Emperor Yongchang, Liu Lin, Wang Chang and several other Dong Jincai's ironcores entered Dali Temple one after another, and the officials who attacked the new deal in the court were silent, and when they saw Shen Mingyun's eyes, they all dodged and avoided it, and they all thought that this was the handwriting of Shen Dashoufu. Dong Jincai prepared for two months of trouble, just shot by the emperor mercilessly cut off his fingers, the backbone of his faction, three people were imprisoned, two were raided, and the rest had ghosts in their hearts, and they all tried to let their families deal with those farms, and some people were too worried, they couldn't sleep at night, and they held on for a few days, and simply folded the bones of begging, that is, to tell the old man to return to his hometown, and wanted to resign, Emperor Yongchang did not hesitate to approve, for a while, those who followed Dong Jincai were silent one by one in the court, lest they be noticed by their colleagues, and turned out of their families to impeach.
