(Thanks to thekingli and Ye Shuo for the monthly pass) Chapter 193

In the Fengtian Palace, on the high throne, Zhengde is sitting in danger, today Zhengde is wearing a very grand dress, a fair-skinned little face under the crown of Tongtian is extremely serious, and the silk robe is slightly ill-fitting on the thin body.

The ministers who stepped into the main hall also felt a little surprised, the crown of Tongtian and the silk robe were originally worn on occasions such as sacrificing heaven and earth and worshiping the temple, and it was a bit nondescript to wear this kind of clothes in the early dynasty, Zhang Sheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, looked a little displeased, and looked at Liu Jin, who was standing under the steps of the dragon seat, and complained in his heart that Liu Jin actually wore the emperor's clothes and accessories wrong.

The ministers of civil and military affairs stood in line according to the rules, and after kneeling and saluting, the hall suddenly fell silent, and the sharp voice of the eunuch Wang Yue, who was standing on the side of the dragon case, sounded.

"The emperor is in the court, there is a book to play, and there is nothing to retreat from."

Of course, this is an idiomatic term, a huge Ming Dynasty, I don't know how many things happen every day, Hongzhi reigned and even the morning and evening dynasties were not enough to make a platform to summon, it can be seen that there are many affairs.

Soon, someone stepped forward and said, "The old minister has a play." ”

Zhengde raised his hand, only to see the British Gong Zhang Mao come out and play: "The minister Zhang Mao has played, the weather is autumn, this year's regimental camp winter clothes need to be replaced, some weapons are rusted and need to be replaced, and the minister asks the emperor to order it to be replaced; In addition, the emperor has been on the board for more than three months, and the soldiers in the camp are looking forward to the emperor's visit in person day and night, and the old ministers want to ask the emperor to review the Beijing camp on a day in September, so as to boost the morale of our Beijing camp and show the emperor's grace. ”

Zhengde said: "The matter of changing clothes is applied by the British public in accordance with the regulations, and the military department will handle it together with the local guards, and the money and silver will be allocated by the household department. ”

Liu Daxia, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Han Wen, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, all came out and said: "The ministers obey the order." "I can't help but complain that Zhang Mao didn't have anything to do, this kind of thing doesn't need to be asked at all, every year the change of clothes and weapons is solved by internal coordination, why did he need to be verbose in the palace, Zhang Mao is this virtue, he likes to show his face in the palace when he has nothing to do, for fear that the emperor will not know that there is a British prince of the Admiral Regiment Battalion.

"Review the matter of the regimental camp, and make arrangements in September, I have written it down." Zhengde smiled.

Zhang Mao kowtowed contentedly and retreated, playing every day, he didn't care how big the matter was, he just needed to mix a familiar face and a sense of existence.

Next, the civil and military officials have their own discussions, all of which are where the drought, where the chaos, where the auspicious rui appears and other affairs, whether it is big or not, whether it is small or small, Zhengde listened to this, his heart was a little bored, his fingers unconsciously rubbed on a bead on the armrest of the dragon seat, and his brows were furrowed.

Liu Jin's face was anxious, and his eyes looked outside the hall from time to time over the ministers, but he didn't see Gao Feng, who was sent to deliver the news outside the hall, it seemed that Song Nan and they hadn't arrived at Daming Gate yet, otherwise Gao Feng would definitely send a signal outside the hall when he got the news, and he could also immediately let Xu Zhi start to attack Wang Yue and Fan Heng.

After the mess was played, the hall was quiet again, Wang Yue glanced at Li Dongyang in the first row of his left hand, and said, "Do you have nothing to do?" Scholar Lee, is there anything you want to play? ”

Li Dongyang cleared his throat and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers have a discussion." ”

Zhengde smiled and said, "Please speak." ”

Li Dongyang came out and said: "The emperor has not participated in the banquet day for two months, and the banquet day is the rule set by the ancestor, although the emperor is busy with affairs, but how can the rules of the ancestors be abolished suddenly?" ”

Zhengde was a little unhappy, and Li Dongyang came to mention this matter again, which was really annoying: "Why did I say that I talked about the abolition of the scripture feast?" I will participate, but I am very busy, I really can't spare time, I will participate as soon as I have time, Li Shoufu rest assured. ”

"Isn't the emperor free? The emperor has time to see the leopard, to play riding and shooting, to sing and watch dancing, to visit the West Garden, and to go boating in the Taiye Pond, but he is really busy. Xie Qian, a member of the Cabinet University, heard in a deep voice.

The ministers secretly smacked their tongues, they were really thankful for the cannon, and they spoke completely ruthlessly.

Zhengde was extremely embarrassed, blushing and speechless, he had never experienced such a battle, and he had been reprimanded by the minister in private, but it was the first time that he had been reprimanded in front of the ministers like this, Wang Yue and Fan Heng glanced at each other, with a smile on their faces.

Seeing that Zhengde was embarrassed, Liu Jin shouted: "Scholar Xie, how can you talk to the emperor like this?" ”

Xie Qian glanced at Liu Jin coldly and said, "Why can't your subordinates make remarks?" The emperor's frolicking is not in the emperor, the fault is on you Liu Jin, and you still have the face to speak. ”

Liu Jin was taken aback and sneered: "Scholar, our family is just serving the emperor's daily life, how can we offend you again Scholar Xie?" ”

Li Dongyang said slowly: "The culprit is you, before the emperor ascended the throne, you made a miasma of smoke in the East Palace, and took the emperor out of the palace to frolic without permission, and now that the emperor is on the throne, as the lord of the world, you are still the same, instigating the emperor to have fun and frolic, what kind of leopard house to build, and raising tigers and leopards in the palace; What shops are built in the palace, what brothels are built, it is you minions who have brought the emperor to ruin, who is at fault if you are not at fault? ”

Liu Jin was shocked: "You ...... You're spewing blood. ”

Hubu Shangshu Han Wen shouted: "Bah, can I wait for the court officials to frame you?" The facts you did are intolerable, and a good emperor has been instigated by a villain like you, who has ever done it? ”

Zhengde's face turned pale, and the things he did in the palace were exposed by the ministers in public, and he was both angry and ashamed in his heart, seeing that the ministers were headed by Li Dongyang, and the cabinet ministers and civil officials of various ministries fired at Liu Jin like cannons, and in the face of Liu Jin's begging gaze, Zhengde didn't dare to speak for him.

"Your Majesty, the ministers and others jointly held a joint meeting today, asking the emperor to stay away from the traitors of the ministers, abandon the frolic, for the sake of the society of the Ming Dynasty, please follow the example of the emperor, work hard, and do not let the people of the world and thousands of subjects disappointed."

The other officials in the palace only realized at this time that all this that seemed to happen by accident was actually a well-designed plan, and the ministers were ready to collectively make efforts to bring down Liu Jin today.

Of course, this is a game between the Wenchen and the new emperor, and whoever can hold it in the future will look at the battle in the palace today, but when it comes to the dispute in the inner court, it also shows that Wang Yue and others in the inner court have reached some kind of cooperation agreement with the civil ministers, and the civil officials have developed from semi-openly supporting Wang Yue Fan Heng to supporting it with practical actions.

The officials who did not do this remained silent, silence was golden at this time, and it was unwise to easily fall to either side, everyone was watching Zhengde's reaction, and they all knew that the emperor was biased towards Liu Jin, but at this time, the crowd was excited, and what method would the emperor use to deal with it.

Wang Yue took the fold and presented it, but Zhengde didn't take it at all, he knew what was written on it, the ministers below who should have written it had already said, and it was more detailed than the fold, and at this moment he understood why his father was often sad when he was alive, and in the face of such a courtier's aggressiveness and outspokenness, sometimes the emperor would be incomplete and dignified in front of them.

"This ...... Let's think about this matter and then talk about it, you will go back to the list first, and I will know the way. "Zhengde once again sacrificed the 'drag' word trick, it was impossible to fulfill their intentions, but he couldn't openly oppose it, Song Nan taught him the word procrastination trick should be the best way at this time.

"Your Majesty, please allow your subordinates to play, if you don't get rid of the traitors, the society will be uneasy." Li Dongyang suddenly lifted his official robe and knelt on the ground, and then the cabinet scholars knelt down, and the officials of the six ministries also knelt down, and suddenly His Royal Highness knelt down in a large area.

……

Outside the Daming Gate, Li Daniu and Zheng Da arrived with a small number of plainclothes flags and prisoners and stolen goods such as gold and silver for the captured prisoners and land deeds, the Daming Gate Square was empty, in a corner close to the Daming Gate City Tower, dozens of carriages and dozens of horses gathered together, the coachman and the servants who followed sat on the chariot and dozed off, and the master they were serving was on the Fengtian Temple at the moment.

In the south corner of the square, Li Daniu and Zheng Da met, and the two talked in a low voice while looking nervously at the situation in the square.

Zheng Dadao: "What about Song Qianhu? ”

Li Daniu looked around anxiously and said: "I don't know the road, I left halfway, and I heard rumors from the people on the way that there was a large-scale fight on the side of the Mingyue Bridge in Sichengfang, and I am afraid that the fans were there to intercept it." ”

Zheng Da said worriedly: "Troublesome, I don't know what to do, Ma Degang and my people were forced to go to Fucaifang, I'm afraid we will have to fight, this time we are Zhengnanfang Jinyi Wei Yamen I'm afraid that a lot of brothers will die, damn it." ”

Li Daniu said: "That's also a helpless thing, fortunately, Song Qianhu estimated this, otherwise it would be even worse, and the errand of the dead person would not be able to be done." ”

Zheng Da nodded and said, "What you said is, let's just wait here?" ”

Li Daniu said: "What if you don't wait? You and I are not qualified to enter the palace, Song Qianhu is not here, we can't show up. ”

There was a whining sound of a prisoner blocking his mouth in the carriage, Zheng Da was anxious, and when he opened the car door, he was beaten with an old fist, which almost knocked a struggling prisoner unconscious, and turned around to find Li Da Niu Mao under the wall and stretched his neck from the east street entrance.

"Is that Song Qianhu?" Li Daniu pointed to the two people who limped at the corner of the street and asked.

Zheng Da's eyesight is very good, he squinted his eyes and looked carefully, and said happily: "It's Song Qianhu, it seems to be colored, and his body is also wet, and the one next to him is Miss Ye." ”

The two were overjoyed, and hurriedly took someone to answer, only to see that Song Nan had blood on his arm, his hair was wet and messy, and there were aquatic plants hanging on his body, and Ye Fanggu was also a mess on his body, and the two were obviously exhausted and extremely exhausted.

When Song Nan saw Li Daniu and Zheng Da and the carriage behind him, his heart was greatly relaxed, and he hurriedly said: "Come with me quickly, let's enter the palace quickly." ”

Everyone also didn't care to hide their tracks, a group of people hugged the carriage and walked up to the square, and when they reached the middle of the square, they heard the roar of the horses' hooves behind them, and everyone looked back in amazement, only to see dozens of horsemen galloping on Damingmen Street, and someone shouted: "It's them, stop them." ”

Song Nan shouted: "Come into the palace, the fans are chasing after you." ”
