Early the next morning, Zhu Youzhen, who was riding in a soft luan, marched in the Forbidden City.

"You still have to walk more, otherwise you will put aside the physical fitness of the old Zhu family, and you won't be able to wait until the country dies to estimate your body." Zhu Youzhen was introspecting and half-lying down comfortably.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the Wenhua Palace, Xu Yingyuan reported next to him: "Your Majesty, the British Duke has been waiting for a long time. ”

Seeing Zhang Weixian, who was bowing, Zhu Youzhen smiled. Whether it is in the Apocalypse Palace or in the palace by himself, he can be regarded as the one who is both capable and loyal in the clan. Stretched out his hand and helped him, "Uncle Guo doesn't need to be polite." The imperial sister-in-law has been unwell for the past few days, can the uncle know? ”

Zhang Weixian stood up, looked at the young emperor in front of him, was stunned, stared at his eyes and said, "Niangniang is sick?" After the emperor ascended the throne, the minister did not enter the palace, and the mother did not have a decree, and the minister did not know. ”

"Yesterday, someone from Changchun Palace reported that the imperial sister-in-law was sick. It just so happened that I wanted to talk to you in the Wenhua Palace, but since I came early, why don't you go and see it with me? After saying that, he turned around and left.

Xu Yingyuan was on the side, a little confused, "Isn't it the British duke summoned by the emperor?" I didn't see any news from Changchun Palace yesterday? How come I don't know anything? ”

Not far away, the group was about to arrive at the gate of Changchun Palace.

Zhu Youzhen said: "Xu Yingyuan, you restrain the others to wait here. If the mother is unwell, there is no need to sign up to make a fuss, so as not to upset the mother. ”

Xu Yingyuan responded and stood with his hands down, inevitably muttering a little in his heart. Zhu Youzhen didn't look at him, and entered Changchun Palace with Zhang Weixian.

The two didn't go far, and Empress Yi'an, who learned the news, greeted her and blessed Zhu Youzhen. Zhang Weixian hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it, but he also tilted his neck to look at Queen Zhang.

Empress Zhang smiled and said to Zhu Youzhen: "The emperor has always been okay? There is no hurry, the body and bones are still the most important. ”

"That's what the imperial sister-in-law said." Zhu Youzhen looked at this heroic woman who was better than many men. Entering the palace at the age of sixteen, in the years when Wei Zhongxian's arrogance was in full swing, this was the only person who could summon Wei Zhongxian and the Ke family into Changchun Palace, read Zhao Gao's biography in front of Wei Zhongxian, and scolded the two of them for being bloody.

This is also the reason why Zhu Youzhen met Zhang Weixian in Changchun Palace.

"The imperial sister-in-law has been okay lately?"

"Okay."

Yi An responded, looking at Zhang Weixian tilting his head and looking at himself, he couldn't help but feel a little strange, "What's wrong?" Do you sleep with a stiff neck? ”

"The British public is fine," Zhu Youzhen said.

"It's very hot in this palace, why don't you sit in the garden?"

The three of them sat down on a chair by the bamboo forest, and when the maid made tea and retreated, Zhu Youzhen took the dim sum handed by Yi'an, suddenly smiled, and said to Zhang Weixian: "I remember the night when the imperial sister-in-law sent you to summon me into the palace, I specially asked me not to eat the wine and food in the palace, for fear of being calculated, and if I can have today's situation, I will have to rely more on the imperial sister-in-law and the prince." ”

Hearing this, the British Duke was surprised: "The emperor's ascension to the throne and the rules of the clan, the emperor's will, and the ministers are not very clear about the turmoil in the matter." ”

Zhu Youzhen put down the snacks in his hand, "Otherwise, I will invite you to the imperial sister-in-law today." Now in this palace, I have to find a place to avoid people's eyes and ears. ”

Yi'an has been in the palace for a few years, but it is not surprising that the current situation in the palace is not surprising. After all, Wei Zhongxian and the others were involved in the Emperor of the Apocalypse, so she didn't want to ask, so she just sat silently next to her and drank tea.

Zhang Weixian knew that the emperor was here today to force him to make a statement.

"The minister agrees with the emperor's arrangement." The Zhang family is a rare princely family since the founding of the country, and naturally knows how to express its position.

Zhu Youzhen was not so serious, and said to Queen Yi'an easily with a teacup,

"Wei Zhongxian sent four beauties yesterday, the cabinet sent a protégé of Xu Guangqi who resigned and returned home, Sun Yuanhua, and the military department Donglin also sent a protégé of Han Ying, Yuan Chonghuan, to me."

"I'm not tofu, you can also order it, and I will also order it, all of them should be treated as a child."

Yi An knew how to deal with a creature like the emperor, and if he didn't reply, he just covered his mouth with his hand and chuckled.

Zhu Youzhen also smiled self-deprecatingly, put down the teacup and stood up, gently twisting the leaves of a bamboo that had already withered and yellowed with his hand.

“………… You can't get rid of Wei Zhongxian yet............ On the one hand, he is all in the teeth, if he is forced to be in a hurry, it will inevitably break the kettle, which is not good for the palace, and in addition, Wei Zhongxian also has the use of Wei Zhongxian, and after clearing him, it is not necessarily our ...... who will benefit."

After speaking, he rubbed the leaves of the bamboo and muttered for a long time, showing a worried expression.

This time, Zhu Youzhen is performing for others to see, and on the other hand, he is really troubled. Why can others cross over and decide with one word, fall in love at first sight, and kill people if they don't agree with each other? And when you get to yourself, you are full of thorns and it is difficult?

At this time, Yi An also slowly got up and said softly:

"The emperor's concerns are all right, but the concubine thinks that it can't be too dark, so that the light and darkness in the palace of the court are inseparable, and it will inevitably be ............."

When Zhu Youzhen heard this, he suddenly realized that his cognition was limited there. In my previous life, when I discussed the dynamics of the late Ming Dynasty with netizens on the Internet, it was like playing a game, when I manipulated the protagonist, the other supporting characters were the same as NPCs, and entered the pause and waiting link, and now I am facing an opponent who has no shortage of money and power, and when I am ready, the other party is estimated to be in full swing.

"Imperial sister-in-law, please speak up, the fifth brother listens." Zhu Youzhen admired this woman in his heart.

When Yi An heard this, a trace of emotion welled up in his heart. "Since the emperor is self-relegated to his brother, he is not humble as a sister-in-law."

"If the courtiers think that the emperor is powerless and incompetent, and the officials are silent. Then, no matter what the situation, it will be difficult for you to clean up! ”

Hum, Zhu Youjian felt the sound of Huang Zhong Dalu banging in his ears. Standing still, he bowed to Yi An to express his gratitude.

Zhang Weixian also said slowly: "The emperor is right, and what the queen said is right. The minister suggested that the emperor might as well start from his side and start from his surroundings to ensure that he is invincible. ”

Looking at Zhang Weixian, gritting his teeth, Zhu Youzhen walked over, slapped Zhang Weixian's shoulder with his palm, and slapped the second bead in.

"I'm thinking about handing over this palace guard to my uncle."

"Commandment."

"The palace is nothing more than me, the imperial sister-in-law and the queen, the prince of the country has a charter, let's also clean up the dirt of this redundant staff."
