Chapter 1258: Extra: Sunset in the Ming Palace (5)

After entering the palace, he first went to the Cining Palace where Concubine Zheng now lives to ask her for peace, and Zhu Changxun asked Jiang Shu and Hua'er to wait in the Cining Palace, and he went straight to the cabinet located in the southeast corner of the palace.

"From the middle of last night to this noon, seven or eight hours have passed, why is there no trace of the prince! A favorite concubine of Emperor Daxing is neither the biological mother of the prince nor the mother-in-law of the prince, why did she detain the prince and prevent him from coming out to accept the worship of the ministers?! He had just walked from the end of the cloister in the attic to the door of the Cabinet Chamber in the middle when he heard an angry male voice coming from inside.

Although due to the large number of people in the hall, it was impossible to see the appearance of the person who spoke, but just by this voice, he could also hear that it was Yang Lian, who was known for his uprightness.

And the favorite concubine of the Daxing Emperor in his mouth, he doesn't need to think about it, he also knows, it is Li Mianxiang, the ambitious Xili who wants to be the queen and the queen mother.

"There is a reason for this"

"There is a reason for this"

As soon as the words fell, several echoes of agreement immediately sounded in the hall.

Yang Lian paused, and then continued: "I suspect that there is an ulterior motive here!" ”

"yes"

"Right"

"Not bad"

Hearing this, there was another turmoil in the hall.

"In any case, this official still has to advise everyone to wait for the time being," Fang Congzhe, who is the head of the cabinet, waved his hand to signal everyone to calm down, "The new emperor is on the throne, and the stakes are very high, not only to bathe and fast, but also to bow and worship in front of the spirit of the first emperor, this is not something that can be completed in a while, please be calm and not impatient." ”

"Elder Fang Ge, at this very moment, don't be perfunctory to the ministers. In Xia Guan's opinion, an unexpected situation must have happened in the harem now, otherwise, it would be impossible to have no movement until now. Liu Yijing, who is also an auxiliary minister of the cabinet, frowned.

He entered the cabinet with Han Kuang when Emperor Wanli was still reigning two months ago, and before that, in the forty-fourth year of Wanli, Wu Daonan, the second assistant who entered the cabinet at the same time as the first assistant Fang Congzhe, has not come back because of the death of his father.

"It's not like that, it's not like that......"

Fang Congzhe hurriedly waved his hand again, wanting to justify, but was interrupted by Yang Lian lightly: "That's not the case, then dare to ask Lord Shoufu, now the prince is being held hostage by people with ill intentions, life and death are uncertain, we don't want to find a way to rescue us, but here we are talking about it, is this what you should do as a minister?" ”

After he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the people present: "If you have the guts, just follow Yang, today we are robbing, and we will also snatch the prince out!" ”

"Let's go!"

"Let's go!"

As soon as he took the lead, someone immediately followed him out.

"Everyone stays, everyone stays," Zhu Changxun, who was standing on the side of the door, was thinking about whether to find a place to hide and avoid suspicion, but he listened to Fang Congzhe and said, "Everyone first listen to what the official said, this support for the crown prince to ascend the throne is not in a hurry, the two emperors are in a big line, how to arrange funeral matters, how to draw up the temple number, how to distinguish the year, we need to discuss carefully, we still have to agree on these things before the prince comes." ”

"There will still be time to solve these things in the future," Yang Lian couldn't help but twist his brows, "Lord Shoufu, can't you even tell the priorities?" ”

"Lord Yang's words, the official does not dare to agree," Fang Congzhe turned his head to look at him, "This year is the forty-eighth year of Wanli, the emperor in July, after the new emperor ascended the throne, according to the convention, next year will be the first year of Taichang, but the new emperor has only been on the throne for one month, and there are great changes, once the crown prince ascends the throne, then there will be a new era name next year, may I ask, the era name of Taichang, is it alive or not?" That's a tricky question! ”
