Daming: From the Son of Heaven to the Leader of Comprehensive Martial Arts

But now, Du Feng couldn't say anything, but the emperor's eyes seemed to be clear.

And the look in Eunuch Wei's eyes just now, it turned out to be disappointment in himself, not...

When Du Feng understood everything, the feeling of losing his life was slowly released in his heart.

"The humble minister has neglected his duty, and I ask the emperor to punish me."

It is a fact that no one was staring at Jiang Yuyan, but if he had something to do with Concubine Tang's child, then his life would indeed be in jeopardy.

Zhu Qizhen also thought about it for a while in the Hall of Mental Cultivation before he realized the key point. Shangguan Haitang was indeed the one who stood firmly with him during his most difficult time.

But coming to the palace as the eldest lady of Hulong Villa must have a purpose.

Zhu Qizhen didn't mind all of this, but if concubine Tang almost lost her child because of other people's thoughts, he would naturally pursue it to the end.

"Dereliction of duty? Concubine Tang's child is almost lost today. What does Jin Yiwei do? Could it be that without Wei Zhongxian, you are like headless chickens, and you don't even have the ability to do things for me?"

The emperor's voice sounded calm, but it made Du Feng fall into deep fear.

"Your Majesty, before dawn, I will definitely find out what Jiang Yuyan has done in the palace in the past few days, and please give me a chance to redeem my crimes."

Perhaps it was the return of Yuhuatian that made Jin Yiwei suddenly feel a little bit of a sense of crisis, or maybe the emperor is now evading all forces, making Jin Yiwei bigger than ever, and they also began to be a little confused.

But everything is because Jin Yiwei didn't know the lesson, and he didn't even pay attention to the emperor's orders. The emperor should be angry now.

"If you shift your mind from dealing with the people in Xichang to what I ordered, what happened today will not happen, understand?"

Zhu Qizhen slowly appeared from the dim candlelight. Du Feng knew why Eunuch Wei felt afraid after being in front of the emperor for such a long time.

Chapter 341 It's Up to Now

Every word the emperor said seemed to have an inexplicable magic power, which made them involuntarily have a desire to respect in their hearts.

"Damn my humble minister."

Du Feng buried his head firmly on the ground, the emperor didn't order anyone to get rid of him directly, his life was spared, as for how the emperor will deal with him after finding out the situation, it is not something he can change.

"Get out."

Du Feng went out after rolling and crawling, Wei Zhongxian stood aside and watched, feeling a little helpless in his heart.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late at night, so let's go to bed early. Even the slaves think that Jiang Jieyu knows the emperor's temperament and will not do some things anymore. I didn't expect Jiang Jieyu to be so obsessed. Instead, it was a waste of money." The emperor's painstaking efforts."

These days Jiang Jieyu seems to be keeping a low profile in the palace. If it weren't for the people who often follow her, they would naturally not know what she was doing. Even Concubine Xiang seldom saw her come to pay her respects.

Thinking that she is not a queen after all, even if she didn't come, it is justifiable, so she didn't pursue it, and she had a good temper, so she didn't want the emperor to know.

It seems that such a short period of time let Jiang Yuyan know the temperament of the people in the palace, and took advantage of the gap to make some disturbances. If Zhu Qizhen's current thoughts are said, it has nothing to do with regret. I really want to know, besides the martial arts cheat book, what else is there that Jiang Yuyan must pursue.

Perhaps following her line, there may be some unexpected gains.

Wei Zhongxian understands that what the emperor is worried about now is not the matter of getting rid of Jiang Yuyan, but what role Tang Concubine Empress will play in this matter. If she is completely innocent, the emperor can reluctantly accept it, but if she listens to what Xu Yan said However, if the children of the two are taken out to take risks, there will always be a grudge in the emperor's heart.

For Concubine Tang, it was not good news.

Wei Zhongxian persuaded the emperor, and finally he was willing to rest, but Du Feng, who was kicked out, summoned his men to start a secret operation in the middle of the night in the capital.

I don't know what new things were added to the menthol oil I used recently, but Zhu Qizhen slept comfortably this time.

The little eunuch who was watching the night last night noticed the movement inside, so he ordered someone to serve the emperor to wash up.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Tang has woken up this morning and cried for a while in the palace. She managed to calm down after knowing that the child was saved. The imperial hospital also said that as long as Concubine Tang wakes up, it will be considered as a life-saving It's hard."

Zhu Qizhen felt the heat from the veil on his face, and his mind became more clear, the little eunuch told the news from the palace one by one, and Wei Zhongxian arrived when the breakfast was put on the table.

As for what kind of news he got from Du Feng, Zhu Qizhen would know after eating it.

Wei Zhongxian has always known the emperor's rules.

"The outside world still knows what happened yesterday. Several ministers wrote a letter, saying that the people from the Sun family had something to do with Concubine Tang's affairs. The slaves have ordered people to investigate the details of these people, and they are very clean."

The cleaner it is, the more it means that there are other people involved in it.

Zhu Qizhen didn't speak, and Wei Zhongxian didn't dare to tell the emperor what Du Feng found out overnight.

It wasn't until he drank the last bit of soy milk that Zhu Qizhen stood up refreshed.

"Since the booklets are all ready, I will see these few people who are filled with righteous indignation in the morning court."

Wei Zhongxian held the emperor's hand and told the emperor what he found out.

"The queen mother said in the palace a few days ago that she would order people to send nourishing soup to Concubine Tang's palace. This time Sun Zhaoyi went to Zhongcui Palace by chance. She said that on the way to deliver the medicine, Zhu Qing who was beside the queen saw it. Sun Zhaoyi, thinking that the Ministry of Internal Affairs recently has a batch of new materials, so I handed over this matter to Sun Zhaoyi."

According to Sun Zhaoyi's temperament, he would not go to Zhongcui Palace to join in the fun.

"Not long before the accident, Xu Zhaoyi often went to the Zhongcui Palace. At that time, Jiang Yuyan had already obtained the secret book of embedding flowers and trees prepared by the emperor. Speaking of which, Jiang Yuyan's methods were indeed relatively secretive, and Du Feng was also to blame for this matter. Negligence of duty, if he knew that Jiang Yuyan got it early in the morning, the emperor would not have given her the opportunity to contact Xu Zhaoyi."

Zhu Qizhen thought that when Xu Yan went to the meeting alone, he came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to assassinate himself after listening to Cao Zhengchun's words. She has always liked such a temper, so when she knew that she was indeed involved, her expression was a little unhappy of.

"Concubine Tang may have been thinking a lot during her pregnancy. Thinking of Xu Zhaoyi's frequent visits to accompany her, she said a lot of things, one of which was said to Concubine Tang by Xu Zhaoyi herself."

When talking about this place, Wei Zhongxian subconsciously paused. If the emperor had pursued Sun Zhaoyi yesterday, he might not have known about this sentence, but now, he couldn't hide it.

"Say."

Zhu Qizhen's expression was a little solemn.

Wei Zhongxian said slowly: "If Sister Concubine Tang wants to keep the emperor's heart, she has to use her children to take risks. Zhu Qing, who is beside the queen mother, may have colluded with Jiang Yuyan long ago, but what method did this person use? Du Feng didn't find out, but Jiang Yuyan took advantage of the relationship between Xu Zhaoyi and Tang Concubine to find someone to take something from Tang Concubine's hand."

Zhu Qizhen knew the ins and outs of the matter.

"The method I bestowed on Concubine Tang back then?"

Wei Zhongxian nodded.

If the emperor knew that what he was fighting for in the end was what he gave at the beginning...

The emperor once knew that Haitang had internal injuries, and the burden would be too heavy after having a child. This method was obtained from Kunlun Xu at the beginning. When Zhang Sanfeng saw this thing, his eyes lit up. He is a top master among cultivators I can't help but be tempted by things, which are naturally good.

However, all traces from the beginning disappeared under Zhu Qizhen's gesture.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuyan would come up with the idea of ​​this thing.

As for Concubine Tang becoming a little uneasy because of the newcomers in the palace, Zhu Qizhen didn't believe it.

I just don't know why Xu Yan is willing to help Jiang Yuyan with his affairs.

"Your Majesty, Xu Zhaoyi's identity is indeed the most unclear in the palace. Perhaps it was a lie to come to the Emperor in the name of Governor Cao."

Wei Zhongxian wanted to say this sentence a long time ago. Before the emperor thought about Xu Zhaoyi's background, he always had some pity. Wei Zhongxian didn't know when he should speak, but now the motive has been revealed. Give the emperor more A little room for reference is also good.

Chapter 342 Two Phase Tradeoffs

In addition, Governor Cao didn't mention anything about Xu Yan in the letters he exchanged, and the emperor didn't pay attention to investigating Xu Zhaoyi's background before.

Wei Zhongxian's guess is not unreasonable.

So the key now lies with Xu Yan, and Zhu Qizhen really doesn't want to make this matter too rigid.

If he could guess that what happened to Concubine Tang yesterday had something to do with him, Xu Yan would know when he appeared in front of him.

Wei Zhongxian understood from the emperor's expression.

"I don't know how so many adults can quarrel this morning over the matter of the concubine Tang. Speaking of which, didn't the emperor want to find out how many nails the Jianghu forces buried in the court? Maybe you can understand it today. gone."

When Wei Zhongxian said this, he was actually helping to divert the attention of the emperor. After all, the affairs of the harem were a lot of trouble. If the concubine Tang's child hadn't been saved yesterday, I don't know what would happen.

Now Wei Zhongxian also knows where the emperor's thoughts are, and sometimes the few words he says are very pleasant.

"The Emperor is here!"

Zhu Qizhen relaxed the conditions before. Before he came, if the ministers were impatient to argue about the result, even if they were noisy, since it was all for the sake of the court, sooner or later a conclusion would be drawn.

When Zhu Qizhen arrived, the people below were already arguing, and it was only after Wei Zhongxian opened his mouth that he restrained himself a little.

Before the emperor opened his mouth to give orders, several ministers standing in front knelt down in front of Zhu Qizhen first. Yuhuatian also arrived naturally according to his status, but the official position of Xichang is not high, that is, a third rank Officer, the two people kneeling in front are now Zhu Qizhen's right-hand men. If you look carefully, people from the Sun family are also mixed in.

"The two lovers are so excited, it seems that there is something important to talk about?"

Li Xian, who was kneeling in front, spoke first.

"Your Majesty, in the first place, humble officials shouldn't interfere with matters related to the Emperor's harem, but now the dragon son in Concubine Tang's arms is related to the country and society. Since the Emperor knows who made the mistake, he should take it easy, even though Concubine Tang There are not many people involved in the capital, but Hulong Villa has always been close to the capital. Now that the current situation is turbulent, the emperor has used a Japanese kingdom to suppress all the surrounding clan countries. Now as long as there is no movement in the rivers and lakes, the Ming Dynasty will be It can last for thousands of years, and the Sun family cannot escape the blame."

Li Xian saw that Yu Qian was about to speak, now who knows that Yu Qian is the Queen Mother's mouthpiece in the previous court, although Yu Qian did have some ideas in Yongbing Mountain, but he was a character who came from the emperor's handing over the matter to Yuhuatian, an internal servant When he didn't give it to him, it actually showed the emperor's attitude towards the queen mother.

This time, the Sun family must be killed. Only in this way can the court return to its former peace.

Yu Qian didn't expect that the two people who were still arguing just now would directly blame the Sun family.

"The emperor hasn't made up his mind yet. I didn't expect Mr. Li to speak first. Those who didn't know thought that what Mr. Li did was not about the affairs of the harem, but how he dragged the Sun family into trouble."

The person kneeling next to him was Shi Heng, a person who should have been given to death by Zhu Qizhen a long time ago, but keeping Shi Heng would be of great use to the current Zhu Qizhen.

"Your Majesty, there are more and more speculations about the Fox Fairy from the outside world. With the Emperor sitting in the capital, there will naturally be fewer monsters and ghosts. But now that rumors are spreading everywhere, the purpose is to shake the foundation of Ming Dynasty. It is better for the Emperor to make a decision early, Yiwei. What I mean by this is to first arrest a few people who spread rumors everywhere, and sooner or later the matter in the harem will be resolved, it is better to think about things outside the court."

Shi Heng was also a military general, and speaking of it, he was a little arrogant when he supported Zhu Qizhen for restoration, but now he can clearly see the situation of the court, and knows to speak according to the emperor's will.

"Then what can Shi Aiqing do?" Yu Qian looked at the emperor with no eyes on him and Li Xian, and according to the emperor's temperament, if he really wanted to pursue the Sun family, he should have made trouble yesterday, but There is no news at all this morning, which means that the emperor still has a lot of considerations about this matter.

After the queen mother found out, she just told Sun Keqing to tell the truth, seeing that the members of the Sun family were about to push Sun Keqing out to plead guilty, but the emperor died down.

Shi Heng is a practical man, and the rumors about the fox fairy are rampant, so it is natural to use the most straightforward means to solve it.

"If the emperor agrees, I will lead the guards to search in the capital first. I have already spotted a few people who are telling stories in the Goulan cottage. As long as I catch these people, I want to come. The matter of the fox fairy can be calmed down a lot."

Yu Qian said with a disdainful tone at this time: "I think General Shi is too old now, and he doesn't know about the fox fairy. People in the Jianghu who said the same thing as General Shi before did not save their lives. They all say that the fox fairy is in the Jianghu. There are so many eyes and ears in the middle, what's the use of cleaning up the capital, if General Shi is powerful, why don't you catch that fox fairy, so that the people in the capital will see it, and naturally there will be no more rumors in the future."

"You still want to use the forbidden army, General Shi, I think you are getting old and confused now."

We all know that the Forbidden Army is within Yuqian's sphere of influence, and the Minister of War should be in charge of the military power in the capital. However, many people in the Forbidden Army used to follow Shi Heng to fight the country, so every time the Forbidden Army wants to come forward to solve the problem Some things must be coordinated.

Originally, Yu Qian almost told the emperor to change the people in the forbidden army, but then the emperor seemed to have completely forgotten about it, and never mentioned it in front of him.

Although I was a little anxious, it was impossible to rush in front of the emperor anyway, so I had to wait patiently.

Now Shi Heng actually wants to lend the forbidden army to him in an aboveboard manner, and finally figured out the bottom line. If he returns to Shi Heng's hands, he, the Minister of the Ministry of War, will suffer in the future.

At that time, the military power that the empress dowager wants to rely on will be divided, and he will naturally become a marginal figure. Although the Minister of War is a core role in the court, for the emperor, he has helped the empress do a lot of things before. Even almost pulling the emperor down from his current position, the emperor turned a blind eye now because of the empress dowager's face.

Once the blessing of the Queen Mother is lost, there are still many people who can sit in the position of Minister of War.

Yu Qian really saw clearly, so he refuted Shi Heng's words like this.

Chapter 343

Now I wish I could go out early so as not to cause trouble in front of the emperor, who would dare to stay in this place.

The court hall, which was still noisy before, suddenly became quiet. As for why Sun Huaide and Wang Kang'an were kept by the emperor, it is not something people at their level can understand.

One is the empress dowager's own elder brother, and the other is a veteran who has gone through several generations. If you want to fight against the outside world, you must first settle down inside. Before, you used the things of the Japanese country as a raft. Now it seems that the emperor wants to completely settle down internally.

It's just that Shi Heng and Li Xian, who were noisy in front of the emperor just now, were obviously not convinced, thinking that they should come to the emperor sometime.

Seeing the emperor's appearance, Sun Huaide wanted to hold the Sun family accountable, but he hadn't let go before that it was Sun Zhaoyi who did it. As the saying goes, if the emperor doesn't move, it's fine for the emperor to say that he doesn't know.

The empress dowager left and right has not yet spread the news.

"Speaking of which, although the Sun family is in the capital, the Empress Dowager has lived in the palace for a long time. Sun Shangshu must have not seen the Empress Dowager for a long time. In the morning, people from the Palace of Compassion and Ning sent a message to me that the Empress Dowager was bedridden, presumably because she was ill. Why don't Sun Shangshu take advantage of the sunny day to go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace, and then go after having lunch with the Queen Mother."

Sun Huaide suddenly stood up in shock, obviously he didn't know the news, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed in front of the emperor for so long, but now the emperor let go and wanted to go to the queen mother by himself, there must be some other conspiracy ?

Seeing Sun Huaide's suspicious eyes, the expression on Zhu Qizhen's face became a little relaxed.

"If Sun Shangshu is jealous of the rules in the palace and knows that foreign ministers can't go to the harem casually, I won't force you...Come here!"

Sun Huaide knelt down in front of him with a plop.

"My Majesty, please be reminded that I and the Empress Dowager grew up together, and now I know that the Empress Dowager is sick in bed. If I don't go and take a look in person, I can't feel at ease."

That being the case, then give Sun Huaide a chance to show his loyalty.

"Alright, it's still the same as what I said just now. The Queen Mother is not feeling well. If someone stays by her side and carefully relieves her illness, she may recover faster. Wei Zhongxian, take Sun Shangshu away."

Sun Huaide knew that even if he took the risk of making the emperor think that the current queen mother and the Sun family were still in collusion, he had to go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace. It's nothing more than the rumors from the middle, I'm afraid that if people know the way to spread the news on both sides, they will still be kept in the dark when they are framed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhu Qizhen looked at Taifu Wang who was bowing down and waiting quietly for him to speak.

Ever since he started to deal with state affairs, he has not relied too much on this old minister. It is said that he took the initiative to marginalize this old minister, and this Wang Taifu seems to have no complaints at all. Zhu Qizhen was not interested in him in the past. After all, officials in the imperial court have different personalities, but Wang Taifu has recently tried to win over people from other factions in the market, even disregarding the hostile relationship on the surface, obviously for him to see.

Although the backyard is on fire now, Zhu Qizhen can still hold his mind down, and listen to what this Wang Taifu is thinking now.
