I'm watching the gate in the jail
Chapter 30
Inside Zhaode Palace, there was a happy and peaceful scene.
"Uncle Lang, don't lower your head, look up and let me see you."
Zhu Jianshen pointed at the "big beauty" dressed up in front of him, clasped his hands together and laughed.
Wanda, who was covered in jewels and wearing pearl ear clips, raised her head resentfully, and looked at Wan Zhen'er, who was holding her belly and smiling, "Sister...don't laugh..."
"Oh, what a beauty, my younger brother is so beautiful. She's a real beauty, hahaha..."
Wan Zhen'er pinched the corner of Sipa, and wiped the tears seeping from the corner of her eyes while laughing.
"Excessive."
Wanda saw Qin Chang laughing so hard that he held on to the lattice window, shaking the whole window lattice, and pushed him angrily.
This guy!Early in the morning, he ran to Earl Xinle's mansion, saying that His Majesty and Empress called him urgently, and asked him to enter the palace immediately without delay.
He left behind a bunch of things at home and just walked into the Forbidden City with him, when he was dragged into an unknown palace by a group of little eunuchs and little maids, and changed into the current young girl's dress, and He put on a bunch of jingling jewelry and sent them to His Majesty and Empress.
Then there is the scene where the whole palace is laughing and laughing.
It turned out that the elder sister Wan Zhen'er heard that the reason why the case of the White Lotus Sect was solved so quickly was due to Wanda's women's spying in the nunnery.
His brother-in-law of the emperor asked the eunuch Qin Chang to lure him into the palace for the sake of smiling at Bo Mei, and put him in the clothes his sister wore when she was young, to make Wan Zhen'er happy.
Wanda thought to himself: Zhu Jianshen, your behavior is very characteristic of a fool... No wonder later history books will write that you are obsessed with Wan Zhener's beauty.
What is the origin of an idiom? ——The color makes the mind faint!
"This dress was worn by my concubine when she was young, does your Majesty still remember?"
Wan Zhen'er beckoned, and pulled Wanda with a stinky expression to her side, pointed to the pink soft satin bijia on his body, and touched the purple gold flower pattern on it, "At that time, the concubine followed His Majesty Live in Prince Yi's mansion. The rules in the palace are looser than those in the palace, and only courtiers and concubines can wear popular clothes for folk women."
She was talking about the days when Zhu Jianshen was deposed as the prince, and they were briefly expelled from the palace and moved into the so-called "Yiwang Mansion".
Speaking of it, those days can be described as frightening.
Wan Zhen'er was worried every day, afraid that Emperor Jingtai not only wanted Zhu Jianshen's crown prince, but also wanted his life.
She touched the dress with nostalgia, and found that she actually missed those days a little bit.
Since entering the palace at the age of four, until she was named a concubine, she always wore the uniform of a court lady.There is not a piece of clothing that truly belongs to "Wan Zhen'er".
Before and after, she is "Wan Shichang", the benchmark of court ladies, the queen mother's confidant, and the prince's nanny.
Only during those short days in Yiwang Mansion, she could wear the clothes of a folk girl and take Zhu Jianshen, who was only six years old, her future husband, out of this square world to breathe the air outside.
Although the air is full of bloody smell, and the wind and rain are about to kill.
"Remember, of course."
Zhu Jianshen squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "At that time, Minister Wan was very beautiful, and his delicate appearance could make Baihua lose its color. He is valiant and not inferior to a man."
"Nonsense, how old was Your Majesty at that time, how can you still remember the appearance of your concubine at that time?"
Wan Zhen'er chuckled, "It's a pity, now that my concubine is getting older, she can no longer wear such a delicate color."
"Master Wan is just talking nonsense, you will always be young and beautiful in my heart. Not to mention this dress, no matter how pink you are, you can wear it."
Zhu Jian held Wan Zhen'er's hand affectionately.
A single dog shivering from the cold ate a mouthful of 600-year-old imperial concubine dog food at close range.
But looking at Zhu Jianshen who was full of smiles, Wanda let go of the tight string in his heart.
The Bailian altar in the capital was eradicated, and the big problem that had been regarded as a confidant's trouble since Emperor Yongle was solved, the young little emperor finally felt that he had taken another step towards the goal of being a great emperor.
What's more, this time, millions of taels of silver and a thousand mu of well-cultivated cultivated land—the temple land of Guangji Temple—was obtained, together with various treasures confiscated from Miaoyin Nunnery.The proceeds from handling the case this time not only fully made up for the treasury and silver public funds embezzled by Ma Shilang over the years, but even 10,000+ taels more—half of the confiscated property went to the national treasury, and half went to the emperor’s private inner library.
Since he ascended the throne, Zhu Jianshen, who has been worrying about money, finally feels a little more financial.
After leaving Zhaode Palace, Wanda was finally able to change into this female attire.Under the guidance of Eunuch Huai'en, he walked to the Wuying Hall where Zhu Jianshen worked today.
"I saw my father-in-law smiling just now."
Putting on a bright red flying fish suit, Wanda said angrily, "Why does His Majesty only let me wear women's clothes, and Qiu Jiansheng also wore girl's clothes that day."
"Qiu Jiansheng is a scholar after all...and he is a supervisor who has not yet achieved a reputation, how can he enter the palace casually."
Wynn walked ahead, and couldn't help but raised the corners of his mouth.
He was on the horse that day, and he saw a girl standing at the end of the line with Jin Yiwei from a distance.I was still wondering who this person was.
Later, one of his subordinates sent him the documents of supervision and trial for his review, and only then did he realize that the so-called "girl" was actually a student of the Imperial College who had served in the Ministry of Criminal Justice.
Wynn knew it, and Zhu Jianshen naturally heard of his name.
I heard that Qiu Jiansheng can be regarded as a child prodigy, and he is very popular with the old scholars of the Imperial College.
The emperor loves and cherishes talents, especially young students.If his article can stand out in the examination, based on this alone, it is estimated that his ranking will not be so low.
Well, it turns out that scholars can't be bullied, so just bully me, a big bastard, right...
After hearing this, Wanda curled her lips.
"That's right, Eunuch."
Seeing that he was about to reach the Hall of Martial Arts, Wanda stopped in his tracks.
"That day, there was a little eunuch named 'Liang Fang' who was going to pass me a Mazar at the gate of Guangji Temple."
Wynn's eyelids twitched, but his face was impeccable.
"Yes……"
"This kid has a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. I don't think he is a good guy. Be careful, don't let him get close to my sister... Oh, no, close to your mother."
This kind of villain's face is too obvious.
Wanda watched Gongdou opera with his mother a lot in his previous life, so he felt something was wrong at that time.
Speaking of which, Wan Zhen'er has been scolded so miserably in history, except for literati who think they are righteous, they can't understand that she is so many years older than Zhu Jianshen, but she can dominate the harem.Maybe there is also the credit of these eunuchs!
Wynn looked in surprise at Wanda's upright face, smiled and nodded.
At first, I thought that Uncle Lang was just pure in nature.Now it seems that his vision of seeing people is not bad... The empress has such a brother to help outside the palace, so she has a lot less worries.
After entering the Wuying Hall, Wanda saluted Zhu Jianshen as usual, and he called him to the desk like a puppy.
Zhu Jianshen patted the little man next to him to signal him to sit down.
"I have a very good thing for you to do."
Zhu Jian lowered his head obliquely, showing a smile like an old cat eating fish.
"Good thing?"
Wanda narrowed her big eyes suspiciously.
It seems that he hasn't encountered any good things since he worked for the emperor.
After this battle, Wanda knew that she began to doubt whether she had the "Ultraman Physique" or "Conan Physique".
Especially this time, Wanda looked at the white bandage wrapped around her hand
After that day, the group returned to the Jinyiwei Yamen non-stop. Yang Xiuxian specially invited a famous doctor to treat him, and only then did he know that he almost injured his tendon.If it really hurts the bones, Wanda will not even think about holding a kitchen knife in the future.
Eunuch Huai En and Tan Chang didn't dare to worry Concubine Wan, so they sent the imperial physician to look at her overnight.All kinds of expensive sore medicines and Yunnan Baiyao were sent to Earl's Mansion like flowing water.
Knowing that there were no maids serving in his yard, Wynn specially sent two servants from the palace to serve.As of today, nearly half a month has passed for Wanda, the decadent days of drinking water and urinating without having to do it herself.
Just like that, when she entered the palace today, the empress almost cried when she saw his hands wrapped in layers.
If eunuch Qin Chang hadn't repeatedly assured that it was just a scary look, but in fact it was almost healed, Wan Zhen'er would probably be sad for a while.
Of course, he hasn't been to the Yamen for half a month, and he doesn't know what happened to the brothers in Beizhen Fusi.
Especially Deng Zongqi, this time the position of the Zongqi must be lost...
Wanda sighed with a bitter face.
"What's your expression? Every time you do something for me, do I lose your benefits?"
Zhu Jianshen raised his head and knocked on his forehead violently. Wanda hugged his head with his hands wrapped in white bandages, and looked at him pitifully. The funny look made the little emperor laugh out loud.
After this case, all Jin Yiwei's people involved in handling the case were promoted to a higher level.
Wanda himself, from the hereditary Jinyiwei Qianhu, was promoted from a fifth-rank official to a trial town governor.In the future, the brothers in the yamen will call him not "Wanqianhu", but the majestic "Wanzhenfu".
Yang Xiuxian wanted to remove the word "trial" in front of "trial Qianhu", but this time he finally achieved his wish and became a serious "Yang Qianhu" adult.
Even Gao Hui, this time, finally got rid of the title of Captain Wannian and became Gao Xiaoqi.Finally, from "not popular" to a grade seven official.
Although "Congqipin" is a little smaller than Zhimaguan, it is still an official status.Now he can command ten people under his command!
What does this mean? ——It means that in the future, Master Wan will have eleven people under his command...
"This time I listened to your plea, and pardoned Mrs. Song's mother and daughter. Otherwise, the whole family should be punished for the crimes committed by her husband. I thought that her mother and daughter were also deeply hurt by it. Love is inevitable. They are allowed to reconcile as husband and wife. These two people don't have to die with that Dechang."
"That's that, the emperor's brother-in-law has a kind heart, and now Sister-in-law Song's mother and daughter are all in the palace. From now on, there will be no shortage of food and clothing, and life will be like a fairy."
Wanda said flatteringly.
Although Mrs. Song's mother and daughter don't have to die with Dechang who has already been sentenced to Ling Chi, they are all sinful women after all, and they should serve as slaves in the palace.
But firstly, Mrs. Xiao Wan pleaded for mercy, and secondly, Mrs. Song had a great skill. What better place than the palace to display her official cooking skills?
According to the records of "Wanli Ye Huo Bian", since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, female officials have been selected to enter the inner court to take charge of affairs such as concubines and court ladies.The women's official organization is called the "Six Shang", that is, Shanggong Bureau, Shangyi Bureau, Shangfu Bureau, Shangshi Bureau, Shangbei Bureau, and Shanggong Bureau.
Mrs. Song is less than [-] years old this year, she can read and write, and she is good at cooking, so she can just enter the Shangshi Bureau.
Wan Niangniang is kind-hearted, and she heard from Wanda that their mother and daughter have had a hard time these years, and she brought a girl with her, so she simply asked Mrs. Song to serve her personally and become her close female officer.
Xiaohui followed her mother and grew up in the palace.There are other female officials and nuns in the palace who can teach her to read and write and various skills.It can be regarded as the best arrangement for their mother and daughter.
"Your Majesty, this 'officer' is not a 'maid', so she doesn't have to serve in the palace for the rest of her life. After three to five years, the dust will settle... Will Mrs. Song still be able to leave the palace to marry?"
Wanda asked this on behalf of Gao Hui.
Now that Gaohui has become Gao Xiaoqi, his salary has naturally increased.Although the goal of buying a house in Beijing is still far away, the matter of renting a house in Beijing has already been put on the agenda.
It was fine if they didn't know before, but now they know that their colleagues have had such a hard time, and the young man is about to turn 25. If this continues, he may be a bachelor for the rest of his life, so there is no reason not to lend a helping hand.
Originally, according to Wanda's intention, there are many vacant rooms in the Earl's Mansion, and Gao Hui can just leave one room to live in.
If you say that Yang Xiuxian still knows how to be a man, there is no reason for an official to live in the boss's house, and it is still the Earl's residence.
His Yang family has been operating in Beijing for many years, and there is a row of shops for rent and a small courtyard in the west of the city.The small courtyard was specially rented out to candidates who had entered the Beijing exam, and it was very convenient for no female relatives to come in and out.
Now that all three rooms have been rented out, and only one is left vacant, let's rent it to Gaohui at a lower price.But it's not cheap. When the exam season is over, those scholars will basically leave.At that time, the cleaning and looking after the house will be left to him.
There is also the shop in the lively place in front, and trifles such as noisy guests are inevitable on weekdays.If it is true that the landlord here is Jinyiwei Qianhu, it sounds too bullying.If someone really came to disturb the door in the future, Gao Hui would just stand at the door with his arms folded and his face darkened, keeping the matter in peace.
So Yang Xiuxian found a dormitory supervisor and security guard for his property in the name of renting a house.
Such an arrangement will not only make Gao Hui live in peace of mind, but also will not hurt his young man's self-esteem, which is the best of both worlds.
When Wanda heard this, she was convinced at the time, thinking that Mr. Yang is really good at being a man.In the future, I don't know which little lady is blessed to be able to marry such a husband.
He's tall, rich, and handsome, yet so ignorant... Hey...
It's a pity that Mr. Yang is so kind, but he just doesn't engage in basics.
"According to the rules of our ancestors, after five or six years of service in the palace, female officials can leave the palace and let them get married. If they are too old and don't want to leave the palace, they can stay in the palace. The place where the palace maids retire."
Zhu Jianshen said.
Then he frowned, and pointed at Wanda in surprise, "Uncle Lang... You, don't you think you've taken a fancy to Mrs. Song?"
What?
Wanda turned pale with shock.
"I met her the day she entered the palace to thank you. Speaking of which, although she is ten years older than you, Uncle Xiaolang, she still looks beautiful and graceful. Of course...you can't compare with my waiter Wan. Calculated, she is only 28 or 33 years old this year. If she leaves the palace at the age of [-] and marries Uncle Xiao Lang, it is entirely possible to have a child or something!"
Zhu Jianshen seemed to have discovered a big secret, and excitedly punched the palm of his left hand with his right fist.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
Wanda stretched out "Erkang's hand", "No..."
"Ah, then her daughter, Xiao Hui, will call you a father? If that's the case, Uncle Xiao Lang's daughter is the niece of Zhen and Chief Wan! Then she can't be raised as an ordinary little palace maid. Afterwards, I will ask someone to make arrangements for her to match her with the best nurturing mother and female academic officer. At least, she must be raised according to the etiquette of the Lord."
Zhu Jianshen said, and raised his eyebrows at Wanda, "It's okay, I understand you. Don't be shy, Uncle Lang. When the opportunity comes, I will make arrangements for you."
What do you know!
Brother-in-law love is not hereditary, brother-in-law, don't mess around? !
"No... no, really not!"
Wanda was so anxious that she almost stuttered.
"It's not me, it's not that I've fallen in love with Mrs. Song. Someone else, someone else! Really, I swear!"
Seeing that Wanda's face was flushed, Zhu Jianshen realized that he had misunderstood.
"Okay...it's a pity."
He sighed regretfully.
"However, I and Master Wan will help you with Uncle Xiaolang's marriage."
This is what Zhu Jianshen said from the bottom of his heart.
It is said that the eldest sister is like a mother, and she has never been filial at home for so many years, and she has not seen the growth of her two younger brothers. After all, it is Wan Zhener's eternal regret in her heart.
Now that Wantong has the Chen family, I won't mention it. Wan Zhen'er must take care of Wanda's marriage to the end.
"In this world, no matter what kind of girl is. Even if she is the daughter of the clan, as long as Xiao Lang likes it, I can give you a marriage. At that time, Minister Wan will buy you a bride price and a house. I will definitely let you do the whole thing." The most beautiful groom in the world."
Zhu Jian said with a deep smile.
Hearing the word "marriage", Wanda lowered her head silently.
He can't get married here, no matter who the other party is, he can't harm that woman.
In such an open day 600 years later, it was hard to tell about his sexuality, let alone in the Ming Dynasty when feudal etiquette was at its peak.
"Let's talk... I'm still young."
Wanda said in a dry voice.
"It's also...a good man should put his career first, and there is no rush for marriage."
Zhu Jianshen nodded.
Although this uncle Lang is only two years younger than him, when he was that age, he was already in charge.But he is the younger brother of Minister Wan, so in his eyes, he is just a child.
"Speaking of business, I want you to be an 'angel' once. This is a great honor."
"'Angel'?"
In Wanda's mind, there was a naked child with wings on his back.
Zhu Jianshen ordered Wynn to hand over the drafted edict to Wanda.
"I order you, three days later, to go to the newly built ancestral hall of Yu Shangshu to worship. A few days ago, I had already decreed that Yu Shangshu should be rehabilitated, and restored Yu Shangshu's eldest son, Yu Mian's position as the avant-garde deputy Qianhu. This is my You, on my behalf, will go to Yu Shangshu’s tomb to read the sacrificial oration written for Yu Shangshu. Isn’t this a good job?”
"This is a great job."
Wanda knelt down and took with both hands the brocade box that sealed the sacrificial oration and imperial decree handwritten by the emperor from Eunuch Wynn.
Ashamed to say, before the semi-literate Wanda came to this era, although he also vaguely remembered that there was a very upright official named "Yu Qian" mentioned in the Chinese documents, he was such a good man.But there's really no idea what he's actually doing.
When the name "Yu Qian" was mentioned, the first thing he thought of was Tao'er's partner, the Green Hat King of the Eight Iron Hat Princes, Uncle Yu...
That is to say, it was in this era that we learned about the Battle of Tumubao and the Battle of Beijing.Bazhou City, where he grew up, was once one of the battlefields of the defense war.
Wan Gui, his father in this life, even once fought against the Wala people on the gate tower of Bazhou City.And the person who commanded this battle and protected the Great Ming Dynasty was the Shangshu of the Ministry of War at that time, Lord Yu Qianyu.
To be able to read the sacrificial oration written for the emperor for the emperor is simply not "honorable".
It was beyond his wildest dreams that a small ordinary person like himself could face this glorious historical and immortal backbone of the nation in this way.
"Okay, let's go down. I still have a lot of things to do."
Zhu Jianshen waved to him and ordered Wynn to take him out of the palace.
Not long after the new year passed, the industrious Zhu Jianshen convened a group of ministers including the cabinet, six ministries, the governor's office of the five armies, and the inspector's office to discuss the official plan to send troops to Guangxi.It was decided to mobilize more than [-] soldiers from Hubei, Hunan, and Guangdong and Guangxi before May, with Han Yong, the Zuo political participant in Zhejiang, as the commander of the army, to go to Guangxi to fight against rebels and quell the chaos in the southwest.
This Mr. Han is also a genius type of character.When he was only 20 years old, he became a Jinshi and was awarded the title of censor by the first emperor.Although he is a scholar, he is extremely talented in military affairs and has participated in many pacification campaigns.Later, he was demoted from Beijing because of being implicated in the cabinet crony dispute.
After many years of ups and downs in the officialdom, Han Yong is only 43 years old this year, and he is in his prime.
In the tradition of the Ming Dynasty, when generals go out to battle, they usually appoint civil servants with imperial examination background as the commander-in-chief of the army.At the same time, eunuchs were dispatched to supervise the army.
Han Yong's talent and reputation are all top choices.And even though he is a scholar, he is not a scholar of Confucianism. He is flexible and knows how to advance and retreat. Although he is flawed due to party disputes, he still cannot hide his general talent.
So when Zhu Jianshen asked who could serve as the commander-in-chief of the Guangxi campaign, Wang Hong, the Minister of the Ministry of War at the time, resisted all opinions and recommended this young man.Zhu Jian deeply thought Xu.
Since the Tianshun Dynasty, the country has not experienced a major war. The memory of the "Civil Fortress Change" is too humiliating and tragic, like a sharp knife piercing the hearts of all the soldiers and civilians of the Ming Dynasty.
And knowing that Yu Qian died wronged, but because he had to worry about the face of the late emperor, he couldn't get a fair evaluation for a long time, which made the scholars' hearts chill and made the little emperor feel extremely guilty.
Zhu Jianshen has already made all the plans - this time with great fanfare for Yu Qian to Zhao Xue, it will surely restore the prestige of the imperial court and quell the anger of the people.Let the country unite as one and devote itself to the battle of Guangxi.
Just a few days ago, several teams of royal "angels" had set off to the places where Yu Qian's eldest son Yu Mian, adopted son Yu Kang, and son-in-law Zhu Ji were exiled, to restore their officials to their original posts and take them back to the capital.
Yu Mian wrote a letter a few days ago, begging the court to offer sacrifices to his father who died unjustly, and Zhu Jianshen complied.
He not only wrote the sacrificial text himself, but also gave him the posthumous title "Sumin".Posthumously conferred the special honors of Dr. Guanglu, Zhu Guo, and Tai Tuo.
The posthumous ceremony and sacrificial ceremony are scheduled to be held three days later, and it is also in line with the usual etiquette to have Jin Yiwei, who represents the royal family, appear as an angel.
Holding the brocade box, Wanda followed Wynn out of the Hall of Martial Heroes. After walking two steps, he found that Wynn did not take him directly to the Shunzhen Gate as usual, but to Taiye Pool, which was later called Ying Taiwan direction went.
"Sister Song?"
Seeing the woman who was smiling at him in a blue long-breasted gown and crown, Wanda was a little startled.
Compared with the appearance of holding the child in embarrassment at the gate of Guangji Temple that night, this Mrs. Song in front of her is really "reborn".
"Thank you, father-in-law."
Although Mrs. Song has only entered the palace for a few days, she has already mastered the etiquette in the palace and bowed to thank Wynn.
Wynn waved his hand and stepped back a few steps.
"Master Wan, I asked Eunuch Wynn to let me meet with him. Now that my little girl and I can have today, I have to thank you for your great kindness. "
As she spoke, she bent down and bowed down to Wanda.
Wanda hurriedly helped her up, "Sister Song, don't be so polite."
"grown ups."
Mrs. Song was really rude this time, and said sternly, "I have made peace with Song Tianyang, and I have nothing to do with him. Your Majesty has appointed me as the sixth-rank cook, and my lord still calls me 'Ms. Chen', or' Chen Sishan' let's go."
Just a few days ago, Song Tianyang, also known as Monk Dechang, had been sentenced to death by Ling Chi by Dali Temple.Zhu Jianshen issued an order to set up an execution platform in front of Guangji Temple, and cut him into pieces in public.
Ordinarily, Dechang was drugged by Wanda, so he should have died long ago.But it was really so dead, wouldn't it be too cheap for him.
So the palace sent a servant, went down to the prison, and eunuched him first.If that thing doesn't exist, naturally he won't be exfoliated, so he can be punished slowly with one knife at a time.
The monks of Guangji Temple and the nuns of Miaoyin Nunnery, including Lin Sanniang, were all imprisoned, waiting to be executed in autumn.The remnants of the White Lotus Sect who wanted to escape that day were also wiped out by Xu Xiaoqi's men.It can be said that within the entire capital, the White Lotus Sect has not found much water.
Although Xuan Lian died, she committed a heinous crime, and her body was hung on the flagpole of Guangji Temple for public display.
Now, in front of the square of the "former altar" of the White Lotus Sect in Guangji Temple.Now, on one side is Dechang who has been sentenced, and on the other is Xuanlian who has been brutally corpsed. The emperor wants them to be reviled by thousands of people, so as to serve as a warning to others.
"That... Chen, Si Shan Chen."
Wanda scratched her head in embarrassment, "You don't know, Gao Hui has become Xiaoqi now. In fact, he has been treating you..."
Ms. Chen stretched out her right hand, put her five fingers together, and put it in front of Wanda's mouth.
"Lord Wan, I know Xiao Gao's intentions. But, so be it. I decide to die in the palace, never leave the palace, let alone marry someone else."
"Why?"
Wanda was puzzled, "I just asked my brother-in-law... His Majesty, he said that female officials can get married."
"Because I don't want to."
Miss Chen raised her head.
"My lord, my maiden name is Chen. Before I got married, I was called 'Chen Shisandao'."
What kind of name is that?
Seeing Wanda's puzzled eyes, Ms. Chen explained, "My mother is 'Chen Twelve Dao', and my grandmother is 'Chen Shi Shi Dao'. Our Chen family's official cooking skills have been around since the early Northern Song Dynasty. Inherited from mother to daughter. If there are no accidents, my daughter Xiaohui will be 'Chen Shishidao' in the future."
"I haven't met my father. My mother told me when I was very young. The women in our Chen family are different from other girls. We don't need to rely on our husbands, and we can support ourselves by relying on our own skills."
Ms. Chen lowered her head, "When I was young, I didn't understand why other people had fathers, but I didn't. At that time, I didn't understand my mother's intentions. I felt that I should be like others, take care of my husband and teach my children, so that my own children can have a father in their lives." An 'ordinary' life with a mother. So after I met Song Tianyang, I accepted him and entrusted my entire life, including my family property, to him."
In the end, he met someone who was not kind, and almost fell into the fire pit because of his own harm.
"When I told my mother that I was going to get married, my mother was very disappointed in me. She told me that I was not her biological child, but adopted by her. All the women of the Chen family were adopted by the previous generation of heads. Abandoned baby. On the day I got married, my mother left the house with her kitchen knife. She said she was going to adopt another girl and raise a new 'Chen Shisandao'."
Tears splashed in a small yellow circle on the dirt floor.
"I heard what Xuanlian said that day, and heard that she was also an abandoned baby adopted by a nun. Only then did I realize how wrong I was. I let my mother down so much..."
Miss Chen covered her face and wept.
"So I won't get married..."
As Miss Chen spoke, she wiped away the tears from her cheeks, and said to Wanda with eyes full of deep meaning, "Lord Wan, I'm sorry, please tell Xiao Gao that I'm sorry. He... will meet a better girl in the future." .”
"And I will serve Your Majesty and Your Majesty well for the rest of my life to repay your kindness."
She said, bowed deeply to Wanda, turned and left.
Looking at her solemn and refusing back, Wanda felt deeply shocked.
He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but nothing came out.
Three days later, half a mile east of Chongwen Gate, inside Zhongjie Temple.
Wanda, wearing a black gauze cap, a red flying fish suit, and an embroidered spring knife, together with Wang Hong, Minister of the Ministry of War, the newly appointed Yushi of Youqian Capital, Han Yong, the commander-in-chief of Guangxi, and officials from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Etiquette, came to Yu Qian. fragrant.
"... Woohoo! It is in accordance with the law of heaven to mourn his death and express his life; the calamity is in the front and stretches in the back, which is pleasant to the hearts of the people. With the name of the name of the world, he comforts the desert of the nine springs. The spirit is as refreshing as it is, Shang Ke learned from it."
In order to be able to read through this awkward piece of sacrificial text, Wanda pestered Qiu Zijin to do enough homework during this time.
Finally, after reading the last word, Wanda respectfully put the sacrificial text into the brazier and incinerated it.
The red flames licked the yellow silk, and a gust of wind blew the white ashes into the sky.
Just like what Yu Qian said in the song "Lime Yin": the fire burns like nothing.
Yu Shangshu, in the spirit of heaven, have you seen His Majesty's intentions?
Everyone raised their heads together, looking at the bright blue sky, red and white sun.
The empress dowagers can learn from the loyalty and righteousness of life;
Heroes of the Ming Dynasty, please bless your soldiers who are about to go to war!
"Uncle Lang, don't lower your head, look up and let me see you."
Zhu Jianshen pointed at the "big beauty" dressed up in front of him, clasped his hands together and laughed.
Wanda, who was covered in jewels and wearing pearl ear clips, raised her head resentfully, and looked at Wan Zhen'er, who was holding her belly and smiling, "Sister...don't laugh..."
"Oh, what a beauty, my younger brother is so beautiful. She's a real beauty, hahaha..."
Wan Zhen'er pinched the corner of Sipa, and wiped the tears seeping from the corner of her eyes while laughing.
"Excessive."
Wanda saw Qin Chang laughing so hard that he held on to the lattice window, shaking the whole window lattice, and pushed him angrily.
This guy!Early in the morning, he ran to Earl Xinle's mansion, saying that His Majesty and Empress called him urgently, and asked him to enter the palace immediately without delay.
He left behind a bunch of things at home and just walked into the Forbidden City with him, when he was dragged into an unknown palace by a group of little eunuchs and little maids, and changed into the current young girl's dress, and He put on a bunch of jingling jewelry and sent them to His Majesty and Empress.
Then there is the scene where the whole palace is laughing and laughing.
It turned out that the elder sister Wan Zhen'er heard that the reason why the case of the White Lotus Sect was solved so quickly was due to Wanda's women's spying in the nunnery.
His brother-in-law of the emperor asked the eunuch Qin Chang to lure him into the palace for the sake of smiling at Bo Mei, and put him in the clothes his sister wore when she was young, to make Wan Zhen'er happy.
Wanda thought to himself: Zhu Jianshen, your behavior is very characteristic of a fool... No wonder later history books will write that you are obsessed with Wan Zhener's beauty.
What is the origin of an idiom? ——The color makes the mind faint!
"This dress was worn by my concubine when she was young, does your Majesty still remember?"
Wan Zhen'er beckoned, and pulled Wanda with a stinky expression to her side, pointed to the pink soft satin bijia on his body, and touched the purple gold flower pattern on it, "At that time, the concubine followed His Majesty Live in Prince Yi's mansion. The rules in the palace are looser than those in the palace, and only courtiers and concubines can wear popular clothes for folk women."
She was talking about the days when Zhu Jianshen was deposed as the prince, and they were briefly expelled from the palace and moved into the so-called "Yiwang Mansion".
Speaking of it, those days can be described as frightening.
Wan Zhen'er was worried every day, afraid that Emperor Jingtai not only wanted Zhu Jianshen's crown prince, but also wanted his life.
She touched the dress with nostalgia, and found that she actually missed those days a little bit.
Since entering the palace at the age of four, until she was named a concubine, she always wore the uniform of a court lady.There is not a piece of clothing that truly belongs to "Wan Zhen'er".
Before and after, she is "Wan Shichang", the benchmark of court ladies, the queen mother's confidant, and the prince's nanny.
Only during those short days in Yiwang Mansion, she could wear the clothes of a folk girl and take Zhu Jianshen, who was only six years old, her future husband, out of this square world to breathe the air outside.
Although the air is full of bloody smell, and the wind and rain are about to kill.
"Remember, of course."
Zhu Jianshen squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "At that time, Minister Wan was very beautiful, and his delicate appearance could make Baihua lose its color. He is valiant and not inferior to a man."
"Nonsense, how old was Your Majesty at that time, how can you still remember the appearance of your concubine at that time?"
Wan Zhen'er chuckled, "It's a pity, now that my concubine is getting older, she can no longer wear such a delicate color."
"Master Wan is just talking nonsense, you will always be young and beautiful in my heart. Not to mention this dress, no matter how pink you are, you can wear it."
Zhu Jian held Wan Zhen'er's hand affectionately.
A single dog shivering from the cold ate a mouthful of 600-year-old imperial concubine dog food at close range.
But looking at Zhu Jianshen who was full of smiles, Wanda let go of the tight string in his heart.
The Bailian altar in the capital was eradicated, and the big problem that had been regarded as a confidant's trouble since Emperor Yongle was solved, the young little emperor finally felt that he had taken another step towards the goal of being a great emperor.
What's more, this time, millions of taels of silver and a thousand mu of well-cultivated cultivated land—the temple land of Guangji Temple—was obtained, together with various treasures confiscated from Miaoyin Nunnery.The proceeds from handling the case this time not only fully made up for the treasury and silver public funds embezzled by Ma Shilang over the years, but even 10,000+ taels more—half of the confiscated property went to the national treasury, and half went to the emperor’s private inner library.
Since he ascended the throne, Zhu Jianshen, who has been worrying about money, finally feels a little more financial.
After leaving Zhaode Palace, Wanda was finally able to change into this female attire.Under the guidance of Eunuch Huai'en, he walked to the Wuying Hall where Zhu Jianshen worked today.
"I saw my father-in-law smiling just now."
Putting on a bright red flying fish suit, Wanda said angrily, "Why does His Majesty only let me wear women's clothes, and Qiu Jiansheng also wore girl's clothes that day."
"Qiu Jiansheng is a scholar after all...and he is a supervisor who has not yet achieved a reputation, how can he enter the palace casually."
Wynn walked ahead, and couldn't help but raised the corners of his mouth.
He was on the horse that day, and he saw a girl standing at the end of the line with Jin Yiwei from a distance.I was still wondering who this person was.
Later, one of his subordinates sent him the documents of supervision and trial for his review, and only then did he realize that the so-called "girl" was actually a student of the Imperial College who had served in the Ministry of Criminal Justice.
Wynn knew it, and Zhu Jianshen naturally heard of his name.
I heard that Qiu Jiansheng can be regarded as a child prodigy, and he is very popular with the old scholars of the Imperial College.
The emperor loves and cherishes talents, especially young students.If his article can stand out in the examination, based on this alone, it is estimated that his ranking will not be so low.
Well, it turns out that scholars can't be bullied, so just bully me, a big bastard, right...
After hearing this, Wanda curled her lips.
"That's right, Eunuch."
Seeing that he was about to reach the Hall of Martial Arts, Wanda stopped in his tracks.
"That day, there was a little eunuch named 'Liang Fang' who was going to pass me a Mazar at the gate of Guangji Temple."
Wynn's eyelids twitched, but his face was impeccable.
"Yes……"
"This kid has a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. I don't think he is a good guy. Be careful, don't let him get close to my sister... Oh, no, close to your mother."
This kind of villain's face is too obvious.
Wanda watched Gongdou opera with his mother a lot in his previous life, so he felt something was wrong at that time.
Speaking of which, Wan Zhen'er has been scolded so miserably in history, except for literati who think they are righteous, they can't understand that she is so many years older than Zhu Jianshen, but she can dominate the harem.Maybe there is also the credit of these eunuchs!
Wynn looked in surprise at Wanda's upright face, smiled and nodded.
At first, I thought that Uncle Lang was just pure in nature.Now it seems that his vision of seeing people is not bad... The empress has such a brother to help outside the palace, so she has a lot less worries.
After entering the Wuying Hall, Wanda saluted Zhu Jianshen as usual, and he called him to the desk like a puppy.
Zhu Jianshen patted the little man next to him to signal him to sit down.
"I have a very good thing for you to do."
Zhu Jian lowered his head obliquely, showing a smile like an old cat eating fish.
"Good thing?"
Wanda narrowed her big eyes suspiciously.
It seems that he hasn't encountered any good things since he worked for the emperor.
After this battle, Wanda knew that she began to doubt whether she had the "Ultraman Physique" or "Conan Physique".
Especially this time, Wanda looked at the white bandage wrapped around her hand
After that day, the group returned to the Jinyiwei Yamen non-stop. Yang Xiuxian specially invited a famous doctor to treat him, and only then did he know that he almost injured his tendon.If it really hurts the bones, Wanda will not even think about holding a kitchen knife in the future.
Eunuch Huai En and Tan Chang didn't dare to worry Concubine Wan, so they sent the imperial physician to look at her overnight.All kinds of expensive sore medicines and Yunnan Baiyao were sent to Earl's Mansion like flowing water.
Knowing that there were no maids serving in his yard, Wynn specially sent two servants from the palace to serve.As of today, nearly half a month has passed for Wanda, the decadent days of drinking water and urinating without having to do it herself.
Just like that, when she entered the palace today, the empress almost cried when she saw his hands wrapped in layers.
If eunuch Qin Chang hadn't repeatedly assured that it was just a scary look, but in fact it was almost healed, Wan Zhen'er would probably be sad for a while.
Of course, he hasn't been to the Yamen for half a month, and he doesn't know what happened to the brothers in Beizhen Fusi.
Especially Deng Zongqi, this time the position of the Zongqi must be lost...
Wanda sighed with a bitter face.
"What's your expression? Every time you do something for me, do I lose your benefits?"
Zhu Jianshen raised his head and knocked on his forehead violently. Wanda hugged his head with his hands wrapped in white bandages, and looked at him pitifully. The funny look made the little emperor laugh out loud.
After this case, all Jin Yiwei's people involved in handling the case were promoted to a higher level.
Wanda himself, from the hereditary Jinyiwei Qianhu, was promoted from a fifth-rank official to a trial town governor.In the future, the brothers in the yamen will call him not "Wanqianhu", but the majestic "Wanzhenfu".
Yang Xiuxian wanted to remove the word "trial" in front of "trial Qianhu", but this time he finally achieved his wish and became a serious "Yang Qianhu" adult.
Even Gao Hui, this time, finally got rid of the title of Captain Wannian and became Gao Xiaoqi.Finally, from "not popular" to a grade seven official.
Although "Congqipin" is a little smaller than Zhimaguan, it is still an official status.Now he can command ten people under his command!
What does this mean? ——It means that in the future, Master Wan will have eleven people under his command...
"This time I listened to your plea, and pardoned Mrs. Song's mother and daughter. Otherwise, the whole family should be punished for the crimes committed by her husband. I thought that her mother and daughter were also deeply hurt by it. Love is inevitable. They are allowed to reconcile as husband and wife. These two people don't have to die with that Dechang."
"That's that, the emperor's brother-in-law has a kind heart, and now Sister-in-law Song's mother and daughter are all in the palace. From now on, there will be no shortage of food and clothing, and life will be like a fairy."
Wanda said flatteringly.
Although Mrs. Song's mother and daughter don't have to die with Dechang who has already been sentenced to Ling Chi, they are all sinful women after all, and they should serve as slaves in the palace.
But firstly, Mrs. Xiao Wan pleaded for mercy, and secondly, Mrs. Song had a great skill. What better place than the palace to display her official cooking skills?
According to the records of "Wanli Ye Huo Bian", since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, female officials have been selected to enter the inner court to take charge of affairs such as concubines and court ladies.The women's official organization is called the "Six Shang", that is, Shanggong Bureau, Shangyi Bureau, Shangfu Bureau, Shangshi Bureau, Shangbei Bureau, and Shanggong Bureau.
Mrs. Song is less than [-] years old this year, she can read and write, and she is good at cooking, so she can just enter the Shangshi Bureau.
Wan Niangniang is kind-hearted, and she heard from Wanda that their mother and daughter have had a hard time these years, and she brought a girl with her, so she simply asked Mrs. Song to serve her personally and become her close female officer.
Xiaohui followed her mother and grew up in the palace.There are other female officials and nuns in the palace who can teach her to read and write and various skills.It can be regarded as the best arrangement for their mother and daughter.
"Your Majesty, this 'officer' is not a 'maid', so she doesn't have to serve in the palace for the rest of her life. After three to five years, the dust will settle... Will Mrs. Song still be able to leave the palace to marry?"
Wanda asked this on behalf of Gao Hui.
Now that Gaohui has become Gao Xiaoqi, his salary has naturally increased.Although the goal of buying a house in Beijing is still far away, the matter of renting a house in Beijing has already been put on the agenda.
It was fine if they didn't know before, but now they know that their colleagues have had such a hard time, and the young man is about to turn 25. If this continues, he may be a bachelor for the rest of his life, so there is no reason not to lend a helping hand.
Originally, according to Wanda's intention, there are many vacant rooms in the Earl's Mansion, and Gao Hui can just leave one room to live in.
If you say that Yang Xiuxian still knows how to be a man, there is no reason for an official to live in the boss's house, and it is still the Earl's residence.
His Yang family has been operating in Beijing for many years, and there is a row of shops for rent and a small courtyard in the west of the city.The small courtyard was specially rented out to candidates who had entered the Beijing exam, and it was very convenient for no female relatives to come in and out.
Now that all three rooms have been rented out, and only one is left vacant, let's rent it to Gaohui at a lower price.But it's not cheap. When the exam season is over, those scholars will basically leave.At that time, the cleaning and looking after the house will be left to him.
There is also the shop in the lively place in front, and trifles such as noisy guests are inevitable on weekdays.If it is true that the landlord here is Jinyiwei Qianhu, it sounds too bullying.If someone really came to disturb the door in the future, Gao Hui would just stand at the door with his arms folded and his face darkened, keeping the matter in peace.
So Yang Xiuxian found a dormitory supervisor and security guard for his property in the name of renting a house.
Such an arrangement will not only make Gao Hui live in peace of mind, but also will not hurt his young man's self-esteem, which is the best of both worlds.
When Wanda heard this, she was convinced at the time, thinking that Mr. Yang is really good at being a man.In the future, I don't know which little lady is blessed to be able to marry such a husband.
He's tall, rich, and handsome, yet so ignorant... Hey...
It's a pity that Mr. Yang is so kind, but he just doesn't engage in basics.
"According to the rules of our ancestors, after five or six years of service in the palace, female officials can leave the palace and let them get married. If they are too old and don't want to leave the palace, they can stay in the palace. The place where the palace maids retire."
Zhu Jianshen said.
Then he frowned, and pointed at Wanda in surprise, "Uncle Lang... You, don't you think you've taken a fancy to Mrs. Song?"
What?
Wanda turned pale with shock.
"I met her the day she entered the palace to thank you. Speaking of which, although she is ten years older than you, Uncle Xiaolang, she still looks beautiful and graceful. Of course...you can't compare with my waiter Wan. Calculated, she is only 28 or 33 years old this year. If she leaves the palace at the age of [-] and marries Uncle Xiao Lang, it is entirely possible to have a child or something!"
Zhu Jianshen seemed to have discovered a big secret, and excitedly punched the palm of his left hand with his right fist.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
Wanda stretched out "Erkang's hand", "No..."
"Ah, then her daughter, Xiao Hui, will call you a father? If that's the case, Uncle Xiao Lang's daughter is the niece of Zhen and Chief Wan! Then she can't be raised as an ordinary little palace maid. Afterwards, I will ask someone to make arrangements for her to match her with the best nurturing mother and female academic officer. At least, she must be raised according to the etiquette of the Lord."
Zhu Jianshen said, and raised his eyebrows at Wanda, "It's okay, I understand you. Don't be shy, Uncle Lang. When the opportunity comes, I will make arrangements for you."
What do you know!
Brother-in-law love is not hereditary, brother-in-law, don't mess around? !
"No... no, really not!"
Wanda was so anxious that she almost stuttered.
"It's not me, it's not that I've fallen in love with Mrs. Song. Someone else, someone else! Really, I swear!"
Seeing that Wanda's face was flushed, Zhu Jianshen realized that he had misunderstood.
"Okay...it's a pity."
He sighed regretfully.
"However, I and Master Wan will help you with Uncle Xiaolang's marriage."
This is what Zhu Jianshen said from the bottom of his heart.
It is said that the eldest sister is like a mother, and she has never been filial at home for so many years, and she has not seen the growth of her two younger brothers. After all, it is Wan Zhener's eternal regret in her heart.
Now that Wantong has the Chen family, I won't mention it. Wan Zhen'er must take care of Wanda's marriage to the end.
"In this world, no matter what kind of girl is. Even if she is the daughter of the clan, as long as Xiao Lang likes it, I can give you a marriage. At that time, Minister Wan will buy you a bride price and a house. I will definitely let you do the whole thing." The most beautiful groom in the world."
Zhu Jian said with a deep smile.
Hearing the word "marriage", Wanda lowered her head silently.
He can't get married here, no matter who the other party is, he can't harm that woman.
In such an open day 600 years later, it was hard to tell about his sexuality, let alone in the Ming Dynasty when feudal etiquette was at its peak.
"Let's talk... I'm still young."
Wanda said in a dry voice.
"It's also...a good man should put his career first, and there is no rush for marriage."
Zhu Jianshen nodded.
Although this uncle Lang is only two years younger than him, when he was that age, he was already in charge.But he is the younger brother of Minister Wan, so in his eyes, he is just a child.
"Speaking of business, I want you to be an 'angel' once. This is a great honor."
"'Angel'?"
In Wanda's mind, there was a naked child with wings on his back.
Zhu Jianshen ordered Wynn to hand over the drafted edict to Wanda.
"I order you, three days later, to go to the newly built ancestral hall of Yu Shangshu to worship. A few days ago, I had already decreed that Yu Shangshu should be rehabilitated, and restored Yu Shangshu's eldest son, Yu Mian's position as the avant-garde deputy Qianhu. This is my You, on my behalf, will go to Yu Shangshu’s tomb to read the sacrificial oration written for Yu Shangshu. Isn’t this a good job?”
"This is a great job."
Wanda knelt down and took with both hands the brocade box that sealed the sacrificial oration and imperial decree handwritten by the emperor from Eunuch Wynn.
Ashamed to say, before the semi-literate Wanda came to this era, although he also vaguely remembered that there was a very upright official named "Yu Qian" mentioned in the Chinese documents, he was such a good man.But there's really no idea what he's actually doing.
When the name "Yu Qian" was mentioned, the first thing he thought of was Tao'er's partner, the Green Hat King of the Eight Iron Hat Princes, Uncle Yu...
That is to say, it was in this era that we learned about the Battle of Tumubao and the Battle of Beijing.Bazhou City, where he grew up, was once one of the battlefields of the defense war.
Wan Gui, his father in this life, even once fought against the Wala people on the gate tower of Bazhou City.And the person who commanded this battle and protected the Great Ming Dynasty was the Shangshu of the Ministry of War at that time, Lord Yu Qianyu.
To be able to read the sacrificial oration written for the emperor for the emperor is simply not "honorable".
It was beyond his wildest dreams that a small ordinary person like himself could face this glorious historical and immortal backbone of the nation in this way.
"Okay, let's go down. I still have a lot of things to do."
Zhu Jianshen waved to him and ordered Wynn to take him out of the palace.
Not long after the new year passed, the industrious Zhu Jianshen convened a group of ministers including the cabinet, six ministries, the governor's office of the five armies, and the inspector's office to discuss the official plan to send troops to Guangxi.It was decided to mobilize more than [-] soldiers from Hubei, Hunan, and Guangdong and Guangxi before May, with Han Yong, the Zuo political participant in Zhejiang, as the commander of the army, to go to Guangxi to fight against rebels and quell the chaos in the southwest.
This Mr. Han is also a genius type of character.When he was only 20 years old, he became a Jinshi and was awarded the title of censor by the first emperor.Although he is a scholar, he is extremely talented in military affairs and has participated in many pacification campaigns.Later, he was demoted from Beijing because of being implicated in the cabinet crony dispute.
After many years of ups and downs in the officialdom, Han Yong is only 43 years old this year, and he is in his prime.
In the tradition of the Ming Dynasty, when generals go out to battle, they usually appoint civil servants with imperial examination background as the commander-in-chief of the army.At the same time, eunuchs were dispatched to supervise the army.
Han Yong's talent and reputation are all top choices.And even though he is a scholar, he is not a scholar of Confucianism. He is flexible and knows how to advance and retreat. Although he is flawed due to party disputes, he still cannot hide his general talent.
So when Zhu Jianshen asked who could serve as the commander-in-chief of the Guangxi campaign, Wang Hong, the Minister of the Ministry of War at the time, resisted all opinions and recommended this young man.Zhu Jian deeply thought Xu.
Since the Tianshun Dynasty, the country has not experienced a major war. The memory of the "Civil Fortress Change" is too humiliating and tragic, like a sharp knife piercing the hearts of all the soldiers and civilians of the Ming Dynasty.
And knowing that Yu Qian died wronged, but because he had to worry about the face of the late emperor, he couldn't get a fair evaluation for a long time, which made the scholars' hearts chill and made the little emperor feel extremely guilty.
Zhu Jianshen has already made all the plans - this time with great fanfare for Yu Qian to Zhao Xue, it will surely restore the prestige of the imperial court and quell the anger of the people.Let the country unite as one and devote itself to the battle of Guangxi.
Just a few days ago, several teams of royal "angels" had set off to the places where Yu Qian's eldest son Yu Mian, adopted son Yu Kang, and son-in-law Zhu Ji were exiled, to restore their officials to their original posts and take them back to the capital.
Yu Mian wrote a letter a few days ago, begging the court to offer sacrifices to his father who died unjustly, and Zhu Jianshen complied.
He not only wrote the sacrificial text himself, but also gave him the posthumous title "Sumin".Posthumously conferred the special honors of Dr. Guanglu, Zhu Guo, and Tai Tuo.
The posthumous ceremony and sacrificial ceremony are scheduled to be held three days later, and it is also in line with the usual etiquette to have Jin Yiwei, who represents the royal family, appear as an angel.
Holding the brocade box, Wanda followed Wynn out of the Hall of Martial Heroes. After walking two steps, he found that Wynn did not take him directly to the Shunzhen Gate as usual, but to Taiye Pool, which was later called Ying Taiwan direction went.
"Sister Song?"
Seeing the woman who was smiling at him in a blue long-breasted gown and crown, Wanda was a little startled.
Compared with the appearance of holding the child in embarrassment at the gate of Guangji Temple that night, this Mrs. Song in front of her is really "reborn".
"Thank you, father-in-law."
Although Mrs. Song has only entered the palace for a few days, she has already mastered the etiquette in the palace and bowed to thank Wynn.
Wynn waved his hand and stepped back a few steps.
"Master Wan, I asked Eunuch Wynn to let me meet with him. Now that my little girl and I can have today, I have to thank you for your great kindness. "
As she spoke, she bent down and bowed down to Wanda.
Wanda hurriedly helped her up, "Sister Song, don't be so polite."
"grown ups."
Mrs. Song was really rude this time, and said sternly, "I have made peace with Song Tianyang, and I have nothing to do with him. Your Majesty has appointed me as the sixth-rank cook, and my lord still calls me 'Ms. Chen', or' Chen Sishan' let's go."
Just a few days ago, Song Tianyang, also known as Monk Dechang, had been sentenced to death by Ling Chi by Dali Temple.Zhu Jianshen issued an order to set up an execution platform in front of Guangji Temple, and cut him into pieces in public.
Ordinarily, Dechang was drugged by Wanda, so he should have died long ago.But it was really so dead, wouldn't it be too cheap for him.
So the palace sent a servant, went down to the prison, and eunuched him first.If that thing doesn't exist, naturally he won't be exfoliated, so he can be punished slowly with one knife at a time.
The monks of Guangji Temple and the nuns of Miaoyin Nunnery, including Lin Sanniang, were all imprisoned, waiting to be executed in autumn.The remnants of the White Lotus Sect who wanted to escape that day were also wiped out by Xu Xiaoqi's men.It can be said that within the entire capital, the White Lotus Sect has not found much water.
Although Xuan Lian died, she committed a heinous crime, and her body was hung on the flagpole of Guangji Temple for public display.
Now, in front of the square of the "former altar" of the White Lotus Sect in Guangji Temple.Now, on one side is Dechang who has been sentenced, and on the other is Xuanlian who has been brutally corpsed. The emperor wants them to be reviled by thousands of people, so as to serve as a warning to others.
"That... Chen, Si Shan Chen."
Wanda scratched her head in embarrassment, "You don't know, Gao Hui has become Xiaoqi now. In fact, he has been treating you..."
Ms. Chen stretched out her right hand, put her five fingers together, and put it in front of Wanda's mouth.
"Lord Wan, I know Xiao Gao's intentions. But, so be it. I decide to die in the palace, never leave the palace, let alone marry someone else."
"Why?"
Wanda was puzzled, "I just asked my brother-in-law... His Majesty, he said that female officials can get married."
"Because I don't want to."
Miss Chen raised her head.
"My lord, my maiden name is Chen. Before I got married, I was called 'Chen Shisandao'."
What kind of name is that?
Seeing Wanda's puzzled eyes, Ms. Chen explained, "My mother is 'Chen Twelve Dao', and my grandmother is 'Chen Shi Shi Dao'. Our Chen family's official cooking skills have been around since the early Northern Song Dynasty. Inherited from mother to daughter. If there are no accidents, my daughter Xiaohui will be 'Chen Shishidao' in the future."
"I haven't met my father. My mother told me when I was very young. The women in our Chen family are different from other girls. We don't need to rely on our husbands, and we can support ourselves by relying on our own skills."
Ms. Chen lowered her head, "When I was young, I didn't understand why other people had fathers, but I didn't. At that time, I didn't understand my mother's intentions. I felt that I should be like others, take care of my husband and teach my children, so that my own children can have a father in their lives." An 'ordinary' life with a mother. So after I met Song Tianyang, I accepted him and entrusted my entire life, including my family property, to him."
In the end, he met someone who was not kind, and almost fell into the fire pit because of his own harm.
"When I told my mother that I was going to get married, my mother was very disappointed in me. She told me that I was not her biological child, but adopted by her. All the women of the Chen family were adopted by the previous generation of heads. Abandoned baby. On the day I got married, my mother left the house with her kitchen knife. She said she was going to adopt another girl and raise a new 'Chen Shisandao'."
Tears splashed in a small yellow circle on the dirt floor.
"I heard what Xuanlian said that day, and heard that she was also an abandoned baby adopted by a nun. Only then did I realize how wrong I was. I let my mother down so much..."
Miss Chen covered her face and wept.
"So I won't get married..."
As Miss Chen spoke, she wiped away the tears from her cheeks, and said to Wanda with eyes full of deep meaning, "Lord Wan, I'm sorry, please tell Xiao Gao that I'm sorry. He... will meet a better girl in the future." .”
"And I will serve Your Majesty and Your Majesty well for the rest of my life to repay your kindness."
She said, bowed deeply to Wanda, turned and left.
Looking at her solemn and refusing back, Wanda felt deeply shocked.
He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but nothing came out.
Three days later, half a mile east of Chongwen Gate, inside Zhongjie Temple.
Wanda, wearing a black gauze cap, a red flying fish suit, and an embroidered spring knife, together with Wang Hong, Minister of the Ministry of War, the newly appointed Yushi of Youqian Capital, Han Yong, the commander-in-chief of Guangxi, and officials from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Etiquette, came to Yu Qian. fragrant.
"... Woohoo! It is in accordance with the law of heaven to mourn his death and express his life; the calamity is in the front and stretches in the back, which is pleasant to the hearts of the people. With the name of the name of the world, he comforts the desert of the nine springs. The spirit is as refreshing as it is, Shang Ke learned from it."
In order to be able to read through this awkward piece of sacrificial text, Wanda pestered Qiu Zijin to do enough homework during this time.
Finally, after reading the last word, Wanda respectfully put the sacrificial text into the brazier and incinerated it.
The red flames licked the yellow silk, and a gust of wind blew the white ashes into the sky.
Just like what Yu Qian said in the song "Lime Yin": the fire burns like nothing.
Yu Shangshu, in the spirit of heaven, have you seen His Majesty's intentions?
Everyone raised their heads together, looking at the bright blue sky, red and white sun.
The empress dowagers can learn from the loyalty and righteousness of life;
Heroes of the Ming Dynasty, please bless your soldiers who are about to go to war!
