It was night, after Cen Zhu settled Jiang in the east building of the backyard, he stopped talking about today's events.Asked why Qing Yuan and Xiang Ming didn't come, Jiang Hou said that the time was too fast and the two of them fell behind. Cen Zhu was grateful and thanked Jiang Hou for her help again.

The two originally had similar temperaments, and they talked for a while before breaking up.Before leaving? Cen Zhu suddenly asked her cautiously, hesitating to speak: "Ma'am, do you know my mother?" Otherwise, how could even the monograms be fake?Empress Jiang noticed the hope in her eyes, smiled lightly, and gave an affirmative answer.Cen Zhu was so excited that it was hard to describe, the joy and tenderness that had been buried in his heart for a long time seemed to meet the dawn and shine brightly in an instant.

Seeing the light and heat in her eye sockets, Empress Jiang felt touched.Like a persuasive elder, he said shallowly: "I only met her a few times, and we didn't have a deep friendship. But at that time, she covered her face with a thin veil, and wore an upright green gown. She is dressed as a man. She is extremely accurate in timing, clever in means, and uncompromising. Although she has never shown her true face, I guess she must be a Yongguo? A wise beauty."

"Xun Bian, I talked with her for a few words, and found that she has insight into human feelings in her speech, but she is not immersed in the world. She is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and has her own set of cognitions and opinions on the world, which is fresh and unique. , standing alone. It’s like a wild horse that gallops thousands of miles without rein, but it’s not tame and docile enough.”

When she said the last few words, her tone was definitely not derogatory, on the contrary, there was a little bit of affirmation and appreciation like looking in a mirror.Cen Zhu was almost sure that she had known her mother before.Lu Su is such a willful, free-spirited and self-indulgent woman.Even in the final death, she repeatedly emphasized in her suicide note that she did not die for her father. She said that one day she would understand.Cen Zhu understood that, like her father, she was dying for the Tao in her heart.

Compared with her mother's uprightness, she is really ashamed.If my mother was abandoned one after another, she would definitely not do this? Waiting for the self-pitying children's attitude, it is bound to be broken with others.It's not like myself, who is obviously resentful like a resentful woman, and still wants to die in her heart.

Unknowingly, I walked from under the moon to Qingmei Villa.A few months later, the place has already been covered with a layer of dust.She frowned a little annoyedly, lit the lamp, and started to clean up from beginning to end, but ended up exhausted and collapsed on the love couch by the window.

Sighed, I was really inexperienced, and it took a lot of effort to do anything.

Looking at the moonlight outside the window, I just kicked off my boots and clothes and went to sleep.Night Breeze slowly brought the fragrance of osmanthus from the forest to the house, gradually disturbing her clear dreams.Where dreams and shadows overlap, the shadows of clothes and temples, hot fat and cool lips of people from afar cannot be wiped away.When I woke up at dawn, it was another empty autumn dream.Really lived up to this? The gloomy sky and the sore and unbearable cold.

"Ah!"

After several sneezes, she heard a knock on the door. She turned her head and looked out the window. It turned out to be raining, no wonder.

Rubbing my dry eyes, I got up and opened the door, looking at the woods covered by rain, I felt a bit of desolation appropriate to the scene.

It's so miserable, when Gu Qing is usually around, he can still bring her an umbrella.

He took a deep breath, no one? He didn't cry, and walked out of the forest on the muddy path as if angry.Curse one step at a time, go down, go down, make it bigger, it's better to smash me to death, and let someone come over to collect the body.

In a few days, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival. Because there have been many reports of dragon body violations, I thought there would be no big celebrations. The agenda of the Clinker Ritual Department is much heavier than in previous years.After thinking about it for a while, Cen Zhu understood the reason.At present, the frontier is unstable, and the capital is full of disputes. It is the time to calm people's hearts.It is bound to be more lively than in previous years.

Today, the morning court mainly came to discuss these matters, and all the ministers were bored to hear it.Cen Zhu peeked at Wang Zhongxu dozing off, and it was Fu Mingqi who bumped into him before he managed to wake up.

When it was time to go to court, Jiang Yiting thought that she had trouble with his hands, so he opened an umbrella and came to walk with her, Fu Minzheng and Zheng Langguan were also beside him.

Fu Minzheng looked at the bottom of the steps from a distance, and said with a smile: "This time, Mr. Hua is finally not here!"

Jiang Yiting too? Feeling that something was missing, he looked around, "I must have gone to northern Xinjiang with Shen Xi."

"He's not here for a while, I'm really not used to it!" Fu Minzheng raised his umbrella, showing a meaningful smile, facing Cen Zhuo.

Cen Zhu didn't respond, Jiang Yiting smiled and said, "Officer Zheng Lang from the household department hasn't said anything yet, you're not used to it yet as an outsider."

Zheng Langguan also smiled, "Master Fu is right, too. Mr. Hua will leave now, and the Ministry of Households will have a lot of leisure now."

Fu Minzheng said: "So? So he is quite respected by the emperor. This? Hua Jinpeng was transferred from the county to Beijing and directly entered the household department. He walked the same way as Brother Cen back then. I'm not sure, it will be Where is the next Cen Zhuo!"

Cen Zhu could hear that there was something in his words, and knew that he was reminding himself.For the emperor, no cronies are irreplaceable.Today she is Cen Zhuo, but tomorrow she might be Ji Wenkui.And this? Hua Jinpeng may be the second her.

After leaving the palace gate, the criminal office where Fu Minzheng went was in the same direction as the Metropolitan Procuratorate where Cen Zhu was, so he took over Jiang Yiting's errand and said goodbye to the other two.

Looking at the backs of the two of them going away, Zheng Langguan suddenly worried: "This? How could it be? With Master Cen's demeanor, if you look at the universe, you can't find a second one. This? Hua Jinpeng Heng No matter where you look at it, you can't compare to Lord Cen."

Jiang Yiting said: "That's exactly the case. Maybe Hua Jinpeng will go one step further than Cen Zhu in the future." As a bystander and a person who feels empathy at a certain level, Jiang Yiting understands it all too well. , Infinite disputes, the more eye-catching, the more unfavorable you are, on the contrary, the more ordinary, the more likely you will be able to walk steadily.More than anyone else, he hoped that Cen Zhu would stick down instead of floating up and become the target of public criticism.It's just that it's even more difficult in the right and wrong den of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.But who can predict what will happen in the future? We can only take one step at a time.

After Shen Xi and Zhao Chen left, the leaderless assassins of the Metropolitan Procuratorate were somewhat disinclined to attack Cen Zhuo.Du Yushi Lan Lie gathered everyone in the second hall and officially announced, "The childishness of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is over."

Cen Zhuyi? Listening to the description of these few words is quite appropriate.

The selection of officials in the imperial supervision system is different from that of other departments. The principles of "control the big by the small" and "control the top by the bottom".Such people have not yet formed a foundation in the court, and do not have an intricate network of relationships. When impeaching officials, they are often able to speak freely without being tied down.It is the so-called newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.But they are often taken advantage of by others because of their lack of political experience, leading to a dead end.From this point of view, when Landu Yushi was in charge of his subordinates, he really seemed to be leading a bunch of stupid boys.

For example, now, a group of people heard about "Uncle Huaiyang seized the people's land and let his son commit murder, but he was pardoned by the superior because of his relatives".

This? Marquis Huaiyang is the cousin of the late Empress Dowager Yan. When he was young, he hung out with King Xiao all day long. He was an ignorant bastard.In the past few years, I heard that he has grown a lot, but he didn't expect his son to continue to come out to harm the world.She didn't know what the emperor was thinking, but Cen Zhu knew that even if he forgave the other party, he might not be happy in his heart.Otherwise, the news would not have leaked to the Metropolitan Procuratorate so quickly.

Sure enough, under the indignation of the censors Xuehua wrote a letter, and under the sword of swords, Uncle Huaiyang and his son, who had been pardoned, were arrested and put in prison again. History, this is a crime plus a crime and so on.Today, "under pressure", I broke my heart in front of everyone, saying that I didn't take good care of the Empress Dowager Yan's family, and that I was in vain as a son of man.All the ministers comforted him one after another, saying that it was not the emperor's fault, that the Yan family was too disappointing and a failure of the grace of the emperor.Today, there is no mercy and pardon, and finally he was sentenced to exile, and his family was exiled for three thousand miles to the southwest.So far, the family line of the Empress Dowager Yan's relatives has been extinct forever in the court.

Cen Zhu didn't care about the fate of the Yan family. Since the death of the Empress Dowager Yan, the Yan family's decline has become a foregone conclusion.What she cares about is the plan to negotiate marriage for King Cheng today. It is said that he has already selected someone from the Cheng family in the southwest.

If Princess Kant and the Zhou family successfully marry, the East Palace will undoubtedly add another layer of strength. With the current suspicious character and the lessons learned from the Tu family in northern Xinjiang, even if he has no intention of abolishing the reserve, he will not sit idly by Northwest Zhou. Next to the family? The power of the prince sits big.And by marrying King Cheng and the Cheng family, the imperial court will have the power to check and balance the northwest.But at the same time, King Cheng also has the strength to truly compete against the East Palace.

Once today's decision is made to abolish the reserve and replace it with a new establishment, the Cheng family in the southwest will be the strongest support for King Cheng's ascension.

With generals inside, military power outside, and the status of an adult prince of the Li family, Li Jingnan undoubtedly met the "orthodox" expectations in the eyes of some people in the court.The elder sect headed by her mentor Pan Suiyong is always trying to find ways to bring down Donggong, a "heterogeneous" who violates the ancestral system.At that time, even if Li Jingchen still has the advantage of the East Palace, what can he use to compete with him?

Tu family?The Tu family has become an unknown now. If the Tu family collapses in the future, it may become the crime and burden of the East Palace.

It's ridiculous to say that, if it was replaced by any man in this position, even if it was any one who was so stupid that he would not eat meat, King Cheng would definitely not be able to threaten his position.

Just because she is a woman, the situation is so difficult.Her excellence is always inferior.Even the secular world forced her to admit that everything was her own fault, and that she didn't deserve it, how absurd and unfair it was.

Li Jingchen, will she just sit back and watch all this happen?

At the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, Jinshang really announced the marriage between Princess Kant and the Zhou family.But there was no mention of King Cheng's marriage, presumably it has not yet been negotiated.Or unwilling to arrange things so deliberately.After all, the imperial court now wants to deter northern Xinjiang, so it cannot be divided internally.

The people from the Zhou family were naturally rejoicing, but Princess Kangde didn't see anyone all night. She looked a little embarrassed today, and said that the princess was feeling a little sick occasionally and couldn't attend, but Cen Zhu knew that where Li Jingxu was willing to give in, it must be demolished in the later court. home!

At the same time, the East Palace sent people thousands of miles away to send a Jade Buddha to Jinshang, as well as a Jade Guanyin statue hand-painted by himself.Today, after ordering someone to unfold the jade statue, he actually stood there staring at the portrait for a long time, his eyes filled with bewilderment.Then he ordered someone to put the painting away, and asked some rare questions about Li Jing's current situation in the southwest.In fact, these things have already been reported in private by the Southwest Special Envoy, but the effect of repeating it in court is not the same. For many speculations that Jinshang and Donggong have turned against each other, this move has somewhat eased the rumors. These tense father-daughter relationships also added a bit of human warmth to this ruthless royal family.Later, Cen Zhu carefully inquired, and according to the servant next to the emperor, the Avalokitesvara painted in the East Palace looked very much like the former empress in terms of charm and temperament.

Cen Zhu understood with a smile. She thought of the two titles of Jianchun and Kant, which were chosen by the emperor himself for the two princesses. They coincided with the word "Jiankang" in the capital of the country. How much the emperor cherished his titles back then. How ironic the two palm beads are now.

But many people have forgotten that even if the emperor intends to abolish the Eastern Palace, the Eastern Palace is still his biological daughter after all, the direct bloodline left by the previous empress.The broken bones are still connected with the tendons.As the saying goes, don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face, at least we should give the world? People a legitimate explanation.

Now Li Jingchen is almost cultivating to become a master.
