Wang Wanyi did not go back to the palace to report to His Majesty, but went to the Xiji Factory first.

When he first entered the gate of the West Factory, he realized that most of the confidantes who did not follow him in the West Factory disappeared overnight, and only a few subordinates who had accompanied him through life and death were left behind. In the past few years, Li Suran, Zhu Zhaoyan and Song Shixuan have done a lot in the court.

Led by Li Suran, the corrupt officials were eradicated aggressively. Anonymous whistleblowers impeached and made meritorious deeds. Some people who were greedy for life and fear of death gave up their lists in order to survive.

The palace gate was stained with blood, and a scarecrow made of human skin was inserted at the gate of the city for three years as a warning and to imitate others.

Most of the officials who had some personal relationship with Wang Wanyi secretly formed cliques and took advantage of his power to defy anyone. After going back and forth, there were only a few mung bean officials who were relatively innocent but did not have much real power.

Dai Jinlin, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, was sent to a prison to wait for his punishment. Wang Xuan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, was exiled to the barbarians, and Liu Qingyang, the prime minister, was suspended from his post pending recovery.

Not only that, not only the forces on his side, but even the concubine Wan Gui was basically wiped out.

A three-foot white silk, a cup of poisoned wine, choose one of the two.

Li Ranran's younger sister, Li Qingran.After half a month, Zhu Zhaoyan will marry as the queen, Princess Wanyan Tinglan of the Kingdom of Jin will also come to Daming to get married in a few days.

Song Shixuan became the magistrate in Yongchang and won the hearts and minds of the people. Zhu Zhaoyan supported the generals and civil officials under him. He had an imperial examination every three years and two general elections to clean up the situation.

Those officials who once had a blood feud with him naturally wished to take this opportunity to uproot him.

Receiving power, securing power, stabilizing power.

At this moment, the Son of Heaven is the real emperor.

[In this life, I will not have a queen or heirs, this is my promise to you. 】

You are not joking, it is extremely ridiculous.

Wang Wanyi walked out of the West Alley, and when he entered the palace gate, he couldn't help but stop, looking back, the ground was covered with snow again.

The first time he set off on the expedition was in this snowy day, Zhu Zhaoyan saw off the army, and the second time he went on an expedition, it was still a snowy day. He originally thought that returning to Beijing this time would be like the last time he returned to Beijing, with the scorching sun burning like fire but his heart warming Overwhelmed, I didn't expect that after six years, it would still be a cold winter.

For some reason, this winter has been extraordinarily cold.

On the way, the court ladies and internal officials still treated him with respect, just like before.

Wang Wanyi walked to the gate of Qianqing Palace, and the servant at the gate of Qianqing Palace immediately saluted Wang Wanyi respectfully.

"See Lord Admiral, the slave will go and tell His Majesty that Lord Wang is here."

Seeing Wang Wanyi, the servant was surrounded by a murderous aura that seemed capable of killing people. The servant was so frightened that he lowered his head and did not dare to look directly at him.

Wang Wanyi waved her hand sullenly and said. "No, you go down first."

"Here." The waiter backed away after a cry.

His Majesty said that as long as Wang Changgong came today, he can let Wang Changgong come in directly without notification.

As soon as Wang Wanyi walked into the palace door, he found that the door of Zhu Zhaoyan's usual discussion place in Qianqing Palace was not closed tightly, but left a gap instead.

He has always been cautious, and it is impossible for him to be so careless.

"Your Majesty, the Kingdom of Jin was defeated in this battle. Although Wang Zheng has made great contributions to this battle, he manipulated the government with ill intentions and put His Majesty's face in a bad place. Now we have removed most of Wang's party from the court, Your Majesty... ..." said Liu Yuan, the new Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

The Ministry of Officials is really full of disasters. In the past few years, the position of Minister has been changed three times, and the current Liu Yuan is the eldest brother of Liu Yi, the servant who died in Xichang.

"Your Majesty, Wang Wanyi's dog must not stay!"

Li Suddenly: "Your Majesty, we have been planning for so long, just waiting for Wang Zheng to trust His Majesty, Your Majesty should not be soft-hearted."

"Now the border is calm and there is no fighting. When His Majesty takes back the military amulet, he will be charged with eunuch slavery and then completely removed." Ma Youshen said.

In these years at the border, no matter how much Ma Youshen wanted to get rid of him, he endured it because of the overall situation.

"Could it be that Your Majesty still wants to let Wang Zheng do whatever he wants?" Li suddenly lowered his eyes and asked back.

"I sent Wang Wanyi to the border to supervise the army for six years. The purpose is to take back all the rights I gave him bit by bit behind his back. Now that the big event is about to happen, how can I be soft-hearted."

Zhu Zhaoyan glanced at the figure outside the door inadvertently with his dark eyes, and said in a cold voice. "I am the one who hates him to the bone."

"I endured the humiliation and burden under the eunuchs just for today's moment, but Wang Zhenggang returned to Beijing after attacking the Kingdom of Jin from the border, and he has already won the hearts of the people all over the world. The soldiers at the border, the soldiers of the [-]th Regiment, and the common people all over the world are heartbroken."

"Now is not the best time to get rid of Wang Wanyi. As for how to do it, I have my own considerations and considerations in my heart. There is no need for the adults to talk about this matter with me."

Li suddenly paused, then bowed his head and bowed emphatically. "I hope His Majesty can stick to his heart and put the country and society first."

Hearing the voice in the room, Wang Wanyi only sneered, and then called out softly to Zhu Zhaoyan inside.

"His Majesty."

The few people inside except Zhu Zhaoyan were all taken aback, there was no notice from the servants, and none of them thought that Wang Wanyi would enter the Qianqing Palace.

How much did Wang Wanyi hear the words just now?

"..."

Zhu Zhaoyan didn't feel flustered, but calmed like never before. "come in."

"Master Wang." Seeing Wang Wanyi coming in, the three lower-ranking officials except Li Suran all bowed their hands to him.

"Your Majesty and several adults are discussing state affairs?" Wang Wanyi walked in to look at Zhu Zhaoyan and then at Li Suddenly and said with a half-smile. "Just now at the door, I only heard what Prime Minister Li was saying... the country is the most important thing?"

Zhu Zhaoyan looked at the others. "You go out first."

"No need, since the lords are here to discuss state affairs with His Majesty, then the minister will step back after reporting to His Majesty, and continue to discuss state affairs with the lords without disturbing Your Majesty."

Wang Wanyi reached into her cuff, took out the soldier talisman in her sleeve, knelt down on her knees, looked closely at Zhu Zhaoyan's with a pair of dark eyes, and said loudly.

"Your Majesty, I did not disgrace the emperor's order. I led my army to return to Beijing in triumph in the battle against the Jin soldiers at the border. Now the border is safe and the people are no longer worried about the war. After six years of this war, time flies like an arrow. I feel very happy." I am tired and unable to lead the Twelfth Regiment of the Ming Army for His Majesty. It is a crime to live up to His Majesty's trust in the minister, but I have more energy than I have. I want to return the talisman of the Twelfth Regiment to Your Majesty. Please look at it tonight. If you have meritorious deeds, you should suspend your duties and return to your hometown to cultivate yourself."

"If there are foreign thieves coming again in Ming Dynasty, I will still take the lead for Your Majesty, regardless of life or death."

"Returning to the hometown?" Zhu Zhaoyan slightly opened the corner of his mouth, and said neither salty nor bland.Afterwards, he raised his hand to pick up the soldier talisman in Wang Zheng's hand, and said while playing with it carefully. "Wang Zheng, do you still have a hometown?"

Yes, he is gone. He has been in the palace since Yao was exterminated at the age of six, and his memories of the past are even blurred. His hometown is Yanjing, the palace, and Zhu Zhaoyan.

"Go down, I have something to say to Factory Supervisor Wang," Zhu Zhaoyan said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Li suddenly looked deeply at Wang Wanyi with his hawk-like eyes, and turned to pass him by.

After Li Suran and the others retreated, Zhu Zhaoyan said coldly to the two servants outside the palace gate. "Everyone who serves outside the hall should also go down. No one should come near without my permission."

"Here." There was a vague response from outside the door.

After the silence, Zhu Zhaoyan walked to the table in front of Wang Wanyi and sat down, straightened his body, opened and closed his phoenix eyes and looked at Wang Wanyi coldly.

"I haven't seen you in six years, I miss you very much Wanyi."

These thirteen words express longing, but the premise is after ignoring the coldness in the tone.

"The minister misses His Majesty too." Wang Wanyi said.

"I know Wang Zheng and you are outside."

"Being an emperor, one person is the sky, the power is in your hands, judge the time and situation, make the best use of things, make the best use of people's talents, have a broad heart to accommodate the world, and a broad mind to accommodate hundreds of rivers."

Zhu Zhaoyan has a kind of nobleness in his bones, even though his face is exquisite, the arrogance and majesty exuded from the inside out of his gestures make people dare not look directly at him, making people unable to see happiness or anger.

This official uniform and crown uniform separated them very far.

"The emperor's collapse, how can you allow others to snore... My couch is too small, I'm afraid it won't be able to accommodate you, Wang Du."

Zhu Zhaoyan raised his head, stared into Wang Wanyi's eyes and said.

"Your Majesty has uprooted the power of the ministers in the court during the past six years, and condescended to be noble by his side. It is really too high for the ministers."

"Your majesty has given you today. If your majesty is afraid of me, you don't have to be vain. Your majesty can take back whatever favors you give. Wanyi doesn't have any complaints. Wanyi is not someone who can't be taken care of or let go."

Wang Wanyi paused, then spoke again. "May I ask you three questions, Your Majesty?"

Zhu Zhaoyan was taken aback for a moment, then lightly raised the corners of his mouth, raised the teacup on the table to his mouth and said. "ask."

"Your Majesty, is the crown still as heavy to you as before?" Wang Wanyi asked.

Zhu Zhaoyan: "As Wanyi said, if you want to sit on his seat, you must bear his weight."

Wang Wanyi: "Your Majesty, you wear this crown very firmly."

"Second question, Your Majesty, are you serious about marrying Li Suran's younger sister as the empress, and the princess who came from Najin Kingdom as a concubine?"

"really."

Zhu Zhaoyan lowered his arms and put them on his legs, his wide sleeves covered his fingers curled in his palms.

"The last question, you...have half of your affection for my minister been true?"

After a while, Zhu Zhaoyan put down the forehead teacup in his hand, looked up at Wang Wanyi with those cold black eyes, and said.

"It's been used from the beginning to the end, are you satisfied?"

"I see." Wang Wanyi nodded with a sad smile, and said bitterly.
