Zhu Qiyu left Nangong with his family. Before leaving, he ordered Wang Cheng and Shu Liang to go to the cabinet to deliver the decree and all officials to come to Nangong to pay their respects.
After getting on the chariot, Zhu Qiyu leaned on the soft couch and asked the two beloved concubines: "How are you doing? What do you think, my beloved concubine?"
Su Xi rushed to reply: "My husband is really the reincarnation of Zhuge Kongming. The Nu family secretly approached the pillar in the palace and smelled it carefully. The smell was really pungent.
We have lived in a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters for a long time, and the contrast is particularly obvious when we first enter this kind of man-eating palace. "
After Zhu Qiyu heard this, he put his hand on his forehead and smiled bitterly. 'Man-eating palace', 'contrast', these are all words of tiger and wolf.
Qianxue asked curiously: "Do the Empress Dowager and Emperor Gongrang's family really not see the problem?"
Zhu Qiyu spread his hands helplessly: "Those people in Lao Zhu's family, well, I can't say. They are just too confident, to an unbelievable level.
Think about it, even though my eldest brother only has a little bit of thoughtfulness, he wouldn't be so arrogant as to go out and conquer in person, and have people capture prisoners inexplicably.
This is a vivid portrayal of being ordinary and confident to the extreme.
You must not underestimate their stupidity, otherwise you will not understand many things at all. "
Qianxue nodded as if she had some understanding. After saying this, Emperor Gongrang seemed really stupid, so stupid that it felt unreal.
However, Su Xi took out two gauze scarves from the secret compartment on one side and handed them to Zhu Qiyu, signaling her husband to put aside his worries and do business first.
So there was no words all the way.
But when Wang Cheng and Shu Liang came to the cabinet, they saw that Chen Xun, Wang Wen and others did not deal with official business, but all gathered together to talk.
After Wang Cheng finished delivering the edict, he was about to return to the Supervisor of Ceremonies.
Shu Liang plans to return to Dongchang. Although Dongchang acts very low-key nowadays, hundreds of officials can hardly detect Dongchang's existence on weekdays.
But after such a big thing happened, we still had to secretly strengthen the monitoring of the government and the public to prevent the emperor from making sudden inquiries.
Shu Liang didn't feel at ease just because he was a former member of Nidi. There are thousands of eunuchs in the imperial city, and many of them want to be the admiral of the East Factory.
When the emperor first ascended the throne, Cheng Jing often mentioned Shu Liang and others, so although Shu Liang was young, his mind was relatively clear.
In particular, Cheng Jing gave Shu Liang and others a big warning: before the emperor moved into Prince Yin's Mansion, he also had a group of eunuchs who served him personally.
Although the emperor tried his best to keep his distance from these eunuchs, there was no doubt that these people existed.
After these eunuchs grow up, they will also gather their cronies.
Therefore, the number of the emperor's real direct line eunuchs is quite considerable, and they are hidden among the various supervisory bureaus in the inner court. They are definitely a force that cannot be underestimated.
In other words, Wang Cheng and Shu Liang were both brought to the forefront by the emperor to attract others' attention. Once he does not satisfy the emperor, he may be replaced at any time.
Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.
After listening to Cheng Jing's teachings, Shu Liang became more cautious in his actions.
However, Cheng Jing and Shu Liang both thought too much, and Zhu Qiyu himself had no intention of touching Shu Liang and others. Because these four little eunuchs have passed the test of history, Zhu Qizhen immediately chopped off the heads of the four of them as soon as he came back to power. Obviously, none of them had betrayed Jingtai.
After all, it is so rare for people like Feng Bao and Wang An to get through the troubles of others. Most of the personal eunuchs who have followed the emperor since childhood are reliable to a certain extent.
When Chen Xun, Wang Wen and others saw that Wang Cheng and Shu Liang were leaving immediately after delivering the order, they quickly stepped forward and stopped them.
Wang Cheng's first reaction was to wave his hands repeatedly: "Don't ask us, gentlemen, we are just little eunuchs running errands for the Holy Father."
When everyone heard this, they felt a burst of ridicule in their hearts: You are the eunuch in charge of the ceremony, at least in name, the head of the eunuchs in the inner court, and you dare to say that you are just an errand boy.
Chen Xun and others forced Wang Cheng not to leave, but Wang Cheng had no choice but to reply: "The imperial doctor said that it is not serious for the Emperor and the two princes to be respectful, and they will recover after some time of recovery.
Moreover, the Holy One has decreed that all the princes and civil and military officials can go to Nangong to pay greetings at any time without asking for instructions. What else do you have to worry about? "
Chen Xun and others felt calm after hearing this.
After all, as soon as Emperor Gongrang returned to the capital, he and the two princes fell ill at the same time. This was too scary. It is easy to cause unnecessary associations.
Originally, the government and the public had great concerns about whether the two emperors could live in peace for a long time.
He was just afraid that something would come his way. Even if one or two princes died this time, the government and the opposition would fall into turmoil again.
The stable situation that was finally achieved was broken again.
Wang Cheng and Shu Liang took advantage of Chen Xun and others to relax and left in a hurry.
Chen Xun and Wang Wen also hurriedly organized civil and military officials to go to Nangong to pay their respects.
At the same time, He Yi came to Cheng Jing's house with more than a dozen maids and servants.
Cheng Jing's mansion is quite impressive. Although Zhu Qiyu had doubts about Cheng Jing before, the reward was not less than Cheng Jing's. Houses, mansions, gold, silver and jewelry were all given, and they were definitely generous.
Hearing that He Yi had arrived, Cheng Jing ordered his servants to open the middle door and personally brought Cheng Kai out to welcome him.
Cheng Jing, who had always had a cold and peaceful personality, now walked forward quickly and greeted He Yi with a smile on his face.
Although Cheng Jing's qualifications are much more profound than He Yi's, who made He Yi the examiner of this year's examination, and who made Cheng Kai the new scholar in this year's examination.
Nominally, He Yi is Cheng Kai's tutor, and Cheng Kai's family is from a scholarly family, so he shouldn't pay attention to respecting his teachers.
I also pity the hearts of parents in the world.
He Yi repeatedly raised his hands and smiled at Cheng Jing: "Wan Sheng congratulates Cheng Jing. Cheng Jing is very happy."
Cheng Jing thought that He Yi was congratulating Cheng Kai on becoming a Jinshi, and quickly replied: "It's all thanks to God's grace, I'm just lucky. Besides, I should have gone to thank you as my master, but I'm vulgar and didn't dare to act rashly." It’s so rude to come to the door.”
He Yi hurriedly gave in and said: "Mr. Cheng is flattering me. Anyone who is a teacher but not a teacher is just because of the wrong love from the Holy One. This junior is one year younger than Brother Shunqing. From now on, it will be enough for brothers to be worthy of each other."
Brother Shunqing is good at poetry and poetry, and is talented. He has long been in the emperor's heart, and his future future is limitless. "
Cheng Jing and He Yi complimented each other again before entering the main hall hand in hand.
The two of them sat down separately, and He Yi got straight to the point: "Wan Sheng is here to deliver the message today."
Cheng Jing and Cheng Kai quickly stood up and ordered someone to prepare the incense table.
He Yi waved his hands hurriedly: "No need to kneel, no need to kneel. Your Majesty has specifically ordered that you don't need to be polite when you become a duke. Wan Sheng can just tell you the emperor's decree directly."
The formal edict has now been sent to the Ministry of War. Tomorrow Chenggong can go directly to the Ministry of War to report. "
Cheng Jing was stunned when he heard this and was a little confused: What is my relationship with the Ministry of War? Report to the Ministry of War? Could it be that the emperor wants to appoint me as a supervisor? Then there is no need to report to the Ministry of War.
He Yi hurriedly explained: "The Holy Emperor has officially rebelled against Cheng Gong, and appointed Cheng Gong as a doctor in the Qing Li Division of the Ministry of War's arsenal, returning to the ranks of civil servants."
Cheng Jing's head buzzed, and he suddenly became unsteady on his feet. Seeing this, Cheng Kai quickly stepped forward to support him.
Cheng Jing was stunned for a long time, and then confirmed to He Yi with a serious face: "Xueshi He, are you not joking with me?"
