"Treacherous ministers?" Emperor Chongzhen pointed his finger downwards and shouted angrily, "I see that you are the traitorous ministers!"
In the Wenhua Hall, Emperor Chongzhen shouted angrily: "Come and tell me, are there any treacherous ministers who donated all their wealth? If so, then I want such a treacherous minister. Are there any, and are there any more?"
No one expected that today, as usual, a bunch of memorials to impeach Duke Xingguo would be handed in. As a result, Emperor Chongzhen became furious and went into a rage. This caught all the ministers off guard, and they did not dare to bear the emperor's anger face to face. They could only lower their heads to see if anyone else would face the emperor.
"Haha, traitor?" Emperor Chongzhen said, and couldn't help but sneer, "Don't think that I don't know that Mr. Jin is in charge of the Imperial Guard. Are you afraid? You just want to do everything possible to impeach him, thinking that I will still be as confused as before. ? Let me tell you, in this world, the person I believe in the most is Mr.! No matter how many impeachments are made, it will not be effective. Let’s leave it like this..."
At this point, Emperor Chongzhen slapped the imperial case and said loudly in a decisive tone: "No matter what the reason is, if anyone dares to impeach Mr. again, I will tell him to get out! If you don't believe it, come and try?"
He was very angry because he had been troubled by rumors these days. Since your husband left the capital, not a single thing has been accomplished. Everyone in the court has been surrounding the rumor to impeach your husband. If this continues, it will be strange if the Ming Dynasty does not perish!
These ministers below have never seen Emperor Chongzhen being so angry. He even said such irrational words as telling anyone who dared to impeach Mr. Wang to get out.
Not to mention, none of the civil servants in the Wenhua Palace have the courage to test the emperor's words. Is it just words or can he really mean what he says?
So, each of them became a clay Bodhisattva! As for face, those who work in the officialdom are as thick as city walls, so it doesn’t count. Isn’t it even the case of Lou Shide of the Tang Dynasty, who did what he did and left his name in history?
In the Wenhua Hall, after Emperor Chongzhen finished speaking, it became very quiet. It was so quiet that you could hear the hurried footsteps outside the hall clearly.
"Your Majesty, Duke Xingguo is back!"
Emperor Chongzhen was looking gloomy when he heard the report from the chamberlain who came in from the palace door, but he was overjoyed and said a little unexpectedly: "Ah, sir is back, okay, okay, just come back, hurry up, where is sir?"
Hearing this, the civil servants in the palace lowered their heads and looked at each other, a little speechless.
"Sir, you are still waiting for orders at Meridian Gate!"
"What?" When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he immediately said: "Didn't I say that if you want to see me, you can enter the palace at any time? Oh, by the way, I forgot. From now on, I will give you the opportunity to ride a horse in the Forbidden City. This will save you a lot of time!"
Having said this, he seemed to have just remembered that there was a group of courtiers in front of him. Thinking of what they had just done, he couldn't help but snorted, threw up his sleeves and walked away, obviously wanting to talk to Duke Xingguo alone.
Once he leaves, these civil servants no longer need to stay in the Wenhua Palace. They raised their heads one by one and walked out of the hall. At the same time, most of them shook their heads and sighed.
From what happened just now, they discovered that at least in the short term, it seemed impossible to overthrow Duke Xingguo, unless another major change occurred.
I don't know who it was among these people, but suddenly murmured to himself: "It seems that only the gods and bodhisattvas in the sky can cure it!"
No need to ask who is being treated, everyone present knows who it is!
………………
Not long after, Zhang Mingwei was led by his chamberlain to Wuying Hall.
Emperor Chongzhen had been waiting impatiently for a long time. When he saw him, he quickly stood up from his throne, walked over to greet him, and said repeatedly: "Sir, you are finally back..."
As soon as he said this, he noticed that Zhang Mingwei had a tired look on his face. He was startled. Then he remembered and quickly changed his words: "Sir, you came all night, it's really hard work!"
After finishing speaking, he also remembered what Zhang Mingwei was doing, so he asked casually: "How is the situation in Fangshan County being handled?"
In fact, in his heart, compared to the situation in the capital, things in Fangshan County are really insignificant. However, since it was Zhang Mingwei who handled the matter, he suppressed his eagerness and asked about the situation over there first.
"It went smoothly, everything was as expected." Zhang Mingwei listened and said with a smile, "What is the situation in the capital now?"
After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen immediately replied: "Sir, you don't know. Just after you left, the rumor started again. I asked Wang Chengen to thoroughly investigate the source of the rumor, but found nothing. He couldn't tell the reason for what the gentleman pointed out before. Come on, it really gives me a headache. I know that those people are here for Mr...."
"No!" When the invisible person Zhu Yuluo, who was just behind Zhang Mingwei, heard this, she couldn't help but said, "After receiving the order, sir, he hurried back all night, but on the way he met the thieves who assassinated him..."
"What?" Emperor Chongzhen was shocked when he heard this. He quickly took Zhang Mingwei's hand and asked nervously, "How is it? Sir, is he injured?"
God took pity on him and sent him down out of thin air. Although he came from four hundred years later, what's the difference between him and a god coming down to earth to save the Ming Dynasty?
If the husband had not appeared, the Ming Dynasty would have been destroyed in two years, and he would have hanged himself, which would be a disgrace to his ancestors!
Today, we need to rely on Mr. Zhong to revive the Ming Dynasty and save the nation. Even if something happens to anyone, nothing can happen to Mr. Zhang!
Zhang Mingwei could understand Emperor Chongzhen's concern, but he couldn't stand a grown man acting like this, so he broke away his hand without leaving a trace and said with a smile: "There was no danger, I just injured a brother from the Yongwei camp. .”
After finishing speaking, he asked about the specific situation in the capital. It happened that Wang Chengen, the eunuch of the Supervisor of Ceremonies and the governor of the East Factory, also rushed over after hearing the sound, so the four of them started talking about the matter together.
It has to be said that the thief hiding in the dark took advantage of Emperor Chongzhen's killing of Zhou Bian and seizing the title of Jiadingbo to stir up trouble. Because of the precedent of Marquis Wu Qing, he was really aggressive.
Emperor Chongzhen lost his temper just now in the Wenhua Palace. It was not the result of too much pressure. Others don't know Zhang Mingwei's explanation of Wu Qinghou's events at that time, so of course they believe it more. There is really a lot of pressure inside and outside the palace.
Emperor Chongzhen finally said to Zhang Mingwei with longing eyes: "Sir, what do you think we should do about this matter?"
If Zhang Mingwei were asked to investigate the case of the fifth emperor at that time, to be honest, even though he talked about it eloquently at first, he might be blinded in actual practice. But now, this time, the series of encounters gave him a goal in mind.
However, no matter what, he did not dare to vouch for it. After thinking for a while, he said: "Give me a copy of the previous investigation information of Dongchang. I will take a look at it first. For the prince's side, it is better to check the palace first to ensure that the Safety."
When Wang Chengen heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, but he did not dare to show it. He just suppressed the joy in his heart and nodded repeatedly with a worried expression: "Of course!"
After finishing speaking, he thought for a moment and then asked: "I wonder if you have any advice, sir?"
After hearing this, Zhang Mingwei frowned and thought for a while before saying: "From the perspective of the maximum effect of the thieves making trouble, they may target Queen Zhou. However, from the perspective of the easy prey for the thieves, who in the palace is not healthy? Okay, that’s the most likely way for them to succeed!”
The fifth emperor was also frail and sick at the beginning, but after rumors spread, his condition really worsened and he died.
After hearing this, Zhu Aao immediately became nervous and said to Emperor Chongzhen: "Father, my daughter goes to accompany the queen!"
"Well, go ahead and comfort your mother!" Emperor Chongzhen nodded after hearing this.
As soon as Zhu Aina left, the worry on Emperor Chongzhen's face was obvious. He said to Zhang Mingwei: "Concubine Tian Guifei is not in good health now. Sir, will she be okay?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Mingwei remembered. He remembered that Concubine Tian died of illness this year. It seemed that she gave birth to four sons, but only one survived. She was so sad that she contracted a serious illness and died.
By the way, the fifth son of the emperor was born to Concubine Tian.
After hearing Emperor Chongzhen's question, Zhang Mingwei didn't want to hide it, so he told the truth and said: "Concubine Tian is under special protection. If possible, your majesty can reveal to her the true situation of the emperor's fifth son and inspire her desire for revenge." If you don’t feel sad all day long, maybe everything will be fine.”
According to the information of later generations, this Tian Guifei was good at all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was omnipotent at Cuju, riding and shooting. In other words, according to her physique, her life would not be so short-lived under normal circumstances. After all, there is no need to go out to work. How much risk can there be in staying in the palace all day?
Emperor Chongzhen actually loved Concubine Tian the most. When he heard this, he immediately ordered Wang Chengen to protect her.
Afterwards, he and Zhang Mingwei continued to discuss the next matter and listened to Zhang Mingwei's analysis.
………………
"Get out of here, you bunch of trash!" In a deep mansion somewhere in the capital, a man shouted angrily as he looked at a group of people kneeling in front of him.
I really waited for such a good opportunity, but in the end I didn't get it. How to make him not angry!
Seeing the group of children getting out of the house, he scolded Zhou Yuji again. If he hadn't been protecting him, he probably would have succeeded.
While he was cursing like this, the steward of the palace came over cautiously and reported to him: "Sir, Duke Xingguo has returned to Beijing and has now gone to the palace!"
Considering that Zhang Mingwei might go to the capital overnight, but failed, it was expected that he had returned to the capital now.
Therefore, the steward who reported the news was scolded and left by him.
Not long after, he began to scold the civil and military officials of the DPRK again. He couldn't even win such a good opportunity. What a bunch of pigs!
I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly, the steward who was scolded away came again. This time, his expression was a little panicked. Before he even entered the door, he was already saying, "Master, something is not good!"
