I preached in the Six Dynasties

Chapter 495 Officialdom
The new emperor of the Ming Dynasty ascended the throne, and all countries sent envoys to mourn Emperor Xuande.

In the golden hall, a woman put her arms around the nine-year-old emperor and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, the one who will support His Majesty to ascend the throne today is your loyal minister."

She is only seventeen or eighteen years old, with a beautiful face and beautiful appearance.However, the innocence that a young girl should have is missing on her face. Instead, she has a vicissitudes of life and disillusioned temperament, which does not match her handsome face and fair and tender skin.

She is Jia Yuanchun, the concubine of the nine-year-old emperor Zhu Qizhen, and the emperor is the nine-year-old boy in her arms.

"The Empress Dowager will help me identify the loyal and the traitor." Zhu Qizhen raised his head and said innocently.

He really liked this concubine very much, because she was as gentle as water, caring for every possible way, and she was very tolerant of his temper.In fact, it's no wonder that any little boy doesn't want to have such a sister.The emperor of the royal family is also a human being after all.

Jia Yuanchun stroked his forehead and said with a friendly smile: "Although your Majesty is small, he is also a ninety-five-year-old man, how can he be manipulated by others. The emperor has a constitution in his mouth, and he will govern the country after birth. Your majesty looks like a dragon and a phoenix. He is the Son of Heaven, so there is no need for others to listen to the government behind the curtain."

Zhu Qizhen was bursting with pride, he straightened his chest and said, "Of course."

Immediately he collapsed again, and said helplessly: "Although I am the Son of Heaven, all goodness and filial piety come first, so I have to listen to the Empress Dowager."

The two of them were talking on the dragon couch, when suddenly there was a loud noise outside, "We are the emperor's close ministers, why can't we meet the emperor?"

"Your Majesty has an order. Because of missing the late emperor, I became sick from depression, and I will not see anyone!"

"Bold, do you know who is standing there? This is Zen Master Daoyan!"

The guard's head shook his head like a rattle, "No way, no way, His Majesty has the final say."

Dao Yan stretched out his hand, stopped his subordinates, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, my minister Yao Guangxiao begs to see you."

"Your Majesty, my minister Yao Guangxiao begs to see you!"

Yuan Chun hugged Zhu Qizhen in his arms, Zhu Qizhen didn't understand, didn't realize it, and didn't hear the sound from outside at all.

A group of eunuchs came from a distance, the leader was a boy with white hair and red lips, he said with a smile: "Master Yao, what are you going to do, force the palace?"

His voice was very feminine, and it made people feel uncomfortable when they heard it, as if listening to a stone rubbing against another stone.Especially when he was smiling, it was unbearable.

Behind Yao Guangxiao, the Commander of Jin Yiwei Liu Mian said sharply: "Hua Quan, if you want to narrow down the emperor to command the princes, you also have to look at how much you are. In front of the national teacher, do you have the right to speak?"

"The old slave is soft-spoken, but he has received the kindness of the Ming royal family, and he often wants to repay it with death. If someone wants to bully the weak and disturb the emperor, the old slave will desperately fight him to the death."

Behind him, the eunuch Wang Zhen smiled sadly, looking at Dao Yan and Jin Yiwei behind him.As long as he waved his hand, countless guards and fans would come out from every corner of the palace.

After all these years, Jinyiwei has been looking down on the scenery, so it should be the turn of the East and West Factory, right?
Jin Yiwei is the emperor's personal soldier, and has always been a sharp knife in Dao Yan's hands. The intelligence agency he and Zhu Di established together with the imperial court's original Jin Yiwei merged with the East and West Factory, and once became a nightmare for all corrupt officials in Ming Dynasty.

Liu Mian was furious. He took a step forward and was about to draw his sword, but Dao Yan stretched out his hand to stop him.Drawing a sword in front of the bedroom is an act of courting death. The current emperor is no longer the first emperor, and Jin Yiwei needs to change his style of behavior, otherwise he will be easily caught by the pigtails.

"National Teacher!" Liu Mian looked at Dao Yan puzzled, not knowing why he was suddenly discouraged.It's not that Liu Mian is so loyal to Dao Yan, it's purely that he has already established a good team, and he must ensure that Dao Yan can win, otherwise he will die.

In his view, this is a life-and-death struggle. If the emperor is not won over, he will be liquidated soon.

Dao Yan glanced at Hua Quan, smiled and said, "Very good, you are all very well."

With a wave of his hand, he led Jin Yiwei out of the palace.

Jia Yuanchun, who was on the dragon couch, just let go of the emperor. She had been trembling for a long time, but now she calmed down, and when she looked down, Zhu Qizhen had fallen asleep.

Jia Yuanchun stroked the emperor's cheek, he was so young, as old as his younger brother Baoyu.

Yuan Chun's fingers stroked lightly, and the corners of his eyes were already moist.

"Master, I see that you are frowning, maybe there is something bothering you, why don't you make a divination."

Dao Yan looked at Li Yu who was pretending to be a ghost and holding a fortune-telling banner, shook his head angrily and said: "You foreign Taoist priest, you can't cure my heart disease."

Li Yu put away the fortune-telling props from before, and sat down on the futon beside Dao Yan with a smile.

Dao Yan sighed, and said: "It's better for you Da Song, better than Cai Jing, and you will fall if you say it. Unlike Daming, these people have formed an unbreakable alliance of interests. If you talk about getting rid of one or two, you will be defeated." It is too difficult to kill everyone, and soon there will be new people to replace them."

Li Yu shook his head, Daming's problems were deeply rooted and difficult to solve.

Dao Yan said: "I only hate Taizu for killing less!"

Li Yu felt that it was still not suitable for him to intervene, so he did not follow this topic, but said: "As far as I know, there is a eunuch of high rank in your Daming Palace. Not small."

"Oh, by the way, his surname is Hua. This surname is not common. You should know it by heart, right?"

Dao Yan nodded, and said: "I knew it a long time ago, this person is Hua Quan. The Yuling Hall has penetrated the Ming Dynasty's officialdom full of holes, and I have worked hard to clean up the seven-year-old together with the late emperor. Seven or eight. Now that His Majesty has encountered an accident, I often suspect that someone secretly assassinated the king."

This idea coincided with Li Yu's. Li Yu lowered his voice and said, "Is there really someone so bold?"

Dao Yan was a little lonely, and said: "The first emperor didn't deserve to die"

Li Yu saw a clue. Dao Yan had been imprisoned in the Daxiangguo Temple for so long. Great changes had taken place in Daming, and he could not easily control the current situation.

Daming had a deep-rooted interest group—the civil official group, and they took advantage of the time when Dao Yan was arrested to secretly grow up.

"The first emperor's bones were not yet cold, and his son single-handedly overturned the original decree, restored taxes, and pardoned more than 1000 officials." Dao Yan said: "They also colluded with the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In order to deal with me, the inner court and the outer court have formed an unprecedented alliance Yes. You have experience in doing this kind of thing in Bianliang, can you teach me a few words?"

Sitting in front of him was Dao Yan who single-handedly led the change of Jing Nan, the prime minister in black, he was helpless, how could he do anything.

Li Yu shook his head and said, "I just want the emperor of Ming Dynasty to send someone to the next hero meeting. As for who is the emperor, I don't care."
