Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 438 Annei Sun's Family Takes Out the Draft and Accelerates the Rites to Death

The Empress Dowager Sun also understands the principle that the inside must be settled first in order to fight against the outside world. Before solving the emperor who caused the problem, the surrender faction inside the Sun family must be dealt with first.

Fortunately, according to Queen Mother Yisun, there are not many surrender factions in her family.

It happened that Sun Zhong, Marquis of Huichang, sent someone to take his great-grandson Sun Ming back to his residence again, and Sun Jizong's daughter-in-law and daughter brought Sun Ming to say goodbye.

Empress Dowager Sun no longer wanted to stay this time, but ordered Gao Ping to load the prepared gifts into the carriage and send the Sun family back home together.When everyone left, Empress Dowager Sun secretly exchanged a look with Sun Jizong's daughter-in-law, which contained both deep expectations and a strong sense of warning.

Since all the palaces around the Yinghua Hall were being cleared and demolished, the Sun family left the north gate of the Yinghua Hall and headed east, walked through the Xuanwu Gate, and left the Forbidden City.

After sending off her natal family, the Empress Dowager Sun still beat and cursed.

Gao Ping added fuel to the fire, and reported the demolition of the palaces in detail to the Empress Dowager Sun, which caused the Empress Dowager Sun to sigh:
"It's really a crime to demolish all the good palaces. A large group of palaces from Kunning Palace and Qianqing Palace to the west, except for the Yinghua Palace in the northwest corner, are almost completely demolished.

Ben Gong really regrets the past, if Zhu Qiyu was born back then, Ben Gong would have carried him to the palace to raise him, so there is no such thing as today.

It's better now, and I don't know who taught him, but this evil breed actually avoids the Forbidden City like a snake and a scorpion.All the forces in this palace are in the palace, so if he went to the western suburbs, it would be beyond his reach.

Bengong remembers that the emperor seemed to be raised in Wang Jin's house at the beginning. Wang Jin was one of the most trusted eunuchs of the late emperor, and he didn't even give me face.

At that time, Bengong felt that Zhu Qiyu couldn't afford to make any troubles, so he didn't chase after her and cut the weeds and root them out.

In the end, Zhu Qiyu survived.

It's all right now, and it's a serious problem. "

Empress Dowager Sun's words are so straightforward, it is another test for Gao Ping.

If Gao Ping went to report to the emperor, it would be regarded as the end of his life.

If Gao Ping passed the test, then Empress Dowager Sun would assign some confidential errands.

There is no way, the original confidants of Queen Mother Sun have almost been eradicated by the emperor.Even if Gao Ping waited by his side for a short time, he could only bite the bullet and use it.

Gao Ping was not stupid, and immediately expressed his loyalty: "Queen Mother, the servant was ordered to contact Chen Xiang the day before yesterday, but Eunuch Chen instead wooed the servant for the emperor, and handed over a small courtyard in Mingyufang to the servant to take care of. Among them, not only was there 1 taels of silver in the account room for slaves to control, but even a jade carving that Empress Qian cherished most was placed in the small courtyard.

The servant girl pretended to agree to Eunuch Chen, and then asked him some tricks.It turned out that Eunuch Chen wanted his servants to closely monitor the Queen Mother's movements and report to him in time.

Most importantly, Eunuch Chen also wanted his servants to help investigate the rumors about Emperor Gong Rang's life experience, and whether Eunuch Xing was secretly working for the Queen Mother.

The matter is so important that slaves dare not specialize in it.How to act, I also ask the empress dowager to show me. "

Empress Dowager Sun nodded in praise and said: "You did a good job, you can accept those things with peace of mind. Emperor Gong Rang has also grown up compared to before, and the entanglement of the inner court is even more important than the struggle of the previous court.

In the past, the Emperor Gongrang was too simple, he only knew how to send the ministers to the imperial prison, lock them up for a period of time, and then release them again.Those methods are worse than the women in the palace.

Hey, I don't understand how such a son was born, and how he was brought up like this.

If you look at Zhu Qiyu, he is usually cheerful and looks harmless to humans and animals.In fact, killing the Wang family, destroying the entire Prince Tan's mansion, completely eradicating the grass and roots, and eliminating future troubles forever; civil officials beat Ma Shun to death, and executed the ministers involved on the spot without blinking an eye.

In addition, Yang Hong was exterminated by the family, and Hu Wei and Li Xian were killed in the pit.

Every time Zhu Qiyu made a move, he was clean and quick.

This time it's all right, if San Yang is completely dealt with, it's time for Bengong to come to an end. "

Gao Ping lowered his head, not daring to answer.

Empress Dowager Sun shook her head and sighed heavily: "It stands to reason that if you want to protect yourself, you should protect Sanyang first. It's a pity that there is really no reason for what Sanyang did.

And Ben Gong himself, who was caught by the emperor's death spot of "killing his wife with a concubine", pursued and beat him fiercely, and he couldn't make sense of it.

Hey, let's try our best to choose the queen first, and hold a grand wedding ceremony for the emperor while the vassal king enters the capital to congratulate him.

You go to remind the Ministry of Rites and cabinet ministers tomorrow, and the draft will start immediately.Start with Zhili, Shandong, Shanxi, and Henan.Those who are too far away in Guangxi, Guangdong, Yunnan, etc. forget it.

It doesn't need to be so complicated. Within a month, the provinces will send Xiunu to the capital.

There is one more thing, the construction of the emperor's Zi Palace should also start, and you also reminded me. "

Silent all night.

In the afternoon of the next day, the emperor's order to dig Yang Shiqi's grave was known to everyone, causing a sensation in the court and the public.

Anyone with a little brain can see what signal the emperor is sending.

In addition, the Ministry of Rites suddenly shortened the selection process, eager to select a queen.

No matter how dull a person is, they can see now that the dispute between the concubine and the concubine is about to heat up.

But who wins and loses, no one really dares to be sure.

Before, the emperor Gongrang, the crown prince, and the prince were all seriously ill one after another. This side is still not good, and the emperor there is also sick, and he can't even go to court.

Moreover, the emperor didn't even see the imperial physician, so no one knew how the emperor's condition was.

Now the forces of all parties are ready to move. Once there is conclusive news about the emperor's condition, it will be the beginning of choosing sides.

While eating dinner, Zhu Qizhen listened to Chen Xiang's performance.

Chen Xiang first recounted the Queen Mother's words and deeds in detail.

Gao Ping did not hide anything, and told Chen Xiang exactly what the queen mother said and what she did.

Nowadays, most of the people in the inner court can't figure out what is true and what is false, what is false and what is true.

Everyone can only grasp a small part of the information, and cannot see the whole picture of the whole chess game.

As far as this small part of information is concerned, it is still false news mixed with real news.

Even Zhu Qiyu, a chess player, can't see the truth anymore, let alone others.

Zhu Qizhen was not very interested in choosing a queen, but after listening to a few words, he told Chen Xiang: "You don't need to tell me about choosing a queen in the future."

Chen Xiang was very puzzled when he heard this.

Zhu Qizhen explained: "You forgot, on the first day I returned to the capital, all the officials greeted me, and my younger brother hosted a banquet at Fengtianmen to welcome me.

At that time, I met my younger brother's two little concubines, the twin sisters, Hua'er.

Right now, these trash from the Ministry of Rituals have been searching and picking for a long time, and the women selected can't even match a finger of the younger brother and princess. Can they be favored, or they have to obediently go to the cold palace to eat ashes. "

Chen Xiang sang an anti-tune in a rare way: "My lord, that's not what you said. The Ministry of Rites selects a group of outstanding women from all over the country, and then sends them to the capital for further screening.

The ones who finally became queens and noble concubines must be the most outstanding women in Ming Dynasty. They are all beautiful and beautiful, and they are all well-educated and courteous, beautiful and beautiful. How can the emperor not love them when they see each other. "

Zhu Qizhen sneered angrily: "Please explain to me quickly, it's not like I don't know what kind of stuff the Ministry of Rites is.

Just look at those women in mine. They really think of themselves as personalities. Every saint is polite, and they wait for a bed. This will not work, and that will not work.

I can only turn off the light and lie on the bed.If you let her lie on her stomach, you are treasonous, and you are violating the saint's etiquette.

It's just that a benevolent and virtuous king like me doesn't have the same knowledge as them.

If they were still like this in front of my younger brother, my younger brother would have set them on fire.

Women's problems are all habitual. "

Chen Xiang laughed helplessly, not daring to refute anymore.

Zhu Qizhen continued to sigh: "A lot of times, I still admire my younger brother. He really dares to think and do it. The things he does are enjoyable to watch.

If I win this battle for the throne, let my younger brother go back to Shandong to live comfortably. I will give him the throne of King Qi. "

Chen Xiang hastily called out the emperor's sage, but he didn't agree with it in his heart.My own emperor just said that he was very happy, if the emperor really lost, there would naturally be some people willing to serve the emperor and do the 'everything difficult'.

At most, they are the emperor's daughters, who are lucky enough to survive.

As for the emperor and the emperor's youngest sons, they had to follow the usual practice.

Chen Xiang continued to play: "Your Majesty, according to the latest military report, there is another Miao chaos in Guizhou, and Ming Dynasty is about to fight again."

Zhu Qizhen asked curiously: "Didn't my brother send Wang Ji to lead the army south?"
