Jingtai Fenghua

Chapter 12 Persuading Zhu Qiyu

Wang Ying was very excited when she heard what Lin Cunde said and wanted to ask if she had any other ideas.

Lin Cunde pondered for a moment and said: "I don't have any other ideas at the moment, and my nephew doesn't know much, but some details still need to be considered. Shibo, the father-in-law and female officials in the palace are extremely powerful, and their relationships are intricate. Be careful, something may happen, so please be careful, the Queen.

My nephew remembered that the Chief of Ceremonies had great power, and he was also a person serving His Majesty. When these people were eliminated, His Majesty had to ask what he wanted. If they dared to resist, they must find a reason to kill them, and then replace them with His Majesty and His Majesty. The Queen trusts people.

Among the maids, there are many female officials. These female officials are not familiar with the Queen. If they can take the initiative to find the Queen, they will keep it for now to see the consequences. If they continue to be arrogant and domineering, then deal with them to death. The Queen The harem needs to establish its authority, and everyone in the palace must know that the queen is now in charge of the harem. If necessary, please send your Majesty the Imperial Guard to support you.

As for those father-in-laws who colluded with the palace maids and wanted to take revenge on the Queen, they must be eradicated and never stay. My nephew estimated that if they were killed three or five times, these people would be honest. They were not stupid. Before the Queen had established her power, they would They may be arrogant, but once they establish their authority, those people are also afraid of death.

However, the first step is to ensure the safety of the Queen and His Majesty. The people serving around them must be trustworthy. Otherwise, the nephew is worried that they will take risks, and even said that if they collude with the man from Kangshou Palace, they may not cause harm. Your Majesty, but the Queen does not dare to say it, so you must be careful. If you can succeed this time, then the Emperor's return will not be of much use. "

Wang Ying also stood by and listened. After Lin Cunde finished speaking, Wang Ying nodded and said: "My nephew is right, he is right!"

"Your Majesty has a weak character. He needs the Queen to always say in his ears that this battle is a matter of life and death. If you hesitate even a little bit, you will be killed. Your Majesty must be firm, otherwise, the harm will be endless. Maybe King Tan will do it. No, so your majesty must firmly support the queen!" Lin Cunde continued to remind Wang Ying.

Wang Ying nodded again and said: "These words, I will tell the Queen, eh, what a pity, you are keeping your filial piety at home, otherwise, I would have to send you to serve as an official to help His Majesty!"

When Lin Cunde heard this, he waved his hands quickly and said: "I still can't get on the stage, I haven't studied enough!"

"But it's better than me, nephew. Having said that, you must study hard! Remember it!" Wang Ying looked at Lin Cunde expectantly and said.

"Okay!" Lin Cunde nodded and said.

"Okay, I won't sit here anymore. I'll go to the palace and talk to Lin'er about these things!" Wang Ying couldn't sit still. What's more, if he had such an idea, he would definitely go and talk to the Queen. of.

Lin Cunde also stood up. He originally wanted to send him to the gate, but was stopped by Wang Ying: "You are in the study. It's cold outside. It's not good to catch a cold. It's not my first time here. You don't need to be so polite. That's it. You rest!"

After saying that, he strode away.

When Wang Ying arrived at the palace and told Wang Meilin everything Lin Cunde said to him, Wang Meilin was also very excited. He also stood up and walked in the hall.

"Queen, what do you think of Cunde?" Wang Ying stood up, looked at Wang Meilin and asked.

Wang Meilin stopped, looked at Wang Ying with a smile and said: "Dad, you have to take good care of Cunde in the future. If there is anything missing in his family, you tell me and I will take it. Cunde is indeed a scholar, one move after another." The moves, moreover, hit their vital points at every turn, Dad, do you know that although my daughter is still so busy these days, she feels much more relaxed, and His Majesty also comes here every day!"

"Okay, okay, just feel relaxed. Madam, don't worry. Cunde is a member of the family, and this child is also a trustworthy person. He is also very filial to the minister and his wife, and he is worthy of Mei Chun's trust!" Wang Ying heard what Wang Meilin said. ,very happy.

"When you go back, say thank you to me. After he observes his filial piety, if I am still the master of the harem, I will definitely live up to him. What's more, he is my sister-in-law!" Wang Meilin stood there, smiling. said.

"Hehe, okay, this kid has an idea!" Wang Ying was very happy when she heard what Wang Meilin said.

"Hey, if he were not my sister-in-law, I would want him to come to the palace and serve me!" Wang Meilin said with a smile.

"Ah!" When Wang Ying heard this, she was dumbfounded and said quickly: "That won't work, that won't work. Cunde is your uncle's only surviving son, and he is also your sister-in-law. You can't do this kind of thing!"

"I know!" Wang Meilin chuckled, and then said to Wang Ying: "Let him study hard, and then he will be able to help His Majesty in the future!"

"Okay, okay, Queen, you must not have such thoughts, your sister likes him very much!" Wang Ying still said uneasily.

"Hehe, I know, I was joking just now. How could I do such a thing?" Wang Meilin quickly explained with a smile.

"Well, that's good, that's good!" Wang Ying felt relieved.In the evening, Zhu Qiyu came to Kunning Palace again and went straight to Wang Meilin's study. At this moment, Wang Meilin was looking at the list of the 24 yamen in the inner palace. Behind these lists were simple information about the father-in-law. In addition, the information about the six bureaus and one division of the female officer was also Beside.

"Queen, you're still busy. It's getting late, don't be too tired!" Zhu Qiyu saw Wang Meilin looking at the information and quickly persuaded with a smile.

"Ah, I am here to pay my respects to Your Majesty!" When Wang Meilin saw that it was Zhu Qiyu who was coming, he quickly stood up and wanted to salute.

Zhu Qiyu went over to support Wang Meilin and prevented Wang Meilin from kneeling down: "No courtesy, there is no need for so many courtesy here! What are you looking at?"

Zhu Qiyu picked up the information and looked at it. When he saw the list, he said: "Do you still want to lay off those people? Isn't it a bit too hasty? More than a thousand people were laid off before, and more than a thousand people can be replaced!"

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, we may die without a burial place!" Wang Meilin said with a sad face.

"Ah!" Zhu Qiyu looked at Wang Meilin in shock.

"Your Majesty, we have no way out. If Your Majesty is not the emperor, he will not be able to return to Prince Xin's Mansion. He will never be able to go back! Then he will end up with his body and head missing, and those three children will probably suffer as well. Your Majesty still needs to have a firm attitude on this matter, otherwise, your family and I will not be able to escape disaster!" Wang Meilin stood there with sad eyes and said firmly.

Zhu Qiyu was so frightened that he didn't know what to say when he looked at Wang Meilin.

"Your Majesty, please let me analyze this with you!" Wang Meilin pulled Zhu Qiyu to sit down and said.

"No, that's not the case!" Zhu Qiyu still didn't believe it, and was already retreating in his heart.

"Your Majesty, if you were just the regent, maybe when the Emperor comes back, we can return to Prince Xin's Mansion. However, these civil servants and the Queen Mother have pushed you to this position. There are two ways to go, or you can always be the emperor. , Or, the Supreme Emperor has come back, and you and I are both dead. Moreover, Your Majesty, I would like to ask you, are you willing to return power to the Supreme Emperor? Are you willing?" Wang Meilin sat there, speaking softly to Zhu Qiyu said.

Zhu Qiyu moved his lips and wanted to say something but couldn't.

Wang Meilin held Zhu Qiyu's hand and said softly: "Your Majesty, there is no need to say more. I know your Majesty's thoughts. Since your Majesty has such thoughts, I will make your Majesty realize his long-cherished wish even if he is shattered to pieces. For the sake of my husband and for that." With three children, I have no way out, so I ask Your Majesty to support me. If something cannot be done, I will bear it all, and the fault is my fault!"

Wang Meilin looked at Zhu Qiyu firmly.

Zhu Qiyu held Wang Meilin's hand tightly, his eyes couldn't help but moisten, and he looked at Wang Meilin closely, wanting to say something, but he was so moved that he was speechless.

"Your Majesty, I am incompetent. There is not much I can do. My only wish is that the harem is peaceful and everyone in the palace is trustworthy to your majesty. Otherwise, those civil servants and generals in the previous dynasty still don't know how to bully your majesty! The inner palace is peaceful and peaceful. If there is no trustworthy person, how can the important force that was restrained by the previous dynasty be restrained?
If this is the case, Your Majesty is an emperor who was influenced by the officials of the previous dynasty. The people only know about the civil servants and military generals, but they don’t know about Your Majesty!After laying off these people, I will also promote some young people or previously frustrated people, provided that they are loyal to His Majesty! "Wang Meilin continued to whisper. She knew that this was also Zhu Qiyu's heartache.

If the civil servants and generals in the previous dynasty were left unchecked, they would form cliques for personal gain and sideline the emperor. If you want to extend the emperor's power, you must use eunuchs to contain the civil servants and generals. Eunuchs have no heirs, so they can only be loyal to themselves. Do things for yourself.

This is also the reason why the emperors of the Ming Dynasty trusted eunuchs so much. This also resulted in eunuchs interfering in politics and eunuchs in power.

"But if you do this, I'm afraid the Queen Mother will not allow it easily!" Zhu Qiyu still looked at Wang Meilin worriedly. He was still a little afraid of Queen Mother Sun. Queen Mother Sun had too much power, and the shadow of her youth was still there.

"Your Majesty doesn't need to worry about this. You just need your Majesty to allow me to mobilize some of the imperial guards! I may kill some disobedient father-in-law!" Wang Meilin looked at Zhu Qiyu with a smile and said.

Zhu Qiyu saw that she was different from the past. In the past, Wang Meilin also looked sad when talking about this matter. Now, Wang Meilin is so confident, so he asked tentatively: "Do you have an idea?"

"Yes!" Wang Meilin nodded gently.

"Oh?" When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he immediately became interested. He held Wang Meilin's hand and asked eagerly: "Tell me, what's the solution? I have been thinking about the solution in my spare time for a few days, but I don't have the energy. It’s limited and I still can’t figure it out!”
