The Wanli Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was extremely rebellious

Chapter 52: Queen Mother Li Cries

Wanli felt so relieved when he took down Concubine Wang Gong.

He was humming a little tune and about to go to the imperial study to review memorials when Li Xuancheng suddenly rushed up like a thief, his face full of fear and said, "Your Majesty, it's bad, the Empress is here."

Why are you afraid of her?

We've all grown up, okay?

Wanli said calmly: "Where are the people?"

Li Xuancheng said with a guilty conscience, "Didn't you say that people from the Cining Palace weren't allowed to enter the Qianqing Palace and Kunning Palace? I asked Brother Shan to block her outside the main gate."

Hahahaha, smart.

Shan Sinan followed the example of Qi Jiguang and only cared about being loyal to him as the emperor and didn't care about anything else.

Empress Dowager Li certainly had no way to deal with Shan Sinan.

Upon hearing this, Wanli couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said, "Uncle, this is a good trick. From now on, let General Shan deal with her."

Li Xuancheng shrank his neck and said, "Brother Shan can only hold her back. You know the Queen's temper. She won't give up until she teaches us a lesson."

You still think of us as kids.

I am no longer a child, and she has no right to teach me.

Empress Dowager Li must have come for Concubine Gong and the prince.

This woman is extremely stupid. If you don't get rid of her, she won't leave.

Wanli thought about it, then nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I'll go and take a look. Do you want to come with me?"

Hearing this, Li Xuancheng shook his head and said, "Forget it. Since Brother Shan is here, I won't go with you."

After saying that, he ran away.

Seeing this, Wanli shook his head slightly, then walked towards the gate with his hands behind his back.

It was almost noon now, and the sky was clear and cloudless. The warm sunshine didn't make me feel cold at all.

However, along the way, many of the soldiers from the Beijing camp were secretly shrinking their necks.

They were not cold, but there was a tigress roaring outside the door.

There were very few people in the palace who were not afraid of the tigress, and all the soldiers in the Beijing camp were afraid of her.

As for the reason, it was his father Emperor Longqing's fault.

His father, Emperor Longqing, was a weak man. When he was a child, he was afraid of his mentor Gao Gong. When he grew up, he was afraid of his wife. He allowed these two people to do whatever they wanted inside and outside the palace, and spoiled them so much that their tempers were extremely bad.

Gao Gong's bad temper can be said to be the worst in the officialdom of ancient and modern times. Xu Jie, Chen Yiqin, Yin Shidan, and Li Chunfang can be said to have all been scolded back home by Gao Gong.

In five years, he scolded away four cabinet ministers, two of whom were the chief ministers of the cabinet. This shows how bad his temper is.

This guy even had a fight with Yin Shidan in the cabinet duty room, which made Yin Shidan so angry that he retired and returned home in his forties!

As a result, Gao Gong, who had such a bad temper, was directly expelled from the court by Empress Dowager Li, Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao. This shows how fierce Empress Dowager Li was.

This woman is really vicious.

Before he reached the gate, he heard the woman's roar.

"I told you to get out of here, are you deaf?"

Shan Sinan seemed to be really deaf and had no reaction at all.

"This is the Imperial Palace! How dare you stop me? This is outrageous! Get out of here!"

When Wanli walked out of the gate and took a look, he couldn't help but laugh and cry.

There were several eunuchs lying on the ground, and Empress Dowager Li was standing not far away, pointing at Shan Sinan's nose and cursing him.

Shan Sinan stood in the middle of the gate with his arms outstretched, not moving.

It was obvious that Empress Dowager Li had ordered the eunuchs to force their way through, and he must have been knocked down by Dan Sinan.

This woman probably saw Shan Sinan's skills, so she only dared to stand not far away and curse, and did not dare to come over.

When Empress Dowager Li saw him, she immediately roared, "You disobedient and unfilial creature, how dare you allow someone to stop me? Tell him to get out of here!"

Do you think I'm a pushover?

If I don't teach you a lesson, you won't even know who you are.

Wanli said coldly: "This is the Qianqing Palace. I am the master here. I say no one is allowed to enter. General Shan did the right thing. You have no right to tell him to get out."

I'm not qualified?
Empress Dowager Li roared in anger, "I am the Empress Dowager. I am the master of this palace. I will immediately dismiss him from his post and have him removed from the palace."

You are mentally ill.

Wanli continued coldly, "I am the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. I am in charge of the world and the palace. What are you in charge of? Do you want to be the emperor?"

Oh my, I'm so angry.

Empress Dowager Li was so choked that she didn't know what to say. She gasped for a moment and suddenly roared, "Where's Xiaotao? Where's Luo'er? Hand them over to me immediately."

Do you still want to use them to deal with me?
Wanli said impatiently, "Concubine Gong is my concubine, and Luo'er is my son. Why should I give them to you?"

Empress Dowager Li ignored him and continued to roar, "Did you lock them up? Do you want to murder them?"

You are really sick.

Why would I harm my own wife and children? Wanli was quite annoyed and said, "Do you think I'm the same as you, thinking only of harming others?"

Upon hearing this, Empress Dowager Li howled hysterically, "Have you already harmed them, you beast?"

How dare you call me a beast?

If I don't teach you a lesson today, you really won't know who you are.

Wanli's anger rose immediately.

He didn't care and roared angrily: "Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, but you want to kill your own son. You are a beast."

Are you calling me a beast?
Empress Dowager Li seemed to have lost her mind.

She howled madly, "You beast, you didn't even let your own wife and children go. Are you still human?"

You are a pig, you believe everything.

Wanli cursed angrily: "Do you have a brain? How can you believe such words?"

Empress Dowager Li continued to howl frantically, "Where are Xiaotao and Luo'er? I want to see them alive or dead today."

You are really hopeless.

Okay, you want to see someone, right? I'll let you see for yourself how stupid you are.

Wanli simply said, "Come here, please ask Concubine Gong and her son to come over."

Empress Dowager Li was stunned when she heard this.

Are they mother and son okay?

After a while, Concubine Wang Gong came out quickly, holding her precious son in her arms, and timidly bowed, saying, "Greetings, Mother."

They are really fine!
Empress Dowager Li was stunned for a long time before she waved her hand and said, "Xiao Tao, go, take Luo'er and I back to the palace."

Concubine Wang Gong glanced at Wanli, then gritted her teeth and said, "Mother, the Emperor has allowed me to live in the Qianqing Palace first."

What does this mean?
Empress Dowager Li immediately pointed at Wanli and said coldly, "Is this beast threatening you?"

Concubine Wang Gong shook her head repeatedly and said, "No, Your Majesty is very good to me."

How is this going?

Empress Dowager Li was stunned for a moment, then asked sternly, "Xiao Tao, why don't you come back to the palace with me?"

How do you say this?

Concubine Wang Gong was so frightened that she shrank her neck and dared not speak.

Wanli looked at her weak, pitiful, and helpless appearance and simply waved his hand and said, "Come here, send Concubine Gong back to her bedroom."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Wang Gong immediately turned around and fled.

Seeing this, Empress Dowager Li couldn't help but roared, "Stop, Xiaotao, why don't you listen to me?"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Wang Gong ran away even faster.

She is just timid, not stupid.

After Wanli explained it to her in detail, she understood that Zhang Hong, Zhang Jing and Zhang Cheng did often come to slander Empress Dowager Li, and that this group of people wanted to use them and their son to oppose Wanli.

She was captured by Wanli both physically and mentally, so naturally she would not listen to these people anymore.

Seeing this, Wanli said coldly: "If she listens to you, she will be used by Zhang Siwei and others just like you. After all, you are the empress dowager, and those people dare not do anything to you.

As for her, she will die miserably after being exploited, you know?"

This is historical fact.

In history, Concubine Wang Gong died a very tragic death.

Empress Dowager Li howled like a madman, "Oh my God, how could I have given birth to such a disobedient and unfilial child? I am your biological mother, and you treat me like this. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"

You are the one who was struck by lightning.

Wanli retorted coldly, "I am the Son of Heaven. How can you treat me like this? Do you think no one knows about the things you and Zhang Siwei did behind the scenes? God has eyes, and if he wants to punish you, it will be you!"

you!
Empress Dowager Li was so angry that she cried out, "God, please open your eyes and strike this disobedient and unfilial creature to death."

cut.

Are you going to start crying, making a fuss, and then threatening to hang yourself?

Take your time playing.

Wanli said very simply: "General Shan, guard the palace gates and don't let anyone with ulterior motives in, especially those from the Cining Palace."

After that, he turned and left.

Shan Sinan bowed without hesitation and said, "I will obey your order."

Upon seeing this, Empress Dowager Li sat on the ground and burst into tears.

Unfortunately, it was useless. Dan Sinan was like a person without any feelings. No matter how much she cried, he remained indifferent.

Wanli was nowhere to be seen.
