When thinking of Master Long Qing, Shen Lie couldn't help but murmur in his heart that he was probably the most useless emperor in the Ming Dynasty.
Of course.
I never dared to say these words, I could only hold them in my heart.
Then another period of silence passed.
Zhu Yijun nodded, seeming to think that what Shen Lie said was very reasonable, so he had no choice but to suppress his thoughts of reviving the prison.
Look at Shen Lie.
Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "The Jin Party's knife is on your neck, and you still speak for them?"
Shen Lie was speechless.
Then he touched his nose.
Although I was speechless for a moment, my heart was open and clear.
The monarch and his ministers looked at each other for a moment, and then they were both discouraged.
"Don't mention it anymore."
Building a prison and uprooting the Jin Party are just angry words. The imperial party is not strong enough now and is still very young. It still needs to build up its strength a little bit.
So I put this troublesome matter aside.
Zhu Yijun looked up at the stars in the sky again. It seemed that the stars had infinite magic power, attracting his attention.
I don’t know how long it took.
Zhu Yijun said quietly: "Speaking of which, I was the third son of my father. The Queen Mother was not the main palace at that time... she was just an unfavored concubine. I was neither a direct descendant nor the eldest son, so I had no chance to be this emperor."
Lord Long Live's faint words sounded like he was murmuring in his sleep, but Shen Lie wisely did not disturb him and listened quietly from the side.
That sleepy whisper lingers in my ears
"But if a person is favored by fate, he cannot push it away."
"I think back then, Empress Chen had no children, and my two brothers died in infancy. According to the order of succession, I became the eldest son, and was established as the crown prince when I was five years old."
This night is like water.
Whispers in the middle of the night.
But Shen Lie just listened silently.
soon.
Zhu Yijun whispered again: "I was smart and well-behaved when I was young. One day, the emperor's father had nothing to do, so he rode a horse in the palace."
Smiled.
Zhu Yijun came over again and said proudly: "I saw this scene and stepped forward to advise you. Your Majesty is the lord of the world. He is riding a horse and galloping alone. If he falls, what will happen to the country and the country? That year... I was only six years old. age."
Shen Lie was speechless.
The scene at that time naturally appeared in my mind, so a six-year-old kid knew how to consider issues based on the country, the country, and the country.
And if no one teaches you, you just open your mouth.
Shen Lie hurriedly said: "The late emperor must be very happy, right?"
really.
Zhu Yijun smiled again and said: "Of course, my filial words made my father very happy, so he got off his horse and got close to me."
Speaking of which.
He suddenly smiled mysteriously and said softly: "Actually, these words are all taught by the Grand Master on a daily basis."
Shen Lie was speechless again.
Not surprisingly.
Okay!
Zhang Juzheng, his old father-in-law who was in love with him, took a fancy to the emperor when he was six years old. At that time, the emperor's two brothers were not dead yet.
According to the ancestral etiquette of the Ming Dynasty, with two elder brothers pressing down on his head, it was absolutely impossible for this man to become emperor at that time.
But why did Zhang Juzheng choose the third son of the emperor?
Is this luck or vision?
Shen Lie was a little confused for a moment, so he involuntarily raised his head and looked at the stars on the sky, and he began to understand.
Why does the emperor like to sit on the steps and watch the stars? The sky full of stars and the brilliant Milky Way seem to contain some mysterious secret.
perhaps.
This is really life.
If not life, what is it? Why is it that the emperor is so immortal that his two brothers died of illness one after another, leaving the throne in his hands like a pie?
at this time.
Zhu Yijun withdrew his gaze and said quietly: "If you dare to burn down my Chang Ping Cang, no matter who does it... I want him to die!"
Shen Lie quickly stood up, bowed respectfully, and said softly: "I obey your order."
clear!
What the emperor means is that the important task of cleaning up the Jin party should be left to me, Shen.
There is nothing left to say at this point.
Shen Lie put on his official boots, stood up, put on his official uniform again, patted the dust on his trouser legs, and said loudly: "I excuse myself."
Zhu Yijun nodded.
"Go down."
The monarch and his ministers met with each other.
Shen Lie endured the pain in the soles of his feet and left with somewhat staggering steps, and the palace once again became as quiet as water.
At this moment, even the maids serving in the courtyard knew that the emperor had instructed the factory guards to start a war against the Jin party.
A storm arises.
At midnight.
At Zhang Siwei's house.
In agitation.
Looking at the officials from his hometown who looked panic-stricken, as if they were in imminent disaster, Zhang Siwei turned his face and cursed angrily.
With a low roar, the handsome and elegant Zhang Gelao scolded Shen Lie and Shen Shixing in front of his servants, maids, and fellow villagers.
More than ten years of forbearance have failed.
I can't blame Zhang Siwei for being furious.
There’s only one step left!
As long as Zhang Juzheng, who was suffering from illness, died, the code on his head could be removed, and his position as the first official of the Ming Dynasty and the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty would be secure.
even.
He had long thought that as long as Zhang Juzheng died, he would immediately instruct his disciples to uproot Zhang Juzheng's party and confiscate Zhang's family and exterminate his family!
Then replace them all with his people, and then abolish the New Deal.
Between the world.
Scholars from all over the country who were dissatisfied with Zhang Juzheng's new policies would surely be grateful to him. If the power came to be in his hands at that time, wouldn't it mean that the power was in power?
But now.
In an instant, the situation was turned upside down.
In a rage, after scolding Shen Lie and Shen Shixing, Mr. Zhang Ge vented his anger on Jia Mian and a group of fellow grain merchants.
"Bastard thing!"
Step forward quickly.
Zhang Siwei kicked each of the Puzhou fellows hard and cursed: "A bunch of idiots, greedy for money and don't care about the opportunity. In the current disaster, they are driving up food prices... They are all poor and crazy. What!"
If you endure a little longer, you will get the position of chief minister, and then you can be as greedy as you want.
Why should we cause trouble at this time?
"Dare to move Chang Pingcang!"
Are you seeking death?
He was kicked by Mr. Zhang Ge.
A stagger.
Several screams of pain.
There were five to six Puzhou officials and grain merchants whose faces were red and could not hold their heads up after being scolded.
Finally, after Zhang Gelao had finished venting, he waved his long sleeves and shouted in a low voice: "Get out!"
A group of grain merchants who had caused trouble were silent, lowered their heads, and walked out of the magnificent living room of the Prime Minister's Mansion in a dejected line.
In deathly silence.
The accountant bravely stepped forward and said softly: "Master Xiang."
Looking at Jia Mian's back that had not yet left, Mr. Accountant rolled his eyes, and his gaze became sinister: "Now that things have come to this, why not..."
The strong man cut off his wrists and silenced the murderer.
Zhang Siwei's eyes darkened again.
But he was noncommittal.
But that sinister look had already explained everything.
He just waved the sleeves of his gorgeous brocade official uniform and left unhappy. Then the accountant also slapped his folding fan.
Left in a hurry.
Under the night in the capital, murderous secrets suddenly became widespread.
Taishi Mansion.
Before the sickbed.
Amidst the fragrance of the herbal medicine, Zhang Juzheng, who looked sick, closed his eyes slightly, listening to the fourth son talking excitedly about what Shen Lie would do at the meeting today.
"Amazing!"
Zhang Jianxiu was full of praise: "Although Shen Lie is just starting out, he is still young and mature. He knows the situation of the court well. He is indeed a talent that can be made."
Brother Zhang was naturally very proud.
After all, it was back then.
He strongly approved of the marriage between his younger sister and Shen Lie.
