Chapter 428: Longqing is in the Dynasty
"Yuande, I see that you look good today, but why do you have a sad face, did you encounter something," Zhang Juzheng's voice came from behind Zhang Fan.
Now the hour is still very early, and the officials are waiting outside the palace gate to enter, although Longqing is not in the early dynasty now, but the time of the early dynasty has not changed, it is still like this.
"Teacher," turned around and saw that it was Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Fan saluted, "Something is wrong,"
"What do you say," Zhang Juzheng asked, Zhang Fan would have such a manifestation of his heart exposed, which was really rare, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Yesterday, His Majesty summoned the students again," Zhang Fan said, "I looked, Your Majesty's complexion is getting better and better day by day, especially yesterday, when we met, it looked the same as before, it was completely good, and it was ...... Although His Majesty didn't say anything yesterday, the students felt that His Majesty seemed to be planning to come to the court today."
"Hey, this is a good thing, Your Majesty is naturally good to be able to come to the court, in that case, why do you still look sad," Zhang Juzheng asked with a puzzled face after listening to Zhang Fan's words, and suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and said in surprise, "You...... Don't you think it'......?"
Nodding, it seemed to agree with Zhang Juzheng's guess, Zhang Fan said: "What is Your Majesty's body like now, the students have also mentioned it to the teacher before, it seems that Your Majesty will not be able to escape this catastrophe, and now, the time that the Imperial Physician Wang Youcai said has also come, I am afraid that it will ......."
"What do you mean......" Although Zhang Juzheng already had a plan in his heart, he still spoke intermittently, "...... Back to the light ...... Flashback,"
Without nodding or speaking, Zhang Fan was silent, as if he acquiesced to Zhang Juzheng's words.
"This ......" After Zhang Juzheng got the answer, he didn't know what to say for a while, and suddenly, he asked Zhang Fan with some seriousness, "Why did you only say this now, why didn't you come to my house to tell me yesterday?"
"Teacher, the student is also helpless," Zhang Fan said with a sad face, "Originally, the student also thought that this was a good thing, after coming out of the palace yesterday, he was still quite happy in his heart, but he knew that when he got up this morning, he heard his mother say that there was a family next door to his father, and his mother came out to listen to the scene, it is said that the old man was nearly sixty years old, and his health had been bad before, so he could only lie on the bed and let the people at home wait, but he was suddenly able to get out of bed and walk around two days ago, and died the next day, As soon as my mother said that this was a return to the light, the student remembered that His Majesty's condition was like this."
Zhang Juzheng didn't listen to Zhang Fan's explanation, but kept looking down and thinking about something, and it took a long time before he raised his head and said to Zhang Fan: "Who else did you tell about this matter?"
"The student has just arrived, so I told the teacher alone," Zhang Fan explained.
"It's okay," Zhang Juzheng nodded, "Since I also know about this matter, it is even more impossible for Gao Gong to know,"
"What is the teacher going to do," Zhang Fan hurriedly asked when he saw that Zhang Juzheng seemed to have a plan.
"The plan is there," Zhang Juzheng said, "that is, we will do nothing, and we will do whatever we need when the time comes, and it is better to pretend that we don't know anything,"
When Zhang Fan heard him say this, he thought to himself for a while and asked, "What does the teacher mean ......?"
"Well, that's good," Zhang Juzheng nodded, and said with a serious face, "Let's just brake quietly, but I don't know how long Your Majesty's light can shine back this time,"
"What if something happens today," Zhang Fan asked, "No one can say for sure this kind of thing,"
"It's also possible," Zhang Juzheng thought for a while and said, "But even if something happens today, let's just pretend that we don't know anything,"
"What about Lord Gao," Zhang Fan asked, naturally he would not ask Gao Gong, but Gao Yi, "Do you have to talk to him about this matter now, so that he can be prepared?"
"No, no need," Zhang Juzheng just thought about it and said, "Now that the hour is almost up, I'm afraid it's too late to tell him again, besides, we just want to pretend that we don't know anything, and he really doesn't know, so don't say it, let's explain it to him when the time comes,"
After listening to Zhang Juzheng's words, Zhang Fan still wanted to say something, but there was a drum sound from the upper floor of the palace gate, and the time for the early dynasty had arrived.
Today's early dynasty is still the same as before, the officials are also a little lazy, and since Longqing cultivated in the deep palace and did not come to the court, even those imperial historians have also relaxed, and today is the same, it seems that no one knows about Longqing's going to the court, even Zhang Fan, who has seen Longqing with his own eyes, has not heard anything from his mouth, everything is just his guess.
The hundred officials walked into the Imperial Palace, although they still stood left and right according to the civil and military grades, but they stood a little loosely, these days without the emperor, they were all like this, and no one would come to meddle in things, didn't see Gao Gong, the first and auxiliary minister of the cabinet, was the one who took the lead in rambling, besides, even Zhang Juzheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was the same, and the others naturally became bolder.
The difference, of course, is that the high arch doesn't know what to expect, and does it naturally; And Zhang Juzheng was mentally prepared and deliberately behaved more casually.
These days, Longqing does not come, and the procedures of the last dynasty have been simplified a lot, except for some things to be written as excerpts, if there is something among the hundred officials, that is, they will stand up and speak, of course, if there are many people standing up at the same time, it is naturally the person with a high official position who speaks first.
However, if the two have the same official position, it will be a little difficult to do, and in recent times, there have been many quarrels in this imperial palace, mostly because of this kind of thing.
Today, the officials who entered the main hall didn't want to waste any more time, and as soon as they stood up, someone stood up and was ready to speak.
But at this moment, a high-pitched male duck's voice sounded.
"The emperor has arrived,"
With such a shout from the eunuch, Emperor Longqing walked out wearing an imperial robe and looking like a spring breeze.
However, the officials seemed to be stunned by this scene, starting from the eunuch's voice just now, until Long Qing walked to the dragon chair and sat down, the people below all stood still, looking at Long Qing with a stunned expression.
Seeing the scene below, Long Qingle said: "What's the matter, Aiqing, are you a little surprised to see me?"
Sure enough, it was the emperor's majesty, Longqing's opening, and the hundred officials below who were still standing still immediately came back to their senses, at this time, they didn't care about how loose their standing was, and immediately knelt down together, kowtowing to the mountain and shouting: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live, I wish my emperor a healthy dragon,"
"Excuse me, let's all get up," Longqing's interest today was really good, and regardless of what kind of casual appearance the courtiers below looked like when he came in, he opened his mouth to let them stand up, "I think it's good today, so I'll come to the court, but I'm still a little weak, if there is anything to stand up and speak, I don't need to do any more courtesy, so as not to let me bother to speak,"
"Obey," the officials shouted again, stood up, and hurried back to where they were supposed to stand, in an orderly order.
Zhang Fan couldn't help but feel a little funny when he looked at the movements of these people, but he glanced at Long Qing who was sitting on the dragon chair with his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were lowered again.
The early dynasty has returned to the appearance of two months ago, in fact, it is really the same whether Long Qing came to the court or not, anyway, it is all ministers who have something to do to stand up and say things, and Long Qing usually does not express any opinions most of the time, at most it is "hand it over to so-and-so to do", or "let so-and-so stand up and speak" or something like that.
Taking advantage of this time, Zhang Fan observed the courtiers present, and it seemed that it was normal, for Longqing to come to the court, naturally some people were happy, some people didn't like it, and some people didn't care.
Happy and indifferent people aside, the most representative of the disliked people is the high arch.
In the days when Long Qing was not there, Gao Gong can be described as high-spirited, and the blow to those "different parties" who do not stand on his side is naturally quite powerful, but because of the existence of Zhang Juzheng, during this time, Gao Gong did not succeed too much, but in general, during this time, there are still many people who are unlucky because of Gao Gong, and there are a lot more than before.
Now that Longqing can go to court, Gao Gong is naturally unhappy, he can't be like these two months, saying who is black is black, saying who is white is white, and with Longqing watching from above, he can't casually find a ridiculous reason, just like degrading officials who don't agree with him.
However, Gao Gong's madness is crazy, but he has not reached the point of losing his mind like crazy, there are some things he understands that even if he is unhappy, he can't change it, just like Longqing can come to the court now, for this kind of thing, Gao Gong can only agree with it in addition to helplessness.
Compared with the past two months, today's early dynasty is naturally much more orderly because of the existence of Longqing, with Longqing here, one by one, and no officials dare to openly quarrel and abuse each other, and the progress of the early dynasty is also much smoother, and in terms of time, it is much faster than before.
There wasn't much going on today, and soon, the morning dynasty was over.
With the eunuch's "retreat", Zhang Fan somehow felt a lot more relieved in his heart, he was really afraid that something would happen to Longqing now.
And Zhang Juzheng still didn't seem to be at ease, his eyes kept on Long Qing, even though he had already stood up from the dragon chair.
"It seems that the teacher is worried about Thailand," Zhang Fan couldn't help but think in his heart.
However, just as Zhang Fan was thinking so, a loud roar woke him up.
"Your Majesty,"
