The snow fell and melted. It's three days later. On October 23, the curtain has come down on the big scenes that took place in the Wuying Palace. In the eyes of many people, there may be only some court personnel left, and they have not been announced.

It's over.

However...

In the West Garden, in the forest, in the corner, in the flowers, it is getting colder and colder. In the south of the Taiye Pond, in the water clouds near the lake, the Son of Heaven Yongzhi came back from the palace in the morning, with a petite posture, and the hot Dugu nobleman accompanied the Son of Heaven to talk.

Dugu nobleman is dressed in a close-fitting embroidered cheongsam, with a thin waist and a thin breast, a jade face that is as cold as frost, and a three-dimensional and delicate facial features like a knife. This opposition between ice and fire constitutes her unique charm and style.

Yongzhi Tianzi admires the lake in winter. Dugu Guiren said softly: "Your Majesty, the concubine has some words, I don't know if to say it or not?" ”

Yongzhi Tianzi has some dark circles under his eyes, and he has been in the palace for a few days, and the consumption is not small. Queen Yang is in her prime, she is clear and jade, knowledgeable and interesting, and she can be called a special thing, which is pitiful. Turning his head, he smiled and said, "You..., tell me, what do you want me to do?" ”

Dugu Guiren looked embarrassed, and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, the concubine heard some bad rumors in the palace. Saying: Your Majesty likes women, uses drugs to help fun, faints in Xiyuan several times, and dies soon. ”

The Son of Yongzhi, who was still sitting lazily just now, suddenly swept his eyes, and he was extremely cold, and the Dugu nobleman knelt on the ground in fright. Any man who says that this kind of thing can't be done will be extremely angry, let alone the truth?

The Son of Yongzhi asked coldly, "Where did it come from?" ”

Dugu Guiren knelt on the ground, bowed his head, and said, "The concubine doesn't know. It's just that I heard that the merchant nobles have some dealings with Liu Guozhong. In my heart, I scolded Jia Huan half to death. The power of the Son of Heaven scared her uncomfortably.

Dugu nobleman was born in the Dugu family and is of the same clan as Princess Wu. On the same day, Jia Huan entrusted Princess Wu to give her 10,000 taels of silver and a sentence: "Doesn't the noble person intend to favor Xiyuan alone?" "In the palace, Empress Yang is the only favorite. On the Xiyuan side, she shared the favor of the Son of Heaven with the nobles. For the rest, the beauties offered by Princess Yongchang are not to be feared.

The Son of Yongzhi glanced at the Dugu nobleman: his harem was fighting. However, he believed five or six points in his heart. This sentence is only five words different from what Yu Zicheng said in the court: use medicine to help fun. According to King Wu's interrogation and investigation, Liu Guozhong and Yu Zicheng had some dealings.

The people who knew that he used the medicine, except for the imperial doctor, there were only three people: Yanyan (Empress Yang), Qing'er (Dugu), and Feng'er (Shang noble).

"Go down." The Son of Yongzhi sent Dugu nobles away, called Xu Yan, the chief eunuch who was serving outside the Water Pavilion, and instructed lightly: "You go and check." ”

A day later, in the imperial study, the son of Yongzhi was commenting on the chapter. The study is magnificent, and the royal atmosphere can be seen everywhere.

The common merchant nobles who read the cantata are not here. The Son of Yongzhi was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, sitting alone behind the bookcase, and gave instructions with the imperial pen.

The little eunuchs and palace maids are far away. It seems that he can feel the coldness of the Son of Heaven. The great eunuch Xu Yan sent all the people in the study away, waited for a while, and saw that the Son of Yongzhi put down a piece of music, stepped forward, and said softly: "Your Majesty, I have found out." The evidence points to Chao Sheng, one of Liu Guozhong's sons. ”

Although Chao Sheng strenuously denied it, a certain eunuch in the internal affairs office (from the Xianfu Palace) testified against him. The credibility is high.

Yongzhi Tianzi nodded.

That night, Liu Guozhong, who was detained in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, was executed for "leaking the forbidden words of the palace". Shang nobles, exiled to the cold palace. Half a year later, he died.

On October 23, the drama of Wuying Hall came to an end, and the aftermath lingered. On the eve of the announcement of the government's national policies and personnel arrangements, there were suddenly some waves, which made many people frightened!

For example, in the palace of the king of Nan'an County, because the king of Nan'an County was dismissed from office and took the title, Concubine Nan'an, who often scolded Jia Huan at home, was in the back house of the county king's mansion, Huo Ran closed her voice.

In August this year, Jiafu celebrated Jia's mother's 80th birthday, and she also went to see the three girls in Jiafu, and planned to finish her up and dry her daughter. However, who would have expected that Jia Huan scolded her son on the Wuying Hall and insulted her ancestors. How is she not angry?

Many things, don't look at the process to see the result, Prince Jia died, Jia Huan said in front of the Son of Heaven in the Wuying Palace: Die of the Mandate of Heaven, no blessing to bear. But, what did the merchant do? You can't hide it.

And what did the king of Nan'an do? The book suggested that Jia Guifei be the queen, but did you know that Jia Huan would not be investigated?

Concubine Nan'an, who was sitting in the princess's chair, looked at the ladies who accompanied her in the room, and felt a little chilly in her heart.

….

….

In the palace of Prince Shun, there was first Prince Shun who cut off the Duke of Fuguo, and then Prince Shun was given death by the Son of Heaven as the scapegoat of King Jin. The palace of Prince Shun, located in the southwest corner of the imperial city, gradually declined. The former first prince's palace of the Yongzhi Dynasty was at the juncture of dissipation.

Prince Shun's grandson, Ning Fu, was in the mansion of Princess Yongchang in the outer city, and when he scolded Jia Huan, he learned that Liu Guozhong had been executed, and a sentence stuck in his throat.

This is a side hall of Princess Yongchang's mansion, and the windows are all made of glass, which is bright in winter.

Although it is winter, Princess Yongchang does not have many clothes, a long skirt with a blue satin wrap chest, and her shoulders are matched with fur and shoulders. A beautiful young woman with skin as smooth as milk, fresh and elegant. As she heard that Ning Fu was scolding Jia Huan in a different way, she giggled, and sometimes she was full of spring.

Seeing Ning Fu's performance, Princess Yongchang couldn't help but scold: "Waste! It's not useful. "Seventeen-year-old young man, the firepower is not bad. She had been close to him for the past few days. However, the mind is too bad and too rubbish.

Her relationship with Jia Huan is also not good. Listen to people scolding Jia Huan, be courageous! You must know that after the death of the Queen Mother, she and Prince Shun got closer, and offered beauties to the Son of Heaven to fix their favor. Now, Prince Shun is dead, and the nobles are also gone. Not far from death. How does she feel secure in her heart?

Ning Fu, a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a very good skin, smiled wryly. Don't dare to speak out.

Jia Huan is a ruthless character. Who knows how he works? accelerated Liu Guozhong's death and abolished the Shang nobles. He was afraid of death.

Princess Yongchang patted the bear skin under her body and instructed the servant woman who reported the news, "Go and tell the concubine that I will go back to the house tonight to rest." ”

Yongchang and Jiafu are friends.

….

…

To be precise, the results of the deliberations in the Wuying Hall a few days ago have not yet come out. All sides, it's just speculation. After the end of the day's deliberations, will some of the forces that celebrate and get excited really profit?

"I see it hanging very much!"

On the first day of November, Shu Ji Shi Luohua, who was good friends with Xiao Mengzhen, took wine and food to the prison behind the Metropolitan Procuratorate to visit Xiao Mengzhen, so said. Because Xiao Mengzhen is a clear stream of Hanyuan, in a clear stream yamen like the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the treatment is not bad, and he is alone in a small courtyard.

In the humble room, Luo Hua and Xiao Mengzhen were relatively drinking. A sip of rice wine into the throat, each mood is different.

Xiao Mengzhen is still chubby, his hair is very messy, and he has been locked up for some time. Went to prison earlier than Jia Huan. Xiao Mengzhen smiled lightly, took a sip of wine, and said, "Dehui, you can see it very clearly!" ”

What is the difference between Shang Guiren being beaten into the cold palace and dying? Will other parties benefit? I'm afraid it's not that good.

For example: Can Bai Zhang of the Chu King Party be promoted to a university scholar? For example, can the new Xungui Group (flag bearer Wei Qihou) who watched the play win the position of the governor and the governor?

Luo Hua was in a somewhat complicated mood. According to the current situation, as the son-in-law of the Li family (Li Wen), he wants to get closer to Jiafu. Recently, Jia Zheng's call for promotion has been not small. It is rumored that he may be promoted to the head of the household department. Actually, everyone knows that this official is paid to Jia Huan.

It is necessary to rely on Jia Huan to implement some series of systems such as silver coins. In the Manchu Dynasty, no one objected to this - the political father was promoted from the fourth grade to the sixth department, which is equivalent to being promoted to two levels of official promotion.

In this way, the dispute between the four families of Jinling: Jia and Wang can be put to rest. The prince is still far away. How could the Wang family withstand the authority of the six servants? The Li family, as the in-laws of Jiafu, how to choose Li Shourong, the temple of Dali Temple, still need to ask?

However, he didn't look at Jia Huan very well!

Luo Hua sighed: "Kaizhi, you seem to be quite open." You must know that you have committed the taboo of blocking the way of speech, and there are very few people in the temple who are willing to speak for you. ”

He is ruined. Jia Huan can have so much power to support, but also because he has other identities: the son of a noble family, a teacher, and the banner of the Wendao Academy group. Xiao Kaizhi doesn't have it.

Xiao Mengzhen smiled freely, "It's just a resignation." What's there? Ziyu came to see me and gave me the bottom: try to get a good result for me. But I don't want to bother him too much. I don't regret it!

Dehui, I recommended you to Jia Ziyu. In the future, you will be a good official. Don't forget your original intention. Han Ziheng, it has changed. ”

The last sentence is his deepest experience after coming to the capital.

Luo Hua was stunned for a moment, nodded, and sighed. Han Xiucai pits friends. Xiao Kaizhi is really a kind person!

…

…

At the beginning of November, the first step in the personnel adjustment of the court fell.

Kabu Yingdian Huamo is a scholar of Wenhuadian University. Wei Hong, the head of the household department, was promoted to the scholar of Wu Yingdian University, and Zhao Heling, the left attendant of the household department, was promoted to the head of the household department. Promoted Jia Zheng to the general political envoy (Zheng Sanpin, Jiuqing).
