After greeting the Son of Heaven according to the rules, getting up and subconsciously looking over, Yang Zhen was really frightened. Because the gloomy anger and impatience on Wanli's face in front of him was something he hadn't seen much before, he understood why the eunuchs who were accompanying him when he came just now were so trembling, and the current emperor was completely an active volcano that could erupt at any time.

Yang Zhen, who saw this, didn't dare to be careless, and quickly looked at his nose and nose, and said in a calm voice: "I don't know what Your Majesty has to do when he is in a hurry to summon his ministers?" ”

"Yang Zhen, as the Governor of the Jinyi Guard, do you even want me to tell you what happened in the capital in the past two days?" Wanli frowned very unhappily and asked.

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was choking on himself like eating gunpowder, Yang Zhen could only smile bitterly in his heart, obviously this person was forced to lose proportion by the situation in front of him, and he was on the verge of collapse or explosion, so it was better for him to provoke less. At the same time, he made up his mind that it would be better to keep the truth of the matter hidden.

After a pause, Yang Zhen asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, are you uneasy because of the article "Discussion on Anxiety" that has been circulating recently? ”

"Hmph, this matter has disturbed the imperial court, and there is even a sinister intention to instigate discord among my sons, it is really a crime that deserves death!" Wanli immediately blurted out: "Yang Zhen, I want you Jinyiwei to immediately find out who is behind this matter, no matter who it is, you must not indulge in it!" ”

"Obey the order!" Yang Zhen hurriedly agreed, and then looked up at the Son of Heaven: "Your Majesty, the minister still has a few words to say." As he spoke, his eyes wandered around the eunuchs.

The Son of Heaven understood, nodded slightly, and waved his hand again, signaling everyone to withdraw from the hall for the time being. This action made these eunuchs feel a little relieved, they have been staying in front of the emperor with a calm face for the past few days, and they may reprimand and punish themselves at any time for a trivial matter, and their pressure is too great. It's good for them to be able to take a breath away a little now.

When there were only two of his monarchs and ministers left in the hall, Wanli frowned and said, "You say, what else is important?" ”

Looking at his impatient appearance, Yang Zhen smiled bitterly again. But soon, he entered the state again: "Your Majesty, the minister understands why you are angry, and the person who spreads such a rumor should indeed be killed, but ...... The minister dares to ask His Majesty if he has a word, and hopes that His Majesty will not be strange, and can answer the minister truthfully. ”

"You ask, I won't hide it from you."

"Your Majesty thinks, is it more important to find out the person who is misleading the people, or is it more important to take this opportunity to win the crown prince for the third prince?" Yang Zhen said, staring at the Son of Heaven above with some rudeness.

Wanli obviously didn't expect him to ask this question, he was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes turned back: "What do you mean by this?" ”

"The minister saw something else in this demon book." Yang Zhen said, took a step forward, lowered his voice and said his idea carefully.

Wanli was silent for a while, and then a strange light flashed in his eyes: "Is this really feasible?" ”

"There are always seven or eight points of certainty, but this requires your Majesty's cooperation. As long as the pressure is high enough, things are likely to go as His Majesty wishes! ”

"If it is true to what you say, it is worth a try! But the person who deceived the people ...... "Wanli is obviously still haunted by this."

"As long as His Majesty thinks that the culprit has been caught, he will naturally be caught." Yang Zhen gave a very mysterious answer. But Wanli immediately understood the meaning, and the anger on his face unconsciously weakened a lot, and after a deep groan, he said: "Then do as you say, I will cooperate with you in the palace." ”

"Obey the order!" Yang Zhen hurriedly agreed, and a stone in his heart could be regarded as falling to the ground. If Wanli really wants to hold on to this matter and find out the truth, he really doesn't know what to do.

However, he didn't notice that looking at his departing back, Wanli's eyes also flashed with a strange look. Fortunately, soon, he put this point down, and his expression was much more relaxed than just now, if this bad thing could finally be transformed into a good thing, so as to achieve his long-standing wish, he didn't mind what Yang Zhen did in this matter, at least not now......

And the eunuchs around the Son of Heaven were full of gratitude and reverence for Yang Zhen, because he came to the palace and said something to the Son of Heaven, His Majesty's mood was much better than before, and he and the others no longer had to worry about being severely punished for doing something wrong.

These eunuchs were better, but the courtiers' suffering came.

In the afternoon of this day, a large number of brocade guards suddenly moved, broke into several important yamen, and took away some of the officials from the lock, some of their colleagues wanted to stop them, and wanted to ask the reason, but these fierce and vicious guys didn't bother to take care of it at all, only flashed their waist cards, and then shook the steel knife in their hands, and pushed away the people who wanted to theorize, and left with the goal.

For a while, the major yamen in the capital were all panicked, for fear that Jinyiwei would arrest himself next. At the same time, everyone suddenly discovered that the terrible institution of Jinyiwei was still so arrogant and domineering.

In fact, since Yang Zhen became the commander of the Jinyi Guard, he has always been low-key, and rarely has any conflicts with officials in the DPRK and China, let alone taking people casually.

After a few years, the people in the court began to gradually forget what Jinyiwei had done in the past, and began to pay some attention to this special yamen. is Yang Zhen, the big leader of the Jinyi Guard, in the eyes of ordinary people, he is just a favored minister who is deeply favored by the Son of Heaven, and there is really nothing to be afraid of.

But this time, the Jinyi Guard suddenly grabbed people like a storm, but it reminded the ministers of the court and the central government that used to be majestic and rode on everyone's heads as a prestige, but no one dared to provoke the Jinyi Guard!

And what's even more terrifying is that because of the relationship between Yang Zhen and the Son of Heaven, the current Jinyi Guards are more powerful than any of the previous Jinyi Guards, so they can't even come up with a way to resist. In addition, soon, they also thought of the basis for Jinyiwei to take people from the identity of the person who was taken - these officials who were suddenly arrested were all officials who asked the Son of Heaven to make a prince in the past two days!

Is this the counterattack made by the Son of Heaven after facing the pressure of the ministers? Thinking of this, everyone was shocked and a little angry. Aren't we doing this for the sake of the Ming Dynasty? Establishing a long and established heir is the fundamental avenue, how can the Son of Heaven be allowed to act arbitrarily because of his own selfishness?

The ministers, who were encouraged by the righteous path in their hearts, even spontaneously organized themselves and went straight to the palace to petition, hoping that His Majesty would release the people quickly.

In this regard, the Son of Heaven's reaction was that my body was quite unwell, and I didn't see any foreign ministers! - yes, he came to avoid it, and let these courtiers eat a closed door.

At this moment, the ministers were immediately dumbfounded, as if they had raised a jack of giant hammers and swung forward, but they hit the cotton at once, and there was no feedback at all. It is impossible for them to go straight to the palace gate in order to save people, they must see the Son of Heaven, let alone save people, even they themselves have to get in.

But they didn't have the courage to run to the Jinyi Guard to ask for someone. Even before, they tried not to have any contact with Jinyiwei, let alone now. Now that I'm gone, I'm afraid I'll be one of the people who will be taken down.

The roads were blocked, which made the ministers realize for the first time that they were so useless, although they had words and pens, but when no one listened to them and watched their recitals, they were nothing.

In the end, when everyone was desperate and desperate, everyone focused on Shen Shixing, the first assistant of the cabinet. Now it seems that the only one who can untie this dead knot is he Shen Ge is old.

To be honest, as an old fritter in officialdom, an old bureaucrat who is more slippery than an oiled loach, Shen Shixing really doesn't want to get involved in any prince dispute. Because he is already very young, the Son of Heaven is only in his twenties, how can he be succeeded by the next Son of Heaven? For him, now that he is a very good minister, what he should do is to do his duty well, and then wait for retirement.

Of course, he will not be stupid enough to stand on the opposite side of the ministers at this juncture, so even if he is the first auxiliary minister, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it. So the best choice is to be neutral and help the two parts.

It is precisely because of this idea that Shen Shixing has always been very silent in the recent trend, whether it is the temptation of the Son of Heaven to set up Zhu Changxun, the backlash of the ministers and the subsequent request to set up Zhu Changluo, or even the recent "Discussion of Distress", he just watched coldly and did not express anything.

But now, he, who was watching the play, was squeezed onto the stage by everyone, and he was actually asked to sing the protagonist. This made Shen Ge Elder only sigh, but he had no way to refuse.

Because of his identity here, in the Ming Dynasty, where there is no prime minister today, he, the head of the cabinet, is the head of the ministers. Since he is a minister, he should naturally be on the same side as them.

Looking at these familiar faces in front of him, Shen Shixing smiled bitterly again and again. Since there is nothing to refuse, he can only agree to their request, but at the same time, he also has his own request: "This matter is indeed a bit too much...... In this regard, the old man can intercede on your behalf. However, the old man can only go to ask to see the Son of Heaven, and as for Jinyiwei, the old man is afraid that there is nothing he can do. ”

The ministers were stunned for a moment, but then they nodded in agreement, which was better than if they had nothing to do. At least the first assistant of the cabinet wants to see the emperor, and the Son of Heaven can't continue to avoid it, right?

So, under the eager gaze of everyone, Shen Ge Lao rushed to the palace to ask to see the Son of Heaven......
