After Emperor Wanli said this, the Cining Palace suddenly fell silent. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The words of the Empress Dowager Li have never been violated since the first year of Wanli, at least in the Forbidden City.

Several female officials standing on both sides of the Empress Dowager Li immediately lowered their heads, they were good at observing words and feelings, and through the afterglow of their eyes, they saw that the smile on Empress Dowager Li's face froze, and then became indifferent.

Empress Dowager Li glanced at Emperor Wanli who was sitting on the left, Emperor Wanli's face was pale, and he also looked at it, mother and son looked at each other, but Emperor Wanli did not hold on, or lowered his head. Empress Dowager Li looked at Feng Bao and Zhang Cheng again, Zhang Cheng seemed to sigh and lowered his head.

"Mother, you are in charge of the situation of hundreds of officials over there, what do the people in the government and the opposition think of the position of this assistant?"

Feng Bao glanced at Emperor Wanli, who was avoiding his gaze, hesitated slightly, and said: "Back to the Empress Dowager, according to the documents and newspapers sent by Dongchang and Jinyiwei, all the officials thought that Zhang Siwei was virtuous and talented, and he was worthy of the position of auxiliary!" ”

The iron blue color on Emperor Wanli's face did not fade, but he just raised his head and glanced at Feng Bao, Feng Bao naturally did not have the qualifications to look at Emperor Wanli, and bowed his head respectfully.

He said this, indicating that Feng Bao also supported Zhang Siwei to sit in the position of cabinet assistant, the Empress Dowager Li was the elder, Feng Bao was in charge of the inner court, and the two sides were united, and Emperor Wanli could not compete.

Emperor Wanli bowed his head again, Empress Dowager Li stared at Emperor Wanli and did not make a sound, and the hall fell into silence again, but this silence did not make people feel relaxed, but the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Zhang Cheng moved a few steps unnoticed, but walked to the side of Emperor Wanli, raised his finger slightly and poked Wanli's back, Emperor Wanli shook, slowly raised his head, and said in an astringent voice: "Queen Mother, since this is the case, the emperor has no objections, just wait for the court to push and see who the ministers are." ”

Empress Dowager Li nodded slightly, and the smile disappeared from her face.

The tone is set here, and the results of the court push are almost out, although it is said that everyone is a spine, but if it is a candidate who does not match the meaning of the queen mother, everyone must also consider whether they can withstand the anger and resentment in the palace.

The atmosphere here is like this, and there is no mother-son affection, family greetings" After Emperor Wanli answered, he just bowed his head and said nothing, the room was quiet again, Feng Bao and Zhang Cheng glanced at each other, and then looked at the female official beside the Empress Dowager Li, if it was always so embarrassingly quiet, it would be necessary for the people below to say something irrelevant to interrupt the quiet.

The eyes exchanged, and the female official Jinxiu hesitated, "Just about to speak, Emperor Wanli raised his head and said loudly: "The queen mother, the head of the six branches of the celebrant and the head of the sixth branch of the priest, Zou Yi, was promoted to the position of the superintendent of the imperial horse, this position is vacant, Zhao Jinliang has been by the side of the son for a long time, he is respectful and studious, and he is loyal, which is exactly suitable."

Empress Dowager Li narrowed her eyes and asked, "How old is Zhao Jinliang this year?" ”

"If you go back to your mother, you will be thirteen years old this year......

The celebrant is the twelve eunuchs, the four divisions, and the eight bureaus, and leads the various yamen of the inner court, among which the secretary of the ceremonial supervisor clerical room is in charge of the internal and external context of the book transmission, and the ceremonial room is in charge of the rewards and punishments of the inner court.

Emperor Wanli asked a thirteen-year-old child to take care of this errand, which sounds ridiculous, but Zhao Jinliang knows how to read, and it is really hard to say how many books he has read.

This proposal seemed ridiculous, but Empress Dowager Li lowered her head and pondered, and without thinking about it for too long, she raised her head and said: "Zhao Jinliang, this kid mourning family, also knows that he has a tough heart and knows the general situation, and it is okay to be in this position. ”

Empress Dowager Li glanced at Feng Bao on the side and just bowed and said silently, Empress Dowager Li nodded, and said with a smile: "In this case, the emperor's decree is, Zhang Cheng, Xiaoliang is not very old, and there are not many things that have passed, you still have to do a lot of tricks!" ”

Zhang Cheng hurriedly responded, after saying this, he was speechless, Emperor Wanli got up to say goodbye, Zhang Cheng also followed, but Feng Bao did not move.

"The emperor has grown up...... lost a position, but he knew that he would arrange a position for his cronies and let Zhao Jinliang be the head of Liushenglang, it was really a shame that he thought of it. ”

Empress Dowager Li didn't have a smile on her face, and said indifferently, but Feng Bao looked at the direction of Emperor Wanli's departure with some concern, and the female official Jinxiu saw the atmosphere, and glanced at the surrounding female officials, and then bowed down and said: "Niangniang, the slaves and maids go to see the layout in front of them, and see if the burned place has been repaired." ”

Waiting for the palace maids to retreat, Feng Bao hesitated and said: "Niangniang, Long Live Lord has resentment in his heart, now Long Live Lord is getting older, although Niang Niang is a Daming Sheji, but in the long run, it will come to ......."

"The mourning family is for the sake of the Daming Society, and for the stability of the country left by the ancestors, even if the emperor resents the mourning family, the mourning family can't take care of it."

Empress Dowager Li said categorically, Feng Bao sighed, and he was also silent.

Emperor Wanli out of Ciyu Palace's footsteps are fast, he was originally a little broken, walking like this, one foot high and one foot low is even more obvious, but if he walks too fast, Zhang Cheng has to trot to keep up.

On the soft sedan outside, Emperor Wanli just said coldly, "In the imperial study, the people below don't dare to slack off, and hurriedly go over there."

The current imperial study is different from the past, the security is a little stricter than usual, and the guards here are all arranged by Xue Zhanye, Napu and Hu Qi, and they are all assured people.

When Emperor Wanli entered the house, Zhang Cheng drove out all the eunuchs who were on standby in the courtyard, and ordered people to stay away, of course, Zhao Jinliang was still waiting in the house.

"Zhang Banban, draft a decree, the widow will issue an edict to appoint Shen Shixing as a cabinet assistant, regardless of how he pushes the court!!"

Entering the house, Emperor Wanli didn't sit down, he said angrily, he had already agreed in Cining Palace, and only then did he speak like this when he walked into the room, Zhang Cheng also understood that this was not just a temper, and he smiled bitterly in his heart, and said in a solemn voice: "Long live Lord, Zhang Siwei's side was arranged early, now I look at it, it has begun in May, the Queen Mother's side, Feng Bao's side, have been done, the news from the Department of Public Security when the dynasty is dispersed today, the Beijing Division has written articles to praise, Praise this four-dimensional is a natural candidate for auxiliary, long live the lord, the situation is already like this, and it will be a little late to act again, even if the long live lord appoints Shen Shixing, but without going through the court, hundreds of officials and scholars are endlessly attacking Xu, how can Shen Shixing do it in this position for a long time. ”

Emperor Wanli leaned heavily on the back of his chair and said in a hateful voice: "The widow sometimes really doesn't know if he is the Son of Heaven, I thought that Zhang Ge was old, after this mess, the queen mother felt guilty, but I didn't expect it to be like this, this Son of Heaven is really boring, the widow might as well go to Tianjin Wei, there, there are always loyal ministers like Wang Tong." ”

Zhang Cheng sighed and said solemnly: "Long live Lord, you still have to be cautious in saying these words in the future, in Cining Palace today, the Queen Mother is already a little unhappy......

Speaking of this, Emperor Wanli stopped, came out of his mind, and also sighed and said: "The widow is unwilling, the queen mother and the eldest companion press over, the widow is a disadvantage, and the outer dynasty adds an auxiliary Zhang Siwei, the widow still has room to speak and do things, think about this Siwei should be like Zhang Juzheng that day, above the widow, how can this stand it, it is really unwilling!" ”

Hearing Emperor Wanli's words, Zhang Cheng smiled, shook his head and said: "Long live Lord This is biased, please think about it, how is the situation the same as it was back then?" Zhang Juzheng was the teacher of the Long Live Lord when he was in the Yuwang Mansion, Long Qing entered the cabinet, and after the Long Live Lord ascended the throne, he was supplemented, and has been in the palace to speak, in addition to the history, and Long Live also have teachers and students, this is the prestige of the grand, arbitrary judgment, Zhang Siwei has what, all of them have the position of the eunuch of the imperial horse supervisor, Zhao Jinliang got the position of the eunuch of the imperial horse supervisor, Zhao Jinliang got the six Lang in charge, the inner court Yamen Long Live Lord gradually extended, as for the outer court, Zhang Siwei did the auxiliary, he and Shen Shixing have similar qualifications and merits, how can he be as coercive as Zhang Juzheng back then, and wait for the Long Live Lord to transfer Wang Tong into Beijing, then with one more strong arm, why worry about Zhang Siwei? ”

Seeing that Emperor Wanli's face was soothing, Zhang Cheng said with a smile: "Although Shen Shixing is indifferent and self-controlled, there are also disciples in the court, with deep qualifications, and his prestige and merits are not low.

After saying that, Emperor Wanli's face had softened a lot, and he groaned, but said in a muffled voice: "If this is the case, Wang Tong is afraid that there will be trouble as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, there must be a candidate on the queen mother's side, and Zhang Siwei's side will definitely not be inclined to Wang Tong." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Cheng was also speechless, and sighed at the end.

"Chen Dahe, the four of them will stay on your side to recuperate, and the bumps on the road are not good for the wound!"

Wang Tong rode on the horse and said to Lu Wancai and Li Wenyuan, who came to see them off, Xing Wancai smiled and hugged his fists and said: "It's all my own family, Brother Wang can rest assured, as soon as the luggage is arranged, it will be arranged to send it back, and it is also convenient to return to Tianjin with light equipment." ”

Wang Tong nodded with a smile and said, "Although the Jingshi is peaceful, we must also beware of the remnants of the rebellion, and a few of them will have to work hard!" ”

Lu Wancai and Li Wenyuan bowed together, and Li Gui, Wang Si, Tian Ronghao and other online watermarks behind him also bowed, Wang Tong hugged his fists and nodded on the horse, instigated the horses, and walked out, Li Hutou and a thousand people followed, and out of the street, a man who was squatting on the side of the street and basking in the sun stood up.

In the teahouse diagonally opposite the street, two people threw a string of copper coins on the table to settle the bill, and hurriedly walked out of the tea ......
