readx;

The sun rose very high, and the Kyoshi was still in a state of strict vigilance. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Last night was chaotic, and even if most of the people in Jingshi didn't see it, they heard the shouts and killings outside, and even in their own houses, they could see the fires everywhere.

Originally, before dawn, the lords of the court should go to wait outside the noon gate, but in the early morning of last night, there were messengers shouting through the door, telling each family to close their doors and take care of their own homes, and not to go out without notice.

After breakfast, there were eunuchs in the palace, cabinet scholars, scholars of the six ministries, and the imperial history and deputy imperial history of the Imperial Palace...... Wait, all the members who are qualified to participate in the court meeting are sent to the palace, these civil officials also saw a noble military general on horseback halfway to the road, and the scheming calculations, almost all the leaders of the civil and military affairs of the Beijing division have arrived.

The Forbidden City, which used to be rich and majestic, is now more like a fortress, with the perimeter guarded by soldiers of the forbidden army, and the soldiers armed with knives and guns are on guard behind the fortifications.

On the inside is the guards, the guards are not many, they are wearing brocade robes on weekdays, and the nature of the guard of honor is stronger.

The officials who entered the palace were all worried, there was a big mess last night, could it be that something happened to the emperor, and today I want everyone to come over and set someone else's .........

After arriving at the Qianqing Palace and seeing Wanli with a gloomy face on the dragon chair, he was relieved that the emperor was fine, there would not be any big changes, and he would still travel on a normal track.

The Qianqing Palace summons the ministers, often in the court meeting, when the hundred officials knock to meet, three times a month, the emperor is usually in Fengtianmen to meet the ministers to pay respects, in the Wenyuan Pavilion and the cabinet to discuss, today to do this is already a broken rule, but the matter is very extraordinary, no one can take care of it.

"Last night, there were thieves in the palace, there were thieves in Jingshi, there was nothing to do, there was nothing to do, there was nothing to do in the palace!"

Before the eunuchs could salute, Emperor Wanli, who was sitting on the throne, spoke coldly, and after saying this, the ministers were relieved in their hearts, and they all bowed down and praised the saints.

"Last night's rebellion, Zhang Siwei and Zhang Aiqing took advantage of the night to go to Beijing to spread the decree and transfer troops into Beijing, this is a great achievement, Shen Aiqing said that the families of the Beijing teachers and nobles sent their families to quell the chaos in the city, and they have the courage and knowledge, which is a great achievement."

"The minister is afraid, but fortunately the monarch's father is fine, and he doesn't dare to claim credit!"

Zhang Siwei and Shen Shixing were both out of the queue and kneeling on the ground, and the ministers who had been staring at Emperor Wanli noticed that Zhang Siwei and Shen Shixing were quite haggard on their faces, although they were wearing court clothes, they were both dusty.

Some people lowered their heads, some people exchanged glances with each other, I thought that these two people were the disciples of the cabinet assistant Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Juzheng died of illness, and the two of them lost power, but I didn't expect that there would be such a feat, it seems that no one can shake the status of the two of them, don't think about the position of this auxiliary and the second assistant.

Emperor Wanli nodded with a cold face, and said again:

"Merit is meritorious, the widow should be rewarded, you two get up!"

The two people below got up, the two of them have been in the court for many years, and the etiquette of advance and retreat will naturally not be wrong, but after getting up, Zhang Siwei still couldn't help but glance at Shen Shixing, but Shen Shixing bowed his head and was silent.

"Mr. Zhang's immortal is gone, the widow's grief is still unresolved, but there is such a big change in the palace, but there is such a big change in the Jingshi, Huang Sen, how did you do Shuntian Mansion Yin?"

Shuntianfu Yin is a third grade, called "Xiao Jiuqing", at this time he is naturally also below, Jingshi has such a big mess, Shuntianfu Yin is already responsible, Huang Sen stood in the queue and his face was already pale, hearing this, his body shook, but he could still staggered out of the queue and knelt on the ground, knocking guilty:

"Last night's rebellion, the minister was guilty of negligence, please punish Your Majesty!"

Looking at Yin Huangsen of Shuntian Mansion who was kneeling on the ground, Emperor Wanli snorted coldly, ignored it anymore, and said indifferently:

"Jinyiwei is the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven, spying on the Quartet, last night was such a big mess, Jinyiwei has so many thousands of households, so many soldiers, what are they doing, last night was peaceful, the street was the messenger of Shuntianfu and the two hundred households of South Street, it was Xiangchengbo Chen's family and the family of the Tang family, Liu Shouyou!!"

When the name was finally mentioned, Emperor Wanli raised his voice suddenly, Jinyi Wei commanded the envoy to be a military minister at the court meeting, Liu Shouyou's face was also dead, and when he heard Emperor Wanli's question, he didn't even have the strength to go out of the ranks, and knelt directly on the ground, or collapsed there. Silky silk! Dan Cup! some

A military minister, he didn't even have this responsibility, Emperor Wanli had a little more disdain in his eyes, and even the others in the court were despised.

But Liu Shou has this result, and everyone also thinks that it should be, when Zhang Juzheng was in the past, the intelligence of the Jinyi Guard's reconnaissance was first to Zhang Juzheng's side before arriving in the palace, Zhang Juzheng controlled the Jinyi Guard, and knew that the wind and grass were blowing, and the hundred officials ** were naturally overwhelming in the court.

Such a person is unlucky, everyone is happy to see it, and there are not a few people who gloat, Emperor Wanli glanced at it with disgust, and said coldly:

"Dereliction of duty and incompetence, with you by your side, the widow can put his mind at ease, I'm afraid it's too late to worry, I think you are a son of a minister, go to the official position, go home and think about it behind closed doors!!"

The change of such a critical position is to be drafted by the cabinet and approved by the celebrant supervisor, but who is the accountant now, Zhang Siwei took a step forward and bowed to the order, and said solemnly:

"Command!!"

With the countersignature of the cabinet, Liu Shouyou's fate was decided, and Liu Shouyou's whole person seemed to be boneless, and he lay directly on the ground.

Liang Menglong, who was also a member of the cabinet university, glanced at Shen Shixing, then at Zhang Siwei, and then lowered his head, almost everyone in the palace did this.

Zhang Siwei is just a cabinet scholar, and the name of the second assistant has not been decided, and he is taking the lead everywhere today, has the position of this assistant been set for him? Everyone was puzzled, but no one was stupid enough to ask questions.

Emperor Wanli just glanced at the throne, and there was no doubt, he glanced around, and said again:

"Cao Yi, the avant-garde commander of the government army, was meritorious last night, this is due to Jiangshan Sheji, to the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty, Feng Yi Yongbo, the cabinet will discuss it, and submit the vote as soon as possible!!"

Everyone in the cabinet in the palace is the leader, but everyone is different, and all the orders are judged and judged, and no one else is allowed to speak, but this Cao Yi's reward is for everyone to discuss, since it is said in the court, it must have been passed by the Queen Mother and Feng Bao, but this hot and cold is worth considering.

"Zhao Yuande of the Criminal Department! Dali Temple Wu Sui! ”

Hearing the cold greeting of the Emperor of Wanli County, the two people in the courtier's train trembled, and hurriedly knelt down, Zhao Yuande is the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and Wu Sui is Zuoqing of Dali Temple, both of whom are high-ranking officials in charge of the punishment and prison ruling, and the Wanli Emperor glanced at them and said directly:

"Inside and outside the capital, many scoundrels took advantage of the chaos last night to do evil, looting and burning, the thieves didn't do much, they did a lot, don't let one go, don't kill one less!!"

The words are murderous, if you put it in the past, there will definitely be ministers who come out to advise, saying that you should put benevolence and righteousness first, and do not kill indiscriminately.

Emperor Wanli said so much in a hurry, his throat was dry, he reached to the side, the little eunuch hurriedly held the teacup, the Wanli Emperor took a sip, frowned, and slammed the teacup in front of the throne, the teacup was shattered, and the little eunuch who served the tea was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, not knowing what he was wrong, the tea temperature should be just right when he sent it, why did the long-lived master drop the teacup.

Now at this time, touching the anger of the Son of Heaven, that is a dead end, tea and broken porcelain burst into the front ministers, and everyone bowed their heads and did not see it.

"Retreat!!"

Emperor Wanli didn't do it, just stood up and turned his head and walked towards the palace, the eunuchs who sang the salute were stunned, and when the emperor walked out, he shouted "retreat from the court", the ministers in the court looked at each other, they were all silent, and no one exchanged opinions, they all dispersed silently.

In addition to the court, he didn't sleep all night, and the Wanli Emperor, who was afraid all night, was stabbed in the eyes by the sun, he stretched out his hand to cover it, last night's chaos was mainly concentrated in Zheng Guifei's palace, and the Qianqing Palace was peaceful, although it looked the same as usual from the outside, but the pungent smell of gunsmoke and blood mixed together did not drift away, reminding Emperor Wanli that he walked around between life and death last night.

He didn't stop, and the eunuchs behind him also stopped, Zhang Cheng was in charge of the palace, and Zhao Jinliang stayed there to take care of the courtyard, the only eunuchs who have been close to Emperor Wanli over the years are the two of them.

It wasn't until Emperor Wanli waved his hand that someone hurriedly arranged a soft sedan chair, and someone stepped forward and asked:

"Long live the Lord, do you want to go to the imperial study?"

"Back to Concubine Zheng's spider ......"

…………“

“…… Lin Shulu died in King Lu's bedroom, and Lin Shulu's closest companion was wearing armor and holding a spear, and died before the place where the Lord lived last night...... According to the live mouth caught last night, Lin Shulu is the Sanyang Sect, and his cronies inside and outside call him the master......"

In Cining Palace, Feng Bao bowed down and talked about the situation last night, speaking of this, he couldn't help but knock his fingers on his eyebrows, there are only four people in this room, Empress Dowager Li, Feng Bao, Zhang Cheng, and Zhang Whale, everyone's face is not good, Empress Dowager Li is even more pale, Feng Bao looked at a few people in the room again, coughed dryly, and continued to speak:

"Some people say that as long as you will live the ......... King Lu ascended the throne, and everyone has a drop of wealth and ......"

Empress Dowager Li snorted coldly, Feng Bao immediately bowed his head and said nothing, according to the past, the Empress Dowager Cisheng must be thunderous, but after waiting, she only heard a long sigh.
