Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace.

"Send someone to send this recital to King Chung." The orthodox emperor closed a piece of music in his hand and handed it to Song Dashan, who was standing aside.

"The minions obey." Song Dashan bowed down when he heard this, took the recital and left quickly, looking for someone to send the recital to Li Yuntian.

"This Xue Xuan is really interesting, I have to get along with Jinyiwei and the Metropolitan Procuratorate." The Orthodox Emperor pondered for a while, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but reveal a hint of a smile, and he muttered to himself.

It turned out that this letter was written by Xue Xuan, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, for impeaching Jinyiwei for disrupting justice and bending the law for personal gain in the He case.

Since Li Yuntian is the imperial history of the left capital of the Imperial Palace, the orthodox emperor naturally wants to let Li Yuntian know about this matter, after all, this impeachment letter is from the hands of the officials of the Ming Dynasty, and its weight is self-evident.

To tell the truth, Xue Xuan's impeachment of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is exactly what the orthodox emperor wants to see, what he is most worried about is the harmony of the civil and military ministers, in that case, he will lose the way to contain the ministers, how to control it?

Master of Ceremonies.

Wang Zhen was crouching down at the desk to practice calligraphy, he was originally a teacher so he could write well, when a eunuch hurriedly walked in the door and whispered a few words in his ear.

"What, Xue Xuan put on a concert to impeach Jinyiwei and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the emperor sent someone to send the concert to King Zhong?" Wang Zhenyan couldn't help but show a look of surprise on his face, and turned his head to look at the eunuch, the tip of the pen in his hand stopped, leaving a cloud of ink on the rice paper.

"Father-in-law, it was sent by our people around the emperor, and the chief manager sent someone to send a concerto." The eunuch nodded and replied solemnly, the "Lord Steward" in his mouth naturally referred to Song Dashan.

"This Xue Xuan is really troublesome." Wang Zhen groaned for a moment when he heard this, leaned over to finish the words he had not finished, and left a slightly abrupt ink spot on the paper due to the pause just now, destroying the overall beauty of the words.

"My father-in-law's handwriting is so good, the pen is strong, and the artistic conception is far-reaching." At this time, the eunuch standing on the side stepped forward, first looked at Wang Zhen's writing and praised it, and then bowed down to Wang Zhen with a sneer, "I don't know if my father-in-law can give this painting to the small one, and the small one will be taken home and framed and hung in the room, and it will also be stained with some book fragrance." ”

"I've rewarded you." Hearing this, a smug look flashed at the corner of Wang Zhenyan's mouth, and he nodded generously to the eunuch, the other party's sycophants were just right, and he was very comfortable to shoot.

"Thank you." The eunuch hurriedly nodded and thanked Wang Zhen, holding the painting as if he had received a treasure.

"Go to Qianqing Palace!" Wang Zhen smiled when he saw this, then his face sank, and he walked out of the door.

He wanted to solve Xue Xuan's matter as soon as possible, but it backfired, and something went wrong in the middle, Xue Xuan not only impeached Jinyiwei and the Duchayuan, but also handed over the chapter to Li Yuntian.

In this case, Li Yuntian would have to intervene in Xue Xuan's affairs, and then things would become complicated, and Wang Zhen would have to change his plan in order to balance the interests of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

In Wang Zhen's view, the only reason for Li Yuntian's intervention in Xue Xuan's case is the face of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and with Li Yuntian's IQ, he can definitely see that Xue Xuan's case is not as simple as it seems.

But it is precisely because of the face of the Metropolitan Procuratorate that Wang Zhen feels extremely headache, of course he knows Li Yuntian's ability to try cases, if Li Yuntian intervenes in the case of He and Xue Xuan, then all the truth will be revealed, and not only will his plan fail, but the inner court will also suffer a lot of blows, so he definitely does not want to see this happen.

With Wang Zhen's understanding of Li Yuntian, if he wants to solve the current crisis, then the only way to solve the current crisis is to invite the orthodox emperor out, otherwise Li Yuntian will definitely investigate the He family's case after receiving Xue Xuan's impeachment note sent by the orthodox emperor, so that Xue Xuan will escape this catastrophe, and the face of the inner court will be disgraced because of this.

In a sense, the orthodox emperor sent Xue Xuan's impeachment note to Li Yuntian, just to let Li Yuntian find out about He's case, which can be regarded as an explanation to Xue Xuan, and it is also a warning to the Imperial Procuratorate to supervise the imperial history.

But the orthodox emperor didn't know at this time that not long ago, Xue Xuan had been arrested by Wang Zhen through Jinyiwei and put in prison, and once Li Yuntian intervened in the He case, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Qianqing Palace.

In the inner hall of the Qianqing Palace, Wang Zhen knelt in front of the shocked orthodox emperor with his head touching the ground, and Song Dashan stood aside silently, and there were only three of them in the entire hall.

"Big mate, you arrested Xue Shaoqing and put him in prison?" For a long time, the orthodox emperor looked at Wang Zhen in surprise, Wang Zhen had just told him about Xue Xuan's edict.

It is worth mentioning that because Wang Zhen and Song Dashan grew up with the orthodox emperor since childhood, the orthodox emperor usually called the two "big companions" to show their cordiality.

"Your Majesty, Xue Xuan is a famous person in the clear stream, and he has a high prestige among civil officials, if you want to let those civil officials behave down, you must teach Xue Xuan a lesson."

Wang Zhen raised his head when he heard this, and said to the orthodox emperor worriedly, "Those civil officials have been aggressive recently, trying in vain to attack the celebrant to manipulate the state affairs, if they don't let them taste the power, they will still gain an inch, and the Ming Dynasty will be played with by them in the future." ”

"Xue Xuan is a loyal minister of the country, is this too unfair to him." Hearing the words "playing in the palm of his hand", the Orthodox Emperor's face couldn't help but shudder, and then he frowned and said.

To tell the truth, the orthodox emperor still admires Xue Xuan, although Xue Xuan is a little unkind, but he is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, much stronger than those scheming ministers, and it is also a kind of supervision and spur to the various factions in the capital.

"Your Majesty, although Xue Xuan is upright, he is a civil official after all, and like Lin Cong, he is easily encouraged by those civil officials in the court, and then becomes a tool used by those people to interfere in court politics."

Wang Zhen smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said to the orthodoxy with a gloomy expression, "Your Majesty, the society of the country is important, and in order to make those ill-intentioned civil officials in the court have scruples, they can only grieve Xue Xuan." ”

"Your Majesty, if Xue Xuan is safe and sound, then the arrogance of those civil officials will be even more arrogant, please think twice!" As he spoke, Wang Zhen knelt down again and kowtowed to the orthodox emperor, and said with sad eyes.

"Ome, what do you want me to do?" A complicated look flashed across the Orthodox Emperor's face, and he asked helplessly after a deep groan.

Since he became pro-government, he has really felt the pressure brought by the Chinese official clique in the DPRK, and his every word and deed will be picked on by those civil officials in the DPRK, and the civilian officials also want him to handle government affairs according to their wishes, otherwise they will move out a lot of rules and regulations to pressure him, which makes him feel depressed.

For a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy Tianzi, the power of the Chinese official clique was too strong, and the orthodox emperor had to admire his imperial grandmother, the Empress Dowager Zhang, who was able to easily deter the clique of civil officials in the court.

If it weren't for Li Yuntian, the Orthodox Emperor's life would be even more difficult now, Li Yuntian not only contained the noble group in the court, but also balanced the forces of all parties in the court, which made the Orthodox Emperor much easier.

But as Wang Zhen said, the civil official group in the court forced the orthodox emperor to let the orthodox emperor govern the country according to the ideas of the civil official group, although those ideas are likely to be beneficial to the Ming Dynasty but the orthodox emperor is unacceptable, after all, he is the son of heaven of the Ming Dynasty and the master of the country.

Therefore, due to the conflict between the monarchy and the vassals, Xue Xuan inevitably became a victim of the power game, and the orthodox emperor would give up on him even if he appreciated Xue Xuan, as the Son of Heaven, he must first learn to give up, only in this way can he better control the country.

"Your Majesty, Prince Zhong will definitely carefully try the case of the He family after receiving the chapter you gave him, as far as the slave knows, the He family did not murder her husband, it was the concubine Yue who wanted to elope with someone and deliberately framed him, so the slave can know about this matter, so the loyal prince will definitely know."

Wang Zhenlai had already thought of countermeasures before, and replied in an orderly manner when he heard this, "Therefore, the slave hopes that the emperor can let the slave participate in the trial to ensure that Xue Xuan can be convicted smoothly, and with the wisdom of the loyal prince, he definitely knows what to do." ”

"Okay, I'll do what you say." The orthodox emperor understood Wang Zhen's worries, and after a moment of silence, he nodded, and agreed with a solemn expression.

The He case is the key to Xue Xuan's conviction, so there must be no mistakes, otherwise the inner court will be in a big mess this time, and the civil official group will have the upper hand in the contest with the inner court, which is not what the orthodox emperor wants to see.

"Thank you for your grace!" Wang Zhenyan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he heard this, and hurriedly kowtowed to the orthodox emperor, as long as he gave a hint during Li Yuntian's trial, then Li Yuntian would definitely know what to do, so as not to make the situation get out of control.

"Two big friends, the affairs of the inner court will have to worry about the two of you!" The orthodox emperor sighed helplessly, got up and helped Wang Zhen up, and then said to Wang Zhen and Song Dashan on the side with a solemn expression, the two are the people he can rely on the most, and he has deep feelings for the two.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, we must go all out to prevent those civil officials from controlling the government." Song Dashan and Wang Zhen hurriedly bowed to the orthodox emperor when they heard this, and said in a resolute tone.

At the same time, the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Surrounded by several guards, an attendant quickly entered the gate of the Imperial Court and walked straight to Li Yuntian's public house.

This chamberlain was the person sent by Song Dashan to send Xue Xuan's chapter to Li Yuntian, and he first went to the lecture hall, and hurried over after learning that Li Yuntian had gone to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

In the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Li Yuntian was checking the official documents in his hand while waiting for Zheng Xiang to detain the neighbors of the He family and the colleagues of Zhao Du's command Tongzhi for questioning.

"Lord Zhong, the emperor asked the little one to send you this recital." After checking the waist card of the chamberlain, the chamberlain was let in by the guards of the Zhongwang Mansion who were guarding the door, came to the house and bowed to Li Yuntian, and then took out a piece of music from his arms, held it in both hands and sent it over.

Li Yuntian was a little surprised when he heard this, he didn't know what difficulties the orthodox emperor had encountered, so he sent someone to send him the concerto, and asked Yun Na to lead the chamberlain and a few guards to go down to receive the reward and then open the concerto and look at it.

"Come on, call Lord Chen and them." After reading the recital, Li Yuntian's brows furrowed slightly, and he was a little uncertain about the mind of the orthodox emperor for a while, in his opinion, this recital was too abrupt, and he shouted at the guards at the door for a while, ready to call Chen Zhi and other officials of the Imperial Court to discuss this matter.
