If one were to talk about the showdown between the eunuch s of the harem, their scheming and scheming were not the least bit inferior to the government at all. The officials in the palace would go and impeach Zhang Juzheng, and within the imperial harem, there were eunuch s who were restless, wanting to overturn Feng Bao, this huge mountain that was right above their heads.
Feng Bao had been waiting in front of the imperial palace these past few days, from morning till night.
But he also didn't expect that there was actually such a moron who, in order to trip him up, would even spread the news that Zhang Juzheng and Empress Dowager Li were involved, even saying that he, Feng Bao, was someone who helped them keep this a secret.
Feng Bao knelt outside the hall while Zhang Cheng, Feng Shang and the other eunuchs followed behind him. The other young eunuchs all left the hall far behind. Feng Shang was a bit uneasy and kept looking at Feng Bao. Feng Bao bit his tongue and cursed. This idiot, he could just obediently kneel now.
Feng Bao looked at Zhang Cheng, who knelt down respectfully. It was unknown what he was thinking, but Feng Bao thought that maybe he had always thought that the Feng Shang was able to control this brat, because he was too arrogant, and this brat, who he thought was just playing with His Majesty, had become his trusted confidant. And although Zhang Cheng was respectful in front of him, he never got close to him.
If he himself had this kind of comprehension ability.
Most likely, the reason he had survived the disaster this time was because he needed to form a good relationship with him.
In the hall, Zhu Yijun looked at the people kneeling down with an ashen face, "Is what you said true?"
"Your Majesty, I dare not lie to you." He thought that he had walked down the Azure Cloud Road, where Feng Bao had become his trusted aide. However, it was related to the royal family's fortune, who could say that it wasn't a road to death?
"This servant didn't see it with her own eyes, but this servant knew that the palace maid that served the empress dowager and the palace maid that served her in the past were all changed overnight." That person said while trembling in fear, "Also, Feng Dajie also brought a bit of it out when he was drunk. Everyone around him knows that, but no one dares to say anything about fear and Zhang Juzheng's power."
Zhu Yijun clenched his fists, "Chen Ju."
A eunuch appeared in the previously empty hall. His footsteps were light and graceful as he stood there with his hands hanging by his sides. He was clearly a practitioner.
Zhu Yijun indicated for him to settle the man kneeling on the ground, Chen Ju stepped forward, covered the man's mouth and twisted his neck, then the man silently died. Chen Ju dragged the corpse out of the hall. Zhu Yijun's sinister voice sounded. "Go investigate the palace maid of Ci'an Palace."
Chen Ju nodded.
Chen Ju carried the person on his back and walked out of the hall, but he did not need to personally take care of the corpse, he wanted to go and investigate the palace maid s of Ci'an Palace. This was not something that could be resolved in a short period of time, because everything required his personal experience to be investigated, the less people knew about this, the better.
Zhu Yijun had been sitting alone in the hall the entire time. He did not call out to the people kneeling outside the hall, and only when it was time for him to come, he called out to Zhang Cheng from the hall. Zhang Cheng walked over with his knees crossed and said between the cubicles, "Go to Kunning Palace, and said that we are going to discuss politics with the ministers today. Today, even if you do not go to Kunning Palace, ask the empress not to bring Rong Chang over."
"Yes." Zhang Cheng said.
Zhang Cheng hurriedly left the hall. Feng Bao and Feng Shang were still kneeling outside. gave him a look of disdain before entering the hall to serve him. Feng Shang shrank back a bit, but he didn't dare do so.
Feng Bao could only raise his eyebrows and humph, he absolutely could not go in front of His Majesty right now, only if his Majesty wanted to meet him would he be able to do so.
Wang Rong was surprised to hear what Li Gong had meant, "Is Zhang Cheng still here?"
When Li Gong said that he was still there, Wang Rong He invited him in. I had something to ask him, so Zhang Cheng paid his respects to Wang Rong and he retreated. After frowning, he asked him, "Did something happen to Qianqing Palace?"
"I can't say." Zhang Cheng said.
Wang Rong He saw that there was nothing else he couldn't understand, "Since it's hard to say, I won't ask. But when the situation is uncertain, you must come and inform me." I am of the same body as His Majesty and his wife, so I will not leave anything behind.
Zhang Cheng nodded in agreement.
"This is a biscuit used by the Shang Guan to grind Rong Chang's teeth. It's fine if I use it, but take this plate of biscuit to His Majesty for a taste." Wang Rong He said.
After Zhang Cheng left, Wang Rong held onto his chest, feeling that his mind was not right, as though something was going to happen? She looked through the window frame in the direction of the Qianqing Palace.
Zhang Cheng placed the biscuit empress had given him in front of Zhu Yijun's table. This is a snack prepared by the Shang Cui Overseer for your highness. It's used well by the empress and sent over for your majesty to have a taste. "
"Did she ask what the situation was?" Zhu Yijun asked hoarsely. He had been in this position for a long time, complaining of discomfort in every part of his body, but he did not want to move.
"The Empress asked, but I didn't say anything." Zhang Cheng said. He raised his head and glanced at His Majesty, then carefully said, "But the Empress said that she and His Majesty are husband and wife, and there is absolutely no matter to separate them from each other. The Empress wants this little one to remember, that if things aren't good, I must pass on the message to her."
"Don't tell the empress about this if it's not my wish." Zhu Yijun said.
Zhang Cheng agreed. Seeing Zhu Yijun slowly take out a biscuit and put it in his mouth, he went over and brewed a pot of hot tea.
Zhu Yijun was very calm, at least he thought so. He took out all the papers from under pressure to reread them, and placed them neatly in the name of impeachment, authority, use of power to seek for personal gains, to appoint trusted aides, he had no respect for the imperial government, he kidnapped six tribes, and suppressed the integrity and corruption. Even the reforms that Zhang Juzheng had implemented were also deemed as violations of the ancestor system.
Other than impeaching Zhang Juzheng, most of the people that Zhang Juzheng recommended for appointment were also impeached.
That day, when Zhu Yijun had asked Pan Cheng to send a letter to the official, he had suppressed the debt of impeachment towards Zhang Juzheng. At that time, he was still thinking, should he clear Zhang Juzheng right away, to what extent should he clear it to? It was just as Zitong had said, it was better for Zhang Juzheng to die now, because he would benefit more from Zhang Juzheng than others. Although he did not like, he still respected him, and did not hate him for being so quick to die in a few years.
There was no need to be so anxious to settle old debts after Zhang Juzheng's death.
But now, as Zhu Yijun flipped through these impeachment charges, his face was calm, his eyes red, he knew that if this matter was true, he would very much like to go to the grave and whip the corpse to vent his hatred.
The hatred of the humiliation of his mother was irreconcilable.
In these few days, the pressure on the Qianqing Palace wasn't right, the concubines of the harem couldn't enter the Qianqing Palace without being summoned by the Emperor, and could only be tested a little when the Emperor gave them his regards. How could the Emperor not summon the harem?
Wang Rong He smiled but remained silent, not saying anything.
She had only said that she didn't know when Empress Dowager Li asked her for greetings at the Palace of Tzu An. Perhaps she still had one or two eyes and ears, but they were far from the perimeter and could not get too close. It could be said that Her Majesty had been in a bad mood for the past few days, but no one knew why.
"The empress should be concerned about His Majesty too." Empress Dowager Li said unhappily.
"This son asked about His Majesty's recent meals and sleeping arrangements. I wanted to go there the day before yesterday, but His Majesty said that I was busy with government affairs, so he told me not to disturb him." Wang Rong gave a wry smile and said, "This king is suffering because of his government affairs. This son is unable to help and can only have people keep an eye on his room and room."
"Sigh, after Zhang Juzheng's death, it will not be easy for His Majesty to completely grasp the political affairs of the country and take care of everything in an orderly fashion." The Empress Dowager Li said, "You just need to remember to advise His Majesty that government is not finished and that you shouldn't hurt your body. Also, do not neglect the harem. "
"I'm from the province of ChenChen." Wang Rong He said.
In these two and a half days, Chen Ju had gone to the imperial palace to report everything he had discovered. "Ten thousand years, ten thousand years. In ten thousand years, a different set of Qianqing Palace s have been used on a different set of palace maid s, and all of them have been changed from the inside to the outside.
"I remember." Zhu Yijun said, "When we ascended the throne, we still had a few eunuchs in our Qianqing Palace, but suddenly, all of them were young eunuchs.
"Now think about it, for a young eunuch like Zhang Cheng who had only been in the palace for a few months, how could he choose Qianqing Palace to serve, or serve from a close distance."
"Ten thousand years, three years, and at the beginning of four years, the palace maid s in the rear palace went through a major change as well.
"Where are the people around Ci'an Palace?" Zhu Yijun asked.
"Except for the two mama, the rest have been replaced." Chen Ju said, "But all of the palace maid s in Palace of Gentle Serenity were also replaced at that time. At that time, the harem only had these two true masters. "
"Are those who set off the palace really living well outside?" Zhu Yijun asked.
Chen Ju's heart was pounding like a drum, he had not slept for three days, but he knew that he could not afford to be careless at this time, "I've already investigated all the palace maid's servants that were released from the Ci'an Palace, and they have either died or gone missing since they left the palace."
Zhu Yijun suddenly hammered the table, letting out a loud sound before rushing out of the hall like a tornado. "Go to Ci'an Palace."
Chen Ju quickly followed. He found the time to say to Zhang Cheng, "Hurry and invite empress to the Ci'an Palace."
Zhu Yijun entered the Tzu'an Palace with a vicious aura around him. When he saw the Empress Dowager Li, he did not bow first, but looked straight at her instead, "mother still remembers that in the past three to four years, you have changed the Qianqing Palace and the palace maid that the harem served."
"Why did Your Majesty suddenly say all these?" Empress Dowager Li squinted her eyes and said, "Where is His Majesty's etiquette? Don't you need to say hello to This Dowager first? "
"First, mother will answer my question. Why don't you take my place?" Zhu Yijun said.
"Why is it fine? "Of course there's a reason." Empress Dowager Li said, "palace maid of Qianqing Palace, you dare to tempt His Majesty to have fun, shouldn't you change it?"
"At that time, there weren't many masters in the imperial harem. When His Majesty has a consort, these people would become old once again, so when the imperial palace is released, what's wrong with that?"
"Then how does mother explain it? The ten palace maid s that were released from mother were all killed or disappeared all those years ago. None of them survived." Zhu Yijun asked word by word.
