Seiwa

With Zhao Wei's words, he completely stabbed the hornet's nest.

Dingyuan Hou is a good Longyang, there have been rumors in Beijing, but they are only spread in private, no one dares to bring it to the table, let alone shout it in front of the emperor.

At most, I can refer to Dingyuan Hou's private morals, and his life style is problematic.

Apart from some hindrance to Shen Xuan's own reputation, to be honest, it is not as serious as the problem of the excessive number of wives and concubines in an official's family.

When the rumors first started, the palace specially summoned Marquis Dingyuan to meet him, but there was no reprimand, but it was heard that the emperor lost his temper because Marquis Dingyuan was "slandered" by the rumors.

Those who can be in the royal class are not fools, as long as their minds are not muddled, they can understand the emperor's attitude towards this matter.

The reason why everyone avoids this matter is that Marquis Dingyuan is the adopted son of the emperor. Apart from his eldest son, he has a very good relationship with Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui.

Rumors in private don't matter much, if you gossip about Dingyuan Hou in front of the court, if you accidentally drag the emperor's son, do you want to die?

Even if the palace cannot be investigated face to face due to various reasons, are Wei Guogong's mansion and Wuyang Hou's mansion easy to provoke?

Zhao Wei was dragged all the way down by the Great Han General, and his hoarse shouts were still heard in Fengtian Hall.

At this moment, not only Zhu Di wanted to kill him, but also civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Unless Zhao Wei's luck is against the sky, otherwise, ten out of ten will die on the way to the southwest to support education.

It is true that you must have a fighting spirit to be a spokesperson, and it is true that you have to fight until the last moment of your life, but there are some things that cannot be said, and some things that cannot be done.Zhao Wei's ability to teach is extraordinary, and his ability to be an official obviously needs to be tempered.

Unfortunately, he didn't have this chance.

Zhao Wei was dragged down, Zhu Di remained silent, and there was a low air pressure in Fengtian Hall.

The courtiers didn't dare to speak out, especially the civil servants, they didn't dare to take a breath.

Uncle Xingning is a disaster, and Zhao Wei is an even bigger disaster!

It is understandable for Xing Ningbo to pick their faults, because their positions are different.

Before Zhao Wei left, he wanted to dig a hole for everyone, and face the emperor's wrath for no reason. He really deserved to be beaten and kicked ten thousand times, and twelve ribs were discounted!

Zhu Neng, Zhang Fu and other generals were sweating on their foreheads, what should they say at this time?

Stern words prove that Zhao Wei is slandering?Will it add fuel to the fire?

Glancing at the slandered party, Zhu Neng, Zhang Fu and others were really undecided.

In the solemn atmosphere, Meng Qinghe suddenly stepped out, knelt down, and lowered his eyes without saying a word.

Shen Xuan immediately came out and knelt beside Meng Qinghe with a cold face.

The two said at the same time: "Your Majesty, please make the decision."

Civil servants and military generals looked at each other, and Zhu Di pressed his eyebrows.

How to explain the situation at hand?

anger?

Wronged?

Ask the emperor to give justice, and shoot Zhao Wei to death on the spot?

still is……

Xie Jin and the others looked at Shen Xuan and Meng Qinghe who were kneeling on the ground, and many thoughts flashed through their minds, the one closest to the truth was the first to be thrown away.

Zhu Neng, Zhang Fu and others wanted to help, but they didn't know how to ask.

After a long silence, Zhu Di sighed and said, "Marquis Dingyuan and Uncle Xingning, get up, I know what the two lovers are like, and I will definitely decide for you two."

If he knew what consequences this sentence would bring in the future, Zhu Di would definitely find a piece of tofu and kill him.

Those who went to X have no jokes, I was cheated in front of the court ministers!

Shen Xuan seemed to want to say something, but Meng Qinghe pulled his sleeve.

Shaking his head, the goal has been achieved, and if there is no better impromptu performance than Zhao Wei, it is better to accept it as soon as it is good.

Today's court meeting was really too disturbing, Emperor Yong Le expressed that he had a headache and was not in the mood to continue working, so he simply waved his hand, "Back the court!"

If there are more urgent matters, we will discuss them tomorrow.

Shen Xuan and Meng Qinghe stood up together, joined the ranks of generals, and exited Fengtian Hall with the sound of ceremony and music.

After walking out of the hall, Meng Qinghe was immediately surrounded by military officers and received various praises and thanks.

Just as he was being modest, an unkind gaze suddenly pierced over. Meng Qinghe raised his head, frowned, Xie Jin?

Xie Dacai had a smile on his face, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, "Please take a step slower, Uncle Xingning."

Meng Qinghe stopped and looked at Xie Jin, wondering what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

"What advice do you have for Xie Shidu?"

"I dare not speak out, but I just want to ask Uncle Xingning for advice." Xie Jin stepped up to Meng Qinghe and raised his voice, "It is said that Uncle Xingning was born as a child?"

"Yes." Meng Qinghe nodded and smiled lightly, not seeing the slightest anger towards the Shangyan officials in Fengtian Temple, "Xie Shidu is well-informed."

"Don't dare." Xie Jin changed the subject, "As a boy born in the class of military officials, he was promoted to a noble, and he fought with other officials, Xingning Bo is really a great talent."

When these words came out, the eyes that fell on Meng Qinghe were more or less contemptuous.

Abandoning literature and following martial arts is a disgrace to gentlemen.

Clever rhetoric, but actually a sycophant!

Meng Qinghe didn't see the slightest bit of annoyance, and said with a smile: "Don't dare, Xie Shidu has been praised. In many places, especially in the way of being an official, Meng still asks Xie Shidu for advice."

Meng Qinghe sneered, who wouldn't turn a corner and swear?

Xie Jin's Hongwu Dynasty spoke uprightly, and was angry with his book business, so he was demoted to the southwest. Emperor Hongwu just said a word, and he would use it ten years later.

As a result, in less than ten years, Emperor Hongwu made a great trip and Emperor Jianwen ascended the throne.The talented man Xie learned from the painful experience, and soon left behind his arrogance as a scholar, went to various places, and petitioned for an official.

Before King Yan entered Nanjing, Xie Jin, who was a close minister of Emperor Jianwen, packed up his burden and was the first to defect.

Just the word integrity can completely push him down.

Xie Dacai really thought that being praised by the emperor would protect him with golden armor?Can't beat him in Fengtian Temple, want to find a place outside the temple?

Go dream!

Being ridiculed by Meng Qinghe, Xie Jin's face turned blue and his cheeks tightened.

Meng Qinghe smiled, which not only angered Xie Jin, but also raised the hatred value of many civil servants by the way.

Seeing that the civil servants began to gather around Xie Jin, the generals also slowed down in twos and threes.

Uncle Xing Ning made the generals feel proud in the Fengtian Palace, these sour guys dare to trouble Uncle Xing, they just want to make everyone feel uncomfortable!

It doesn't matter if you don't do it, once you do it, one person counts as one, and the eight generations of ancestors will definitely not recognize it!

Responsibility afterwards?

At worst, they will be sent to guard the border, and a few more heads of Tartars will be cut off, and they will be promoted sooner or later.

The smell of gunpowder became stronger and stronger, and many people realized that something was wrong.

If this continues, things will get out of control.

Today's emperor doesn't need to build literature, and he doesn't take extra care of civil servants at all. Even if he is beaten by a general, there is a Xingning Bo who can turn black and white with pumice stones and trees. I'm afraid he won't get much justice.

Yang Rong and Yang Shiqi exchanged a veiled look and stepped forward together.Yang Shiqi held Xie Jin back, lest Xie Jin, a great talent, would really confront a group of warriors.Yang Rong opened his mouth to smooth things over.Although the reputation is not as good as Xie Jin, and the qualifications as an official are not as good as Yang Shiqi, when it comes to observing words and demeanor and building a good relationship with generals, Yang Rong is doing his part, and even Yang Shiqi admires him.

With Yang Shiqi's intervention and Yang Rong's smoothing over, Xie Jin couldn't get angry even if he was angry.Meng Qinghe smiled and bowed his hands to Yang Rong. When he saw this man in front of the palace gate, he felt that he was not a good person. Now it seems that he was right.

"Xie Shidu is upright, Uncle Xingning forgive me."

"Uncle Xing Ning deeply understands righteousness and is generous. He has been praised by the emperor many times, and Rong also admires him."

Listen, just a few words rounded up Xie Jin's fault-finding. It doesn't count if you shirk responsibility.

Squeezing his fingers, Meng Qinghe twitched the corner of his mouth mockingly,

Emperor Yong Le was obviously angry with the court officials, otherwise, how could he have obtained such detailed information from Ji Gang? According to Ji Gang, Yang Duo also helped a lot.

If he made trouble unreasonably once, what would the consequences be?Go it alone or have a gang fight?

It seems that Marquis Wuyang hasn't left yet?The presence of the emperor's brother-in-law is an absolute life-saving gold medal.

Meng Qinghe rubbed his chin and smiled maliciously.

He is a general, a reckless man.

In the mouths of these literati, isn't a reckless man just unreasonable?

Seeing Meng Qinghe's gaze, Yang Rong's back felt cold, and he took a step back subconsciously.He forgot about it, if Uncle Xingning didn't plan to reason with him, the matter would really not work out.

Thinking of this, Yang Rong couldn't help feeling dissatisfied with Xie Jin.When is it impossible to make trouble, it has to be now!The emperor just broke out a group of officials in the palace, still can't see the situation clearly?

Xing Ningbo smiled like a fox before stealing a chicken, and the generals understood.With grinning grins, he surrounded the civil servants, his fists clenched loudly.

Those who dare to do it, basically have death-free coupons sent by the emperor in batches at home.As long as no human life is caused, the emperor may not really dismiss him from office, and at most each will hit [-] big boards.

Fighting, getting angry, being reprimanded a few times, it doesn't hurt or itches.

In the final analysis, it is still taking advantage of yourself.

Facing the strong men with ferocious faces, some civil servants began to tremble in their calves.

Since it's none of their business, why are they surrounded?

If I knew this earlier, I wouldn't stay to watch the excitement even if I was killed!

At the critical moment, Zheng He led people to arrive, and the emperor summoned Marquis Dingyuan and Boxi Nuange of Xingning for interrogation.

This timely rain saved the civil servant who was almost beaten by the gang, and everyone looked at Zheng He with indescribable emotion in their eyes.

Zheng He rubbed his arms, hurriedly led Shen Xuan, Meng Qing and Shan Ren.

This is the official of the court?It's actually not as good as our eunuch man.

Uncle Xingning withdrew, and the group fight obviously couldn't go on.

The generals spread out the encirclement, and the civil servants ran away without caring about their demeanor.Don't care about other things, stay away from the place of right and wrong.

Facts have proved that "convincing people with reason" and "convincing people with force" collide, and the latter is more convincing.

In the West Nuan Pavilion of Fengtian Palace, Emperor Yongle, who had been dressed in a crowned horse, was sitting with a golden sword on his horse, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he was full of luck.

Of course, the anger was not aimed at Shen Xuan and Meng Qing's harmony.

Everyone in the old Zhu's family is protecting their weaknesses. Zhu Di recognizes that Shen Xuan is a good son. By the way, he also loves the house and hates the loyal and loyal Uncle Xing Ning. The bad ones must be those who trouble Shen Xuan and wantonly splash dirty water!

Meng Qinghe thought that if there was such a big commotion outside the hall, he would be reprimanded if he was not beaten.Unexpectedly, Zhu Di didn't even ask, and just said, "Xuan'er, I have wronged you!"

What's the situation?

"Your Majesty, I am not wronged." Shen Xuan said calmly, "Your Majesty is not allowed to marry a woman, so there is no need for Your Majesty to worry about you."

What kind of charade is this?

Meng Qinghe's mind raced, and it suddenly dawned on him.

Understood.

Regardless of the purpose of Zhao Wei calling out "Marquis of Dingyuan, Hao Longyang" in the matter given by the former Ministry of Rites, he is putting the rumors under the table on the table.

Shen Xuan's reputation for loving Longyang will definitely spread more and more widely.

Once used by people with ulterior motives, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble, but anyone who gets close to Shen Xuan will more or less be spread gossip.It is hard to say how popular Shen Xuan will be in the court in the future.

Lone minister?

The possibility is quite large.

The emperor could not directly order the suppression of rumors, nor could he block the news.In this way, the previous rumors are even more confirmed.

After comforting Shen Xuan, Zhu Di turned his attention to Meng Qinghe again.

Today's court meeting, Meng Qinghe's actions made him very satisfied.But it is foreseeable that those civil servants who have been put together will definitely not let him go easily.

Clan and hometown, old friends, teachers and students, in the same year on the same list.

The network of relationships weaved one by one, and the sharp mouths like blades will completely drive Meng Qinghe into the dust.

Behind Shen Xuan is the emperor, Zhu Neng and other Jingnan heroes, and the identity of Hongwu Emperor's righteous grandson.

What does Meng Qinghe have?Only Shen Xuan.Perhaps a Daoyan should be added.

It is conceivable that it will be difficult for him to move an inch in the court in the future.

Naturally, Meng Qinghe would not ignore what Zhu Di could think of.

With a wry smile, he knew that when today's incident happened, he was equivalent to standing on the opposite side of the entire civil official group.With the style of civil servants in Ming Dynasty, he would either press him to death or be pressed to death by him, and he would not give up easily.

One-to-many, his chances of winning are very small, but not completely impossible.

Zhao Wei's defection will definitely make Emperor Yong Le even more afraid of the civil official group.All the team members brought into Nanjing were poached, which shows how close the network of scholars is.

Zhu Di needs an entry point to tear apart this network of relationships, at least not to let this network become bigger and bigger, and eventually he will be included in it.

This is Meng Qinghe's opportunity.

He stood up by himself and told Zhu Di that he would be a nail and a sharp knife to tear apart this net!

While the risks are huge, the rewards are equally huge.

Now that you have made up your mind to take this gamble, there is no turning back.

What's more, judging from the emperor's attitude, the odds of winning in his hands are not small.

Zhu Di is not a good person in the traditional sense, but it is undeniable that to a certain extent, he can be regarded as a sweetheart, especially for his trusted confidants, and he is also quite defensive.

"Uncle Xingning."

"The minister is here."

"You did a great job today."

"Your Majesty praises me, but I am ashamed and dare not take it. It is my duty to do things for Your Majesty!"

Zhu Di nodded, and pressed the center of his eyebrows, "If the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty are as good as Xing Ningbo, I will be relieved."

Meng Qinghe bowed his head, not even daring to speak.

If Emperor Yong Le knew what he really thought, would he still say that?

Glancing at Shen Xuan, smacking his lips, will 100% cause an uproar, and make people drag him down to pick up his skin.

Wiping off his cold sweat, Meng Qinghe said, "Your Majesty, regarding today's matter in the palace, I have something to say..."

In order not to be pulled down, you must perform well!

Meng Qinghe believes that if he tries his best, the beauty... no, the victory will eventually belong to him!

In the Xinuang Pavilion, the performance of the three monarchs and ministers lasted for nearly two hours.

During this period, only Zheng He served in the Nuan Pavilion, and the eunuch who looked like a man was guarding the door of the Nuan Pavilion. For non-essential matters, the rest of the eunuchs and palace people dared not approach.

When it was time for dinner, Empress Xu sent someone to ask, and the door of the Nuan Pavilion was opened from the inside.

Zheng He said to the eunuch who came to inquire: "Your Majesty is discussing important matters with Xingning Bo, Marquis of Dingyuan, and I'm afraid you won't be free."

Empress Xu received the letter and sent someone to deliver a few plates of snacks, but she stopped asking.

After another half an hour, the door of Xinuange opened again.

Zhu Di kept Shen Xuan and Meng Qinghe in the palace for dinner, and did not let them leave the palace until the palace gate was closed.

Many people in the palace saw with their own eyes that the emperor patted Marquis Dingyuan and Uncle Xingning on the shoulders, and even said a few good words.As for where the good came from, everyone couldn't figure it out for a while.

When the brothers Zhu Gaochi heard the news, they didn't take any action on the surface, but they secretly sent people to inquire about what the father and Shen Xuan were talking about.

Is it something about the court, or something else?

The next day, the emperor issued several decrees in succession, causing an uproar in the court.

"Move the son into the Wenhua Palace, and set up the official office."

"Let the eminent monk Daoyan restore the name of the lay family, and promote the prince's junior teacher."

"The governor, He Fu, was the general who conquered the captives. He was in Ningxia and controlled the capital of Shaanxi. The governor, Han Guan, trained troops in Jiangxi and controlled Guangdong and Fujian. Xipinghou Musheng was in Yunnan. The king of Gaoyang County was in Kaiping, and he controlled Beiping and Daning."

Before the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty could get a glimpse of the truth from the series of orders issued by the emperor, two more decrees were issued, which made everyone stare at each other.

"Promote Mengqing and the first-class uncle, hereditary, and give iron coupons."

"Abolish Guangze Wang Yunxi and Huai'en Wang Yunxi as ordinary people."

Who are King Guangze and King Wynn?Zhu Yunwen's own brother!

No charge, no explanation, just abolished as a commoner?

Many courtiers began to panic, could it be that there will be another "cleaning" today?

Just when everyone's heart was pounding, Zhu Di suddenly stopped his movements, and there was no new order for several days in a row.

Is it really stopped or is it the calm before the storm?

Xie Jin, Hu Guang and others got together to study, but they couldn't figure out why for a long time.

Yang Rong and Yang Shiqi were also contemplating what the emperor wanted to do?

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were confused by the emperor's series of orders. Under hard thinking, they were restless all day long.Meng Qinghe, who had been promoted to the title, leisurely went to play chess and chat with Daoyan.

Although he was ordered by the emperor to return to vulgarity, Dao Yan still wore monk robes.

Sitting across from Meng Qinghe, twirling Buddhist beads, continuing the unfinished game of chess.

"Have you ever thought about the consequences of making a dangerous move?"

"I've thought about it." Meng Qinghe picked up a chess piece and landed it on the board without much thought, disrupting the whole chess game. drowned."

"so?"

"So I can't follow the rules." Meng Qinghe pointed to the point that disrupted the whole chess game, and said, "In this way, I have a way out."

"Have you really thought about it?"

"Think it over." Meng Qinghe corrected his posture and said, "If they don't come to provoke me, we can live in peace, but if they come here, they are arrogant and domineering to the point of disgusting, then you can't blame me for not obeying the rules. "

Quoting the scriptures and talking about fighting with each other is just an appetizer, and the real goal is to achieve the goal by making the person who provoked him sleepless at night.

"Is the matter between the son and the king of Gaoyang County related to you?"

"I really don't have this." Meng Qinghe quickly waved his hand, he knew how much he was, and it was okay to take advantage of it, but Zhu Gaoxu's defense of the border and Zhu Gaochi's entry into the Wenhua Palace had absolutely nothing to do with him, it was Emperor Yongle's handwriting .

He was just admonishing, using Zhao Wei's line to follow through and open a gap in the relationship network of civil servants.

After the rumors about the unusual relationship between Uncle Xingning and Marquis Dingyuan spread in Beijing, Yang Duo and Ji Gang started to act, and finally found out about King Guangze and King Huai'en who were guarding the cemetery. Meng Qinghe didn't expect that either.

How did they get the news of being locked up in the cemetery, and who did they contact?

Realizing that the water in it was deeper than he had imagined, Meng Qinghe retreated decisively. The last thing he needed at a time like this was curiosity.What did Yang Duo and Ji Gang find out in the end, Meng Qinghe didn't know, and didn't plan to know.

He only knew that it was enough for him to "defile himself" with Shen Xuan and give Emperor Yong Le an excuse and opportunity to pull out the thorn.

From this point of view, if anyone troubles him and Shen Xuan in the future, the emperor will take care of him.

and……

Meng Qinghe picked up another chess piece. With the rumors in Beijing, fewer and fewer people planned to marry Dingyuanhoufu.

Regardless of ulterior motives, those who really wanted to pick a son-in-law mostly retreated.

In the recent period, the number of people who came to Queen Xu to inquire has infinitely approached zero.By the way, Meng Qinghe, who became famous, was also crossed off the list of son-in-law by countless people.

Such a son-in-law is really not acceptable.

When Emperor Yong Le heard about the situation, he sat in the Queen's Palace, filled with guilt and lamentation. That's how Meng Qinghe's death-prevention certificate came about.

For someone, it can be considered a pleasant surprise.

Tong Daoyan played a complete game of chess, but Meng Qinghe still lost.

But he was in a pretty good mood.

Walking out of the temple, humming a ditty all the way, seeing Shen Xuan waiting outside the mountain gate, the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.

With iron coupons, can the beauty go far?
