The memorial of the Censor Wang Xian impeached the King of Luyang. Although the cabinet votes were drafted "On the Rule", the emperor stayed at the end of the Communist Party of China and did not issue it.

The first morning court, I had a quarrel with the ministers, and the matter ended without success.

On the morning court the next day, Wang Xian was interrupted by the emperor just as he was about to come forward to speak.

On the third day, he really couldn't stand it. The emperor called Zhu Zhongjun to the palace again and asked him about Qianlan.

This time, Zhu Zhongjun knew the point and denied that he had a relationship with Qianlan.

"... Qianlan came to my mansion and I was only twelve years old. I was not better until the earth dragon turned over. Although Qianlan was given to her father, she was a clean girl. If you don't believe me, take it

She asked, "Zhu Zhongjun said.

Many people want to say this, but they feel it is inappropriate.

They can sue the King of Luyang who violated the law but dare not insult the King of Luyang.

Since the King of Luyang himself wants to deny it, it is best to ask Qianlan to ask.

"In this way, I took Wu Qianlan to the capital to prove that the innocence of the King of Luyang." The emperor said.

#####

The King of Luyang violated the law, and he himself denied it.

Qianlan needs to be brought to prove whether what King Luyang said is true.

It will take two months to come back from Luzhou to Beijing.

Zhu Zhongjun's wedding date is scheduled one month later.

Whether the wedding of King Luyang could be held as scheduled, the Ministry of Rites first raised it and asked the emperor for his opinion. As a result, the emperor did not speak and the ministers started arguing first.

In theory, the things that King Luyang committed only require sticks and shackles to show public orders and shackles, and there is no need to go to jail. His wedding was given by the emperor and should be done as scheduled.

But some ministers felt that the crime of King Luyang was not decided, and given his respect for the ancestor system, his marriage should be postponed.

Most of the people who oppose the marriage of King Luyang have some friendship with the Xia Shoufu or the Tan family.

The emperor is a little strange.

He privately told Liu Shuhe to Liang: "Why do I feel it is very strange to impeach the King of Luyang this time? It doesn't seem to be for me, nor for the purpose of establishing a queen, but it seems to be deliberately making things difficult for the King of Luyang.

, want to mess up his marriage..."

Liu Shu is also the eunuch of the Sili Prison.

He said, "Have Your Majesty been worried too much? The King of Luyang is a fool, why should the Tan family go against him?"

Xiang Liang Ze said, "The King of Luyang is already ready. A good person. Why can't the Tan family get along with him? I think that if the Censor Wang Xian was not from the Tan family, he would have been so embarrassed by the Tan family."

Liu Shu knew the emperor's intentions. The emperor hated the Tan family, so he casually said that the Tan family was not good. He had no unique insights.

The beam is different.

Xiang Liang helped the emperor criticize the royal family. He had some little knowledge of the government affairs and was not even inferior to a middle-class courtier. The emperor listened more seriously to his words.

Why is the Tan family unable to get along with him for a good fool?

It is just the beginning of the Tan family's past techniques, traitors, and lewd residence. It is just the beginning; then kill Qianlan in Shangjing, and blame the King of Luyang to kill people to silence him. Putting the King of Luyang to death is like the Tan family's style.

The Tan family will do things without purpose and will cause such a trivial matter as a lewd residence.

"The Tan family, why do you want to harm the King of Luyang?" the emperor asked suddenly.

He turned his gaze to Liang.

Xiang Liang and Liu Shu were both confidants of the emperor. He believed that the two of them could tell the truth in front of them, so he had no scruples.

"Your Majesty. The day when the Earth Dragon turned over, the King of Luyang woke up." Xiang Liang said. "Isn't this a harsh gift from God to Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager?

This is what we know.

The Tan family members are everywhere. If they know other blessings, God predicts that the King of Luyang is Your Majesty’s blessing and can assist Your Majesty in his reputation forever. Long live Your Majesty, there are many princes and grandchildren, and the Tan family knows very well that you are not only in love with the prince, how can you

Anything is not in a hurry?”

The emperor pondered Xiang Liang's words.

The Tan family and powerful officials were like a tug-of-war.

In the hands of the late emperor, the Tan family was very powerful.

Their family sent twin sisters to the crown prince's mansion, one became the crown prince's concubine and the other became the partial concubine. In the future, no matter who gave birth to a son, the crown prince's eldest son would be the grandson of the Tan family.

When the late emperor was alive, the court also formed cliques and private affairs.

In order to balance, the late emperor always praised the Tan family.

At that time, the Yu family, the mother of the late emperor's legitimate mother, was too powerful, which formed a constraint.

The late emperor praised the Tan family and competed with the Yu family.

After nearly twenty years of fighting, the Empress Dowager died for five or six years, the Emperor took action against Yu.

The Yu family collapsed for a moment.

The Tan family is dominant.

After Yu's family disappeared, the late emperor was also afraid of the Tan family.

But the Tan family has always been low-key and tolerant and has no handle.

Besides, the government is piled up like a mountain, and even if the emperor does not rest for twelve hours, he cannot handle 10%. He needs the chief minister, the cabinet, and civil servants and military generals.

This country belongs to the emperor, and it takes talents to manage the country.

The Tan family is not only a powerful official, but also a talent.

The Yu family was destroyed, and the Tan family became more and more low-key, and the old Marquis Tan even resigned as the chief minister.

Then, someone recommended Xia Wei.

At that time, Xia Wei had no contact with the Tan family on the surface.

It was not until he became the chief minister that the emperor knew that he was the most capable disciple of the Tan family.

When I knew it, it was too late.

After dealing with Yu's family, the late emperor was a little proud and neglected the matter of Xia Wei.

The disciples of the Tan family were spread all over the government and the country, and the late emperor realized that he had missed the opportunity to deal with the Tan family.

The late emperor also made some efforts in his later years, but he could not defeat the Tan family.

In the tug-of-war with the late emperor, the Tan family won.

The new emperor ascended the throne and praised Gu Yantao, favored him and even encouraged him to form a clique, and the situation improved slightly.

Therefore, the Tan family has long been dissatisfied with the new emperor.

Before, the eldest prince had not yet become the crown prince, and it was not right that the Tan family took action.

Now that the emperor has been defeated and the prince has ascended the throne, can the Tan family cover up the sky again?

If you want to destroy the emperor, you can't just murder it.

The method used by the Tan family is to wait forever.

They should be justified.

If Zhongjun was really the emperor's blessing and harboured the eternal world of the country. Wouldn't it make the Tan family dissatisfied? They couldn't wait.

The Tan family has no military power, so they dare not rebel openly.

They could only drag down the emperor's efforts in government affairs.

"...I also think that the King of Luyang is the gospel of the emperor." When the eunuch Liu Shu saw that Xiang Liang had touched the emperor's thoughts, he immediately spoke up and wanted to get a share of the pie.

The emperor pondered slightly and did not come back to his senses.

Xiang Liang no longer spoke.

####

It was late at night and the palace was silent.

Today, the emperor stopped at the Jinghe Palace of Concubine Gu De.

The eunuch on duty was Liu Shu.

Gu Yantao is about to get rid of the patronage.

After he was exiled, his position became a relish for the ministers in the court.

In order to stabilize the people's hearts of Gu Yantao's sect, the emperor went to Gu Defei all day long during this period, and was full of favor.

The court officials knew that Gu Yantao would still be the chief master in the future, and the emperor would value him even more.

Xiang Liang didn't have to be on duty, so he returned to his residence.

The blue sky on a summer night. The crescent moon is like a hook.

The blue roof covered with stars was burning with thin light.

The forbidden palace was pitch black.

When it was the third update of the drum, the palace guards were changing their duties, they stood up towards Liang and headed towards Kunning Palace.

The guard on duty saw him and pretended not to see him.

They are all the confidants of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother didn't sleep either.

She sat on the big kang next to the window of the side hall. She held a circle of sandalwood-carved Buddhist beads in her hand and counted them one by one.

The night sanks. The insects sing.

The summer night is very lively.

Someone opened the corner door, and the queen mother asked Aunt Cheng to go out for a look.

Aunt Cheng was ordered to leave.

She led Xiang Liang in.

"The Empress Dowager." Kneel down to Liang and pay tribute to the Empress Dowager.

"Get up." The Empress Dowager raised her eyes and smiled kindly, "Give her seat to her father-in-law."

Aunt Cheng led Xiang Liang to take his seat.

Then, Aunt Cheng also withdrew.

In the side hall of Kunning Palace, there are only the Empress Dowager and Xiang Liang.

"The meaning of the Ai family. Have you passed it to the emperor?" the empress dowager asked him.

Nodded to Liang: "Everything is as the Queen Mother said. I have already told Your Majesty the guess that King Luyang is the emperor's gospel. Your Majesty listened to it..."

The Empress Dowager was pleased and praised: "You are so busy with your work, and the Ai family trusts you the most."

"I am telling the truth." Xiang Liangdao, "I have always known that the King of Luyang is loyal. Your Majesty can govern the country in literature and maintain peace in martial arts. It's just that it's too hard. Having a brother to solve his problems is your Majesty's blessing. Luyang

The king is the gospel of His Majesty.”

The queen mother's smile was even more gentle.

The Empress Dowager never thought of abolishing the emperor and establishing the King of Luyang. Liang knew this clearly. He had been in the palace for so many years.

But the Empress Dowager hopes that the emperor and his brothers will be harmonious.

The palms and backs are full of flesh.

Xiang Liang also felt that the King of Luyang would not have the intention to rebel.

Now the King of Luyang is already great. If the emperor can let go of Chen Jian, the King of Luyang may be a brave general and assist the emperor.

Therefore, the Empress Dowager asked Xiang Liang to do things and guide the emperor to lead the King of Luyang to the "gospel" path, and agreed to Liang.

This matter is beneficial to the emperor and to the empress dowager.

There must be someone who said that Xiang Liang was willing to help the empress dowager and untie the emperor's knot.

"The late emperor valued you and said that you could help the emperor in the future. The Ai family believed that he was convinced at that time." The empress dowager smiled, "Now, the Ai family is counting on you and taking care of the emperor more."

This is the truth.

The Queen Mother has always admired Xiang Liang.

Xiang Liang felt very at ease, and he said, "I will serve Your Majesty with all my duty, and the Empress Dowager does not need to worry about Your Majesty. But if there is a foreign minister who reports this "gospel", your Majesty will believe more. I will not give it to your external ministers.

Make friends, I'm afraid..."

"Don't worry, the Ai family has their own arrangements for this matter." said the Empress Dowager.

After Xiang Liang finished speaking, he quietly left the corner gate of Kunning Palace and returned to his residence.

He did not alarm anyone.

After walking towards Liang, the Empress Dowager stood up and returned to the bedroom.

She was a little tired.

Boiling medicine and waiting for Liang to reach this time made her very difficult.

"The Ai family has two sons, but they are not close to you." The Empress Dowager sighed to Aunt Cheng, "Is it because the Ai family was young that they were too damaging their morality, or is it because the Ai family was incompetent in tutoring their children?"

Aunt Cheng hurriedly knelt down and said, "Empress Dowager, you have given birth to a wise monarch, and you have achieved great success in the world, and your contributions are in the country."

The Queen Mother smiled and asked Aunt Cheng to get up.

"The Ai family is old and complains without any illness." The Queen Mother said, "Don't listen."

Then, she seemed to say to herself, "Xiaoqi has deep affection for Zhongjun, and Zhongjun even took her as a life. Their wedding cannot be postponed anymore. Zhongjun is better, and the Ai family can no longer stimulate him...

…”

She was very sure of Gu Jinzhi's feelings for the King of Luyang.

The Queen Mother’s biggest wish at present is to watch her youngest son get married and start a business.
