chapter 322
After breakfast, Xiao Jingheng went to the imperial study, while Shangguanjing went to Qinghui Pavilion to find old man Feng for "classes".

Just like yesterday, he pretended to go through the procedure to salute, and then Shangguanjing immediately kicked him out.

Before old man Feng could speak, Shangguanjing said: "Go back and tell Liu Xiusong and the others that the emperor should be in good health. We have to wait for Jing Heng to come back from the imperial study to talk about the specifics. In short, let them not be blind." Worry, what should you do?"

"You're clever," Old Man Feng chuckled, "You guessed what they were going to ask."

"The emperor has been on the throne for so many years, and he has not come to the court for no reason. Is this the first time?" Shangguan Jing sighed: "It will take less than half an hour for such news to spread throughout the capital. It is normal for them to be worried. Don't say it." It's them, even I feel a little uneasy, but the empress dowager said it herself, she sent someone to check, the emperor is fine."

"Do you believe it?" Old Man Feng squinted at Shangguan Jing: "What if he deliberately kept it from you?"

"Impossible!" Shangguan Jing replied firmly: "This old lady is still thinking about holding a flower viewing banquet to choose Jing Heng's concubine today! I blocked her back. If the emperor really has something to do, how can she get this?" Feeling."

"There is such a thing?" Old man Feng became energetic when he heard it, and said very excitedly: "Quick! Tell this old man."

"Can you stop being so curious, old man?" Shangguan Jing gave old man Feng a small look of contempt: "What's there to talk about when women are bickering, you have to ask, if it's boring or not."

"Hey," Old Man Feng smiled wretchedly, "There is nothing interesting about ordinary women bickering and arguing. But when the empress dowager fights with the concubine, it's something to watch. It's not boring at all."

"You are truly a gossip master," Shangguan Jing rolled her eyes at Old Man Feng, "No wonder there are so many gossips! Why don't you tell me first, do you know Li Langzhong from the Ministry of Criminal Justice?"

"What?" Old Man Feng looked at Shangguanjing with a clear face: "Feel like you have been tricked by Li Chongyuan? Want to make amends?"

"Yes!" Shangguan Jing nodded generously: "Tell me first, how much do you know about him, and then I will tell you what Jing Heng and I think."

"I really know this person a little bit." Old man Feng nodded with a smile: "Remember what I told you? I used to be a tutor for your mother's cousin in the former Cheng'en Gong Mansion."

"I know." Shangguan Jing nodded: "The one who almost became the queen, unfortunately died early. But I thought about it later, maybe it was her luck that she was relieved earlier! She entered the palace and became a queen. Empress, you have to live the life of Empress Chen, marrying such a man, this life is not much better, every day is suffering."

"For her, maybe it's luck." Old man Feng replied: "But it's not the case for the former Duke Cheng'en. Duke Cheng'en is not a hereditary duke, but a title conferred by the late emperor on the Privy Council officer whom he trusted. , At that time, Duke Cheng’en’s mansion was really famous, the late emperor himself made an appointment for the emperor, who was still the crown prince, and Miss Li’s family, but it’s a pity that Miss Li died early, so he made an appointment for the daughter of the Chen family.”

"The Privy Council?" Shangguan Jing was slightly taken aback: "The former emperor set up the Privy Council?"

"Of course you are too young to know." Old man Feng replied: "The Privy Council directly serves the emperor and has great power. It is a pity that Mr. Li, who is extremely capable, also died early. He controlled the Privy Council and was a check and balance with the three princes. After his death, the young Lin Taiwei was promoted from the Ministry of War and became a famous and powerful Taiwei in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Together with Su Wenduan and the prime minister at that time, he divided up the Privy Council. The new emperor ascended the throne Afterwards, the Privy Council, which existed in name only, was disbanded, and the current court-centered structure was formed. Otherwise, why do you think the emperor is so afraid of Lin Taiwei."

"Did Prime Minister Chen participate in it?" Shangguan Jing asked.

"Otherwise, how could the daughter of the Chen family become the queen." Old man Feng sneered: "The Chen family at that time had a different stand than the current Chen family. They were a staunch royal prince party. It can only be said that times have changed, and they have been suppressed by the emperor for many years. The Lin family, the current one is completely different from the Chen family."

"It's all for political interests," Shangguan Jing sneered: "The position is a joke. The Su family and the Lin family are currently the staunch crown prince party, but in fact, after the new emperor ascended the throne, the structure of the court and China was reorganized, so they can take advantage of it." It's an opportunity to share the benefits!"

"That's right." Old man Feng nodded: "When the emperor ascended the throne, this kind of thing happened once. The Chen family, the Lin family, and the Su family are the three most powerful families. The ones who are divided up are your mother's natal family, Cheng En." Gongfu. Your mother was only Cheng Engong's niece back then, and your father's official position was not high, so she was able to marry into the Shangguan Mansion as the eldest daughter-in-law, which shows the status of Cheng Engong in the court."

"But what does it have to do with Li Langzhong?" Shangguan's family asked again: "I remember I heard my mother mention that although his surname is Li, he is not of the same clan as Duke Cheng'en."

"That's right, they are not of the same clan." Old man Feng nodded: "Your mother's family's family is in Yongning, and Li Langzhong is from the Li family of Guizhou, which is not the same family as the Li family of Yongning. The Li family of Guizhou is in Guizhou The local area is regarded as a powerful family, but the influence in Beijing is far inferior to that of Yongning Li. But Mr. Li is a smart person, after the imperial examination, the first thing he did was to go to Cheng Engong's mansion to get married."

If it weren't for Old Man Feng, a gossip expert, Shangguan Jing would not have known that there were so many twists and turns between Li Chongyuan's father and Mrs. Wu Dinghou's natal family.

According to old man Feng, Li Langzhong is very good at being a man and has great ambitions. He often visits Cheng'en Gong's mansion on the grounds that he has the same surname as a family. His strong support.

Originally, the Li family of Yongning and the Li family of Guizhou could join forces to develop in the court, but although this Li Langzhong had great ambitions, he was an extremely short-sighted snob. After the death of Duke Cheng En, the Li family of Yongning gradually declined in the court. He gradually drifted away from Cheng'en Gong's mansion, and had less contact with each other.

The new emperor ascended the throne, and the forces in the court and China were reorganized. Not only did he fail to help protect the power of the Yongning Li family, but he participated in it, stepping on the Yongning Li family who had been kind to him. In the position of Zhaoyin, he also sent his daughter to the palace and became one of the nine concubines.

He is the governor of Gyeonggi, and he has many dealings with almost all the aristocratic families in Beijing. Before Li Chongyuan committed the crime, this Li Langzhong was proud of himself.It's a pity that the feng shui took turns. After Li Chongyuan's accident, Li Langzhong was like Cheng'en Gong's mansion back then.

 ——Here is the dividing line of Li Chongyuan’s father——
  Of course Li Langzhong is not a good bird, he is like a legendary official, he will flatter him when he needs it, and his butt will immediately fall back when he doesn't need it.

  In fact, Mrs. Wu Dinghou's natal family was very happy to see Mr. Li's misfortune.However, out of interest considerations, Marquis Wu Ding and his wife would not refuse to win over Li Langzhong.

  As Xiao Jingjing said, positions are a joke.
