Chapter 180 The Emperor's Hidden Illness【Request】

As if feeling Zhu Houzhao's gaze, Yang Tinghe's figure became more and more humble.

Zhu Houzhao stepped forward slowly and helped Yang Tinghe up and said: "I still remember that my father once told me that Yang Qing's family has the talent of a prime minister. I believe in my father's eyes, so I specially approved Yang Qing to join the cabinet. In the past few years Fortunately, there are two seasoned and prudent Qing families in the court, and I have always believed in the two Qing families."

Hearing Zhu Houzhao's words, Yang Tinghe had tears in his eyes, and tremblingly said: "It is the minister who has failed His Majesty and His Majesty's grace. As the chief minister said, there are Fei Hong, Liu Zhong, Liang Chu and others in the court. Those who have ulterior motives are all the fault of my cabinet ministers' negligence."

After talking deeply for a week, his face was full of persistence and he said: "Every time I think about this, I feel deeply ashamed of the late emperor and my majesty. I beg your majesty to allow the old minister to resign."

It can be seen that Yang Tinghe is determined to resign, and Zhu Houzhao wants to stay with Yang Tinghe and Li Dongyang for a period of time in order to stabilize the court situation and get through the current turbulent period.

For a while, one wanted to keep someone, and the other insisted on resigning.

Obviously compared to Li Dongyang's good-natured temperament, Yang Tinghe's character is much more resolute, and he made it clear that he didn't want to procrastinate any longer.

The eyes of all the officials naturally fell on Zhu Houzhao and Yang Tinghe.

A look of reluctance appeared in the eyes of many officials.

Since Emperor Zhengde succeeded to the throne, among the elders of the pavilion, Li Dongyang is recognized as a good old man. Apart from Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe is the one who is most recognized by all officials.

It can be said that if there are no accidents, after Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe is almost certain to be the next chief minister of the cabinet.

Now that Yang Tinghe wants to resign, this makes Baiguan panic. At some point, Yang Tinghe seems to have become the core of Baiguan. Li Dongyang is always there, but he still doesn't feel anything.

However, Yang Tinghe's resignation at this time made many officials feel as if they lacked support.

Even some officials who were already very close to Yang Tinghe looked at Yang Tinghe with anxiety in their eyes.

Seeing the stalemate between the emperor and Yang Tinghe, Xiong Wenguang, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, gritted his teeth and took a step forward to salute the emperor, then cupped his hands at Yang Tinghe and said, "Mr. Yang Ge, have you forgotten what you said to us back then? Scholars of my generation read the books of sages and do the things of sages. They should assist the emperor, educate the people, and be famous in history and be praised by all ages. Heavy, stay!"

"Please, Mr. Ge, put His Majesty as the most important thing, and Daming Jiangshan Sheji as the most important thing, stay!"

Immediately dozens of officials saluted Yang Tinghe together.

Li Huan on the side looked at Yang Tinghe with interest, his eyes swept over those officials, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Zhu Houzhao didn't seem to notice this, but looked at Yang Tinghe eagerly.

At this time Li Dongyang said to Yang Tinghe: "Jie Fu, Your Majesty's kindness is great, and the current situation is difficult, so you and I will assist your Majesty for the next journey."

Yang Tinghe looked at Li Dongyang, then at all the officials, finally heaved a long sigh, and bowed to the emperor: "Your Majesty is very kind, this old minister is willing to do his best, and he will repay His Majesty after his death!"

Zhu Houzhao supported Yang Tinghe, nodded slightly and said, "I need two elders to preside over important court affairs, so I can feel at ease."

Zhu Houzhao changed his voice and said, "Nowadays there are many government affairs, but there are only two elders left in the cabinet. I want to call more capable ministers into the cabinet. I don't know what the two elders think?"

Li Dongyang looked calm, and a strange color flashed in the depths of Yang Tinghe's eyes, but they all bowed to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty is holy."

Zhu Houzhao showed a bit of a smile on his face, turned his eyes to Baiguan and said slowly: "What do you think?"

Even Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe didn't have any objections. Baiguan, who had been terrified by the scene of Jinyiwei's arrest just now, looked at the smile on Zhu Houzhao's face, but felt hairy in his heart. How dare he have any objections.

With a concentrated expression, Zhu Houzhao said to a figure among the ranks of officials: "Wang Yangming is a great talent for managing the country, and he is loyal and loyal. He is specially awarded the title of Bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion, and he will serve as an assistant to the government and lead the Minister of the Ministry of War."

During the turmoil last night, Wang Yangming responded calmly, and even led the army to break up for the sake of the emperor. It can be said that he was brave and resourceful, which is remarkable. More importantly, Zhu Houzhao saw Wang Yangming's loyalty, although Zhu Houzhao said at the time It is necessary to add Wang Yangming as Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Officials and a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion.

It's just that at the time, it was just a matter of saying, and there was no time to make it known to the world, so at this moment, Wang Yangming's official position is still the supervisory censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Among the hundreds of officials present, there are many people who are deeper than Wang Yangming.

Therefore, no one thought that the emperor would simply pull Wang Yangming, a censor who was significantly inferior in terms of qualifications and reputation, to enter the cabinet.

This is no longer as simple as being promoted to three ranks. In the eyes of all civil and military officials, this is a step up to the sky, directly reaching the pinnacle of civil servants.

Even Wang Yangming, who was standing in the ranks of civil servants, was taken aback for a moment when he heard Zhu Houzhao's reward for him.

To be honest, although Wang Yangming also understands that with his relationship with Li Huan's rescue, unless it is his own death, otherwise, his future entry into the cabinet is a certainty.

But in the final analysis, his qualifications are quite inferior. He only needs to stay in the position of Zuo Shilang in the Ministry of Officials for a few years, and then he will be promoted to the chief officer of the Ministry.

Therefore, from Wang Yangming's point of view, in another three to five years, he can consider joining the cabinet, but he never thought that the emperor would suddenly push him to join the cabinet at this time.

An official who was on good terms with Wang Yangming, looking at Wang Yangming in a daze at the moment, couldn't help but whispered in an envious tone: "Brother Yangming, His Majesty has called your name, so hurry up and thank him."

Wang Yangming came back to his senses, took a deep breath, took a step forward, bowed to Zhu Houzhao, and said, "I have limited ability and lack of experience in governance. I am afraid that I will fail the emperor's favor. Please think again, Your Majesty!"

Zhu Hou took care of Wang Yangming's neither arrogant nor impetuous appearance, and his heart became more and more satisfied. He smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, if you don't have enough experience, you can learn. What I value is the loyalty of Wang Qing's family!"

As he said that, Zhu Houzhao glanced at Li Huan, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly: "Besides, I hope that Wang Qing's family will join the cabinet. Li Qing strongly recommended it to me. Li Qing's family said that you have great talents in governing the country. Any supervisory censor is really a waste of talent and learning."

Wang Yangming couldn't help looking at Li Huan, Li Huan was also taken aback for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Zhu Houzhao to bring this matter to himself.

It is true that he recommended Wang Yangming to the emperor, but it is not as exaggerated as the emperor said.

However, Li Huan somewhat understood the emperor's intentions, and it was obvious that he wanted to sell Wang Yangming, the future elder, a favor for him.

So Li Huan smiled slightly at Wang Yangming.

Wang Yangming glanced at Li Huan gratefully, regardless of whether he could join the cabinet or not, Li Huan actually valued and respected him so much, and even recommended him to the emperor.

Not to mention anything else, this value alone is enough to make Wang Yangming feel grateful.

Zhu Houzhao saw Wang Yangming's reaction in his eyes, and felt a little proud in his heart.

In Zhu Houzhao's view, Wang Yang will only be in his 20s next year. If there are no accidents, according to the age of those cabinet elders, after Wang Yangming enters the cabinet, as long as he does not make any mistakes, he can work for at least [-] years.

With Wang Yangming in the cabinet who has a good relationship with Li Huan, he will cooperate with Li Huan in the future. It must be very harmonious.

Looking across all the officials, Zhu Houzhao's eyes showed a bit of imperial majesty and said slowly: "What do you think? Are Wang Qing's family eligible to join the cabinet?"

That's a cabinet elder. The highest pursuit of a civil servant is also the pinnacle of his official career. There are only four or five places if he is full of money.

There are tens of thousands of officials in the world, and hundreds of officials from the DPRK and China. Countless people are staring at the cabinet seats. On weekdays, in order to win the number of cabinet seats, hundreds of officials fight openly and secretly, almost fighting for U-turn.

If this were the case in the past, it would be impossible for the emperor to simply pull a minister into the cabinet with a single sentence.

Unless it is what everyone expects, otherwise, the impeachment of hundreds of officials alone is enough to drown the emperor.

Power struggles, power struggles, power is beneficial, look at the elders of Liu Jian and Xie Qian, after joining the cabinet, which family is not full of food, and the family interests are crazy.

At this moment, Zhu Houzhao proposed to let Wang Yangming enter the cabinet. It can be said that it is the best time. It can be said that it is the easiest time to pass by taking advantage of Jinyiwei just now to shock the minds of all officials. If you miss it, it will not be so good again. Here's the chance.

Benefits touch people's hearts. It is said that some businessmen are not afraid of death for the sake of benefits. In fact, this sentence does not make any difference when it is applied to officials.

At the beginning of the founding of the country, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang strictly ordered the corrupt to peel off the real grass in order to fight corruption, but those officials still ignored Zhu Yuanzhang's butcher's knife that might fall at any time for the immediate benefit.

Those who can be officials are all smart people. Don't smart people seek good luck and avoid evil?Why can't they hold back the greed in their hearts one by one, and they are finally discovered and taken to peel the real grass.

Although it was said that Jin Yiwei's selection of people just now had indeed shocked many people and made many officials panic, but when Zhu Houzhao threw out his high position as a cabinet minister, many of the officials' eyes were red.

The panic in my heart dissipated in an instant, and only the seat of the elder was left in my eyes.

Fight, must fight.

If it is done, it means the rise of the family, and Yu Yin will last forever. He Wang Yangming has qualifications but no qualifications, and experience but no experience. Why can he join the cabinet.

The Son of Heaven is so stupid that he puts such a great talent aside and trusts a treacherous villain like Li Huan.

Those who can walk with a treacherous villain like Li Huan are not treacherous ministers, and Wang Yangming must not be allowed to join the cabinet.

Such thoughts flashed through many people's minds. Some people were indeed terrified, but some people just forgot the pain after their scars healed. They thought that the big cleansing just now had passed, and the next step was the serious business.

Seeing Dali Temple Minister Cui Long's face flushed, with fanaticism in his eyes, he took a step forward and gave a big gift to the emperor, bowed down beside Wang Yangming, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I think it is impossible!"

Cui Long spoke suddenly, which naturally attracted the attention of many people. Many officials looked at Cui Long who walked out in astonishment, obviously surprised by Cui Long's boldness.

Isn't Cui Long afraid of the emperor's wrath?

Just now the Son of Heaven can say that Wang Yangming was recommended by Li Huan. Everyone knows that Wang Yangming and Li Huan are both imperial envoys, and they traveled to Fujian. The relationship between the two is obviously extraordinary.

To say that Li Huan supported Wang Yangming in the cabinet, no one was surprised at all.

Just now some officials thought of this, so even though they really wanted to stand up and oppose, they didn't move because they were afraid of Li Huan.

Now Cui Long took the initiative to stand up and express his opposition, which gave many officials hope.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as there is the first one, then they will naturally not be afraid of the next one.

After all, as long as this kind of thing starts, even if the emperor is dissatisfied and Li Huan bears grudges, he will only grudge No.1, right?

For a while, everyone stared at Cui Long, but Cui Long didn't seem to notice their gazes.

As an existence of ups and downs in the officialdom for many years, Cui Long's experience is quite rich. He has stayed in all six yamen at least once. If you only look at the experience, the qualifications, experience and even experience are definitely enough.

However, luck and connections are a bit short. To enter the cabinet, not only ability but also connections and luck are very important.

Many officials obviously have the ability to enter the cabinet, but they are blocked outside the threshold of the cabinet. In the final analysis, they are not popular in the court and lack the support of officials at the bottom. One can imagine the difficulty of entering the cabinet.

Just like Jiao Fang and Liu Yu, they can be trusted by Liu Jin as their confidantes, so there is no problem with their ability, but why there is no hope of entering the cabinet for so many years.

In the final analysis, Jiao Fang and Liu Yu have some problems with their personalities. They are not very popular in the court, and they are almost doomed not to be in the cabinet for the rest of their lives.

Therefore, Jiao Fang and Liu Yu chose to vote for Liu Jin without hesitation in order to enter the cabinet under the condition that Liu Jin promised to make great profits.

What about eunuchs, if they can help them enter the cabinet, soar into the sky, and fulfill their dream of being civil servants, it doesn't matter if they end up being infamous as eunuchs.

Many officials can clearly see these potential rules.

Just like Cui Long, he is also normal. Couldn't he see that the first person who stands out is very likely to be hated by Li Huanji, but he still chooses to stand up.

You must know that sometimes if you want to get something, you have to give something. If you don't work hard, it will be like this for a lifetime.Maybe with a little effort, you can change your life and change your destiny.

Besides, it is true that being the first one has its disadvantages, but it also has its advantages. At least it can impress the emperor, right?

What if you get the favor of the emperor?

Even if he couldn't, he would still be disgusted by Wang Yangming, a junior, why he couldn't get into the cabinet after working hard all his life, and he, Wang Yangming, was valued by the emperor just because he hugged Li Huan's thigh, and wanted to simply pull him into the cabinet Woolen cloth.

Looking at Cui Long, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help frowning. He thought that Wang Yangming could be successfully pushed into the cabinet, but he didn't expect such an accident to happen.

Glancing at Cui Long faintly, Zhu Houzhao said slowly: "Cui Aiqing, since you oppose Wang Aiqing's entry into the cabinet, why do you object?"

Seeing that the emperor didn't directly reprimand him, Cui Long couldn't help letting go of his heart, suppressing the excitement in his heart, and bowed to the emperor: "Return to your majesty, I look at Wang Yangming's resume, it's just that the local officials are inexperienced. , I don’t have much experience in the Six Departments of the North Korean Central Committee. This is no longer as simple as lack of experience, but completely inexperienced. The elder Ge shoulders the burden of the country, so how can he hand it over to someone who has no political experience at all? You know If a wrong decision is made, it is very likely to bring great harm to the country and the people."

Cui Long's words were convincing and well-founded, and many officials around him nodded after hearing this.

Zhu Houzhao looked at Cui Long and said with a slight smile: "Wang Aiqing was able to manage the huge civil affairs in Fujian in an orderly manner in the absence of high-level officials in Fujian. This is not ability, but what is it? As for the experience, I also said just now, If you don’t have experience, you can slowly accumulate, isn’t there still Yang Gelao and Li Shoufu in the cabinet?”

Cui Long shook his head and said: "Your Majesty's words are wrong. Anyway, Wang Yangming's qualifications and experience are not enough to convince all officials. If His Majesty orders him to join the cabinet, the ministers will first refuse to accept it."

Frowning, Zhu Houzhao looked at Cui Long and said, "In your opinion, who is qualified to enter the cabinet?"

Cui Long's eyes lit up, he straightened his expression, looked at Zhu Houzhao and said: "I have been an official for more than [-] years, whether it is a local county magistrate, a magistrate, or an official of the six ministries, I have done it all, no matter the experience or qualifications are enough. To join the cabinet, so I recommend myself, willing to serve His Majesty."

Many people knew what Cui Long was up to when Cui Long spoke, but when they really heard Cui Long boasting so brazenly, and even recommended himself to the emperor, many people immediately showed mocking and disdainful expressions.

Even Zhu Houzhao was taken aback by Cui Long's self-recommendation. This guy really doesn't think he's too embarrassing, he really dares to say anything.

But before the Son of Heaven opened his mouth, an official next to him said with a sarcasm: "If Master Cui said so, isn't this official more qualified and experienced than you?"

As soon as this person opened his mouth, many people immediately looked at him.

The person who opened the mouth was Yuan Kaitai, one of the six ministers, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, who can be a minister, which one has not survived for many years and has a rich experience.

As Yuan Kaitai said, he is more suitable than Cui Long. After all, Cui Long is the Minister of Dali Temple, while Yuan Kaitai is the Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

They are also chief officials, and Yuan Kaitai speaks with much more confidence than Cui Longna.

As for Yuan Kaitai's opening, many officials among the hundred officials immediately expressed their support, which is the highlight of the network.

After hearing Yuan Kaitai's words, Cui Long's expression changed slightly, and he said with a sneer, "Yuan Shangshu's words are wrong..."

Seeing that Cui Long was about to quarrel with Yuan Kaitai, Zhu Houzhao suddenly snorted coldly and said: "Are you the emperor or I am the emperor? I am just asking for your opinions, not for you to teach me what to do made?"

As he said that, Zhu Houzhao glanced coldly at the officials and said, "From today onwards, Wang Yangming will be granted the title of Grand Bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion, and he will join the cabinet to lead the Ministry of Military Affairs..."

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was about to act arbitrarily, Cui Long showed disappointment on his face, and couldn't help saying: "If Your Majesty insists on doing this, the ministers will not accept it, and all officials will not accept it."

Zhu Houzhao's cold eyes fell on Cui Long, and Cui Long took a deep breath, slowly took off his official hat with both hands, and respectfully said to Zhu Houzhao: "If your majesty insists on acting arbitrarily and does not listen to what I say, I would like to resign !"

Seeing Cui Long take off his official hat, with an expression of dissatisfaction, and even wanting to threaten himself with resignation, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help laughing out of breath.

Is he so good-tempered that these officials will play the trick of forcing the palace every now and then.

Being stared at by Zhu Houzhao's cold eyes, Cui Long felt uneasy. It would be strange to say that he was not nervous.

He is a person with a strong desire for officialdom, if he wants to resign from office, it is better to kill him.But he is also a dignified minister of Dali Temple and an important minister in the court.

He didn't believe that the emperor dared to force him to resign in front of so many civil and military officials.

Li Huan, who had been watching with cold eyes all this time, couldn't help but burst out laughing at this moment. Li Huan's smile caused many people to look at Li Huan in astonishment and confusion.

Even the Son of Heaven looked at Li Huan with a puzzled expression.

Li Huan bowed to Zhu Houzhao and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I just watched Cui Long and Master Cui's words and actions. It's really too funny. I lost my composure for a while, but I couldn't help it."

Zhu Hou looked at Li Huan, while Li Huan looked at Cui Long and said, "Master Cui, don't you think your actions are too funny? You oppose His Majesty Jianba Wang Yangming's entry into the cabinet. Isn't the real purpose of wanting to join the cabinet yourself? Why, now that His Majesty disagrees, are you going to use resignation to force His Majesty?"

Many officials looked at Cui Long with weird eyes. Some people did see through Cui Long's mind and purpose, but some officials subconsciously thought that Cui Long was really refuting the emperor.

After hearing Li Huan's words, Cui Long felt ashamed and angry when he felt the eyes of all the officials looking at him.

If he hadn't been afraid of Li Huan, he would have jumped up and pointed at Li Huan and yelled at him.

Zhu Houzhao swung his sleeves violently, and snorted coldly at Cui Long: "Since Cui Aiqing wants to resign, it's not easy for me to ignore your intention, then I will accept your request."

Hearing this, Cui Long couldn't help being stunned. Didn't he just put on a gesture of resignation to force the emperor? Normally, shouldn't the emperor apologize to him, and then take the initiative to admit his mistake and let him stay as an important minister?This is a good story of a monarch and his ministers getting along.

But why didn't the emperor play his cards according to common sense? How could he be allowed to resign.

He really never thought about resigning. Although Dali Siqing is not as good as Ge Lao, he is also an important minister at the level of Jiuqing. Sitting in such a high position has many benefits.

But once he loses his official position, he will suddenly become an insignificant figure like a commoner. What should he do, and what should the family under his protection do?
For a moment Cui Long was dumbfounded, confused, and didn't even know how to react.

Seeing the change in Cui Long's expression, Li Huan sneered with disdain, and said to Cui Long: "Master Cui, oh, no, from now on, you are no longer an official of the court. I don’t know if Master Cui resigned from the position of Minister of Dali Temple as he wished, is he very relaxed?”

That's what he said, but the irony in Li Huan's words couldn't be more clear. Cui Long came back to his senses, and after hearing Li Huan's ridicule, he immediately entered the palace and opened a paint shop on his face. Emotions flashed.

With a sound of wow, Cui Long couldn't help spurting out a mouthful of blood, and even fainted out of anger, but he didn't know whether he fainted because of himself or Li Huan's ridicule.

The officials who saw this scene all around saw that Cui Long had suddenly changed from a majestic Dali Temple minister to an ordinary commoner. For some reason, they felt inexplicably happy in their hearts. At the same time, when they looked at Li Huan , and there was more fear in his eyes.

Li Huan easily pushed Wang Yangming into the cabinet, and with one sentence, he moved the emperor, and the emperor allowed Cui Long to resign.

Although speaking of the situation just now, everyone can see that Cui Long forced the emperor, and the emperor will probably allow Cui Long to resign, but it will definitely not be so straightforward.

It was because of Li Huan's words that Zhu Houzhao made up his mind just now, and he sent Cui Long cleanly.

This kind of influence, if you look at the court, I am afraid that even Liu Jin, the great eunuch who overshadowed the sky and claimed to be the emperor in the past, may not be able to compare with him.

Li Huan glanced faintly at Cui Long who had passed out, and waved at a few Jinyi guards in the distance, and immediately saw those Jinyi guards running over.

I only heard Li Huan say: "Take this person away, and let someone check him to see how he has been an official all these years, whether he is clean and honest, whether he has corrupted the law, and ignored human life."

Several Jin Yiwei lifted Cui Long who had passed out, and immediately said: "I will obey the order of the Commander. We must take out all his old background."

A group of officials listened to Li Huan's words and were stunned.It never occurred to Li Huan to do such an operation.

Previously, there had been a saying that Li Huan was narrow-minded, and that he would take revenge, and that revenge would not take overnight.

Some people didn't care about it, or even sneered at it.

But now seeing how Li Huan treats Cui Long, some officials feel that the rumors are really true.He, Li Huan, is really small-minded, he loves to hold grudges, and he doesn't take revenge overnight.

At first, I thought it would be quite miserable for Cui Long to lose his official position and pass out from anger, but now it seems that offending Li Huan is not just as simple as losing his official position. Or not.

Everyone knows that none of the officials of Ming Dynasty dare to pat their chests and say that they are innocent and as clean as water.

Especially for an important official like Cui Long who has been an official for decades and climbed all the way to the level of Dali Temple Minister, even if he is clean, can he guarantee that his family members are clean?
This is simply unbearable to check, it can almost be said that a check will be accurate, and Cui Long will really be better off than dead if he can't say it.

Even Zhu Houzhao couldn't help giving Li Huan a strange look.

It can only be said that Cui Long provoked Li Huan, and it was really bad luck.

Li Huan paid homage to Zhu Houzhao and said, "Your Majesty, I have overstepped the mark. Please forgive me."

Instead, Zhu Houzhao smiled and said: "Li Qing is right. Officials like Cui Long should check it out. If there is no fault, it's fine. If there is any fault, it must be dealt with strictly."

Li Huan cupped his hands and said, "I would like to obey your majesty's imperial edict!"

As he spoke, Li Huan cast his eyes on Yuan Kaitai, Minister of the Ministry of Industry who spoke out, looked at Yuan Kaitai with a half-smile, and said, "I don't know what Master Yuan thinks of His Majesty's decision?"

Although he said that he was secretly ashamed of Cui Long, but when he saw Cui Long resigning from office to force the emperor, Yuan Kaitai couldn't help but secretly praised Cui Long.

Even Yuan Kaitai wanted to see how the emperor would react to Cui Long's persecution. If the emperor really backed down or comforted Cui Long, then Yuan Kaitai decided to learn from Cui Long later.

What Yuan Kaitai didn't expect was that Li Huan actually stepped in and made the emperor make up his mind to dismiss Cui Long as soon as he opened his mouth.

Even after Cui Long was dismissed from office, Li Huan sneered at him and knocked him out of anger. This didn't resolve his hatred, and he even ordered a thorough investigation of Cui Long.

At this moment, Yuan Kaitai felt a fear in his heart. Fortunately, he was not in a hurry to stand out and be the first one to stand out.

Sure enough, Cui Long, the leader, was out of luck.

Just when Yuan Kaitai was secretly rejoicing, he suddenly heard Li Huan talking to him, and subconsciously looked up at Li Huan.

When he saw Li Huanzheng looking at him with a half-smile, Yuan Kaitai couldn't help but thumped in his heart, and took a step back almost reflexively.

After hearing Li Huan's question clearly, Yuan Kaitai immediately said to the Son of Heaven: "Your Majesty is a sage king, there is no difference in the decision. Wang Yangming entered the cabinet, and my minister Yuan Kaitai has no objection!"

Just now Yuan Kaitai opened his mouth to refute Cui Long, the purpose of which is known to everyone, is to fight for the seat of the old man, but now he changed his words immediately, with an appearance of incomparable support for the emperor's decision, even a fool can see that Yuan Kaitai This was frightened by Cui Long's experience.

He, Yuan Kaitai, was also afraid. If he didn't express his opinion again, he would be remembered by Li Huan, a man who must take revenge. He even doubted whether he would be able to leave the Forbidden City today.

Zhu Houzhao smiled slightly when he heard the words, and nodded slightly at Yuan Kaitai, then turned his eyes to other officials and said, "What about you, Ai Qing? Do you also think that what I have done is the same as Yuan Aiqing?"

All the officials looked at me, I looked at you, and finally couldn't bear the eyes of the emperor, they all bowed respectfully to Zhu Houzhao: "I have no objection."

Zhu Houzhao nodded in satisfaction, looked at Wang Yangming in front of him and said, "Wang Qing's family, what about you?"

Wang Yangming took a deep breath and paid homage to Zhu Houzhao: "My minister, Wang Yangming, I would like to obey His Majesty's imperial edict, and thank you for the emperor's grace!"

After receiving Wang Yangming's gift, Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "I hope that after the Qing family enters the cabinet, they can put state affairs first and work for the well-being of the people of the world. It is not in vain for Li Qing to recommend love to you."

Wang Yangming said respectfully: "I will live up to your Majesty's high expectations."

From the beginning to the end, Li Dongyang and Wang Yangming did not open their mouths. The purpose of the emperor Jianba and Wang Yangming's entry into the cabinet was very simple.

Naturally, they can feel the emperor's dissatisfaction with them. If someone can stabilize the court in a short period of time, they dare to say that the emperor will directly dismiss them as cabinet ministers without them even asking for resignation.

The emperor really wanted to keep them. It was nothing more than the fact that the emperor had no one to use. Instead of using other people, it would be better to use them as veterans, at least to ensure the normal operation of the court.

But the emperor will definitely not indulge them, and promoting Wang Yangming to the cabinet is the emperor's first step.

As for what the emperor will do next, to be honest, Li Dongyang still has some expectations. He doesn't have too many selfish distractions. Li Dongyang's mood is very complicated for the emperor to have such means and ideas. The relief of gradually becoming mature, but also a sense of loss.

Zhu Houzhao walked up the imperial steps slowly, sat on the dragon chair, and said condescendingly: "Is there anything else you can do, Qing?"

A group of officials were frightened by Jin Yiwei's appointment at first, and they were also terrified by what happened to Cui Long. How could they think about discussing matters at this time.

All around are speechless.

But at this moment, Wang Yangming, who had just been promoted by the emperor as a cabinet minister, suddenly took a step forward and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I have an answer."

Zhu Houzhao glanced at Wang Yangming in surprise and said, "Oh, what's the matter with Wang Qing's family?"

Wang Yangming said sternly: "Your Majesty, Marquis Feng Hai of Changxing led the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp into the city yesterday, which almost caused a catastrophe. I implore Your Majesty to send a capable confidant to reorganize the Beijing camp to eliminate future troubles!"

Zhu Houzhao's face turned serious when he heard the words. This day can be said to be a thousand things, and things are coming one after another. A person's energy is really limited. At the level of a country, even the most promising emperor will have omissions.

Just like now, Zhu Houzhao never thought of reorganizing the Beijing camp.

Li Huan once said that Wang Yangming was quite strategic and knowledgeable, and Zhu Houzhao was deeply touched at the moment, and Wang Yangming grasped the most important thing at the moment with a single word.

So Zhu Houzhao is more satisfied and appreciates Wang Yangming.

There was a little smile on the corner of his mouth, looking at Wang Yangming, Zhu Houzhao smiled and said: "What Aiqing said is true, I am aware of the disadvantages of the Beijing camp, but I never thought that one day, it should be the Beijing camp that guards the capital. , dare to start a rebellion, if it is not rectified by the admiral, I am afraid that what happened last night will happen again at some point."

Zhu Hou looked at Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe and the two of them and said, "You two Qing family, what do you think of Wang Qing's proposal?"

Li Dongyang stroked his beard and nodded: "The old minister thinks what Mr. Wang said is true. The Beijing camp must be reorganized, otherwise the harm will be serious."

Yang Tinghe said concisely: "I have no objection!"

Zhu Houzhao turned to Wang Yangming and said, "Since it was proposed by Wang Qing's family, according to Qing's family's opinion, who should I appoint as the Minister of Chinese and Military Affairs in the court to supervise the Beijing camp and reorganize the shortcomings of the Beijing camp?"

All of a sudden, many people subconsciously looked towards the direction where the Xungui Group was standing.

Jingying has always been the private land of the Xungui Group, and the only remaining influence of the Xungui Group is in the Jingying.Although it is said that under the suppression of the Ministry of War, the Beijing camp has already been infiltrated by the civil service group like a sieve, but no matter how you say it, that is where Xungui has the last say.

Over the past few decades, the admiral of the Beijing camp has been the British Duke Zhang Mao who is a noble hand.

Although some officials don't know why the person who came to the Grand Court Meeting today is not the British Duke but Zhang Lun, but at this moment the emperor and the cabinet ministers are discussing the reorganization of the Beijing camp. , who is suitable.

An official who didn't know that Zhang Mao was still dead said: "Your Majesty, the British Duke Zhang Mao has always been the admiral of the Beijing Camp. Such a big incident happened in the Beijing Camp. , the crime of lax military governance!"

This is a great opportunity to attack the British government and the Xungui Group. The Xungui Group, which has been in decline, can only rely on huddling together to keep warm.

And its core is the British public Zhang Mao. Although the Xungui Group seems to be indifferent to everything above the court, the civil official group has never relaxed its vigilance and suppression of the Xungui Group.

But whenever there is an opportunity, he will always give the Xungui Group some eye medicine. Obviously, this official has such an idea.

It's just that he obviously didn't know the details. If he had known the news that the British Duke had died, he probably wouldn't have chosen to jump up and attack the British Duke Zhang Mao at this time.

Zhang Lun stared at the official with anger on his face. Although he said that the other party was right, his grandfather was dead. The key is that this official was clearly the one who invited the name, trying to increase his qualifications by attacking and impeaching the British public Zhang Mao. It is the place that makes Zhang Lun angry.

Zhang Lun is not easy to speak, but it does not mean that others are not easy to speak.

Hearing Cheng Guogong Zhu Fu step forward, he snorted coldly and said: "Bold, in order to put down the rebel army last night, the British Duke personally put on armor and went into battle at the age of 70 to kill the enemy. Unfortunately, he sacrificed his life for the country. How can you allow you to tarnish the name behind him."

As soon as Zhu Fu's words came out, all civil and military officials were shocked.

After all, only a very small number of people know about Zhang Mao's death, so too many officials have heard about Zhang Mao, the core figure of the noble group, who has gone through several generations of emperors in the Ming Dynasty, and who is like the magic needle of Dinghai is so silent fell into a rebellion.

Moreover, according to Cheng Guogong Zhu Fu, it seems that Zhang Mao was injured and died when he suppressed the rebellion. In this way, even though the British government was guilty of negligence, they all died in battle. To criticize in dereliction of duty is to offend the British public line to death.

Just looking at the eyes of Zhang Lun staring at the official just now, I know that the official is afraid that he will really end in the future. Even if he is not killed by the British government's connections, his life will come to an end. .

Even if he is an elder, he would not risk offending the British government, the first family of nobles who have retired from the country, to speak for a small official.

That official was obviously not a fool. He wanted to criticize the British Duke Zhang Mao to confuse himself with some qualifications, but he did not expect that the British Duke was already dead. passed out.

Looking at all the officials looking at him like a fool, the official was desperate.

It's fine on weekdays, but the Duke of England is dead, and even Zhu Houzhao is somewhat displeased with the official.

Sighing lightly, Zhu Hou took a look at the officials, and said in a deep voice: "Originally, I wanted to talk about Duke Ying at the end of the court meeting, but since Duke Cheng has already said it, then I will tell you." Everyone, in order to suppress the rebellion last night, the British Duke took the lead and fought first, but was unfortunately shot by the arrows of the rebels, and died of serious injuries."

At this time Zhang Lun was already crying.

Zhu Hou took a look at Zhang Lun and said: "After the death of the British Duke, the title of the British Duke will be inherited by Zhang Lun, and the British Duke will be named Ningyang King, and the Ministry of Rites will send officials to assist the British Duke's funeral. "

Although Zhu Houzhao had said last night that he would posthumously crown the Duke of England as king, but without going through the procedure of public discussion in the court, it was a bit unfair after all.

It's as if the emperor wants to persuade a certain minister to join the cabinet, but he has to persuade all the officials. Only in this way can the minister who joins the cabinet have a righteous name, otherwise, even if he really enters the cabinet, he will He was criticized behind his back and regarded as a lucky minister.

Zhang Lun went forward to bow to the emperor, kowtowed heavily and thanked him: "Minister Zhang Lun, thank you Your Majesty."

Zhu Hou looked at Zhang Lun, and sighed slightly: "Aiqing, let's live in peace."

Because of the official's interruption, the candidate for Admiral Jingying was not finalized. When Zhang Lun withdrew to the Xungui Group, Zhu Houzhao cast his eyes on Wang Yangming and said, "Wang Aiqing, go on and say, do you have a suitable candidate in your heart?" the candidate?"

Wang Yangming nodded and said: "Originally, the old Duke Zhang Mao was the best candidate, but there is no holiday, the old Duke passed away, and no one among the nobles has this ability. Recommend someone!"

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help looking at Wang Yangming curiously after hearing the words, "Oh, I wonder who Aiqing recommends?"

Wang Yangming smiled and said: "This person is none other than Li Huan, Li Dudu who was appointed by His Majesty as the Commander of the Five Armies' Mansion Zuo Dudu!"

Li Huan on the side just followed Wang Yangming's words, thinking about which important official in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty has such qualifications and abilities to sit in the capital camp.

Unexpectedly, Wang Yangming recommended him immediately after opening his mouth.

You must know that Wang Yangming never mentioned this to him, so even Li Huan didn't know that Wang Yangming would recommend him to be the admiral of the Beijing camp and reorganize the 10,000+ army of the Beijing camp.

This errand is extraordinary, if it is not an important minister trusted by the emperor, don't even think about intervening in this matter, after all it involves the power of soldiers and horses.

Even if it's just the reorganization of the Beijing camp, this is an extremely important event. During the reorganization process, people who are close to him can be placed in important positions casually.

Even if the final list has to be reviewed by the emperor, I dare not say if there are too many, there must be no problem in installing a few of my own people.

Why does the Xungui family still have a strong influence in the Beijing camp? In the final analysis, most of the Xungui's children work in the Beijing camp. After several generations of experience, the network of relationships has long been dense, and it is the soft knife of the civil official group that cuts meat a little bit. Infiltration, it is also impossible to completely control the Beijing camp all at once.

The reason why Zhang Mao was able to become the core figure of the Xungui Group was that on the one hand, the British government was the most valued by the Tian family, and on the other hand, it was also because Admiral Zhang Mao had supervised the Beijing camp for many years and was able to insert the younger generations of the Xungui Group into the Beijing camp.

It is conceivable that if Li Huan can admiral the Beijing camp and take charge of the reorganization of the capital camp, among other things, at least the nobles and military officials will definitely have many people who take refuge in Li Huan.

After Wang Yangming's words fell, Yang Tinghe, who had been drooping his eyelids, couldn't help but look up at Wang Yangming, a look of amazement and fear flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Li Dongyang was slightly taken aback, looked at Li Huan, and frowned slightly.

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and his face showed a bit of surprise. The satisfaction and surprise in his heart were beyond words: "Okay, okay, what Wang Aiqing said is true, and I also feel that Li Qing will come to supervise the capital. The matter of Beijing camp couldn't be more suitable."

Li Dongyang sighed softly and said: "Your Majesty, if the Beijing camp has 10,000+ soldiers and horses, if the Beijing camp is to be reorganized, the affairs will inevitably be complicated, and Lord Li will also be admiral of the Jinyiwei Yamen to supervise the case of treason. Is there something wrong with Mr. Li alone?"

Zhu Houzhao was stunned for a moment, and after he realized it, he smiled and said: "In Aiqing's opinion, who among the civil and military men of the dynasty is suitable for this job? If Aiqing can recommend someone for me, it will make people If I am satisfied, then I will entrust this important task to the other party."

Li Dongyang was speechless for a while. Officials who are capable of both civil and military affairs in the court are rare, but not without them. For example, Yang Yiqing, the governor of the three sides, has the ability. The army was handed over to the other side's admiral for rectification. To be honest, even he, the chief minister of the cabinet, would not dare to say it.

So Li Dongyang was stunned for a long time. Under Zhu Houzhao's gaze, he could only shake his head helplessly and said: "Return to Your Majesty, I have no suitable candidates."

It is difficult to choose the candidate for the admiral of the Beijing camp. Only those who have the complete trust of the royal family can have this honor. In the past, it was the British Duke Zhang Mao, but after Zhang Mao passed away, even Zhang Lun, who succeeded the British Duke, did not have the same honor. Qualifications.

Zhu Houzhao glanced at Li Dongyang indifferently and said: "Since there is no candidate for the old man, then I think it is very appropriate for Wang Aiqing to recommend Li Qing."

As he said that, Zhu Houzhao looked at Li Huan with a smile on his face and said, "Li Qing, I want you to be the admiral of the Beijing camp, to rectify it for me, and to take charge of the soldiers and horses of the capital camp. I wonder if Li Qing is willing to share my worries?"

Li Huan took a deep breath, and under the envious and jealous gazes of all civil and military officials, he bowed to the emperor and said: "The minister leads the decree, and is willing to share your majesty's worries."

Zhu Houzhao strode forward, helped Li Huan up, took Li Huan's hand and said: "Okay, okay, I know Li Qing will not let me down."

Speaking of which, Zhu Houzhao took Li Huan's hand, and said in front of all the civil and military personnel: "I specially appointed Li Huan as the governor of the five armies, the commander of the Chinese army, and the title of Taifu, and admiral of the affairs of the capital."

The governor of the Chinese army's governor's mansion and the admiral of the Beijing camp can almost be said to be the No. 1 in the military.This kind of official position appeared in Li Huan, a young man who was only about 20 years old. I dare not say that there is no one before or after, at least it is rare.

No matter how many officials treat Li Huan so favorably to the emperor, they can only be envious and jealous.

Who asked Li Huan to rescue him several times, and was loyal to the emperor. Li Huan deserved this honor.

Li Huan naturally did not hesitate, and directly bowed to the emperor and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Handing over the capital camp to Li Huan, Zhu Houzhao was naturally relieved, but looking at Li Huan's still immature face, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty and said: "It's really hard to love Qing."

Li Huan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is being polite, this is just the duty of a minister, so why bother to talk about it?"

Time passed by, and this grand court meeting was definitely an unforgettable one for all the officials. First, we witnessed dozens of officials being taken down by Jin Yiwei for the crime of treason, and then the chief assistant Li Dongyang and the elder Yang Tinghe resigned. Being retained by the emperor, the emperor Jianba Wang Yangming entered the cabinet, and even the news of the death of the British Duke Zhang Mao, and finally, Li Huan was named Taifu, the governor of the Chinese army and the governor of the capital. Gathering together all of a sudden, the impact on the important ministers is really too great.

On weekdays, if such a big event happens at the Great Court Conference, it may be necessary to argue and discuss for a long time without a result, but today the Great Court Conference has made decisions on so many things in less than half a day. Efficiency is almost unprecedented.

However, for the officials, the feeling was rather bad. It was the emperor and Li Huan, a pair of monarchs and ministers, who cooperated with each other and seriously weakened their rights. During the whole court meeting, they had almost no words right.

It can be said that looking back, today's court meeting and the courtiers are almost led away by the emperor. This is something they have never thought of before. Looking at the emperor and Li Huan now, for some reason, their hearts are heavy .

Zhu Houzhao glanced at Gu Dayong, Gu Dayong took a deep breath, and said sharply: "Play if you have something to do, and leave the court if you have nothing to do!"

The officials bowed silently to the emperor, and watched the emperor Luan drive away under the guard of soldiers and horses.

At this point, the Great Court Meeting ended, and many officials let out a sigh of relief, and exchanged glances with their colleagues, feeling quite reborn as human beings.

Officials in twos and threes slowly left the Forbidden City with deep emotion, and left separately.

However, some officials did not leave in a hurry, but walked towards Li Huan, Wang Yangming and others.

Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe and the two nodded at Li Huan, and then Li Dongyang said: "Lord Li, I hope you will not disappoint His Majesty's trust."

Li Huan cupped his hands solemnly and said: "Master Shoufu is joking, Li knows it well."

As for Yang Tinghe, he smiled and nodded at Li Huan.

After watching them leave, Li Huan's eyes fell on Wang Yangming.

Li Huan cupped his hands to Wang Yangming with a smile and said, "Li Mou thanked Mr. Wang Ge for his recommendation."

Wang Yangming smiled, and Li Huan recommended him to the emperor to join the cabinet, and he reciprocated Li with peaches, and recommended Li Huan to be the admiral of the capital.

Hearing the words at this moment, he shook his head and said: "Lord Li is being too polite. Is there anyone besides your lord who can handle the matter of admiral's capital camp?"

Speaking of which, Wang Yangming said: "I am serving as a minister in the same palace, just to share your majesty's worries."

Li Huan smiled and said: "Well said, I hope you and I will work together to share your majesty's worries."

While Li Huan was talking to Wang Yangming, a group of Xungui Group headed by Zhang Lun walked over.

Zhang Lun, Duke of Cheng, Zhu Fu, Duke of Cheng, and Xu Guangzha, Duke of Ding, bowed their hands to Li Huan and said, "Congratulations to Li, Master Li, congratulations to Li, you are so loved by His Majesty, and you are really envious of others."

Li Huan said with a smile: "The dukes of the state are just joking. You are the ones His Majesty really relies on when you live with the country. Li is just an invitation to heaven, and he was lucky enough to get His Majesty's love. He will not be replaced by your hereditary family." Compared with other countries, how can they be compared."

People in flower sedan chairs carry people. Since Li Huan was ordered to be the admiral of the Beijing camp, he must deal with the soldiers of the Beijing camp next. The people who know the best about the Beijing camp are the noble families with profound background and rooted in the capital camp for hundreds of years. .

If you want to rectify the Beijing camp, you must have to deal with these nobles. Since Zhu Fu and Zhang Lun are so knowledgeable, they took the initiative to come together to make friends with him.

He stretched out his hand and didn't hit the smiling person. Although Li Huan offended the civil official group, although he was not afraid of offending these nobles, he didn't want to really become the enemy of the whole court.

Anyway, if he wants to do something, someone has to wave the flag and shout for help, right?

Naturally, Zhu Fu and the others could feel the goodwill released by Li Huan, and naturally had a good impression of Li Huan.

The people who have always had conflicts with Li Huan are the civil official cliques, and they, as honorable cliques, are also targets of suppression by the civil official cliques.

An enemy's enemy is a friend. From this perspective, Li Huan should be regarded as their friend.

One side deliberately made friends, and the other side also had the same idea, so the two sides soon talked and laughed, and the relationship was extremely harmonious.

After a while, Zhu Fu looked at the time, glanced at Zhang Lun, and sighed softly at Li Huan, "If it wasn't for arranging the affairs of the old Duke, I would definitely go to Tianxiang Tower with Brother Li Huan today. Have a drink."

When Zhu Fu said this, the faces of the nobles were all dark, and the death of Zhang Mao had dealt a great blow to their noble group.

Without Zhang Mao, their Xungui Group is not only worried about the loss of a backbone, but also has no sense of existence above the court.

Otherwise, if the emperor wants to reorganize the military camp this time, if Zhang Mao has not died, it can be said that looking at the civil and military affairs of the court, no one is more qualified than Zhang Mao to take on this important task, even Li Huan, who is trusted by the emperor, will definitely fight for it. But Zhang Mao.

Even many times, the conflicts and disputes within their honorable group, or the suppression from the civil official group, can often be resolved smoothly with Zhang Mao's presence.

Now that Zhang Mao has passed away, the decline of the Xungui Group is almost inevitable. As long as you are not a fool, you will definitely want to find a strong support for your family in the court.

They almost don't think about it in the civil official group. Even if they lean on them, people may not really believe them.

However, Li Huan was deeply favored by the emperor, and he would definitely be in power in the next few decades, but he couldn't be a better candidate.

Hearing this, Li Huan clasped his hands towards Zhang Lun and said, "The death of the old Duke is really a great loss to Ming Dynasty, and the British Duke is mourning."

Zhang Lun took a deep breath, cupped his hands towards Li Huan and said, "Thank you, Mr. Li, for continuing your grandfather's life. After finishing the affairs of grandpa's death, Zhang Lun will invite Mr. Li again, and thank you in person."

Watching all the nobles leave Zhang Lun, Wang Yangming stroked his beard and sighed softly: "There are few outstanding figures among the nobles of the Ming Dynasty. Now that the old Duke Zhang Mao passed away, the future of the noble group may be even more difficult. .”

As he spoke, Wang Yangming's eyes fell on Li Huan, and he looked at Li Huan a little inexplicably.

After glancing at Wang Yangming, Li Huan walked outside and said, "Mr. Yangming, why is he looking at Li like this?"

Wang Yangming chuckled and said, "Master Li should know what Wang means!"

The two of them passed through Fujian, and they can be regarded as life-and-death friends, so naturally there is no taboo when talking together.

Hearing Wang Yangming's words, Li Huan's expression became serious, he looked around, and then said: "Mr. Yangming also said that there are no outstanding figures in the Xungui Group, so even if Li accepts them, it may not be of any help. , but added to the burden, and even wiped their buttocks."

Wang Yangming said with a half-smile: "If that's the case, Mr. Li, you will not fully accept the kindness you showed in front of those nobles just now."

Hearing this, Li Huan took a deep look at Wang Yangming, laughed loudly and said, "I know I can't hide it from you!"

While talking, the two had already walked to the gate of the Forbidden City. At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps and calling behind them.

"Brother Li stay behind, Brother Li stay behind!"

I saw Qiu Ju trotting after him and shouting Li Huan's name from a distance.

Li Huan paused, turned to look at Qiu Ju, and at this moment Wang Yangming smiled at Li Huan and said, "It seems that His Majesty has something to look for Mr. Li, if that's the case, Wang will go ahead."

Li Huan nodded slightly at Wang Yangming when he heard the words.

At this time Qiu Ju walked over quickly, slightly out of breath, looked at Li Huan and said, "It's a good thing Brother Li didn't go out of the palace, otherwise, our family would have to go out of the palace to look for Brother Li."

Li Huan waited until Qiu Ju recovered his breath before he opened his mouth and said, "Brother Qiu, why did you seek me? Could it be that His Majesty has some kind of will?"

Qiu Ju smiled slightly and said: "You guessed right, His Majesty has something to ask for you, follow me to see His Majesty!"

Li Huan couldn't help showing a bit of surprise when he heard the words, and while following Qiu Ju back, he looked at Qiu Ju and said, "I don't know why Your Majesty is looking for me?"

Qiu Ju smiled wryly and shook his head when he heard the words: "If our family knew, we wouldn't hide it from you, Brother Li, but we don't know either."

As he said that, Qiu Ju suddenly raised his brows and said, "By the way, Your Majesty just returned to the harem after the Great Court Meeting. He seemed to have practiced cross-legged for a while, and suddenly asked me to look for Brother Li with a solemn expression."

Li Huan frowned, for a moment he really couldn't figure out why the emperor called him suddenly, but he was not in a hurry, he would know everything naturally when he met the emperor.

Talking and laughing, the two headed towards the harem.
