Chapter 6 Arguments of the Kyoto Coup 2
The horse was still running, rattling along the secluded avenue.
The interior of the car is warm and moist, with candle shadows flickering.
Shen Yike poured tea for Song Yan, lowered his eyes and said, "That man is Lin Yujiao, the only son of Marquis Zhiyuan."
Song Yanqing withdrew his gaze and looked at him, not knowing what he was thinking, so he only responded softly.
Shen continued: "Now that His Majesty is willing to promote some noble sons from poor families, all the families in Kyoto have also restrained themselves a lot."
"For example, Gu Chengye, the only son of the Gu family who was investigated and exiled two years ago, was shot in the head. He was later secured by General Chu with a marriage contract, and now he is fighting with General Chu in the northern border. some achievements."
Song Yanqing raised his eyes, rubbed the cup wall with his fingertips, looked at Shen Yike, and said to himself: "Engagement?"
Shen Yike lowered his eyes and smiled, and added: "The Chu family is weak, so it is naturally a marriage contract with Princess Ruchuan..."
After Song Yan listened, he drank hot tea, his eyes were dark and bright, unable to see clearly the sadness and joy of his thoughts, he just nodded slightly, as if waiting for him to continue talking.
"There is also Shang Qi, Shang Musi, the seventh eldest in the family. Her father is one of the richest businessmen in the capital, mainly engaged in mining business. Although she is a female, she has a business style. The team went south and north, and rarely returned to Beijing."
"The things I'm talking about... are all friends of the princess. I know that you have personally seen most of the famous stickers and records of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. It's just that the situation in the capital is treacherous and the contacts are complicated. If you don't know the overall situation well, you may not be able to act."
"You can speak up if you have something to say."
Shen Yike waved his sleeves, and said in a helpless voice: "Forget it! I am asking you on behalf of Huashu. Only one person is missing... However, you always have your own ideas, I don't care about anything, Huashu you just prevaricate, and everyone is just waiting to clean you up."
"As you know, the Metropolitan Procuratorate is now mostly transferred from the Dali Temple of the Criminal Ministry, and some of them are selected in recent years. Although there are some urgent and difficult matters, you occasionally come here once or twice in person, but you should show up more often, so that everyone I don’t even know Mr. Du Yushi..."
"It's better not to come to Kyoto."
"In the past, it was due to the status of a heavenly official, but now that the dust has settled, there will be no more heavenly officials in the world, you..."
Shen Yike cast a sympathetic look. In the past, due to his status as a heavenly official, it was difficult to show his face, so he had to hide. Now with the help of the emperor, the destruction of the witch clan made him safe. Alas, I am used to hiding, poor baby .
Song Yanqing leaned back halfway, with the tails of his eyes flying up, his chin slightly raised, turning his eyes away in disdain, he closed his mouth tightly without saying a word, and only let out a cold snort.
?
Shen Yike's face twitched...
"I'm thinking too much, it's because you think I'm long-winded..."

The moon surrounds the branches, and the white gauze brushes the red wall.
Chu Shou walked quickly on the Hongqiao with the inner officer, stepping on the solid wood, making a sound of squeaking.
Chu Shou lowered his body and rubbed his kneecaps, trying his best to keep up with his steps, limping and turning, his figure was a little unstable.
After a few quick steps, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, stomped his feet, shook the gauze sleeve robe, and simply got angry: "I said... the little internal officer, me!"
Chu Shou pointed at himself indignantly.
I!The day before yesterday, I went all the way north to Cangjia City. I got up before the chicken woke up in the morning to prepare for the sacrifice, and I rode the carriage for another day. My head was about to explode, and my heels were flat. Are you in a hurry to reincarnate after walking so fast?
The little internal official turned his head profusely with sweat, his face was pale, and his eyes were full of eagerness. Chu Shou swallowed some words when he watched this scene.
"My lord, what are your orders?"
Chu Shou said with a sneer: "Nothing, nothing, lead the way."
On the opposite Hongqiao, there were two people walking, one of them was hot-eyed, although they were far apart, he saw them at a glance, and said pleasantly: "Master Xu, look at the people walking on that corridor, do they look like...my Ming Qi's?" Little Princess?"
The person who spoke was Wei Chou, Minister of Dali Temple, fifty and eight years old, of medium build, always greeted people with a smile, and was decisive in situations, with a ruthless style and a humane smile.
The one who was replaced by Mr. Xu was Minister of the Ministry of Punishment-the stern and selfless Mr. Xu Chun, who is nearly sixty years old, still hale and hearty, with bright eyes, still upright and magnanimous, he is an unchanging upright man.
Master Xu stroked his beard, turned his head to look, and said, "Princess? Look at that green dress, it should be."
"Is this princess returning to Beijing by order? If not, then I have to ask."
Xu Chunru shook his head and smiled and said: "The princess has made up his mind since he was a child, so he is sure of everything. Brother, don't fall into the same pit twice."
After hearing this, Wei Chou raised his head and laughed loudly, "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, thank you for your reminder, Mr. Xu. The younger generation is full of talents, we two old people should stay away."
Xu Chunru stroked his goatee, and replied: "Even Zaifu kept his breath shut and didn't ask, where is it our turn."
Wei Thou smiled slyly, then turned his head to look at the covered bridge opposite, pretending to be mysterious: "Really? I can't see it."
After a while, Chu Shou quickly walked towards him, stepped forward to salute respectfully, and said in a deep voice, "I have met Master Xu, and I have seen Teacher."
The two of them put their hands behind their backs and bowed their heads lightly, Wei Chiu said earnestly: "Well, thanks to you still remembering me as a teacher, the old man will tell you a few more words..."
Wei Chip raised his finger and pointed to the back, and continued: "The front is a troublesome place, we both want to avoid it, and you, don't look at those people who are angry, and don't do anything with them. It looks like forming a party for personal gain. Things like that, go home as soon as you finish talking with your empress."
Chu Shou replied with a low eyebrow and pleasing eyes: "How can it be, the general and the prime minister are sitting at home, and it's not my turn to talk about this kind of thing, teacher."
Wei Chip pursed his lips and nodded approvingly: "Okay, it's good that you have a clear mind."
What Chu Shou feared the most in her life was top figures such as teachers, husbands, erudites, and masters. When she saw them, she would lower her eyebrows and feel uncomfortable. Logically speaking, she shouldn't be, but she really couldn't control herself. ...

After getting off the Hongqiao Bridge and passing through the Yuehua Gate, a long outer road runs through the north and south, all gray and white bricks and stones are laid out, with red walls, green tiles and yellow glass standing, which is more and more clear under the moonlight.
In the middle of the aisle, there was a row of ministers dressed in official uniforms kneeling, about twelve or three, the leader kneeling straight, and the rest kneeling on the ground.
Wei Yucheng, the commander of the imperial guards, caught a group of imperial guards and circled them inside and out, where they were in a stalemate.
Chu Shou passed by, and couldn't help frowning when he saw this scene. The foreign ministers were not allowed to step into the harem without an edict. When did the rules in the palace become decorations?
Wei Yucheng made eye contact with Chu Shou, as if sensing her displeasure, he nodded and lowered his eyebrows as a signal.
Li Shen was the head of the admonishing officials, and a few scattered officials from the Ministry of Rites risked their lives to break into the Forbidden Palace, just to ask the noble concubine to make a decision as soon as possible, and quickly help the crown prince to act as an agent of the government before the Queen Mother returns to the palace...
Gee.
Seeing them, Chu Shou couldn't help shaking his head, crossed the threshold with his hands behind his back, and entered Funing Hall.
The stubborn and persistent ministers began to commotion and whispered.
Li Shen's expression was particularly dignified.
Three months ago, he bumped his head against the Golden Luan Hall, threatening to die, and begged His Majesty to abolish the sacrificial rites that were predominated by the witch race, eliminate the rituals and funerals, clean the eyes and ears of the people, and bring great luck to the Ming Dynasty.
The witch clan was destroyed in an instant.
Such behavior, although he won the reputation of risking his life for the country and the people, but this is the end of Liangzi.
After being glanced at by Chu Shou, he swallowed involuntarily, swayed twice, and heard commotion on the side.
"Princess? Princess Rukawa?"
"Princess Ruchuan, the famous little overlord of Chang'an Street!"
"Is it the princess who stripped Lord Zhao's clothes before?"
"Isn't it true that you are not allowed to enter Beijing?"
"Hmph, what are you afraid of? There are no witch clans in this world anymore, and she relies on power no more than before."
"What Master Wang said is true. I'm afraid that Youzhou will not be able to survive, so I have come here for refuge."
"Yeah yeah…"
……
The dim candlelight is flickering, and the silhouette of the person on the incense couch is outlined through the beaded curtain, and the smoke from the copper stove rises like a cloud of sorrow on the beauty's forehead.
Everyone knows that His Majesty loves the first wife of the Rong family, and successively the Rong family is gentle and virtuous, and kind, but it is a pity that heaven is jealous of the beautiful woman, and after giving birth to the crown prince for more than a month, he died of wind and cold and exhausted.
In the same year, His Majesty's Concubine Rong, the saintess of Younan of the Fuwu clan, was the noble concubine and the noble concubine Yuan Jiahe co-led the Sixth Palace. So far, no middle palace has been established.
Concubine Rong is still young, with creamy skin, soft figure, bright eyes and white teeth, red lips and white teeth, black hair, willow-leaf eyebrows, eyes like the moon in the clouds, the noble concubine likes bright red, loves poppies, and His Majesty loves the noble concubine.
Concubine Rong begged His Majesty to go to the Houshan Racecourse seven days ago, but it did not happen that His Majesty accidentally fell off the horse and fell into a coma. The Concubine blamed herself for being with her all night.
It's like lying on your side with your forehead supported at this time, like a poppy bending your waist.
The maid led Chu Shou into the house in small steps. When the bead curtain was gently lifted, Concubine Rong immediately raised her eyes, and a tear rolled down her thin face. , as if he was about to faint in the next second.
"A Chu, you are here."
Chu Shou took advantage of the opportunity to sit on the chair farthest from her, and the maid served fragrant tea, not brewed tea leaves, but all kinds of flower petals, full of fragrance.
"I haven't seen you for many years. The empress looks a lot thinner. I don't know why you called me here?"
Concubine Rong folded her hands twisting the veil, put them lightly on her knees, and said, "Your Majesty suddenly became ill, and the whole capital is in panic, and I really can't sleep or eat well..."
Chu Shou didn't want to listen to some polite words that he hadn't seen for a long time, and now the two of them knew the situation in Beijing and China, so he interrupted her, and said: "Your Majesty suddenly became ill, and the position in the middle palace has been held for a long time. Kongxuan, Jia and the imperial concubine believe in Buddhism, and have never been entangled by common affairs. Don't talk about the capital, the only person who can talk about this whole Dayan at this time is you, the imperial concubine, and the empress dowager is eager to return to Beijing. Dongfeng, alas, I can't blame those ministers for being anxious..."
Chu Shou stopped to take a sip of the fragrant tea, took it forward and paused, jokingly said, "You shouldn't be sick at this time."
After hearing this, Concubine Rong sat upright again: "My palace is guarding His Majesty's side day and night, and I have no intention of dealing with other things. Then Su Ting'an and the old ministers sent a letter to the Queen Mother who is far away in Hanshan Stone Path without authorization, and asked the Queen Mother to come back and preside over the matter." The overall situation, I'm afraid, at this time the Empress Dowager already knew about it, and was about to leave for the capital. The former Empress Rong's family pressed on every step of the way, asking me to help the crown prince to the throne, but Your Highness is only five years old, how can I take on this important task? If you don’t make choices every day, those people outside the door will not leave the palace for a day, and the noise is really annoying, so I simply let them into the palace and let His Majesty’s people see how rude they are.”
Chu Shou didn't answer, and said in a circle: "It is true that we should have made plans earlier. Now that there are endless disturbances in the frontier, and His Majesty is sick, the neighboring small countries will only become more rampant, which may cause war."
Concubine Rong sat a little more straight, her slender neck was straight, showing a bit of stubbornness, her right hand rested on the table, and her left hand held a handkerchief to brush her robes, she lowered her eyes and said: "There is no need to talk about this." , I have something to say, you have been communicating with His Majesty these days, you can return to Beijing, it should be His Majesty issued an edict, what kind of secret order did you get when you returned to Beijing, Chu?"
Chu Shou lay back, relaxed, and said casually: "The correspondence is only to discuss the affairs of the heavenly officials. The decline of the Wu clan and the restoration of Youzhou, such a big concession, can't get me back to Beijing? Besides, if your majesty has the power of prophecy , how can you let yourself fall, but give me some tricks?"
As soon as she talked about the falling horse, Concubine Rong started to sob again, wiping her tears and said: "That's right, it's appropriate not to go to the racecourse, and it won't be like this."
"However, if His Majesty is in trouble, I will guard the country for His Majesty, and I will never send it back to the Queen Mother. Your Majesty has come a long way, and I cannot let the Zhao family's world be ruined in my hands."
Chu Shou lowered his eyes and thought for a while, and said: "With the support of the Rong family, why are you still hesitating? His Royal Highness is justified, and as long as your mother speaks, you can break the Queen Mother's way."
"The Su family has intentions, and the Rong family is not unintentional. Since the death of the previous queen, the position of the middle palace has been vacant. When the Wu family was still there, the uncle of the Rong family obstructed His Majesty's establishment of the palace as the queen. Now I want to Use Your Highness to ascend to a high position..."
Concubine Rong said, her nails got into her flesh, there is no shortage of people in this palace who follow the trend and see the wind, once the witch clan is destroyed, there are not many people to comfort, but those who come to ridicule and ridicule have stepped on the threshold.
When His Majesty is in good health, she feels that with His Majesty's only grace, even if her mother clan is destroyed and there is no support behind her, it is nothing. As long as His Majesty is in power for one day, she will not suffer another day of grievances , Be obedient and be your majesty's caged bird, and enjoy endless wealth.
But now... as expected, the world is unpredictable.
Chu Shou saw that the imperial concubine seemed to be distracted, her eyes were fixed on the front, and she didn't know what she was thinking about.
"His Royal Highness is the flesh and blood of the former Empress Rong. Just for this point, it is understandable for Uncle Guo to want to compete with the Queen Mother. It's just that His Highness is still young, so he really shouldn't be involved in this struggle."
Concubine Rong came back to her senses, but her eyes were still empty and blank. Looking at the smoke rising from the copper furnace in front of her, she waved the silk handkerchief in her hand embarrassingly, and continued: "But the witch clan is destroyed, and now the palace is a tiger in Pingyang, and people are everywhere. Criticism, if you can't protect yourself, how can you protect Duan'er."
There were voices coming from outside again, one after another, it seemed that those ministers gathered their strength again and continued to attack.
After hearing this, Chu Shou raised his eyebrows, drank the last sip of hot tea, put it lightly on the table, got up and bowed, and said: "Now your Majesty is treated by King Zhongshan, and you will wake up soon if you think about it. Your Majesty and Your Majesty have been in love for many years. , I must understand what His Majesty is thinking, and asking Your Majesty to make up your mind for His Majesty, it will be a comforting thing when His Majesty wakes up."
His Majesty established the crown prince earlier, so naturally he wanted the crown prince to take over the administration of his father.
Now Concubine Rong is not sure about it... This matter is really tricky, Chu Shou said haha, even if the concubine wanted to take over the government, she came from an unknown source, and she was called into the palace just to find a reason, and she was thinking outside the box It is necessary to lead Chu Shou to say the words "It is better for the imperial concubine to act as the agent of the government" so that it will be logical for her to become famous, and this is what the ministers outside the door are worried about. After all, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the queen mother who is on the road It's not that it makes people so anxious, it's just that someone wants to be the second queen mother.
Concubine Rong supported her forehead and waved her hands, but she didn't have the energy to say a word.
After getting up, the maid closed the beaded curtain for Chu Shou, Chu Shou sighed softly, turned to leave, suddenly remembered something, turned around and said: "Oh, by the way, if I remember correctly, three days later it will be the Empress Qianqiu Banquet .”
Concubine Rong rubbed her forehead without raising her eyes, "Your Majesty is seriously ill, it's really inappropriate..."
Concubine Rong was taken aback for a moment, then she understood, she paused and said: "Well, there will be a banquet in three days, Princess don't forget."
Chu Shou nodded, took a meaningful look, turned around and nodded to the maid who drew up the curtain for her to express her gratitude, and the maid immediately lowered her head and became more respectful.
Not long after Chu Shou left, Concubine Rong walked out a female official named Juyi, who raised her hand to help Concubine rub her temples and said softly, "Your Majesty, what does the Princess mean?"
The noble concubine closed her eyes, holding a small incense burner in her hand, the smoke was lingering, she snorted coldly and said: "It's just that she was sent out of the capital, I thought she would grow up, why did she become timid, and thought she was a smart girl?" people……"
"Then this Qianqiu Banquet..."
"Do it, how can you not do it, Your Majesty has been planning for this palace for a long time, you can't let your majesty's painstaking efforts go to waste, and let those talking nonsense see how this palace can support this important task."
"Yes, servant girl, let me go on."
After finishing speaking, Concubine Rong stood up softly, and ordered: "Get ready for the flower bath, I have to freshen up well today, I have been tired for so many days, and I am quite haggard."
Juyi bowed and slowly backed out.

Shen Yike poured tea for Song Yan, lowered his eyes and said, "That man is Lin Yujiao, the only son of Marquis Zhiyuan."
Song Yanqing withdrew his gaze and looked at him, not knowing what he was thinking, so he only responded softly.

Song Yanqing raised his eyes, rubbed the cup wall with his fingertips, looked at Shen Yike, and said to himself: "Engagement?"
Shen Yike lowered his eyes and smiled, and added: "The Chu family is weak, so it is naturally a marriage contract with Princess Ruchuan..."
After Song Yan listened, he drank hot tea, his eyes were dark and bright, unable to see clearly the sadness and joy of his thoughts, he just nodded slightly, as if waiting for him to continue talking.
"There is also Shang Qi, Shang Musi, the seventh eldest in the family. Her father is one of the richest businessmen in the capital, mainly engaged in mining business. Although she is a female, she has a business style. The team went south and north, and rarely returned to Beijing."

On the opposite Hongqiao, there were two people walking, one of them was hot-eyed, although they were far apart, he saw them at a glance, and said pleasantly: "Master Xu, look at the people walking on that corridor, do they look like...my Ming Qi's?" Little Princess?"

The overall situation, I'm afraid, at this time the Empress Dowager already knew about it, and was about to leave for the capital. The former Empress Rong's family pressed on every step of the way, asking me to help the crown prince to the throne, but Your Highness is only five years old, how can I take on this important task? If you don’t make choices every day, those people outside the door will not leave the palace for a day, and the noise is really annoying, so I simply let them into the palace and let His Majesty’s people see how rude they are.”
Chu Shou didn't answer, and said in a circle: "It is true that we should have made plans earlier. Now that there are endless disturbances in the frontier, and His Majesty is sick, the neighboring small countries will only become more rampant, which may cause war."
Concubine Rong sat a little more straight, her slender neck was straight, showing a bit of stubbornness, her right hand rested on the table, and her left hand held a handkerchief to brush her robes, she lowered her eyes and said: "There is no need to talk about this." , I have something to say, you have been communicating with His Majesty these days, you can return to Beijing, it should be His Majesty issued an edict, what kind of secret order did you get when you returned to Beijing, Chu?"
Chu Shou lay back, relaxed, and said casually: "The correspondence is only to discuss the affairs of the heavenly officials. The decline of the Wu clan and the restoration of Youzhou, such a big concession, can't get me back to Beijing? Besides, if your majesty has the power of prophecy , how can you let yourself fall, but give me some tricks?"
As soon as she talked about the falling horse, Concubine Rong started to sob again, wiping her tears and said: "That's right, it's appropriate not to go to the racecourse, and it won't be like this."
"However, if His Majesty is in trouble, I will guard the country for His Majesty, and I will never send it back to the Queen Mother. Your Majesty has come a long way, and I cannot let the Zhao family's world be ruined in my hands."
Chu Shou lowered his eyes and thought for a while, and said: "With the support of the Rong family, why are you still hesitating? His Royal Highness is justified, and as long as your mother speaks, you can break the Queen Mother's way."
"The Su family has intentions, and the Rong family is not unintentional. Since the death of the previous queen, the position of the middle palace has been vacant. When the Wu family was still there, the uncle of the Rong family obstructed His Majesty's establishment of the palace as the queen. Now I want to Use Your Highness to ascend to a high position..."
Concubine Rong said, her nails got into her flesh, there is no shortage of people in this palace who follow the trend and see the wind, once the witch clan is destroyed, there are not many people to comfort, but those who come to ridicule and ridicule have stepped on the threshold.
When His Majesty is in good health, she feels that with His Majesty's only grace, even if her mother clan is destroyed and there is no support behind her, it is nothing. As long as His Majesty is in power for one day, she will not suffer another day of grievances , Be obedient and be your majesty's caged bird, and enjoy endless wealth.
But now... as expected, the world is unpredictable.
Chu Shou saw that the imperial concubine seemed to be distracted, her eyes were fixed on the front, and she didn't know what she was thinking about.
"His Royal Highness is the flesh and blood of the former Empress Rong. Just for this point, it is understandable for Uncle Guo to want to compete with the Queen Mother. It's just that His Highness is still young, so he really shouldn't be involved in this struggle."
Concubine Rong came back to her senses, but her eyes were still empty and blank. Looking at the smoke rising from the copper furnace in front of her, she waved the silk handkerchief in her hand embarrassingly, and continued: "But the witch clan is destroyed, and now the palace is a tiger in Pingyang, and people are everywhere. Criticism, if you can't protect yourself, how can you protect Duan'er."
There were voices coming from outside again, one after another, it seemed that those ministers gathered their strength again and continued to attack.
After hearing this, Chu Shou raised his eyebrows, drank the last sip of hot tea, put it lightly on the table, got up and bowed, and said: "Now your Majesty is treated by King Zhongshan, and you will wake up soon if you think about it. Your Majesty and Your Majesty have been in love for many years. , I must understand what His Majesty is thinking, and asking Your Majesty to make up your mind for His Majesty, it will be a comforting thing when His Majesty wakes up."
His Majesty established the crown prince earlier, so naturally he wanted the crown prince to take over the administration of his father.
Now Concubine Rong is not sure about it... This matter is really tricky, Chu Shou said haha, even if the concubine wanted to take over the government, she came from an unknown source, and she was called into the palace just to find a reason, and she was thinking outside the box It is necessary to lead Chu Shou to say the words "It is better for the imperial concubine to act as the agent of the government" so that it will be logical for her to become famous, and this is what the ministers outside the door are worried about. After all, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the queen mother who is on the road It's not that it makes people so anxious, it's just that someone wants to be the second queen mother.
Concubine Rong supported her forehead and waved her hands, but she didn't have the energy to say a word.
After getting up, the maid closed the beaded curtain for Chu Shou, Chu Shou sighed softly, turned to leave, suddenly remembered something, turned around and said: "Oh, by the way, if I remember correctly, three days later it will be the Empress Qianqiu Banquet .”
Concubine Rong rubbed her forehead without raising her eyes, "Your Majesty is seriously ill, it's really inappropriate..."
Concubine Rong was taken aback for a moment, then she understood, she paused and said: "Well, there will be a banquet in three days, Princess don't forget."
Chu Shou nodded, took a meaningful look, turned around and nodded to the maid who drew up the curtain for her to express her gratitude, and the maid immediately lowered her head and became more respectful.
Not long after Chu Shou left, Concubine Rong walked out a female official named Juyi, who raised her hand to help Concubine rub her temples and said softly, "Your Majesty, what does the Princess mean?"
The noble concubine closed her eyes, holding a small incense burner in her hand, the smoke was lingering, she snorted coldly and said: "It's just that she was sent out of the capital, I thought she would grow up, why did she become timid, and thought she was a smart girl?" people……"
"Then this Qianqiu Banquet..."
"Do it, how can you not do it, Your Majesty has been planning for this palace for a long time, you can't let your majesty's painstaking efforts go to waste, and let those talking nonsense see how this palace can support this important task."
"Yes, servant girl, let me go on."
After finishing speaking, Concubine Rong stood up softly, and ordered: "Get ready for the flower bath, I have to freshen up well today, I have been tired for so many days, and I am quite haggard."
Juyi bowed and slowly backed out.
