It was still dark, and like other places in the Forbidden City, the Kunning Palace was brightly lit.

This was originally the residence of the hostess of the Ming Dynasty, the queen's bedroom.

Empress Dowager Cisheng has lived here for 16 years. Today, Emperor Zhengde is getting married. According to regulations, she will move to another palace.However, although Emperor Zhengde was absurd, he was filial to his mother, and he was a man with a bit of evil spirit, so he didn't pay much attention to the system of the court.So he decreed to let Queen Mother Zhang continue to live and live for the rest of her life.

The Ming Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety, and it was difficult for others to say anything.

According to the ancients, after a man gets married, even if he is an adult, he has to bear the responsibility of supporting a family and supporting his wife and children.The emperor's wedding is different from the marriage of ordinary people, and it has a strong political significance.

Once the emperor gets married, it means that he has grown up, and he wants to handle the country's affairs in person. What he needs to support is a huge empire and hundreds of millions of people.

When Emperor Hongzhi was in power, Zhengde was not yet of age, and all affairs of the country were handled by the cabinet.As the empress dowager, Empress Dowager Zhang listened to the government behind the curtain and existed as a symbol of this empire.

In more than a year, this ordinary woman who was unknown in history showed superb political talents, and gradually stabilized an already somewhat chaotic court situation.

Today is the time for the smooth handover to his son, Emperor Zhengde.

Therefore, Empress Dowager Zhang also woke up early, preparing to drive to the Huangji Hall to watch the ceremony as soon as Maoshi arrives.

At the beginning, the Kunning Palace was filled with happiness.

But at this moment, all the people were pale and trembling, fearing that they might say something wrong and cause the Empress Dowager Cisheng to fly into a rage.

There are also eunuchs who communicate constantly, passing on news.

"Report to Empress Dowager Zhang, Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." A eunuch ran into the hall with small steps, and knelt down in front of Empress Dowager Zhang with a common sound, with cold sweat on his forehead.

"What's the matter?" At this moment, Empress Dowager Zhang was already full of anxiety. She stood there with her arms open, and asked the two maids to dress herself in auspicious clothes.Both hands tightly grasped the long cuffs, the knuckles turned white from the exertion: "Is Your Majesty still unwilling to get up?"

Eunuch: "Yes...Your Majesty hasn't gotten up yet..." As he spoke, he was probably in a hurry, his eyes turned red, and tears fell to the ground.

"Nonsense, what day is it today, can it still make you petty?" Empress Dowager Zhang was furious, she swung her sleeve and swept it on the incense burner.

The small copper stove burning sandalwood fell to the ground with a bang, and sparks filled the air.

The matter of Emperor Zhengde's refusal to get up was reported to Kunning Palace within half an hour.His son knew it himself, and Queen Mother Zhang suddenly realized that things might be troublesome.

It would be a big scandal for the royal family if the emperor made such a fuss about a good wedding ceremony.The emperor made such a move, not only did not have any effect, but the ministers suddenly realized that the emperor was actually just a child, and naturally they lost a sense of awe in their hearts.In the future, how will you control the officials?

Seeing that Queen Mother Zhang was trembling with anger, all the people knelt down and put their heads on the ground, not daring to raise their heads again.

Empress Dowager Zhang yelled: "What's the matter with Liu Jin and Zhang Yong, don't you know how to persuade Your Majesty?"

"Wow!" The eunuch who came to report the letter cried loudly: "To the Empress Dowager, Liu Ban and Eunuch Zhang have also persuaded them, and they even knelt on the ground and smashed their heads. But the Lord Long Live... the Lord Long Live... I don't care about it at all, but I got my body into the quilt, and I don't care about it. Long live God is a body of ten thousand gold, how dare we slaves lift the quilt, that is a death penalty!"

"You idiot!" Empress Dowager Zhang was furious: "Let's go to Qianqing Palace."

Just as she was about to leave, she stopped, and murmured: "I can't go, today is the day when the emperor is in charge. Ai's family is a woman's family, how can it be possible to interfere in political affairs, this is against the rules of the palace and the outside court."

"However, if we don't go, we will delay Ji Chen... so what should we do?" Thinking of this, Empress Dowager Zhang couldn't help thinking about it, and she didn't know what to do for a while.

The eunuch who was kneeling on the ground quickly wiped his eyes, knelt and moved forward a few steps, and said in a low voice: "Empress Dowager Merciful, why don't you tell the three elders of the cabinet to come over. They are the emperor's teachers, and the elders Long live will definitely listen to what they say."

"You bastard, what nonsense are you talking about?" Empress Dowager Zhang scolded, "Go tell the three cabinet elders, don't you think it's a big deal? The three cabinet elders know it, and the foreign officials all know it. , where is the majesty of Long Live?"

The eunuch was so frightened that he stretched out his hand and slapped himself again and again: "Your maidservant is foolish, slaveservant deserves to die!"

He also knew that today's matter was too big, and Queen Mother Zhang was really angry.His subordinates did not dare to show mercy, these slaps exhausted all their strength.

In just a few moments, his face was swollen high, with nosebleeds and teeth bleeding.

For a moment, the entire hall was filled with loud "cracking" sounds.

"That's all!" Seeing that the eunuch was really pitiful, Empress Dowager Zhang felt compassionate, and shouted: "Don't you think Ai's family is not annoying enough, stop!"

Only then did the eunuch stop his hands: "This servant deserves to die, this servant deserves to die!"

Empress Dowager Zhang took a deep breath and murmured: "Now there is only one way... to pass Su Mu into the palace. If there is anyone in the world who can persuade the emperor, Su Ziqiao is probably the only one, but... time is running out." , Su Mu got the word of mouth, and rushed from home to Da Nei, it was already too late."

Thinking of this, Queen Mother Zhang rubbed her hands anxiously.

The eunuch kneeling on the ground suddenly said: "The Queen Mother, don't worry, Su Mu is in the palace right now."

"Ah, he's in the palace now?" Empress Dowager Zhang was pleasantly surprised: "What's going on?"

When the eunuch saw that the Empress Dowager was happy, he felt relieved, and quickly said flatteringly, "To the Empress Dowager, His Majesty asked Mr. Lin Senlin to go to the Department of General Affairs the day before yesterday, and asked Wu Shiqi to be the driver and Su Mu to be the assistant driver."

Empress Dowager Zhang: "Okay, you run away immediately and ask Su Mu to persuade the emperor to get up."

When the eunuch was about to get up, Empress Dowager Zhang warned: "Remember, quietly tell Su Mu what Aijia means, so as not to disturb other people."

At this time, another eunuch hurried in and announced loudly: "Queen Mother, Queen Mother, the royal driver of Long Live Lord has set off and is heading for Jianji Hall."

Empress Dowager Zhang was pleasantly surprised: "Isn't the Lord Long Live lying in bed, why are you up?"

The visitor: "Report to the Empress Dowager, Mr. Su... Su Mu persuaded Long Live to get up..." He was terrified while speaking.

"It's good to get up, it's good to get up... What kind of expression do you have, tell me honestly, how did Su Mu make Wan live get up?"

The man knelt down on the ground with a plop, stretched Su Mu's foot into the quilt, and explained clearly the situation of the emperor jumping up from the ice.

Hearing that Su Mu was so rebellious, everyone in the hall turned pale and were stunned.

After a while, everyone shouted and cursed: "Bold Su Mu, what a thief!"

Suddenly, Empress Dowager Zhang giggled, her eyebrows bent into crescent moons: "This sumu...giggle...has a good idea. When it comes to doing things, you don't care about your heart. When it's extraordinary, you should do extraordinary things. This man, giggling ...It's interesting!"

Everyone didn't expect that after Su Muxing's crazy trip, Queen Mother Zhang would still look very happy.

If it were someone else who did this, I'm afraid they would have been taken down long ago and beaten to death with a court stick!

Su Ziqiao was the only one who dared to fight the emperor in the entire capital city or the entire Ming Dynasty.

It can be seen how high Su Mu's status is in the eyes of the emperor and the queen mother.

In the future, I don't know what the situation will be.

The emperor has been in charge since today, the so-called one king and one courtier.In the future, Sumu will definitely be a rising upstart.
