Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

Although Liu Jin's death was said to have strong pressure from the civil society, in fact, it was the Queen Mother's will that really made Zhengde decide to kill him.

In this historical time and space, Empress Dowager Zhang listened to the government behind a curtain for a year, and her political prestige was so high that Zhengde had no way to resist.In other words, he was a filial child, and he couldn't resist.

Zhengde is a strong monarch, he does things unscrupulously, and does not consider the consequences and the feelings of ministers.However, his only weakness is the word filial piety.

But after killing Liu Jin, Zhengde complained slightly to his mother in his heart, and he went to the palace less frequently in the past few months.

Seeing that the emperor was somewhat reluctant to meet the queen mother, Zhang Yong persuaded: "Long live, His Highness Taikang has also entered the palace today. Ordinary people's homes, parents and children can have three meals a day together. Our Tianjia There are many rules, but it is not easy for a family to have a meal together. The queen mother said that it is rare for everyone to be together, so it is natural to reunite."

"The little girl Taikang has entered the palace?" Zhengde has always liked this girl, and the tricky and eccentric style of the girl suits his appetite, so he immediately laughed: "Has this little girl been a concubine recently, why do you want to come into the palace? "

It is no secret in the capital that Taikang often sent his subordinates to beat up his son-in-law, Gu Run. Zhang Yong couldn't help but smile: "No more beatings, the son-in-law has already worshiped a monk and became a lay disciple. He recites Buddha all day long, but Don't go out to mess around. His Highness is relieved, how could he ask someone to teach him a lesson again?"

"Hey, it's interesting to believe in Buddha." Zhengde said with a tut: "Such a coquettish son-in-law was actually subdued by Taikang. I really admire this royal girl! Such a strange woman, I can't see her." .Go, go into the palace."

Listening to Lord Long Live talking about Taikang and his son-in-law's sex, everyone wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, they all felt uncomfortable.

Zhang Yong: "Long live, please."

"Long Live Lord, let's drive!" A little eunuch shouted in a long voice.

A group of people left in a mighty manner. After walking for a long time, they entered the imperial city and arrived at the gate of the forbidden center.

Since Qian Ning was promoted to the Commander of Jinyiwei, he has never had the opportunity to meet the Empress Dowager Zhang and Princess Taikang. He has been famous for the power of the Empress Dowager and the energy of His Highness Taikang, so he wants to follow him into the palace. , See if I can find a chance to please.

Just behind Zhengde, wanting to go in together.

But as soon as he moved, Zhang Yong took a step to block him, and said in a low voice, "Isn't it inappropriate for Commander Qian to go over during the Great Inner Confinement?"

Qian Ning's new commander of Jinyiwei was just an ordinary head of the emperor's bodyguard before, and his power was not yet established. Seeing Zhang Yong's expression that seemed to be a half-smile, he suddenly felt suffocated, and said in a low voice: "I am the bodyguard of the emperor. To guard by the side of Long Live God."

Zhang Yong said indifferently: "The palace has its own rules. Commander Qian has only been an official for a few days, so he knows if he doesn't know. Of course, you can go in if you want to, but you have to cleanse yourself first."

Zhang Yong was very disdainful of this newly promoted dignitary: this is just a fool who only knows how to flatter, but he won the favor of Long Live God with his good archery skills.You just became a high-ranking official, you don't know what to do, you just want to curry favor with the Empress Dowager, are you worthy?

The little eunuchs around Zhang Yong secretly laughed.

Qian Ning's face flushed instantly, and his eyes were full of resentment.

Zhengde: "Zhang Yong, follow me, I have something to ask you."

"Yes, Long Live!"

Zhang Yong dropped Qian Ning in three steps and followed in two steps, and followed Zhengde respectfully.

At the same time, he waved to the eunuchs behind him.

Everyone understood and fell far behind.

After entering the palace, Zhengde looked preoccupied, did not speak, and walked slowly in front.

Zhang Yong didn't dare to ask, so he lowered his head and walked behind slowly.

I don't know how long I walked, but I saw that the queen mother's bedroom was about to arrive.

Zhengde stopped suddenly, turned his head to Zhang Yong, and scolded his mother: "You slave, you bastard, why don't you talk, why don't you talk?"

Then he kicked over, hitting Zhang Yong's heart.

Zhengde's strength was so great that Zhang Yong felt so painful that he couldn't breathe, and a hot blood rushed to his throat.

But how did he spit out the blood? He could only endure the sharp pain and knelt down on the ground with a plop. His back was already drenched in cold sweat because of the pain.

"Say, quickly?"

Emperor Zhengde's eyes were about to burn.

Zhang Yong swallowed the mouthful of blood with great difficulty, and said in a trembling voice, "Long Live Lord, what do you want this servant to say?"

The relationship between Emperor Zhengde and Liu Jin is naturally clear to Zhang Yong, and Liu Jin's death has a lot to do with Zhang Yong.In the past few months, he has been worrying about the emperor's revenge. This thought has been lingering in his heart for many days, and it is almost driving him crazy.

Hearing Zhengde's question this time, Zhang Yong was so shocked that he lost his mind.

"What a slave, still pretending to be stupid?" Zhengde sneered: "Don't you often visit Su Mu, tell me, what is Su Mu doing now?"

When Zhengde asked Su Mu, Zhang Yong didn't understand what the emperor wanted to know. In fact, under Zhengde's instruction, Qian Ning had also sent Jin Yiwei to monitor Su Mu in the past few months.It's a pity that Su Mu is a wise man, how can Qian Ning see Su Mu's reality.

What's more, Qian Ning has only been a commander for a few days, and he can't command the people of Jinyiwei.

Today, Jinyi's pro-military yamen is full of people from Su Mu's father-in-law Hu Shun.Since Liu Jin killed Mou Bin, and Su Mu took care of Liu Jin, all the people in Mou Bin's department had joined Hu Shun's sect, and now Qian Ning was just a display in Jinyiwei.

Since they are all Hu Shun's people, it is impossible for Jin Yiwei to have any unfavorable news about Su Mu reach the emperor's ears.

In Liu Jin's case, if it wasn't for Su Mu, Liu Jin might not have died.

Liu Jin is not dead, as the first accuser, Zhang Yong must die.

Therefore, in a sense, Su Mu is Zhang Yong's savior.

After Su Mu was dispatched to the Ministry of War, Zhang Yong often went to visit this old friend, so he was very clear about his situation.

He also thought about how to make this old friend come back again, but unfortunately, Emperor Zhengde and Su Mu had such a bad relationship, Zhang Yong scratched his head for a long time, but he couldn't think of any way.

Even if he wanted to help, he had to wait for Su Mu and Lord Long Live to restore their relationship.

Hearing Emperor Zhengde's question about Su Mu today, Zhang Yong's heart was moved: As an official who has been ignored by his superiors, or has faded out of the political arena, he is afraid that he will be forgotten by others. If this is the case, then there is no possibility of recovery up.Now, the emperor asked about this matter, which showed that Su Mu still had a place in the mind of Long Live Lord.As long as His Majesty has not forgotten Su Mu, there will be a solution.

He replied carefully: "Long Live Lord, Su Mu didn't do much in the military hall. There were not many people in that place all year round. As for the express delivery in the army, they usually go to the post station. Su Mu goes there on time every day. At noon, I will leave work in the afternoon and go home by myself, but I can't see anything unusual."

"Who told you to say this?" Zhengde interrupted Zhang Yong fiercely: "I ask you what he is doing, it is impossible for Su Mu to sit in a daze in the hall as soon as he is on duty, right?"

Zhang Yong: "Long Live Lord asked this question, and the servant remembered something. The servant went to the Huitong Hall a while ago and saw Su Mu. After all, the servant and Su Mu are both old friends of the Long Live Lord Long Qian, and they have a good personal relationship. There are also daily contacts. When I went to the Huitong Hall, I found that Su Mu had borrowed many files from the Secretary's Pavilion."

"Many files, what are they?" Zhengde asked with a frown.

Zhang Yong: "It's just a map of Shanxi and some military books and war strategies. The slaves are also surprised. They asked Su Mu what they were doing with these things. Su Mu replied that Shanshan and Shaanxi are the first line of defense. In recent years, the Tatars have become powerful. The little prince has unified all the Tatar ministries, and his power has expanded, which has become a major problem, and there may be changes in the future. It is also good to pay more attention to it."

Having said that, Zhang Yong carefully glanced at Emperor Zhengde.

"Shanxi Yutu, Tatar, he is a small ambassador, can he manage it?" Zhengde snorted: "Could it be possible that he still wants to lead troops to fight, and it will never be his turn."

Seeing that the emperor's complexion was not good, Zhang Yong hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Su Mu has a wide range of hobbies, especially miscellaneous studies. Maybe it's just for fun. When he was in the East Palace, he just made a game of war. Come on, servant girl thinks it's very interesting?"

"It's true." Zhengde's face became better: "Apart from this, what else does he play?"

Zhang Yong: "Su Mu is a Hanlin, a scholar. He just travels around mountains and rivers, sings poems with friends and so on. By the way, Su Mu seems to be fascinated by gold and stone recently."

"Golden stone?"

Zhang Yong: "Yes, isn't Su Mu rich? He has recently spent a lot of money on things, especially porcelain and books from the Song Dynasty. Master Wang Zhi has a pot from an official kiln of the Song Dynasty in his home. Su Mu asked to buy it in the past. Master Wang refused to do it. He proposed to exchange things, but Master Wang was not willing. But Su Mu refused to give up. Seeing Tian went to his house to chat, which made Wang Jia very annoyed. In the end, he really asked Su Mu to give up. I got it, and it didn't cost me a penny."

Speaking of this, Zhang Yong couldn't help laughing: "Master Wang had his [-]th birthday on the [-]th of last month, isn't it? Its wild taste. Su Mu ran to the door directly and read a poem in front of all the guests. The poem was very good, Master Wang Dayue, after finishing the work, he gave the basin to Su Mu. This poem, I still remember it A few words."

Zhang Yong cleared his throat, and read: "The dawn of spring at the head of Baihe Village, the fragrance and mist are misty, and the flowers are good. Eight old men with pale hair, the flowers are pouring wine before the flowers. When laughing and talking about the old man learning to speak, follow up..."

"Enough!" Zhengde cut off Zhang Yong's words with a yell, and said with a livid face, "Su Mu, the co-official ambassador, is still showing his taste. If I send him to Guangdong and Guangxi, will he also write" Eat [-] lychees a day, always be a Lingnan native'? He really thinks he is the rebirth of Dongpo, but I am not Song Shenzong. The dignified champion, a Hanlin editor, and my first confidant of Long Qianshi He is an ambassador, but it doesn’t matter if he is an ambassador, he still has taste.”

Zhengde roared: "Doesn't he blame me, doesn't he want to be a high-ranking official, doesn't he know to ask me?"
