Jinyi Town Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 530 Dirty Work
Emperor Wanli asked Zhang Juzheng for his opinion, and Zhang Juzheng could no longer keep silent.He said: "I think what Wang Guoguang said is very true. There are old rules to follow from provinces with good harvests to distribute surplus grain to provinces with frequent famines."

Emperor Wanli said, "No!"

Zhang Juzheng cupped his hands and said: "Dare to ask the emperor, why is it not allowed?"

Emperor Wanli argued: "It is said that the sky in June is like a baby's face, and it will change as soon as it changes. Who can guarantee that Henan will not rain in the next few days? Who can guarantee that Henan will not have a bumper harvest this autumn? If there is a bumper harvest in Henan this autumn, wouldn’t it be a waste of money and people to spend manpower and material resources in Shandong to transport 200 million dans of summer grain?!”

Emperor Wanli was a very smart person in his bones.Although the reason he gave was sophistry, it also made some sense.Zhang Juzheng didn't know how to refute him for a while.

If there are teachers in the world who are refuted by students, which teacher will be happy?
Zhang Juzheng is on fire!He winked at Wang Guoguang, Shen Shixing, Wang Chonggu, and Wang Xijue.

These four people stood up immediately, kowtowed and said: "Please allow the emperor!"

The four of them took the lead, all civil servants and military generals fell to their knees in a clatter, and shouted in unison: "Please give me your permission!"

This time, it was Emperor Wanli's turn to be dumbfounded!He had heard about the Great Discussion of Rituals in the early years of Jiajing.The emperor's grandfather was alone, fighting the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty alone.He admired the courage and courage of Grandpa Huang.But when this kind of thing really happened to him, he felt withdrawn.

Emperor Wanli said: "Get up for me."

None of the ministers got up.In Chengtian Hall, the ministers shouted in unison for the second time: "Please allow the emperor!"

Emperor Wanli felt desperate!He stood up from the dragon chair and said angrily, "Okay! I will follow your orders! Do as Wang Guoguang said!"

After finishing speaking, he left Chengtian Palace angrily.Only the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were left looking at each other.

He Liuxin in the military officer class said: Not good!Your majesty has torn face with Mr. Zhang today!

Yongshou Palace.

As soon as Emperor Wanli returned to the palace, he dropped three teacups and two vases.

Zhang Jing stared at the broken porcelain pieces all over the floor.He said: "The emperor calm down. Why don't the servants call the queen? Let the queen enlighten the emperor, maybe the emperor will be able to think about it."

Emperor Wanli shook his head: "Forget it! She will persuade me to listen to Zhang Juzheng in everything!"

Zhang Jing rolled his eyes: "Your Majesty, how about I find a few court ladies to drink with the Emperor to relieve boredom?"

Emperor Wanli did not speak, and acquiesced to Zhang Jing's suggestion.

Although Emperor Wanli was married, he did not choose a concubine.In the harem, only the queen and queen can sleep in bed now.

Ever since Emperor Wanli performed Zhou Gong's ceremony with the queen, he knew the beauty of the relationship between men and women.He had long wanted to pamper women other than the king and queen.It's just that the eyes of Empress Dowager Li and Feng Bao are all over the harem.Emperor Wanli has never dared to pamper those court ladies who make him salivate.

Zhang Jing chose three old court ladies who were old and know how to behave, and entered the main hall of Yongshou Palace.

Among the three court ladies, one is Li Meilan, the other is Zhang Huixiu, and the other is Yu Yanqiu.All three of them have spring eyebrows and charming eyes.It's like three ripe apricots, or three juicy peaches.

Zhang Jing sent the three of them into the hall, then asked all the young eunuchs to leave the hall and closed the palace gate.

Emperor Wanli first let them drink two jugs of wine with them.

These three women are all in their twenties, and they are very scheming.They all want the emperor to take off his pants and favor him.If she becomes pregnant with a dragon seed, wouldn't she be able to reach the sky in one step?Therefore, the three teased the young Emperor Wanli in every possible way.

All wine is a color medium. The 17-year-old Wanli Emperor is just at the age of youth.How could he stand the teasing of three beautiful young ladies taking turns?
Finally, Emperor Wanli couldn't bear it anymore!He actually pampered three court ladies in turn in the main hall of Yongshou Palace in broad daylight!Feeling refreshed, he couldn't even remember who the dragon seed was sown in the end.

into the night.The room for the supervision of ceremonies.

Zhang Jing walked into the Prison of Rites in a hurry.

Feng Bao sat on the chair with a sullen face.

Zhang Jing asked: "Godfather, are you looking for me?"

Without saying a word, Feng Bao stood up and slapped Zhang Jing.

Zhang Jing covered his face and put on an aggrieved expression: "Godfather, what is wrong with my son, just beat and scold him to calm down. Don't let your anger break your body."

Feng Bao pointed to Zhang Jing's nose: "You did a good job! Let me ask you, did you let three old maids like vixen go to sleep with the emperor...drinking?!"

As the inner minister, Feng Bao naturally has countless eyeliners in the palace.How could such a thing be hidden from his eyes?
Zhang Jing quickly knelt down at Feng Bao's feet, crying bitterly: "Godfather. The emperor asked his son to find a court lady to accompany him to drink. The son can't resist the order! If the son violates the emperor's will, the emperor will just find a reason. It can make my son beyond redemption! Huh, huh."

Zhang Jing's bitter cry made Feng Bao's anger towards him half-extinguished.Feng Bao thought to himself: Zhang Jing is telling the truth.The emperor wants to sleep with the maid, how can he, a slave, stop it?
Feng Bao said: "That's all! Remember, if this kind of thing happens in the future, you should report it to me first!"

After finishing speaking, Feng Bao left the Supervisor of Rituals, went straight to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and reported the matter directly to Empress Dowager Li.

Empress Dowager Li was furious when she heard the words: "The emperor is so ignorant? What if those three maids are pregnant with the dragon seed. In the future, the eldest son of the emperor will not be a descendant but a concubine. The queen will give birth to a second son who is a descendant. When the time comes, the emperor will establish a prince. The eldest or the first? Feng Bao, what are the names of the three maids?"

Feng Bao replied: "The Queen Mother, one is Li Meilan, the other is Zhang Huixiu, and the other is Yu Yanqiu."

Empress Dowager Li said meaningfully: "The Ai family heard that there is a word in the Jinyiwei called Secret Cai?"

Feng Bao was stunned: "What does the Empress Dowager mean?"

Empress Dowager Li said: "Tomorrow, in your capacity as the supervisor of ceremonies, you will order these three women to go out of the palace to buy silk for the concubines... Send He Liu to do this."

Secretly killing three unarmed women is a dirty job that hurts Yin and morality.Empress Dowager Li has developed a habit over the years.Whenever she needs someone to do this kind of dirty work, the first person she thinks of is He Liu.
