Jinyi Town Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 814 It's time for the show to begin
Imperial Palace, Shude Courtyard.

Concubine Zheng Gui, who is in her 30s, sits in front of a bronze mirror.Zhang Jing stood behind her, combing her hair.

Concubine Zheng said: "Zhang Jing, you are in power now. It's not easy to come to Shude Court to see me."

Zhang Jingdao: "No matter how powerful the servant is, you are still the master of the servant."

Concubine Zheng looked at herself in the bronze mirror: "Oh, women will always grow old. You see, I have crow's feet."

Concubine Zheng was busy fighting with other concubines all day long, so she used her mind a lot, so naturally she grew old quickly.

Hearing this, Zhang Jing wiped away tears: "What are you talking about, the imperial concubine? You are young and upright, so you are old."

Although the eunuch has lost his roots, it is not that he has no feelings for men and women.An ancient sage named Plato in the West said that there is purely spiritual love in this world, which has nothing to do with the body.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?Zhang Jing has served Concubine Zheng for a long time, and deep in his heart he has a subtle love for Concubine Zheng.

Concubine Zheng said: "With your clever mouth, you will make me happy. Young and young? Ten years ago, I was considered young and young. Now? You are just old."

Zhang Jing said: "However, the most favored in the palace today are not those fifteen or sixteen-year-old concubines, but you, the imperial concubine."

What Zhang Jing said was the truth.Emperor Wanli was not very feminine.Only in love with Concubine Zheng.Emperor Wanli's love for Concubine Zheng may be what Mr. Plato said, a purely spiritual love that has nothing to do with the body.

Concubine Zheng said: "The most favored? What's the use? The son of my palace still hasn't been able to sit on the crown prince. Zhang Jing, there are only you and me here. Let me tell you something that is taboo. Mother said Zigui, if the emperor will succeed for a hundred years, the eldest son will be the emperor. Can the queen and concubine Gong let me go?"

Zhang Jing sighed: "If the eldest son of the emperor really succeeds to the throne, those people will not let the slaves go."

Concubine Zheng said: "Therefore, there are some things that need to be done sooner rather than later. While I still have the favor and you are in power, we must quickly make Xun'er the crown prince!"

Zhang Jing knelt down to Concubine Zheng with a "thump": "Don't worry, Concubine Gui. Even if you risk the life of this servant, this servant will let the third son of the emperor become the heir apparent of Ming Dynasty!"

Concubine Zheng looked at Zhang Jing with a full smile: "I assure you. If Xun'er can inherit the Datong in the future, you will still be in the hands of the Supervisor of Ceremonies!"

Zhang Jing said with tears in his eyes, "I don't care about the seat of the supervisor of ceremonies. As long as the young master can be the Ninth Five-Year King, you can be the queen mother. Even if the servant loses his life because of this, he can still smile at Jiuquan."

Zhang Jing went out of Shude Courtyard, and when he returned to the outer house, it was already the head of willows on the moon.He sent his confidant eunuch, Zhao Min, the right capital censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate overnight.

Zhang Jing asked Zhao Min: "What is the country?"

Zhao Min replied: "The great government of the country is the foundation of the country, the system of ancestors is the foundation of the country, and the crown prince is also the foundation of the country."

Zhang Jing pretended to be worried: "Now the position of crown prince is vacant. If the foundation of the country is unstable, the society will be in danger. As the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Right Capital Academy, you should advise the emperor to establish the foundation of the country as soon as possible, stabilize the official heart, The heart of the army and the heart of the people."

Zhao Min said: "Understood. I will contact our people tomorrow, and we will jointly submit a paper and recommend the third son of the emperor as the crown prince."

Zhang Jing smiled and said: "You are a smart person, you should know that the emperor has always wanted to make the third son the crown prince. It was just because of the ancestral system that he could not do this. This time, if you submit the book, it is tantamount to Paved a golden step for the emperor. After the matter is completed, the emperor will thank you. I will also thank you. Your future official career will be guaranteed."

Zhao Min said: "Your officer understands. Eunuch Zhang, don't worry, I will handle this matter beautifully."

Zhang Jing didn't expect that Zhao Min left his outer house, turned around and went to He's residence.

Wearing a pair of western reading glasses, He Liuzheng wrote a letter to his grandson Li Hanjiao, advising him not to be full of complaints, but to practice his ability to govern the country in the border of Yunnan.

Zhu Xiang was on the side, carefully grinding ink for his father.

Seeing Zhao Min coming, He Liu took off his reading glasses: "What happened?"

Zhao Min said: "Sixth Master, Zhang Jing came to me tonight and asked me to lead the officials to submit a joint paper and recommend the third son of the emperor as the crown prince."

He Liu thought for a moment, and then said: "You write the draft of the joint booklet here."

Zhao Min cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Sixth Master."

He Liu seemed to remember something, and asked, "By the way, you came to my house, did you follow me?"

Zhao Min said: "Don't worry, Mr. Liu. Now Zhang Jing regards me as one of his three main officers. He will never send the factory guards to keep an eye on me."

He Liu nodded: "Okay. Write quickly."

An official like Zhao Min is best at writing memorials.His writing and thinking flowed like a spring, and it took him an hour to write an eloquent essay.

After finishing writing, he handed the Wanyan fold to He Liu.

He Liu put on his reading glasses again, and looked at it carefully from beginning to end.Then he said: "At the end of the excerpt, you should add this sentence. With this sentence, Zhang Jing will definitely die."

Zhao Min asked, "What are you talking about?"

He Liu didn't answer, but picked up a pen and added a sentence on the draft: "Please listen to the words of the eunuch Zhang Jing, a virtuous minister such as the supervisor of ceremonies, and immediately appoint Zhu Changxun, the third son of the emperor, as the heir apparent."

After Zhao Min watched from the sidelines, he was puzzled: "Sixth Master, I don't understand. Adding this sentence can make Zhang Jing die for sure?"

He Liu smiled slightly: "Zhao Duyuan, you still don't understand our emperor. Listen to me, just add this sentence."

Zhao Min took the draft, folded it and put it in the sleeve of his robe: "Then sixth master, I will take my leave first."

After Zhao Min left, Zhu Xiang asked He Liu: "Father, the emperor wants to make the third son the crown prince. Zhang Jing led the party members and advised the emperor to appoint the third son, which fulfilled the emperor's wish. Maybe the emperor is happy. Zhang Jing will be rewarded. What do you always say, Zhang Jing will die in this matter?"

He Liu said with a smile: "You are the same as Zhao Min, you haven't figured out the emperor's heart. Just watch, the fun is about to begin."
