Jinyi Town Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 821 An Appropriate Reason
Zhu Gaochi has a son named Zhu Zhanji.He was born intelligent and deeply loved by Emperor Yong Le.Because of his grandson, Emperor Yong Le gave Zhu Gaochi the crown prince position.This is the allusion of "good emperor and grandson".

Of course Emperor Wanli knew what He Liu meant by "a good empress dowager".

Concubine Gong, the biological mother of the eldest son of the emperor, is cowardly but honest.If the eldest son of the emperor succeeds to the throne and Concubine Gong becomes the empress dowager, she will certainly not follow the example of the empress dowager Li back then, interfering in the government and treating the emperor as a puppet.

What about Concubine Zheng, the biological mother of the third son?Emperor Wanli loved Concubine Zheng deeply and knew Concubine Zheng better.He knew that the woman he loved was very much like his mother, Empress Dowager Li.Ambitious, cunning, and when necessary, vicious beyond ordinary people.Although these shortcomings did not prevent Emperor Wanli from loving her, they would pose a threat to Zhu's family.

He Liu, who was old and only had white hair left, completely changed Emperor Wanli's mind by using the words "Good Empress Dowager".

Do you choose the youngest son you love, or choose the ten thousand years of the Zhu family?Emperor Wanli has already made a decision.

Emperor Wanli said, "Okay, He Aiqing, let's talk about the second thing. Zhang Jing..."

As soon as Emperor Wanli said the word "Zhang Jing", the 76-year-old He Liu, like an agile monkey, buckled his head at him with lightning speed: "I understand, I will resign!"

Emperor Wanli smiled meaningfully: "It's good to understand. There are not many people in this world who can understand my heart. You old guy is one of them."

He Liu stood up and strode towards the gate of the palace.He knew that the last case he handled in his long Jinyiwei career should be closed!

He Liu walked out of the main hall of Yongshou Palace, and Wei Zhongxian followed him: "Master Liu, Zhongxian sent you out of the palace."

In the long palace alley, Wei Zhongxian asked He Liu: "Master Liu, is the emperor going to attack Zhang Jing?"

He Liu replied: "What Zhang Jing has done has already touched the emperor's bottom line. It's time for him to be destroyed forever."

Wei Zhongxian said: "Zhao Min has already written the memorial to Wei Zhongxian. The reason is that Zhang Jing sold his official title to occupy the arsenal and demolish the city wall for the purpose of building a mansion. He has evil intentions."

He Liu turned around and asked Wei Zhongxian with a smile, "Does Zhao Min want to help Zhang Jing, or kill Zhang Jing?"

Wei Zhongxian replied: "Of course I want to kill Zhang Jing."

He Liudao: "Let me ask you, it doesn't matter whether you want to sell your officials or rank, or take over the arsenal and demolish the city walls. When did these things happen?"

Wei Zhongxian said: "It was the emperor's decree that all the affairs of the cabinet happened after the hands of Zhang Jing."

He Liu sternly said: "The emperor just gave Zhang Jinguo great power, and Zhang Jing ran amok; he regarded the government as a child's play; he regarded the official position as a commodity that can be traded; An eunuch's fool? How will the history books evaluate the emperor? If such a book is handed over, will the emperor deal with Zhang Jing?"

Wei Zhongxian looked distressed: "Sixth Master, according to what you say, we can't kill Zhang Jing."

He Liu smiled and said: "At this moment, I kill Zhang Jing like killing a dog. However, the crime is not Zhang Jing, but Zhang Xun, Zhang Jing's younger brother. I will let Zhang Jing be convicted because of his brother's involvement. .”

Wei Zhongxian was at a loss: "Six Lord, forgive me for being stupid..."

He Liu turned around and said, "You only need to do one thing for me now. Think about how to torture Zhang Jing for me, so as to relieve my hatred of losing my wife and son."

After finishing speaking, He Liu tried his best to straighten his hunched waist, and strode out of the palace gate.

Hong Lang and the bearers were waiting for He Liu outside the palace gate.

He Liu got into the sedan chair.Hong Lang asked: "Sixth Master, shall we go back to the mansion?"

He Liu replied, "No, go to Li Gao's residence, Marquis of Wuqing."

Li Gao, Marquis of Wuqing, younger brother of Empress Dowager Li, uncle of Emperor Wanli, apprentice of Lao Hu, and older brother of He Liu. . .This person will be the key to He Liu's complete downfall of the powerful official Zhang Jing.

Hall of Marquis of Wuqing Mansion.

In his fifties, Li Gao, with gray temples, came to the hall with his clothes on to welcome He Liu.Time is like water, the arrogant and domineering royal family who loves to do absurd things back then is now showing old age.

Li Gao cupped his hands and said, "Sixth Brother, why are you here in the middle of the night?"

He Liudao: "Uncle Guo, I have something to ask you."

Li Gao hurriedly said: "You are my sixth brother, you asked me to do something, why do you need to say 'beg'? Please sit down first, come on, quickly serve my sixth brother tea!"

A servant served tea to the two of them, Li Gao took a sip, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "Sixth Brother, every time I drink tea in front of you, I think of the man who drank dung soup in the Tianjin Wei Commander's Yamen 30 years ago. Here comes the matter."

When He Liu heard the words, he looked at Li Gao and smiled.

Li Gao asked: "Tell me, Sixth Brother. You are a person who does great things. There must be a reason for coming to my idle royal family late at night."

He Liudao: "On the day of Lao Hu's death, you came to my house, didn't you tell me to find a good husband for your little daughter? Now I have found a candidate."

Li Gao was a little strange: "This is not an urgent matter. You just come to me during the day. Why bother to come to me at night... Who is the candidate?"

He Liu said a person's name: "The new commander of Jin Yiwei, Zhang Xun!"

"Crack!" Li Gao accidentally dropped the tea bowl on the ground.

Li Gao frowned tightly: "Sixth brother, you came to me in the middle of the night just to make me happy?"

He Liudao: "How dare I make old uncle Guo happy?"

Li Gao became angry: "Sixth brother. Who is that Zhang Xun? The younger brother of the eunuch, the slave of a lowly house slave. Who is my Jiaoer? The niece of the Empress Dowager Li! The emperor's cousin! Let Jin Zhiyu Ye marry a house slave House slave? If this happens, what will be the face of my Marquis of Wuqing Mansion? What will be the face of Empress Dowager Li? What will be the face of the emperor?"

Li Gao stood up and walked to He Liu's side: "Leaving aside the status, my Jiaoer is a 15-year-old slim girl. Zhang Xun's guy is a bad old man in his 40s. And I heard that he spends all his time whoring Sleeping in a willow box with fireworks, hurt the penis. He couldn't have children. He pushed the matter of not being able to have children on the first wife, and divorced the first wife. Choose another wife..."

He Liu stood up and knelt down to Li Gao with a "plop".

Li Gao hurriedly supported He Liu: "Sixth brother, what are you doing?"

Not only did He Liu not get up, but he kowtowed heavily to Li Gao: "Uncle Guo, whether you can avenge your sixth sister-in-law's revenge, and whether you can avenge your Shizhong nephew's revenge is all up to you."

Li Gao was stunned: "What do you mean?"

He Liu confessed the whole thing.

After hearing this, Li Gao sat down on the chair.

He Liudao: "It's not that your Jiaoer is really going to marry Zhang Xun. Just make an appointment, and you just accept Zhang Xun's betrothal gift."

Li Gao thought for a long time, and said: "It is indeed a serious crime for a domestic slave to marry the emperor's relatives. But Zhang Xun is the one who committed the crime. Will the emperor blame Zhang Xun's brother Zhang Jing for this matter?"

He Liu replied: "The emperor has already killed Zhang Jing. I just need to give the emperor a proper reason now, and the emperor will use this to punish Zhang Jing."

Li Gaodao: "Alright. Sixth Brother, for Sixth Sister-in-Law, for nephew Shizhong, I promise you!"

He Liudao: "Then please. It's getting late, I'll go home first."

He Liu walked to the entrance of the hall, but Li Gao stopped him: "Brother Liu, my master lied to me back then. He had a secret book of flying knives called "Sunflower Treasure Book". I found it."

He Liu turned his head: "Oh?"

Li Gao pointed to his chest: "The most powerful secret of flying knives lies in the human heart. The flying knife in the human heart can kill people invisible and kill enemies thousands of miles away."

He Liu didn't answer, and left the Marquis of Wuqing Mansion.
