Imperial Palace, Xinuang Pavilion.
In front of Zhu Youtang was a pile of memorials impeaching the Zhang brothers for their evil deeds. Because they were compiled, each one seemed to be well-founded, which made him angrier and angrier as he read them.
"It's really nonsense. I asked them to enter the Beijing Camp, but they made the Beijing Camp into a mess. If things go on like this, this Beijing Camp will have no fighting power, but it will not be as good as when the British were here." Zhu Youtang sternly criticized.
Chen Kuan said cautiously, "Your Majesty, from what I can see, the two uncles are indeed not suitable for the job at hand. They have a very bad reputation in the army. Mr. Cai Guogong is not in Beijing now." , there are fewer people to supervise them, and they are not afraid of ordinary people."
Zhu Youtang raised his head and said, "Now that Bingkuan is here, they know they are afraid."
Chen Kuandao said, "They will still be more or less afraid." He has some scruples, and Cai Guogong is still very effective in preventing people from acting arbitrarily."
"That's it."
Zhu Youtang suddenly felt that Zhang Zhou was very important. .
Not only can he help him, his son, and even the Ming Dynasty, he can even regulate the behavior of his two brothers-in-law. This is simply omniscience and omnipotence.
Chen Kuan said again, "But if we just let the two uncles withdraw from their errands in the capital, it will be difficult to find someone suitable for them. But if we let them stay, I am afraid that it will be difficult to impeach them." It will increase even more.”
It doesn’t matter if you stay, it doesn’t matter if you don’t.
This made Zhu Youtang really embarrassed.
After thinking for a moment, Zhu Youtang said, "My original intention was to let them cultivate their minds and nature in the capital camp. But now it seems that no matter how Bingkuan gives them advice, their nature is hard to change. That's the case. , it’s better not to give them any errands.”
“The Queen’s side,” Chen Kuan reminded carefully.
This is the emperor's family matter, and as a eunuch, Chen Kuan can be regarded as the emperor's "close friend", so he reminds him like this.
Ordinary people would never dare to say that.
This also seems friendly.
Zhu Youtang said, "If you give me errands, it's fine if they can't do it well, and they just do whatever they want. If you don't give me errands, just say that I've treated them badly. What on earth do I have to do to be satisfactory? I have to use the government to accompany me." Are they fooling around?"
Chen Kuan saw that the emperor was angry and did not dare to speak.
However, Chen Kuan was also thinking in his mind that this is now. Before, the emperor would not have cared so much and only cared about his two brothers-in-law. If the emperor had not been so partial, he would not have let the two My brother-in-law is so fearless.
So in this matter, the emperor has a big responsibility. This is obviously the result of connivance.
"Then send them to Bingkuan" Zhu Youtang still compromised in the end. Even if Zhang Zhou gave him courage now, he was still a strict henwife after all, and he still looked down upon Empress Zhang. Without raising his head, he said, "Let Bingkuan take care of them."
"Yes." Chen Kuan responded quickly.
Leaving the Zhang brothers in the capital is also a harm to his interests.My younger brother is a danger to anyone in the power structure. Now that he can use the emperor's help to allocate the Zhang brothers to Zhang Zhou, Chen Kuan also solves two big problems.
Zhu Youtang made the decision very readily, but after making the decision, he naturally knew that he would be counterattacked by his wife.
After hearing the news, Queen Zhang first ran to Xinuan Pavilion to ask for an audience. When she had no choice but to do so, she seemed to be angry and knelt directly outside Xinuan Pavilion in the winter, as if to support her two younger brothers.
"What"
When Zhu Youtang knew that his wife could uncharacteristically threaten him with almost self-harm, he really didn't expect it.
Wei Bin, who came in to deliver the message, said, "Your Majesty, it's already time for a stick of incense."
Zhu Youtang almost got up and went out to welcome his wife in, but after taking two steps, he suddenly Realizing something, he asked with a cold face, "Are you just kneeling on the ground like this? There are no cushions or anything."
Wei Bin said, "There are some."
"That's okay." Zhu Youtang suddenly didn't feel so distressed anymore. He looked as heroic as a man who finally gained the courage. He sat back and said, "If she can kneel down for an hour, let her come in and see me again."
That's it. .
Empress Zhang thought that this trick would make her husband surrender and admit his mistake immediately, but she waited for nearly an hour. Wei Bin, who was still watching the time, was afraid of being offended by the empress, so he gave Zhu Youtang a little time in advance. He lied about the time so that Queen Zhang could go in and meet.
"Your Majesty, please abolish this concubine. I am not worthy of being this queen. She has taught my younger brother all kinds of things. She cannot give birth to more children for your majesty. I am not qualified for the errands given by your majesty." "For the rest of my life, I just want to be able to guard the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha."
Queen Zhang is a master at controlling her husband.
This time she was also holding back her anger and had nowhere to vent her anger, so she used her husband as a test subject.
In her impression, let alone such a big battle, even if it was a small fight in the past, her husband would obey obediently. She was prepared to see her husband laugh.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Youtang seemed indifferent to his wife who was kneeling in front of him. He just raised his eyes and then lowered his head and continued to do his thing.
"Your Majesty"
"That's enough"
Zhu Youtang suddenly shouted sharply.
Because this voice was full of majesty, Queen Zhang was not expecting it, and Queen Zhang could not continue to speak.
The scene fell into silence for a period of time.
Empress Zhang suddenly realized that the "scandalous things" she had done in front of her eyes were all seen by Chen Kuan and others. She took advantage of Zhu Youtang's still bowed head to give Chen Kuan and others The wink means that if you don't know what to do, hurry up and resign. This is our family matter. What are you doing here to join in the fun?
But Chen Kuan and others did not receive the emperor's instructions, and they did not dare to leave casually.
Zhu Youtang lowered his head and asked in a cold tone, "Queen, do you know how many people have participated in the impeachment recently?""He Ling and Yan Ling?"
Empress Zhang did not answer.
Participating in impeachment
Is this a big deal?
I have encountered this before For such things, the emperor would directly scold those officials who spoke ill of their character in front of her. Some officials were even thrown into prison directly. If the eunuchs in the palace were ignorant and dared to cause trouble for her two brothers, they would be beaten to death without any discussion. .
Now she is actually asked to reflect
Zhu Youtang said, "My original intention is to let them help Bingkuan to complete the errands of the Beijing camp, but who knows what they think." There is only money in it, and outside of it there is no righteousness at all. They treat the imperial court like a street vendor in the morning market."
Empress Zhang said with a somewhat aggrieved voice, "They also want to help His Majesty, but the method they use is wrong. "
"This is called gang, but I don't need their help." Zhu Youtang finally raised his head, with great majesty in his eyes, "Bingkuan is not in Beijing, and there is no one to control them. I also discovered that except for Bingkuan, no one can make them afraid. Even I and you can only fool them. "
Empress Zhang hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, do you want a foreign minister to discipline my concubine's two younger brothers?"
Zhu Youtang said, "What do you think of Bingkuan?" Are you not qualified? Let me just say this. He Ling and Yan Ling have changed their gender slightly in the past two years and have achieved some achievements. Who helped him achieve it?"
Empress Zhang was speechless at this time.
Of course she would not be happy if Zhang Zhou was asked to give advice or to take care of his two younger brothers.
But if the two younger brothers were asked to follow Zhang Zhou to do military exploits. , in fact, it is not unacceptable. From the perspective of a sister, this kind of thing is something that can only happen.
Seeing that his wife seemed to be more reasonable, Zhu Youtang continued, "I have thought about it. , Jingying is not suitable for them to stay unless Bingkuan is there. ”
When Empress Zhang heard this, it seemed that her husband didn’t care about the conflicts between their husband and wife, and the two parties did not talk about the “abolition of the queen” further, which meant that her husband also knew that what she said was angry. , she will also feel that her husband is considerate of her.
Queen Zhang said, “Then call Bingkuan back. "
Zhu Youtang said coldly, "I sent him to Yongping Mansion to coordinate the dispatch of troops. At the same time, I also asked Mao Ren and Tang Yin to lead troops to Liaodong to quell the Jurchens. This is a major event for the imperial court. How can you change it casually? There are other things that I can't tell you. Anyway, Bingkuan can't return to Beijing for the time being. "
Queen Zhang was angry again.
"But I can let Heling and Yanling go to Yongping Mansion to study with Bingkuan, and they can also be called by Bingkuan. . "Zhu Youtang said.
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten that the Zhang Qing family directly asked Heling and Yanling to go to some bitter and cold places in the border areas, and they would not be able to come back for a long time. They suffered It's hard work over there. "Empress Zhang said.
Zhu Youtang instantly became angry, slapped the table and said, "I can't bear the hardship. Do you blame me or Bingkuan? Do you think I didn't give them a chance or Bingkuan?" Kuan is being mean to them”
Queen Zhang was speechless for a moment.
“If I wanted to gain military glory, I sent them to fight in the border areas. If I wanted to have power to help me manage the affairs of the court, I arranged for them to go to the capital camp. I didn’t pamper them enough. How did they repay me? They fled when they arrived at the border town, and they took bribes and violated the law when they arrived at the capital camp. I didn’t hold them accountable, but let them train with Bingkuan and help them gain military merit. Aren’t I partial to them enough?"
Zhu You Tang quarreled with his wife, his face turned red and his heart stopped beating, as if he was suddenly free of any illness.
The look of persistence also made Chen Kuan and others feel frightened.
This is still a little different from the emperor they knew. They always feel that the emperor in front of them seems to have a more imperial demeanor.
How dare you argue with the queen and make such a long speech? It’s not like you.
While sobbing, Empress Zhang whispered, “They have not suffered so much, and they have no bad intentions. They are more loyal than those ministers, and they will not harm the imperial court. I only have these two brothers.”
It didn’t work when Empress Zhang was making trouble just now, but this time she cried, Zhu Youtang was still more or less. Somewhat soft-hearted.
Chen Kuan almost wanted to remind the emperor that we cannot be merciful and tell them to get out, just let them get out.
But at this time, whoever dares to interfere in the emperor's family affairs will still have his head moved with a careless word in front of the queen.
Zhu Youtang said with a slightly calmer tone, "I have thought about it. This time Heling and Yanling go to Yongping Mansion. If they can make meritorious service, I will promote Heling to the title of Duke of Changguo, and Yanling as the Duke of Changguo." Marquis Jianchang."
"Your Majesty"
Queen Zhang was also a little confused.
This is like giving a sweet date with a stick
But then Queen Zhang also realized that there was a prerequisite for this matter, that is, they must have meritorious service and obtain military honors in the Ming Dynasty. , is not an easy task, but after having Zhang Zhou, it seems that everything is not so difficult.
Zhu Youtang said, "It doesn't take too much credit. According to my estimation, as long as they have no faults and can complete the tasks assigned by Bingkuan, they can be promoted. However, Bingkuan's recommendation is also required." If Bingkuan feels that they are not enough, then continue to practice."
"This" Queen Zhang said, "Your Majesty, who do you want to promote? Why should you listen to a minister?"
Zhu Youtang's voice rose another octave and said, "Queen, just tell me, now on military matters, I don't listen to Bingkuan, who can I listen to? I also want to personally inspect Heling and Yan With my age, do you think it’s convenient for me to go?”
When Queen Zhang thought about it, it seemed to make sense.
If there is anyone other than the emperor who can give him great help in military affairs, even Empress Zhang, who does not understand court affairs, knows that it must be Bingkuan.
Don’t ask for anything from others. Whenever you ask for help, you must ask for forgiveness. That will definitely work.
"But what if Bingkuan deliberately made things difficult for them?" Empress Zhang seemed to have accepted her husband's solution.
Let the two younger brothers stay in the capital camp, they have no choice but toInstead of earning two extra dollars, he didn’t give it to her. Instead, he asked her for it every time he came.
From the perspective of his younger brother getting ahead, being promoted to a higher position, and gaining respect from others, following Zhang Zhou Hun's military exploits are definitely the best.
Zhu Youtang said coldly, "I don't think Bingkuan will deliberately embarrass them. If Bingkuan is such a petty person, do you think He Ling and Yan Ling will be willing to suffer a loss?" They will jump out. If you let them stay in the border town, they will become deserters and there is nothing they can do." After hearing this, Queen Zhang wanted to find a way to drill into the ground.
It is really a villain’s heart to judge a gentleman’s heart.
No matter how innocent Zhang Zhou was, he helped the Zhang brothers, but Empress Zhang still felt awkward. After all, the matter of Concubine Xian entering the palace was still involved with Zhang Zhou.
This will make Queen Zhang very conflicted.
Zhu Youtang said, "I will give Bingkuan an order to take Heling and Yanling with him wherever he goes. The errands arranged for them will not be front-line charges. Leave good opportunities to them. If they don't know how to seize it, or even run away, I won't let them go lightly this time."
"Your Majesty" Queen Zhang will certainly not be happy.
I said that my two brothers were going to gold-plating and military exploits, so how could they be punished
"You also want me to give them the best opportunity to prevent them from committing crimes." It's dangerous. Do they have to make them notorious and then think of saving it? Now that they are mentioned in the court, who else will respect them? This time they entered the Beijing camp, it was Bingkuan who gave them a chance. Who knew they were..."
Zhu Youtang was also helpless.
In the eyes of the emperor, Zhang Zhou was devoted to helping the Zhang brothers, but the Zhang brothers were ungrateful and always messed up things.
Empress Zhang said, "Your Majesty, please don't be angry. The dragon's body is the most important thing. I agree. Not only do I agree, I will also teach them a lesson for Your Majesty so that they can calm down and do good things for Bingkuan." . I also understand that Bingkuan is helping them go to the capital this time. I haven’t had time to thank Bingkuan properly. Don’t worry, Your Majesty, they won’t let you down." End of this chapter
