Princess Xin looked at Empress Dowager Zhang calmly and said like a chat: "Yes, the concubine is over 80 years old, so it is normal to be anxious. The last time I went to visit, the concubine mentioned a few candidates. I think that the little niece of the Duke of England, named Zhang Yun, is very good."

Empress Dowager Zhang smiled in her heart, and finally got to the point, and then agreed, "I don't look like you, Princess, and I haven't left the palace much, but you have always been aware of the general idea. If you say it's good, then it must be good. Wait a few years later, if it's really good, we will choose for the emperor."

The selection of concubines in the Ming Dynasty was very complicated and had no choice but to do so. They were all handled by elders, and they were not much better than the court's proposal.

Princess Xin looked at Empress Dowager Zhang carefully and laughed and said, "I don't know about the emperor's sister-in-law. The rumors spread throughout the capital, saying that the British Duke was planning to be ill-gotten and was sent to prison by the emperor..."

Before Princess Xin finished speaking, Empress Dowager Zhang waved her hand to interrupt her, and said in a cold tone: "Sister, you understand our royal rules. You should be sensible in your heart if you shouldn't say anything or do what you shouldn't do."

Princess Xin felt awesome, but she was still a little younger after all. She looked at Empress Dowager Zhang and said with a reluctant smile: "Yes, sister, remember."

Empress Dowager Zhang looked at Princess Xin, frowned, and sighed in her heart.

She has not stopped since she moved into Cining Palace. She has been a royal family, external ministers, internal officials, princes and nobles, and now even the princess of the regent Prince Xin, who is now serving as the governor.

Queen Mother Zhang is a typical "virtuous" woman. She has read some books, knows the general and understands the truth, but she has never been involved in government affairs and the world's situation, nor does she want to involve it. She upholds the belief that "the harem does not interfere in politics". Whether it is Tianqi or Zhu Xu, she has never said more than half of this.

However, the British official business is of great importance, and the princess who have always been Shujing has been criticized by the palace.

Empress Dowager Zhang thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, go back and tell King Xin, calm down, I will go to see the emperor later and ask about the situation."

Princess Xin was delighted and stood up quickly and said, "Thank you, my sister-in-law."

Ye Xianggao and others stood in front of Taihe Gate, standing in a scattered manner, talking, and there were more than 40 people, all of whom were senior officials of the third rank or above.

Zhao Nanxing's thin face, with a proud look on his face, stood beside Ye Xianggao, and said in a deep voice: "Master Ye, the emperor is too willful and we are afraid we can't wait here."

As soon as Zhao Nanxing finished speaking, he stood up alone behind him and shouted: "What Mr. Zhao said is that the emperor was young and ignorant and no one advised him. It is a misfortune of the country. If the emperor still acted so recklessly, I would have killed him in front of this step and advised Jinluan in blood!"

"Okay, I'm also my one. The loyal minister's blood splashed in front of the king, and he died as much as possible!"

"I hope the emperor will wake up and listen to the opinions of all the ministers and the words of loyal ministers, and revive our Ming Dynasty!"

"Why don't we go straight to Wenzhao Pavilion? Please see the emperor and present us with advice in person!"

These adults were excited and gathered together. Every word of your words, they really wanted to break into the palace.

There were guards staring at them not far away. When they saw that they were in such a posture, they quickly recruited people and sent people to report.

In Wen Zhao Pavilion, Zhu Xu looked at it for a while and was extremely bored, so he got up to read the memoir again.

He found that since he became an emperor, all he could do seemed to be the only thing he could do was to comment on the memorial.

Cao Huachun stood not far away, looked at his back and said, "Emperor, Ye Xianggao and others were outside the Huangji Palace, clamoring to meet the saint."

Zhu Xu was in his hand. He said that many places in Shaanxi had severe drought this year. Officials colluded to conceal the reports and concealed the food and wages for disaster relief, which caused many civil unrest. The local garrison could not pacify and asked the court to send troops to slaughter the disaster.

Zhu Xu felt very stressed. A nationwide drought was getting closer, but he had no time to purify the garrisons in Shaanxi, Xi, Shanxi, Henan and other places. Sun Chengzong was still in the southwest. When he came back, he had to go to Liaodong without stopping.

The most chaotic provinces can only wait for Liaodong to come to an end.

Zhu Xu thought for a while and said, "How long has it been?"

Cao Huachun said, "After about half an hour, Princess Xin also came out of Cining Palace."

Zhu Xu put down the memorial, pondered for a while, and said, "It seems that they have to divert their attention. Notify Wei Zhongxian that they can do it."

Cao Huachun didn't know what "take action" meant, and felt a little uneasy. He glanced at his back and hesitated and said, "Yes."

Gu Bingqian’s mansion.

Gu Bingqian and his fellow disciples, including the Minister of Rites, the Censor of the Kedao Censor, etc., were sitting in the lobby, smiling happily and chatting with tea.

"Gei Master, the Donglin Party's riot will make the emperor even more annoyed, and it will definitely not add the cabinet ministers. You, the assistant, really have the prestige of the prime minister!"

"Not only, the British Duke will be able to leave the Central Army's Protector, and the emperor will definitely not have a good time. I believe he will rely more on the Chief Supervisor."

"The only one who looks like the Donglin Party is Yang Lian in the court. As long as the emperor does not add cabinets, the court will definitely have the highest prestige in our cabinet!"

"It won't take long. Let's use some means to drive Yang Lian away. The old master said something in the court, and the day is not far away when he calls the wind and rain!"

Gu Bingqian smiled and smiled, smiling and not speaking, but just looked out the door with a deep meaning on his face.

Gu Bingqian was really excited inside. In his opinion, it would not take long for the Ministry of Rites and Works to take control of him. Only then would he be the chief assistant be worthy of his name and be able to "exorcate evil and use justice" to drive the Donglin Party out of the court, and show his long-cherished wish.

Gu Bingqian thought proudly for a while, and suddenly said to himself, "I have to compensate the emperor, well, the national treasury is empty, I will go out to contact you later and donate some silver to the Ministry of Revenue. I will probably eliminate the unhappiness in the emperor's heart...'

"Master, Master, someone is here."

Gu Bingqian was thinking proudly, a servant hurried in, and the other was unstable tripped by the threshold, and fell to eat shit.

The aura of the assistant Gu Bingqian suddenly appeared. He looked at the servant who had climbed up and shouted with a cold face: "Bastard, when did you learn so unruly? Come on, you are an expert in law!"

The servants were about to cry and said, "Master, he is here..."

Gu Bingqian frowned, became more and more angry, and cursed: "Who is here, make it clear!"

As soon as Gu Bingqian finished speaking, a voice outside also rang out, "Son Master Gu, it seems that he has forgotten the miscellaneous family."

Gu Bingqian's face changed slightly. When he looked up, he saw Wei Zhongxian, who was wearing a python uniform and energetic, walked out, stood at the door, holding his hands and smiling at him with a gloomy smile.

Gu Bingqian's body shook, and something seemed to be stuck in his throat. He opened his eyes wide and could not say a word.

Everyone in the lobby stood up in panic and stared at Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian stepped into the lobby, kept looking at Gu Bingqian, and said with a smile, "Are you surprised when Mr. Gu saw the miscellaneous family?"

The grudge between Wei Zhongxian and Gu Bingqian is hard to tell. The two broke up and got back together. In short, Gu Bingqian was mostly sorry for Wei Zhongxian. Wei Zhongxian was imprisoned, and Gu Bingqian did not step on him.
