Chapter 904: Smart Dingmeng
Chapter 904: Smart Alliance
"The Imperial Concubine wants to see me?"
Wang Tong asked in surprise, and Zhao Jinliang naturally nodded affirmatively. The concubines in the inner palace wanted to meet foreign ministers, and usually became the queen mother after they became the queen mother. For example, the Queen Mother of Cisheng, Li, Concubine Zheng, is not qualified yet. Of course, when he was fighting with demons in the palace three years ago, Wang Tong also met Concubine Zheng.
The current situation is no different from that at that time. Wang Tong hesitated and sorted out his armor and walked in with Zhao Jinliang.
When they were in Cining Palace, the eunuchs and palace maids there were glaring at Wang Tong, wishing they could peel him off and eat meat. In the Ganqing Palace, the eunuchs and palace maids expressed their greatest respect, and it came from the heart.
For the palace people, whether their master's power or not represents their own wealth and glory. If the master loses power, they will be worthless.
In a sense, Wang Tong was their great benefactor.
It is strictly forbidden to distinguish between inside and outside. Wang Tong walked in the corridor, and the palace maids all hid early, hid on both sides and watched secretly, chuckling from time to time.
Wang Tong naturally would not look around. He looked at his heart with his mouth and nose, and walked quietly on the corridor. However, the elderly eunuchs in the Ganqing Palace did not go over and scolded and drove them away so severely.
Not long after he walked, he arrived at the main hall. After Wang Tong was led into the yard, he waited in the yard. Zhao Jinliang ran in to report that this yard should be the private residence of the Tian family's living room, and there was no sign of luxury. It was elegant and had some characteristics. Wang Tong looked around and stood up solemnly.
After a while, I heard a noise in front of me. I looked up slightly and the two palace maids lowered the bead curtain in front of me. Soon, someone reported:
"The Imperial Concubine is here."
The voice was not loud, Wang Tong hurriedly bowed and was about to kowtow to salute, but heard a female voice behind the curtain:
"How can we mother and son bear the favor of Wang Da, so how can we afford Lord Wang's kneeling down? Please get up quickly."
Wang Tong stopped his movements, and he still saluted in a normal manner and then stood up again. After a while, Concubine Zheng spoke again:
"The child Chang Xun is still very good. There are still many places to rely on Lord Wang in the future. In the wind and rain, I would like to ask Lord Wang to help you more. Please be worried."
Having said that, when Wang Tong heard the ringing of the bead curtain, he looked up, but saw the figure behind the curtain, and actually bowed and said:
"How can you afford to be a gift from the Empress and kill Wang Tong? Now your highness is the crown prince. As a minister, Wang is the duty to do his best to do his best. Please rest assured to the Empress."
"Over time, Lord Wang's glory and wealth have just begun, so please rest assured."
Concubine Zheng said something inside, and then there was no sound. Soon, a palace maid came over to roll up the curtain. Concubine Zheng had already left, and Wang Tong's face had not changed much. Here, he could not help coming and going. Zhao Jinliang led him and asked Zhao Jinliang to lead him out.
The curtain was rolled up for a while, but Zhao Jinliang ran over and said with a smile:
"Brother Wang, Long lively, I need to sleep for a while when I am extremely sleepy. He asked you to wait in the Imperial Study room, and Eunuch Zhang invites you to have tea!"
Wang Tong responded with a smile, followed Zhao Jinliang out of the yard, left the Ganqing Palace, and left the area. Wang Tong asked Zhao Jinliang to inform the guards and asked them to change the troops he brought in.
Now the other party can give orders and all the people who are able to give orders are encircled or removed from office. In the current situation, if no soldiers will be mobilized without following the procedures, Wang Tong is relieved. If he still lets the soldiers he brought in stay in the imperial city at this time, he will give others a clear warning.
After going to the Imperial Study Room, Zhao Jinliang did not lead him in, but led Wang Tong to a courtyard beside him, explaining as he walked:
"Eunuch Zhang wants to accompany Master Long Live, and the errands on the Silijian side cannot be delayed, so he specially asked someone to build a small courtyard next to him to work and rest there."
There are also guards outside the courtyard, but Zhao Jinliang was naturally not stopped. Wang Tong entered the room, Zhang Cheng waved his hand with a smile, signaling Wang Tong to sit down, and then said to Zhao Jinliang:
"Xiaoliang, please stand at the entrance of the yard. All the people around the yard let them disperse. Lord Wang and I have something to say."
Zhao Jinliang bent obediently there, and then ran out to take the men. Soon after, he heard Zhao Jinliang shouting from a distance. Zhang Cheng smiled and picked up the teapot to pour tea for Wang Tong. Wang Tong quickly stood up and was polite.
"Zou Yi is still staring at the North School. Your idea is right. Long live the order to let them move. They may not obey the order, but let them not move, but they can't find any reason. The news just now came, all the battalions were a little anxious, but none of them dared to move."
Zhang Cheng said a few words with a smile, Wang Tong also nodded with a smile, and Zhang Cheng said casually:
"The imperial guards are too close to each other, so I dare not be careless. Zou Yi is staring at them there. Until now, he can't make any noise."
Zhang Cheng looked very relaxed, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, and said jokingly:
"In the Ming Dynasty, since the Zhengtong Year to the present, as long as there is not a prince, we will have to cause trouble for the establishment of a crown prince. Even if it is a foregone conclusion, some people want to take the opportunity to see if they can take a fight, but it is rare to make such a big fuss."
Speaking of this, Zhang Cheng's face was full of contempt and disdain, and continued:
"This kind of people only see Zhang Taiyue's status and power back then, but they don't see Zhang Taiyue's ability. It's really a mess and their brains are broken."
"It's just a hustle and bustle of ugly people. Why should Eunuch Zhang be angry about them?"
"Today, these officials were so righteous in their memorials. But when they saw swords and weapons, they were full of ugly things. What could they do? The real trouble was the one who moved out. This person, once he had the power in his hands, he would never give up and always wanted to take it back. For this power, the biological mother and son couldn't care about it. After longing this fate, it was really..."
Once a person relaxes in a nervous state, he is not so rigorous. Some words are also said casually, and Zhang Cheng is there siping tea and smiling.
"I think that the Lord of Long Sui has been in charge of too much. I think that our family is in trouble. I think that the cabinet is in trouble. I have to take this opportunity to stir up the wind... A few days ago, my family thought that from Nei Shutang to Prince Yu's Mansion to Silijian, a disabled person in our family has experienced everything. He has been in the hands of Silijian for so long. What else can I do? If they want to fight for it, they will give it to them. But when we see you come back, our family feels relieved. Only then can we realize that our family can't let go of this power."
Zhang Cheng sighed and laughed at himself, and Wang Tong was not easy to answer. Zhang Cheng shook his head and said:
"Zhang Jing was comparing with me when he was in Prince Yu's Mansion. Feng Bao couldn't compare, so he stared at me. When our family was the Silijian's pen, he was the seal of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and his status was higher than ours. I thought that as soon as Feng Bao left, with the empress dowager's trust in him, he should be the position of the Silijian's seal. He was angry, but so what? After this time, I guess I will go to Zhongdu to sweep the imperial tomb."
Zhang Jing was a confidant of Empress Dowager Cisheng Li. Emperor Wanli was unable to mobilize the imperial guards to suppress the civil officials and the marquis of Wuqing. It was because Zhang Jing was in the Imperial Horse Supervision Office for too long, so it was difficult for others to reach out. This time, Zhang Jing naturally lost power. He and Zhang Cheng had been intriguing for decades, and it was inevitable that he sighed at this time.
Zhang Cheng put the teacup on the table, patted it lightly, and said in a deep voice:
"Zhang Jing does his own responsibility, he does not regret it, and it doesn't have to be a pity for others, but this is really.... He can do things well, but it's a pity that he has ruined his mind when reading!"
Wang Tong always listened with a smile. These words can be regarded as an old man's prison. He can listen, but he has no qualifications to speak.
After Zhang Cheng finished speaking, he looked at Wang Tong, but lowered his voice and said:
"You are not in the capital, and the Jinyiwei is exposed in a group. No one cares about anything in the capital. No one is watching. The wind in the capital and outside will become stronger and stronger. In the end, the Emperor Longsheng dares not go to court. But as soon as you come back, the Jinyiwei Departments immediately started to move. You have only arranged it for two days. Now everything has subsided. You are really amazing. You are worthy of being the capital of the Jinyiwei."
Zhang Cheng's face was still smiling, but Wang Tong, who was sitting on the side, had no smile on his face. He clenched his hands unconsciously, stared at Zhang Cheng for a few glances, Wang Tong breathed a long sigh and returned to his normal state, but sweat oozed out of his palms. Zhang Cheng's smile became even stronger, and said leisurely:
"You made the people outside make a fuss, forcing the Lord to have nowhere to go, so you can only call you back and clean up the overall situation. Is this the plan?"
"What did Eunuch Zhang say? Wang Tong doesn't understand!"
Wang Tong answered in a deep voice. Zhang Cheng picked up the tea and drank it. It seemed that this tea was a fine wine. He sighed with great pleasure, but he had changed the topic when he was talking.
"Why did Feng Shuanglin be able to dominate the government and the people back then? Why did Zhang Taiyue be able to dominate the world? It was because they helped each other, shared voices and helped each other. But if they did not have the support of Queen Mother Cisheng, they would have been rootless and would not have been in nearly twenty years of glory."
The old man in front of him was very thin. If he did it himself, it might cause the illusion of sudden death. Wang Tong took a deep breath and suppressed his thoughts. Things had not reached this point.
"Now our family is at the top of our family. You are also a top-notch figure among the foreign ministers. Concubine Zheng became the prince's mother this time, and it is only a matter of time before the throne of the queen. Look, how similar is this to that time?"
“What does father-in-law mean?
Wang Tong has relaxed now, and Zhang Cheng said leisurely there:
"The Imperial Concubine is not old, you are only in your early twenties. Our family is old, and I don't know how many years he can serve the Lord Long Live. However, Zou Yi is only forty years old and Xiao Liang is only thirteen years old. This wealth and honor will last for a long time."—
