MTL - Ming Dynasty: My Brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao-Chapter 11 Encourage Wei Zhongxian, the cinnabar in the Forbidden City is poisonous!

  Chapter 11 Encourages Wei Zhongxian, the cinnabar in the Forbidden City is poisonous!

  The ancestor Wei Zhongxian mentioned was naturally Wang An.

  Zhang Gui understands that Wei Zhongxian wants to ask him for advice. If he finds someone to impeach Wang An so that he can make up his mind, now is not the time.

  Besides wanting to have more friends like most people, Wei Zhongxian does have this meaning in befriending Zhang Gui now.

   After all, Zhang Gui now seems to be quite favored.

   You know, the emperor actually committed suicide for Zhang Gui himself.

  It is impossible for a person like Wei Zhongxian not to see the weight of Zhang Gui in Tianqi's heart at this time.

  Although he already has a good relationship with the Ke family, it is not a trivial matter to bring down Wang An. In order to ensure everything is safe, Wei Zhongxian must make sure that every link does not go wrong. Naturally, he wants to win over Zhang Gui, who has recently been valued by Tianqi.

   "A servant girl cannot have a better reputation than the emperor."

   Zhang Gui said something, then asked Wei Zhongxian: "Eunuch Wei, what do you think?"

  After hearing this, Wei Zhongxian immediately understood Zhang Gui's implication, and smiled broadly.

   "The palace gate is here, please come back, Eunuch."

"Why!"

   Wei Zhongxian agreed, and bowed to Zhang Gui, and made a deep bow: "Respectfully send off the uncle of the country!"

   Zhang Gui is now happy to help Wei Zhongxian bring down Wang An, after all, who made Wang An trip him up.

  Before when Zhu Tongmeng asked the emperor to kill him, he had already seen that there must be Wang An's instruction.

Zhang Gui knows that in this era when the country is about to be ruined and the family is about to perish, if he wants to survive, or even live a nourishing life, he must not be merciful. People can't be soft-handed, after all, things like Wan Tianqing have never been as simple as inviting guests to dinner and just talking and reasoning.

  So, Wang An has been regarded as an enemy by him.

   "Is the emperor's heir really recovered?"

  As soon as Zhang Gui came back, he told Zhang Guoji that he had saved the emperor's heir and that Zhang Guoji was made an earl, and Zhang Guoji stood up in surprise.

  Zhang Gui nodded: "Why did you lie to you, my child?"

  Zhang Guoji laughed: "This is your sister's first child, it's a good thing to keep it!"

  Zhang Gui asked: "Aren't you happy about being an earl?"

   "I am also happy, but it is even more happy that the emperor's heir can keep this matter."

   Zhang Guoji replied.

  …

   "Is the emperor's heir saved?"

   Cabinet.

After hearing what Wang An said, Ye Xianggao was also very surprised, and said: "This is a good thing. Premature babies are always hard to live, especially the first illness, but as long as the first illness does not die young, the next one There is great hope that he is alive. This shows that he is blessed by heaven."

  Wang An sneered and said, "Yuan Fu said so."

   Then, Wang An said: "It's just that the emperor's heir was saved by the uncle Zhang Gui, and the medicine he gave has worked."

   "Why is it him!"

  Ye Xianggao frowned.

  Wang An also said helplessly: "Yeah, why is it him? He was a blessing in disguise!"

Ye Xianggao glanced at Wang An suddenly. He didn't expect Wang An to say that Zhang Gui was a blessing in disguise, so he sighed and said, "Forget it, it's a good thing for your Majesty to have an eldest son, and it's a good thing for the country. He's doing meritorious service. Just be proud."

  Speaking, Ye Xianggao asked: "Your Majesty sent the old inner minister here, did you have an oral order to reward him?"

Wang An said with a smile: "Everything can't be hidden from Yuanfu! Your Majesty issued an oral decree and drafted an edict based on the old practice of the temple. Because the eldest son of the emperor came out, Zhang Guoji was named Taikang Bo, and Zhang Gui was the governor of the Chinese Army. Zhang Gui has made meritorious service in saving the emperor's heir, and he was added as the left governor of the Chinese army's governor's mansion, and he gave him a piece of Zhuangtian."

  Ye Xianggao said: "This is not considered a violation of the system, the cabinet will follow the order."

"Although this is the case, now this uncle of the country, please ask the foreign court (civilian) to keep an eye on it. Our family will tell Yuanfu one more word. Yuanfu must not know that His Majesty committed suicide last night. Zhu Tongmeng is involved."

  Wang An said.

After Ye Xianggao heard this, he was stunned for a while, and thought: "Why did Your Majesty do this, what stimulated him? This is not a good thing, but it has been a year since the Yuan Dynasty, and some things can no longer be done. Now it seems that, We can only try to avoid the Wu Temple incident from happening again."

   "Yuansuke?"

  Wang An saw Ye Xianggao lost his mind, so he called softly.

  Ye Xianggao only nodded after recovering.

  Wang An smiled knowingly and left the cabinet.

  …

   "Yuan Fu sent a set of Song Edition Four Books and Five Classics as a congratulatory gift, and he even said that it was specially for you, Young Master."

  Because Zhang Gui's family has now been promoted to the Earl's Mansion, many dignitaries also came to congratulate him.

  Even Ye Xianggao sent his family to send gifts.

  Xiao Chan brought a set of books to Zhang Gui at this time.

Zhang Gui was taken aback when he heard this, and thought to himself: "This Ye Xianggao suddenly gave me a set of Four Books and Five Classics. The intention is obvious. This is to persuade my relatives to read more books of sages and sages, and do what a gentleman should. But why should I listen to you! Unless, you can save the Ming Dynasty, but history has already proved that you Ye Xianggao can't."

  After Zhang Gui thought so, he ordered: "Xiao Chan, lock the book in the cabinet. Since Yuan Fu said so, you can't show it to others easily."

"good!"

  Xiaochan agreed and went with the book in her arms, and asked by the way: "My lord, is the little prince born by your mother good-looking?"

   "Can you not look good, both empresses are so good-looking, silly girl!"

   Zhang Gui replied.

"Too!"

  Xiao Chan smiled.

   Zhang Gui was picked up by Wei Zhongxian not long after, and he saw a doctor for Ke Shi.

   "There is uncle Lao Guo."

  Wei Zhongxian had already brought Mrs. Ke out of Da Nei at this time, and after seeing Zhang Gui coming, he also took the initiative to welcome Zhang Gui in.

   After Zhang Gui and Ke Shi exchanged salutes, they directly asked Ke Shi: "How long has Ma'am been suffering from this headache?"

  Keshi replied: "It has been like this since entering the palace for a year."

  Wei Zhongxian also said at this time: "To be honest, our family also has the same symptoms, but it's not as serious as my wife's."

   Zhang Gui realized something after hearing this, and asked, "Does Your Majesty have it too?"

  Wei Zhongxian glanced at Ke Shi.

  Ke stood up immediately, and said anxiously: "There are also! Uncle Guo means that this is a disease passed on from others?"

   "Or is there some conspiracy in it?"

  Wei Zhongxian followed up with a question, and then said: "Now there are rumors that the emperor's heir was born prematurely, and it was the madam who did it because she hated the queen. Our family feels that it is not good."

Zhang Gui said solemnly: "Eunuch Wei is worrying too much! This has nothing to do with the conspiracy. It should be related to the cinnabar used in the palace city, especially the newly built buildings. The newly painted cinnabar will emit some poisonous gas. Now Many of the buildings in Ouchi have only recently been renovated, so it must be the time when the poisonous gas is at its peak."

As he said that, Zhang Gui said again: "You have to tell Your Majesty about this, so that His Majesty, the empress, and the emperor's heirs have to temporarily move to live in another garden outside the palace. In addition, Madam should not stay in the palace for a year or two. Stay here, so the disease will recover naturally."

   "Poisonous gas?"

  Ke Shi was a little surprised and said: "Uncle Guo's words, I'm afraid the emperor won't believe it."

  Wei Zhongxian also said: "That's right, the key point is that the courtiers won't agree. They are already dissatisfied with the emperor's occasional visit to Xiyuan, let alone staying in the other garden outside the palace."

Zhang Guidao: "I still have to tell your Majesty about this matter. This matter is related to my ancestral temple and society in Ming Dynasty. At least the emperor's heir is so young that he can no longer stay in the palace city. He has to live in other gardens and some old halls. The same as before His Majesty took the throne."

  Wei Zhongxian glanced at Keshi.

  Ke Shi said: "Uncle Guo is right, let's tell the emperor."

  Wei Zhongxian nodded and said, "I will enter the palace right now."

  …

   Tian Qi was discussing with Ye Xiang’s senior cabinet ministers about the establishment of a crown prince and the allocation of officials in the East Palace. When he saw Wei Zhongxian coming, he asked, “What’s the matter?”

  Wei Zhongxian came to Tianqi's side, whispering in his ear.

   Tianqi asked: "Is this really the case?"

  Wei Zhongxian said: "If you go back to the emperor, that's what Uncle Guo said."

   After hearing this, Tian Qi said: "Send him!"

When Ye Xianggao heard Wei Zhongxian mention the word "Uncle Guo", he couldn't help but frowned, thinking: "Why did Zhang Gui hook up with the **** again? He didn't understand the congratulatory gift I gave you." mean?"

  After Ye Xianggao thought so, he couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, I don't know what Uncle Guo said, can you tell the ministers, and the envoys are not confused?"
