Birds tweeted, the sun rises, and it's a new day.
In front of the two graves on the outskirts of Beijing, a couple of young men and women greeted us.
Both of them are dressed in plain clothes. The young man tied his hair with a white headband, while the young girl put a white flower on her sideburn. Both of them carried white candle paper money and other things in their hands. They obviously came to worship.
These two people are Lan Mengshi and Lan Mengzheng.
The two took out the white candle incense, tribute and paper money. After lighting them, they knelt down in front of two tombs. One of the two tombs was a burial mound built for their uncle General Xuanwei, and the other was a joint burial where the ashes of their parents were buried tomb.
The siblings inserted incense sticks, knocked their heads at the grave again, and then said together: "Father, mother, uncle, Zhang thief has been sent to prison, and your majesty has rehabilitated you!"
Lan Mengshi looked at the two new tombs in front of her, choked and said, "Daddy, mother, uncle, have you seen it? My brother and I are doing well now. Your majesty is a Mingjun. My brother is now in the Yulin Army. Your Majesty said that he should be the commander of the Dragon Guards, and tomorrow his brother will follow Commander Chen to train soldiers."
Lan Mengzheng's eye circles were red, and he said, "My sister is right. Your Majesty takes me seriously. He also said that he will give me the entire Dragon Guards for training... By the way, I have read a lot of military books recently, and now I am training soldiers. There is already some experience in one, you can rest assured, the child will be loyal to your majesty, you are alive in the sky, and bless your majesty and your mother, and bless you."
Lan Mengshi kowtowed again, and smiled with tears: "Brother is right, father, mother, uncle, you have spirits in the sky, bless your majesty and your mother, and bless the prosperity of Qi, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and there will be no corruption. Official!"
The siblings kowtowed a few more heads, and talked for a long time before the grave before leaving this place.
When I went back, my sister was sitting in the carriage, and my brother was sitting in front to drive the car.
Looking at his younger brother's becoming more and more determined in the past two months, Lan Mengshi warned: "Tomorrow you must do a good job with your Majesty, and you can't forget your form just because you become the leader. You must know that we have the present day. All thanks to your majesty and the empress."
Lan Mengzheng did not look back, only nodded and said, "Sister, I know." Your Majesty handed over the preparation of the Dragon Guards to the academician of the Hanlin Academy a year ago. As a result, it has been two or three months now, so Lin Fuzheng Only forty people have been enlisted. Although he is now a leader, he will have to enlist himself tomorrow.
However, Lan Mengzheng did not complain, but was full of enthusiasm. He and his sister could avenge and have a good life now. It was all a gift from your majesty and his wife. He must work hard to repay his majesty and his wife.
Thinking about this, Lan Mengzheng drove the car faster, and planned to go back soon and discuss how to recruit troops tomorrow.
It was just that when he entered the city, he had to slow down because many people gathered at the gate of the city. The most striking thing was a man and a woman walking in the middle. Both of them were wearing grey cloth clothes with hands. The feet were all locked in shackles, looking very embarrassed. Being escorted out of the city gate by two officials.
Because of the shackles, they walked a bit slowly, and the iron chains on their bodies made a movement every step they took, causing the people passing by nearby to cast their eyes on them.
"What kind of criminal is that?"
"I'm going to exile to the border. I heard that the man was Zhang Thief's protégé. He had done a lot of bad things for Zhang Thief before. He was supposed to be beheaded. Later, he gave out some evidence of Zhang Thief's crimes before changing the sentence. "
"Who is that woman? Hiss, with such a big scar on her face, so much of her face is ruined."
Lan Mengzheng's carriage stopped at the gate of the city. Waiting to enter the city, she took a second look. His sister opened the carriage curtain and saw the two men and said, "That's... Zhao Chang!"
Lan Mengzheng nodded, Lan Mengshi glanced at the woman who was escorted out of the city with Zhao Chang, and said in surprise: "This is the woman who was born exactly like the empress? Her face..."
Lan Mengzheng whispered: "She scratched her face."
What Lan Mengzheng said, Lan Mengshi also understood. She had experienced family destruction and death, and with the experience of the past few months, she was no longer the naive and ignorant daughter of a county magistrate. She has no doubt about what her brother said, because the woman gave birth to a face so similar to the concubine empress, and she has such an identity. If she does not disfigure herself, no one will allow her to live, it is the heart of your majesty and the concubine empress. Shan, if she wants to save her life, those courtiers who are dedicated to assisting His Majesty will also secretly kill her. Now that the woman had disfigured herself, she seemed clever, decisive, and ruthless.
Thinking of this, Lan Mengshi couldn't help but admire the woman twice, but for this kind of woman who helped her abuse, even almost harmed the empress and her majesty, her hatred far exceeded her appreciation after all.
The carriage in front had entered the city, and the carriage of the Lan family siblings moved again.
Lan Mengzheng drove the carriage into the city, but thought about other things with all his heart. He just saw Zhao Chang's embarrassed appearance, and remembered the scene when he jumped down the dry well and followed the secret road to chase the assassin that night in Wangcheng Mountain.
Prime Minister Zhang was injured, and people like him were not good at hiding, and their whereabouts were leaked by the blood flowing along the way. Therefore, he was the first to be arrested, and the assassins who protected him were also wiped out by him with the Habayashi Army. At that time, Lan Mengzheng did not return directly to his life. Instead, he led a team of men and horses to chase out along the secret road. Sure enough, he ran into another group of assassins. They were all dressed in unremarkable gray commoners. Among the strong and capable guys, one of them has a sturdy back and a torch-eyed look. He is obviously the leader of the group of assassins. Lan Mengzheng carried a long sword and fought the man a few times, and the tiger’s mouth was slightly numb by the opponent’s strength. Finally, the man escaped.
Later, Lan Mengzheng learned that the man was a border general, Sun Buping, who was the other person who had conspired to rebel with Prime Minister Zhang. When General Yuan led troops to encircle and suppress, Sun Buping abandoned his remaining subordinates and took hundreds of people to escape, unexpectedly ran to Wangcheng Mountain.
Now that the wanted warrant has been issued, but I don't know when the traitor Sun Buping will be caught
However, it is useless to think more about it now, and the most important thing is to prepare for the establishment of the Dragon Guards first.
Thinking of this, Lan Mengzheng's eyes were firm, and the horse slammed his whip, dragged the carriage, and ran on the wide road in the city.
And at this time, today's morning dynasty is also over.
Baiguan tremblingly waited for His Majesty to leave before daring to take a step.
Since the dismissal of Prime Minister Zhang, the situation in North Korea has been completely reversed. Many courtiers who had previously stood on Prime Minister Zhang’s side were removed and convicted. The original post of Yushi was removed and the Supervision Department was established. The officials in the court today are either the Hanlin Academy, which has been neutral before, or the General Yuan’s faction who has served his Majesty early, or those who have been under Prime Minister Zhang’s command but have been suppressed by Prime Minister Zhang’s descendants at the bottom. people.
The clouds above their heads are gone, and the positions that have not been moved in more than ten years are also mentioned. It is reasonable to say that these people should be overjoyed, but the fact is that they are trembling every day, for fear of when they will wear black hats on their heads. That's it, so they were conscientious when handling errands and didn't dare to make the slightest difference. As for the bribery and bribery like Prime Minister Zhang, they didn't even dare to even think about it. Didn't they see the people from the Supervision Department still beating? Maybe someday someone who doesn't pay attention will be caught by someone from the Supervision Department. Not only will the official position be gone, but all the property will be checked.
After finally getting rid of the suppression of Prime Minister Zhang, and finally upgrading their ranks, they don't want to go back to the old days.
The people in the Imperial Academy were also greatly relieved after learning that His Majesty was about to start the course in advance.
His Majesty handed over the preparation of the Dragon Guards to Lin Fuzheng a year ago, but the people in the Hanlin Academy weren't the materials for that task. Lin Fuzheng worked so hard to do it, but the matter was in a mess. The matter was transferred to a newly-rising Xiu Lan Mengzheng in the Yu Lin army, not only did not hesitate, but raised his heart even higher.
It's all right now. Your Majesty wants to open the department in advance. The people of the Hanlin Academy can finally come in handy. Finally, there is no need to worry about the official hat on the head being removed. Lin Fu is walking in the wind when he is walking down.
During the palace exam, he heard that His Majesty was about to put all the candidates into the harem, so scared that even the beard almost escaped for his life. This is something to say.
What are the courtiers in the court thinking? Your Majesty has no time to take care of him, and he is too lazy to take care of him. He is now being held by Daru Lin to do his homework!
Since determined to be Emperor Ming, His Majesty has found himself getting busier and busier. He used to be able to return to Feiluan Palace before dark, but now he can't even have dinner with his concubine.
But soon, he didn't even have time to miss his beloved concubine. While rubbing the tooth marks on his fingers, he concentrated and listened carefully to Lin Daru's lecture.
And Yao Yanyan, who was missed by her Majesty, had already taken Gu Zhaorong's family into the palace at this time.
The mother and son were indeed Gu Zhaorong's mother and brother. Gu Zhaorong's mother fainted on the side of the road that day. After being sent to the hospital, it was His Majesty's guard who helped pay for the consultation and settled the two.
It has been more than half a year since Gu Zhaorong entered the palace. Because of the long distance, he only passed three letters with his family. This time seeing his family in person, he was surprised and delighted and couldn't help but shed tears.
Yao Yanyan sat aside, looking at the scene of them hugging each other, she couldn't help being a little envious. Her biological father was not a good thing. Her mother died not long after being sold...
But she has a majesty now! Thinking of your Majesty, the sadness that Yao Yanyan had just raised was immediately gone.
Gu Zhaorong asked them why they suddenly came to the capital without giving her a letter in advance. If Gu Zhaorong knew that his mother and brother were coming, he would definitely not let them fall into the streets.
Mentioning this matter, Gu Zhaorong's brother hesitated to glance at Yao Yanyan who was sitting in the high seat, and then said: "The plague broke out in our hometown, and we had no choice but to escape."
Is there a plague in Changzhou? How did she and your majesty not know in the last life
Yao Yanyan's first reaction when she heard this was that her majesty's small vault would no longer be able to keep it.
