Chapter 681 Widow Terminator (Two in One)

Lin Yue didn't shy away from Miaotong's gaze, and threw the villain's two legs into the sky. The bird screamed "Ahhh", and flapped its wings and flew to the south.

"You are crazy, that is the emperor's pet, if anyone in the palace sees it, they will be beheaded." Miao Tong was almost scared to death by him.

The emperor's pet? Um.

Lin Yue said: "I read in the history books that there are jokes about flying pigeons passing on letters, so I want to try the effect of parrots passing on letters."

Miaotong remembered that she had indeed seen a note tied to the parrot's leg just now.

What did he think of passing the letter with the emperor's parrot?

"Pass the book? To whom?"

"My family is far away in the south." Lin Yue blinked and said sincerely.

Miaotong couldn't understand what kind of operation it was: "How could it know where your family is?"

"This bird is very spiritual, and it will definitely be found."

Of course, Lin Yue would not tell her that when they parted ways with Bei Zhai and Ding Baiying, they asked him how to contact him in the future. His answer was that after the two settled down in Hangzhou, they only needed to stick a black pole on the roof of the house where they lived. Oil-paper umbrella, he can find them.

From Beijing to Hangzhou, it would take more than a week and two weeks to travel day and night on horseback, and it would take more time to travel by water. However, compared with official mail, he has a faster way to communicate by letter—a parrot to send a letter or send a message.

Or it is a stroke of genius to throw the big villain into the portable space and bring it to the world of "Embroidered Spring Knife".

"Sir, have you never thought that it would be in danger? If it is really going to be caught and eaten by the falcons in the sky, after the national funeral is over, what should the empress do if she asks you for a pet?"

"Don't worry, it's smart, it won't die."

Lin Yue did not lie to her on this point, the pets rewarded by the system can be reborn after death in the film and television world, so he threatened to peel and pluck the hair and boil the soup a hundred times, the bird finally gave in and accepted the post of delivery. To Hangzhou.

Miao Tong sighed heavily, she was getting more and more unpredictable about this cheap husband-in-law.

On weekdays, he writes and draws pictures, sings with her, and single-handedly rescued her from Ding Baiying's hands. Now he can make cakes, biscuits and other foods that she has never seen before. He is really a man. An eunuch who couldn't support himself and was forced to go to the palace to make a living?

He really surprised her too much.

Miaoxuan said that he was just a vulgar and dirty little eunuch, or Wei Xie's running dog, and he was not worthy of her at all, but as time went by, she felt more and more that even if she had no experience in the Jiaofang Division, she could marry such a man , that is Sansei's luck.

Well, it would be nice if he wasn't...

At the same time that this thought flashed in her mind, she thought of Yan Yanbin who had privately decided to live in Nuanxiang Pavilion for the rest of her life, and pain and intolerance flashed across her brows.

...

the next day.

Lin Yue left the West Palace with fifty taels of silver, and the eunuch on duty at the gate escorted him to the gate of the courtyard.

This shows how strict the hierarchy in the palace is - he is with the empress, and his status is a bit higher than the people around the concubine.

To say that this pure concubine, Duan Shi, is also a beauty, compared with Zhang Yan's delicate and refined, she has a sickly and weak beauty. Although Wei Zhongxian and Hakka avoided the poisonous hands because he was never pregnant, if the historical records are correct, Chongzhen would have passed away due to illness in the second year, which is a pitiful person.

Last night he stayed in the West Palace and did not leave. He used hypnosis in the second half of the night to get a general understanding of Duan's condition. Although he is not a doctor, it is certain that this 22-year-old girl is depressed because she has not been able to conceive. Gossip in the palace and Zhu Youxiao's estrangement made him suffer from depression, or look sick.

With the current technology of imperial physicians, there is basically no solution for heart disease, and they can only use some calming and soothing prescriptions, such as Suanzaoren Decoction, Tianwang Buxin Pill and so on.

As the saying goes, medicine is three-point poisonous. She takes this stuff every day, and her already weak body can't bear it.

In the morning, he asked her to stop the medicine in a slightly tough tone, and if she couldn't sleep again, she could ask the eunuch on duty to go to Kunning Palace or Dongcheng to find him.

Concubine Chun didn't care about his tone and nodded in agreement.

Or say that the woman who fell out of favor in the harem has not yet gained power and the eunuch has a high status, so facing him, how about facing Wei Zhongxian and the Ke family?

Listening to the mourning bell for Xi Zong from afar, Lin Yue thought as he walked, the guy who can't even protect his own woman, go at ease, your wife and I will take care of him, your son... well, he has no son.

But then again.

Jin'er, Zhang Yan, Concubine Chun, Ding Baiying, if Yan Yanbin also died...

What do you call yourself? Widow Terminator?

at the same time.

In a small courtyard in the south of Hangzhou City, Beizhai looked at the green-haired parrot on the branch of the osmanthus tree with a ghostly expression on his face.

"Ah, are you Hokusai?"

"Ah, who is Ding Baiying?"

A parrot that can call her and Ding Baiying's name, is it just a parrot?

"I am the messenger, ah, the messenger, Zhou Tai's messenger."

If a person talks like this, she will dislike the wordy, but the bird is different.

Ding Baiying was awakened by the sound outside, and when she came out of the house with a knife, Beizhai untied the red rope on its feet and took down the letter.

"Is it from Zhou Tai?"

Ding Baiying glanced at the miraculous messenger, then turned her attention to the letter in Bei Zhai's hand.

"right."

"What did you write?"

"The emperor is dead..."

The emperor died? Both of them were stunned. Although they knew that Xi Zong's body was getting worse day by day, they didn't expect to die so soon. They chatted a few days ago and said that they could survive until the beginning of winter, but they didn't survive the 15th day of August.

"What about the back?"

"Shen Lian and Yin Cheng are fine, and there is no danger of their lives for the time being; Wei Zhongxian and King Xin seem to have reached a cooperative relationship. After the emperor is buried, the latter will choose an auspicious day to ascend the throne;"

"Then what?"

"Gone."

Ding Baiying and Bei Zhai looked at me and I looked at you, not knowing what to say.

Sure enough, King Xin compromised with Wei Zhongxian in order to ascend to the throne.

"I'll write a reply to Zhou Tai, see if there is anything you want to say."

Ding Baiying hesitated for a moment, then shook her head.

...

Zhu Youxiao passed away, and the whole capital was mourning, except for Eunuch Lin, who happily wandered between the Kunning Palace and the West Palace, and ate tofu from the two imperial widows when he was free, adding some green to Zhu Youxiao's head.

In the next few days, he fell in love with the concubine Li Shi again. At this time, Li Shi was working as a palace maid in West Fifth because of offending Wei Zhongxian.

He didn't do anything, and he bought the emaciated concubine Cheng with a box of biscuits. Because of the relationship between Wei Zhongxian and the Ke family, all the eunuchs and maids in the palace dared not get too close to her, and he was the only one, Kun Ning. Eunuch Lin from the palace doesn't care about her past.

Wei Zhongxian was so busy as the eunuch Bingbi, the supervisor of ceremonies, that he had no time to talk to him, and Zhao Jingzhong was still on his way back to Beijing, so during this time he could make small moves as much as he wanted.

On August 24th, Zhu Youjian ascended the throne, honoring the former queen Zhang Yan as Queen Yi'an. Amnesty was announced the next day, and Shen Lian and Yin Cheng returned to Jinyiwei North Town Fusi to continue their errands, but the former was demoted to the general banner.

Three days later, at midnight, in the east of the city, Xin Wangfu.

Ever since Zhu Youxiao passed away and Zhu Youjian moved to the Forbidden City, Xinwang Mansion has been vacant.

But tonight's Prince Xin's Mansion is not like the previous days where there are only servants who watch the night and no residents of the main house.

Zhu Youjian sat behind the wooden case in the study with closed eyes and rested his mind. His former entourage led a dozen people to wait downstairs.

I don't know how long it has passed, and with a gust of cool wind, there is a masked man beside the open window.

Zhu Youjian opened his eyes: "I don't understand. You are willing to be a thief when you have an official position, and you open the window every time when you have the main entrance. Why?"

It can be seen that this is not the first time the two have met in Prince Xin's Mansion.

"Grand officials and rich salary are all foreign things to me." Lin Yue took off the black cloth covering his face, revealing the frightening face behind: "What I want is the destruction of the eunuchs and the death of Wei Zhongxian."

"The pardon of Shen Lian and Xiaoqi Yincheng, a hundred households of Jinyiwei, has already made Wei Zhongxian suspicious, and the destruction of the eunuch party should not be rushed." Zhu Youjian said: "Empress Yi'an reminded me not to eat the food in the palace yesterday, and asked me to pay attention. For the defense of the Qing Palace, try not to go to other palaces if there is no important matter, since you are not in the palace, naturally you cannot understand the situation I am in."

Lin Yue didn't pick up his words and said something off topic.

"I? It seems that you have adapted to being an emperor."

Zhu Youjian frowned when he said this, a little displeased: "You asked me to come to Xinwang's mansion to meet you, maybe it's just to complain."

Lin Yue said, "How do you plan to deal with Wei Xie?"

Zhu Youjian thought for a while and said: "From the outside to the inside, peel off the cocoon layer by layer, weaken the eunuch's strength, and then strike with thunder."

"how much time is required?"

"It can be as fast as a few months, and as slow as a year."

"Too slow."

"Is this still slow?"

In his opinion, Wei Zhongxian has controlled the government for several years, and his relationship with the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty is deeply intertwined.

Lin Yue said: "I have a plan to fix the world."

Zhu Youjian stood up and said, "What plan?"

"Killing tigers and wolves borrowing swords to kill people."

Lin Yue said: "Some time ago, there were two hot topics of discussion among the people in the city. One was that the emperor was in poor health and might not last long. His Royal Highness Xin Wang was the preferred successor. The other was that Wei Zhongxian deposed his subordinates. Can be Lin San."

"I know about this." Others may have doubts about this matter, but Zhu Youjian is very clear that the reason why Wei Zhongxian deposed Lin San was to avoid variables in his ascension to the throne. To be honest, he was just trying to find a suitable excuse to kill Lin San, the guy who made trouble for him.

"Do you want to get rid of him?"

Zhu Youjian nodded.

"No." Lin Yue said: "First of all, Lin San is very capable, and he can be used against Wei Zhongxian to reach a million troops. Secondly, Empress Yi'an has helped you a lot in your enthronement. If you move her side now People, I am afraid that they will get a bad name of bullying the widow and sister-in-law. In the end, using Lin San can give encouragement to those court officials who are afraid of Wei Xun's fierce reputation and dare not act rashly, encouraging them to stand up and liquidate the eunuch party and enhance His Majesty's prestige. "

"What you said makes sense." Zhu Youjian was moved: "However, how can I ensure that this Lin San will not turn against the water? What if he still has illusions about Wei Zhongxian, or demotes Lin San to go to the warehouse to inspect the liquidation materials? Is this a bitter trick?"

Not to mention, Zhu Youjian is quite careful.

Lin Yue said with a smile: "Your Majesty is very worried, but there is no need for His Majesty to manipulate this matter at all. Empress Yi'an has a sworn feud with Wei Xie and the Ke family. If she comes forward to communicate with Lin San, Your Majesty will be safe." Sitting behind the scenes, even if things change, you can control the situation and stabilize the situation, right? What we have to do is not to uproot the eunuchs with thunderous means, but to remove Wei Zhongxian's minions one by one. As long as we deal with the people involved Take care of Wei Zhongxian's feelings from time to time, Your Majesty will be able to have both sides, and take the chestnut out of the fire."

"Wonderful, wonderful."

Zhu Youjian was overjoyed. If you want to talk about Zhou Tai, there are few people who can play tricks like him.

"In your opinion, where should we start to weaken the eunuch's power?"

Lin Yue said: "In the first battle, we must achieve results to strengthen the court, but we can't force Wei Yangou to jump over the wall in a hurry. What does your majesty think of the Ke family?"

"Keshi?"

In the Ming Dynasty, except the favored and high-ranking eunuchs who could live in the palace, the rest lived outside the palace or rented or bought houses. These people had no way to cook in the palace and could only carry rations with them. Fortunately, in winter, let alone hot meals, you might not even be able to drink hot water. This is why it is normal for Lin Yue to carry cakes in food boxes with him.

The court ladies are different, because they live in the palace for a long time, they can light a fire and cook in the residence, so some eunuchs ask the court ladies who are close to each other to warm the meals. In the future, it became common practice for court ladies and eunuchs to form pair food couples, and some court ladies would even feel inferior because they could not find a match food eunuch.

The Hakka family and Wei Zhongxian are in the relationship of eating husband and wife. Nominally, she is Xi Zong Zhu Youxiao's nurse, but there are rumors that she was enchanting and charming when she was young, and she became Zhu Youxiao's sexual enlightenment teacher after she was young. The important members of the cabinet wrote several times to ask Keshi to move out of the harem, but Zhu Youxiao prevaricated them back with various excuses.

Therefore, Wei Zhongxian can have today, and the Hakka family has contributed a lot.

"Your Majesty, the food in the palace is not delicious."

Lin Yue said something that sounded thoughtless, but Zhu Youjian's face changed when he heard it.

There is a Shangshan supervisor in the palace, and tributes from all over the country are continuously transported to the capital. Do you want to eat anything? However, no matter how delicious the food was, Zhu Youjian didn't dare to move it. He was afraid of being poisoned to death by the people of the Hakka family. Every day he ate food made by Empress Zhou himself.

"Okay, it's Ke Shi."

Lin Yue's words made him make up his mind to weaken Wei Zhongxian's strength from the Ke family first.

"But I don't understand, you asked me to persuade Empress Yi'an to come forward, how could my sister-in-law have something to do with the Ke family?"

"Of course Empress Yi'an has nothing to do with the Ke family."

Zhu Youjian was taken aback by what he said.

"But I can pass her the knife." Lin Yue said something, just in time for the moon in the sky to push away the dark clouds, and the brilliance spilled on his face through the window, giving him a thrilling and strange feeling.

After a long time, Zhu Youjian came back to his senses: "You are more sinister than I thought."

Lin Yue did not respond to his emotion: "If Your Majesty has nothing to say, I should leave."

Zhu Youxiao said, "Beizhai...is she alright?"

"What does His Majesty think?"

"..." Zhu Youxiao paused for a moment: "Ding Baiying is not dead, is she?"

Lin Yue didn't answer this question, and jumped out with his hands on the window sill. After a few ups and downs, he disappeared into the vast night.

Zhu Youxiao picked up the cup on the desk, only to find that the tea was cold.

To achieve great things, there must be sacrifices. If God gives him another chance, he will still make the same choice.

PS: I have a cold and low fever, and joint pain all over my body. I typed more than 4,000 words by force. I really can't bear it. Please understand.
