As the Zuo Prime Minister of the Holy Han Empire, Zhang Kuan naturally had more concerns. Even if the emperor was assassinated or deliberately murdered, no one should know about it. Otherwise, it would damage the country and the emperor's image, and it would be directly naked.
The civil and military officials of the court were slapped in the face.
Regardless of the truth, he must let people know that the emperor just accidentally fell into the water. A trivial matter must not cause a big fight, nor give anyone the opportunity to interfere in the government. Thinking of this, Zhang Kuan suddenly said: "Immediately
It is announced that the Nineth Emperor's younger brother will enter the palace."
Empress Dowager Zhang hurriedly asked: "Why do you want to announce Zichi to the palace?"
Zhang Kuan said: "Zi Chi is guarding your majesty day and night, and no one else is allowed to come near."
Empress Dowager Zhang then thought of something and her face turned pale. Zhang Kuan also sighed and said in a low voice: "If it weren't for the old seventh son to move, how could it be that old ninth son Chi would take care of him day and night. Although Zichi is only ten years old,
He is only three years old, but as a member of the royal family, he should understand that the stakes are very high at this time."
"Yeah." Queen Mother Zhang nodded sharply.
Zhang Kuan summoned Li Canglan and asked about the situation. Li Canglan said that he had controlled everyone, and sent people to search for the boatman who jumped into the lake, and also sent people to arrest all the family members of the parties involved. Although Zhang Kuan felt that it was inappropriate to go into such a big fight, but
Now he could only believe Li Canglan and warned: "No information in the palace should be leaked, otherwise he will be killed without mercy."
"Here." Li Canglan said seriously, and then added: "It's time to rectify the imperial guards."
Zhang Kuan immediately thought that Li Canglan might want to take advantage of the opportunity to annex the imperial guards, so he shook his head and said: "This is a serious matter, and we must not rashly touch the nobles and treat them like this."
Li Canglan smiled slightly and said, "I have been under custody for a long time."
Zhang Kuan frowned deeply.
After a while, Uncle Dushan also hurriedly came with his people, and Zhang Kuan immediately led his people to greet him. The two talked briefly for a while, and Uncle Dushan Ye Xiangdong also knew what happened before and after, and comforted him: "Your Majesty, you are a good person and a good person.
And if you live a long life, nothing will happen to you this time." He turned around and said again: "Canglan, call the Sicheng of Wentian Academy."
"Here."
The two then walked into the Qinghua Palace, and soon came to the emperor's bed. However, they first saw Empress Dowager Zhang standing in front of the emperor, saying expressionlessly: "Your Majesty needs to rest, you will go on first." Dong on the side.
The imperial doctor nodded, Du Shanbo and Zhang Kuan looked at each other, except for the inner room, they came to the outer living room, and they both smiled bitterly.
After driving away the two men, Queen Mother Zhang sat firmly in front of her son and stared at the Great Emperor motionlessly. Like all mothers who care about their sons, there was no one else in her eyes.
Everyone knows that Empress Dowager Zhang is illiterate, but she is only thirty-nine years old this year. She was only fourteen when she gave birth to the great virtuous emperor Xuanyuan Zixiao. She cared more about her first son than anyone else.
The Imperial Palace of the Holy Han Dynasty has a requirement that the children of concubines must be raised by concubines of a lower level, so the princes have three mothers. One is the queen, the lord of the sixth palace, who is the queen mother; the second is the biological mother, who is the superior mother; and the third is the queen.
Adoptive mother, mother.
However, Emperor Taiqian doted on Concubine Zhang, and when Xuanyuan Zixiao was young, she gave her to a young talent to raise. The queen died of illness, and Queen Zhang became the Lord of the Sixth Palace, doting on her son even more. Only then did Xuanyuan Zixiao have the opportunity to compete for the throne.
Chance.
Although the Empress Dowager Zhang was hindered by her son's fight for the throne several times, Emperor Taiqian doted on him and did not regard her as old and depraved. In fact, the Empress Dowager Zhang is in her prime now, exuding the unique charm of a mature woman.
, coupled with her talent for beauty, it’s no wonder that Li Canglan was also fascinated by her.
Empress Dowager Zhang is good to others, but she hates Du Shanbo's family extremely. He also knows that he cannot offend him at this time, so he ignores him. Although he ignores the general situation and does not understand the overall situation, everyone in the civil and military circles of the dynasty knows the character of Empress Dowager Zhang.
, but I don’t think so.
Du Shanbo made an agreement with Zhang Kuan outside the house that the incident of Emperor Dade falling into the water would not be publicized and no news would be spread outside the palace. He also asked Li Canglan to strengthen the management of the imperial army and asked He Fu, the eunuch in charge of the harem, to strictly supervise the maids and eunuchs. Li Canglan
please
The families of the imperial guards were investigated, but these fifty or so imperial guards involved most of the nobles in Longdu City. How could Uncle Dushan offend them, so he ordered: "Withdraw the imperial guards from outside, and only investigate from within.
We must find the boatman."
"Here."
Du Shanbo thought for a while and said: "The guards said that when they saw Chunxi standing behind the emperor, they saw the emperor falling into the water. This Chunxi... I'm afraid he is also suspicious."
Zhang Kuan said hurriedly: "Chunxi is aware of the suspicion. He has a clean family background and has been with the emperor since he was five years old. His loyalty can absolutely be guaranteed."
"Knowing people knows their faces but not their hearts." Du Shanbo said, "Canglan, please invite Chunxi to ask questions. This matter must be investigated to the end. The emperor cannot be humiliated for no reason."
"Here."
Zhang Kuan sighed in his heart, it seemed that the eunuch Chunxi's life was in danger.
The Sicheng of Wentianyuan also hurried over at this time. Du Shanbo and the other two hurriedly asked about the recent celestial phenomena. The Sicheng looked embarrassed and was unwilling to say more. Du Shanbo asked anxiously: "What is the secret?"
Zhang Kuan also said: "Is there anything you can't say?"
Wentian Yuan Si Cheng Yuan De hesitated for a long time. He paced back and forth, looked at the pouring rain outside, sighed, and said in his heart: "After today, there will no longer be a place for me, Yuan De, to stand in Longdu. That's all, that's all, leaking the secret."
, it seems that I don’t have much time left, so I might as well take advantage of this time to travel around the mountains and rivers, find a good disciple, and teach him everything I have learned in my life.”
Du Shanbo said: "Fortune teller, aren't you the number one divine divination? Do you know the fate of the country these days?"
Yuan De smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty must have encountered something unexpected."
"Ah?" The two of them were shocked.
Yuan De and Yuan Sicheng added: "I have been observing the sky at night recently and found that the companion star on one side of the Emperor Star is shining brightly, causing the Ziwei Emperor Star to dim. This is a strange phenomenon where the companion star shines brightly on the main star. This kind of strange star phenomenon has not been seen for a hundred years.
Commander, Prime Minister, if the companion star continues to shine, the emperor star will become weaker and weaker.
It rained heavily and the Emperor's Star covered it up, but the minister spent all his efforts to solve the problem for the Holy Han, and unexpectedly discovered that this hexagram was the hexagram of Kun Enze Lin in the 2040 Bagua. Therefore, he concluded that His Majesty must have suffered something.
What happened? But Your Majesty is probably fine. He was just frightened and fell ill."
"Yuan Sicheng, what is the hexagram of Kun En Ze Lin, why don't I know it?" Zhang Kuan asked hurriedly. He also read poetry and books and studied hundreds of schools of thought, and he knew a little bit about Zhou Yi's calculations, but he
But I only know the sixty-four hexagrams, I have never heard of the two thousand and forty hexagrams, and I don’t even know what Kun En Ze Lin means.
Although Du Shanbo was a martial artist, he was also quite knowledgeable in arts and sciences. After listening to Yuan De's words, he felt that he was capable, so he asked: "In the sixty-four hexagrams, where does Kun Enze Lin come from?"
