Looking at his father, Li Xi didn't know what his father meant. However, after so many years, his father had always been a very capable person in his eyes. He had never made a wrong decision.
"Then father, will there be any problems with Xu Wenchang?" Li Xi looked at his father and asked hesitantly.
Glancing at his son, Li Zhonghang smiled and said, "This matter has never been on Xu Wenchang. We only need him to pass the message to His Majesty.
The first person I looked for was Zhang Jing, but Zhang Jing has left the capital. "
"Right now, Xu Wenchang is just replacing Zhang Jing. In fact, as long as we pass the message to His Majesty, we won't be able to decide the rest."
Li Xi nodded. Although he was very worried, he didn't choose to say it out loud.
He had always believed in his father's words.
Although it was a risk this time, he was still willing to believe in his father.
Forbidden City, Wenhua Palace.
Zhu Yijun looked at Wang Shen from the Office of the Grand Herald in front of him and asked, "You said that the two Wala people want to see me?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, yes!" Wang Shen replied.
Ever since the Wala people arrived in the capital, they had always wanted to see Zhu Yijun. However, Zhu Yijun wasn't in the mood to pay attention to them.
Some time ago, he had figured out his attitude towards the Wala people and wanted to see them. However, there were too many things to do and it had been delayed.
"Who is more anxious?" Zhu Yijun thought for a while and asked Zhao Shen.
"Your Majesty, it is Hwang Tae-gil's son, Talic. He has already asked me to see Your Majesty three times."
Speaking of this, Wang Shen felt somewhat helpless. He had already spoken to the court several times, but the Emperor had never replied.
If the Emperor hadn't called him here today, Wang Shen would have even begun to suspect that the Emperor didn't even know about his report.
Zhu Yijun nodded. Hwang Tae-gil's son, Talic?
This was in line with what he had guessed.
After some thought, Zhu Yijun asked, "How strong is the pulling force?"
"Your Majesty, Tualik is 32 years old this year!" Wang Shen said.
Zhu Yijun was slightly stunned. Didn't that mean that Lalik was the same age as Sanniangzi?
How old is the Hwang Tae-gil that Sanniangzi is going to marry?
Glancing at Wang Shen, Zhu Yijun asked, "Do you know how old Hwang Tae-gil is?"
"I know. Hwang Tae-gil has a score of three out of fifty." Wang Shen said without thinking.
Hwang Tae-gil is fifty-three?
On one hand, Zhu Yijun was shocked that Wang Shen, the Chamberlain of Dependencies, was so responsible. On the other hand, Zhu Yijun did not expect Hwang Tae-gil to have grown up so much.
Earlier, Xu Wenchang said that Hwang Tae-gil was ugly. Was it just because he was ugly?
However, Zhu Yijun also knew that this era did not pay much attention to the age gap.
In this era, it was normal for a forty-five year old to marry a twenty-something year old. However, Hwang Tae-gil was old and ugly.
Everyone said that Sanniangzi was not willing to marry. No one would be willing to marry!
As if sensing that Zhu Yijun was interested in this, Wang Shen said, "An Dahan is already 75 years old this year."
"When Sanniangzi married An Dahan, Sanniangzi was 19 years old and An Dahan was already 56 years old.
Sanniangzi is An Dahan's niece, his biological niece. Because of her beauty, Sanniangzi was known as the Flower of the Prairie. "
"It was because of this that An Dahan valued her and married her."
Zhu Yijun was helpless. No matter how he looked at it, Sanniangzi was a complete tragedy!
It was not easy for her to endure until An Dahan died. She also had the strength to resist, so she was ready to resist.
Of course, Hwang Tae-gil did not intend to let Sanniangzi resist. After marrying Sanniangzi, he would successfully ascend to the throne. He would also get his beautiful cousin and a beautiful stepmother.
This was really messy!
"If that's the case, then let's meet!"
Zhu Yijun thought for a while and said, "However, I will meet Mo Rigen of the Vara Qiraji Gute tribe first. Go back and arrange it. I will meet Mo Rigen three days later."
"Yes, Your Majesty. I will go back and arrange it!" Wang Shen immediately heaved a sigh of relief. No matter who the Emperor wanted to meet, it was enough.
These days, he had been annoyed to death. Now, he was finally going to make it.
After Wang Shen left, a smile appeared on Zhu Yijun's face. It was good that the Vara was in chaos. It would save him trouble.
Stretching, Zhu Yijun was about to continue reading the memorials when a eunuch suddenly ran in.
The eunuch suddenly knelt on the ground and said loudly, "Imperial Majesty, great news. Imperial Majesty, great news!"
Zhu Yijun was stunned. There was no war. What was there to be happy about?
Looking at the young eunuch, Zhu Yijun was stunned. Wasn't this guy a eunuch of Kunning Palace?
The eunuch of Kunning Palace was overjoyed. When these two things were connected, there was only one possibility.
Zhu Yijun suddenly stood up from the dragon chair and looked at the eunuch and asked, "Is it the Empress?"
"Replying to Imperial Majesty, the Empress is pregnant. The doctor of the Imperial Academy of Medicine diagnosed the pulse of the Empress. The Empress asked this servant to report the good news to the Imperial Majesty." The eunuch said as he was so excited that he cried.
Zhu Yijun was too lazy to care about the eunuch. He suddenly had a feeling that it was unreal.
There was surprise and worry, but he still rushed out of Wenhua Palace and went directly to Kunning Palace.
At this time, Kunning Palace was really lively. Queen Dowager Li of Palace of Compassionate Peace and Empress Dowager Chen of Palace of Compassionate and Qing were all here. The two of them were holding Empress Wang's hand and talking with a smile. Empress Wang had a shy and happy smile on her face.
Zhu Yijun's concubines were also here. They all looked at Empress Wang with envious smiles.
Seeing Zhu Yijun come in, Queen Dowager Li said with a smile, "You're going to be a father, why are you still so impatient?"
Although she said this, Queen Dowager Li's smile was very bright. After waiting for so many years, she could finally hold a grandson.
This was a big matter for her. Moreover, the Empress was pregnant. If she gave birth to a son, he would be the Crown Prince.
The Empress was pregnant.
This news quickly spread throughout the entire capital, making the capital in the early winter seem to be a lot warmer.
In the cabinet, several ministers were sitting together and resting. There was a charcoal basin in the center.
For some reason, this year's winter seemed to be cold very early. It was just the beginning of winter, but they already needed a charcoal basin.
Recently, the atmosphere in the cabinet was a bit strange. Although everyone was sitting together and resting, the atmosphere was not very warm.
The reason was obviously because of the soldier's silver. The cabinet's Prime Minister supported it, but the cabinet's Second Minister opposed it. This was a contradiction.
The emperor's decree to promote Zhang Siwei's student, Li Zhi, was a clear signal.
There were many people in the imperial court who supported Zhang Siwei, and there was a tendency to suppress Shen Shixing.
However, among the four ministers in the cabinet, Yu Youding and Pan Cheng all supported Shen Shixing. Zhang Siwei felt a little lonely.
Zhang Siwei looked at the four people and said slowly, "Guys, a few days ago, the emperor asked us to discuss the candidates for the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet. Should we report it to the emperor?"
Shen Shixing was naturally impressed by the matter of Hai Rui's entering the Cabinet.
However, the matter of Hai Rui entering the Cabinet was blocked by them, so the matter of the fifth Grand Secretary of the Cabinet was also delayed. The emperor didn't ask, so the cabinet didn't do it. Everyone thought that this matter was over.
They didn't expect that Zhang Siwei would bring up this matter at this time. No one was a fool. Of course, they knew Zhang Siwei's intention.
Zhang Siwei was alone in the Cabinet. He wanted to find a helper, and it was at this critical time.
Shen Shixing was very clear that if they nominated the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet at this time, the emperor was very likely to agree to the candidate recommended by Zhang Siwei.
Thinking of this possibility, Shen Shixing suddenly felt as if he had swallowed a fly.
Although he had already noticed Zhang Siwei's intention, Shen Shixing still had a fluke before. Now, he didn't have any hope at all.
Zhang Siwei was going to completely seize power and install people in the cabinet.
After Zhang Siwei's people were installed, the next step would be to promote the officials.
If he continued to oppose it, he would probably have to resign and go home.
After thinking for a while, Shen Shixing figured out the ins and outs of this matter and also guessed Zhang Siwei's idea.
After all, the emperor had ordered the cabinet to choose a candidate. This was the emperor's order!
Although the emperor didn't say it, it was very likely that he had forgotten it. If no one mentioned it, it would be over.
But now that Zhang Siwei mentioned it, he couldn't pretend that he had forgotten it!
"Yes!"
Shen Shixing nodded and said, "I've been busy these days. Fortunately, the emperor didn't ask about it. Otherwise, it would be our negligence.
But since Grand Secretary Zhang mentioned it, let's think about who is suitable! "
Zhang Siwei glanced at Shen Shixing and said with a smile, "Okay, let's think about it."
Having worked with Shen Shixing for so many years, Zhang Siwei naturally knew what Shen Shixing was playing. It was nothing more than delaying.
But how could he give him this chance? If he delayed it now, he would be in trouble later.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Siwei stood up and said, "Okay, let's go back to work!
The Empress is pregnant, which is a major event in the court. We should also send a congratulatory message. Let's think about how to write it. "
These days, Zhu Yijun had been staying in Kunning Palace, accompanying Empress Wang all day. He was finally going to be a father.
However, Zhu Yijun was also worried. It should be known that in history, Empress Wang often had an abortion, which was basically caused by the first pregnancy.
Zhu Yijun was very careful. He even sent Chen Ju to wait on him, for fear that something would go wrong.
However, Empress Wang couldn't stand it anymore. Although she was pregnant and happy that the emperor was by her side all day, he couldn't be like this all day long!
It was estimated that if the emperor didn't go back, the ministers would send memorials to the emperor, which would drive Zhu Yijun out of Kunning Palace.
"Your Majesty, this is the congratulatory message from the ministers."
Chen Ju held a stack of memorials and put them in front of Zhu Yijun. "They are all congratulatory to the Empress."
