"It's so good, as the sir said."

Zhu Qizhen nodded. Doing so can promote Chen Yichen's example and sell Cheng Guogong a face, which is indeed a killing of two birds with one stone.

"I, thank you for your kindness!"

Zhu Yong couldn't figure out what was going on. Anyway, he kowtowed and thanked him first. At least the imperial gift of Jieyuan Archway is not a bad thing.

At this moment, a message from the eunuch of the Sidian suddenly rang outside: "The Empress Dowager is here, Huichang Bo will meet you!"

Hearing this sound, Zhu Qizhen also stood up from the dragon throne and welcomed the Empress Dowager Sun with Wang Zhen and Zhu Yong.

"My son has met his mother!"

"Your Majesty does not need to be polite."

The Empress Dowager Zhang helped Zhu Qizhen up very friendly. After all, they were biological mothers and sons, so their relationship was naturally much better than many nominal mothers.

"What's the important thing about my mother coming?"

Under normal circumstances, the harem rarely comes to the previous dynasty, even as the empress dowager.

Even the Empress Dowager Zhang, who had previously assisted the government with the "Three Yangs", would hardly appear in front of the court officials, and would more often be in the harem to control the government affairs remotely.

Therefore, there must be something important to say about the Empress Dowager's appearance in Chengtian Palace.

"I heard that a scholar outside the palace gate knocked on the palace. It seemed to be related to the Imperial College Prison. I wonder if Your Majesty knew about it?"

When Zhu Qizhen heard this, he subconsciously glanced at Sun Zhong. Although this was his own grandfather, he still felt a little unhappy after bypassing the emperor and directly reporting to the empress dowager.

Huichang's No. Sun Zhong is also a wise man. He understood the emperor's meaning with just one look. He immediately apologized: "Your Majesty calmed down. I came here because of a thank-you gift on my birthday. When the palace gate saw this, he was worried that it would cause a stir, so he spoke more."

"I naturally know the loyalty and patriotism of Huichang, and I have been very worried about it."

Zhu Qizhen did not express his feelings, but instead praised Huichang Bo, showing the emperor's art of controlling his subordinates.

Many people nicknamed Zhu Qizhen "Zhaomen Emperor" after being captured because of the Tumu Fort Incident, thinking that this is a complete iron waste.

This view can be said to be correct or not completely correct.

Zhu Qizhen had two emperor careers, and his life can actually be viewed in two stages.

Before the Tumu Fort Incident, he was not considered a waste. On the contrary, he worked hard to govern the government with great ambitions. He went north and continuously suppressed the living space of Mongolian tribes, went south and suppressed the chieftain separatist forces in the southwest border, and even left spare energy to wipe out the peasant uprising in the southeast.

The battle cannot be said to be beautiful, but at least it was won. After Lord Jingnan became old, he discovered Chen Mao, Jiang Gui, Wang Ji and other important officials.

As for government affairs, it was not particularly bad. The system of burial was abolished, which was considered to have accumulated good deeds for himself. Therefore, the evaluation of him in the official history of the Ming Dynasty was not bad.

Of course, there are also many contributions from the Empress Dowager Zhang and the Three Yangs of the Cabinet.

Since the Tumu Fort Incident, Emperor Yingzong of Ming could basically maintain the ranking of the most trasty emperors in China, and compete for one. Another strong competitor is Emperor Huizong of Song Zhao Ji. The two of them even had similar experiences in "Northern Hunting".

He destroyed hundreds of thousands of elite troops in the Ming Dynasty, destroyed the achievements of the three ancestors, asked the party to lead the way, and purged the loyal ministers such as Yu Qian and Guo Deng to set up temples to worship the enemy, knelt for sacrifice, and consecrated Wang Zhen to sacrifice, and established a temple to honor loyalty...

One thing is considered a piece that is hard to write, and it can be regarded as extremely stupid.

However, during the ten-year orthodox period, Emperor Yingzong of Ming Dynasty Zhu Qizhen still had absolute imperial authority and did not start to show off his own bad luck.

"Thank you for your understanding."

Huichang Bo breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he didn't expect the Empress Dowager to be unable to control herself and came to the previous dynasty in person to ask.

According to the plan, they were the mother and son who communicated privately, so that they could retain the emperor's face and demonstrate their contributions.

Zhu Qizhen did not care about Chang Bo's answer, but replied to the Empress Dowager Zhang: "My mother, I know about knocking on the palace gate. I was discussing this matter with my husband and Duke Chengguo just now, and I made a decision."

"Oh, I wonder what Your Majesty will do?"

"Parsal of the Imperial College Priest Li Shimian, and granted the Jieyuan Archway to praise Chen Yichen's behavior of respecting his teachers and respecting the Tao."

After hearing the emperor's way of dealing with the emperor, Sun Shaozong was stunned for a moment after hearing the way he dealt with it. He even forgot about his superiority and inferiority. He subconsciously looked up at the emperor, his face full of incredibleness.

The leader made trouble and offended Wang Zhen. Being able to save his life was accumulating virtue in his previous life and was reincarnated at the Duke Chengguo's mansion.

The result was not only that there was no punishment, but also the praise of the Jieyuan Archway of the Emperor. Is this the emperor wrong, or is it that Wang Zhen was confused when taking the wrong medicine and was not clear about the reward and punishment?

"Since Your Majesty has made a decision, the Ai family will not say much. The foundation of our ancestors is passed on to you, so we should protect the foundation of the country."

The Empress Dowager Sun did not make any judgment on Zhu Qizhen's handling, because it was a taboo for the harem to interfere in politics, especially in front of court officials. Therefore, whether Zhang was satisfied or not, he could only say a few words of scenes at this time.

"Don't worry, my mother, my son will definitely remember it."

"Then your Majesty will discuss with the important officials in the court, and the Ai family will stay soon."

"Give me a farewell to my mother."

"Great send to the Empress Dowager."

After watching Empress Dowager Sun leave, Zhu Qizhen and his ministers spoke to Wang Zhen: "Sir, let the Imperial Office draft the Imperial Office and calm the matter as soon as possible."

"Sister obeys the order."

After hearing the edict drawn up, Sun Shaozong finally came back from the initial unbelievable shock and realized that the punishment result was indeed so realistic.

At this moment, he was extremely angry and resentful in his heart. Is Chen Yichen really so lucky? Why can he be defeated by such a thing? Why can he still be appreciated by the emperor's imperial gift of Jieyuan Archway? Why?

Outside Fengtian Gate, Chen Yichen had been kneeling in the snow for more than an hour. At this moment, his face was pale and his body was shivering uncontrollably.

Among the thousands of scholars who followed him, some left quietly, some collapsed from strength to strength, and some insisted on the integrity in their hearts.

Feng Zichu came behind Chen Yichen at some point and said provocatively in a victorious tone: "Xie Yuanlang, I see that your body is trembling, is it because of the coldness or because of panic in my heart?"

Hearing the sarcastic words behind him, Chen Yichen was too lazy to pay attention to it. When he was in Yingtian Mansion, he had never looked at him directly, and now he is not on the same level.

Faced with Chen Yichen's ignorance, the humiliation of being despised at Zhaowen Academy surged into his heart. Feng Zichu continued in a resentful tone: "Chen Yichen, you could rely on your identity as the son of Chengguo Duke to surpass us and easily become the top scholar."

"Now I want to see if Duke Cheng can still save you!"

The greatest injustice in Feng Zichu's heart was that he was studying under Lin Zhen's school, but he was first promoted by a maid who was not even a Tongsheng, and became the top scholar.

He couldn't figure out what he was better than Chen Yichen, let alone the "question for advice" of Zhaowen Academy. Lin Zhen was obviously distorted, which caused Feng Zichu's self-esteem to suffer great setbacks.

So he blamed all these factors on the reason behind Chen Yichen's father Cheng Guogong.

Now that he has taken advantage of the situation and made Chen Yichen offend Wang Zhen, the world's largest powerful minister, but Feng Zichu doesn't believe that his father, who is a Duke, can turn danger into safety!

"Do you think I can become the master of the throne, because of my identity as the son of the Duke of Chengguo?"

"Otherwise, what's your virtue?"

Hearing this, Chen Yichen moved. He turned around and looked at Feng Zichu with a sharp look and said, "That's because I'm better than you, a waste!"

Chen Yichen generally disdains to argue with people like Feng Zichu. The reason is very simple, that is, there are too many people in this world who envy, jealous and hate, and you can't prove it to everyone at all.

The best way is to leave them behind from afar, so that they can only look up at your height, as small as an ant.

But before we shake off enough gaps, the fly always buzzes around us, so we have to slap them to learn to shut up.

"What did you say!"

Feng Zichu didn't expect Chen Yichen to speak so simply and rudely, and even insulted himself, and he couldn't help but feel emotionally.

His words also attracted the attention of everyone around him. Many literati who were ignoring the verge of the literati looked at him one after another.

This time, Chen Yichen was not at all tactful. He held the mentality of slapping someone in the face, and used the literati's words to say in front of everyone: "I don't see a raccoon, but I am humble and hiding. For those who are waiting for Ao, they will jump from the east and the west, and will not stop the high and low."

This sentence comes from Zhuangzi's "Xiaoyaoyou", which is the article where there is a fish in Beiming, whose name is Kun.

The literal translation means to describe wild cats, but the metaphor refers to those who have low character or have no real talent and talent, who make every effort to make trouble and destroy things in order to achieve personal gain or ulterior motives.

But after all, nothing is great, it just really exposed his ugly face.

At the lowest present, all literati with scholars and fame. It is impossible to understand the meaning of popular articles such as "Xiaoyaoyou".

Many people showed shock on their faces. Jie Yuanlang was so direct and attacked a clown as a "jump clown". What kind of grudges do they have?

At the same time, there are many candidates who came from the Yingtian Guild Hall. They all know Feng Zichu. After all, the top leader in Zhaowen Academy was also the previous scholar in Yingtianfu Provincial Examination. They are both famous and talented, and it is difficult for the literati circle to know whether they want to.

"Xie Yuanlang has always been a humble gentleman. Why is he so angry today?"

"What exactly did Feng Zichu have to celebrate with Chen Jieyuan? It seems to be incompatible with water and fire."

"Ha, you forgot who came forward first and said that Chen Jieyuan had signed a memorial. Isn't it Feng Zichu? What are the consequences of offending the eunuch? I believe you all know what are the consequences of offending the eunuch?"

"Is this a killing person with a knife?"

If you can pass the exam for scholars and get a fame in the Ming Dynasty, you can be called an elite class. In addition, Chen Yichen can be called a slander in person, so it is naturally easy to think of the signing and memorial.

So all kinds of discussion spread among the scholars who were knocking on the verge of the literati. They did not expect that behind such righteous actions, there was such a dirty frame-up intention.

Feng Zichu was stunned. He was suppressed by Chen Yichen's sharpness at Zhaowen Academy. Now that he has arrived at the capital, facing Chen Yichen's firepower again, he is still beaten to no avail.

Just as he was about to tear apart and fight with Chen Yichen, the palace gate in front of him was suddenly opened.

A eunuch led the palace servants and the palace guards to Chen Yichen and others to knock on the Que scholars, and then pulled out a bright yellow scroll.

"Chen Yichen received the order!"

When he heard that the imperial edict was read, Chen Yichen and the scholars shouted long live the imperial edict.

"In accordance with the will of heaven, the emperor ordered that I have made great contributions to sacrificing wine in the Imperial College and pardoned his punishment. Another new science, Jie Yuan, Chen, revered his teacher and respected the Tao, should be regarded as an example for scholars in the world, and granted a Jie Yuan archway to memorize this!"

The imperial edicts of the Ming and Qing dynasties gradually became more concise from the detailed and popular period of Zhu Yuanzhang to the point where they were gradually becoming more concise, and there was almost no nonsense to talk about the matter directly.

When these few short sentences were announced, the scholars were first silent in disbelief, and then cheers gradually sounded in the crowd, and some people couldn't help crying.
