The general of the Meridian Gate then confirmed that the woman in red dress was Emperor Zhengde. This man could cross the Meridian Gate with a young woman in his arms and whip her fingers at the Golden Palace. What other ridiculous things he could not do?

The general of the Meridian Gate hurriedly knelt down and said, "Long live my enlightenment, I dare not! The palace ban has fallen, and there is no reason to open the palace gate in the middle of the night."

Zhengde was furious and shouted, "Dare you dare to resist the order?"

The general of the Meridian Gate kowtowed and said, "Emperor, this is the ancestral system. Once the forbidden palace is closed, the palace gate cannot be opened even if the matters of heaven and earth are in trouble. Opening the palace gate is a death sentence. Resisting the imperial edict is also a death sentence. I would rather be sentenced to death by the emperor than to open the door in violation of bans."

The deputy general next to him knelt down tremblingly and said, "Your Majesty, this is indeed the royal rule. It cannot be changed. I dare not resist the order or violate the rules. Moreover...... The key of the Forbidden Palace was locked and was taken away by the Sili Supervisor. He would not return it until the fifth time."

Zhengde stomped his feet in a hurry. But he was not an ignorant person, and intimidation was one thing. These ministers strictly abide by the rules, so how could they really punish them? He ran to the palace gate and slapped the gate, shouting: "Yang Qing! Yang Shilu, are you outside?"

The sound was clearly heard at night. Shi Wenyi heard the emperor talking outside, and hurriedly raised his voice and replied, "Your Majesty, this is Shi Wenyi, the humble minister."

Zhengde was stunned when he heard this and said, "Shi Wenyi? Why are you doing outside the palace? Ask Yang Qing to come forward and answer."

Shi Wenyi did not dare to be negligent, so he hurried to the square outside the Meridian Gate to announce the imperial edict to Yang Ling. Yang Ling followed him to the Meridian Gate and felt very excited. He calmed down his mood, then slapped the palace gate "bang bang" and said loudly: "Your Majesty! I... Yang Ling saw that I was not dead, I am back!"

"Yang Qing!" Zhengde held the beast on the door tightly and kissed the copper ring, shouting happily: "Yang Ling! I am happy, I am very happy."

"Emperor..." Yang Ling did not say anything about "I should die, I should worry about the emperor." Apart from a door, he was the emperor of the Ming Dynasty and his brothers and sisters. He could not see each other, but they could all feel the flow of feelings between each other, which had surpassed the division between the king and the minister, and it was a kind of flesh-and-blood relationship.

After seeing off Empress Dowager Zhang, Liu Jin slowly straightened his waist and his face suddenly became gloomy.

Ma Yongcheng hurriedly got up, pulled his collar again, and said nervously: "Eunuch Liu, this Yang Ling survived the disaster. What should I do?"

Liu Jindi's eyes twitched slightly twice and said in a low voice: "The palace ban is locked up. I can't go out now. Otherwise, I can still discuss it with Zhang Cai, Wen Mian and the others. Our family is in a mess now and can't come up with a good idea. This Yang Ling is really a disaster. Even if the mountain collapses, he can't kill him. He is actually back."

He raised his hands behind his back and walked slowly and said, "It's hateful. If it weren't for the anonymous letter this morning, the person we arranged would have made a statement and handed over the Xichang and Maritime Office to me. By then, the situation is already done. Even if he returns to Beijing, can he still take it back? Now......... well? That letter... isn't it his people did it?"

Originally, because there were words criticizing Yang Ling in the letter, Liu Jin kept his eyes on the Qingliu School. Only then did he feel something, and he was probably fooled by them.

Liu Jin became more and more annoyed the more he thought about it. He stamped his feet and said, "Damn it! These guys have been pretending to be grandchildren. Our family was fooled by them. It's too late now, it's too late... However, most of the power in Beijing has fallen into our hands. Hehe. It's not that easy to compete with me now.

There are also literary and military virtues, such as the Duke of Power, Humph, all these posts and posthumous titles that have been praised must be taken back. How could he take any advantage?”

"Yes, yes," Ma Yongcheng was disrespectful to Yang Ling at the time. He exposed the incident of his female official bullying the princess and the prince-consort, forcing him to kill the female official with his cane. Since he completely surrendered to Liu Jin, he has even given up with him.

He nodded quickly and thought, and just left the theater after following Liu Jin. Looking at Liu Jin's gloomy face, a thought suddenly surged into his heart. He hurriedly shouted: "Father-in-law, our family has an idea to deal with Yang Ling. I don't know if it's feasible."

"Oh? Let's hear it." Liu Jin stopped and turned around with interest.

"Dadfather-in-law, the posthumous title is definitely not awarded, but this title is also a Duke... Our family thinks that it would be a good thing if he really granted Duke the title."

"Good thing?" Liu Jin's eyes became cold. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Ma Yongcheng. He said in a strange voice: "Why is it a good thing for him to be promoted to an official position? Come to our house to listen."

"Dude, the status of the Duke of the Kingdom has improved, but can the Duke of the Kingdom serve in the court? The rules of the Ming Dynasty, which Duke of the Kingdom can take charge of military power, control factory guards, and charge taxes? None of them have been put down. In the past two years, the rebellion was quelled and the Duke of the Kingdom was ordered to lead troops to conquer the Duke of the Kingdom of the Kingdom as soon as he returned to Beijing, he had to hand over the military power back immediately. The ministers and relatives should prevent autocracy.

If Yang Ling really became a Duke, and his local sister would soon become a concubine......Daddy, this honorary minister and relatives are all involved, and he dares to be loyal to power? If Yang Ling really became a Duke, then he would be a tiger with tooth. Looking at the world, besides you, who else can the emperor hand over the inner factory to?"

"Yes," Liu Jin suddenly realized, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt reasonable.

He was not lucky enough to be able to sit in this position. There were eight eunuchs who served the prince. After the prince ascended the throne, he was known as the Eight Tigers. In fact, those people were all used to make up the numbers. Except for Zhang Yong who could barely compete with him, the others were no problem.

He is the emperor's slave, but those people are his slaves. They can stand out among slaves because Liu Jin has unique vision, quick reactions, and accurate controls. After a few severity and weight, they suddenly turned around in his heart. Liu Jin had already made up his mind:

"If you become a Duke, you have to delegate power. Yang Ling is not dead. As long as you push him to the position of Duke, then there will be Duke Wei in the future, and without Yang Ling, this opponent will be dead. The most powerful internal factory is within your reach!"

Liu Jin was flushed with excitement and said, "Okay, that's it. I'll do it again when I go back. When Yangling returns to Beijing, all the officials will definitely discuss his additional positions again. Then let all the people in our country come forward to protect him. Even if we are on the ground, our family will also protect him Yang Ling and be his lord, hahahahaha..."

Four imperial guards were in groups, supporting high poles, with a string of lanterns hanging on the pole head, standing under the palace wall. Before the two lanterns was a long ladder, more than thirty little eunuchs were holding the ladder on the ground, and some were holding their hands high, worried that the people above would fall.

This ladder was opened by Ma Yongcheng and now it was lifted out. It was usually used by palace craftsmen to repair the palace walls. The ladder was very strong, but Liu Jin and Ma Yongcheng were still very nervous and kept shouting: "Hold the lantern closer. You guys stand below to hold it. If the emperor loses a hair, I will peel your skin!"

It turned out that Zhengde and Yang Ling were talking for a while across the palace gate. Zhengde wanted to see Yang Ling more and more. He couldn't even see his appearance through the door. He was really uneasy and didn't take a good look. He was afraid he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

But the general of the Meridian Gate was really kneeling there and pretending to be dead, looking at that look. Don't expect him to open the door at all. OK! Aren't you the ancestral system that you cannot open the palace gate? Then can I climb the wall? Is this rare thing to defeat me, Zhu Houzhao?

Zhengde stamped his feet and said, "Come on, go and move the ladder. Aren't you unable to open the palace gate? I want to go up the wall to see Yang Qing."

When he heard this, all four little yellow gates knelt down: "Your Majesty must not. If the emperor crosses the wall and leaves the palace, the servants will be beaten to death."

"Who said I was leaving the palace? I stood on the wall and looked at Yang Qing, go and move the ladder,...... move two. Go out and let Yang Qing go up the wall."

The eunuchs were relieved. Seeing that Zhengde was urging him very quickly, they hurriedly called the General of the Meridian Gate and sent eight soldiers to help carry the ladder. There were also soldiers outside to help with the escalator, but there were no lanterns. Yang Ling practiced excellent martial arts and improved his physical flexibility greatly. Although he could not compare with those who had been practicing martial arts since childhood, he climbed the ladder quickly. So although the one who was on the ladder was slower than Zhengde, he climbed onto the palace wall first.

Two strings of orange-red lanterns swayed slightly in the wind, and someone called Yang Qing in the palace wall, and his head also emerged.

First, there was a head of black hair, clouds surrounded by mist temples. Then a beauty rose slowly, like a red apricot coming out of the wall.

Yang Ling was startled again tonight. No matter how determined he was, he almost fell down. Through the glazed tiled wall, the woman in red in front of him showed a small part of her body. When they met, they were all stunned and said in unison: "Who are you?"

After hearing this, the voice was heard. Zhengde hurriedly shouted downwards: "Get closer to the lanterns, get closer." Two strings of red lights approached. Zhengde looked carefully and saw that the person opposite was covered in ordinary soldiers' clothes. He was ragged and wretched, and his face was also black and white. But his eyebrows, eyes, facial features were still recognized as Yang Ling, and he couldn't help but shout happily, pulling his arm, excitedly: "It's indeed Yang Qing, it's indeed Yang Qing, you are still alive, hahahaha..."

Yang Ling returned home. Everyone wanted to talk to him. Another person fainted and wanted to take care of him. He woke up and had dinner. As soon as he looked at his son, he ran to the palace. He didn't have to change his clothes and washed his head. He just wiped his face and hands. As soon as he soaked the boy's urine and spilled it on his hair, the dust and mud flowed down his face, and it turned out like this.

Yang Ling had the experience of seeing Zhengde in women's clothing last time, and immediately recognized him after being surprised. It was said that the emperor was extremely sad when he heard the news of his death, but the emperor was wearing a costume, as if he had just finished singing a big show, and something seemed to be something wrong. However, Yang Ling had a misunderstanding of Gao Wenxin's "Ming Marriage". When he saw Zhengde's eyes were full of tears, he looked excited and happy, without any doubt in his heart, and he also grabbed Zhengde through the wide palace wall.

The first snow was thin and had already stopped. The wind blew the clouds away. A round of warmth was as gentle as jade. The huge moon was hanging in the sky, as if it could be picked. The clear light like water poured quietly on the earth, pouring on the two brothers talking on the wall on the top of the palace wall.

Threads of thin clouds pass by gently, and the moonlight covered is smearing.

Liu Jin looked up for a long time, then sucked his nose, lowered his head and rubbed his sore neck, and asked while yawning, "What time is it going to be?"

Logically, the city ban is not allowed to be opened, but the city defense force belongs to Zhang Yong, Zhang Yong is Yang Ling's brother, and Yang Ling is the emperor's brother, so the west city gate opened at midnight, and more than ten fast horses galloped out and headed straight to Gaolaozhuang.

Yang Ling led more than a dozen personal soldiers back home, and saw the lights were brightly lit. The family and servants, including many maids and maids who should have stayed in the backyard, were waiting in the front hall. When they saw them coming in, they hurriedly came up to the ground to lead the horses and dusted them. Yang Ling threw the horses to his family and looked at the people who came up to him. Except for the young lady, Yu Jie'er, Xue Limei, Tang Yixian and Gao Wenxin were not there, so he asked, "Are they all asleep?"

"No, you haven't come back, you're all waiting for you in the hall. When you saw you enter the door, you quickly went back to the room."

Yang Ling was stunned at first, but immediately realized that they were worried about him when he was not going home, but now they were afraid that they would affect their rest when they were home, so they quickly avoided him.

The young lady smiled gently and sighed, "The water is ready, let's go back and take a shower first to relieve fatigue."

Yang Ling nodded, and the two returned to the back house. In their yard, they had set up a separate wooden house for bathing. This was the same as Tang Yixian's bathroom in the Leopard Garden. The main feature was that the convection was set up in the bath stove. The servant boiled water in the cottage next to him. The water flow was neither hot nor cold, and could be maintained at a constant temperature, which prevented the servant from constantly carrying water into the house and also had to adjust the water temperature.

The clean and soft robe had been placed on the shelf, and the house was filled with hot air. Yang Ling threw herself into the water and drenched her hair first. Then she lay on a special stone water chair, lying on the towel, her waist was stuck in a narrow place, and she would not slide into the water surface or float because of this posture. There were stone blocks on both sides that were above the water surface, which were designed to doze off.

His skin was itchy and a little tight, but Yang Ling still couldn't calmly enjoy the two little maids scrubbing and taking baths on his naked body. Ordinary local women would also want to kill someone in shame when they saw a naked man.

Maids are also humans, and they also have the same sense of shame and conception. Although wealthy families are used to maids and servants, Yang Ling never feels that no matter how high his official position is, he can treat maids as being killed and given to his private property, and not treat them as people.

The young lady knew his temper, so she put a piece of loofah sack by the pond and said softly to him: "You can soak it for a while. I'll go and see if the baby is awake and come back soon."

"Yes", you can quickly understand the other person's thoughts and joys and sorrows when you look at your wife without saying those stingy love words, one look or one move.

The young lady gently covered the door, and Yang Ling sighed. She washed her face with clean water. She closed her eyes and thought quietly: "I have to take a good rest. The emperor has approved the leave. Let's sleep for him for a day. In Sichuan's murderous crime, I will turn around and send the men to investigate according to my own speculation. I hope... it was not done by the Prince of Shu.

There is also Yun'er. I don't know how it is now. Several groups of messengers I sent out should have arrived. Wen Xin, but she didn't get married after passing the door, but she is already a native of my country. If you don't want her now, it would be more than just pretentious. It would be strange if she didn't seek death, let alone this big girl... Alas! Why don't you love her in your heart?

Liu Jin in the court dared to be so domineering today, which shows that he already had enough power in the court and could not be easily defeated. Of course, the most important thing is that the emperor favored him. Otherwise, unless he dared to rebel under the banner of "clearing the king's side", who could do anything to him? He had to observe the dynamics of the officials first and then act.

As long as my favor in the emperor's heart remains unabated, the plan I set in Sichuan's "Wangzhuxi" can be implemented. Even if this plan cannot defeat Liu Jin in one fell swoop, it will have to lose half of his power. But should I use it now or find a better opportunity? If I first grasp enough evidence of the crime and then implement the "Wing Cut", I might be able to defeat him in one fell swoop, otherwise I will be careful of his return...."

The gentle and warm water rippled with her body, and the feeling of drowsiness in her relaxed and comfortable state also enveloped her. Yang Ling yawned heavily with her eyelids, "Think about it slowly, what I need most now is to have a sleep"...

Han Youniang gently flashed into the door, "See......" She called for only half a sound, then stopped the sound and lit up, tiptoed towards her. Yang Ling made a slight snoring and was already asleep.

Han Youniang was waving a pair of slippers, naked and cute little feet, rolling up her sleeves to reveal a piece of her arms, obviously wanting to rub her husband. She looked at Yang Ling's sweet sleeping face, and reached out to stroke his stubble, but she was afraid of waking him up.

Seeing Yang Ling's shoulders exposed outside the water, Han Youniang picked up a large towel and gently covered him. Then she sat down by the pool, held her chin with her hands, and stood on the edge of the pool, looking at the man on the edge of the pool without blinking. A slight smile appeared from time to time, and she didn't know what she thought of...

After a while, the little girl Yun'er tiptoed to open the door and looked at it. In the wooden house, the master was sleeping soundly on the specially made large chair in the water. The lady was lying on the edge of the pond, her cheeks were pillowing on the back of her hands, and her sleeping looked sweet and sweet. Yun'er wanted to call her wife, but she thought it wasn't long before dawn. The lady hadn't slept in the past few days. So she also covered her wife with a thin blanket, and then stepped back gently.

The war horses in the front yard were led into the horse corridor, and these guards, who were originally affiliated with the four outer armies, had to live in the mansion first. Fortunately, the place was big enough, and there was a large kang in the north, and the bedding was squeezed into a bunk. Even so, I had been busy for a long time.

Miss Yun'er is the wife's personal maid, and her status in the mansion is not comparable to other maids. So she has a strong sense of responsibility. Seeing that the front yard is still brightly lit and she has not fallen asleep. When she saw that the master's wife was sleeping soundly, she called two sisters to take care of her at the door of the wooden house, and carried a lantern to rush to the front yard.

The front yard has almost been placed. Seeing that the guards had arranged it, the senior manager knew that these big men had an amazing appetite. They were probably hungry and might not get up in the morning. They had already ordered to cook porridge and steam steamed buns, and hurriedly asked people to send them in to the room.

After finishing his work, he was asking his family to go to rest as well. Yun'er came with a lantern and looked around. He stepped forward and said politely: "Old butler, have you arranged it?"

The senior manager thought it was the wife who was worried, so he came out to ask, and then smiled and said, "Well. All the arrangements have been made. Now the lights are off and I'm going to go to bed. Miss Yun'er has been taking care of her wife these days and is very tired. Go back and rest early."

The little girl smiled and nodded prettyly: "Well, the old butler should have rested earlier, I will go back to the backyard."

At this moment, Liu Dabangchui walked out muttered, and changed his clothes again, holding the robe of a certain adult's fried dough sticks and a general's soy sauce, and said angrily: "It's so annoying. I have only three sets of clothes. I haven't changed this set after leaving Beijing. I can't wear the rags. I finally changed the set when I come back. I finally got the one who is not open and the one who is eye-opening is oiled. I don't know if I can wash it or not."

Yun'er almost laughed out loud after hearing this: "This stupid man has only been wearing a set of clothes for several months after he left Beijing, and he is like a clean person. It's quite interesting."

She walked forward openly, grabbed the clothes from Liu Dabangchui who was looking for a wooden basin everywhere, and smiled and said, "Don't look for it, I'll wash it for you."

"You? No, no, that's not possible. You are a member of the eldest lady. I am a soldier and I dare not let you wash clothes."

"Okay, okay, it's such a big man, why are you mother-in-law and mother? I said that I would help you wash it. Do I like to wash it for you? Go and eat something to sleep."

"Oh......" Liu Dabangchui walked back two steps hesitantly, then suddenly turned around, bit his thick lip, and said seriously: "That...what, do you... do you like me? Is it okay if you like me? My mother said that in the future, I will go back to accompany him to the two elders. You are the eldest wife, the city, and you can't go with me."

"Ah?" Yun'er's chin almost fell off, and her little face looked like a big red cloth. She stared at Liu Dabangchui with her eyes wide open and said in a very devastating way: "Who is going to marry you? No, I'm gonna have a chance! Who likes you?"

The little girl was so embarrassed that she stuttered, and the tendons on her neck jumped up. The senior manager was funny and pursed her lips tightly but couldn't come. What would you say to him? It would be better to pretend not to look at it, so as not to be embarrassed by Miss Xiaoyun. The old butler retreated under the eaves and slipped out a few times away.

Liu Dabangcui said sarcastically: "What my mother said, you are not my wife, you are not my sister-in-law, you are not my sister-in-law, why do you have to wash clothes for me? How can women do whatever they want to do for strange men? My mother said..."

"Get out of your turtle big duck egg!" Miss Xiaoyun was so embarrassed that she had no face to see anyone. She stuffed her clothes into his hand, wiped her tears and ran away.

Liu Dabangcui said innocently: "Look, are you guilty?"

Wu Hanchao was very smart. When he found out that the two had just had a conversation, he left the room. The whole process fell into his eyes. Xiaoyun was someone next to the eldest lady. This kid had offended him and didn't know that he was now Yang Ling's guard commander. Yang's mansion would often go in and out in the future, so don't make enemies.

Wu Hanchao hurriedly stepped forward to stop Xiaoyun and smiled and said, "Miss, don't blame me, this guy... is actually a fool, and he is unintentional. Why should I be as good as him? I'll ask him to apologize to you."

Xiaoyun recognized him and knew that he was a high-ranking official under Yang Ling. When the wife read the letter from the master, she said that it seemed that the official was similar to the prefect. She didn't dare to be arrogant to this Lord Wu, so she stopped as she said.

Wu Hanchao walked over and blamed Dabanchi for saying a few words, then patted his shoulder hard and said, "Isn't you going to compensate the girl?" Can you say that messy words? Go quickly!"
