The old eunuch who had broken the deadlock was the supervisor of the East Chamber, Shang Ming!
Although eunuchs were not allowed to interfere in court affairs, the East Chamber was the Emperor's exclusive secret agency. It was not under anyone's command and only obeyed the Emperor.
The supervisor of the East Chamber wanted to say a few words, but who had the guts to impeach him?
If anyone really wanted to impeach the supervisor of the East Chamber, it would not take long before the background and information of that person would be exposed to the world. This was the lightest punishment.
If the East Chamber really wanted to deal with someone, they could directly use their authority to kill that person first before reporting, from a first-grade official to a ninth-grade petty official.
As long as he could give the emperor a reasonable explanation afterwards, he would be able to get away with it.
In recent years, because of Imperial Concubine Wan, her younger brother Wan Tong had been in charge of the Brocade Guard and had colluded with the West Chamber. The East Chamber had been suppressed to the point that it was somewhat suffocating.
However, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. If the Emperor did not speak, none of the ministers dared to reprimand him.
Hearing Shang Ming's words, Zhu Jianshen's stiff expression improved slightly. He chuckled and said,""Eunuch Shang has devoted half his life to Great Ming, so he naturally has the qualifications to say a few words.”
"Thank you for your grace, Emperor!"
Shang Ming's face lit up with joy as he repeatedly kowtowed in thanks. He then exchanged a glance with Zhu Moxie and nodded his head slightly.
"Your Majesty, since His Highness the Crown Prince has received the blessings of the heavens, it has already explained everything. His Highness the Crown Prince is the person destined by the heavens."”
"Now, the Crown Prince has survived a great disaster and has obtained good fortune. His mind has already completely matured. If he were to temper himself as soon as possible and accumulate more than ten years of experience, in the future, when he inherits the throne, he will definitely lead my Great Ming to the peak!”
"Well said!"
Zhu Jianshen was beaming with joy. He suddenly slapped the dragon throne, scaring the ministers below. Then, he laughed out loud.
His original intention was to hold this morning court session to force the ministers to join the battle team, so as to add a layer of protection for his son, so that Noble Consort Wan would not act rashly in the future.
Moreover, he also wanted to take this opportunity to see how many people in the imperial court were on Wan Zhen 'er's side.
Although he was obsessed with Wan Zhen 'er, he wasn't foolish enough to give the Ming Dynasty to the Wan family.
But what he didn't expect was that the East Chamber, which had never been able to participate in court affairs, would be the first to jump out and support Zhu Moxie at the risk of being beheaded.
The group of ministers below also looked surprised. In fact, they did not want to fight either side. After all, both Noble Consort Wan and the authentic royal family were at the peak of their power. It would not be good to follow either side.
The best way was to not say anything and just go with the flow.
Now, the powerful Supervisor of the East Chamber, Eunuch Shang, was openly standing on the Crown Prince's side. What did this mean?
The Crown Prince possessed at least half of the Ming Dynasty's high-end martial strength.
The three major secret service organizations of Ming Dynasty, the East Chamber and the West Chamber, the Jinyiwei, were all secret service organizations, but they had a clear division of labor. The East Chamber was closer to a military organization, and most of the martial arts masters recruited by the imperial court were in the East Chamber.
Among them, Shang Ming, the head of the gang, the head of the second gang, and several eunuchs who had practiced the Sunflower Manual were even more amazing. They could kill people by picking flowers and flying leaves.
With the protection of the East Chamber, the Crown Prince was almost invincible. As long as he successfully grew up to sixteen years old, he could naturally inherit the throne. At that time, the overall situation would be set.
Today, those who stood on the wrong side and did not express their views would definitely be the targets of the reckoning.
These ministers were all experienced and experienced. When they thought of this, they were so scared that they broke out in cold sweat. They were eager to give it a try and express their attitude.
Right at this moment, a silver-haired middle-aged eunuch who was standing opposite Shang Ming snorted and knelt on the ground. He kowtowed and said,""Emperor, please reconsider. Although His Highness the Crown Prince is gifted, he is still young. Unless he is possessed by a demon, it is impossible for him to not have the temperament of a child. It is not appropriate to let a child take over the state affairs of Great Ming.”
The ministers who were originally anxious to express their stance seemed to have been doused with a basin of cold water, and they hesitated for a moment.
This silver-haired eunuch was none other than the arch-enemy of the East Chamber, the Governor of the West Chamber, Wang Zhi!
This person could only be considered a rising star. If they really fought, his weight was definitely not enough to compare with the old senior Shang Ming.
However, in recent years, the current Emperor had succeeded to the throne and favored Imperial Concubine Wan.
Imperial Concubine Wan used her own favor to promote her brother Wan Tong to the Commander-in-Chief of the Brocade Guard. He was a third-grade official, but his real power was stronger than any first-grade official.
If it was just these two people, none of them would be able to defeat Shang Ming, who was so powerful in both scheming and martial arts.
However, Wan Tong and Wang Zhi, the two rising stars, were not stupid. They knew that they could not defeat the old eunuch, so they worked together to resist the East Chamber's power.
As Wantong and Wang Zhi's foundations became more and more stable, the East Hall had been declining in recent years. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that if the East Hall did not turn around, it would probably never be able to make a comeback in a few years.
This was politics. No matter how strong an individual was, as long as they were not strong enough to fight against the state, they could only follow the rules in this kind of battle.
The ministers in the hall knew that this morning court session was not only a confrontation between the East and West Factories, but also a game between the Crown Prince and Imperial Concubine Wan.
And they were just chess pieces!
As long as he took a wrong step, he would lose the entire game!
The current situation was not clear. It was better to be indecisive. It would depend on how this young and mature Crown Prince would respond.
Zhu Jianshen's face became gloomy again. He was a little angry and shouted,"Eunuch Wang, are you trying to say that my child is a demon?!”
This sudden and fierce voice made Wang Zhi feel as if his eardrums were being torn apart.
In front of the Son of Heaven's Dragon Might, even martial arts experts could not remain calm.
"Emperor, why are you so angry? Eunuch Wang is just loyal. As the old saying goes, a thousand li dam will be filled with ants. Even if the Crown Prince's childlike nature has been washed away by the heavens, he is still a child and cannot be overworked. If he delays the state affairs, it may affect the lives of hundreds of millions of people.”
Imperial Concubine Wan said indifferently, without any joy or sadness.
"Zhen 'er, you!"
Zhu Jianshen was extremely embarrassed and angry. Yesterday, she had clearly promised him that she would not deal with the Crown Prince anymore. He did not expect that she would collude with Wang Zhi to put on such a show today. For a moment, he was speechless.
