......

The so-called relatives.

It was also the maternal family of those people in the harem.

Don't think that relatives aren't powerful.

Empress Lu of the early Han Dynasty, General He of the late Han Dynasty, Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty, etc.

There were relatives among them.

Counting the dynasties of China.

Other than the first generation, in the following dynasties.

The power of the dynasty had become a cake. The people fighting for it included the emperor himself, his relatives, the eunuchs, and the civil officials who represented the gentry.

In the process of Zhu Houzhao seizing power step by step.

The first one to attack was a relative.

It wasn't because his relatives were the biggest threat.

It was because of Empress Dowager Zhang's two stupid younger brothers who actually hired assassins to assassinate him.

Such a huge crime.

Naturally, he should be cut into pieces!

However, under the pleas of Empress Dowager Zhang and many ministers, Zhu Houzhao was forced to give up on this idea and sent the two to the border instead!

It was also because of this matter.

Only then did Zhu Houzhao obtain the original power of a consort, which could be considered as the initial capital to contend with the power of civil officials.

Renshou Palace.

Although it was a banquet, there were only two people.

Empress Dowager Zhang and Zhu Houzhao.

The table was filled with delicacies.

However, Empress Dowager Zhang didn't have any thoughts. She only had a sad expression.

He looked at Zhu Houzhao, who was focused on dealing with the food.

She sighed softly.

"Son, you haven't come to see this widow for a long time.”

Of course, she knew what her son was disgusted with.

After all, no one could let go of the fact that someone would plead for mercy for the mastermind behind the assassination.

but

After all, Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling were his younger brothers.

How could he make her harden her heart?

"Recently, I have been busy with government affairs. I hope Empress Dowager will not blame me.”

Zhu Houzhao wiped his mouth and threw the silk handkerchief aside."I've eaten well tonight. If Empress Dowager has nothing else to do, zhen will go back first.”

"You didn't eat much."

A trace of bitterness flashed across Empress Dowager Zhang's face.

"I am not hungry."

Zhu Houzhao said indifferently.

The royal family was heartless, and the emperor was even more heartless.

All these years, in order to consolidate power, he had long honed his unwavering heart.

Empress Dowager Zhang.

Other than being her biological mother, she also had the identity of covering up for the murderer and being a relative.

In the huge Benevolent Longevity Palace.

It was definitely not a place to talk about warmth.

In the face of power.

The so-called feelings could only be tools.

"There's something."

Empress Dowager Zhang hesitated, but finally spoke.

"He Ling and Yan Ling are your uncles after all. Although they did something wrong in the past, they have stayed in the border for almost ten years now. You see…"

"Zhang Heling, Zhang Yanling."

Zhu Houzhao pointed at the table with his finger."Zhen hasn't heard the Empress Dowager mention these two names for almost ten years.”

"Zhen already knows and will consider it.”

After he finished speaking, Zhu Houzhao stood up.

He turned around and left.

He looked at Zhu Houzhao's back.

Empress Dowager Zhang almost reached out to stop him.

However, after holding it in the air for a long time, he finally put it down silently.

"Fight ~~~"

The eunuch shouted.

Zhu Houzhao's dragon chariot slowly moved toward his leopard house.

However, he had just left the palace.

The dragon carriage suddenly stopped.

"Qian Ning."

"This servant is here."

Qian Ning, who was riding on a tall horse, quickly got off the horse.

"Do you know why the Empress Dowager suddenly mentioned those two today?”

Those two people.

Naturally, they were Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling.

Since he suddenly brought it up.

Then there must be a reason!

Only then did Qian Ning realize what was going on and said in fear,"Master, this servant doesn't know."

"I'll give you five incense sticks worth of time to investigate.”

Zhu Houzhao's voice came from the carriage.

He couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry, but it was so cold that it made people's hearts turn cold.

"This servant will go now!"

Qian Ning didn't dare to hesitate and ran back to the palace.

The eight tigers under Zhu Houzhao each had their own responsibilities.

Liu Jin was in charge of the West Chamber, and Gu Dayong was in charge of the ceremonial supervisor.

As for Qian Ning.

They were responsible for the supervision of the palace.

If he didn't find out the reason within five incense sticks 'time…

The consequences.

Qian Ning naturally understood.

After the time for four incense sticks to burn…

Qian Ning ran back to him.

Kneeling in front of the Dragon Carriage, he took a few deep breaths to suppress the panting in his throat.

"Master, I found it!"

"Half a month ago, the Empress Dowager had a maid named Xie by her side. This person was originally working in the Zhang family. I believe the Empress Dowager suddenly brought this up because of this maid.”

"In other words, half a month ago, there was an additional palace maid in the palace, and you only know now?”

He listened to the voice coming from the dragon carriage.

"This servant deserves to die!"

Qian Ning knelt in front of the dragon carriage, not daring to raise his head. A look of despair flashed across his face.

He knew His Majesty's style of doing things.

Other than Liu Jin and Gu Dayong, who had grown up with him, he could be slightly lenient.

They were the eunuchs who had been used halfway.

If he did something wrong, there was probably only one way out.

"Go to the West Hall and receive ten lashes."

Zhu Houzhao said slowly.

As a punishment prison, West Hall had countless ways to torture people.

The long whip had thorns.

A whip could bring out three taels of flesh.

However, when Qian Ning heard this punishment, he was overjoyed."Thank you for your mercy, Master!"

"By the way, how are those two people doing at the border?”

" Reporting to Master," Qian Ning hurriedly replied," I haven't seen any weapons in recent years. The two uncles are no different from ordinary soldiers."”

But this time.

No other sound came from the dragon carriage.

Qian Ning's heart tightened, and his mind spun rapidly.

He finally blurted out.

"Master! This servant remembered wrongly. Those two country uncles couldn't stand the cold and had died in the army not long ago!”

"Very good."

A voice finally came from the dragon carriage.

Qian Ning heaved a sigh of relief.

"My Ming Dynasty rules the world with filial piety. Since those two are already dead, let their sons and nephews go to the border to collect their corpses.”

"Yes, sir!"

He didn't allow the officials from the Ministry of Rites to inform them.

Instead, he asked a eunuch to inform them.

Qian Ning naturally knew what the Emperor was thinking.

"Fight ~~~"

As he shouted again, the dragon carriage stopped at the entrance of the palace and slowly left again.

He looked at the back of the dragon carriage.

It took Qian Ning a long time before he slowly stood up.

However, he had been kneeling for too long, and when he stood up, he almost fell again.

"Zhang Guofu!"

Qian Ning narrowed his eyes, which were filled with ferocity.

If it wasn't for this group of d * mn b * stards, how would he have been scolded by His Majesty?

it's a small matter to receive a whip.

However, if he sullied his image in His Majesty's heart…

Then he would really be finished!

"Let's go!"

Qian Ning waved his hand.

"Godfather, where are you going?"

The eunuch at the side did not understand.

"To the Zhang Family!"

Qian Ning's voice traveled along with the wind.

He gritted his teeth.

It made one's ears ache.
