In the Ganqing Palace, Empress Dowager Zhang's expression turned pale when she thought of the message Qian Ning just now. She had a hard time living these few months. If it weren't for Xu Xun's secret memorials, Zhu Houzhao's handwritten letter would have been attached to her. Her only son was talking about his experiences outside. At the end of the day, she would always ask her about her well-being. When she felt that her son was becoming more and more sensible, she finally strengthened her mind. She was afraid that she would not be able to hold on.

At this moment, looking at the queen who was kneeling on the ground, she felt angry and immediately slapped the handrail and said in a deep voice: "You also stopped me from sending troops to Qian Ning's hand order because I listened to you. Now this happened! People were already panicked because of the emperor's illness in the court. If the news spreads again, what if there is something wrong, can you bear the consequences?"

Zhou Qiniang pursed her lips tightly. But thinking that she had already reached the secret letter of Xu Xun in her hands, she could not tell the secret letter of Zhu Houzhao and Xu Xun that group were safe and sound now, otherwise Empress Dowager Zhang would have had a deeper grudge. Moreover, it was not the emperor's handwritten letter, Empress Dowager Zhang might not believe it. So she could only bow her head and silently bear these blames, but she quickly thought about the hidden truth behind Qian Ning's transfer of troops. Finally, just after Empress Dowager Zhang got angry again, Rong Shangyi's voice came from outside.

"The Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager Xiao asked for an interview, saying that there was an important matter."

"Prince."

Empress Dowager Zhang called out and signaled Zhou Qiniang to stand up. She had just sorted out her expression. When Xiao Jing came in, her expression was as normal. But Xiao Jing said the first sentence, and the calm that she had finally maintained disappeared.

"The Marquis of Pingbei has delivered a secret letter of eight hundred miles to the emergency. The Western Factory was handed to my servants. I dared not hesitate and delivered it immediately."

"Take it to me!"

Queen Mother Zhang almost snatched the letter and was about to tear open the seal, but the oil paper seal was extremely strong. She tore it twice but didn't move at all. Zhou Qiniang saw the opportunity and immediately went to take the paper cutter knife and went forward to help cut the seal. When Queen Mother Zhang took out the thick stack of paper, she immediately turned over one by one, and found Zhu Houzhao's familiar handwriting in a moment.

"My mother, Wan An. My son is fine. The rebellion in Ningfan in Jiangxi has been quelled. My son will return to Beijing soon. I will report the details later." After these simple lines of handwriting that shocked her, there were several lines of more sloppy handwriting.

"Liu Jin sacrificed his life to assassinate King Ning, and his son felt confused. This time he left the capital, the queen and the queen were frightened. The son's faults, but if it were not for the capital, the son would not know. Everyone said that it was a peaceful and prosperous era, but as the emperor, he could only whitewash the peace."

King Ning really rebelled? Liu Jin sacrificed his life to assassinate King Ning?

Empress Dowager Zhang almost dazedly handed Zhu Houzhao's letter to Zhou Qiniang, and then woke up and hurriedly took out the letters of Xu Xun and read them carefully from beginning to end. Fortunately, Xu Xun's account was like writing a novel, with ups and downs, and she couldn't help but stand up when she saw the most nervousness. When she finally settled, she breathed a sigh of relief. When she saw what Xu Xun said, "The Mansion of Ning Wang was that Qian Ning went to Nanchang Mansion and Ning Wang had a banquet for a long time, and had a deep friendship. Thinking that Qian Ning had just arrived to mobilize troops, she immediately exclaimed.

"Where is Qian Ning? Get the person back quickly!"

Xu Xun had already seen Xiao Jing when he left Beijing, so even though the old eunuch in his seventies had never seen this tight emergency report, he could guess what happened. Seeing Empress Dowager Zhang repeatedly calling, he saw Rong Shangyi hurriedly leaving, and immediately gave Zhou Qiniang a wink. Seeing the young queen standing up and taking Rong Shangyi out, he stepped forward and said respectfully: "Master may let me take a look at the news from the Marquis of Pingbei?"

Seeing that Empress Dowager Zhang had handed over something, Xiao Jing only took the important one and quickly glanced for a while. After roughly grasping the whole story, he whispered: "The Empress Dowager wants to get Qian Ning back, but what important thing has he told him?"

Empress Dowager Zhang only knew that Qian Ning was also a minister who was deeply trusted by Zhu Houzhao, so she gave a handwritten edict after a few instigation. She also scolded the queen severely. But at this moment, she knew the whole story and couldn't help but regret it. After Xiao Jing returned to the palace, she summoned her several times, and she needed the oldest eunuch in the palace to suppress the inner official. After thinking about it, she revealed to Xiao Jing that Zhu Houzhao was not in the palace. At this time, she struggled for a moment and told her that she asked Liu Yu, Cao Yuan and Zhang Cai to go with Qian Ning. She thought that Xiao Jing would be shocked, but unexpectedly, the other party comforted her softly.

"The Empress Dowager doesn't have to worry. I heard that the left and right officials had a system, and that the troops had to be transferred through the decree issued by the Wenyuan Pavilion imperial edict room, and stamped with the emperor's small seal or written by the emperor, otherwise it would not be transferred. After the danger that last year, Jingyang Boshenying would never be fooled by Qian Ning!"

"But Liu Yu, Cao Yuan and Zhang Cai, the two elders of the Pavilion Master, came over and brought my edict..."

"Empress Dowager is lenient. It is true that they are the Minister of the Pavilion, but that is because the emperor trusts to have such status and power. But in the army, the three civil officials are not considered to be! Since the Ningfan Rebellion in Jiangxi has been put down, and now the Empress Dowager is in the capital for the emperor, although there have been discussions between the inside and outside of the court in the past few months, it is generally peaceful. Now that the emperor has already heard that Jiangxi has been pacified, it is appropriate to find out those people with ulterior motives in the capital."

Speaking of this, Xiao Jing struck while the hot, "Shut me and say something bold. Although the prince of Shouning is now very trusted by the emperor, there is no responsibilities in the Marquis of Shouning and Marquis of Jianchang. As a concubine, he didn't care about these things, but wouldn't it be better if they could be trusted by the Emperor more? As for the empress dowager's edict, please give someone another copy to the Prince of Jingyang immediately."

As soon as these words were said, Empress Dowager Zhang's eyes lit up, and the uneasiness on her face turned into an unconcealed joy. Her father was just a prison student, and her two younger brothers in her family were not outstanding people. It was just because he occupied the light of his relatives, and Emperor Hongzhi was the only queen, so he was named Marquis of Aiwu and Wulian Zhang Changling. Zhu Houzhao was always mediocre to these two uncles. If it weren't for Xu Xun's promotion to Zhang Zong, Zhu Houzhao wouldn't know what to do with the trouble that Zhang Heling, the Marquis of Shouning, had he not known what to do with him!

So she immediately reiterated her focus and said, "You really reminded me that Houzhao has always been lukewarm with his two uncles. If they can make great contributions, Houzhao will definitely look at him when he comes back."

While talking, Zhou Qiniang had already entered the house again. After the ceremony, she bowed to Empress Dowager Zhang and said, "My mother, Rong Shangyi is waiting for you to show her."

Empress Dowager Zhang had changed her mind at this time, so naturally she would not blame Zhou Qiniang for stopping Rong Shangyi, and even said with a kind look: "Very good. In this way, you ask Ding Banshan to send a message to the Xichang factory, and let the Xichang manage the Qianhu..." She didn't remember the person's name for a while, so she simply vaguely went there, "Let someone stare at Qian Ning and others, and report any news immediately."

Seeing that Zhou Qiniang agreed and was about to leave, she suddenly called him, and looked at Xiao Jing and said, "Although you had a good idea just now, even if Hou Shouning and Hou Jianchang were willing, they would still lack the ability to adapt to the situation. Besides, they are both military officers and they are not well-known in the army. Do you have any good people to recommend?"

Xiao Jing glanced at Zhou Qiniang and saw that the queen's eyelids were drooping and speechless, he said respectfully: "Report to the Empress Dowager, this time Pinggan won a great victory, and Pingbei Hou Xun made great contributions, and the Chief Lishui General Liu made great contributions to the assassination of the assassination of the imperial court. Since this is the case, it would be best to invite Pingbei Hou's father, Xing'an Hou Xu Liang, to come forward. As for the civil servant..."

Xu Xun was the one who got him from Jinling, so he wanted to establish a good relationship with Zhu Houzhao. Now this goal is not only achieved, but is ten times better than he expected. Therefore, Xiao Jing received the request from Xu Xun before leaving, and he had to do his best to think about everything. At this moment, he had to hesitate. It is important to know that among the civil officials in the capital, the chief assistant Li Dongyang is the current Minister of Personnel Zhang Cai. Although Lin Jun and Zhang Fuhua have a close relationship with Xu Xun, they are too upright. However, Li Dongyang is now a center-based school, with a thin camel bigger than a horse, and there are still a group of old friends behind him. Zhang Cai changed to Liu Jin's subordinates, and it is inevitable that Liu Dang will benefit. What's more, Qian Ning had specially added Zhang Cai to Liu Yu and Cao Yuan before, and maybe there was another mystery.

At this moment, another voice came from the outside: "The Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and the Secretary of the Li Ji Sun Bin asked for a visit."

Since Xiao Jing came back, he did not play any aloof tricks. After all, he had been away from the center for two or three years, so he had to promote his disciples to do things. Sun Bin, the god-san, was appointed again. At this moment, he immediately explained his identity to Empress Dowager Zhang. When Sun Bin entered the house, before he could ask, Sun Bin spoke.

"Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager, Lord Qian took Liu Ge Lao Cao Ge Lao out of the capital. It is said that Zhang Shangshu of the Ministry of Personnel suddenly fainted in the hall, so the three of them left first." Speaking of this, he paused slightly, looked at the expressions of Empress Dowager Zhang, Empress and Xiao Jing, and then said softly, "I don't know if someone deliberately spread the news, or the shouting of Mr. Cao Ge Lao in front of the Qianqing Palace before, the Censorate of the Five Prefectures and Six Ministry, etc., are all rumoring that the incident between the Marquis of Pingbei and Eunuch Liu!"

Bang--

At this time, Empress Dowager Zhang didn't know that Qian Ning was playing tricks. She gritted her teeth and slapped the handrail hard, and then said sternly: "Send the order and order the Marquis of Shouning Jianchang and Marquis of Xing'an to lead the imperial guards of the Imperial City together!"

Almost as soon as she finished speaking, another voice came from outside.

"The Empress Dowager, Empress, and Secretary of the Ministry of Personnel, Lord Zhang, presented the secret disclosure."
