Chapter 239
"This morning in the court, some officials were criticizing and forcing the emperor to abdicate..."
"Then tomorrow, in front of His Majesty, you will lick back the spit you spit out."
"The emperor's personal soldiers, aren't they supposed to do the dirty, tiring work?"
In the imperial study!
Zhu Youwei, holding the "Zhenfusi Morning News", read all four pages and said "good" several times in great joy.
"Yan'er, this first edition of 'Current Affairs and Political Highlights' really hits the Donglin Party in the nick of time."
"Since I ascended the throne, I have never felt so relieved and at ease as I do now."
"In Xu Qing's words, 'Walk in someone else's path, leaving them with nowhere to go', it turns out it can be so comfortable?"
Before leaving Beijing, Xu Shan wrote a memorial of several hundred words and reported it secretly to His Majesty.
Inform me of the entire plan for this trip to Taiping and Liuhe.
At that time, Zhu Youwei was still vaguely worried that his methods were too radical and might cause unnecessary trouble.
On the contrary, it was the Heavenly Master who showed his support, which was rare!
It is for this reason that His Majesty gave the reply, "Go ahead and do it."
Originally, she had already figured out how to deal with pressure from all sides.
But now it seems that I was worrying too much.
Newspapers, a product that did not belong to this era, broke the public opinion barriers of the gentry in one fell swoop.
Not only did he turn the tables on the enemy, but he also cut off the enemy's supply of funds.
Shangguan Yan'er, upon hearing this, flipped through the third page and asked, "Where does Xu Shan find all this gossip?"
"It's written in a serious manner."
"Haha! He even knows exactly which concubine is cheating on him? Xu Qing, what's the name of this..."
"Paparazzi."
"Yes, paparazzi. They're omnipresent!"
"But I prefer this fourth edition..."
"Ah? Xu Shan's fabricated nonsense?"
"Yes! I can't help but urge you to update."
"'The People's Righteousness of the Storm'?"
"It has depth and substance. From the very beginning, it alludes to the many shortcomings of Ming Dynasty officialdom."
"The story of a fishmonger's rise to fame... I remember that Mr. Xu's ancestors were fishermen?"
"He's not using himself as his prototype, is he?"
Hearing this, Shangguan Yan'er, who was originally indignant because of the plan of her family elders, showed a long-lost smile.
"There are a few things he said here that I really like."
"For example, this sentence: Yuan Fang, I want to eat fish."
"Did he say this to Captain Li before attacking the Jinqian Gang?"
Hearing Shangguan Yan'er's words, Zhu Youwei was stunned at first, and then replied: "A picture suddenly appeared in my mind."
"Giggle!"
After the two girls giggled, Zhu Youwei put away the newspaper and said, "The Tianfeng Clan intends to arrange a marriage between you and the Northern Marquis. This matter..."
"Your Majesty, I knew nothing about this matter before."
"I know, there's no need to be so nervous. The direct descendants of the Northern Marquis happen to be stationed at the Tianfeng clan's territory. I understand their thoughts."
"The Heavenly Master has already taken charge of this matter. He keeps asking me to ask you whether it's a civil or military refusal."
"I hope the refusal will be straightforward."
"understood."
After saying this, Zhu Youwei frowned and said, "Logically, Xu Qing should have gone to the palace to report today! Where is he?"
"Your Majesty."
"What's the matter?"
"Captain Xu Wu is engaging in a debate with the scholars outside the palace gates!"
"what?"
After the female official narrated in vivid and moving detail what had just happened outside the palace gate, Zhu Youwei's hearty laughter could be heard again in the imperial study.
"I like Xu Qing's straightforwardness."
"Yan'er..."
"My subordinate is here."
"I have ordered the cavalry captain Xu Wu to bring irrefutable evidence to the palace immediately."
After saying this, Zhu Youwei suddenly stood up and said in a domineering tone, "I promise him..."
"When praising or worshipping, one does not need to call out one's name; when entering the court, one does not need to rush; when entering the palace, one does not need to wear a sword or shoes; when meeting the king, one does not need to kneel!"
'boom.'
Even Shangguan Yan'er was shocked when she heard these words.
This is not just the emperor's grace, it is simply the culmination of all the emperor's favors.
Do not know why……
After hearing this, Shangguan Yan'er felt a little sad.
Her most beloved lover is coveted by the most powerful empress in the world.
And more importantly, everything about him was reported by himself.
At this moment, Shangguan Yan'er regretted it.
