"Empress, stop like this. This is the Ganqing Palace. Maybe someone will come later. If someone sees it, it will always be... it is always bad." Yang Ning advised helplessly.

Concubine Li seemed to have realized this, and gradually stopped sobbing. She said to Yang Ning with tears in her eyes: "Yang Ning. You... can you not leave?"

Yang Ning sighed and said, "Empress. I think you must understand the benefits of this. A normal man's development is absolutely different from a eunuch. If this secret is really leaked in the future, others will not tell me. What do you think in the heart of the prince? He is now the king of a country. Have you forgotten the lessons of Qin Shihuang's previous actions in history when he dealt with the fake eunuch Lao Ai?"

Concubine Li's face changed. She shook her head upset and said, "No. No. Jun'er has a good relationship with you. He will not hurt you. He..."

Yang Ning shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Empress, don't be stupid. I'm afraid you don't believe this. While the secret has not been revealed yet, it's better for me to get out earlier. You can promise me."

"No." Concubine Li suddenly became angry and acted like a trick. She said angrily: "I don't care. Anyway, I don't want you to leave me. It's really not possible. I, I ask Jun'er to issue an edict to directly remove your internal supervisor..."

Yang Ning was simply a little amused. "My good sister, how can this matter be so strong? There is no reasonable explanation. Do you think others are fools?"

Concubine Li said anxiously: "This is not possible. That is not possible. I can see that. You, you are determined to leave me, right? You are tired of me, right..."

Yang Ning sighed again and said, "Empress, you know that I don't have such a mind, and you still say this to me. Isn't it possible for me to do this? Even if I'm not afraid of death, you have to think about yourself and the prince. If my affairs are exposed, Empress, where is your face? What is the emperor's face?"

Concubine Li could no longer speak. Tears burst out again. After a long period of silence, she said in pain: "Yang Ning, Yang Ning. Since you are about to leave sooner or later, why did you come to provoke me at the beginning... Forget it. If you want to leave, just leave. But... you can't leave now. Jun'er is still young this year. I need to take care of everything behind my back. Stay here to help me. When will Jun'er get older and be able to take charge of the government? You can find a suitable time to leave. How about?"

Yang Ning immediately shook his head and said, "Empress, this is not something that can be delayed. The longer I stay, the easier it is to be discovered. Even if I want to leave, I can't leave..."

"Yang Ning. You don't need to say anything more. This is my biggest concession. Just like that. If something really happens to you in the future, I... I will definitely protect you at all costs."

Concubine Li looked determined. Yang Ning waited for another persuasion. A little eunuch outside the door sang: "The emperor is here..."

Yang Ning was shocked. His first reaction was that Long Qing was coming. Then he saw the plain black veil on Concubine Li. He realized that the current emperor was already Wanli.

Concubine Li gave Yang Ning a resentful blank. Then she hurriedly wiped her tears. At this time, Wanli walked in with a crown and a dragon robe and seal dress. It seemed that she had just finished her morning court.

"Mother, this morning court is so tiring. The children are so tired... Hey, Yang Ning. You are here too." Wanli complained to Concubine Li while walking. In the blink of an eye, he saw Yang Ning and couldn't help but look happy.

"I'm so happy to see the emperor. Long live the emperor." Now Wanli is the real master of the Nine Five. Although Yang Ning was reluctant, he did not dare to neglect it. He went forward to pay a big gift to worship.

"Oh. You, you, get up quickly. Why did you get separated from me if you haven't seen each other for a few days...uh...I'm separated from you." Wanli said with a smile, and then pulled Yang Ning up.

"Hmph. I've become emperors. Why are you still so casual? I forgot how I taught you for my mother." Concubine Li's pretty face turned cold.

Wanli was indeed in awe of his mother. He hurriedly restrained his expression and respectfully saluted Concubine Li. Then he sat aside.

"Emperor, Empress, if there is no order, I will sue you." The goal was not achieved. Yang Ning didn't know whether it was joy or sorrow, but he always had thoughts in his heart, so he wanted to say goodbye and leave.

"Eunuch Yang will stay for the time being. I have something to tell you." Before Wanli could speak, Concubine Li said coldly.

Yang Ning had no choice but to nodded again and said "Yes".

Concubine Li ignored Yang Ning and turned to Wanli and said, "Jun'er. What do you feel when he went to court on the first day today?"

Wanli said with a small mouth: "Mother, it's so tiring to go to court as an emperor. My child has been in court since the time of Mao, and it's almost noon. My child's butt is sore. There are too many officials in our Ming Dynasty. They all reported to me to recognize him. I have recognized him for an hour, let alone other things."

Concubine Li couldn't help but smile and said, "Today is your first morning court. There will naturally be more things. It will gradually get better in the future. You will get used to it slowly. By the way, what's the important thing to go to court today."

Wanli replied: "There are so many things. Like the transfer and appointment of officials from several ministries and officials, the supervision of the imperial tomb of the father Tianshoushan, the suppression of the rebellion of children in Guangxi, etc., those trivial matters. The child followed the instructions of his mother and handed over all the matters to the cabinet for careful handling. The matters of appointment and removal of officials from the court were also followed by the instructions of his mother and only let the cabinet "show the bill" and submit it back to the child and the mother and the cabinet for review."

Concubine Li nodded in praise and said, "Jun'er is doing a good job. You must remember that if you want to be a good emperor, you must learn to properly grasp power and delegate power. For example, the appointment and removal of officials, you must seize it. And like other matters in governing the country, you must learn to appoint wise ministers to deal with it. Of course, you must also learn from it. In this way, even if you don't do anything in your own hands in the future, you can plan and control everything. You will not be deceived by treacherous ministers. Have you written it down?"

"The child remembers the teachings of his mother." Wanli replied respectfully.

Yang Ning listened to the mother-son conversation. On the one hand, he praised Concubine Li's political skills and opinions as a woman. On the other hand, he felt that it was a bit inappropriate. No matter how he said his identity was, he was a "slave". Concubine Li taught Wanli the way to be the king without any hesitation in front of him. He really did not treat himself as an outsider.

"Is there anything else?" Concubine Li asked again.

"There is another thing that is the enthronement of the mother queen as the empress dowager. I don't know much about such things. I just left them to the ministers to discuss."

When Yang Ning heard this, he couldn't help but feel moved. He knew that the "mother" that Wanli said was Empress Chen. I remember that he had heard Concubine Li mention it before. According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, the only one who was qualified to be the Empress Dowager when Wanli became the emperor was Empress Chen, not her biological mother, Concubine Li. Yang Ning still remembered the gloomy expression of Concubine Li at that time. At that time, when Wanli mentioned this, he couldn't help but look at Concubine Li. Sure enough, a trace of lost expression flashed across Concubine Li's face. Yang Ning knew that Concubine Li was extremely eager for the title of the "Empress Dowager". This is naturally understandable. Not to mention Concubine Li is a good reputation and good power. He only said that his son was the emperor. His biological mother could not be named "Empress Dowager". No one would feel comfortable.

Rules are dead, people live. There is a precedent for the two empress dowagers in ancient times. I must try to achieve the wish of Concubine Li. I will leave her sooner or later. Now I will do more things to compensate her. Yang Ning said in his heart.

"Oh. By the way, there is another thing. I'm so angry that the child is so angry." At this point, Wanli looked angry.

Concubine Li calmed down her feelings and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong."

Wanli subconsciously looked at Yang Ning and said hesitantly: "This morning, headed by Gao Gong, many officials from the Six Ministry, as well as the censors of the Censorate and the censors of the Sixth Corps. They jointly submitted a letter to impeach the 'big partner' and... and Yang Ning..."

"What." Concubine Li's pretty face turned cold. She subconsciously looked at Yang Ning. Yang Ning was also a little confused. She has been very low-key and honest recently. She has no place to offend Gao Gong.

"What are they impeaching Feng Bao and Yang Ning?" Concubine Li asked in a cold voice. Anyone could hear her anger deliberately suppressed.

When Wanli saw Concubine Li like this, his tone immediately became cautious: "They accused the 'big partner' in the Sili Prison and Yang Ning for going beyond their power. They were not in charge of the seal eunuch Meng Tong; they also accused the 'big partner' of being rude in front of the imperial court. When the child accepted the ministers' kneeling, he stood on the side of the child without knowing to avoid it. It was really arrogant and rude; and...."

Speaking of this, Wanli subconsciously glanced at Yang Ning before continuing: "There are also several censors and officials from the Sixth Department. They also submitted a memorial to impeach Yang Ning.... He impeached him to organize the fundraising and disaster relief for his mother and mother. He misappropriated the fundraising silver and ate and drank, and even fed his personal pockets..."

Looking at Concubine Li's colder and colder face, Wanli's voice gradually became smaller and smaller.

"Enough."

Concubine Li suddenly shouted angrily and interrupted Wanli's words. Wanli was so scared that she trembled and also scared Yang Ning. When she looked at Concubine Li again, her pretty face was already covered with frost. Two murderous cold lights shot out from the phoenix eyes, which made people feel frightened.

"Okay. It's so good. The old emperor has just been there for a few days. These people have bullied us. It's really against them. It seems that if you don't give them some good looks, they thought that our orphans and widows are so easy to bully." Concubine Li gritted her teeth and showed her fierce momentum.

"Hmph. Didn't they say that Feng Bao and Yang Ning were not in charge of the seal eunuch Meng Tong? Let's take action against him first. Jun'er. You will give up a decree. Meng Tong was dismissed from the position of Supervisor of the Secretariat. It was changed to Yang...well. Feng Bao took over. At the same time, Yang Ning was appointed as the supervisor of the Secretariat East Factory."
