A woman in gorgeous clothes appeared outside the door, leading several palace maids in.

This woman looks nearly thirty years old and has a beautiful round face. She is just short and fat, and she doesn't have a strong aura on her body. Instead, her eyes reveal a bit of timidity.

A palace maid next to her seemed very smart. After seeing the dazed prime minister of the dynasty, she shouted loudly: "Bold, don't you see the birthday concubine?"

There was no empress dowager or queen in the current Ming Dynasty, but there was a long-lasting concubine who was quite favored by Jiajing. She was the beautiful woman who burned the Yongshou Palace with Jiajing back then.

"I'm just paying homage to the Birth Princess!"

Several cabinet ministers, including Li Chunfang, had never seen the Birthday Concubine. However, after learning about the other party's identity, everyone present also politely politely said.

Xu Jie naturally wanted to give a tribute, but when he knelt down, his heart was also following the lightning. He turned his head and looked at Lin Qingran secretly, knowing that all this was Lin Qingran's masterpiece again.

The reason why he was able to call Zhang Juzheng over was because he was the chief minister who was by Jiajing and also received the support of the Sili Supervisor Huang Jin.

However, in this inner city, this longevity concubine is undoubtedly more qualified to be with Jiajing than him and more qualified to control the pass to the Forbidden City.

Xu Jie felt uncomfortable. He knew that he had miscalculated again this time. He had calculated Chen Hong and was also wary of King Yu, but he had never considered this birthday concubine.

But he never thought that this seemingly insignificant mistake made Lin Qingran take advantage of a big loophole, causing the great situation he had worked hard to create to waste.

The courageous palace maid nodded slightly to Concubine Shou, and Concubine Shou said as if she was following the script: "The imperial physician has already said that the emperor is critically ill now, and it is probably difficult for him to survive today! I, a woman, don't know anything. You five ministers will discuss the subsequent matters!"

"I will receive the order!"

Xu Jie felt quite uncomfortable, but he could not refute it, so he had to respond obediently.

Concubine Shou glanced at the palace maid beside her, and the palace maid nodded gently. She then walked into the Qianqing Palace, but there was no trace of sadness on her face.

Seeing the Shoufei leaving slowly, Gao Gong stood up from the ground and immediately said sarcastically: "Master Yuanfu, you can't compare to the Shoufei's general idea!"

Li Chunfang also stood up from the ground, but looked at Xu Jie in a complicated manner and found that Xu Jie did not trust him as much as he imagined. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of the imperial edict of Shou Concubine, how could he have followed Gao Gong and Guo Pu to break into the Qianqing Palace with him?

Xu Jie was repeatedly ridiculed by Gao Gong, his face was gloomy and terrifying, but he said, "I followed the emperor's last wishes, and the will I drafted is in line with the rules of association!"

this……

After hearing Xu Jie's answer, Guo Pu and Li Chunfang couldn't help but look at each other. Xu Jie was trying to protect the legitimacy of the newly drafted will.

"Master Yuan Fu, if the emperor really wants to issue a last order, it will take effect only if two important officials are present. When the officials come in, you will only tell me orally, and Zhang Taiyue writes here. This is a chaotic act!" Lin Yanran's face turned right and he immediately expressed his position.

Naturally, he could not admit the will drawn by Xu Jie, and he knew that Xu Jie actually wanted to defend this "political fruit". However, when things came to this point, how could he let Xu Jie succeed?

The reason why he just waited outside the door for so long was to wait for Gao Gong and the other two to come, so that Xu Jie had no chance to deny it. However, the plan was still not satisfactory, and Gao Gong and the other two came a little slower.

When Zhang Juzheng heard Xu Jie's statement, he couldn't help but feel a little moved: "I..."

"Sir Zhang, are you trying to say that you just listened to the emperor's last words together in front of the bed? Don't blame me for not thinking about the friendship between my former colleagues. As soon as these words were said, you were really in chaos!" Lin Qingran looked at Zhang Juzheng who was about to move and put pressure on him.

"Zhang Taiyue, don't make mistakes!" Gao Gong had some good impression of Zhang Juzheng and warned seriously.

Zhang Juzheng faced the pressure from the two dynasty bosses, and thought of the serious consequences of the facts, and sweat beads oozed out of his fair forehead.

Although he wanted to stand up and uphold the legitimacy of the memorials and also wanted to take the achievements of participating in drafting the will, he understood more clearly the serious consequences of such perjury.

After all, he could not withstand this pressure, or had not destroyed the conscience of repaying the Ming Dynasty, but turned his head in embarrassment and looked at Xu Jie.

Xu Jie knew that he was too risky to act alone, especially Zhang Juzheng was still a little bit too hot, so he couldn't help but breathe a breath of turbid air and asked Lin Qingran directly: "Gemaster Lin, what do you want?"

Guo Pu and others also looked at Lin Qingran. If Lin Qingran had not contacted Concubine Shou, then the will was completely based on Xu Jie's will. The four pavilions had already been kicked out by Xu Jie. Especially Gao Gong, at this time, he would have to curse the villain Xu Jie outside the palace gate.

"Master Yuan Fu, it's not that the subordinate officials want to do anything, but that your move is actually disrupting the laws and regulations of the Ming Dynasty, and it is also damaging the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. What do you want?" Lin Qingran saw Xu Jie letting go, but he started to attack.

As the past dynasties were different, the Ming Dynasty's will mostly be written by civil officials. Not to mention the original will of the great ancestors, the Zhengde's will of the previous term was also written by the cabinet ministers, thus completely denying Zhengde's reform of the Beijing army.

It’s just that facts are true, but Xu Jie threw out other cabinet ministers this time and even abandoned the tradition of the two important officials present. This is undoubtedly a big or small tail.

Xu Jie didn't expect Lin Junran to be so aggressive, so he responded calmly: "I am the chief minister of the dynasty and have been with the emperor these days. The will he drafted is also in accordance with the emperor's will!"

"Prayer is held every day, and the city and buildings are prosperous every year, and the worship of the suburbs is not close. The rituals of the wise and long-term dismissal are discontinued, which is really the emperor's last wish? If this is true, why is the Guyu Palace still under construction?" Lin Qingran immediately questioned.

Gao Gong came to the table to look at the will of the pen and ink. Zhang Juzheng originally wanted to stop it, but when Gao Gong's eyes glared, Zhang Juzheng did not dare to move.

Gao Gong glanced at the content of the will and said jokingly: "Master Yuanfu, I think it's for you! If this will be published like this, I'm afraid everyone in the world will blame the emperor for not being wrong, and everyone should think of you!"

It is not a slap in the face, but it doesn't work in Gao Gong at all. As an old man in the officialdom, he can't see the mystery of this will. This is simply a way for Xu Jie to win over the hearts of the people, which is to directly reveal Xu Jie's selfish side.

Since Xu Jie defeated Yan Song, he has not been in such a passive situation for a long time, but he continued to say with a gloomy face: "Although this is not all the emperor's intentions, the emperor has expressed his regret. As the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty, I have the obligation to rectify the emperor's mistakes in governing during his reign!"

"If you really want to correct the emperor's fault in governing, you should take this opportunity to rectify the administration, rather than focusing on pardoning officials like you, so that the Ming Dynasty will remain in chaos!" Gao Gong immediately retorted.
