Cars and horses were moving from Caishi Street to Yongdingmen Street, heading towards the inner city. ¡ü Song Nan did not ride a horse, but shared a car with Zhu Fengtong. Both of them were silent. Song Nan's eyes were looking at the street outside the car window. The Jinyi Guards and regimental soldiers were fully armed to block the market to ensure that there would be no aftermath of yesterday's incident in the capital. Although Song Nan publicly announced that he was forgetting the blame last night, But in fact, the related searches and arrests have never stopped, and Song Nan has no intention of stopping it. All of this must be done. It is not enough to punish Yang Tinghe alone, but every corner of him must be dealt with. All the roots were dug out, and even if they were spared, they still had to make a voice to impeach Yang Tinghe. Zhu Fengtong's eyes were always looking at Song Nan's side face. The emotions in his eyes were complicated and difficult to understand. They were entangled in love and seemed to be a little worried. Finally Zhu Fengtong broke the silence and called softly: "Mr. Song." Song Nan turned around and saw the complicated emotions in Zhu Fengtong's eyes. She smiled and reached out to hold Zhu Fengtong's hand and said, "What?" Zhu Fengtong's delicate hand held Song Nan's behind her back. Holding his hand, he said softly: "Mr. Song, I don't blame you for talking too much, but I am very worried and uneasy. Can you ask Mr. Lang a few words?" Song Nan smiled and said: "Why not? Ask, yes. If you want to ask anything, just ask." Zhu Fengtong lowered his head and finally summoned the courage to ask: "Mr. Song, what do you think about the future of the Ming Dynasty? I know that you are not a person who loves power at heart. , but now that you are number one among ten thousand people, besides fulfilling your promise to Princess Kang Ning, do you have any other ideas?" Song Nan was silent for a moment and whispered: "To tell you the truth, I have made it this far? Although this step is to fulfill the promise I made, I have actually been pushed step by step to get to where I am now; I never expected this situation today, nor did I expect that the emperor would pass away so soon. For the selection of the new emperor, Yang Tinghe and I went to war. The emperor's body was still cold, but we went to war. This is not my victory, but the sorrow of the Ming Dynasty. " Zhu Fengtong said softly: "But it is a fait accompli, you. What are you going to do in the future?" Song Nan stared at Zhu Fengtong's beautiful eyes and said, "I know what you want to ask. I'm afraid your question is also what many people want to ask. Many people are thinking that the Ming Dynasty is no longer the Ming Dynasty. Well, after the new emperor came to the throne, he was just a puppet supported by me, and I, Song Nan, was the powerful official who controlled the government. From now on, this world will be my, Song Nan's, right? " Zhu Fengtong didn't answer, but her expression Obviously he confirmed Song Nan's statement. "It's not just the subjects and common people who have this idea. In fact, the emperor had a long conversation with me before he died. He asked me to swear that I would never seize the Ming Dynasty and have no rebellious intentions. It can be seen that the emperor has hidden worries in his heart. But the emperor still gave me the responsibility of assisting the new emperor in his will. It can be seen that the emperor knows me better than anyone else in the world, including my family, including you. " Zhu Fengtong said in panic. : "Mr. Song, that's not what the Nu family meant. The original intention of the Nu family is to remind you that since ancient times, powerful ministers have never had a good ending. Although they gain power for a while, there will inevitably be a day of reckoning. The Nu family wants to tell Song Lang that in the future Even if you have the power, you should be careful in your actions. I'm sorry, what I say may not be pleasant to your ears, but this is what I really want to say to you. You know that I love Song Lang very much, love deeply, and care about him deeply. Maybe I'm too talkative, please don't be angry." Song Nan smiled, stretched out her hand, held Zhu Fengtong in her arms, kissed her gently on the face and said, "Who do you think I am? You really do. Your Majesty, you are so careful and taboo when talking to me? I am afraid you are the only one in the Song Dynasty who can tell me these things. You are a knowledgeable person who is not worried about the immediate future. "You are worried about the future, and it is also for my own good. Why should I be angry?" Zhu Fengtong buried his head in Song Nan's arms and said in a low voice, "It's good that you understand. The Nu family is indeed very worried. Now you have a hand in hand?" With heavy troops, high officials, and everything in your favor, the officials in the court will not do anything to you. Moreover, according to the emperor's decree, you have to take charge of the affairs of the court before the new emperor takes charge. In fact, in the future, the court will not do anything to you? Whatever happened, whether right or wrong, will be attributed to you. One day in the future, when the emperor takes charge, all these things will be settled, and all the officials in the court will swarm up, and everyone will push down the wall. This is what the slave family is worried about. No?" Song Nan laughed dumbly and said: "What you said about me, do you think what I did today was an act of rebellion?" Zhu Fengtong said hurriedly: "No, how could the Nu family do it? That¡¯s what you mean?¡± Song Nan said, ¡°Then why did you say something about the future settlement?¡± Zhu Fengtong blushed and said, ¡°The slave¡¯s intention isis¡± Song Nan smiled.He said in a loud voice: "Let me answer it for you. In fact, there is no reason for the liquidation. The first target of the new emperor's pro-government is me. There is no need for any reason. No emperor wants anyone in the court to override him." Above all, there is a powerful minister who controls all the affairs of the court. Regardless of whether he has made any great achievements in the court, as long as the emperor wants to become the emperor, the first thing to do is to overthrow him. There are countless examples of this throughout the ages. To put it bluntly, If you don't kill the powerful ministers, how can the new emperor establish his power and control the world? "Zhu Fengtong nodded and said: "This is what the Nu family means. If you know this, you will know why I talked so much today." Song Nan gently touched her. He said slightly: "I promised the emperor that I will assist the new emperor until he takes charge of the affairs. No one can predict what will happen in the future. In fact, there is no way to protect myself. If I am not afraid of the world, I can use many methods. I "I'm not worried about the future." Zhu Fengtong said softly: "The Nu family knows that you can make the person who sits on the throne obey. Any descendant of the Zhu family can sit in that position, it depends on whether you choose him, but in that case " Song Nan said: "Yes, in that case, I will become a real rebel of the Ming Dynasty. I naturally have the right to choose an emperor who has no power to resist, but I will not do that, and it is impossible to do that. . I will not be a traitor, because I have a promise with the emperor. You know my attitude towards promises, no matter how big or small, but I must do what I promise." Zhu Fengtong smiled and said: "The slave family. I know that Lang Jun is a man who promises a lot of money. Fengtong has learned this before. I think Princess Kangning in the palace also knew that Lang Jun¡¯s promise would be fulfilled, so she always believed that there would be today and waited so hard. "Song Nan turned to look out of the car window and said calmly: "Fengtong, since you talked about these things today, I will tell you what is in my heart. I didn't think about the future at all. It happened ten years later; I admit that I am not a person who can ignore personal life and death, but I am also not a selfish person bound by fame and fortune. It has been more than eight years since I came to Beijing from Yuzhou. , I have seen a lot of things and experienced a lot of things personally. Although I initially struggled for personal success and for the glory of my ancestors and my wife and concubines, the deeper I got involved, the less I felt at ease. The Ming Dynasty was here. Today, if no one is worried about the future of the country, but only worries about the future of the individual, it will be difficult for the Ming Dynasty to revive." Song Nan sighed and turned to look at Zhu Fengtong, who had bright eyes. Zhu Fengtong hugged Song Nan tightly. Arms, eyes blurred, listening to Song Nan continue to speak. "The rise and fall of a dynasty is a small matter, but the implications are huge. The people suffer, and the people of the world suffer. If you see the ruins thousands of miles away from people, if you see the ragged people dying of hunger and cold on the streets on a cold night, you If you see the dead bones on the grassy hillside under the setting sun, you will have the same sigh as me. Since I am in the Ming Dynasty and in my current position, I can't help but think about changing everything in the future. No matter what, I have secretly vowed that in the eight or nine years before the new emperor takes the throne and takes charge, I will use the power in my hands to change the current situation of the Ming Dynasty. At the very least, I must make the world peaceful and the people have food and clothing. Displaced and devastated by war, these things have been lingering in my mind for the past year. I know that I can no longer shake off this sense of responsibility. If I am a commoner and cannot control my own destiny, that's all. , who wants God to put me in this position, then I have to do something. " Zhu Fengtong's face turned crimson, his breathing became rapid, his eyes burst out with a strange look, and he looked at Song Nan for a long time, and finally said softly. Said: "Fengtong did not misjudge the person. Fengtong knows that Song Lang is definitely not a human being. Song Lang, no matter what happens in the future, Fengtong will be by your side. We will live together and die together." Song Nan laughed, He pinched her plump buttocks and said: "I still want to live until the end of my life. Life and death are unlucky. Mingshifang is here. You are home. I will get off the car and go to the palace. I will see you later. You, when everything in the court is settled, I will bring you in in a sedan chair." Zhu Fengtong nodded in agreement. Song Nan stood up to get out of the car. Zhu Fengtong suddenly said: "Song Nan turned around and Zhu Fengtong put his arms around her. On his head and neck, a soft and hot lips kissed Song Nan's mouth. Song Nan turned around and hugged her tightly, kissed her hard, then got off the car and rode away on horseback.
