Chapter 39 Each Planning Their Own

 

 

Outside the Shangyang Palace.

The eunuch on duty stopped Zhang Zhengyang and stood on the steps.

“Lord Zhang, His Majesty is already asleep. If there’s anything, you can submit a memorial in the imperial court tomorrow.”

“I have something important to report. Please report it, Eunuch Xu.”

Zhang Zhengyang looked at the brightly lit palace and heard the sounds of singing and dancing. From time to time, there were women chasing and laughing.

Eunuch Xu said, “We don’t dare to disturb His Majesty’s rest. Lord Zhang, please leave.”

“I request an audience with Your Majesty!”

 

Zhang Zhengyang knelt outside the palace gate with tears streaming down his face. He kept begging to see His Majesty. He kept knocking his head against the ground. Blood oozed from his forehead.

A long while passed.

There was no response from the palace. Zhang Zhengyang’s expression changed from firm to miserable. After kowtowing three times, he got up and left with difficulty.

 

“I’ll take my leave!”

In the palace.

Forty to fifty beautiful palace maids were dancing and playing in the hall. Emperor Yongxing was not on the throne in front of them.

After Zhao Yuan ascended the throne, his dynasty was called Yongxing. This year was still the 18th year of Hongchang, and next year would be the year of Yongxing.

Eunuch Xu quickly arrived at the small pavilion in the rear hall. He entered and knelt down. “Your Majesty, Minister Zhang has left the palace.”

Emperor Yongxing leaned against the soft couch. More than twenty people stood on his left and right like stars surrounding the moon. They were all high officials. On his left was the Minister of War, Liang Dong. On his right was the Minister of Personnel, Xie Wei.
