"A few ministers came to me, is there anything urgent?" The Emperor asked. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Your Majesty, this Huainan disaster relief has ended, but the four princes are still in Huainan, I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate, although the disaster is basically over at this time, but there are still a lot of people displaced, this person is complicated, if the four princes are hurt by anything, it will not be good, especially the recent actions of the four princes are too big, we are all worried about the death of those officials, you must know that they have been operating there for many years, the four princes are still young, I am afraid they are not the opponents of those people, even if these people are caught now, but who knows if the other party will have any follow-up moves, the ministers and others feel that this time the officialdom corruption case can be sent to another minister to try it, and the status of the four princes is noble, so it is safer to go back to Kyoto first. Several ministers said.

In fact, they also know that it will not work to directly say bad things about the four princes, or to let the emperor order to stop the four princes, but they can change their thinking, for the good of the four princes, then it will be easy to succeed, and the four princes have almost arrested some serious crimes, so when the four princes are transferred back, this matter can be closed, although there are still some losses, but it can still be within the acceptable range, as for who is sent next, it doesn't matter, as long as it is not the four princes, They all have a way to keep the impact of this matter within the current range.

They can't get the four princes, everyone knows that the four princes are selfless and treat everyone equally, if they go to intercede, most of the four princes will not agree, so the way they think of the bottom of the kettle is to summon the four princes back and return to Kyoto, the four princes can't interfere in the affairs of Huainan, because of the emperor's order, they have nothing to do with the interference of the four princes, but if the four princes come back, the situation will be different, although the four princes are still princes, You can still make suggestions to the emperor, but it's much better than the four princes in Huainan.

As long as the four princes are not in Huainan, they have a hundred ways to round this matter.

The emperor originally knew the purpose of these ministers, because he decided to support the four princes, so the emperor actually didn't want to see these ministers, although these ministers are still loyal, but in fact, everyone has their own careful thoughts, the emperor is not the kind of naïve person, it is impossible for all people to be loyal, and everything they have can be dedicated to the superiors, so the emperor often ignores some things about these ministers.

However, the emperor finally decided to meet them, so as not to annoy them again, these ministers were also relieved when they heard that the emperor was willing to meet them, since the emperor was willing to meet them, it means that the emperor did not approve of the four princes' approach, if the emperor also agreed, he would definitely not see them, as long as he saw the emperor, there would be a chance, and this was what they said.

Originally, the emperor didn't care much about his attitude, but after listening to their words, he found that there was still a great risk in it, although he sent someone to protect the four princes, but in case those officials really jumped over the wall in a hurry, it would be bad to hurt the four princes. Of course, the emperor was even more annoyed with these officials, and these ministers didn't expect that the excuse that they wanted the four princes to come back suddenly touched the emperor's back, so although the emperor sent a decree to let the four princes come back, the next development was completely unexpected by several ministers.

"Well, what you said is very reasonable, I am a little negligent, I will immediately send a decree to let the four princes return to Beijing, but these officials, not only corrupt and take bribes, but now they actually want to hurt the four princes, and the crime is added to one degree, even the punishment of the nine clans is not too much, I want to see, how powerful these people are, they can still turn the sky upside down, spread my will, convene the Huainan garrison to arrest these officials, and those who dare to disobey will be killed, I want to see how arrogant these officials are in my country." The emperor said.

As soon as the emperor's words came out, a few people felt wrong, how could it be different from what they thought, shouldn't it be that the four princes were summoned back, and then sent people to go, turning big things into small things and small things? Why does it feel like it's getting worse now? Actually going to send troops to encircle and suppress, although the four princes were also anxious about a few teams of soldiers and horses before, but that was just a deterrent, now it seems that the emperor is going to move seriously, they really want to slap themselves at this time, they are really smart and really misunderstood, what do the four princes are threatened, doesn't this make the emperor angry, so what will happen to those officials.

If they were given a chance, even if they didn't come to see the emperor, they shouldn't have said this, I didn't think of this before, I didn't expect the emperor to attach so much importance to the four princes, I knew that this was the case, they shouldn't have come to the palace, it's too late to say anything now, can you still say to the emperor, they were joking just now, the four princes are very safe, and those officials don't dare to hurt the four princes if they have ten guts?

If they slap their faces like this, they can't say it, and they are the emperor right, and now the emperor is obviously very angry, if they say this again, it will undoubtedly add fuel to the fire, then they will be unlucky. sighed in his heart, it's not that they don't work hard, but there is really no way, what will happen to those officials in Huainan depends on their creation.

After the emperor's order was passed down, it set off a greater shock, the emperor is supporting the meaning of the four princes, originally some people who still wanted to ask for love have also stopped, and now the emperor is determined to help the four princes, and the four princes will definitely not let go of those corrupt officials, so now we have to see how much they will lose, how to minimize the loss. However, although this is a test, it is also an opportunity, Huainan has vacated a lot of official positions after this time, they can make a fuss about it, after all, there are not many people under the four princes, so it is naturally impossible to divide too many official positions, and it is not to cheapen them.

If you think about it this way, you may be able to profit from it, but there are too many people looking at these official positions, and they don't dare to guarantee that they will be able to grab them, so naturally they will have to go through a struggle. Those who were still waiting for the ministers in Kyoto to save them in Huainan did not expect that these people were now thinking about how to divide their current positions, if they knew, they would definitely not have been writing to ask for help like now.
