Chapter 378: Capricious
In order to prevent Emperor Qianyuan's intention to make the ten princes the crown princes, the courtiers rushed to tell each other and discussed with like-minded people, and at the same time, the adult princes also entered the palace one after another to discuss the authenticity of the news with their biological mothers.
The birth mother of the ten princes died early, and there was no support from the grandfather's family, the most important thing is a milk doll, and the qualifications are not visible, whether they can live to adulthood and stand, it is not known, the emperor actually ignored the handsome and mature many older sons, and set up the ten princes as the crown prince, which is a sign of disaster for the country in anyone's eyes.
Even Emperor Qianyuan had never done such a ridiculous thing and ignored the country.
Nine out of ten people in the court were against it.
This result was not expected by Emperor Qianyuan, but he still issued an edict to the cabinet in the midst of many opposition, preparing an edict for the ten princes to be the crown prince, choosing a good day and an auspicious day, and announcing it to the world.
The folds of the courtiers' dead admonitions flew like snowflakes towards Emperor Qianyuan's imperial case, and together they were piled up higher than people.
The first thing Yin Boyi faced when he was promoted to the first assistant was to register the prince, which should have been his first appearance as the first assistant, but the candidate for the crown prince of Emperor Qianyuan was too amazing.
Even if Yin Boyi had been prepared, he couldn't suppress these many objections.
Shoufu has unlimited scenery, under one person, above 10,000 people, but at the same time, Shoufu is also sandwiched between the emperor and courtiers.
As long as Emperor Qianyuan sat on the dragon chair, Yin Boyi didn't dare to think of coercing the emperor with the power of hundreds of officials, let alone opening the mode of a strong first assistant.
The first problem in front of him now is to prevent Emperor Qianyuan from enrolling the ten princes as crown princes?
To be honest, he really didn't dare to stop Emperor Qianyuan and appease the courtiers to obey orders, but he couldn't do it for a while. Yin Boyi regretted that he pressed his predecessor Shoufu too hard. As soon as he took office, he had to deal with this obvious mishandling. It's going to be a big deal to capsize.
"陛xià."
"Yin Qing entered the palace to persuade me to take back my life?"
After Emperor Qianyuan threw out the news that the tenth prince was the crown prince, he really ate well, slept soundly, and leisurely set up a stool on the shore of the Yuhuayuan Lake, throwing a fishing rod and fishing, regardless of Yin Boyi's dark eye circles.
Yin Boyi was wearing a first auxiliary official robe, and he had lost a lot of weight recently. It seems that the official robe is more lenient, "The minister does not dare to disobey the order, the so-called name is justified, the minister implores His Majesty Xià to choose a mother for the ten princes, and implores His Majesty Xià ......"
Poof, Yin Boyi knelt down, "Choose the tenth prince and concubine to be in the middle palace, the emperor, the middle palace is unstable, and the storage position is unstable." The world is unstable. ”
The mother concubine of the tenth prince became the queen, at least the courtiers would have much less opposition. After all, the son-in-law inherits the heir, and the son-in-law inherits the throne completely defensible in terms of etiquette.
Yin Boyi waited for a long time, didn't hear Emperor Qianyuan either agree or oppose, quietly looked up, Emperor Qianyuan was full of interest to put bait on the hook, Yin Boyi thought of the courtiers jumping up and down, eager to grab their hair to let the emperor change his mind, their allegiance to the emperor, the emperor who opened the prosperous era of the dynasty, is more interested in bait than the prince.
"Your Majesty ......" Yin Boyi whispered: "Don't you play too difficult?" It's hard to do this. ”
The infinitely aggrieved Lord Shoufu made Emperor Qianyuan look sideways, "I didn't expect Yin Qing to be a wonderful person." No wonder, no wonder, Wang Jinzhi chose you to be your in-laws, strictly speaking...... You and I are also in-laws. ”
Hmph, Emperor Qianyuan threw off the fishing line, the bait was like water again, Emperor Qianyuan clenched the fishing rod without moving, staring at the ripples on the water, "I regard Aze as the closest son and nephew, Jiang Jinzhi as my in-laws, I know that officialdom pays attention to each other's in-laws, Yin Qing, for the sake of being fellow in-laws, are you helping me?" ”
“……”
Yin Boyi never thought that His Majesty the Emperor would be able to say such a thing 'shamelessly', in-laws? What kind of in-law is he?
Just like Emperor Qianyuan, who is full of chest, how can he use others to help?
Yin Boyi advised the empress not because he was worried that Emperor Qianyuan would be forced to change his mind by the courtiers, but because he wanted to ease the courtiers' hostility towards the emperor and keep the career and official position of his colleagues.
Emperor Qianyuan is not visible, but if he starts, he will not show mercy.
"The minister doesn't dare to be His Majesty's in-laws." Yin Boyi's face was serious, and he kowtowed: "The minister only asks His Majesty to understand the courtier's loyalty." ”
"陛xià."
Huai En sent away the little eunuch who reported the news, and glanced at Yin Shoufu, "Lord Wang asks to see you." ”
The corners of Emperor Qianyuan's mouth hooked, and he teased: "Sure enough, the officials protect each other, and the in-laws help each other, Yin Qing just entered the palace, and Wang Jinzhi arrived." ”
"The minister doesn't dare to connect with Lord Wang, please see your majesty."
"I don't believe it." Emperor Qianyuan seemed to be very interested in scaring Yin Boyi, and said lightly: "How many days have you not seen me alone until Wang Jinzhi?" I was invited several times, but he refused me because of his busy government affairs. ”
Yin Boyi wiped the sweat from his forehead, knowing Emperor Qianyuan's bad taste, he stubbornly said: "The minister has never met Lord Wang. ”
"Yin Qing is not honest and dares to deceive me."
"Minister...... Can't. ”
Is it easy to be a first assistant? Not only did he have to help Emperor Qianyuan take care of the government, but he also had to be pinched and teased by him, Yin Boyi felt that he must be the most tragic Shoufu, and in the face of an emperor who always did not follow common sense, he would definitely have a short life.
"The imperial examination is about to be tried, so you didn't discuss with Wang Jinzhi who would help...... You love your son-in-law, and you love your son. Emperor Qianyuan said leisurely: "Although I haven't traveled in civilian clothes recently, I also know the capital's opinion on this session, and I have also heard of Wang Duanchun's name. ”
"Ministers don't dare to engage in favoritism."
"What's going on today? Yin Qing didn't dare, didn't dare not leave his mouth. ”
"......" Yin Boyi slapped his head, wasn't he fooled by you?
At this time, Wang Yixin came to Emperor Qianyuan's side gracefully, glanced at the stiff and bitter face of his in-laws, and saw that Emperor Qianyuan was very relaxed, it seemed that his in-laws were choked enough by the emperor.
"Your Majesty, you 'love' Yin Shoufu again."
"Poof."
Emperor Qianyuan sneered, Father-in-law Huaien bit the tip of his tongue, he couldn't laugh, he couldn't laugh, and Yin Boyi, who was kneeling on the ground, had a somewhat messy look at this time, and his heart jumped up to strangle Wang Qixian, who had ruined his ambitions.
Wang Yixin gave a gift, opened the fish basket placed next to Emperor Qianyuan, and sighed twice. "陛xià. The harvest is not very good. ”
Yin Qing kept talking beside him. Don't dare, don't dare, scare away my fish, it's strange that I can harvest well. ”
"Actually, these fish don't have eyesight." Wang Yixin pointed to the lake and said, "Obviously, when I saw that His Majesty was fishing, I should have actively jumped into the fishing basket." ”
Emperor Qianyuan smiled first, then frowned, and raised his hand to knock off the official hat on Wang Yixin's head. "Okay, Wang Jinzhi, you are getting bolder and bigger, dare to mock me?"
"The minister will tell the truth, why don't you dare."
Wang Yixin sat on the ground, he didn't pick up his official hat when he fell off, and his long black hair was coiled, showing a merry and wanton energy, "You have always been dictatorial, but you can be temperamental." If the fish don't jump out, you will order someone to drain the lake. How can they still swim around freely? If you can't save your life, it's better to give up a few fish and let you have a good time than to die at all. ”
Yin Boyi's body was suddenly stunned, this remark has a deep meaning, could it be that the emperor intends to take this opportunity to purge a group of courtiers?
Also, the imperial examination is approaching, and Emperor Qianyuan has no shortage of talents, compared with the courtiers who are more or less involved with the princes, the fresh, and dreamy of serving the country is more in line with Emperor Qianyuan's appetite, and he is more loyal to Emperor Qianyuan.
Although Emperor Qianyuan was capricious, he was definitely the master of one step, ten steps, and a hundred steps.
Emperor Qianyuan's eyes were deep, he took away the relaxation of Fang Cai, and spread the momentum around him, Yin Boyi's heart tightened, and he couldn't help but shrink his body, the majesty of the emperor seemed to be able to freeze the lake, would Wang Yixin, who was loyal to the storm, not be able to stand it......
"If I appoint Wang Qing as the chief examiner of the examination, what do you want?"
"The minister is a relative and does not avoid suspicion." Wang Yixin said: "Your Majesty, the courtier is not talented, but he has studied hard for many years, and he has been guided by a famous teacher. ”
The implication is that Wang Yixin will be the main exam, and Wang Duanchun will not avoid the exam.
Yin Boyi was frightened, it was obvious that Emperor Qianyuan was not joking, Wang Yixin was so...... So not afraid of the wrath of the emperor?
"Hahaha."
Emperor Qianyuan threw down the fishing rod and laughed and pulled up Wang Yixin, who was sitting on the ground, "I cherish it, naturally I will not let your reputation be damaged, and besides, with your talent and temperament, you will be the main exam...... I'd better save my worries, save the top three you picked out for me, follow you, be bold and reckless, and make me unable to live in peace. ”
"The minister is not so confused."
"It's hard to say."
Emperor Qianyuan snorted coldly, "In the past, you boasted that you were high and annoying, but now you don't like it, I can only tolerate one Wang Jinzhi." ”
The examiner's preferences had an impact on the lifters when they were in high school, and Emperor Qianyuan's words were slightly exaggerated, but they were not true.
Yin Qing also got up.
"Thank you."
As soon as Yin Boyi stood up, he heard Emperor Qianyuan say: "I understand your loyalty, and I know very well that you have worked hard for me. But...... I don't want to be the queen again, I broke my oath to my mother and abolished the Gu family's throne, and then I can't be the queen, I have no face to see my mother, and I don't think anyone is qualified to be my queen, although the crown prince can reduce the opposition of the courtiers, but I am not willing to take this step back, I value that the tenth prince is still young, and I can teach him little by little. ”
"I take a step back today, and someone will let me retire tomorrow, which is not a good thing for the Ten Princes, I named him the crown prince, I really want to wait for him to grow up and hand over the dynasty to him, not an expedient move. The idea of the tenth prince as the crown prince will not change, Yin Qing is my first assistant, try to let the courtiers understand that I am the emperor, they are courtiers, whatever I say, it is what it is! ”
Emperor Qianyuan has the power, but he is so capricious and disobedient? Hang up the crown and go.

In the lively capital, a group of people is particularly conspicuous, an elegant and steady young man riding on a horse to escort the carriage forward, the carriage is marked with the family emblem of the Wenwu Marquis' Mansion, passers-by have sideways glances, and there are discussions, "One of the top three princes has returned to Beijing?" ”
"He should come back, if he doesn't come back, he won't be able to catch up with the imperial examination."
Wang Duanhan came out of the teahouse, and happened to see Wang Duanchun, who was calm and wealthy, and the hatred and jealousy in his heart couldn't be suppressed, it should be his...... Suddenly, his eyes were dark, and he was dragged away, and when he regained the light, he lost his voice; "Gu ...... Gu Sanshao? (To be continued......)
