Chapter 37: On the Great Yan Terrace (Qingyun List Plus Update)
Zheng Yusong, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, also entered the palace immediately after learning the news of the prince's return to the palace, but when he walked to the Taiji Gate, he was informed by a public announcement that the emperor and the prince had gone to Dayantai to play chess. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Zheng Yusong secretly said "Oops" and immediately rushed to Dayantai.
When he arrived at the foot of Dayan Terrace, he found that there were dozens of brocade guards standing at the entrance, and when he looked up, he saw that there were also many brocade guards standing on the stairs and rooftops.
Isn't the emperor's position like this clearly dealing with the crown prince? Zheng Yusong frowned and strode towards the brocade guards.
"I have something to see Your Majesty." Zheng Yusong said.
"Your Majesty has ordered that no one be seen until the game of Go is finished." The leader of the brocade guard replied.
The other brocade guards also gathered in a row, blocking Zheng Yusong outside.
Zheng Yusong said angrily: "Presumptuous. He continued: "The stakes are very high, and if it is delayed, the consequences are not something we can afford to bear." ”
Jin Yiwei had no choice, so he had to go to Dayantai to report to the emperor.
The emperor smiled slightly when he heard this, glanced at the prince, and said, "It seems that the Ministry of Industry still cares about you." ”
At this time, the crown prince was dizzy from a high fever, and he could collapse at any time, and when he heard the emperor say this, he reluctantly responded: "He also cares about Your Majesty." ”
The emperor chuckled, stared at the chessboard and said to the visitor: "Tell him to wait below first, and if he can't wait, he will hand the fold up." ”
The crown prince still looked the same as usual, as if nothing could affect him.
Zheng Yusong saw that the emperor refused to see him, and knew that the latter was determined to finish this game of chess, and he couldn't help but be anxious.
He was afraid that the crown prince would accidentally enter the bureau set up by the emperor.
In this game of chess, the prince will never win.
Zheng Yusong paced under the Dayan platform. Of course, he was not willing to leave, and he was ready to ask for another meeting later.
Over there, the head of the cabinet, Yun Yiting, and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Miyazawa Tetsu, were also hurrying to the palace.
They met at the noon gate, and the two entered the palace together.
"Now they estimate that it has been more than a quarter of an hour." Tetsu Miyazawa said.
"Well, I guess Your Majesty won't allow us to go to Dayantai now, but we have to intervene before they decide the winner." Yun Yiting said as he walked, his face solemn.
The two went directly to Shuiyun Pavilion under the guidance of the palace maid sent by Queen Jingzhuang.
Empress Jingzhuang, who was already sweating in a hurry, was like a savior when she heard the news of their arrival, and immediately greeted her.
Queen Jingzhuang couldn't care about her noble status anymore, so she knelt down towards them and said, "Please save the prince." ”
The two hurriedly reached out to help the queen up.
"The emperor and His Royal Highness are father and son after all, and they will always leave some affection for their subordinates, don't worry too much about the queen." Yun Yiting comforted.
Queen Jingzhuang's tears rippled, and she wanted to stop talking.
She couldn't help but worry. Her husband, even though she had been with him for twenty years, still couldn't quite grasp his mind.
After thinking about it, Yun Yiting said again: "According to the minister's opinion, Your Majesty's move is very likely to test His Highness." ”
"I hope so." Empress Jingzhuang replied angrily while wiping her tears.
Tetsuya Miyazawa comforted him gently: "Your Highness is a person who can bend and stretch, and he is steady and calm, he will definitely be able to think clearly about the intention of His Majesty's game of chess, and the queen is not in a hurry." ”
"The opinion of the two is ......," asked Empress Jingzhuang.
"It is His Highness himself who can really save His Highness." Yun Yiting said, and then added: "All we can do is stop the situation from going in a bad direction. ”
So Yun Yiting decided to wait until the end of this game of chess before intervening.
Yun Yiting didn't want to offend the emperor because of the prince now, but he didn't want the prince to have anything to do either.
Tetsuya Miyazawa said, "The minister also agrees with Lord Yun's opinion. However, it may be necessary for the queen to come forward at that time. ”
The queen nodded straight and said, "This is nature. ”
As long as she can save the prince, she can do anything now.
The two of them stood by the window with the queen, closely watching the movements on the Dayan platform.
By the time he got to midfield, the prince was already sure of winning, he knew how he could go, and he knew that he could lose how he went.
It's just that he knows very well that even if he is fully capable of winning this game, he will deliberately lose it, if he thinks about it not only himself.
He groaned slightly, and put a son in a position where he could give the emperor a chance.
The emperor was quite surprised at first, he thought that the crown prince would take advantage of the victory and pursue. He didn't know if the prince's move was intentional or unintentional. He looked at the crown prince and saw that the latter was looking intently at the chessboard, his face undisturbed.
This is really not the demeanor that a young prince should have.
Looking at the calm son in front of him, the emperor didn't know whether to be happy or worried.
But the emperor quickly came to his senses, and he neatly placed the white zi in his hand at the exit that could block the prince's move.
The prince thought for a moment, and when he flickered in a corner that was almost ignored, the situation immediately reversed.
The emperor was amazed again.
I have to admit that the prince seems to have a slight advantage over him in terms of layout and strategy.
But the crown prince sometimes makes one or two foolish moves, giving the emperor the opportunity to chase and kill and encircle and suppress. I don't know if he did it intentionally or unintentionally.
And when the emperor wants to chase after him, he will suddenly fight back, and he can turn the situation around every time, which has to be admired for the concealment of his tricks and the ingenuity of the layout.
The emperor supported his forehead, and he was more and more unsure of this son's thoughts.
But the emperor is also a person who refuses to admit defeat, and he is also good at strategy, so every time he falls into a crisis, he can skillfully resolve it.
As a result, this game of chess was played with thrilling and clever moves.
Towards the end, the emperor gradually gained the upper hand.
The onlookers who knew chess thought that the prince had won the game.
The expression on the emperor's face also became very serious and complicated.
The air was filled with tension and invisible smoke.
The spectators didn't even dare to take a breath.
At this moment, a brocade guard came to the emperor and reported: "Your Majesty, the first assistant of the cabinet, Yun Yiting, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Zheng Yusong, and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Miyazawa Zhe, ask to see you. ”
The emperor said coldly: "Didn't I already have an order to finish this game of chess and see people again?" ”
The brocade guard hurriedly said: "The little ones also told them this, but they have to see you now, they have been kneeling at the entrance of Dayantai for nearly two quarters of an hour." ”
The emperor waved his hand impatiently and said, "Then let them continue to kneel." Then he said to the other Jinyi guards: "Strictly guard the entrance of Dayantai and don't let them in." ”
The prince was silent, and there was no expression on his face.
The game continues.
But before half an hour later, the brocade guard who had come to report came in a hurry, and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the queen mother has also come, and she is also kneeling at the entrance, saying that she must see you now." ”
The emperor suddenly laughed, but the laughter was a little strange, and people couldn't tell whether it was a happy smile or a bitter smile.
