Chapter 244: Can't sit still
I don't know what the emperor thinks this time, it has always been that the family is ugly and cannot be publicized, and his assassination is suspected to be related to King Duan, and he has banned the news in the court, but this time the emperor's granddaughter wants to remove the emperor's grandson to help the prince ascend the throne, but the palace has not issued a gag order. Therefore, Jingli soon learned the cause of this thunderous decree, and everyone was in an uproar, which undoubtedly tore off King Duan's face and stepped on the ground, and King Duan was in danger.
King Ping almost laughed crazy in the mansion, and clapped his hands again and again: Good niece, good niece...
King Duan was demoted to the king of the county, Concubine Xu also lost the title of concubine, and Taishi Xu, who has always been old, also panicked, does the emperor want to attack the Xu family? As a result, he contacted his protΓ©gΓ©s and used all kinds of connections to fold one after another, in a vain attempt to exert pressure to recover the decline at this time.
That's right, pressure. Some officials jumped out one after another, counting Xu Guifei's graceful and elegant, peaceful and tranquil when she was in charge of the harem, and the diligence of Duanjun Wang when he was on an errand, and he vowed to restore the status and glory of the two.
The emperor calmly asked: "Jiarong didn't teach, whose fault is it?" β
Don't ask about her infidelity and injustice, don't ask about her evil thoughts, just say that she has done something wrong. Jiarong's "pass" was written into the ancestral rules by the royal family and courtiers. No matter how much the villain instigates, the excuse of the wicked can't cover up Jiarong's ambition. The emperor's meaning is obvious, Jia Rong is wrong, and her upbringing will be held responsible. She was too wrong, and the punishment was naturally heavy. The things in the Three Character Sutra are the foundation of being a man, what tricks do you "important ministers" want to turn out?
If the emperor caught Jiarong poisoning Xuanyuan Ji, he would be able to be distorted by these people. However, the emperor said. This child has not been taught well, and the adult is punished, what can everyone say? said that she was older, but she herself had a big rebellious mind. The royal daughter is also a foreign daughter, and she must have been instigated by her in-laws. Hehe, these words will be about the same in ten years, a ten-year-old girl, can you find someone else besides her father and grandmother? Stepmother? The time the two have been together for less than ten days combined, and no matter how thick-skinned they are, they are embarrassed to pull out Princess Liu to top the tank. What's more, King Duan's only son was born to Princess Liu. Grandfather? Hehe. They had the audacity to let the emperor punish himself.
Xu Taishi's people were defeated.
King Ping's people looked proud. Sure enough, what the master said was right, since the old man is optimistic about Xuanyuan Ji, then everyone will help him, but he is just a young child. It is not known who killed the deer.
King Ping and Marquis Zhongyong deliberated behind the scenes. How can I completely pull King Duan down. Take advantage of his illness to kill him!
The Emperor was not in the mood to watch them fight. A few days later, the emperor's party was summoned to the palace for secret discussions. The emperor's mind is finally clear and revealed to the world: Zen position!
As soon as the news came out, it was shocking!
The old blood that had been stuffed in Duanjun's chest for days was "poof-" and spit out three feet away. I see, that's it, it's the old man's idea! Xuanyuan Ji is weak and shallow. In a few years, it will only be a child's age. When the old man is gone, can a half-grown child sit firmly?
In the past, King Duanjun still wondered, why did the old man know that Xuanyuan Ji was surrounded by people from King Ping, and he still let them support Xuanyuan Ji with confidence? Aren't you afraid that these people will steal the day and slaughter the cubs? I'm afraid that the old man had this idea at that time, right? Let the little emperor take the throne first, teach him by hand, and all kinds of decrees are signed and implemented by the little emperor, so he will naturally win the hearts of the people. Then slowly hand over the power in his hand to him, and have more time to change the emperor's party to a new object of allegiance. If the old man can help the little emperor to sit firmly in the country for five or six years, and when he is in trouble again, he can only be a chaotic minister and thief, and everyone will be punished if he is unpopular, and the little emperor has his own team, can he still succeed?
King Duan spurted blood again, is he the old man's own son? That little cub is actually the old man's seed, right?
King Ping also vomited blood, not old blood. Instead, when he was angry and wanted to curse, he accidentally bit the tip of his tongue.
"Okay, okay, the old man has a good plan. It turned out that they were all using us as pawns. Hmph, don't look at it to see if that little cub is worth it? β
Marquis Zhongyong rubbed his brows: "The emperor is really good at taking advantage of loopholes." Taking advantage of the fact that the Xu family and the Qian family have become mortal enemies, they really want to support Xuanyuan Ji. It's really careless, careless. β
"Uncle, how do we do it?"
Zhongyong Hou smiled: "I was careless before, but now I have changed." How was the prince back then, not yet..."
At the same time, Xu Taishi measured the king of Duanjun and said, "What about the prince?" Where will his son's good fortune go? β
At some point, the Qian family of the Xu family had the ambition to stop holding each other, and Xuanyuan Ji in the palace was involved in danger several times, was killed and poisoned and assassinated, and all kinds of means emerged one after another. The emperor simply placed him in the side hall of the Qianqing Palace, where he was guarded day and night. Safety is guaranteed.
It's a pity that Mrs. Geng suffered, no matter how much she is Xuanyuan Ji's mother-in-law, she can't enter and leave the Qianqing Palace at will, so she has to carefully shrink in the small courtyard and try to live, and even a sip of water has to be tested again. But her heart is brilliant and colorful. Because she heard the news: The emperor has asked people to make dragon robes according to the size of Xuanyuan Ji!
While collecting these news, Yang Nianci was anxious, running out once a day, mostly to find Xiao Nan, and occasionally returning to her parents' house.
Xuanyuan secretly ran to Xiao Nan, carried it for interrogation for a long time, and put Xiao Nan on a blue nose and swollen face before running to his father-in-law's house thoughtfully.
Xuanyuan Kang is a big ghost, and he instinctively feels that the atmosphere is not right, and obediently does not cause trouble for his father and mother, but he runs diligently to the Wuning Hou Mansion.
Wu Ninghou now sees Xuanyuan Kang sighing and helpless more, and his heart is entangled, if such a good seedling is his own flesh and blood, how good is it, what should he do to have something to do with the royal family?
The palace was a mystery, and there was a constant battle between life and death in secret, and it didn't take long for someone to subtly notice that the camp outside Beijing had unusual behavior. The whole capital seems to be covered by the tense atmosphere emanating from the palace, and the high-ranking families are becoming more and more cautious, in the past, this season was the time when the noble ladies and ladies of the families invited the banquet to publish the post, but now each family detains the children and does not need to go out, and restricts the walking of the subordinates. But the subordinate who was secretly responsible for investigating and delivering the news was in and out of the back door all day.
King Duanjun entered the palace several times and confessed to the emperor. It's a pity that every time the emperor's face is indifferent, and sometimes even reveals his disgust and disdain for being too lazy to perfunctory.
Duanjun Wang's mind sank vigorously, I'm afraid, the old man really gave up on himself, that... What else can I do?
At this moment, King Duanjun got another bad secret letter. The emperor's injuries have gradually improved, and his body is recovering day by day. In fact, there is no need for a secret letter, King Duanjun himself can hear the old man scolding him for becoming more and more angry day by day.
If it had been placed in the past, this news would have made him have mixed thoughts and did not know the joys and sorrows. But at this point, it's definitely not good news.
Feeling better? But the old man's desire to take the Zen position did not dissipate, and the people of the Qin Tianjian of the Sect Rite Department were even more busy. What does this mean? This shows that the old man is determined to let the little cub take the position!
King Duanjun's hatred is hard to quench, just go up, who knows how many days the little cub can sit firmly on the dragon chair? If there is no support from the old man, or if the old man is defeated and can't survive for a few days, he can still be high-sounding and justifiable, and he will be abolished on the grounds of the world. But the old man has improved, and the emperor has been in office for five, six, seven or eight years, hehe... King Duan closed his eyes and opened them suddenly, full of killing intent, really thinking that he was a vegetarian?
King Duanjun no longer expected the emperor to change his mind, and came to Xu's mansion all the way in a dull manner. The little black hair that had been left on Taishi Xu's head in a short period of time also turned gray. Seeing King Duan, looking at his face, he waved away everyone, and the two discussed secretly in the heavily guarded study.
"It's the eleventh time, and I still haven't succeeded..."
"The Qian family also made a move last night, but it's a pity..."
"The Xu family also sent a palace maid, but... And the Zhao family..."
"There is also news from the Clothing Bureau, the dragon robe will become... It must be true..."
"There are frequent transfers in the camp in the western suburbs, I'm afraid..."
"The deployment in the palace has been tightened..."
β¦β¦
King Duanjun sighed: "Father is really guarding against me as a thief." β
Xu Taishi can no longer be as stable as Mount Tai, Duanjun Wang and the Xu family are grasshoppers on a rope, Duanjun Wang can't sit in that position, so those things in the past...
Master Xu felt a lot in his heart, no, for the sake of the Xu family's century-old foundation, that position must be occupied by someone with the blood of the Xu family.
"Han'er," Taishi Xu called out the title of Duanjun Wang when he was young, and his old face was full of affection: "Have you ever thought about what will happen to you and your mother if Xuanyuan Ji sits on the throne?" β
King Duanjun smiled bitterly, what can he do? I'm afraid I'll have to circle for a lifetime.
Xu Taishi saw his thoughts, and smiled coldly in his heart, yes, he is the emperor's own son, no matter how angry the emperor is, he will not kill his son, he has no power, but he is still rich, but he is depressed, but he can still live a lifetime. But as for the Xu family, this matter failed, and the hundred-year-old Xu family tree fell and the macaques scattered, and they couldn't stand up again. Hmph, I've been planning all my life, how can I fall short?
Xu Taishi made a heart-to-heart appearance: "Why can Xuanyuan Ji be favored by the emperor?" β
"Naturally, it's because of the prince." Duanwang said numbly. It's really strange, how affectionate the old man is with the queen, not only is he not suspicious of the prince who wants to inherit his position, but he can't wait to hold him in his mouth. Xuanyuan hoped to get this great benefit, naturally the old man felt ashamed of the dead ghost prince.
Sister, go to his father-son love!
Xu Taishi was satisfied and saw the resentment in Duanjun Wang's eyes. It's good to have resentment, and only when you are resentful will you fight.
"How the queen went, how the prince went, these emperors knew very well in their hearts. He can help Xuanyuan Ji on the dragon chair for the prince, and he will not hesitate to take the Zen position, whether it is for the prince or to continue to get the emperor's support after Xuanyuan Ji ascends the throne... You say..."
King Duanjun was stunned for a moment, and then shocked, he knew that Xu Taishi had his own selfish intentions in saying these words, but - Xu Taishi was damn right! As long as Xuanyuan Ji is in power, for the word "filial piety", he will definitely make himself and others pay the price of their lives!
"Damn!" King Duanjun slapped his palm: "How can you not kill that little cub!" No, we can't sit still! β
The corners of Taishi Xu's mouth are slightly hooked, that's right! (To be continued......)
