Chapter 261: Heaven does not take it
Chapter 261 Heavenly Grant does not take
A gale that should have been questioned in court and questioned Zhu Di, the king of Yan, ended in disgrace under Zhu Di's preemptive strike.
In fact, although Zhu Di occupied the righteousness and truth in court, the original intended ending only attracted the widespread attention of the government and the opposition, in this way, although he would be in trouble for the time being, but the group of scholars who fell into the whirlpool of morality and justice were afraid to do anything to him, and in the end he was indeed more than seventy percent sure of his smooth return to Beiping, and because of his public interrogation in the court, it was very likely that the other party would have scruples about cutting the feudal domain in the future, and he would not dare to be so blatant.
The reason why the ending was better than Zhu Di and Daoyan expected was due to Zhu Yunwen.
Zhu Yunwen is not good at arguing, it doesn't mean that Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng and others are not good at it, they all have a sharp mouth, the reason why they didn't react at first was because they were really too anxious to cut the domain, and the things accused by Zhu Di, the king of Yan, were indeed reasonable, and they couldn't refute it. However, after studying all their lives, do they not understand the sophistry of secretly changing logic and transforming propositions? As long as they are given a little more time, they will definitely be able to filter their minds, get rid of the topic that Zhu Di is holding onto, focus on the evidence of his deception, and draw everyone's attention.
But Zhu Yunwen has never experienced such a scene, seeing that several henchmen who leaned on his arm were dumbfounded by Zhu Di's questioning, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were watching there, and the inexperienced Zhu Yunwen was ashamed and embarrassed, and he couldn't wait to find a step down immediately, so he was impatient and muddy, admitting that Zhu Di's loss of honor in front of the emperor was just out of sincerity, and everything in his family affairs was easy to discuss, so he hurriedly built a ladder for himself to come down, and asked Neishì to help Zhu Di up, so he comforted him, and asked him to go to the inner palace to see his mother first, and his uncle and sister-in-law went to the house.
Zhu Yunwen In this way, Huang Zicheng and the others are out of line, Zhu Di patted his ass and left, who are you still competing with? Didn't that make the emperor unable to come to the stage, and a few people had to swallow their anger and spare this matter. Seeing this scene, the officials of Honglu Temple hurriedly stepped forward to let the hundred officials do something, the hundred officials did not make any preparations today, and a few ministers came out casually, and asked a few questions that were not painful, Zhu Yunwen replied casually and went through the motions, and this is not a big court meeting and ended hastily.
In the evening, before the palace ban arrived, the lights in the Zhengxin Hall were bright, and Zhu Yunwen, who had just obeyed the instructions of the queen mother and politely sent the fourth uncle Yan Wang out of the palace, came back, and a group of henchmen who had been waiting there for a long time blew up the pot.
Qi Tai said movingly: "Your Majesty, today King Yan is criticizing the Son of Heaven in the court and slandering the ministers, where is there still the emperor and the court in his eyes, is it not obvious that he is so arrogant?" The emperor shouldn't let him go to court at all, as soon as he stepped into Ying Tianfu, he should lock him up and ask him for guilt! β
Jing Qing also said angrily: "Your Majesty, King Yan himself sent mΓ©n, this is a godsend. As the saying goes, if you don't take it, you will be blamed. After today's court incident, the emperor should not hesitate, he should be brought to justice immediately, and he should be punished! β
Zhu Yunwen said with a calm face: "In the court, I just said that I had no intention of exterminating the imperial uncles, and I just pardoned him for the crime of misdemeanor in front of the palace, do you let me go back on my word and laugh at the world?" β
Lian Zining was anxious when he heard this, and said: "Your Majesty, those who have achieved great things are not informal, since King Yan is here, he has to let him come and go, if he returns to the mountain, the tiger will fight back, and it will be too late to regret it!" β
Zhu Yunwen waved his hand irritably, sat on the throne, sulking and not speaking.
Huang Zicheng tugged at his beard vigorously, and only after a while did he say, "You can't kill!" King Yan's intentions are sinister, and his heart can be punished! β
Zhu Yunwen and the ministers looked at him together, and Zhu Yunwen asked anxiously, "What does Mr. mean by this?" β
Huang Zicheng said: "We haven't been able to figure it out, why did King Yan come to Ying Tianfu? The reason is very simple, he has already sensed the movements of the imperial court and knows that the imperial court is about to attack him. At this time, he ventured to Ying Tianlai, so why did he come? If he wants to show loyalty to the court, then he should follow the rules and be cautious in his words and deeds, but what he did seemed to be for this reason? β
After hearing this, everyone felt that his analysis was very reasonable, and couldn't help nodding again and again, Zhu Yunwen hurriedly asked again: "Then according to what Mr. saw what King Yan wanted?" β
Huang Zicheng said: "Among the kings, those who are good at fighting, those who have led soldiers and horses, and there are several feudal domains, and the imperial court's control of Beiping is not tight enough, he knows that now is not the time for the imperial court to show his poor dagger, so he ventured into Beijing, one is to force the emperor to publicly admit that he has no intention of cutting the domain; second, to win the hearts and minds of the vassals with this move; Third, to arouse the sympathy of the government and the opposition......"
Before Huang Zicheng finished speaking, Qi Tai couldn't wait to say: "Wow, since Yixing has also seen King Yan's intentions, we should kill him immediately!" β
Huang Zicheng waved his hand and said, "Wait, I haven't finished yet." King Yan must have also considered the risk of coming to Jinling, but he was in danger of being put to death and then born, so he had to come. However, since the king of Yan came, he must have already made arrangements for Beiping, if he dies in Jinling, his son will inevitably gather people to rebel, one of them; Second, hum! He also made the worst plan, to use his own death, trap the emperor in injustice, trapping me is equal to disloyalty, he cried in Xiaoling to sacrifice the emperor's speech, you have heard, how will the whole world view the emperor at that time? What will you think of us? β
Lian Zining was so anxious that he stomped his feet and said: "Oh, my Lord Huang, you are on fire, what do you still care about, as long as you kill him with a knife, forgive him The prince of Yan Wang has just reached the age of the crown, and his prestige and martial arts are far inferior to his father, what big things can be done, you should get rid of him immediately." β
Huang Zicheng smiled faintly and said leisurely: "Barefoot are not afraid of wearing boots, King Yan has already prepared for the worst, he is a dog jumping off the wall in a hurry, fighting to the death." The overall situation is in the hands of the emperor and the court, what are we anxious about? What was our original plan? It was to cut his wings, the bottom of the kettle, and take down the King of Yan without much effort, how could he now lose his own proportions because of the actions of the King of Yan?
Kill a thousand, self-damage 800, the emperor has just reigned, if you kill King Yan now, won't the emperor's reputation be damaged? We have just been reused by the emperor, and our prestige is insufficient, and you have also heard that above the court today, doesn't King Yan use this article to ridicule you and me, and divide the relationship between you and me and the officials of the court? If we kill King Yan at this time, wouldn't it be criticized? β
The saying that the barefoot are not afraid of wearing boots was popular during the Ming Dynasty, Huang Zicheng thought to himself that he had figured out Zhu Di's thoughts, and he actually said a witty thing while relaxing. Hearing this bullshit theory, Qi Tai was about to turn into a fire-breathing dragon, he gasped, glared at Huang Zicheng and said, "That...... So what about you, Lord Huang? β
Huang Zicheng said: "The more anxious King Yan is, the more it proves that he has exhausted his donkey skills, and the overall situation is in our hands, he is in a hurry, we can't be in a hurry." According to me, not only can the emperor not kill him, but during his time in Jinling, he must also give him great gifts and favors. As for the fact that the three kings were cut, it can also be perfunctory on the grounds that he was far away in Beiping and did not know the truth, so as to be the king of Yan.
Let him change, I have a certain rule, our side, still according to the original plan, cut off his wings, by that time, Beiping is also in our control, want to kill the king of Yan, hehe, wait for us to arrange properly, what is the difference between killing here and killing in Beiping? When the time is ripe, it will not only cause no damage to the emperor's reputation, but also reduce the number of soldiers, so as not to cause the people to leave. β
Jing Qing glared and said, "Do you want to let him go back?" β
Huang Zicheng said affirmatively: "Yes! I'm going to let him go back! β
Lian Zining said angrily: "How can this be reasonable, isn't this a tiger returning to the mountain?" β
Zhu Yunwen saw that there was infighting between his cronies again, and he didn't know who said it more reasonably, so he asked Fang Xiaoru, "What does Mr. Xiaozhi think?" β
Fang Xiaoru said: "All of you are for the emperor and for me, don't hurt each other." Your Majesty, what you have said makes sense. Now that King Yan has made such a move to the death, it is not to let the emperor kill him, nor if he does not kill him, according to the minister, we can't kill him, otherwise we really can't treat the people of the world. It is easy for the emperor to kill King Yan, but it is difficult to fortify the mouths of everyone in the world! β
Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but nodded, Fang Xiaoru said again: "However, we can't be at the mercy of his King Yan, King Yan went to Nanjing and took His Majesty's army, why didn't Your Majesty take him an army, if he promised to pay it back, if he didn't agree, at that time, no matter what the emperor did, King Yan would have nothing to say, and the subjects of the world would also have nothing to say." β
Zhu Yunwen's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Mr. Xiaozhi, what should I do?" β
Fang Xiaoru said: "Soon it will be the death day of the first emperor, the emperor can say that the kings are ordered to be in the town, not to leave lightly, and the princes will go to Beijing on behalf of their fathers to worship the emperor's tomb, since King Yan is in Beijing, he will tell him about it first, and let him agree in public." There are two advantages to this, one is that the emperor died last year, and the emperor decreed that the kings should not go to Beijing, and the people have a lot of discussions about this, thinking that the emperor is not close to people, and the emperor just uses this to remedy; Second, if King Yan refuses to allow it, it is a rebellion, and the anti-will will be obvious, and he will be taken down on the spot, and he will have nothing to say. If he agrees and goes back on his word, he will lose his trust in the world. If the third son of King Yan is really in hand, the court side can deploy calmly as Lord Huang said, and there is no need to worry about him King Yan taking risks! β
"Good!"
A happy smile appeared on Zhu Yunwen's face, and he turned to everyone and asked, "What do you think Mr. Xiaozhi said?" β
"Confused, really confused! King Yan is right in front of him, killing him like slaughtering a dog, he wants to return to the mountain, what kind of court plan to follow to cut the domain, it is really unreasonable! β
Leaving the palace and walking on the royal road, the more Qi Tai thought about it, the more sad he became, Jing Qing sighed and said: "However, Fang Xiaozhi and Huang Yixing's status in the emperor's mind is unmatched, both of them have this opinion, what else can we do?" β
Lian Zining hung his head and said dejectedly: "Alas, if the development of the current situation is really as they expected, it is okay, I am afraid that there will be extraneous branches, how can the three tiger calves in King Yan's family be as powerful as the fierce tiger of King Yan." β
Qi Taishen was uncertain, thought for a long time, and stomped his foot and said: "No, you can't return to the mountain." β
Jing Qing said helplessly: "The emperor has made up his mind, what can you and I do?" With just you and I three scholars, can you kill the Yan Wangfu and kill the Yan King? β
Qi Tai gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, I have this plan." It's just ......"
He glanced at the brocade-clothed guard not far away, and smiled coldly: "Of course it's not us who do it......"
