After Ye Yichen returned to the palace, he didn't have time to see his daughter, so he went to the study in the front yard first. I don't know what he ordered, but the people below him were busy all night.

The next morning, Orthodoxy had breakfast. asked Chen Jiadao, who was standing aside, "What are the important twists and turns today?" ”

Chen Jia's face was not very good-looking: "Today's performance is particularly important, but it's not a little ...... Many! ”

Orthodoxy didn't take it seriously, and said, "Tell them to move in!" ”

Chen Jia clapped his hands, and the two young and strong eunuchs came in with a large box, full of the ministers' submissions.

Orthodoxy finally understands what Chen Jiawei is talking about, and today's twists and turns are a bit "much"! That's not a lot of people!

Orthodox emperor for so many years, he has never seen such a situation. Just now, Chen Jia said that there was no important fold, and the orthodoxy didn't think much about it, and asked someone to put the fold on the top of the imperial book case, and put a few thick stacks, and the orthodoxy frowned a little when he looked at it.

He is not a diligent emperor, and in recent years, as he gets older, his energy has become less and less, and he does not like to read excerpts even more. However, the crown prince has just been abolished, and there is turmoil in the court, and when the wind and rain are in turmoil, he must see the excerpts if he doesn't want to.

I took out a copy at random and looked at it, it was written by a six-grade director of the Ministry of Industry. sprinkled a large article, saying only one meaning: the original prince has been abolished, and it is really unaccustomed to the sudden absence of a master above our heads, so please ask the emperor to set up a new second master for us. The fourth son of the emperor, let's look good, or your old man will make do with it, and make him the prince.

In the eyes of the orthodox emperor, Zheng Liupin is just a small official with sesame mung beans, and orthodoxy is not taken into account. The orthodox emperor is also considering the matter of establishing the crown prince, the boss Ye Minshu is finished, and Ye Minyu should take over the long and expensive, which seems to have nothing to discuss.

Although Ye Minzhao has been very fond of him recently, after all, he is too young, although he is also called in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he has no great credit for the country's social affairs after all, unlike Ye Minyu, who not only has an outstanding performance in the defense of Beijing, but also sent troops to let go of horses, and led soldiers to fight.

Orthodoxy didn't take this excerpt seriously, so he put it aside and picked up another book and read it. Flip it open, this time it's a minor official in the household department, and the content is similar to the previous one, and it is also a request to make Ye Minyu the prince.

Books 3 and 4...... Turning over the unification book, hundreds of excerpts, six ministries and nine secretaries, superintendents, and eighteen yamen, almost wiped out all the officials in the court, and said that it was all the same thing, and they all hoped to establish the crown prince of Zhao immediately. A few courtiers also wrote very impassionedly, not only praising Ye Minyu to the sky, but even said that if King Zhao can't be the prince, I'm afraid that the flowers and rivers under His Majesty will be ruined!

The more orthodoxy looks at it, the darker his face becomes. First angry, then angry, and finally fearful.

He trembled his hands, pointed to a table full of folds, and hissed: "These rebels and thieves, I am not dead yet!" They're going to force the palace! ”

"The emperor is angry!" Chen Jia stepped forward to stroke his chest and rub his back, and after working for a long time, orthodoxy finally reluctantly calmed down.

Chen Jia saw it clearly on the side, and couldn't help but secretly light a wax for Ye Minyu. Originally, this boss was abolished, and the position of the crown prince couldn't run away from him, but I don't know if Lu Dao was dizzy, and he actually connected hundreds of ministers to jointly elect him as the prince.

You must know that the emperor of Ludao himself wants to give you and others forcing the emperor to give you are completely different things!

Now that your crown prince has not yet arrived, you have united so many courtiers to force the emperor to make you the crown prince, aren't you tantamount to rebellion?

But these hundreds of excerpts were handed over at the same time, which could indeed put unparalleled pressure on the emperor, but it was enough to show that Ye Minyu had won over the courtiers and formed a party for personal gain.

Chen Jia has been waiting by the orthodox side, and he understands the emperor's thoughts at this time, because of the betrayal of the prince and the queen, the emperor is already suspicious, and now seeing this situation, how can he not be angry, how can he still successfully establish King Zhao as the prince!

Of course, Ye Minyu didn't do this, Ye Minyu was not so stupid. The mastermind behind this matter is Ye Yichen. The resignation of the crown prince is not a bad thing for Ye Yichen, but it is not in his interests for King Zhao to become the prince too quickly, it is best for the prince and King Zhao to contain each other, consume each other, compete with each other, and the fisherman profits.

That's when he single-handedly pushed for today's incident. Hundreds of ministers wrote at the same time, creating the illusion of surging emotions and forcing the palace, making the emperor feel that his power was threatened, and dividing the relationship between father and son.

In fact, he didn't do anything, just quietly leaked the content of this recital. Because everyone knows that Ye Minyu will be the next successor, no one wants to be left behind, and everyone wants to sell it to the future new monarch, so naturally everyone will rush to the book and recommend Ye Minyu as the prince.

This is human nature!

The Orthodox Emperor was furious. There is a legend that the former cabinet chief assistant Yang Peishi asked to see. Chen Jia was taken aback when he heard this, but the orthodoxy was quite happy.

When Yang Peishi was in power, he could feel his checks and balances and threats to himself, and at that time, the country's major politics were not so much controlled by him, the emperor, but by Yang Peishi, the head of the cabinet. As long as he wanted to do something, he always had a way to convince the orthodox emperor to agree with his policy.

So when Yang Peishi went to the position, he was also a little happy in his heart, feeling that no one could restrain him in what he wanted to do in the future. It turned out that was not the case at all, his freedom was greater, but the workload was also multiplied. In the past, when Yang Peishi was in the past, he, the great steward of the empire, took care of the cabinet and the six ministries properly, and he, the emperor, could enjoy life leisurely.

But with a change of first assistant, none of his prestige, qualifications, and abilities are comparable to Yang Peishi's, and everything in big and small matters has to be used to ask orthodoxy, and the orthodox emperor is so depressed that he is dying. The day's he's so busy that he's burned out.

He slowly remembered the benefits of Yang Peishi, and slowly remembered that Yang Peishi had been his teacher and had taught himself carefully.

All in all, distance produces beauty! When there is distance, beauty comes.

So when he heard that Yang Peishi was coming, the emperor was very happy. Immediately ordered Chen Jia to personally go to the Shenwu Gate to greet him.

Chen Jia could only pinch his nose and go. The two rivals met, not only did they not have the slightest smell of gunpowder, but they also talked happily like old friends who had not seen each other for many years.

One said: "Your old man is getting stronger and stronger, and his demeanor is better than in the past, which is really gratifying!" ”

One said: "Gonggong Chen, you lead the inner house, wait for the emperor, and praise both inside and outside, it's really hard work!" ”

The two of them were false and wronged along the way, touting each other, but in fact, they wanted to strangle each other to death in their stomachs, with an extremely sincere smile on their faces.

Chen Jia led the old lady to the Dongnuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace. The emperor has changed into a formal dragon robe and is waiting here. Dressing formally is also a sign of respect for Yang Peishi, a veteran of the Three Dynasties.

The old lady bowed three times and bowed to the emperor, and the orthodox emperor personally stepped down from the throne to help the old lady up, and said very emotionally: "I haven't seen you for many days, Yang Qing has a lot more gray hair, and you are also old!" "Orthodoxy is much more sincere than Chen Jia at this point, the old lady went to Shandong, and he slept all the way, and he is indeed a lot older.

The old lady said humbly: "Thank you for your concern!" Life is rare in seventy years, and the old minister is already seventy and two this year, and being able to live to this age is still the result of many years of gratitude to the emperor! ”

Orthodoxy was very happy to hear this, "Aiqing, please sit down!" ”

The little eunuch moved a chair in, and the old lady confessed and sat down. The little eunuch brought refreshments. Orthodoxy cared about the old lady's living situation for a few words, then got to the point, and said very kindly: "I don't know if Aiqing came to see me this time, but what difficulties she encountered, if you have any requirements, just tell me, and I will definitely help you solve it." ”

The weight of this sentence is not small.

The old lady first thanked the emperor's Longen, and then said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the old minister came to see the emperor this time, first, he has not seen him for many days, and he wants to see the holy face, and the second is that the minister has compiled a book "The Gains and Losses of Dayong for Politics", and wants to take this opportunity to dedicate this book to the emperor. ”

Dayong was a dynasty before the Great Chu, which lasted for more than 300 years before it was declared extinct. The entire imperial court fell apart, the rebel armies in various places were surging, and Tai-Zu met at the right time to establish today's Great Chu step by step.

Yang Peishi said: "There are countless historical events in the 300-year history of Dayong, many of which are worthy of my vigilance and learning. Now that I have retired, I have finally finished compiling this book, and I invite the emperor to take a look at it! ”

When he came, he had already handed the book to Chen Jia. Everything that entered the emperor's hands had to be checked by Chen Jia, and Chen Jia handed a thick book to the orthodox emperor.

Orthodoxy had long known that the old lady wanted to compile a book, so he curiously took it over and flipped through it, and said, "With your knowledge and knowledge, this book must be good." When I have time, I will read it through! This is also from the bottom of his heart, and during this time, he felt more and more that the country was running in an orderly and orderly manner when Yang Peishi was in charge.

The topic naturally talked about some things about Dayong. The old lady said: "The world says that the most holy son of heaven in Dayong is the second generation of emperor Yongtaizong, but Weichen does not dare to agree!" Yongtaizong killed his brother and slaughtered his brother and forced his father to abdicate, which was much worse in terms of German characters alone. ”

The founding emperor of Dayong, Yongtai-Zu, established his eldest son as the crown prince, and the second son, the later Yongtaizong, competed with the crown prince for many years and was always at a disadvantage. The history books say that the prince later set up an ambush in Guang'anmen and tried to launch a coup d'état to kill Yongtaizong, but was killed by Taizong with an arrow. Taizong killed his younger brother who participated in the coup d'état with his brother, forced his father to give up the throne, and the founding emperor became the emperor, but he became the emperor. Later, he created a generation of extremely prosperous world, and later generations had a lot of praise for him.

At that time, the orthodox emperor of this period of history was naturally knowledgeable. Then he smiled and said: "Prince Yong is tyrannical and cruel, he is a mediocre generation, far from what Taizong expects!" The change of Guang'anmen, Taizong was also forced to resist! Chen Jia also nodded, that's what the history books say.

The old lady said eloquently: "The minister has always felt strange, Prince Yong was originally the prince, and the world is destined to be him in the future, why is he impatient to launch a mutiny, and he has to kill his younger brother?" What's more, according to the history books, Prince Yong's long-planned coup d'état was at a loss and was killed by his younger brother with an arrow! However, Yongtaizong, who responded to the battle in a hurry, not only did not get hurt, but also killed the prince and the king of Qi who supported the prince, and took this opportunity to kill all the dozen sons of the prince and the king of Qi. ”

The orthodox emperor thought about it and felt that there was a big mystery in this matter. "You mean, Emperor Taizong asked someone to tamper with the history books?"

"The emperor is really wise. The minister flipped through the historical materials, Yongtaizong intervened in the revision of history, and there were many records of wild history notes. In the official records, Yong Taizong once served as the president of the compilation agency of "Tai-Zu Shilu", and he was a ninety-five emperor, and he was honored to be this president, and the meaning of it was naturally self-evident. ”

Not only that, but the minister also suspected that he interfered in the revision of history and deliberately exaggerated his importance in the process of founding the country, so as to prove the legitimacy of his palace change and seizure of power! The minister checked the historical materials and had reason to believe that the Prince Yong was not as mediocre and tyrannical and embarrassing as described in the history books, in fact, he was an excellent heir to the throne with the world pattern in his heart. ”

Hearing this, the orthodox emperor's heart moved slightly, weren't Prince Yong and Yongtaizong a bit like today's Prince and King Zhao?

Yang Peishi didn't seem to see the face of the orthodox emperor, and continued: "The minister has always felt suspicious, almost every one of the founding emperors of the past dynasties is eloquent, why is this Yongtai-ancestor so mediocre and incompetent, not only did he choose the wrong prince and was forced to abdicate, but the light was even completely overshadowed by Taizong!" ”

Hearing this, Orthodoxy's face changed slightly. Yang Peishi couldn't be more reasonable, in fact, this issue has even been considered by orthodoxy before, and the real history must be that Taizong distorted and tampered with history after he ascended the throne, exaggerating his role in order to prove his legitimacy.

He suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, as soon as the prince was abolished, King Zhao dared to contact the minister to force him to be the prince. If he really agreed to his request, wouldn't one day, he might be forced to abdicate like Yongtaizu and become the emperor in name only.

The orthodox emperor has already made a big alarm bell in his heart when he thinks of this!

The orthodox emperor looked at Yang Peishi with a solemn expression and said, "If Aiqing stood in the position before the palace gate change, how would he deal with the dispute between the two sons for succession?" ”

The old lady smiled and said: "This matter, it is difficult to say, it is simple to say, but it is just the word 'balance'!" ”

Balance! It is the most important lesson that Yang Peishi taught him about the way of being a king when he was an emperor in the past!

Yang Peishi finished the most important words, and said a few more gossips to the emperor, and then got up and retired. Chen Jia sent him out, muttering secretly in his heart, this old fox, from beginning to end, does not seem to have a word related to the government, but in fact, every word is implied, but no one can hold his handle, it is too cunning and cunning.

Yang Peishi left, but orthodoxy fell into thinking for a long time.

He thought about it for an afternoon in the warm pavilion, and finally made up his mind. "Chen Jia, you come to draw up the purpose!"

"The first will: immediately release the deposed prince Ye Minshu from the prison of the Criminal Department! Confined in the Yuqing Palace, the ......" emperor thought about it, and finally decided: "Ye Minzhao, the king of Lu, is in charge of guarding!" ”

"The second will: Cheng Daquan, the head of the household department, and other seven people will form a party for personal gain, and immediately lock them up and put them in prison and hand them over to the ministry!" The seven people mentioned in orthodoxy are the ones who were the most cheerful in the incident of supporting King Zhao. Orthodoxy does not want to implicate too widely and cause the government and the opposition to shake. I brought out these officials who were not too big, but the ones who called the most happy, and made an example of the chickens. They may not be King Zhao's sworn friends, they originally wanted to pat the future Xinjun's ass, but they didn't expect the fart to be slapped on the horse's leg, not only did they not get any benefits, but they were imprisoned.

"The third will: remove Ye Minyu, the king of Zhao, from all his positions in the military department and the governor's mansion of the five armies, and order him to walk in the official department!" The removal of Ye Minyu from all his positions in the Ministry of War and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is to completely isolate him from the military power, and orthodoxy is afraid that he will raise troops to force the palace! Ye Minyu originally started with military merits, and the will of orthodoxy shows his precaution against Ye Minyu.

Transferring him to the Ministry of Officials, on the surface, it seems to be to make up for the loss of erasing his military power, but in fact, the Ministry of Officials was originally one acre and three points of land of the Xiao family, and the Xiao family, as King Zhao's foreign family, has always been a hardcore supporter of King Zhao, so after the worst, Ye Minyu still suffered a big loss!

Chen Jia knows it: balance and balance! Old lady Yang saved the life of the abolished prince Ye Minshu with two words!

The author has something to say: It's been 300 chapters, in fact, it's not easy to stick to the day until now, after all, in addition to writing, there are many such things in life, but I still have the passion to write, and I hope that they are still enthusiastic about reading \(^o^)/~
