Chapter 368: Coercion
It is precisely because of this that I am particularly concerned about this matter.
If he can take Prime Minister Duan for his own use, some things will be convenient for him in the future, and what Zhou Jincheng wants to do most now is to vacate the rights of the King of Zhennan.
"Just you? The crown prince of Zhou? If you can help me, how could you leave Yan Kingdom in embarrassment, even if you return to Zhou Kingdom, isn't it also full of dangers, there are some things I didn't directly pick out to give the prince face, but it doesn't mean that the old man doesn't know anything, I hope the prince understands. Prime Minister Duan said sarcastically, even now, she has never thought of treason.
"This palace knows that Prime Minister Duan is now just relying on the current Queen Mother to be a member of the Duan family, but for so many years, the Prime Minister has been helping the Queen Mother clear the stumbling blocks, what is the Queen Mother's attitude towards you, when the eighth prince becomes the emperor, will it really get better? Could it be that Prime Minister Duan has not heard of the 'Qingjun side'. ”
Zhou Jincheng's words made Prime Minister Duan shudder, in fact, I have to say that what he said is indeed like this, but Prime Minister Duan has been cooperating with the Queen Mother for many years, and now he is also relying on the Queen Mother.
"Even if I don't cooperate with the Queen Mother, I will never be a traitorous minister, I don't don't understand the prince's thoughts, but I have been in Yan Country for many years, how can I be used as a gunman by you?" Prime Minister Duan said sarcastically that no matter what, Yan Guo has a place for him, but the words of the prince of Zhou are still thought-provoking.
"It's true that Prime Minister Duan is really vigilant, although I really don't mean anything else, but now I still have to make things clear, if the Prime Minister doesn't believe it, you can take a look, the Queen Mother will never help you after she holds the power, instead of following the Queen Mother, it is better to control the power yourself, if you want, the palace can cooperate with you, and then Yan Guo will not be in the pocket of Prime Minister Duan?"
The prince's words were very tempting, but Prime Minister Duan subconsciously refused, he said in a deep voice, "Prince, this official word has come to this, please leave, I will never compromise on this matter, there are some things, even if a decision is made, there is no possibility of turning back." ”
Zhou Jincheng unhurriedly put a key next to Prime Minister Duan's hand, and he said in a deep voice, "Since the prime minister has made his words clear, I won't embarrass you, but if there is a day of regret and hand over this thing to the little beggar in the east of the city, he will take me to see you." ”
Prime Minister Duan didn't refuse immediately, but said, "Okay." ”
The corners of Zhou Jincheng's mouth rose slightly, and then left the Prime Minister's Mansion directly, Prime Minister Duan looked at the key on the table, thinking thoughtfully.
After the prince left, he secretly returned to the inn, and when Feiyun saw the prince coming back, he hurriedly said, "Your Royal Highness the prince, did you go to see Prime Minister Duan?" What did he say, didn't Mo refuse? ”
"This time I will refuse, but next time it is really hard to say, now it is an opportunity after all, and this palace will not let it go." The prince said in a deep voice, he has his own considerations in his heart for what is happening now.
"My subordinates understand that the things you arranged for us before have been clarified, and it won't be long before news comes in." Feiyun said respectfully.
"I heard that Yuan Chufeng has been busy preparing to make a comfortable nest for the people in the disaster area as a rest station, this is a good opportunity."
Zhou Jincheng is quite interested, he has been looking for an opportunity in the capital for so long, and now he has finally got what he wants, but things still need to be considered, otherwise it is really hard to say.
"Does Your Highness mean ......?"
Feiyun suddenly had a bad premonition, and always felt that the prince had a big plan, after all, every time the prince had an idea in his heart, it was such a thought, and it seemed that someone was going to suffer.
"How big is the risk of the comfort nest, I think you and I both know, as long as you find the wrong place at that time, Yuan Chufeng will have no place to turn over." Zhou Jincheng said with an oath.
"However, there is only a detailed work arranged by us in the court, and this time the matter of the comfort nest has nothing to do with them, what should we do about this matter?"
Feiyun said hesitantly, no one expected that King Zhennan would be so cautious this time, avoiding all the details, and arranging it for the newly selected officials in the imperial court.
Zhou Jincheng raised his eyes and looked into the distance, with an imminent momentum in his eyes, "Since there are no people from this palace, can't this palace hide its own name among the officials?" As long as everything can be arranged and handled properly, why be afraid when the time comes. ”
When Feiyun heard this, he was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead, he wiped the sweat from his face, and then asked, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you have a noble status, how can you condescend to be a minister in the Yan Kingdom, why don't you let your subordinates put people in?" ”
"The affairs of the Zhou Kingdom are not important for the time being, since the situation of the court has stabilized, there are some things, you don't have to care, the affairs of the Yan Kingdom are the most important, I have my own considerations in my heart, you don't have to worry."
Zhou Jincheng said with a smile, "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger, this time, since you want to let the king of Zhennan plant your heels, it is good that the palace will go into battle in person, and the previous grudge between me and him has not been eliminated now!" ”
Since the prince said so, Feiyun didn't continue to argue, the matter had reached this point, and he could only follow his wishes.
"Now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has decided, his subordinates have understood this matter, and if there is anything that needs to be done by his subordinates, please ask His Highness to speak directly."
Zhou Jincheng stroked his eyebrows, "There are a lot of things tomorrow, you let the inn prepare food for the palace, then go back to rest, there are some things tomorrow that need time to deal with." ”
"Yes, my subordinates understand."
Feiyun left immediately after speaking, thinking that there were still many things to deal with now, so after arranging the things that the prince had explained, he left the inn.
The king of Zhennan wanted to establish a comfortable nest in the capital, and soon it came in the court, some people praised the king of Zhennan for his generosity and kindness, and some people said that the king of Zhennan should not do this, after all, this time the disaster was not only a part of the people, and the court was mixed, but there were still many people who stood in the same direction with the king of Zhennan.
The emperor directly agreed to the construction of a comfortable nest by the king of Zhennan, and arranged the matter to the waiter of the Ministry of Rites and the Dali Siqing to cooperate with it, and asked the waiter of the household department to allocate 300,000 taels of silver for disaster relief to help the affected people rebuild their homes.
At the same time, Liuying was not idle, she took advantage of the stable pulse, took Shuqin to the temple to give clothes and medicine, the people were very satisfied with the new princess Zhennan, and many people were full of praise.
It only took three days for Liuying to mingle with the common people, and at the same time, after the ladies in the court heard about Princess Zhennan's move, they followed suit and brought their maids and attendants to the temple to help, and the people's originally difficult situation was quickly solved for a while.
