Chapter 825: Insight into the Past
A few days later, the Empress Dowager Wu's bedroom, Yongle Palace.
Yongle Palace is in the northeast corner of the North Palace, the northwest corner of the North Palace is the arsenal, the southwest corner is the grain warehouse, and the southeast is the sundry warehouse.
Since the emperor had a meal with the empress and Zhang Ji, he has a detailed understanding of the marriage of Qi Wang Liu Yong.
Now things are very easy to do, Liu Yong doesn't want to marry the second daughter of the Zhang family, as if he is worried about being implicated by Zhang Fei, he seems to be a little embarrassed and lacks responsibility; And Zhang Ji is also well aware of the righteousness, and is unwilling to continue to implicate the imperial family at this juncture, and dissolves the marriage contract on behalf of her sister.
For such a big matter, the Queen Mother naturally wants to ask about it.
On the way to Yongle Palace, Liu Chan sat in the car of the Son of Heaven and only felt bored.
Looking up at the sky above the city wall in the distance, where a flock of eagles were soaring, I couldn't help but straighten my neck and look up, looking very attentively.
Huang Hao, who was driving around, observed the subtlety, and hurriedly hinted that the walking car gradually slowed down, so that the emperor could have a good time.
The more he looked, the more excited the emperor became, frowning from time to time in deep thought, and the car started slowly.
Entering the Yongle Palace, when the emperor and Huang Hao were walking on the small square in front of the empty steps, the emperor suddenly spoke: "Since the first emperor went out of Yizhou, during the Eastern Expedition to the Northern Expedition, he brought the king of Qi on the left and right, and the king of Gayin Qi was heroic and decisive. ”
He stopped and turned his head to look at Huang Hao: "At that time, the prince's family Ling Laigong was deeply frightened, fearing that the foundation of the country would be shaken. And because the King of Qi and the Marquis of Shang are good, and the Marquis of Shang and the Duke of Chen are like brothers. So, Lai Gong wanted to suppress Chen Gong, but instead angered Chen Gong and the first emperor. ”
At that time, the first emperor was at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, and the struggle for the crown was the most fierce competition between the court and the central government, and the most disgraceful thing.
At that time, the overall situation was the Eastern Expedition and the Northern Expedition, rather than infighting and fighting for reserves.
This is a matter of seeing the light and dying, and whoever fights for the reserve is against the overall situation of everyone.
So Lai Min was directly finished, and he was exiled to the end.
Huang Hao panicked when he heard this, he was Huangmen Cheng back then, and he was one of the close servants of the first emperor.
The emperor was in a calm mood at the moment, and said with a little emotion: "The first emperor likes King Qi, but he doesn't like me." If it weren't for the old age and the misfortune of the first emperor, how could I be in my current situation? ”
He still stared at Huang Hao: "King Qi and Chen are good, but they still have to defile themselves...... I have never been good with the queen, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to die well in the future. ”
Huang Hao restrained his expression and leaned over slightly: "I am willing to share my worries for the Supreme." ”
The emperor bowed slightly, and when he looked up to see the flock of eagles, it was already obscured by the eaves of the palace, and nothing could be seen.
Stunned, the emperor blinked his eyes, and was still terrified.
He was appointed as the crown prince, and he took the king of Qi to the east to the north...... Already doing the foreshadowing.
The officials of the Prince's East Palace are a very large system, which can accommodate many people, and can also make many ambitious people willing to wait for the opportunity to show their strength in the future.
After appeasing this group of people with the official position of the East Palace, the first emperor was able to go all out to fight.
The generals and military officials who rose during the war were naturally friendly with the heroic and decisive King Qi.
If the great cause of the first emperor succeeds, will he directly kill the upper and lower departments of the East Palace with a backhand slap?
Back then, the Mi family brought so much money, food, and manpower to support the first emperor, and the first emperor would be grateful; Didn't the former ministers of the first emperor receive the favor of the Mi family?
Take a look at Mi Fang, because he was crowned the prince, so Mi Fang was so angry that he did that kind of thing.
is to do that kind of thing, but how many of the former emperor's ministers advocate killing Mi Fang?
No, no one among the former ministers of the first emperor wanted to watch Mi Fang die, even if he made a big, big mistake.
Even the first emperor didn't have the heart to kill Mi Fang.
Mi Fang committed suicide by raising fire, and the first emperor was only angry that Mi Fang was not angry, and he never hated Mi Fang's attempt to rebel.
The first emperor understood Mi Fang's grievances, and the former emperor's ministers also understood Mi Fang's grievances, so their hatred for Mi Fang was not deep.
The influence of the Mi family will eventually be transferred to the King of Qi...... This should have been a big game back then, and he and the officials of the East Palace seemed to be an outcast from the beginning?
Later, he was able to succeed to the throne, in addition to the young age of King Qi, the bigger factor was that Sanke was strong and strong, and there was no need to purge the officials of the East Palace by force.
Perhaps, there was a plan to purge and kill at that time, but before that day, the new Tianzi close ministers developed by the officials of the East Palace angered Tian Xin and were purged by Guan Yu.
In the process of angering Tian Xin, Guan Yu acquiesced.
The so-called officials of the East Palace are the official positions given by the first emperor during the Eastern Expedition and the Northern Expedition in order to appease and buy all kinds of dissatisfied scholars, giving them a hope for the future.
In the future, there will be old emperors and old ministers, and the children of old ministers will act as pillars, how can it be the turn of these people?
Dong Yun and Fei Yi just helped him and the first emperor to keep an eye on the housekeepers of the officials of the East Palace, that's all.
Back then, it was Guan Yu who acquiesced to the bottom line of the Son of Heaven and his close ministers to challenge the Beifu; It was also Guan Yu who used the biggest knife to hack almost all the close ministers of the Son of Heaven to death.
Now it is also Guan Yu who wants to help the Han family to contain Beifu, and the result is that after Guan Yu was assassinated, he first expressed a peaceful attitude to Beifu.
This...... It's very problematic.
No matter how close he is, the middle father has only one daughter, and the future emperor will be the grandson of the middle father...... Wouldn't it be nice?
It's a pity that he woke up too late, and he was not as smart as King Qi after all.
He may have seen and perceived the true face of his middle father, so he was anxious to defile himself, not hesitating to offend his uncle's family.
The emperor's thoughts are emanated, and some are just the joy and panic brought by hindsight.
Perhaps Sanke had a tacit understanding with the first emperor, and this tacit understanding was to kill the old ministers of the East Palace, abolish himself, and establish King Qi as the emperor.
It's just that during the most critical battle in Guanzhong, Beifu pressed everything and won everything.
Therefore, after Dong Yunfeiyi made a mistake, he just chose to kill the old ministers of the East Palace and let himself go?
An emperor who has lost his arms, wings, and henchmen is like an eagle without feathers to keep out the cold and soar with wings.
is like this, what can Huang Hao do?
Thinking about the cause and effect, the emperor thought about it instead, and couldn't help but laugh softly, laughing patheticly.
It is you who agree to marry Dongwu, and it is also you who hate the big tiger and the little tiger.
The more I thought about it, the more speechless I became, and I felt deeply sad and indignant.
Biting his lower lip and blushing his face, the emperor stepped on the steps and entered the Yongle Palace to pay homage to the Empress Dowager Wu.
In the warm pavilion in the palace, Wu saw that he looked abnormal, and asked urgently: "Why is my son like this?" ”
The emperor knelt down on his knees in front of the warm couch and nodded directly: "Queen Mother, the hearts of the ministers have changed, and there is a sense of abolishing and renewing, and the children are afraid." Plead with the queen mother to save the child. ”
Wu got up and waved away the two daughters of Wu Ban who were accompanying him, and gave Huang Hao, who was standing at the door of the Warm Pavilion, a look, Huang Hao bowed back and went to warn the two little girls, so as not to cause trouble by talking nonsense.
There was only a pair of hard-working mother and son left in the warm pavilion, and Wu picked up the emperor: "Why did my son say this? Isn't he asking about King Qi's marriage, why did it make the ministers change their hearts? Don't say anything about it, remember it. ”
Following Wu to the warm couch, the emperor sat cross-legged on the ground, hung his head, his eyes were red and swollen, tears dripped from his chin and fell on the bamboo mat, and he cried: "The child is not as smart as the king of Qi, and now the king of Qi is self-defiled, and the child is afraid of a big disaster, so I want to follow the example of the king of Qi, and ask the queen mother to help me." ”
"This ......"
Wu's heart was in turmoil, and he asked rhetorically: "If you have the name of being stupid, isn't it just fulfilling your wish?" ”
"The queen mother, who cherishes her wings the most, will she kill me and defile myself?"
The emperor looked up at Wu, bit his lower lip and hesitated, "Children don't do things that anger people do. ”
"That'...... My son's desire? ”
Wu asked in a low voice, if he can help, he will naturally help.
A dignified-faced person flashed in the emperor's mind, hesitated for a moment, and spoke in a low voice, and the Wu family who listened was shocked.
Wu wipes the emperor's cheeks with a handkerchief, contemplating how dangerous things are.
Thinking about it, the one with a high status, who is easy to bully, and who can also provoke the dissatisfaction of the old ministers is indeed the most suitable person.
