Chapter 981: Xiao Jue returns to Beijing
Maybe it was because King Kang and King Duan rebelled one after another within two years, and Emperor Chen did not announce the news of King Huai's rebellion this time, but such a big thing, no matter what, it can't be hidden, King Huai's Mansion was raided, and General Yuyu Linwei's Mansion was raided, and the people could guess what happened even if they guessed.
King Huai rebelled.
When the people of Jingshi heard the news, in addition to their deep pity for King Huai, they also felt sorrow for Emperor Chen.
Sad, his sons turned against him, and saddened that he sacrificed his wife and children for the throne more than 20 years ago, and now he has finally been retributed.
King Kang and King Duan rebelled, and the people all condemned it, but this time King Huai rebelled, most people only sighed when they talked about it in private.
How can they accuse a son whose original intention is only to avenge his mother?
It's a pity that he failed in the end, since ancient times, that supreme position is that non-cold-blooded and ruthless people can't sit, King Huai can't rebel, and the rest of his life can only be spent in solitary confinement.
Not long after Tang Ning left the palace, he heard some news one after another.
Because of the rebellion of King Huai and the Right Feather Lin Wei, Emperor Chen completely replaced the entire Right Feather Lin Wei, and temporarily transferred 5,000 people from the 16 Wei to form a new Right Feather Lin Wei.
Right Yu Lin Wei did not have a commander for the time being, and was led by Chen Xingyun, the general of Left Yu Wei, who had made great contributions to quelling King Huai's rebellion.
In addition, he also issued a grounding order for Zhao Man, strictly prohibiting her from leaving the harem, and no one was allowed to visit, even the county lord of Anyang could not enter the palace to see her.
This is house arrest for her in disguise, and Tang Ning knows that all this is done for him to see.
In addition, there have also been some significant changes in the court.
In several important official positions in the DPRK and China, Emperor Chen unusually promoted some officials who were not very qualified and aged, and also made some transfers to existing positions.
Fang Zhe, the head of the household department, was transferred to the Ministry of Officials as a waiter, and the head of the household department and the head of the Ministry of Officials are in charge of money and power, and their status in the six departments is the same, if you really want to talk about it, the identity of the head of the Ministry of Officials is a little more transcendent.
This seems to be a flat tone, but behind it, there is a lot of deep meaning.
Fang Hong is the secretary of the ministry, Fang Zhe is the servant of the household department, the Fang family brothers used to have a lot of say in the ministry and the household department, but now Fang Zhe has been transferred to the ministry of officials, and the Fang family has lost its influence in the household department.
On the contrary, it was the Ministry of Officials, because Fang Hong was originally a scholar, even if Fang Zhe transferred over, it would not be the icing on the cake, but he just lost the Ministry of Household for no reason.
At the same time, Chen Huang also adjusted the defense duties of the east gatekeeper, and the right east gatekeeper, who was originally closer to the city gate, switched positions with the left east gatekeeper......
Zhang Yan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is about to be transferred to the Ministry of Works, and it seems that his official position remains unchanged, but the Ministry of Rites is the nominal head of the six ministries, and the influence of the Ministry of Rites is far from being compared with the Ministry of Rites.
Many people speculated that these unusual transfers made by His Majesty must be related to King Huai's rebellion, but no matter what they thought, they couldn't think of any connection between these things, let alone His Majesty's purpose.
Tang Ning knew very well what Emperor Chen made this series of moves for.
Without making a big move, he weakened the forces behind King Run to the greatest extent, and the purpose of King Huai was still achieved.
When Fang Xinyue came to look for Xiaoxiao, she brought a letter to Tang Ning.
Obviously, the Fang family had also sensed that something was wrong, and after King Huai's rebellion, today's eyes finally focused on the Fang family.
There is no doubt that Emperor Chen's series of suppressions of the Fang family is actually just the beginning, with his character and means, in the next time, he will gradually disintegrate the huge energy condensed by the Fang family.
He said that he wanted to establish King Run as the crown prince, and there was no more follow-up, he had already issued an order to recall a prince, if it weren't for this holy decree of Emperor Chen, Tang Ning didn't even know that there was a loyal king in Chen State.
At this sensitive time, Emperor Chen recalled this prince who most of the people had never even heard of, and his sense of existence was extremely low, and the implication was very obvious.
He was warning the Fang family, warning Tang Ning, and warning everyone behind King Run, he was still the emperor of the Chen State, and the throne was not passed to King Run, but to other kings......
For Tang Ning, it doesn't make much difference whether King Run is the emperor or King Zhong is the emperor.
He just wants to take Zhao Man away, who will be the emperor, this is Chen Guo's own business.
Even if Zhao Yuan and him have the name of master and apprentice, Tang Ning doesn't think that he can become a good emperor, Chen Guo falls into the hands of King Huai, and there may be a good future, in addition, in the current situation, without meeting a heroic emperor, Chen Guo's situation in the future will only be more difficult.
The advice of the Fang family and Wang Xiang was to wait and see, after all, if they wanted to achieve the goal of letting King Run succeed to the throne by forcing the palace, they would not wait until today.
No one wants to be labeled as a thief, they want Emperor Chen to be more conscious and active......
And even if Emperor Chen is the emperor, in a short period of time, he will not suppress King Run and the Fang family with great fanfare, the more fierce the force, the greater the rebound, Emperor Chen will not understand this truth, and he will not accept such an ending.
His usual method is to boil frogs in warm water, using a method that is not drastic, little by little, step by step to achieve his ultimate goal, just like he used to do to the Tang family.
My father-in-law came back from Shangshu Province today, and there was a trace of sadness between his eyebrows.
Tang Ning inquired and found out that there was a new young right man in Shangshu Province, although he was new to the city, but his means were extremely powerful, in the absence of Tang Ning and Wang Xiang, he only took one day to envelop half of Shangshu Province under his command.
The three fires of the new official can't be burned so quickly, to say that this person does not have Emperor Chen's instructions behind him, Tang Ning does not believe it.
Emperor Chen's actions were faster than he imagined, and he thought that not only Shangshu Province, but also other departments in the court would soon usher in Emperor Chen's purge.
Tang Ning walked out of the moon gate and saw a person standing in the courtyard.
Fang Xinyue turned her head, looked at Tang Ning and asked, "Daddy and uncle, as well as the emperor's uncle, what's wrong with them?" ”
Tang Ning touched her head and said, "Don't ask about adults, children." ”
Fang Xinyue looked up at him and asked, "Are they going to rebel and want Zhao Yuan's cousin to be the emperor, but didn't the emperor's uncle say that he wants to make his cousin the crown prince, what happened to them?" ”
Tang Ning opened his mouth, not knowing how to explain to her, Fang Xinyue lowered her head, feeling a little lost, and turned around and walked outside the courtyard.
Tang Ning gave Xiaoxiao a look, and Xiaoxiao quickly followed.
Tang Ning sighed, there were some things she might not understand, the Fang family, including herself, and Emperor Chen did have a period of happy relationship, but now, they had a major disagreement, and they could never go back to the beginning.
To this day, Jingshi seems to be quite calm, but Emperor Chen and King Run's family are already on the same page, and they only need one introduction to completely ignite the contradictions......
A sound of footsteps came from outside the courtyard, and before Tang Ning could turn around, a voice came from the door.
"You beast, the county lord of Anyang really hasn't escaped your clutches."
Tang Ning turned around, looked at the figure standing at the gate of the courtyard, and said with a smile: "You're back." ”
Xiao Jue nodded and said solemnly, "I'm back." ”
