Chapter 950 Checks and Balances
Qin Huaidao sat there, listening to them say that the court has changed a lot recently, Qin Huaidao heard it, and felt a little strange, it was only a few months, how could it have changed a lot?
"Hu Guogong, Recently, Your Majesty has activated a group of officials from the family, we don't know how those officials came up, didn't you say before that Your Majesty had officials who suppressed the family? Why are those people starting to be used again? Chen Juhai looked at Qin Huaidao and asked.
"An official who has enabled the Maison?" When Qin Huaidao heard this, he also felt incredible, this was completely different from Li Shimin's attitude towards the family before.
"Yes, a lot of it has been enabled, in addition, according to the information we know, the Fu Yin of Chang'an City was the prince's person before, but this time he was transferred to Bashu, and the official who is now in office is a member of the family, in addition, this time, we reported it to Your Majesty, and after Your Majesty read it, he didn't say anything, and he didn't know what was going on?" Ding Xinyang also sat there and said to Qin Huaidao.
"You mean to say that my father knew about it and didn't deal with it?" Qin Huaidao continued to ask rhetorically, and both of them nodded,
Qin Huaidao only knew at this moment that the capital itself had changed so much since he was absent for a few months, it seemed that something must have happened before, which made Li Shimin change his opinion of the family, or rather, Li Shimin had other plans, if he wanted to completely kill the family, then Li Shimin had no need to re-promote those officials, it was hard to suppress it before, and now it is definitely unrealistic to bring it up again.
"Hu Guogong, what do you say about this matter?" Chen Juhai looked at Qin Huaidao and continued to ask, Qin Huaidao was also thinking about it at the moment, if according to them, since it had been reported, Li Shimin did not let the Criminal Department investigate, if he continued to stare at this matter, it would be a little wrong.
"Let's do this first, wait for me to come back next time, recently, you are still staring at this matter, find out the flow of all the money, why the 200,000 yuan has not been returned to the merchant, if it is not returned, then this matter, how to deal with it at that time? This matter must be investigated! Qin Huaidao thought about it for a while and said to them,
Then the two of them reported on the matter of Dali Temple, Qin Huaidao listened to it, and at the same time gave some instructions for them to do it
, Then Qin Huaidao was thinking about this matter, and after thinking about it for a while, Qin Huaidao went to Wu Mei's courtyard, Wu Mei was teaching the two of them to recognize words, they were all simple words, and these words were also sorted out by Qin Huaidao for them to learn.
"Daddy!" Qin Han was very happy when he saw Qin Huaidao coming, and immediately pounced on him, and so did Qin Yu, Qin Huaidao picked up the two of them in one fell swoop.
"Why did you come to me, I thought you would go to the eldest princess's courtyard tonight!" Wu Mei saw Qin Huaidao coming over and said with a smile.
"Well, I'll sleep with you tonight." Qin Huaidao said to Wu Mei, teasing the two children at the same time.
"Don't, it's better for you to go to the eldest princess's yard, I'm not in a hurry, don't break the rules, I don't want to fight with the eldest princess, don't trouble me, I want to be stable, just accompany these two children to grow up!" Wu Mei smiled at Qin Huaidao and said,
Qin Huaidao rolled his eyes at Wu Mei helplessly.
"The eldest princess wants a son, if you don't go, she won't let you go, and by the way, she will hate me!" Wu Mei continued to laugh
。 "Okay, don't talk about this, it's troublesome to have more women! I'm going to tell you something, you can help me analyze it! Qin Huaidao interrupted Wu Mei and continued.
When Wu Mei heard this, she knew that Qin Huaidao must have something, so she asked the maid to take the two children to play, while Qin Huaidao and Wu Mei went to the study. Qin Huaidao told Wu Mei about the investigation of Dali Temple, and at the same time he also talked about his incomprehension of Li Shimin's behavior.
"Isn't that a very obvious thing, sir? Your Majesty is guarding against His Royal Highness the Prince, and now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has full wings, if he is a little careless, what if there is another change in Xuanwumen? Wu Mei whispered to Qin Huaidao.
"Impossible, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no opponent now!" Qin Huaidao looked at Wu Mei and asked.
"No opponents? His Majesty is his greatest adversary. Wu Mei asked Qin Huaidao rhetorically and said, Qin Huaidao was stunned for a moment when he heard it.
"Don't forget, as an emperor, he can't trust anyone, even his own son is not necessarily, otherwise, of course, Emperor Wu of Han will not lose Liu Ju, especially an emperor who has mastered great power, he will be willing to see that his power will be slowly lost, and the current His Majesty is still very young, only in his 40s and less than fifty years old,
Think about it, if you are in good health, Your Majesty will have no problem until you are sixty years old, can Your Majesty wait, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wait? Even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have this idea now, will he have an idea in the future? Your Majesty wants to guard against His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Wu Mei sat there and asked Qin Huaidao a series of questions,
Qin Huaidao was shocked by Wu Mei's statement, he had never thought about it before, but now that Wu Mei said this, of course he had to think about it.
"You said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no opponents, and now His Majesty has done it himself, however, I estimate that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will continue to train new opponents for the Prince, those opponents before that, that is for the Prince to join forces, and those who are being trained now are to balance His Royal Highness the Prince!" Wu Mei continued to speak to Qin Huaidao.
"Who?" Qin Huaidao looked at Wu Mei and asked.
"What do you say, your disciple, Li Shen!" Wu Mei smiled and said.
"Impossible, Li Shen doesn't have such a big pursuit of power!" Qin Huaidao immediately shook his head and said.
"Maybe not before, but in the future, it may not be gone, what if Wei Guifei is named the queen? Even if he was not named the queen, what if His Majesty hinted to those officials of the family to support Li Shen? You just said that the money flowed to other families, and in the end I estimate that it will be summarized in Li Shen's hands, this matter, I estimate that His Majesty acquiesced, if you check, there is no way, Your Majesty does not agree with you to announce it, do you dare to announce it? I don't know if the eldest grandson Wuji is enabled now! Wu Mei sat there and sighed.
"Enabled!" Qin Huaidao nodded affirmatively, he had heard of this matter.
"That's pretty much it!" Wu Mei said affirmatively.
"The eldest grandson Wuji is activated, he will definitely help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, right?" Qin Huaidao looked at Wu Mei incomprehensibly and asked.
"Yes, but it is possible for Wei Guifei to be sealed, this is a trading condition, I estimate that Your Majesty and the eldest grandson Wuji have negotiated, and the eldest grandson Wuji will come out to help Li Chengqian,
And after Wei Guifei began to seal, she helped Li Shen to pave the way for the position, you said that if it was at that time, even if Li Shen did not fight, would Wei Guifei agree? You must know that once Wei Guifei is sealed, then the entire internal treasury will be under the management of Wei Guifei, especially now that the internal concubine is very rich, and the crown princess will not be able to intervene at all at that time, this money, Wei Guifei will definitely use it to help Li Shen, and you, what should I do?
A friend of yours so to speak, right? In addition, it is your disciple, do you dare to say who you are helping? Do you dare to help one of them to kill the other? In this way, you are checked, and you are not biased towards anyone, so the entire court will be checked and balanced by His Majesty, and his position will be stable? Wu Mei smiled and said to Qin Huaidao.
"But is that necessary? Such a toss is equivalent to internal friction, I don't know how many resources need to be wasted, and how many big things will be delayed! Qin Huaidao was very incomprehensible about such a thing.
"What could be more important than the throne?" Wu Mei looked at Qin Huaidao with a smile and asked.
"However, who would dare to move the position of the father?" Qin Huaidao still can't understand, he can't figure it out, who still shakes Li Shimin's position.
"The position of the first emperor is also stable, Xiao Yu and they were important ministers in the hands of the first emperor, and in the end, His Majesty launched that matter, how many years did the first emperor be the emperor, and then he died depressed,
If it weren't for the carelessness of the first emperor, would it have allowed His Majesty to succeed? Are you not afraid when Your Majesty? The prince had never really touched the army before, but now, he led the army to fight, and this battle was won, so the army must have a good impression of him, especially the young generals, who must want to slap him, and those veteran generals are also old, and when they come down, it is those young generals on top, do you say that Your Majesty is not afraid?
In addition, when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in charge of internal affairs before, many officials were replaced, and officials in many places were all from the Prince, and now that His Majesty has come up, he will definitely secretly demote a group of officials and promote a group of officials from the family to carry out checks and balances. Wu Mei continued to say to Qin Huaidao, and Qin Huaidao just sat there thinking.
"Do you mean to say that this incident is an action by the father against His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Just to prevent this from happening? Qin Huaidao thought for a while and asked Wu Mei, who nodded. Is it so complicated? Qin Huaidao was still a little hard to believe.
"Master, this was thought of before His Majesty transferred you and His Royal Highness the Prince, otherwise, I wouldn't have waited for you to leave the capital to do it, so don't check this matter, stay there, maybe it will be useful one day, but it's useless now." Wu Mei reminded Qin Huaidao and said,
Qin Huaidao didn't speak, but thought about it there, this caught Qin Huaidao a little off guard, he didn't expect that the two of them would play like this, as a father to guard against his son like this, he actually arranged to limit his son's power, Li Shimin's attitude towards Li Chengqian has changed greatly in the past two years, Qin Huaidao thought that this position must be Li Chengqian's, and now it seems that there are still variables.
