Volume 1 Chapter 156 Surrender
() It is easy to add to the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow.
When things are clear, everyone knows that Yuan Zimu is the future prince and then go to refuge, the daylily is cold, Du Xinlei understands this truth.
The capital has been very lively these days, everyone has something to talk about after tea and dinner, and the officialdom mainly discusses one thing, that is, the emperor ordered the seventh prince Prince Bao Yuan Zixi to preside over the trial of the case of the Anguo Gongfu's family, everyone doesn't know what he will do, and they can't help but be a little panicked.
In fact, like these things committed by the Anguo Gongfu, the nobles of that family have them, who have houses, fields and relatives in their hometown, and they are powerful and powerful as officials, and they are not allowed to enjoy the happiness of their relatives in their hometown?
That's impossible.
It's just that they don't allow it, and the relatives in their hometown still don't agree, and there are magistrates, if they want to slap them, the first thing is to slap the relatives in their hometown first, and only by taking the line can they proceed to the next step.
Therefore, for more than a hundred years in the northern country, this trend has intensified, and the emperor has long had a headache, but these nobles and local squires have formed an intertwined network of relationships, and it is really difficult to set off.
This time, if it weren't for the fact that the old couple who went to Beijing to file a complaint made a big fuss, the emperor might not have made up his mind.
Therefore, in this matter, Yuan Zixi's attitude is very important, what he wants to do, to what extent will he do it, this point, everyone thinks that they have to listen and understand.
If Yuan Zixi has a heart, he will definitely be connected from this case to another case, and it is very possible to get down to those ministers who are not on the same front as him.
So the will, the most panicked and tangled is the Lin family.
At the beginning, Lin Zhiyang was naturally happy, and secretly thought that it was best to add fire behind his back, so that the Anguo Mansion would be completely finished, and it would be best to abolish the queen by the way, and there would be hope for his daughter to enter the middle palace.
But then, a letter from his hometown gave him a headache.
It turned out that although the Lin family and the queen's family seemed to be incompatible, Yuzhou, where the Lin family's ancestral home was located, was next to Yingzhou, so some Zhuangzi of the Lin family were next to the queen's mother's family, the Tian family.
There was no shortage of filthy quarrels between the two families before
Gong, what the relatives of the Lin family are most afraid of is that Yuan Zixi will take this opportunity to check his family by the way, so he hurried to write to Lin Zhiyang to find a way.
The letter said that in case Yuan wanted to check the Lin family by the way, the Lin family would not be able to withstand the investigation at all.
And the Lin family's crimes are much more serious than the Tian family of Anguo Mansion, the Tian family has been very low-key because the queen has been sick for many years, their Lin family is different, how many years has Queen Tian been sick, how many years has the imperial concubine been arrogant, and the Lin family has been rampant for many years.
Lin Zhiyang was so angry, he didn't know about these things, he just didn't pay attention to them, and now that he was reminded, he couldn't help but worry, and he was so anxious at home that the porter came to report, "Master, Master Du is visiting." ”
"Please." Lin Zhiyang is still very convinced of Du Xinlei's ability, after all, because of his idea, although he lost a son, his daughter's status was retained, and his grandson could continue to fight for the throne.
"I haven't seen the boss for many days, and Du is missing it tightly." As soon as Du Xinlei entered the door, he greeted Lin Zhiyang.
Lin Zhiyang put on a polite corporal, "Bachelor Du is visiting, the old man is very honored, please take a seat." ”
The little guy came to tea, and Du Xinlei didn't go around the corner, just to get straight to the point, "The emperor ordered Prince Bao to preside over the trial of the case of the Anguo Mansion running rampant in his hometown, I don't know what the boss thinks?" ”
Lin Zhiyang was worried about this matter, but Du Xinlei took the initiative to ask, but he didn't want to ask for help directly, after all, Du Xinlei is only a bachelor of Hanlin Academy, and his grade is only a five-grade, but he is a first-grade master, and it is a bit cheaper to ask for advice directly.
He stroked his beard and played officially, "What can the old man think of this, the emperor has his own intentions, let's listen to it as courtiers." ”
Du Xinlei smiled, "The boss is loyal to the emperor, and he admires it in his later life." ”
Lin Zhiyang continued to play officially, but he was anxious in his heart, and couldn't help asking: "I don't know how Mr. Du and Prince Bao are friends?" Has Prince Bao revealed what will happen to this case? ”
If you want to know what Yuan Zixi should do in this case, the best way is to ask him personally, but if Lin Zhiyang is killed, Lin Zhiyang will not ask.
Du Xinlei and Yuan Zi
Xi has no friendship, Du Xinlei wants to take refuge in Yuan Zimu, but since Lin Zhiyang asked, he couldn't help but answer, thought about it and smiled: "No matter what the prince wants to do, I feel that the boss must not move." ”
"Oh, what do you mean by that?"
"I don't know if the boss has ever thought about why the emperor ordered Prince Bao to preside over this case?"
Lin Zhiyang originally thought that Du Xinlei was going to say something profound, but it turned out to be this, and he couldn't help but scoff a little, and said angrily: "Naturally, because it involves the queen's mother's family, the weight of the three divisions is not heavy enough, and it means that it is easy to do things with a prince." ”
Du Xinlei shook his head, "The boss only said one thing, but he didn't say the second." ”
Lin Zhiyang became concerned, "Then you can talk about it." ”
Du Xinlei smiled, "This is the second one, it is the deep meaning of the emperor's selection of Prince Bao, if it is simply because it is easy to do things by pressing a prince, then the third prince, the fifth prince, the sixth prince and even the ninth prince have this ability, why did the emperor appoint only the seventh prince?" ”
"Why?"
Du Xinlei changed the topic again, "The emperor is old, the ministers of the court and the central government are arguing every day to establish the crown prince, and the sons are also restless, the emperor is bound to consider this matter as soon as possible, in the eyes of the late life, only Prince Bao and Prince Rong are the most promising." ”
Lin Zhiyang couldn't help but roll his eyes, thinking to himself, do you still need to say this? This is not a lice on the monk's head, obviously.
Du Xinlei pretended not to see the disgust on Lin Zhiyang's face, and continued: "In this case, I believe that the emperor will have a steady stream of official affairs to officially explain to the princes in the future, and no longer let them be limited to just observing and studying in the court." ”
This sentence instantly made Lin Zhiyang anxious, "Then this is bad, Prince Bao has already shown his face once when he went to disaster relief before, and this time he hosted the case of the Anguo Mansion, if he is allowed to handle it well, wouldn't it be twice?" But Prince Rong didn't have a single one. ”
Just now, he was still thinking about whether he should add fire to it and let the Tian family of the Anguo Mansion be completely finished, but now he feels that the Tian family is not important, anyway, the queen has no son, and the most important thing is that Yuan Zixi must not be allowed to do this, and Yuan Zixi must be allowed to fail.
