Chapter 185 People's hearts are easy, and the way of heaven is difficult

Also, King Gong felt that he had ...... I can't hold down the alcohol king.

For the sixth brother, King Gong is worshipful and awe-inspiring when he is young, and the fourth brother is the king, King Alcohol has always regarded King Gong as the de facto eldest brother, the eldest brother is like a father, and the ear is life-threatening, and for a long time, King Gong's words have the power of a strict father for King Alcohol.

Of course, the fifth brother is older, but when the fifth brother came to the third uncle Miankai's house, King Alcohol was still very young, and he couldn't even remember what the fifth brother looked like, and their feelings for each other were naturally estranged. In fact, even if Yi Cheng did not have a successor, he grew up in the palace from childhood to adulthood, and King Alcohol would never have the same reverence for King Gong as he did for his fifth brother.

Don't say anything else, let's talk about reading, although the book of the alcohol king is not as good as the fourth and sixth brothers, but it is generally passable, the fifth brother...... Hmph, it's just a straw bale!

I can't read, my brain is even more unrefreshing, and I am completely stunned when I talk and do things.

King Alcohol looked down on his fifth brother since he was a child.

However, people always have to grow up.

King Gong's long-term respect and obedience to King Gong have always maintained an attitude towards King Gong towards his little brother who has not grown up. On the other hand, if you are dissatisfied, you will reprimand and dictate at will.

King Gong didn't seriously think about it, this seventh brother had already married Fu Jin, gave birth to a son, was crowned the king of the county, added the title of prince, and was the minister of the imperial front, the minister of the guard, the key in charge of the seal of the Shenji camp, this capital, that capital, a large number of messengers, and he was already a serious minister of the country.

After retiring to the domain, King Gong's attitude did not change substantially.

Therefore, the Furong Pavilion, he rebuked the alcohol king for "fallacy". left no room for anything, and even said things like "don't call me Sixth Brother"; In the office of the Qianqing Palace, he scolded the alcohol king, "How much wine did you drink before you went out in the morning?" How is this nonsense here? ”

These words were all said in front of the relatives and noble ministers, and they did not save any face for King Alcohol at all.

King Gong did so. It is true that he is using the alcohol king as a son to "understand his own heart", but for another person, he must not speak so harshly, in the final analysis, deep down, he still regards the alcohol king as an ignorant younger brother, and he can shout at will.

But tonight. King Gong suddenly discovered that the seventh was no longer the seventh in the past - it was just that he, the elder brother, had not found out.

Before, how could he have imagined that he not only repeatedly argued with himself, but even interrupted his own speech?

When did this change begin?

On the topic of "Discussing the Heir of the Emperor", King Alcohol "broke the earth", and he did not say anything. Be the first to advocate and choose the good and stubborn. From beginning to end, he showed an extremely strong sense of independence, enterprising spirit and desire to lead the trend, which was unimaginable before!

Where was the turning point?

It should be in his own "retreat to the domain".

King Alcohol must have thought so: Since the sixth brother has "retired to the domain", then. The sixth brother's position should be taken by me, and in the clan, I should be the leader, and when there is a big event, it should be me to take the lead!

In the wings and shadows of King Gong for many years. finally got to the end, so I couldn't wait to break out!

Others may not take the alcohol king for granted, but the alcohol king himself must take this for granted, and he also has enough confidence and self-confidence.

This is the Divine Machine Battalion.

He came to King Gong, not to ask for "approval", but to seek "support", and to King Gong's words, he was no longer submissive, and there were more and more times of repeated arguments.

He even interrupted King Gong's words - this is extremely unusual, under normal circumstances, only elders to juniors, superiors to subordinates, can do this. But even if the elders are to the juniors, and the superiors are to the subordinates, this move cannot be done lightly, because it is very disrespectful to the interlocutor.

Not only did the alcohol king do this, but he didn't feel anything about his unprecedented impolite behavior.

Many things, without the person in question, have changed unconsciously!

Alas, the seventh is no longer the old seventh of the past, and he can no longer be treated with the same set as in the past!

The relationship between himself and him has changed substantially!

King Gong was shocked: If you ...... He really seeks a big position, and he doesn't talk about anyone else, just this seventh brother - can he be convinced?

If it was placed five years ago, King Gong still had the certainty that King Alcohol was "convinced", and now-

King Gong couldn't help but shake his head slightly: No more!

Also, judging from King Alcohol's insistence on "establishing the heir emperor" in advance, he has an extremely deep obsession with the normal inheritance of the unification, can he allow someone to turn over the old accounts of seventeen years ago and overthrow the existing unification?

I'm afraid it's difficult!

King Gong once thought that "the way of heaven and the heart of the people" were all here for him, but now he calmed down and looked back - don't talk about the "way of heaven" first, first talk about the "people's heart", is this "people's heart" really here in his own place?

I'm afraid it may not be!

My own brother is not sure of myself, but what about others?

One by one, swing and swing.

The first is the clan.

In the clan, which one is his diehard? Which one is willing to risk lifelong imprisonment or even killing his head to earn this "meritorious service"?

I can't think of a single one.

"Over there", there are a lot of flag-waving and shouting!

The "over there" in King Gong's mind is naturally the biggest obstacle to his quest for the throne - Guan Zhuofan.

Let's look at the local governors.

At the time of the coup d'état in Qixiang, Su Shun, who was in prison, had the idea of asking the governor to protect Li Bao - if Zeng Guofan, Luo Bingzhang, Lao Chongguang, Guan Wen, Peng Yulin and others folded their heads separately and asked for "extra mercy" to spare the death of Su Shun, Zaiyuan, Duanhua and others, then the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces and King Gong, no matter what, could not help but buy face, and at that time they would make efforts to suppress the bandits, all relying on this group of people.

In this regard, Su Shun is sure, because it was originally his idea to reuse Han personnel and rely on localities, and Zeng Guofan, Luo Bingzhang, Guanwen, Peng Yulin, etc. can have today, and his strong support is inseparable.

However, Su Shun was disappointed in the end! Zeng Guofan and other Han people, of course, did not let out a fart. The official Wen Manchurian didn't say a word, and the governor of the 18 provinces was silent, watching Su Shun being pushed to the entrance of the vegetable market.

In the end, it's okay to be "on top". Whether it is a prisoner under the stairs or watching the excitement next to them, they all understand and figure it out: in the eyes of the local governor, the "top" changes back and forth, but it is just "making housework", who goes up and who goes down, it's our business? Anyway, we don't move our seats!

This truth, when I killed Su Shun, Zaiyuan, and Duanhua, I understood it, how to change the country. Confused?

The cold sweat on King Gong's back was pouring out layer by layer.

What's more, the current local governors, the most important territories such as Liangjiang and Liangguang, all have private individuals "over there", and the minds of Zhili, Huguang, Shaanxi and Gansu, even if they are not allies of "that side", they will definitely not take the initiative to stand on the opposite side of "that side".

What about the cardinal?

King Gong smiled bitterly: Not to mention!

Regardless of "him". Of the rest of the big military aircraft, only Wen Xiang is the only one who "owns himself". However, King Gong knows that Wen Xiang is not Bao Jun, this moment is not Xin Younian, Guan someone is not Su someone, Wen Xiang will never support himself to dig over the old accounts more than ten years ago!

Cabinet, Six Ministries, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate......

The first and second grade of the big guy. Counting the past one by one, either they are not to be ashamed, or they will not wade into this muddy water at all, or they are "his" people.

There are very few "own people" who are truly reliable.

The more I think about it, the more frustrated I become!

The "team" that he has painstakingly cultivated over the years. Where have they gone?

After a long period of boredom, King Gong finally figured out this problem.

Most of their so-called "team" is actually still there, but most of them can only play a role if they are on stage. That is to say, among this group of people, there are not many people like Baojun who are really counted as their "private", and there are very few who are willing to "die" for themselves in good times or in bad times.

What's more, many of them, including the most important and core members of the original "Gong line", such as Cao Yuying, Xu Gengshen and others, have already "passed" over there!

One trade-off!

The rest of the people have been repeatedly split and scattered, and even if some people still have "hearts", it is difficult to form a joint force.

For example, his former most important "base" is now the Prime Minister's National Affairs Yamen, which no longer exists.

Looking back, King Gong couldn't help but wonder if the idea he gave Wen Xiang and Bao Jun before he left to "two-in-one" of the Prime Minister's National Affairs Yamen and the Advisory Committee would ...... Is it a bad idea? After the "two-in-one", not only did they fail to grab a new piece of land, but even lost the original territory!

Alas!

Moreover, "over there" is also cultivating its own "team", quietly, in a few years, it has been outstanding and successful!

Also, King Gong thought about it carefully, whether it is the court or the locality, most of the people "he" placed in key positions are his "private individuals", and when there is something, they can "serve and die" for him, which he really can't compare!

The army - not to mention!

Alas!

Speaking of the "Heavenly Dao" - the "existing unity", is there really a problem? If there is indeed a problem, then is the problem really so big that it must be overturned and restarted?

Wenzong was indeed opportunistic, but when Nanyuan was hunting, "he couldn't bear to hurt his life to dry the heavens"; Before Xuanzong's royal couch, he fell to the ground and sobbed, admiring Zhicheng, these, reprimanded him for "pretending", he could only slander, there was no empirical evidence, and it was impossible to use these to prove that he was "not in the right position".

As for Baojun's criticism of Xuanzong for "not being virtuous", it is true that King Gong is recognized as more capable than Wenzong, but so what? What is the proof of this? - How do you prove that if you were appointed as the prince back then, you, the emperor, would definitely do better than Wenzong? After all, time cannot be turned back!

Without real evidence, it is difficult to establish the accusation that Xuanzong appointed the fourth son of the emperor as the prince and "did not follow the ancestral system".

Bao Jun's words seem to be imposing and eloquent, but in fact, they can only be used to cheer up their own people, or to ferment public opinion in the dark, and cannot be put on the table to give the opponent a fatal blow.

There is only one "bayberry" that can really be used.

It is possible for the little emperor's "bayberry" and "pass" to his own parents, but whether it is "over" his biological father or "over" his biological mother, it all depends on inference, no matter who "passes" himself, there is no empirical evidence, it is really difficult to conclude, it must be said that the little emperor's "bayberry" is the responsibility of Wenzong, even King Gong himself is not convinced, how can he convince most of the bystanders?

What's more, King Gong believes that in this matter, if you have to choose between the "biological father" and the "biological mother", "over there" will definitely choose the "biological mother", the reason, Baojun himself has also analyzed, if the little emperor's "bayberry" "passes" from his biological father, Wenzong will be incorrect, and himself, his son, and his wife will all be shaken; If the little emperor's "bayberry" "passes" his biological mother, he will only be guilty of Cixi, and the status of Wenzong, the little emperor and Ci'an will be safe and sound.

Thinking about it, the "Heavenly Dao" may not be here if it is like this!

If the "human heart" is unreliable, the "way of heaven" is also unreliable...... So, what else do you have?

Without?

Without.
