Just when all the forces in the capital were talking about the auspicious fortune of the day, the emperor finally put the matter on the court. Although the courtiers had all kinds of thoughts before, their expressions immediately became subtle when they saw the natural jade in front of them. Those who are so confused naturally think of the omen of heaven, and those who are so clever are to think about the role of the emperor in this matter. You must know that such treasures are rare but not sought, and if you don't put a lot of effort into it, how can you find something so suitable for the situation?

The emperor looked at the ministers looking at each other without saying a word, but he was very proud in his heart. Entrusting the matter of concocting auspicious rui to a military general like Zhan Pohan, he was originally extremely uneasy. However, the result of the matter was better than he imagined, not some kind of Ganoderma lucidum from the sky or a perfunctory rice ear or something, but such a heavy thing. Thinking about it, the emperor's brows suddenly raised, just like the courtiers below, he also thought of the key to the matter, if it wasn't prepared in advance, it would not be easy to find this kind of thing. But it's only a recent matter to give Zhan Pohan a secret decree, is this really providence?

Hai Guanyu caught a glimpse of the intriguing smile on the corner of the emperor's mouth at a glance, and he sighed slightly, no matter what Zhan Pohan thought, concocting such an auspicious thing is a good thing that the emperor can't ask for, not to mention that there is also a wonderful article written by that master.

Seeing that none of the ministers spoke, He Weitao immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, now that Taizu has foreshadowed it, it is time for His Royal Highness the Seventh to return to the court." The war in the northwest has been repeated, and Lord Xiao and Lord He are not in the court, and the government affairs are inevitably becoming more and more complicated. His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince Gongju. This time to Jingling and get the love of Taizu, it is better to immediately recall and entrust him with important tasks, so as to share the emperor's worries and solve problems. "Although He Weitao is cunning and cunning. But the Xiao family repeatedly sent people to hint that the emperor had an ambiguous attitude. He had to make a birdie to test it. If he can succeed in one fell swoop this time, he will ascend the throne without a trace, and his name of support will be indispensable in the credit book.

Although Feng Wuyan hated itchy, at this moment, neither his position nor his situation allowed him to speak out. Yet resentment gnawed at him like a poisonous snake. Before he knew it, his fists were clenched tightly, and his nails were sinking deep into his flesh without noticing.

On the side, Feng Wuhou noticed Feng Wuyan's strange appearance, and couldn't help but smile in his heart. This third brother was arrogant before, but now he is carried away by jealousy, and he really lives up to the name of "Virtuous King". If you can win the support of Shilin instead, how can you have such an unwise move? Although he wanted to show favor to Feng Wuxian in the court, the wind was clear, and this opportunity drew a clear line with Feng Wuyan.

It is easy to cause misunderstanding by others, not to mention that the third brother will definitely regard himself as a thorn in his side, even other princes will think that he is a wallgrass. There are many opportunities to sell good land horizontally and vertically. Don't be in a hurry at this time, Feng Wuhou smiled slightly, and made up his mind to watch from the wall.

He Weitao's remarks made many officials who were originally going to watch the situation couldn't help it, and it was a fact that everyone knew that this criminal department was still the backbone of the Xiao family's party. He has no intention of avoiding suspicion, and others have no scruples. At present, a group of courtiers who cling to the Xiao clan have come out to advise, as if the wind does not come back without a trace, and no one will pay attention to the affairs of the DPRK and China. And the resolute attitude of He Weitao, Yue Qianfan and Mi Jingfu made the He family, who were not very firm, shrink back.

Now among the six departments, the Xiao party accounts for half, and all of them are important positions, how can others fight for it?

Although the emperor had the intention to recall Feng Wuxi, he still frowned imperceptibly when he saw the courtiers rushing to be the first to do so. As he expected, the power of the Xiao family is growing, and I am afraid that the new monarch may not be able to suppress it when he ascends the throne in the future. For a moment, he was a little skeptical of his decision, and it seemed that it was not easy to sit still. The emperor glanced at Haiguanyu and Feng Zhi, who were standing at the head of the hundred officials, and these two people did not say a word, and they seemed to be silent to the end. The emperor couldn't help but smile to himself, since the chess has come to this point, there is no regret about the fall, and there is no reason to retreat.

"What you Aiqing said is very true, there are too few princes in the court who can do practical things, and since Taizu has given auspiciousness, my dream will come true. When the period of one year was set, I didn't have any other intentions, just to fulfill a little filial piety for future generations, and now that the war in the northwest is together, presumably Taizu will not care about such a trivial matter. The emperor glanced at the officials with different expressions below, and suddenly uttered an inexplicable sentence, "Doing your best for the country and being a minister is righteous, this is what Taizu said to encourage his ministers back then, and I am now giving this to you." ”

Just when the officials were suspicious, they only heard the emperor speak again: "The upper room will draft an order on the same day, and summon Prince Qin to return to Beijing without a trace." In addition, the general army of the large battalion guarding the tomb sent 500 people to obey and report on their work in Beijing! After that, the emperor didn't bother to look at the reaction on the faces of the courtiers, and brushed his sleeves away, leaving only Shi Liushun hurriedly shouting

A "retreat!" ”

The officials with ghosts left the hall one by one, but they were all thinking about the emperor's words in their hearts.

Even powerful ministers like He Weitao, who already had seven or eight points of certainty, couldn't help but be uneasy, and they gathered together at once. Although the emperor explicitly forbade the formation of parties for personal gain, the monarch could only turn a blind eye to the increasingly arrogant private discussions of the courtiers. At that moment, He Weitao, Yue Qianfan and a few others left the attendant guards and slipped into Yiqing Garden one after another. The people who come and go here are all big families with heads and faces, so the host takes care of them very well, and each big man has a special way in and out, so he can meet others without worry.

"Lao He, what does the emperor mean?" Yue Qianfan asked a little puzzled, "Obviously, that auspicious rui means that the Seventh Highness will return as soon as possible, isn't it just right for us to take advantage of the situation today?" Looking at the emperor's meaning, he seems to be a little unhappy. ”

Mi Jingfu is also a little discouraged, although he is now acting as the acting servant of the Ministry of Officials, but after all, compared to the two in front of him, his qualifications are still shallow, if he accidentally falls on the official career, it may be difficult to get up again. Therefore, when he thought of today's recklessness, he regretted that his bowels were blue.

"Alas, caring is chaotic, we are in a hurry!" He Weitao shook his head helplessly, "I didn't have anything to say, but you all violated the emperor's taboo by following behind." Although the emperor is already old, after all, it is still early for that day, how can he let me and others build such momentum for a prince? It's all because I'm confused for a while, I didn't care about the queen's orders, this kind of big thing is too much! His sighing appearance immediately infected the other two, and all three of them fell silent.

After a long time, Yue Qianfan finally couldn't help but ask, "Then, will the emperor change his mind?" He glanced at He Weitao's face and cautiously continued, "The emperor has already ordered Zhan Pohan to accompany His Royal Highness the Seventh into Beijing, there should be no more variables?" "The relationship between him and Feng Wuxian is extraordinary, if it fails, others may clear up the relationship in the future, but it is impossible for him to get off the boat again, his nominal daughter is Feng Wuxi's side concubine, and the two families can be regarded as a legitimate family.

"The idea will not be changed, the emperor is a Ming monarch, and he will not make decisions easily, and he will not change easily." He Weitao said thoughtfully, "It's just that our behavior today will arouse suspicion, I hope the emperor won't have a pimple in his heart." As he spoke, he recalled the emperor's last sentence, and felt more and more esoteric, "Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, and the two of you must be more careful in the future." Because the three of them were all ants on a rope, he said a few extra words.

Yue Qianfan and Mi Jingfu glanced at each other and nodded at the same time. For He Weitao, who is cunning and has been favored for a long time, the two have great trust in each other, after all, whether it is qualifications or family background, this person is a first-class person. In Xiao Yunchao's absence, He Weitao naturally became the backbone, and even those staff members of the Xiao Mansion were particularly respected, asking for advice from time to time, and no one dared to slack off.

Mi Jingfu seemed to have thought of something very important, and suddenly gritted his teeth and said: "Lord He, Lord Yue, His Royal Highness Eleven has come to me several times recently, and there have been hints in his words repeatedly, so I had to drag it and not reply to him. I have also sent someone to investigate, and it seems that during this time, he and several sons of the Xiao family are very close, and often go in and out together. The current situation is strange and ever-changing, and I still don't know the essentials, so I ask the two adults to give me an idea, what should I do? ”

The wind is not sorry? He Weitao and Yue Qianfan felt a beat in their hearts at the same time, for this prince who had the highest demand for succession before, it seemed that he had been completely forgotten by the Xiao family. If in the past, he could win the favor of the powerful ministers in Beijing by relying on the favor of his mother Xiao, then now the rise of his brother Feng Wuxian has robbed him of all his light. After removing that coat, people see only a spoiled and willful prince, who does not know responsibility, does not know how to behave, and can even be said to be useless except for his noble status.

However, although Shaw has not said anything at present, who knows what will happen in the future? For mothers, young sons always have to take advantage of them. He Weitao pondered his sentence and said: "Xiaomi, you don't need to worry so much, just perfunctory on weekdays." If you really can't do it, can't you dodge? It's difficult for us to be courtiers, and those princes can't be provoked by anyone. I am now hoping that the emperor can establish a prince as soon as possible, so that I don't have to worry so much anymore. When His Royal Highness first took power, he didn't see everyone raise their heads high, but now they are not the same drooping heads! Feng Shui takes turns, so it's better for everyone to be cautious. ”

This is equivalent to saying nothing, but Mi Jingfu is already grateful. He Weitao was able to complain in front of him, which undoubtedly affirmed his status in the Xiao family. The three of them sighed almost at the same time, there is wine today and drunk today, and Hengzhi has already arrived at this gold cave, how can he be worthy of himself if he is not good to enjoy it?
