Chapter 738: Cabinet Decision
"Princess, what are you going to do?"
The conversation just now was silent, and it was not until Shi Kefa's figure left the hall that she hurriedly asked.
"My father suffered a stroke and fell into a coma, and it is likely that he will never wake up again. Without my father, you and I will have no backer," Princess Kunxing said to Zhang Xiu'er with a pair of big eyes full of tears, "So, I want Chen Yue to come back, with Chen Yue in the court, we will have a backer." Moreover, I will never allow my father's painstaking efforts to maintain the country to fall into the hands of those who harbor all kinds of ghostly thoughts. ”
Zhang Xiuer is just a daughter of an ordinary family, she has always lived a simple life, even after entering the palace, because there are few concubines in Chongzhen, and there is the support of Princess Kunxing, she has always lived a carefree life, and she has not experienced anything bad at all, so she can't understand or understand Princess Kunxing's words at all.
"However, we are just women, and we can't call the shots about this court." Zhang Xiu'er said Ai Ai.
"If those courtiers could understand the affairs of the court, the Ming Dynasty would not be what it is now! This country belongs to my father, and I must not watch it go on and on! Princess Kunxing's eyes shone firmly, her father Chongzhen was seriously ill and did not wake up, and Kunxing felt that he had the responsibility to help him take care of this thousands of miles of country.
Moreover, Princess Kunxing still holds a glimmer of hope, that is, her father will be able to wake up one day. For more than a year, Princess Kunxing has not been idle like an ordinary princess, in charge of the business of the Four Seas Commercial Bank, always paying attention to the situation of the Ming Dynasty, coupled with the influence of Chen Yue, her current knowledge is far above that of ordinary courtiers, and she is no longer the weak little princess in Beijing in the past!
Zhang Xiu'er didn't understand everything Kun Xing planned, but she knew that she, like the princess, had a close relationship with Chen Yue, and if Chen Yue could return to the court, of course, it would be in her best interest.
......
"Motosuke, what's wrong?" Seeing Shi Kefa walking out of the hall angrily, Wang Duo hurriedly greeted him and asked.
"Back to the Cabinet!" Shi Kefa did not answer directly, flicked his sleeves and took the lead in the direction of the cabinet.
Chongzhen's condition has been diagnosed, the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctors has been caught and boiled and poured down, several people are cabinet elders, and there are a lot of things in the cabinet waiting to be dealt with, and there is no need to stay in this Qianqing Palace. The cabinet itself is in the palace, and when there is something here, it can be known as soon as possible, so Qian Qianyi and Wang Duo also followed Shi Kefa.
Han Zan Zhou Gong sent a few pavilion elders out of the Qianqing Palace, and as soon as he came back, he dragged a eunuch to interrogate.
"What's going on? What did the princess and concubine Xian say to Shi Gelao? Han Zanzhou asked in a low voice.
"Ancestor, slave maid, slave maid don't know, the princess drove out all the eunuchs and palace maids, and no one can hear what she talked about with Yuanfu. The slaves didn't dare to go in and listen to it. ”
"Useless stuff!" Han Zan threw him aside on Monday, looked at the open door of the palace and frowned slightly, secretly wondering what the princess was looking for Shi Kefa? However, judging from Shi Kefa's attitude, the two did not talk very happily.
......
Shi Kefa was silent all the way, and only cared about walking quickly, although he was short in stature, it was difficult for Wang Duo, a tall man, to keep up.
"Motosuke, what the hell is going on?"
In the class room, seeing that Shi Kefa was still puffing up, Wang Duo asked again, and Qian Qianyi also pricked up his ears, waiting for Shi Kefa's reply.
"What else can happen, just a princess, she actually interfered in the affairs of the court, and she forgot the ancestral training that the harem could not interfere in!"
Shi Kefa said angrily and told the two of them what had happened.
"Tut, Princess Kunxing looks weak, I didn't expect her heart to be so big!" Wang Duo praised that he was an old man during the Beijing Imperial Court, so he naturally recognized Princess Kunxing.
"Your Majesty suddenly suffered a stroke and fell into a coma, the princess, she suddenly lost her support and panicked, because of the relationship with Chen Yue, the Duke of Qi, she naturally hoped that Chen Yue could be by her side, the thoughts of the youngest daughter's family were easy to understand, Yuan Fu was angry, there was no need to be with a little daughter." Qian Qianyi smiled and comforted.
"Little daughter, I'm afraid it may not be!" Wang Duo said, "Mu Zhaigong, I'm afraid you don't know this princess, don't look at her just sixteen or seventeen years old, but it's not simple at all. When she was in Beijing, she was only fourteen years old, and she teamed up with Qi Guogong to start a honeycomb coal business that swept the entire city of Beijing, and the silver she earned relieved His Majesty's urgent needs several times. At that time, she claimed that she wanted to share her father's worries, but Her Majesty was moved and couldn't bear to blame her. After arriving in Nanjing, she also took care of the business of the Four Seas Merchant in secret, so she is by no means a simple little daughter, but a heroine among women! ”
"What a heroine among women, playing the piano indiscriminately!" Shi Kefa had already lost his anger at this time, and scolded Wang Duo angrily, "No matter how you say that she is also the eldest princess of Your Majesty, it is better not to talk nonsense about some things." But no matter what, the major affairs of the court are not something that she can ask about as a princess. ”
"Yuanfu, what should I do about what the princess said, should the Duke of Qi be transferred back to the imperial court?" Wang Duo asked with a smile.
Although the princess should not interfere in the affairs of the court, but she suddenly mentioned Chen Yue, the Duke of Qi, it may not be for no reason, this matter is Shi Kefa also has to pay attention to.
After thinking about it carefully for a while, Shi Kefa didn't express his opinion, but asked, "What do the two pavilion elders think about this matter?" ”
Qian Qianyi stretched out his hand and picked up the teacup, not in a hurry to answer, so Wang Duo said first.
"Although the Duke of Qi defeated the main force of the Western Thieves, the Western Thieves are far from being eliminated, at this time, of course, the Duke of Qi should take advantage of the situation to pursue, destroy the rest of the troops and then wave his troops into Sichuan, and recapture Sichuan from the Western Thieves.
Therefore, not only should it not be allowed to return to the court, but it should be ordered to move its army forward, from Jiujiang to Wuchang or Jingzhou, in preparation for the recovery of Sichuan. ”
Although he didn't have many festivals with Chen Yue, the Duke of Qi, in the eyes of a civil official like Wang Duo, a military general like Chen Yue was still as far away from the imperial court as possible, especially in this critical period.
Chongzhen had a stroke, and the possibility of getting better is very small, and now the matter of establishing the vassal king as the heir is imminent, after all, the country cannot be without a king for a day. If Chen Yue is transferred back to Nanjing, he will inevitably interfere in this matter by virtue of the military power in his hands, and many variables will inevitably arise out of thin air.
Moreover, Chen Yue has a powerful army in his hands, if he has any dissenting intentions and starts the idea of conspiring for the throne, with his martial arts in the army, who can govern him?
They are all old foxes, although Wang Duo did not say it clearly, Shi Kefa and Qian Qianyi were naturally clear about Wang Duo's worries.
Qian Qianyi still had other thoughts in his heart, and naturally he didn't want Chen Yue to lead the troops back to the court, but since Wang Duo had already said what he wanted to say, Qian Qianyi was silent, just nodded and agreed with Wang Duo's opinion.
Shi Kefa's mind was similar to that of Wang Duo, and seeing that everyone was unanimous, he said, "Since this is the case, I will draft a will and hand it over to the celebrant to seal it." ”
Which vassal king is appointed as the heir, is related to the fate of the Ming Dynasty, this kind of matter has to be in the hands of the cabinet, like Chen Yue military generals must not interfere, in order to prevent the recurrence of the rebellion of King Fu, this is the consensus of several cabinet elders.
