Chapter 425: The idea is good, but it's a pity

As Huang Jin, he also had to admit that the matter that Sun Dan was operating was the best way to deal with it so far. Both the minister and the emperor took a step back and added a honorific title of Xianyu to King Xing's head, which was also an acceptable result for everyone.

The causes and consequences of this incident have been analyzed very clearly by Chen Hong in private. This matter involves the struggle between imperial power and relative power. Now, Jiajing has just succeeded to the throne for less than a year, and his foundation is unstable and the imperial power is not strong. The power of the civil service was further inflated after the death of Emperor Wuzong, and now, as soon as the emperor ascended the throne, they naturally refused to give up the benefits they had received.

Today's overall situation is that the emperor is weak and the minister is strong. And the emperor is a wise and martial man, and if he wants to cheer up, he will naturally fight for his due rights in the matter of the Great Rites.

If it is really as Sun Dan planned", the emperor went further, and the ministers took a step back and put a dedication to King Xing's head. The power of the emperor and his ministers was in a delicate balance. Acceptable to each other. This situation will also be settled.

However, in this way, this great credit fell into the hands of Sun Dan alive.

I think I, Huang Jin, ran back and forth with all his heart, and was cheeky and even shared half of the credit for his daughter-in-law, but in the end, Sun Dan got cheap and ended up making wedding clothes for others, how can I be willing?

Now that Yang Tinghe and Mao Cheng have backed down, why don't they take a step forward and finish their work in one battle? When the time comes, the emperor will naturally remember my Huang Jin's goodness, and he can't think of Sun Dan's credit.

Okay, let me Huang Jin be this peach picker.

Thinking of this, Huang Jin took a step forward: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this matter is a little unclean." ”

Strange to say, as soon as Huang Jin said this, the thunder in the sky actually stopped. Only the boundless rain was still falling, and everything was shrouded in the sound of the dense water.

Sun Dan was also a little surprised in his heart, and turned his head to look over.

The emperor asked: "Sun Qing has done a good job in this matter, why is it not clean?" ”

Huang Jindao: "Now, Yang Tinghe and Mao Cheng have retreated, which shows that they still have a sense of awe for Your Majesty." The art of war has clouds, one blow, then exhaustion, and three declines. Why not take this opportunity to go one step further and let them add another imperial character to the honorific title of the king of Xingxian, and change it to the emperor of Xingxian, and the queen mother is called the queen mother of Xingguo. ”

"This ......" The emperor was also greatly moved, and his thin and pale face kept flashing in the electric light.

Sun Dan understood what Huang Jin wanted to do, but he was a little helpless in his heart. He was already sure that this was a bad idea, and Yang Zhouhe's promise to add a Xianyu to King Xing's honorific title was already a great concession. Although Lao Yang is old-fashioned, he is an upright person, in fact, including Mao Cheng, the ministers in the court who oppose giving Jiajing's father the title of emperor are all virtuous and noble. The reason why he gave in now was probably because he didn't want to spend all the energy of the imperial court on the imperial examination.

This matter has come to this point, and it can be regarded as a happy ending.

As for the future, Jiajing must not be willing to accept that his father is just a vassal king, and he will definitely give him the title of emperor. However, by that time, Jiajing's imperial power had been consolidated, and Sun Dan didn't have to worry about it.

But it's too early to say this, and there is also a suspicion of hard work. With the toughness of the ministers, I am afraid that they may not be willing to agree.

It seems that this Huang Jin wants to share the credit from himself.

Sun Dan has always held an attitude of playing soy sauce in the matter of the Great Gifts, and he doesn't mind that others will share the credit, no matter what he gives birth to in the future, the pressure on his head will be much less. However, if it was replaced by Huang Jin, Sun Dan was greatly unhappy.

Sun Dan suddenly chuckled: "I'm afraid this thing is not easy to do, right?" ”

Huang Jin snorted: "Why is it not easy, I think since Yang Tinghe can take one step back, he can take two steps back, and now since he promised to go to Xianyu, what if he adds an emperor?" ”

The emperor also suddenly became excited: "Yes, yes, since Fu has taken a step back, this shows that he still has basic respect and awe for the royal family." What if he takes a step back? ”

Huang Jin then smiled flatteringly: "What Your Majesty said is very true, the so-called sky-high asking price, sitting on the ground to pay back, this price is always a little higher."

It's really not good, and then I reprimand it strictly, just like the buffalo in the countryside of Hubei, as long as you don't go, a whip will pass, no matter what, you have to walk a few steps. Even if you stop and go, you always move forward. ”

"Huang Ban, you are also a eunuch with a dignified celebrant and a seal seal, don't speak so vulgarly." The emperor wanted to speak with a straight face, but in the end he couldn't help but laugh: "Master Fu is not a buffalo. ”

Huang Jin: "Why not, Fu is simply a bull, and he hates it so much." ”

Both of them laughed at the same time.

Judging from their expressions now, under Huang Jin's instigation, the emperor seemed to have great confidence in further persecution of Yang Tinghe.

But Sun Dan didn't think so, Huang Jin arrived at the helm of the ceremonial supervisor for too long, and when he encountered the excerpt submitted by the cabinet, he had the right to be punished on the spot, and when he was in a bad mood, he directly criticized the two words "not allowed", and after a long time, I was afraid that he would even have a delusion, thinking that the cabinet and the six ministries were just decorations. The so-called papier-mΓ’chΓ© elders, clay sculptures and six monks, courtiers are representatives of scholars and scholars, representing the trend of public opinion in the world, and the end is very tight.

Even the emperor has nothing to do with them, you Huang Jin said that if you want to force them to make concessions, you will give in, is it too naΓ―ve?

Sun Dan had to pour a basin of cold water on the emperor's head: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that the ministers will not agree to this matter." ”

The emperor's heart was cold, and then he remembered the terrible thing about the ministers, but he was inexplicably a little timid in his heart.

Huang Jin was not convinced: "Sun Dan, what do you mean by this." The Son of Heaven is the father of everyone, do they dare to rebel? Besides, since they agreed to back down this time, it is a good sign, what about adding an imperial character? ”

Sun Dan smiled bitterly in his heart: Yang Tinghe promised to back down, because he didn't want to see the court situation go on like this, and he didn't know how many ministers he withstood pressure. You have to inch in now, Yang Ge Lao doesn't dare to nod.

The emperor asked Sun Dan: "Sun Dan, didn't you persuade Yang Ge Lao before, or would you go to be a lobbyist again?" ”

Sun Dan was anxious, let me persuade Yang Tinghe, that is an impossible ~.,~ task.

Sun Dan said deliberately: "It's not that Elder Yang Ge can't speak, but it's useless to persuade Elder Yang Ge alone." Your Majesty forgot about Mao Shangshu, this matter can't be done without Mao Shangshu's nod. As soon as the minister saw Mao Shangshu, he was afraid that he would not be able to convince him. ”

"Yes, don't talk about you, even if you meet Mao Cheng, an old master, why don't you feel bored. In this way, Yang Ting and you will go there for a trip, and as for Mao Cheng, you will find someone else. The emperor sighed and had to admit that what Sun Dan said was the truth.

Seeing this opportunity, Huang Jin immediately stepped forward and asked automatically: "Your Majesty, let the minister persuade Mao Cheng, the minister will definitely handle this matter properly." He didn't know how powerful Mao Shangshu was, he felt that he was an insider, and Mao Cheng was just a Shangshu, and it wasn't a big deal. Now that Yang Tinghe has acquiesced, what kind of bull is he still upholding?

No, Yang Tinghe should go over there, this credit must not let Sun Dan share the profits.

So, Huang Jin said again: "Don't bother the two of you, He's side, the ministers will do it together." ”

Sun Dan couldn't wait for Huang Jin to come out of the top cylinder, and hurriedly said to Emperor Jiajing: "Your Majesty, Huang Gonggong is just right to go." The minister is just a seven-grade Hanlin Academy editor, and when he saw Master Fu and Mao Shangshu, he was a subordinate, and he had to do the courtesy of a subordinate to see a superior first, and he was also cautious when he spoke. I'm afraid that when the time comes, when I see them, they won't give the minister a chance to speak at all, and they will send them off directly. Huang Gonggong is the inner minister, and he is at the same level as Fu and Mao Shangshu, and they have met each other, so it is good to talk about bottles."

Huang Jin rarely agreed with Sun Dan's words, and nodded again and again: "Yes, what Lord Sun said is very true." ”

But as soon as the words came out, Huang Jin sensed a hint of something wrong in his heart, how could this Sun Dan give this great credit to our family, no, no!

Adhering to the principle that if the enemy agrees, I will oppose it, and if the enemy opposes it, I will support it, Huang Jin vaguely felt that he seemed to be a little fooled by Sun Dan.

However, it was too late to regret at this time, the emperor listened to Sun Dan's words, pondered for a moment, and immediately said: "Sun Qing said it well, just trouble Huang Ban to run." ”

Huang Jin hurriedly said: "Yes, the minister will go to do this matter." ”

When Huang Jin retreated, the emperor said to Sun Dan: "Sun Qing, you did a good job. However, you still have to make a trip to Tongzhou. ”

As soon as the disadvantage was about to go to Tongzhou again, Sun Dan's head rose a little: "Yes, please show the emperor." ”

The emperor said: "You go to Tongzhou, that is, bring a message to the Queen Mother, let her not leave in a hurry, just wait a few more days, and Lian will definitely find a way to take her old man into the palace for reunion." Then you will go back to the capital, still listening to the errand by Lian's side. ”

Sun Dan breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, the minister will leave to see the Queen Mother." ”

As soon as Huo Tao's fold was released, it immediately caused great repercussions in the imperial court.

At the same time, Daughter-in-law Zhang went on another twist and turn.

When these two sang and harmonized, they disturbed people's hearts. It is said that some people are already dissatisfied with Yang Fu and Mao Cheng forcing the emperor's mother and son to not be able to get together, and they are ready to play a setback.

As a result, the already monolithic Yang Ting and the civil service system began to show a crack.

In this regard, Yang Tinghe had been prepared, and he also felt that he had done something inappropriate. Therefore, when Huang Jin came to him to ask for the word "emperor" to be added to the honorific title of Emperor Jiajing's parents, he was surprisingly silent.

Fu's silence made Huang Jin very excited, and under the stimulus of Qi Kai's victory, he thought that it would be easy for him to convince Mao Cheng. So, he didn't delay, and ran towards Tongzhou in high spirits.

At this time, Sun Dan returned to Tongzhou again, brought the emperor's meaning to the queen mother, and went to Mao Cheng to report everything he had when he met Yang Tinghe.

agreed that as expected, Mao Cheng immediately exploded.
