Chapter 406: Kneeling at the Noon Gate
After nightfall, a carriage arrived at Moyunxuan in the inner city of the capital under the escort of several big men. Heavenly sound.' ⒉
Mo Yunxuan is a calligraphy and painting shop, which has a history of more than 100 years, and is also well-known in the capital, and many dignitaries come here to buy calligraphy and paintings.
As the carriage stopped, Qin Yue came out of the carriage with the support of her personal maid Xiaolan, and led the big men to the closed door of Mo Yunxuan with a serious expression.
After receiving Rou'er's report in the afternoon, Qin Yue's mood has not been calm, she knows that although Li Hongyu doesn't like the Donglin Party very much, he still respects Yang Lian, a fellow villager, very much, and the personal relationship between the two is also good, so it is not surprising that Yang Lian brought the letter.
What is especially important is that Li Hongyu and Yang Lian are both people who support the prince, so Li Hongyu's mysterious letter must be related to the prince, which is why Yang Lian behaved so cautiously.
Moreover, Mo Yunxuan was a place full of bookish atmosphere, so Qin Yue did not suspect that this matter was false.
"Wait!"
Without waiting for a big man who was following Qin Yue to step forward and knock on the door, a man wearing a hat suddenly flashed out of the shadows on the side and opened his mouth to stop him.
Seeing this, the big men who were guarding Qin Yue immediately rushed up to block the man wearing the hat, lest he hurt Qin Yue.
Because the man's hat was pressed very low, Qin Yue couldn't see his appearance clearly, but because of his bare hands, Qin Yue didn't feel any hostility on his body.
"This is a trap, Lord Yang didn't see Li Hanlin at all today, so there is no letter, you leave, otherwise you will bear the consequences if it is late."
The man in the hat admonished Qin Yue in a hoarse voice, then turned around and hurried away, quickly disappearing into the shadows far away from the street.
"Miss, what shall we do?" Seeing this, Xiaolan couldn't help but nervously ask Qin Yue, who was standing there with a slight frown, but she didn't expect that the person wearing the hat actually knew about the letter.
"Let's go!"
Qin Yue stared at the direction in which the man in the hat left, muttered for a moment and then turned around and walked towards the carriage, although she didn't know why the man in the hat wanted to warn her, but since he knew so much about the letter, it was obvious that he was not lying, so she immediately chose to leave.
As Qin Yue got into the car, the carriage galloped down the street under the escort of those big men, leaving a series of crisp horses' hooves in the silent night sky.
"What's going on?" When the carriage left, Mo Yunxuan's closed door opened, and a man who looked like a man came out of it, looking at the carriage that disappeared around the corner of the street with a stunned expression, and then hurriedly went in to report.
"What, gone?" In a room in Mo Yunxuan's backyard, Zhang Quan looked at the guy who came to report with some astonishment, and was very surprised that Qin Yue had come and gone.
"Little Hou Ye, the little one seems to have vaguely heard someone talking to Miss Qin, and then Miss Qin left." The guy thought for a moment, bowed down and said to Zhang Quan.
"Someone betrayed us?" At this time, one of the several sons and daughters in the room reacted and said to Zhang Quan with a frown.
"Who is so bold that he dares to provoke us, is he impatient to live!" Immediately, another boy spoke, patted his hand on the table, and said coldly, the bureau they had finally set up was ruined like this, but they were waiting for Qin Yue's Fangze.
"Do you know who that whistleblower is?" Hearing this, Zhang Quan asked the guy with annoyance, hating the person who had ruined his good deeds.
As everyone knows, the whistleblower invisibly saved his life, if he dared to touch Qin Yue, then Li Hongyu would dare to transfer a new army into the city to level the Wuwei Marquis Mansion, the hatred of killing his father and taking his wife was a deep hatred in ancient times.
As for the imperial order that Emperor Wanli's new army could not enter Beijing without a holy decree, it would be much bleaker in the face of this kind of great hatred, and if Li Hongyu could even endure this, I am afraid that he would not have to mix in the officialdom in the future.
"Back to the little marquis, because his voice was too small, the little one didn't hear what he said." The guy shook his head helplessly, which made Zhang Quan feel a burst of disappointment.
"Check, you must find out that traitor to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will definitely pick his skin when the time comes!"
After slamming his fist on the table on the side, Zhang Quan shouted angrily at the guy, this is his best chance to get Qin Yue, he didn't expect it to be wasted like this, I'm afraid there will be no such opportunity in the future, the chagrin in his heart can be imagined.
After returning to the Li Mansion, Qin Yue drank a cup of herbal tea in one gulp, the more she thought about it now, the more scared she became, if it wasn't for the man with the hat to give a warning, I am afraid that she would have fallen into the trap of the other party, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
When the excited mood calmed down, a cloud of anger rose in Qin Yue's heart, and asked his subordinates to investigate the matter, wanting to see who wanted to design her, and she must avenge this revenge.
However, an incident in the next life made Qin Yue forget about being calculated, and pay full attention to that matter.
Early the next morning, Yang Lian led dozens of civil officials to kneel outside the noon gate during the Like Zuo incident, asking to meet the prince and discuss the prince's accession to the throne.
Subsequently, Zhang Han, the governor of Guizhou Province, also led dozens of civil officials to kneel on the other side of the noon gate, and asked Zheng Guifei to ask King Fu to succeed to the throne and inherit the unification.
At this time, there were still three days left before the end of the 27-day funeral of Emperor Wanli, and the battle for the throne between the crown prince and King Fu had entered the final decisive stage.
Yang Lian and Zhang Han and other hot moves caused an uproar in the capital and the opposition, which meant that King Fu officially challenged the crown prince's position as prince.
Compared with the civil official group, the nobles in the capital took the lead in reacting, and under Zhang Guang's instructions, they gave Zheng Guifei a soothing, and canonized Zheng Guifei as the only empress with King Fu's talent, diligence in government affairs, and Emperor Wanli's edict, and supported King Fu to inherit the throne.
However, before that, the Xungui Group hoped that the Ministry of Rites would prepare the ceremony for Zheng Guifei to be canonized as the empress, which would be held at the same time as the enthronement ceremony of King Fu after the 27-day mourning period of Emperor Wanli.
In order to urge the Ministry of Rites to act as soon as possible, Zhao Deguang, the right governor of the pro-army capital of the Imperial Palace, ordered his pro-army to surround the yamen of the Ministry of Rites, and no one except the officials of the Ministry of Rites was forbidden to enter or leave, which put the Ministry of Rites under great pressure.
He Zongyan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, hurriedly met with Fang Congzhe and Zhou Jiamo and other leaders of the civil official group to discuss countermeasures, it is obvious that the civil official group does not want Zheng Guifei to become the queen, and does not want King Fu to replace the crown prince in the world, but now that the soldiers are in the city, they have no good way to deal with it, and those who are soldiers are no different from talking about the piano.
Not only that, Zhang Guang also ordered the Jingjun to prohibit people from entering and leaving the mansions of He Zongyan and other important officials of the Ministry of Rites, and it seems that if the people of the Ministry of Rites do not give in, the consequences will be worrying.
After all, changing the dynasty is not a family, and there is no reason to talk about the struggle for the throne, so those who disagree will definitely be cleaned up, and the Yongle Emperor killed those who refused to submit when he ascended the throne is the best example.
In the face of the grim situation in the capital, the civil official group quickly divided, and the civil officials with the Donglin Party as the leader were ready to fight against the water, so they ran to Yang Lian, a member of the Noon Gate.
In order to seek benefits, the officials of the small and medium-sized factions in the court chose to support King Fu one after another, and also went to the noon gate to support King Fu, and the two sides knelt on both sides of the avenue in front of the noon gate on the left and right, glaring at each other angrily.
As for the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang, which occupied important positions in the court, they were more cautious, except for some civil officials in the camp of the three parties who supported King Fu or the crown prince in their personal names, the three parties did not clearly state their attitude.
The reason for this is naturally related to the fact that most of the ministers appointed by the Wanli Emperor to assist the Son of Heaven in the three parties, such as Fang Congzhe and Huang Jiashan, the secretary of the military department, etc., which makes it difficult for the three parties to openly support the crown prince or King Fu.
Now that King Fu is powerful, if the three parties choose to support the prince, then they will inevitably be liquidated by King Fu in the future, and if they support King Fu, then they will undoubtedly be despised by the outside world, and they will be attacked by the Donglin Party.
Therefore, in order to maintain their advantage in the court, the best choice for the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang is to remain silent, and when King Fu ascends the throne, he submits to King Fu for the reason that the country and the society are important.
In fact, when the Xungui group chose to support King Fu, the dispute between the crown prince and King Fu had lost its suspense, and if the civil official group could unite as one, there might be a possibility of a reversal, but now there is a split within the civil official group, so it cannot affect the exhibition of the court at all.
The important person who led to this situation was Zhang Guang's defection to King Fu, Zhang Guang, as one of the three leaders of the Emperor Wanli, was naturally one of the auxiliary ministers designated by the Wanli Emperor, and he originally supported the crown prince like the British Duke, so that King Fu had no chance.
However, with the appearance of Li Hongyu, Zhang Guang changed his support for the crown prince and then threw himself into the camp of King Fu, who was worried that Li Hongyu, who was highly valued by the Wanli Emperor and was also the master of the imperial grandson Zhu Youxiao, would retaliate in the future for almost being killed by Zhang Quan's instructive in Wuchang City.
Therefore, Zhang Guang responded in advance, choosing to support King Fu to seize a higher status and power to deal with Li Hongyu, maybe he could take advantage of the change of dynasty to kill Li Hongyu.
Li Hongyu didn't know that with his appearance, the trend of history had changed, making King Fu, who had no chance, unexpectedly become a popular candidate for the succession to the throne.
Because he was on duty in the Guande Palace, Li Hongyu didn't know about the birth outside the noon gate, and knew that he would go back to his residence to rest in the afternoon, so there were two groups of civil officials kneeling outside the noon gate.
After figuring out the purpose of Yang Lian and Zhang Han's civil officials, Li Hongyu knelt beside Yang Lian after a little contemplation, he has always supported the prince, so he naturally can't back down at this critical moment.
As Li Hongyu knelt down, the civil officials behind Yang Lian suddenly felt a burst of excitement, although Li Hongyu had shallow qualifications in the court, he was the assistant minister of the Wanli Emperor's order and controlled the new army, and was undoubtedly a heavyweight official among the officials who supported the prince's camp.
Seeing this, Zhang Han's brows suddenly wrinkled, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, thinking that Li Hongyu was smart and confused for a while, and now King Fu inherited the throne is the trend of the times, Li Hongyu is tantamount to blocking the car with his mantis arm and acting against the sky, and he will definitely be hit by King Fu.
