Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Choice (Part II)
Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Choice (Part II)
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Hama looked around vigilantly, and the heat in his heart quickly cooled.
The eldest son of the eldest son of Tuhuan Timur and Empress Qi, because the son of the eldest queen Boyan Hudu, Zhenjin, died early, and his mother had shared weal and woe with his father, so he was very favored, and was officially established as the prince in the thirteenth year of Zhizheng, and the edict was issued to the world.
In the past two years, Timur has become increasingly obsessed with practicing the secret method of "acting as a butterfly", and he cannot spare enough time to deal with government affairs. The prince loves Youyou, and Litra is right, and he begins to share his father's worries. Not only in the Zhongshu Province, the Imperial Historical Tower, and the Privy Council, but they all wantonly installed their own lineage auxiliaries, and they had to send important memoranda to Emperor Dayuan for personal approval, and they also asked to hand it over to themselves first, and under the opinion of the prime minister, after supplementing their own opinions, they were allowed to be sent to the palace.
A person who has just turned 16 years old, even if he is a genius, has very limited knowledge and political level. Therefore, many of the instructions of the crown prince Aiyu Zhilitra are actually used by several auxiliary ministers of the Eastern Palace to catch the knife on their behalf. And those auxiliary ministers are actually very average in ability, so many times their opinions are only limited to highlighting the prince's sense of existence, and other aspects are not worth mentioning.
But Tuhuan Timur didn't see it that way, he lost his father when he was a child, and after he ascended the throne, because he had no experience and personal team, he was subject to the power of the ministers for a long time. Therefore, he always wants to prevent his son from suffering the same. As for the behavior of the crown prince Aiyu Zhilitra wantonly planting private individuals and indiscriminately interfering in the government affairs, not only did he not want to stop it, but he acquiesced and even encouraged it. In case one day he was summoned by the Buddha, the prince was inexperienced or the team was not thick enough, causing the imperial power to fall into the hands of traitors again.
is so trusted by his father, it stands to reason that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should be content. But in fact, it doesn't seem to be the case. This golden family leader, who has just turned 16 years old, actually happened to "inspect" the Ordnance Bureau today, and confidently waited for the prime minister of the dynasty to go to guide him.
Hama is not a brilliant person, but he is not stupid. Therefore, when I heard Guo Shu's prompt, my heart was alert. And the six-fingered ambassador Guo Shu obviously had already guessed his reaction, smiled, and lowered his voice, "The situation is so rotten, and those who have aspirations are heartbroken. However, Brother Nasang jumped out of Meng Lang and tried in vain to cleanse the world with an edict. The prince knew that he would not be able to succeed, but he was patient with filial piety and was powerless to stop it in person. So I want to ask the prime minister a good strategy, how can I expel such villains from the court? lest he continue to bewitch the Holy Monarch! ”
As he spoke, his two little eyes kept spinning. It's like two dice, circling and tumbling in the betting cup.
Prime Minister Hama's eyes are as stable as usual. Deep down, he also began to think quickly. If he joins forces with the crown prince Aiyu Zhilitra to defeat the father and son of the Wang family, the chances of regaining the situation may be doubled. But after regaining the situation, will he still win the next duel between Aiyu Zhilitra and Tuhuan Timur's father and son? At present, Timur was full of love for his son, and he was relieved to give him a lot of power to take care of it. That's because he was sure that he could take those powers back at any time. If it is found that Aiyu Zhilitra is trying to overthrow him, or let him become the emperor, I am afraid that the so-called filial piety of the father and son will immediately become two bloody steel knives.
As the nurse brother of Tuhuan Timur, Hama is well aware of the infighting skills of the nurse brother in the palace. From the power minister Boyan, the queen mother Bu Da Li, and then to another power minister, everyone who once despised Tuhuan Timur finally died without a place to be buried. And the rest of the small fish and shrimp that have been crushed into powder, there are countless of them. This is also an important reason why he clearly noticed that Tuhuan Timur had begun to deal with him, but he could not have any sense of resistance. The strength of the two sides is not on the same line at all, since no matter how much you resist, you can't win, so it's better to find an opportunity to run away categorically.
But these thoughts and plans, Hama couldn't tell Guo Shu clearly, let alone tell the prince directly. After many years of ups and downs, he clearly knows what it means to "turn over the clouds and rain". If he dares to refuse the prince's wooing on the grounds of "no chance of winning". I'm afraid that tonight, Guo Nu will walk into the Wang Family's slave mansion, form an alliance with the other party on behalf of the crown prince, and work together to push himself into the abyss.
"I don't know anything about the way of making weapons!" After quickly weighing it repeatedly in a very short period of time, Dayuan Right Minister Ha Ma made a choice with a smiling face, "Therefore, Ambassador Guo still directly reported this matter to His Majesty, and His Majesty decided whether to make a big deal or not." As for the crown prince's side, His Majesty once appointed Li Haowen to tutor, and the bald Timur taught the bow and horse strategy. Although he is the prime minister of Dayuan, it is inconvenient to act on his behalf! ”
"This?" This time, it was Guo Fu's turn to be stupid, and the two little eyes turned more and more rapidly. Before leaving, he had a long discussion with the crown prince Aiyu Zhilitra, and they all thought that now when Hama was tired of parrying, he would never refuse a strong help from the East Palace. Unexpectedly, Hama is so ignorant of current affairs, he would rather be trampled on by Wang Jianu's father and son than risk forming an alliance with the East Palace.
"Actually, there is another person, the prince should ask her for advice!" Seeing Guo Shu's shocked face, a faint sense of revenge swelled up in Hama's heart. As the saying goes, if there is a father, there must be a son, and you are happy that Timur is cold by nature, and he is like a thief to prevent the power from becoming bigger and threatening your throne. But you never imagined that it was your own son who really tried to pull you off the throne. He's the same as you, and his eyes are on nothing but the throne. Even if his father blocks the way, he has to swing a knife to cut it.
No matter which father and son followed, Hama didn't think he would end well. Therefore, he simply chose to take a step back and watch the play. As for how to avoid the prince's retaliation, he had already thought about it. The cannibalism of father and son is not enough, according to his years of experience in watching dramas, it is best to add a husband and wife to turn against each other, and the pathos on the stage will win the thunderous applause from the audience.
"As the saying goes, a son is better than a mother! And the beloved son is no better than his mother. The queen of my Great Yuan is not as good as the Great Song Dynasty, and the edict does not leave the harem. The queen of my Dayuan can appoint officials and participate in court politics, and in the hands of the queen of Qi, there are capable people. If the prince is confused, why don't you ask her for advice. Even a few words are better than an outsider's nonsense! ”
said something that made Guo angry and stunned. Dayuan Prime Minister Hama refused to give the other party too much time to think, shook the reins, and rode away. It wasn't until the sound of horses' hooves almost disappeared from the end of the street that the six-fingered Guo Shu barely came to his senses, looked at the smoke and dust in the distance and muttered: "The old fox, he even dares to provoke other husbands and wives to rebel against him, it's really cunning." However, "
Suddenly, he smiled dumbly, "It's worth a try!" If the queen can help, the prince will definitely win! ”
After laughing, he no longer entangled with Hama. Turning his mount, he went straight back to the Ordnance Bureau, where he paid homage to the prince Aiyu Zhiritra, who had been waiting for him there. And the latter, although young, is decisive. After listening to the report, he immediately commanded in a low voice: "This hama can actually give such a bad idea to Lone." Although this plan is very feasible, it cheapens him for nothing. How easy is it to be alone? Six fingers, you immediately send someone to chase after Sango Lost, and give him a sword and three jars of liquor for me, so as to be strong! ”
