Chapter Eighty-Seven: Jiao Fang's Advice

Jiao Fang is an old fox, he doesn't learn and has no skills, and his culture is very superficial, but for so many years, he can still stand tall under the exclusion and suppression of many courtiers, and even rise step by step.

Don't say anything else, just talk about this heart, I'm afraid that if he says that he is the second, no one dares to say the first.

The current situation, he has long been clear at a glance, that is, Yang Tinghe's conspiracy, of course, why Yang Tinghe did this, Jiao Fang is not very clear, he also thought that Yang Tinghe was in order to establish authority and further reduce the emperor's power, so he resorted to such a sinister bad move.

Jiao Fang's heart is happy now, he came to see the driver, but he inquired with the eunuchs in the palace, after the emperor retired from the court, he summoned the six tigers one after another, and the effect of this summoning, no need to ask, at present, it seems that the effect is very obvious, Gao Feng first defected, and has led the inner guards to guard the ministers, and Zhang Yong and Luo Xiang are interrogating Liu Chengwen, investigating and collecting evidence, as for the Gu Dayong, Qiu Ju, and Ma Yongcheng, I heard that when they left the emperor's bedroom, they also had a different color. Obviously, he was also re-encircled and subdued by the emperor.

Hehe, Jiao Fang really didn't expect the little emperor to be so wise and resourceful all of a sudden, it seems that Yang Tinghe really miscalculated this time, doesn't he know a truth? Rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, not to mention that the person you persecute is still the current Ming Emperor? Isn't that self-conscious? Do you think he's really going to let you handle it? Okay now, right? The little emperor sacrificed a set of combination punches, and Yang Tinghe was already powerless.

Punch the master to death, hahaha.

Jiao Fang was so happy, he couldn't help but have a smile on his face, of course, the thing that made him happiest was that he picked up the cheap because of this conflict, and he was actually promoted to the first assistant inexplicably, hehe, Yang Tinghe is completely finished now, Jiao Fang smiled proudly.

"Your Majesty, from the perspective of the old minister, the current situation is actually difficult to say, and it is not difficult to say that it is not difficult," Jiao Fang looked at Zhu Houzhao and said in a slight mutter.

"Oh, what does Jiao Aiqing think? Why don't you tell me about it," Zhu Hou said as he looked at him.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the most important thing about the matter of the Weiyuan County Lord is to calm down as soon as possible. As long as this matter is calmed down and the courtiers no longer mention this matter, naturally it will not have much impact, and the matter will pass. Otherwise, if you blindly go to the bottom of the matter, investigate and collect evidence, it will make this matter bigger and bigger, and it will be unfavorable to the county lord of Weiyuan, and there will be more and more rumors from the outside world, and it will become more and more unbearable, Your Majesty, do you say? Jiao Fang looked at Zhu Houzhao and asked.

Zhu Houzhao thought deeply that even Xiao Yu'er, who was hiding behind the screen, nodded unconsciously and agreed.

"Jiao Aiqing said very much, but I don't know how to calm down this matter, even if I promise not to pursue it, but will the courtiers give up?" Zhu Houzhao asked with some concern.

"Hehe, Your Majesty," Hearing Zhu Houzhao's words, Jiao Fang stroked his beard and smiled: "Your Majesty, you must know that in this world, many things originally depend on what you say. For example, the matter of the county lord of Weiyuan, what do the courtiers say now? They say that it is the enchantress who flatters the country, but they have mouths, and the emperor has a more powerful weapon for communication. Why didn't the emperor send a decree to the world, saying that the reason why His Majesty did not execute the thief girl Liang Xiaoyu was because His Majesty was lenient and benevolent first, and did not want to kill the young girl to hurt the heavens and peace, and at the same time treated Liang Xiaoyu very favorably, in fact, it was to influence the thief's heart, so that the rebellion could be quelled without using swords. Sun Tzu's art of war is cloudy, and the soldiers who surrender without a fight are superior. Your Majesty's move is a way to worry about the country and the people, but Yang Tinghe and others misinterpreted the holy will, wantonly talked nonsense, and disrupted the government, so that rumors spread, and now Yang Tinghe and others will be demoted by half a level to show punishment. ”

Jiao Fang said this, paused, and continued: "At the same time, Your Majesty can also send a decree to the county lord of Weiyuan to go to Ulzhou to persuade the rebel army to surrender, so that it can also reflect Your Majesty's far-reaching intentions. ”

Jiao Fang's words made Zhu Houzhao's eyes light up, and he felt that this was really a good way, and he was overjoyed at the moment, and agreed with Jiao Fang's idea, but he also had a worry, that is, to send Xiao Yu'er to persuade Liang Hong, although he knew that this was a good practice, but he didn't want Xiao Yu'er to leave him, so he was still a little worried.

However, in any case, Jiao Fang gave a way to solve the problem, so at that moment, Zhu Houzhao immediately sent Gao Feng over, and then asked Jiao Fang and Gao Feng to go together to draft a message and deal with the chaos in front of him, while he himself returned to the studio with Xiao Yu'er.

Xiao Yu'er is very happy now, and she also hopes that she can go to Ulju to persuade Abba, because in this way, she will be able to meet Abba, and maybe she can sneak back to Abba's side when the time comes.

Therefore, when Zhu Houzhao discussed this matter with her, she agreed immediately.

Xiao Yu'er's reaction made Zhu Houzhao helpless for a while, and unconsciously looked at Xiao Yu'er and said, "Actually, you really want to go back, right?" ”

Xiao Yu'er snorted coldly and didn't speak, which made Zhu Houzhao a little angry, he couldn't help frowning, picked up the teacup and poured it, then looked at Xiao Yu'er and said, "I hope you can really do something for me this time, so that you can persuade your father to surrender." You can tell him that as long as he is willing to surrender, I will not treat him badly, and then we will all be happy when we are all together. In that case, I won't have to make so much effort to see you in the future, and no one will dare to say anything. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yu'er smiled, looked at him and said, "What if Abba is unwilling to surrender?" ”

"I've already done my part, if he still dares to be obsessed, it's no wonder I," Zhu Houzhao looked at Xiao Yu'er and then said a little helplessly: "Xiao Yu'er, you are still young, you may not understand these things." Compared with my private affairs, after all, it is more important to the next day. I can tolerate these courtiers to oppress me, but I will never allow anyone to provoke the Ming regime and try to subvert the world, do you understand? ”

"I'm a child, what's there that I don't understand?" Xiao Yu'er said disdainfully.

"Do you know that your father has done great things now, he is entrenched in the mountains outside Ulzhou City, subduing the bandits, summoning Luo Wulin strongmen, recruiting troops and horses, and now he has gathered thousands of people, as if he has become a big tail, I am giving him one last chance to repent, I really don't want to meet him with swords, can you understand my intentions?" Zhu Hou looked at Xiao Yu'er and said.

"Okay, I'll do my best, but I don't know what Abba thinks or does, and if it doesn't work, don't blame me," Xiao Yu'er said.

"Okay, but, whether you succeed or not, you have to give me a good return," Zhu Houzhao said.

Hearing this, Xiao Yu'er smiled and didn't speak. Zhu Houzhao knew what she was thinking, and couldn't help but say to Xiao Yu'er at the moment: "On this trip, I will send Luo Xiang to lead the inner guards to protect you." ”

"If I run away halfway and don't return, what will you do?" How could Xiao Yu'er not understand Zhu Houzhao's intentions, and couldn't help but ask in a deep voice at the moment.

"In short, don't force me!" Zhu Houzhao was also out of the way, and couldn't help but say coldly at the moment.

……

Unlike the fierce dialogue in the harem, there was silence in the Jinluan Hall at this time.

The emperor had several wills coming out one after another, and Gao Feng was a little dry when he read it.

The first decree appointed Jiao Fang as the first assistant of the cabinet.

The second holy decree appointed the county lord of Weiyuan as the heavenly grace and sent him to Ulju to recruit rebel thieves.

The third holy decree is to show the world, I am a merciful king, and I wanted to give preferential treatment to thieves and girls, so as to influence the thief's heart, but Yang Tinghe and others misinterpreted the holy will, spread rumors, demagoguery, and even forced the palace to ask for guilt, and made a big mistake in the way of ministers, and Yang Tinghe and others were all demoted by half a grade and fined for one year as punishment.

The fourth holy decree, Liu Chengwen, the imperial historian, did not think of serving the country with loyalty, listened to the demagogy of Yang Tinghe and others, and above the court meeting, forced the palace to ask for guilt, disobeyed the saint, was very rude, and was demoted to the common people, and was assigned to Qinghai to shepherd sheep, and he was never allowed to return to the court!

A series of holy decrees, a series of arrangements, and a set of combination punches made Yang Ting and the whole person stunned, and he didn't know what was going on. Why, why is this little emperor suddenly so hard? Why is his mind so thoughtful?

For a while, the ministers were in an uproar, and everyone looked at Jiao Fang, who was high up and full of smugness, and naturally attributed all the blame to him.

Yes, it was this old fox who betrayed us, and it was his ploy to offer to the emperor!

That's right, otherwise why did he suddenly become the head of the cabinet, hey, everyone has fallen for this old thief's tricks!

However, even if they were dissatisfied, even if they were angry, those courtiers did not have the slightest solution, after all, now that the dominant power was in the hands of others, no matter how much they resisted, it was useless. What's more, the emperor has already asked that Liang Xiaoyu to go to the front of the battle to recruit the thief army, which directly blocked the mouths of the ministers, people did not stay by the emperor's side, and even had to contribute to the country, how can you say that people are enchanting and flattering?

In desperation, the atmosphere of hatred and hatred that had just been established by the ministers collapsed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, why don't you disperse first? In the cabinet tomorrow, the old man is very important, and the adults should not be late-"

After Jiao Fang finished speaking, he walked away triumphantly, leaving only a group of courtiers kneeling there helplessly.

Things seem to have subsided like this, and in this game, the little emperor Zhu Houzhao fought back, rushed to the crown and became angry, and won a complete victory.

It was getting late, the palace lights were lit, Zhu Houzhao was babbling and telling Xiao Yu'er to be careful of catching a cold on the road, to wear more clothes, and at the same time to help Xiao Yu'er pack up and sort out the package.

Zhu Houzhao reluctantly went out to meet him, but as soon as he heard the report of the two, Zhu Houzhao's eyelids jumped unconsciously, and he couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "Are you two serious?" Is this matter really related to Cining Palace? ”

"Your Majesty, as the head of the inner house, how can you not know about the affairs in this palace?" Luo Xiang arched his hand and said: "When Admiral Zhang interrogated Liu Chengwen before, the servants had already secretly launched an investigation in the palace, but after a check, they found out that the whole thing was really because Her Majesty was angry that Her Majesty loved the county lord of Weiyuan too much, so he slandered the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother was also a little worried about this matter, so she sent Gonggong Li to deliver a message to Yang Tinghe. ”

"Okay, okay, hahaha-" Zhu Houzhao laughed angrily, slammed the table and stood up, and then said fiercely: "I still think that Yang Ting and these people are going on, it turns out that there is something wrong with me in this harem, okay, okay, queen, hahaha, queen, she is also smart, come, pass the decree, and the queen will sleep tonight!" ”
