Chapter 481 The Origin in the Mist

The time has entered the early afternoon, although the hundred officials outside the noon gate are hungry, but they are not deserters, while waiting for the news, they gather in twos and threes to chat. Since the southern tour of the Son of Heaven, there has been no great court meeting for several months, and it is rare to have such a gathering moment today.

Only Peng Ge Lao didn't say a word, and his eyes were always on Li You who was not far away. Temple politics is often like a fog, and only those who can clear the fog and see the origin are the winners, and he believes that today he is the one who can clear the fog.

Peng Ge dared to pat his chest and say that among the people present, no one knew Li You better than him, and no one could see Li You more thoroughly than him.

No matter what kind of person Li You is in the eyes of others, he knows that Li You is definitely not a courtier who would rather lose everything he has to maintain the court, and he is definitely not a courtier who will advise the king at the expense of his own safety.

Since he is not such a person, but he has done such a thing, it can only show one point, in order to protect the whole family, Li You must have something to fear. Li You deceived the people of the world, and he couldn't fool him!

Even Scholar Peng, who is familiar with the scriptures and righteousness, does not dare to say that he can achieve "Confucius said to be benevolent and Meng said to take righteousness", so how can Li You do it?

Before, Peng Ge Lao had always wondered where Li You's battle was. Everyone else was thinking about how to end this impasse today, or how to deal with the Empress Dowager Cisheng, but he devoted a large part of his energy to studying Li You's intentions, and kept thinking left and right in his heart.

When Peng Ge Lao saw the eldest princess of Guide appear, and then thought about his malicious speculation about Li You, he suddenly realized.

Things that seem obscure often find it so simple once you figure it out, it turns out that Li You and the eldest princess of Guide have joined forces... Fang Cai didn't think about it in this regard.

No wonder Li You, who has always been good at calculation, behaved so relentlessly, so desperately, under the banner of the righteousness of the court, pressed the Empress Dowager Qian step by step, and completely did everything, which really had its purpose. This on the one hand raised his own prestige, and on the other hand, created a stalemate and created an opportunity for the eldest princess to appear.

At this time, the officials were helpless. I couldn't even see the face of the queen mother, so I could only scratch my boots outside the palace gate, and the eldest princess of Guide made a shining appearance. Looking at Jingshi, she is the only one who can mediate the fierce conflict between the empress dowager and the courtiers, and others can't even enter the Cisheng Palace.

These calculations must have been planned by Li You and the eldest princess in advance. With the support and cover of the eldest princess, Li You, who was extremely fierce and sharp, was mostly unharmed, and at most suffered some painless punishments.

As for the purpose of the eldest princess. Peng Ge Lao vaguely guessed a few points. Since the marriage of the Son of Heaven, she moved out of the palace, and she has been low-key and silent for a long time. It's just taking this opportunity to show herself, and I heard that the eldest princess is preparing for a young mansion.

The more Peng Ge thought about it, the more he remembered it. The eldest princess is very supportive of Yuan Lide, a scholar of Wenhua Palace, and this time the vacant secondary auxiliary position...

For Yuan Lide, Peng Chunshi looked down on him in his heart, he was just an incompetent person who relied on Fengyingjun to make a profit, how could he compare to his own hard work and achievement, and he was the first in the cabinet? Although the surname Yuan is ranked in front of him, he is the one who almost won the position of first assistant, if it weren't for Li You to make trouble, Xu Yue's position should be his now.

Another inner prison escaped from the palace. The decree was loudly announced: "Our Lady of the Imperial Martial Arts Temple! Summoning all the masters and the five grades or more to meet you! ”

This is also a small phased achievement, and it seems that the eldest princess has played a role. A soft cheer rang out from the crowd, waking Elder Peng Ge from his contemplation.

Among these officials outside the noon gate, they are basically mainly Kedao, mixed with a number of middle-level officials from various ministries, otherwise Li You would not be able to be the leader with only five products. Later, four more scholars came to the rescue, and the other Jiuqing and other bigwigs had a tacit understanding. Not a single one came. …,

According to the limited circumstances of the summons, among the people present, only officials above the fifth rank and the imperial history of the masters can enter the palace, probably the Langzhong of each department, the bachelors and Li You of the various masters, the number of about twenty.

They all know it. The more people the better, so the louder; When compromises, the fewer people the better. People are too talkative, but they are prone to disputes.

The officers and soldiers of the gate were released, and the officials had to be summoned to enter. It's just that the inner eunuch and the brocade guard who left the palace with the treasure seal still stood motionless outside the palace, they didn't get the order to retreat, and they still continued to confront the remaining seventy or so imperial historians, outsiders, and principals. If the two sides do not negotiate properly in the Wuying Palace, the confrontation here will continue.

The dwarf Liba general, the five-grade Qingliu Lixian Li You ranked after the university scholar and before the Liubu Langzhong, entered the palace proudly, and then went west through the Huiji Gate and arrived at the Wuying Palace. Strictly speaking, this is not a court meeting, it can only be regarded as a temporary meeting.

In the Wuying Palace, a golden screen was added to the side of the throne at some point. However, everyone knows that behind this screen must be a temporary addition to the position of the eldest princess of Guide. Today, it is indeed a shame that the eldest princess has come forward to deal with it, otherwise it is still deadlocked outside the noon gate now.

Twenty people stood in the Wuying Palace, looking a little empty. After a while, the figure behind the bead curtain swayed, and the Empress Dowager Cisheng ascended.

After saluting, Xu Shoufu and Peng Ge Lao glanced at each other, and Peng Ge Lao stepped forward to speak. Now among the four scholars, Xu Yue is the first assistant, Peng Chunshi has the most seniority, Yang Ge Lao and Jin Ge Lao are both newcomers in the past two or three years, and their right to speak is much worse than the first two.

"Our Lady and the ministers are discussing matters, I haven't heard of a princess participating in the pre-meeting, and the ministers are invited to return to the German Chitose to avoid it!" As soon as Peng Ge Lao spoke, he surprised everyone's expectations, and first mentioned the eldest princess of Guide.

Li You was not far from Peng Ge Lao, he was taken aback when he heard this, and suddenly looked sideways at Peng Ge Lao.

And Peng Ge Lao glanced at Li You out of the corner of his eye, and understood Li You's expression - the matter of the eldest princess of Guide has nothing to do with you Peng Chunshi, do you have more pain in your idle eggs?

I don't know why, a wave of pleasure after revenge surged into Peng Ge's old heart, Li You's idle egg hurt and hurt him less? The old man will do a big deal to him today, and see who else will cover for him today.

Logically, Peng Ge Lao said well, the monarchs and ministers of the dynasty have never participated in the deliberations of the princess.

Although Guide Chitose often appears in the Wenhua Palace, it is a banquet for the Son of Heaven to read and lecture, not a court and political matter, she just comes to supervise the Son of Heaven's classes.

But today, her appearance on the occasion of the meeting of the monarchs and ministers of the Wuying Palace is an unreasonable move, but no one thought about it just now, and acquiesced that this is a special time.

Since Peng Ge's husband mentioned it, he can't pretend to be confused, and there must be a clear explanation.

Everyone really didn't have any reason to speak for the eldest princess of Guide. Li You also had some scruples, and did not dare to openly keep the eldest princess to participate in politics in the palace.

The hall was silent for a long time, and the voice of the eldest princess of Guide came from behind the golden screen, "In that case, don't pass the queen mother and the princess!" ”

Immediately, after the golden screen heard the sound of Suosuo, the silence was restored, and it should be that the eldest princess had already gone out.

People are not like Peng Gelao, who tirelessly speculates on Li You with conspiracy theories. and saw through the connection between Li You and the eldest princess. I just feel that Peng Ge Lao is making a bit of a fuss at this critical moment. But since Guide Chitose has already taken the initiative to leave, there is nothing to say.

Now it's time to get down to business... I have to say that the atmosphere in the temple is very subtle.

Plainly. Everyone enters this hall, just like two top masters who have each made a big move at the bottom of the box, and they still can't do anything about each other. When the deal came when the negotiations had to be compromised, the government temporarily collapsed if the negotiations could not be reached. …,

At least the palace is full of five-grade officials and senior imperial historians, and there is no novice who has just entered the officialdom, so they all know this.

The subtle embarrassment lies in the fact that one moment is still shouting benevolence, righteousness, morality, and heavenly principles, and the next moment they start bargaining as if they are buying and selling, which makes everyone always a little embarrassed. Fortunately, the officials who can stand here have a good ability to adjust their psychology and quickly adapt to it.

The first thing to talk about is to take back the treasure seal as soon as possible. Put it where it should be. It's too inappropriate for this thing to be shelved outside the palace all the time, and if something goes wrong, all of them will be responsible. The issue of the Queen Mother's withdrawal of the Holy Decree can be discussed slowly after a little later.

It was Peng Ge Lao who gave full play to the role of the leader of the scholars, and took the lead in talking, "Li Baixian said in vain that the treasure seal of the Son of Heaven caused the treasure seal to leave the palace." If you have lost the way of the ministers, please deal with it severely! The rest of the palace ministers can be punished as punishments! ”

Everyone in the palace was silent about this, Empress Dowager Qian's attitude was so tough, and she wanted to solve the problem of the treasure seal that could not be bypassed. If you don't sacrifice Li You, he will be glorious.

This is the price of "leading big brother"! In gaining great fame and prestige that is famous all over the world. Often, they also have to bear the glory of being demoted. In the national dynasty, in large-scale counseling incidents, it seems to be an unspoken rule that the most radical leaders are disposed of.

That's right, being demoted after bluntly admonishing the monarch is the same as the court staff, which is both a punishment and a lifelong honor, and other officials also pay tribute to it, and the psychology of the Ming officialdom is so weird.

Traced to the source, it is probably that the officials of the year were unable to rescue their colleagues under certain circumstances, and they were reluctant to share weal and woe, advance and retreat together, so they gradually put a halo of glory on the colleagues who were demoted by the court staff to praise, in order to eliminate the guilt after the contradiction between ideals and reality, or self-hypnosis.

The greater the movement, the greater the punishment. In the eighth year of Jinghe, Li You's derogation was very light, and it was only pediatric. According to this movement, and the degree of anger against the Holy Lord, how can he be demoted to a certain post in Yunnan or Guizhou, and if you are lucky, you can have a master book.

Peng Ge Lao squinted at Li You, he knew very well that although this guy sought fame, he valued real interests more.

He also knew that relegating Li You to a desolate place, even if he could live with the halo of glory, would be a great pain for Li You. Of course, it was refreshing and quiet for him.

Peng Ge Lao sneered in his heart, and wanted to unite with the eldest princess of Guide to cover for you? Want to get a name without paying the price? There are no doors!

Now, he's got the perfect opportunity. Your Li You's big backer Ding Ding is worried about going to work, and you dare to act as the leader of the big advice without doing your best, I really don't know how to write the dead word, really when these enemies are eating dry rice and staring dry?

After thinking about it, the others seemed to have no solution except for the launch of Li You, which was actually the trend of the times. They all set their eyes on Li You, but when they saw Li Youxian's calm expression, he was like a pine and cypress, and he couldn't help but sigh helplessly, so let Master Li ask for mercy!

At this time, after hearing the bead curtain, Empress Dowager Qian began to speak fiercely, "This time, you are rude to force the palace, and the treasure seal is displaced, although it is done by Kedao, the root cause is in the cabinet and the secretaries!" If it weren't for the connivance of the ministers, what would be the disaster of today? ”

"Saying that Li You is guilty, then who used the court to connive at Li You? On August 25, when the court discussed Li You's fault for beating people, who had no objection at all? ”

"The six sections of the cabinet have turned a deaf ear to the mourning family, and have repeatedly resisted indiscriminately, is this the way of the minister? Your and other important ministers all have protégés and classmates in the same year, so is there less to quote and use each other? A few people in the mourning family can't use it, who is in charge of this Daming! ”…,

Peng Ge Lao saw that the Empress Dowager Cisheng used the topic to play more and more excited, and if it went on like this, there was no way to talk about the conditions. Taking advantage of her pause, she persuaded: "Our Lady is angry! The ministers do not respect the law of the ancestors, and they do not mean to be slow. Occasional negligence..."

Peng Ge was only halfway through his old words, when he heard Empress Dowager Qian shouting: "How can Mr. Peng be at fault!" ”

Everyone saw that the bead curtain was shaking, the throne was already empty, and the Empress Dowager Qian left again.

Peng Ge Lao was dumbfounded, he didn't say anything excessive, and his tone was very gentle, where did he anger the Queen Mother?

He was reflecting and checking his speech, when suddenly the figure in front of him flickered, Li You walked up to him and scolded him: "Old Peng Ge! What do you want to do when you are angry with our Virgin? Could it be that the dynasty is falling apart and the country has no owner, so it is convenient for you to monopolize the power in the cabinet! ”

Peng Ge Lao said with an angry face: "The children are going to spew blood!" Get out of the way! ”

In the face of the elder pavilion's majesty, Li You did not show weakness at all, and his words were even more aggressive, "I didn't see you before, Peng Gelao was impassioned, and he knocked together with us, at this time, the Holy Mother had the intention of knowing the mistake, and when the monarch and the minister were about to reconcile, you were like a jumping beam, and bad things were everywhere!" First of all, I drove away His Highness Chitose, who had made good in mediation, and then provoked away the Holy Mother who was willing to summon us! This official really doesn't know what your intentions are, and I dare to ask you how to explain to the princes in the palace! ”

When everyone heard this, they looked at Peng Ge Lao's gaze with a layer of doubt.

"You..." Old Peng Ge's eloquence was much worse than Li You's, and he didn't know where to defend for a while. At this juncture, he was provoked by Li You, and suddenly he was truly blessed to his soul, enlightened, and enlightened!

A strong thought suddenly appeared in Peng Ge Lao's heart, he was reluctant to pursue the truth, and he exhausted his thoughts about Li You, and at this moment he finally explored the essence in the fog.

The person who joined forces with Li You was not the eldest princess of Guide, but the queen mother herself! In this big discussion incident, Li You and the Queen Mother made a show for the world to see!

Only in this way can everything be explained! Bring the cute girl
