Chapter 112, the power of Wanhua Palace
He only had his fiftieth birthday a few years ago, but Tu Yun's sideburns were already slightly white. However, everyone knows that Tu Yun did not suffer from premature aging due to state affairs, but premature aging due to excessive indulgence.
After all, in terms of the national policy of North Vietnam to support the country by war, there are really not too many state affairs that the emperor of North Vietnam, Tu Yun, needs to worry about. When he had a lot of time, Tu Yun naturally put all his energy into finding joy and hunting beauty. It not only includes the concubines and palace maids in the palace, but also includes the wives and daughters of some princes and ministers in the capital.
However, although Tu Yun has been working hard, he has not had a son so far. Under the chain reaction, Tu Yun naturally became harder.
But today is different, unexpectedly, Tu Yun came to the east study, picked up a piece of music and looked at it on the table, frowning deeply.
Seeing that an hour had passed, the chief eunuch Hao Gonggong whisked the dust, turned sideways to the bookcase and said, "Your Majesty, it's been an hour, let's rest!" ”
"It's been an hour? It's a waste of my time. ”
casually threw the fold to the side, Tu Yun leaned back on the dragon chair and looked up and said, "Father-in-law Hao, what do you say is going on with this Yi Ying?" Why write such a note. Does he have bad intentions, or does he mean something else......"
Falling to the ground along the bookcase, judging from the content of the fold that had been spread out, it was obviously a copy of Yi Ying's tax-free field fold.
"So what else? Of course, it is ill-intentioned. Finally waited for Tu Yun to ask himself, and while picking up the fold, Father-in-law Hao said with a face full of resentment.
Unlike ordinary emperors, although Tu Yun is pampered, due to his body and bloodline, the whole person looks dry and thin, black and small. It's not a pair of eyes that are bright and dark, and it's really hard for ordinary people to be in awe of Tu Yun's imperial majesty.
Gonggong Hao was the head of the prince's mansion who was promoted with Tu Yun, and he has always been favored by Tu Yun. Compared with Tu Yun, Father-in-law Hao, like all eunuchs, is a white-faced and beardless obedient look.
Suddenly, hearing Hao Gong speak openly, Tu Yun lowered his head in astonishment and said, "What? Ill-intentioned? Didn't you still admire Yizhi County's "Three Character Classic" the day before yesterday? ”
"The "Three Character Classic" is the "Three Character Classic", but this Yizhi County actually instigated others to rebel for personal gain, isn't this just the four characters with bad intentions?"
"Instigating a rebellion? What's going on? ”
For any emperor, the most wary thing is the word "rebellion". Although when he saw Yi Huan's tax-free field fold for the first time, Tu Yun felt that the content in it was very dangerous, but after knowing that the duty-free field fold appeared at the same time as the "Three Character Classic", Tu Yun was confused again.
As an emperor, Tu Yun is inevitably suspicious and suspicious.
Although ordinary officials always think a lot when they know that the tax-free field is published at the same time as the "Three Character Classic". But compared with the danger hidden in the tax-free field, Tu Yun still felt that the latter had a greater impact on his throne. Therefore, as soon as he heard that Gonggong Hao said that Yi Ying had instigated others to rebel, Tu Yun immediately became angry.
Of course, Gonggong Hao would not hide it for Yi Huan, and directly told Yi Ying about instigating Yuzhou to rebel from Jiao Xuan, the captain of the school.
However, when Hao's father-in-law's voice fell, Tu Yun did not speak out angrily as usual, but suddenly began to doubt: "Yuzhou Cong Lieutenant? How could he have thought of instigating Yuzhou to rebel from Captain Yuzhou? Is it ......?"
"Your Majesty, he is just a small Shenzhou magistrate, and he may not be able to see that Yu Rong has an antipathy before he wants to test him! It is likely that he had this idea in mind, which is why he wrote such a note. ”
"For the sake of the country, His Majesty has to make a decision as soon as possible......"
Seeing Father-in-law Hao's excited face, Tu Yun was even more suspicious: "Why are you so anxious about this matter, are you ......?"
"Your Majesty, this is not a slave in a hurry, this is a slave in a hurry for Your Majesty!"
didn't expect that he would become the object of Tu Yun's suspicion, and Hao Gonggong suddenly realized that he had underestimated Tu Yun's vigilance against Yu Rong and other ministers. Because Yi Huan may just instigate Jiao Xuan to rebel, but this is not as good as Yu Rong's early rebellion, not to mention that Jiao Xuan was a general under Yu Rong.
Tu Yun shook his head and said, "I don't doubt you, but I really don't understand what this Yi Ying wants to do when he writes tax-free fields?" Now not only those ministers of the DPRK and China, but even the relatives of the emperor and the state also want to get a piece of the pie from this tax-free field. Even if I don't think it's right, do you still want me to fight against the world on my own? ”
"Slaves don't dare! Majesty should be cherished! ”
Kneeling on the ground with a frightened face, Gonggong Hao hated Yi Huan to death in his heart, and also hated Song Tiande to death.
Because it wasn't Song Tiande who added fuel to the fire, those imperial relatives should have stood by Tu Yun's side to oppose the tax-free fields. But with Song Tiande's slight changes to the tax-free fields, not only those officials, but even the emperor's relatives can also add more tax-free fields.
In this way, in response to Tu Yun's words, not to mention the whole world, at least in the territory of North Vietnam, I am afraid that only Tu Yun will oppose the duty-free field.
If there are still people who jump out to oppose the tax-free fields, it is not a Qing official who is so clear that there is no fish and is so stupid that he can't be more stupid, he must be a real person with evil intentions.
Shaking his head, Tu Yun said: "That's it, that's it, you can't do anything about it." You go down and give an order, and someone will immediately set up Wanhua Palace for me. ”
"Swing Wanhua Palace? Isn't this fueling the power of Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess? Father-in-law Hao said with a shocked face.
"Hmph, I am now going to increase the power of Wanhua Palace."
Tu Yun said with slight contempt: "After you become the power of Wanhua Palace, can Sister Lian really get any benefits from it?" At most, she can win the name of a heroine among women in history. But after Sister Lian now took Song Tiande away with the help of tax-free fields, then Yuwang really stole chickens and rice. ”
"Your Majesty is wise! The slave maid went to arrange Luan for His Majesty. ”
After carefully analyzing the form in the palace, Gonggong Hao nodded abruptly and retreated.
Since Tu Yun has been childless, and even rumored by a palace doctor that he may be childless for the rest of his life, the princes who have the right to inherit the throne in the entire royal family have all moved. Walking in front of all the princes, one is Yuwang Tuhao, who has lived in the capital for a long time, and the other is Tulang, the king of Jun, who is far away in Qinzhou Mansion.
Although King Tulang of Jun has a heavy army and is stronger, because he is located in the south and north with the capital, if he really wants to compete for the throne, he will inevitably cross the border of the entire North Yue country, and it is not difficult to guard against it.
And Yuwang Tuhao has lived at the feet of the Son of Heaven for a long time, although he has no soldiers in his hands, he is used to recruiting ministers from all walks of life, and he has always been Tu Yun's confidant.
Unexpectedly, he was just worried about the evil intentions hidden by the tax-free Tian Song, but Tu Yun was already thinking about using the tax-free Tian Songzhi to weaken the strength of Yuwang Tuhao. In admiration, Grandpa Hao was a little worried. Not only worried about Tu Yun, but also worried about Yuwang Tu Hao.
