Chapter 328: The Little Fox and the Old Fox [1 Update]
Cao Shaoqin, who was originally excited, suddenly couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, his face showed a little shock, and he exclaimed: "The British Mansion? ”
It's no wonder that Cao Shaoqin is so frightened, what kind of status the British Duke has in the Ming Dynasty, it can be said that he is resting with the country, but he is the head of the Ming Dynasty, several generations of British Princes, which one is not even courteous to the Son of Heaven when he sees it.
It can be said that unless the British government rebelled, and there must be real evidence, it is impossible for either the royal family or the nobles to agree to move the British government.
The British public lineage has a transcendent position above the Ming Dynasty, even if it is a strong eunuch, such as Wang Zhen and Liu Jin, it is also a retreat to the British government, and if you can, you will not provoke.
Now that Chu Yi wants to say that he is going to the British Mansion, how can he not surprise Cao Shaoqin.
glanced at Cao Shaoqin lightly, Chu Yi let out a shout in his mouth, and the horse under him immediately ran up, and Cao Shaoqin, who reacted, couldn't help but shout at the Dongchang fan behind him: "What are you doing in a daze, don't follow me quickly!" ”
Cao Shaoqin gritted his teeth, he doesn't care if he is a British duke or not, anyway, he is Chu Yi's henchman, don't say that he is dealing with the British duke, even if Chu Yi wants him to deal with the Son of Heaven, he Cao Shaoqin can't control it so much.
Dongchang people, Jinyi Wei, except for some people who stayed to guard the Jiang Mansion and waited for the will of the family, everyone else followed Chu Yi.
The people around them looked shocked one by one, and soon they were as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.
"Oh my God, Chu Du is mainly going to do something to the British Mansion!"
"That's the British Mansion that rests with the country, how dare he ......?"
The scholars who were mixed in the crowd showed surprise and said: "Hahaha, Chu Yi is looking for death, even the British Mansion dares to move." ”
"He has offended the people of the world, and now he wants to move the British Mansion of the head of the nobles, is he going to cut himself off from the civil and military officials of the court?"
There are many high-ranking officials and magnates in the Ming Dynasty, but there is only one British government, although it is very exciting to see Chu Yi copying high-ranking officials and powerful families, but if you think about it, how can high-ranking officials and magnates be comparable to the British government of the first noble home of the Ming Dynasty.
Thinking that Chu Yi was going to confiscate the British Mansion, I don't know how many people were excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they were slightly stunned, and when Chu Yi's figure disappeared at the end of the long street, the people who reacted were in an uproar like a tide, and went straight to the direction of the British Mansion.
In the corner, several sturdy men with a fierce aura also heard the conversation between Chu Yi and Cao Shaoqin, and their expressions changed, and their faces showed horror.
Seeing Chu Yi and the others leaving, the men glanced at each other, and the first one of them said: "Chu Yi actually wants to do something to the Guogong Mansion, this matter is very important, and it must be done quickly!" ”
The other person looked at Chu Yi's distant figure and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I'm afraid it's too late, Chu Yi and they are riding their horses, and we ......won't be able to catch up at all."
However, the man at the head shook his head and said, "If it's too late, you go back home immediately, and I will take the first step!" ”
As he spoke, he saw the man's figure step out more than a foot away, and in the blink of an eye, the man disappeared into a building.
Several men were stunned for a moment, and said with a look of surprise on their faces: "Why did you forget that Wu Chang Zengmeng's old Guogong valued it, and gave him a light martial arts method, plus taking a shortcut, he will definitely be able to rush to the Guogong Mansion before Chu Yi!" ”
Originally, the Empress Dowager issued a decree to summon the Chinese military officials in Beijing to preside over the imperial meeting, and it can be said that unless there is some unexpected situation, any official must participate.
However, the British prince did not participate in the court meeting on the grounds that he was old and occasionally felt cold, but sent his grandson Zhang Lun to go.
The Queen Mother naturally would not force the British Duke to participate in the Great Court Meeting, so at this time, some of the nobles were left in the palace by the Son of Heaven, and some of the nobles had just left the palace, and Zhang Lun was stayed.
Naturally, the British government sent many people to keep an eye on the movement of the Forbidden City, and when Dongchang and Jinyi Weiti rode out, the British government received the news.
In the pavilion of the garden of the British Mansion, the British Duke sat there with a leisurely face, looking at the steward in front of him.
The steward stood in front of the British duke, his body was straight, even if he was dressed in servant clothes, it was still difficult to hide his military spirit, which showed that this steward must have come from the army.
The British Gong Yi has always been in charge of the Beijing camp, from the first generation of the British Gong Zhang Fu, he is the commander of the army, such a noble family, the servants in the family are not comparable to the ordinary powerful families, all of them are veterans selected from the army for the rest of their lives.
"Guogong, there is no definite news in the palace yet, but it is Dongchang and Jinyiwei who are out, and I don't know which side occupies the dominant position in this court meeting!"
With the ability of the British government, how can it not be seen that this great court meeting is directly related to who will be the lord of the Ming Dynasty in the next few decades.
Either the Queen Mother suddenly became stronger, relying on the support of Jiao Fang and some other people to suppress Jiang Mian, Mu Zhaigong and other people who tried to change the sky, or Jiang Mian and others forced the palace successfully and smoothly changed the sky.
As long as the general trend of the Great Dynasty Meeting has been decided, then Dongchang and Jinyiwei will naturally fall into the hands of the winner, so it is impossible to judge which side wins.
The British public faction was leisurely, sipping tea and slowly smiled: "The court is in the court, what do I have to do, the reason why the old man refused to participate in the court meeting under the pretext of illness this time is not to take our British mansion out of this turbulent whirlpool!" ”
The steward's face was full of admiration and said: "The old man is really far-sighted, as the so-called not doing well, doing more wrong, especially this is related to the replacement of the Son of Heaven, the British government is involved in it, success is useless, failure is over, it is better to laugh like the old prince to see the changes, I will not move!" ”
Brushing his beard, the British Duke said: "The British Mansion is already extremely rich, and there is really no need to participate in such things, so the old man told Lun'er, above the court, don't say a word, just watch, don't say anything!" ”
The steward smiled slightly: "The little grandfather is the future British prince determined by the national father, and the little grandfather will go to court on behalf of the old man, which can give the royal face and make my British government transcendent, this move is wonderful!" ”
Zhang Mao stroked his beard and laughed: "You old thing, when did you learn the crepe!" ”
At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps, and I saw a servant walking briskly and saluting Zhang Mao: "I have seen Guogong!" ”
Zhang Mao said: "You don't have to be formal, you have something to say!" ”
The servant said with a straight expression: "Returning to the country, just now, the people we sent out came to report, and the chief manager of Chu Yi led Dongchang and Jinyi Wei to go straight to Jiang Miange's old mansion!" ”
Zhang Mao was slightly stunned, and sighed lightly with a long breath: "Xie Qian, Xie Qian, it seems that you are still a bad move!" ”
As the first noble family rooted in the Forbidden City for more than a hundred years, the British Mansion is definitely a towering tree with intricate roots, and with the power of the British Mansion, it is not difficult to grasp Xie Qian's whereabouts, and naturally knows that Xie Qian has settled in Jiang Mian's mansion.
What made Zhang Mao sigh was that when everyone thought that Chu Yi was far away from Beijing and it would be a few days before he could return to Beijing, Chu Yi quietly returned to Beijing.
Even Zhang Mao suspected that Chu Yi had already returned to Beijing, but he just endured it and didn't show up, now that Chu Yi has appeared in front of people, if there is no accident, it must be above the Great Dynasty Meeting, and the overall situation has been decided.
The steward standing on the side waved his hand, motioned for the servant to retreat, looked at Zhang Mao and said, "Grandpa Guo, it seems that Xie Qian and they have been defeated this time!" ”
Zhang Mao chuckled and said: "Yes, Xie Qian, that old fox, has been calculating all his life, but when he reaches the age of retirement, he has planted a big heel in the hands of a little fox!" ”
I saw Zhang Mao get up slowly, and the steward on the side hurriedly stepped forward to support Zhang Mao's body, and I heard Zhang Mao sigh: "It's old, as the so-called generation of new people replace the old, we old guys, it's time to let go!" ”
The steward listened to Zhang Mao's emotion and couldn't help but say: "The old man should be strong, but it is a little too early to say that he is delegating power at this time!" ”
Brushing his beard, Zhang Mao smiled and said, "It's good early, it's good early!" ”
The majestic British Mansion is open in front of the mansion, and the flat ground paved with large bluestone is enough to accommodate hundreds of people.
Two stone lions weighing thousands of pounds are located on both sides of the mansion gate, and several servants are standing on both sides of the gate in high spirits.
"Phew!"
With a shout, I saw Chu Yi standing on his horse, looking at the gate of the British Mansion from afar.
Behind him was Cao Shaoqin with a group of Jinyi guards and Dongchang fans, a group of hundreds of people, and in the blink of an eye, they occupied a large area in front of the mansion.
The servants guarding at the gate of the mansion couldn't help but be stunned when they saw Chu Yi, Chu Yi was not the first time he had come to the British Mansion, so these servants were no strangers.
To be able to guard the door of the British Mansion, not to mention anything else, at least the ability to recognize people still needs to be there.
Chu Yi stepped forward and said to a few servants: "Chu Yi has come to visit the old man, please pass it on!" ”
The first person immediately ordered people to enter the mansion, and at the same time stepped forward and said to Chu Yi is big salute: "The little one has seen the big manager, please wait for a while." ”
At this time, Cao Shaoqin was behind Chu Yi's side, staring at the gate of the British Mansion, if Chu Yi gave an order, then Cao Shaoqin would definitely rush up and blast the gate open as soon as possible.
The servant seemed to notice that something was not quite right with Cao Shaoqin's expression, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, could it be that Chu Yi and the others had bad intentions?
It's no wonder that this servant would have such an idea, who made Chu Yi menacing, especially the hundreds of angry Dongchang fans and brocade-clothed guards behind him, so that anyone who saw it couldn't help but think about it!
