Chapter 178 (End)
Gu Nanye hadn't told Qu Muge too much about military matters before, for the sake of her safety, but now he had to tell her.
"There have always been rumors in the court that when the first emperor died, because he was worried that the emperor would not be able to take on the throne, he wrote a secret decree to stay in the hands of the queen mother, and Zheng Mizhi could not only impeach and depose the emperor, but also urgently mobilize the Beijing army."
Qu Muge was shocked, this secret decree has such a big right?!
No wonder Empress Dowager Yu has always dared to do her own desires towards Emperor Yong.
But Gu Nanye added: "But this secret decree was drafted by the Empress Dowager and several imperial uncles of the clan when the first emperor was dying, and the cabinet ministers and living langs of the court and the central government were not present. ”
Qu Muge understood, Gu Nanye was suspicious of the authenticity of the secret decree.
Gu Nanye: "If the Queen Mother has the support of the clan and courtiers, this secret decree is true, and if the Queen Mother provokes public anger, then this secret decree can also be fake." ”
There is a huge space for manipulation between truth and falsehood, it depends on what they do and what the Queen Mother does.
"The imperial uncles who supported the queen mother at the beginning were because they had thoughts about the throne, and now that King Qing has an accident, my father wants to make me the prince, and the emperor's thoughts about the throne must be greater, and I don't know if they have discussed it, whose name is written on the secret decree of the emperor." Qu Muge said with a slight joke, as if he didn't care about the secret purpose.
Gu Nanye understood her thoughts and nodded: "Indeed, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is placed in front of them, who can not want it?" It is reported that suspicion has gradually arisen between them, and there are signs of falling into each other. ”
Qu Muge said: "Then let them fight for a while, I care more about you, when will you return to the court?" ”
Gu Nanye has been out of office for half a year, and now he has completed the constitutional amendment, and the upper and lower houses will be formed at the beginning of the year, and then the prime minister will elect the prime minister, and then the prime minister will appoint the cabinet and officially start the new policy.
Although Gu Nanye always prevaricated Qu Muge about preparing for marriage and planning business, Qu Muge still hoped that he could return to his rightful high position.
In her heart, the post of prime minister is none other than Gu Nanye!
Gu Nanye gave Song Xiyuan, Fan Shishui and the others a look, and they immediately retreated.
When there were only two people left, Gu Nanye shook his head at Qu Muge: "I don't plan to participate in the election." ”
Qu Muge looked at him in disbelief.
Gu Nanye put away his attitude of talking about business, approached Qu Muge, touched her head affectionately, and smiled: "I just want to be your colt." ”
Qu Muge was not confused by his smile, but instead stiffened his face: "No! ”
Gu Nanye quipped: "Do you want to regret the marriage?" ”
Qu Muge didn't talk to him, he glared at him, he was angry.
They had already discussed before, when Gu Nanye stepped down as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, she could still understand that he was making a temporary concession in order to let her, the princess, have the right to inherit, and she also thought that when she inherited the throne, who could still control her and Gu Nanye?
But she didn't expect that Gu Nanye had already given up.
Gu Nanye wiped her frowning brow with his fingers, "If you are an ordinary princess, the identity of a concubine cannot restrain me, just because you want to inherit the throne, I must give up and retreat, do you want to be a puppet empress in the eyes of people?" Even if you are willing to do it, I don't want me to 'coerce the princess to give orders' in history. What's more, one of our husband and wife is the emperor and the other is the prime minister, which is a challenge to the legitimacy of the constitutional reform, and support is the foundation of the country. ”
Seeing that Qu Muge was about to refute, Gu Nanye pressed her lips with his thumb, "I've thought it through, it's good for me to guard you and assist you by your side." ”
Qu Muge knew that he was right, and he didn't think of a good solution for a while, so he was unhappy: "I haven't gotten married yet, who is the husband and wife with you......"
Gu Nanye stepped forward and kissed her with a smile, trying his best to soothe her emotions.
On the eve of the Lantern Festival, the grandmother beside the Empress Dowager Yu quietly sent Bai Lingting's baby boy to the princess's mansion, which made the Empress Dowager Yu soften.
Qu Muge did not lose his words, and arranged for the north to send an urgent report to the army on the day of the opening of the dynasty, and found out the whereabouts of King Qing, who was seriously injured and survived, when he collected the army of Yanbei Domain.
Qu Muge immediately arranged for someone to take King Qing back and send him to Jinxing Palace to recuperate, and after Empress Dowager Yu found out, she immediately drove to Tianjin.
After Empress Dowager Yu left Beijing, the atmosphere in the capital and the palace was also relaxed, and Qu Muge and Gu Nanye could finally devote themselves to the formation of the upper and lower houses.
"Among the reformers, the voice of support for Liu Ge Lao is the highest, and the reformists are headed by Ge Shangshu, and the clan relatives have their own thoughts, so the old faction has different opinions and has not yet become a trend." Song Xiyuan reported the recent situation to Qu Muge.
Qu Muge asked, "What is the chance of Ge Shangshu winning?" ”
Song Xiyuan glanced at Gu Nanye, who was sitting with Qu Muge, and said vaguely: "It's on par with Liu Ge Lao." ”
Qu Muge thought about it, turned his head and asked, "What does Master Hou think?" ”
Gu Nanye looked up from a bunch of wedding ritual lists, "Liu Ge has a better chance of winning." ”
Qu Muge nodded.
Liu Ge was born as a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, and he sat in the Zhongshu Order, and he was in an important position as prime minister, and the officials of the reform faction and the scholars of the reform faction all supported him. And he came from a noble background, and his mother was the daughter of the King of Fenyang, the lord of Qingyang, so he also had many supporters among the clansmen of the old school.
"Then the Hou Ye will go back and comfort Ge Shangshu."
Gu Nanye smiled, he had been avoiding Ge Zheng recently, but he didn't want to see him.
Ge Zheng has been annoyed recently, according to his meaning, the reformists should nominate Gu Nanye to run for election, but he didn't expect Gu Nanye to directly push him to the cusp of the wave. In this all-day travel activity, he had no time to do government affairs, so he had to stay up all night to make up for the errand, which made him tired enough.
Now that Liu Ge's momentum is stronger than him, he is not in a hurry. He has been an official in the same dynasty as Liu Ge Lao for many years, and he recognizes Liu Ge Lao quite a lot, when Gu Nanye proposed to the emperor that he wanted to promote Liu Hanlin into the cabinet, he also spent a lot of words on the side, so in the end, whether he or Liu Ge Lao was elected prime minister, it was all right.
The only thing is that it's a pity that Gu Nanye is going to be "hidden by the golden house".
But after sighing, he was relieved again, although Princess Taixuan was intelligent, but after all, her prestige was not enough, her experience was still shallow, and only with Gu Hou by her side could she sit on the throne.
After weighing it, I accepted it.
Qu Muge also saw what Gu Nanye meant, and he recognized Liu Ge Lao or Ge Shangshu being on top. But she saw that Nanye didn't focus on the election of the prime minister at all, so she wanted to make fun of him.
"Electing the prime minister is a first-class national priority, and now that you are stepping down, you really don't have to worry about it at all? Hou Ye is really wide. ”
Gu Nanye took the brush and sketched on the gift list, "Our wedding is my top priority now, and His Royal Highness, as a bride, really doesn't worry about it at all?" It's really heart-wrenching. ”
He joked back as it was, which made Qu Muge's heart empty.
And the wedding date in June is coming, Qu Muge has to complete the wedding ceremony and engagement ceremony on his birthday in March. She didn't bother at all about these important things, it was all Gu Nanye in Zhang Luo, and now those housekeepers in the harem seem to have accepted Gu Nanye's dispatch to do things.
Qu Muge sat down beside Gu Nanye, snuggled beside him, and asked pretendly: "Who I don't worry about, come, let's take a look at who the guest of honor and Lu Li invites?" ”
Gu Nanye doted on her nose, "You, what do you call me, didn't Zhengbin choose the Duchess of Zhuguo a long time ago?" ”
"Ah......" Qu Muge thought about it, Gu Nanye seemed to have shown her a list, because she trusted Gu Nanye's arrangement, she didn't take it to heart at all, so she arranged it very well.
Gu Nanye re-flipped out the list of participants and showed her: "Concubine Yiwen died early, and the Queen Mother was not in the palace, so I invited An Zhaoyi to do the ceremony." ”
Qu Muge nodded, she remembered that in order to choose the presiding officer of the ceremony, the emperor specially made the decision to give An Meirao a large section of the position, and became the first of the nine concubines.
For this, Li Mujin thanked her a lot.
Gu Nanye continued: "In private, I originally wanted to invite my mother to be your guest, but my mother tried her best to refuse, first, my father died less than a year ago, and my mother was not in line with this heavy gift, and secondly, my mother was not a blessed person, so I invited the Duchess of Zhuguo, whose parents are long-lived and full of children and grandchildren, to be your guest of honor. ”
Qu Muge thanked Gu Furao for saving her life and upbringing, and treated her like her own mother, hearing Gu Nanye's words, Qu Muge: "Who is not a blessed person?" I will definitely be filial to her, so that she will enjoy endless blessings in the second half of her life! ”
Gu Nanye smiled and kissed her forehead and said, "Mother knows your heart. ”
He continued: "The praiser is the eldest princess Li Muman, the one who rejects it is Xiang Concubine, and the deacon is your three sisters, the fifth princess, the sixth princess, and Bai Lingjia. ”
Qu Muge said with a smile: "It's very well arranged, it's not that I don't worry about it, it's that I don't need to watch it again." ”
Gu Nanye naturally did everything he could help her, these private matters were not a problem, only how to be a ruler, he couldn't help her, she could only rely on herself.
"Let's go and approve the folds, and when the imperial weapon supervisor sends the hairpin for the ceremony, I'll call you again."
Qu Muge reluctantly sat in Gu Nanye's arms for a moment before tidying up his clothes, sitting back in front of the table upright, and starting to read state affairs again.
On the first day of March 18, the main hall door of the Huangji Hall was opened, and Princess Taixuan would complete the ceremony here, and hold an engagement ceremony.
After the ceremony, Gonggong Hu suddenly delivered the holy decree of Emperor Yong.
Everyone knelt on the ground, thinking that it was a reward for Princess Taixuan, but Gonggong Hu looked at Gu Nanye and said, "Please accept the order." ”
Gu Nanye stepped forward and knelt down with Qu Muge, and said, "Minister, Gu Nanye, take the order." ”
This decree commended Gu Nanye for his contribution to pacifying the turmoil of the Yanbei Domain and controlling the floods, and the emperor specially issued an edict to give him a first-class loyal and brave duke.
In front of the Imperial Palace, everyone was shocked in their hearts, if the marquis could inherit it, there were still nobles who became the marquis at a young age, but this kind of loyal and brave prince was the first time that he fell back to such a young person!
The emperor chose to seal Princess Taixuan's ceremony and their engagement ceremony, which is not only a reward for Gu Nanye, but also a support for Princess Taixuan!
And the word "loyalty and bravery" given is full of the emperor's expectations and admonitions to Gu Nanye, hoping that he will be loyal to Taixuan, protect Taixuan, be loyal to Yongguo, and protect Yongguo!
The two glanced at each other, knocked on the ground, and praised: "Son, thank your father!" ”
