Besides, if he doesn't stay in the Hanlin Academy for three years, what if the emperor or the new emperor and Xia Qing prevent him from joining the cabinet on this ground?

This is not possible!

"Your Majesty! Not long after Wei Chen entered the Hanlin Academy, he was transferred out of the Hanlin Academy, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right? ”

Gu Chengyu was a little embarrassed, and he asked tentatively.

"What? You don't want to go to Dali Temple? The emperor's eyes were slight, and his complexion sank.

Gu Chengyu knew that he didn't know how to raise himself, but for the sake of the position of first assistant in the future, he had to reply stubbornly: "Actually, this matter is not in a hurry, when there is a vacancy, the emperor, you can think about Weichen again." ”

The emperor was silent for a long time, "I am a golden mouth, and I promise that I will naturally not change my life." Since you don't want to go to Dali Temple, then stay in Hanlin Temple first! ”

Gu Chengyu breathed a sigh of relief, although the emperor did not promote the official again. But he knew that if there was a vacancy in the Hanlin Academy, the emperor would definitely fulfill his promise.

"Mingmo, go to Lord Yin's mansion first."

Gu Chengyu had just left his job and was about to go to the teacher's house to talk to the teacher about Yao Mengxian's marriage.

But he thought about it, it had been almost a month since he left the capital, so he should go to the senior brother to learn about the movements of the court first.

"You can be regarded as back, it's been almost a month since you went to Hejian Mansion this time." Yin Kun was also overjoyed when he watched Gu Chengyu return.

"This time it's a hurry, and I want to thank Senior Brother Zhang Luo in the capital. Otherwise, the incriminating evidence I have gathered will not be able to reach heaven. ”

Gu Chengyu smiled, this time it was also thanks to Yin Kun.

Lu Chen has the support of Marquis Zhan Yuan's Mansion, so naturally he doesn't have to worry. When he was far away in Hejian Mansion, he sent those incriminating evidence to the capital.

And if he hadn't gotten Yin Kun's help, his movements would have to be a step slower.

"I didn't expect you to go to Hejian Mansion this time and accomplish such a big thing. This case is widely implicated, and maybe there will be a big change in the capital next. ”

Yin Kun's face was grim, and he didn't greet Gu Chengyu again, but analyzed the movements of the court to Gu Chengyu.

Gu Chengyu was a little surprised, the case of Hejian Mansion had such a big influence?

Could it be that many officials in the capital are involved? I didn't expect to pull the whole body!

If he hadn't had a low official position, maybe he would have really made a great achievement, and he would have been promoted to become rich.

"Are there many officials in the capital involved? Then the emperor may have a big move this time. ”

Gu Chengyu first thought of the matter of establishing a prince, although he had just gone to the Hanlin Academy to answer the throne today. But the atmosphere in the Hanlin Academy was a little stagnant, and those officials were whispering, and he also listened to it.

The emperor couldn't stand it anymore, and he was about to make a prince.

"Not bad! You've just returned to the capital, and you don't know anything. During this period, during the court meeting, more than half of the officials united and asked the emperor to appoint the crown prince as soon as possible. But the emperor has not made a decision for a long time, and those courtiers are excited, and the emperor is almost unable to suppress it. Moreover, those officials did not show mercy to the emperor, and their words were fierce, as if they would not give up if they did not make a prince! ”

Yin Kun poured a bowl of tea for Gu Chengyu, and then looked at Gu Chengyu, also with a sad face.

"You mean that the emperor will appoint a crown prince in these two days. Then the matter of Hejian Mansion this time just gave the emperor a reason, maybe some people will be ruthlessly punished? ”

Gu Chengyu pondered for a moment and came to this conclusion. As long as the emperor has a candidate in mind, the emperor will inevitably suppress other forces.

The best thing to do is to cut off some of the wings of those parties, otherwise it is still a matter of two to say whether that person's position as prince can be firmly seated.

This time, the matter of Hejian Mansion happened to be taken by the emperor and cleaned up those eyesores.

Yin Kun showed appreciation, this little junior brother has always been a person who knows the meaning of the strings and listens, and one step is counted as three steps.

"Not bad! Your analysis is right, let's not talk about those who are greedy for ink and bribery. With the treasure map, they have a handle in the hands of the emperor. This time for the treasure map, all parties have appeared. Do you think the emperor only sent you to Hejian Mansion? Naturally, it can't be. Presumably, the emperor knows the situation in Hejian Mansion well, so don't act rashly! ”

Yin Kun glanced at Gu Chengyu with deep meaning, this can be regarded as advice.

How could Gu Chengyu panic?

"Senior brother, still not worried about my personality? Although I have done these two things, I have not been in contact with other forces, even the local forces in Hejian Province, I have not dared to ask for help, who knows who those people are? ”

Gu Chengyu smiled, he had already considered it, what he could do was done, why did he have to find someone to drag him back?

"I'm naturally relieved of your ability, and you advised me to think twice last time. The emperor has a clear heart! Let's do our part obediently, otherwise the emperor won't be able to spare us. ”

Yin Kun This is not only a warning to Gu Chengyu, but also to himself.

"Next, as long as we pay close attention to the emperor's movements, we can know who the emperor wants to be the crown prince."

Gu Chengyu's eyes closed slightly, looking at the ups and downs of the tea leaves in the tea bowl.

These tea leaves are scrambling to climb up, but they can't resist the control of the tea.

"I think so, it's just that the emperor often likes to do things in a false way, and we may not be able to figure out the emperor's intentions!"

Yin Kun sighed, he had been an official for so many years, but he still couldn't figure out the emperor's true thoughts.

"His mind will always be revealed one day, so why should we be in a hurry? Besides, the most urgent thing now should not be us, it should be those princes. ”

He and Yin Kun are both pure ministers, what is there to worry about?

The worst outcome is to wait for the crown prince to be established, and then they will lean forward.

Even if the prince has no affection for them, but Yin Kun is in a high position, and he is also shrewd and capable, can he really abandon them? You can't do that, right?

"Yesterday, your second and third senior brothers came to me and asked you about the details of your trip to Hejian Mansion, but I didn't disclose it. Your third senior brother is a little impatient, you have to use more snacks. ”

Suddenly, Yin Kun mentioned Wu An and He Jisheng. In his words, he seemed to be a little dissatisfied with He Jisheng.

However, Yin Kun thought about it, but he still couldn't say it too bluntly, so as to save the friendship between the brothers and sisters.

"Oh? But asked about the treasure map and the ink case? "Gu Chengyu is not surprised, Wu An's ability is not strong, but he is a conservative faction. People don't talk much, but they can do things steadfastly.

But He Jisheng is different, he is a little greedy for merit. and has already stood in line, so I am afraid that I have ulterior motives to inquire about my own affairs like this.

"Hmmm! You have made a great contribution this time, does the emperor say how to reward you? Yin Kun didn't continue to talk about He Jisheng, he smiled and joked about Gu Chengyu.

"I don't know yet, it is my duty as a courtier to share the emperor's worries and solve problems, how can I take Qiao? However, the emperor mentioned it and wanted to transfer me to Dali Temple. ”
