(6) The situation does not allow for optimism
"Then from this point of view, if Your Highness wants to inherit the unification, it doesn't seem to be as difficult as imagined?"
Hearing Yan Xige say this, Lian Qingjue was a little puzzled.
"If it's just like that, this palace will naturally be able to become the crown prince justifiably and eventually inherit the throne."
Yan Xige frowned.
"Unexpectedly, his father, who has always been healthy, suddenly fell seriously ill a few years ago, and his father was ill, because he did not announce to the world that the palace was the crown prince, so Yan Yusheng took the opportunity to meddle in state affairs. If he is the only one, he will not pose any threat to the palace, but in the harem, there is the queen mother to help him, and the queen mother is the daughter of the prime minister Ren Zhaokang, with the support of the queen mother, it means that there is the support of the prime minister Ren Zhaokang and his henchmen. ”
"I see."
Lian Qingjue was surprised, and then listened to Yan Xige continue.
"This prime minister Ren Zhaokang is also a cunning and insidious person, since his father ascended the throne and set him up as the prime minister, he began to form a gang and do all the things that flattered the superior and the inferior, as far as the palace knows, the Cheng family rebellion case that caused a sensation in the world twenty years ago has more or less his hands and feet."
"The Cheng family rebelled?"
Lian Qingjue thought about it, as if he had indeed heard of this big case in Bo Yanguo before, it is said that this Cheng family was originally an official family, and all dynasties were famous for their loyalty and righteousness, but twenty years ago, because of the intention to rebel, overnight, the whole family was imprisoned, and then in less than five days, hundreds of people in the Cheng family were beheaded, and those who were exiled were exiled, and there were also several families who were implicated because of their friendship with the Cheng family on weekdays.
"Hmm. It is said that the Cheng family was highly respected by the people back then, so if this hall can find out the truth about the Cheng family's case twenty years ago, then this Ren Zhaokang is not afraid. ”
"Your Highness is so confident, but you already have an eyebrow?"
Hearing that Yan Xige actually wanted to reopen the old case, even Qing Jue had to admit in surprise that these two princes were really thoughtful people.
"I only have a slight clue, after all, after twenty years, the people who knew about it have already been executed by their father, exiled, and those who were fortunate enough to be spared have also disappeared incognito."
Yan Xige frowned a little frustratedly.
"So that's why I invited Gongzi Lian to come. Maybe even Gongzi is still wondering, why the palace would pin this matter on an official from another country, and now, I am not afraid of Lian Gongzi's jokes, in fact, over the years, although the palace has been helping my father to take care of some trivial things, but has never had any arrogant thoughts, so he has not deliberately cultivated his own power in the court. If it weren't for the fact that his father was seriously ill, Yan Xisheng took the opportunity to make trouble and repeatedly wanted to kill the main hall, but the main hall was actually unwilling to kill his siblings. ”
"Oh?"
Even Qingjue was even more surprised by Yan Xige's words, but I don't know if it was because his expression was too obvious, so Shangguan Yanyue, who had been silent on the side, was once again angry with himself.
"What is Lian Gongzi's reaction? Do you not believe what His Highness said? ”
"...... of the Flames"
"No, no, no."
Even Qingjue smiled lightly, and did not bother with Shangguan Xuanyue, but looked at Yan Xige, who wanted to dissuade Shangguan Xuanyue.
"So His Royal Highness is actually for self-preservation, so he has to fight against the eldest prince, and because there is no one available in the court, he can only compromise and ask my Emperor Yu for help?"
"Lian Qingjue ......"
"It's not wrong that even Childe said so."
patted Shangguan Xuanyue's arm with an angry face soothingly, and Yan Xige turned to look at Lian Qingjue.
"In fact, it wouldn't be enough if no one was available, but even Gongzi should understand that the officials in the DPRK and China have always been like grass on the wall, they saw that the main hall and Yan Xisheng were not compatible, and they knew that Yan Xisheng was very close to the queen and the prime minister, so they ......"
"Lian Mou understood."
Lian Qingjue thought for a moment and asked again.
"Then I don't know who is in the court now, who has his heart to His Highness?"
"General Yuan Shuguang has always been upright and loyal, he can't get used to the style of Yan Xisheng and others, so he still has a bias towards the main hall."
"Oh, what about the other than General Yuan?"
"There are a few officials who have shown their sincerity to the main hall, but the main hall is not able to fully trust them at the moment, so ......."
"Lian Mou understood."
Although Yan Xige has not finished speaking, even Qingjue has already understood his current situation, according to this view, Yan Xige's current situation is actually not very optimistic, if he is in Yu State, he is the director of the Du Xing Division, and no one dares to refute what he says or does, so it is naturally much easier to do things, but now, he is in this Bo Yan country, firstly, he does not have an official and a half-job, and secondly, there is no trustworthy right-hand man in the court, and he wants to find out the old case twenty years ago to bring down the prime minister, and he wants to win over Yan Xisheng, but it is difficult and difficult!
"In fact, the main hall also knows that it is quite difficult to act this time."
Seeing Lian Qingjue frowning and thinking, Yan Xige could certainly guess what he was thinking.
"So the main hall has begun to recruit wise men, in addition to Yan Yue, in the past few days, the main hall has found another person who can be reused."
"Oh? I don't know who it is? ”
"His name is Chu Jiwen. A few days ago, the palace issued a notice, saying that to recruit the family guards of this mansion, one of the requirements is to be able to read and hyphenate, although many people have signed up, but after these few days of observation in the temple, among the dozen people who entered the house, only this Chu Ji bra has great ambitions, and he also privately asked to see the palace, in front of the hall to analyze the affairs of the court is unambiguous. Yesterday, the main temple sent someone to secretly investigate his identity, and it was also found that there was nothing wrong with his identity. ”
"That's very good."
Lian Qingjue nodded.
"According to Lian's view, His Highness's top priority is to recruit talents, and as for what happens in the future, it needs to be discussed carefully, and it must not be reckless."
"Do you still have to say that?"
Seeing that Lian Qingjue had always looked indifferent, Shangguan Yanyue only felt that the more he looked at him, the more unpleasant it became.
"...... of the Flames"
Yan Xige pinched Shangguan Xuanyue's arm, because just now Shangguan Xuanyue repeatedly targeted Lian Qingjue, he already had a trace of displeasure in his heart.
"Your Highness......"
Shangguan Xuanyue glanced at Lian Qingjue indignantly, and then looked at Yan Yuge, with a trace of grievance on his face.
"I talked so much to Gongzi Lian today, I think that Gongzi Lian's body has not healed, I'm afraid he is also tired, so why don't we discuss it tomorrow?"
Looking at Shangguan Yanyue's aggrieved appearance, Yan Xige also couldn't bear it, so he rushed to Lian Qingjue.
"It's okay, then Lian said goodbye."
Lian Qingjue stood up, saluted Yan Xige, and then turned around and walked out. And behind him, there was a faint comfort from Yan Xige's soft voice.
