348 Hearts (Asking for Pink Tickets)
Now that they are all civilian officials in power, civil officials are even good at forming gangs, Ji Zhenyuan's matter is that she is too careless, she didn't expect that there is a big conspiracy behind them, and if she looks for helpers in the future, she will naturally be careful and careful.
Every time she thought of this, she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, Ji Zhenyuan What kind of earth-shattering conspiracy they had for the time being, let's just say that if Yin Yao is in power, I am afraid that they will also be held in the palm of their hands, which is completely out of their expectations.
Fortunately, the case was solved, Ji Zhenyuan died, and now she just needs to take every step of the way and try to take every step steadily, even if the emperor knows that Yin Yao wants to fight for this throne, it doesn't matter.
The important thing is that she had better get the will before the emperor dies!
After Yin Zhao and her husband returned to the palace, it was time to enter the formal married life.
While Xie Wan was preparing to invite the couple to the door, he was also busy with the matter at hand.
After dinner that day, Yin Yu talked about the progress of the investigation of Mr. Seven, Xie Wan thought about it, but said: "Mr. Seven's matter is important, but I think the most urgent thing at the moment is not this. β
"I know." Yin Yu nodded, his face became solemn, "You mean the affairs in the palace, right?" β
Xie Wan didn't speak.
Since the crown prince's illness is hopeless, then they have to prepare early, although the throne must have a holy decree to succeed the inheritance, but if they do not fight, the consequences will be unimaginable, fighting for the throne has nothing to do with power, but to protect their own rights and interests. Instead of waiting for the emperor to make a decree, why can't they make an effort?
"Tell me what you think."
There was a moment of silence. Yin Yu had regained his usual appearance, sitting in front of her, looking at her intently.
Xie Wan took one of his hands in his hand, gently rubbed the fine lines on his head, and said, "If you let me say it, I will say it." From the beginning, I never thought that I would become the emperor's wife, so from the beginning, I did not have any ambitions and aspirations for the court and the society. My original dream was to defeat Xie Rong and live my quiet and comfortable life.
"Now I seem to have got everything I wanted, but when I think about it. It's not like that. Xie Rong still has the possibility of making a comeback. And around our glamorous life, there are still many potential enemies, I used to think that although the emperor was harsh to you, he still loved you in his heart. It's love for you. So I'm sure he won't do anything to hurt you.
But what happened later proved my guess wrong. If the emperor really loves you, he will not deprive him of the title that belongs to you, if he really loves His Royal Highness the Prince. How could he be willing to let him watch his son be left in exile and be sad because of this? His Royal Highness's illness must have been known to the emperor, and at this time, he was still so bent on going his own way, which brought harm not only to us, but also to the entire Dayin.
"If a country's court is in turmoil for a long time, its people will always feel insecure. When the time comes, once something like a civil uprising happens, it's something that you and I can't control.
"I know that because you are faithful and benevolent because you are a gentleman, you don't want to do anything disloyal and unfilial easily, but what I want to say is that if Li Shimin did not launch a coup d'Γ©tat in Xuanwumen in the early Tang Dynasty, he would not have prospered for hundreds of years. Even if he launched a mutiny, it did not affect him to become a generation of Ming monarchs. Therefore, sometimes people do not follow the rules, but they may also conform to the way of heaven. β
She looked at the hand in her palm, it was still warm and dry, and it was the hand that could give her the most comfort and peace of mind. She still can't imagine that her husband will be a heavenly son who dominates the world, and she can't imagine that he will continue to fill the harem for various purposes in the future, how can she not feel sad when she thinks of this?
Now how many of the concubines in the harem can still see the emperor? She often felt that they were a flock of birds raised by the emperor, and her eyes would always fall only on the only man. But in the face of today's reality, these are no longer important, survival is important, and it is important to hold a high position and not lose the momentum.
Yin Yu suddenly grabbed her hand, and his gaze was also a little complicated.
He often has a tacit understanding with Xie Wan, just like even if she doesn't say it now, he also knows what she is struggling with, he doesn't want to do what she says, now the Chinese courtiers and military generals have almost half of him in hand, according to the emperor's current behavior, it is not a big deal for him to support the crown prince and force him to take the throne.
He didn't do it, he just wanted to gamble with himself.
He was also just a mortal, and he longed for a harmonious family and a family that didn't have to play tricks, and now that the emperor and the crown prince were seriously ill, no one knew which of them would go first. Even though he was ready to deal with the unexpected, he still wanted to see how the emperor would choose, and he wanted to know why he made the choice to give up on him.
He knew that this was wrong, until Yin Xu was almost injured by Princess Zheng.
From the beginning to the end, he never came forward, it doesn't mean that he doesn't feel sorry for his wife and son, he is just blaming himself, blaming himself for almost neglecting his duties. So these days, he has stepped up his secret investigation of Mr. Seven, and he has also begun to move around frequently with Wei Bin and them, in order to make up for and prevent the next time, he can no longer take care of the rule that the prince of the clan and the prince of the county are not allowed to have too close contacts with the court.
"I know, I've been letting you down a bit lately." He lowered his head, his voice muffled, "But I didn't mean to, I never wanted to give up. I have ideals and ambitions, and I have not come to this day so that others will destroy me. I'm sorry, but from tomorrow onwards, I'll shift my focus to the court. β
"No need to say I'm sorry." Xie Wan pulled him over who was squatting in front of him, "Actually, if you are serious, why shouldn't I?" I thought that some things could be taken naturally, but this time the Zheng family secretly set a trap and let Princess Zheng deal with me, so that I suddenly understood that I was not qualified to relax.
"We are all ordinary people, and the road ahead is unknown to me, and I will be hesitant, confused, and maybe wrong in judgment or want to escape. But I won't be afraid, with you by my side, even if I escape, it's only temporary.
"Ah Yu, I know that you are not running away, you are just still being bound by your gentleman's code, now you should know that a gentleman who values benevolence and righteousness can only become a tragic hero in the end. We might as well let go and earn a stable future for ourselves and for Xu'er and his younger siblings. His Highness's illness has come to this point, and what we can do is not to wait for a miracle, but to change and prepare for future difficulties. β
Yin Yu nodded, lowered his head and took a deep breath, and said: "You are right, I have been deeply influenced by Confucius and Mencius since I was a child, and I used to think that this was my strength, but I didn't expect that it would become a rope that bound me in the palace fight. - I'm glad I had you, Wanwan. He squeezed her hands.
No one is a person made of steel, and everyone needs someone to accompany and cheer him up, and he can have a calm and resolute Xie Wan to help sort out the confusion and hesitation in his heart, so that he can clearly see his choice on the road to the future, how lucky he is.
Xie Wan also feels very lucky.
Although she has the memory of two lives, the fate of this life is already completely different from the previous life, and she can't guess many things, so the future is even more difficult to grasp. After suddenly becoming the princess of the county, although she was not too excited, her status was suddenly raised, and she didn't know anything about the clan, so she was silent for a while because of so many rules and etiquette.
But even if she is so well-behaved, isn't there someone who is so unruly and wants to bite her down and sue her to the front of the king? It can be seen that no matter where or in which class, such a thing as rules is just a tool for powerful people to hold people, in this case, why does she wait for others to handle it?
At least compared to her previous life, she has a husband and a son in this life. She already has a happiness worth fighting for.
"Then from today onwards, we'll have to get busy again."
The two of them hugged each other for a while, Yin Yu looked at the moonlight outside the window, and gently moved Xie Wan's shoulder.
"It's a roundworm in my belly!"
Xie Wan smiled, sat up, picked up the file in his hand and said.
"I've thought it all through. Yin Yao has been busy choosing a concubine recently, and I will keep an eye on this matter. Mr. Seven's business will naturally be handled by you. In addition, I also inquired that Xie Rong has not been idle these days, Xie Yun frequently interacts with the children of official households, judging by Xie Rong's temperament, there must be fraud in this. Just in case, I still want to get him out of the court. β
Yin Yu sat down and drank two sips of tea, and his face was so confident again. He took the file in his hand and looked at it, nodded and said, "I'll go find Jin Yong tomorrow and let him handle this matter." After speaking, he said: "Yin Yao's selection of concubines, Concubine Zheng will inevitably aim at the cabinet first, this kind of thing is still better informed among your daughters, if you have eyebrows, tell me." β
Xie Wan raised his eyebrows and said, "You want to ruin someone's marriage?" "It's not like him.
Yin Yu smiled: "Didn't you tell me not to be too obedient? After speaking, he pinched her face, but said with a straight face: "Just a bad marriage is too troublesome, if these people who can take the opportunity to promote the emperor can get two of them out by the way and knock them out, it will be called not a loss." Although it is not appropriate for the cabinet to change people at the moment, there is still a chance to take advantage of this matter to manipulate them. β
Xie Wan thought for a moment and nodded.
After talking to Yin Yu here, the couple has a bottom on the road ahead, and the weather in the palace is different.
Forcing the palace is just a last resort, not the most important thing at the moment, what matters is how to make the situation favorable to you when any accident happens. And all these major premises, first, we must always pay attention to the movements of the Qianqing Palace, and second, we must respond in a timely manner according to the situation of the court. Since the emperor was able to carefully cultivate so many enemies, how could he not be prepared?
rashly forced the palace, except for adding a major crime of disobedience to himself, he couldn't get anything else.
And at this time, the emperor is afraid that he is already waiting for Yin Yu to throw himself into the net, right? (To be continued.) )
