Chapter 80: Undercurrents
After the court dispersed, the courtiers retreated, and Wei Wen and Zong Chuke entered the Weiyang Palace of Empress Wei.
After saluting, Wei Wen stood beside Zong Chuke, looked at Empress Wei behind the bead curtain and couldn't help but speak: "Niangniang Hua Qiantou Cheng is afraid that it is fraudulent, and now Niangniang let Hua Qian enter the pavilion, I am afraid that something is wrong." ”
Hearing this, Empress Wei's laughter came from behind the bead curtain and asked, "What's wrong?" What does Zong Xianggong think? ”
Zong Chuke heard Empress Wei's question, but his face did not change: "There is nothing wrong with the queen wanting Hua Qian to enter the cabinet, although Hua Qian was the former emperor's auxiliary minister, and he is related to the Su family by marriage. If the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs are three out of the Su Mansion, then the other seven are from the Hua family, even if Hua Qian does not really take refuge in the queen's mother, what does it matter, what we want is just the appearance of Hua Qian's refuge now. As long as Hua Qian took refuge in the queen's side, the hundred officials of the imperial court saw that the elders of the three dynasties of Hua Qian had already stood in line, and who else dared to talk nonsense. And Hua Qian is also giving sincerity to the queen, not so much that the Hua family and the Su family broke up, but that the Hua family and the Su family are taking this opportunity to show weakness to the queen. ”
Zong Chuke said and looked at the curtain of his eyes: "Today, Su Guangtao is impeached without saying anything, Su Yanyan is Shang Shuling is in charge of the entire Yushi Platform, if he says that Yushi wants to impeach his son, how can he not know." Now he just wants his son to hand over the authority of the ministry, and wants the queen to let him go. The queen doesn't have to take them into account at all now, what Niangniang has to think about now is how to use the prince incident to remove the emperor's vigilance, only if the emperor completely relies on Niangniang, Niangniang can control the military power of the capital and even the whole country. Now that the Su family can speak in the court, it is completely dependent on the emperor who is still using him, plus King Youxiang and Princess Taiping, if he loses these dependence, Su Yanyan is vulnerable. ”
After Zong Chuke finished speaking, he heard a continuous praise from behind the bead curtain: "Those who know me, Zong Xianggong is also." ”
Saying that, Empress Wei asked Wei Wen: "How is the marriage between Yu'er and the Hua family?" ”
Hearing this, Wei Wen said respectfully: "Everything is going according to plan, and now the two have passed Najib, and now they are waiting for the positive period." ”
"How's Yu'er's over there?" Empress Wei asked randomly.
Wei Wen smiled: "Don't worry, Yu'er has been well-behaved and obedient since she was a child, and her biological mother is still in the Wei family, so she will never dare to do anything that hurts the interests of the Wei family." Niangniang just rest assured. ”
Seeing that the things he ordered were all arranged, Empress Wei's voice raised slightly: "Remember to go to the Wu family when you have time, the marriage of Wu Yanxiu and Bao'er is also urgent." ”
Hearing this, Wei Wen was a little puzzled: "Why does Niangniang have to marry the princess to Wu Yanxiu, even if the princess does not marry Wu Yanxiu, Niangniang recruits a colt for her, who else dares to object?" ”
Originally, according to Queen Wei's meaning, the marriage between Princess An Le and Wu Yanxiu was as soon as possible, and it was best to get married this month, after all, it was not impossible to get married quickly after what happened.
But Wei Wen felt sorry for his niece, and Princess Anle didn't want to marry Wu Yanxiu, so he postponed the marriage again and again.
Wei Wen's words fell, but he heard Empress Wei say with a smile: "I'm forcing Chongjun, if Bao'er doesn't marry Wu Yanxiu, I don't know how long he will drag it out." Only when Bao'er marries into the martial family, Chongjun will be even more nervous, if he doesn't do it, how can I have a chance to clean up the Chen Tang royal family. Don't do anything anymore, don't think that I don't know if you drag this marriage, don't delay the Wei family's great cause because of such a trivial matter. ”
After saying that, Wei Hou didn't want to hear his brother's chatter anymore, so he said lazily: "Okay, let's go down if it's okay, the Su family and the Hua family will keep an eye on me during this time." ”
Wei Wen still wanted to speak, but when he heard this, he had to nod his head first, and retreated with Zong Chuke.
As soon as Wei Wen and Zong Chuke walked out of Weiyang Palace on their front feet, a little palace maid tiptoed to Funing Palace on their back feet.
Qin Guifei listened to what the little palace maid said, and asked the female official Huansha next to her to reward her with some silver and sent it out. Then he instructed the steward eunuch of Funing Palace: "Go, send someone out what the palace maid said just now, and remember not to leak the news." ”
The steward and the eunuch were commanded to go down.
There is already a storm in the harem, but the Su family's inner house is not so urgent at the moment.
Because of the orders of Su Yanyan and Mrs. Su, now the Su family is staying in the house except for the people who have to go out. Xiyuan was already grounded, and the martial family's grandmother looked at Shen Qingyin, and no one wanted to go there, so they simply didn't go out of Xiyuan. For a while, the Su family almost forgot about these two cousins.
Mainly Fahrenheit and the old lady, now they don't see guests and don't go out, and they don't want to ask about other things.
Su Yunjun sat in the room and looked at the post sent by Zhao Yingying.
Now that something like this has happened to the Su family, although everyone in the court saw the wind and steered, they were busy dissociating themselves from the Su family when they saw that the Su family had made a mistake and lost power. But Zhao Yingying is just a boudoir lady after all, and the Zhao family has made meritorious deeds on horseback, and she has never liked civil officials to fight with a pen. If it weren't for the fact that Zhao Yingying was now waiting to be married and couldn't leave the house, she would have rushed to the Su family with her maid and mother-in-law.
Su Yunjun put down the post and smiled and wrote a letter to Zhao Yingying, now she was afraid that she would not be able to go to Zhao's house to see her, but it also reassured Zhao Yingying that she was fine.
At noon, news came from outside that Su Guangtao had been implicated in nepotism, and the position of the secretary was dismissed. When Su Yunjun got the news, it was Su Zijin who came over to say it.
It turned out that in the early dynasty, the imperial history impeached Su Guangtao's subordinate officials for corruption and bribery, and Su Guangtao was implicated and should have been dismissed and investigated, but he didn't expect Zhongzong to directly remove Su Guangtao from his position and let him go home to reflect on himself, if the reflection is not good, he will never have to return to the court.
The official document of the recall arrived in the afternoon, and Su Zijin got the letter at noon.
She only learned about it when she met Lu Yuanjin in the outer courtyard, so she hurriedly ran to discuss it with Su Yunjun.
Su Yunjun was relieved to see Sister A panic like this. Now that the Su family is weaker, the better it is, if the Su family falls, it will be revealed that the Chen Tang royal family is supported by the Su family. Su Guangtao is now only dismissed, and he has not been imprisoned or punished, which is the best for Su Yunjun.
And the functional recall can be restored, as long as you avoid the edge now, don't become a victim of the Chen Tang royal family and Empress Wei's fighting methods.
What Su Yunjun didn't expect was that Lu Yuanjin actually came to the Su family because of this incident, in fact, according to the current situation, he should maintain a relationship with the Su family, otherwise his father Lu Huaishen will be implicated.
Because of one thing after another, the family affairs between Hua and Su Guangtao that Hua and Su Guangtao looked at each other for Su Zijin were also stranded.
Looking at the wind outside, Mama Wu in the West Garden drank the tea poured by Shen Qingyin, and a cold glint burst out in her eyes: "Now that the Su family is overwhelmed with internal and external troubles, Miss Shen must not forget the instructions of the queen's mother, it's time to do it." ”
Hearing this, Shen Qingyin's hand trembled slightly, and then said softly: "It's Mama, Qingyin doesn't dare to forget." ”
Saying that, Mama Wu put down the tea cup in her hand: "Then tonight, Miss Shen will take the pair of shoes embroidered for Mrs. Su and go to say goodbye to the old lady." ”
Shen Qingyin nodded, and there seemed to be no objection to Mama Wu's words.
