Chapter 626: It's not an old grudge, it's really a close friend
After the Son of Heaven endured his anger and anxiety and said goodbye "politely", Yu Feng did not stay in Ci'an Palace to spend more words, today's goal has been achieved, since the Empress Dowager has come forward to support the visit, the Son of Heaven is bound to "consider carefully", so he also followed the resignation, leaving the next time for the eldest princess and the empress dowager, the sister-in-law to gossip.
The Empress Dowager really complained about the absurdity of the queen again, and then talked about Yijing, and sighed again and again, for fear that the eldest princess would be worried, so she stopped in time and said that the Jiren had their own relief, believing that no bad news is good news, and Yijing will definitely return safely.
The Empress Dowager's words were actually just to make the eldest princess feel relieved, and she also believed that Yijing was really taken captive by the remnants, even if she was lucky enough to get out that day, it was very likely that she would fall off the cliff under the tracking, maybe she was washed away by the river, and there was no news for so long, so there should be no possibility of surviving.
She didn't want to watch Yu Feng marry the powerful next to her, and when she knew that Yu Feng had not given up the search and rescue of Yijing, the Empress Dowager was very pleased.
Different from today, the Empress Dowager knows Yu Feng's ability, and must not be underestimated, the first emperor had already planned to eradicate Jin Rongzhong, but he had no good solution, and even changed his mind, and wanted to attack Qin Huaiyu first, but Yu Feng pointed out sharply that to carry out the reform and revival of the official system, the resistance was in Jin Rongzhong, not Qin Huaiyu, and in terms of the situation at that time, Qin Huaiyu was weaker than Jin Rongzhong, and his actions were not so arrogant, so as not to endanger the people's livelihood, but not except for Jin Rongzhong, Xungui was bewitched and protected by it, but I was afraid that it would become more and more arrogant. Doing great things that bring harm to the people.
The first emperor thought that if he didn't make a decision, it would be difficult to uproot Jin Rongzhong's noble heart.
The Empress Dowager trusts the Su family, and she has always supported the marriage of the Su and Chu mansions, so she really doesn't want Yijing to encounter accidents, but if the result is unsatisfactory...... In the future, the princesses of the King of Chu must also come from the Weiguo Mansion or the Yan family.
It is precisely because of this plan that the Empress Dowager is even reluctant to send the Yan family's concubine into the palace as a concubine, and only uses a concubine to maintain the in-law relationship with the Son of Heaven.
But at this time, the life and death of Yijing were uncertain, and the Empress Dowager naturally would not mention this matter, and after chatting for a while, she only apologized for another thing: "I don't know who followed the saint to slander, and actually let Huang Tao go to the Jingwei Command Division, and also appointed a person from the three products to know, he is not allowed by the family, and has no filial piety, how can he be reused?" ”
The Empress Dowager actually didn't know that there was a mortal enmity between Huang Tao and the Weiguo Mansion, but she measured that the eldest princess didn't like the Huang family, and Huang Tao had already been expelled from the clan, so she guessed that the Weiguo Mansion was bound to alienate Huang Tao, and now ascended the throne and transferred Jianning Hou to an idle position, that is, standing at the court meeting, which was not taken seriously, the original acquaintance was Su Yi's cronies, and he was also transferred from Jingwei by the saint and installed his own cronies, the intention was obvious, this was to gradually weaken Su Yi's power, put him in the air, and finally let Huang Tao take over Jingwei, The Empress Dowager expressed her dissatisfaction, but she did not want to clash with the Son of Heaven at this time, and she did not want the throne to change hands unless she had to.
She was worried that the eldest princess would be dissatisfied, but at the same time, she also had a sense of temptation.
The eldest princess didn't care: "The Jingwei officials have great responsibilities, and they should be trusted ministers of the saint, if the saint can trust Huang Tao, even if he is in charge of the Jingwei." ”
The Empress Dowager was dissatisfied: "Just with Huang Tao, how can he be virtuous?" In the end, the saint is young, it is inevitable that he is impetuous, and when the first emperor was sick, he had many instructions, and the mourning family would remind the saint to be close to the virtuous ministers. "This is to tactfully tell the eldest princess that with her one day, the commander of Jingwei will not be replaced.
The eldest princess didn't answer, only a trace of doubt flew by, but she didn't have time to think about it.
She is really not worried about the Son of Heaven reusing Huang Tao, Jingwei since Emperor Taizong, it is the Su family in charge, the forbidden army's respect and belief in the Weiguo Mansion is by no means Huang Tao can defend, the Su family as the son of heaven, has never violated the loyalty of the courtiers for decades, even if the saint wants to transfer the eldest son, it is not enough to worry, Mo said that Huang Tao is not capable of serving the public, even if he has, the Su family does not think of rebellion, it is unnecessary to hold the forbidden army in his hands.
The momentum of the Patriotic Mansion is by no means only in charge of the forbidden army, even if he wants to suppress the Su family now, it is okay to just let go of the power, but if the saint is bewitched by others and wants to eradicate the Su family, so that he can teach people such as the Qin family to benefit from it and take over the power of the nobles, who will really wash his neck and wait for someone to cut it?
Let's see if the Son of Heaven has such a sharp knife that can push the Patriotic Mansion into a desperate situation.
However, on this day, the eldest princess still politely refused the empress dowager's hospitality: "I wore this outfit and sweated profusely, I just want to take it off as soon as possible and disturb the fifth sister-in-law another day." ”
The Empress Dowager originally wanted to ask a few words about the marriage of the six and seven ladies, but this time she had to give up.
The eldest princess returned to the Guogong Mansion, but heard that Yu Feng had been waiting for a while, and had just finished lunch under Su Xun's hospitality, so she hurriedly invited people to Yuanying Hall and ordered her to wait for dinner.
"I want to ask my grandmother how to deal with today's affairs." Yu Feng did not shy away from it.
The eldest princess understood that he was talking about the Huang family, and she was a little impatient: "Since the Holy Saint ascended the throne, she has begun to make trouble, and now that Huang Tao has been reused, she is becoming more and more arrogant, I want to take advantage of this opportunity to simply let her be grounded." ”
Although Yu Feng didn't regard the Huang family as his mother-in-law, he was still a junior in the end, and it was not easy to talk about the Huang family's words and deeds, so he pondered a little, and then said: "Grandmother, if this matter is just the idea of the queen sisters, it is not a matter of concern, but today the queen is involved in the saint in public, and the saint does not deny it. ”
Yu Feng thought that the queen of Qin was really inexplicable, and he had always regarded the Yijing sisters as a thorn in the eye and the object of comparison, always thinking of overwhelming people with power, Yu Feng had also heard that when the queen was still the fourth princess, he wanted to make it difficult and humiliate Yijing when he got the opportunity, in order to achieve his goal, he had long hooked up with the Huang family, and now he has become the queen, and the matter of supporting the Huang family is also the reason why she can use it for entertainment if she is idle and boring, as for Qin Ziruo, Yu Feng also thinks that if there is a sister, there must be a sister, in short, they are all "strange people" with unusual brains, The two of them probably didn't need any other reason to do it, just to have a good time.
But the Son of Heaven is not a person who inexplicably meddles in the back house of the courtiers, and it is impossible to force the eldest princess for the sake of the queen's anger, this matter is clearly the acquiescence of the Son of Heaven, and even his plan, which has to make people think deeply.
The eldest princess was reminded by Yu Feng, and she also felt a little weird, and her expression became cautious: "Isn't it that the Holy One wants to use the Huang family to take charge of the middle feed, and maliciously harm my family's life?" ”
"Grandmother should be on guard." Yu Feng is also on point.
"The Huang family doesn't have the ability to do that now." The eldest princess sneered: "Feng'er means that I don't want to startle the snake, let the Huang family and the queen have dealings, and see what she wants?" ”
Yu Feng understood that the eldest princess was also aware of the Son of Heaven's malice towards the Guogong Mansion, but some words were too early to say at this time, so she just said: "Grandmother, prevention is only for a while, if the tumor has already been born, eradication can fundamentally solve the problem." ”
The eldest princess frowned slightly, half loudly, and then smiled: "I understand, since the Huang family was reprimanded by the Queen Mother this time, why do you have to reflect for a while, after this paragraph, let her enter the palace to apologize." ”
Only based on the behavior of the Huang family, it is far from the level of divorce, although her backer Huang Tao is not afraid, but the saint behind Huang Tao has to let the eldest princess be cautious, at this time, even if the Guogong Mansion wants to divorce his wife, the heavenly family will not allow it, and furthermore, San Lang and Liu Niang are the biological children of the Huang family, which is also the eldest princess's concern, let her toss it, and when everyone sees that this is a tumor, it will be neat when the knife is made.
The eldest princess asked: "I am watching from the sidelines today, and the saint is still unwilling, but I am afraid that I will not easily let your father and son go to the domain." ”
Yu Feng said with a smile: "Of course, the saint thinks that I pleaded to go to the vassal this time with the intention of taking over the power, and of course he will not give the Chu Wangfu a chance to support the army in the future, so I have repeatedly emphasized that it is for the sake of the beautiful scenery, it was out of sincerity, but the saint does not trust, and it is precisely because of this that as long as the Chu Wangfu can be prevented from being out of the control of the imperial court, and the father is prevented from handing over the old ministry to me, and gradually establish my prestige, the saint can feel at ease." ”
"Feng'er is confident, as if she expects that the Quasi-Holy Lord will not disobey the will of the Empress Dowager." The eldest princess was quite puzzled, when the first emperor was in power, the empress dowager rarely asked about political affairs, why did she suddenly intervene in the matter of going to the domain this time, and the Son of Heaven still didn't seem to dare to refute?
"The Holy Filial Piety should carefully consider the Empress Dowager's points."
This sentence was obviously perfunctory, and the eldest princess didn't ask much.
Not long after Yu Feng returned home, Gu Yuwen came to visit, and Yu Feng still asked people to invite him into the study in the front yard, which was a lukewarm attitude.
But this time, Gray Du personally guarded outside the study, leaving the surplus.
"Below is the Holy Decree." After the salute, Gu Yuwen consciously sat on the main seat this time, side by side with the prince: "I want to congratulate the prince first, the saint has allowed to go to the domain, let the next door, it is really the first intention to meet the prince, the saint intends to order the prince to be the prince of Xian, and the son of the prince can go to the domain." ”
One mansion and two lords, the Son of Heaven can be described as a great grace to the father and son of the King of Chu, but as soon as it comes, the King of Chu will be firmly tied to Kyoto, and only Yu Feng will go to the domain, even if Yu Feng wants to support the army and respect himself, the court also has his father and grandmother as hostages, if Yu Feng ignores it, it is a veritable disloyalty and unfilial piety, the old cronies of the Chu Wangfu will not worship such a notorious generation, and all the people of the world and civil and military officials will also criticize it, how can Yu Feng have the name of the incident? Even if it is forced, it will lose people's hearts and be defeated.
The key is that the Son of Heaven thinks that the king of Chu will separate the father and son of the two places, and the king of Chu has no chance to transfer the authority at all, and Yu Feng is weak in Chuzhou, at most he can only subdue the soldiers of Chuzhou, and there is no way to reach out to other counties, as long as he is not given the opportunity to establish his authority, he is not afraid.
However, Gu Yuwen didn't think that when he was not as weak as the crown in front of him, he would be able to plan ahead of the rain, and he would plan to eradicate the Jin Party and revive the imperial examination.
Yu Feng raised the lamp and asked Gu Yu: "Thanks to Brother Gu's help, Feng, remember the great grace." ”
Entitle the king of Chu, and let Yu Feng go to the domain alone, of course, is from the mouth of Gu Yu, and the Son of Heaven will adopt it.
Gu Yuwen hurriedly got up: "If it weren't for the prince's planning, he would have been expelled from the academy due to impatience, and it would be difficult to have a place to live, let alone his current achievements, but it is just a matter of duty, and the prince should not be so grateful." ”
It turned out that Gu Yuwen was expelled that year, and was criticized by Wei Wangyong in public as "poor character", ridiculed by scholars, his reputation was ruined, he felt hopeless, regretful and discouraged, Yu Feng saw that he repented, and his character was not hopeless, but because his family was poor and the idea of getting ahead was too urgent, he was eager for quick success, so he had the heart to help, and took Gu Yuwen for his own use, helping him to intentionally get close to the four princes, and giving advice, and finally making Gu Yuwen a confidant of the four princes, which was originally Yu Feng's plan for a rainy day. It can be regarded as providing Gu Yuwen with a way out, but he never thought that the fourth prince would later install Gu Yuwen in Wei Ji's mansion, and it became the current situation by mistake.
Naturally, Gu Yuwen's "ex-wife" is just Yu Feng's old cloth, in fact, the orphan girl who was taken in by the second elder of the Gu family has already secretly married far away, and the one who is currently detained in the Son of Heaven Mansion, which is actually not related to Gu Yuwen, but Yu Feng's cronies, and the marriage letter is naturally also forged.
Yu Feng knew that he was suspicious and would not be gullible to others, so he deliberately arranged this handle, and it really worked.
If it weren't for King Qing's ascension to the throne, Gu Yuwen would have been his champion, and there was no need to hide it, the "ex-wife" was not afraid of having no chance to get out of martial arts, even if King Qing knew that Gu Yuwen was the eyes and ears of others, it didn't matter.
When Yu Feng first made this move, he was always cautious, and he really didn't expect it to be of great use.
had to delay the "ex-wife" for some more time, if the Son of Heaven did not force him to work hard, Yu Feng would find a way to let him die and return to Chuzhou to be worthy of a beloved, but if the Son of Heaven made up his mind to eradicate the "ex-wife" ...... Su and Chu, there was no need to get out, and it would only be a matter of three or two years.
"Before Brother Lao Gu returned to the palace, my father and I did not dare to disobey the king's grace, so we had to obey my orders." Yu Feng got up and helped Gu Yu to ask, his eyebrows slightly raised.
This seemed to be a little unwilling, and the Son of Heaven was bound to think that he had really caught the father and son of the King of Chu off guard.
"But the son of the world, although the saint accepted the words of the below, he also instructed the eunuch to pass on the Qin family's seven mothers, and the son of the world should be prepared." Gu Yuwen said again.
