It has been many days in a row, Yu Feng did not "sleep" in the Yue family every day, this day out of the palace, he still went straight back to the palace, followed by Wei Ran and Gray Du who did not leave an inch with a solemn face, Qingtian only listened to the report, and the council was "martial law", except for a few henchmen and guards, all the maids and servants were sent away, and they were thinking about going to the main gate to meet them, and they saw the prince and his party enter the courtyard gate.

This time, I didn't even invite my colleagues to come with me.

It was already summer, and the golden crow in the sky was gradually becoming a little dazzling, at this time, even if the door was closed and the windows were closed, the hall did not look dull, but Yu Feng stopped the move of Gray Du to close the door, and only beckoned him to come to the front with Wei Ran, one left and one right, and sat down side by side.

"The Empress Dowager wants to edict the King of Liao to return to Beijing, on the surface, first, to question the Qin detention case, and secondly, the King of Liao has also reached the time to marry a concubine."

Yu Feng's words did not make Gray Du's expression change, but Wei Ran raised his eyebrows.

"Isn't the Qin detention case already concluded?" He couldn't help but ask.

"The trial is over in the saint, but the empress dowager may not be here, digging deep from Qin detaining a person, there are many Qin clan people who are afraid that they will all have to be involved, this person can be placed by the Son of Heaven to go to Guangning Prefecture to supervise the King of Liao, it is bound to be very favored by Qin Xiang, it seems that Qin Jieyu in the palace is not Qin believes in it."

Qin Jieyu is only a distant clansman, but her cousin is the son of Qin Xiang who is very fond of her, and it is because of this that she is lucky to enter the palace.

Only a few days ago, according to Gu Yuwen's feedback, the Son of Heaven had edicted Chen Xiang to ask him how to deal with the King of Liao, at that time Qin Xiang was also on the side, Gu Yuwen was reminded of Yu Feng's "reform", and then refused to speculate on the Sacred Heart to cater to the will of the Lord, but advised - Qin detention and corruption is conclusive evidence, on the Liao King has the right to deal with it, the Holy Lord has already convicted Qin, it is not beneficial to pursue the King of Liao, the King of Liao is the vassal king of the first emperor, and the Empress Dowager is very defending, if the Holy Lord investigates afterwards, I am afraid that the Empress Dowager will be dissatisfied, "misunderstanding" The saint deliberately harmed his siblings, and the grandparents and grandchildren were more suspicious.

The Qin detention wanted to prosecute the Liao King and the Duke of Wei Guo for colluding to protect themselves, and jumped up and down in Guangning Prefecture to buy the "criminal evidence", so that the King of Liao was greatly panicked, and actually executed Qin Jian simply, so as not to affect himself again, and Qin Detaine's plan failed, but in the eyes of the Son of Heaven and the Qin Xiang, it undoubtedly became the appearance of the collusion between the King of Liao and the Duke of Weiguo.

In order to protect the Qin minister, the Son of Heaven had no choice but to end the Qin detention case, but the suspicion of the King of Liao had already taken root.

Qin Xiang hated the King of Liao even more for killing his people, and wanted to frame him, and had regarded the King of Liao as a great calamity and did not get rid of the unhappiness, so he made a lot of greedy rumors in the back, instigating the Son of Heaven to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots.

Chen Xiang originally didn't care about the King of Liao, but he was afraid that he would be secretly used by Qin Huaiyu again, so he also followed the proposal and advised the Son of Heaven to think twice.

According to Gu Yuwen's words, the Son of Heaven was extremely uncertain at that time, and he was not impatient with Gu and Chen Erchen's advice at all, but although Qin Xiang on the side was silent, there was a hint of triumph between his eyebrows.

Only said at this time, Wei Ran thought of what Gu Yuwen said that day, and combined it with Yu Feng's words today, and was very excited: "When the first emperor was seriously ill, he personally crowned the king of Liao and chose to go to the domain, and when he was dying, although he saw that the saint promised to take the throne, he had the intention of not leaving a written edict, and promised the power of the empress dowager to supervise the government, which seems to show that the first emperor was not completely at ease with the saint inheriting the throne, and the king of Liao was young, and Xu also had shortcomings, it is very likely that the empress dowager will supervise the government for several years, and the king of Liao will gradually become more powerful, and then see who is more suitable to rule the world between him and the saint, The saint must have this guessing heart, otherwise he would not have violated the order of the first emperor and repeatedly delayed the king of Liao to go to the domain. ”

Wei Ran took a deep breath: "This time in the Qin detention case, the Son of Heaven has already moved to kill the King of Liao, and at this time, the Empress Dowager ordered the King of Liao to return to Beijing, and the Son of Heaven is even more uneasy. ”

The Empress Dowager is most afraid of the Son of Heaven ruthlessly cruel and cruel siblings, otherwise he would not have spared the King of Liao to go to the domain, prompting the Son of Heaven to pardon the sixth and seventy-two kings and let Yu Feng go to Chu by the way, as long as the King of Liao died, and the crime of the Son of Heaven killing his brother was conclusive, it would undoubtedly make the Empress Dowager make up her mind because of despair.

Yu Feng frowned when he heard this: "The second brother's suggestion is to let me do it?" ”

"It's a perfect time." Wei Ran couldn't help but hold on to a few cases.

"No." Yu Feng shook his head: "The first emperor cared for the King of Liao very much, and I also have an old friendship with the King of Liao......"

Wei Ran was stunned, he didn't know that Yu Feng had obeyed the King of Liao, but he insisted: "Forgive me for speaking bluntly, if you want to achieve great things, you shouldn't be kind to a woman, what is the intention of the Empress Dowager to return to Beijing at this time?" If the Empress Dowager really wants to let the King of Liao take the throne in her place, wouldn't the prince's many plans come to naught? ”

Gray Du has always only known how to act according to orders, and is not good at making suggestions, but when he heard Wei Ran speak so bluntly, he was very nervous, and he was not sure who was more reasonable, so he only widened his eyes and clenched his fists, and suddenly looked at Wei Ran, and then at Yu Feng, who was still groaning.

Wei Ran was very anxious about Yu Feng's indecision: "Lord Wang, although the King of Liao has no suspicion with Su and Chu at the moment, it is difficult to keep the throne and after the Ninth Five-Year Plan, he will resist and suppress again. ”

Yu Feng shook his head: "Even if it is to seize power, you should do something, do not do something, not to make you live and die, for potential threats are all ended with killing, if the King of Liao intends to be in the ninety-five, then in the future I am not afraid of a showdown with him, if he has a conspiracy, I may not be able to be calculated by him, in short, everything is not yet clear, you can't just look at him to die in the assassination today, the first emperor is me, there is really the grace and respect of the elder, the king of Liao is the flesh and blood of the first emperor, and there is no malice towards Su and Chu at the moment, I don't want to see him die of trickery and sit idly by. ”

"The King of Liao really respected the prince back then, and his friendship was not mixed with the desire for power." Gray Du easily interjected.

Yu Feng bowed: "In fact, the reason why the first emperor did not directly hand over the throne to the king of Liao should also be worried that his character is too pure and gentle, and the emperor that Dalong needs at the moment is far from being the king of Shoucheng, in contrast, although the first emperor is worried that the current will be heavy on his relatives and lead to an imbalance of power and tyrannical power, he still thinks that this is more suitable for the current situation than the king of Liao." ”

As he spoke, he stood up, wandered a few steps, and shook his head again: "Of course, the first emperor expected the King of Liao to grow older and better, and he should have instructed the Empress Dowager to give more opportunities for the King of Liao to experience, but the King of Liao has been to the domain for two years, and the small Guangning Prefecture is incapable of governing Anping. It is difficult for the King of Liao to ensure that he will not be held accountable by the Son of Heaven, and this practice is really naïve and shallow. ”

Wei Ran also agreed, the King of Liao did not have the authority of the vassal king in Guangning Prefecture, and he did not wait for the order of the Son of Heaven to execute Qin Jian rashly, if it were not for the fact that the Weiguo Mansion had collected conclusive evidence of the crime, the King of Liao was very likely to get into trouble, that is, now, although the Son of Heaven had ordered not to be investigated, he had already moved to kill the King of Liao, and the King of Liao could not even protect himself.

I also listened to Yu Feng's analysis: "The King of Liao is not a grandson, and the Holy Emperor has no written edict to be located in him, if he wants to replace the present, it all depends on the decision of the Empress Dowager, but the Empress Dowager should not be optimistic about him, first, the power of the Liao Wang's mother family is not obvious, even if he ascends the throne in the future, he will have to rely on the assistance of Quan Xun, the Empress Dowager is only afraid that the Liao King will not be able to obey the public, and will become a puppet in the future, and if the Liao King ascends the throne, he may not agree with the Empress Dowager to supervise the government, or in order to cultivate his own power, he will reuse his relatives, is it not the same mistake again? ”

But if the blessed king ascends the throne, the benefits are threefold.

First, King Fu is just a child, and the Empress Dowager is justified in supervising the government. Yu Feng believes that the Empress Dowager is not as good as the Kong family back then, although she has selfish desires, she should still focus on the monarchy, in short, it is impossible to teach the Ninety-Five to be cowardly and incompetent, in order to manipulate the emperor by her or the Yan family alone. It takes time for King Fu to grow, and as long as ten years, with the cooperation of the two governments of Su and Chu, the military reform will be effective.

Second, Yu Feng knew that the emperor's eldest grandson during the reign of the emperor was also the current prince's bloodline, and he must not admit it, and King Fu is the upright emperor's eldest grandson, once the empress dowager is determined to abolish the throne, it will inevitably make the name of "usurpation" in the present, Prince Shunzheng, that is, the first king of Fu, was poisoned for the present to be made public, and his son King Fu succeeded to the throne in the name of the emperor's eldest grandson is enough to convince the public, which can avoid the sons of the first emperor from having disputes in vain.

Third, it is also the key, the Empress Dowager especially trusts the Weiguo Mansion is the Fu Wang's foreign family, and is bound to be loyal to assist, although the Chu Wangfu and the Weiguo Mansion have a good relationship by marriage, but once it touches the Fu Wang, the Weiguo Mansion will be biased in public and private, which is also to the greatest extent, so that the Empress Dowager is at ease, and does not worry about the Su and Chu Mansions through military reform to join hands to seize the power of the emperor and set up the power of the emperor.

As long as the future planning is appropriate, Yu Feng is very sure that he can win the trust of the empress dowager and help the king to ascend to the Ninth Five-Year Plan, so as to ensure the balance of many powerful forces to the greatest extent, and not let the emperor's power fall aside, and the important ministers steal the country and force the king.

As long as the king of Liao has no ambition to usurp power, Yu Feng has no intention of killing him, even if the king of Liao has that ambition, Yu Feng is not afraid to fight with him.

The odds of victory are many in his hands, and in the final analysis, the King of Liao, who can't even protect himself, is not to be feared.

"Second brother, I will hand over this matter to you, you immediately go to Guangning, remember, it is necessary to ensure that the King of Liao returns to Beijing safely, if there are thieves who want to kill the King of Liao, they will try their best to capture the mouth." After Yu Feng finished speaking, he threw Wei Ran a Tiancha order: "With this order, all the Liaodi Tiancha guards can be dispatched by you, and you can also use the Wuyi Alliance to assist." ”

Yu Feng made a decision here, and Wei Ran had no doubts, and immediately set off to Liao with a token, but when Yu Feng slowly drank a cup of tea and stepped out of the meeting hall, he saw the clear sky thief waiting outside the courtyard with a "wicked smile" on his face, and before he could say anything, he said "hehe" twice: "Prince, guess, who is taking a walk in the vestibule?" ”

This is in Guan Sui Yuan, who else can come in and stroll leisurely without being stopped by the clear sky, but with a thief smile on his face?

Yu Feng didn't answer, only grabbed the first two steps and went out, and when he bypassed the fake stone screen, he saw a melancholy beautiful scene walking slowly on the Meilin Trail, why did the princess come back?

When he met him, a smile rolled into his lips.

Yijing lowered his face, looked at his feet, and suddenly saw a pair of blue and black moire brocade boots in his sight, and a corner of the purple robe dyed with the May sun, and before he could raise his eyes, he heard that the voice was as clear as water: "The princess is so interested." ”

But she was obviously anxious and full of worries.

So he glanced at him: "Grandmother called me back." ”

"There are no flowers to appreciate in Merlin this season, why did you come to Guan Sui Garden?" The prince stretched out his hand and blocked the already scorching light: "Isn't the princess guilty of lovesickness because she hasn't seen me these days?" ”

Yijing stretched out his hand to fight, of course, without strength, he was easily caught by the prince, and the two worked side by side.

"It's not been peaceful lately, and I know you're busy with business." Yijing was still worried, and didn't pay attention to the melancholy hidden in Yu Feng's smile.

The two went up to the high pavilion on the fake stone and sat snuggling.

Yijing then talked about the old princess's earlier words: "Qin Xiang's birthday banquet, I don't plan to attend, the Hengzhu State Mansion has already signaled, there is no idea to go to the invitation, but my grandmother wants to attend, and insists on bringing Qin Ziruo with me, I have persuaded for a long time today, my grandmother insisted on this, saying that she couldn't stand Mrs. Qin and Qin Ziruo's mother and daughter to treat her as an old fool and deceive her, and wanted to make Qin Ziruo ugly, but in this way, the world will inevitably laugh at grandmother for being deceived and used, and the empress dowager is afraid that she will also complain and blame, I really don't want my grandmother to be talked about, and the prince should persuade my grandmother, and the empress dowager is also extremely disgusted with Qin Ziruo at the moment, even if she doesn't add fuel to the fire, there is no big problem. ”

Yu Feng shook his head: "I haven't persuaded anywhere, but I can't persuade it, grandmother was provoked by the Qin family this time, I have to go out in person, or let her old man vent her evil anger, don't care too much, don't care too much about those people's words, as long as grandmother is happy, and grandmother is not completely unprepared, didn't she also invite Concubine Shou and Pingle, Qin Xiang's birthday banquet can be lively, but unfortunately in order to make a stand, we can't even watch from the sidelines." ”

A very regretful sigh, which naturally attracted a sneer from the princess, Yu Feng smiled and approached the fragrant sideburns: "The princess came to invite me in person today, and I had to ignore the matter, and go to Guan Sui Yuan with the princess, there is still half a day and a night, how about comforting the princess's lovesickness?" ”
