Chapter 394: Success in the Eyes of Others
After bidding farewell from Prime Minister Feng's request for revenge, Zhang Heng gathered a group of confidants and ministers who were ready to go to the emperor to advise him.
Feng Qiufu also sent his henchmen to Concubine Qin's side, listening to him at any time and doing things. Feng Qiufu thought about the scene when he left that day, and added a few sets of jewelry and sent them to Concubine Qin, the plan was going in the direction he planned, and Feng Qiufu felt a little calmer.
At the time of the two teas, Qi Qianshu also said that he had nothing to say, and left in a hurry after expressing his attitude to Yan Yu and proving his resoluteness.
Yan Yu seems to have loosened up, as long as the forces of Shushan are still on his side at this time, at least Jiangguo will not be in chaos, and he will no longer consider these troublesome things. walked to the courtyard and accompanied Meng Changqing to tease Chengyun and buns.
"Huang'er, call your father the emperor's ......" Yan Yu hugged the child and said teasingly.
It's a pity that the child is still too young, and he has been eating with his other hand with his little hand, who doesn't care if Yan Yu is his father or a cat or a dog. Yan Yu, who was ignored, didn't care, looking at this little face was seven or eight points similar to Feng Huali, he was happy, and it didn't matter if he was a prince or a princess, as long as Yan Yu was like Feng Huali, he was happy.
"Your Majesty, several cabinet ministers ask to see me." The guard at the door suddenly approached, knelt down and said.
"Take it to the study!"
"Yes!" The guard replied and bowed back, only to straighten up and turn away until he was out the door.
"Hua Li, you pay attention to safety recently." Yan Yu said a word to Feng Huali, got up and was about to leave.
Feng Huali didn't care, she hadn't been afraid of anyone when she was in bad health before, but it was good to practice her skills again, and later in order to save Yan Yu, her foundation was damaged and she couldn't practice martial arts, but she still had medical skills, and there were such and such masters around her to give Yan Yu a secret guard. In fact, she was not afraid at all in her heart, her heart was all on Yan Yu's body.
What are the cabinet ministers doing at this time? Feng Huali was a little worried about the 500,000 troops on the border, she actually believed in Rong You, but the number of 500,000 made Jiang Guo feel pressured.
Feng Huali didn't want to make trouble for himself, so he quietly took out the medical skills that Bai Qiancheng gave him and studied them quietly. Meng Changqing also chatted with Yuedi from time to time, or Meng Changqing helped Yuedi do some heavier work.
In the study here, Yan Yu looked at the officials headed by Zhang Heng, and Yan Yu already knew what they were coming to. But when it comes to the competition with scholars and the investigation of the cause of Empress Dowager Rong Yi's death, Yan Yu wanted to play with them, and he even washed their movements to be bigger, so that he could give Rong You an explanation about the cause of Empress Dowager Rong Yi's death within the time agreed with Rong You.
In this way, the alliance between the Onishi Dynasty and the Hidden Kingdom will break down, and the Jiang Kingdom will have another chance to breathe.
Yan Yu was silent, reviewing official documents and folds while studying the topography of the border on the table. As for what the next officials say and how they act, Yan Yu has a look that I can't see at all and ignore it, but you have to continue your attitude.
Finally, after a long silence. Yan Yu asked, "Then what do you want?" ”
Several people looked at each other, but they didn't expect things to be so simple. "Your Majesty, the lower officials all feel that it is inappropriate for the mother to serve in Dali Temple."
"How? Say the result. Yan Yu was impatient.
"The lower official implores the emperor to abolish Niangniang's position in Dali Temple."
Want to test your bottom line? It's a pity how can it be so easy, Yan Yu thought about it while continuing to make his own border retreat strategy on paper.
"Have you ever heard the phrase 'you have no jokes'? The decree that was established will be repealed in a few months, do you think that if you don't want to obey the decree in the future, you will have to write to me to repeal it? Do you remember the duty of a courtier? Yan Yu finished speaking, and raised his eyes to look at Zhang Heng.
Zhang Heng didn't know what to respond to for a while, it was he who relaxed his vigilance, and the emperor's reply just now made him think that the emperor also wanted to abolish Concubine Shuniang's official position in Dali Temple, but he didn't expect that he would give the emperor his head and tail so soon.
Now he will be passive, but if he goes back like this today, he will not only be the lady concubine if he doesn't let him go tomorrow.
"Your Majesty, the ministers deserve death. It's just that the emperor's ministers are also for the emperor, for the sake of the country, the concubine has two princes, and now she is serving in Dali Temple, and her high power is second only to the emperor. I still remember that when the first emperor was located in the emperor, he issued an edict to give the concubine Niangniang a burial, but he was also afraid that the mother and son would be weak, how could the emperor bear to be the second concubine? The old minister who said it burst into tears.
Yan Yu frowned, he and Hua Li were different from the emperor and the concubine, their relationship was not enough for outsiders. But she also didn't want Hua to be said to steal the country and harm the people in the future. It seems that Hua Li still has to be prepared. However, these old people talked about the emperor with great effort.
"What Zhong Aiqing said is also reasonable, since this is the case, the eldest son of me and Concubine Shu will be canonized as the crown prince, Concubine Shu will return to the palace for the time being, and Concubine Shu will temporarily replace the position of Concubine Shu in Dali Temple."
Zhang Heng breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Feng Hua was not in Dali Temple, but this temporary generation made him a little uneasy, that is, there is a chance to come back in the future?
"Your Majesty, it's not appropriate for the mother to be replaced for the time being..."
"Your Majesty, the heirs of the harem are thin..."
The two old ministers who were talking at the same time glanced at each other, and then lowered their heads, looking extremely embarrassed. They appear too eager, and the target is too obvious.
Yan Yu sneered lightly: "You can't tell me if I ask you about the best way to govern the country, and your eyes are always on my harem." That's how you are a courtier? ”
“·······” No one dared to answer.
Yan Yu didn't say anything to continue the matter at hand, he had the patience to listen to their true intentions, and he also had the patience to fulfill them. It's nothing more than supporting a concubine in the harem, and the best candidate is just Concubine Qin, who has some foundations. Thinking of this, the corners of Yan Yu's lips hooked slightly, they didn't know how much life Concubine Qin had left him.
After a period of silence, Zhang Heng, who knelt with a sore knee, replied: "The emperor's imperial power is the emperor's imperial power, and the courtiers of course take the monarch as the key, but the concubine is dominant in the harem and is also quite influential in the previous dynasty, which is not conducive to the little prince and the prince in the future..." After speaking, he led the officials under him very religiously to bow three times and bow nine times.
Yan Yu thought to himself that this imperial power was of course the imperial power of the Heavenly Family, but the power was still in his hands, and he couldn't let their waste come to show it in front of his eyes.
"What do the ministers think?" Yan Yu put down the red pen in his hand and looked at them.
A few people didn't dare to say anything when they came to their mouths, and there was silence in the study for a while. Yan Yu looked at the turquoise willows outside, and thought to himself that if everything in the DPRK and China was settled, and then he could still grab this year's wheat on the border, so that being stationed at the border could consume them for a winter, then 500,000 was not too much of a threat, just a few words.
Yan Yu smiled when he thought of this, and several ministers kneeling on the ground suddenly felt the breeze blowing on their faces, is the emperor in a good mood?
Zhang Heng hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, why don't you just use Concubine Qin?" Concubine Qin herself is also a noble woman, even if there is a mistake, Yu Gong has also punished her slightly, and it makes sense in private reason. ”
"Just do as you say." Yan Yu glanced down at him, as if saying that the weather was good today.
Zhang Heng didn't move after watching the emperor finish speaking, and was ready to urge the "emperor····· again"
Yan Yu's impatient pen nodded at the eunuch who was waiting beside him and asked him to write the will on his behalf.
The matter was settled so smoothly, Zhang Heng happily took a few officials under the head to continue the celebration at the prime minister's house, and also reported the good news to the prime minister by the way.
But when Zhang Heng stood at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he was told by his subordinates that the Prime Minister was not in the mansion, and told him that Master Zhang's heart was good and that he didn't have to communicate much, so as not to be caught.
Zhang Heng was not open-minded in his dealings, and he left without saying much when he heard it, and this celebration banquet was stopped.
The white-faced scholar entered the palace from the prime minister's mansion again, and it was close to night at this time. The white-faced scholar came to the residence of the show girl where Concubine Qin still lived, there was no one in the house, it seemed that he had gone to the imperial study to receive the order, and he was not in a hurry to sit down, and an inconspicuous little eunuch served him tea.
The white-faced scholar held the teacup and looked at the furnishings in the house, she had no savings for so many years as a concubine, and as soon as she fell from a high position, she became unable to hide it, and he helped her last time.
Speaking of the daughter of a nobleman, Concubine Qin was originally just a concubine's daughter, and over the years she had posted a lot of money and benefits to the family for her aunt, but now she is just a beautiful scenery in front of people.
If she can't recover, the hardest thing she can do is her own mother, that aunt.
Thinking about it, Concubine Qin had already returned, and her face was a little embarrassed when she saw the white-faced scholar staring at the furnishings in her room.
"What do you see those? But something outside of the body. Concubine Qin sat down next to the scholar.
The white-faced scholar turned his head to look at her: "It's these mundane things that have caused you a lot, why should you and I ·····?"
"Heh~~~ It's just the scenery in front of people, and you don't see much of the down-and-out look." Concubine Qin's head rested slightly on the scholar's shoulder.
She just lives in the eyes of others as rich and glorious, and she is actually down.
