At seven o'clock in the morning, Chengming Palace.

As usual, the court discussed, and the civil and military officials stood in the main hall.

The prince is at the head of the hundred officials.

Because of discussing the matter of "netting" with the three old ministers last night, Yingba did not rest well.

The eunuch of the inner palace, Heifu, sang loudly:

"If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat."

Except for some routine tax and military affairs, no one has played any more of them.

Seeing this, the prince smiled and said:

"Report to the monarch's father, there is no more civil and military officials, my Qin country is clear in Haiyan River, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, this is a sign of a great country."

Yingdang's face was agitated when he said this, and he looked excited and excited.

When Yingba heard this, he felt helpless in his heart.

The Haiyan River is still clear, living and working in peace and contentment, and there is still a net watching in the dark of Qin State who does not know friends and enemies.

If you don't figure out where the net comes from, where will the Haiyan River come from and live and work in peace and contentment.

However, the son of the world is also out of kindness, no matter how depressed Yingba is.

also responded with a forced smile:

"It's thanks to the hard work of all the important ministers."

Hearing this, the civil and military officials saluted in unison and said:

"Relying on the wisdom of the Emperor and the Divine Warriors, I have my Qin Kingdom today."

After some greetings and politeness, and the harmony between the monarchs and ministers, the court discussion was dispersed.

Yingba, accompanied by the eunuch Heifu of the inner palace, went to the dormitory.

This morning, it seems that he has no intention of reviewing the recital.

After the gentleman walked away, the civil and military officials did not disperse.

Instead, they gathered outside the Chengming Hall to talk.

"Ministers, have you heard, yesterday many well-known young generals in the army went to the third prince as guests."

"I know about this, and it is said that there are also Wang Ben, the son of General Wang Qian, and Meng Tian, the grandson of General Meng Fei."

"Besides, I've inquired, and there are twelve of them! The rising stars in the army over the years, the future generals, are all gone. ”

"Is that true? But why didn't they go to the prince of the world, but to the third son? ”

"I'm also puzzled, could it be that they also like dogs and horses like the third son, it can really be said that people gather like people in groups."

"Hugh wants to talk nonsense, what kind of person can the grandson of General Meng Fu and the son of General Wang Jian be?

In my humble opinion, I am afraid that the third prince is very charismatic, debauched, and polite to everyone, and everyone has no pressure to get along with the third son. ”

Ministers, you and I are talking word by word.

Seeing that the prince of the world had left the Chengming Palace, everyone changed the topic again.

Talking about the shortcomings of the parents, talking about the pleasures.

However, their previous conversation, the prince who overheard it in the Chengming Hall heard it clearly.

Yingdang was calm and calm on the surface, but his heart was full of anger, and he went back to the Shizi Mansion angrily.

Doctor Gan Long saw the heart of the prince and quietly followed him to the prince's mansion.

After entering the Shizi Mansion, Yingdang no longer concealed his heart and completely exploded.

He lifted the wooden case and smashed it for a while, venting the anger in his heart.

"What kind of ecstasy soup did this idle, greedy and lustful Yingtian pour into them?"

"Shizi! Throwing things in anger is the difference with a horseman? ”

Suddenly, a majestic rebuke sounded in the Shizi Mansion.

Yingdang looked sideways and found that the person who came was actually the prime minister of the dynasty, and he was also the head of the prince (chief teacher) Gan Long.

Gan Long was the axis figure of the old aristocracy, the leader of the clan and the restoration of the old law, and the sober conservative leader of the Qin state.

The prestige is so high and the power is so great that even today's Qin Hou has to give three points of thin face.

As the head of the world, he is strict with his teacher, and implements his own concept of limited change into the heart of the son.

Yingdang grew up under his teaching since he was a child, and he was afraid of Gan Long's nine points of respect, but he was very afraid of another teacher, Shang Ying.

Gan Long walked into the palace, and according to the weekly rites, the worship should be in the order of the first monarch and the minister, and then the eldest and youngest.

He bowed and saluted respectfully to Yingdang:

"Chen Ganlong, meet the prince!"

Shizi Yingdang tidied up his clothes, and he also respectfully returned the salute:

"The student has seen the master."

After the salute, Gan Long spoke:

"Shizi, so angry, but because of what happened in the third prince's mansion last night?"

"Master, where is the student worse than that Yingtian? Why did the young soldiers and the generals go to him? ”

Hearing this, Gan Long stroked his white beard, and he said with a smile:

"If this is the case, then the son of the world does not need to worry at all."

"Master, why do you say this?"

"They just want to make a career and get rid of the blessings of their ancestors.

The army warriors are short-sighted and only want to be quick for a while. ”

Yingdang was even more puzzled when he heard this, and he asked:

"If that's the case, then they should come and join the students.

As long as the students want, what official position can't be asked for by the monarch for them? ”

Gan Long just smiled when he heard this, he shook his head lightly, and said:

"Shizi, you are now a fan of the authorities, you might as well think about it from the perspective of others."

Gan Long's words woke up the dreamer.

Yingdang suddenly saw the moon through the clouds and mist.

After thinking about it, he quickly figured out the reason: they wanted to follow the third prince to the domain and make real achievements, not the official position given by the son of this world, dragging down the officialdom.

Seeing that the prince was enlightened, Gan Long nodded with satisfaction.

"Everyone in the world knows that the third prince is a gentleman, willing to fall, and dislike Qin Hou.

You should pay more attention to the fourth son, Yingji, and don't forget that Yingji's mother is the eldest lady of the monarch. ”

The prince suddenly realized, his mouth suddenly opened, and he felt comfortable.

After a long time, he smiled and said:

"I see, I thought that the third child of my family was really better than this son."

Gan Long heard the words and reprimanded solemnly:

"Shizi, before you become the next Qin Hou, don't despise anyone, although the third prince is a waste material, it is easy to control, your right master (second master) Shang Ying can be worried about it."

"The students understand, but in Yongcheng, there are not so many sons of the domain, why do they only worship the three princes? My fourth brother Yingji has grown up as a watch. ”

"This point, the old minister doesn't quite understand, he can only guess that the third son's drunken and dreamy and self-depraved behavior must be somewhat hidden, as for the specific reason, it will be investigated slowly."

Shizi Yingdang immediately calmed down when he heard this.

He pondered for a moment, then spoke:

"Master, the students have something to ask for."

"Shizi, you and I are one faction, but it doesn't hurt to say it, the old minister must do his best!"

Yingdang's expression was majestic, and he said in a deep voice:

"Master, you are highly respected in the court, and the student wants you to inform the old nobles and ministers of the family, urging the third child to become a vassal as soon as possible, and as for the fourth child of my family, slowly suppress it."

"The old minister understands!"

After receiving the order, the doctor Gan Long immediately set off to start arranging.

Looking at the back of the master leaving, Yingdang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he whispered to himself:

"No matter what you hide, as long as you leave the sight of the monarch, it will be difficult to threaten the son of this world!"

…………

The prince is secretly planning here, and the fourth prince is also talking in secret.

Marquis Wei Ran is working with the fourth prince Yingji, analyzing the current situation.

"Childe, now that there is such a thing as the third son, it is a great blessing for us!"

The fourth prince Yingji couldn't help but wonder when he heard this, and he opened his mouth and asked:

"The young soldier and the general were all taken under the door by the third son, how can I say that I am lucky?"

Marquis Wei Ran opened his mouth and explained:

"The fourth prince, Ruori Laochen followed the monarch and secretly went to the third prince's mansion, and secretly observed that the third prince Yingtian is not what the world rumores, but a person who hides very deeply and the city is very deep."

The fourth prince Yingji frowned, and said in a deep voice:

"Nephew, I'm still wondering that the third brother can compete with the son, but he is willing to fall, so does my uncle know what the third brother thinks?"

Marquis Wei Ran's face turned red:

"Even if the old minister has read countless people, he claims to be shrewd, and forgives the old minister for his incompetence, your third brother's thoughts are not guessing.

You say that he is drunk and dreams of death, and he has a lot of prestige among the young generation, and you say that he has a deep city, but he does not win over party henchmen and does not associate with any ministers.

However, one thing Lao Chen can be sure of, as long as the third child is not in Yongcheng, he will not pose a threat to you.

There is always only one opponent, and that is the son. ”

"Now that there is a disturbance about the third son, the prince must be in a hurry."

"The attention of the prince is currently on the third prince, which is just convenient for us to expand the party!"

"In today's court, the Shizi faction is more than 30 people from the old family and the old nobles headed by Gan Long."

"And with the support of the old man, there are more than 20 people in your nephew's faction."

"As for your third brother, he has no one to help protect him, and there are only a dozen low-spoken petty officials in the court, and those petty officials only know him by drinking flower wine."

Listening to her uncle Wei Ran's words, Yingji asked:

"Daliang Zao, Zhang Yi, rhino head Gongsun Yan, and Shang Jun, which three factions are these three?"

Wei Ran said with a smile:

"Fourth, Zhang Yi and the rhino capital are very shrewd, and they are well versed in the way of self-preservation......"

Yingji nodded knowingly: "Before the dust settles, the two old foxes of them will not bet." ”

Wei Ran touched Yingji's shoulder with satisfaction:

"Well, yes, if you can take this layer into account, it means that you have grown up.

As for Shang Jun, after the change, he has been stared at by the old nobles and the old family, and he has long been out of political affairs. ”
