After learning that the Emperor of Chu had fallen from the horse, the three elders of the Taige had already been waiting in the Huayuan Palace, as the highest political institution of the Chu State, there were four Taige elders, who were in charge of the large and small government affairs of the Chu State, and Ye Yunyi, the master of the Dark Pavilion, was the most mysterious of the four elders.

However, the dark pavilion is different from the Taige, the master of the dark pavilion is also one of the four elders of the Taige, and the dark pavilion participates in the country's large and small government affairs, but is not bound by the Taige, independent and outside the world. The only mission of the Dark Pavilion is to maintain the foundation of the country, and the members of the Dark Pavilion are all over the place, and they only obey the Pavilion Master.

Each Dark Pavilion Master is selected by the previous emperor, cultivated since childhood, and has gone through all kinds of hardships, and has cultivated absolute loyalty to the family and country.

At this time, the atmosphere of Taige was depressed, Shi Lin, as one of the younger members of Taige, was promoted after the current Chu Emperor ascended the throne, and his roots were not deep, and now he was most anxious, walking back and forth.

As the oldest member of Taige, Xie Shuran sat on the top seat and drank tea unhurriedly.

Ye Yunyi walked into the Taige, looking at the three Taige elders with different expressions, Xie Shuran was calm, as he sat up step by step from the petty officials of the Chu State, he had that calmness, because he had been up and down in Guanhai for more than ten years, what had he not experienced Xie Shuran?

Another member of the Taige who was also sitting there was called Fang Ji, who was a person left behind by the Empress Dowager's lineage, and although his face was also very calm, it was still a little unnatural. After all, Emperor Chu's accident was too big a blow to the Empress Dowager.

After planning for so many years, the old aristocratic line compromised with Gaozu in order to control the throne in the old aristocratic faction.

Now the news from the palace doctor is afraid that the Emperor of Chu is unsustainable, and the current old faction has no candidate who can inherit the unification, so is it necessary to "give away" the throne again, I am afraid that it is not a shame for the old nobles of the Chu State.

Seeing Ye Yunyi come in, the three elders of Taige all looked at him, but Ye Yunyi went straight to the other side and sat down, took a slow sip of tea, and then looked at the three elders.

He said, "You don't have to look at me, it's still here after all, and the next step is to discuss how to make this country go smoothly, instead of still fighting for your own family's interests," and continued to drink tea.

The young Ye Yunyi has no timidity in front of the three old foxes, counting the ups and downs of the sea in the previous life for more than 30 years, plus the current more than ten years of tempering, his heart has long been tough.

The three people sitting in front of him, compared with himself who came from later generations, the difference in vision determines the difference in pursuit.

The three elders did not dare to have the slightest contempt for Ye Yunyi because of their young age, you must know that Ye Yunyi's father Ye Beijiang is still stationed at the border, holding two-thirds of the heavy troops of the Chu State.

Ye Yunyi himself can sit on the Dark Pavilion Master, and his ability The three elders have all seen it with their own eyes. The surface is not shocked, and its means are endless. secretly holds the strength that can be called the lifeblood of the Chu State, but it is rarely known.

The three Taige elders looked at each other, knowing that it was not only the internal problems of the Chu State, but also the time when the affairs of the monarch were often accompanied by many external conflicts, politics did not pay attention to benevolence and righteousness, the big fish ate the small fish, the weak ate the strong, and the eternal rules of the food chain.

At present, only a few of them put aside their partisan prejudices, stabilize the overall situation of the country, and avoid greater conflicts at the top level.

In such an era, if there are no major changes, the change of power will only take place between the top levels, and will not have much to do with the civilians and small soldiers at the bottom.

The elders of the Taige are representatives of various forces, and only Ye Yunyi, the dark pavilion family, is the only neutral and does not belong to any department, but he really thinks about the overall situation of the country.

is also a veteran of Taige, but Fang and the only foundation of Emperor Chu has been dying for a short time, coupled with his own lack of ability, it was just because he was a favorite minister of Emperor Chu before, and Emperor Chu put him in Taige on a whim.

Ye Yunyi was not surprised at all when he saw that they had already expressed his position, if there was no way to negotiate, he would have already prepared another set of plans.

In the past few years in charge of the dark pavilion, these ministers in the palace have been thoroughly understood by him, who has not been a little dirty, and his long-term experience has made him ready not to fight unprepared battles.

Ye Yunyi didn't expect it to be so surprisingly smooth, a consensus had been reached between several high-level factions, and there was no need for him to stay here any longer, just as his tea had just finished drinking, he got up and prepared to leave this courtyard that seemed to him to be full of intrigue, which seemed to him to be full of intrigues.

"If it really comes to that moment, the Dark Pavilion will live and die with the entire Great Chu, I will give the Chu State a funeral, I hope that a few elders will not be blinded and do something harmful to the Great Chu, don't blame me for the fact that the knife of the Dark Pavilion is too sharp, I like to pull a few cushions", Ye Yunyi left without looking back. This is an oath, and it is also a warning to the forces behind the three Taige elders.

But they didn't doubt the authenticity of Ye Yunyi's words at all, because he was the master of the Dark Pavilion, and the existence of the Dark Pavilion lasted as long as the Chu State existed. It is difficult for every cabinet master of the Dark Pavilion to have a good death, and almost every one of them died for the Chu State.

More than 20 years ago, in the battle for the succession after the death of the Emperor Taishang, in order to select the Ming Lord, the Dark Pavilion and his own strength forcibly destroyed several princes who competed with Gaozu.

At the beginning, the battle forced the current queen mother to live in seclusion in Jining Temple, not asking about political affairs, several of the most promising princes to inherit the throne died directly tragically, and the old nobles who controlled half of the military power of Dachu only dared to shrink their necks to be people, and those who stayed after that time did not mention the events of the year.

At the beginning of that battle, the master of the Dark Pavilion died after Gaozu ascended the throne due to serious injuries, and the people who had experienced the events of the year almost did not know how many people were dispatched by the Dark Pavilion, so they quelled the incident, so people knew almost nothing about the strength of the Dark Pavilion, but it was definitely not easy to challenge. Even those few great families that had been circulating in the Chu State for a long time did not dare to easily provoke the anger of the Dark Pavilion.

Putting aside the identity of Ye Yunyi's secret pavilion master, the three elders would not doubt Ye Yunyi's words at all, the Ye family was even more loyal, the Ye family was once a big family, and after the large and small wars of the Chu State, only Ye Yunyi's father and son remained.

However, Mrs. Ye blocked three arrows to save Taizu and passed away a few years ago. Ye Yunyi's father, Ye Beijiang, served in the army at the age of fourteen, and at the age of twenty-one, he led the thirteen iron cavalry to defeat the army of the Liao State and save the Chu State from danger, but he has not been able to leave the border so far.

Ye Yunyi has experienced all kinds of tests at a young age, and when the children of the official eunuch family of the same age are still relying on the family shade to have fun and chanting poetry, he has already competed with various forces in the dark pavilion.
