"Now that we are all riding tigers, Zhu Yue definitely does not dare to deny that he said that he would accept Xi'er as a disciple, otherwise the rumors of fraud will be confirmed. But if he really admits it, what should we do? To say yes or not to say yes? ”

The Great Elder also felt that this matter was a bit tricky, and he went around and around, and actually threw the problem on their Meng Clan's head.

"This trick is indeed poisonous, but it is indeed the fastest and best way to solve the Su crisis."

Looking at the Great Elder with emotion, Meng Shunlin also sighed.

He pondered for a moment and said, "The emperor may not believe Zhu Yue, in fact, as long as he thinks about it a little, he can find out the true intention." ”

The Great Elder bowed his head, "The emperor really won't believe it, he doesn't believe that Zhu Yue will want to accept Xi'er as a disciple, because Xi'er is not familiar with him at all." But he wouldn't believe that Zhu Yue would cheat, as a Taifu, how could he be so stupid? Otherwise, he would not have become the prince and the prince back then. ”

Meng Shunlin was a little confused, he looked at the Great Elder, looking forward to the next words.

"However, the emperor will definitely be suspicious, he feels that the Zhu family has a different heart."

The Great Elder had been thinking about Zhu Yue's purpose before, and it stands to reason that Zhu Yue, who was the crown prince and prince before, could not be so ignorant of the rules.

There was only one reason, and he was also part of the plot to conceal his true intentions.

Meng Shunlin couldn't help but ask curiously: "Then what do you think is the purpose of Mrs. Zhu's doing?" ”

The Great Elder slammed the crutches in his hand to the ground, "Maybe all this is in his plan, even if the Su Clan doesn't fight back this time, the Su Clan will not be in a big problem." And Zhu Yue's purpose is to vote for his name. ”

When Meng Shunlin heard this, he carefully scrutinized, and after a while, his eyes widened, and he said in shock: "You said that he did this, is the Zhu family going to stand in line?" ”

Seeing that the Great Elder nodded, he still said in disbelief, "But are these things really in his plan?" I think it's unlikely, he thinks he'll be able to do everything? ”

The Great Elder shook his head and sighed, "He really can't be regarded as a last resort, but his purpose is probably half of it." ”

"Of course, it's to drag the third prince into the water, or another innocent prince. Depending on who he is, as long as he is not the one he wants to take refuge in. He understands the emperor's temperament, knows that the emperor is suspicious, and that prince will inevitably be suspicious of the emperor. ”

Meng Shunlin was silent when he heard this, and the court was really treacherous. A sharp blade that people can't see, maybe it will cut at you at some point.

"But they didn't expect that the Su clan actually saved himself and dragged the four princes into the quagmire, and his goal was achieved."

The Great Elder pondered for a long time, and suddenly his eyes flashed.

Meng Shunlin waited for a moment before asking, "Then who do you think he has taken refuge in behind his back?" ”

"There are a total of five princes in the court, who knows? Anyway, it won't be the third prince. ”

The Grand Elder shook his head, and then his voice became hoarse.

"The old man thinks that Su Yizhao may be involved in Su's response to this time."

The Great Elder squinted, is this really Su Wenqing's handiwork? How did he think that Su Yizhao was much more dangerous than his father, it was simply tricky.

......

Zhu Yue looked at the long steps in front of him and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

He climbed up quickly, but his mind was thinking about what to do next.

The development of events was somewhat unexpected to him, and he had to readjust, but the emperor didn't seem to intend to give him a chance.

When Zhu Yue was an official in the court, he was not only the prince and the prince, but also the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

When the emperor was still the crown prince, he was a supporter of the emperor.

Until the emperor ascended the throne, he assisted for five years, and then proposed to return to his hometown.

The emperor thanked him for his old age, so he was allowed to become a minister, but he still had the right to walk in the palace.

At this moment, Zhu Yue thought a lot, the long staircase in the past always felt very long, but today it was especially short, seeing that the main hall was close in front of him.

Amid the chanting of the ceremonial officer, he re-entered the familiar hall.

"See the emperor! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! Zhu Yue kowtowed, and his attitude was extremely respectful.

"Teacher, please get up, you don't need to make this big gift!" The emperor's voice was still very gentle, and everyone's hearts skipped a beat when they heard it.

"I heard that there is a prodigy in your academy, and you appreciate him very much, and you accepted him as an apprentice in advance, but is there such a thing?"

After greeting the old man, the emperor cut to the chase.

Zhu Yue shook his head, "The emperor is referring to the grandson of Lord Su Siqing's family?" The minister did have this intention before, but this son has already worshiped the academy Li as a teacher, how can the minister win people's love and apprenticeship? Although it is a pity, it can only be stopped. ”

Su Jinxun's eyelids jumped, but his face was still as usual.

The emperor's tone was still gentle, but there was coldness in his eyes.

"Oh! That's a pity, but I heard again, you fell in love with that Meng Lingxi, the junior of the Meng family? Do you want to take in closed disciples? ”

Zhu Yue's heart tightened, he knew the emperor, and knew that the emperor was suspicious of him.

After hesitating for a while, everyone in the hall was waiting with bated breath for Zhu Yue's reply.

The needle fell in the hall for a while, and Zhu Heqian's feet moved slightly.

However, at this moment, Zhu Yue's voice sounded again, "Indeed! The minister is living a leisurely life now, but the emperor has all the opportunities every day, and he is thirsty for talent. The minister thought that if he could teach some available talents and share his worries for the emperor, it would be a minister's mind. ”

His words made the faces of everyone present twitch slightly, and then they all felt disdain in their hearts.

"Whether it's Su Yizhao or Meng Lingxi! They are all juniors who are appreciated by the ministers! ”

This pot, he had to carry!

His plans were disrupted, and Su gave him a problem.

But then he also figured it out, if the Meng family wants to rise, it will be a big help to win over the Meng family by himself, this is a pie that fell into his arms, and he will no longer shirk it.

But how did Zhu Yue know that the first assistant E Chongming, who was at the top of the list at the moment, was suspicious in his heart and displeased with him.

Meng Lingxi is a closed disciple he is optimistic about, and he originally wanted to wait for Meng Lingxi to be admitted to Xiucai, and then he would accept him as a disciple, and the timing was just right.

But who knew that this old horseman was going to come out to cut off his beard, so how could he tolerate it?

"Your Majesty! But the minister heard that Lord Shoufu wrote a letter to Liao Haitu, the prefect of the Northern Yuan Prefecture, and the letter was full of praise for Su Yizhao, so he inevitably had other intentions? ”

Zhao Shimian, the right attendant of the Ministry of Works, came out again, he pinched the letter in his sleeve, and was about to find an opportunity to take it out.

"Master Taifu has always cherished talents, and I know it. Master Taifu has already reported this matter to me, and I said before that he was careless, but I didn't know that you were going to make a fuss about it. ”

The emperor suddenly spoke, but it made the ministers in the hall silent.

They really didn't expect that the emperor would protect Zhu Yue like this.

Zhao Shimian only felt that the letter in his sleeve was hot at the moment, as if it was about to burn his skin.
