Chapter 243: Chang'an wind and rain, father and son tacit understanding
"Minister Han Xingrong pays a visit to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Inside the gazebo in the rain.
Han Xingrong, who was dressed in a crimson official robe, hurriedly bowed down without waiting for his breath to catch his breath.
"Excuse me." Xu Yong waved his hand unhurriedly, and then asked casually, "How are things going?"
Han Xingrong's head instantly lowered when he heard this, and then replied in a low voice, "Shangguan Shoufu didn't see his subordinates."
Don't wait for Han Xingrong to finish speaking.
Xu Yong's face changed slightly, and then he interrupted in a deep voice, "Taishan didn't see you?"
"Not seen." Han Xingrong lowered his head and replied truthfully.
The voice fell.
Han Xingrong quickly raised his head and added, "However, Shangguan Shoufu asked the third prince to bring a word."
"What?" Xu Yong hurriedly asked.
Han Xingrong bowed his head slightly, and then replied truthfully, "A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall."
"A gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall? A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall?" Xu Yong's face changed slightly again when he heard this, and after muttering a few words in a low voice, the whole person turned around and walked into the rain curtain as if he had lost three souls and seven spirits.
Leaving Han Xingrong standing in the pavilion, I don't know what to do.
In the rain.
Xu Yong scattered the little eunuchs who wanted to come to hold an umbrella in despair.
Alone through the rain curtain, I walked into the huge study.
Then the door to the study slowly closed.
Xu Yong leaned his back against the door, and his body slowly slid down the study door.
"Do you really want to give up on Ji Kai?"
Xu Yong sat paralyzed on the heavy carpet in the study, muttering to himself in his heart.
On the night that Xu Yi's impeachment of Ji Kai arrived in the cabinet, Xu Yong had already received the news.
It can even be said that he knew the full content of the letter before Emperor Zhengde.
But what can you know?
Could he still suppress Xu Yi's impeachment note from Emperor Zhengde?
Obviously, this is an impossible thing to do.
Although half of the six scholars in the cabinet are on his side.
But so what?
As long as Emperor Zhengde had a day of respite, he could not fully control the cabinet.
And so it is.
Today, before the court meeting began, the letter had already been presented to the desk of Emperor Zhengde.
As soon as the meeting was over, the six cabinet scholars were called to the imperial study of the Zichen Palace.
What he discussed, Xu Yong naturally knew.
It is precisely because of this that when the result is not yet clear, Xu Yong is so restless.
In the study room of the Prince's Mansion in the East Palace.
Xu Yong leaned against the door of the study and sat on the heavy carpet.
The news from Shangguan Lu's three sons was constantly repeated in his mind.
"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall."
Obviously, regarding Ji Kai's matter, the final result has been discussed in the imperial study.
"Ji Kai can't keep it, if you want to protect it, maybe you will drag me into the quagmire."
Xu Yong slowly closed his eyes and whispered to himself in his heart.
I don't know how long it took.
Xu Yong, who was sitting on the carpet, slowly opened his eyes.
An extremely rich killing intent burst out of his eyes without warning.
"Ji Kai is going to die, and you are going to die too."
Xu Yong silently clenched his fists, and then slowly got up from the carpet.
"Smack~!"
"Smack~!"
"Smack~!"
Xu Yong clapped his hands vigorously as he walked towards the bookcase.
"Knock knock."
It was only a few breaths before there were several light knocks on the door outside the study.
"Your Highness."
The voice of a small eunuch came to Xu Yong lightly from outside the study
in the ear.
"Chuanhan Fucheng will come to see me immediately."
Xu Yong commanded expressionlessly.
The words fell.
Xu Yong raised his hand and grabbed a glass of water and slowly poured it into the inkstone.
After putting down the teacup, he reached out again and grabbed a pair of ink ingots.
A few breaths later.
The strange sound of "squeak~squeak~squeak~" slowly came from the inkstone.
Although Xu Yong's face was expressionless, the strange sound of the inkstone and the back of his hand holding the ink ingot at this time had already exposed the unrest in his heart at a glance.
Fortunately, there were no two people in the study at this time.
Wait until the ink is ready.
Xu Yong took out a piece of rice paper as white as satin and slowly spread it on top of the bookcase.
Then he slowly sat down and took out a slender wolf pen from the pen holder.
With a slight movement of the pen, lines of small words slowly emerge on the rice paper.
After more than 100 breaths.
Xu Yong slowly put down the wolf pen in his hand, took out a paper cutter from the side of the bookcase, and slowly cut out all the handwriting.
When he sealed the rice paper with lines of small characters written on it into the envelope, it was supplemented with fire clay.
Suddenly, two footsteps sounded outside the study.
"Knock knock."
There was another knock on the study door.
A little eunuch paused in front of the door of the study and saluted respectfully, "Your Highness, Han Mansion has arrived."
"Enter." Xu Yong said expressionlessly.
As soon as the words fell, there was a slight creak from the study door.
Han Xingrong, who was half-wet, gently pushed open the door of the study and walked in.
As soon as Fang entered the study, the door of the study was slowly closed by the little eunuch outside the door.
"Minister Han Xingrong, meet His Royal Highness the Prince."
Han Xingrong took two steps forward and saluted respectfully.
"Excuse me." Xu Yong said without raising his head.
As soon as the words fell, the study fell into an eerie silence for a moment.
Until, Xu Yong completely sealed the letter in his hand with fire clay.
Xu Yong slowly raised his head and looked at Han Xingrong who was standing with his hands hanging down in front of the bookcase with an expressionless face.
"Immediately hand over this letter to Liu Guixiang."
Xu Yong slowly handed the letter in his hand to Han Xingrong.
Han Xingrong took the letter with both hands, bowed his hand and said, "The minister obeys the order!"
"Go ahead." Xu Yong waved his hand slightly.
That Liu Guixiang is not an outsider, he is Xu Yong's most trusted person outside the East Palace.
Its status in Xu Yong's heart is even slightly higher than that of Ji Yuye, who was hiding in Yandi at this time.
Wait until the study door closes again.
Xu Yong sat down on the Taishi chair as if all his energy had been drained.
His eyes looked at Fang Liang blankly, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart: "Ji Kai, don't force Gu to kill them all, you must know that if you are alone, Zheng Guogong will not be extinct."
In fact, with Liu Guixiang here, Xu Yong will never worry about Ji Kai.
Whether Ji Kai chooses "decent" or not, it doesn't matter.
Liu Guixiang will send him on his last journey.
This move seems selfish to the point of despair, but in fact it is the best way to deal with this matter.
First, the evidence attached to Xu Yi's impeachment chapter can be described as ironclad.
Under the ironclad evidence, there is absolutely no possibility of a reversal between him and Zheng Guogong Ji Kai.
Second, the final decision has been made in the imperial study, and all that remains is to go through the necessary processes in the imperial hall.
The evidence was conclusive, and Emperor Zhengde made up his mind to kill Zheng Guogong Ji Kai.
In such a situation, who dares to stop it today?
An old tiger is still a tiger! And the old tiger is even more moody.
What if he was the crown prince?
It's not like the old tiger hasn't killed the so-called crown prince.
This matter must not be hindered in the slightest.
It is also necessary to put aside all its own involvement as soon as possible.
Otherwise, it will be difficult for you to get out.
Third, no matter whether Xu Yong saves it or not, Zheng Guogong Ji Kai can't avoid the end of the nine clans.
Its salvation is nothing more than adding a few more souls.
If he doesn't save it, at least he can save Ji Kai's illegitimate children outside the Beijing Division, so that Zheng Guogong and his lineage will not be truly extinct.
When he ascended to the Ninth Five-Year Plan, Zheng Guogong was still in the bag of his Ji family.
Moreover, by that time, Zheng Guogongji's family is bound to be even stronger and more brilliant than it is now.
That's what I think about.
Xu Yong slowly closed his eyes in a state of exhaustion.
I don't know how long it took.
When Xu Yong slowly opened his eyes again.
There was no tiredness in his eyes.
There was only a trace of coldness left in his eyes that could not be dissolved.
There was a faint expression of anger suppressed to the extreme.
First of all, Zhang Yongnian, the Duke of Song.
Later, Zheng Guogong Ji Kai.
In less than a year, he lost two generals under his command because of Xu Yi!
And he is still a high-powered general!
What will be the impact of this on the whole situation?
"No! This thief must not stay any longer!"
"This thief must not stay any longer!"
Xu Yong clenched his fists and kept roaring in his heart.
For a moment, the slightly chubby face shook violently involuntarily.
He didn't dare to imagine how unfavorable the situation would be if he continued to let Xu Yi live in the world.
"Bang!" There was a loud bang.
Xu Yong directly slapped the case, and at the same time, his chest was panting violently like a kettle boiling water.
"The Dark Princelings must not continue to use it!" Xu Yong pressed his hands on the bookcase and muttered to himself in his heart.
After losing two princes in a row, the so-called dark princelings have begun to reel.
If the dark princelings continue to be used, whether they succeed in the end or not, they will have to pay an unimaginable price.
Therefore, the dark princeling must not be used lightly unless it is absolutely necessary?
"Framed?" Xu Yong frowned tightly and muttered in a low voice.
But soon.
Xu Yong shook his head slightly and said, "This plan doesn't work."
His plan to attack his shield with his spear was really seamless to a certain extent.
However, even like this, it was still easily resolved by Xu Yi, and he was beaten back.
If you continue to use this trick to persecute Xu Yi.
It is bound to be more than worth the loss.
Xu Yong pressed his hands on the bookcase, and his brows furrowed more and more.
For one time, he couldn't find how to deal with Xu Yi, who was more than 2,000 miles away.
Impeachment of Xu Yi for oppressing the people?
As far as Xu Yong knew, he had never had much contact with the people since he became a vassal.
The only thing related to the people is the construction of a nursing home to support the orphans, widows and the elderly.
How can such an act be used to oppress the people?
How can you talk about bullying a good girl and insulting the royal demeanor?
As far as Xu Yong knew, since he became a vassal, he had never had contact with any woman except Princess Yan.
Such an act, how can it be said to bully a good woman and insult the royal demeanor?
Impeachment of Xu Yi for private support?
This move was a capital offense in the previous dynasty, but in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the border king supported the troops to protect the pass, which was a rule since the founding of Emperor Taizu.
As far as Xu Yong knew, Xu Yina's Wang camp in the east of Fuyang City had 21,000 soldiers and horses.
However, its specifications did not exceed the total number of soldiers and horses of the border kings stipulated by the Great Zhou Law.
Unless he is crazy, he will never use this to impeach Xu Yi and make the world laugh.
In addition to this, impeachment can also be achieved
Xu Yi what?
Impeachment for meddling in the affairs of a land?
As far as he knew, Xu Yi had never had close contact with any official in Yandi since he became a vassal.
This impeachment is pure nonsense.
In the study room of the Prince's Mansion in the East Palace.
Xu Yong frowned, constantly thinking about countermeasures.
I don't know how long it took.
Xu Yong slowly sat down on the Taishi chair again.
He scolded in a low voice, "This thief is really as difficult as a fish loach!"
......
......
One night passed in a flash.
When the eastern sky glows slightly.
Under the guidance of several eunuchs, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty slowly stepped into the Jinluan Palace.
Xu Yong, as always, lowered his hand and stood on the lower left side of the dragon chair.
Then time passed.
A seemingly magnificent but in fact I don't know how many times I have discussed the great court meeting slowly came to an end.
Xu Yi's impeachment note unsurprisingly caused an uproar in the court.
Zheng Guogong Ji Kai was unexpectedly taken down by the Mingguang armor on the spot.
Subsequently, Emperor Zhengde unsurprisingly became angry and ordered the three divisions to be interrogated as soon as possible.
Throughout the Great Dynasty Meeting, Xu Yong has been standing on the lower left side of the dragon chair with his hands down, watching all this happen.
In the days that followed.
Xu Yong's so-called witnesses quietly arrived in Chang'an City.
However, it did not wait for the triage of the three divisions to officially begin.
On the eve of the trial of Zheng Guogong Ji Kai, he left a bloody letter to confess his guilt.
He himself was killed in the prison cell.
Although Zheng Guogong Ji Kai died, the triage of the three divisions should be carried out or how to proceed.
In the end, Zheng Guogong Ji Kai was sentenced to raid his home and exterminate the nine clans for colluding with foreign enemies and killing the people!
In the days that followed.
The Jing'an Division was jointly dispatched with the Criminal Department and the Household Department.
Raid the house, arrest the person.
The prison of the Criminal Department and the prison of Jingzhao Mansion were overcrowded for a while.
This will continue at least until the end of autumn.
Poor Zheng Guogong Ji Kai, who single-handedly enriched the treasury and fattened the interior.
When Zheng Guogong's matter gradually came to an end.
I don't know how many people up and down the Manjing Division secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
......
......
In the study room of the Prince's Mansion in the East Palace.
Xu Yong, dressed in loose clothes, stood by the windowsill, quietly looking at the starry sky in the distance.
For some reason, the starry sky is exceptionally bright tonight.
Behind it.
Han Xingrong stood with his hands over, gushing about something.
A moment later.
Xu Yong slowly turned around and said calmly, "I know about this matter, put the letter on the bookcase and then retreat to rest."
"Obey the order." Han Xingrong bowed deeply, and then put an unopened letter in his hand on the bookcase.
Then he slowly exited the study.
After Han Xingrong's figure completely disappeared in the study.
Xu Yong walked towards the bookcase and slowly sat down in the Taishi's chair.
"Saltpeter ice? It is nothing but a mercy to the people."
"This is the thief's usual trick."
Xu Yong sat on the Taishi's chair and shook his head with a sneer on his face.
Then he reached out and picked up the secret letter that Han Xingrong had just put in the bookcase.
"I'm going to see what little moves you've done, a thief."
Xu Yong stared at the letter in his hand with a cold face.
After dozens of breaths, he slowly opened the envelope and took out a slightly thin piece of rice paper from it.
Immediately, his eyes slowly wandered over the rice paper.
His face suddenly became more and more gloomy
Get up.
