"What have the three sons of King Yan done these days?"

"Your Majesty, after the third son of King Yan stayed in King Yan's mansion, he traveled all day long, and even deliberately made friends with those officials and eunuchs who had conflicts before... There was no other action. ”

"Where have they gone?"

"Meihua Mountain, Linggu Temple, Phoenix Terrace, Qingliang Temple, Changganli... There is also Tao Yedu, today should have gone to the eldest princess's mansion, I heard that the prince of Yan Wang is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the horse was warmly invited to learn from each other..."

"It's too much fun, this trip to the kings and princes into Beijing is to sweep the mourning for the first emperor, why do you look like no one is disciplined?" Zhu Yunwen put down the fold and frowned: "Didn't you go to Zhongshan Palace?" Why didn't Wei Guogong restrain it? ”

Pei Xi glanced at Huang Zicheng Qitai on the side, and bent down slightly: "The Zhongshan Mansion has not been invited, and the third son of King Yan has not taken the initiative to come to the door, but Xu Zengshou, the governor of the left capital, visited the third son of King Yan on the day he entered the city, and then he was grounded. ”

Zhu Yunwen nodded: "Wei Guogong has always been very considerate in doing things, and this statement can make those people in the court take a good look." ”

Huang Zicheng sneered: "The eldest chanted poetry, the second picked quarrels and provoked trouble, the third was submissive, and King Yan really gave birth to three good sons." ”

After all, his own son slapped people and forced him, the emperor, to come to the door to lead people in person... Such a big resentment is understandable.

He mentioned Zhu Pen: "The third son of King Yan... Is it hiding? ”

It's too deliberate, from the turmoil in the city when he entered the city, to the stubbornness now, in a few days, the death day of the first emperor is getting closer and closer, but these three have no intention of restraining at all.

Can King Yan's son really be wasted to such a point?

As soon as these words came out, Pei Xi in the imperial study was silent, while Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng, and Qi Tai were all stunned.

In the end, Fang Xiaoru arched his hand and said: "If King Yan returns north this time, it is possible that the news that he is crazy will soon come out is that he is foolish and self-defiled, but these three sons are not very similar, especially the second son Gao Xi and the third son Gao Sui, not to mention whether they are young or not, even if someone asks them to pretend, I am afraid that they will not be able to pretend." ”

This was said very firmly, but it made Zhu Yunwen feel a little at ease, not afraid that King Yan would be too good at fighting to win the hearts of the army, but afraid that King Yan's three sons were also extremely good... If the family is so terrible, then Zhu Yunwen is really a little bottomless in his heart.

"Regarding the disposition of the three sons after the death of the first emperor, in addition to forcibly keeping them in the name of mourning, what do the gentlemen think?"

The question was whether Mr. Qing was the Qing family, Pei Xi gave up his hand and retreated with interest, and after the figure turned around the imperial study, he did not leave the palace, but waited quietly.

It didn't take long for two figures to come over, it was Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai who had played against Zhu Yunwen.

"How's it going?"

"Don't worry, the two adults, Jinyi Wei will do his best," Pei Xi arched his hand, "It's just that the lower officials still have a question, Your Majesty... Do you really plan to keep the third son of King Yan in Jinling forever? Why do you only see the word of the word, but not the clear purpose? ”

As soon as these words came out, Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai's faces were a little tight, but they quickly relaxed: "The way of a minister, you should share your worries for Your Majesty, how can Your Majesty open your mouth for this kind of thing?" ”

Pei Xi straightened up, smiling rather than smiling: "So that's the case..."

Huang Zicheng breathed a long sigh of relief: "Quickly arrange it properly, the foundation of Jinyiwei is still there, this matter must be done beautifully, when it is done, I should promise your business before, and the old man will say something for your majesty!" ”

If he had changed the past and received such a promise from a popular minister in the DPRK, Pei Xi's heart would have rippled, but now his face did not fluctuate: "Thank you, sir." ”

The back and forth explanation is nothing more than a few words, things to be done safely, things to be done in concealment, even if the three sons of King Yan have an accident, they can be associated with the imperial court, and they can't leave any evidence or anything like that, Pei Xi naturally agreed, resigned, and retired, leaving only Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai silent on his back.

After a long time, Qi Tai spoke: "This way... Is it really good? ”

Two court officials close to His Majesty pretended to pass on a holy decree for Jinyiwei to assassinate the son of the vassal king, and kept His Majesty in the dark... To say that it is good is to share the worries of His Majesty, and to say that it is difficult to say that this is a big crime of bullying the king.

Huang Zicheng's face was as hard as iron: "Is it you and I who are close to Your Majesty, or are Fang Xiaoru close to Your Majesty?" Your Majesty wants to revive the Zhou ceremony, listen to that party filial piety in everything, and you and I started to cut the feudal domain, but now it was intervened by that party filial piety, and even let Yan rebel back to Beiping... If you don't do this, cut the feudal domain to the year of the monkey? ”

Speaking of this, Qi Tai's face was also a little ugly: "Rotten and misleading the country... Yan Shun who was sent to the door can actually let it go, and it is also called to dispel his vigilance, which is really hateful! ”

"Now that Yan Rebellion has returned to the north, the court whip is beyond reach, and if you don't force the court again, wouldn't you sit back and watch Yan Rebellion become bigger? Even if I am reproached by His Majesty afterwards, I must do this! ”

Huang Zicheng put his hand on the side of the railing, and his tone was indifferent: "What's the use of letting King Yan's three sons keep filial piety for three years?" Do you still have to give Yan Yi three years of preparation time in vain? While the imperial court is still in control of the initiative, and Yan is powerless before the climate has become a climate, this is the last chance! If you don't agree, you can go and explain to Your Majesty, and then let that party be filial and low-handed, and point out the country! ”

Qi Tai sighed: "I am also in favor of this matter... Why be so excited? You and I have the same political views, how can I hold you back at this time? Just worried... I'm afraid that this matter will leave some handles. ”

"Handle? The three sons died, and King Yan couldn't afford to raise a soldier? I'll make an excerpt tomorrow and let the Kaiyuan garrison go fifty miles south, but there is an abnormal movement in Beiping City, and I will directly send troops to suppress it! When the time comes, Yan Rebellion will be a rebel who rebels, what will the people of the world think, do I need to say more? ”

Qi Tai laughed at himself: "It's just that after the matter is completed, I am afraid that the stigma of you and me will not be washed away, and it will be recorded in the history books that the third son of King Yan went south to Jinling, was assassinated and died violently, King Yan raised troops in anger, and was suppressed by the imperial court... Although it is successful, but if you act like this, you and I will be poked in the back. ”

"What's the point of the means? The difference between me and Fang Xiaoru is that I don't value these reputations very much," Huang Zicheng turned and walked away, "If the stigma can fall on my head, instead of the court and His Majesty, it will be worth it." ”

Qi Tai, who stayed in place, looked at Huang Zicheng's back blankly, and did not move for a long time.

He muttered under his breath, "Is it really worth it..."
