Chapter 240: Uncle and sister-in-law confess
"Emperor Yuanren can delay for more than a year, that is definitely bragging, otherwise, the date of Prince Yuanzhi marrying the crown princess is hurriedly set on the eighth day of the third month, for what?" Wei Mengyao's eyes narrowed and he snorted coldly.
Wei Mengyao is the big apricot eyes of the standard Xianbei clan, even if she squints, her eyes are still very big, and she can't squint the charm of the girl in the Guannai.
It is very different from Cao Feiyan's charming eyes.
Yuan Yong smiled and said:
"Oh, I said second sister-in-law, have you noticed that the crown prince's wisdom has changed a lot when I go back to Beijing this time, and my second brother and I both feel the same way."
"In the past, Yuan Zhi's vision of people was not so sharp, his eloquence was average, where would he be so calm and disciplined in doing things, but now you find that there is no, it is simply a rebirth, the second brother They said that he was estimated to be hidden in the past, and his original form was revealed after the prison of the country, which is a bit like his father, our eldest brother Yuanren."
"Hidden? Yuan Zhi is indeed a mystery. ”
Wei Mengyao frowned and said:
"The old lady has also carefully analyzed, but Yuan Zhi has neither a prince and a young master like Cao Qichang around him over the years, nor other advisers and staff, and now the people and ministers around him are all slowly formed after he took power in the country, to say that he has followed him for a long time, that is, Gao Jin, the chief of the inner chamberlain."
"According to the information that the old lady has, Gao Jin is the son of a criminal minister of the former dynasty, and he was willing to enter the palace as a eunuch thirty years ago in order to avoid being filled with the army.
In other words, Yuan Zhi is now in charge of a series of new policies in the country, and Gao Jin cannot be the mastermind. Then the old lady doesn't understand, where did the wisdom, judgment, ability to govern the country, ability to control authority, etc., come from? ”
Yuan Yong also sighed when he heard this:
"More than half a year ago, he was pushed to the front desk by Yuanren as the prince of the prison country, Cao Fu may have underestimated the enemy, but in the first few battles, he let him stand firm and did not slap him to death."
"I heard from the old prince that it is rumored that in the collection of books in the East Palace, Yuan Zhi found a few 'heavenly books' a few years ago, and he was secretly reading them. In addition, Emperor Yuanren gave the crown prince two protectors, one is Ji Hong, the other is Guo Wei, and of course, there is Qian Niuwei who is loyal to the royal family, and he has nothing else. ”
"At that time, he had not tasted power, he was able to run power so vividly, I have to say that he was a genius, as a member of the Yuan clan, avoiding conflicts of interest and prejudices, this king still admires this eldest nephew, and wants my sons to be proud of him."
Wei Mengyao was also silent when she heard this.
In her heart, she also agrees with Yuan Yong's point of view.
Seeing this, Yuan Yong continued to show his curiosity, "There is one thing that this king doesn't understand, why did Cao Feiyan give up letting King Jin compete for the crown prince at this juncture?" In the past ten years, especially after Yuanren was paralyzed, she has intensified, and suddenly... Why is that? ”
Wei Mengyao took a sip of herbal tea and said firmly:
"According to the analysis of the situation provided to us by Bu Shuren in the past six months, since the crown prince was in charge of the country, a series of reborn changes in Yuan Zhi have greatly shocked Cao Feiyan's own thoughts."
"Cao Feiyan's support for the Jin king's struggle for the crown prince is mainly based on the incompetence and conceivability of the crown prince Yuanzhi, she thinks that Yuanzhi can't support the end of the Jin Empire at all, so she supports the Jin king's struggle for the prince."
"But at the same time, she is also faintly worried about the power of Cao Fu, her father Cao Qichang's behavior and methods, Cao Feiyan knows very well, I am afraid that she will eventually fall into the end of the praying mantis catching cicadas, and the yellow finch will be the end."
"Actually, she is also worried that in the future, the Jin Empire may change color, and gradually change from the Yuan clan to the Cao clan, and she has become a historical sinner."
"When Yuan Zhi repeatedly thwarted Cao Fu's counterattacks and conspiracies, and the administration of the prison country gradually became on the right path, fully demonstrating Yuan Zhi's amazing wisdom and ability, she began to shake her inherent view of Yuan Zhi, and gradually changed from disgust to appreciation, until she fell in love."
"Cao Feiyan is a strange woman who dares to love and hate, when she finds out that she is in love with the crown prince, of course she will fully support him in everything, including Jiangshan Sheji, so she took the initiative to give up her plan to support King Jin to compete for the crown."
Yuan Yong seemed to understand, he nodded and said:
"Yuan Xuan himself has a weak personality, he is not suitable to be an emperor, this is the main aspect that Cao Fu wants to make full use of, in order to achieve the coercion of the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but Cao Feiyan's personality is not weak, how do you feel when you saw her a few years ago?"
Wei Mengyao shook her head, "Cao Feiyan has hardly changed much compared to three years ago, but her status has changed, and she has been promoted from the imperial concubine to the queen, but her temperament has not changed, she is still stinky and hard, and her mind will only be deeper than three years ago." ”
"You're arguing again." Yuan Yong said clearly.
Wei Mengyao glared at him fiercely and scolded: "What kind of people are they, how can they quarrel!" ”
Yuan Yong was inexplicably reprimanded, he shrugged his shoulders with a wry smile and said with a sneer: "Second sister-in-law, you continue." ”
"However, Cao Feiyan will definitely not be reconciled, she has been slowly dying of old age in the deep palace all her life, she is a very active person."
Hearing this, Yuan Yong immediately asked, "Are you saying that it is possible for her to think of something else?" ”
Wei Mengyao frowned and shook her head, and said in a deep voice:
"I haven't seen that meaning yet, but the last information I received from Bu Shuren a few years ago said that I learned from the queen's personal female official that Cao Feiyan had secretly gone to Lishan Palace, which was a very strange move."
"Since Emperor Jiye was paralyzed, no one has been to Lishan Palace for five years, she suddenly went there, and said that starting next year, she will go there in the summer, and the old lady feels that she wants to give birth to a child, because Yuan Xuan was also born in Lishan Palace."
Yuan Yong was very disappreciative when he heard this, "Second sister-in-law, you are too sensitive, she went to Lishan Palace, you think she wants to have a child, who will give birth to?" ”
"Of course, it is to give birth to a child for the prince, once a woman falls in love with a man, she is willing to give birth to a child for him, the old lady is also a woman, Cao Feiyan's mind I know best."
"Then why didn't my second sister-in-law give me one? Doesn't it mean that you don't love deeply enough, right? Yuan Yong thought about it, and he said coldly.
Wei Mengyao was stunned for a moment, her face suddenly sank, and she said, "What are you kidding, how can you give birth at my mother's age?" ”
"But eight years ago, you didn't have that plan." Yuan Yong bit it and admitted this death.
"You are really unreasonable, I have a child with you, is your second brother a fool? He himself does not know how to calculate, is this child his? Besides, the situation between us is different from Cao Feiyan, she has her own ideas and even ulterior ambitions and plans by giving birth to Yuan Zhi. ”
Wei Mengyao twisted Yuan Yong's arm with her hand, a little hating that iron does not become steel.
