Chapter Eighty-Three: The Moon is Full and the Water is Overflowing

"Lord Yang, in just a few days, dozens of officials, large and small, have been imprisoned in the imperial court."

"In addition, Your Majesty has also issued an order to allow the officials of the provinces on the list of crimes to come to Kyoto on the Moon Worship Festival."

"In this way, there is a good chance that these officials will be questioned, they are all chess pieces that you have cultivated for many years, can you just watch and do nothing?"

In the past few days, Yang Wenyuan has been staying in the mansion behind closed doors, and it was not until this evening that many confidants and ministers were summoned.

As soon as he sat down, Li Shouting began to ask questions impatiently.

Yang Wenyuan's expression did not change at all, and he was still drinking tea leisurely, and everyone who watched it was full of anxiety.

It wasn't until the teacup was put down that he spoke.

"Do you think the old man doesn't want to save them? Nowadays, the emperor is determined to punish these people, can't you see why? ”

Several people glanced at each other, their eyes full of doubts.

"The emperor is using this to wake us up. You know, although in this matter, we are not involved. ”

"However, the appointment and promotion of these officials were all recommended by us, and it is already a blessing that we have not been punished for a single crime of negligence, or even more crimes.

Only then did several people react, admiring Yang Wenyuan's thoughts again and again.

"As for what the other officials think, you don't need to worry."

"This matter, you can completely push it on the Duan family, it is their Duan family who stabbed this matter to the sky, and everything we should do has already been done."

"By the way, you can also bring the crown prince, if he hadn't contributed to the trouble, the emperor would not have made such a decision, so that other officials would put their resentment on the Duan family and the crown prince."

Hearing this, Jia Siming was the first to give up.

"The prime minister is wise!"

Yang Wenyuan half-squinted his eyes and looked at him.

"Your son, has he already come out?"

Speaking of this, Jia Siming's face suddenly showed shame.

"Just this morning, it has come out. Moreover, the matter of promising the crown prince has also been approved by the emperor. ”

Yang Wenyuan snorted coldly.

"You guys, be careful in the future, except for yourself, take care of your family, don't let that Liu Qi catch your handle again."

"Jia Siming, it's just a lesson at this time, and you can do it yourself in the future."

Jia Siming nodded his head one after another.

"The lower officials will definitely pay attention."

The behavior above the court that day can already be said to be a betrayal.

But instead of asking him the blame, Yang Wenyuan even said that he could understand and let him do it according to the agreement with the prince.

At this time, listening to Yang Wenyuan's accusation, where did he dare to refute half a sentence.

As soon as the words fell, Yang Wenyuan's gaze fell on Yang Chu's body.

"Your matter, the old man has already settled it."

"On the cusp of the storm, you actually traded with foreign clans, and you used your brains to do things in the future, that is, that Liu Qi, who didn't want to tear his face with us, if he really said this matter that day, how do you think the emperor would deal with it?"

Although the tail had been cut off by Yang Wenyuan, thinking of the consequences of this incident, Yang Chu still couldn't help but feel chills.

"Prime Minister, I... I'll pay attention later. ”

Yang Wenyuan snorted lightly, ignored him, and was just about to pick up the teacup when Li Shouting spoke again.

"My lord, all kinds of incidents have arisen because of the prince, and now he has more military power, if it continues to develop like this, I am afraid that in the future, it will be even more threatening to us!"

Yang Wenyuan held the tea cup in his hand and put it on his lap.

"Don't be in a hurry, as the so-called moon is full and the water is full, let him be arrogant for a few days, and when he goes on the expedition, I won't be too late to do it again."

"Pei Yan!"

Hearing Yang Wenyuan's shout, a squire with a knife walked in from outside the hall.

"What has the prince done in recent days? Let's talk about it to all the ministers. ”

"It is reported that in addition to the Duan family, I went to Nanying once, met General Han Zhong, and General Bai Qi, and in addition, just today, I also went to Chen's Mansion once, and went to Sanmen Bridge with Princess Jiaoyuan."

Hearing this, Jia Siming frowned slightly.

"Could it be that the crown prince wants to be friends with Princess Qingyang?"

Several of the other adults nodded in agreement, agreeing with the same thoughts.

Li Shouting sneered.

"I don't think so, the crown prince is like this, it's just to confront the eldest prince, and there won't be any threat to us."

"Yes, Princess Qingyang has always been displeased with Liu Qi, thinking that she was looking at marrying Chen Yuan to the eldest prince, and she was afraid that she would have the opportunity to let the eldest prince ascend the throne, so she was anxious, so she flattered Princess Qingyang."

Yang Wenyuan nodded.

"The ministers are right, and the old man thinks the same way."

But at this time, Jia Siming sighed softly.

"Alas, it's a pity, the eldest prince is not the same as us, otherwise he would be the best candidate for the crown prince."

Li Shouting immediately agreed.

"Yes, now there is only the fourth prince Liu Yin, and there is still some hope, but this son, his brain is not very good, and those remarks in the court are really shocking."

Yang Wenyuan suddenly laughed.

"What, do you still want a prince who is as smart as Liu Qi?"

"Jasmin."

"It's time, find an opportunity, with the four princes, and move around more."

Jia Siming knew that this was Yang Wenyuan, and gave him another chance to make up for his mistakes.

"Don't worry, my lord, Weichen will live up to expectations."

"Also, because of the events of the past few days, coupled with the court meeting, the emperor is in a bad mood, a few of you, don't worry about it, and pestle in front of His Majesty, do you understand?"

Speaking of Emperor Qing, he was standing outside the door of Shengning Palace at this time, and after thinking for a while, he finally pushed the door and walked in.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?"

Seeing the appearance of Emperor Qing, Su Ji was very happy.

"The concubine is going to change clothes."

Emperor Qing waved his hand.

"No need, I'm tired today, I happened to pass by you, so I came to see you."

So saying, he walked over to the bed.

Even Su Ji was stupid, she understood what Emperor Qing meant, so she hurriedly went over to serve and took off Emperor Qing's shoes to the ground.

As soon as he got up, he was hugged by Emperor Qing.

However, Emperor Qing was not in a hurry to do anything, but chatted casually with Su Ji.

As he spoke, the topic came to Liu Xuan.

"Concubine."

"The concubine is listening."

"I just said what if, what if, I didn't abolish Xuan'er's position as the crown prince at that time, and let him continue to be the prince."

"One day, if Liu Xuan is allowed to ascend the throne and become the emperor, and several other princes do not agree with him, how will you, as the queen, deal with it?"
