Chapter 131; First glimpse of calculations
"Chunchen?"
The eldest princess of Ningyang was stunned for a moment, and then understood what she meant.
What is a pure minister? It's not any faction, and it doesn't participate in any factional battles, but it's just a pure minister who is bent on ending the imperial power.
Now in the situation of the Yu Dynasty, the eldest princess of Ningyang knows very well that before Huo Junyao came back, the Duke of Ji Guo Mansion was naturally on the side of the prince.
But since the calculation of the prince and Zhao Yan'er at that palace banquet, the Duke of Ji has already stood on the opposite side of the prince.
As the so-called enemy of the enemy is a friend, during this period of time, the King of Qi and the King of Chu have not been less private to win over Ji Guogong.
As for Ji Guogong himself, to be honest, he is also a little tempted.
If it had been placed in the past, Ji Guogong would never have made such a hasty decision, but the prince's actions made him really feel a little cold, so although he didn't say too much, he was already holding back a lot of strength in his heart to pull the prince off the horse.
Therefore, when facing the King of Qi and the King of Chu, he was a little tempted, after all, the power of these two is not weak, if he can choose one of them, the success rate will be very large, and it is definitely not far more than him fighting alone.
He also discussed this with the eldest princess of Ningyang, but he couldn't make a specific decision for a while.
After all, there is a lot at stake in such a thing as standing in line.
And once they stand in line, how will the emperor look at them, and the impact is not small.
But now that she heard Huo Junyao's words, the eldest princess of Ningyang had an idea in her heart, and it was indeed impossible to choose to stand in line now, which would not only involve the entire Jiguo Mansion in the vortex, but also make their status in the emperor's heart problematic.
"It's good to be a pure minister, but what about the prince?"
At this point, the crown prince will definitely not be able to ascend to the throne, judging from his current attitude, once he ascends to the throne, the Jiguo Mansion will inevitably face a catastrophe.
"I have my own way to do this, mother, you just need to be a pure minister."
If she wants to clean up the prince, it is not an overnight thing, she already has a very preliminary plan in her heart, and she still needs to improve it a little bit.
Hearing this, the eldest princess of Ningyang looked at Huo Junyao silently, and it took a long time before she spoke; "When you need help, you have to tell your mother."
She understood what Huo Junyao meant, and at the same time she was also very distressed.
This is planning to deal with the prince alone, not to involve the Ji Guo Mansion into it, she knows that this is to take into account the emperor's opinion of the Ji Guo Mansion.
If she did it alone, even if the emperor would be angry, he would be helpless.
Because it was the prince who started to target her, you can't just allow your prince to deal with others, and you won't allow others to retaliate, right?
Huo Junyao did not use the power of the Ji Guo Mansion, but clearly told the emperor and everyone that this was a personal grudge between the two of them.
The prince of a country has already taken a lot of advantages against a woman, and if he still loses, it can only mean that this prince is very bad.
At the same time, the emperor and the queen will also be embarrassed to shoot at Huo Junyao because of their faces, they are already bullying the small, they are losing royal face when they join, and at the same time, how will the world think of the royal family?
How will those nobles view the royal family?
The impact of this will be very huge, and they will have to think about it clearly, after all, if this one is not done well, the royal majesty and face will be lost, and even the courtiers will fight back.
Of course, such a calculation of the royal family, if it is replaced by someone else, it is naturally not possible, but Huo Junyao can.
Because of what happened more than ten years ago, the emperor's family owed her a great favor, and she understood this, so she wanted to use this great favor in exchange for a fair one-player duel.
The mother and daughter quickly returned to the eldest princess's mansion, Huo Jingzhi and Huo Jinyan had been waiting at the door, and when they saw them coming back, they hurriedly stepped forward to inquire about the situation.
"Let's go inside."
In the living room, the eldest princess of Ningyang withdrew all her subordinates, told Huo Junyao's plan to Huo Jingzhi's father and son, and analyzed all the things in it thoroughly.
"Mother is right, second brother, you'd better not meddle in this matter, don't give others excuses."
Huo Jingzhi was silent for a long time before he spoke; "You've decided?"
For Huo Junyao's plan, he can't find a problem, such a solo duel is indeed the best way, even if everyone knows about it in the end, no one can find fault with it.
As for the statement of the monarch and the minister, it is impossible for the prince to say this as long as he wants to make a face.
After all, it is in the face of a woman's challenge, and the prince of a dignified country can only rely on such a statement, then this prince is too wasteful, too shameless, even if he wins in the end, it will lose the hearts of the people, and the position of the prince will never be kept.
It can be said that Huo Junyao has calculated everything thoroughly, and almost blocked all the roads, so he wants a one-man duel with the prince.
"Since you have decided, then the father will promise you."
"However, the Jiguo Mansion will always be your backing, if you can't do anything in the end, even if the father fights to destroy the Jiguo Mansion, it will not make the prince feel better."
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Huo Jinyan.
"Dad, what do you see me doing? Xiaomei is a member of our Jiguo Mansion, and it is inevitable that we will advance and retreat together. ”
Hearing this, Huo Jingzhi and the eldest princess of Ningyang nodded with satisfaction.
"Dad, don't worry, one-on-one, he is not enough for me to fight."
It's just a prince, she really didn't pay attention to it, if it weren't for the fact that there were too many things behind her, she wouldn't have bothered to arrange so much.
"Oh? Xiaomei is so confident? Let's talk about your method, the second brother will help you with the staff officer. ”
Huo Junyao shook his head.
"Okay, don't ask, it's useless for us to know, just let your little sister do it herself."
Huo Junyao's words just now have been made very clear, the Duke of Ji Guo Mansion does not need to be involved, then it is better to know nothing.
As long as they don't know, then they won't do anything to cooperate, they don't mix, even if the emperor and queen see that Huo Junyao is targeting the prince, there is no way to get involved.
"Yes, don't ask anything, how was it before, what will happen in the future, you just need to be your little sister's most solid backing, don't mix the rest."
Huo Jinyan nodded and did not continue to ask.
After a while, someone outside came to report, and Chang Xinbo and his daughter asked to see him.
When he was in the imperial study just now, Chang Xinbo said that he would come over to apologize, Huo Junyao briefly explained the situation, and Huo Jingzhi asked his subordinates to invite people in.
At this time, Sun Mingwei was already frightened, and she was scolded angrily by Sun Zhao, she also knew that she had fallen into a big disaster, and apologizing was her only way out, if she didn't come, Huo Junyao, a madman, was afraid that she would still hit the door.
At that time, she may not be able to survive.
