Wang Yue was caught off guard: "Ah, what did Your Majesty just say?" ”

Ying Zheng looked at him in surprise.

Wang Yue was sure that he could see the meaning of "why are you so uninteresting" in his eyes.

Then he repeated: "I said two or eight points." ”

Wang Yue: "......"

Wang Yue raised his hand and scratched his ears, seeing that he was in a good mood, he tried his best to pretend that nothing happened, and asked boldly: "Who is eight and who is two?" ”

Ying Zheng smiled lightly, and raised his thick eyebrows slightly: "Guess." ”

Wang Yue: "......"

Wang Yue wanted to cry again.

Chapter 9

At the end of the first court meeting after the new emperor ascended the throne, everyone was in different moods, or surprised, or uneasy, or happy that the dynasty had another Ming king, and so on.

King Zhou and the prince of Zhou inevitably became the focus of everyone's eyes.

It is true that he has been passed to the great sect today, and he keeps calling the queen mother the queen mother, but after all, he has been in the Zhou Palace's mansion for eighteen years, and where can the blood relationship between father and son be cut off by etiquette.

Previously, all the ministers inquired about the temperament of the new emperor, and they all felt that the dynasty was afraid that a general would be added to the spectrum of the emperor, and the situation of the dynasty was unknown, although there were also people who went to burn the stove of the Zhou Palace, but after all, there were few.

At today's court meeting, everyone saw that the new monarch kicked the queen mother, punched the ministers, acted decisively, and had an old and spicy wrist, and immediately realized that people were just raising obscurity in the past.

Now that the hidden dragon has its sea, the coming days are unlimited, and when I go to see the Zhou Palace, I feel that the golden body is brilliant, and the brilliance is extremely dazzling, so I naturally want to go forward and get closer.

It's just that King Zhou's father and son are not arrogant and arrogant people, and they know that the more times like this, the more stable they must be, and after politely greeting with several clan elders, they didn't pay attention to the courtiers, so they hurriedly left the palace and returned to the house, and continued to close the door to thank guests.

Since the second son was selected to succeed to the palace, Princess Zhou worshipped the Buddha in the house every day, and listened to the reply, saying that the prince and the prince had returned, and she was not in a hurry to get up, and waited for the incense in front of her to finish before going to the main hall.

The king of Zhou dismissed his attendants, told his wife what happened in the court today, and at the end, he expressed his guess.

Princess Zhou knew too well what was crawling out of her stomach, so the shock she received at this time was self-evident: "It's really fake, his head is really so good?" I used to pretend to be stupid, wasn't it really stupid? ”

King Zhou: "......"

King Zhou was upset for his son: "Why are you like this, how can you think of your son so much?" That kid used to be naughty for a little bit, beckoning cats and teasing dogs, and he didn't learn anything, but I knew he was a good boy! He didn't go out to bully men and women like the sixth child in King Zheng's house, and the money to raise the little girl was also paid by himself, listening to Ayea Niang's words at home, his brother disciplined him, and he listened obediently! ”

Princess Zhou: "......"

Princess Zhou didn't know what to say all of a sudden, and was silent for a long time before she whispered, "This kid ...... Alas. Life in the palace is not easy. ”

King Zhou patted his wife's shoulder comfortingly: "It's better to be smart than stupid." He has a scale in his heart, so we can be more relieved. ”

The prince of Zhou also said: "Yes, before A-Niang was at home, she was always worried about the queen mother's proposal to use the sun and the moon as the first emperor to keep filial piety. ”

As soon as the matter of keeping filial piety with the sun and the moon came out, the people in the Zhou Palace's mansion knew that the queen mother did not hold water in her stomach, but she gave birth to a fool, and he happily agreed, and they were stopped outside the palace, and they couldn't help if they wanted to, so they could only do it outside in a hurry.

Now that I know that my son is not stupid, he just deliberately disguised himself and gave the queen mother a fatal blow in a timely manner, and he can also secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

In any case, what happened in the court today proves that the new monarch has the ability to control the situation, which is undoubtedly a great thing for the Zhou Palace.

During the period of national filial piety, it was not good to celebrate, so the prince of Zhou just toasted his father and mother with water instead of wine: "Although Your Majesty has no shortage of people in the palace, after all, he does not know the roots as well as the house, so I have to ask Aye A-Niang to take a lot of trouble and choose a few capable helpers." As for our family, closing the door and not interacting with foreign ministers is the greatest help for Your Majesty. ”

The first proud thing in this life is that King Zhou married a wife who agrees, and the husband and wife are harmonious, and the second proud thing is that the sons are very affectionate, and the brothers are united. ”

……

Wang Yue left with a BGM of sadness in his heart, and then he was summoned in the military department Shangshu Chai Tongfu.

Ying Zheng summoned him alone.

Chai Tongfu entered the imperial study, and without saying a word, he knelt on the ground to ask for guilt, and his posture was very low: "The minister is confused, the minister is guilty, I just ask Your Majesty to forgive the minister for the crime of disrespect for the sake of the minister's loyalty to the country!" ”

Ying Zheng closed the music in his hand and leaned back on the back of the chair: "What is Qing's crime?" ”

Chai Tongfu knew that he had reached a critical moment, and he had witnessed the majesty of the new emperor who killed the Quartet, how could he dare to use the set of squeezing toothpaste to deal with him, and immediately said: "In the eleventh year of Yansheng, after the death of the Duke of Qi Guogong, the minister was ordered by the first emperor to be the commander of the internal guard, and then led the internal guard of the first department for 14 years. ”

"The minister did not dare to deceive His Majesty, before the death of the first emperor, he did summon the minister to the front alone, and after the Son of Heaven made a great trip, someone would go to contact him, telling the minister to be calm and not impatient, and wait for the British lord. The minister didn't think much about it at that time, but the person who the first emperor said was His Majesty......"

"At that time, His Majesty was still in the palace for the first emperor to keep filial piety, all things were different, and the 27-day deadline had not yet arrived, so the minister did not think much about it, and today the court was shocked to hear what was played in the Chinese book, only to realize that perhaps the person the first emperor said that day was not ...... When the Son of Today. ”

When Chai Tongfu said this, he knew that this matter would inevitably involve the injustice between the two generations of emperors, his voice became deeper and lower, and his head almost hung to the ground.

Ying Zheng was thoughtful.

Did the first emperor know about it?

Knowing that the original owner is not a successor who can be entrusted to the world.

He has even arranged for a "British master" to replace the original owner to take over the five forces of the internal guard.

But it's just too much to believe.

Several emperors in the space were also puzzled.

Liu Che was speechless: "No, what is he trying to do?" On the bright side, choose a child of the clan who has a bad brain to inherit the unification, and choose a favorite 'British master' to take over the internal defense forces behind his back, the first emperor doesn't look very smart, does he have to take off his pants in advance when he farts? ”

Li Yuanda's brows furrowed: "Indeed, this behavior is too strange. No matter how ridiculous the original owner is, he is also the heir chosen by the first emperor and the new monarch of the dynasty, and he is congenitally in control of the orthodox title, since the first emperor has a promising heir, why did he choose the original owner as the heir and move such a big block for this promising heir? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it for a while, and suddenly said: "Maybe it's too troublesome for us to think about things." ”

Li Shimin said with interest: "What do you say? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang: "The reason is very simple, no matter how stupid the original owner is, there is an advantage, he is a son of the clan and has the qualifications to be the heir." And the heir who was favored by the first emperor, no matter how smart and wise he was, there was a disadvantage, he was not a member of the clan, and he could not succeed to the throne if he said that the great heavens were broken! ”

Yingzheng suddenly brightened up.

If that's the case, then the reason why the original owner was chosen is found - because he is stupid enough!

If you choose a smart clan to succeed him, he has both a name and a brain, and the probability of sitting on the throne is almost 100 percent.

But if he chooses a stupid born sect to succeed him, he doesn't even need others to fan the flames, he will kill himself!

Especially this sect still likes the south wind......

Acting stupidly, dealing with absurd politics, being succeeded by the first emperor but not even refusing to keep filial piety for him for twenty-seven months, and there are no heirs under him, and then he made heaven and earth, and let the famous generals on the border be his male pet - this is a proper template that has been abolished!

"But this is not right," Liu Che said in a stammered manner: "The heir favored by the first emperor is not a member of the clan, so even if the original owner takes the route of fainting monarch and is abolished, won't it still be his turn?" There are so many clan disciples there, unless the country is gone, how can it be possible to ask outsiders to succeed to the throne? ”

Li Yuanda thought for a while, and said slowly: "Perhaps, the identity of this person that the first emperor took a fancy to was very special. When the first emperor was critically ill, he could not, or rather be unsuitable, to be chosen as the heir, but given time and under various operations, he could......"

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't figure it out: "This is too weird!" ”

Li Shimin: "However, this matter is not without a breakthrough. ”

Several people looked at each other a few times, and said in unison: "Queen Mother!" ”

Judging from the attitude of the Empress Dowager after the original owner entered the palace, she obviously knew about the plan of the first emperor - at least partially.

The queen mother and the original owner were brought together because of the bloodline of the first emperor and the original owner's clan, at this time, what is the most suitable choice for her interests?

Control the advantages of your legal system, maintain a good relationship with your stepson, eat and drink, and live for a long time.

And the first thing the queen mother did was to encourage the original owner to take the sun and the moon as the first emperor to keep filial piety, and she destroyed the political advantage of her own widow of the first emperor.

This impure self-moving stone to shoot himself in the foot?

Then it cut off the connection between the original owner and the Zhou Palace.

This is completely useless to maintain the relationship between mother and son - the original owner is eighteen, and it is not eight months, and he clearly knows who his father and mother are!

Probably in order to mend the relationship with the original owner and maintain the façade of mother-son friendship, Feng Lanruo was elected to the palace.

You see, the queen mother let her niece be the new emperor's Zhaoyi, is this inappropriate because she wants to get along with the new emperor, is it filial piety to the mother and son?

However, Yingzheng had previously concluded that Feng Lanruo's entry into the palace was probably the product of a conspiracy.

It's weird at that.

The original owner is a descended clan, and the relationship with the Queen Mother should be hello, hello, hello, everyone, what reason does the Queen Mother have to dig a hole for him, damage his reputation, and hope to abolish him one day?

Can the "British Lord" chosen by the first emperor give her greater benefits?

But the dignity of the queen mother itself stems from the fact that she is the wife of the first emperor, so that a person who is likely not to be a member of the clan becomes the new king, which is also a kind of shaking of her own authority, why should the queen mother do such a thing that harms others and is not beneficial to herself?

Or, what kind of interest could it be that moved her to join the plan?

Ying Zheng was in a fog and couldn't guess the queen mother's thoughts, but he was very sure.

The Feng family must be a key part of this plan!

Of course, thinking of this, he turned his gaze back to Chai Tongfu, who was kneeling on the ground.

The premise of everything must be that this Chai Shangshu is not lying.

After asking Chai Tongfu a few more words, Ying Zheng signaled him to step back temporarily, and then summoned the other four internal guard commanders to meet alone.

After asking them one after another, trouble came.

The five people had the same caliber, they had all met alone before the death of the first emperor, and they all received the same advice - to stay still and wait for the British lord.

Is it these five people who are uniting to lie?

Ying Zheng briefly had such a doubt in his mind, and then he was quickly denied by himself.

The odds are too small.

Because it can't be drawn at all.

After personally witnessing the new emperor's wrists, he still felt that he could not sit on the throne, and he was willing to gamble on the nine clans waiting for the British lord, and he could not sit in the position of the commander of the internal guard.

If they are not lying, then it can only say one thing.

The internal guard is not only the five parts of A, B, C, D, etc., this is just an organization that is exposed to the surface, and under this, there are members of the internal guard who are more hidden!

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng not only didn't get angry, but smiled faintly: "It's really difficult, these rats hidden in the dark are too difficult to catch." Let me guess where these people will come from? ”

Li Shimin said: "It is known that the internal guard is divided into two halves, and half is secretly led by officials above the court, so where will the other half be?" ”

Li Yuanda said: "The hidden other half doesn't even know the commanders of the five internal guards, it can be seen that compared with the foreign ministers, the hidden half is more secretive and more trusted by the Son of Heaven, who will they be?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "The first emperor asked the five internal guard commanders to wait for the news, and the queen mother cooperated in the palace, who connected the two parties and reported the news for them at the right time?" ”

Liu Che couldn't help but want to roll his eyes: "How big the ass is and how big the pants are worn, just these two moments, I still want to abolish the emperor and set up another thing, isn't this a scarecrow playing with fire and looking for his own death." ”

Ying Zheng said lightly: "Therefore, those who know others are wise, and those who know themselves are clear." ”
