Chapter 082 Go Home
The people of the Ministry of Ceremonies and the Ministry of Household left. The emperor sat alone in the imperial study, and his eyes were a little astringent.
In the past few days, the Empress Dowager's condition improved, and the emperor was finally relieved.
After he went to court in the past, he had to serve the empress dowager first, which has become a habit.
He didn't have to serve these days, so he took the opportunity to take a nap.
I sleep a little more these days, and my eyes are often dry, but I don't sleep much.
He gently rubbed his eyes and clear acupuncture point, and it eased a little.
Another unfinished imperial edict on the table was given to Gu Jinzhi as a noble concubine. Now that it's useless, the emperor gently folded it and put it aside.
In the need for Gu Jinzhi, what method should he use to elevate the Gu family and make the Gu family a powerful family in line with the Tan family and Yuanping Houfu?
Gu Jinzhi ruled the Empress Dowager, and the emperor was ready to attract the Gu family, so he promoted her as a noble concubine. Otherwise, the Gu family has no merit, and the second Gu Jinzhi did not give birth to a prince, and there is no great virtue in the palace. At most, he can only be a noble.
Now, what should I do?
The emperor has a headache.
Although the frontier has been quiet and peaceful over the years, the court is also clean and honest, and there are no treacherous sycophant, and the streets are full of wolves and tigers.
But it is inevitable for the emperor to practice a new job, and the old ministers in the court bully the young master. In the more than four years since he ascended the throne, the situation in North Korea and China has gradually revealed its drawbacks.
Headed by, one is the Marquis of Yuanping, and the other is the Tan family.
Marquis Yuanping is the only son of Princess Minghui. He has made military achievements and served as a secretary in the Ministry of War. Now his family is everywhere, and there is a tendency for the party to fight against different people. Although he was hidden and did not dare to be openly arrogant, he could not escape the emperor's eyes and ears, but the emperor was shocked when he saw it.
The Marquis of Yuanping and the mother and son of Princess Minghui have made contributions to supporting the emperor. These old ministers can't deal with them. Otherwise, the emperor will fall into the bad reputation of revenge. Everyone in the court is in danger, and I'm afraid the situation is unstable.
The emperor just watched Jiang Liang, the Marquis of Yuanping, become powerful day by day...
In addition, Zhang and Hou Tan, the mother's family of the former queen, also worried the emperor. Mr. Tan has been the first assistant. Although he is not in his position now, his eyes and ears are all over the government. The current Xia Shoufu is also a proud disciple of Mr. Tan.
Xia Shoufu vaguely revealed several times that he wanted the emperor to make the five-year-old eldest prince of Tan Housheng the crown prince.
The emperor was inde need of the Empress Dowager and went to Kunning Palace to serve, and interrupted Xia Shoufu's proposal.
There are also several ministers. Tiao Chen asked Tan Guifei, the sister of the former queen, to be the queen.
In this way, the reputation of the Tan family is even greater.
The Tan family and the Yuanping Marquis Yiwen Yiwu dominate the court and let them go down. One day, the emperor's power will be useless.
The emperor's foundation is not stable, and there are not many loyal ministers, so he dares not rush to break the situation in the court, so he had to penetrate and disintegrate from it little by little.
He wants to raise a new family of hope and break the existing shackles.
Gu Yantao, a scholar of Dongge University, is the person valued by the emperor.
I still remember that when the emperor was still the prince, when the emperor was hunting in the West Mountain, an antelope was chased to the edge of the cliff, hit by seven or eight arrows, and then fell off, but hung on the ancient pine halfway up the mountain.
The emperor said forget it, don't want it. It's too dangerous to take.
Then everyone left.
The emperor stood there and looked at it for a long time.
Gu Yantao came over and asked, "Prince, do you want that antelope?"
The emperor nodded.
Of course he wants it, but the hillside is so steep that if he is not careful, he will fall down and smash his bones. The antelope is obviously dead and hanging there motionless. It is not impossible to get it.
The emperor is hesitating.
Gu Yantao picked up his clothes, pulled the small trees and short grass on the hillside, and took the risk to help the prince get the antelope back.
He finally came back safely.
Both the former emperor and the emperor were very happy and praised Gu Yantao's bravery in person. Although he is a civil servant, he is also a strong general.
After going back, the emperor asked the emperor what he thought of Gu Yantao.
The emperor said, "He wants to flatt me, which shows that he has a lot of power. His article is well written and the introduction is unique, but Tan Shoufu doesn't like him, saying that he doesn't have a gentleman's style. He is too petus behavior and always suppresses him..."
The former emperor nodded with great approval.
Then the former emperor said to the emperor, "You have to remember what your father said today: Gu Yantao, if the situation is chaotic, you can praise him. If he can make it more messy, you can win. When you really control the situation in the court, you can't reuse this person. This man is in power, and he does not spare his own life. How can he cherish the life of others? At that time, his means of expelling dissidents will be frightening.
The former emperor believed that Gu Yantao could become a treacherous hero as long as he had the opportunity.
This kind of person, be careful of him.
Gu Yantao is like a falcon. He is really helpful when hunting, but he should be more careful of being scratched by him.
In the four years since the emperor ascended the throne, he looked at it coldly for four years.
He wanted to do it two years ago. Then, within half a year, his mother was seriously ill, and he suddenly lost his energy.
How hard it was for him and his mother to be appreciated by his father. The emperor will never forget what his mother had done to him.
He continued to keep a low profile.
Nowadays, the mother's wife is getting better, and the various ills in the court are becoming more and more serious. It's time to do it.
Gu Yantao, a falcon, is also strong and should be released.
It's just that the emperor lacks an opportunity.
Gu Jinzhi's appearance gave the emperor this opportunity.
What the emperor wants to deal with is not only those powerful ministers who rely on the old and sell the old, but also the huge brothers of his two guards.
The Empress Dowager's illness delayed a lot of things, and also made many people take it lightly, thinking that the emperor had not paid attention to their disobey.
In fact, the emperor saw it all in his eyes.
There are 60,000 elite soldiers in the Nanchang Palace and 60,000 in the King of Luyang. If they join hands and wave their army to the north and go straight to the capital, the emperor will be caught off guard.
These two younger brothers, one was raised by his mother, and he has been loyal many times; the other is stupid.
Is this the way for the emperor to feel at ease?
Put a sharp knife on the Buddha and always put it on the emperor's back vest.
Once he gets out of control, the knife will stab him.
What can my own brother do? The emperor didn't believe both of them. The king of Luyang is stupid. If the king of Nanchang wants to commit a crime and encourage the king of Luyang, the king of Luyang has no judgment at all. If he is stupid, he will definitely borrow troops.
In fact, the emperor is most afraid of the King of Nanchang.
King Luyang... After all, he is the younger brother of his mother's compatriot. The emperor has a deep affection for the empress dowager. From his heart, he also prefers the king of Luyang.
The emperor was also happy to use the marriage of Gu Jinzhi and the king of Luyang to openly imprison the king of Luyang and the king of Nanchang in the capital, and then send someone to solve the guard army of the Nanchang Palace and the Luyang Palace, so as to reach the army of surrender without fighting.
There was a smile on the corners of his lips.
Finally, something has been settled.
Next, he only needs to lift Gu Yantao, and the net will be scattered, waiting for the time to be ripe to close the net.
It's just that how can Gu Yantao be praised, which not only scares the snake to the suspicion of the Tan family and Yuanping Marquis, but also has outstanding effect?
The emperor was also distressed.
Unfortunately, there is only one Gu Jinzhi, which is not enough for him to make two places.
——*——*——
Gu Jinzhi was very happy to be a concubine for the king of Luyang.
She knew that although the emperor promised this marriage, it was handed over to the Ministry of Ceremonies.
The program is cumbersome, and I'm afraid it will be tossed around for a year and a half.
The king of Luyang can also live in Beijing for another year and a half, and the Empress Dowager was so happy that there were tears in her eyes.
Zhong Jun married Gu Jinzhi and was able to stay with the Empress Dowager for a few more days. The Empress Dowager's heart for the youngest son also slowly let go.
She called Aunt Cheng and asked her to go to the warehouse of Kunning Palace to look through 28 boxes of gifts, and send her off when Gu Jinzhi came home tomorrow.
"I'm going to marry my daughter-in-law again!" The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "Go and bring the jewelry box of the Ai family, which was brought when the Ai family entered the palace..."
When the Empress Dowager entered the palace, her mother gave her a pair of Hetian mutton jade bracelets.
One, the empress dowager gave it to the emperor's previous empress; one, she kept one for Zhongjun's princess.
She thought she would have to wait for three or five years. I don't know, I can get it out now.
The Empress Dowager is very happy.
Aunt Cheng was also happy. She went out quickly and invited Gu Jinzhi.
The Empress Dowager was very cautious and personally brought it for her: "When I entered the palace, I only took this pair of jade bracelets. Although it is not the best thing, it is the heart of the family. One is given to the first queen, and this one is yours. Wear it well. You are the daughter-in-law of the Ai family, and the Ai family likes it the most..."
Gu Jinzhi said thank you.
She didn't dislike Zhong Jun's look at all, which moved the Empress Dowager even more.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with Zhong Jun. He is just... At the age of thirteen, he is still like a six or seven-year-old child. Be naive, but you don't lose kindness. You know what's good or bad, you're not stupid and stupid!
Some people in the world finally understand Zhong Jun.
The Empress Dowager took Gu Jinzhi to gossip for half a day, thinking that she would go home again tomorrow, so she let her go to bed first, and then continued to let Aunt Cheng and the palace people pack up the gifts.
"Tomorrow, I will specially allow you to leave the palace and send Jinzhi back." The Empress Dowager said to Aunt Cheng, "Go to her house and have a look. I vaguely remember that Duke Gu said that his family was still in Sanyuanpo Hutong. The houses in that place are very tight. If you don't live well, come back and tell your family. My daughter-in-law, you can't be wronged.
Aunt Cheng said yes.
On the third day of February, the spring snow has not melted, but it has added snow color.
The streets are all white, the whole capital is pure, and the eyes are wider.
The eunuch in charge of Kunning Palace sent the little eunuch out of the palace early in the morning to inform the Gu family that the seventh lady of their family is coming back today and let Qingdao welcome her.
The whole family was in an uproar again.
They don't know what Gu Jinzhi did when he went into the palace; they don't know what's going on now.
Uncle Gu Yantao ordered his servants to sweep the road.
The snow stopped at noon. As soon as it passed, a servant came to inform Gu Yantao that Miss Seven was back. Eunuch Chang and Aunt Cheng, the chief eunuch of the Empress Dowager Kunning Palace, sent it back in person. More than 20 things were carried behind, all of which were silk, satin, jewelry and toys, which were full and
Gu Yantao often walks in the palace, and naturally knows what the weight of the father-in-law Chang is.
He jumped up all of a sudden. He didn't have time to change his clothes, didn't wear chopping, stepped on the snow, and flew to the gate.
