Chapter 716 Tit-for-tat and stubborn

Nine deep palaces, thick city high walls, still can't stop the warmth of the spring breeze.

The Empress Dowager also had a very lively day on the first day of March.

Although it is limited to the palace, the empress dowager has long heard that those indignant imperial historians intended to fight with a group of young supervisors and "rookies" of the Hanlin Academy. She didn't hear it. As soon as this happened, King Kang was the first to be shocked, so she came immediately. Ci'an Palace asked for an order, and the Empress Dowager lost her previous fear of the concubine and sincerely comforted her - don't be impatient.

As soon as King Kang left, the empress dowager's face turned cold.

Since the "self-invitation and separation", although the empress dowager was determined to stir up this matter, she was bound not let the Qin family succeed, but she secretly observed and found that the above officials were "idle" on the surface - not Qin Xiang's party members.

Is it possible that the emperor did it himself?

The Empress Dowager thought of this possibility and gritted her teeth more and more to hate the Qin family - such a great ability to persuade the emperor to be greedy and selfish for the Qin family and mobilize the officials to coax the clan. How can a king and emperor of a country expose himself to do this "family scandal"?

But if this is really the case, saying that tomorrow's determination has been made, it is bound to try its best to suppress the Duke of the State of Wei and reuse Qin's followers, then at first her plan to persuade the emperor to "turn back to the shore" will become more difficult.

Do you really want to make trouble with the emperor's red-faced and dissociated from your grandparents and grandchildren for this matter?

The Empress Dowager is really a little embarrassed.

I have been worried for several days. Even if the wind is suddenly beautiful, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and the Empress Dowager's mood is always hazy.

However, after the early morning, the people who relieved the worries of the Empress Dowager came forward.

It's not someone else, but one of the protagonists of this incident in recent days, Yu Yu, the king of Chu.

He has been on sick leave for many days. He did not "stop on duty" as usual in the rainy days. On this day, the weather was fine before he came to cancel the leave.

However, Yu Yu was silent when he was standing on duty, but he held a stack of chapters to come to Ci'an Palace after the dispersing of the dynasty.

Directly presented to the Empress Dowager and simply skipped the emperor.

Several chapters are impeachment!

In the past few days, "being filled with righteous indignation" was sure that Princess Chu was "innoclawful" and the king of Chu ignored the reputation of the clan.

Yu Yu didn't even find someone to cover it up. At the end of this chapter, it was his "big name".

The Empress Dowager opened a look and was not angry, but laughed out loud.

There is a ridiculous bad account behind those royal historians who are "right and honest" and worried about the reputation of the clan.

Some people dislike the bad chaps and stop their wives from marrying them.

Some people seize the wealth of their relatives and think that they have the capital to enter the official.

Some people are unfilial to their mother and beat their sister.

Some people corrupt the law and bribe money in the local area.

There are still people who marry the same family!

They all ignored the etiquette, but they were promoted from local donating officials to imperial history to supervise the discipline of their subjects.

After the Empress Dowager laughed, she became angry and patted the book on the case: "Although these people are not entered into officials through imperial examinations, there are also reasons for the poor official system in the past, but how can the Ministry of Officials have no consciousness?"

Yu Yu has been prepared for a long time: "I secretly observed that these imperial historians have come in close with Shang Shuzhuo of the Ministry of Officials."

He had a secret report to the empress dowager. Zhuo Shangshu was sincere to Qin early in the morning. At that time, in order to let Concubine Zhuo "help Zheng" and secretly communicate with Qin Xiang, today, Zhuo Shangshu became more and more unscrupulous. Mrs. Zhuo actually flattered Li, the wife of Sun Meng. This matter has been discussed among the wives, and many secretly disdained Zhuo Jin. The couple is servile and charming.

The Empress Dowager was like an enlightenment. Although Qin Xiang did not come forward, it was through Zhuo Jin's hand. It seemed that the emperor was not completely confused, and there was still medicine to save - at least he did not operate the knife himself. At most, Qin Huaiyu's move secretly coincided with the sacred heart, so he indulged in covering up.

In essence, there is no difference, but the degree is greatly reduced. At least if the Empress Dowager wants to attack, only Zhuo Jin and Qin Xiang are targeted.

What reassured the Empress Dowager more was that since Yu Yu was impeached and made full preparations, he was obviously going to confront Qin. He really did not want to see the alliance, and he really did not leave the scenery - although the Empress Dowager "retreated to leave" the next day after the scene, she issued an edict to Yu Yu and told him the scenery. Having been honest with the idea of He Li and asked him for his opinion, Yu Yu also knelt down and resolutely refused to leave. Next, the Empress Dowager also secretly knew that Yu Yu was "entangled", but she always had reservations.

However, when it came to Yu Yu's obvious impeachment, the Empress Dowager believed that he was a combination of words and deeds.

But he still asked, "Why doesn't Yuanyang directly go to the capital? This is a government matter, which should have been judged by the emperor.

Yu Yu also said, "I am not afraid of government affairs. In fact, it is a private grudge. These imperial histories are obviously instructed to slander my ministers. If I am not convinced, I used the Tianchawei to secretly investigate its details. The former emperor has long had a will. Tianchawei handed over to the control of the Empress. Since I used it, I wanted to ask the Empress for permission."

"Private grudge? You are honest." The Empress Dowager held her forehead, shook her head and smiled bitterly: "Well, the marriage between Jing and your family was also particularly optimistic about the former emperor and the mourning family at the beginning. You are really gratified that you can plan for each other like this. I have left the folded son. Whether it is public or private, the mourning family will not investigate too much."

Yu Yu couldn't afford to bow, and sincerely felt the empress dowager's sympathy.

The Empress Dowager asked again: "Just to investigate the wrong responsibility of these people, Zhuo Jin will also be implicated. These imperial historians do not practice their personal morality, and even violate the national law!" He is an official, but he has taken care of this in vain. In fact, he is not in charge of office. He is far away. I am sorry to ask you, who is qualified for the position of minister of the Ministry of Officials at present?

Even if the imperial examination is appointed as an official, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials is still important. Although the Empress Dowager was entrusted by the former emperor to supervise the government, in fact, she does not know much about the officials in the DPRK. Although Yu Yu is young, she is trusted by the previous emperor and has been in charge of the heavens for many years. She has been far better conduct of government affairs and people and even many officials than the Empress Dowager, and even as Today, I know better that the empress dowager took the initiative to inquire. Although she also had some temptation, she was also sincere.

Yu Yu did not avoid his relatives - he directly mentioned Su Zhi's name.

The cabinet seems to be empty at present. Su Yu has been idle for more than two years. Although the empress dowager has long had the intention to grant practical duties, the emperor is extremely resistant, and the empress dowager has more or less taken into account the harmony with the emperor, so she has to give up.

At this time, he sighed: "Su Yi had experienced local practice, and then had to re-enter the cabinet. He was indeed familiar with government affairs and personnel, but... Duke Wei and he were his direct brothers, one in charge of the imperial army and a noble. If Su Yi was appointed as a minister of the Ministry of Officials at this time, the Su family would be more powerful. "

In fact, the Empress Dowager thinks there is nothing wrong with this, but the emperor will definitely oppose it to the end.

Yu Yu recommended another person: "Wei Ji resigned because of illness, but now he has recovered a lot. I think it may be useful."

The Empress Dowager pondered for a while and nodded slightly.

Wei Ji's story of being sick at the beginning was just a false statement. The real reason is that he changed his master. His left prime minister needed to be virtuous and let Chen replace him. The Empress Dowager also thought that although Wei Ji was not talented, he was safe and not possessed by power. He had been an official for many years, and of course he was also familiar with government affairs and personnel, which was more critical. Gu Yuwen, Wei Ji's son-in-law, was trusted by the emperor, and he took over the official department, and the emperor would not have any intention of resisting.

That's it! The Empress Dowager only felt a stuffy chest before expressing it. Her fear of Yu Yu unconsciously decreased a little. No wonder that before the death of the former emperor, many instructions said that Dalong would implement the imperial examination as an official in the future, cultivate emerging forces to weaken the situation of powerful and nobles, and finally realize the reform of the military system to recover the military power, although it is inseparable from the Duke of Weiguo. Strong support, not to mention Yu Yu's plan to draw a finale. At that time, the Empress Dowager still had reservations. First, she believed that the king of Chu had relied on local military power to consolidate her power. Yu Yu Yu may not necessarily agree with the military power. Second, she also believed that Yu Wei could not reach the crown for several years and did not stand up. She really suspected that he had such ability.

After this incident, the Empress Dowager changed her outlook again. If Yu is really greedy, as long as she compromises with the emperor and fights with the Qin family, the situation will naturally become more chaotic. That is, Yu Yu is more optimistic about the Duke of Wei and does not intend to abandon the Soviet Qin, so why not recommend his own cronies to take over the official department? Instead, he mentioned Su Yi and Wei Ji.

The Duke of Wei and Su Qi are not the people who have lost the law and take care of privacy. The Empress Dowager can be trusted. As for Wei Ji, it is also a national relative - the former prince was not abolished, but died in the throne. When the former emperor reigned, he set his title of Prince Gongping. Concubine Wei is also the Empress Dowager now. Although Wei Eleven has a good relationship with Yijing, the Empress Dowager of the Empress Dowager naturally does not He will think that because of the handkerchief of the woman, Wei Ji will be compatible with the king of Chu.

This is indeed the case. Even if the families have a good relationship, if there is no in-law relationship, there is a conflict of interest, and it is impossible to "sake themselves as a person". Even if there is a friendship of in-laws and interests are bound, most of them are not impregnable.

In a word, Yu Yu's recommendation to raise Fu Weiji to replace Zhuo Jin is not selfish. Whether it is the Empress Dowager or the emperor, it is pros or bad.

Of course, there is a huge difference between the pros and cons of Qin Xiang. In Qin Xiang's eyes, Wei Ji is a party of the Duke of Wei, and Gu Yuwen is even more eye-catching. How can it be compared with Zhuo Jin?

If Yu's goal is achieved, of course, he will not stay in Ci'an Palace for a long time and leave in due course.

The Empress Dowager was planning how to have a showdown with the emperor, and this day the emperor came.

It made Eunuch Li bring a bunch of memorials, claiming that many imperial historians have written repeatedly, and the innocence of Princess Chu has also caused a lot of noise and can't be suppressed. It is really inappropriate to destroy the reputation of the royal family. I hope that the Empress Dowager will make a decision as soon as possible.

The Empress Dowager also read those memorials from a good stream - good guy, sharp words, righteous and strict words, interestingly, all the corrupt people of Yu Yu's impeachment, not missing a net.

The Empress Dowager also handed over Yu Yu's memorial and asked the emperor, "Do you know the virtues of these people?"

The emperor's face is blue.

The impeachment is all made by Yu Yu, but in the eyes of the emperor, he is the master behind the empress dowager!

Not to mention that the Empress Dowager would "negotiate" Zhuo Jin's official position and blame him.

The emperor is still stubborn: "Even if these officials are impeached by the king of Chu, the princess of Chu does hurt the royal reputation."

The Empress Dowager snorted coldly: "Doesn't the emperor think that the royal family can save its reputation by relying on rumors and a few scheming people alone? Holy Spirit! These officials are all people who care about etiquette. How can they believe their words? The emperor should not fight with the mourning family. Don't you know that Qin Huaiyu is making waves after this storm?

As soon as she said this, the Empress Dowager was angry and unbearable: "The late emperor had a will to make you use Su and Chu to guard against Qin and Chen, and the Chen family is fine. The mourning family also knows that the Empress Dowager is dedicated to you and is not selfless. Chen Xiang's greed is limited, but Qin Huaiyu is different! If he hadn't provoked him later, how would the emperor be afraid to defend the Duke? Does the emperor intend not to obey the will of the previous emperor? The emperor said urgently, why did you insist on abolishing the concubine of King Chu, and why did you force Yuanyang to marry Qin before? Let me ask you, is it possible to become the Qin clan, just because Qin Qi admires the king of Chu, regardless of the reputation of the family and condoning Qin Qitian's shameless behavior? Qin Huaiyu has a clear intention and wants to get the help of the king of Chu to constrain the imperial power!"

"Does the emperor only believe in the Qin family and ignore the opinions of the previous emperors? Does the emperor still have filial piety for his son and the king's father?

"Since the emperor ascended the throne, there have been many absurdities in his actions, and the mourning family has a lot of tolerance, mostly based on persuasion, but if the emperor is single-inviting... The mourning family has to ask for the will of the emperor!"

These words made the emperor panic and couldn't sit down. He got up and listened to the lecture.

But he is really unwilling!

How could he not know Qin Huai's foolish desire, but if it hadn't been for the warning before the death of the previous emperor, there would have been many constraints that forced him to reuse Qin and Chen!

The former emperor clearly had an order on him, but he did not leave an edict, so that he could not speak up to his name!

Su and Chu only acted under the order of the Empress Dowager. How can they not be afraid?

At present, his opponent is not the Qin family, but the Empress Dowager, Yan and Su!

There is also the king of Chu, who originally planned to divide and rule, so he tolerated the Qin family, but he did not intend to achieve marriage between Qin and Chu.

But he didn't expect that Yu Yu couldn't get in, flattered the Ci'an Palace and didn't look at his emperor.

In this way, she can only force Princess Chu to commit a capital crime. If Yu Wei wants to insist on acting recklessly, then let him and his wife die together to see if the king will still stand by and see his only son buried with him without abandoning the secret.

In any case, we can't abandon the Qin family in this situation.

The emperor was obedient on the surface, but he was full of conspiracy to say goodbye.

The Empress Dowager did not prevent the thought that the emperor had broken the boat, so she felt relieved, but she was come to the door by the queen - this is really a "ghost crying and howling" posture.
