Chapter 407 Controversy
The autumn chrysanthemums in the imperial garden are in full bloom at this time, yellow, pink, and white. Dazzling**. As long as you get a little closer to this garden, you can smell the fragrance of each strand.
The emperor looked at the chrysanthemums and said, "Chen'er, it seems that you haven't played the piano for a long time? Are you interested in playing a piece?"
Yuchen smiled and nodded in agreement.
The emperor said with some regret: "It's a pity that the crabs are out of the market now." Otherwise, it would be a great enjoyment to enjoy the chrysanthemums while eating crabs and listening to Chen'er's piano.
The melodious and melodious sound of the piano allowed the emperor to temporarily forget the tedious government affairs and countless troubles.
Yan Wushuang, who was passing by the Imperial Garden, stopped when he heard the sound of the zither, and asked the palace man on duty: "Who is playing the zither here?" Those who can play the zither in the Imperial Garden must not be ordinary people.
The palace man got a red envelope, and said in a low voice: "Today, the emperor became upbeat and took the empress for a walk in the garden. This beautiful piano sound should be played by the empress."
When Yan Wushuang heard this, a smile appeared on his face: "The emperor and the empress are really affectionate and loving." The world is full of rebels, and the emperor still has such a sense of elegance, such concentration, even he wants Say admiration.
The next day, the doctor Yu Shi wrote a letter, suggesting that the emperor choose a concubine. The reason for the royal doctor is very good, and the emperor's heirs are weak. So far, the emperor has only one heir, Zhou Yan. Although Zhou Yan is now healthy and healthy, the emperor only has one son, which is too few. Once something goes wrong, it will be a big deal.
The emperor was not disgusted with the selection of concubines. Because he himself felt that one son was too little, but he delayed it because he was keeping his filial piety before: "I will leave this matter to the queen."
In the next government affairs, the discussion will not be so pleasant. It doesn't mean that taxes in the south of the Yangtze River are reduced, or that local officials don't obey orders, or that there is a suppression of rebellion.
The emperor's good mood was swept away.
At this time, the elder of the Yu family stood up and made a suggestion that made the emperor feel angry, that is, the imperial court could agree to Yunqing's request and appoint him as the governor of the Northwest.
Originally, Yu Xiang passed away, and the people of Yu's family should worry about it. But the emperor seized his love, so the elder of the Yu family did not have Ding You, but still held the position of Minister of the Ministry of Officials.
Although the first emperor set fire to many ministers and killed them, half of the officials who were promoted later were from the Yu family. The proposal of the elder of the Yu family naturally won the support of people from their faction.
Marquis Taining strongly objected: "Your Majesty, this is absolutely unacceptable. If Yunqing is appointed Governor of the Northwest, where is the majesty of the court?" Those who hold heavy soldiers in the local area must follow suit and support themselves, and the court will be an empty shell by then.
The emperor felt depressed and said, "We will discuss this matter later." The problem now is that Yunqing and the Han family want the title of prince, not the position of governor. But because this is a private contact between the empress and the Han family, it must not be said in court.
After the court, several important officials went to the imperial study. The elder of the Yu family said: "Your Majesty, you have appointed Yun Qing as the governor of the Northwest. At that time, the imperial court can send officials to serve in the Northwest." Sending officials to the Northwest is tantamount to meddling in the internal affairs of the Northwest. The Han family can also inquire about news and cause trouble for them. If nothing is done and the Northwest is allowed to develop, then the Northwest will become China.
The emperor said: "Yunqing and the Han family are no longer satisfied with the position of a governor." After saying this, he glanced at everyone and said: "The Han family's request is that the court must give Yunqing a prince. The affairs of the Northwest are in charge of their husband and wife." How could he, as the king of a country, agree to such a shameful condition.
Yan Wushuang, who has always been an invisible person,
He stood up and said, "Your Majesty, face is important, but face is even more important." With what happened to the former emperor, the royal family would have no face at all.
The elder of the Yu family thought about it, and also thought that Han's and Yunqing's requirements could be met. After conferring the Han family and Yunqing, they can travel to the northwest. As long as people going to the northwest have to use it, the northwest cannot be as smooth as it is now.
Marquis Taining and Master Lu Er will remain silent.
The emperor was silent for a while and still did not answer. As Marquis Taining said before, if he agrees to Han's request, there will be endless troubles in the future.
When the elder of the Yu family returned to Yu's mansion, he received bad news: "Wu Kuo fled to the northwest? Did you find the account book and list?" What Wu Meng did for the Yu family was not only Provide financial support to the Yu family, and also help the Yu family win over local officials and select talents.
Yu Chunhao said: "The account book and list have been found [UU Kanshu 00kxs]. However, the money hidden by Wu Meng has not been found yet. I have already had people test Wu Qian, but Wu Qian does not know where the money went .” Wu Meng had indeed hidden a sum of money behind Yu’s back. This money was accumulated over time, not overnight, otherwise, it would not be hidden from the family.
The elder of the Yu family said: "This money must be found." The accumulation of more than 20 years is not a small amount.
After a pause, the elder of the Yu family said again: "This matter must be kept secret, and no one else can find out." I don't know how many people are staring at their Yu family. Since Yu Xiang passed away, the elder of the Yu family has become more and more careful in his actions.
Yu Chunhao nodded and said: "Don't worry, Dad, I will be careful." In the mansion, the emperor has placed a lot of people.
After talking about the matter of the Wu family, the elder of the Yu family said to Yu Chunhao: "The Han family agreed to submit to the court only because they wanted Yunqing to be conferred the title of prince by the court." In fact, everyone in the world already knew that the Northwest was out of the control of the court. The emperor refused to agree for fear of losing face, but it was just deception.
Yu Chunhao said: "The emperor should be able to figure it out." Except for the old man of the Yu family, everyone else in the prime minister's house is Ding You at home. If it really recovers after three years, the day lily is probably cold, so the Yu family now hopes to muddy the water as much as possible.
Knowing this, Qiu Dashan said to Yan Wushuang quite unfairly: "Master, this matter must never be agreed to. If Yunqing can be canonized as king, master, you will be a head shorter than Yunqing." It's the title of the Duke of the country. If Yunqing is canonized as king, wouldn't he be at a disadvantage.
Yan Wushuang smiled and said: "Whether it's a duke or a king, it's just a way for the emperor and the court to win people over. Don't worry about it." If you care, you will lose.
Qiu Dashan said: "Master, the dukes and kings can be changed for the time being. But you can't just let the brothers live in the suburbs? If this continues, the brothers will rust." This army is like a sword , If you don't use it for a long time, it will become blunt. Moreover, many people in the army are dissatisfied with staying in the suburbs, and some have even called out to return to Liaodong.
Yan Wushuang said: "It won't take too long." After saying this, Yan Wushuang waved everyone down.
Although Qiu Dashan was full of problems, he knew Yan Wushuang's temperament, and since he didn't want to explain it clearly, he expressed that he didn't want them to know.
Seeing Qiu Dashan, Tie Kui asked, "Brother's face is so ugly, what's wrong?" Coming from Yan Wushuang, he was either troubled or angry.
Qiu Dashan talked about the matter for a while, and then said: "I don't know what the master's plans are?" Qiu Dashan was very loyal to Yan Wushuang, so loyal that he would die for Yan Wushuang without blinking an eye. It is also true that every time he sees Yan Wushuang's gloomy expression, he feels very sad. Thinking about how cheerful and outgoing the master was before, no one in the Marshal's Mansion didn't like him. But now, the master's temperament is unpredictable and unpredictable. And all of this was caused by the people of the Song family and the dead dog emperor. Even the one sitting on the dragon chair may not be clean.
When Tie Kui heard that Yu Xi dared to ask the king for Yun Qing, his complexion changed slightly. But his face was full of stubble, and there was no change in his face. Of course, if Yan Wushuang was here, he would definitely be able to see the clues.
Putting aside these troubles, Qiu Dashan asked Tie Kui: "How do you think about what I told you before? That girl is really nice. After passing this village, there will be no such shop." The girl Tie Kui mentioned was Chen Shasha, the concubine daughter of Master Chen Er, younger brother of Marquis of Taining.
Tie Kui shook his head and said: "Brother, you know me. I'm a rough man. How can I match up with a girl from the Hou Mansion." Tie Kui joined the army out of ten and stayed in the barracks for the past ten years, and he hasn't married yet.
Upon hearing this, Qiu Dashan asked, "How do you say that?"
Tie Kui said: "That girl spoke like a mosquito. I just made her speak louder, and she fainted from fright." Chen Shasha was indeed a coward, but she was not as bad as Tie Kui said. It was just that Tie Kui didn't want to marry the person Qiu Dashan had chosen for him, so he deliberately scared Chen Shasha into unconsciousness. Tie Kui is not stupid, and Qiu Dashan and the nobles in the capital don't move around, and he has never had contact with Taining Hou's younger brother, Master Chen Er. Tell him about this marriage all of a sudden, you don't need to think about it, it's Yan Wushuang's order.
Qiu Dashan is loyal to Yan Wushuang, not only because of the great kindness of the Yan family to him, but also because of the love he and Yan Wushuang grew up with. But before Yan Wushuang revealed his identity, Tie Kui didn't even know that there was such a No. 1 mission, so loyalty was out of the question. It is even said that Tie Kui still hates Yan Wushuang. Because Yan Wushuang is not only suspicious, but also has a strong desire to control, everyone must listen to him and cannot oppose him, and what the people below do not satisfy him can range from beating and scolding to death. And Tie Kui was beaten and scolded by Yan Wushuang several times.
Marrying a woman who is not as courageous as a needle and going home, it is strange that life can go smoothly that day. Qiu Dashan said: "If that's the case, then this woman really can't be married. But you are too old, you have to find a wife quickly." As the eldest brother, it is also very worrying to see his brother still single at such an advanced age.
Tie Kui knew that he had to find a suitable candidate, otherwise his marriage might be manipulated by Yan Wushuang: "Brother, I also want to quickly marry a wife and have a fat boy. If there is an emergency, let us The Tie family has left a queen. But it’s not that there are too many things to do, and they are too busy!"
Qiu Dashan didn't like to hear this, and said, "Don't say such unlucky words in the future. It's nothing in case, we will live a long life."
Tie Kui said with a smile: "Well, I must live a long life." (To be continued)
