Chapter 931: 930 [Looking North]
Chapter 931 930 [Wangyan looks north]
"You bastard, how dare he? How dare he!"
In Prince Qi's palace, a cloud-patterned jade goblet that had been passed down for hundreds of years was smashed to the ground accompanied by Liu Yun's scolding, and it fell into pieces in an instant.
Facing His Royal Highness who was in a state of rage, the servant timidly picked up the pieces on the ground, then hurriedly bowed and left, fearing that he would become the target of Liu Yun's anger.
Liu Fei, Prince of Weinan County, stood aside and cautiously advised: "Your Highness, please calm down. You must not mess up your position at this moment, and the situation is quite favorable for Your Highness."
"The situation?" Liu Yun became more and more angry and said in a cold voice: "If it hadn't been for Pei Yue's troubles, today's court meeting would have been concluded. My father is the son of the Holy Emperor, and he will never openly violate the laws of his ancestors. As long as
The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty have reached a consensus, and a few people cannot affect the overall situation at all."
Liu Fei sighed softly when he heard this: "Your Majesty's attitude..."
Liu Yun turned around, walked back and sat down, and said with a gloomy face: "You don't need to mention it deliberately. I know that my father prefers Liu Xian, the hypocrite, but what is there that I can't do wrong? Since ancient times, there has always been a dispute between the heirs and the concubines.
I have not given up, but as long as I keep my original intention and have the support of so many ministers in the court, my father will not force Liu Xian to be the crown prince, otherwise why would he delay in not allowing the prince to enter the court to observe the government."
Liu Fei was slightly startled when he heard this, and subconsciously raised his eyes to look at Liu Yun. He didn't expect that His Highness the Prince could see so clearly.
Emperor Kaiping pursued a clear name in history books too much, and paid attention to the integrity of his actions, so he did not force the ministers to nod, and did not insist on abolishing the direct line and establishing the concubine.
Liu Fei put away the contempt in his heart and said solemnly: "The more this is the case, the less likely it is that your Highness will lose his sense of proportion."
Liu Yun calmed down the anger in his chest and said slowly: "Looking at the government and the public, only Pei Yue firmly supports Liu Xian. I know that Lu Gao is the person he arranged, and I also know about his wandering talk some time ago.
Xiang was effective, and most of the people who came forward today were bewitched and instigated by him."
Liu Fei nodded and said: "What His Highness said is absolutely true. In fact, this is also expected. Pei Yue knew that his Majesty would be suspicious of him sooner or later because of his great achievements. That's why he supported His Highness regardless of this, and with this, he regained the power of the Lord.
His Majesty's trust. It's a pity that we were a step too late. If we could trap him with the impeachment memorial first, his influence in the court might be greatly reduced."
Liu Yun's mood gradually calmed down and he said in a deep voice: "It's too late to talk about this now. The battle for the crown prince has been brought to the fore. Everyone's attention is on this matter. No one will care about Pei Yue's little trouble.
.At this time, if you try to catch up on issues related to the property in his name, people will think that we are retaliating. If you are not careful, it will have the opposite effect."
Liu Fei became more and more surprised that no matter what their temperaments were, Emperor Kaiping's sons seemed to be naturally good at manipulating power.
After a brief silence, he said cautiously: "Your Highness, you cannot be soft-hearted when dealing with people like Pei Yue. Only by taking a deadly blow can this trouble be completely solved."
Liu Yun's face looked uncertain. He raised his hand to touch his chin and asked, "What do you mean?"
Liu Fei nodded and said: "The reason why Pei Yue was able to gain power in the first place was due to his efforts in suppressing bandits in Hengduan Mountain. Later, he killed the only descendant of the Chen family in Lingzhou, thereby winning His Majesty's trust, and then he rose to prominence.
If that person's conclusion is correct, the descendants of the Chen family may not be dead, but as long as this flaw is caught, Pei Yue will definitely die."
Liu Yun reminded: "Don't forget, Lin He is from Silent Cloud."
Liu Fei analyzed calmly: "Your Highness, Silent Cloud will definitely not side with Pei Yue. We don't have to doubt his loyalty to His Majesty. If he has problems, Your Majesty will definitely not sit idly by. After all, the importance of Taishitai Pavilion is not It goes without saying. As for Lin He's thoughts, this man had his left hand chopped off by a descendant of the Chen family in Lingzhou. If Silent Cloud hadn't tried his best to save him, he would have become a useless person. Just talking about his hatred for Pei Yue, Lin He was not there Below anyone."
Liu Yun pondered for a moment and then asked: "Since he hates Pei Yue and the descendants of the Chen family so much, why didn't he do it directly instead of finding me through your relationship?"
Liu Fei replied: "Your Highness, Lin He is very wary of Pei Yue. In addition, Pei Yue now has a wide network of contacts in the capital. It is very likely that Pei Yue will counterattack him if he conducts an open and honest investigation. He figured out that he was unprepared and took action directly. , but the power under Pei Yue is too strong, and he may not be able to handle it with his own manpower alone, so he found Yudi."
Liu Yun pondered and said: "That makes sense, but what does Wei Guogong say?"
Liu Fei smiled and said: "Wang Jiuxuan sent a secret message, saying that Wei Guogong agreed to give it a try. With all the elites from the three parties, we will definitely be able to dig out the secrets of Pei Yue. As long as he falls like this, His Highness will lose the strongest strong support.”
After a long time, Liu Yun finally nodded and said: "You can handle this matter yourself, and I will let the palace guards obey your command."
Liu Fei was overjoyed, stood up and saluted, saying: "Foolish brother, I will definitely live up to His Highness's high expectations!"
…
The Duke's Mansion of the State of Wei.
Wang Pingzhang leaned on the soft couch, with a slightly tired look on his face, and said calmly: "Have you reached an agreement with Prince Qi's Mansion?"
Wang Jiuxuan nodded and said, "Yes, grandfather."
Wang Pingzhang sneered twice, shook his head, and warned: "Let King Qi and Lin He take charge of this matter. Remember not to come forward. The people sent out are selected from outsiders. In short, don't have anything to do with the Wang family. To put it simply, , we can send out some cannon fodder, but we cannot leave traces in this matter."
Wang Jiuxuan agreed, and then asked slightly surprised: "Grandpa, do you think this is a fraud?"
Wang Pingzhang yawned and said calmly: "I have long guessed that Chen Xizhi is not dead, otherwise Lu Min would not have committed suicide so cleanly. It is a pity that the great name of the ancestor of the Lu family was ruined in the hands of Lu Min, an infatuated person. Last year When Pei Yue came back from the Western Region, I originally planned to kill him in Gulinyi, but fortunately I rejected this idea in the end, otherwise there would be such an interesting situation now."
He looked at his eldest grandson's clear expression and smiled: "Pei Yue has always liked to take risks. You have also studied his style on the battlefield. You should know that this person is bold and careful. Even I can't find out who Qin Yuan is. Given the details of Xiang, how could Lin He find traces of the maid next to Chen Xizhi? If Pei Yue had acted so roughly, he would have become a skeleton on the battlefield long ago."
Wang Jiuxuan nodded and said: "That's right. Lin He is blinded by hatred, and Prince Qi's family thinks very highly of themselves. It's not unusual to fall into Pei Yue's scheme. But my grandson doesn't understand why his grandfather wants to sit back and watch them fall into the trap?"
Wang Pingzhang said calmly: "There are two reasons. First, His Majesty's statement at Pei Yue's wedding shows that the monarch and his ministers have reached a certain tacit understanding, so the more chaotic Kyoto is at this time, the better. This is why I did not replace Qi at the court meeting. The reason why the king is talking is that the fight for the crown prince alone is not enough, their secret confrontation will make the water even more muddy."
He put his hands on his chest, his old eyes sparkling, and continued: "Second point, I am very afraid of Silent Cloud, so I just used this opportunity to see what he is thinking. Lin He is the son of his old friend, and he is half his son. , only if he can accept the death battle between Lin He and Pei Yue can he prove his determination to cooperate with me."
Wang Jiuxuan said with admiration: "My grandson understands."
Wang Pingzhang stared at the early spring scenery outside the window and changed the topic: "Have the people sent to the wilderness come back?"
Wang Jiuxuan shook his head and said: "Not yet. If we calculate the time, he should still be on his way back now."
Wang Pingzhang's expression was cryptic, and he said slowly: "Although we need to rely on the power of the barbarians this time, we cannot really let them grow stronger. After the incident in Kyoto is over, you will personally lead the troops to the wilderness to completely solve this hidden danger."
Wang Jiuxuan lowered his head and said, "Yes, grandfather."
…
To the north of Daliang, in the heart of the wilderness.
On the bank of Xiata Mountain, three thousand barbarian warriors stood in formation like ferocious beasts.
Liejiaomi, the burly leader of the barbarians, stepped down from the altar and looked at the warriors looking up below. He felt endless heroism in his heart and raised his hand to point to the far south, roaring loudly throughout the sky.
"Go south!"
