Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 189 No one is simple

The Forbidden City at night looks quiet and mysterious.

The moonlight shone on the majestic hall, not as brilliant as when the lights were brightly lit, but a little softer.

In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Qiyu was sitting by the desk, wearing a cloak woven with golden dragon patterns, and the whole hall was very warm from the fire.

He just held a scroll in his hands, looking at it ecstatically.

If there is any change in living a new life, it is that Zhu Qiyu has stricter management of his living habits.

In his previous life, although there were only five or six concubines in his harem, he was obsessed with his heart and always wanted to have a few more children. Although it was not a night of singing and dancing, he never stopped.

It's a pity that in the end, there was only one more prostitute.

Now that he has seen the ups and downs of a hundred years, he regards the matter of heirs much less.

The child's interest depends on the destiny.

Doing it too hard will only damage your body.

Therefore, during the ten-month period, he spent a small half of the time in the Qianqing Palace, and the rest of the time in the Kunning Palace, and only went to the Chuxiu Palace of the Hang family for a few days.

In addition, if it is not a festival, otherwise, there will be basically no banquet in the palace at night, and he himself will rest on time at Haishi.

But today, obviously he made an exception.

The palace door was quietly pushed open, and Cheng Jing approached lightly, and said.

"My lord, I just got the news that Uncle Da Zong was invited to Duke Cheng's mansion. After a while, Duke Feng was sent out by Young Master Zhu."

"Looking at it, it seems that the two sides are not talking smoothly. When Feng Guogong went out, his face was very unhappy, and Zhu Xiaogong kept apologizing."

Zhu Qiyu put down the scroll in his hand and asked.

"Lu Zhong, did you answer?"

Cheng Jing took out a sealed memorial from his sleeve, handed it to the case, and replied.

"According to your instructions, Commander Lu waited at Duke Feng's mansion early in the morning. As soon as Mr. Li came back, Commander Lu asked the situation clearly. This is a secret, please read it."

Zhu Qiyu opened the envelope, took it out and read it carefully, after reading it, he couldn't help chuckling and said.

"Hu Wei, it's no wonder that he is a veteran of Emperor Taizong, and he is indeed very smart."

With that said, he passed the secret to Cheng Jing.

After reading it, Cheng Jing frowned, puzzled.

"My lord, since Uncle Da Zong has understood what you mean, what is his move?"

As the first thing to do for the emperor, Li Xian naturally did his best.

Although this secret was sent by Lu Zhong, it was written by Li Xian himself.

Almost from the moment he entered the door until he left, every detail of the response was written carefully.

Naturally, this also included Li Xian's own guesses and doubts.

Obviously the talk was good, he was going to help Cheng Guogong's mansion, but Hu Wei didn't give half of the face, and drove him away when he came up.

Zhu Qiyu chuckled lightly and said.

"Of course it was for me to see!"

Stretching his waist, Zhu Qiyu glanced at Cheng Jing and said.

"Don't underestimate this great uncle. The person who can find Jianwen for Emperor Taizong is smart, resourceful, and good at seeing, but everything is the same!"

"Li Xian only saw that he was helping Cheng Guogong's mansion, but in fact, in Hu Mei's view, this just pushed Cheng Guogong's mansion to the forefront."

Seeing that Cheng Jing still had doubts, Zhu Qiyu explained.

"Actually, even without Li Xian's help, in a few years, I will still give the Duke of Cheng this title."

"After all, the lineage of the Duke of Chengguo's family has made outstanding military exploits and made great contributions to the country. If the title is completely cut off because of the defeat in the First World War, it will inevitably make the honorable relatives complain to me."

"What's more, being strong in the court and weak in the military is not a long-term solution. These three hereditary mansions are the only remaining cornerstones of honor and relatives, and they are also a symbol, which cannot be easily shaken."

"Hu Wei knows this very well, so he hopes that after a few years, the situation will stabilize, and he will find an opportunity, such as the Donggong's exit from the cabinet, to take advantage of the opportunity to help Zhu Yi get back the title."

"It's justified, but there are no waves, and it's easier to survive in the court in peace and stability."

"But now, this plan has been completely destroyed by Li Xian, how can he not be angry?"

What Zhu Qiyu said was what Hu Yan had done before.

In the previous life, something happened to Duke Cheng's mansion, Hu Wei, who always loved his daughter, just sat by and ignored him, allowing Zhu Yi to run around without saying a word.

All over the court, some people even felt that he was a little heartless.

But later, when Zhu Yi had nothing to do and could only thank guests behind closed doors in the mansion, Hu Wei took the opportunity of changing the East Palace to recover the title for Duke Cheng's mansion.

Not only that, but the old man also wrote the first book of the chicken thief, saying that the East Palace is newly established, and the world should be amnesty, but if the title is directly restored, it seems that the imperial court will have nothing to do with the defeat.

Therefore, it is suggested to restore the title of Duke Cheng, but the salary should be halved.

At that time, Zhu Qiyu was immersed in the joy of successfully changing the new prince, so he approved it without much thought.

Looking back now, I realized just how terrifying the old man's plan was.

He can restrain himself, not to make a move at an inappropriate time, and after making a move, he can deftly avoid all risks for Duke Cheng's government.

You know, even if there is no matter of changing the prince, in a few years, when the prince leaves the pavilion to study, the world will be pardoned as usual.

At this time, taking advantage of the situation to reclaim the title is much more likely to succeed than bringing up the matter of resuming the title right after the end of the war.

And in this way, because of the name of amnesty for the world, people will not think that Cheng Guogong's government is too outstanding to join the new emperor.

After this incident, although the power of Duke Chenguo's family among his relatives has been weakened a lot, neither the restoration of Nangong nor other disturbances have implicated Chengguo Duke's mansion.

This old man's ability to view the situation and avoid risks is the number one in today's court!

Of course, in this life, with such a stupefied young man like Li Xian who speaks for Cheng Guogong's mansion with "good intentions and good intentions", Hu Wei's plan may be in vain.

Cheng Jing understood, but still did not open his brows, but asked.

"The courtiers can understand Uncle Dazong's intentions, but you also said, the emperor, that Duke Feng's meddling will surely realize that Duke Cheng's mansion has fallen into your eyes. You should know that the restoration of the title is hard to stop."

"Then why does he still have such an attitude towards Duke Feng? Shouldn't he take advantage of the situation to build a good relationship with Duke Feng?"

Planning is planning, but reality is reality.

Cheng Jing has dealt with so many government affairs these days and met so many bigwigs in the imperial court, so he naturally knows that for them, emotions are emotions, and interests are interests.

They will never interfere with their judgment and take actions that affect their own interests because of their emotions.

Since Cheng Guogong's mansion is inevitable, it must become a pawn in the hands of the emperor.

So at this time, it is natural to have a good relationship with Feng Guogong, the emperor and his former hot relative.

How could you be so rude to push people away?
"Could it be that Uncle Da Zong is expressing dissatisfaction with the emperor through Duke Feng?"

Cheng Jing asked with some hesitation.

Obviously, he didn't think that Hu Wei would be such an unwise person.

"That's his cleverness!"

Zhu Qiyu stepped out of the palace gate, looked at the night in the distance, and said softly.

"Cheng Jing, I'm here to ask you, if you have two subordinates with similar abilities, backgrounds, and influences, do you want them to be like a family and close, or do you want them to be dissatisfied with each other and compete to express themselves?"
