Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 677 This is called, salute!
In the flower hall of Duke Cheng's mansion, the fragrance of tea rose, and the warm sunlight fell on the hall and hit the two people.

Zhu Yi and Xu Youzhen sat up and down separately, but they looked up at each other in unison, with inexplicable lights flashing in their eyes.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little tense, Xu Youzhen looked at the calm Zhu Yi in front of her, couldn't help but put a smile on her face, leaned forward slightly, and said leisurely.

"There's nothing wrong with it, but, although Xu is dull in nature, he has a sense of curiosity. There are several places where he can't understand what the young man said. If he goes back with doubts, I'm afraid it will be difficult. Mian, I always wanted to understand it, but under no choice, Xu came to visit rashly, wanting to ask the young master to clarify his doubts."

Zhu Yi's heart sank, but she could barely maintain her complexion.

Although these words were polite, the threatening meaning in them was very strong. The implication was that if Zhu Yi couldn't solve his doubts, then he would find other ways to solve his doubts.

As for the method, it is nothing more than going to Jiao Jing, Zhu Jian and others.

After quickly reviewing her actions in the British government, Zhu Yi still didn't expect that there was something wrong with her that aroused Xu Youzhen's suspicion.

So, he had no choice but to stand still, and paused for a while, a little coolness appeared on Zhu Xiaogong's expression, and said.

"Xu Xueshi has something to say, just ask, but, no matter who is behind you, I hope this is the last time. Cheng Guogong is willing to cooperate with you with the greatest sincerity, but this kind of sincerity does not It cannot be consumed indefinitely!"

These two sentences made Xu Youzhen stunned.

Seeing Zhu Yi's slightly angry expression, he immediately reacted.

It turned out that his actions, in Zhu Yi's opinion, should be a continuation of the quarrel in the British government. In other words, Zhu Yi felt that Xu Youzhen did not come here on behalf of himself, but for Jiao Jing or Zhu Jian. tentative.

After hesitating for a while, Xu Youzhen decided to make the mistake. Anyway, it is better for someone to take the blame than to have no one to take the blame. Since Zhu Yi thought so, then he went downhill. In this way, he spoke less. A little scrupulous.

So, in just a split second, an awkward smile appeared on Xu Youzhen's face, as if someone had exposed her.

A little flustered, but it fits the image he should have at the moment.

However, Xueshi Xu soon regained his composure and spoke.

"Young master is straightforward, if Xu Mou is hypocritical, it will appear that Xu Mou is artificial. If that is the case, then I will speak directly."

"In the British government, the little prince once said that what the Supreme Emperor did was to build momentum for His Highness the Crown Prince, to create a reputation of loyalty and filial piety for His Highness, and at the same time, to draw the attention of the courtiers from the rectification of the army to the East Palace. One thing, right?"

Zhu Yi could obviously feel that there was a pitfall in Xu Youzhen's words, but he couldn't think of anything wrong for a while, and these words were almost copying his original words in the British government, just changing the words.

So, even though she felt something was wrong, Zhu Yi still nodded slightly.

"Although this is my guess, it is also the most reasonable explanation. Otherwise, could it be that the Supreme Emperor caused such a big disturbance just because of a momentary impulse?"

After saying this, Xu Youzhen's face suddenly became a little exciting, and after a while, a strange smile appeared on his face, and said.

"Young master, do you really think it's impossible?"

Zhu Yi's expression darkened immediately, and she said in a cold voice with a displeased expression.

"Xu Xueshi, be careful! Since the Supreme Emperor returned to Beijing, although he seems to be dormant, in fact, he has the style of a hero in everything. How can you speculate on his old man so arbitrarily?"

The words were filled with anger, with the attitude of a loyal dog of the Supreme Emperor, as if the next word disagreed, and he was going to drive people away.

However, facing Zhu Yi's performance, Xu Youzhen didn't have any special reaction, instead she smiled and said.

"Young master, don't worry. You and I both know what kind of disposition the Supreme Emperor is. However, Xu also admits that in contact with the Supreme Emperor, Xu is indeed not as convenient as the young master who was able to enter the palace frequently. Perhaps , Maybe it was Xu who misjudged the case."

"However, it's still the same sentence. In what the young master said, Xu was a little confused, so I asked the young master to clarify."

On the surface, Xu Youzhen's words were a concession, but in fact, he pressed Zhu Yi every step of the way.

Gently pressing her hand on the armrest beside her, Xu Youzhen continued to speak, saying.

"The young master's statement is indeed logical, whether it is in terms of the results or the reaction of Princess Changde, it is very reasonable."

"Although this matter, no matter whether it is with the Supreme Emperor or His Royal Highness, the eldest princess, this matter cannot be verified, but each has its own reasons and can be justified."

"It's just that there is a big loophole in it."

At this point, Xu Youzhen raised her head, her eyes were piercing, she stared at Zhu Yi closely, and asked.

"According to the young man, everything the Supreme Emperor does is for His Royal Highness. Then, the most critical step is that after the Supreme Emperor makes the decree, the Emperor will ask the Crown Prince to perform etiquette. In this way, all It just made sense."

"However, it happens to be the most important step, and the initiative is completely out of the hands of the Supreme Emperor. Isn't that strange?"

Zhu Yi's heart sank, and there was also a bit of chill in the eyes that looked at Xu Youzhen.

However, his face was still calm, and he said lightly.

"What's so strange about this? Since the Son of Heaven doesn't even bother to salute the Supreme Emperor on the winter solstice, how can he really follow the will of the morning and evening? Under such circumstances, it is most appropriate for His Royal Highness to act on his behalf."

"So, this is just the most appropriate way!"

As soon as Zhu Yi finished speaking, Xu Youzhen's voice followed.

"But it's not the only way!"

He was still looking at Zhu Yi, with an inexplicable light in his eyes, and said.

"The Supreme Emperor's decree is only a decree after all. Although it is supported by etiquette and law, it is quite suspected of being angry after summoning Xue Huan. In this case, even if the emperor Directly refusing to obey the imperial edict, the government and the public, I am afraid that it will not cause too much disturbance."

"Of course, if the emperor is not willing to take such a risk, then it is easier to ask the cabinet to draft a letter, saying that the government is busy and the state affairs are heavy. Thank the Supreme Emperor for his concern and hand it to Nangong. It is also a brother and a friend. Gong, the scene of family harmony.”

"Otherwise, if you don't even bother to do this kind of face-saving work, the emperor can also be like Xue Consort, evading it by saying that he is in poor health and that it is inconvenient to see each other. In this way, he only needs to send someone to spread the word, and everything can be eliminated."

"Though all these are not the most appropriate methods, they are all available methods. How to do it is actually in the hands of the emperor."

"Then, if the Supreme Emperor really planned for a long time, it was just to achieve the goal of getting the East Palace out of the pavilion. This is the most critical step, but he can't control it."

"Isn't the old man afraid that he would make such a big fuss, but in the end he would fight and get nothing?"
