Chapter 419 Chapter 418 Introspection
"Hmph. Don't talk nonsense. Your Highness' succession is an ancestral system. Why should such a villain behave like this? Today's solar eclipse is a warning from the heavens.

You should know that the sun is the ancestor of all yang, the appearance of the emperor, and the image of the supreme.When the ruler's morality declines and the government becomes stronger and stronger, if it invades the Yangming, the solar eclipse will respond to it.

Save the solar eclipse, so help the emperor suppress the ministers.Pingzi refused to save the solar eclipse, but he didn't do his own thing. "

Wu Shan scoffed at Gao Gong's previous remarks. Emperor Jiajing asked King Jing to leave the capital to become a vassal, and King Liuyu inherited the Datong in Beijing.

As for what Gao Gong said, today's solar eclipse is quite suspicious. Your Majesty is worried that it is some kind of hint from the heavens, and even has concerns about getting closer to the establishment of the reserve, but is there a connection between the two?
On one side is the ancestral system, and on the other hand, God warns the emperor of his immorality. The warning to the emperor of his immorality is naturally the emperor's own problem, which requires introspection.

I am the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and I am already responsible for this relationship. If I am not responsible for the rescue, I have to bear what I should bear, but I must not turn a blind eye to my own honor and disgrace, and ignore the rituals because of some shit.

I just played the solar eclipse on the day of the performance, and the Ministry of Rites held a rescue ceremony according to the law. What's wrong?

The ambulance ceremony was held in a hurry and crudely. As the minister of the Ministry of Rites, he should be punished. He admitted it, but he would never follow Qin Tianjian's statement against his conscience.

Less than three points, are you a fool in Qin Tianjian today?
From Wu Shan's point of view, the solar eclipse just now was at least five points, and it was already dark.

Gao Gong was dejected again and came out to Shangshu to be on duty. At this time, he knew that he could not prevent Wu Shangshu, the Ministry of Rites, from playing the process of rescuing the solar eclipse, which ran counter to the plan of Yuwangfu, and he did not know how this memorial would affect the actions of Yuwangfu influences.

I only hope that His Majesty will not listen to Wu Shan's words.

Gao Gong also didn't like the alchemists around Emperor Jiajing, but he was more realistic and knew that he needed the help of alchemists in this matter, unlike Wu Shan, who had clear likes and dislikes and was too rigid in his handling of things.

However, there was an accident on the side of the Ministry of Rites, and King Yu should be notified as soon as possible to see how to solve this trouble.

Although Wu Shan's statement is not wrong at all, Emperor Jiajing's loss of morality and establishment of a crown prince are indeed two irrelevant things, but the Sacred Heart is unpredictable.

When such a thing happens, it is not for you to think, but for the emperor to think.

Gao Gong came out of Shang's study, and immediately summoned his confidant and servant, and asked him to bring his note. Naturally, he described Wu Shan's refusal to listen to his advice, and insisted on going to the memorial of rescuing the solar eclipse, instead of going to "do not eat when you are not eating". "The memorial.

Seeing Jia Ding leave, Gao Gong heaved a long sigh. He didn't know whether this mistake would really affect King Yu, but he knew that he couldn't change Wu Shan's opinion.

At this moment, Gao Gong changed his previous admiration for Wu Shan, and began to loathe him.

The servant took Gao Gong's note, and quickly found King Yu's car outside Xi'an Gate, and sent Gao Gong's letter.

In Yu Wang's view, this action was still very successful. From the current point of view, almost all the alchemists agreed with the hint of Yu Wang's mansion, and Qin Tianjian's reason was strong enough.

As for the score of the solar eclipse, the benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees the wisdom, but since Qin Tianjian, as an imperial court institution, said that the solar eclipse is less than three points, it is of course correct.

When Qin Tianjian's memorandum was handed over, it coincided with their judgment, and it seemed that he would get extra points from Emperor Jiajing.

It's just that I didn't expect that the joyful mood disappeared after reading Gao Gong's letter.

Thinking about it is right, Wu Shan's persistence is well known throughout the court, right is right, wrong is wrong, good and evil are distinct, it is understandable that Gao Gong could not persuade him.

just
Prince Yu is not sure how much impact Wu Shan's memorial will have on what they are doing now if it is delivered to the emperor.

"Have you contacted all the alchemists summoned by the emperor?"

At this time, King Yu asked Li Fangdao behind him.

Regardless of whether it is Zhang Juzheng or Wei Guangde, if they persuade an alchemist, they will hand over the list to King Yu. According to what Chen Ju said before, Huang Jin asked the list of alchemists called into the palace to be drawn, and each name was ticked off. Now there are no two. up.

"It should be almost there."

Li Fang took half a step forward and bowed and replied, "There are two more people at the end, one is talking to Mr. Zhang right now, and the other one doesn't know which way to go, maybe it's outside the gate of Xiyuan right now."

"You send someone over to have a look, and inform Guangde of the rest of the list. If everything is calmed down, come here quickly to see Gu."

King Yu ordered.

"Yes."

Li Fang agreed, and called a small servant, and after ordering in a low voice, the small servant ran along the palace wall.

Of course, the servant of Prince Yu's Mansion could not enter Xiyuan, and he could not run directly to the gate through Xiyuan. He could only run along the palace wall and go to the gate of Xiyuan to inform Wei Guangde.

When the little servant ran to the place panting, he saw Wei Guangde getting off a carriage from a distance, then turned around and bowed his hands towards the carriage and retreated to the side.

Soon, the three servants who were also dressed as servants got into the carriage, and then the carriage started slowly and drove towards the gate of Xiyuan in the distance.

Without wasting time, the servant quickly ran to Wei Guangde.

Wei Guangde knew most of the people around King Yu, so when he got out of the carriage and waited for it to leave, he saw people running from a distance.

Wei Guangde didn't go back to the carriage, but stood there until the little servant ran up to him.

"What happened? You ran over in such a hurry."

Before the waiter could speak, Wei Guangde asked first.

"It should be fine, there is nothing on his face except sweat."

Chen Ju smiled on the side.

Sure enough, the servant immediately told Wei Guangde the news that Li Fang wanted to deliver.

"Master Zhang is talking to Luo Wanxiang and Immortal Luo, only Hu Dashun and Immortal Hu are left."

The little waiter finally said.

"So, everyone is already here, so let's go back."

Wei Guangde said to Chen Ju.

Chen Ju went through the list mentioned by the servant just now, and after confirming that there were no mistakes or omissions, Yu Shi nodded, "OK".

Wei Guangde pointed to the carriage that had arrived at the gate of Xiyuan in the distance, and said to the servant: "The one sitting in that carriage is Hu Dashun, everyone should have informed.

Come on, come back with us. "

After saying that, Wei Guangde and Chen Ju walked towards the carriage, and waved for the little servant to also get on the carriage.

Not long after, the carriage that Wei Guangde was riding in reunited with King Yu. When Wei Guangde and Chen Ju got off the carriage, they saw the servant who hitched a ride had already jumped out of the carriage and ran to Li Fang's side to talk something.

Wei Guangde looked helplessly at Chen Ju beside him, but Chen Ju just curled his lips.

Well, what Wei Guangde wants to say at this moment is, are all of you servants so slick and flattering, your movements are really fast, and you don't pay attention to them.

Chen Ju pursed his lips, naturally saying that this person was taught by Li Fang and has nothing to do with me.

When Wei Guangde walked over, he saluted King Yu first. Although he was considered the teacher of King Yu, he was separated by the relationship between the monarch and his ministers.

He was sent to King Yu's mansion, so he was King Yu's servant.

King Yu already knew the situation at this moment, and all the alchemists talked about it, but thinking of the news sent by Gao Gong, King Yu's supposedly happy mood dimmed again.

"Mr. Wei, take a look."

At this moment, King Yu spoke, and at the same time handed the Gao Gong letter in his hand to Wei Guangde.

Seeing King Yu's complexion, Wei Guangde knew something was wrong, but he didn't ask, but took the letter and read it carefully.

Gao Gong did not persuade Wu Shan.

After just a quick scan, Wei Guangde knew the reason why King Yu was in a bad mood, something unexpected happened.

However, Wei Guangde at this time did not feel unexpected.

If they didn't think of it when they were in Prince Yu's Mansion, Wei Guangde and Chen Ju had a lot of time to kill when they were waiting outside the gate of Xiyuan. Apart from chatting, they also talked about this incident when they had nothing to do.

At that time, Wei Guangde had already realized that Wu Shan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, was relatively difficult to deal with.

However, Wei Guangde thought, maybe Gao Gong could convince Wu Shan to make an exception because it was about King Yu.

But now it seems that Wu Shan is too principled. It is a miracle that such a person can get to where he is now.

What kind of person is Emperor Jiajing? He will never like Wu Shan, who is not obedient at all.

As for Tang Taizong Li Shimin's so-called "with copper as a mirror, you can straighten your clothes; with ancient times as a mirror, you can know the ups and downs; with people as a mirror, you can understand gains and losses." Just listen to it, and those in power will not care about these , but it's all a trick to fool people.

People who can sit in that position may make mistakes and omissions in doing things, but they will not really accept that they are wrong, but will only think that they made mistakes due to various reasons, perhaps because of poor information, or because of being misunderstood. blinded.
It is impossible for a fool to become a person in power.

Is Emperor Jiajing Tang Taizong?
Is Wu Shan Wei Zheng?

Emperor Taizong of Tang was eager to clean up his crimes, so he made a lot of "eternal stories". Perhaps because of the influence of many information from later generations, Wei Guangde tended to think that Emperor Taizong of Tang was very dishonest. Packing himself as a victim outside the city, he was forced to launch the "Xuanwumen Incident" in order to protect himself.

However, at present, the assertion that Emperor Taizong of Tang is the emperor and emperor is what scholars and civil officials need, so as to explain their role and warn the emperor's conduct at any time.

"Will Wu Shan's side affect this incident?"

King Yu asked Wei Guangde after reading the letter.

Now, Wei Guangde is the only one left beside him who can offer advice.

People he can trust, Gao Gong entered the court and went to the Ministry of Rites to do errands, Chen Yiqin returned to his hometown and Ding You, Yin Shizhen was still in Qintianjian and had not returned, Zhang Juzheng, who could barely be trusted, was still busy and had not returned.

Wei Guangde thought for a while, and said, "Wu Shangshu alone should not have a big impact."

While speaking, Wei Guangde looked at King Yu and began to express his views on this matter.

"What we want is actually the people around His Majesty. Most of them agree with what Qin Tianjian said."

Wei Guangde said here, lowered his voice and continued: "Because this is what His Majesty wants to hear."

These words are actually a bit suspicious of guessing the king's heart, which is undoubtedly a big taboo.

King Yu nodded slightly. When he was in the palace, Wei Guangde talked about the two previous solar eclipses, how Emperor Jiajing and the court responded.

It's nothing to look at alone, but when connected together, you can faintly feel that there is indeed such a meaning.

Although guessing about the Sacred Heart is not considered a crime, it was tabooed by the emperor.

Why do you say "the Sacred Heart is unpredictable", the emperor wants to give his courtiers the feeling that the Sacred Heart is unpredictable, rather than being easily seen through by you.

"But... will it really have no effect?"

Perhaps he became the authority. At this time, King Yu had already regarded himself as the crown prince, the new emperor after Emperor Jiajing.

Maybe half a year ago, when he encountered such a thing, he could still deal with it indifferently, but now it is very difficult to do so.

This incident may affect the Sacred Heart, so he can't help but deal with it cautiously.

Wei Guangde can understand King Yu's current state of mind, and of course he doesn't want the solar eclipse to affect the judgment made by Emperor Jiajing, so at this time, he didn't deny it again and give King Yu a reassurance, but began to deliberate carefully again .

From the point of view of Emperor Jiajing, seeing that Qin Tianjian and so many alchemists all held one point of view, but only Minister of Rites held a different point of view, how would he choose?

Will he consult other ministers again?

These are all things that Wei Guangde needs to consider.

If Emperor Jiajing wanted to seek the opinions of other ministers after reading the memorials of Qin Tianjian, the alchemists and Wu Shan, it would undoubtedly mean that Emperor Jiajing really moved his mind.

It's hard to judge.

Wei Guangde thought in his heart that he can only make a judgment by looking at the actions of Emperor Jiajing later, but at the moment, he can do as much as the people of the palace can do, that's all.

"Your Highness, we have already done what we should do. If there is any change, it is God's will."

Wei Guangde answered after thinking about it.

At the same time, he also felt that although he could understand the anxiety shown by King Yu just now, he still had to remind him that this was what the royal family should do as an official.

"Your Highness, you should reflect on yourself. Recently, maybe because it seems that the overall situation has been settled, you have become a little bit smug."

Although Wei Guangde was a little hesitant, worried that saying this would make Yu Wang unhappy, but he still chose to say it, which was considered a gamble.

Judging from his contact with King Yu, King Yu is a man who can listen to what he has to say. He is totally different from what he is today. He is self-willed and insists on his own views.

A person like Yu Wang, to put it bluntly, is a little lack of assertiveness, echoing what others say, and to put it nicely, it is called goodness like a stream, the image of a holy son of heaven.

Therefore, at this time, Wei Guangde said that in the past two months, Yu Wang had been acting a little drifting, and he also wanted to see if his judgment was right.

It is better to see through King Yu's character now than to understand after King Yu inherits the great treasure in the future. At least by that time, I will not make mistakes.

Hearing Wei Guangde say that he was a little carried away, although it was still reserved, Prince Yu probably understood the meaning of his words.

King Yu was really not very confident, so after he understood Wei Guangde's words, he began to reflect on himself, whether it was because he knew that his brother was going to be a vassal during this period, so he was a little flustered.

I don’t know if I don’t mention it, but when I think about it, it seems that it really is
