Chapter 343 As expected of the eldest princess

There was another quarrel in the court.

"Don't push yourself too hard. It is absolutely impossible for the eldest princess to enter the East Palace."

"What do you mean by pushing an inch? The eldest princess temporarily entered the East Palace because she was in a hurry to follow the power. What's the matter with etiquette? After establishing a reserve in the future, it's just a matter of moving out. Why are you so angry?"

"The eldest princess is a girl..."

"Don't talk about the girl, you are not born and raised by your mother? Dare I ask the whole court, which man has the eldest princess's heart to help the world? Has the eldest princess's virtuous reputation? Why don't you say that the eldest princess is famous outside and her virtue spreads all over the world? ? The eldest princess has a reputation of being virtuous and virtuous, so why can’t she temporarily enter the East Palace as the regent and supervisor of the country?”

"The Eastern Palace is to presuppose the crown prince and train the crown prince. The servants of the East Palace are also assisted by the crown prince. It is not suitable for the eldest princess to enter the middle palace."

"..."

The father said that the father was right, and the mother-in-law said that the mother-in-law was right. Emperor Nanxing turned his head and looked at the eldest princess in the hall: "What do you think, the eldest princess?"

The courtiers were shocked that His Majesty really had such a heart.

Jiang Fuguang walked down the hall: "I think this is inappropriate. The East Palace was established for the prince, and I dare not go beyond the etiquette and even the ancestral system."

Dr. Liu and his party suddenly felt that the eldest princess was quite sensible, so they swallowed the words that were about to be insulted.

It's just that they were relieved too early, and then they heard the eldest princess change the subject: "But what Mr. Wen said just now is not unreasonable. At the beginning of the establishment of the East Palace, in addition to presupposing the crown prince, at some special times, Taking on the important task of supervising the country, at a time when the court is in turmoil, everything is complicated, and the power of one minister is really insufficient, so I ask His Majesty to allow you to reopen the East Palace, and allow the officials of the East Palace to assist in government affairs."

Dr. Liu opened his mouth to refute it, but when the words came to his lips, he felt that what the eldest princess said seemed quite reasonable.

The responsibility of the East Palace, in addition to cultivating the prince, is also responsible for the operation of the court when the emperor is on tour, sick, or a coup.

The Eldest Princess supervises the country this time, and is assisted by the servants of the Eastern Palace. There is nothing wrong with that!
The servants of the Eastern Palace, including the three princes and the three young masters, although they all hold vain positions and have no real power in the court, they are all veterans of the court, former students and old officials, all over the court, with a very high reputation, and they still play an important role in the court. Influence.

The problem is, after all, the eldest princess is a girl, and she stretched her hand into the East Palace without entering the East Palace. It seems reasonable, but isn't she trying to seize power?
Dr. Liu's eyelids twitched, thinking about how to refute, Huang Jingzhou who was on the side couldn't wait to jump out: "The minister seconded the proposal."

Dr. Liu squinted at him, unable to say anything.

The ministers who supported the eldest princess stood up and seconded the proposal one after another.

Gu Ping and the others remained neutral, and the ministers who opposed him couldn't tell the reason for the inadequacy except that they were full of one injustice.

Right now, the case of Marquis Cheng'an is still in the stage of joint trial by the three divisions. The Empress Dowager also went to Shuiyue Nunnery. His Royal Highness Prince An closed his residence.

This is the result of the battle between the Lidi faction and the eldest princess faction, and the neutral faction cannot be mixed in.

And so it was settled.

After the court was over, Wen Yiqian came over and asked: "Why doesn't the eldest princess enter the East Palace? Your Majesty orders you to supervise the country. When you enter the East Palace, the subordinates of the East Palace should assist the state affairs first."

"Headed by the king of Changjun, the ministers who support the establishment of the throne will not agree." Jiang Fuguang himself did not want to enter the East Palace. Advance aggressively, otherwise it will backfire, and you should act cautiously during this time."

If she enters the East Palace, the ministers of the Legislative Faction will definitely not let it go. They will jump up and down in the court all day long, not thinking about assisting the government. If there is a problem with the government, it will still be her fault for not being effective in supervising the country.

Further, cocoon itself.

Take a step back and the pattern is wide open.

Wen Yiqian and the others were still unwilling, so they had no choice but to nod.

Jiang Fuguang said: "From now on, on the day of the court meeting, I will deal with government affairs alone in the side hall of the Taiji Hall, discuss court affairs with the ministers, and spend the rest of the time in the Princess's mansion, everything will continue as usual."

Afterwards, Jiang Fuguang summoned some serving officials of the Eastern Palace in the side hall of the Taiji Hall and assigned them assistant tasks, and he was very busy.

……

The news of the Eldest Princess being regent and supervising the country caused a great shock inside and outside the court, and the turbulent undercurrent under the imperial power swept across.

The sound of hurried footsteps sounded in the claustrophobic tea room.

The woman in plain clothes knelt in front of the chessboard. On the torreya chessboard, black and white pieces criss-crossed, and the stars were scattered: "I already know it."

The maid's complexion was not very good, she lowered her head and said: "After the court was over, Your Majesty left Fan Siqing to talk alone. Not long after Fan Siqing left the palace, he brought Shangfang Zhanma Sword with him. With the cooperation of the Imperial City Secretary, he brought a few A little clan member went back to the yamen for interrogation. He thought he had clues earlier. He was concerned that the other party was a clan member, so he didn’t dare to act rashly without convincing evidence. I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it."

The voice of the woman in plain clothes was bleak and cold: "Private salt is the main source of our wealth. Over the years, it has been relying on the circulation of illicit salt and secretly pulling many ministers into the water, so that the power of the old party will gradually grow. With the wealth of private salt, you can recruit soldiers and bury horses in secret."

"The private salt case has become a big deal, and it is even more impossible to get out of it unscathed. If this continues, His Majesty will follow the clues to find us sooner or later."

The tea room fell silent, and in the claustrophobic room, there was a darkness that could not see the sun.

Half an hour!

"As expected of the Eldest Princess," the plain-clothed woman sighed, her tone filled with cold murderous intent, "The old party forces have been dormant in the court for many years, but the Eldest Princess was beaten seven inches by a snake."

As soon as he made a move, he hit the vital point directly.

The maid didn't know what to say.

The plain-clothed woman's tone suddenly became ruthless: "I can't sit still and wait for death."

The maid hesitated: "Now is not the right time. The Eldest Princess is the regent and supervises the country. General Xiaoqi leads an army of [-] guards and is on standby outside the city at any time. The Secretary of the Imperial City also has Lieutenant Wu to support him, and General Qi can command the soldiers from all over the world." horse……"

"Can't wait," the plain-clothed woman's face was ugly, and even her voice was a little bit awkward, "Your Majesty attaches so much importance to the case of private salt, perhaps it's the case of Marquis Cheng'an that made His Majesty suspicious of the clan. Fan Siqing is Meng Taifu His Majesty's disciples are called by His Majesty, we can't do anything in Dali Temple. The assassination of Jia Zheng before has already made Fan Siqing extremely vigilant, and we must not act rashly again. Hide away."

When the maid heard this, she knew that the old party was already a lonely cliff, and she was crawling over it, and if she was not careful, she would fall into the abyss.

There was a moment of silence in the hall.

The plain-clothed woman clenched her fingers, calmed down for a moment, and asked, "Have you found out clearly whether it's true or not that His Majesty's dragon body is in trouble?"
