Princess of the auxiliary country

Chapter 357; Revealed
"The emperor just doesn't care about you?"

Fang Zhilan was still shocked. It was not a secret in the capital that the prince and the king of Qi and the king of Chu had been fighting openly and secretly.

Moreover, they have been fighting for several years. She originally thought that the emperor is still in his prime now. Even if these three fights, she does not dare to make too much noise. After all, what will the emperor think if it makes too much noise?
Therefore, she always felt that even if these three wanted to go to war, it would have to wait until the emperor was in his old age.

But they never expected that the three of them would start now, without any warning, and even have such exciting fun right from the start.

Are they really not afraid of the emperor at all?

In fact, she knew that there was a crucial pusher behind this, and this pusher was right in front of her at this moment.

It stands to reason that Fang Zhilan's idea is not wrong. Emperor Zhaowu is still in his prime, and he has been holding back his energy to make some big moves. However, the country is still very weak in front of the situation, and there are aristocratic families and other powerful people inside who are eyeing him. .

Therefore, he must first make arrangements domestically before dealing with foreign countries.

If the Crown Prince and King Qi dare to make trouble at this time, they are definitely doing something wrong.

Thinking that their father is still very energetic, these little boys started to worry about his position. Isn't this just looking for trouble?

"Tube?"

Huo Junyao laughed inexplicably.

At the same time, I was also thinking about whether I should talk to the second sister-in-law in front of me about something?
She will be the future mistress of Duke Ji's house, and Wen Ruo is still studying with her, so she can talk about it and forge more romantic relationships with Wen Ruo in advance.

In this way, Ji Guogong's mansion will be more stable in the future.

Fang Zhilan opposite was still waiting for the next step, but when she saw that Huo Junyao stopped talking, she was also very confused and looked at her with a puzzled face.

"Second sister-in-law, it's too windy here, let's go sit inside."

With that said, Huo Junyao stood up and walked into the house, leaving Fang Zhilan a little confused, her head turning mechanically, looking at the motionless leaves on the side.

Where is the wind coming from? Too big?
But she was confused for just a moment, and she understood that there must be some secrets here.

He also got up and walked into the room. In the hall, Huo Junyao had already reached the tea table and was making tea leisurely.

Fang Zhilan walked to sit opposite her.

"Second sister-in-law, why do you think the emperor suddenly asked Wen Ruo to study with me?"

As soon as these words came out, Fang Zhilan was a little stunned. She had thought about this problem before, but she didn't think too much about it. She just felt that her sister-in-law was so capable. It was normal for the emperor to know that it was normal for Prince Wen Ruo to come and learn from her.

But according to my sister-in-law, does the emperor have another purpose?

It's not that she didn't expect it, she just couldn't believe it. Who is the prince after all? That was the eldest son of Empress Shen. When Emperor Zhaowu ascended the throne, he immediately conferred the title of Empress and Crown Prince.

It was enough to show that he had high hopes for his eldest son.

Besides, can the position of prince be lost at any time?

Not to mention whether Queen Shen would agree, I am afraid that most of the civil and military officials in the court would not agree, especially Zhao Guogong. This old guy is usually very low-key.

But his energy is not small. When she was still in her parents' home, she often heard from her father Fang Qiao and her mother that there were two people who were hidden the most in the Yu Dynasty court. The first one was Zhao Guogong Shen Huan. This guy looks dull, but in fact he has an extraordinary right to speak in the court.

If it weren't for the fact that he was a relative, he would definitely be the first prime minister of the Yu Dynasty. Even her father Fang Qiao would have to step aside.

As for the second deeply hidden person, it was naturally her father-in-law, Duke Ji Guo, Huo Jingzhi, who was also low-key and easy-going, and looked like a good old man.

That's because he doesn't want to be jealous of the emperor, and he originally chose the position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry. This position basically does not have much interest in other courts. After all, the Ministry of Industry is a Qingshui Yamen.

If there is no benefit, it will not be easy to be remembered. In other words, no one will really make Huo Jingzhi angry. If he really makes Huo Jingzhi angry, the lethality will be no worse than Shen Huan.

Shen Huanqiang was because of Empress Shen, or because of Huo Jingzhi's temperament, it was the Supreme Emperor. Who didn't know that the Supreme Emperor's favorite daughter was Princess Ningyang?
It can be said that as long as the Emperor is here and as long as Huo Jingzhi does not do anything rebellious, even if the Emperor wants to touch him, he will have to think twice.

Not to mention, now there is another fierce person in the Huo family.

As a sister-in-law, the things she has in her hands are not bad at all. If she really makes a fuss, it will definitely shake the foundation of the Yu Dynasty.

As the Hot Spring Villa Company's business continues to cover all parts of the Yu Dynasty, if she really makes a fuss, how many people across the country will lose their jobs?

Although Emperor Zhaowu would have a headache when the courtiers started to make trouble, he could still suppress it by killing a group of people with iron blood. However, if many people across the country started making trouble, Emperor Zhaowu could only stare blankly.

It’s impossible to send people to suppress all these people, right? If he really did this, the people would definitely be at odds with each other, and the Yu Dynasty would be close to chaos.

To go a long way, the main reason is that Fang Zhilan feels that with Queen Shen and Shen Huanzai, the prince is not so easy to replace, even if he wants to replace him with Prince Wenruo, it is not easy.

After all, there are still many old ministers in the court with old ideas.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Huo Junyao knew that she had already thought of the answer in her mind, but she just couldn't believe it.

"Then why do Second Sister-in-law think that as soon as the commotion broke out in the capital, the Emperor hurriedly sent Prince Wenruo to my place and asked him to stay and study here?"

As soon as these words came out, Fang Zhilan stood up.

Although I couldn't believe it, what Huo Junyao said at this time couldn't bear to be considered carefully.

It’s simply terrifying to think about it.

"If the emperor wanted to take care of this matter, he would have taken care of it a long time ago. Why is there no movement at all? Second sister-in-law, doesn't it feel strange?"

"Furthermore, this incident has caused such a big fuss. There are many capable people in the capital. Do you really think that no one can guess the actions of those three guys? Don't you know what kind of virtuous second sister-in-law that old man Meng Xuancheng is?"

"But he didn't impeach, don't you think it's strange?"

Although Meng Xuancheng was the biggest troll in the Yu Dynasty, if he could achieve this position, was he really a brainless fool?
If that were the case, he would have been killed eight hundred years ago, and the Meng family would have been destroyed for many years.

But they are still good, why?
Because people know when they can come out and spray without any scruples, and when they can't.

Let’s talk about this time. It’s impossible that the emperor didn’t know about the mess of those three guys, but the emperor didn’t deal with it. What’s the reason? I have to think deeply. Can an old guy like Meng Xuancheng, who has been in the court for many years, see any clues?
It can be said that if he dares to complain now, it may ruin some of the emperor's plans. The emperor may not care about trivial matters with him. At most, he will get sulky and curse a few old people behind his back. But if it really breaks down. The emperor's important event will definitely not be far away.

This old guy is very smart.
