Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 1474 The Secret of the Chamber of Secrets 40.0
"Yu Xiandian?" Xue Ruitian frowned when Shen Haolin nodded slightly, "Isn't this the place where the former emperor called important ministers to discuss matters or hold small meetings, and occasionally gave banquets?"

"Yes." Shen Haolin nodded, "That's the place."

"The grand master celebrates his victory in forming a party for personal gain and eliminating dissidents in such a place? The former emperor and the prince of the prison country don't care? Live as if he didn't see it? Are you sure? This is not in line with common sense!"

"That's what my father said. I'm not sure. I don't know if it's common sense."

"My lord, this is too unimaginable. Isn't this challenging the majesty of the imperial power?" Jin Miaomiao also couldn't understand this enigmatic approach, "No matter how powerful this grand master is and how powerful he is, how can he be alone? He is also a courtier with more than [-] people. If he does this, there will be no objection in the entire court? Not a single bone? What about those censors who usually have nothing to do? Just watch him do this?"

"This Grand Master has long been an extremely talented minister, with many disciples, so he must serve in an important government office. A place like Yushitai, which can manipulate public opinion, is naturally under his control." Shen Chalian There was a hint of sneer on the face, "Since Yushitai is all his people, they must all attend the banquet in Yuxian Palace, so how can they object?"

"Xiaocha is right." His Royal Highness Ning nodded slightly, "The situation at that time was so bad that we can't imagine, that is, you would think that people are so inhuman, so unscrupulous, and how can they be morally corrupt. To that extent." He drank two sips of soup, and continued, "The general environment at that time was like this, the former emperor was bedridden for many years, and handed over the state affairs to the crown prince with full power, that is, the crown prince supervised the country, and the crown prince supervised the country. It was this Grand Master who came to assist the government."

"Nepotism, relatives in power." Jin Miaomiao sighed, "This is the key to the troubled times!"

"That's right." His Highness King Ning nodded, "You might as well guess, how old was the prince of Jian Guo at that time?"

"Since the prince can supervise the country, he has to be an adult, at least fourteen or 15 years old." Jin Miaomiao glanced at His Royal Highness King Ning who was shaking his head, then at Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian, "Why are you doing this? Reaction? Isn't it?"

"You talk too much." Shen Cha extended a slap, "The prince was only five years old at that time."

"Five years old?" It wasn't Jin Miaomiao who was surprised. Jin Jing and Hong Ye, who had been sitting beside listening fascinatedly, also widened their eyes. The two walked towards each other and saw the same shock in each other's eyes. "Five-year-old children, even in the royal family, are just enlightened?" They looked at His Highness King Ning, "That's right, Your Highness?"

"It's about the same. The king's health is not very good, so the time of enlightenment is a little later than other brothers and sisters. When he was about four years old, he invited the master to teach. Brother Huang and the others started studying at the age of three, but In contact with the government..." His Royal Highness Ning thought for a while, "It should be when he was seven or eight years old, five years old..." He shook his head lightly, "I haven't read all the words, and I haven't spoken very neatly yet, and I still have contact with the government. , it’s already pretty good if you can manage your own palace well.”

"So, a five-year-old prince supervising the country is a big joke!" Jin Jing touched her chin, "I'm afraid it's not the prince who supervises the country, but the grand master?" Seeing His Royal Highness King Ning and Shen Haolin nodding slightly , he sighed softly, "Understood."

"What do you understand?" Jin Miaomiao tilted her head and looked at her brother, "Why did you suddenly understand?"

"Isn't this obvious? The old emperor is old and weak, and the young master is still in his infancy. He has no ability to restrain and control the grand master. Naturally, everything is up to the grand master. However, the grand master did not act because of the power in his hands. Instead, they are infinitely developing the power of their own factions, taking the court hall of the former dynasty as their own hall, and the imperial palace as their grand master's mansion." Seeing Jin Miaomiao's still puzzled face, Jin Jing sighed softly, "If you were the prince, at a young age, with an elder who feels oppressive like the grand master, what would you do?"

"Resist?" Jin Miaomiao thought for a while, "At least I would definitely not agree to entertain my party members in the Yuxian Palace."

"So what if you don't agree?" Jin Jing spread her hands, "The grand master is the grandfather of the prince, whether it's the grand master's disciples, minions, or trusted officials, in terms of seniority, they are all the prince's uncles and uncles. There are cousins, cousins, etc., who are closely related, what do you think the prince can say against him at such a young age? Besides, I don’t think the grand master dares to hold a banquet in his own name, probably to pretend to be the prince to do these things.”

"Hmm!" His Royal Highness Ning tapped the table lightly, "It is indeed in the name of the prince, and it is also the invitations sent by the prince to send his own servants to the mansions in person." He sneered, "So, this banquet is in name It was organized by the prince, but the prince and the previous emperor did not participate, and from the beginning to the end, there were only the grand master and his disciples."

"No wonder the previous dynasty was so unbearable. With such a cowardly supervisor and emperor, it's no wonder there is a good one!"

"Sister, what you said is wrong. You have to bow your head under the eaves."

"What do you mean?" Jin Miaomiao frowned slightly, "Do you mean that the emperor and the crown prince of the previous dynasty were dependent on others? But isn't that the imperial palace? Why do they have to rely on others to live?"

"Because the lifeblood is in other people's hands, my silly sister." Jin Jing shook her head helplessly, "Pharmaceuticals, medical diagnosis, and war are all good at it. How come you don't know anything when it comes to exploring people's hearts? In the name of the grand master It is the auxiliary government, but in fact, he has already controlled the court in his own hands. Rather than saying that the emperor and prince of the previous dynasty relied on him, it is better to say that they were imprisoned in the palace by the grand master, and became the grand master who could handle it at will hostage."

"This is a typical example of coercing the emperor to order the princes." Shen Cha sighed softly, "I thought the grand master was a vegetarian in the corpse before, but looking at it now, he is very ambitious, he is the one who really wants to change the dynasty. If it weren't for the raging wars everywhere, I'm afraid he will succeed. At that time, the emperor and the young prince of the previous dynasty will all die in his hands."

"Sure enough, in the eyes of this kind of person, the charm of that chair is above everything else." Jin Miaomiao looked disgusted, "It's his grandfather, so inhumane!" She looked at His Highness King Ning, and then at Shen Haolin , "What happened later? What happened to this guy who was enough to cut him into pieces?"

"The ancestors of the Shen family brought Daxia's army back to Xijing City. After entering the palace, they began to arrest the master and his henchmen all over the city. The henchmen couldn't bear it, but the grand master himself didn't see it. Later, after being interrogated, I found out that as early as three nights before Daxia's army marched, the Grand Master ran away with his cronies and his favorite concubine."

"Run away?" Jin Miaomiao pouted, "What about his family?"

"Throw it in Xijing City, and let it fend for itself." His Royal Highness Ning sighed, "However, this old guy didn't end up well. I heard that he ran into a bandit not far away. , not only robbing property, but also being hacked into pieces." He looked at Shen Haolin, "Isn't it?"

Shen Haolin nodded, and said, "Father said that the greatest regret of our ancestors is that we were not able to kill our enemies."

"Isn't this good now?" His Royal Highness Ning smiled, "It's not worth getting my hands dirty for this kind of scum."
