Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 230 People Have Two Sides
"It should be all right!"

Facing Gao Gu's worries, a hoarse voice sounded in the public room.

This sentence was not said by Wang Ao, but by Chen Xun.

Obviously, what Wang Ao said just now hit him hard.

As a result, his voice at the moment was a little hoarse, full of stagnation.

However, compared to the high-spirited before, although the current Chen Xun looks a little depressed, he is also a little more calm.

Looking up at Gao Gu, Chen Xun said.

"Since His Majesty has agreed to push the cabinet ministers, at least, the trust in the cabinet will remain the same, so you don't have to worry about Shiyong."

After finishing speaking, Chen Xun got up, walked in front of Wang Ao, cupped his hands, and said sincerely.

"What the first assistant said is correct. This is the old man's recklessness. This time, the old man is in harmony with the world and owes the first assistant a favor. From now on, in the cabinet, the first assistant should be the head, and the old man will do his best to cooperate."

After all, without waiting for Wang Ao to speak, Chen Xun turned around and left the public house.

Gao Gu smiled wryly for a while, and could only say.

"Brother Jiugao, don't be angry. This time, I really want to thank Brother Jiugao for turning around in front of the emperor. Brother De Zun just couldn't save face for a while, and I also thank Brother Jiugao for his help in my heart."

Wang Ao was very calm, as if the tense atmosphere just now did not exist, and said with a smile as always.

"Shi Yong is joking, we are the same age, brother De Zun's temper, don't I know?"

"Don't worry, as you said just now, the cabinet is both prosperous and all are harmed. We are all working for the imperial court. We have conflicts and have our own opinions. It is impossible to talk about being angry or not."

"In the future, the government affairs of the cabinet will need Shiyong you and Brother De Zun to work together with the old man. It will be a serious matter."

Gao Gu lowered his head and arched his hands.

"Shoufu said so."

However, having said that, he still couldn't help but secretly sighed.

After this incident, they are afraid that they will be constrained by Wang Ao everywhere in the cabinet.

People under the eaves have to bow their heads...

Night, Chen Mansion.

In the study, Chen Xun and Gao Gu sat opposite each other.

At this moment, Chen Xun no longer had the impatience and anger he had during the daytime. He was fiddling with the tea set in his hand, looking smooth and smooth, which was very pleasing to the eye.

The small red clay cup was handed to Gao Gu, and the aroma of tea filled his nose.

At the same time, Chen Xun also picked up the cup, took a sip, and said with a hint of intoxication on his face.

"Let's try it for the world. This tea is the Wuyi tribute tea given by the palace before. The water is also freshly delivered sweet spring water. It is clear and tangy. It is especially suitable for making tea."

Gao Gu couldn't laugh or cry, picked up the teacup, and drank it down in one gulp, making Chen Xun unhappy, and said.

"Drinking tea like this, how can you taste it? It's a waste of the old man's skills."

Putting down the cup, Gao Gu couldn't bear it anymore, and said.

"Brother De Zun, you can hold your breath. You didn't see Wang Jiugao's proud look after you left today."

"What is said is for the good of the cabinet, but it's just to suppress you and me. If you swallow this tone like this, won't you and I let him handle it in the future?"

In contrast, Chen Xun still looked calm, and asked while washing the tea set in his hand again.

"Why not?"

Gao Gu's expression froze, but he said nothing.

To tell the truth, the power of the Hanlin Academy was seized, and the biggest loss was not Chen Xun, but Gao Gu.

You must know that Chen Xun entered the Hanlin Academy directly with the number one scholar at the beginning, step by step, and achieved the position of the head of the Imperial Academy.

Therefore, his influence in the Hanlin Academy comes more from his years of management, not just the title of Bachelor of the Academy.

At least, it is impossible for those students who have studied under him to deny him as a teacher just because he was dismissed as a bachelor.

But high valley is different.

He was a member of the cabinet first, and then he was transferred to the Imperial Academy. In the Imperial Academy, which values ​​imperial examination results, he is not outstanding.

It was only because of his strong ability and sufficient opportunities that he achieved the official position of serving as a lecturer and became Chen Xun's deputy.

His bachelor in charge was specially promoted in order to transfer him into the cabinet because the cabinet was empty after San Yang left.

Therefore, his influence on the Hanlin Academy is completely incomparable with that of Chen Xun.

Losing the title of the head of the academy is a real loss of strength, how can he swallow this breath.

Chen Xun glanced at Gao Gu, did not speak, but continued to wash the tea, preparing to make another pot.

While fiddling with the tea set, Chen Xun sighed.

"Don't worry about the world, what Wang Jiugao said today is biased, but it is indeed true."

"These days, you and I are indeed too impatient and lose our normal mind, which arouses the emperor's fear, which is also reasonable."

"Speaking of which, it was Wang Jiugao who reminded the old man that you and I were indeed too reckless about today's Jingyan."

"At this time, it's better to be still than to move."

Gao Gu was surprised and dissatisfied that "you still speak for him".

After thinking about it, he picked up the purple sand pot that Chen Xun had just brewed, poured a cup of tea into his own cup, and drank it down in one gulp.

Chen Xun shook his head helplessly, put the purple clay pot back to his hand, and said.

"You and I have indeed violated a taboo today. It will be seen at the court meeting that His Majesty is very disgusted with the private use of public equipment and the manipulation of public opinion."

"It's nothing to offend a Wang Jiugao. After all, he has no foundation in the capital. Even if you and I lose the position of the head of the academy, it's not easy to bully based on the accumulation of these years."

"Today's two incidents seem to be Wang Jiugao's revenge on you and me, but the old man has thought about it carefully. The key to this matter is that he has figured out the emperor's mind."

Gao Gu frowned, looking a little uncomfortable, and asked.

"Brother De Zun, what does the emperor mean by cooperating with Wang Jiugao and suppressing us?"

Chen Xun shook his head, as if he was considering what to say.

After a while, he spoke.

"You can't say that. Although Wang Jiugao entered the cabinet as the emperor Jianba, in terms of trustworthiness, he may not be stronger than you and me."

"In the final analysis, he was only promoted to the cabinet because of his achievements in Liaodong."

"The old man has read the military report of the Ministry of War afterwards. His Majesty awarded Wang Jianzhai the king's command flag and ordered him to negotiate with Tuotuobuhua on behalf of Daming. Wang Jiugao was not mentioned."

"It's just that at that time, Wang Jiugao was overseeing the army in Liaodong, and he was worried that Wang Jianzhai would go on an envoy alone, so he followed him just now, and got credit for it."

After taking a sip of the fragrant tea, Chen Xun came to a conclusion.

"In other words, he is not the same as Wang Jianzhai, he is the generation of Jane in the Sacred Heart."

Gao Gu sighed, a hint of envy appeared on his face, and said.

"That's right, if today's matter is changed to Wang Jianzhai, I'm afraid that the emperor will be in trouble after the sutra feast."

Chen Xun's hand holding the cup also froze.

After a while, Elder Chen chose to skip this unpleasant topic.

Chen Xundao: "In other words, regarding the conflict between us and Wang Jiugao, the Son of Heaven has no intention of taking sides. The reason why he was able to win this round is that what he did happened to be what the Son of Heaven would do. .”

"The matter of the banquet, no matter whether it is aimed at Wang Jiugao or not, as long as the emperor decides that you and I use public weapons for private use, then the position of Hanlin bachelor will not be guaranteed, and no one can do anything about it."

"As for the court's selection of cabinet ministers, I'm afraid the emperor has already planned it out."

Gao Gu frowned and thought about it for a while, but felt that he couldn't figure it out, so he asked directly.

"Why is that?"

Chen Xun drank the cold tea and said quietly.

"Shi Yong thinks, why did the heavenly official not submit the last memorial to his official appointment until now?"
