Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 243 Hu Yu's Purpose

In the public room of the Ministry of Rites.

Shu Liang and Hu Wei sat as host and guest, each with a cup of fragrant tea in front of them.

Amidst the fragrance of tea, neither of them spoke.

Shu Liang was invited by Hu Min.

Shu Liang has always maintained great respect for this great uncle, not only because of his seniority, but also because of his means of standing in the court.

To this day, people of the same generation as Hu Wei are dying and retreating.

Only this minister of the Ministry of Rites, who does not show off his mountains and dews, is firmly in the position of Qiqing, and even got a Shaofu.

However, although it was said that Hu Min invited Shu Liang to come, but at this moment, he was enjoying his tea in leisure time, and he was not in a hurry to speak at all.

After a while, finally Shu Liang couldn't hold back and spoke.

"Thank you, Uncle Da Zong, for today's matter."

With his eyesight, he can naturally see that the actions in the restaurant were deliberately done by Hu Yan.

The reason, I'm afraid, is to rescue him...

After thinking about it, Shu Liang spoke sideways, and said.

"Uncle Da Zong, what do you think of Yang Shan?"

Regarding the conspiracy of Yang Shan and others, Shu Liang has been investigating for a long time, but the other party is very cautious, and Shu Liang is afraid of being discovered by the other party, so he has not made much progress until now.

But in the previous episode, the appointment of the heavenly official gave him some inspiration.

No matter what Yang Shan and others are plotting, it is nothing more than surrounding the Supreme Emperor.

In the final analysis, this matter is a state matter. With the help of a few officials at the level of the Temple Minister and Supervisory Academy, even if there are honorable relatives behind the scenes to help the flames, they will not be able to bypass the court meeting after all.

The context among the civil servants is complicated, but in the final analysis, it is nothing more than a transfer from the top gang of elders.

The elders of Qiqing have extraordinary control over the court council, and if they want to accomplish this matter, they must obtain their consent.

In other words, if they want to succeed, they must infiltrate to the upper level, and the upper and lower levels are linked to make a sound, so that they can be more confident.

For example, the last time the court promoted cabinet ministers, they wanted to select Xu Bin into the cabinet, it was just an attempt.

That being the case, then whether it is overtly or secretly, they will definitely try to get in touch with these bosses.

The old Tianguan probably just didn't want to take this muddy water, so he couldn't wait to retreat bravely.

In this way, it is unreasonable for Hu Wei, who has been in power for the longest time and has the deepest foundation, to be unaware of this matter.

Especially today, Hu Wei's performance in the restaurant confirmed Shu Liang's guess.

Master Hu put down the teacup in his hand, with a slightly complicated expression on his face, he pondered for a moment and said.

"This person is thoughtful, sociable, resourceful, adventurous, and has a sense of merit. Based on the old man's experience over the years, a person like him will either be an excellent minister, or... die without a place to die. "

Sighing, Hu Ming said.

"This old man has never liked taking risks all his life. I have not had much contact with him, and I don't want to be with this generation of risk taking people."

Contrary to Shu Liang's expectation, Hu Wei didn't make any detours, and gave his conclusion directly.

Hearing the vague meaning of clearing away in Hu Wei's words, Shu Liang knew that this great uncle would not give any more information.

Hu Yi has been in office for four dynasties and holds a high position. Shu Liang can't get out of the things he doesn't want to say.

Therefore, Shu Liang didn't bother anymore, said.

"Da Zongbert intends to stop our house on the road, what's the matter?"

An old fox like Hu Wei will definitely go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing.

For no reason, he rescued Shu Liang and stopped him from the road. There must be something looking for him.

Hu Wei smiled wryly and sighed.

"There is no one here, and the old man does not lie to his father-in-law. They all say that children and grandchildren have their own blessings, but after all, children are the heart and soul of parents. At this old man's age, achievements and wealth are just passing by. The only thing to worry about is your own children. "

"My father-in-law also knows that before, Empress Dowager Zhang made the decision and betrothed the old man's youngest daughter to Zhu Yi of Cheng Guogong's mansion. Unfortunately, there were unexpected events, and Cheng Guogong died in a civil engineering battle, and my son-in-law was also affected. If you get involved, the door will be left in the cold."

"Looking at this, the old man has always felt uncomfortable. The father-in-law has always been favored in front of the emperor. The old man just gave up his face today and wants to ask the father-in-law for help."

It turned out to be this matter...

A flash of understanding flashed in Shu Liang's heart, everyone said that this big uncle is old and beautiful, and the baby is tight, and she looks really good.

Otherwise, how could he be willing to take this muddy water with his old man's temperament of being wise and protecting himself.

Thinking so in his heart, Shu Liang showed a trace of surprise on his face, said.

"What's the meaning of Uncle Dazong? If our family remembers correctly, the young master of Duke Cheng's mansion just joined forces with Duke Feng and his elders to donate silver to the imperial court, which won praise from the court, and the emperor also kissed him." The young grandpa was given the post of escort general, how could he be left in the cold?"

Hearing Shu Liang's address to Zhu Yi, a gleam flashed in Hu Wei's eyes, and said.

"Eunuch Shu, why bother to ask?"

"How beautiful Cheng Guogong's mansion was before. Although my son-in-law has the job of escorting the general now, he has no title after all. In front of the family of the former relatives, he will inevitably be unable to hold his head up."

"My son-in-law is okay. After all, he is in the yamen every day, but he suffers from my daughter. As a big woman, she will inevitably be looked at by others. With the support of the title, you have the confidence!"

The meaning of this is obvious, if Shu Liang pretends to be confused, it will be unreasonable.

With a look of embarrassment on his face, Shu Liang said.

"Uncle Dazong, it's not because our family is unwilling to help, but this matter is no small matter. Why has the title of Duke Cheng's mansion not been judged for so long? I think Uncle Dazong should know more about the situation than our family."

"Although our family is in charge of Dongchang now, this matter must be discussed in the court. It is really difficult for our family to intervene."

Since Hu Wei came to find Shu Liang, he naturally had plans in advance, so he said as soon as he saw the situation.

"My father-in-law misunderstood, the old man didn't want my father-in-law to speak out for Cheng Guogong's mansion."

"For the matter of the court meeting, the old man has been in the court for so many years, and he still has some connections. It's just that this matter, apart from going through the court meeting, the emperor's side is the most important thing."

Having said all this, Mr. Hu simply made it clear, said.

"To tell you the truth, the former Duke Fanfeng came to look for my son-in-law and said that he wanted to turn things around in front of His Majesty. The old man thought that there was a glimmer of hope after all, so he let them toss about it. There was never any text."

"Eunuch is deeply trusted by His Majesty. I wonder if Eunuch has ever heard His Majesty talk about the disposal of Duke Cheng's mansion?"

Shu Liang understood that Mr. Hu was not pointing at what he could do to help, but wanted to see the emperor's true attitude on this matter through him.

In fact, in Hu Wei's original plan, he did not intend to let Cheng Guogong's mansion take the lead at this time.

But helplessly, Li Xian, Duke of Feng State, inserted a stick in the middle.

From the day when they broke up in Duke Cheng's mansion, Hu Wei knew that it was inevitable that Duke Cheng's mansion would be targeted by the emperor.

Hu Wei didn't know what kind of situation the emperor would use to push Chengguo's mansion to the front, but it was predictable that, just like Fengguo's mansion, it would definitely not be a pleasant way.

Moreover, the longer it is delayed, the more difficult it may be to control the consequences.

In the situation where it is no longer possible to protect one's life wisely, waiting for the opportunity is likely to turn into waiting for death.

Therefore, instead of waiting so anxiously, Hu Wei finally decided to take the initiative to inquire about the emperor's plan.

Obviously, as the eunuch of the emperor's confidant, Shu Liang is an excellent candidate.

Even if no substantive news could be obtained from him, he could still express Cheng Guogong's position to the emperor again.

Since it is inevitable to pay a price, the sooner the matter is resolved, the less the price will be paid. This is what the elders have said for decades of experience.

After hearing Hu Mei's question, Shu Liang didn't speak for a long time, but just when he thought today's inquiry was too reckless, Shu Liang spoke.

"Our family has indeed heard His Majesty mention this matter."
