Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 287 Necessary Skills for You

It should be said that this is a rare time when civil servants and military officials have the same attitude.

On the surface, it was because King Min had a tough attitude and reprimanded Guo Sheng, which caused dissatisfaction among the courtiers.

But in fact, only Zhu Qiyu knew that the courtiers under him were also having their own little calculations.

On Wu Chen's side, Cheng'an Hou Guo Sheng and Ning Yang Hou Chen Mao are both from the British government. King Guangtong made troubles and got through with them in advance.

Therefore, it is impossible for them to watch this matter be put to rest.

On the civil servant's side, Chen Yi was dissatisfied with the strength of the clan, and as a Qingliu Fengxian, he had to stand up to protect the dignity of the courtiers.

As for Hu Wei, an old fellow, he was purely trying to gain favor with the wind.

Don't look at his angry, righteous and firm attitude, in fact, it can be seen from his words.

He was expressing his attitude of standing with the emperor, otherwise, there was no need for him to mention Zongxue.

In any case, the courtiers were rarely united on the same matter.

If it had changed from the past, and the civil and military officials had such a consistent attitude, no matter how important the state affairs were, they would not have any obstacles to pass.

But today is different. This matter is a matter of the clan. To put it bluntly, it is the family affairs of the old Zhu family.

Therefore, all of a sudden, whether it was the civil and military ministers or the clan princes, they all focused their eyes on the emperor above him.

Faced with such a situation, the emperor obviously hesitated, and after a while, he saw the emperor talking to the old Min king.

"Uncle Min Wang, all the ministers said they wanted to bring King Zhennan and others to the palace. Now that the incident has happened, let them go to the palace to tell themselves. If it's just a quarrel, the uncle will take it back to the mansion to reprimand you. How about next?"

The old King Min frowned and remained silent.

Over the past few days, Zhu Yinyuan has been by his side all the time, and he also vaguely revealed something, saying that the two brothers, King Guangtong, planned to make a fuss about Su Shi's death.

He didn't pay much attention to it at the time.

One reason is because Su's status is low, she is just a concubine, even if there is a disturbance, there will be no trouble.

Secondly, Su's suicide at that time was indeed a bit suspicious, but after all, it has been so many years.

What's more, Su Shi repeatedly stole property from the treasury of Prince Min's Mansion to supplement her two bastard sons, there is also conclusive evidence to check.

Even if she didn't commit suicide, according to family law, there would be no good fruit to eat.

So the old King Min only felt that the two sons were messing around again, and didn't take it too seriously.

Until just now Shu Liang came to report that they had fought outside.

Only then did the old Min King realize that the two sons wanted to sue the emperor in front of the emperor.

In front of so many clan princes, and these people are all his juniors, if such a family scandal is revealed, he, the Min King, will lose all face.

He didn't know what the Guangtong Wang brothers were planning.

Therefore, subconsciously, the two of King Guangtong felt that it was hopeless to bring down King Zhennan, so they simply made a fuss about the matter and made it difficult for everyone.

So he resolutely opposed and brought these people to the hall in public.

But what he didn't expect was that the courtiers would intervene horizontally, and there were so many important ministers coming out one after another, all of them clearly wanted to ask things clearly.

Looking at the expression on the emperor's face, King Min was also a little uncertain whether the emperor was sincerely asking about his attitude, or whether he wanted to ask him to pass a step.

After pondering for a while, King Min made a decision and spoke.

"Your Majesty, whether it's a quarrel or other reasons, it's a family matter after all. From my point of view, there's no need to make a fuss in the palace! If your Majesty wants to know the details, you can hand them over to Zong after the banquet." The people's government will interrogate carefully."

So many ministers have opened their mouths, King Min also knows that this matter cannot be covered up, so he does not intend to completely calm down the matter, but only hopes to stop making trouble under the watchful eyes of everyone.

After the big banquet, even if the clan mansion came to ask, it would not be so embarrassing anyway.

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was still hesitating, Prince Min's heart froze, with a trace of sadness on his face, he said.

"Your Majesty, I have no way to teach my sons. I am ashamed to let them act so boldly in the palace. I really don't want to see these unworthy sons at this moment. Please forgive me."

With the character of the old King Min, being able to say these words can be regarded as a great determination, and this attitude is already almost praying.

Zhu Qiyu was also a little hesitant, he really did not expect that the old King Min could be so willing to face himself.

After all, his seniority is placed there, and his attitude is so low that it would not be appropriate for Zhu Qiyu to persist.

However, if he let it go, his previous plans would inevitably be affected.

Just as Hu Laohu guessed, Zhu Qiyu had expected that a self-disciplined prince like King Zhou would come out to oppose Zongxue.

The farce of Guangtong Wang and others is the most effective way to slap them in the face.

The revelation of this matter in court has the greatest impact.

Unlike King Min, with Dongchang in hand, Zhu Qiyu knew long ago that the real purpose of King Guangtong and others was to use the death of the former Prince Min to make a fuss.

If this matter is true, then Zhennan Wang framed his eldest brother, and the brothers fought against the wall, which is naturally a big treason.

If it is false, then King Guangtong and others accuse his elder brother, which is also a big scandal.

In short, regardless of whether the matter is true or not, the previous rhetoric of Zhou Wang and others will be self-defeating.

Now the old King Min took a step back, just asking not to reveal the matter in full view, and the words were basically spread out. In all fairness, this request is not too much.

But if it is really solved after the banquet, then it will not be completely useless, but the effect will be much worse.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhu Qiyu made a decision, raised his empty hand, and helped King Min up from a distance, said.

"Uncle Min Wang invited me, it's because I haven't considered my uncle's mood at the moment, there is indeed something wrong, if that's the case, it's not too late to deal with this matter after the banquet is over."

The old King Min immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and thanked him: "Old minister, thank you for your sympathy."

With that said, Zhu Qiyu turned around and said.

"Shu Liang, you go outside and imprison King Guangtong and others in the side hall for the time being, and deal with them after the banquet is over. Remember, don't cause any more trouble."

In today's hall, all the officials and clans are in the hall, facing the emperor and sitting at the bottom.

As an eunuch, Shu Liang naturally came to the corners on both sides of the imperial steps, just beside the emperor, after the performance was over.

Therefore, from the angle where he was standing, when he looked up, he saw the emperor's hand under the imperial case.

I saw the emperor secretly gesturing to him while talking.

Shu Liang was originally a man with a quick mind, and he knew the emperor's plans, so he immediately understood, bowed his hands and led away.

Therefore, all the kings were relieved and returned to their seats. At the same time, the courtiers sat down again with a bit of unwillingness.

Especially Cheng'anhou Guosheng and Ningyanghou Chenmao couldn't hide the disappointment on their faces.

However, after a while, several servants rushed in from outside, and the leader was still Shu Liang.

But this time, his hair was disheveled, his figure was in a mess, his face was a little bruised, as if he had been punched hard, and he knelt on the ground as soon as he entered the hall, crying.

"Your Majesty, it's not good. The ministers were ordered by the emperor to escort King Guangtong and others to the side hall. As a result, King Guangtong and King Yangzong insisted that the ministers obstructed them and prevented them from meeting. Not only did the ministers beat up, but I broke free from the servant who was looking at them, and now I have rushed into the palace..."
