Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 419 Intimidation

Looking at Zhu Yi who was still calm, Zhang Min couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

This kid is really hard to deal with.

Obviously, he listened to what he said, and he also had a solid understanding of the current situation facing the two dukes.

But he just refused to let go.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Min cast his eyes on Jiao Jing who was at the side.

Seeing this, Jiao Jing was slightly taken aback.

But immediately, he reacted.

Up to now, Zhang Min's purpose has become very clear.

He wants to borrow the power of Cheng Guogong to save Zhang Fu, this is one of them.

Winning Cheng Guogong's mansion to the Supreme Emperor's camp, this is the second.

For the former, Zhu Yi has let go.

After all, Zhang Min had just analyzed the situation very clearly, and there was no basis for further estrangement between the Chengguo government and the British government.

Under the background that Cheng Guogong's mansion is not accepted by the emperor, it is inevitable for the two sides to help each other.

Zhu Yi also made it very clear that he could do his part to help rescue Zhang Fu.

Therefore, the most important purpose of Zhang Min's trip has been achieved.

As for the second purpose, it is not just a matter of his family in the British government.

There is still a difference between watching and helping each other and real cooperation.

The former only help each other when they are in trouble, which is relatively loose help.

But what they really want is to truly take the influence of Cheng Guogong's government among the nobles and the contacts they have established among the civil servants for many years as their own.

This, the British government is not in a hurry.

However, it is very much needed for the Queen Mother Sun who has successively lost troops and generals.

After understanding this section, Jiao Jing suddenly felt that the development of the matter was somewhat unexpected.

Originally, he was just here to watch the excitement, but when it comes to the present, he can only speak up and lobby for the British government. I have to say that although Zhang Fu is in prison, he has indeed made a good plan.

However, Jiao Jing didn't feel disgusted by this, because it was good for the Holy Mother and the Supreme Emperor to win over Cheng Guogong's mansion.

From this point of view, their interests are aligned.

Accepting Zhang Min's wink, Jiao Jing pondered for a moment, then said.

"Little Lord, the old man understands what you are worried about. There are no outsiders here, so the old man opened up and said, I, the second master, the third master, Uncle Ningyang, Marquis Ningyuan and many other nobles have indeed been thinking about something. , welcome back the Supreme Emperor as soon as possible."

Zhu Yi was a little surprised, obviously she didn't expect Jiao Jing to speak so directly.

Glancing at the entourage standing quietly behind her, Zhu Yi hesitated for a moment, and said seriously.

"My son-in-law is quick to speak, so my nephew will not hide it. In my heart, my nephew naturally hopes that the Supreme Emperor will return to court as soon as possible. After all, my father fought bloody battles so that the Supreme Emperor can retreat safely."

"However, it is different from the mourning and prosperity of the Duke of England after the death of the Duke of England, where the title was stable, and now the Chengguo Duke's family is neglected, and even the title can be inherited, and it is not known. Such a big matter, let the court princes."

Jiao Jing and Zhang Min looked at each other.

In the final analysis, Zhu Yi felt that, no matter what, the British government had a title of honor, but since Chengguo’s government didn’t have any background, it was just a matter of beating the side drums. Bad, making wedding clothes for others for nothing.

Regarding this worry, Zhang Min took the lead.

"Don't worry, little father-in-law, since your two families are married, we are relatives of our own family. The old man just said that he will ask the Holy Mother to bestow the marriage and announce it to each mansion."

"In this way, you and my two families will be a good family. One will prosper and the other will suffer. If anything happens in the future, the British government and the young prince will bear it together."

The implication is that if the Holy Mother bestows a marriage, it is equivalent to telling the ruling and opposition parties that the government of Chengguo and the government of the United Kingdom will unite in the future.

If something happened to Cheng Guo Gongfu in the future, and the British government stood by and watched, it would definitely be looked down upon.

Seeing that Zhu Yi didn't respond, Zhang Min thought for a while, took out two documents from his sleeve, handed them up, and said.

"A few days ago, the old man heard that the Marquis of Anyuan's mansion had offended the young master. It was really inappropriate. The old man went there himself the day before yesterday. When he met Liu Pu, it was all messing around with his servants. He originally wanted to come to apologize in person. It just so happened that the old man came here today, so he brought all the property deeds of Zhuangzi as an apology."

Looking at the several land deeds in front of her, Zhu Yi's expression was rather ugly.

After Zhu Yong died in Yao'erling, he ran around, wanting the court to restore Zhu Yong as soon as possible, both out of filial piety and for his own reputation and status.

These four words sound illusory, but in fact, when they fall into reality, they are extremely cruel.

Among other things, since the past few days, various properties, villages, and shops under the name of Duke Cheng's mansion have been taken away by people openly and secretly.

The people who instigated him behind the scenes were all Shi Bo Shi Shu who he usually called out.

Cheng Guogong's mansion has been prominent for many years, and the family property is so rich. When Zhu Yong was still around, no one dared to make a mistake.

But now, the emperor obviously doesn't like Cheng Guogong's mansion, and the government and the public don't have any good comments on Zhu Yong, so there will be countless young people jumping out.

Everyone is innocent, but he is guilty of carrying a jade. Without a title, Cheng Guogong's mansion is just a piece of fat, and there are too many people who want to bully.

The Marquis of Anyuan is just one of them. As a confidant of the British government, the battle between the Duke of Chengguo and the Duke of England in the early years has affected the Marquis of Anyuan. Immediately jumped out.

Zhu Yi was no stranger to this kind of thing.

In fact, Duke Cheng's mansion does have a lot of contacts and family connections. As long as he asks, these uncles will help him.

However, one or two Zhuangzi, tens of acres of land, such a trivial matter, frequently disturbed these uncles, Zhu Yi was also embarrassed.

The dumb loss can only be swallowed by himself, this is the biggest reason why he has always wanted to get back the title.

With a sneer, Zhu Yi said flatly, "What does Shibo mean?"

Zhang Min obviously expected Zhu Yi's reaction, and said.

"My lord, some words don't sound good to me, but my lord understands the truth. I don't mean anything malicious. I just want to say, since my lord is willing to help save my third brother, then the British government will reciprocate."

"Don't worry, my lord, no matter what my lord decides this time, there will never be such a thing happening again in Anyuanhou's Mansion, Yangwuhou's Mansion, and Dingxihou's Mansion."

But there is no guarantee that other nobles, such as the rising nobles of Duke Feng, will do this.

This subtext, even if Zhang Min didn't say it, Zhu Yi could guess it.

His meaning is very simple, no matter what happens in the future, at least for now, forming an in-law relationship with the British government can guarantee other nobles, and they dare not become the idea of ​​the government.

Of course Zhu Yi understood this truth, but he remained silent and did not speak...
