Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 672

Jiao Jing should be regarded as the only one among the people present who was not interested in the young army.

After all, he is only a relative, and does not have the branching relationship and huge family like Xungui, so even if the East Palace has a young army, it will not be of much benefit to him.

Because of this, he was more rational in this matter, but he couldn't stop the other families from being moved. In the end, he could only agree to give it a try.

After all, it seems that this matter is led by the Chengguo government, and the pressure to bear is also the greatest.

Since Zhu Yi is willing to take risks, he has no reason to stop them.

After roughly agreeing on the direction, everyone discussed some details, and then they went back to prepare. You must know that even if it is not for the young army, at least, the East Palace cannot be delayed any longer.

Everyone dispersed, but Zhu Yi stayed behind.

Because, there is still a level that has not passed!
In fact, the biggest reason why he just came here was that these people suspected that he was secretly collaborating with the Yang family to bring down Ren Li.

It's still the same sentence, it's nothing to bring down Ren Li, but joining forces with the Yang family will make these people have to wonder if he has the idea of ​​falling to the emperor.

Just now Zhu Yi explained to everyone that he didn't agree to Yang Jie, but Jiao Jing and others just wanted to maintain their position in the court discussion, so he just knocked on the Yang family.

This explanation, no matter whether everyone believes it or not, but with the present memorial, even if they have doubts in their hearts, they can only suppress it temporarily.

However, there was one person that he couldn't hide, and that was Zhang Min in front of him!

At that time, in order to persuade Zhang Wei, Zhu Yi had clearly stated his position, and even told Zhang Xiang almost all the conversations between him and Yang Jie.

Therefore, Zhang Xiang knew clearly that he had already made plans to join forces with the Yang family.

In this way, the explanation just now does not make sense.

In the flower hall, people had already left, Zhang Min pressed the teacup in his hand, stared at Zhu Yi in front of him, and asked.

"Young master, don't you have anything to say to the old man?"

For this questioning, Zhu Yi was well prepared and answered with a calm expression.

"Second Master means, why didn't I truthfully explain what I said to Second Master that day to Jiao Consort and the others?"

Shaking her head lightly, Zhu Yi restrained her expression.

"Second Master, your two families are family friends, and now Qin and Jin are close friends. I can say something to Second Master, because if you and my two families are in-laws, we are in the same breath. , that is, the British government is good, the British government is good, and the Chengguo government is good."

"This principle is also the same in reverse, so I can open up with the second master and say that everything we do is for the restoration of the title, and the second master will also believe that I have no other intentions. However, the second master asks himself, if this is the case, I will be with you." Those people said, would they think that I was just trying to revive the title, or...would they think that I was betting on both ends?"

In the conversation before the court meeting, the two of them had actually made it very clear.

They do this purely for their own benefit.

Cheng Guo's government wants to restore the title, and the British government wants to take back the power from Ren Li. Although this will deal a big blow to the power that the Supreme Emperor has formed, they don't care.

In the final analysis, for them, the strength of the family is far more important than the so-called loyalty!
Therefore, Zhu Yi is still sure about persuading Zhang Min.

What Zhang Xiang is hesitating now is nothing more than what he just talked about just now. The early contact between him and the Yang family may be in favor of the emperor.

However, Zhu Yi didn't believe it. Zhang Xiang hadn't thought of this before. He knew this but still did it. It can only show that he still tends to believe Zhu Yi in his heart.

Now it's just that after hearing what Jiao Jing and others said, my heart is shaken again.

Looking at Zhang Min's silent face, Zhu Yi still shook the memorial in her hand and said.

"Second Lord, you have seen the content of this memorandum. If I am really as Concubine Jiao and others guessed, then I only need to push the East Palace out of the pavilion. Why bother to take such a big risk? Risk, how about fighting for the young army for His Royal Highness?"

"Or, second master thinks, what's the benefit to the emperor by handing over the young army to the East Palace? Or, my mere down-and-out Duke Cheng's mansion is worth such a big price for the emperor?"

The reason is not complicated, Zhu Yi believes that Zhang Min can figure it out clearly.

However, to his surprise, after he finished speaking, Zhang Min still stared at him, with a somewhat struggling look on his face.

This expression made Zhu Yi feel a little uneasy, but he still didn't speak.

If something really happened that he didn't expect, then, at this time, it would be wrong to say more.

Finally, after a while, Zhang Min sighed softly and said.

"You're right. Forming a small army for the East Palace is indeed harmful to the emperor. Our emperor probably won't take such a risk."

"However, little prince, do you know the real reason why Jiao Jing and others targeted you?"

Zhu Yi frowned, but her expression was not too disturbed, said.

"Appreciate further details."

"Ren Li sent a letter!"

As soon as Zhang Min opened his mouth, he was shocked.

You know, only a few days have passed since the court meeting, and Ren Li was arrested in a heavily guarded imperial prison.

On Jin Yiwei's side, since the leak of Xu Bin and others last time, Commander Lu Zhong has rectified it. Under such circumstances, Ren Li still has the ability to spread the news?
Zhu Yi was startled, and subconsciously wanted to ask how the news got out, but in the end, he still endured it.

It doesn't fit his position!

As a diehard loyalist of the Supreme Emperor who has just been suspected, what he should ask now is...

"So, everything today is the meaning of Ren Hou?"

Zhu Yi's eyes were heavy, and there was a hint of hostility in her tone.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Min shook his head with a wry smile and said.

"Young master, don't worry too much. The letter from Marquis Ren didn't mention the young master."

As a result, Zhu Yi's complexion improved a little, and she asked.

"Then what did he say?"

Zhang Xiang watched Zhu Yi's complexion become more and more complicated. Obviously, he was still struggling in his heart. After a while, in the end, trust still prevailed. He sighed and said.

"Ren Li wrote two things in the letter. The first one is the content of his conversation with Yang Neng!"

Zhu Yi frowned, but said nothing, waiting for Zhang Min's next words.

At the court meeting, Yang Hong produced two pieces of evidence, one was Yang Xin's family letter, and the other was Yang Neng's self-report.

No one has actually seen these two pieces of evidence, except for the Son of Heaven. Therefore, many people are guessing that what is written on it may not be as simple as what everyone sees now, and Zhu Yi is naturally the same. one of them.

However, it is true that he overlooked this point, that is, besides directly reading the self-report, there is another way to know the content above, and that is to find Ren Li, the person involved!
Once the words were spoken, there was nothing to hesitate, Zhang Yu sorted out some words and continued.

"According to what Marquis Ren said, he did promise Yang Neng at the time. As long as he can persuade Yang Hong to take the initiative to prevent the Ministry of War from reorganizing the army, he can bring various nobles to jointly build momentum for the Marquis of Changping, and at the same time he can arouse the army. The lieutenant generals will cooperate together."

There is nothing surprising about this, it was mentioned in the court meeting, but what happened next was something that Zhu Yi couldn't even imagine...

"However, although Yang Neng is young, he is known for his resourcefulness. Although he wanted to help the Yang family get out of the predicament, he did not trust Li rashly. At that time, Yang Neng asked Ren Li three questions."

"First, what if the Yang family made such a move, and Ren Li suddenly repented at the court meeting, so what?"

"Secondly, although the rectification of the military colony has violated the interests of the nobles, a mere Marquis of Ningyuan dares to promise for the nobles of the family. Where does he have the confidence?"

"Thirdly, although the Yang Mansion is in dire straits, it will not drink poison to quench its thirst. Rectifying the military settlements is a matter jointly promoted by the emperor and civil servants. If the Yang Mansion leads the nobles to fiercely oppose it at the court meeting, then even if the current situation is over How will you gain a foothold in the court after this difficult time?"

"After all, even if the honorable nobles can unite temporarily, but after overcoming this difficulty, everyone must still take care of themselves. At that time, the Yang family, which has become the first bird, can only bear the consequences by itself."

After hearing these words, Zhu Yi didn't know what to say for a moment.

After a while, he spoke.

"This Yang Neng is bold. The situation at that time clearly indicated that the Yang family was in trouble, but his questioning made it seem like the Ningyuan Hou family was begging him."

It could be seen that Zhu Yi was deliberately enlivening the gloomy atmosphere, so Zhang Min's expression relaxed and he sighed.

"That's right, everyone in the Yang family is desperate. Yang Hong is like this in court discussions, and so is Yang Neng."

"At that time, Yang Neng made it clear that although the Yang family was in dire straits, it was impossible to make wedding clothes for others."

The so-called clothes married by others naturally refers to the fact that the Yang family led the nobles to oppose the rectification of the army. After success, the nobles gained benefits, but the Yang family had to face the storm of the emperor and civil servants.

What Yang Neng meant was that even if the Yang family couldn't escape this catastrophe, they wouldn't be in vain to take advantage of the nobles.

This appearance of burning everything together is quite similar to what Yang Hong did in the court meeting.

"So, what did Marquis Ren say?"

In fact, Zhu Yi had already vaguely guessed something in her heart.

The meeting between Ren Li and Yang Neng was actually a negotiation. The situation of the Yang family was worrisome, but Ren Li's life might not be easy either.

Most likely, it was Ren Li who took the initiative to approach Yang Neng and let the other party see what was going on, so he assumed a tough attitude from the very beginning.

Yang Neng didn't really want to burn everything with this move, but wanted to cheat Ren Li to gain more bargaining chips.

Therefore, judging from the current situation, this bargaining chip is obviously still taken by Yang Neng.

Although he didn't open his mouth to ask, Zhu Yi can imagine that it must be difficult for Ren Li to spread the news from the imperial prison at this time. Maybe he used the last connections he had accumulated over the years. .

For such a rare opportunity, Ren Li only talked about his conversation with Yang Neng if he didn't talk about anything else. In fact, it is very self-explanatory.

"Ren Hou..."

Zhang Min sighed helplessly again, and said.

"It may be because I was too anxious at the time. After all, you know that the witness who didn't know the truth was in the hands of Yang Xin."

"So, in order to gain Yang Neng's trust, Ren Hou told him the truth..."

"Oh, no wonder..."

Zhu Yi sneered, and gradually had a rough outline of the ins and outs of this matter in her mind.

Yang Neng's doubts, or what he was worried about, was actually very simple, that is, if the Yang family took refuge in Ren Li, how could they still keep their own family after the turmoil of rectifying the military settlements passed.

The survival of a marquis mansion cannot be taken care of by Ren Li alone!

Then, it is natural to find someone who can take care of it, so it is not difficult to guess who Ren Li can move out.

Too emperor!
Of course, there is also the East Palace. No matter what, the Supreme Emperor is the elder brother of the emperor in terms of etiquette.

Especially now, when the Son of Heaven still maintains respect for the Supreme Emperor, if the Yang family joins the Supreme Emperor with great fanfare, the possibility of self-protection will be much greater.

Of course, it is also possible to usher in a more severe blow from the emperor, but after all, if this is done, the reputation of the emperor will be greatly damaged, and the bad relationship between the Tian family will no longer be concealed.

Whether a Yang family is worth such a high price for the emperor is debatable.

This is not a road that is sure to be safe, but at least it is a road that has a chance to go through.

The Yang family is not afraid of being burned together, but they definitely don't want to be burned together.

Therefore, when Ren Li moved out of the Supreme Emperor, there was really room for further discussion on this matter.

However, in this way, Ren Li's bargaining chip was leaked out, and now that Yang Neng had turned his back, the conversation between them became evidence that the Supreme Emperor blatantly interfered in the government.

Of course, it is not an ironclad proof, just like what Ren Li argued in court, this is just the words of Yang Neng's family, which does not explain anything.

However, most of the time, above the court, you don't need any hard evidence, you just need to believe.

Not to mention that the Yang family has reached such a desperate situation, even at its peak, how could Yang Neng dare to risk the world's disgrace and frame the Supreme Emperor?

At that time, there will inevitably be such rumors in the court. In this way, any actions made by the Supreme Emperor will inevitably be affected.

This can also explain why today's bureau came...

Since Yang Neng's self-reporting book clearly stated that Nangong was behind Ren Li, if Zhu Yi agreed to the proposal of joining forces with the Yang family, then it is very likely that the final direction of this court discussion was not Ren Li at all. It's the Supreme Emperor!
If it is said that Zhu Yi joined forces with the Yang family in the past because he might have coveted Yang Hong's rebuttal, then after the news of Ren Li came out, once Zhu Yi agreed to join forces with the Yang family, it is possible that he has already taken refuge in the emperor. Sex just skyrocketed.

Under such circumstances, Jiao Jing and his group were naturally uncomfortable, and they had to test it out.

After realizing it, Zhu Yi was overjoyed, fortunately he brought this memorandum here today, otherwise, it would be really difficult to pass the test based on his perfunctory words to Yang Jie.

Even now, with Youjun's proposal, Jiao Jing and the others are probably dubious. Unless this matter can really be settled, otherwise, the doubts in their hearts may not be dispelled for a long time.

"Apart from this?"

"Yang Neng's letter from Chen Shuli, even if he wrote something, but since the emperor pressed it, it means that he also knows that even if this kind of family talk can be discussed by people in the court, it can't cause a big storm."

"Of course, this is definitely not the kindness of the Qianqing Palace. He pressed this matter because he wanted to settle the score in the future, right?"

"Ren Hou took a lot of trouble to send the letter, what else did he say, the second master should not keep it to himself."
