Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 708 "Difficult" Choice
It should be said that this is the first time that the emperor has expressed his response to the recent doubts about the East Palace leaving the cabinet in front of the officials.

As for the statement itself, it is actually similar to what Wang Wen said, but when it comes from the mouth of the emperor, its meaning is even more different.

In particular, when the emperor cited the example of the prince in the harem, the officials had to seriously consider the feasibility of the East Palace leaving the cabinet at this time.

You know, many things, when they don't happen, people clearly know that it is possible to happen, but they always don't care.

However, when there is an example in front of you, you will be too worried.

The stable position of the Eastern Palace is more important than the prince's own well-being?
Of course it is...

"Your Majesty is benevolent and loves his relatives very much. Although he and His Highness the Crown Prince are not father and son, they treat them as if they were father and son. This is the great fortune of the country. How can you speak of selfishness?"

A moment later, an old voice sounded in the hall, and everyone took a closer look, only to find that the person who spoke was none other than Hu Wei, the Minister of Rites who was always present.

The great uncle had a gentle face at the moment, bowed slightly, and said in a serious voice.

"The ministers and others know your majesty's heart, but the Eastern Palace is the one who bears the weight of the country. Although His Royal Highness is young, he should be the heir. If he goes out of the cabinet to study as soon as possible, he will be the heir to educate the country."

"It's a good thing for Your Majesty to love the crown prince, but as the father of all people, how can you love the crown prince alone?"

"The East Palace's departure from the pavilion is to inherit the expectations of all people and the expectations of the officials. This is a great gift and righteousness. Your Majesty is sage and benevolent, and has all the people in the world in mind. You should let go of the small feelings in your heart and inherit the weight of the community. Order the East Palace to leave the pavilion as soon as possible. Make a great gift, and the whole society and court will be stable."

"Your Majesty bows his head to please, please think twice."

Mr. Hu hadn't expressed his views so clearly in the hall for a long time, so that the officials present didn't react for a while.

Is this still the amiable, long-sleeved and good at dancing, the big uncle who never stands out?
It is true that, as Hu Wei said, the reason given by the emperor is upright, and he cares about the prince, which no one can find fault with.

However, after a brief hesitation, all the ministers present did not speak, but like Hu Wei, they unanimously chose to continue admonishing the emperor and let Donggong leave the cabinet.

This truth is a bit cruel to say, but it is the truth.

For the crown prince, the bosses both care and don’t care. What they care about is the Eastern Palace’s Chuben, which represents the political significance. political significance.

And the little doll who is really the prince is actually just a political symbol in essence, and the bosses don't really care about it.

Therefore, even though the emperor had given an example, leaving the court to study too early would be harmful to the prince himself, but from the perspective of the courtiers, he still felt that it was worth taking the risk.

This was almost the consensus of many people present. After all, what the Son of Heaven said was only worry and possibility, not an inevitable fact.

Those who have been in court for a long time understand a truth, no matter how great the possibility is, it is illusory and ungraspable before it arrives. If you are tempted by this illusory and ungraspable possibility, give up the real benefits in front of you, Is the most stupid way.

To put it bluntly, if you don't see rabbits, you don't spread eagles. You can't fool these shrewd old people by painting big cakes.

Of course, the most important reason is that they consider political factors more than emotional ones.

It is certainly not advisable for the prince to work too hard, but it is the responsibility of the East Palace, a fate that the prince cannot escape. On this point, no matter how kind the minister is, he is sober and almost ruthless.

However, what they didn't expect was that Hu Wei, who has always been meek and reckless, would take the lead in being the first bird.

You know, although theoretically speaking, there is nothing wrong with Hu Wei's words, but after all, this is to refute the emperor's face, which is not like this old fox's approach.

However, although it is somewhat incomprehensible, it is always good to have someone in the lead, and, Mr. Hu's character, he will not do things that are not sure.

His actions at least showed that, in his mind, this matter could convince the emperor.

So, Zhu Jian who was on the side was immediately refreshed, and immediately followed, saying.

"Your Majesty, what Uncle Da Zong said is very true. Your Majesty thinks of the prince's hard work. It is the benevolence of the father and the kindness of his relatives. However, all people in the world hope that the East Palace will leave the cabinet as soon as possible, inherit the importance of the community, and understand the righteousness of filial piety for the world. The subjects set an example, to be loyal to His Majesty, to caress Li Shu, this is also the duty of the East Palace."

"Although His Majesty the Crown Prince is young, since he is the crown prince, he should bear the hope of all the people and should not slack off. I agree with what Uncle Da Zong said, and I implore His Majesty to bear the pain and let go of the love in his heart and strictly demand the East Palace. This is the only way to cherish the great love of all people in the world." .”

Zhu Jian's voice fell, and the other people present also reacted. Yu Qian's face showed a little struggle, but in the end, he still sighed and stepped forward to say the same.

"Your Majesty, that's exactly what I mean. The East Palace is the foundation of the world, not just the children of the folk, so I should bear its heavy responsibility and do my best for the world!"

With Hu Wei in the lead, Zhu Jian and Yu Qian followed closely behind, and the other people present gradually lost their worries. Wang Ao, Chen Yi, Chen Xun and others also stepped forward one after another, cupped their hands and opened their mouths.

Their words are similar, and they basically agree with what Hu Wei said.

However, amidst the echoes of a group of elders, another outlier naturally appeared, that is, Wang Wen, Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

Seeing the appearance of a group of colleagues admonishing each other, the old man did not know what to think, his face was rather ugly, he kept silent with his sleeves covered, and even slightly turned his body sideways, with a look of disdain.

However, for the other ministers, this lord heavenly official is giving face by not speaking, so they don't care about Wang Wen's stinky face at all.

Sitting on the throne, Zhu Qiyu sighed inwardly as he watched all the ministers below leaning over to invite him.

In fact, he had expected the immediate result. After all, what he said just now was not a lie, but something he had really experienced.

These ministers of the imperial court, to put it bluntly, are very ruthless!

The prince or even the emperor, in their hearts, seems to be high and high, but in fact, most of the time, it is often just a cold symbol, and it can only be a cold symbol.

In the final analysis, Zhu Qiyu, as he himself said, still has a bit of selfishness in the matter of Donggong leaving the pavilion.

The dispute with the Supreme Emperor is one thing, but Zhu Qiyu still doesn't feel bad about Zhu Jianshen, a little baby, and even feels a little bit guilty.

Although Zhu Qiyu knew very well that in the previous life, after this nephew ascended the throne, he restored the emperor's name and revised the real record for himself, not necessarily because of sincerity, but more out of political significance to appease the court and smooth people's hearts.

However, it is still the same sentence, no matter what the starting point is, if you receive benefits from others, you have received them, and you have to remember them if you receive benefits.

If the other party's original intention is not pure, and then obliterates Enyi, that is self-deception.

In the previous life, Zhu Jianshen, like Zhu Jianji, was an innocent person who was involved in the court situation, although as the princes of the heavenly family, this was their destined fate.

However, just like how he treated Ji Ge'er carefully in this life, this is not a reason for Zhu Qiyu to feel at ease.

It's just that, sometimes, people in the royal family can't help themselves. Even if Zhu Qiyu is the emperor, there is nothing he can do...
