After crossing, I was dragged by the bamboo horse and became a queen

Chapter 283 The old ally who broke down

Although Xiao Jingheng told He Lingjun to send a message to Shangguanjing, so that his daughter-in-law would know.But He Lingjun thought about it carefully after returning home, and felt that it was better not to listen to his wife slave's idea.Of course He Lingjun knew about Xiao Jingheng's virtues, this guy wished he could report to his wife all the big and small things, but He Lingjun felt that, of course, the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

Anyway, Concubine Lin Gui and Xiao Jingheng can take care of this matter, and there is no need to bother Shangguan Jing. When the dust settles, it will not be too late for him to go to Shangguan Jing to inform him of the result.

Therefore, Shangguan Jing really didn't know anything about what happened in the palace these days, and she was still earnestly following Aunt Su's pre-job training for the concubine.

But even if Shangguanjing knew about it, she probably didn't have time to intervene.Because she has never been idle outside the palace. Recently, the inner palace is busy, and the outer court is not peaceful.Chen Chengxiang sent his granddaughter into the palace, and he was also very active in the layout of the court.

In the past few days, Master Xu, a scholar of Fuwen Pavilion, who participated in the censor's dereliction of duty.

On the surface, it seemed that the official had grabbed the braid of Bachelor Fuwenge, and the dereliction of duty was true, but it wasn't a big deal.But after careful study, there are quite a lot of articles in it.

This Lord Xu is none other than the former Minister of Rites, the biological father of the former Concubine Xu in the Huaiyang Palace, and the grandfather of Xiao Jingyan, the son of the former Huaiyang Prince.The Xu family was born in Huainan, and they were family friends with the Chen family in Donghai County. The two families had intermarried for generations. Prime Minister Chen's mother was from the Xu family. Strictly speaking, Mrs. Chen was also Master Xu's distant aunt.

Therefore, the Xu family and the Chen family have a long-standing relationship as allies in the court. The children of the two families have always had a tradition of supporting each other as officials in the court.

After the case of King Huaiyang's rebellion, the emperor did not expand the scope of the investigation because of the extensive involvement, so most of the officials related to the Huaiyang Palace were not implicated.But this does not include the hapless Minister of Rites.

Because he was Xiao Jingyan's grandfather, and Xiao Jingyan was the one who killed the fourth prince himself, Taiwei Lin and the emperor wanted to cut Xiao Jingyan alive.It's a pity that Xiao Jingyan had already been put to death on the day of the treason, and even if the emperor wanted to take his anger out on him, he had no chance. Under such circumstances, the emperor and Lin Taiwei happily took the anger out on Xiao Jingyan's hapless grandfather.

Before the case of King Huaiyang was concluded, Taiwei Lin asked someone to play Xu Shangshu. The emperor didn't even hesitate, and directly pulled him from the post of Shangshu in the Ministry of Rites and relegated him to the position of a fourth-rank Taizhong doctor. , not only downgraded, but also an idle job without rights.

The Minister of Rites has since been replaced by Fan Shangshu.

The Chen and Xu families have always held together, and the demotion of Shangshu Xu naturally dealt a blow to Prime Minister Chen's power in the court. Therefore, in the next few days, the Chen and Xu clans worked hard in many ways. It was easy to transfer Mr. Xu back to his official position.

Originally, Prime Minister Chen meant to ask Mr. Xu to wait patiently, and then he would be promoted again after a few days.Mr. Xu himself originally planned in this way.

However, in the following days, the situation in the palace and court changed day by day. First, the emperor pointed out Xiao Jingheng to Concubine Lin as his adopted son, the Su family and the Lin family chose to cooperate, and then Princess Cheng had a sudden miscarriage. The palace is in a state of desperation.

On the outer court side, the Lin family and the Su family took the lead in uniting and falling to the heir to the throne, which made the Chen family lose the opportunity and fell into a passive position.

Under such circumstances, Mr. Xu, who was originally a frightened bird, thought about it and felt that since Xiao Jingheng's succession to the throne was a certainty, he might as well show his loyalty to the prince's party first, so he did not discuss it with Chen Chengxiang, but contacted Su in private. University scholar, I hope that University scholar Su can mediate from this, so that he can have the opportunity to sue Lin Taiwei, the grandfather of the fourth prince.

In fact, Master Xu's original intention was to hope that Lieutenant Lin would not catch him.It is true that his grandson killed Lin Taiwei's grandson, Master Xu did not dare to complain, but he did not instigate this matter. He was really unaware of King Huaiyang's rebellion, so I hope that Master Su can help explain explain.

But the old man Su Ping is so shrewd. When Mr. Xu came to him, he immediately saw an opportunity.Su Ping readily agreed to Master Xu's request, then turned around and consulted with Taiwei Lin privately.

When the two old foxes combined, it would be shameful not to take advantage of Mr. Xu who came to your door.

Then Master Xu found out that Bachelor Su had overfulfilled the task.Lin Taiwei not only did not hold him any longer, but instead invited the emperor to promote him to the third rank of Fuwenge Bachelor.

After Chen Chengxiang got the news, his face turned green with anger.Something happened to Xu, and he spent so much effort to save him, but the old bastard turned into a white-eyed wolf in a blink of an eye, and even voted for his political opponent. How could he not make his teeth itch with hatred.

Mr. Xu is also suffering at the moment, but it is too late to regret that he can't hold his breath. Now, this Fuwenge Bachelor, whether he does it or not, has already offended Prime Minister Chen, because he is afraid of further offending Lin Taiwei and others. Master Su University, so after much deliberation, Master Xu honestly went to Fuwen Pavilion to take up his post.

And Chen Chengxiang refused to watch his former best friend become the team of his opponent, so he quickly found the censor to participate in the performance of Mr. Xu, trying to pull him out of the fat vacancy of the third rank.

The operation of Lin Taiwei and Su Dashi has actually caused damage to the alliance of Chen and Xu for many years. The former allies, in order to protect the interests of their own families, are choking with each other.

But the other ministers in the DPRK watched from the sidelines one after another, just waiting for them to pinch almost, so as to take advantage of it!

No one knew that the prince and concubine, who was sitting at home earnestly learning the rules, had the same brains as the courtiers.However, Shangguanjing didn't have the appetite of those important ministers in the court. What she stared at were all corner jobs that didn't attract people's attention.

Let others eat the big fish first. Shangguanjing thinks that with her current power, the obscene development route is more suitable for her.

"This is the latest batch of transfer lists," said Shangguan Mu Yun, who "eating inside and out", followed his uncle and father after a meeting in the study room in the front yard, and after dinner, he found an excuse to go to the back house to find Shangguan Jing : "Uncle got it from a friend in the official department. There is also this, I asked Su Chaoyun for it, a new batch of Hanlin list waiting to be filled."

"My father's list is all above the fifth grade." Shangguanjing shook his head: "It's useless to us. The position is too high, many people are staring at us, we have no chance. Su Chaoyun is still useful, third brother is What reason did you find to come to him?"

　--- This is the dividing line outside the palace ---
　　The most fundamental reason why the Chen family was so eager to tie themselves and the prince together was in the court.Chen Chengxiang, an old man, has had some troubles recently, which is why the Chen family is so persistent in wanting to marry Miss Chen Jiu to Xiao Jingheng.

　　For the current Chen family, they are already one step behind the Lin family and the Su family, and have lost the opportunity.

　　Friends, you are so smart, you must be able to figure out why the Chen family is one step behind.

　　Because if Miss Shangguan hadn't had a miscarriage, the Chen clan really planned to kill Xiao Hengheng and force the emperor to have a grandson!
