Chapter 701 Father and Daughter

If Wu Dinghou's death was the trigger, then Deng Wenshao's impeachment was the best trigger, which successfully triggered a series of chain reactions between the DPRK and China.

Taiwei Lin realized "immediately" that this was a good opportunity. He did not stand with Su Ping to attack Prime Minister Chen, but immediately began to actively fight for the military power of the Western Army for "his own people".

Chen Chengxiang, who is currently in a state of desperation, and Su Ping, who is holding on to Chen's faction, will naturally not watch Taiwei Lin make a profit, and immediately devote his energy to competing with Taiwei Lin.

Right now, it seems that Lin Taiwei is in the best situation, followed by the Su faction, and Chen Chengxiang's lineage is in the worst situation.

However, Prime Minister Chen himself was not so pessimistic. As the emperor's father-in-law and the prime minister who had accompanied him for a long time, he knew the emperor very well!

Chen Pai is currently under the enemy's back and front, and it seems to be shaky, but it makes the emperor hesitate a bit.The emperor still remembers it clearly!Su Ping is the grandparent of the prince by blood. If Chen Xiang's lineage is down now, the Su faction will undoubtedly be the most powerful.

Therefore, Deng Wenshao's memorial and the Yushi doctor's memorial were handed over on the same day. The emperor was furious, but he did not make any decision on the spot. It is jointly handled with the sky-high price rouge case being handled by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and is jointly investigated and tried by the three judicial departments.

The emperor made it clear that no matter who is involved in this case, it cannot be tolerated.

Everyone knew that this was aimed at Empress Chen in the harem.Chen Cheng was quite embarrassed on the spot, but he did not make any defense at the court.

Because the emperor's memorial to Deng Wenshao's impeachment of the minister of the Ministry of Industry was not published.

The emperor's attitude was obvious, he didn't intend to push Chen Dang to the point of no return, but gave the Chen family a chance to breathe, but the price the emperor wanted was not small, Chen Chengxiang knew it well.

This time the emperor has only one goal - the power in the hands of Empress Chen.

Chen Chengxiang knew very well that although the emperor would still not abolish the empress, what he wanted was to strip all the power from Empress Chen and make her a puppet of the Weiyang Palace in real trouble, a bargaining chip used simply to contain the Chen family.

In fact, before the early court, Chen Chengxiang was still a little uneasy, but when the emperor's imperial decree was issued, he felt at ease, and even secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The power of the two evils is the lesser of two evils, half of the power of the six palaces of the daughter has been set aside before, if the other half is also temporarily gone, it is actually no big deal.Because the daughter's reliance in the harem is not only the power of the Sixth House, but also their Chen family's many years of hidden stakes in the harem, so there is no way out.

And the Minister of the Ministry of Industry must be kept!The Chen faction can no longer shrink the sphere of influence of the court, and must keep all important officials of the faction.

The emperor played his cards right, Prime Minister Chen understood it, and naturally other factions in the court also understood it.University scholar Su was a little disappointed, but he knew very well that the emperor had already made a decision, and Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry could only let it go temporarily.

Besides, Su Ping didn't wipe his own butt clean, so Mr. Feng, his confidant, can only talk about other things after he solves it.

Of course, this is only part of the reason.The more important reason is the Western Army.

Marquis Wu Ding died suddenly, and no faction in the court was prepared, so no one was sure of winning the military power of the Western Army. However, Taiwei Lin's attitude was very positive this morning. Strong vigilance.

Right now, the mentality of these two people is actually a bit subtle. They hope to win over Lieutenant Lin but they don’t want him to really get the military power of the Western Army. Therefore, today, Prime Minister Chen and Grand Master Su are still facing each other in other matters, but Taiwei Lin Regarding the captain's proposal on the selection of the generals of the Western Army, the two factions tended to unite and unify to the outside world.

The Secretary of the Ministry of War is a member of Taiwei Lin, so of course he will join forces with Taiwei Lin to fight for reason. The focus of the early court immediately shifted from the sky-high rouge case to the military power of the Western Army. Hair, stand on the sidelines.

All of this was within Xiao Jingheng's expectation.The brain circuits of these courtiers are really easy to guess!Xiao Jingheng didn't say a word, and looked at this group of people very bored, and they all followed the script he and Shangguanjing had preset in advance, as if they had rehearsed in advance.

A bunch of idiots!Do you really think that the military power of the Western Army is something they can remember?
In the early dynasty, Chen Xiangyi's faction seemed to be able to hold on, but not necessarily in the harem.

Empress Chen was summoned by the emperor to the imperial study that day, where she was reprimanded face-to-face and ordered to return to the palace to contemplate her mistakes, but she did not publicly order to seize power.

After Xiao Jingheng received the news, he sneered, was he waiting for Sanfa to come up with evidence so that he could be more confident?The superficial skills of the emperor, the papermaker, are really as good as a day for several years!Look at who doesn't know his mind!

And the empress dowager in the harem also soon received news from the foreign court. This old lady has never given up fighting for power and profit with her daughter-in-law, and she can be regarded as a god who has repeatedly defeated and fought.

This time when she heard that the Qingzhou Wu family's sky-high rouge case involved the Shangfu Bureau, the old lady immediately became agitated. She immediately stopped practicing Taoism and ordered someone to prepare a sedan chair, and was going to the imperial study to have a good chat with her son.

How can the illusory longevity be more fragrant than the right that can be obtained immediately?To hell with the old lady sitting still!

It's a pity that the emperor and the empress dowager are indeed mother and son, and the emperor's guess of the empress dowager's brain circuit is also accurate.He didn't wait for the old lady to come to the door, so he avoided seeing her very simply.

At present, the case with the Sanfa Division is still under trial, and the emperor does not want to make any promises to the empress dowager in advance.

The empress dowager wasted no time in the imperial study, but how could she give up so easily, so she immediately ordered someone to carry the sedan chair to turn around and go directly to Weiyang Palace.

The old lady planned very well. Empress Chen was very shrewd. Even when she was ordered to return to the palace to recuperate, she just stayed at home and never let go of the power in her hands.

Now there is finally a good opportunity, didn't the emperor ask Empress Chen to go back to the palace to think about it?She went to make use of the problem to make this behind closed doors escalate into grounding.

The empress is grounded, and affairs in the palace cannot be left alone. Concubine Lin Gui has already entered the cold palace, and none of the remaining Concubine Li, Zhao Jieyu, Lu Zhaoyi and her like can compete with her for the right to temporarily manage the sixth palace.

She, the empress dowager, was absolutely justifiable in taking charge of the Sixth Palace during the empress' confinement period.

Even before arriving at Weiyang Palace, the Empress Dowager had already planned how to completely irritate Empress Chen and make things develop in the direction she expected.

However, I don't know whether it was Empress Chen's bad luck or the Empress Dowager's bad luck. As the saying goes, it's better to come early than coincidental. When the Empress Dowager got off the sedan chair at the gate of Weiyang Palace, Empress Chen was alone in the study of Dongpian Hall.

 ---Here is the dividing line of the prime minister--
  Chen Chengxiang decided to protect the minister of the Ministry of Industry first, because he felt that after all, his daughter still had some cards in his hand, and he didn't know if this thought was self-comforting.
