Step on a branch

Chapter 291 Nonsense
In the imperial study room, Grand Master Huang sat aside.

The emperor looked at the booklet in his hand and remained silent for a long time.

Taishi Huang didn't urge, just watched the nose with eyes and mind with nose.

He knew very well that the emperor's heart would be troubled by the fact that the Qiyang Mansion sent it to Beijing quickly.

Since the "disappearance" of the three mansions that day, the wind in the capital has been unstable.

Sometimes east wind, sometimes west wind.

Some people were angry at their rebellious attitude, some people thought that there must be something inside, and there were many quarrels in the Golden Luan Hall, let alone after the imperial court.

It's not just the officials arguing, but the people also have their own ideas.

Of course, no one can convince anyone.

In Huang Taishi's view, this is not surprising at all.

After all, not everyone, like him, grasped the whole picture of the matter.

I don't know that Lin Xiaozi is the posthumous son of the former prince, I don't know that the emperor is suspicious of this, I don't know the root cause of Yongninghou's insistence on "sickness" to go to the war, naturally, for the last result of "the disappearance of the three houses", I will There are different opinions.

Thinking of thinking, it is a way.

There is a break in the middle of the road, or there is no torch in hand, no stars in the sky, and you can't even tell the north, south, east, and west. Isn't it just walking into a maze?

In the end, the ghost hit the wall.

Either by mistake, confused, or just continue to circle around.

In the Thousand Steps Corridor, there are countless confused people these days.

No matter from which angle you look at it, there are always reasons why it doesn't make sense, so you say yours, I say mine, and point out each other's irrationality, but they can't justify themselves.

From Huang Taishi and Fan Taibao's point of view, this is not a good thing.

All the thoughts are allocated to those, and there will inevitably be delays in government affairs.

Dazhou has a vast territory, and officials at all levels act step by step, with him and the Lord Taibao in charge of them, so there will be no major troubles in a short period of time.

If it takes a long time, it means moving forward in a meandering way, and the general direction can be controlled.

However, this is not always a long-term solution.

Sooner or later, you have to get back on the right track.

And, the sooner the better.

However, the rhythm and speed are not in the hands of him and Fan Taibao, but in the hands of Lin Fan and Yongninghou.

Just because of these things, even though Grand Master Huang saw clearly and decided on the path he was going to take, he was still so worried that it was hard to find one or two black hairs on his head in less than a month.

Now, it is almost silver white.

When he looked at himself in the mirror, Taishi Huang was not used to it. Thinking about it, it would be weird if he was still an old god and there was no ups and downs when he had such a big change in the court.

Such a troubled old man looks ugly, but it suits him very well.

As for Fan Taibao...

That man has been slow for decades.

Everyone is no stranger to it.

During this period of time, the yamen still did not find the whereabouts of Eunuch Xu, including Li Sheng, who disappeared that day, and other gangsters. No one was alive or dead.

The Yamen almost turned Xisi Hutong upside down, but the rain was too heavy that night, and no clues could be found.

There is no reason for the leakage of Changning Palace.

The theory of Tianlei is too ugly. When it comes out, it is said that a mouse knocked over the lampstand, and the fire ignited.

There was no progress, and the court and the court were each insisting on their own opinions. The emperor's state of mind, Huang Taishi knew as soon as he thought about it.

There has been some progress today.

There is no doubt that Qiyang Mansion's excerpts can break the balance, but obviously, the emperor is not very happy.

Grand Master Huang had already read the booklet before it was handed in to the palace.

Princess Pingyang appeared in Qiyang City, saying that she was coerced by the Yongning Hou Mansion and Dingguo Duke Mansion, and that she could not rebel for no reason.

In the eyes of those who don't know the inside story, the rhetoric in this brochure can become iron proof that the Lin and Qin families rebelled.

Those who still don't believe that Marquis Yongning will betray Da Zhou can only shut up after reading this note.

Even if you think "I'm afraid there's something hidden" in your heart, at least you should be more honest with your mouth.

However, he and Fan Taibao knew the inside story.

The emperor is even more clear.

Will Princess Pingyang be coerced?
She not only rebelled, but also made reasons.

She disappeared from Beijing and appeared in Qiyang, there must be her purpose.

Everything she did was to pull the emperor off the dragon chair and let Lin Fan sit on it.

Of course Tang Tzu didn't dare to talk nonsense, but Tang Tzu couldn't stand the eldest princess talking nonsense.

Let the emperor use the story made up by the eldest princess to prove the rebellion of Lin and Qin. It is like the emperor has a serious illness. Uncomfortable, the emperor ate it, disgusting enough.

Grand Master Huang put himself in the shoes of himself, he would have to twist his nose if he put this matter on himself, not to mention the emperor's temper...

The emperor was indeed very depressed.

What a Zhao Gui!
In the past 20 years, his imperial sister has restrained all her sharpness.

He seldom makes friends and travels, and spends most of his time in the eldest princess's mansion, only entering the palace to meet the empress dowager.

So much so that he was used to her current appearance.

So much so that he also forgot how fierce and fierce Zhao Gui was once.

Zhao Gui had pretended to be an honest person for 20 years, but now she stopped pretending, the real her was the one in the Qiyang government office.

Looking up from the notebook, the emperor suppressed his temper and said: "Someone bring Pingyang back."

Taishi Huang stroked his beard.

The word "belt" is very interesting.

Huang Taishi asked directly: "How to bring it back? Please let the emperor express it."

The emperor's eyes sank.

Grand Master Huang pretended not to see it, and continued to babble: "According to the brochure, the eldest princess is not a traitor, so Beijing can only invite her instead of suppressing her. How will the guard of honor be arranged when she is invited back to Beijing?"

The emperor's mouth twitched in anger.

Just Zhao Gui is not a traitor?She even put the word "rebel" on her forehead!
But it's useless to talk to Grand Master Huang about this.

It was impossible for him to tell the old grand master that Zhao Gui had waited for 20 years for his nephew to grow up and hold the military power in his hands.

"I……"

The emperor thought about it, but he still hadn't made up his mind, and spread the word that the empress dowager came.

"Mother, please go back," the emperor said, "I am discussing matters with the Grand Master, and I will go to the Palace of Compassion later."

Before Eunuch Ji went out to persuade, the Empress Dowager had already strode in.

"Just in time, the Ai family also has something to discuss with the emperor and the grand master." The empress dowager said.

Such a strong attitude made the emperor very dissatisfied, and he couldn't drive out the empress dowager who came in, so he could only wave his hand at Eunuch Ji.

Ji Gonggong led the people back out.

The empress dowager then said: "The Ai family heard that Pingyang is in Qiyang?"

As soon as this remark came out, Grand Master Huang was a little surprised, but after thinking about it again, it became clear.

Qiyang is Yan's hometown.

The eldest princess appeared in Qiyang, and Tang Choi hurriedly sent the booklet to Beijing. How could no one in the Yan clan report to the empress dowager?

　Thank you book friend *stay sunny everywhere* for your reward.
