Chapter 578 Whose Layout? (4)
"That's why I said, is it real or fake? Maybe it's just a stepping stone. After it's used, it's discarded again. Or maybe it's just for testing."

Qian Xia didn't express any further opinions on this. In her opinion, the emperor was suspicious by nature, and she was afraid that among so many courtiers, none of them could really convince him.

However, no matter whether Qian Xia is willing to believe it or not, the emperor finally made an order.

The emperor chose the first day of the twelfth lunar month, and suddenly issued a decree in the early court to restore the system of Ziye Guoshi.

For hundreds of years, Ziye has always had a national teacher. Of course, Ziye's national teacher is different from Cangming and Beimo. Ziye's national teacher does not have much authority, let alone military power.

But in Cangming and Beimo, the post of national teacher is sacred and noble.Their status is second only to the emperors of their own country.

In Ziye, although the title of National Teacher is respect, but the power in his hands is pitifully small. To put it bluntly, he is more like the head of the Qin Tianjian, who is only in charge of some astrology.

As soon as the emperor's decree came out, all the officials were shocked.

Sangqiu Zirui probably guessed the emperor's intention, but he just kept silent.

The second prince was a little anxious, but seeing his cousin's calm expression, he naturally learned to keep silent.

Immediately afterwards, the emperor issued another decree, canonizing Yun Cangli as Ziye's national teacher, and at the same time, he will also serve as the master of several princes in the palace, that is, the post of Taifu.

Because the emperor has not appointed a crown prince so far, but at this moment, Yun Cangli was suddenly appointed as the grand tutor, which caused great turmoil in the court.

Some young courtiers and newly promoted dignitaries did not know the previous prosperity of the Yun family, let alone what the surname Yun represented.

"Your majesty, Yun Cangli, is just an imperial businessman. It is already puzzling for him to be the national teacher. Now you canonize him as the grand master to teach the few underage princes in the palace. I'm afraid Not right. Please think twice, Your Majesty."

As soon as the young courtier finished speaking, he immediately felt the contemptuous gazes from both sides.

The emperor chuckled, "You don't know much about the Yun family. It's not an exaggeration to say that. However, Yun Qing is probably the most qualified person in the world to be the grand tutor. Don't say what you said in the future. Moreover."

Several young ministers were slightly puzzled, but they were overjoyed to see the faces of some seniors, and they couldn't help secretly guessing that this Yun Cangli was really capable.

King Changping hesitated for a moment, but he still came out and said, "My Majesty, when Old Master Yun retired, he once issued a strict order to his heirs not to be an official in the court. As for him, although he has a third-rank job, he never used it He went to the yamen to make an appointment, so he complied. Although the imperial decree has been issued, I'm afraid Master Yun will refuse to obey it."

Liu Xiang also came out and said, "Back to the emperor, King Changping's worries are not unreasonable. Old Mrs. Yun did have such last words back then, I'm afraid, it's hard to say to Mr. Yun."

Fang Qiaosheng frowned and said, "It is said that the king is the guide for the ministers. The emperor ordered the ministers to die, and the ministers had to die. The emperor just ordered him to enter the court to serve as the national teacher and Taifu. Master Yun should thank you for your kindness."

Prince Li also shook his head at this time and said, "Your Majesty, according to Weichen's understanding of Yun Cangli, I'm afraid he won't accept this decree."

The emperor still had a smile on his face, "I understand everyone's worries. It's just that my Ziye border has been repeatedly invaded by small countries. After several warnings to no avail, I decided not to indulge these barbarians. When it comes to fighting with soldiers, I still believe in Yun Aiqing's divination skills."

The meaning is clear, if there is a divination by the national teacher to predict a great victory, then the soldiers will naturally be in high spirits!But what if it was predicted to be unfavorable?
King Changping's face darkened slightly, how could this be supporting the Yun family?It was clearly a trick set up for Yun Cangli!

What fear do I, Zi Ye, have about the barbarians at the border?Why use any divination?
The emperor's move clearly means that the ulterior motives are not drinking.

Just for a while, many old officials were also a little confused about the emperor's sudden proposal to canonize Yun Cangli as a national teacher.The emperor's will is unpredictable, even if they have followed him for decades, they still cannot guess.

And when the decree was sent to Yunfu, it was informed by Yun Chang'an that my father had gone out to wander and was not in the mansion.

Without people around, this will is naturally unacceptable.

After the emperor heard the chief executive's report, his complexion immediately became gloomy.

"I don't know how to flatter you! Immediately ask someone to check to see if he is really not in the capital, or if he is pretending to deceive the king."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

As soon as King Changping returned to the mansion, he told Mu Liunian and Qian Xia about this matter.

Obviously, it was a lie that the emperor wanted to support the Yun family, but it was true to use the Yun family as a shield for the fourth prince.

"Uncle is not in Liangcheng at all. Naturally, it is impossible to accept this decree. The emperor's move is too hasty. Even if uncle is in the capital, he will not accept this decree. After all, there are grandfather's last words before."

King Changping was a little worried, "He's not here, so it's better to talk about it, but his home is in Liangcheng, so it's impossible for him not to come back for the rest of his life, right? Today is the first day of the new year, so why not come back before the New Year's Eve?"

Qian Xia chuckled, "Father, don't worry. Even if uncle is back, there is naturally a way for the emperor to withdraw his order. After all, this decree has not been officially announced, has it?"

Mu Liunian put his hand on his chin, "The emperor can think of this trick, it seems that he must know something, otherwise, it would be impossible to make such a decree suddenly."

"Old Master Yun, when the late emperor was alive, he served as a national teacher. However, he only served for a few years. When the first emperor was in his later years, the old man Yun had already resigned from the position of national teacher. Since then, the position of national teacher It has been hanging in the air. Now, the emperor suddenly brought up this matter again, it is really puzzling."

The focus of Qian Xia's attention has never been on the national teacher. "The post of national teacher is probably just a cover. What the emperor really wants uncle to do is the post of grand tutor. With this teacher-student relationship, future , Uncle can't abandon his students?"

Mu Liunian nodded, "Qianqian is right. The emperor first talked about the national teacher, but it was just to confuse everyone's attention. What the emperor really wants to do is to let uncle be the teacher of the fourth prince. That's the best way." Let the Yun family be the vanguard ahead of the fourth prince."

"Whether my uncle accepts the order or not, I'm afraid that the second prince will have a rift with the Yun family. Especially Sangqiu Zirui, he knows my uncle's ability. It is impossible for them to watch the matter with the emperor. contributed to."

"So what? Could it be that Sangqiu Zirui is still able to attack the Yun family?" Mu Liunian seemed to have guessed something, his face changed slightly, "I see! The emperor clearly did it on purpose! He wants to see if Sangqiu Zirui Will they attack the Yun family?"
