HBWnovel Chapter 17
Chapter 17
Five days ago, the six Gu Ming ministers took turns entering the palace to raise the little emperor and told the officials in the court.
In the early morning of this day, who would have thought that Taifu Li had proposed this matter in public and let it go.
He Zuoxiang:? ? ?
Liu Shangshu from the household department was equally confused.
What's the matter with this Tai Tuo, why didn't he discuss with them in advance when he suddenly changed his mind?Just say it directly in the court, isn't this making trouble!
Most officials looked puzzled, not knowing why the matter was dropped.
He Zuoxiang looked at Zhao Youxiang, hoping that the other party would question Mrs. Li.Unexpectedly, Zhao Youxiang just looked thoughtful, without any dissatisfaction or surprise on his face, obviously he knew Taifu Li's plan a long time ago!
All of a sudden, He Zuoxiang became angry!This person surnamed Zhao actually secretly cooperated with the person surnamed Li, and put him together!It is agreed that important matters must be discussed by six people, and will be announced after unanimous approval.As a result, Taifu Li and Zhao Youxiang discussed things behind his back!Then announce the matter directly in the court!
His face darkened, and He Zuoxiang turned his head to look at Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of War.
Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of War met Shanghe Zuoxiang's unfriendly gaze, and immediately looked surprised, as if he had just learned about it.
He Zuoxiang stared deeply at Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of War, hoping that the other party would refute Taifu Li.
Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of War wondered why Zuoxiang He only stared at him when there were so many people in the hall?
Finally, Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of War asked helplessly: "Does Prime Minister Zuo have any suggestions?"
He Zuoxiang asked Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of War with a smile on his face, "Don't tell me Zhou Shangshu didn't propose?"
Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of War understood that He Zuoxiang wanted to use him as a gunman and let him refute Taifu Li.
Although Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of War was born as a general, he has already figured out a way to survive when he climbed to this position.Don't show up, don't talk too much, don't do unnecessary things, anyway, you can play haha as much as you can, if the other party still doesn't give up, then it will cause trouble.
So he turned his head to look at Song Shangshu and Zhao Youxiang of the Ministry of Officials, and asked them aloud: "I wonder if Youxiang and Song Shangshu have any suggestions for what the Taifu said?"
Seeing this, other officials felt weird.Didn't these six people discuss this matter?He Zuoxiang's reaction obviously disagrees with this matter.Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of War obviously did not want to refute the matter Li Taifu raised, so he pushed Zhao Youxiang and Song Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials to deal with He Zuoxiang.What happened to these six people?
Zhao Youxiang glanced at Song Shangshu, Ministry of Officials, and did not intend to speak.
Received Zhao Youxiang's look, Song Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials understood, and said: "Song has no objection."
As a right minister, the meaning of Song Shangshu in the official department represents the meaning of Zhao Youxiang.
Li Taifu asked He Zuoxiang lightly: "Could it be that Zuoxiang has objections to this matter?"
He Zuoxiang stared at Mrs. Li unpredictablely.
It's great!These people put him together!Do it yourself!
Manager Wang was holding the little emperor and standing above them, looking at them calmly.
Gu Yang didn't sleep, he was playing with little hands.Manager Wang is really a talent!These Gu Ming ministers were played around by Manager Wang.Next, Manager Wang should release Lu Erniang on stage, right?
He Zuoxiang's face was ugly, he didn't answer Li Taifu's words, but asked a sharp question.
"If you enter the palace and take turns raising His Majesty, then who does the Grand Tutor want to take care of His Majesty?"
Mrs. Li was about to answer when Mr. Wang spoke up.
"Pass down the imperial edict of the Empress Dowager!"
Hearing this, Taifu Li and the others raised their heads to look at Director Wang in unison, with a bad feeling.
Next, Manager Wang read out the content of Yizhi.The general idea is that Empress Dowager Ning is in poor health and cannot raise the little emperor for the time being, so she sent someone to bring Lv Erniang to the capital, and named Lv Erniang "Hui Niangzi", and asked Lv Erniang to raise the little emperor on her behalf.
At this time, Taifu Li realized that this matter may be caused by Manager Wang!They know the situation of Empress Dowager Ning best, so how could they issue a decree!
Now the harem is ruled by Chief Wang, who not only keeps the Imperial Seal, but also the golden seals of the Empress Dowager and Empress!He can do whatever he wants!Unless Empress Dowager Ning herself came to the court to deny this edict, how would the other officials know that there was something wrong with this edict!In front of so many officials, Li Taifu and others could not tell everyone that Queen Mother Ning was not ill.Manager Wang must have figured out that they dare not speak out about this matter, so he dared to act so boldly!
Director Wang ignored the dead stares of Li Taifu and others, and said calmly: "Do you have any doubts about the Queen Mother's edict?"
When Manager Wang read out this edict, He Zuoxiang thought it was Taifu Li who did it behind his back.But looking at the faces of Li Taifu and Zhao Youxiang, he found that things were not as he guessed.Could it be that Li Taifu and Zhao Youxiang didn't know about this Yizhi beforehand?If they didn't know, how could they discuss against him behind his back to give up the matter of taking turns going to the palace to raise the little emperor?
This decree must absolutely not be agreed to, otherwise it will encourage the evil trend of Manager Wang promulgating the decree indiscriminately in the name of the queen mother.
Li Taifu said coldly: "I have doubts! But the old man wants to discuss with the Queen Mother!"
Zhao Youxiang then said: "There are doubts about the truth! I need to discuss with the Empress Dowager!"
As a right-handed faction, Song Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials must of course follow suit.
On the contrary, He Zuoxiang, who was put together by these people just now, did not open his mouth to question it.
He Zuoxiang didn't speak aloud, and Liu Shangshu of the household department naturally wouldn't open his mouth to question.
He Zuoxiang's silence made other officials think deeply.Li Taifu and the right-handed faction all objected to this Yizhi, but the left-handed faction did not object, it seems that they knew about it in advance?Could it be that Queen Mother Ning didn't tell Li Taifu and others about this when she was drafting this edict, but only He Zuoxiang?
Manager Wang smiled lightly, and responded to Taifu Li and the others: "Since the Tutor and Prime Minister You have doubts, you two will ask the Empress Dowager in person after you retire. It's just that the Empress Dowager ordered this decree to be promulgated. Our family has already promulgated it. From now on From the beginning, Mrs. Hui will temporarily take the place of the Empress Dowager to take care of His Majesty."
Taifu Li's face turned black, this eunuch surnamed Wang is so courageous!
Zhao Youxiang looked displeased and was staring at He Zuoxiang.He Zuoxiang didn't question this Yizhi, did he know it in advance?Could it be that He Zuoxiang has colluded with Director Wang?Right!Manager Wang has always kept himself safe, if someone hadn't urged him to do such a thing, how could he have dared to do such a thing?He Zuoxiang asked Mr. Wang to come up with this decree in order to arrange for Erniang Lu to enter the palace to secretly murder the little emperor!The more he thought about it, the more ugly Zhao Youxiang's face became.
Before they could refute, Manager Wang looked down at Gu Yang, and said to everyone: "Your Majesty, it's time to eat. If you have something to report, please report it to the meeting room and leave the court!"
Gu Yang gave Manager Wang a lot of face, and wailed in cooperation with him.
Manager Wang was happy, and looked at the villain in his arms softly.It seems that the little emperor also supports him in doing these things!
The little emperor was always relatively quiet when he came to court, and it was rare for him to cry, and all the officials dispersed immediately.
Li Taifu, Zhao Youxiang, and He Zuoxiang suppressed their anger, and only got angry after the other officials left the hall.
Staring at Mr. Wang with sharp eyes like a knife, Li Taifu asked in a deep voice: "What is the situation of the empress dowager, the king's palm print is the clearest! Who is the king's palm seal to draw up this decree!"
Just now Taifu Li speculated that Manager Wang was responsible for the matter, but he calmed down, he thought it was not the case.If no one in the court supports Mr. Wang, how dare Mr. Wang do such a thing!So Li Taifu, like Zhao Youxiang, suspected He Zuoxiang.
He Zuoxiang felt that Taifu Li and Zhao Youxiang were staring at him with the eyes of a traitor, and was immediately unhappy, and asked them angrily: "What do you mean by this?"
Taifu Li did not discuss with him, and directly proposed in the court hall that the six people should take turns to enter the palace to raise the little emperor.Zhao You and others obviously knew about this in advance!Only He Zuoxiang and Liu Shangshu of the household department didn't know about it!This is deliberately putting him aside, without giving him any face!Did Li Taifu and Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of War secretly join Zhao Youxiang's camp?
Thinking of this, He Zuoxiang felt a sense of crisis and felt a lot of pressure.
Li Taifu and Zhao Youxiang were on guard against He Zuoxiang at first, and even suspected that this Yizhi was made by He Zuoxiang and Wang Zongguan!Now He Zuoxiang still has the face to question them.All of a sudden, several literati began to quote scriptures, use historical events to ridicule each other, and scold each other.
As a faction of Zuoxiang, seeing them scolding He Zuoxiang, Liu Shangshu of the household department naturally stepped forward to help He Zuoxiang to attack them together.
When Liu Shangshu from the Ministry of Households joined, Song Shangshu from the Ministry of Officials naturally couldn't just watch, and helped Zhao Youxiang scold him.
Gu Yang just howled twice just now, and he stopped howling after the other officials left.Hearing Li Taifu and others quarreling, Gu Yang found it interesting.
Manager Wang wanted to carry the little emperor back to the palace, but he found that the little emperor's ears moved, and his dark grape eyes rolled, obviously curious about what happened now.Director Wang didn't hold the little emperor and left, but continued to stay, and changed his posture specially so that the little emperor could watch Taifu Li and the others scold each other.
Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of War always felt that things were a little strange.When Taifu Li proposed to let go of the matter of taking turns to raise the little emperor in the palace, He Zuoxiang looked sour, obviously ignorant.Since He Zuoxiang didn't know in advance that the matter would be abandoned, how could he arrange this Yizhi in advance?
When thinking about something, Zhou Shangshu's eyes fell on Director Wang.Then found that the little emperor seemed very happy?
Following the line of sight of the little emperor, Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of War found that the little emperor was looking at Li Taifu, Zhao Youxiang, He Zuoxiang, Liu Shangshu of the household department, and Song Shangshu of the official department.Could it be that the little emperor is watching them quarrel?Think it's funny?
Gu Yang was watching the play, but didn't notice that Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of War was watching him.Manager Wang noticed it, and said lightly, "What's wrong with Zhou Shangshu looking at His Majesty like this?"
Li Taifu, He Zuoxiang, and Zhao Youxiang who were arguing were attracted by these words, and they turned their heads to look at Director Wang, only then did they notice that the little emperor was looking at them!
Staring at these clear and clean eyes, Li Taifu, He Zuoxiang, Zhao Youxiang, Song Shangshu of the official department, and Liu Shangshu of the household department suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.They quarreled every day, but they didn't think there was anything wrong with their behavior just now.But what happened just now was seen by a baby, and it always felt inappropriate.
Calculating the date, the little emperor is exactly ten months old today, and the baby at this time has already recognized a human being.As civil servants who want face and reputation, they are particularly concerned about their own image.But the appearance of their quarrel just now was seen by the little emperor...
Mrs. Li and the others began to think back to when they were torturing each other just now, whether they looked fierce or scary.What if the little emperor is scared and the little emperor dare not get close to them in the future?
The more they thought about it, the more uneasy they became, and they began to stare at Manager Wang.What happened to this eunuch surnamed Wang!Why not bring the little emperor back to the palace, so that the little emperor can witness their quarrel just now!
