MTL - First Prince of Ming Dynasty-Chapter 667 undercurrent

  Chapter 667 Undercurrent

  If he can't even keep Li Cunyi, then what will the people below think, and what will the nobles of Huaixi think?

  Li Cunyi is not only Li Xiang's younger brother, but also his in-laws. This relationship is undoubtedly a family of close relatives. In this era that pays attention to the concealment of relatives, can the dignified prime minister just sit on the sidelines?

  A person who doesn't even protect his close relatives, if something happens, will he still bother to protect the people below? They are all officials of Ming Dynasty, why did they serve under the prime minister's command?

  Hu Weiyong sighed: "You will go to Li's mansion in person in a while, and you must make it clear and let him rest assured that tomorrow, no matter what, I will do my best."

  Chen Liang smiled wryly and said: "Master Xiang, what's the use of going to Li's Mansion at this time, why don't you go to Yan's Mansion, after all, it's not yet tomorrow morning, maybe there is still room for maneuver."

  Hu Weiyong glanced at the direction of Miyagi and shook his head: "They are also ready to attack. Chen Youzong is such a steady person, the sudden attack must be the intention of the palace."

  Of course, Chen Liang was not unaware of this point. Even they had long expected that His Highness might hit them in anger, and they were even prepared for their confidantes to be demoted.

   Fighting against the king is no less than fighting against the sky. There is no reason to retreat from the whole body. It is just that you have to do it and try your best to gain a chance.

  But I didn't expect His Highness to be so angry that he wanted to attack Li Cunyi, even the Holy Majesty took good care of him, not to mention that Li Liangdi in the Eastern Palace was also extremely favored, second only to the Crown Princess, and Li Qi would also marry His Highness the Princess.

   It is said that Li Cunyi is not only Hu Weiyong's close relative, but also related to His Royal Highness, otherwise they would not be so defenseless, really caught off guard.

  Hu Weiyong had a headache, and the slight pride that had arisen today was instantly wiped out by His Royal Highness, and he regretted arranging this, and it set him on fire.

   Not long after, Tu Jie, Chen Ning and others also arrived. There were quite a few people gathered in the Yan Mansion, and they didn't deliberately conceal the news, so they all knew about it.

  Of course, it is not possible for everyone to know so quickly, but Tu Jie and others deliberately paid attention to that side, and also recruited some officials who could not get along with the direct line of the Eastern Palace and wanted to sit on the wall.

  Tu Jie came in to salute, and said: "Please brother Cun come over, it's best to resign tomorrow morning before they get into trouble."

   "This is a way. Being impeached and demoted is two different things from voluntarily withdrawing. Others can't find any reason. The Prime Minister and the minister think it is feasible."

  Hu Weiyong thought for a moment and vetoed it: "This is His Highness getting angry. If you avoid the seriousness, you will not let His Highness vent your anger. The consequences will only be more serious."

  Chen Ning said: "But Li Cunyi's status is special, and I can understand the difficulties of the prime minister when I know it, but the people below are not necessarily. It will be difficult to reunite when people's hearts are scattered."

  Everyone was silent for a while, they were not involved in the matter of the Beijing camp, but the crown prince beat them again from another place, it can only be said that he really deserves to be His Royal Highness the crown prince of this dynasty.

   "The Beijing camp can no longer be moved in the future, the gain outweighs the loss!"

  Hu Weiyong asked Tu Jie: "How big is the flaw in Taipu Temple? Can you fill in the hole tonight, and can you single out the culprit?"

Tu Jie has been in charge of this kind of thing all the time, after thinking for a while, he said: "The problem is actually not that big, it's nothing more than greedy for more oil and water, but the time is a bit tight. If Chen Youzong and the others don't set up obstacles, they can make up for three or four by tomorrow morning. become."

"As for the crime, it is difficult to deal with. There are only two young ministers of Taipusi who have enough status. One was recommended by Chen Youzong, which is why they were able to find Li Cunyi so quickly. The other is ours, but That man is You Cheng's cousin..."

  Chen Liang answered immediately: "Brother Chen, I will let the Prime Minister drive me, no matter what."

   Absolutely, how is this possible? It is not easy for the real power of the Taipusi Shaoqing to go up, not to mention that Li Cunyi will not die no matter what, the prince will take care of Li Xiangye and Li Liangdi's face even if he doesn't look at his face.

But other people dare to take the blame, but it is difficult to save their lives. If you lose your official position, you can get compensation from others, but if you lose your life, what is the use of any compensation? There is no such right-hand man as Chen Liang.

  Hu Weiyong told Tu Jie: "You go for a walk immediately, make up as much as you can, and don't be stingy with money."

  The imperial court was ruthless in cracking down on corruption, but how could the centuries-old malpractices of the Song and Yuan Dynasties be solved in just a few years?

  The filial piety received every year is a huge amount. Although it costs a lot to maintain and win people's hearts, there is still a surplus in the end. It is easy to make up for the deficit of a Taipu Temple.

   It’s just that there is only one night, and the accounts that make up for the deficit will not match, and it’s just a remedy, just to plead for mercy tomorrow.

   Tu Jie took the order to leave, Hu Weiyong comforted Chen Liang again, and promised to do his best to support his younger brother to be promoted to the post of Minister of the Taipusi. Chen Liang is naturally grateful.

  Then Chen Liang went to Li Cunyi's residence. No matter what Li Cunyi's status was special, he couldn't let him speak out with resentment tomorrow.

Hu Weiyong immediately wrote a letter to his mentor with his own hand, pleading guilty to him sincerely. Although Li Shanchang had no real power, when he left, he was granted the title of Prince and Taifu and gave gifts to those who would be worthy of the Taimiao in a hundred years. As long as he is not dead, Political influence will not dissipate.

  ...

   After returning to the palace, Liu Jin inquired and learned that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had returned to the East Palace, so he turned around and walked from the Zuoshun Gate next to the Inner Wulong Bridge to the Wenhua Palace.

  Walking into the hall, I saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was crouching over the desk to review the memorial. Liu Jin stepped forward more than ten steps to bow down and salute. He only heard a sound, but Liu Jin did not move.

   "The servant girl said something she shouldn't have said in front of the governor-general, please be punished by His Highness!"

  Zhu Biao didn't pay attention to it, and there was a clear and loud slap from below, about five or six times, before Zhu Biao slowly looked up and said, "That's all."

Liu Jin's actions were within his expectations, and Chen Youzong's reaction was also the same. He originally wanted to give Hu Weiyong a quiet time to develop, but now it seems that it is better to make a fuss in the court, otherwise there will always be time to go. The idea of ​​whether to move or not.

  The slap marks on Liu Jin's face were clearly visible, but he didn't seem to feel the slightest bit, so he got up naturally and walked to his prince to grind ink.

   "After the court tomorrow, you can go to the Yan Mansion to visit on behalf of the palace. By the way, his precious ginseng should be used up. You can take two more from the inner bag and send them."

   "No."

   "What is Chen Yunshu's current position?"

   "The servant remembers that he should be a member of the official department."

"kindness."

  Zhu Biao has seen more than ten memorials, all of which were impeached by the generals of the Beijing camp to impeach Jiang Yu for his actions today.

Killing Jiang Yu is of course not enough, this person is quite easy to use, and most people know about this matter, saying that severe punishment is just to save face, and the people who are close to the military captain's mansion will not be able to turn at any time to their discretion.

   But an explanation is still required. Jiang Yu can’t stay in the capital. It just so happens that Zhu Biao was planning to send someone to Korea.

  Zhu Di is still young after all, and Li Chenggui and Naha are not really vegetarians. If it is common sense, they would not go crazy enough to murder a Ming prince, but there is no shortage of smart people suddenly doing stupid things in this world.

It's not that Zhu Biao lacks a younger brother, but his father really can't let go of a son. If it dies, it's fine. God's will is so good, but he has already raised him to such a big age. It's not easy for Lao Zhu to taste it. The grief of losing a child in middle age.
