It was night, the palace banquet was over, and all the officials returned to their homes.
Zhao Duan, who returned to the palace, had a terrible expression on his face, but he didn't say anything. He just called Cao Shuang over and gave some instructions.
Cao Shuang nodded in surprise and left.
And in the fourth prince's house.
"Yu Ru, thanks to you for holding me back this time, otherwise we would have been hated by our father. Now that guy, Lao Wu, is probably still very proud, thinking that he has done something extraordinary! "
Zhao Ji's words were full of schadenfreude, and at the same time he was a little lucky. Fortunately, he was held back by his wife.
Meng Yuru rolled her eyes at him and then said:
"What's the difference between your behavior and forcing him to have a baby? My father always accepts the soft and not the tough. You're forcing him to have a baby like this during the Chinese New Year. He will be a ghost if he can bear it. Just watch. Lao Wu will definitely do it this time. Finished.
Even though he has a high reputation among civil servants, believe it or not, when his father wanted to take advantage of him, no one would help him. "
Zhao Ji was immediately surprised when he heard this: "No way?"
Meng Yuru sneered and said:
"Why not? Those literati just used Lao Wu as a shield. He said it first, and they just echoed it. The main responsibility lies with him. If the father wants to deal with the ministers, he must be dealt with first. He is also the father's Son, the father naturally cannot deal with him too harshly, and naturally he cannot deal with the ministers too harshly.
But Lao Wu's behavior gave the officials the opportunity to force the palace. Naturally, the father would not be happy. If he could not deal with the ministers, he would definitely give Lao Wu a hard time. After all, it can be seen from this time that Lao Wu is not very good at thinking and is always being harassed. Officials were acting as shields. It was enough to do something like this once. How could the father let him do it again?
With my father's character, he will definitely solve this matter once and for all. According to the past, the Prime Minister will definitely not let Lao Wu get into trouble like this, but Lao Wu did, and the Prime Minister didn't say anything. I doubt that old guy Zhang He I also gave up on the idiot Lao Wu, otherwise the incident like today wouldn't have happened.
Lao Wu could be said to have driven himself to a dead end with his own hands.
If I hadn't pulled you, you would have stepped in with me. "
Speaking of this, Meng Yuru looked at Zhao Ji as if she were an idiot. Zhao Ji felt uncomfortable looking at her and whispered in a low voice: "Didn't I stand up?"
"What did you say?"
Meng Yuru asked without hearing what he was saying. Zhao Ji hurriedly said with a flattering smile: "I am saying that you must be smart, Yuru. I am lucky to have you!"
Meng Yuru snorted coldly and said: "I don't know how much virtue you accumulated in your previous life to be able to marry me. Without my brain, you would have been sold to others and paid for it!"
After saying that, Meng Yuru sighed helplessly, but in her heart she was thinking about what evil she had done in her previous life to encounter such a brainless thing.
It’s hard to carry!
…
Prime Minister's Office.
"Grandpa, did you do it on purpose today?"
As soon as she returned to the house, Zhang Yuyan couldn't hold it in any longer and asked doubtfully.
Zhang He didn't hide anything, he nodded and admitted.
"Yes, I did it on purpose."
"But aren't you hurting my cousin by doing this? Once today's incident comes out, I'm afraid my cousin will really have no chance of getting a position." Zhang Yuyan was very puzzled.
Zhang He snorted angrily:
"He never had a chance.
I finally figured it out today. Your cousin is just like his mother. He is only smart but has no brains!
Did he think he was the only one who noticed that the prince was gone?
Why don't others come forward and talk about this?
The fact that the Holy One himself didn't say anything already speaks volumes, that is, the Holy One knew about this matter.
As a prince, if you go against His Majesty, aren't you looking for death?
As for the officials, especially the Yushi Yanguan, no one mentioned it, so forget it, but he just charged up stupidly. As a Yushi, this matter is his duty, so he can only do it forcefully. They followed up with ulterior motives, and those with ulterior motives also immediately took the opportunity to ask for names to buy her, and finally resulted in forcing the uterus.
It can be said that what happened today was entirely caused by that kid.
He is so stupid and has such a close relationship with our family. If he is allowed to continue to develop, won't we be implicated when he is finally defeated and liquidated? It is better to get rid of him as soon as possible before it reaches the point of no return. Let him get out on his own, it's better for everyone.
To be honest, with his brain, he is really not suitable to be an emperor. Being a vassal king is not bad either. "
"What will happen to my cousin?" Zhang Yuyan asked curiously.
Zhang He thought for a while and replied:
"With my current habit, I like to hit people in all directions.
He definitely doesn't want this incident to happen again. I'm afraid the public will first spread some bad news about your cousin. Once public opinion is stirred up, he will directly follow the public sentiment and send him away.
Or if he stays in the capital, he will be crowned king and completely cut off his ambition to compete for the heir apparent. "
"This may be a good thing for my cousin." Zhang Yuyan said with emotion.
Zhang He also nodded and said:
“Blessings are where disasters depend, and misfortunes are where blessings depend.
It was indeed a good ending for him.
It's just that on the Fourth Prince's side, with the Ding family's tiger-hunting army gone, I thought the Fourth Prince would be eliminated soon, leaving the Prince's family alone. But judging from the Fourth Prince's performance today, he is not a single person at all. Fool, and His Majesty didn't do anything to him. It seems that he kept him here on purpose. I don't know why? "
Zhang Yuyan thought for a while and then suddenly said: "If the fourth prince also falls, wouldn't there be only the prince and your majesty left in the court?"
Zhang He's eyes suddenly lit up and he praised with a smile:
"Our Yan'er is right. I guess that's what your Majesty has in mind. Your Majesty is the one sitting in the same position now, so there is nothing wrong with this."
Zhang He naturally understood that the meaning of his granddaughter's words could not mean that there were really only two people left in the court, the prince and the emperor, but that the number of people who could sit in each position in the court would change from the original four to two.
People's hearts are complicated. Although the prince has been chosen, this does not mean that the emperor can allow the prince to compete with him for the position now.
So the current actions are normal.
The night is getting deeper and deeper, and January has passed quickly. As the capital of the Song Dynasty, Bianjing is very lively even on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and it will not become deserted like other places.
As expected, the news of the palace banquet spread to the people yesterday. Everyone had two attitudes towards this matter. One was that the prince did something inappropriate, and the other was that since it was arranged by your majesty, the prince There is nothing you can do but follow orders.
Although the news is very exciting, the prince has run away.
But the guys just treated it as something to talk about after dinner, and didn't take it to heart.
To put it bluntly, how much does the affairs of these people above have anything to do with ordinary people like them?
If you have this time, it would be more comfortable to play two games of chess.
No one took this matter to heart, but another message spread among the people at an extremely fast speed.
The reason why the fifth prince has not married for many years is actually because he often secretly goes to various brothels.
There are countless courtesans in the capital who have had physical intimacy with him, and there are even more countless courtesans who broke down in tears on their wedding day.
Sexy news! He is still a prince, this is the big monster, the big melon that everyone is interested in!
This news quickly spread throughout Bianjing City in a very short time.
