"What Duke Wei Guo said is very reasonable." Yang Guorui, the guarding eunuch, said, "Our family asked people to bring this blood edict to the court. We also wanted everyone to identify whether it was written by the Supreme Emperor. If this blood edict was written by the Supreme Emperor, If someone pretends to be someone, our family will punish Jin Yiwei."
As he said that, he looked at Jin Yiwei Xu Tong who was kneeling in the court hall.
Then he continued: "But if this blood edict is true, but someone unscrupulously says that the blood edict is fake, then our family will not let him go lightly."
Obedient, he believed that the ministers in the court understood what he meant.
After hearing the words of the guarding eunuch Yang Guorui, Wei Guogong's face became very ugly.
The few words he said before were completely useless under the attack from the other party.
"This official can prove that the handwriting on the blood edict was indeed written by the Supreme Emperor." Shi Kefa said.
Gao Hongtu said from the side: "I believe that Jin Yiwei's rigor will not make a mistake in this matter."
As the two men admitted the authenticity of the blood edict, many officials in the court came forward to support that the blood edict was written by the Supreme Emperor, or that they supported the chief minister of the cabinet becoming an auxiliary minister.
Almost all the officials who expressed support in the court were from civil service, and the vast majority were from the Donglin Party.
Among the lords and generals in the court, no one spoke.
Wei Guogong was the head of the Nanjing lords, and almost all officials in the lord line were headed by Wei Guogong.
Although Wei Guogong did not explicitly state whether the blood edict was true or false, many people understood his unwillingness for the chief minister of the cabinet to become an auxiliary minister.
Naturally, the noble officials in the court would not acknowledge the blood edict of the Supreme Emperor like Shi Kefa and others did.
Except for a few people such as Shi Kefa, in fact, in the eyes of many people, it is not important whether the blood edict was really written by the Supreme Emperor. What is important is whether Qian Qianyi, the chief minister of the cabinet, should become the assistant minister.
"Nonsense, do you people just say that it is the blood edict of the Supreme Emperor, then it must be it?" Duke Cheng Guo scolded loudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the guarding eunuch Yang Guorui said at the right time: "What Duke Cheng Guorui said is wrong. So many people think that the blood edict is true. We think that something that so many courtiers agree with cannot be false."
"I think you are the one behind this, otherwise why would a blood edict suddenly appear?" Cheng Guogong glared fiercely at the guarding eunuch Yang Guorui.
He was extremely dissatisfied with this dead eunuch.
"Mr. Cheng Guo, do you have a problem with our family? Or do you have a problem with the Supreme Emperor!" As he said this, the guarding eunuch Yang Guorui's eyes turned sinister.
Duke Cheng Guo raised his finger and pointed at the nose of the guarding eunuch Yang Guorui, and scolded: "Did I make a mistake? I got a blood edict from an unknown source and said it was the handwriting of the Supreme Emperor. It's not because you are up to something. "
"Is there any evidence for what Duke Cheng Guo said?" Yang Guorui, the guarding eunuch, said in a cold voice.
Cheng Guogong wrinkled his nose and snorted coldly, saying: "What kind of evidence is needed? Anyone with a discerning eye can see it. Do you think you won't know if others don't admit it?"
Snapped!
The guard eunuch Yang Guorui raised his hand and slapped the armrest of the table and chair, and shouted angrily: "You are here to slander our family without evidence. Do you really think that our family is easy to bully!"
With that said, he waved and summoned several Jin Yiwei.
Duke Cheng Guo's expression changed when he saw Jin Yiwei appearing.
Only then did he remember that the palace was guarded by eunuch Yang Guorui.
If he goes against the guarding eunuch Yang Guorui in the palace, he, the duke, will definitely suffer the loss.
But he wanted him to submit to a eunuch, but he couldn't lose his dignity.
Just when he didn't know what to do, Wei Guogong suddenly said: "You two are old enough to be laughed at by others. Okay, Cheng Guogong, please sit down. Don't get me wrong, Yang Eunuch. Cheng Guogong also wants to The imperial court is afraid that the imperial court will be deceived, and it is not aimed at you, Eunuch Yang."
Hearing this, the guarding eunuch Yang Guorui snorted and waved his hand at the royal guards.
Several Jin Yiwei retreated to their previous positions.
"What does Wei Guogong think about the blood edict?" Yang Guorui, the guarding eunuch, asked Wei Guogong directly.
Among the three auxiliary Dukes, Duke Wei is the leader.
Wei Guogong hesitated for a moment, knowing that it was impossible not to give the other party an answer, so he said: "Since so many courtiers in the court believe that this blood edict is the handwriting of the Supreme Emperor, I think it is correct, so let's do it according to the Supreme Emperor's wishes!"
Facing Wei Guogong who had the upper hand in the court, he had to take a step back.
"Our family knows that Wei Guogong is deeply aware of righteousness, so let's make this decision! From today on, Mr. Qian Ge will also be the auxiliary minister of the DPRK. Come, please move a chair next to our house." The guarding eunuch Yang Guorui said on his face He showed a dark smile.
By promoting Qian Qianyi to a higher position, he has achieved his goal.
Qian Qianyi, who was standing below, heard that he had become the auxiliary minister, and his face showed excitement.
Soon, a chair that was exactly the same as the other auxiliary ministers was moved over and placed side by side with the chairs of the other auxiliary ministers.
"Mr. Qian Ge, don't be stunned, come up quickly!" Yang Guorui, the guarding eunuch, greeted Qian Qianyi.
Qian Qianyi bowed his hands to the surrounding courtiers, then walked to the seat next to the guarding eunuch Yang Guorui with an excited look, and sat down slowly.
After sitting down, he gently touched the armrest of the seat with his hand, as if he was touching something special.
Duke Cheng Guo looked at Qian Qianyi, a poor man who suddenly became rich, and let out a cold snort of dissatisfaction.
"It's a good thing that one more auxiliary minister has been added. In the future, with Mr. Qiange sharing the affairs of the court, we can be more relaxed." Wei Guogong said with a smile.
Qian Qianyi hurriedly stood up from his seat, raised his hands to Duke Wei, and said, "Don't worry, Duke Wei, I will lead the cabinet to safeguard the Ming Dynasty for the sake of the Supreme Emperor and Your Majesty."
"With Mr. Qian Ge's promise, I can rest assured." Wei Guogong said with a smile, but his eyes were full of coldness.
He also knew in his heart that with Qian Qianyi, the chief minister of the cabinet, becoming the auxiliary minister, it would be difficult to control the cabinet in the future.
Compared with the joy shown on the faces of many civil servants, Wu Xun's face in the court was not very good-looking.
In the past, when he was still in Beidu, the cabinet had suppressed Wu Xun, and it was basically impossible for Wu Xun to get ahead. Now, with great difficulty, several assistant ministers of Wu Xun were appointed. But not long after, the chief minister of the cabinet also He became the auxiliary minister and once again put pressure on the heads of all the martial arts heroes.
At this time, the guarding eunuch Yang Guorui said: "Mr. Qian Ge, now he is also the assistant minister. Let me tell you what you are going to do next?"
