Chapter 386 Chapter 385(1/2)

Chapter 386 385 Select General Yu Dayou

"Your Majesty asked the state prefecture to build a new prince's mansion?"

When Wei Guangde arrived at the place, without greetings, Gao Gong told Wei Guangde what he had just received.

There are only three people in the private room today, Gao Gong, Li Fang and Wei Guangde. Li Fang naturally represents King Yu. What Wei Guangde and Gao Gong said will be passed on to King Yu.

"What do you think of Gao Da?"

Wei Guangde stroked his chin and asked.

He did not ask the source of the news. He thought he would not make any mistakes as if he had chosen a fiefdom to build a new royal palace. After all, this was discussed by the cabinet and the six ministries, and the news could not be blocked.

"I don't know, only after the cabinet elects the place, will His Majesty issue an order to know."

Hearing Gao Gong's words, Wei Guangde nodded.

To determine the fiefdom, although the court paid the money for the Jian Palace, there will be officials from the princes who sent the princes to participate. At that time, Emperor Jiajing will have to explain clearly whether it was King Yu or King Jing who came out of the capital to be the vassal.

"Actually, don't worry."

Wei Guangde suddenly laughed and said, "Whether it is in accordance with the court system or the people's hearts, it is all about the prince, and Your Majesty will not know.

Guo Xiyan's blood was not in vain."

"Um?"

"ah?"

A low and sharp sound of surprise sounded. Neither Gao Gong nor Li Fang expected Wei Guangde to mention Guo Xiyan at this time.

At the beginning of the year, Guo Xiyan was asked by Emperor Jiajing to establish the crown prince because she wrote a letter to the emperor, but she was finally scratched. She did not even go through the trial of the three departments. The Jinyiwei directly arrested people, tried the case, and killed people.

King Yu was uneasy, and in fact, Guo Xiyan was killed was also one of the important reasons.

You know, Guo Xiyan publicly supported King Yu's succession to Dabao and asked King Jing to leave the capital to become a vassal.

Although he did not communicate with Prince Yu's Mansion in advance, Prince Yu's Mansion was very passive at that time.

But such a person was finally killed by the emperor. From that moment on, King Yu realized that he might really be away from that position.

In the past six months, although he has not changed much from usual on the surface, he has actually surrendered in his heart. He just looked at Gao Gong and others' earnest gazes, and couldn't bear to express his true thoughts.

But today, after he received the news of the newly built palace from the palace, King Yu locked himself in his study.

He had realized that what was coming was coming eventually, and he did not dare to see Gao Gong and others' disappointed expressions after hearing the last news.

But despite this, King Yu also knew that he could not do nothing, which would reveal his mood at this time, so he sent Li Fang to find Gao Gong and Wei Guangde.

Now, King Yu unknowingly regarded Wei Guangde as the second think tank in the royal palace besides Gao Gong.

"Guo Xiyan was only given a vassal because she wanted King Jing to leave the capital."

Li Fang said halfway, and suddenly felt something was unlucky. She immediately shut up and just looked at Wei Guangde with her eyes.

Although King Yu tried his best not to show it, as someone around him, his every move was in Li Fang's eyes, and the inevitable exposed thing had long been discovered.

However, Li Fang didn't say anything, and didn't even mention Gao Gong.

But Wei Guangde's words just now made him suddenly feel that something was wrong. Judging from what Wei Guangde said, it seemed that Guo Xiyan's death was actually good to King Yu.

"Whether Guo Xiyan is trying to do something for the sake of the camp or to be devoted to the public, the memorial he made was really problematic."

Wei Guangde paused a little when he said this, turned his head and thought for a while before continuing: "If that memorial is really fine, Your Majesty will not let the Jinyiwei kill him directly, but will throw the person to the Ministry of Justice. After all, the Sixth Department has been charged with the crime.

But His Majesty did not ask him to be tried, but executed directly, which shows that His Majesty did not want Guo Xiyan's case to continue to ferment, and directly blocked other people's mouths with his blood."

Hearing this, Gao Gong and Li Fang just nodded subconsciously.

Indeed, after Guo Xiyan wrote a letter, there were a lot of discussions in the court, but after Guo Xiyan was executed, the discussions came to an abrupt end.

"If Guo Xiyan does not die, there will be disputes in the court, and they will be divided into two factions to support His Highness Yu and King Jing respectively. If the trouble ends, it is not impossible for Xiao Yun to cause trouble, even if he can control the court through Lu Bing.

However, it is easy to avoid hidden arrows and it is hard to prevent them. No one knows whether some people will take risks to do something for the sake of that position."

Wei Guangde suddenly stood up suddenly and walked back and forth in the private room for two more times. "Your Majesty should want to protect Prince Yu and avoid being assassinated, so he quickly executed Guo Xiyan to prevent the situation from escalating."

While speaking, Wei Guangde had already stood still, staring at Li Fang with his eyes and continued, "Not what most people think, Your Majesty is in love with King Jing."

"Execution of Guo Xiyan can indeed prevent the court from being divided, but why is it said to protect King Yu?"

Gao Gong frowned and said.

"In the end, he will not be able to escape from the crime if he really intends to let King Jing take the throne."

Wei Guangde replied.

"Build momentum?"

Gao Gong said in surprise, he really didn't expect this. After all, Guo Xiyan was not familiar with him, and he didn't even say a word to Prince Yu's mansion when he submitted a memorial.

After learning about Guo Xiyan's book, he also inquired about his situation at that time, so he naturally looked down on this person very much.

Guo Xiyan's situation at that time was not arguing for King Yu. It can be seen from the memorial that supporting King Yu to the throne was just the outer skin he put on himself. His real purpose was to gain the position and attack Yan Song.

"If King Jing really wants to take the throne, I will hand over the person to the Ministry of Justice and try it slowly. The final judgment has long been destined, and the court officials will also be affected during the entire trial.

Just now, the civil and military officials in the court are all over the country, and how many people really support King Jing, maybe only Ge Lao Yan’s side will make this choice.”

Wei Guangde said frankly.

In fact, his words were also the actual situation of the way in the court.

Why Gao Gong feels restless is simply because according to the ancestral system, King Yu is the only candidate to inherit Dabao, and the people's will.

In his opinion, if Emperor Jiajing really wanted to pass the throne to King Jing, at least he would take the lead in admonishment and face the ancestral system on his head. Could it be that Emperor Jiajing really wanted to have another "big ceremony" dispute in the last few years of his emperor's career?

The "big ritual discussion" at that time was actually not what Yang Tinghe claimed. In essence, it was a struggle to use prime minister's power to overwhelm the imperial power and use their power to threaten the young Emperor Jiajing.

No matter how they quote the classics, thousands of years of ethics and morality cannot support them. If the emperor refuses to recognize his biological parents, that is no different from a beast.

He was ignorant at that time, unlike Yang Tinghe, who talked about some fallacies, Gao Gong promoted the ancestral system and naturally occupied the commanding heights of morality. In such an atmosphere, the civil service group would not be as fast as the "big ritual discussion".

Even Yan Song didn't dare to support him publicly on this occasion.

Although he had made up this idea a long time ago, Gao Gong was still nervous and worried when the truth came to an end.

People cherish their lives, so do they, and they still have great ambitions.

At this moment, he heard Wei Guangde say that Emperor Jiajing quickly executed Guo Xiyan to protect King Yu. Regardless of whether it is true or not, he could calm down, at least temporarily.

Only Li Fang, but at this time, frowned, understanding Wei Guangde's meaning.

"Mr. Gao has been appointed by His Majesty to participate in the imperial court. Do you still understand?"

Finally, Wei Guangde said to them again.

In fact, Wei Guangde also understood that Gao Gong might be able to figure out what he said after tonight.

Gao Gong is not a stupid person. His current nervousness is actually more because he is in the game and is confused about his concern, and suddenly he is confused.

At the same time, in a gorgeous yard in the inner city of Beijing, Huang Guangsheng, the governor of Huguichuan, who had just said goodbye to Wei Guangde, came here to meet his friend Ma Sen, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice.

"Mingju, Wei Guangde asked you for help. I suggest you accept it. No matter what, Zhifu is a fellow villager in Fujian. He is one of the few generals who can lead troops alone in wars. If you can, please help."

After listening to Huang Guangsheng's story, Masen said to him after thinking for a moment.

"I have heard you mention about Shifu before. It is a matter of help, but it is only."

However, Huang Guangsheng said a little hesitantly, but did not continue.

Ma Sen knew Huang Guangsheng’s concerns, so naturally the cabinet chief Yan Song was blocking him.

Although he seemed to be the governor of the three provinces and did not seem to be afraid of the chief minister, although he was in charge of the military and political affairs of the three provinces, whether it was a local official or a military general, he would eventually listen to the words of the capital.

It is indeed good to say this to the county magistrate, but if he secretly does something bad at the instructor of the cabinet, it will be enough for him to deal with it.

"I probably don't know one thing yet."

At this time, Masen suddenly spoke.

"What's the matter?"

Huang Guangsheng asked curiously.

"I only heard this afternoon. Your Majesty asked the Cabinet to work with the Ministry of Rites to choose a fiefdom to build a new prince's mansion."

"What?"

Masen told Huang Guangsheng what he had just heard, and Huang Guangsheng asked a little unbelievably.

The meaning of the news is very clear when choosing a fiefdom and building a new royal palace, that is, a prince is going to leave the capital and then become a vassal.

Who will leave Beijing?

King Yu?

King Jing?

It can be said that the court officials have been thinking about the Crown Prince's dispute for many years, and the answer will be made public soon.

"This is a good thing. It should be that King Jing left Beijing and went to the vassal state."

Although Huang Guangsheng was an official in Sichuan, he had heard of the situation in the capital.
