At the East Nuan Pavilion of Wuying Hall.

At the time of Haishi, the palace lanterns in Nuange were brilliant.

Emperor Chongming lowered his eyes and looked at the thick pile of memorials on the cases, his expression becoming increasingly dissatisfied.

There were various exquisite pastries placed on the tables nearby. Emperor Chongming picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and tasted it, then picked up a teacup and sipped it.

At this moment, a chamberlain stepped forward cautiously and said: "Long live my Lord, Prince Zhongshun is here."

Emperor Chongming frowned when he heard this, and Gao Xian on the side hurriedly stepped forward and scolded: "You bitch, my master has already given instructions. If you are loyal and obedient to the prince's request, you don't have to report it. Why don't you go and invite the prince to come in."

"Yes, yes... I'm confused, I'll go right now." After saying that, the servant went down to invite someone in despair.

Emperor Chongming didn't even raise his eyes, obviously he didn't care about such a trivial matter.

Shaoqing, King Zhongshun came in, and immediately saluted: "My brother pays homage to the emperor."

Emperor Chongming looked happy and said hurriedly: "Eighth brother, this is not the main hall, so there is no need to be more polite."

King Zhongshun said seriously: "The emperor's brother is the emperor, and the minister's brother is a minister. The etiquette cannot be abolished."

After hearing this, Emperor Chongming shook his head and motioned to King Zhongshun to sit down. Then Gao Xian hurriedly brought a cup of tea up. As soon as King Zhongshun picked up the tea cup and took a sip, Emperor Chongming motioned to the maid to go down, and then pointed to the tables.

The memorial, he said calmly: "Eighth brother, please take a look."

King Zhongshun looked puzzled and asked: "Brother, what is this?"

Emperor Chongming snorted coldly: "A plea for Jia's family."

King Zhongshun looked at the memorials that were full of several cases, his expression was as usual, and then he picked a few and read them. Most of them had similar meanings, and they were nothing more than Jia Rong's fault. I hope your majesty will understand clearly.

"Most of the dignitaries in the capital are headed by the Duke of the State. It is normal for hundreds of officials to intercede for mercy."

Emperor Chongming looked at King Zhongshun with a half-smile, and scolded him with a smile: "Are you talking to me too?"

King Zhongshun smiled bitterly and said sternly: "Brother Huang is very aware of the situation. This time all the officials beg for mercy is just expected."

At this time, Emperor Chongming looked indifferent and responded: "Yes, it's just expected."

Seeing Emperor Chongming's indifferent tone, King Zhongshun stopped talking about the topic and hurriedly said: "Brother, the emperor really caught Jia Yun's attention. He refuses to seize the title."

Emperor Chongming nodded and said with a smile: "That boy seems to be reckless, but he sees clearly and refuses to take the title, which is reasonable. However, do you have any words for that boy?"

Emperor Chongming had previously summoned King Zhongshun and chatted with King Zhongshun about Jia Yun. Emperor Chongming judged that Jia Yun was unwilling to seize the title, so he sent King Zhongshun to Jia Yun's mansion to mention Jia Yun.

When King Zhongshun heard the words, he chuckled lightly at first, and then said helplessly: "Brother, my brother was late for a while, and the boy was summoned by the Jia family. He sternly refused to attack the prince in the hall, and Jia Shi was so angry that he fainted."

Emperor Chongming frowned when he heard this and said dissatisfied: "This boy is still so reckless in doing things. Is there any serious problem for Jia Shi?"

If something happened to the Jia Shi family, no matter how much Emperor Chongming valued Jia Yun, he would still have to punish Jia Yun, which would hinder his plans.

King Zhongshun knew this and said hurriedly: "Brother, don't worry, Jia Shi is just depressed for a moment, and she will be fine after a while."

Hearing that Jia Shi was fine, Emperor Chongming didn't want to pay attention to it, and then Emperor Chongming said: "This boy is a bit reckless in his actions, but he is still a little clever. I think this boy's behavior is to express his position to the Jia family.

"

King Zhongshun chuckled lightly and replied: "The position has been made clear. This boy was kicked out of the Jia Mansion directly. I'm afraid the people in the Jia Mansion will frown."

Emperor Chongming looked calm, as if he was not worried about the attitude of the Jia family members, and said: "That boy is a smart man. Since you have given him a heads up, he knows what to do."

King Zhongshun nodded lightly, obviously agreeing with Emperor Chongming's words. Jia Yun's ability to see the current events clearly proved that Jia Yun was not a fool.

There were heroes everywhere in the capital, and many of them saw the current events clearly, but they were in the middle of the situation and could not easily withdraw. However, Jia Yun was not blinded by the immediate interests and decided to stay away. With this, Emperor Chongming and King Zhongshun were able to

Give Jia Yun a high look.

After a pause, King Zhongshun pursed his lips and asked, "Brother Emperor, are you going to make some appropriate plans for the next step?"

Emperor Chongming pondered for a moment and said: "This matter is of great importance. Let's observe it first before saying anything else."

King Zhongshun was startled when he heard this, and then said cautiously: "Brother Huang is worried about Jia Yun."

Emperor Chongming raised his eyes and glanced at King Zhongshun. If someone else was so bold, Emperor Chongming would definitely be suspicious of King Zhongshun. Emperor Chongming did not doubt him, not because of trust, but because there was no interest between King Zhongshun and Jia Yun.

, presumably King Zhongshun and Jia Yun went to Yangzhou together on errands. Jia Yun won the favor of King Zhongshun. Just like Emperor Chongming, he admired Jia Yun's occasional wisdom. At the same time, Jia Yun was less artificial than others.

, even facing him, the emperor, is normal, which is quite rare for the intrigues of the royal family, or to put it bluntly, Jia Yun is more pleasant.

After thinking for a moment, Emperor Chongming said bluntly: "I don't doubt Jia Yun's loyalty at this moment, but if he is the queen of the throne and in his position, there is no guarantee that he will not have any objections."

Jia Yun was originally alone and had no qualms about being loyal to the king. However, if he succeeded in seizing the title and became the master of the Duke's Mansion, the decision Jia Yun made at that time would not only concern himself, but also represent the entire clan.

People who live in the country will inevitably have to consider their family, which is also something that every family in Beijing is worried about.

Who doesn’t know the dangers of forming cliques for personal gain? But if you want to enjoy power and wealth forever, how can you do it alone?

King Zhongshun was silent when he heard this. After all, this was an ironclad fact. In ancient times, many famous generals and good ministers fell into power.

After pondering for a moment, King Zhongshun respectfully said: "My brother understands..."

.............

Jia Yun's mansion.

Qingwen was making the mattress, while Jia Yun was frowning.

When I came back from Jia Mansion, I was worried. After returning home, I saw King Zhongshun again.

King Zhongshun said that he wanted him to inherit the title so that he could do errands for the emperor, which really shocked Jia Yun.

From King Zhongshun's mouth, Jia Yun also knew the whole story. No wonder Jia Mu wanted Jia Yun to inherit the title. I bet this was the emperor's intention. Although the emperor never said it clearly, it seemed that Jia Mu had caught the loophole in Emperor Chongming's words.

But this matter always reveals an unspeakable meaning, and it seems that Emperor Chongming did it intentionally.

King Zhongshun came here to remind Jia Yun, and Jia Yun understood. Not only that, but all the seemingly unreasonable things in the past could also be explained clearly.

If you think about it carefully, Jia Yun, a little Qian, will always be summoned by the emperor?

Because it is after Ningguo Gongfu? This reason is barely justified, but there is a loophole in it. If the emperor showed favor to the Jia family, why did he not show favor to the serious masters of the Jia family, but instead summoned concubines like Jia Yun?

After His Majesty's meeting, Jia Yun fell into the eyes of the emperor, and then he was promoted to a high position. That's why Jia Yun had the fortune he has today. Otherwise, Jia Yun would still be fighting at the border...

According to Emperor Chongming's arrangement, Jia Yun knew that he was involved in a political struggle. This was a power struggle between Emperor Chongming and the Supreme Emperor.

Originally, Jia Yun was just a counselor, that is, the emperor's bodyguard, so naturally he was not taken seriously by the emperor.

But if he were to seize the title, the important resources of the Duke's government, or political resources, would be controlled by Jia Yun. In this way, Jia Yun would definitely fall into the eyes of the Supreme Emperor, and if he was not careful, his reputation would be ruined.

Regarding King Zhongshun's advice, Jia Yun had no choice at all. Now that Jia Yun had offended the Duke's government, if he offended the emperor again, one can imagine Jia Yun's fate.

Moreover, from the moment Jia Yun came to Beijing, Jia Yun was an out-and-out royalist.

When he entered the capital as an official, Jia Yun held a military position and was also a guard. He had almost no foothold. Naturally, he could not stay out of the affairs like others. If he wanted to stand out, he could only stand in line.

At least, so far, it seems that I have indeed benefited a lot.

Nowadays, Jia Yun can only inherit the title of Duke Ningguo. Jia Yun is not in a hurry about this. The title is like nothing in Jia Yun, but it is of great significance to the Jia family. The Jia family, which has lost the reputation of a double master, can still

With so much power?

It's not just the servants who praise others but also the officials of the imperial court. It's impossible for the Jia family not to understand why. Because of this, even if Jia Yun's anger makes Jia's mother faint, she still has to beg Jia Yun to attack.

Jue, so Jia Yun was not worried about not being able to complete the emperor's mission.

This Jia family will also take the initiative to look for him.

It's just that Jia Yun sternly refused in the hall before, and he never expected the slap in the face to come so quickly.

But this is not necessarily a good thing.

If Jia Yun were to seize the title, he would definitely take drastic measures. If not, he would be dragged down sooner or later, and Jia's mother was the only one who could restrain Jia Yun.

After this trouble, you may be able to get some benefits.

"Sir, how can I see that you are so preoccupied?" Qingwen, who had made the bed, saw that Jia Yun was absent-minded and asked boldly.

Jia Yun turned his head and glanced at the beautiful girl in front of him, whose figure was set off by a flowing cloud skirt.

This Qingwen's dress has broken the simple and simple dress of the slave, and she is now dressed as a young lady, even more elegant and gorgeous than ordinary ladies.

In this regard, Jia Yun did not scold him. Who studied the beautiful face and beautiful appearance? How could Jia Yun have no idea?

Stretching his waist, Jia Yun had some idea in his mind, so he stopped thinking too much and said, "What can I have on my mind? I'd better do your job well."

When Qingwen saw that Jia Yun was perfunctory with her, she immediately became displeased. She pouted and said, "I'm careful in my work. I haven't done anything well."

When Jia Yun heard the words, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he stretched out his hand to beckon. Qingwen understood and walked forward. Jia Yun reached out and pinched Qingwen's chin, and said with a smile: "You are becoming more and more frivolous. I didn't even say a word to you."

I can’t even tell.”

Qingwen's chin was rubbed by Jia Yun, and her face immediately turned red, looking pretty and cute.

Jia Yun looked at the young girl in front of him. He was not in a hurry. She was a little more tender...
