Chapter 33: The undercurrent of the court

Views:

"The emperor today has three sons. The eldest son is the daughter of the imperial concubine, and the second son is the daughter of the empress. The chief arrester of the six gates is the imperial concubine's younger brother, and the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei is the empress's nephew. But Jiang Yunguang cannot rely on both sides, but he is here His Majesty has great weight in his heart, and the next commander is likely to fall on him." Ye Wuji analyzed.

Shi Yuan nodded and motioned for her to continue.

Ye Wuji was encouraged and his ideas became smoother and smoother.

"Jiang Yunguang's temperament is different from others. He is more arrogant and hates fighting in the court. Neither faction can win him over. Xi Ting puts the blame on Jiang Yunguang, just to unseat him and replace him with his own person. . And Jin Han seems to be protecting him, but in fact he is adding fuel to the flames. As the commander of the Jinyi Guards, if he really wants to protect someone, he will definitely not argue endlessly in the court. The Jinyi Guards are known as hawks and dogs, and he only needs Luo Zhi. If other charges are placed on Liumen, the matter will naturally go away."

"But among so many methods, he chose the last resort. The more fiercely they fought in the court, the deeper his hatred towards Jiang Yunguang became in His Majesty's heart. The more people Shangzhe protected him, the more His Majesty would doubt whether he It was suspected of forming a clique for personal gain. The eldest princess of Xinyang whipped Jiang Yunguang just to protect him. Then she took Jiang Yunguang to the emperor to plead guilty. The eldest princess cried and complained that she had no way to teach her son, and then Jiang Yunguang took the opportunity to resign from the post of Jin Yiwei Qianhu. He can show the emperor that he has no intention of clinging to power, and he can retreat bravely and escape safely from the turbulent undercurrents of the imperial court."

Shi Yuan nodded approvingly and said, "It's not easy for you to have such knowledge at such a young age." '

Ye Wuji smiled sheepishly and said, "I was just making wild guesses. My master would sometimes tell me about court matters. I listened to them, but I ended up doing tricks in front of my elder brother."

Shi Yuan said: "What you said is generally correct, but you are wrong about one thing."

"What's wrong?"

"Jin Han is not the queen's person."

"How could it be! He is the queen's nephew."

"In the face of interests, even father and son can turn against each other, let alone a nephew."

"Then whose person is he?"

Shi Yuan turned around, hung up his piano, and said, "Wuji, you haven't practiced sword practice today."

"Tch, if you don't want to say it, just say it! I don't want to hear it! People in the court just like to scheming, but we Jianghu people are more cheerful." Ye Wuji said, picked up the sword on the table and went out.

"How do you know that Jianghu is not another court?" Shi Yuan looked at Ye Wuji's back and said softly.

The eldest princess's trick was very effective. On the second day, His Majesty the Emperor issued an order to commend Jiang Yunguang for his merits in handling the case. He was also given a jade crown, two dragon pendants, ten volumes of banknotes, and the emperor's personal inscription: " He is witty and brave, and solves crimes like a god." As a result, the accusations against Jiang Yunguang in the court gradually disappeared.

Jiang Yunguang looked at the words hanging in the hall, without any happy expression on his face.

"I think your Majesty is mocking me." Jiang Yunguang said with a bitter face, "What's wrong with writing? I have to write about solving crimes like a god."

Princess Xinyang held the back of his head and brought his forehead into close contact with the table.

"Stop talking nonsense!" the eldest princess scolded, "Do you know how many people are staring at you now? If you don't be careful with your words and deeds, even I will follow suit!"

"I've long said that I shouldn't be the son of Qianhu, but somehow I became a target."

The eldest princess sneered: "You are so old, don't be so naive. As your father's son, you are destined to not be able to live for yourself."

"Father...?" Jiang Yunguang's only memory of his father was a figure with a white horse and a silver gun, but because of this figure, he was burdened with many things that he should not bear at his age.
