(There was a problem with the phone line at home this morning, so I’m sorry now)
The scandal of the crown prince's affair with the harem is still a hot topic of discussion among Huixian residents after dinner. However, at the same time, the romantic affair of the son of the minister and the son of the county magistrate fighting at the "Baihua Tower" at the same time also makes many people enjoy it.

The person who caused all this was Gu Yao, who was looking distressed and chattering endlessly.
It seems that time has taken special care of Gu Yao. He has passed his thirties, but he still looks like a young scholar. In addition, he likes to wear young green scholar clothes, so he is always privately commented by Xiao Yueye and others as a pretense. Tender.
"It's such an insult to my reputation, Gu Yao, that I went to a brothel openly to solicit prostitution!"
"You just go whoring, and you even gave a demonstration in a brothel to let the whole Hui County know that the students I taught went to the brothel to talk about the Tao of Confucius and Mencius?!"
"Are you saying it's embarrassing for you that you didn't realize that you had a live performance in front of everyone?"
. . . . . .
Seeing Gu Yao's words, two pairs of angry eyes were cast on her body. The coldness inside made the summer heat a bit less. Xiao Yueye smiled and swallowed and said, "Mr. Gu, you have already scolded me for half the time." It's been a long time since they realized they were wrong, so just let them go. This young man Sichun is quite normal!"
Gu Yao's voice paused and he looked at Xiao Yueye as if he was thinking about it. Then he looked at Su Jing and Song Hu said loudly, "Do you really realize your mistake?"
How could Su Jing and Song Hu dare to say that they were right? They nodded like chickens eating rice.
Nodding with satisfaction, Gu Yao sat down on his seat, picked up the tea cup that was kept cool, and poured it into his mouth without caring about the elegant image he usually cultivated, and exhaled comfortably.
Not only Xiao Yueye and the three people sitting under him breathed a sigh of relief, but also the three of them. It's a hot summer day and it's relatively hot and humid today. It makes people feel restless. Sitting here and listening to Gu Yao's chatter for more than half an hour is simply more miserable than practicing.
"By the way, do you two know where you went wrong?" Gu Yaozheng picked up the "University" in his hand and suddenly put it down and asked.
Song Hu and Su Jingyi were stunned for a while. Song Hu looked at Su Jing, who turned his eyes and said sincerely: "Everything was wrong from the moment we got lustful. From the beginning to the end, from the discussion of the affair to the end of the affair, we were all wrong. Gu Sir, we won’t dare to do it again next time.”
Seeing his pretentious look, Gu Yao threw the "University" in his hand over angrily and cursed: "Don't use this trick to prevaricate me. It's normal for men to go to brothels for food and sex. Even Master Kong didn’t object! But your biggest mistake is that you let others know that you went to **. What’s even more disgusting is that because of your ****, I was said to be immoral and the lower beam was crooked every day! "
Xiao Yueye and the three of them looked at each other and they all said oh in their hearts at the same time. It was because he had such a bad temper after being said a few words by those old masters who liked to rely on their elders and act like they were orthodox. What an unreasonable disaster!
After studying in the past few years, the three of them have closely understood Gu Yao's temperament. To put it simply, Gu Yao is an old pervert who talks too much and is a bit petty. This made the three people who were deeply shocked by Gu Yao's personality charm at a certain moment extremely sad and regretted how they could have fallen for such a "husband" back then!
Suddenly, Gu Yao's face tightened and his playful smile suddenly disappeared. Xiao Yueye and the others knew that class was really about to start now, and they straightened their postures and looked at him seriously.
"Okay, let's get to the point. You also know something about the case of the crown prince seizing the harem. News came from the capital that a ruling has been issued." Gu Yao said with a calm expression.
"What! Didn't it mean that I have been hesitant and delayed in issuing an order?" Song Hu stood up fiercely, his eyes as big as copper bells.
No wonder he was so surprised. Since Song Chuan decided to focus on cultivating his son, he sent someone to deliver news from the capital to him every day, rain or shine. But the news Song Hu received yesterday was just "no ruling". Why did it change in Gu Yao's mouth today! And I haven't received any news yet.
Su Jing pulled Song Hu down. He changed his usual high-spirited naughty look and looked at Gu Yao with piercing eyes and said, "I guess Mr. Gu won't lie and say that he doesn't know the news from the capital?"
Among the three, Xiao Yueye looked calm, but he had a slight doubt in his mind: Did his mother do anything
Gu Yao looked at Su Jing with appreciation and nodded with a smile.
"The prince was deprived of his virtue and demoted to the Xiaoling Mausoleum to atone for his sins; his mother, Zhang, had no way of depriving her son of a noble concubine and was demoted to Zhaoyi and banned from the Feitian Palace; Zhenbei General Zhang Dehai, as the prince's grandfather, was fined half a year's salary; the prince's tutor Liu Yunken The prince will be killed for misleading him! Anyone involved in this matter, be it the talented person, the palace maid, or the eunuch, will be killed!”
Xiao Yueye instinctively frowned and looked at Su Jing. The latter's eyes also flashed with light as he looked at Xiao Yueye with deep meaning.
Song Hu called out softly: "My mother, how many people are going to die this time is too big!"
Gu Yao glared at him, leaned back on the chair, raised the corners of his mouth habitually, and closed his eyes.
Song Hu's interest in government affairs was far less than that of battlefield skills, but he was not a fool. Looking at this atmosphere, he knew that Gu Yao was definitely not innocent, and he calmed down to think about the story behind this matter.
About a quarter of an hour later, Su Jing opened his mouth and asked, "Mr. Gu, what is the background of the talented person who was asked to be executed?"
Gu Yao gently opened his eyes, a flash of light flashed through his eyes. He said hello and then slowly said: "There are two talented people. They are the eldest daughter of Cheng Zhong, the Minister of Household Affairs, and Liang He, the Qing of Dali Temple." This woman. As for the identity of one of the palace ladies who was executed, she was the second daughter of Yunzhou Daotai in the northwest."
Song Hu slapped the table and suddenly realized: "I understand."
Gu Yao raised his eyebrows and said with a half-smile, "Oh? What do you know?"
Song Hu straightened out the thoughts in his mind and said with excitement: "The ministers of Dali and Temple are all prime ministers with unpredictable powers. Today's emperor is doing this to take the opportunity to cut off part of his wings; but Yunzhou belongs to Zhang Dehai, the general of Zhenbei." The scope of influence of Prince Liu Yun was also recommended by Zhang Dehai. This also weakened part of his power. If something happened to the prince, the eldest prince and his party would definitely take action. While dealing with the prince, Jinshang also warned them not to cause more trouble. Am I right, sir?”
Gu Yao looked at Song Hu carefully as if he didn't know him: "Well, I caught something. I usually look down on you."
Ignoring Song Hu's complacency, Gu Yao turned to Su Jing and signaled.
Su Jing stood up and touched the bridge of his nose with his finger and said: "What the tiger said is only superficial. Judging from the edict, although he has dealt with the prince's party, his method is very thought-provoking: guarding the Xiaoling Mausoleum, grounding, fines and salary, etc., are very important to this matter. It was a completely trivial punishment that did not hurt the foundation of the prince's faction. On the contrary, for the eldest prince who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, this edict hurt a lot of vitality. Daotai Taifu and his ilk are much more important."
"So what do you think?"
Su Jing smiled confidently and raised his right hand unconsciously: "So I think the first thing is to use this incident to warn everyone in the court. The second thing is to express dissatisfaction with the dispute between the prime minister and the general. The third thing is also the most important. Jin Jangren has been trying to take action for so many years. The first thing he has to do is to slowly separate the political and military power from Mo Zhiqi and Zhang Dehai. "
Gu Yao motioned him to sit down and nodded and said: "Yes, the government has always adhered to the principle of balance in the past. As long as the prime minister and general factions are not making too much trouble, he will let it go. But since the second prince was appointed as the prince, the two factions have been fighting more and more. So this move is to give both parties a warning. How could those old foxes in the court not see that Zhang Dehai knelt down and cried on the spot, complaining that his goddaughter was unwilling to shut up and think about his mistakes, and it was rare that he did not add insult to injury. "
Song Hu asked doubtfully on the side: "His Majesty the Emperor's methods are known to the world. He basically holds the government and military power firmly in his hands. Why would he want to take action now?"
Gu Yao didn't say anything but looked at Xiao Yueye. Of course Su Jing knew what Gu Yao meant and swallowed the words he was about to spit out. He looked at Xiao Yueye expectantly.
Xiao Yueye, who originally wanted to keep a low profile, could only say with a smile: "The simple reason is that half of the officials in the court are his disciples, the Queen Mother's younger brother, and Zhang Dehai is the veteran general of the two dynasties. He was the one who promoted them. These two people have no qualms about Jin Shang, but it is inevitable that they will make some small moves. In addition, it is not a good sign that the civil servants and military officers are at odds, so I guess the real purpose of this edict is to deter the current excesses. As for the two factions, it is unlikely that they will seize power. After all, with the current methods and their credibility among courtiers, these tricks are not needed. "
Su Jing lowered his head and thought for a while and then asked doubtfully: "But Xiaoye, don't you think this edict is very powerful for the prince's party? With this approach, a discerning person can see the emperor's partiality at a glance. Today's emperor has The prince’s pampering is really too much.”
Xiao Yueye said leisurely: "The current Holy Emperor is not doting on the prince, but is completely indulgent. Judging from the past political achievements, the current Holy Emperor is a very strict and self-disciplined person. There is no reason to speak and act like this to his heir. So I have always been in my heart. I have a bold guess."
An idea flashed in Su Jing's mind and he opened his mouth in surprise: "You don't mean to say that the current emperor deliberately used the prince as bait! Could it be that he has been setting up this trap since the day he established the prince? This is not good for him. What’s the benefit?”
Gu Yao clapped lightly on the side and interjected: "Of course there is a benefit, that is, establishing an immoral prince can easily cause a fight between the two factions of the DPRK and China, and many small actions hidden in the dark will surface. For example, Yaozhou the year before last Wasn’t the Granary Case brought about by the unpredictable princelings?”
Song Hu, who had been listening carefully at the side, asked after hearing Gu Yao's explanation: "Although the factional strife between the DPRK and China can make some secret actions surface, it will do more harm than good to Chao Gang!"
At this time, Su Jing's mind opened up and his mind became clear. He smiled and took over the words: "The so-called disadvantages have only slowly emerged in the past two years. Think about how the power of your father Song Chuan's lineage rose? Isn't that right? Is the current emperor secretly manipulating the powerful? It's ridiculous that Na unpredictable and Zhang Dehai know that they are guns in the hands of others, but they can only follow the wishes of the emperor until the government becomes clear in the past two years. The emperor cannot tolerate the dispute between the two factions. Naturally, I used this incident as a hint, but I really admire Jinshang’s methods for being so ruthless in taking advantage of his own son.”
"Of course, if I didn't have such means, how could I have obtained the willing surrender of all the officials!" Xiao Yueye said with a smile. He truly admires the entire Murong Dynasty for the current Holy Emperor.
Song Hu sighed and said: "There are only two princes and one princess in the Holy Emperor today. According to what you said, the second prince is deposed, so the prince's position must be inherited by the eldest prince. It is impossible to pass the throne to the one from Kuizhou, Yu Province, right?"
Kuizhou is talking about today's younger brother "Zhao Wang" Murong Hui. The late emperor had a total of five princes, and the remaining three died in the brutal struggle for the throne. The only one who survived was Murong Hui. Today, he is named "King Zhao" and the rich Kuizhou is given to him as a fief. He is a truly wealthy prince.
"It's not necessarily that the second prince just has bad moral character. He is not inferior to the eldest prince in terms of civility and martial arts. This time he was sent to guard the mausoleum is only temporary. What I mean is clearly that the prince's position will be occupied by the one who can do it. It's just that. Mr. Gu, I'm a little surprised that the current emperor's behavior has been erratic for so many years. Sometimes it feels like he is playing chess and is as unpredictable as this." Xiao Yueye looked at the happy Gu Yao and asked in confusion.
Su Jing also nodded and said: "Yes, I feel the same way. For example, in the second year of the Tianli calendar, the emperor personally went on a decisive battle with 'Meng Yuan' and despite winning consecutive victories, he ignored the dissuasion of the generals and insisted on fighting with 'Meng Yuan'. "Negotiating peace. It's impossible to say that he is timid, but why did he do this today?"
Gu Yao's eyebrows tightened, his eyes were slightly dazed, and he murmured: "No one can see his thoughts clearly except her. It's just a pity..."
Suddenly he woke up and looked at the three people who seemed to have realized something. Gu Yao smiled softly and said: "Yes, an edict can help you connect what you know. This is my purpose. From now on, the focus of our courses will be Just focus on the government analysis case internship, which will be of great benefit to your future career. Song Hu, don't frown. If you want to become a general of the country, you have to learn. You are the weakest among these three. Big events are related to civil affairs, so you have to study hard. Let's take a break. Why don't Song Hu ask someone to serve some fruit?" (Quanben Novel Network www.QuANbEn-XiAoShUo.com)
