"Why?"
Emperor Yongping frowned slightly when he heard the Queen Mother's words.
He is now very unhappy with Xu Mansion.
If Xu Huairen's mission to the Northern Barbarians had not been unfavorable, where could these previous things have happened
Originally, he wanted to follow Xu Laoer's memorial and convict Xu Huairen of being a liaison with the Northern Barbarians, but the matter was not under his control at all.
"Emperor, Xu Mansion cannot fall!"
"Not only can't you fail, but you also need to make an idea as soon as possible to inherit the title of Duke An Tai!"
"Mother, why is this happening?"
Emperor Yongping was really confused and didn't understand why his mother treated Xu Mansion so differently.
Xu Mansion, one family and three masters!
Now he granted Xu Shuo the title of Lord Dingguo, Xu Huaiyi the title of Marquis of Wucheng, and Xu Yuanxi the title of Uncle Yongwu.
The Xu Mansion, the first family of Xungui, was even more glorious than the time of Emperor Taizu.
If he did not take the opportunity to weaken the power of the Xu Mansion, Emperor Yongping was really afraid that the Xu Mansion would not be able to lose its power, and it might threaten the Li family's Tang Dynasty State in the future.
"The Xu family and my Li family have a relationship where both prosper and suffer."
"The Xu Mansion with three masters is a shield that Emperor Taizu used to create a shield for the royal family!"
"As long as Xu Mansion is still there, the emperor can do many things with the sword of Xu Mansion."
"Why do you think the old lady of the Xu Mansion is so domineering? Why does the daughter of the Xu Mansion make trouble in various noble houses?"
"Emperor, you should think carefully about these things!"
When the Queen Mother said this, Emperor Yongping fell silent and was really thinking about these things.
The Xu family has three nobles, and it is the most noble family.
Mrs. Xu also had connections with at least half of the nobles in the Tang Dynasty through marriage. However, the ladies from the Xu Mansion who Mrs. Xu married were all very evil. However, they acted like monsters in various ways. Instead of blaming them, Mrs. Xu firmly supported these people.
"Mother, do you mean that Mrs. Xu is showing her loyalty to the royal family?"
"exactly!"
The Queen Mother nodded, "The old lady of the Xu Mansion used this method to make the Xu Mansion have enmity with many noble families. She is showing her loyalty to our Li family."
"Thank you, Queen Mother, for the suggestion. If it weren't for the Queen Mother's suggestion, I really wouldn't have thought of this!"
Emperor Yongping really didn't expect this level.
In the past, whenever he heard that the married daughter of the Xu family was causing trouble at her husband's house, he would just take it as a spectator and listen to the story, thinking that Mrs. Xu was really stupid.
When other people get married, they always marry from the same surname.
But it was good for her, and the marriages she formed often resulted in enemies.
"Emperor, don't let Mrs. Xu feel cold!"
"Now that Xu Mansion is blocking the way, the pressure the royal family has to bear is much less. Even for those noble families, their first thought is how to make their family grow into the most noble family."
"Emperor Taizu has great talents and strategies, and has already made careful arrangements for future generations!"
"Emperor, you still need to watch and learn more!"
The Queen Mother looked at Emperor Yongping very seriously, "If you are not sure about some things, you might as well ask the eldest princess!"
"My son, please remember your mother's teachings!"
Emperor Yongping respectfully agreed.
Then, he resigned from the Queen Mother's palace.
After all, the Queen Mother is now a broken person and needs to take a good rest.
…
"Marquis Zhenjun, have you discovered anything?"
After leaving the Queen Mother, Emperor Yongping still immediately called Yan Mei, the commander-in-chief, to the front.
"Returning to the Holy Spirit, I am incompetent and have not found any doubts!"
Although Zhenjun Hou Yanmei guessed Emperor Yongping's thoughts, he really couldn't do it to let him slander someone casually without conscience.
His name means ignorance, which means hiding, not ignorance of conscience.
"If that's the case, then it's really an accident!"
After receiving some advice from the Queen Mother, Emperor Yongping quickly changed his mind.
"In this case, the Marquis of Lao Zhenjun will come with me to the Xu Mansion!"
"I obey the decree!"
Yan Mei responded respectfully.
But in his heart, he was puzzled for a while, not understanding what Emperor Yongping meant. Could it be that he thought there was something fishy about Mrs. Xu's fall
…
Xu Mansion was in a state of gloom and gloom.
Mrs. Xu broke an arm and a leg. Although she was rescued, she was obviously in poor spirits.
Even the imperial doctor felt a little helpless.
The cousins, Duke Changle and Duke Yong'an, both had grim faces and looked down upon each other.
The entire Xu Mansion was shrouded in unprecedented oppression.
Under such circumstances, Emperor Yongping's chariot arrived outside the gate of Xu Mansion.
When Duke Changle and Duke Yongan heard that the emperor was coming, they quickly brought people from the mansion to the gate to greet him.
Xu Mansion, the former Haiyan Mansion of King Taiping, covers a really large area. Of course, it is still inferior to the palace.
But even so, Emperor Yongping was still a little shocked.
Especially seeing the population of Xu Mansion.
The number of Xu's men alone is almost over a hundred.
"I'm here just to visit the old lady, please don't be restrained, my dear friends!"
After listening to the Queen Mother's teachings, Emperor Yongping's attitude towards Duke Changle and Duke Yongan was very kind.
…
In the Ci Ren Hall, Mrs. Xu knew that Emperor Yongping had arrived and quickly asked the nun beside her to help her up.
"Old lady, you absolutely must not!"
Emperor Yongping appeared at the right time and stopped Mrs. Xu who was struggling to get up. "You are the elder. I am just a junior who came to visit you today. If you get up, I will have sinned!"
"Your Majesty, you are serious!"
Although Mrs. Xu said so, she just lay down again.
Emperor Yongping received the Empress Dowager's advice, and naturally he would not be dissatisfied with Mrs. Xu's gesture.
He came here just to show off his attitude and give the Xu family, the first family of Xungui, full face.
After a brief visit and inquiry, Emperor Yongping left Cirentang.
After talking to Duke Changle and Duke Yong'an for a while, Emperor Yongping talked about the inheritance of Duke Antai's title. After a few words, he decided on the inheritance of Duke Antai's title.
Xu Yuanzhen, the eldest son of Xu Huairen, Duke of Antai, took over the title.
As a result, the three masters of the Xu Mansion took shape again.
Xu Yuanzhen!
Although he was Xu Huairen's eldest son, he was really useless.
This incompetence is not the incompetence of a playboy, but because his brain capacity is too small.
In short, the new An Taigong is a fool.
Emperor Yongping liked this situation very much.
Duke Changle and Duke Yongan also liked it very much.
In the Xu Mansion, which is composed of three princes, the three princes are not of the same mind. The more An Taigong is defeated, the more benefits Changle Palace and Yongan can get.
After all, they all have their own children and grandchildren, so naturally they don't need to be too concerned about their nephews and grandnephews.
"Stupid!"
In Ciren Hall, Mrs. Xu sighed again when she heard the news that Duke An Tai's title had been settled. (End of chapter)
