Chapter Five Hundred and Ninety-Six The Young Man of Loyalty...
Eunuch Miao and Fang Yingwu, who had been yelling at each other for a long time, were actually in almost the same mood at this time. One of them stood behind the prince, and the other stood behind his father. They looked at each other subconsciously, and they both felt it in each other's eyes.
What.
Fang Yingwu had a relatively thorough understanding of Eunuch Miao's behavior, and guessed that someone else was instigating Eunuch Miao behind his back, so he refused to settle down and was holding back his energy to make a scene.
But Eunuch Miao suddenly became suspicious of Fang Yingwu. As a person who could sneak into the palace and mix well, Eunuch Miao was not lacking in vigilance. Eunuch Miao didn't notice it just now, but now that he thought about it, he suddenly felt that Fang Yingwu seemed to be
He is also a bit of a fan of trouble, just like his own.
Miao Daban had a purpose for doing this, but what was Fang Yingwu doing for? Eunuch Miao suddenly remembered something. Fang Yingwu was supposed to enter the palace to meet the saint today, and looking at the time now,
It should be the end of the memorials and responses between the king and his ministers.
As for why Fang Yingwu appeared here? Eunuch Miao thought about it and the only explanation was that after Fang Yingwu retired from His Majesty, he met his father Fang Qingzhi in the palace, so he wanted to use Fang Qingzhi's position as an official in the East Palace.
I am here to see the prince in the Wenhua Hall, so as to plan for his future advancement.
The prince is the future emperor. Who among the ministers would not want to marry the prince in advance? But it is not easy for foreign ministers to enter the palace, and it is usually even more difficult to meet the prince to invest in the future. Moreover, the circle around the prince has long been monopolized by the officials of the East Palace.
So it is human nature for Fang Yingwu to seize today's opportunity and borrow his father's honor. There is nothing surprising. Otherwise, how would Fang Yingwu have the opportunity to enter the palace outside of the morning court?
On this basis, Eunuch Miao understood Fang Yingwu’s behavior very well. Whether Fang Qingzhi wanted to compromise and minimize the big issue, or Fang Yingwu deliberately made a noise and diverted trouble to the east, they were actually dealing with the current problem.
There is no superior or inferior method.
When Miao Eunuch thought about it, what Fang Yingwu wanted to do was actually Qingliu's trick. Using this excuse, he could seize the princes and control the eunuchs and trample them to death. The purpose was nothing more than two points. On the one hand, it could relieve the prince's own pain.
take the responsibility, put the blame on the left and right eunuchs, and protect the prince's position amidst the turmoil of public opinion;
On the other hand, Fang Yingwu fought vigorously against the evil villains around the prince for the sake of the East Palace Kingdom, which was enough to gain a great reputation. For Qingliu, fame is never too much. Maybe after this incident, the ministers will recommend Fang Yingwu
Enter the East Palace.
When he thought about this, Eunuch Miao secretly laughed. Fang Yingwu wanted to step on his Eunuch Miao, but he had to see if he was good enough!
Fang Yingwu looked at Eunuch Miao and told the prince again: "This matter can be concealed for a while, but it is difficult to conceal it for a lifetime. Needless to say, I don't need to talk about the interests and consequences. It does not lie with my father and son. The prince should know!"
I secretly think that we should stop being rebellious and seduce the prince into losing his moral character. We should definitely deal with him strictly and quickly, clearly show the prince's intention to change, and set the record straight!"
After all, Zhu Youtang was not too stupid, and he finally understood what Fang Yingwu really meant. That is to say, even if the Fang family and his son did not see him playing dice and gambling with the eunuch today, even if the news was blocked today, sooner or later
It will also be leaked. If this is used by someone with intentions, the consequences will be extremely serious.
Therefore, it is better to take the initiative, quickly and decisively shift the responsibility to the left and right eunuchs, identify the problem immediately, and then introduce the scapegoat. In this way, even if the problem is initially solved, he, the prince, will not be in the public opinion in the future.
Being passive, those who want to make trouble will have no excuse.
Moreover, Zhu Youtang also felt that although Fang Yingwu's words were a bit fierce and his attitude was not as compromise as Fang Qingzhi's, the starting point was still for his own good, and he could indeed solve the problem, and it was a solution that would almost eliminate future troubles.
In fact, it is the principle of gecko cutting off its tail to survive. It can also be regarded as a variant of the bitter meat trick! Zhu Youtang hesitated after hearing this. Is it really like Fang Yingwu said that he would deal with all the eunuchs who were close to him to express his remorse and use his words to silence everyone? ?
This was still a conflict between reason and emotion, and it was equally difficult to make a choice. Zhu Youtang was in a dilemma for a while.
Eunuch Miao secretly observed the prince's words and became anxious when he saw the prince's demeanor. If the prince believed Fang Yingwu's lies, he would be the first to suffer misfortune!
In desperation, Eunuch Miao also had an idea. Just now, Fang Qingzhi dared to go all out and admit his mistake like a bachelor. Even their father-in-laws dared to be bachelors. In this world, who is afraid of the other when they fight hard!
So Eunuch Miao knelt in front of Zhu Youtang and apologized: "I just saw that the young prince was having a hard time studying, so I wanted to help the young prince to amuse himself. If I don't admit that I want to cause trouble, it is really not a pity to die!" I hope that when the young emperor achieves success in the future, he will still remember the hard work of the servants and others in serving the young emperor!"
"Daban, you..." Zhu Youtang became indecisive. From an emotional point of view, he was reluctant to deal with the people close to him.
After all, Eunuch Miao and others had taken good care of him over the years. There were not many close people in the palace. How could people be so ruthless as they are not grass and trees?
Fang Yingwu urged: "The prince must not lose the great for the sake of small things, and must not forget the great benevolence for the sake of small righteousness!"
Zhu Youtang's expression changed again and again, and finally he sighed: "How can I arbitrarily blame others for my faults? I should bear the responsibility myself, and there is no need for Miao Da companions to take the blame!"
Can he think clearly about who is loyal to him? Fang Yingwu quickly said: "The son of a rich man cannot sit down in court, and the prince must not be so rash!"
Zhu Youtang said categorically: "I have made up my mind, don't say any more!"
What a simple and passionate young man... Fang Yingwu was speechless for a long time. This is not the way to talk about loyalty. You, a dignified prince, don't talk about loyalty with your slaves. Isn't this self-destruction?
Fang Yingwu's original intention was to force out the person behind Eunuch Miao and see who instigated Eunuch Miao. He didn't believe that Eunuch Miao would really surrender without mercy. When the last resort came, the person behind Eunuch Miao It must be revealed, and then the opportunity arises.
Unexpectedly, the prince is really uncooperative and actually wants to take all the responsibility on himself. His Royal Highness also doesn't think about it. Under the current situation, some people are afraid that they have no handle. How can he get better by doing this?
Eunuch Miao got up from the ground, stood behind the prince and faced Fang Yingwu. A smile flashed across his face, and then he quickly straightened his face again. However, his somewhat proud gaze never left Fang Yingwu. It seemed like a provocation. In terms of understanding the prince, how could Fang Yingwu be better than their eunuch?
Fang Qingzhi watched for a long time and couldn't help but glare at his son. Is this guy just here to help today? If the prince is ruined, the future of Fang Qingzhi, a minister in the East Palace, will be ruined!
PS: Crying and apologizing, don’t abandon me... I went out to do errands today, and I never had time to do anything. I just came back from drinking in the evening, and then I couldn’t log in to the Qidian backend... Now I will save and post this chapter first, and then tonight I don’t sleep and stay up late coding and writing, and I don’t stop working until I feel at ease!
