Chapter 689 Undercurrent

If even Li Cunyi could not be saved, then what should the people below think, and what would the nobles of Huaixi think?

Li Cunyi is not only Prime Minister Li's biological brother, but also his in-laws. This relationship is undoubtedly a close family relationship. In this era where relatives are valued and hidden, can the dignified prime minister just sit on the sidelines?

If a person who cannot even protect his close relatives would bother to protect the people below him if something really happened, would he bother to protect his subordinates? They are all officials of the Ming Dynasty. Why did they join the Prime Minister?

Hu Weiyong sighed: "You will go to Li's house in person later and make sure to make it clear and reassure him that I will do my best no matter what tomorrow."

Chen Liang smiled bitterly and said: "Prime Minister, what's the use of going to Li's Mansion at this time? Why don't I go to Yan's Mansion? After all, it's not the morning of tomorrow yet. Maybe there is still room for maneuver."

Hu Weiyong glanced in the direction of Gongcheng and shook his head: "They had no choice but to shoot. Chen Youzong is such a steady person. The sudden attack must be the intention of the palace."

Of course, Chen Liang was not unaware of this, and they had even expected that His Highness might get angry and beat them hard, and were even prepared for several of their confidants to be demoted.

Fighting against the king is no less than fighting against the sky. There is no reason to escape unscathed. It is just a matter of having to do it and try your best to survive. If you can have a chance to defeat Tian Banzi, your life will be worth it.

But what I didn't expect was that His Highness was so angry that he wanted to attack Li Cunyi. Even the Holy Emperor took good care of him. Moreover, Li Liangdi in the East Palace was also extremely favored, with a status second only to the Crown Princess. Li Qi was also about to marry His Highness the Princess.

It is said that Li Cunyi is not only a close relative of Hu Weiyong, but also has connections with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Otherwise, they would not be so unprepared. They were really caught off guard.

Hu Weiyong had a headache. The slight feeling of pride that had arisen today was instantly wiped out by His Highness the Crown Prince. He regretted arranging this incident and was burning himself.

Not long after, Tu Jie, Chen Ning and others also arrived. There were many people summoned by the Yan Mansion, and they did not deliberately conceal the news, so they all knew it.

Of course, not everyone would know it so quickly, but Tu Jie and others were paying close attention to it, and they also gathered some officials who could not get along with the direct lineage of the East Palace and wanted to sit on the fence.

After Tu Jie came in and saluted, he said: "Brother Cun, please come. It's best to resign tomorrow morning before they make trouble."

"This is a way. Being impeached and deposed and actively retreating are two different things. Others can't find any reason. Prime Minister, I think it is feasible."

Hu Weiyong thought for a moment and vetoed: "This is because Your Highness is angry. He avoids the important and ignores the minor to prevent His Highness from venting his anger. The consequences will only be more serious."

Chen Ning answered: "But Li Cunyi has a special status. We know that the prime minister is in trouble and we can understand it, but the same cannot be said for those below. It will be difficult to reunite once people's hearts are separated."

Everyone was silent for a while. The matter in the capital camp did not involve them, but the prince actually hit them hard from somewhere else. All I can say is that he is truly worthy of being the prince of this dynasty.

"The Beijing Camp can't move anymore in the future, the gains outweigh the losses!"

Hu Weiyong asked Tu Jie: "How big are the flaws at Taipu Temple? Can the holes be filled tonight, and can the culprit be singled out?"

Tu Jie has always been responsible for this kind of thing. After thinking about it for a while, he said: "The problem is not really big. It is just greed for more money. It's just that time is a bit tight. If Chen Youzong and the others don't put any obstacles in their way, they can make up for three or four of them before tomorrow morning."

become."

"As for the accusation, it is difficult to deal with it. There are only two young ministers from Taipu Temple with enough status. One was recommended by Chen Youzong. This is why they were able to find out the clues about Li Cunyi so quickly. The other one is one of ours, but

That man is You Cheng’s cousin…”

Chen Liang immediately answered: "Brother Chen, I will let the prime minister drive me and I won't say anything."

Absolutely no doubt, how is this possible? It is not easy for the powerful Taipusi Shaoqing to get up, not to mention that Li Cunyi will not die no matter what. The prince will take care of the faces of Mr. Li and Li Liangdi regardless of his face.

Others who dare to take the blame will not be able to save their lives. If they lose their official positions, they can get compensation from other sources, but if they lose their lives, there is no use in compensation. To be honest, if it were not for symbolic significance, ten Li Cunyi would be worse than

There is no right-hand man like Chen Liang.

Hu Weiyong told Tu Jie: "Go there immediately and make up for it as much as you can. There is no need to be stingy with money."

Gu Mian/span>The imperial court was very ruthless in cracking down on corruption, but how could the centuries-old abuses of the Song and Yuan Dynasties be solved in just a few years? It was nothing more than turning from the bright side to the dark side, and all the people in the Hu Party were corrupt officials.

The greatest protection.

The filial piety received every year is a huge amount. Although a lot of money is spent on maintenance and management to win people's hearts, there is still a surplus of food after all, and it is easy to make up for the shortfall of a Taipus Temple.

It's just that I only have one night to make up for the shortfall and the accounts cannot be reconciled, just to make up for the loss, just to beg for mercy tomorrow.

Tu Jie accepted the order and left. Hu Weiyong comforted Chen Liang and promised to do his best to support his brother's promotion to the position of Taipusi Minister. Chen Liang was naturally grateful.

Then Chen Liang went to Li Cunyi's house. No matter how special Li Cunyi's status was, he could not let him speak out without hesitation tomorrow with resentment in his heart. Otherwise, for such a person, it would be enough to achieve good things but not do bad things.

Hu Weiyong immediately wrote a letter to his mentor, confessing to him sincerely. Although Li Shanchang no longer had real power, when he left, he was granted the title of Crown Prince and Tutor and granted gifts to those who deserved to enjoy the Ancestral Temple in a hundred years. As long as he was not dead,

Political influence will not dissipate.

After Liu Jin returned to the palace, he inquired and learned that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had returned to the East Palace, so he turned around and went to the Wenhua Hall from the left gate next to the Wulong Bridge. He stood in front of the hall, straightened his sleeves and calmed his breath before entering.

Walking into the palace, I saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bending over the desk behind the desk to review memorials. Liu Jin stepped forward more than ten steps to bow down and salute and say hello. He only heard a voice, but Liu Jin did not move.

"My servant said something that I shouldn't have said in front of the general envoy. Please punish me, Your Highness!"

Zhu Biao ignored it, and there were clear and loud slaps from below, about five or six times, before Zhu Biao slowly looked up and said, "That's all."

Liu Jin's actions were within his expectation, and so were the reactions of Chen Youzong and others. He originally wanted to give Hu Weiyong a quiet time to develop, but now it seems that it is better to make some noise in the court, otherwise there will always be free time to go.

Make an idea that you shouldn’t make.

The slap marks on Liu Jin's face were clearly visible, but he seemed not to feel anything at all. He stood up naturally and walked to the side of his prince to study the ink.

"Tomorrow after the court, you will go to Yan's Mansion to visit on my behalf. By the way, the precious ginseng he has should be used up. You can take two more ginseng from Neibo and send them to him."

"promise."

"Does Chen Yunqing have any current position?"

"I remember that I was a member of the Ministry of Civil Affairs."

"kindness."

Zhu Biao has read more than ten memorials, all of which were made by the generals in the Beijing camp to impeach Jiang Yu for his actions today, and some even requested that he be punished and punished to restore his military power.

Of course, killing Jiang Gu is not an option. This person is quite easy to use, and most people already know about this matter. Saying that they will be severely punished is just to save face. People from the pro-military Duwei Mansion will never take their turn.

Let them decide what to do.

However, an explanation still had to be given. Jiang Yu could not stay in the capital. It happened that Zhu Biao was originally planning to send someone to Goryeo. The war had already begun, so he still had to send his confidants to take a look.

After all, Zhu Di was still young, and Li Chenggui and Naha were not really vegetarians. According to common sense, they would not be crazy enough to murder a Ming prince, but there is no shortage of cases in the world where smart people suddenly do stupid things.

It's not that Zhu Biao lacks a younger brother, but his father really can't let go of a son. It would be fine if he died in infancy. No matter what God's will is, he has already raised such a big boy. It's hard to let Lao Zhu taste it.

The grief of losing a child in middle age.
