Four hundred and eighty-two chapters strange Wuying Hall
Original title: The ministers in the Wuying Palace looked at you and I came on the stage after you sang. They were astonished and inexplicable, like clouds and mountains shrouded in mist, or like seeing flowers in the mist. (All, all in Wuyi. I want to
Why did Mr. Pengge drive away Chitose Guide? Why did the Queen Mother angrily leave the scene when Mr. Pengge didn't say anything serious? Is it a heart-breaking argument for Li You to angrily accuse Mr. Pengge? Why was Mr. Pengge's reaction so strange?
?
The ministers standing in the palace now are all figures who have been in the court for many years, and they can all realize that the confrontation must have happened in the darkness without seeing the light.
But they couldn't see clearly what was going on. They could only vaguely feel the flash of a sword and the shadow of a sword suddenly appeared. The afterimage disappeared again before anyone could catch it.
I can't even figure out who the two parties in the confrontation are. Could it be Li You and Peng Gelao, a pair of enemies?
Since it is so complicated and unclear, the only choice is to be cautious in words and deeds. Most people think so. This is the basic skill to stand in the temple without falling. In the court, we often encounter this kind of complete confusion.
At this time, every palace official must get used to this.
Only after Mr. Peng Ge made that bold inference, he suddenly felt that his mind was like a clear mirror, reflecting thousands of miles away, and all the previous doubts disappeared.
Looking at others who are still in a state of confusion, there is a faint sense of transcendence and self-satisfaction. This means that everyone is drunk and I am alone and awake.
Why has Li You behaved like a reckless young man with nothing but courage these days? Because he has no worries!
He is not a "pig-like teammate", he is simply a traitor among the courtiers! He deliberately proposed to seal the seal and gave the Queen Mother the opportunity to bring the situation to a dead end. Otherwise, the Queen Mother would have no excuse to throw out the seal and destroy all the courtiers.
military!
Queen Mother Qian did not lose her mind because of her anger. She also deliberately added fuel to the flames again and again, echoing Li Youyao! Until the end, they defeated each other and it became a dead end!
As a result of this situation, Li You gained fame and Queen Mother Qian gained benefits!
The bunch of random edicts issued by Cisheng Palace in recent days would not have been passed in normal times. Now we are facing a huge political crisis. In order to reach a compromise as soon as possible, the courtiers may have to make selective concessions to make those
Some imperial edicts were passed.
The Queen Mother will only make mistakes, not crimes. No matter what happens afterwards, no one can hold her accountable according to the law and the ancestral system.
Others would never think of this, and only Mr. Peng Ge, who was not afraid to speculate on Li You with the greatest malice from beginning to end, could have such a profound association.
Next, what Peng Ge Lao has to consider is how to expose Li You's true face in front of the ministers, who openly spoke out and actually secretly helped the Queen Mother.
However, this matter is really bizarre. In the eyes of everyone, Li You and the Queen Mother were at odds with each other. They were almost incompatible with each other. How could they cooperate with each other?
Moreover, Li You's image is at its peak right now, and he is a hero in everyone's hearts. To rashly point out the darkness of Li You's collusion in the palace will only make people unbelievable, as if he is slandering him out of thin air.
In this place, evidence is often a joke. People never need evidence to think about problems, but there must always be traces to follow in order for people to reach a consensus, so we must first find the traces.
Mr. Peng Ge wondered about Li You, and at the same time Li You was also thinking secretly. Seeing that Mr. Peng Ge had been very active just now. Did he see something? He had nothing to do with him today, and he had no plans for him, but he
If he had to jump out to disrupt the situation, could it be that he was doing it on purpose?
We can't give him a chance to continue to think about it, otherwise the consequences will be endless! I would rather believe that he is there than believe that he is not, and I would rather kill the wrong person than let it go! It turns out that today has nothing to do with Mr. Peng Ge, but Mr. Peng Ge himself has to come forward...
Li You thought for a while and came up with an idea. His strength lies in his speed. He immediately interrupted Peng Chunshi's thoughts, "Mr. Peng Ge, you have inappropriate words and deeds, so you should go out of your way to ask for forgiveness and bring the Holy Mother back! Otherwise, how will it end today?"
Yang Jin, the great scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, frowned and said: "Who can enter Cisheng Palace without being summoned? What can be done?"
Wenhua Hall, Wuying Hall and the surrounding buildings are located on the outermost floor of the palace. It is more convenient for courtiers to enter. However, Cisheng Palace, where the Queen Mother lives, is on the inner floor. Where can foreign ministers get in? The only way to convey messages is to rely on time.
A very unreliable internal supervisor.
Thinking of this, everyone suddenly remembered that there was a more reliable Princess Guide... but His Highness Chitose had already been driven away by Mr. Peng Ge's words.
Li You took the opportunity and said to Mr. Peng Ge again: "It's not long now, so the eldest princess must not be far away. We still have to work hard for Mr. Peng Ge to invite Guide Qiantai to return to the palace again."
Mr. Peng Ge was very hesitant in his heart. Just now he drove the eldest princess away without politeness, and now he took the initiative to invite her back. This was too embarrassing.
Xu Shoufu came to Peng Chunshi's rescue and said: "It's enough to ask a few people to invite him. Why bother with Mr. Peng Ge?"
Li You said sternly: "What you said is wrong. The eldest princess, Her Royal Highness Chitose, is the daughter of the former emperor and the eldest sister of the emperor's compatriot. She has a noble status. How can I be allowed to drink it and call it back at will? Let outsiders see it and just laugh at me.
Wait for the courtiers to be arrogant and ignorant of etiquette! Mr. Peng Ge will have to go there in person!"
Mr. Peng Ge had no choice but to leave the palace because he was crowded. Just as he was about to greet some people, he quickly went to stop Princess Guide, but he saw a Luan Yu parked under the Guiji Gate from a distance.
The number of people who are qualified to ride in the palace can be counted on the palm of a hand. It is estimated that Princess Guide, who is keen on government affairs, did not go far and stopped there to wait for news.
Old Peng Ge has a little more heart. First, he doesn't have to travel far to catch up. Second, Guide Chitose is so enthusiastic that he will definitely be interested in coming back to participate, so he doesn't have to worry about failure.
Mr. Peng Ge was regarded as the prime minister and assistant, and the emperor had to call him "sir" when he saw him. No matter what, he could not lower his stature too much. He stepped forward and said a few words, and Guide Qiansui happily agreed, and then drove to Ci.
Head towards the Holy Palace.
There was silence in Wuying Hall, and the atmosphere was even more depressing than before. Peng Gelao's return did not change the situation, and everyone was silent and thoughtful.
Time has gradually entered Shenshi. Normally, it would be the end of the day's work. But now, about twenty courtiers were standing quietly in Wuying Hall, and more than seventy courtiers were waiting for the result outside the Meridian Gate.
The palace doors will be locked when it gets dark, and if the problem is not solved, the imperial seal, which symbolizes the emperor's imperial power, will stay outside the palace overnight.
Everyone who participated in today's big remonstrance discussion has some concerns about gains and losses.
On the one hand, they dared to remonstrate and seal the seal, forcing the Queen Mother to use the seal to control her anger, which brought their collective glory. In recent decades, has there ever been a moment that showed the character of a scholar? It is enough to be recorded in the annals of history.
Pen! And their famous generals are listed with the sages. By the way, they will make a list of major remonstrance issues later!
On the other hand, if something really goes wrong with Baoxi, there is a fly in the ointment...
After waiting for another half an hour, the eunuch put up the golden screen again, and behind the bead curtain, the Queen Mother once again ascended the throne.
Mr. Peng Ge knew that it might be a good thing that time was tight. After the ceremony, he came out to apologize for his "inappropriate words". At this time, he did not dare to say anything to support the scene. If the Queen Mother got angry and left again, it would be really reasonable.
Can't tell clearly.
Then the voice changed, and Peng Ge repeated his old words: "The seal is an important weapon of the country. It must not be ignored. Please ask the Holy Lord to take the seal back to the palace. Li You, the imperial envoy of the right Qiandu, checked Li Youyu's false statement, which caused the
Baoxi has left the palace, please demote Yunnan to the position of Yi Cheng!"
We still have to follow the old practice. Under normal circumstances, in order for the monarch and his ministers to unite, the "big brother who takes the lead" must give him the honor of seeking benevolence and getting benevolence... No one can accuse the public of avenging private revenge.
Peng Ge Lao could conclude that if he did not appeal in this way, Li You would probably come forward to plead guilty according to some pre-prepared scripts, and his words would be clever and novel, both thought-provoking and touching, and also have profound meaning.
It makes sense. With Li You's eloquence, it is not difficult to do this.
Then the empress dowager Sheng Ming was touched and repented, and Princess Guide also came forward to mediate vigorously. In the end, the emperor and his ministers reconciled, and everyone was happy.
This process will seem to be very smooth, reasonable, and natural. The script must have been carefully prepared in advance so that no one will see any flaws.
Therefore, Peng Gelao wanted to be the first to ask for severe punishment for Li You, blocking Li You's opportunity to perform his affectionate confession.
Even if Li You stands up and continues to perform later, with his own punishment first, the effect of Li You's affectionate performance will be much worse, and many subsequent actions will appear stiff and difficult. Besides, he is not a vegetarian, and he has taken the initiative.
.It is not difficult to continue to force out flaws by using the tricks at your fingertips.
In everyone's impression, the Queen Mother hated Li You so much that she could gnash her teeth. In order to let the Queen Mother calm down, the great scholar of the current court provided a plan to deal with Li You heavily. Moreover, this plan was in line with traditional concepts and practices and would not cause rebellion among the ministers.
.Then of course the Queen Mother would immediately play the music accurately without any hesitation.
If the Queen Mother suddenly turned 180 degrees and suddenly forgave Li You, that would be strange and thought-provoking.
This is the purpose of Peng Ge Lao's interruption. There are always some smart people in the palace, how can we not see the clues? As mentioned before, in order to win people's trust in this place, evidence is not important, but there must be traces. If Li You
There are so many traces of gouge between you and the Queen Mother, how can you hide it from the public eye?
Moreover, as a bachelor who has been in the cabinet for more than ten years, Mr. Peng Ge has his own understanding of the emperor's thoughts. For someone as close to an emperor as Queen Mother Qian, his behavior is different from usual.
Take walking down the steps as an example. Ordinary people may be willing to step down if there is a step, but if they don’t want to lose face, they will not do it. But for the emperor who is said to be aloof, the monarch’s power is not only about face, but also represents power. He must not lose it. The steps are not only
There must be one, and it must be good. If there is no good step, then I would rather not go down.
Preemptively asking Li You to be dealt with harshly is equivalent to demolishing the step. Even if it cannot be demolished, it can still be smashed. If the Empress Dowager Qian forcibly descends the step to forgive Li You, it will be tantamount to exposing a flaw and arousing suspicion; if the Empress Dowager Qian does not
If you are willing to step down, it’s time for Li You to go to Yunnan.
I don’t know how many times Mr. Peng Ge glanced at Li You out of the corner of his eye. Today is the time for him to understand what "Thunder, rain and dew are all your kindness"! But I don’t know how the Queen Mother will choose? Will it be rain, dew or thunder?
He secretly recollected his move and felt that it was indeed very exquisite and the accuracy of it was extremely rare. It seemed ordinary and boring, lacking in ornamental value, but it had a somewhat light-weight, skillful and unworked feel, with almost no trace of fireworks.
I also remembered that I had never experienced this kind of feeling when fighting against Li You before, and upon reflection, I was indeed inferior. In these seventy years, it is really gratifying to be able to reach a higher level. It seems that from a certain angle,
I have to thank Li You for making progress in cultivation.
Li You slowly walked up to Mr. Peng Ge, with a pitiful expression on his face, and sighed: "Mr. Peng Ge, don't let your eyes be blinded by hatred."
Mr. Peng Ge was baffled by this, and it was so strange that Li You suddenly said this!
Li You turned around and said to the Queen Mother: "I'm asking you to drive Mr. Peng Ge out of the palace, otherwise we can't continue today. In order to preserve the dignity of the Prime Minister and Fu, I will hide the reason."
Peng Chunshi sneered a few times, Li You's invitation was too childish. He was a bachelor of Wuying Palace who entered Zhiwenyuan Pavilion. He was the most senior prime minister at present. Why should he not be able to predict the affairs of the government? What reason did Li You have to drive him away from Wuying?
temple?
Are you trying to jump over the wall, even to tear off the skin, and blatantly join forces with the Queen Mother? Who knows that you will die faster this way, how can many ministers in the palace be blind and deaf, letting you do whatever you want?
At this time, if the person being impeached is very particular, he usually does not go out to defend himself. Just like Mr. Peng Ge impeached Li You just now, Li You remained silent. This defense task is usually left to his colleagues and subordinates, and of course there are often
People who see injustice and draw their swords to help.
Therefore, Mr. Peng Ge was not in a hurry to come forward and casually glanced around the palace. Li You was so cowardly that someone should have noticed the situation. This was a perfect opportunity, but he didn't know who to gain advantage in gaining reputation.
However, he found that everyone was looking at the nose and the nose, and turned a deaf ear to Li You's words, including the two chief censors he had promoted, and Xu Shoufu was no exception.
Mr. Peng Ge was a little surprised. After waiting for a long time, no one came forward to speak for him. It seemed that everyone agreed with what Li You said... He gradually turned from surprise to horror. If this continues, Li You's words will become a public discussion among the ministers. He
He's really going to be kicked out!
What's going on? Why doesn't anyone stand up? He, Li You, is just a fifth-rank official. Is he so scary? If others are afraid, that's all. Why is Xu Yue, the dignified chief minister, motionless?
Since the Empress Dowager took office as regent, it has been ten years since the Wenhua Hall, the emperor's private palace, was inconvenient to use, and the Wuying Hall was used as a meeting place.
Mr. Peng Ge has been a regular customer of Wuying Hall since the earliest days, but he has never encountered such a strange atmosphere in Wuying Hall. It is as if all the familiar people have turned into strangers. Occasionally, if someone looks up at him, then
There is also an indescribable taste in the eyes...
Obviously I am the one who understands the most, but now it seems that I am the one who understands the least? What happened?
Mr. Peng Ge suddenly shuddered. Could it be that Li You knew the magic and performed the magic in Wuying Hall, confusing people's hearts? To be continued
