Chapter 1020: The Old Case Triggered by the Token
"Weichen saw the emperor, disturbed the emperor's rest, and hoped that the emperor would forgive him." Shen Yan and Xu Sanyuan and Xiao Anzi chatted with each other, time passed quickly, half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, the emperor heard Shen Yan and Xu Sanyuan chatting, so he let Shen Yan and Xu Sanyuan in, Shen Yan saw that although the emperor was a little sleepy-eyed, but the spirit was obviously good, a sincere smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said to the emperor.
"You've disturbed my rest, and even if I punish you, I won't be able to make up for my rest." Hearing Shen Yan's words, Xia Qi, who was originally in a good mood, became in a better mood, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he glanced at Shen Yan indifferently, and said softly.
"Say, when you come to me at this time, you must have something very important to tell me, while I am in a good mood at the moment, you can talk about it." After Xia Qi finished speaking, he glanced at Shen Yan indifferently, with his understanding of Shen Yan, Shen Yan was definitely the kind of person who would not go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, so Shen Yan must have something very important to tell him when he entered the palace this time.
"If the matter is very important, you can completely wake up Xu Sanyuan and I, state affairs are far more important than my rest."
"Wechen didn't dare to agree with the emperor's words, in Wechen's heart, the emperor's body is more important than state affairs, no matter how urgent state affairs are, someone will deal with them, and once the emperor's body is exhausted, it will affect the operation of the entire Great Xia, and many key things cannot be made, which may cause a major negative impact." When he heard the emperor say that state affairs were more important than rest, the corners of Shen Yan's mouth raised slightly, and a faint smile appeared, with a trace of sincerity and a hint of argumentation, and said loudly.
"I knew that I would definitely be refuted by you when I said these words, and sure enough, as soon as my words fell, you were anxious to overturn my words, Shen Yan, you went to Huaibei County, and your courage became greater than before." Hearing Shen Yan's words, the corners of Xia Qi's mouth smiled slightly, and a warm current suddenly flowed in his heart, Shen Yan really cared about himself, it was really a good situation to have such a confidant courtier, but in the face of Shen Yan, Xia Qi felt that he couldn't be too good to him, otherwise Shen Yan would definitely climb up the bamboo pole, so although Xia Qi was a little relieved in his heart, he still counted Shen Yan on his lips.
"Weichen's courage was given by the emperor." Shen Yan seemed to be able to feel the emperor's mood, so an indifferent smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he was not afraid of the emperor's words at all.
"Alright, don't beat me around the bush, let's talk about your subject." The corners of Xia Qi's mouth smiled faintly, raised his arm slightly, and felt a little good in his heart, curious about what kind of shocking or surprising news Shen Yan would bring to him this time.
"Your Majesty, before Weichen speaks, I hope the emperor will take a look at this token in Weichen's hand." Shen Yan paused when he said this, a brief hesitation flashed in his eyes, but then he thought in his mind that the matter had reached the situation in front of him, and he had nothing to hesitate about, no matter what kind of mentality the emperor had about the affairs of the eldest princess's concubine mansion back then, he entered the palace this time to properly solve this old case, otherwise, it would be a bad result or impact on the emperor for the eldest princess who had passed away, for the eldest princess who was still in the depths of the palace, and for Zhen Xuansang, who had taken refuge in him.
As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if. He must strangle any possible signs in the cradle, otherwise he will really become a loner, what will he use to realize his dreams, what to lay out for the future of the Ye family, what to use for those comrades-in-arms who work for him to seek a future, and what to fight with the world.
It is precisely because of these considerations, coupled with the new changes that have taken place in Shengjing City, that Ye Zhiqiu will give Xu Chengzong, Yuan Shifeng and others a wake-up call on the front line.
"It seems that Li Chenglin has already occupied a political advantage, how should this battle be fought next? Siege of Shengjing City? Or bypass Shengjing City, order the army to march to the eastern part of the empire, and take Li Chenglin's lair in one fell swoop? β
"Will Lee Sung-ming lose confidence and fighting spirit because of the Empress Dowager's coup d'Γ©tat? If the situation is as you expected, is it necessary for you to continue the civil war? And what reason is there to continue to start a civil war, after all, if the name is not right, it is not good. β
"If things are not as I imagined, Li Chengming still has confidence and fighting spirit, which is a great joy for him to continue to wage a civil war, and then he will re-support Li Chengming to ascend to the throne, for this reason, he may use some hidden forces."
"However, all this is still to be determined whether the father-in-law has the ability to successfully rescue the emperor."
This is a low profile as a human minister, a low profile that must be had.
A low profile is to show Li Chengming an attitude, an attitude of recognizing Li Chengming, and an attitude of gaining Li Chengming's trust, otherwise, even if he will give himself military power, he will definitely not be willing, and he will even restrain himself, and this is exactly what he needs.
In fact, Ye Zhiqiu understands the thoughts in Li Chengming's heart, after three years of political career and this failure, Li Chengming has become more mature, you know, with Li Chengming's previous life, he will not be like this, let alone so, after all, in his mind, Li Chengming has always been the emperor and the master of the empire.
Jealousy is a common problem that everyone has, but there are people who are good at hiding, no, to be exact, they are good at controlling the jealousy in their hearts; Others, however, become slaves to envy and are controlled by the jealousy in their hearts.
Of course, in the future officialdom of the empire, who will control jealousy or become slaves of jealousy, or who will be jealous of themselves, these are not things that you can expect or consider at the moment, what you have to do is to use this platform to implement the deployment that you have already planned in your heart.
Of course, his official position did break the tradition of the empire, and it reached a peak, and before the end of the civil war, these could make him act cheaply and sit comfortably. What awaits him will be the attack on himself by the hundreds of officials in the court, and if Li Chengming can't correct his mentality, it will be an out-and-out disaster to take what is waiting for him.
No matter how big the official position is, even if he has made great contributions to the empire, if he does not have the corresponding title, it is difficult to enter the upper echelons of the empire, let alone obtain the recognition of the nobles of the empire, which is the tradition of the empire.
It's really cool to be a hands-off shopkeeper, but not everyone can be a hands-off shopkeeper!
