Chapter 875: Each Has His Own Plan
Although Yu Peizhong tried his best to cover up the news, the news of the emperor's fall still spread outside the palace.
Of course, the scope of this spread is very small, and only the bigwigs in the court know about it.
Among them, including Zhu Xiulin, the eighth prince.
Standing in the study, Zhu Xiulin was wearing a robe and preparing to enter the palace to visit his father.
During this period of time, Zhu Xiulin's days have been extremely moist.
After Zhu Xiuyin was forcibly ordered to become a vassal, now he is only waiting to be canonized as the crown prince, so he is very grateful to the emperor's father.
Suddenly learned that his father had fallen, and he was naturally worried in his heart. On the one hand, there is a deep relationship between father and son, and on the other hand, he is afraid that something will happen to his canonization.
So now, Zhu Xiulin is impatient to enter the palace and find out what the emperor's situation is.
Standing in front of the bronze mirror, Zhu Xiulin was full of annoyance and said, "Hurry up!" ”
The maidservants were reprimanded and complained bitterly, so they could only try to move as much as possible.
After cleaning up, the carriage on King Wu's mansion was already ready, so Zhu Xiulin took the carriage and rushed to the direction of the imperial city.
When Zhu Xiulin set off to visit the emperor, the bigwigs of the court and China, who learned that the emperor was unconscious after falling, also discussed with each other behind closed doors.
There are constant disputes in the court these days, but they are all middle- and lower-level officials running, and the big officials such as Shilang Shangshu are watching from the background coldly.
In the west side hall of the cabinet, Huang Yucheng, the first assistant, sat in the hall today, and he was the one who learned the news relatively early.
At this moment, in the West Side Palace, all the high-level leaders of the Yellow Party were present, and their expressions were solemn.
"Everyone, the emperor fell, Yu Peizhong suppressed the news, and blocked the Yuxu Palace, thinking that the emperor's situation is very bad!" Huang Yucheng sat in the top position, and his voice became low.
Recently, the emperor severely suppressed the Qin party, and it was the most comfortable time for the people in the Yellow party. All this was given by the emperor, and they all deeply regretted that the emperor had fallen unconscious.
Why pity? Because the Qin Party has not been killed, and the sixth prince Zhu Xiuyin is still in Gyeonggi, it is not too late for the emperor to finish these things and then fall.
That's right, the Qin Party was severely suppressed, but it was not to the point of real vitality, and they united with the court neutrals, so the advantage over the Yellow Party still existed.
Don't look at these days, Qin Yanwen has only pleaded for Zhu Xiuyin, and his henchmen have contacted the neutrals, but they haven't stopped for a day.
"Yes, I only hope that the emperor will be healthy and recover soon!" Zhang Yunde, the head of the household, said.
The others were about to express their opinions, but they heard Huang Yucheng say in a solemn tone: "Of course, we have to pray for the emperor's speedy recovery, but everyone...... We should also prepare for extreme situations! ”
What did this mean, everyone didn't figure it out, but after a few breaths of silence on the scene, they understood what Huang Yucheng meant.
"Elder Ge, it's not that urgent, is it?" Wang Sihai, the secretary of the military department, hesitated.
Could it be that just because the emperor fell, he had to prepare for a change of dynasty?
In fact, Wang Sihai is not the only one who thinks like this, but everyone else present also has the same attitude.
After all, the emperor has always been like a mountain in their hearts, overwhelming them.
Therefore, no one will suddenly change sex, and feel that the emperor will not be able to fall down, so it is naturally difficult to agree with Huang Yucheng's statement.
"There's always nothing wrong with a little more preparation!" Huang Yucheng said solemnly.
In fact, Huang Yucheng's thoughts are not so firm, and the shadow brought to him by the emperor also exists.
But Huang Yucheng still added: "Lord Wang, you are in charge of the army...... Keep an eye out for the movements of the Gyeonggi garrison! ”
Although the military department is related to the army, the power to command the army is in the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, so you can only pay attention to its movements.
The Governor's Office of the Five Armed Forces is controlled by the Xungui clique and has never been involved in party and political disputes, but it is a vital force.
"Pavilion ......"
Wang Sihai was just about to speak, but Huang Yucheng raised his head to stop him, and said at the same time: "None of us can afford to lose!" ”
This is the big truth, those who lose are likely to be liquidated, and then it will be a catastrophe of destroying the family and the family.
Just then, there was a knock on the door outside the room.
"Who?"
"Ge Lao, it's me!"
The person who came was Huang Yucheng's henchmen and officials.
"What's the matter?" Huang Yucheng asked.
"Just now, His Royal Highness King Wu entered the palace!"
"Got it, you go down!"
After this person left, Huang Yucheng spoke: "Everyone, let's also go to Yuxu Palace now, and meet the emperor with His Royal Highness King Wu!" ”
Huang Yucheng's proposal was approved by everyone, and now it is imperative to grasp the emperor's physical condition first.
They discussed behind closed doors, and on the other side of the capital, Qin Yanwen's mansion was also very lively.
Although the Qin Party was defeated, its henchmen still existed, and they were all gathered in the study of the Qin Mansion at this moment.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor is unconscious, and Yu Peizhong has also closed the news, which is extremely bad for us!"
Putting down the teacup in his hand, Qin Yanwen continued: "If the emperor really has an accident...... Who should inherit the throne? ”
Compared with Huang Yucheng, Qin Yanwen said this more bluntly.
He was originally a cautious person, and the reason why he said this was entirely because the Qin Party had been severely suppressed recently, and many things were not so taboo.
At this time, outside the study, I remembered the butler's voice and said, "Master, the following people just came to the news, saying that King Wu has entered the palace!" ”
"Got it, you step down!" Qin Yanwen said in a deep voice.
"Hear me, guys? King Wu has entered the palace, let's not do something again, Zhou Houcheng and Pei Yuanxin will be our end! ”
Qin Yanwen's words made the hearts of everyone present tighten.
If it weren't for the emperor falling, then the hottest topic now is undoubtedly the killing of Zhou Pei's family.
"Elder Ge, you say...... What to do? Gao Pei, the squire of the military department, asked.
After Sun Xuezhen and the three were dismissed, Gao Pei's status was undoubtedly improved, and he was the first to ask questions at this moment.
"First, we have to inform His Highness Sixth of this matter and welcome him back to Beijing!"
It's easy to say, but it's not ordinarily difficult.
Zhu Xiuyin was strictly ordered by the emperor to go to the domain, and there were many obstacles to coming back. But this must also be done, and if they can't do it, they will inevitably lose.
"Second, let out the rumors, let the people below stare at the death of Zhou Pei and the others, and prevent Huang Yucheng from making a trick or even jumping off the wall in a hurry!"
Not taking it back now is undoubtedly the result of extreme stupidity.
"Third, contact more people of insight in the court, so that they can prepare to welcome His Royal Highness Six back to Beijing!"
The reason why he was preparing to go up was because Qin Yanwen was not sure what the emperor's situation was now.
"Finally...... Keep an eye out for troop movements in the Gyeonggi area! ”
At any given time, the movement of the army is extremely important and an important weight related to victory or defeat.
In a short period of time, Qin Yanwen put forward four suggestions, all of which grasped the key.
This is the politician who has been in power for nearly a decade, standing firm in the face of great storms and waves, and always planning to win.
"Everyone, these things must be arranged as soon as possible!"
After saying this, Qin Yanwen stood up: "But now, let's also go into the palace to visit the emperor!" ”
They must not be absent from visiting the emperor.
Now that Zhu Xiuyin is not here, once the emperor really has something, wouldn't Zhu Xiulin say anything!
