Seeing Niu Fude and Ouyang Bo's serious expressions, Zhao Junchen's expressions also became serious, and he asked, "The two of them came together, but what happened?" ”

Niu Fude said: "My lord, I just received the news that because of your punishment of Guo Tang, Guo Tang went to the East Palace with many Qingliu officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate this afternoon to seek support from the crown prince. The sub-party's everyone is excited, and the prince is unable to disobey the will of the people, and now he has agreed to Guo Tang's request and intends to defend Guo Tang.

On the other side, Ouyang Bo also said: "Just now, the prince sent people to Shuntian Mansion and Guozijian to specifically inquire about the arrest of Guo Min by Shuntianfu and the removal of Guo Mingtai from Guozijian. ”

After listening to Niu Fude and Ouyang Bo's explanations, a trace of surprise flashed on Zhao Junchen's face.

The arrest of Guo Min by Shuntianfu and the removal of Guo Mingtai by Guozijian are of course led by Zhao Junchen behind the scenes, but these two things have a factual basis to follow, and they are not wronged Guo Min and Guo Mingtai, and the character of the prince Zhu and Yu has always been upright, and he has always been official, and he has never been favoritism, Zhao Junchen originally thought that after the prince Zhu and Yu knew the reason for the matter, they would never help Guo Tang.

Therefore, Zhao Junchen's punishment of Guo Tang this time was just for Guo Tang alone, and he originally had no idea of fighting with the crown prince Zhu and Yu.

In fact, Zhao Junchen plans to destroy Guo Tang, and in a way, he is still helping the crown prince Zhu Heyu, otherwise with the existence of Guo Tang, the influence of the crown prince Zhu and Yu will be gradually replaced by the seventh prince Zhu Hejian!

But now it seems that Zhao Junchen has miscalculated two things.

First, Zhao Junchen underestimated Guo Tang's methods, but he didn't expect that Guo Tang would use public opinion to force the crown prince Zhu and Yu to help him fight against Zhao Junchen.

Second, Zhao Junchen ignored the progress of the crown prince Zhu and Yu, but he didn't expect that the prince Zhu and Yu also learned to judge the situation and know that it is difficult to disobey the will of the people and protect themselves for personal gain. If it is according to the former temperament of the prince Zhu and Yu, he will definitely do business at this time, and he will never shelter Guo Tang in these matters, obviously Zhao Shancai's guidance and education of the prince Zhu and Yu during this period of time is still effective.

In fact, in Zhao Junchen's view, "protecting the short" is a determinatory term, but it is also a necessary quality for successful people, as a leader, you can only learn to protect the shortcomings, in order to be able to buy people's hearts, in order to get the support and support of the people around you. On the contrary, words such as "selflessness" and "righteousness to destroy relatives" are all praises, and are even praised and praised by the world, but such a character seems noble, but it will only make the people around them stay away and dare not approach.

In the past, the failure of the crown prince Zhu and Yu was that he was too selfless and never knew the truth of favoritism, so he only got the support of the Qinglius, but none of the major factions in the court had the intention of supporting him.

It's a pity that the progress of the crown prince Zhu Heyu came too late, and Emperor Deqing has now made up his mind to depose him, and such a little progress may not shake Emperor Deqing's determination.

In addition, the timing of the crown prince Zhu and Yu to protect the short is not right, he chose to protect the short at this time, and he will inevitably fight with Zhao Junchen, but he is by no means Zhao Junchen's opponent, and in the end, he will only end up in shame because of his own short protection, and the original virtuous name will also suffer.

Perhaps, the matter of the crown prince Zhu and Yu favoritism to protect the young master Guo Tang will also become one of the reasons for Emperor Deqing to depose him in the future......

Thinking of this, Zhao Junchen shook his head and sighed lightly, and said: "It seems that this matter is a mistake in my judgment, I didn't expect that this matter would involve the prince, Guo Tang is smarter than I imagined, and he actually knows how to use public opinion to force the prince to protect himself...... It's just that Guo Tang's approach is afraid that he will harm the prince because of his own selfishness! ”

Zhao Junchen said "mistake", but his expression was still relaxed and abnormal, and he did not show any worries about the matter of the crown prince Zhu and Yu fighting in the ring with him.

At the beginning, the crown prince Zhu and Yu received the secret support of Emperor Deqing, and he never bargained in the hands of Zhao Junchen, and now that Emperor Deqing has given up on the crown prince Zhu and Yu, then he is not Zhao Junchen's opponent.

However, Zhu Heyu was the prince after all, so after Niu Fude and Ouyang Bo received the news, they were still a little worried.

Therefore, Niu Fude couldn't help but remind: "My lord, if the prince takes care of Guo Tang, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult for you to punish Guo Tang. In the event of a fierce conflict between the sub-parties, it is better to prepare for this matter in advance. ”

On the other side, Ouyang Bo suggested: "My lord, do you want to send someone to inform Elder Zuo Ge and Chen Shangshu that they know the news?" Wait until tomorrow morning to face up, with 'too. When the sub-parties are competing against each other, our people can also be prepared. ”

Zhao Junchen shook his head and said: "No need, although this matter is deliberately targeted by me against Guo Tang, it is our reason after all!" Even if it is asked by His Majesty tomorrow morning, we don't have anything to worry about, as long as we do business in accordance with the laws and regulations of the imperial court! Once this matter becomes a big problem, it will not be us who will suffer, and maybe it will be our chance to crack down on those clear streams! ”

Speaking of this, a trace of thought flashed in Zhao Junchen's eyes.

Relatively speaking, Zhao Junchen was actually more worried that Guo Tang would ask the Seventh Prince Zhu Hejian for help, although the influence of the Seventh Prince Zhu Hejian in the previous dynasty was not large, but he had always been scheming and ruthless, if the Seventh Prince Zhu He was determined to protect Guo Tang, then it would be difficult for anyone to guess what kind of means he would use.

However, the matter of the Seventh Prince Zhu Hejian is still confidential, and Zhao Junchen has not told several of his staff, so he will not explain his worries at this time.

What's more, according to Zhao Junchen's understanding of the Seventh Prince Zhu Heyu, this person is a ruthless person, and he may not risk offending Zhao Junchen to help Guo Tang at this time. Once Guo Tang falls, the seventh prince Zhu Hejian will lose a lot of benefits, and it will be much more difficult for him to get Qingliu's support in the future, but for the seventh prince Zhu Hejian, offending Zhao Junchen is something he is even more unwilling to accept.

On the other side, hearing Zhao Junchen's explanation, Niu Fude and Ouyang Bo thought for a while, and they both agreed with Zhao Junchen's judgment.

Then, after discussing some things about "Jingcha" with Zhao Junchen, the two of them all said goodbye and left.

It's just that Zhao Junchen's study was quite lively on this day, Niu Fude and Ouyang Bo had just left, and Fang Ru entered the room again, holding a book of poetry in his hand, his expression faintly excited.

Well, the second update!
