Chapter 91: Take sides
(The third watch of the power is coming!) When have you ever seen me three times in a row! What about the red ticket, today's goal: the red ticket will not break 12,000 and vow not to give up! )
The general trend of Jiangning has been decided, and the next step is to pass on the edict of Pegasus to inform the world.
At this time, the local authorities had missed the opportunity to persuade the table, and could only congratulate the table and recognize the status of the new emperor and the center of Jiangning. Whoever insists on not expressing his position at this time will either rely on his strong power and use the greeting watch as a bargaining chip, or he will have different ambitions and wait for Jiangning to send troops to fight......
Although the edict of the founding emperor was not drafted until the night of the 6th, well-informed people such as Deng Yu, Dong Yuan, Meng Yishan, Chen Huawen, and others sent envoys to Jiangning to present congratulatory notices in the early morning of the 7th.
Although it is not as good as the work of supporting the establishment, when the new emperor ascends the throne, he always has to give amnesty to the world to express his heart, and if he still has grievances, he complains that they do not have the strength of Huaidong.
Of course, before that, no one dared to easily hand in the table first, in case of wrong feelings, the gain outweighed the loss by liquidating it in advance. Even if everyone thinks that in the end, only King Ning can be the emperor, and this kind of thing is persuaded to be senior.
Dong Yuan, Deng Yu and others, on the surface, must be counted as Yue Lengqiu's lineage, so they can't pass Yue Lengqiu and pass the persuasion table first.
Chen Huawen, Meng Yishan and others, on the surface, must be regarded as the Wu Party line, so they can't go beyond Chen Xiyan and Yu Xinyuan to persuade them to enter the table alone.
Lin Jian and Lin Xuwen crossed Gu Wuchen's persuasion and won the first credit, even if all parties tried their best to conceal the affairs of the Empress Dowager Liang and King Lu, the discerning people in the officialdom also knew that Lin Gu broke openly due to some unknown factor.
Gu Wuchen and Lin Jian are teachers and students, Weng son-in-law, and the two core figures of the Dongyang system, which was originally a beautiful talk in Jiangning, and the blatant break between the teacher and student and Weng son-in-law, whether it is Emperor Chongguan who died in the water, King Ning who supported the new emperor, and Jiangning will become the emperor's capital.
Within the Dongyang Township Party, the break between Lin Jian and Gu Wuchen was even more eye-catching than the new emperor's accession to the throne, which involved the issue of standing in line within the Dongyang Department.
As a temporary auxiliary minister, Lin Xuwen had to participate in the discussion of many major events such as the funeral, the new emperor's accession to the throne, the establishment of the capital, the establishment of the national system, and the determination of the year number, and the determination of this core policy must only be discussed in the palace of King Ning and unanimously approved by King Ning and others before the final decision can be made.
From the afternoon of the 5th, when he secretly returned to Jiangning, Lin Xuwen did not close his eyes for 24 hours, and it was not until the afternoon of the 7th that he left King Ning's Mansion with his tired body and returned to his residence.
Although he was tired, but things could be solved so smoothly and quickly, Lin Xuwen was very excited.
For Lin Xuwen, Jiang Ning is familiar and unfamiliar.
Before Lin Xuwen raised his son in the examination, he lived in Jiangning for a long time, and he did not do less to usher in rewards and prostitutes and concubines. After passing the exam, he went to Yanjing to prepare for the exam, and lived in Yanjing for nearly four years before he was admitted to the Jinshi. After that, he was an official in Beijing for nearly ten years and served in Jinhai for three years. Counting back and forth, it has been almost seventeen years since he left Jiangning and not returned.
was once a merry young man, but now a middle-aged man with sparse hair, how can Lin Xuwen not be emotional?
The residence arranged by Sun Wenbing for Lin Xuwen was also Lin Xuwen's former residence in Jiangning. After Lin Xuwen left Jiangning, Lin Mengde moved in with his family; Lin Mengde went to Chongzhou, and this mansion was empty here.
Compared with Lin Xuwen's identity who is about to pay homage to the prime minister, this house seems small, old, and not spacious enough, Sun Wenbing waited for Lin Xuwen to get out of the car, and saw that Lin Xuwen looked at the handwriting on the courtyard door with some mottled doors, and said: "If the eldest prince misses the old, he will buy the courtyards on the left and right sides another day, and open up the ......."
"Don't be so troublesome, it's good to live in such a spacious place...... Lin Xuwen said, King Lining is the emperor, it can only be said that the overall situation is temporarily stabilized, and there will be no less intrigue and ups and downs behind it, in addition to taking care of the people who live there, there is no need to move dozens of people with small families and children to Jiangning, such a large yard is enough.
"The eldest prince said that it was so good," Sun Wenbing said, "The third prince has sent someone over and run several times, do you want to send someone over to tell him that you are back?" ”
Sun Wenbing is talking about Lin Tingli's eldest son, Lin Xulu. Suddenly such a great change, the Dongyang Township Party is like ants on a hot pot, and I don't know what happened to Lin Jian and Gu Wuchen to the clan to openly break up. Lin Xulu, who knew the truth of the matter, was even more disrupted and at a loss, and many things could only be discussed with Lin Xuwen, but Lin Xuwen must stay in King Ning's mansion to discuss the new emperor's accession to the throne and other matters.
"The third child!" Lin Xuwen frowned slightly, Dongyang is closest to Jiangning, even if Dongyang is not informed here, Dongyang should have handed the congratulatory watch to Jiangning before Dong Yuan and Meng Yishan - Dongyang has not moved at this time, which means that his second uncle Lin Tingli told Gu Wuchen before that he was moved and wanted to participate in the establishment of the new emperor, but now I am afraid that he will be confused and confused!
Lin Xuwen sighed lightly and said to Sun Wenbing: "You send someone to invite the third child over." ”
Sun Wenbing was Huaidong's liaison in Jiangning before, and was responsible for the affairs of Jiyun Society in Jiangning. After Lin Xuwen arrived in Jiangning, Sun Wenbing was naturally Lin Xuwen's first assistant.
Sun Wenbing sent everyone to inform Lin Xulu, and he accompanied Lin Xuwen into the house. In the blink of an eye, Lin Xulu chased in from behind, and did not shy away from Sun Wenbing's presence, and asked Lin Xuwen: "What the hell is going on, even if Huaidong has made up his mind to establish King Ning, why don't you make a prophet?" Do you have to make a fuss until everyone turns their faces and asks outsiders to see the joke before applauding? ”
"The third child," Lin Xuwen didn't blame Lin Xulu for his unkind tone, his own brother still turned his face and didn't recognize people, let alone cousins? How much more is it for the abolition of the kings of the world? He looked at Lin Xulu and said, "Not to mention whether you will let go of your ambition to support Lili, that is, if you persuade you to support King Ning together, how can you explain to the new emperor that King Lu quietly stayed in Qingzhou for a month?" Don't blame Huaidong for being ruthless, the Gu family father and son snatched the Empress Dowager Liang and King Lu from Huaidong, and at the end of the day, a circle of people negotiated the conditions, and finally spread it in front of Huaidong and forced Huaidong to get on your thief ship, you have already made too much mistake! If you come to question me and Huaidong today, I think my words have been clear enough! ”
Lin Xuwen poked the words out and said, Lin Xulu lost his aggressive momentum when he first entered the courtyard, and said in a slow tone: "My father is also confused for a while, just if this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Huaidong and the Lin family, I refuse to listen to it." Alas, I didn't expect Huaidong to make such a decisive move, which caught people off guard......" Lin Xulu cleared himself up first.
Sun Wenbing sighed in his heart when he heard this: Even the brothers of the same clan of the Lin family refused to believe that Huaidong made such a decision to take the overall situation into account, and outsiders would regard the adults as ungrateful villains who stabbed them in the back.
Lin Xulu didn't care what Sun Wenbing thought, he carefully chose his words, just thinking that things had come to this point, and the key was how to save it, not to try to stiffen the relationship quickly.
"Did you send the second uncle's congratulatory watch?" Lin Xuwen asked.
"I carry it in my arms, but I always have to ask my eldest brother for your opinion...... Lin Xulu said.
The righteous name of King Ning has been decided, including the Gu family's father and son, and the Liang family must bow their heads, don't just meet each other in arms - Huaidong clearly supports King Ning, only relying on the Liang family, the Gu family's father and son's forces in Shandong and Hezhong, are they qualified to directly support King Lu as emperor in Qingzhou?
Although Huaidong's actions caught Lin Xulu and Lin Tingli off guard, Huaidong's role was too important, and there was no reason to follow the Gu family's father and son and the Liang family to kill Huaidong in the same clan. Since Huaidong clearly supported King Ning, although Dongyang was very passive and annoyed, after repeated considerations, he also put Gu Wuchen aside first and decided to support King Ning to ascend the throne.
However, Dongyang's movements were slow for a long time after all, and he had a tacit understanding with the Gu family's father and son and the Liang family in supporting King Lu before, and he was also worried about liquidating it afterwards, so Lin Xulu waited for Lin Xuwen to come back to find out. At present, if Dongyang is not allowed to settle accounts with the queen of autumn, it will be Huaidong.
"You send the congratulatory watch to King Ning's Mansion first, and then talk about other things when you come back." Lin Xuwen said.
The Gu family's father and son are yellow mud falling in the crotch of their pants is not but also, Huaidong must draw a line with the Gu family father and son, at least Dongyang did not get involved directly.
Dongyang's power is not strong, and he does not have particularly big ambitions to directly conflict with Huaidong's interests, but it can be said that he is a little unclear in terms of political choice and judgment.
On the issue of establishing the Qingzhou Army, the differences between Huaidong and the Gu family's father and son have been clearly revealed, and outsiders can't understand it, Dongyang doesn't notice it at all, so it's a little dull. If Dongyang was aware of it, he shouldn't have agreed to Gu Wuchen's conditions so hastily in terms of supporting the establishment. But that's okay, Dongyang has learned this lesson, and he will be able to learn more or less smartly in the future.
Moreover, if Huaidong does not protect Dongyang, it is to cut off an arm; In addition to protecting Dongyang, Huaidong also had to win over the Dongyang Township Party and make it clear that Huaidong and the Lin family were the leaders of the Dongyang forces.
Hearing what Lin Xuwen said, Lin Xulu did not delay, and hurriedly went to King Ning's Mansion in person to present the congratulatory table supporting the new emperor.
**************
The news that Huaidong was the first to stand up and support King Lining was in Jiangning before noon on the 6th, even if Gu Wuchen couldn't get away in Jiangning, there were other people who sent fast horses to report to Qingzhou as soon as possible. In order to avoid startling the snakes, Huaidong did not make any additional arrangements in Huaisi, and the letter was transmitted to Qingzhou at noon on the 8th.
When the news reached Laizhou, Chen/Yuanliang, Zuo Guitang, Wu Jinzhou and others were sitting in the hall with Gao Zongting on the conditions for supporting King Lu for the final bargaining, Yang Pu came in with a letter, Chen/Yuanliang opened it and looked at it, his face changed dramatically, and the halberd pointed to poke Gao Zongting's face: "Huaidong is so ruthless!" The "porphyr" spurted out a mouthful of blood. Gao Zongting didn't dodge, and his left shoulder was sprayed with blood.
