Evil Girl Reborn: The Eldest Princess, She Takes Manchurian Civil and Military Affairs

Chapter 74 Hostage
Knowing Yiman's sensitivity, Zhou Yu said directly, "Gao Yang's military power should not be easily returned to the emperor's hands, please help the eldest princess."

Sure enough, Zhou Yu's plan was for the noble family.

The emperor wanted to gather military power to deal with the aristocratic families, not just to stabilize and contain the aristocratic families near Gaoyang.The greater possibility is that the family's power is now so great that the emperor needs to use military power to implement reforms.The emperor naturally has other troops at his disposal, but that would be too obvious and would be rebuked by ministers headed by noble families.

Coincidentally, the Gaoyang garrison is near her fief Jindu, which is also the ancestral land of the Zhou family.It seems that after the emperor dealt with the second-tier families, he would deal with the Zhou family first.

But the aristocratic family is too big to lose, and it has done more harm than good to Daling Jiangshan, so it must be eliminated.

If Zhou Yu is directly rejected, the family will inevitably incur revenge.Moreover, Zhou Yu has been paying attention to her ever since she escaped from her adoptive parents, and categorically refusing her will inevitably cause immeasurable troubles.

Yiman lowered his eyes and smiled slightly, "Young Master Zhou, I'm just a princess living in a deep palace. I really don't understand political affairs. If Young Master Zhou has any good ideas, you might as well just tell me. I'll see if I can help you."

"Does the Eldest Princess trust Your Majesty?"

Of course I don't believe it.Just by looking at the harem, we can tell that Ji Chongrong was a political marriage. Du Baolin had been favored before, but he still ended up with a broken stomach.

It is understandable that the emperor is ruthless, but the emperor's appearance of staying away from the prince because of his illness and weakness is of no use, which really makes Yiman look down on him.This is true for parents and children, let alone her cheap daughter who has been lost for many years.

Yiman didn't understand why he suddenly asked such a question, so he continued to look at him with doubts.

"The reform of the New Deal is not yet complete, and rashly implementing it will inevitably lead to turmoil, and various forces will compete for confrontation. What good will the princess do then?"

She must have less control than Zhou Yu. Regardless of whether what he said is true or false, its implementation will definitely be detrimental to maintaining stability.

If it is turbulent, it is necessary to balance the forces of all parties.What is the role of the princess?Marry and win over.

She is currently the only unmarried adult princess.

Yiman gritted his teeth and cursed secretly in his heart.With a slight smile on his lips, he looked at Zhou Yu, who was still calm and calm.

Zhou Yu actually represented the aristocratic family and used her marriage to link up with Da Ling Weiwen, such a despicable villain with a white face and a black heart.

Yiman smiled and nodded, "Young Master Zhou is right, but I want something. I wonder if Mr. Zhou has it?"

Zhou Yu nodded and took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, "This is a prescription for treating congenital deficiencies. It contains precious medicinal materials. When the matter is completed, I will send someone to deliver it to the princess."

Seeing that the joints of his hands were distinct and the veins were clearly visible, Yiman secretly cursed himself for being distracted and useless at this time, and sighed in his heart.

Yiman took two steps forward and took it quickly, "This is the second, but if Cheng Youseng's military power is not taken back temporarily, he needs someone."

"Princess, please speak."

"Cheng Youping, I heard that Cheng Youseng cares about her younger sister very much. As long as Cheng Youping enters the palace as a hostage, the emperor can rest assured and the matter of military power can be postponed."

This not only restrained Cheng Youseng, so that he did not dare to get too close to the aristocratic family, but also reassured the emperor for a while, and slowly planned the reform of the New Deal.

When enough power is accumulated, the prince or her will gradually reduce or annihilate the family.

Zhou Yu did not reply immediately after hearing this. Apparently he also knew that Cheng Youseng valued this sister very much, so he could reassure the emperor.

But how could a sister who had been raised as an eyeball be put into the palace and be groomed by others? She might even be forced to take a concubine by the emperor. Cheng Youseng would never do that.

Yiman understood Zhou Yu's concerns, "I will ask the emperor for a special order to summon Cheng Youping to the palace to be my companion or female official. She will be allowed to live in the Qingsi Palace and I will try my best to protect Cheng Youping's safety. If Mr. Zhou You are also willing to guarantee me, I think Cheng Youseng will be shaken." "Princess, do you want Empress Chongrong to persuade General Cheng as well?"

A lot is known, and the power of the aristocratic family cannot be underestimated.

He nodded with a faint smile, "Master Zhou, please bring Miss Cheng here."

Zhou Yu nodded, turned and left.

With a cold face, Yiman turned around and walked towards Yanying Hall. If the emperor knew that she had made a deal with the family, he would definitely treat her as a useless chess game and put her in a valuable place as soon as possible.

But now the aristocratic family does not want to go to war, the prince and brother are in frail health, and the court still needs to maintain stability. Why is the emperor so anxious to clean up the aristocratic family?

Seeing Mr. Fu coming out to see off an adult, Yiman immediately walked over with a smile on his face.

"Princess, why are you back again?"

Yiman glanced at the gate of the palace, "Father asked me a question, and on the way back I figured out the answer, so I rushed to answer it."

Eunuch Fu was in the palace when the emperor asked Yiman just now, so he naturally understood who the emperor was alluding to.Hearing Yiman's words, he was startled, he responded with a smile, and hurried in to report back.

After a while, Eunuch Fu came out and welcomed Yiman in.

"My son sees my father."

The emperor obviously did not take Eunuch Fu's words seriously. He opened a memorial and read it, "I heard that you have come up with a solution?"

"Yes, I think that since the general is domineering, there is nothing to worry about. After all, a biting dog never barks. If the general is greedy for power, he should not grab it directly. This is not conducive to the stability of the situation. It is better to stay under the general's control Tie a rope around his neck to give him some scruples. This way, he doesn't have to take back all his military power. If he needs it, he only needs to pull the rope."

Hearing this, the emperor raised his head, looked at the nonchalant talk, and slowly put down the pen in his hand.

"A general in the army, what do you think is that rope?"

Yiman lowered his eyes respectfully, "wives, daughters, brothers and sisters are all fine. As long as they are recruited into the palace, they are hostages. If the general doesn't care about his relatives in the palace, he will be admitted, his reputation will be damaged, and he will lose his reputation in the army." If there is a crack, you can attack it in one fell swoop. If you care about your relatives in the palace, you can get your wish."

There was silence in the hall, the emperor's eyes slowly became dignified, his aura exuded, with the oppressive feeling of an emperor, "Who taught you?"

Yiman looked at the emperor squarely, with a neither humble nor overbearing attitude, "No one taught my ministers, I learned from history books."

The emperor suddenly showed a kind smile slowly, and the tense atmosphere in the hall gradually dissipated, "By the way, Taifu Mi is teaching you a lesson in history. You do have some understanding, but it's a pity."

Yiman lowered his eyes, pretending he didn't hear what was said behind.No matter how much he belittles it, as long as things can be done, that's all.

"Since you know, you must have guessed who the general is. How do you think his sister should be called into the palace?"

Yiman smiled slightly and said, "My son has never understood the government, and I don't know which general he is. I just think that my father will not chat about the affairs of the previous dynasty. I thought that he could summon the general's sister into the palace as a It sounds better to be the princess's companion or reading lady. As long as the general's sister can enter the palace with confidence, the rest of the matter will be easy to talk about. "

The emperor nodded appreciatively, "That makes sense, but the general might not be willing?"
