Jinyiwei's Killing God System

Chapter 332 The plans of the courtiers ([-])

Yan Long said: "Mr. Ye Ge, do you mean that once the emperor dies, Wei Zhongxian may be unfavorable to the prince, and then pretend to be another emperor?"

"Maybe before the emperor dies, they will attack the prince." Ye Xianggao sighed.

"They? Old Ye Ge means that King Xin will also attack the prince!" Yan Long said with a little surprise.

Yan Long's intelligence system is now very large and efficient, and he has also received relevant information about Wei Zhongxian's intention to select the successor to the throne among the vassal kings, so he was not surprised when Ye Xianggao said it.But when Ye Xianggao said that King Xin also had the intention of treason, he was a little surprised.

Because all the information shows that Xin Wang Zhu Youjian is low-key and cautious in his actions. It can be said that he is the benchmark of warmth, kindness, respect, frugality and concession among the royal relatives.

Ye Xianggao frowned and said: "I'm just guessing, and there is no real evidence. Among all the descendants of the royal family, Zhu Youjian, the king of faith, is the most loved by the emperor. And he is also gentle and polite in front of the officials, and he abides by the law. He has never intervened in the disputes of the court, and has received a lot of praise. But I have discovered that in the past year, the cabinet assistant Han Yu has quietly win over the courtiers more than once to build momentum for him to enter the East Palace."

"Creating momentum?! Could it be that the courtiers persuaded the emperor to appoint another prince?! Didn't this incident start after a household doctor named Zheng Yungui handed over the memorial? What does it have to do with Mr. Han Ge? "Yan Long has Jin Yiwei to collect information for him, and these important events in the court can't escape his eyes and ears.

Ye Xianggao sneered and said, "What the hell is Zheng Yungui? If there is no one to instigate him behind him, how dare he talk about abolishing the establishment?! For several years, Han Yu has been saying intentionally or unintentionally that the prince is weak. He has the style of being the master, and as soon as Zheng Yungui presented the memorial, he mobilized his old disciples to echo him, but his words were extremely vague, making people feel that he was only worried about the prince's health."

The incident that Ye Xianggao mentioned was exactly the "discussion on the basis of the country" that once caused the turmoil in the court. Although it was much less influential than the "dispute over the basis of the country" in the Wanli period, the essence was the same.In fact, it is a battle for the throne of the emperor.

In the end, Tianqi dismissed Zheng Yungui from office and sent him to prison, and issued a strict decree not to discuss the prince's abolition any more.Later, Zheng Yungui committed suicide in prison, and the matter was given up.However, the influence has already been caused, and the crown prince's position in the minds of the courtiers is no longer rock-solid.

Yan Long pondered for a while and said: "According to what Ye Ge said just now, Han Ge always supported Zhu Youjian, the king of faith?!"

"Although Han Yu has never expressed his opinion positively, he is the teacher of King Xin. Besides supporting King Xin, I can't think of anyone else he will support!" Ye Xianggao said firmly.

Yan Long took a deep breath, and then tentatively asked Ye Xianggao, "Mr. Yege, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not? Because if this sentence is spread, I may be beheaded!"

Ye Xianggao's eyes lit up, and he said coldly: "Today we are discussing the matter of abolishing the royal family in this secret room. No matter what word is spread, it will be the death penalty of beheading. I am not afraid of it. Master Yan, what are you afraid of?" ?”

Yan Long smiled and said: "I don't care who the emperor wants to be the prince. But from the perspective of us as a courtier, isn't the trustworthy king Zhu Youjian more suitable to be the emperor than the current prince?"

"How do you know?" Ye Xianggao asked.

Yan Long said calmly: "No matter in terms of age, body, knowledge, and popularity, this is the case."

Ye Xianggao sighed: "Commander Yan, everyone understands what you said, but it's a pity that everyone has overlooked one point."

"Which point?" Yan Long asked.

"Virtue!" Ye Xianggao said.

"Could it be that the king of Xin is a man of no virtue?! Mr. Ye Ge, didn't you say that he is gentle and polite, and he abides by the law?" Yan Long said.

Ye Xianggao said: "That's just on the surface. He is indeed a modest gentleman in front of the officials now. But when I first met King Xin, ten years ago, when he was young, his ruthless heart was already evident. Ruojie, stabbing a palace lady to death in Ciqing Palace because of a small matter in public and not repenting, only to restrain herself after being severely punished. A person's xinxing is like this when he is young, will it change when he grows up?"

After listening to Yan Long, he said thoughtfully: "If Zhu Youjian, the king of faith, also covets the high position, then the prince will be in danger." In the history Yan Long knows, Zhu Youjian is the future Emperor Chongzhen, His succession to the throne is aboveboard, but he also knows that the current trajectory of history has been changed because of his arrival, so he has no way of predicting what Zhu Youjian will do.

Ye Xianggao said: "So the old man came here late at night, just to let Commander Yan pay more attention to the changes in the palace, so as to protect the crown prince! With the ability of Jin Yiwei, the old man believes that all treacherous evil will be warded off."

Yan Long clasped his hands and said: "Mr. Ye Ge, please rest assured, protecting the emperor and the prince is our Jin Yiwei's duty, and I will definitely do my best."

After getting this promise from Yan Long, Ye Xianggao's purpose of visiting Yan Long's mansion this time can be regarded as achieved.

After leaving Yan's mansion, Ye Xianggao returned to his own mansion, and he didn't deliberately hide his whereabouts along the way.Because he doesn't mind all forces knowing that he came to visit Yanlong.Yan Long is now a powerful force in the capital, once he can form an alliance with it, Yan Long can undoubtedly become the winner of the court.

Ye Xianggao entered his study.

Zhao Nanxing, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, had been waiting for him in the study.

Zhao Nanxing, whose name is Mengbai, is a member of the Donglin Party, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and when he presided over the Jingcha (the performance appraisal of Beijing officials), he impeached and dealt with 338 officials from other parties in Beijing, and the number hit a record of 200 in the Ming Dynasty Best in years.But also because of the Donglin Party's faction of fighting against dissidents, people from the Qi and Zhejiang parties who were expelled all voted for Wei Zhongxian's Eunuch Party, which greatly increased the power of the Eunuch Party.

Zhao Nanxing and Ye Xianggao are old friends for many years. After meeting, Zhao Nanxing said to Ye Xianggao: "Jinqing (Ye Xianggao's name is Jinqing), how is your talk with Yan Zhixuan (Yan Long's name is Zhixuan)?" ?”

Ye Xianggao said solemnly: "It's going well, Yan Long has initially agreed to my request."

"It can't be a perfunctory excuse!" Zhao Nanxing said.

Ye Xianggao said: "Look at his words and looks, it doesn't look like a fake. And for so long, judging from his performance, he still maintains the prince's orthodoxy. Taking ten thousand steps back, since the prince trusts him so much, if the prince continues to It is also good for him. I believe he will not do anything that is not good for the prince."

Zhao Nanxing nodded and said, "Well, if Jin Yiwei's forces are on our side, things will go much smoother. Jinqing, then our next move can be officially launched!"

Ye Xianggao sighed: "Yes, the letter king Zhu Youjian can no longer stay in the capital!"
