Wishing You Eternal Happiness Chapter 978: ：Stab you with a knife

Since ancient times, "Literature is to the point of admonition, and force is to the death of fighting." However, there are still only a few people with such courage.

The old minister's surname was Gu, and his reputation in the Metropolitan Procuratorate was not good. He had wasted half his life and was already in his late teens. He had reached the age where he had to retire and return to his hometown.

The imperial court has express regulations that once an official reaches seventy, he must ask for retirement and return to duty. In addition, although he is young, he can be described as old when he is declining.

Therefore, most officials have to retire before they are seventy or even sixty.

The imperial court also needs an infusion of fresh blood in order to continue functioning.

In the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, there was an official named Ju Kejiu. He still did not take the initiative to become an official after he was over seventy years old. This made Song Taizu unable to tolerate it. He wanted to personally order him to become an official, but he felt that an emperor would not accept it. It would be too ugly to urge an official to become an official in person, so it was stipulated that people from the Yushitai should be impeached, and those old officials should be asked to take the initiative to become officials.

The ancient censor had no achievements in the Imperial Court and no outstanding background. How could he stay in the Imperial Court until he was seventy before becoming an official? !

You must know that the officials of the imperial court are like carrots and pits. If one of them leaves, it means that a position is vacant. Many families focus on these old officials to impeach them, so as to free up positions for their own families. paving.

It can be seen that there is nothing simple behind this ancient censor.

It is not difficult to infer that there must be someone behind his move.

So why did the ancient censor, willing to risk his own life, have to be such a standout?

This starts with what happens after an official takes office.

Once ordinary officials leave the officialdom, they will face a situation where their past fame and fortune are gone.

In addition to receiving half of their official salary every month when they were in office, they still enjoyed tax-free treatment, and their lives were still very easy.

But compared to when he was an official in the court, it is completely incomparable.

Most people still cannot accept such a gap. If they still have some connections in the court, they can still care for their descendants and pave the way for their future.

However, all the things the Metropolitan Procuratorate does are things that offend people. For someone like Yu Zongzheng, who comes from a noble family and is protected by a noble family, whenever there is any trouble in the court, it is not his turn to take the lead. That is the direction of the wind. Wrong, even if the imperial court raises troops to investigate, it will not be his turn. The first to bear the brunt are those officials who have no foundation and are still outstanding.

As an official with no foundation and no backing, the ancient censor will have the consequences of being ostracized once he loses power. Even promising descendants of the family who enter the court in the future will also face being ostracized. , the future is worrying.

The ancient imperial censor was getting older and older. Before taking office, he served as a pathfinder for some people. Although he lost his life, he found a refuge for future generations.

It can be regarded as the last time in life to shine.

The current situation in the dynasty is in line with the plan of "fighting for the reserve and chaos in government". Yu Youyao suddenly asked: "Who does this veteran minister belong to?"

Concubine Lan, Concubine Xu, the vassal king, or Yin Huaixi?

Yin Huaixi smiled: "He is from King Liang," and then he changed the topic and said meaningfully: "But this matter was instigated by Concubine Lan."

As expected, but unexpectedly, Yu Youyao was a little surprised: "The hand of King Liang has already been stretched so long."

Yin Huaixi smiled and said: "For King Liang, everything is ready now, all he needs is the east wind. If there is no fight for the reserve and chaos in the government, how can he be famous?"

Yu Youyao took it seriously and frowned: "The ancient censor is from Prince Liang. Does Concubine Lan know about it? Concubine Lan doesn't look like the kind of person who seeks the skin of a tiger."

In the past, the Weining Marquis Mansion was powerful, Lu Huang’s noble concubine had a noble status, and the second prince not only had the most noble status, but also won the emperor’s trust. Prince Liang was a help to the second prince. Of course, there were also threats, but It’s not that it can’t be suppressed.

Today is different from the past. Uncle Ning Yuan was imprisoned. Without the support of her family, Concubine Lan would be seeking the skin of a tiger and seeking her own death if she continued to get involved with Prince Liang.

Concubine Lan wanted to support the second prince and climb high.

The king of Liang also wanted that position.

Concubine Lan could not suppress Prince Liang's ambition, and it was impossible for her to continue to cooperate.

Yu Youyao thought about it. When the emperor made her the county head, when she went into the palace to thank him, she saw Concubine Lan in Shouyan Palace and thought about it.

Yin Huaixi asked: "How can you see it?"

Yu Youyao said: "Concubine Lan is a very smart person. She knows how to assess the situation and is good at planning. She may be smiling and smiling on the surface, but she can stab you when she turns around.

What she said was not groundless.

At that time, the emperor's eldest son died in infancy, and the queen was so devastated that she remained sealed off from the palace.

It was Concubine Lan who took charge of Fengyin and controlled the harem for many years.

The Great Zhou Dynasty had many direct descendants. The Dog Emperor must have loved his eldest son who was just born. The Dog Emperor may not really want to kill the eldest son. The eldest son's feelings are a little more complicated.

Tiger poison does not eat its seeds. He is still an innocent child who has just been born and poses no threat.

No matter which way you look at it, it does not constitute the emperor's murderous intention for the emperor's eldest son.

The death of the emperor's eldest son was not necessarily caused by the emperor, but someone who tried to figure out the Sacred Heart, took advantage of this loophole, and took advantage of the situation to attack the emperor's eldest son.

As the emperor's master, Taifu Yang "married" his daughter and threw water away. If the daughter made a mistake, even for the sake of teaching and teaching, Taifu Yang would not die.

But the Dog Emperor didn't even let his mentor go, so much so that he was dubbed the "killer". This shows that he really regretted the death of the emperor's eldest son.

Next, the second prince took the "eldest" position, and the emperor naturally turned his sympathy and respect for the eldest son to the second prince.

The person who planned all of this understood the emperor's thoughts perfectly and exploited them to the fullest.

Looking at the harem, Yu Youyao could only think of one person who could figure out the Sacred Heart so accurately.

The former Imperial Concubine Lu~IndoMTL.com~the current Concubine Lan!

These days, Concubine Xu is jumping up and down, swaying the gentry in the north and causing trouble in the north;

The result was that he lost both his wife and his troops.

The case of the Han family in Xi'an is still under trial. A group of Han family's children, led by Mr. Han Ge, are still under house arrest. Judging from the progress of the case, Han's family cannot escape the blame.

It seems that all this has nothing to do with Concubine Lan, but the second prince naturally overpowers the third prince and gained a lot of reputation as a virtuous person in the court.

Empress Ning and the fourth prince did not stop, their eyes were fixed on the Yu clan's calculations, and they were determined to achieve their goals and would never give up, even going so far as to launch a Northern Patrol.

But the result is that the "Northern Tour Opportunity" that Queen Ning painstakingly planned was also shelved.

On the surface, Concubine Lan has not gained anything, but the matter of competing for the heir apparent has always been decided by the emperor. Concubine Lan's "low-key" and "comfortable" attitude these days has formed a conflict with Concubine Xu and Empress Ning. sharp contrast.
