Chapter seven hundred and eighteen: recognize relatives
Chen Kaizhi never thought the Empress Dowager simple.
From the first meeting, he felt that the Empress Dowager was unfathomable and was not someone he could figure it out.
However, Mr. Yan's words are thought-provoking now.
Chen Kaizhi frowned and couldn't help asking: "Mr. Yan's meaning, from the beginning, the Empress Dowager knew Wuji's existence, and this time he returned to Luoyang was for this matter. She did not show any expression, and then took the opportunity to throw out this out. Her real purpose was to wait for the advice of all officials and then follow the trend, but... what exactly did she want to do?"
Yes, what exactly does she want to do?
Since she knew Wuji's existence, she had been enduring and unreliable.
But if she knew Wuji's existence, she endured it. If she only hoped that Prince Wuji would live a simple life, then why did she just throw out Prince Wuji's whereabouts at this time?
"Maybe, I want to make Prince Wuji ascend the throne, or... I have other plans." Mr. Yan stroked his beard and analyzed carefully, and said with a serious look: "Lord, have you not thought about it? Since the Empress Dowager returned to Luoyang, the lord has repeatedly fought with the King of Zhao, but the Empress Dowager is on your side. Logically speaking, the King of Zhao is the legitimate son of the Empress Dowager. As a mother, why should he protect the lord everywhere?"
Chen Kaizhi's eyes opened and he immediately understood, looking at Mr. Yan with an incredible look on his face: "What you mean is that this is done deliberately. The Empress Dowager wants to form a balance of power in the court."
"I'm afraid, that's it." Mr. Yan smiled bitterly: "It's meaningless to speculate on the Empress Dowager's thoughts now. What should I do now be? "
His words made everyone serious.
What does this Empress Dowager mean? This is extremely nervous. Now it is mainly to figure out the intentions of the Empress Dowager. What does she mean?
Chen Kaizhi's original short-term goal was to continue to strengthen himself and seek big things.
But now there is a sudden trouble, and at this moment, we must change our strategy.
Chen Kaizhi knew very well that what he wanted to take was an extremely difficult road. He took a deep breath, but still felt that his body and mind were not nervous, because there were many companions on this road. No matter what, he had to take every step well and not have other accidents.
With a slightly lowered look, Chen Kaizhi sighed deeply in his heart, then raised his eyes gently, looked at Mr. Yan, and said solemnly.
"Sir, please continue."
Mr. Yan smiled: "I am good at raising questions, but how to solve the problem is why Yang joined the army."
Yang Biao was silent from beginning to end. The name Yang Zongjun... Well, for him, it seemed a little frustrated. He couldn't help but smile. Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but smile. I think that in the past few days, everyone has often joked about Yang Zongjun.
Yang Biao stroked his beard and smiled, then asked everyone: "Who is our enemy?"
He suddenly asked this question, which made everyone serious. Chen Kaizhi pondered for a moment before saying lightly: "It is an enemy or a friend. In this temple, I may not dare to assert that King Liang, King Zhao and others need not say anything. In the cabinet, except Chen Yishou and Duke Chen, I dare not believe it easily. As for other Dukes and Dukes, as well as the governors, generals, and governors outside, I can't tell them clearly. Even the Empress Dowager, I can't handle it."
Yang Biao smiled: "But there is a man who is the lord's close relative."
Chen Kaizhi suddenly remembered that he came alone, Empress Dowager Mu.
Yang Biao still had a smile on his face and said to Chen Kaiyi word for it: "No matter who this Wuji is, where, will it appear in the future, will there be any variables, and even how much turmoil may be caused, these... it is impossible to predict that the Empress Dowager is extremely cunning, not to mention that she has been in Ganquan Palace in Chang'an for so many years without a trace. I know nothing about what she arranged and what she arranged. But please understand that there is a person who always stands on the side of the lord, and this person is Empress Dowager Mu."
Yang Biao said, his face changed, and he analyzed with a serious look: "Now there is a sudden appearance of Wuji Prince. I think the government and the country will be in an uproar. Next, there will be continuous turmoil and countless rumors and suspicion. But the more this time, the more the lord will find his 'friend'. The lord's identity should be revealed to Empress Mu."
Yang Biao's face was stern and said word by word: "Tell the Empress that Wuji is not the crown prince, but the lord is the true Your Highness! Only in this way can the lord work with the Empress, letting him blow the winds in the east, south, west and north, and I will stand firm."
Chen Kaizhi's eyes narrowed, and Yang Biao's words made him suddenly enlightened.
Yes, once the next prince Wuji appears, if this person is indeed the prince that Empress Dowager Mu believes, then unpredictable consequences may occur under this accident.
When I chose to hide it, I had to wait for an opportunity to act. Just in case, the fewer people know about this, the better, but now... it's not time for me.
Chen Kaizhi's eyes were sharp and he said solemnly: "Go into the palace immediately to see the emperor."
make a prompt decision!
At this time, there is no possibility of hesitation.
No matter what, the so-called Prince Wuji must not be confused.
"This is not the best time." Mr. Yan shook his head: "The current Empress Dowager Mu must be with the Empress Dowager. Moreover, it is a sudden change now. It is very inappropriate to enter the palace at this time. Now the palace has become a place of extremely sensitive and right and wrong. Any movement may attract countless suspicions and doubts. Not only King Zhao and King Liang, but I am afraid that even the Empress Dowager may not be..."
He paused and said, "We must find a favorable opportunity, and the lord should not go alone. For this matter, the chief clerk of Chen should go with him. Let the chief clerk explain everything. In short, we must be very cautious."
Uh... everyone looked at Chen's "Chief Bookman".
Chen's 'Chief' was ashamed. He pretended to be casual and nodded to Chen Kaizhi: "I'll go with my lord."
Chen Kaizhi felt embarrassed and laughed: "Uncle Wang..."
"Don't call Uncle Wang." Mr. Yan said seriously: "If the lord wants to do great things, he will have different levels of superiority and inferiority. Without rules, there will be no order. We follow the lord not because of personal love, but for justice. There is no Uncle Wang or nephew here, and there are only young monarchs and ministers."
Chen Yixing was busy and saluted Chen Kaizhi seriously, and called out with great respect: "Lord."
Chen Kaizhi had no choice but to smile bitterly, then moved away from the topic and asked Mr. Yan seriously: "I think it will take a long time to make any moves in the civil and military officials of the court. What should we do?"
"Watch the change, the most important thing now is to recognize the Queen Mother. You can wait patiently for the rest." Mr. Yan said calmly: "Mrs. Mu also needs to calm down. Only when you have a clear idea in the palace and outside the palace can you formulate a complete plan, and then look at the movements inside and outside the court and the country, and wait for an opportunity to move."
Mr. Yan suddenly remembered something, and slurped at Chen Kaizhi and others, and said cautiously.
"The so-called son of a thousand gold cannot sit in the hall. The lord is a thousand gold body, carrying the hope of thousands of people. It is better not to take risks. For example, in the Mingjingsi, the lord is still too risky. Although the lord's reasons are sufficient, the lord's honor and disgrace are all in the palace at the moment. If there is any loss, how can it be obtained?"
Mr. Yan's words were a little bit blameful.
Chen Kaizhi said, "I can guarantee that the palace will never be punished." Chen Kaizhi blinked at Mr. Yan in a cunning manner: "Not to mention, I have arranged it properly, and there is a legitimate reason. Besides, has Mr. Yan ever thought about why the Jinyiwei became a personal army? The Jinyiwei became a personal army, which proves that the palace was no longer at ease with the Mingjingsi. Let the Jinyiwei become a personal army. In essence, the Mingjingsi and the Jinyiwei were in control of each other. If I were at this time, I would be happy with the people of Mingjingsi, but it would be contrary to the hope of the palace. What I did was actually the thoughts of the nobles in the palace. If I had no complete confidence, I would never dare to provoke Mingjingsi."
"What's more, the Jinyiwei was first established, and everything was in trouble. What I lacked the most was intelligence. Without this, even if the Jinyiwei was a personal army, with money and food, and had hands, he was still blind and deaf. But it was too difficult to brighten my eyes and make my ears smarter, starting from scratch. Mingjingshi has been operating for hundreds of years, and they have their spies everywhere in the world, so I had to borrow arrows from the boat and get some information first, and use this as a basis to establish the Jinyiwei's spy agency. In this way, I can do less trouble."
Mr. Yan and others couldn't help but smile bitterly. Chen Kaizhi is really a terrifying guy.
Xueshen Jiang, who had not spoken, said lightly: "Your Highness, have you ever thought about something that from the beginning, everything today was arranged by the Empress Dowager?"
"What?" Everyone looked at Mr. Jiang.
Xue Shi Jiang took a breath, frowned and said seriously: "I couldn't get in the middle of the day, so I kept thinking that the Empress Dowager had inexplicably gone to Ganquan Palace in Chang'an. After more than ten years, I suddenly came back. As a result, I knew the whereabouts of Prince Wuji. What's even more terrifying is that she didn't show any expression before. I was wondering whether the Empress Dowager would come back this time for one purpose."
Chen Kaizhi once thought about it this way, but he quickly rejected it because it seemed that there was no need for the Empress Dowager to do so.
Mr. Yan's eyes seemed to guess Chen Kaizhi's thoughts. He squinted his lips slightly, then smiled, and said word by word: "No matter what, you must be fully prepared so that you can deal with it. However, this step is the time for the Empress Dowager to meet the Queen Mother. It is time for a mother to know the whereabouts of his real son. Others are not mentioned for the time being."
