Two, he could use the underhand technique and change the story into the fact that the demon and barbarian race had destroyed the Chu Prefecture city and the North guarding King had died defending the city.
All the Dukes had to do was to rectify the name of a dead Prince. Not only could he save the face of the Imperial court, but he could also go one step further and establish the prestige and strength of the Imperial court.
At this moment, a miserable laugh rang out in the hall.
Zheng xinghuai looked around at the silent Dukes, then at the faces of Emperor yuanjing and high Duke Cao. This scholar was both mournful and angry.
“Your Majesty, High Duke Cao, have you forgotten that I was not the only one who witnessed all of this? There were also the members of the diplomatic mission and the 20000 soldiers of Chu Zhou. The millions of common people in the capital who know of this matter, as well as the young students of the Imperial College.” Zheng xinghuai suddenly sneered, ”
“Can you guys stop these people from talking?”
Emperor Yuan jing looked down at him with deep mockery in his eyes. He said lightly, ‘”Withdraw the court, we’ll discuss this tomorrow!”
Huaiqing Manor.
In the pavilion in the back garden, huaiqing and Xu Qi ‘an were playing chess by the stone table.
“The day before yesterday, one heard that Lin ‘an went to look for Imperial father to question the truth and was blocked outside the Imperial study. She had a stubborn character and refused to leave, so she was fined two months of her allowance. I originally thought she would go again, but the next day, the
Crown Prince was assassinated.”
Huaiqing’s fair and slender fingers twirled a white chess piece as he chatted with a cold expression.
“The Crown Prince should still be alive, right?” Xu Qi ‘an stared at the go board for a long time without placing a piece.
“I’m just slightly injured.” Huaiqing said indifferently.
The two of them played chess for a while. She seemed to find it boring to play chess with Xu yinluo, so she found another topic.”Have you heard of what happened in the court today?”
Xu Qi ‘an nodded with a gloomy face,”the Lords were defeated, but His Majesty didn’t get any benefits either.” It will probably be a long tug of war.”
Huaiqing raised his beautiful and refined face. His black and bright eyes were like a clear pool after autumn. He stared at him and actually laughed. “You truly aren’t suitable for the Imperial court.”
Did I say something wrong? why must you attack me like this … Xu Qi ‘an frowned.
“This chess game is also boring. Bengong has no interest, so it is better to review today’s court matters with you.” Princess huaiqing gently threw the chess piece into the bamboo Chess Box.
Xu Qi ‘an’s spirit was lifted.
today, the court was discussing how to deal with the Chuzhou case. The Lords asked father to confirm King Huai’s crime, demote him to a commoner, and hang his head in the city for three days … Imperial father was so mournful that he lost control of his emotions and raised a big case, berating the officials.” Huaiqing laughed. what a good trick. First, you shut yourself in the palace for a revv aays to avoid tne snarp eage, ana let tne angry civil ana military ornclals hit cotton.
“When they calm down and stabilize their emotions, they will lose their unstoppable drive. Not only did he destroy the last of the Lords “courage, but he even turned the tables on them, making them wary and cautious …” This was like two people fighting. One of them suddenly went crazy and grabbed a brick to hit his own head. The other person would definitely be instinctively afraid and cautious, thinking that he was crazy. It wasn’t a smart trick, but it was very useful … Xu Qi ‘an had to admit that Emperor Yuan jing had some skills.
“Then, the Ministry of Rites accused chief advisor Wang of being a beggar. This was his father’s plan to kill two birds with one stone. First, he would defeat chief advisor Wang, and then he would have one less enemy in this court session. It can also intimidate the officials and serve as an example to others.” Huaiqing took a sip of tea and said,
“Fortunately, Lord Wei acted in time. Didn’t you want to punish Chief Assistant Wang? Then don’t leave any room for negotiation. However, this was contrary to his father’s original intention. He didn’t really want to get rid of chief advisor Wang, as this would allow the Duke of Wei’s family to monopolize the power. Heh, to Lord Wei, it’s a wonderful thing to take this opportunity to get rid of chief advisor Wang.”
Xu Qi ‘an swallowed his saliva and unconsciously straightened his posture.
“The plan of killing the chicken to warn the monkeys failed. Father immediately asked the left imperial censor Yuan Xiong to take action and bring out the face of the imperial family … You have to know that since ancient times, the dignity of the royal family has been second only to the dignity of the Imperial court. It has a natural pressure on the Dukes.” Princess huaiqing said in a deep voice.
As a subject, he wanted to make the royal family lose face. This would undoubtedly give the Lords psychological pressure … Xu Qi ‘an nodded slowly.
The battle between people was nothing more than a battle of strength and psychological games.
It was just like a phrase he had often heard before he transmigrated:pua
