A confusing little system for newbie bosses

As an excellent emperor, he knows people well, manages things wisely, is far-sighted, and has power checks and balances...

The qualities that these emperors need to possess are all present in the saints, but they are not decisive enough in killing decisively.

It was precisely because of this that some ministers were determined to assist the emperor.

For example, Xia Qian'an, the king of peace.

Yunhuang did not intend to directly participate in the two people's plan, but just wanted Jiujiu to pay attention in secret, so that if there were any mistakes, he could correct them in time.

As she said, it was just for "personal gain".

When we came out of Dali Temple, fine snow was floating in the night sky, and it had already melted before it hit the ground, as if it was a sign that the situation in the court was about to change.

After understanding the plans of the emperor and King Ping'an, Yunhuang's life became more comfortable. He practiced calligraphy, drawing, and reading every day... The rhythm of his life did not change at all.

After experiencing the initial panic for a few days, the Ping An Prince's Mansion was on track.

It's just that the palace is surrounded by forbidden troops, and it doesn't affect life.

Only when she had free time, Princess Lieyang would reveal her worries about Xia Hong. Fortunately, her three children tried their best to make her happy, so she didn't get depressed.

Unfortunately, this peaceful life did not last long because Yunhuang was poisoned.

Twenty days have passed since the incident, but there has been no progress in the leak of the northwest border defense map, and Xia Hong is still alive and dead.

Prince Ping'an's palace has been trapped for so long, and the food stored in the palace has been almost consumed.

Although the emperor issued an order to seal off Prince Ping'an's palace, he did not say that he would starve them to death, but the problem arose in the newly transported food.

The food was brought in by Uncle Li, who had been delivering food to the palace. During this period, it was screened at all levels and handled by many people. It was difficult to find out the source of the poison, not to mention that the poison was released two days later. There were many murderers. time to process the evidence.

This shows that the opponent can no longer hold it in any longer.

The poison was added to Yunhuang's daily nourishing medicinal diet, and she was the first to be poisoned, followed by the imperial chef and the palace doctor who made her daily medicinal diet, and then the personal maid Xiao Tao and the servants in the courtyard.

These poisoned people all have one thing in common. They either serve Yunhuang or have a hand in her daily life. People who don't have contact with her are fine.

Except for Yunhuang, the signs of poisoning in the others were very mild, and the government doctors were able to deal with it completely.

Because of this, Princess Yueyang and others all agreed that the opponent came for Yunhuang.

In fact, she had already changed her opponent's poison, but for the emperor and King Ping'an's plan, she had to risk her own life and pretend to be poisoned, so as to lure them to continue taking action, which is the so-called "lure the snake out of its hole".

Only by letting the opponents hiding in the dark move first can they find the opportunity to kill them with one blow.

Because Prince Ping'an's palace was heavily surrounded by the Forbidden Army, the planners had no way to detect the situation even if they wanted to. They could only judge the current situation through the imperial doctors constantly dispatched by the emperor.

After entering the palace, none of these imperial doctors left. They all gathered in Yunhuang's small courtyard.

Just because she was not only "poisoned", but also suffered from "old illnesses" due to her frailty since childhood, in order to keep these imperial doctors in the house.

In three days, the Imperial Medical Office dispatched a total of eight imperial doctors, but no information came out except various pulse reports.

Those who know a little bit about medical skills know that these people are not going to die soon.

At the same time, the plan to frame Prince Ping'an's palace and collaborate with the enemy and treason began.

People from all walks of life began to sneak into the palace overtly and covertly. Although the Forbidden Army released the water intentionally or unintentionally, some "evidence" was still left behind.

On the twenty-fifth day after the incident, everyone in the Ping An Palace gathered in the front hall, feeling sad because Princess Zhaohua had passed away.

Princess Yueyang couldn't bear the blow. She coughed up blood on the spot and fell into coma. The royal doctor is currently treating her.

Later, the future princess Xia Yuyan cried and fainted in front of the couch, and was also carried out.

Only the crown prince Shaobao Xia Yu was left to write several letters in a row and send them to the Imperial Study Room and the East Palace. He even wrote a letter to King Ping'an in Dali Temple.

It is said that after receiving the letter, King Ping An's eyes turned red and he almost went crazy.

The next day, a secret letter intercepted by the Forbidden Army appeared in the court.

There was no signature on the letter, but it just stated that everything was ready to start the internal and external cooperation plan.

This secret letter suddenly pushed the Prince's Palace of Ping'an to the forefront of the storm, because the homing pigeon was intercepted in the Prince's Palace of Ping'an.

The court was divided into two factions.

One group believed that this was a frame-up against Prince Ping'an's palace. These people were usually on good terms with Xia Qian'an and were also members of the royalist party.

The other faction is headed by officials from aristocratic families who are not dealing with Xia Qianan and want to bring him down.

What the emperor didn't expect was that the Neutral Party, which usually acted as good guys to smooth things over and didn't speak out or express its stance, also began to support the family.

The two factions argued all morning, and finally the Minister of War of the Aristocratic Family faction proposed to send the Imperial Army to search the Prince's Mansion.

The emperor did not immediately agree to the proposal, but he also showed hesitation. Since the secret letter was presented, the emperor has been silent, leaving the officials below unclear about his thoughts.

In the eyes of all the officials, this look was a sign that the emperor was suspicious of King Ping An, but he must be afraid of something and did not dare to take action easily.

For the aristocratic family, what they wanted was the emperor's suspicion. After all, their purpose was to drive a wedge between the royal family and the Xia family.

But in the end they still failed to search Ping An's palace.

It's not that the emperor didn't give the order, but that Princess Yueyang blocked the imperial army alone and threatened her with death, forcing them not to dare to act rashly.

Princess Yueyang was the emperor's only biological sister. If she insisted on blocking it, how could the emperor have the heart to let her blood splatter on the spot and immediately withdraw his life?

And those people from aristocratic families are naturally unwilling to give up this hard-won opportunity.

Now is the best time to weaken the imperial power. As long as King Heian's crime can be confirmed, even if the emperor hesitates, he will not be able to resist the pressure of the court.

By then, the Ping'an Palace will fall, the emperor will lose an arm, and the control of the imperial army and the 300,000 soldiers in the northwest will be controlled by the successors who have been arranged by the family for a long time.

The emperor who loses military power will also lose the right to speak.

The next step is to be made a puppet.

As for whether the Qi royal family can continue to inherit the throne, they don't care.

No matter who becomes the emperor, as long as they have real power in their hands, they can gain a foothold in the court.

Even if the imperial power changes, their status will not change.

Some aristocratic families can be passed down for thousands of years, relying on the power in their hands. This is why the royal families of all generations hate aristocratic families.
