Ben Hou is ill

Things got bigger.

When they saw the Marquis of Handan, who had fainted from the cold, being carried into the palace on a shelf by the palace guards, the courtiers present thought in unison.

Originally, the rumor had nothing to do with the Zhao family, but as the only in-law of the Yan family, it was inevitably affected.And the relationship between the Yan and Zhao families is indeed extraordinary. The 100-year friendship between them is not just on paper. No matter how the Zhao family reacts, they will inevitably be suspected. The Marquis of the state called into the palace to inquire.

This was a dead end, but Handan Hou used this method of retreating to show that he and the entire Zhao family were loyal.

Didn't it mean that I was in command of Weiyang Palace Guards but not loyal?Then I will return the Warrant Tiger Talisman right now.

Didn't it mean that my Zhao family was disloyal and filial to the Tian family?Then I will plead guilty, and I invite myself to go to Zhao Prison to be punished.

Didn't it mean that I had treasonous thoughts?I will return everything to the Tian family, leaving only my white clothes that are just my innocence.How can this one be so rebellious?

Even the late emperor's mother clan and the Zhao family, which was only slightly affected, wanted to use this method to avenge themselves, so what kind of method would the Yan family, which is at the center of the vortex, use?

Besides, the relatives represent the face of the emperor. The fact that the first emperor stumbled and died made the Tian family very embarrassed. The rumors spread from the first emperor's mother's family. Whether it is true or not, the Tian family must lose face.Neither the Zhao family nor the Yan family can prove their innocence in this matter, because firstly, it is not a false accusation, no one reported or impeached, it is full of gossip from Chang'an, and secondly, there is no evidence, how can they prove that they are innocent? ever done?

At any time, no matter whether it is true or false, it will leave a grudge in the emperor's heart. As the saying goes, three people make a tiger, and one word makes a gold. If 1 people say the same sentence, it is true if it is not true.Under such circumstances, no matter how much the emperor trusts him, he will still have a trace of suspicion in his heart. Anyone in power will have this kind of suspicion. Otherwise, why are there so many emperors who were wise and powerful when they were young in history, but their suspicions changed drastically when they were old?

As long as you start to doubt, the lightest treatment left to the Yanzhao family is temporary dismissal and investigation, and the worst is ransacking the family.Because Tian's nerves would not be so sensitive at any time, they would maintain stability, see people's hearts for a long time, and don't worry about not knowing what kind of person it is after a long time. It's just that the little emperor is still in his infancy, and the courtiers are panicked. Which of the empress dowagers and empress dowagers in it can guarantee that the relatives will not rebel?Who dares to say that they will never have two hearts in this situation?

No one dared to take such a risk, the captain's son-in-law and the commander of Jin Yiwei would have to be replaced, maybe the position of the governor of Hedong would also be replaced.Even if the Yan and Zhao families don't want to change, the rumors and rumors will force them to resign themselves.

The little emperor grew up in this kind of wind, will he still have a good impression of the Yanzhao family?

This is a conspiracy, the most vicious serial scheme.

The Marquis of Handan gave up everything to break the situation, but he may not be able to retreat completely.

In the end, who will win the deer depends on the eldest princess, the Queen Mother Chen, and the Queen Mother Zhao.

"No one has knocked on the que to complain of grievances in Dajin for decades, and they still knocked nine times in a row." Prime Minister on the right said faintly, and entered the Weiyang Palace.

The complexions of the important ministers behind him were not very good-looking. After all, those who have neither family nor son like the right minister are a minority. Most people are involved in this matter either actively or forcedly. Those who think about the end to gain some benefits, and some are dragged down by their sons or in-laws.No one is innocent.

In Weiyang's palace, the eldest princess's complexion was not good.

This is the method designed earlier to break the situation. Besides, there are other strategies behind, just waiting for the right time.She did not expect that this second cousin could be so cruel to her. In front of Weiyang Palace, there is a large open space paved with stone bricks, which is not sheltered from wind or rain. It's cold, let alone this season, and it's snowing again.

The second cousin refused to give herself a way out, so how could she soften her heart?

The eldest princess didn't mention the matter of the Marquis of Handan at all, but dealt with the affairs of state with a straight face, and her complexion was much more gloomy than usual.No one dared to touch her bad head without opening their eyes.

A spokesperson carefully mentioned the recent rumors in Chang'an, but he didn't dare to say what happened to the Yan family and the Zhao family. He just said that this would damage the reputation of the Tian family, and the eldest princess should make a decision early.

After hearing this, the Minister of the Ministry of War stepped forward, took off his hat and knelt down, and said: "My minister, Jihou, and Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Yan Lan, I have committed a crime. Please let the eldest princess allow you to resign and go home."

A group of courtiers: "..."

The eldest princess's complexion was as cold as frost.

After a long while, the eldest princess squeezed out a sentence through her clenched teeth, saying: "The Minister of the Ministry of War is innocent, and this palace does not allow it. If there is nothing wrong, immediately retreat!"

Empress Dowager Chen's recent mood is really not very good. First, her natal nephew caused a lot of trouble. Although the unworthy son was severely punished, the newly adopted child, Chen Hua, is still quite sensible. She thought it was all right. There are not many big families surnamed Gu, so it's fine to give some things as an apology.In the end, the eldest princess told her that Gu Lingyi was the son of General Zhennan's brother, and her stepfather was the right minister of the court. She had to pick out a lot of good things and send them to Gu Lingyi's house to make amends, because the right minister's mansion did not accept palace and Something sent by someone other than the in-laws.

The family background of the Chen family is not as good as that of the Yanzhao family. Lu Chenghou lost his wife and two children before, and his original dowry was returned to them exactly, because the Chen family made up a lot of losses.Today's Chen family can't afford the compensation to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion. The Empress Dowager Chen can only get it from her own private house. These are all saved bit by bit, and a large part is given by Empress Zhaode Of course, it was also given by the Queen Mother Zhao.These things are treasures, even unique items, but they have to be given away for someone else's fault, which made Empress Dowager Chen heartbroken for a long time.

It also made her hate Chen Du even more, wishing to beat this unworthy son to death, so she called Chen Hua into the palace every Xiumu, for fear that the child would also grow crooked, and more importantly, to express her love for Chen Hua to Lu Chenghou. goodwill.Chen Hua was indeed in line with her wishes. He got along well with Gu Lingyi, became friends with the youngest of the Yan family, and started practicing martial arts with Yan San. It made the queen mother happy for a long time.

But I was not happy for long, because the rumors about Chang'an spread.

The three Yanzhao and Chen families are all relatives, and the Chen family is the weakest link, and also the most vulnerable. If the Yanzhao family collapses because of this, will the Chen family have a good end?She is well aware of how good Lu Chenghou is. To be the captain of Fengche can only be said to be reluctant, but it is impossible to carry the banner of foreign relatives.

Therefore, Empress Dowager Chen was restless and often asked people to go out to inquire about the news, for fear that one day she would suddenly learn the news that Lu Chenghou's house had been ransacked and exterminated, or that the Chen family would be brought into the rumors.

Empress Dowager Chen summoned an eunuch and asked, "Is there anything interesting going on in Chang'an or the palace recently?"

The eunuch has been serving Empress Dowager Chen for a long time, knowing that she doesn't care about most things except private money and the little emperor, and the only thing that Empress Dowager Chen can specifically ask about is the gossip about Chang'an.Empress Dowager Chen wanted to ask if there were any rumors related to Lu Chenghou's mansion, but asking directly seemed like she had something to do with this matter.

The eunuch replied: "Reporting to the Queen Mother, there is nothing interesting in Chang'an, but there are two things this morning. I don't know whether I should tell you..."

Empress Dowager Chen frowned and said, "Let's listen."

"The first thing is that the Marquis of Handan kowtowed in the morning to express his grievances, and passed out from the cold."

Empress Dowager Chen couldn't help but twitched her brows, "The Marquis of Handan knocked on the que to express his grievance?"

The eunuch told her in detail what had happened earlier.

Empress Dowager Chen's brows gradually softened. It was neither Zhao Guohou nor Zhao Guohou's son who came forward. The Handan Marquis wanted to set up another family, and he could not represent the Zhao family."What's the second thing?" she asked.

"The second thing is that the Minister of the Ministry of War wrote a letter to resign."

Empress Dowager Chen is not particularly sensitive to the affairs of the previous court, and she doesn't remember her official positions very well. If the eunuchs called the Marquis of Handan the captain-in-law, she might not be able to remember who he was.The same is true for the Minister of War.Seeing her puzzled expression, the eunuch explained, "It's Marquis Ji, the father of Marquis Yan."

"So it's Jihou...Jihou?!" Empress Dowager Chen's eyes sharpened immediately.The two families of Yan and Zhao have the same spirit, if Marquis Ji resigns, will Marquis Zhao Guo not resign?Will Lu Chenghou resign at that time?The Yan and Zhao families have resigned and still have years of savings and fame. What does the Chen family have?A Lu Chenghou with [-] households in the city?

Most of the foreign relatives came to power relying on the emperor's favor, and there were also a small number of powerful ones. The Chen family was the former, and the Yanzhao family was the latter.How long can the Chen family live in Chang'an without this favor?Just relying on her elder brother who can lose his wife and children to support the lintel?Without the support of the Yanzhao family, will the Chen family be a drag on her son in the future?

The sky is big and the earth is big, her son is the biggest!

After thinking about it, Empress Dowager Chen immediately said: "Go and see if the eldest princess has gone to court, if she has gone to court, please come quickly."

The rumors and gossips in Chang'an have changed several forms in this month, but no one has suppressed them. Even the officials and maids in the palace are quietly spreading rumors, which shows that the eldest princess deliberately let go of rumors spreading outside to discredit her relatives.

She has neither the wisdom nor the means of the eldest princess, and she is not interested in how to deal with the government, as long as her son can grow up safely and take charge of the government smoothly.So she never asks about court affairs, but it doesn't mean that Queen Mother Chen can't ask.As the emperor's biological mother, if she is determined, she can also cause some troubles for the eldest princess.

No matter what the princess's plans are, the relatives must not fail!

The relatives are the most loyal to the emperor, anyone may rebel, but the relatives will not.

The author has something to say: Wang Mang is not an ordinary relative, he is a time traveler and cannot be compared (…)
