Conquer the king with power

Wei Chun returned to the study, where Wei Qing was waiting for him.Before Wei Chun had time to sit down, Wei Qing whispered close to him.

"Your Majesty, there is news from the palace. The Empress Dowager asked His Majesty yesterday for an order to marry the Lord of Rongyang County to the Prince of Lingnan's son. This morning, Feng Xiang and Cai Shoufu jointly recommended Wang Chun as the Zhongshuling. Your Majesty directly communicated with Feng Xiang I met Cai Shoufu and never let go." Wei Qing said everything he knew.

"Is the king of Lingnan coming to stir up the muddy water in the capital?" Wei Chun's eyebrows were serious.

"Your Majesty also summoned Xu Jinnian yesterday. As for what he said, I don't know." Wei Chun's palm is true, but the Imperial Palace is under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Forest Army. Even though he wants to know what Si Yanzhaohedian said, Still unlikely.

"Your Majesty wants Xu Jinnian to be in charge of Zhongshu, so please help Xu Jinnian. You can do something..." Wei Chun's last words were whispered in Wei Qing's ear, only the two of them Know.

After Wei Qing listened, he nodded to show that he knew, so he withdrew, leaving Wei Chun alone in the study.

When Si Yan went to court, the cabinet presented the imperial decree for the marriage. When Si Yan saw Cai Rongyang's name, he asked Dou Yu to seal it with a jade seal without even thinking about it.It's just a marriage gift, if Si Yan can afford it, it depends on what the Cai family can afford.

When it was time for dinner, the children beside Dou Yu suddenly waited outside the door to send a message, saying that Princess Zhaoning had an audience.Si Yan thought it was time to have dinner, so he called Zhaoning together.

"Sister-in-law, see the emperor!" Zhaoning was brought in by the Huangmen and saw Si Yan sitting at the table, the table was already covered with dishes, and he quickly bowed his head and saluted.

"No need to be polite, come and sit here!" Si Yan pointed to the seat beside him, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Si Ning sat down according to his words, dignified and elegant.

Seeing the two masters sitting down, Dou Yu started serving dishes.After Si Yan greeted Si Ning, he began to eat slowly.

"Brother Huang, there is a happy event for my sister to enter the palace today, and I want to tell Brother Huang." Si Ning also showed a smile: "Princess Leyang sent someone today to say that the marriage with the Wei family is over, and the wife of the Wei family agrees." Yes, the two families have a very happy conversation. As long as His Majesty orders a marriage, the two families will start discussing marriage, and a happy marriage will be achieved by the end of next year."

Si Yan's eyes lit up: "Really?"

Si Ning nodded: "Really, Princess Leyang was very happy to give my sister a lot of gifts, and my sister didn't know how to return the gifts!" Si Ning nodded with a smile.

"It's just right, Dou Yu, go to the cabinet now to draw up an edict to marry the princess, and let them send Cai Rongyang's edict of marriage out of the palace together." Si Yan immediately turned his head and ordered Dou Yu.

Dou Yu understood, recruited the children around him to serve as Si Yanbucai, and went out to ask the children who were in charge of running errands to convey the will.

When Dou Yu turned around and came back, Si Yan had already chatted with Si Ning, and they were still very happy.

"The autumn hunt is coming, and the emperor's sister is also coming. I took the emperor's sister to hunt together. I remember that the emperor's sister is also good at riding and shooting." Si Yan suddenly remembered the autumn hunting. Si Ning had been thinking too much. It is also good for her to have a chance to relax.

"Okay!" Si Ning looked at Si Yan's smile, and suddenly remembered the old days, when his imperial brother took her to practice riding and archery when he was a child, and enjoyed it happily under the sun.

After eating together, Si Ning's purpose of entering the palace was also achieved, so he didn't stay long and left the palace directly.

In the early morning of the second day, the imperial edict of granting marriage was passed on.All civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty were thinking about the deep meaning of these two edicts, including Cai Shoufu.He thought he didn't reveal too much, he just asked for a marriage.

Today, Si Yan saw Wei Chun, Wei Chun was the head of military officers and the position of marquis.Wei Chun naturally had a place in the Xiaochaohui, Si Yan cast his eyes on Wei Chun, but Wei Chun avoided it, his eyes narrowed, looking at the ground of the main hall.

"Qing plays while you have a foundation, and retreats if you have no foundation." Si Yan immediately lost all mood, and said with a blank face.

"The minister has his own principles...!" Feng Xianggang stood up and before he finished speaking, he saw Wei Chun slowly stepping out.

"I have my own play!" Wei Chun leaned over to salute, his voice louder than Feng Xiang's.

"Wei Hou, please tell me!" Si Yan ignored Feng Xiang directly.

Seeing this, Feng Xiang had a bad premonition in his heart, and his brows were tightly frowned.

"I request the decree to appoint Dali Temple Minister Xu Jinnian as the Zhongshu Ling to be in charge of the Zhongshu for His Majesty." Wei Chun took out the memorial and went directly to the front of the imperial court.

Looking at the memorial in front of him, Si Yan raised his hand to take it, and looked through it carefully.Seeing the contents inside, Si Yan gradually felt joy in his heart.

"Ridiculous!" Cai Shoufu immediately snorted coldly.

"Wei Hou speaks carefully!" Feng Xiang raised his eyebrows and looked at Wei Chun coldly.

Both Feng Xiang and Cai Shoufu thought that Wei Chun hadn't gone to court in the past few days because he was stumbled by the death of old Wei Hou, but they didn't expect that this was creating a bigger hole for them and forcing them to jump.

"What do Feng Xiang and Cai Shoufu want to say?" Si Yan spoke in a gentle voice patiently.

Feng Xiang and Cai Shoufu glanced at each other, thinking in their hearts, and after a while, Feng Xiang stood up.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Xu is a talented young man, which is indeed very valuable. However, there are six books involved in Zhongshu, and a person with outstanding qualifications and abilities is needed. In terms of ability, Wang Chun has been in charge of the Ministry of War for nearly ten years and has never made a mistake. In terms of qualifications, Wang Chun is The old man in the six parts is the most familiar with the six parts." Feng Xiang analyzed the pros and cons, and instantly dismissed what Xu Jinnian said as useless.

"Your Majesty, what Feng Xiang said is very true, Mr. Xu is still inexperienced, how can he be in charge of the Six Departments of Zhongshu?" After seeing Feng Xiang finished speaking, Cai Shoufu did not forget to come up with a line, and then stepped on Xu Jinnian.

Si Yan was not in a hurry, so he quietly listened to Feng and Cai, and then looked at Wei Chun.Wei Chun had made sufficient preparations today and was determined to help Si Yan win the post of Zhongshuling for Xu Jinnian.

"What Feng Xiang said is very true, but, is it just for the sake of seniority to be an official and enter politics?" Wei Chun raised his eyes, and his eyes swept across the princes behind him.The cold aura instantly frightened many civil servants and generals, and they all lowered their heads.

"Of course not!" Someone in the crowd muttered.

Wei Chun smiled sarcastically: "That's right, if promotion is based only on seniority, then wouldn't the court be full of old people, what good will it do to the court?"

"Feng Xiang, take a look at this, and then ask Wang Chun behind you if he has such political achievements, and then let's talk about who should be the Zhongshuling." Si Yan handed the booklet in his hand to Feng Xiang.

When Feng Xiang got the book, he gritted his teeth secretly at a glance, this is not a book, this is a book from all peoples.Xu Jinnian had served as Weixi's political history for several years, and he had done many things that benefited the country and the people. The most famous thing was to personally save the flood.The local people were grateful for Xu Jinnian's meritorious deeds, and sent tens of thousands of people to write letters to praise Xu Jinnian.This is the Wanmin Book, with dense bloody handprints on it.

This book was written by some common people earlier, and they wanted to give it to Xu Jinnian, but Xu Jinnian didn't want to gain fame, so he didn't accept it.After changing hands, it fell into Wei Chun's hands. Wei Chun thought that he would use it one day, but he didn't expect to really use it.
