Chapter 187 188: Watching the fire from the other side
Song Nanyong took the place of the person who helped Qin Yuanjing frame him.
The emperor’s imperial decree has been issued, which has disturbed the entire court, but Song Nanyong is indeed a victim in this matter, and it cannot be said that the emperor did something wrong. The source of the trouble was caused by Qin Taifu’s son. In such a situation, Song Nanyong was not beaten down, but people were promoted two levels in a row. Are you angry?
After coming down to court, Yao Zongjing immediately caught up with Prime Minister Right, "Master Xiang, what do you mean Your Majesty?"
The Right Prime Minister walked forward slowly, listened to Yao Zongjing's words, thought about it for a while, and then slowly said: "The emperor wants to promote the Song family."
Yao Zongjing's face was very ugly, "Master, is this matter just left alone? Song Zhaoyi in the palace is already the emperor's favorite, and she will definitely be granted the title when she gives birth to the prince. Outside the palace, the emperor of the Song family still protects and climbs up. How can this be possible?"
How could Yao Zongjing not be in a hurry, Concubine Wan's situation in the palace is not good now, he knows about his own daughter, she has the arrogance of a talented woman, so she can't put down her face to invite favors.
Although the incident at the Shou Ci Palace this time did not benefit the Yao family, at least Yao Zongjing was slightly relieved to let his daughter stand up and do things.
If you continue to let things go like this, won't this harem be ruled by Song Zhaoyi?
The Right Prime Minister doesn’t like the people of the Song family to climb fast. The two brothers Song Nanyong and Song Nanzhen are both unique in being officials. Now they are seen by the emperor.
In the past, Prime Minister Right would definitely stand on the same front as Yao Zongjing, but now he feels guilty.
After all, Song Zhaoyi has contributed a lot to the Right Minister being able to overwhelm the Left Minister in front of the Emperor these few times.
It's a bit unkind to take advantage of others in the front foot and deal with their natal family in the back foot.
The right minister has always had a thick skin, and he couldn't do such a shameless thing at the moment.
He thought for a while, looked at Yao Zongjing and said meaningfully: "Zong Jing, don't look too short-sighted, why do you think the emperor promoted Song Nanyong? Who started this matter?"
Yao Zongjing thought for a while and said: "Qin Yuanjing." After a pause, "Xiangye means that the emperor is dissatisfied with Qin Taifu, so he has the courage to promote Song Nanyong?"
Qin Taifu has indeed reached out too much in the past two years.
The Prime Minister on the right heard Yao Zongjing put the matter on Qin Taifu, and he was slightly relieved, but he refused to show it on the face, and still said flatly: "The emperor is upright and ordered to strictly investigate illegal things. Now that the results have come out, it is natural to act according to the law."
The corners of Yao Zongjing's mouth twitched. Can he act according to the law even if he goes up two levels?
The emperor clearly favored Song Zhaoyi, so he favored the Song family.
After hearing this, Yao Zongjing knew that Prime Minister Right had no objection. After thinking carefully, he was targeting Taifu Qin. Taifu Qin had never had a good relationship with them, and Prime Minister Right was very happy to be able to add trouble to Taifu Qin.
Recalling that the left minister in the court strongly opposed it, but the right minister only said a few words and went through the motions before shutting up. Yao Zongjing still didn't understand.
The right minister wants to watch the fire from the other side.
Thinking about it, Yao Zongjing is not in a hurry anymore. The left ministers have been watching them closely recently, and now the Song family is leading the way to divert attention. Isn't this a good thing?
The Prime Minister is indeed the Prime Minister, and he is much better than them in terms of things.
Yao Zongjing left contentedly, the right minister did not leave the palace with a sullen face, but turned a corner and returned to the cabinet.
Han Zhengchun's daughter has now been promoted to a noble concubine, and has a very good relationship with Song Zhaoyi in the palace. Thinking of what his daughter wrote in his letter, he felt it necessary to talk to Han Zhengchun.
Han Zhengchun didn't really want to see the right minister, but he couldn't refuse in public, so he went to the cabinet with a sullen face.
The scribe gently opened the door and said to the inside: "Master, Han Yushi has arrived."
"please come in."
The scribe smiled at Han Zhengchun, "Han Yushi, the Prime Minister invites you in."
Han Zhengchun watched the clerk bow and retreat, took a deep breath, and then stepped into the cabinet.
Everyone in the cabinet has left the palace and returned to the mansion, and there is only the right minister in it. He stepped forward to salute, "I have seen the right minister."
"Master Han, sit down quickly." Prime Minister on the right said very kindly, with a gentle smile just right on his face.
Han Zhengchun glanced at Prime Minister Right, the guard in his heart deepened, and after taking his seat, he said: "Prime Minister Right asked the minister to come, do you have any orders?"
"Master Han, you and I are officials in the same dynasty. Although there are occasional disagreements in political views, it is not too much to draw swords, don't you think?" Prime Minister Right said with a smile.
Han Zhengchun couldn't figure out what the right minister was thinking, he didn't say yes or no, he just looked up at the right minister, "As a censor, I only do what I'm supposed to do."
The Right Prime Minister closed the memorial on the table with his hands, and the smile on his face remained unchanged, "What I admire most is Mr. Han's uprightness. You are very right."
Han Zhengchun didn't dare to be careless when he heard the right minister's words, and kept silent without answering.
The right minister sorted the memorials and put them away. He didn't care that Han Zhengchun didn't answer, but instead sighed and said, "The prime minister just heard about what happened to Concubine Han. Master Han should also know about it, right?"
Han Zhengchun didn't expect Prime Minister You to find him because of his daughter's affairs. Speaking of which, it was fortunate that Concubine Shu helped out that day. Could it be that Prime Minister Right used this to ask him to return favors?
Han Zhengchun frowned involuntarily, and was thinking about how to reply, when he heard the Prime Minister on the right say again: "Han Guifei's matter seems to be plotted by someone, but fortunately Song Zhaoyi helped, otherwise I'm afraid it won't be easy to get out."
Han Zhengchun was taken aback for a moment, the Prime Minister mentioned Song Zhaoyi but did not mention Concubine Shu, what is the meaning of this?
"For what happened to your concubine this time, it is fortunate that Concubine Shu helped her. If it hadn't been for Concubine Shu, the matter would not have fallen into the hands of Gong Zhengsi to seek justice." Han Zhengchun thought about it and said, no matter what, the Han family owed this favor, but he didn't know what the Prime Minister wanted.
The Prime Minister on the right looked at Han Zhengchun with a slight frown, and he could guess a little bit of his thoughts. It was nothing more than a matter of returning favors. He seemed to inadvertently said: "The truth about the Song family this time is astonishing. Qin Yuanjing is so arrogant and openly framed the court officials. If he can't stop here, won't everyone follow suit in the future? Master Han, don't you think so?"
Han Zhengchun's expression changed slightly, the prime minister actually wanted him to target Qin Taifu, which was not a good thing.
"The truth about Concubine Han's affairs has been found out. Duke Ding has been walking around with Taifu Qin a lot recently."
Han Zhengchun suddenly raised his head and looked to the right minister.
The right minister smiled slightly.
The things in the palace were done by An Fangyi's people. Duke Ding has many contacts with Qin Taifu, so this matter is related to Qin Taifu?
Happy weekend, today's update is complete, cute little ones.
