Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Li You's light words caused the wind in the Wenhua Palace to change drastically, and there was another turning point.  People who are a little less thoughtful can no longer keep up with this ever-changing situation.

    The person he said wanted to be the eunuch in charge of the ceremony, everyone knew it was Duan Zhien, the emperor's companion.  It would not be an exaggeration to say that Eunuch Duan's desire to become a eunuch and the head of the family was known to everyone, even the emperor understood it.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? However, if Eunuch Duan wants to achieve his goal, Eunuch Mai, the current eunuch, Mai Cheng'en, the chief ceremonial officer, is the stone standing in the way.

    But Eunuch Mai was born in Cisheng Palace.  When the Queen Mother was in power, he was appointed by the Queen Mother as the Chief of Ceremonies and the eunuch in charge of seals. It can be said that he was a close confidant of the Queen Mother Qian.

    So here¡¯s the subtlety, Duan Zhien wanted to usurp the position of the Queen Mother¡¯s confidant, Eunuch Mai, while Huang Yong deliberately provoked a conflict between the Emperor and the Queen Mother in another place, and Duan Zhien and Huang Yong seemed to be from the same family.  The logical relationship here is worth pondering and analyzing

    The smart people in the palace once again automatically figured out many conspiracy plots. If the rich associations and exciting plots were known to "innocent" parties such as Duan Zhien and Huang Yong, they would feel inferior.

    In fact, except for a few slanderous words, Eunuch Duan did not elevate Li You's matter to any high level. Li You may be a very influential focus, but he may not be the focus of the power structure.

    But he didn¡¯t expect that Li You would take the initiative to escalate the matter time and time again, using true and false means, to the point where even he, the emperor¡¯s companion, could hardly bear it.

    Mai Chengen, who was dragged out by Li You for no apparent reason, stood quietly on the left side of the emperor, feeling dumbfounded.  Since entering the palace.  He has always been low-key and silent, with no sense of presence.  Because Eunuch Mai didn't think that today's incident had anything to do with him - it was just a struggle between Li You's side and Duan Zhien's side, and he, the leader of the eunuchs, could completely stay out of the matter.

    ¡°Who would have expected that Li You was talking nonsense and going around in a few circles, and the flames of war were burned on him, and he was not allowed to continue to pretend to be a turtle.  If the matter involved the Queen Mother, he could not sit quietly and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.

    Today¡¯s events have developed to this extent, and it¡¯s not just Eunuch Mai who was hit by an arrow while he was still lying down.  Li You's backers and accomplices were also dumbfounded.

    They are all a bit pretentious, and Li You doesn¡¯t seem to need their help or rescue.  Li You simply took advantage of the useless Qian Guojiu.  By designing several scenarios that are difficult to distinguish between true and false, you can get out of trouble and defeat the enemy.

    This time, Li You probably didn¡¯t want to create a conflict between the emperor and the emperor, and many of his previous actions were just feints.  Probably to confuse Duan Zhien and others.

    Others are busy with brain supplement to become more and more confusing plots, lest they can't catch up with the latest plot, but Tianzi experiences the feeling of being betrayed!  Yes, it feels like being betrayed by Duan Daban!

    ?? Could it be that in Duan Zhien¡¯s heart, his personal selfishness as the Chief of Ceremonies is more important than his dignity as the emperor?  Could it be that Duan Zhien was not someone who would sincerely think about him, the emperor?

    Li You was secretly happy after observing his words and expressions.  It is really useless to expose the cronies around the boss, such as Duan Zhien, for doing bad things. Even if Duan Zhien commits murder and arson, the emperor may not be able to deal with him.  Because no matter how bad the dog is, it is still your own dog.

    But as long as he can make the emperor suspicious that he seems to be not loyal enough, Eunuch Duan's downfall will be just around the corner.  An unfaithful dog has no value in existence.

    Thinking of this, Li You added another sentence: "I impeach Duan Zhi'en as my own authority, deliberately causing trouble, and making Your Majesty an unfilial person! This is what Your Majesty must pay attention to!"

    Emperor Jinghe was slightly moved and impeached Duan Zhien for instigating the relationship between the emperor and his ministers.  He can be non-committal, and he can be more inclined to the officials around him.  But now there is an impeachment of alienating mother and son. Out of filial piety, he still dares to remain noncommittal?  Does he dare to be more inclined to be a traitor?

    It was also the first time that Eunuch Duan encountered such an extremely unfavorable situation, and he was really anxious.

    Strictly speaking, he was not involved in Huang Yong's hoarding of coal. With his status, he did not have to pay attention to these small things.  But Eunuch Duan, in order to win over Huang Yong's godfather, imprisoned Tan Zhangyin.  So he protected Huang Yong.

    Before Li You resigned, he used the matter of hoarding coal to attack the internal prison. Eunuch Duan took advantage of the situation and led an army to attack Li You, "buying a direct invitation to the emperor to increase his reputation."  Although the great victory caused Li You to lose his official position, in everyone's eyes, it was confirmed that Eunuch Duan was the mastermind behind the scenes, and Xixin Company was naturally happy to do so.

    After that, Eunuch Duan could no longer explain clearly, and the responsibilities that he should bear could not be escaped. Therefore, Eunuch Duan could not help but refute Li You and said: "Li You is a traitor and loyal, and lies should not be believed! Even though the Holy Mother has a kind heart,  But it is true that Li You took the opportunity to confuse people, incite riots, and plot evil. He also acted deceitfully and trapped himself in prison.; But it is said that Li You's words were deafening to the emperor's ears, and he felt many differences.

    The advice of other ministers may be full of truth, but Li You did not have any moral content this time.  Every sentence is from his perspective and standpoint, as if it were a frank conversation between friends.  It was strange, why did he still feel that those words contained a bit of the tone of an imperial sister?

    "In any case, these are indeed loyal and bold words. People who are not sincere cannot say them," the emperor judged.

    I also remembered that Duan Daban once said that your Majesty does not need to be afraid of failure. You can get familiar with the courtiers and civil servants through the process of promoting Bai Shilang to the cabinet. You can try the depth of the water and the shallowness of the water. A little dispute is nothing.

    To paraphrase Li You, is this all just to provoke a fight between clams and snipe, and then the fisherman will benefit?  Or is it just to further isolate yourself?

    Thinking about it carefully, it is indeed a bit like this, damn it!  The emperor felt betrayed again.
