Conquer the king with power

A morning came down, and the smoke was everywhere.As a suspect, Lin Jian, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, was imprisoned in Dali Temple by the decree of the banquet.

As one of the presiding judges, Marquis Wei was invited to the Hall of Zhaohe by the banquet after his downfall.

Back at the Hall of Zhaohe, Si Yan took off his heavy dragon robe, put on a light uniform, and sat in front of the desk.

"Your Majesty!" When Wei Chun came in with Dou Yu, Si Yan was reading the papers presented by the cabinet today.

"Your Majesty, please greet me!" Wei Chun knelt on one knee and bowed to greet him.

Si Yan put down the notebook and raised his eyes: "I'm safe, Marquis Wei, please."

Wei Chun got up as he said, not daring to approach the banquet.During the journey following Dou Yu just now, he wanted to understand something.

"Is Your Majesty really just thinking about balancing the two parties in the court?" Wei Chun asked first.Si Yan invited him here at this time, he must also want to talk about the case of the Ministry of Rites today.

"What do you think I want to do?" Si Yan leaned back, without even using "zhen", and looked straight at Wei Chun.

Wei Chun lowered his eyes and smiled lightly: "Your Majesty wants to get rid of the two parties!"

Si Yan frowned, his eyes remained calm, and his expression remained unchanged.

"Wei Chun, you continue." Si Yan asked Wei Chun to continue.

"Your Majesty should have known about the affairs of the Ministry of Rites before he took the throne, and now he is not trying to balance the two parties." Wei Chun looked at Si Yan's smile, a little helpless and bitter.

"Your Majesty is just the beginning now. I remember that when His Majesty was the prince, he proposed a decision to supervise the officials, which was finally rejected by the two parties. Now that His Majesty is enthroned, he naturally wants to do something. His Majesty wants to be a wise king." Wei Chun raised his eyes to meet the gaze of his boss.

Si Yan nodded, not surprised at all, Wei Chun was known for being smart and wise since he was a child.

"Your Majesty takes Xu Jinnian as the vanguard and minister as the sharp edge, pointing at Feng and Cai's two parties with sharp sharpness. Your Majesty really has a good plan, and it is not in vain for the late emperor's careful training of you." Wei Chun didn't understand until just now in the court. The idea of ​​a banquet.

It is not so easy to deal with the two parties.Feng Cai has been entrenched in the imperial court for decades, and his roots are deep.The two parties depend on each other and fight each other, and the two complement each other.Feng Cai is not a fool either, he knows that both parties are in power, and neither party is indispensable.

Just like this, a person is needed to break the current connection and involvement of the two parties from the outside, so that they can restrain each other and be weakened at the same time.

"Why is it a minister! Aren't you afraid that the minister will turn against you? The minister holds the [-]th army in his hand and is in charge of the imperial city's forbidden army. In case the minister and Feng Xiangcai's chief assistant jointly evade His Majesty. At that time, Your Majesty will regret it." Wei Chun The tone was calm, although there was some dissatisfaction in his heart, but it did not show on the surface.

Hearing these words, Si Yan got up and walked in front of Wei Chun, raised his head slightly and met Wei Chun's eyes.In the deep eyes, there was some anger burning at this moment.

"Wei Chun, didn't you say that you like me? If it's as you said, then your liking is really not worth mentioning!" Si Yan's breath fell on Wei Chun's lips with a trace of hot tide .

"Your Majesty, it is the most shameless to take advantage of other people's feelings!" Wei Chun lowered his eyes, and the eyes that were staring at the banquet did not move.

"Wei Chun, you did it voluntarily, and I didn't take advantage of it." Si Yan shook his head, then reached out and pressed a finger on Wei Chun's chin.

Wei Chun couldn't help laughing, and looked up, with a trace of scarlet in the corner of his eyes.What Si Yan said was right, he was willing.Knowing it clearly, she still has to catch up with the cheap.

"Presumably His Majesty will use the matter of the Ministry of Rites as an excuse to purge the Zhongshu and isolate the cabinet." Wei Chun didn't want to argue with Si Yan about whether he was happy or not, so he continued with the matter just now.

"Yes! If Wei Hou can directly win the cabinet, I have nothing to say." Si Yan raised his finger up, and tapped Wei Chun's lips, ambiguous and seductive.

Wei Chun grabbed Si Yan's hand violently, and took Si Yan's area into his arms.

"Since that's the case, why don't you give me a reward, Your Majesty! You can't do it, let's make this knife for nothing!" Wei Chun raised his eyebrows.

"What does Marquis Wei want?" Si Yan asked.

Wei Chun didn't answer, he lowered his head and kissed Si Yan's lips, rubbing hands repeatedly.

Si Yan was still calm, neither took the initiative nor resisted, and let Wei Chun do whatever he wanted.

When the kiss reached the point where both of them were out of breath, Wei Chun let go of Si Yan, and Si Yan raised his eyes lightly and looked at Wei Chun with a smile on his mouth.

"Your Majesty, this jade pendant is very good. How about giving it to the minister?" Wei Chun picked up the jade pendant that was often hung on the waist of the banquet.

This jade pendant was carried by Si Yan since she was a child and never left her body.

When Si Yan was born, the first emperor was overjoyed.He ordered Lantian, which is rich in jade, to pick out the best piece of jade from thousands of pieces of jade as a tribute.He also ordered the Weaving Department, dozens of skilled craftsmen to carve it into shape.Later, the eminent monks of the Royal Buddhist Temple were invited to consecrate and pray for blessings.In order that Si Yan can have profound blessings and grow up safely.

"Wei Chun, do you know? Why did the former emperor make me the crown prince before he died?" Si Yan suddenly smiled, and while laughing, he reached out to touch Wei Chun's chin, and asked a question that had nothing to do with Yupei .

Seeing the smile in Si Yan's eyes, Wei Chun felt terrified, absurd and grotesque.

"I don't know!" Wei Chun shook his head.

He really didn't know that Si Yan was the only child of the first emperor, but the first emperor had no intention of making Si Yan the crown prince.It wasn't until the first emperor became seriously ill that the crown prince was established at the suggestion of Feng Xiang.

Feng Quang sometimes mentioned the King of Lingnan who was far away in the south of Lingnan. If the former emperor had not announced to the world to establish a prince, it would easily destabilize the hearts of the people and allow those who are interested to take advantage of it.The first emperor listened to Feng Xiang's words, established the crown prince with great fanfare, and then offered sacrifices to heaven and ancestors, and finally passed away regretfully in the Taimiao.

"Because you smiled affectionately at the banquet back then, which made the first emperor aware of the clue. The first emperor was afraid and disgusted, so he refused to make me the crown prince for a long time." Si Yan was still smiling.

What Si Yan didn't tell Wei Chun was that before the late emperor passed away, he left a will to execute him.The death of Beihou Xianzhen was even written by the first emperor.Because the Marquis of Zhenbei had no way to teach his children first, Wei Chun was allowed to do such unethical things, and even ruined the banquet.

After Wei Chun listened, he retreated again and again, staggering unsteadily, and then he lost his mind.

Wei Chun was stunned for a long time before he regained consciousness.

"Your servant deserves to die, sin, deserve, ten thousand, die!" Wei Chun woke up and immediately knelt down, slamming on the ground every word.Is Si Yan blaming him, or blaming him?

"Wei Hou likes it, so give it to Wei Hou." Si Yan still smiled, and he calmly tore off the jade pendant from his waist, and handed it over.

Wei Chun's throat rolled, and his face was serious: "Your Majesty, it's good to keep it. If you don't deserve it, I will leave!" After a few words in a hurry, Wei Chun couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed out of the door.

Seeing Wei Chun's somewhat embarrassed back, Si Yan raised his head and chuckled, then choked up again.The dullness is stuck in my heart, I can't get up or down, it hurts a little, but the pain is not severe, it's just dull.

"Your Majesty?" Dou Yu watched Wei Chun rushing out of Zhaohe Hall, thinking that Si Yan and Wei Chun had quarreled again, so he came in immediately, seeing Si Yan's appearance, he called out in doubt.

"It's okay!" Si Yan calmed down.

"Wei Hou is this?" Dou Yu asked cautiously.

"Just now I just told Wei Hou what is the most ruthless emperor's family." Si Yan's eyes were as usual, calm and unwavering.

"Ah?" Dou Yu was completely taken aback.

Before Dou Yu could react, Si Yan ordered, "Bring to Xu Jinnian."

Since Wei Chun saw his intention, it was inevitable that Xu Jinnian would also see it. In this case, he might as well explain it clearly to Xu Jinnian.That's all for others, Xu Jinnian is the last person who doesn't know how to act on other people's eyes, telling him to guess the holy will, it is better to kill him.

What Si Yan is most worried about now is that Cai Shoufu and Feng Xianghui can see that once the two join forces and each takes a step back, it will not be very good.That's why at today's court meeting, the Ministry of Industry proposed water conservancy repairs, so he would agree with Wei Chun's proposal.

It would be easier for Cai and Feng's parties to focus on other places instead of the Ministry of Rites.

Xu Jinnian came over in half an hour, and Dou Yu led him in as usual. This time Xu Jinnian seemed to understand him very well, and he dug in his sleeve for a long time, as if giving money to Dou Yu.

"Your Excellency, you don't have to be so polite!" Dou Yu hurriedly stopped him. After Si Yan said it last time, he explained to the children around him, and he also paid attention to it.

"Mr. Dou, don't need to be too polite!" Xu Jinnian also greeted politely, and then took out a handful of dried sweet potatoes from his sleeve and stuffed them into Mr. Dou's hands: "I made it myself, it's delicious, Mr. Dou, don't be too polite. "

After stuffing, Xu Jinnian strode inward. Si Yan was turning his head to watch him stuff Dou Gong. He didn't see exactly what stuff he stuffed, but Si Yan was sure it wasn't silver or gold.

"I see Your Majesty!" Xu Jinnian didn't dare to raise his head, and knelt down directly.

"Get up!" Si Yan sat in front of the desk by the window, and he was still on the desk, ashamed and pitiful being bullied by Wei Chun.

"Your Majesty, the purpose of summoning ministers is for the case of the Ministry of Rites, right?" Xu Jinnian was almost certain.

Si Yan nodded: "Yes! You should know that when I was still the crown prince, I proposed to set up a special office to monitor all officials, but was rejected by Feng Xiang and Cai Shoufu. I want to put this matter on the agenda, the Ministry of Rites This case is an opportunity for me to bring up this matter again."

After listening to Xu Jinnian, he thought about it carefully, and he fully agreed with Si Yan's proposal back then.The imperial examination has perfected the previous system of selecting officials and selecting talents, but there is no perfect method for supervising officials.The method proposed by Si Yan back then was indeed very effective.It's a pity that this method has violated the interests of countless high-ranking officials in the court. Once it is established, it means that their situation of covering the sky with one hand will no longer exist.

"The case of the Ministry of Rites is just an introduction to lead to this proposal!" It was only then that Xu Jinnian understood the real purpose of the banquet to call him here.

"Not all, I still want to take this opportunity to eliminate Zhongshu and isolate the cabinet." Si Yan dragged out all his thoughts.

"Your Majesty!" Xu Jinnian was surprised.

"Do you know what this means? It means that the two parties will join forces to control the government. You are still young!" Xu Jinnian continued, two-thirds of the officials in the court are from Feng Cai The two parties, these people are naturally unwilling to watch the two parties have trouble.

Si Yan knew what Xu Jinnian was worried about. Behind him was Wei Chun, who held the military power!
