What does dozing off with a pillow mean?

Here, Zhang Shi and Zhu Yi were planning how to legitimately trip up Ren Li, when Jiao Jing arrived.

Seeing the anxious look of the prince-in-law, Zhang Xi tentatively asked.

"But in this case, if we can't convince Ren Hou by then, I'm afraid..."

What Jiao Jing said was not so clear, but the meaning is actually the same.

He did not agree with directly confronting the Ministry of War in court discussions, as the probability of success was too low.

The solution he came up with was to persuade Zhang Shi and Zhu Yi to "retain their strength."

This is a nice thing to say, but to put it bluntly, no matter how hard we try, we may not be able to stop the court discussion, let alone if we are 'retaining our strength'.

Jiao Jing's proposal was basically to persuade Zhang Shi to give up trying to prevent the army from reorganizing the army at the court meeting, and instead to take advantage of the situation during the implementation process.

But as a result, Ren Li, who has been busy preparing for this, will definitely not be willing to give up.

So doing this is actually a bit like cutting things off first and playing them later.

What puzzled Zhang Xi the most was that he was very sure that Jiao Jing was different from himself and he did not want to bring down Ren Li.

Because doing so would be of no benefit to the strength of the Supreme Emperor's party.

After all, Jiao Jing is a relative. Unlike Zhang Shi, his first consideration is the interests of his family. What he considers is the interests of the Supreme Emperor and his party.

There is no doubt that the existence of Ren Li is beneficial to the entire Supreme Emperor's party.

That's why Zhang Xi asked this question. If they really did this, Ren Li would still insist on having his own way in the end. I'm afraid it would be a mess.

Jiao Jing pondered, shook his head and said.

"These days, I have been thinking about the reason why Marquis Ren is so eager, and I have some guesses. If nothing else, he was probably involved in the military garrison when he was at the border. Therefore, once the court proposal is passed, Marquis Ren will be

It may be difficult to escape.”

"But, even so, I still feel that the risk of a head-on confrontation in court discussions is too high. Regardless of Ren Hou's current position in the court, no matter how big the case he committed in the first place, it cannot be shaken in a moment."

"So, this matter can be solved completely. I believe that Marquis Ren is not ignorant of current affairs. If something cannot be done, he will not do it by force."

As a result, Zhang Min and Zhu Yi looked at each other and saw the clear look in each other's eyes.

I see……

Naturally, Jiao Jing didn't know why Ren Li was so eager to stop the military camp.

However, Zhang Xi happened to know about it, and it was fresh news.

If nothing unexpected happens, I'm afraid Ren Li already knows that the person he sent out originally was captured by Yang Xin.

It should be said that Jiao Jing's thoughts and ideas are correct.

Although the invasion and occupation of the military camp was serious, it was a long time ago and it was not Ren Li's family who did these things. In addition, Ren Li was now in a high position and had a high position of power. To bring him down, detailed and thorough evidence was needed.

So it will take a long time to check it out.

In this case, no matter how big of a hole Ren Li made, he would always have a chance to make up for it. As long as there was even the slightest flaw in the evidence finally presented, it could be an opportunity for a comeback.

However, Jiao Jing obviously would not have thought that in addition to the military camp, Ren Li had also done something fatal.

Once the court proposal to reorganize the military camps is passed, the imperial court will inevitably send officials to various places to once again check the situation of the military fields and border troops.

By then, many things will no longer be hidden.

Everything else is fine. Once the assassination of an important official of the imperial court is confirmed, there will be no chance of recovery...

Then everything became clear.

Looking at each other again, Zhu Yi spoke.

"In this case, let's listen to the Prince Consort and try to persuade the Marquis. In fact, before the Prince Consort came, the Second Master and I actually had doubts in our hearts. We felt that doing so would be too risky, not to mention..."

At this point, Zhu Yi happened to pause here and there, seeming a little hesitant.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Xi asked along the lines of the conversation.

"What, my young master, do you have anything else to say? There are no other people here, so you don't have to hold your tongue. It doesn't matter if you say something wrong."

So, Zhu Yi glanced at Jiao Jing, then frowned and said.

"Prince-in-law, Second Master, it's not that my nephew wants to hide it. It's just that my nephew is just making insinuations about this matter. I heard my father-in-law mention it a few times when he was drunk, but my father-in-law... In short, I can't do things that are unclear.

That’s right, so my nephew doesn’t dare to speak nonsense.”

The half-hidden words of these words aroused the curiosity of the two people present.

Zhu Yi's father-in-law was naturally Hu Hui from the Ministry of Rites.

Hearing that it was related to the Ministry of Rites, Jiao Jing suddenly thought of something, leaned forward and expressed concern.

"But it has something to do with the East Palace?"

Zhang Mian also followed closely and said: "Young Master, whether you are doing it right or not, please tell me first and we will go over it together. It is better than you keeping it in your heart alone. If it is really related to the East Palace, once it happens,

The delay is a big deal!"

Seeing the nervous look of the two people, Zhu Yi hesitated again and again, and finally said.

"Actually, it's just two sentences, nothing special."

"During these days, the marriage between Jing'an Bo's Mansion and Zhennan Prince's Mansion has come to an end, and my father-in-law has also been free. He often visits his wife, and I occasionally accompany her to talk."

"The night before yesterday, my father-in-law was in a good mood and got drunk. In his words, he mentioned the palace and secretly sent a message to the Ministry of Rites. Therefore, the Ministry of Rites has been busy with the Spring Festival in recent days, and other things have been pushed to the back.

With..."

Sure enough!

Jiao Jing's brows were furrowed and his expression was rather ugly, which made Zhang Mian beside him feel confused again.

But the next moment, Jiao Jing opened his mouth and answered his question.

"Second Master, Young Master, let me tell you the truth, the second thing I want to say when I come over today is this!"

Zhang Min asked at the right time: "Why, did the prince-in-law also get the news? Is this true?"

Jiao Jing nodded and said.

"You two should wait until the last time, since Mr. Zhu Ge promoted the preparation of the East Palace in the court, the Ministry of Rites has received the order and started to prepare the ceremony notes for the departure of the East Palace. According to the schedule, it can be submitted no matter what before the year."

"However, there has been no news until now. I secretly sent someone to the Ministry of Rites to inquire about it. Only then did I know that as early as half a month ago, the Ministry of Rites had already completed the ritual notes. However, it has been delayed, and there is no

Pass it up."

"The ministers have revised it many times, but every time they went back to the minister's office or the minister's office, they were rejected. They only said there was a mistake, but they didn't say where the mistake was. This matter has now been semi-stagnant in the Ministry of Rites.

Come down."

"If what the young master said is true, and the Ministry of Rites really accepted the secret message from the palace, then I'm afraid this matter will be troublesome!"

It became quiet in the study, and the faces of the three of them became unsightly.

Yes, during this period, their eyes were fixed on the military camp, how could they forget this!

The East Palace is the most important!

Now that the Supreme Emperor has retired to Nangong, it is impossible for him to intervene in government affairs openly. If he wants to affect the court situation, then the Crown Prince cannot get around it.

This is also the reason why the Supreme Emperor preferred to return from Xuan Mansion in despair.

Zhu Yi narrowed her eyes and suddenly said in the stagnant atmosphere.

"Two uncles, my nephew has always had doubts in his heart. The emperor is really not afraid of rectifying the army in such a big way, which will cause a fierce battle between civil and military officials at the court meeting?"

"Looking back on the past, our emperor always has a back-up plan when doing things. Could it be..."

Zhu Yi didn't say the rest, but the meaning was already very clear.

Jiao Jing's face was solemn and he said coldly.

"If nothing else, the young master must have guessed right. The East Palace is our weak spot, but it happens to be in the hands of the emperor."

"In the court discussion, if the dispute really gets serious, then throwing out the East Palace is the way to resolve the civil-military dispute."

"In this way, not only has the charter for reorganizing the army been passed, but it also appears that we, the nobles, have a guilty conscience and are acting recklessly. Those civil servants will definitely go to great lengths to investigate if they are provoked by us."

"And our Majesty, who acted as a mediator and calmly resolved a fierce court dispute, should naturally be praised as the Holy Emperor."

After the great victory at Wala, everyone had fought many times overtly and covertly around the matter of welcoming back the Supreme Emperor.

Naturally, Consort Jiao also figured out some tricks.

The emperor who is currently on the throne is best at saving face and face.

You are obviously trying to disgust people, but you still have to make people happy and grateful.

They have suffered countless losses with this method.

Hearing this, Zhu Yi was obviously a little anxious and said.

"If this is really the case, what should we do? Prince Consort, it is a big deal for the East Palace to leave the palace and prepare for the palace, so we cannot delay it!"

Jiao Jing glanced at Zhu Yi and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
