"However, the Emperor is afraid of Prince Donglin. If this is done, several princes will restrict each other, and it will not be our Holy Majesty who will benefit."
"High, really high. It is indeed the emperor. This move is really good."
Hearing this, Ling Yun forgot the task Wang Yiyao gave him and hurried back to the palace.
"Princess, I have something important to report."
"Wang Yiyao was about to go to bed, but the child was already sleeping soundly. She got dressed and came out."
"What's wrong? Why are you so anxious?"
Ling Yun breathed heavily, "My subordinates eavesdropped on the conversation between Commander Wu and Gao Qing, and they said it was... they said it was..."
Wang Yiyao poured a cup of tea for Ling Yun, "Drink some water first and then talk slowly. Look at how out of breath you are."
Ling Yun finished his tea and continued to talk, "Gao Qing said that the emperor has long known that the injury to King Shu was not done by the prince. The emperor tacitly allowed King An to manipulate all this behind the scenes in order to weaken the power of our prince, and there are a few
Only when the princes restrain each other can the emperor's position be stable."
What Ling Yun said suddenly made Wang Yiyao sober up. No wonder the emperor refused to listen to his explanation and refused to let him continue the investigation. It turned out that the emperor himself had already made his wishful thinking.
"The emperor is indeed the emperor. He only has his own throne in his heart and has no sense of brotherhood at all."
"Princess, what should we do next? Is the prince unable to come out?"
"Okay, you go back first. I will inform you if anything happens. Have a good sleep today."
Wang Yiyao was sitting on a chair, drinking tea one cup after another. It seemed that she could no longer save Feng Minyi by the method she had thought of before.
It is still necessary to use the method of besieging Wei and rescuing Zhao, which is more appropriate.
In the early morning of the next day, Wang Yiyao got up early and went to the Duke of Guo's house on his way back from his early morning visit.
"Ling Yun, is the Duke coming back this way?"
"Princess, this is the road that my subordinates are inquiring about."
While the two were looking at each other, Wang Yiyao saw the Duke's sedan chair in the distance.
"Princess, here you come, here you come."
When the Duke's sedan walked in, Wang Yiyao stepped forward and said, "I wonder if it would be convenient for the Duke to say a few words."
The Duke of Guo opened the curtain through the window of the sedan and saw that it was Wang Yiyao, "It's the princess, stop the sedan quickly."
Wang Yiyao stepped forward and asked, "I want to ask, the emperor is anxious to come back this time, but what's the matter?"
The Duke of Guo glanced around and whispered, "There is another riot in the south. The emperor is so anxious about this that his voice is hoarse. Not even after lunch, the ministers will go into the palace to discuss this matter."
"Oh, that's it. Then I won't disturb you. Mr. Guo, go slowly."
"Princess, stay."
Wang Yiyao didn't know what else the Duke of Guo had to do with her. "Master, what else do you have to do?"
"I want to say that you don't need to be too anxious about the prince's affairs. We are working on a solution."
"Okay, okay, don't rush, don't rush."
After bidding farewell to the Duke, Wang Yiyao returned to the mansion, and she seemed to have a solution in mind.
After having lunch and resting for a while, the Duke and the ministers were summoned to the palace again by the emperor. This time Prince An was also summoned together.
"How about it, dear ladies, you have discussed the candidate. It has been two full days now. I can wait, but the people in the south are suffering from the rioters, and they cannot wait."
At this time, everyone suggested to King An, "Your Majesty, I think it is better to send King An to suppress it. King An will guard the border to deal with these rioters. It should be nothing."
"Yes, yes."
"King An, you are extremely brave in dealing with those barbarians, but what are those rioters?"
King An did not expect that he would be pushed forward, so he decisively refused, "Your Majesty, I don't know the geographical conditions of the south very well, and my soldiers and horses are all cavalry, and I am not very good at fighting in the Central Plains."
"Oh, what are you afraid of? King An, you are so brave, why don't you just ask the emperor to select some capable soldiers for you from among the old generals?"
King An did not expect that these ministers would be so messy and unruly, and that he had already rejected them so obviously, and they were so unwilling to let them go.
"My king is not experienced enough in leading troops, so this opportunity should be left to a few generals."
The Emperor saw that everyone was pushing one another, and no one was willing to take the initiative to go to the south to quell the riots. At this time, someone mentioned Feng Minyi in a low voice below.
"If the King of Donglin were here, he would definitely go there on his own initiative. Look at all of you, you are all cowering."
He said this in a low voice, but the emperor heard it. Gao Zhan glanced at the emperor, and the sadness on his face deepened.
The emperor himself was also thinking, yes, if Feng Minyi was here, he would definitely go there on his own initiative. Every time Xi Qin was in trouble, he would take the initiative to go, but this time without him, there has been no suitable candidate for two days.
"Okay, don't argue anymore. I will give you some time to think about it carefully. You must give me an answer tomorrow no matter what, otherwise we will vote and let's call it a night. I'm tired."
"let's go."
"Everyone, let's go back and think about it."
King An returned to his mansion with an angry look on his face. Gu Li saw that something was not right about his expression and took the initiative to ask.
"My lord, what's wrong with you? Why are you unhappy?"
"Just now in the court, some people actually suggested that I, the king, should go to quell the rebellion. Grandma, this is simply crazy."
"What? They are really tired of living with your precious body. If you have this idea, does the emperor agree?"
"I refused because I was not familiar with the geographical conditions there. I am afraid that tomorrow the emperor will really listen to those people's suggestions and let me go. Then, the woman Wang Yiyao will use some tricks to rescue Feng Minyi, but
It’s a failure.”
When Gu Li heard what King An said, the viciousness in her eyes was suddenly revealed, "My lord, why don't we just deal with King Donglin in these two days."
King An glanced at Gu Li and said, "You are a very vicious woman, I think so, but we don't know anyone in the emperor's side, so how could we get into the prison? We should have started with Mulan."
King An felt a little regretful that he had missed the best opportunity. He just hoped that the emperor would not let him go tomorrow.
When the Duke of Guo came back from the palace, Wang Yiyao was already at his house. Before he entered the house, he heard his wife's laughter.
"Madam, why are you smiling so happily? What joke did the princess tell you?"
"Master, you are back. Princess, please chat with our master, and I will leave first."
