Chapter 642: 641 Turn over, this princess is not shocked
Chapter 642 641 Turn over, this princess is unfazed by favors and humiliations
Since ancient times, everyone who is the emperor wants to centralize power, respond to all calls, and everyone obeys orders; everyone who is a minister hopes that the emperor can delegate power, give them space for autonomy, and give them enough rights.
When it comes to power, the emperor and ministers are naturally opposed to each other. As long as they are in this position, their respective positions will not change and there will be no shortage of games between them.
Contrary to the fact that the Six Ministers did not want Ji Yun to hold a palace banquet, the emperor was unwilling to let the princesses and princesses participate and asked Ji Yun to distance himself from his relationship. But for the sake of important matters in the court, he did not mind making concessions on small things.
, Ji Yunkai had plenty of opportunities to make calculations, but to concentrate the imperial power was something that could only be met but not sought.
The emperor was impatient, so he issued an oral order that day, asking all the princesses, county princesses and princesses to cooperate with Ji Yunkai in organizing this year's palace banquet.
If the emperor speaks and supports, this matter will be easy to handle.
When the news reached Ji Yunkai's ears, Ji Yunkai was not surprised at all: "Although the emperor is not a very good person, he still has a lot of vision. Finally, all our hard work has not been in vain."
Of course she knew that she could not command the princesses of the clan, so she gave them the "letter of responsibility" and deliberately made it so serious that she asked them to go to the emperor.
She believed that as long as the emperor saw her arrangements for the palace banquet, he would definitely be moved.
When the time comes, even if it is to prove that her method is effective, the emperor will secretly escort her and make this year's palace banquet go smoothly.
After all, compared with the major events in the world, suppressing her is really not worth mentioning.
As for the reaction of the DPRK and Chinese ministers?
To be honest, Ji Yunkai didn't care at all. The person rushing in front was the emperor, and the emperor naturally blocked most of the artillery fire for her. Moreover, this matter was a game between the emperor and the ministers. How could those ministers have the time to keep an eye on her?
With her little shrimp?
So what if they had time to keep an eye on her?
Just because she is the Princess of Yanbei, those ministers have to think carefully if they want to touch her. She can do it secretly, but if they want to seriously hurt her life, those ministers have to consider the consequences...
"You can start getting ready. Our place... will be lively soon." The group of princesses, county princesses, and princesses must have lost their "responsibility letters", and those women will definitely come to the door when the time comes.
As someone who took advantage, Ji Yunkai said that she would be more generous and would never care about the previous attitudes of those women.
"Don't worry, Princess, we are all ready." The guards of Yanbei Palace were still a little skeptical at first, but after inquiring about the news from outside and knowing the emperor's movements, these three suspicions immediately turned into 120,000 confidence.
Their princess is really a god at predicting things. Her ability to turn her hands into clouds and turn her hands into rain is really astonishing.
In just three days, the princess not only reversed the situation, but also dragged the emperor and all the ministers into trouble. Under such circumstances, who had the time to stare at them and the prince far away in Yanbei?
?
Compared with distant Yanbei, the immediate rights were obviously more important to the emperor.
Not only the personal guards of Yanbei Palace admired Ji Yunkai, but also the princesses, county princesses, and princesses also admired Ji Yunkai's methods.
They went to the palace to cry, thinking that the emperor would reprimand Ji Yunkai, but they didn't expect that the emperor would be totally unreasonable and only asked them to cooperate with Ji Yunkai in organizing the palace banquet. He also had people beat them in private, saying that the palace banquet was very...
Importantly, only success is allowed and failure is not allowed. He will be rewarded heavily if he does well, otherwise he will be reprimanded.
When the princesses, county princesses, and older princesses heard this, they felt aggrieved. Needless to say, they wanted to slap Ji Yunkai in the face, but they were slapped in the face by Ji Yunkai instead. This incident was so noisy.
I can't be more upset.
However, when the emperor revealed that if he did well, he would consider giving their second son a title, or let the eldest son inherit the title in his original position, all the princesses, county princesses and eldest princesses became energetic.
They are indeed of noble birth, their husbands' families are also noble, and their families have noble titles. Even if their children and grandchildren have no future, they can still be wealthy for a lifetime, but...
Regardless of whether it is a prince or a county prince, the title will be downgraded every generation, and within a few generations, he will become a pending duke, no different from the fallen nobles in Beijing.
There are many sons and daughters of the princess, not to mention their daughters. There are many who are granted the title of viscount, and there are also many whose daughters do not have the title of county lord.
In addition to being demoted in every generation, there is only one title. If two or more sons are born, after a hundred years, all the other children will be divided except for the eldest son who inherits the title.
The children who were sorted out did not have any reputation, they were just rich in money. Those who were capable were fine, while those who were incompetent became estranged from their masters after two or three generations, and at most they were better off than ordinary people.
Moreover, it is no better now than at the founding of the People's Republic of China. The emperor was generous and rewarded him happily with a wave of his title. Now is the age of peace, and there is no hope of being awarded a title without merit. If you encounter a stingy emperor, you have merit, but the credit is not big enough.
Nor will he be knighted.
Now, if the emperor offers a title as a reward, why won't these princesses, county princesses and older princesses be excited?
Not only were they excited, but their husbands' families were also excited, and their husbands were not short-sighted. They understood immediately after learning the cause and effect, the "responsibility letter" written by Ji Yunkai, and the emperor's reaction.
.
This matter is not just a matter of a palace banquet, but a game between the emperor and the court. As a clan, although they do not want to see the emperor dominating alone, they do not want to see the courtiers holding power.
As a clan, they are naturally on the side of the emperor, and they must do things for the emperor. Not to mention that the emperor also offered a reward for this matter, even if there is no reward, they must go all out to earn face for the emperor.
When things have developed to this point, the clan no longer blames Ji Yunkai for not doing well, nor do the princesses, county princesses and princesses blame Ji Yunkai for finding things for them to do. Now they only blame Ji Yunkai for giving them too many things to do.
Too few, too simple, unable to show their abilities, unable to let the emperor see their methods and abilities.
And the wives of the clan, who had not received the "letter of responsibility" and were not assigned any work, were originally happy that they did not have to deal with a little girl, but now they all regretted it so much that their intestines were blue.
Some people who couldn't sit still came directly to Ji Yunkai's door and asked if Ji Yunkai could arrange something for them.
Of course, noble ladies are very particular about what they say. They will not speak so directly. At most, they will just hint that they are doing things for the court and sharing the worries of the emperor.
In addition to these ladies who were not assigned to do anything, the princesses, county princesses and older princesses who were assigned to do things also came to see Ji Yunkai one after another. Naturally, these people came to Ji Yunkai not to thank him, but to thank him.
