The study was silent.
The corners of Xiao Yang's eyes rose slightly, as if he didn't understand the deep meaning of others looking at him, and his back slowly leaned back on the chair, and his sitting posture was more comfortable.
In addition to him, there are also Xiao Yue, the Marquis of Jingbei, who has not recovered from his illness, and the oldest and oldest uncle in the royal family.
The old emperor uncle is more than eighty years old, because he has always been in the world, Emperor Chu has a lot of respect for the old emperor.
The three of them sat together, only Xiao Yang, the king of Yan, did not seem to be facing the courtiers of the emperor, and he knew that Xiao Yang was arrogant, but every time Xiao Yang was arrogant and showed new tricks, as if he was repeatedly testing the bottom line of Emperor Chu, which shocked the people present, but he had the feeling that Xiao Yang, the king of Zhongyan, should be like this.
At this point, Xiao Yue had to admire his little uncle, and he asked himself if he couldn't be like this uncle.
Emperor Chu waited for a long time, and none of the pavilion elders present came forward to reprimand Xiao Yang, and the royal family was more like a gourd with a sawed mouth, or bowed his head, or looked around, and no one looked at Emperor Chu on the dragon chair.
As for the two princes he paid more attention to cultivating, the sixth prince looked sluggish and cowardly, obviously being scared by Xiao Yang, and the seventh prince looked angry, but he didn't say anything.
Even the Ministry of Rites, which has always paid the most attention to the courtesy of monarchs and ministers, is pretending to be confused, what else can Emperor Chu do He himself didn't have the confidence to make Xiao Yang surrender.
Emperor Chu suppressed the humiliation, and the courtiers in the court were all frightened by Xiao Yang, and they couldn't count on it at all, so they could only use people who were far away from the center and had not heard of Xiao Yang's various monarchless people to balance him.
A trace of disdain flashed in Xiao Yang's eyes for Emperor Chu's behavior, and he used to think that even if Emperor Chu did not have the qualifications and bearing of the first emperor, he was barely a mediocre lord, and Xiao Yang was okay with his face.
Since he knew that Emperor Chu had hit Gu Mingnuan with his idea, even if Emperor Chu had not successfully calculated Gu Mingnuan under his nose, Xiao Yang would never give him face again.
Emperor Chu's magnanimity and vision are too small, and the dignified emperor is like a woman who doesn't say anything, and he also uses a lot of means in the back house to deserve to be deceived by his mother's calculations, and always throws out women to apologize when he is in danger, and also expects the people around him to be loyal to him "I asked Zhongqing to come to the imperial study today, because I received the news from King Yue."
There was a coax, and everyone couldn't help but gasp, King Yue The uncle of Emperor Yingzong and Emperor Chu Xiao Yue's face was shocked, how could it be that King Yue suddenly appeared He approached Xiao Yang and asked in a low voice, "Does Uncle know the news of King Yue?"
Xiao Yangyun smiled lightly, "It seems that we don't know Your Majesty well enough." ” Even the uncle didn't receive the news, and Xiao Yue felt that things were a little tricky.
When the first emperor Yingzong succeeded to the throne, King Yue, who originally supported the Han king, was almost driven out of the capital by the first emperor.
Empress Dowager Ji hated the King of Han very much, and she didn't have much of a good impression of King Yue.
Seeing that things were not good, the king of Yue pretended to run away in three ways, but his real body went to sea in a sea boat, and later some people said that the sea boat capsized, and some people say that the king of Yue went to Fanbang in the south, and claimed the king and hegemony on the southern islands, occupying a fertile land.
Everyone talked about it, but most of the eyes fell on the uncles and nephews of the Xiao family, and the king of Yue, who was the king and hegemonic overseas, had news, no matter what, it was good news for Emperor Chu, who was in a weak position and could only maintain a fragile balance.
It is also enough to cheer up the weak royal family, so that it will not be pressed too badly by the Xiao family.
Even the deaf and dazzling old imperial uncle listened to the explanation of the situation around him, wiped his beard, nodded and said: "I haven't seen King Yue for more than 30 years, although he is Your Majesty's uncle, I remember that he is not a few years older than Your Majesty." ” "Your Majesty, the letter or letter from the King of Yue to you says when he will return to Middle-earth."
Xiao Yang's cold voice directly suppressed the courtiers' discussions, and the extremely bland words could not hear any panic, "I estimate that King Yue will lead the troops back, and by the way, pay tribute to the first emperor." ” Let Xiao Yang be right How could Xiao Yang know the contents of the letter Emperor Chu hoped to see the nervousness on his face, hoping to make Xiao Yang feel the feeling of threat and suppression, but unfortunately he couldn't see anything, "Uncle Yue Wang has already boarded the ship, and I am going to send someone to Zhili to meet him." ” After a pause, waiting for the people in the imperial study to digest this news, Emperor Chu swept away the decadence of the past, was glorious, and his face was dyed with excitement, "The country is in trouble and thinks of a good general, and the return of the king of Yue is the luck of the clan and the luck of the society, and I can't treat him slowly." ” "Ministry of Rites, the matter of welcoming King Yue will be handed over to you, be sure to satisfy King Yue, I have missed the imperial uncle for a long time, and finally have a reunion today, and I want to come to the imperial brother" "I thought that if the first emperor was still alive, he would never let King Yue lead his troops into the Central Plains for half a step."
Xiao Yang was sharp, and his eyes were piled up with a terrifying, soul-killing intent, "King Yue's soldiers and horses are all barbarians in the southern seas, I advise Your Majesty, it is best to let King Yue restrain his subordinates, once they move the people in the Central Plains, I will directly talk to King Yue about how to manage the army." ” Emperor Chu was stunned for a long time, and said angrily: "Xiao Yang, you are too presumptuous. ” "I don't think so."
Xiao Yang refused to show weakness and looked at Emperor Chu, and in the end, Emperor Chu was defeated in a humiliating manner, so he took the lead in looking away, and emphasized with insufficient confidence: "King Yan and King Yue are my auxiliary ministers, I don't want the two of you to go toe-to-toe, and King Yue is my own uncle, and King Yan should respect my imperial uncle." ” Xiao Yang got up and said solemnly: "The minister also hopes that Your Majesty will understand, what is to lure the wolf into the room, what King Yue did back then, Your Majesty may understand, but the first emperor will not, the first emperor may read to forgive the king of Han in brotherhood, and he will not understand King Yue."
Your Majesty was also by the side of the first emperor back then, those things, outsiders don't know, don't you remember" “” Emperor Chu was speechless.
"The day of the first emperor, Your Majesty has been delayed again and again, I thought that it could not be delayed any longer, the first emperor in the spirit of heaven did not want to see King Yue again, Your Majesty, two days later, please officiate the first emperor."
Xiao Yang set a day for domineering, and Emperor Chu did not listen, and he would lead troops into the palace that day.
Xiao Yue looked at Emperor Chu, and then at his uncle, regretting that he didn't have the patience to listen to his father mention the past of the first emperor, he obviously didn't know as much about the events of the year as the uncle, he thought that the first emperor was already in the past, but he didn't expect the people of the first emperor to jump out one by one.
Emperor Chu held the bookcase with both hands, his face pale, "I can't promise you, I got the news that the imperial brother and the imperial brother once dragged the newly born prince to the king of Yue." ” prince The prince of the first emperor The entire imperial study seemed to have exploded, the minister was at a loss, and everyone in the clan was also frightened by the news.
Xiao Yang sneered, turned around and walked out, "How can the prince of the first emperor be happy that His Royal Highness is His Majesty's dearest nephew." ”:
