Chapter 589: Implications
Qiao Yuyan knew that this storm in the court would have a great impact on her father, but hearing Wen Tingyuan say this still made her feel a little panicked.
She went back to her parents' home twice, but seeing that the old lady and Xu were so worried, she could only force the worries in her heart, and instead used good words to comfort them.
But within two days, Qiao Weisheng was implicated.
After a long period of trouble, the emperor seemed to be tired of the disputes, so he simply stopped working for three days and went to the villa in the suburbs of Beijing to relax. This was only because Wen Tingyuan wanted to accompany Qiao Yuyan in secret.
The rumors outside were that the emperor was directly angry by these people and recruited an imperial physician for treatment.
Therefore, three days later, the emperor came to the court again and his face disappeared as cold and arrogant as it began to begin. When an official once again proposed the posthumous title of the late emperor, the emperor turned directly to Qiao Weisheng.
"After Cui Aiqing retired, the one who can entrust Qiao Aiqing to the Ministry of Rites is now the matter of the Ministry of Rites. Why don't you tell me, according to the etiquette and law and the usual practice, what kind of posthumous title should be chosen for the late emperor?"
His tone now sounded a little more tired, but the eyes that fell on Qiao Weisheng were as sharp as eagle falcons.
Qiao Weisheng was particularly busy with the Ministry of Rites during this period. Not only was he quarreling in the court, but he also had various opinions within the Ministry of Rites. Although he temporarily took office as the Minister of State, he was not appointed until he was appointed.
The new official's three-way fire plan won't work, and many old ministers didn't listen to him that much.
When the emperor asked, he could only answer according to what he thought, and therefore respectfully handed over his memorial.
There were so many quarrels in the courts in these heavens. Qiao Weisheng didn't plan to argue with everyone at this time, so he simply wrote a memorial and presented it to the court.
It also saves you from not being able to pass the cabinet's stance.
The emperor took the memorial from the eunuch and opened it like a bit bored, but the expression on his face became unthinkable.
This made the court officials standing below nervous, wondering what word Qiao Weisheng had taken.
After a while, I heard the new emperor above snorting coldly, "What a doctrine of the mean!"
As he said that, he threw the memorial down, his face turned completely cold, "Those who have not spoken yet are as sloppy as you, Qiao Weisheng. Do you expect these two sides not to offend them?"
After saying that, he left again.
The chief minister of the cabinet, Mr. Zhang, picked up the memorial, took a look at him, and then sneered at Qiao Weisheng, "What is the word "wu" given by Lord Qiao?
Everyone knows that the late emperor has never experienced any war. Even when he ascended the throne, the ascension prince fought so fiercely, and the late emperor was safely outside because of his destiny. Your "martial arts" is clearly a satirizing the late emperor!"
Qiao Weisheng did not talk to him, and his attitude was very obvious.
Lord Zhang said what he thought.
The late emperor was not really a good emperor, but he was not as unbearable as the king of the country that had been destroyed in all dynasties, so the word "Li" mentioned by the Zheng family was definitely not good.
What's more, using this word clearly shows that there is a sense of framed by the emperor as unfilial.
"Wu" is really a beautiful posthumous posthumous. Thousands of years later, if you were not a person who knew history, you would not know that the word "Wu" refers to the late emperor putting swords on his children and wives.
Emperor Wu of Han was recognized as a hero of a generation. When he saw this word, everyone would only associate it with Emperor Wu of Han, which calmed down the hostility at this time.
But this obviously made the Zheng family unsatisfied. In fact, many people in the court listed many common posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthu
Therefore, after Qiao Weisheng's memorial was put up, he could be considered as offending everyone on both sides. It is no wonder that the emperor wanted to say that he would please both sides, which is the so-called doctrine of the mean.
Because Qiao Weisheng was scolded by the emperor in public, the group of censors who looked at the emperor's face and had a place to use their skills.
The others were red in their faces and had their own positions. There were indeed many places to attack, but so far, the emperor has not directly spoken up to support one party.
Even though many people know that the emperor is probably on the side of the Zheng family, as long as he doesn't say it verbally, there is still a possibility of change.
But Qiao Weisheng is different. This is a person who was refuted by the emperor in the church. If you don’t hurry up and find various reasons to apply for a book, it will not be revealed. They have been working diligently for nothing during this period.
The censor group is different from other official positions. Their official positions are not high, but they have the right to participate in the prefect of the Shangshu and the local magistrate.
Although many court officials don’t care much about these powerful men with robe and romance who are full of horse racing, it is really troublesome to be entangled.
For example, Qiao Weisheng is now, almost 180 years ago and has been revealed to explain.
The most talked about is that his marriage with Xu has been said to be a matchless marriage, let alone marrying a business woman as an official.
Even in fact, when Qiao Weisheng got married to Xu, he had no official position.
What's more, the Xu family actually donated a small official from the weaving bureau. To be honest, it is not a complete merchant.
The second is a series of things about the eldest daughter Qiao Yuyan.
God knows how they, as officials standing in the court, could even tell the story of Qiao Yuyan's mischief at the banquet.
Her marriage with Wen Tingyuan was criticized so much that she could not be more ruthless. Although her original intention was to praise Qiao Ying's no way to become a disciple of the daughter, she actually walked around Wen Tingyuan.
Seeing Wen Tingyuan coming back every day, his face became increasingly ugly, Qiao Yuyan didn't know what was going on.
Later, when I learned the whole story from Cheng Feng's mouth, my face was full of incredible.
I immediately understood Wen Tingyuan's mood at this time.
He is now just a minor official. Although he is in front of the imperial court, he cannot express any opinions unless the emperor ordered him in the palace.
But the problem is that this matter was clearly thrown out by the emperor himself, and even if he did not expect the details of the development of the matter, he could guess the direction.
Wen Tingyuan really had to bear it for his third uncle at this time.
Qiao Yuyan knew that he was unhappy because he was told, so he showed his feelings while there were only two people there, "You have always been so clear, why don't you know that this kind of thing is about your mind and your traces? When this matter is over, no one will mention it again."
"A group of big men stood in the hall, and they were as gossiped like women in the city, which was really ridiculous!" He said, and became a little angry again, "If you continue like this, everyone will be shameless. Why don't I go and explain it to him tomorrow..."
"Ting Yuan!" Qiao Yuyan hurriedly held his hand, his tone a little anxious.
When the two looked at each other, Wen Tingyuan understood her unfulfilled intention.
