Chapter 283: Staying in the East Palace
It is embarrassing to not buy back the things you donated at such auctions. If someone maliciously blocks them, they should show their strength. Just like Yan Fei did before, they snatched the jade bracelet back.
Businessmen generally rarely fight with each other, but once they fight with each other, they take extreme ruthless actions.
After Yan Fei threw out 20 million, his eyes looked at him frequently. More people looked at Xu Mingyu and began to inquire about his identity. They all knew that this was really a grudge. There must be a good show in the future, because Xu Mingyu's things have not been auctioned yet.
Sure enough, after the huge bottle of pink champagne that Xu Mingyu took out, that is, the famous pink champagne of Spades A, came out, almost everyone's eyes looked at Yan Fei.
Yan Fei did not disappoint them, and directly raised the price all the way to raise the bottle of champagne, which weighed more than one meter high and weighed hundreds of kilograms, to a price of 2 million. This was actually more than ten times its actual price.
When Yan Fei offered this price, Xu Mingyu proudly gave up the price. He thought he had successfully tricked Yan Fei once again. However, he did not expect that the people around him looked at him with disdain, and he had already put him on the blacklist.
If you don’t talk about morality and rules, you don’t even want to be faced. You just want to take advantage of it and have a narrow-minded pattern. No one like this will do business with him. If Xu Mingyu is hang out in the business circle of the imperial capital, it will be enough to declare his career to be over tonight.
After the banquet, Yan Fei refused the invitation to attend the party and left here with Xia Lin. As for Xu Mingyu, he had no intention of paying attention. Since Xu Mingyu wanted to cause trouble, just do it back.
In the following period, Yan Fei kept transporting supplies to the two space-time. He prepared Zhao Ji's performance plan in the Northern Song Dynasty, and mobilized troops to gather in the capital in the late Ming Dynasty to force Emperor Chongzhen to abdicate. In the modern world, he was chasing Japan and scrambling his own movements while drawing funds to Hong Kong to launch a sniper battle against Xu Mingyu's company.
In addition, he also needs to maintain a relationship with many female friends and allocate time to accompany this and that. It can be said that there is no time to rest except for not much sleep time.
Yan Fei was also helpless in his busyness, which was different from what he thought. He originally thought that he could enjoy life freely after he had money, but he didn't expect that he was even more busy than when he was not rich. I really don't know when this kind of life will be.
After a period of busyness, Yan Fei finally had some free time to go to the farm in California. During the day, he rode a horse and took the little tiger to stroll on the farm, and at night, he drove his car to interact passionately with his friend Tiffany on the riverside and the forest on the grassland.
This period of time made Yan Fei feel very relaxed and satisfied. He doesn’t need to think about so many things all day long to enjoy life. This is the life he wants to live.
Yan Fei set out again to the time and space of the Northern Song Dynasty, this time because people from all walks of life had already arrived in Bianliang City. Next is the day when Zhao Ji staged the last stage of his life. However, before Zhao Ji was on the verge of time, there were a few things to do in advance.
"Your Majesty, this matter must not be done. The old minister will never agree." Zong Ze, who was promoted to the Secretariat of the Secretariat for a series of military achievements, became the real prime minister, and shook his beard and shouted at the two emperors on the imperial throne, "The hen is a sign of the destruction of the country!"
Li Gang, who had just been recalled to Bianliang City from Fengjie, Chongqing, was also full of anger and shouted to the two emperors, "I will definitely not agree with this matter!"
The other Li Shuye, Li Ruobing and others in the court all expressed their opinions that they absolutely did not agree with the emperor's will. And the generals such as Yue Fei and Han Shizhong stood on the other side with expressionless faces, watching their noses, pretending to hear nothing.
The reason why Zong Ze and others were so excited and angry was that Zhao Ji and Zhao Heng and his son expressed their intention to let Emperor Maode Zhao Fujin move into the East Palace in the court.
The Eastern Palace is the residence of the prince, and only the crown prince of the country can move in. To put it bluntly, the crown prince is preparing for the emperor. Once there is any turmoil on the throne, it will be the next emperor. Originally, the crown prince has always been extremely concerned about the palace and the court, and various forces are fighting fiercely.
The previous crown prince was the current emperor Zhao Heng. He had not had time to become the crown prince after he had just ascended the throne for less than a year. Because he was young, the ministers did not pay much attention. After all, the emperor mentioned the crown prince as soon as he ascended the throne, which was to give the emperor eye medicine.
But no one expected that Zhao Ji and his son would let Princess Maode be the crown prince. When this proposal came out, the civil servants were stunned. They thought there was something wrong with their ears. But when Zhao Ji said it again, the civil servants fell into a state of dullness as if someone had a hammer hit on the head.
For many years, since Wu Zetian, the literati and literati in China have tried every means to control women and cut off their chances of interfering in power. Emperor Zetian was the most unbearable pain in the hearts of all civil officials. They could not allow another Wu Zetian to appear no matter what.
"Why don't you agree?" Yan Fei, who was standing next to the imperial throne, glanced over the angry ministers below, and smiled indifferently, "Is Emperor Maode not the blood of the Supreme Emperor?"
"Of course the Emperor is the bloodline of the Supreme Emperor." Li Gang, who was in a hot temper, stepped forward and shouted at Yan Fei, "It is an iron rule that the palace cannot interfere in politics!"
"Iron Law?" Yan Fei sneered, "Who formulated the iron law?"
"When King Wu of Zhou defeated King Zhou, he said that there is no morning for the hen, and the morning for the hen is only the rope of the family." These big turbans are all academic masters, and they always keep them in mind when they study. Such allusions are like this, and they open their mouths and say "Emperor Wu of Han killed Mrs. Gouyi, and killed his mother and son to prevent him from interfering in politics."
"In the past, Daji and Baosi were asked to cause disaster for the country to be destroyed." Zong Ze, who was beside him, then said, "The Wu family had a disaster for the world before. How can the supreme position be handed over to a woman!"
"Is it still the Emperor Zhou of Zhou still in the world? Where is Emperor Wu of Han?" Yan Fei stepped down the steps and looked at Zong Ze and others. "What's wrong with Wu Zetian? Didn't you just kill a lot of big scarves? You just want to step on her in the mud and water and never get out of it? Elizabeth is also a woman. She took Britain across the world and became the Sunless Empire. It's not better than any man."
Zong Ze and others looked at each other, and no one understood who Elizabeth was. What else is the empire that the sun never sets? It has never been seen in Zhaozhao's history books.
"The national master doesn't need to say this anymore." Zong Ze took a deep breath and came to Yan Fei, looking at Yan Fei with a decisive expression. "We will definitely not agree to this matter."
Of course, Yan Fei is not a feminist, but on the contrary he also admires the idea of the Three Obediences and Four Virtues. The reason why he insists on his own opinion at this moment is entirely because Zhao Ji and Zhao Heng must die in his arrangement, and the words of Emperor Maode ascend to power are easy to control.
"It doesn't matter whether you agree or not." Yan Fei smiled and turned around and looked at the two emperors. "This is the emperor's housework, and everything will be decided by the emperor."
"This is not just a matter of the Tian family." Li Gang's beard trembled with anger and shouted loudly, "My Song Dynasty is the emperor and the scholars and officials to share the world!"
Yan Fei smiled, really laughing happily. Even if Zhao Ji and Zhao Heng were still a little dissatisfied and hesitant about this matter, the hot-tempered Li Gang said this to the scholar-official and emperor who shared the world with the emperor, and the two of them would never hesitate anymore.
No emperor would think of sharing power with others, and his own sons would not be enough, let alone these outsiders.
Sure enough, Zhao Ji and Zhao Heng immediately lowered their faces when they heard Li Gang's roar. Although they pushed the matter of letting Emperor Maode enter the East Palace under Yan Fei's forced. Zhao Heng was even fooled by Yan Fei that it was enough to let Emperor Maode enter the East Palace for three months. However, after hearing Li Gang's words, they couldn't help but hang their anger on their faces.
"Two Your Majesties." Yan Fei asked with a smile, "What do you think about this matter?"
"The establishment of the Eastern Palace is a family matter of the Tian family. How can foreign ministers intervene?" Zhao Ji sneered and looked at Zong Ze and others with some disdain. "I have discussed this with the emperor, so I can follow it."
In Zhao Ji's opinion, if it were a few years ago, he would have driven Zong Ze and others out directly, and demoted them to remote areas to eat soil.
As for Zhao Heng, there is no need to say more. As soon as he ascended the throne, he started killing many ministers, including Cai Jing and others, and set a precedent for the killing of scholars and officials in the Song Dynasty. Of course, he also disliked these ministers who tried to separate the imperial power.
"I and my father have made up my mind, so you don't need to say much." Zhao Heng also said weakly, "Just follow the will."
Because of the Jin soldiers' invasion of the south and Yan Fei's killing, the Northern Song Dynasty's officialdom was at the weakest time. Under the great military power, the power and prestige of the literati were extremely suppressed. When the emperor made up his mind and the military remained silent, the civil servants were unable to resist at all.
On the one hand, the power of civil servants comes from control over the government offices in various places, and on the other hand, it controls fiscal revenue and expenditure.
But at this time, most of the localities began to move into military control. The finances of the court had long collapsed, and now they rely entirely on Yan Fei's support to spend money. The power in the hands of civil servants had fallen to the lowest point, and they had no ability to resist at this time.
After Yan Fei and the two emperors left, the angry Zong Ze and others stopped Yue Fei and Han Shizhong and asked them to withstand the emperor's pressure to oppose the emperor's orders. The radical Li Gang even said that the army should directly use radical means to oppose it, and even directly drag the army to the palace to force the palace.
Faced with the fierce requests of the civil servants, Yue Fei pursed his lips and said nothing. Han Shizhong sneered not only, "Military change and forced the palace? You can say this too? If you want to go, you will go yourself, we won't go. The emperor issued an imperial edict, and we just listened. Isn't it a rebellion if you violate the emperor's order? This is the royal family business. Whoever the emperor wants to sit in, it will be whoever he wants. We will not do it."
"The boss is not good at making a plan!" Looking at the backs of many military generals leaving, Li Gang stomped his feet angrily.
"There is nothing to do now." Zong Ze smiled bitterly and said, "I can only do this first."
"No!" Li Gang was furious, "We resign!"
"It was finally difficult to expel the evil people from the court. At this time, resigning from office can only allow those evil people to return to the center of the court." Zong Ze persuaded seriously, "This matter should not be forced. Observe for the time being, and wait until the time is ripe before persuading it."
"Hmph!" Li Gang, full of reluctance, shook his sleeves heavily, turned around and walked out.
