Chapter 285 [The so-called way of taking advantage]
Ganxin Palace.
The emperor was holding a chess piece and was playing Go with a white-haired old eunuch. He looked calm and looked at the complicated chess game crisscrossing. This piece had been thinking about it for a long time and had not fallen.
The old eunuch's clothes proved his status. He was one of the three chief supervisors of the inner palace. The eunuch chief supervisor of the Ganxin Palace had a very cool name called Yi Kongting, but this name has been buried for many years. The eunuchs and palace maids in the palace all called him "General Manager Yi".
The so-called "three major supervisors of the inner palace" are the eunuchs in the Ganxin Palace, Kunhe Palace, and Yuyang Palace, and the eunuchs and palace maids in charge of the three departments.
However, General Manager Yi was on the side of the monarch. Although he was the same as the other two general managers, his status was obviously much higher. When the two general managers saw General Manager Yi, they had to take the initiative to salute, so in other words, this Yi Kongting could also be said to be the chief manager of the entire palace maid and eunuch in the harem.
No one doubted Mr. Yi's loyalty to the emperor.
The emperor was in good health before. Before taking the medicine, this general manager Yi personally tried the medicine every time. He was sure that it was not hindered and asked the emperor to take it. Moreover, he had served the emperor for many years and had never made any mistakes. Why did the emperor value and trust the general manager of the internal supervision around him?
Being able to sit with the emperor to play chess itself proves the unusual relationship between the two.
After a moment, the emperor finally dropped the chess piece in his hand.
"Wonderful!" Manager Yi praised: "The emperor's move is really a wonderful move, and I admire him. Every move of the emperor is thoughtful, but after making a move, it is a rare skill."
The emperor smiled and said, "I always have to learn to cherish every chess piece... I don't have many chess pieces...!"
Manager Yi said respectfully: "In this game of chess, only the master of chess is the master!"
The emperor smiled, stroked his beard and shook his head and said, "Lao Yi, whether he can control the chess game in heaven and earth is not based on fame, but on momentum!"
"Yes!" Manager Yi nodded and said, "The magical use of momentum is also very varied. The emperor is the dragon of the nine heavens, swallowing clouds and spitting mist, and the momentum of wind and clouds is changing thousands of times..."
The emperor nodded and said, "You are right. This trend is about changing a lot...!" He pointed to the gold chessboard and jade as chess pieces, and said slowly: "The chess game between these two people is unpredictable. I have been thinking... If this game is three people, four people or even five people playing, it will definitely be more exciting, and there will be many variables in the middle... At least one way of momentum, there is a way to take advantage of the momentum..."
The emperor seemed to be inexplicably confused, but General Manager Yi, who had followed him for many years, understood clearly.
...
"The emperor starts the song and the commander of the Jaw has submitted a memorial!" A sharp voice came from outside. The emperor knew very well that the person who could come in to disturb his chess at this time was another eunuch he trusted, deacon and eunuch Ling Lei.
Manager Yi immediately got up, went out to take the memorial, and came in to present it to the emperor.
The emperor opened the note, looked at it, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and handed the note to Manager Yi.
Manager Yi respectfully took the note, looked carefully, then carefully closed the note, placed it on the table next to him, and whispered: "Murong He can't beat Han Mo in the end!"
The emperor stood up, carried his hands on his back, and slowly walked to a screen.
The screen is surrounded by white jade, and the embroidery paintings in the middle are extremely beautiful. There are flowing water in the mountains and flowing clouds in the sky, with exquisite curves. It is a skill of ingenuity. Only emperors and generals can possess such a valuable screen.
Manager Yi picked up the whisk and stood respectfully behind the emperor.
The emperor stared at the screen for a long time before saying, "But... Han Mo seemed much better than me. I thought it would take me a while..."
Manager Yi whispered: "Maybe Han Mo is too strong, but Murong He is too stupid, that is one of the reasons... Han Mo may have been waiting for the opportunity, and this opportunity was seized by him."
The emperor smiled faintly and said, "He arrested him very well and did things very cleanly. Although I think many people think that this matter was done by Han Mo, there seems to be no evidence left."
He paced and walked back and forth for a few steps before saying, "It's just that Han Mo is too young and makes people suspicious about his work...it's not perfect in itself."
"At his age, he has not disappointed the expectations of the Lord." General Manager Yi said respectfully: "The Lord's use of the power... is indeed awesome!"
The emperor sat down on the chair and waved his hand and said, "It's just the beginning... Han Mo's role is definitely not just to get rid of one Murong He. He has a lot to do."
"But you must hold him firmly in your hand." Mr. Yi, who was covered in white hair, looked sharp: "Some weapons, if you don't control them well, will hurt yourself."
"I understand." The emperor thought: "If you want to kill the enemy, the weapon is not sharp, but it will hurt yourself..."
Manager Yi whispered: "The emperor's way of taking advantage of the power is very clever. The old slave is just worried that the emperor is taking advantage of the power, and some people with ulterior motives... are also taking advantage of the power!"
The emperor nodded and said, "Although I know this, I have to do something. Han Mo is from the Han family, and it is natural for the Han family to take advantage of the situation. But as long as I hold Han Mo firmly, the Han family's power will be in my hands." After a pause, he slowly said, "I just hope that God can let Jade Qinglun live for a few more years."
Manager Yi understood the emperor's meaning and nodded slightly.
To make Han Mo sharp, he must have power. The emperor obviously wanted to use the Leopard Camp to strengthen Han Mo's power. Han Mo's gain of power is equivalent to the Han family's gain of power. The Han family gains power is equivalent to the Yan State politics having another stronger chess player.
The weakening of imperial power made the emperor happy to see more new players in the chess game that were enough to balance other chess players. In this way, there were more choices to take advantage of the situation.
The emperor has seen the result of internal struggles among the aristocratic families. The destruction of the three hundred-year-old families is ultimately the result of their internal friction. This result obviously brought great benefits to the royal family, at least allowing the royal family to initially grasp Bozhou County and also have the capital to say "no" to the cabinet.
Such a result will naturally give the royal family a strong confidence.
The emperor needed more intense collisions from aristocratic families, and he needed to stir up a few more troubles in the already chaotic quagmire. The royal family leveraged the power to the Han family through Han Mo. In fact, the ultimate goal was to use the power of the Han family to check and balance the Xiao family and even the Su family. The more balanced the power in the court, the more prominent the majesty and importance of the royal family will be.
It is very ancient truth that you must give it in advance. Many people do not understand it, but the emperor obviously understands it.
The chess pieces he carefully selected need a good background and a certain degree of courage and courage, but they cannot have the huge ability to break free from the emperor's control, so the emperor's final choice was Han Mo!
My royal family borrowed you Xihua Hall and you Leopard Camp to use these royal power to package the Korean clan and enhance the strength of the Korean clan to check and balance Xiao Su. With strength, the Han family will naturally be unwilling to be played, and will become more active in this game of chess. The more active the royal family will be, the more effective the way of taking advantage of the power.
Taking advantage of the Han family and then using the Han family to seek benefits for the royal family, this is the emperor's true thought.
Of course, the focus of taking advantage of the situation is Han Mo. The royal family must be wary of the Han family through Han Mo, so the Han family must be strong, so the royal family must have the ability to regain the power of the royal family at any time.
Not to mention the Xihua Hall, the most important Leopard Turf Camp is, even if Han Mo delegates power, as long as Jade Qinglun does not die, he can take back his power at any time. Because Jade Qinglun is the spiritual pillar of the Leopard Turf Camp, his influence in the Leopard Turf Camp is even greater than that of the emperor. Even if Han Mo holds power in the Leopard Turf Camp, his influence cannot be comparable to Jade Qinglun in a short period of time.
So the emperor hopes that Jade Qinglun can live for a few more years, which will save a lot of trouble.
Of course, the emperor hopes to go on with his own vision. At least judging from the current situation, his vision is developing smoothly.
Han Mo got the power, and Murong He, the nails of the Xiao family who were stuck in the Leopard Camp, were quickly removed. Han Mo did it very clean, which made the emperor a little surprised, but was more satisfied.
This sharp knife did not disappoint myself.
Of course, the emperor also knew that the game of politics was a cruel battlefield in itself, and no one could control the direction of politics. The rapid changes in politics sometimes changed all established strategies just because of a small matter.
His way of taking advantage of the situation is also full of risks, but political struggles and struggles are the game of adventurers. If he does not want to become a mediocre and incompetent king, he will actively participate in this game.
Of course, the emperor did not want to be an incompetent king, nor did he want to sit in his unstable dragon throne tremblingly under the shadow of the aristocratic family.
He realized more clearly that if the imperial power is to stabilize and weaken or even destroy aristocratic families, relying solely on the imperial power and the heavenly power is a joke. The most useful way he chose is to "take advantage of the situation."
Although there are great risks when taking advantage of the situation, the emperor naturally feels that he has a great chance of winning.
If you have more than half of your chances of winning, it is naturally worth taking risks!
...
What the emperor and General Manager Yi were saying, and Eunuch Ling's voice came from outside the door again: "Your Majesty, the cabinet has a report!"
The emperor frowned. The report sent from the cabinet was either to seek benefits for the aristocratic family or to be too difficult. Anyway, there was nothing good.
Manager Yi brought the report, and the emperor only took a look and his expression changed slightly.
"The Dachang River bursts the dike!"
