"Yes, it is indeed because of the Prince of Yan's enfeoffment."
Wei Yunyi took the first place and tried his best to act like an emperor.
Upon hearing this, Grand Tutor Zhang Zhengming narrowed his eyes and said directly, "Your Majesty, you must not allow the Prince of Yan to return to his fiefdom. The Yan region where he is located is not only home to strong and sturdy people, but also has vast tracts of land suitable for horse ranches."
"Although no one from the Sun family holds official positions in the imperial court, they have been operating in Yan for over a hundred years and their influence is deeply entrenched."
"He has almost all the money and connections he needs. If we let him go, it would be like letting a tiger go back into the mountains."
"If the King of Yan develops disloyalty and wants to start an army, the consequences will be disastrous."
Zhang Zhengming explained the interests involved and advised Wei Yunyi.
The meaning is also very clear.
The Sun family’s influence in Yan is too great.
He has all the conditions to start a rebellion.
And his starting point was all for the sake of the court and the country.
Even if the other party does not have that intention, as long as he has the ability to rebel, he cannot be let go.
Otherwise, when things happen, it will be too late.
Sitting in the main seat, Wei Yunyi was suddenly shocked and his expression changed slightly.
It’s not that I’m afraid of starting a rebellion, I just suddenly remembered the original plot about Prince Yan.
In the original novel, the protagonist was worried about this, so he found various reasons to forcibly detain the King of Yan for five years.
However, because the other party was scheming and had been plotting in secret, and with the help of Empress Dowager Sun, Wei Yuanchuan, also known as the Prince of Yan, fled the capital and returned to his fiefdom. Less than two years later, he prepared his troops and then launched an army in the name of clearing the court.
Unfortunately, due to insufficient preparation, they were wiped out by the imperial army in one fell swoop.
Therefore, it did not cause much impact on the dynasty.
Also because of this matter.
Empress Dowager Sun broke with the original owner.
In other words, if I let Prince Yan return to his fiefdom, he will definitely rebel?
After recalling the original plot, Wei Yunyi's eyes brightened.
If this is the case, there will definitely be turmoil in the Wei court.
And there is something more important.
If the King of Yan had gone back two years earlier, would he have had more time to prepare?
At that time, the time required to quell the rebellion will be extended.
In this way, the impact will be even greater, and it will definitely ruin the growing fortune of Wei, and then convert into a large amount of tyranny value!
Thinking of this, Wei Yunyi began to get excited. He is indeed a beacon of light in the sea of suffering for me, the foolish ruler.
Just one sentence allowed me to find a way to ruin the fortune of the Wei Dynasty.
He made up his mind at that moment.
Let King Yan go back, he must go back.
Wei Yunyi immediately showed an embarrassment on his face and said, "But, I have already told the Queen Mother today that the Prince of Yan should return to his fiefdom. My dear, you are too late."
"What? Your Majesty has already promised the Queen Mother?"
"Your Majesty, this will cause trouble. Fortunately, the King of Yan has not left. There is still a chance."
Zhang Zhengming's expression changed drastically, and he immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please revoke your order!"
"Retract your order? I am the Son of Heaven. My word is final. How can I go back on my word?"
Wei Yunyi continued, "Besides, haven't you always asked me to ease the relationship between me and the Queen Mother? Now that the Prince of Yan is allowed to return, the Queen Mother will definitely be happy."
"This... the two are completely different." Zhang Zhengming said anxiously: "Although the Prince of Yan is outstandingly talented, as long as he stays in the capital, he won't cause any trouble. But once he returns to his fiefdom, then..."
"Okay, my dear, there is no need to say anymore. I am tired." Wei Yunyi interrupted him.
Although there was no explicit rejection, the meaning was already very clear.
Seeing this, Zhang Zhengming slowly lowered his head and said, "I'll take my leave."
After saying that, he bowed and turned to leave.
But his previously upright body was now slightly bent, somewhat decadent, until it disappeared.
Seeing this, Wei Yunyi felt a little apologetic, but there was nothing he could do about it.
So that tragedy will not happen again, and for the sake of all people in the world.
That's all I can do...
As long as I become strong, everything can be solved.
"Someone come."
Without thinking about it any further, Wei Yunyi said, "Go to the Cining Palace and tell the Queen Mother that I have decided to let the Prince of Yan go to his fiefdom."
"I obey your order." A young eunuch in blue came out, knelt down, and went to the Cining Palace to deliver the oral order.
"Has the life of a tyrant officially begun?"
In the main seat of the imperial study, Wei Yunyi leaned back on the dragon throne and stretched his body.
But he knew that the matter of letting Prince Yan become a vassal would not be resolved so quickly.
During the morning court tomorrow, a group of ministers will come forward to make suggestions.
Wei Yunyi had almost expected it.
There will be a lot of people screaming about this.
Even the stubborn ones might just start cursing.
But for the sake of the people of the world, what's wrong with sacrificing yourself a little?
Even if there is a storm, you have to face it alone.
Alas, I am still too kind.
...
Cining Palace.
Prince of Yan, Wei Yuanchuan, was listening to Queen Mother Sun recounting past events.
According to Empress Dowager Sun, Wei Yunyi's mother was a kind-hearted woman with no scheming.
It is almost the embodiment of truth, goodness and beauty, and that is why it was loved by the late emperor.
Unfortunately, she was so beautiful that she died of hemorrhage during childbirth.
The late emperor also transferred this affection to Wei Yunyi, which is why he was made the crown prince shortly after his birth.
Even though the opponent did not show any talent or martial arts talent in the later period, it did not shake the emperor's heart.
So after hearing this, Wei Yuanchuan also changed his opinion of his royal brother.
Having such a good mother, some things are indeed what you deserve.
