"But, if big brother organized the Jinyiwei to be established, then if the emperor is not established, wouldn't Ye Lang lose this opportunity to hold power for no reason?”Nian Shilan still couldn't figure out what Ye Fan was planning.
"Shilan, do you think the Embroidered Uniform Guards have great power?”
"The Embroidered Uniform Guards naturally have great power!”
"If you were the emperor and the two biggest forces under your command were on the same side, what would you think?”Ye Fan said nothing more. Nian Shilan was smart enough to understand.
"Oh! I see!" Nian Shilan thought for a while, then widened her eyes in realization.
"So you asked your brother to stop the establishment of the Embroidered Uniform Guards to deliberately mystify things so that the Emperor would not be afraid!”
Ye Fan smiled and nodded.
Even the Crown Prince was no longer established during this period.
There were a few major organizations that had been in power throughout history, such as the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace and the Prime Minister. Now, all of them were either banned or made into figureheads by Yongzheng.
Basically, whatever Yongzheng said was true.
If not, it could only be that Yongzheng himself was unwilling to set it up.
Therefore, if Ye Fan wanted the establishment of the Jinyiwei to be successful, he had to dispel Emperor Yongzheng's suspicions and concerns.
This was because the Jinyiwei was different from other departments. This was a department that focused on monitoring and law enforcement. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it had taken away half of the emperor's power. How could Emperor Yongzheng not be cautious in handling such an important department?
When he saw General Nian Gengyao, who held military power, agree to the establishment of the Jinyiwei, Yongzheng would never believe that there was no relationship between them.
Once he became suspicious of Ye Fan and Nian Gengyao, the Brocade Guard basically had nothing to do with Ye Fan.
If he treated his own child like this, it was obvious how he treated Ye Fan, the eunuch beside Consort Hua.
Nian Shilan really could not figure it out. Even if she did not understand Yong Zheng's character, she had lived with him for many years. However, Ye Fan was so familiar with Yong Zheng after only meeting him once. It was really unbelievable.
Hearing Nian Shilan's words, Ye Fan smiled and muttered in his heart,""If you were brainwashed by palace dramas every day for a few years, you would be so familiar with them.”
Since ancient times, the ruthless imperial family was not just for show.
···················
That night, Nian Shilan sent a letter to her family out of the palace.
Coincidentally, Nian Gengyao, who was in the capital, received a letter from his sister, Nian Shilan.
Under the candlelight, Nian Gengyao read Nian Shilan's handwritten letter carefully and frowned slightly.
"Ye Fan? The new Chief of the Imperial Household? The emperor wants to set up the Jinyiwei?"
Nian Gengyao couldn't understand what was going on.
"Since this Ye Fan is someone close to him, why would he want to stop his future? Could it be that Ye Fan burned the bridge after crossing the river?"
Nian Shilan was afraid that something would happen on the way, so she didn't tell him everything in the letter. She only told him some things that Nian Gengyao needed to do. On the surface, she thought that Ye Fan and Concubine Hua were not on good terms, so Concubine Hua wanted to hinder Ye Fan's future.
Unable to figure it out, Nian Gengyao stopped thinking and burned the letter before returning to his bedroom to rest.
" Shi Lan definitely doesn't have such a meticulous plan. If it's really as I guessed, then this Ye Fan's plan is really terrifying…"
Ordinary people only knew that Nian Gengyao was arrogant and despotic, but they didn't know that it wasn't that he didn't know those methods, nor that he didn't understand those people's thoughts. It was just that he didn't want to use them and didn't want to cater to them.
In Nian Gengyao's opinion, he was the subject, and he was the ruler. He would expand his territory for him, and he only needed to believe in him. However, this was the most difficult thing for an emperor to do.
In the end, they ended up being executed by Emperor Yongzheng's entire family.
The unruly Nian Gengyao had used his family's lives to pay for his own unruly character. He was even given the title of "the world's number one ungrateful benefactor" by Emperor Yongzheng.
··················
Morning court.
In front of the magnificent Golden Hall, Emperor Yongzheng was sitting on the dragon throne in his dragon robe.
He looked at the civil and military officials standing on both sides of the throne room below. After listening to the important reports of the officials, he said to all the officials below as the morning court was about to end,"Zhen intends to rebuild the Jinyiwei set up by the previous dynasty to supervise the world and collect intelligence on behalf of Zhen. Do you have any objections?"
Emperor Yong Zheng's words immediately caused waves of discussion in the entire throne room.
The Royal Guards were the source of the previous dynasty's chaos.
Now that it had been set up again, all the officials below expressed their confusion.
Looking at the officials discussing animatedly below, Emperor Yongzheng had long expected this situation. He said indifferently,"Calm down. If you have any doubts, you can express your opinions. Don't make any more noise."
