Chapter 16: Etiquette (2)
Yuan Zhiyu whispered softly in Zhize's ear, Yuan Zhize's face immediately changed greatly, and he still seemed to feel a little unbelievable for a while, and turned to Yuan Zhiyu to confirm: "You mean... forced my father to make me a vassal king...""Exactly. Yuan Zhiyu raised his eyebrows and nodded slightly.
Yuan Zhize walked back and forth in the room, his brows twisted into a pimple: "No, the ancestor has already set up the ancestral precept back then, and I will never establish a vassal king, and besides, the courtiers may not agree..."
"Rules are set by people, and they are also made by people. The eldest brother is powerful and powerful, and he has long been an indispensable pillar of the imperial court. Yuan Zhiyu stepped forward and said with a smile: "It's just that Yangpu's military power was taken back by my father with great difficulty, how can I be willing to let him be a general now? Even if the eldest brother vacates the position of the general of the expedition to the west, I don't expect that no one will dare to sit up!"
"That's true, Yang Pu is definitely not our opponent, but those courtiers..." "Big brother, why are you suddenly confused..."Yuan Zhize suddenly grabbed Yuan Zhiyu's fingers that were constantly shaking in the air, looked directly at the other party and said, "You mean, you want me to make a fuss about these two assassinations?"
"Exactly! The frequent occurrence of assassinations is precisely because of the dereliction of duty of the local officials, and the eldest brother only needs to ask Lord Situ to contact the important ministers of the court and the central government to ask his father to put the local government of Hanzhong under the name of the eldest brother, and the eldest brother can not purge the remnants of all parties in a grand manner? If the father does not agree, the eldest brother will ask for his resignation as the general of the West under the pretext that his safety is not guaranteed, and see what those will do!" Looking at Yuan Zhi's appearance as if he was hanging over the river, I really couldn't imagine that this prince, who usually looked reckless, was actually quite scheming.
"It's just that people's words are terrifying, I'm afraid that the world will say that I am not subservient..."Although he nodded frequently, Yuan Zhize was still a little undecided. "The eldest brother has too many hearts, how can a false name be compared to the benefits of real power? If the eldest brother cares about the opinions of others and wants to block the mouths of the world, he might as well play his father in the future, and the eldest brother will appoint other people with outstanding military achievements as the Taishou of Hanzhong..."
"This..."Easily hand over the power that you have worked so hard to get, what kind of medicine is Yuan Zhiyu selling in the gourd?
Seeing that we didn't understand what he meant, Yuan Zhiyu's face showed a little cunning: "In terms of military merits, except for the generals under the eldest brother, I'm afraid no one can compare to my Yuan Zhiyu's subordinates..."
Yuan Zhiyu's entire plan was designed seamlessly, I couldn't help but look at this reckless prince, Yuan Zhize was also very happy, patted him on the shoulder and praised him repeatedly: "Zhiyu, you are becoming more and more mature." ”
"It's still the eldest brother's education is good, how dare the younger brother boast. Yuan Zhiyu was very modest about this: "The eldest brother can't think quietly because he is disturbed by everything, and I just did what I did." ”
Hearing his words, Yuan Zhize nodded slightly and said, "Okay, just do as you say, remember to discuss the relevant matters with Lord Situ again." Yuan Zhiyu agreed, and then turned around and went out.
Looking at his distant back, Yuan Zhize said to himself: "This Zhiyu is finally willing to use his brain to think." "It is really impressive that the king of Chengdu can come up with such a good plan. "I'm very happy with his performance today.
"Lord Situ has made a lot of contributions, since I gave him the task of contacting Lord Situ, although I am still a little reckless at times, but I have made a lot of progress. "By the way, I always heard Yuan Zhize say that Lord Situ Situ, who is he?
"Lord Situ Wang is my enlightenment teacher. Yuan Zhize sat down reflexively, and his tone was very respectful: "He is already a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and his status in the court is light, and he has always cared for me. "The image of an old pedant with a white beard appeared before me, and he must have been amiable.
"Amiable?" Yuan Zhize smiled bitterly: "Zhiyu and I were beaten by him since childhood, don't you look at Zhiyu as a hanger, no one is afraid, every time I see him, it's like a mouse seeing a cat." "What, I really can't believe my ears, even the prince dares to teach a lesson as a courtier, that old man is really not small, and I can't help but feel three points of awe in my heart.
"When I take you back to the capital in the future, you will be able to see him. "Why should I go to the capital?" Yuan Zhize's words made me scratch my head. Yuan Zhize hugged me in his arms and said softly: "Fool, I want to take you to ask my father for marriage." ”
The burden in his heart was finally put down, Yuan Zhize finally regained his vitality and said excitedly. When I thought of being able to stay with Yuan Zhize, I couldn't help but feel red.
Yuan Zhize hugged me harder and harder, and said to himself: "How can I let my beloved woman be wronged? Don't worry, I will definitely marry you into the door in style!"
"But..."Although it was difficult to hide the excitement in my heart, when I thought of what Wanyun had told me at the beginning, I was worried that the emperor would not allow the two of us to be together. Yuan Zhize blocked my mouth with his fingers, didn't let me continue, and said with a firm gaze: "I know what you want to say, believe your husband, I will definitely not let you be wronged." Looking at his resolute eyes, I nodded heavily. If you can meet such a considerate partner in this life, what more could a husband ask for.
