Chapter 106: Eastern Year

When Chongyuanjun visited Xie's mansion, Xie Dongnian was fishing.

Xie Dongnian is about in his early thirties, with a white face and no beard, born with a pair of peach blossom eyes, thin lips and a smile, revealing an indescribable cool energy. Dressed in a vermilion satin coat and wearing a nondescript hat, he caught up with the fish to bite the hook and recycle the fishing line.

"Thank you, shopkeeper. Chongyuanjun arched his hand from afar. "Uninvited, forgive me. ”

Xie Dongnian took the fish off the hook, and the tail of the fish swayed and struggled, splashing him with deep and shallow water traces all over his satin.

He had never seen Chongyuanjun before, but he recognized his identity, hooked the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "As soon as Lord Changshi comes, my fish will be baited." ”

Chongyuanjun felt that he might have found the right person.

This fish was finally served on the table and used to entertain distinguished guests, Chongyuanjun was full of politeness, Xie Dongnian greeted him, and the two of them were very skillful in speaking, and they were also happy for a while.

When it was time for tea after dinner, Chongyuanjun finally said his intention: "Su Wen Xie shopkeeper is a person who has no means, there is a big deal today, I don't know if the shopkeeper dares to do it?"

"I'm ashamed, my lord just said it. ”

Chongyuanjun said slowly: "Have you heard of Mr. Ming?"

Xie Dongnian said with a smile: "Mr. Ming's name, how can anyone in Lingbei not know." ”

How could you not have heard of it?

Mr. Ming is a big legend in Lingbei, who has no fame, no power, and no one even knows his family background. It only took three years to become a figure in Lingbei, and his means are self-evident.

No one knows where Mr. Ming came from, only that this person is deeply trusted by King Wenrui, and the half-dead little prince almost handed over all the hole cards to this young man, and all the things in Lingbei were also handed over to him.

The seal letter with the word "Ming" printed on it is sometimes better than the great seal of King Wenrui.

If this Mr. Ming just got power, it would have been fine, but this person really took over Lingbei. At first, when these local officials saw that he looked young, some people despised him and did not put him in their eyes, but afterwards they all planted him in his hands.

Not to mention the officials of the palace, seeing him is like a mouse meeting a cat, and there is only a nod in response to him.

Chongyuanjun asked, "What do you think of Mr. Ming's prestige?"

Xie Dongnian didn't know Chongyuanjun's intentions, so he kept quiet: "It's like the sun in the sky." ”

After that, Chongyuanjun's words were like thunder on the ground: "Does that gentleman mean to replace him?"

Xie Dongnian took half a sip of tea in his throat and didn't swallow it, and almost lost his manners: "The adults are making fun of the villain?"

Chongyuanjun was calm: "What am I doing with you for fun?"

Xie Dongnian said with a smile: "Mr. Ming's prestige, one is that this person has excellent means, and the other is that the prince is a backer behind him, and the villain is just a businessman, how can he replace him?"

Chongyuan Jun's eyebrows moved: "The minister is strong and the lord is weak, will the prince really always be his backer?"

Xie Dongnian was silent for a long time, and suddenly laughed, and for a moment it was like a spring breeze: "My lord, would you like to go to the study and sit for a while?"

Mr. Ming fell out of favor.

This is the hot news of Wenrui Wangfu in recent days.

Since Xie Dongnian Xie Dianshu entered the mansion and filled in the position of the booklet that had been vacant, it seems that the direction of the wind has changed.

This Xie Dianshu is older than Mr. Ming, and he is also a handsome and good-looking, it is rumored that the official donated by the businessman came to do it, left and right, but he did not show any deliberate traces, no one could pick out a word about him, and he would buy people's hearts.

In the first three months of his coming, it was quite calm, and one day, Xie Dianshu presented a crucian carp koi to the prince, and asked the doctor, there is the ability to heal health, and the prince has eaten not long ago, and he is really a little more energetic.

Since then, the prince has treated him differently, and after a few days, that favor has become affectionate.

The prince intended to support this person and give him real power, but he was stopped by Mr. Ming.

Xie Dianshu still looked like he was smiling, but the prince threw his face at Mr. several times.

It is said that the gentleman was so angry that he folded his fan and slammed the door, pointing at King Wenrui and calling him by name, and the prince almost wanted to punish him for the crime of disrespect.

In the next few days, Mr. Ming handled business in the front hall during the day, went to banquets and socialized at night, and never saw the prince again.

On the contrary, it was Xie Dianshu, seeing that the prince was in good spirits, he took the prince out to fish, and the two returned side by side that night, and bumped into Mr. Ming, who returned from the banquet.

At that time, Mr. Ming was dressed in Luo Qi and sat in the carriage, Xie Dianshu and the prince were dressed in sackcloth because of fishing, carrying fish baskets, and cars and horses passed by, but Mr. Ming's groom didn't even recognize his own prince.

Xie Dongnian smiled: "Has the prince ever heard of Xie Yi?"

The prince stared at him, but Xie Dongnian had a smile in his eyes: "Xie Yi is the last powerful minister of the previous dynasty, with outstanding talents, he is the one who entrusts the emperor to the orphan, assumes the position of the prince, and supports Emperor Zhao to the throne with one hand." Emperor Zhao was young, full of trust in Xie Yi, called Mr., and held the disciple ceremony, as long as it was Xie Yi's advice, Emperor Zhao listened to all of them, and none of them refused. ”

Xie Dongnian's peach blossom eyes gradually focused, and there was no longer the joking color of the past: "But the first person to surrender to Cheng Tai Zu in the previous dynasty was this Xie Yi." On the day when Taizu led the troops into the customs, Xie Yi opened the north gate of the capital, and no one in the Manchu Dynasty was willing to stop him. ”

In the end, Emperor Zhao hanged himself with a white silk on the beam of the house, but Xie Yi returned to his hometown with gold and silver, and in the end, he ended up with a full house of children and grandchildren, I don't know how unwilling Emperor Zhao was. ”

King Wen Rui's expression was faintly sinister: "What does Xie Dianshu mean?"

Xie Dongnian was not afraid, and only smiled lightly: "Loyalty is the way for the minister, but checks and balances are the way for the king, and the minister is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses." ”

Since then, Wang Wenrui has become a little more estranged from Mr. Ming.

There is a guest in the house, surnamed Wen, at the beginning of the name, he has always been good with Mr. Ming, and he is a straight intestine, seeing that Mr. Ming was angry, he couldn't help but say: "You treat him with sincerity, these three years have changed his face, and he has worked hard, but he is suspicious of you everywhere, and now after listening to the words of the peddler's pawn, he will come to break your face." According to me, you might as well go back to the capital as soon as possible and switch to someone else. I can't get out, but you're not, with your power, where is there no place to live?"

Somehow these words penetrated the ears of King Wenrui, and the prince was furious, and ordered to scold Wen Chu with a cane to set an example, but was stopped by Mr. Ming.

Wen Chu's face was pale, but Mr. Ming was calm: "Brother Wen Shi is a guest of His Royal Highness, but he is not a domestic slave, and His Royal Highness's move may be unpopular." ”

King Wen Rui sneered: "Mr. Ming is well aware of the righteousness, could it be that he has the intention of changing to the Ming Lord early?"

Mr. Ming's face turned cold: "What is Your Highness talking about?"

King Wen Rui's eyes were pitch black, as if they were bottomless cold pools, staring directly at him: "Mr. is holding the power so tightly, doesn't he want to bring enough chips to change the court?"

Mr. Ming was silent for a long time: "Your Highness thinks like this?"

King Wen Rui's breathing was blocked for a moment: "I ......"

Mr. Ming didn't speak, but at the beginning of the article, his lips turned pale with anger, and he tugged at the corner of Mr. Ming's robe: "Let's go." I can still stand these two times, you don't deserve such grievances. This man is ungrateful, only if you and I are blind and voted for the wrong person, he forgot the year-"

"Shut up. Mr. Ming stopped Wen Chu and put a piece of phoenix jade that had been in his sleeve on the table. "That being the case, it is to return to its rightful owner in the next. ”

This piece of jade is known to everyone, this phoenix jade has the mark of King Wenrui, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is not an exaggeration to see jade as seeing people, from the moment Mr. Ming came to Lingbei, this piece of jade followed him, and now three years have passed, he actually returned this piece of jade.

The subordinates held their breath and stared, and they didn't dare to come out.

"Lord Wang, what's wrong?" At this time, Xie Dongnian was coming in from outside the door, with a smile on his face and a fishing basket in his hand. "I caught a big fish today, and I asked the kitchen to boil fish soup, why don't Mr. Ming and the prince taste it together. ”

Mr. Ming looked him up and down, his expression unprecedentedly cold.

Xie Dongnian smiled, and a pair of peach blossom eyes could almost show ten miles of smoke, not like a young man looking frivolous, but staying and standing for a young year.

"Thank you for your good skills. Mr. Ming's voice was so cold that it seemed to be about to form ice ballast, "If you want it, I'll give it to you." ”

Xie Dongnian smiled slightly: "Your Highness treats Mr. with a lot of sincerity, everyone knows that Mr. has trespassed." ”

Mr. Ming laughed angrily: "Okay, since that's the case, I'll leave a rule for you, and I'll go and rest!"

After this day, Xie Dongnian really took over all the authority of Mr. Ming outside, and met him in diplomacy, and he was properly organized, not inferior to Mr. Ming by half a point.

The only piece of phoenix jade has been left in the hands of the little prince, and it has not been transferred to Xie Dongnian.

Xie Dongnian didn't show it on his face, but he became more and more jealous in his heart.

After accepting the things in Mr. Ming's hands, he realized that this person had been drilling everywhere in the past three years, digging out profits from one impossible place after another, but he did not keep these benefits in his hands, and he had set up a thread between the many forces in Lingbei.

I don't know when, the Shi officials in Lingbei have been woven into a fine net from a plate of scattered sand, checking and balancing each other, but they have related interests, which makes people know it, but they can't escape.

Even if he leaves this Mr. Ming, as long as he follows Mr. Ming's path, this big net will continue to operate as always, maintaining the control of Wenrui Palace's control over Lingbei.

Comprehending the complexity of this, Xie Dongnian was stunned to find that this Mr. Ming had really spent all his heart and courage in this Lingbei.

No wonder the little prince is so reluctant, I'm afraid that between these two people, there is sincerity.

It's not enough to separate the power in Mr. Ming's hands, as long as King Wenrui is soft-hearted for a while, all this will still return to Mr. Ming's hands.

Xie Dongnian thought about it all night, and finally made up his mind.

Since you want to seize power, you must seize it thoroughly.
