Chapter 419: Trade-offs
Under Zhao Yi's interference, Li Qian's appointment was simply and crudely determined. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In order to appease their respective people, Wang Jidao and Xiong Zhengpei were very busy.
Before the document was sent, Zhao Yi urgently summoned Xia Zhe, the governor of Shaanxi.
"The honor guest of the county lord of Jianan, I didn't give him a title. Zhao Yi pondered what he wanted to say, afraid that what he said would be too clear, and that the other party would not understand, "It's not because I don't respect the county lord of Jianan, on the contrary, the county lord of Jianan is my only cousin, and we grew up together in the palace, and we are closer than anyone else." But what about the guest of honor of the county lord of Jianan, how to say it, it was chosen by my mother for the lord of Jianan county herself, and now the lord of Jianan county has gone to settle in Shanxi with him, and I, as an elder brother, can't let Jianan stay in Shanxi for the rest of his life, right? To call you this time is to entrust people to you. As for you, treat him as if he were your own nephew. He has not yet reached the age of a weak crown, and there will inevitably be inconsiderate actions in his actions, you have to bear with him more, give him more opportunities to experience, so that he can quickly stand alone. When there is any war, send him up to supervise it, lest others say that he can be the commander of this capital by relying on me. ”
When Xia Zhe heard this, he immediately knelt down and responded respectfully: "Your Majesty, the minister must take care of the honor guests of the county lord of Jianan." ”
But his heart was roaring.
Since you want to promote your brother-in-law, then put him in the Shanxi camp! The leader of the Shanxi camp is also the commander of the capital, or is he from Yipin! There is no need to fight! What is the matter with you transferring your brother-in-law to Shaanxi? Wang Cheng, the commander of the Shaanxi Metropolitan Division, is already a fool, and now you have another person, and you still can't let them, the officials of Shaanxi, live? Do you still let the officialdom in Shaanxi run normally?
Now that he is still trying to find a way to get the honor guests of the county lord of Jianan to the army, do you want him to put the lives of those soldiers in the wrong place and give your brother-in-law a foothold?
Is this a human thing?
But if he doesn't do it, someone will, right?
And it's a rush to do.
Just like a few days ago, Wang Jidao made an accident with a student appointed in Anxi, Wang Jidao wrote a letter to the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, asking him to help turn the big thing into a small thing, and the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang was not willing to help because he was neglected by this student of Wang Jidao, so Wang Jidao took the opportunity to transfer the governor of Minzhejiang to Yungui as the governor, and transferred another of his students to Fujian and Zhejiang as the governor, and the matter of his students was over.
The bottom of the kettle is drawn, and now Wang Jidao and Xiong Zhengpei are both playing soft knives to kill.
The world is different!
He only hoped that he could work peacefully in the position of governor of Shaanxi for three years, find a way to be transferred to the capital as a squire or something, and be satisfied until Zhishi in peace.
Xia Zhe came out of the imperial study, and when he looked up, he saw Sun Degong standing aside.
This is a man who cannot be offended.
He stepped forward with a smile, whispered a few words of greeting with Sun Degong, and stuffed a big red seal for Sun Degong.
Sun Degong's reputation in Shilin is not bad.
The main thing is that he does as much as he collects. The title is clear, and there is no bullying for children. Everyone is looking for him to do something, happy!
Xia Zhe had nothing to do with him and gave him a red seal, but he just had the mentality of "I'd rather suffer a loss than offend".
Sun Degong misunderstood.
He thought for a while and said, "The emperor called you to go, did he tell you about Li Qian, the lord of Jianan County?"
It's not that if you marry a princess or a county lord, you are a guest of honor.
This is a title, which is to be filed with the Ministry of Rites.
Although Li Qian married Jianan, he did not get this title.
Fortunately, Li Qian didn't care, and Jiang Xian didn't take this title in his eyes, so it was quite strange that no one mentioned it.
Xia Zhe hurriedly answered "yes".
Sun Degong touched the thick red seal in his sleeve, and muttered: "Lord Xia, the emperor wants the county lord of Jianan to return to Beijing. ”
As for the rest, it depends on whether Xia Zhe has the ability to comprehend it.
He can't say everything clearly. When the time comes, when the two turn their faces, they will be used as a handle to hang out, right?
What do you mean?
Xia Zhe really didn't understand.
But this is not the place and time to speak, so he had to leave the palace with this sentence.
In a somewhat complicated alley in the west of the city, Kang Xiangyun was drinking with his good friend Zheng Mian.
This is the third time they've gotten together for a drink in the past few days.
There was only a small plate of peanuts and a few pieces of old tofu on the table, but the wine was the best Fenjiu.
The two of them took small sips, as if they were drinking the elixir and jade liquid, and enjoyed it very much.
Kang Xiangyun said: "Are we really going to follow the county lord of Jianan to make a west seat?"
Zheng Mian carefully took a sip of wine, and then said, "I think it can be done." ”
He was a man in his forties, short in five, with slightly dark skin, and a fat man, who looked like a squire rather than a scholar. But he spoke in a clear manner, and he knew that it was unusual as soon as he heard it.
"Think about it, why did the county lord of Jianan suddenly come to the capital? And he also concealed the news and quietly lived outside the city. What is the need for a county lord who has just left the pavilion to come to the capital?" he said, taking another sip of wine, "I guess that nine times out of ten, the county lord of Jianan is here to do errands for the Li family. Now that the Li family has just become the chief soldier of Shanxi, what can the county lord of Jianan do to go to Beijing in person? Not to run for Li Qian, but to come to the capital to deal with those who can help the Li family. ”
It's a pity that Jiang Xian is not here.
If Jiang Xian was here, she would definitely value Zheng Yan more.
Kang Xiangyun has always been very convinced of Zheng Mian, so naturally he will not doubt his bold guess, but said, "Will the Li family be too anxious?"
"Don't worry!" Zheng said confidently, "I have carefully studied the promotion method of the Li family. It was normal in the past few years, but in the past two years, the Li family has leaned on the Empress Dowager Cao, and it is not ordinary fast. What was the scene at that time, on the one hand, the weak Empress Dowager Cao, and on the other hand, the strong Zhenguo Mansion and the emperor, but the Li family chose the Empress Dowager Cao stubbornly. After that, the Li family didn't know what means they used to marry the lord of Jianan. Do you think these are all coincidences?"
Kang Xiangyun's eyebrows moved, and he said, "You mean, this is the Li family's intention?"
"I don't know if it's intentional or not. Zheng Mian said lightly, "The plan is in the people, and the success is still in the sky." can at least see that the Li family is ambitious and wants to be the courtier who dominates the party. ”
Kang Xiangyun's face changed slightly.
"But danger also means opportunity. Zheng Mian continued, "We can't go to the south, instead of continuing to stay in the capital to make a living, it is a good choice to go to Shanxi - the Li family has ambitions, so we can have a foothold!"
What they have is the art of governing the country, and only the heroes of one side can use their talents.
Friends, add more to the spirit beast eggs of the clear sky and ink clouds!
