Chapter 249: Coming up with an idea
Since the second prince and the people of the Qi family came to Lingfeng City together, the relationship between them can be imagined, and I don't know when the Qi family started to get so close to the second prince.
Since he came to chat, Ye Houde also chatted with Second Master Qi in a good manner.
From the situation in the northwest to the world's major events, there is always a lot of talk.
After all, the second master of Qi has lived in the capital for a long time, and he can be said to know the interpersonal relationship in the capital well, but he has taught Ye Houde a good lesson.
After listening to those intricate interpersonal relationships, Ye Houde thanked him sincerely: "Thank you Second Brother Qi for your advice, otherwise, you wouldn't know if you inadvertently offend people one day." ”
Second Master Qi smiled and said, "Brother Ye Xian is polite, you and I are in-laws, so we should help each other." ”
As he spoke, Second Master Qi glanced around with sharp eyes, and then approached Ye Houde and whispered: "Now the entire Chengqi Kingdom looks calm on the surface, but in fact, there are dark forces everywhere that are ready to move, plus I heard that the emperor's dragon body has been unsafe recently, and there is even more turmoil in the capital, and there may be an accident at any time." ”
"What? The emperor's dragon body is not safe? Will there be changes in the capital? Before Second Master Qi's words fell, Ye Houde exclaimed in a low voice.
"Well, Brother Ye Xian has been busy with government affairs in the northwest, and now he is dedicated to reetting the victims, so naturally he doesn't have time to care more about the situation in the DPRK and China." Second Master Qi looked at Ye Houde and nodded solemnly, and then lowered his voice: "Brother Ye Xian should know that the current prince has mediocre qualifications and is not good at governance, and the emperor has been dissatisfied with him more than once, and he has long intended to abolish the prince. If there really is a day when the crown prince is deposed. Which prince does Ye Xiandi think is more likely to be crowned crown prince? ”
"Second Brother Qi, this is not something that can be discussed casually." Ye Houde's face changed suddenly when he heard this, and he reminded sharply.
How do you know that Second Master Qi just smiled slightly when he heard this, looked at Ye Houde calmly and said: "Brother Ye Xian, you and I are now as close as a family, and the family does not speak two words, besides, this is the northwest, it is Lord Ye's territory, foolish brother believes." The conversation between you and me will certainly not get out. Otherwise, the foolish brother would not have said these heartfelt words to you. ”
Ye Houde didn't want to listen to it anymore, and immediately persuaded: "Second Brother Qi, although this is the northwest land. But it's not necessarily safe in this house. There are some things that you still can't talk nonsense. Again. The emperor's health has always been healthy, even if his health is not safe now, it is temporary, if there is really a ****, the prince will be abolished and set up separately. That's not something you and I can decide, the so-called disaster comes from the mouth, and the second brother Qi will still say less in the future. ”
"What Brother Ye Xian said is extremely true, Brother Fool never talks about government affairs with people casually on weekdays, and today he also has a very happy conversation with Brother Ye Xian, I believe in Brother Ye Xian's character, so I said a few more words." Second Master Qi nodded again and again after hearing this.
Then, after the second master Qi picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, he seemed to suddenly remember, and asked with concern: "I heard from His Royal Highness the Second Prince today that Brother Ye Xiandi has promised to solve the problem of selling grain for the merchants who transported grain from Jiangnan, I wonder if Brother Ye Xiandi can come up with a specific solution?" ”
Speaking of that batch of high-priced grain, Ye Houde had a headache, and couldn't help but ask with a wry smile: "Eh, don't hide it from Second Brother Qi, I haven't thought of a solution after thinking about it for a day today, and I don't know what to do, why don't Second Brother Qi help and give me an idea?" ”
"Ah, this Brother Ye Xian is difficult to be a foolish brother, if the foolish brother has a good idea here, His Royal Highness the Second Prince will not hand over this problem to you." Second Master Qi said apologetically.
"Alas, it's a good thing to have grain, but where can ordinary people afford such a high price of grain? Where can I find so much money? Ye Houde's frowning, his eyes were melancholy, and his tired face was even more haggard.
Seeing him like this, Second Master Qi sighed while lowering his head in contemplation, and suddenly patted his leg and said, "Brother Ye Xian, Brother Fool has thought of a way here." ”
"Second Brother Qi, come and listen." Ye Houde's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Second Master Qi and urged.
"That's right, Brother Yu heard that the grain sold in the northwest today is all transported from Liangqu Villa. In this case, if Brother Ye Xian can find the person in charge of Liangqu Villa, discuss with them, and ask them to raise the price of grain, then wouldn't this matter be solved? Not only can His Royal Highness the Second Prince let the grain transported from Jiangnan not lose money, but this Liangqu Villa can also make more money, isn't this a great joy? The more the second master Qi spoke, the happier he became, "Brother Fool also heard that the second brother and sister also let people buy a lot of high-priced grain from other places, so Brother Ye Xian doesn't have to worry about losing money if he can't sell it." ”
"Second Brother Qi, this is your idea?" Ye Houde really didn't want to say anything more.
"Yes, Brother Ye Xian, this method is okay, as long as the person in charge of Liangqu Villa agrees, that will be solved, and you don't need to spend a penny more, Your Royal Highness the Second Prince can also have an explanation, and the benefits of Brother Ye Xian will definitely be indispensable in the future." Second Master Qi smiled proudly.
"So, thank you Second Brother Qi." Ye Houde held his breath in his heart, so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, but he still smiled and thanked him.
"Well, the hour is not early, the foolish brother will not disturb your rest, and I will leave." Finally, Second Master Qi stood up.
"If this matter can be resolved satisfactorily, His Royal Highness the Second Prince will definitely remember Brother Ye Xian. It's ...... then. Second Master Qi didn't continue, but looked at Ye Houde with the eyes you know, and left with a smile.
Second Master Qi left, Ye Houde did not immediately go back to the house to rest, but entered the study.
Sitting at his desk in a gloomy state, his brows furrowed, his eyes staring at a certain place unconsciously, only feeling that his mind was full of confusion and did not know how to decide.
The purpose of Second Master Qi coming over today was to chat with him because he was bored.
It's obviously an ulterior motive!
That is, he recruited him for His Royal Highness the Second Prince, and he was the one who wanted him to become the Second Prince!
How is this possible!
From a very young age, his teacher taught him to be loyal to the king and patriotism, that is, to be loyal to the king and to the country.
What princes, grandsons, relatives and relatives, no matter how powerful and powerful he is, he must listen to the king.
Otherwise, it is a rebellion!
Although the second master of Qi said it is right, the current situation is unstable, and there can be changes at any time, but since the emperor is still there, the position of the prince has not been abolished, and although the prince's qualifications are mediocre, he is still conscientiously performing the duties of the prince.
In this case, if he is in the company of the second prince, if the matter fails, not only will he be killed, but he will also be connected with the nine clans, and all the descendants of the surname Ye will die for this.
Therefore, no matter how big the pie painted by the second prince, he would never agree.
However, what can be done to not offend the second prince and help him solve the matter satisfactorily? (To be continued.) )
