Chapter Fifty-Four: Striking the West
When he left the mourning hall and turned a path and couldn't see so many white curtains piled up like a mountain, the merchant was slightly relieved. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Although the mourning hall was a serious place to stop the spirit, the cry mixed with whimpering still made her tense scalp and very uncomfortable. Those cries with their own hearts have no element of sorrow for the deceased at all, which makes people feel uncomfortable when they hear it.
The merchant looked around, found a corner under a leafy magnolia tree, and stood up, waiting for Li Mo's arrival. She didn't expect Li Mo to follow Li Zhi to Fangfu, but that's good, she hasn't seen him for a few days.
When Li Mo's sackcloth flickered by the shadow of the tree, the merchant had already seen him, and looked at his usual human skin mask and felt warm in his heart.
"Why are you here today?" Shang Shang tiptoed and looked around, but didn't find any figures, so he relaxed and asked softly.
"Lord Fang's ritual, no matter what, he is a respectable person." Li Mo's eyes were full of softness. Even if the merchant was wearing a featureless plain clothes, in his opinion, he was the same, so beautiful as a fairy.
"It's because the prince has something, right?" The merchant was not in the least impressed by his words. Based on her understanding of Li Mo, if it was really just because of respect for Fang Xuanling, he would probably come back after Li Shimin left, instead of following Li Zhi and Li Shimin to Fang Mansion.
"I can't hide anything from you!" Li Mo chuckled and stretched out his hand to touch the merchant's face, but he didn't deny it.
"What the hell is going on? How important is that? Shang Shang was a little curious, what was so important that Li Mo could give up what he had been insisting on?
Li Mo obviously heard the meaning she didn't say, there was a warmth in his heart, and he nodded lightly: "Lord Fang, the position of the left servant of Shangshu in the court will be vacant, and the emperor will strike the dynasty for three days, and after three days, this position will inevitably become the focus of contention, if you don't plan as soon as possible, I'm afraid that it will fall into the hands of others." ”
"The position of the left servant is vacant?" When the merchant heard this, he suddenly realized.
The position of Shangshu's left servant is undoubtedly the most powerful position in Shangshu Province at present, when Fang Xuanling was alive, this position was held by him, and he has always been safe and has never made a mistake, but once he died of illness, this position immediately became a sweetheart. Businessmen are willing to bet that it is not only Li Zhi's side who is now holding the idea of this position.
"Yes, I accompanied the prince this time, it is for this position, and the prince has now discussed this matter with the eldest grandson in the backyard." Li Mo did not hide anything from the merchants, he believed in the merchants.
"Have you ever inquired about the emperor's intentions?" After listening to Li Mo's words, the merchant hesitated slightly.
At present, their advance actions are important, but just after sending Fang Xuanling away, Li Shimin's mood must be bad, at this time, will rashly raising the issue of Fang Xuanling's position attract Li Shimin's disgust?
"Listening to the meaning of the prince, the eldest grandson may have mentioned that the emperor has several candidates in his heart, but he has not yet made a final decision, and it is estimated that it will be proposed at the court meeting in three days, and now the prince is just taking precautions, as long as he does not enter the hands of the three princes and one party, everything will be easy to say."
Li Mo nodded approvingly, they also thought of the questions raised by the merchants, the emperor's opinion is of course very important, and the candidates they propose cannot exceed the scope of the emperor's heart. What they are doing now is to pick out the person who supports Li Zhi the most from among the candidates in the emperor's mind, so that the situation between the DPRK and China will still be in their hands in the future.
"Who is the right servant shooting at the center now?" Shang Shang thought about it, she didn't know about the affairs of the court, but she vaguely remembered that there should be a right servant shooting, right? It's just that I don't know who is in charge now? This person's opinion should also have a considerable status in the emperor's mind, right?
"There is no right servant shooting in the middle of the court now." Li Mo shook his head, it was for this reason that the position of the left servant was very important.
"Since Gao Shilian and Lord Gao, the position of the right servant has been vacant, and it is led by Lord Fang, and now that Lord Fang is going again, someone from the left and right servants is bound to come out to take over."
"So that's it?" The merchant figured it out a bit, "I wonder why I've never heard of the right servant shooting!" It turned out that there was no one in office. ”
"Hmmm! Therefore, this appointment is very important, and there is no room for mistakes, and the discussion between the prince and the eldest grandson is precisely for this matter. Li Mo frowned slightly, this matter is really not easy to handle, and for a while, the prince and he were a little unsure who would be in charge.
If it is according to the current situation, it is best for the eldest grandson Wuji to take the position, but if he is proposed, I am afraid that it is also the most resistant, and King Wu will not let the eldest grandson Wuji once again ascend to the position of the left and right servants to grasp the lifeline of the Tang Dynasty, but if he wants to change people---- he is really worried that his people are not enough to suppress the power of King Wu in the court.
"Is there an eldest grandson among the emperor's favorite people?" Shang Shang lowered his head slightly and thought for a moment, then raised his head and asked.
"Listening to the meaning of Lord Changsun's words, there must be something, but it's hard for him to say when it comes to himself." Li Mo didn't understand what Shang Shang meant.
Well---- that's true, judging from the qualifications of the eldest grandson to follow the emperor, this position of the left servant of Shangshu is well deserved, but because of his relationship with the crown prince, King Wu will not let him be satisfied, if the eldest grandson is really in charge of the government, it is estimated that he will not be far from death."
The merchant muttered under his breath. It's not that she deliberately said that the eldest grandson Wuji was extremely vicious, but it was really because the most famous of the eldest grandson Wuji in history was to create the extremely famous rebellion case in the Gaozong Dynasty, and many descendants surnamed Li, including Li Ke, were dragged in, which is beyond doubt.
"What did you say?" Li Mo looked at Shang Shang suspiciously, her whispering voice was too small, and Li Mo didn't hear it clearly for a while.
"Oh---- nothing, I was just thinking, since King Wu is also staring at these two positions, why don't you use these two positions to attract his attention?" The merchant looked at Li Mo and said casually.
"Grab his attention?" Li Mo's eyes lit up as if he had thought of something, but he couldn't grasp it for a while.
"Yes! You just have to let him take this position, just be careful not to let him really succeed, you will put the eldest grandson in the middle of the book, and when the fight is inexorable, the prince can speak in front of the emperor, find a reason to let these two positions vacant, the position is vacant, and someone has to do it, then the eldest grandson can be the agent, isn't it over, didn't the original Lord Fang also act as the right servant? It's not without precedent! ”
The merchant looked at Li Mo disappreciatively. What official position and what authority? It's all empty! There are many people who can't do things in his position, as long as the eldest grandson Wuji has the support of the emperor, isn't it logical to act as a servant on the left and right?
"Merchant! How did you come up with the idea? This method can save us a lot of trouble, and if the plan is more perfect, it is not impossible for those princes to fail. Li Mo looked at the merchant with surprise on his face.
The more Li Mo thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was feasible, and he couldn't help but smile and step forward to wrap his arms around Shang Shang and peck her lightly on the cheek.
The merchant's words made Li Momao pause. Instead of confronting Li Ke head-to-head and leaving an intolerable impression in front of the emperor, it is better to strike at the west like this, which can not only achieve the goal, but also gain a good reputation. Isn't it the best of both worlds?
"What do you do?" The merchant was embarrassed by his sudden attack, and hurriedly reached out and pressed on Li Mo's chest, pushing him away.
"Why didn't I realize you were so smart?" Li Mo laughed and teased her.
"That's stupid!" The businessman's cheeks were dizzy, and he glanced at him, but his heart was soft.
She was originally reluctant to get involved in such a thing, but she couldn't bear to see Li Mo embarrassed, and finally said something that shouldn't be said. I just don't know if this is good or bad for Li Ke, if it can make him completely dispel some thoughts, I don't know if he will have a better life in the future?
Speaking from her heart, Li Ke is not bad to her, and she has been relieved of the siege several times, is this considered revenge? Seeing Li Moxing turn around and go back to the backyard, Shang Shang's heart couldn't be calm. Now she only hopes that her words will not cause too bad consequences, and she hopes that Li Ke can give up her persistence after suffering a few setbacks.
The merchant raised his head slightly, watching the sun fall sporadically among the leaves above his head. If there are some things that can't be changed, then allow her to be selfish!
Li Mo and Li Zhi are two sides of the same coin, if Li Zhi can't step on the peak, then Li Mo will inevitably accompany him to the top! Her heart is not that big, she just thinks that there is someone who can accompany her all over the world!
"Since you have made it impossible for me to choose to come here, then ---- please allow me to steal some happiness in this cold day!"
The merchant raised his wrist, half-covering the sunlight shining on his face, and muttered softly. I don't know if God heard her request, but I saw that in the green shadow, the light and shadow were constantly mottled and beating.
The memorial of the Liang State Mansion is still continuing in a noisy manner, and the courtiers from all walks of life have made their appearances, turning the Liang State Mansion into the forefront of the court infighting, and the three princes Wu Wang Li Ke and the crown prince Li Zhi, who live in the guest room of the Liang State Mansion, have obviously become the center of this lively whirlpool.
The courtiers who were clearly divided went in and out of the guest room of the prince and Li Ke every day, and occasionally the two parties bumped into each other, and they also turned their faces and let out a cold snort from their nostrils to show their disdain.
Watching this farce, Shang Shang was really speechless. With Li Shimin's wisdom and the number of secret people under him, even she and Li Zhi knew that they had eaten stinky tofu, so how could they not know that these things were about to come to light? These courtiers really took this wise monarch too lightly!
But fortunately, maybe it was her idea that worked, and the excitement in front of the prince's door only continued until the second day, and only Li Mo, the Zhan thing, was still by the prince's side, as if he really worshiped Fang Xuanling with his heart. Although the emperor didn't say anything, judging from the imperial meal given by the emperor, he must be very satisfied with the prince's performance.
Although Li Ke was also somewhat aware of the emperor's attitude, he couldn't care about the current major events. As long as he gets one of the two positions of Shangshu's left servant shot or right servant shot, his weight in the court will rise sharply, and even the crown prince will have to give him three points, so why worry that he has no chance to win back the trust of his father?
Li Ke stood in the room and looked at the guest room where Li Zhi, the prince of the Southern Chamber, lived, with a somewhat complicated expression on his face. If this thing doesn't succeed, his disadvantage will be a foregone conclusion, and it will be very difficult to turn the situation back then!
"It's up to you to make or break it! Li Zhi! I hope you won't let me down! Li Ke muttered to himself.
I haven't asked for tickets or rewards since I entered V, uh---- let's shout! The ponytail is still not very adaptable, if you like my text, please don't be stingy with the tickets in your hand!
