Chapter Seventy-Five: The Visit

It's still on the shelves.,Words like testimonials on the shelves can't come out with the current status code.,Make up for it later... Ask for a virgin * woman

Duan Zhong has always been an extremely optimistic person, but for this matter, Duan Chong couldn't laugh a little. Perhaps, on the surface, it is just a normal thing for this metropolitan commander of the Jiangbei camp to return to Beijing, but people with a discerning eye know the subtlety of the situation between the DPRK and China. Emperor Wen of Liang has always had a knife hanging over his head, and he doesn't know when he will cut himself down, and there is no prince in the Southern Liang Kingdom, and the two highnesses are unwilling to let go of this throne, which is destined to the inevitability of something happening.

Duan Chong was a liberal arts student in his last life, and he knew that there were countless tragedies of fratricidal brothers in history, but Duan Chong was not a saint, and he couldn't rely on "Zhihu Ye" to persuade any party, so he could only support his brother with instinctive will.

Emperor Liang Wendi is a smart person, and the reason why he wants to make his birthday so grand must have other purposes. And Duan Chong's speculation is that Emperor Wen Liang finally made up his mind to take advantage of his birthday to elect the crown prince. As for who Emperor Liang wanted to choose, Duan Zhong couldn't guess, or Emperor Liang himself didn't think about it.

Duan Zhong once analyzed his advantages and disadvantages to Xiao Beiping. The first point is that Xiao Beiping is the eldest son of Emperor Wen of Liang, and the eldest son has always been the first choice for succession to the throne. Moreover, since Xiao Beiping is the eldest son, if he wants to abolish his elders and establish a young child, he must need a reason, and Xiao Beiping has shown the good demeanor and bearing that a prince should have from beginning to end, and at the same time he is still a big filial son in front of the world, which is also an extremely important point. And the reason why Xiao Beiding dared to openly argue with Xiao Beiping was nothing more than the experience of supervising the country during the two years when Emperor Wen Liang was seriously ill, and secretly cultivated a large number of forces. These forces can be the most poisonous poison in the world, or they can be the sharpest blades.

Who is the world of this Nanliang? Emperor Liang Wendi! Would an emperor tolerate a force under his nose that he couldn't control? Not even his own son. Therefore, Xiao Beiding's actions are very cautious and careful, because if he is not careful, this is the act of digging his own grave, and it is the most poisonous poison in the world. Similarly, these forces also brought great benefits to Xiao Beiding. The prince has his own palace - the East Palace, and the East Palace can have palace officials, which is completely the power of the prince's private family, and the official configuration is completely modeled after the system of the imperial court, and it also has a private guard similar to the emperor's forbidden army, and there is no doubt that the forces managed by Xiao Beiding will firmly stand on the side of the Second Highness, including Prime Minister Zhu Zhenyang, Imperial Historian Ye Chaojie, and former Jiangnan Governor Liao Zhangjin Duan Zhong did not dare to calculate how huge Xiao Beiding's power was, because the results were extremely amazing, What's more, behind Xiao Beiding stands such a behemoth as the "Jiangbei Camp", which is related to the military power of the life and death of the entire Southern Liang.

As for who of the two brothers of the Xiao family can become the ultimate winner of this battle, Duan Chong's inference is that between five and five, anyone can have a chance. As long as Xiao Beiping can continue to maintain this situation in peace and stability during this period of time, without making any mistakes, the position of the prince will be stable for Xiao Beiping. Because Emperor Wen of Liang had no reason to skip the eldest son who did not make any mistakes and make the younger son the crown prince.

However, Xiao Beiding naturally would not be so restrained, and would definitely make some moves to force Xiao Beiping to make mistakes, or even kill Xiao Beiping. The previous assassinations of Xiao Beiping have failed, and with the help of Duan Chong, Xiao Beiding has also suffered repeated setbacks recently, but these setbacks have not hurt Xiao Beiding's bones, and since everyone knows that this period of time will be the most critical time, there will be a small abacus in their hearts. So at the end of the conversation, Duan Zhong said to Xiao Beiping in a serious tone: "Don't make mistakes!" ”

For the first time, Duan Zhong tasted the mood of fidgeting for others. So Duan Chong decided to take some action, but before taking action, he needed to know some information and news, but fortunately, the people under Duan Chong's hands were very diligent.

So when there were still three days before Emperor Liang Wendi's birthday, Duan Zhong talked in his house for more than an hour, and then the two had a meal in the outer building, and went directly to a mansion in the south of the city.

———————————————————————————————————————

Since the governor Liao Zhangjin was left in Beijing, although he still has the identity of a second-rank member of the court, he is a real false position, all his authority has been hollowed out, and he is no different from an empty shell now. There is nothing to do except for the routine entry into the palace once every three days to listen to the court, and even if he goes to the court, it seems that he can't speak on his turn. Where there used to be scenery in the position of the governor of Jiangnan.

The tree fell and the macaque scattered, and Lord Liao Zhangjin felt this deeply at this moment. Although he is still nominally a member of the second grade, the desertion of this courtyard has reached an extreme, and I am afraid that no one will enter or leave within a day when he goes out to clean his own house. So these days, except for the occasional visit to the Prime Minister, there is really nothing to do.

However, the Governor still has great expectations for his future. After all, he has been operating in Jiangnan for so many years, and the intertwined relationships are all over the place, and it is impossible for the imperial court to uproot all its forces, and more importantly, he is climbing the big tree of the second prince, as long as the second highness is on the throne, the position of the governor of Jiangnan will return to his hands sooner or later.

There are three days left for His Majesty Emperor Liang Wendi's birthday, so the Governor wrote to ask for some silver from Jiangnan, after all, after being the Governor of Jiangnan for so many years, he still has some savings, and he is preparing a gift for His Majesty. While he was thinking about it, the little servant in the house came over and reported, "My lord, there are two guests outside the door who are coming to visit you. ”、

The Governor frowned, who else would visit him at this time? After thinking about it, he finally nodded: "Please let the two guests in." ”

He took orders, and in a short time he led two young men in. When the Governor saw these two guests, he immediately jumped up from his stool and ran over: "Your Highness, why are you here?" ”

Xiao Beiping waved his hand and helped up the governor who was about to salute: "Let's go out of the palace today to take a look, and come to visit the adults by the way, I guess I didn't cause trouble to the adults." ”

Lord Liao shook his head again and again: "No, no, His Royal Highness is willing to deign to come to the old mansion, it is the honor of the old man!" With that, he welcomed Duan Zhong and Xiao Beiping inside, and sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard.

At the beginning, it was inevitable to have some fake politeness and greetings, and by the way, I also wanted to comfort the old and frustrated minister in front of me. No one dared to doubt the degree of Duan's heavy mouth. If it weren't for our Lord Liao Zhangjin who knew that he didn't know how many feet he had participated in this end of Duan Zhong, he would definitely be moved to pay attention to Duan as a year-old friend. And listening to what Duan Zhong said, the Governor had an urge to pull Duan Chong's skin off.

And in this conversation against his will, Duan Chong intentionally or unintentionally said that Duan Chong had gone to Hangzhou a few days ago, and visited the governor's mansion by the way, which made Lord Liao startled. Isn't this obviously a weasel giving a New Year's greeting to a chicken, with bad intentions? And what did Duan Chong want to do when he went to his own mansion, Lord Governor was in a cold sweat in his heart. Could it be that he is looking for his unsuccessful son? After all, the eldest prince Liao Xulin is now a wanted criminal in the whole country.

It's a pity that the Governor didn't expect that Duan Chong's purpose of going to Hangzhou had nothing to do with his son, but went to Miss Liao Jiajia.

And after some greetings, under Xiao Beiping's side knocks, one thing was finally mentioned: the position of the governor.

Lord Liao is unswervingly on the side of His Second Highness, this is a fact that everyone knows. And the reason why Xiao Beiping dared to ask this question was because Duan Chong seemed to have inadvertently mentioned that he had recently found a young man who looked very similar to your son near the Prime Minister's Mansion

Sweat immediately ran down the Doge's forehead. Where his son went, Lord Liao Zhangjin actually knew, or it was an order from this Lao Tzu from beginning to end. Since the incident of the Shen family, the governor was so angry that he ordered his son to go to Nanjing and defect to His Royal Highness. Because at this time, only His Royal Highness can keep his son here. And in order to get the support of the Jiangnan forces, His Royal Highness also needs the help of the Governor.

So the days when the eldest prince Liao Xulin disappeared was actually at the foot of the Son of Heaven, in the city of Nanjing. Naturally, this palace can't be entered, and the safest place is the Prime Minister's Mansion. Duan Zhong had conceived about this, and ordered Jiang Mingchen to monitor day and night, and finally found a little bit of horse's foot. Of course, it is impossible to find the figure of the eldest prince Liao Xulin outside the Prime Minister's Mansion as Duan Zhong said, but to convey a message to the governor: I know where your son is!

The reason why Duan Zhong grasped this news and didn't leak out the matter of Liao Xulin's son in the Prime Minister's Mansion was because he forced His Royal Highness to be in a hurry, and he would definitely do such a thing as killing people and destroying his mouth. And Duan Zhong chose to tell the Governor that this was because Liao Xulin was the son of the Governor. Blood is thicker than water, and family affection is here. The life or death of your own son is up to you.

Perhaps in the eyes of others, this Governor of Jiangnan is just a local magistrate who is about to lose power, but Duan Zhong knows very well how solid the foundation of the Governor Governor has been in Jiangnan for so many years, and without the support of Jiangnan, His Royal Highness will not be able to do many things.

So Duan Zhong chose to make a move, made his status and posture clear, and gave the governor a choice! It's just that this multiple-choice question seems too difficult.
