"Wen Sugong, don't forget Zhang Yongde, Li Chongjin, and the pretentious Li Yun." Wang Pu drank a lot of deer blood at noon, and he was restless, but Li Gu pulled him to talk about business, which was really unbearable.

"Hmph, Zhang Yongde is already a tiger with his teeth extracted, why be afraid?" Although Li Gu's character is not very good, his knowledge is extraordinary, his comments are relatively brief, and every word hits the point, "Although Li Chongjin has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, he is the same as copper stinking, and he can't quench his thirst from far away, so don't mention it." ”

"As for Li Yun, this person is ambitious and talented, and his ears are extremely soft, and he is definitely not a person who can achieve great things." Li Gu smiled mysteriously, "Since the death of the first emperor, Empress Dowager Fu has been adopting a military deployment strategy of strong cadres and weak branches at the instigation of Fan Zhen. ”

If Li Zhongyi was on the scene, he would also have to give a thumbs up and praise Li Gu for his foresight and extraordinary eyesight.

The Chenqiao Mutiny in history, as well as the trend after the establishment of the Zhao and Song dynasties, was really as Li Gu expected, Li Chongjin and Li Yun were defeated one after another, and Zhang Yongde was just a rich man with no real power.

However, Li Zhongyi's birth made Li Gu's good wishes and precise planning face serious unexpected risks.

Zhao Lao Er must cooperate with Li Gu in order to take the opportunity to seize the elite forbidden army of the pro-military division that was originally in the hands of Han Tong, which is inseparable from the decentralization measures before Chai Rong's death.

In essence, Chai Rong also adopted a military deployment strategy of strong cadres and weak branches, but Chai Rong knew people well, and while maintaining the overwhelming military strength of the imperial court, he did not particularly weaken the military strength of the border areas.

Historically, Song Taizu was afraid of the strong military strength of the Khitans, so he mistakenly chose the strategy of unification first in the south and then in the north.

After Song Taizu cleaned up the Southern Tang Dynasty and Houshu, the Khitans, who were originally in civil strife, regrouped under the banner of Yeluxian of Liaojingzong, which can be described as extremely difficult to control.

After Zhao Guangyi, a second commodity who did not understand the military, was defeated in the Gaoliang River, Zhao Song lost the historical opportunity of the Northern Expedition to seize Youzhou.

Although Li Gu is the current privy envoy, he is a civil servant, and he only knows the surface of some military operations, and he is not a soldier at all.

However, Fan Zhen didn't want Li Gu to continue to stay in the political hall, and after Li Yun escaped from Kaifeng, he casually found an excuse and kicked Fan Zhen to the Privy Council.

The Privy Council, because it is next to the west of the palace, is generally called Xifu by most of the people in the official face. Correspondingly, the government hall located in the east is called Dongfu.

Although the Western Mansion is in charge of the army, the financial and personnel power of the senior generals is in the hands of the Eastern Mansion. As a result, the authority of the Privy Council was increasingly weakened during Li Gu's tenure.

Li Gu was not only kicked out of the Eastern Mansion, but even his own land was also inserted by Fan Qian, how could he not be jealous?

Objectively speaking, Li Gu, the former prime minister and the current privy envoy, willingly assisted Zhao Lao Er in usurping the throne, and Fan's firm suppression played a vital role in it.

"Wen Su, the first emperor had a total of seven sons, and the three brothers of the present day were all killed by the puppet emperor of the late Han Dynasty on the same day. In addition, there are still three half-brothers in today, Cao Wang Chai Xi was born by Du Guifei, Ji Wang Chai Xijin and Qi Wang Chai Xi were born to Qin Guifei. Wang Pu took a big sip of the cold tea that had been cooled, barely restrained the rising desires, and carefully analyzed the future situation, "The two noble concubines Du and Qin are both dedicated by Li Jing of the Tang Kingdom in the south, and they are far less wealthy and powerful than the Fu family of the Daimyo Mansion. ”

Li Gu smiled slightly, Wang Pu said more subtlely, but he understood it as soon as he heard it. Du and Qin, the two noble concubines, are both rootless women in the deep palace, and after the situation is turned over, they are bound to abdicate today.

Among the two of Qin Guifei and Du Guifei, no matter who finally ascends the throne of the Queen Mother, it is absolutely impossible for them to grasp the real power of the government through the curtain like the Empress Dowager Fu.

Historically, Wang Pu and Li Gu actually just wanted to learn from the model and be a powerful real prime minister.

Who would have thought that Zhao Lao Er, who had been obedient before, turned around and completely overturned the originally planned strategy after Chen Qiao completely mastered the elite of the forbidden army.

Since then, Chai Zhou's Jiangshan Sheji has become the world of the Zhao family. Li Gu and Wang Pu hunted geese all day long, but they were pecked blind by the geese, not only did they not ask for a bargain, but they were also collectively scolded by the scholars and doctors who cherished the old Zhou, which can be said to be self-inflicted.

In the final analysis, Li Gu and Wang Pu wanted to do Dong Zhuo's abolition and covet the miracle of establishing a new emperor. However, they only thought of the beginning, and never expected the end. This so-called, the praying mantis catches cicadas, how do you know that the yellow finch is behind?

When Li Qiong's entire family gradually declined, the Tianwuwei that Li Qiong and Li Hu once mastered fell into the eyes of Wang and Li.

In this era, although there is no strategic thinking of the united front, everyone has an extremely simple and practical concept: the enemy of the enemy is a friend.

"Qi Wugong, I think that without further ado, choose an appropriate time as soon as possible, and order someone to probe Li Qiong's old man's tone, I don't know what you think?" Li Gu was a little anxious, and Fan Qian, who was in charge of power, was less and less interested in them.

Wang Pu's qualifications to enter the political hall are much earlier than Li Gu, this person, he has been the prime minister for a long time, not to mention his wrist and eyesight, but in terms of bearing, Wang Qiwu is more than one step better than Li Wensu.

"Wen Sugong, Li Qiong's family is weak, it should be them, not us, who are in a hurry." Wang Pu drank too much deer blood, and there was always a majestic fire burning in his chest, and he wished that he would end the empty talk in front of him as soon as possible, and fight with Mei Ji for a few more rounds before returning home.

Li Gu is also a freak, although he has a lot of beautiful women in his family, he himself is not very. Objectively speaking, this guy likes the great sense of accomplishment in holding power and impressing everyone.

This just corresponds to the old saying, where there is great oppression, there must be a corresponding rebound!

Wang Pu grew up in a poor family, if he didn't follow the right person, let alone play with Mei Ji at will, I was afraid that he wouldn't even be able to get together the money to marry his wife.

Li Gu grew up in a wealthy family, and when he was fourteen years old, he tasted the beautiful maid beside him. Later, with the improvement of official position and power, Li Gu completely suppressed the power of his wife's family, as long as he had the idea of hunting color, there were more people who wanted to be sycophants, and offered beauties to the door for his enjoyment.

This person, without exception, the more he lacks, the more he worries about something. There is no difference between ancient and modern times, it is determined by human nature!

Li Zhongyi once borrowed a famous saying, a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as stealing, stealing is better than robbing, and robbing is better than grabbing!

This famous sentence is a good interpretation of Wang Pu's current state of mind, especially after he drank a lot of deer blood, he thought about it like a tide, no matter how he covered it, his face turned red, and his forehead sweated.

"Qi Wugong, the contemptible person inadvertently heard about a rare thing." Li Gu drank too much wine, and the smoky feeling made him not notice Wang Pu's small movements in time to keep pinching his legs, "The Empress Dowager recently reprimanded Du Guifei and warned her not to provoke the relationship between the brothers of Jinshang. ”

"Huh? Is there such a thing? Wang Pu is worthy of being a natural political animal, and the shocking news that Li Gu inadvertently threw out instantly crushed his long-accumulated desires, and the whole person sat up violently, and hurriedly complained to Li Gu, "Wen Sugong, why didn't you say such a big thing earlier?" ”

Li Gu picked up the wine cup, and was a little unimpressed by Wang Pu's fuss, he explained lightly: "I also learned by chance, and I don't know the truth of this matter, how dare I talk nonsense?" ”

Wang Pu propped his hands on the wine case, his upper body was straight, his face changed, and he said eagerly: "If this matter is serious, it will definitely save us a lot of effort." ”

"Oh, Qi Wugong, why is that?" Li Gu glared at Wang Pu in surprise, "That Du Guifei is a suspicious place in the depths, and she is a woman in the deep palace who does not understand the world, and she was reprimanded by the Empress Dowager Fu...... Oh...... Wrong...... There is indeed a lot of writing......"

Li Gu is definitely not stupid, but after he drank too much, his brain was a little dysfunctional, and his reaction was much slower.

After Wang Pu's reminder, Li Gu immediately understood, since there were rumors of discord between Empress Dowager Fu and Du Guifei, wouldn't this be a godsend for the two of them who had ghosts in their hearts?

"Wen Sugong, although the copper stinker surnamed Li has a poor character and shallow knowledge, he also has golden sentences popping up from time to time, such as this paragraph, it is remarkable......" Wang Pu took a sip of cold tea again, and said, "Flies don't bite seamless eggs!" ”

"Haha, wonderful!" After Li Gu expelled some of the alcohol, his reaction was much faster than before, "In my opinion, it is better to let the protégé who is hiding in the shadows secretly contact Du Guifei's mother and son." If I'm not mistaken, Du Guifei's old father lives near Daxiangguo Temple? ”

Wang Pu nodded, smiled slightly, and said, "Although Du Guifei's father, Du Cheng, has been made a marquis, he is not good at management, and his family is not enough during the day. After succeeding to the throne today, the rewards in the palace are less than one day a day, and the life of the Du family is becoming more and more difficult. About three months ago, Du Cheng once asked someone to beg me, wanting to find an errand for the eldest son of the Du family in the court, although I did not agree, and I clearly refused, but now it happened to be the situation, and it actually came in handy. ”

Li Gu stroked his palms and laughed, grabbed the chopsticks on the wine table, and drew a huge clever word in the air, and then sighed: "A peck and a drink, there are days." ”

Wang Pu is worthy of being a person who does great things, and after the progress of the matter has a major eyebrow, he completely put the thoughts in his heart behind him, and said with a little excitement: "Without further ado, we must discuss it carefully, who is more appropriate to send to contact Du Cheng?" ”

As the saying goes, if you don't speculate for more than half a sentence, and if you have a thousand glasses of wine, Wang Pu and Li Gu conspired for a long time, until it was about to curfew, and then left Li Gu's mansion satisfied.
