Chapter 19: The Foolish Bird Emerges
Not to mention Lu Yunzhi's noble status, he is already famous as the emperor, even the killers in Lu Yunzhi's hands can't afford to offend, if he annoys Lu Yunzhi one day and doesn't do it himself, the gang under him will kill people and destroy their bodies, every time Xu Youzhen thinks of this, he is inexplicably in a cold sweat,
But not only that, the most important thing is that although Lu Yunzhi is not in power now, his subordinates and friends have a lot of real power appointments, which are worthy of Xu Youzhen's wooing, such as Fang Qingze, who controls the finances, and Dong De, who is now a little bit against Fang Qingze, and Bai Yong, the nominal chief soldier of the township regiment, and Qu Xiangtian, who is eyeing the south, and Guangliang Qin Rufeng and others who stayed near the capital under Qu Xiangtian and manipulated the five military camps and Shenji battalions of the country's sharp blades, as well as Yang Shan and Yang Zhun and other civil officials who are incompatible with themselves, These people can belong to Lu Yunzhi's lineage, although the current Xu Youzhen has mastered a large number of civil and official groups, and has controlled the cabinet, and there are still a large number of officials and imperial histories under him, but he still can't compete with Lu Yunzhi and other Zhongzheng forces.
Although the Zhongzheng line is powerful, but just like the name, Zhongzheng is incomparable, maintains a neutral attitude, only busy with a file within his own power, and never encroaches on other departments, now in Xu Youzhen's view, it is a good opportunity, Lu Yunzhi ignores the government and politics, leaving a large vacuum of power, he is not as good as joining forces and forming an alliance with Fang Qingze and others in the Lu family to destroy the two parties of Shi Cao and seek to maximize power, but before doing this, Xu Youzhen still hopes to probe the tone of Fang Qingze and others, So he took a time to take a generous gift to visit Fang Qingze,
What Xu Youzhen didn't expect was that Fang Qingze, who he estimated that he was most likely to be tempted, looked at him coldly, and ridiculed Xu Youzhen for killing Yu Qian, saying that a timid person must kill the person he was afraid of, even if that person was already dead, because those beam-jumping clowns had been scared and so on, Xu Youzhen's nose was about to be crooked, who couldn't hear that this beam-jumping clown was referring to him, but he could only press the anger in his heart and laugh sarcastically, how could he think that Fang Qingze had already seen Xu Youzhen's intentions, and clearly rejected Xu Youzhen,
Xu Youzhen was furious, and thought to herself: When you destroy the two parties of Shi Cao one day, and when you have enough strength, it is not too late to clean up your Zhongzheng line, if the lion is always in captivity, it will always become a big cat, and you can recuperate in the Zhongzheng lineage, and the moment when the wild is exhausted is your death,
However, Xu Youzhen didn't run in vain this trip, at least he also got a clear answer from Fang Qingze, that is, the two don't help each other, let them fight, and this is the attitude of the entire Zhongzheng lineage, thinking about it, this is not the worst result,
Xu Youzhen has the confidence to fight Cao Shi and the two parties independently, since Zhongzheng is not busy helping, then let him go, do it himself, do it as he says, so Xu Youzhen organized this family banquet, and took the opportunity to sigh and follow the example of Wang Yun at the end of the Han Dynasty to scold Shi Cao and the two parties at the banquet, and find a way to use everyone's mouth, but at this time it is a matter of confidentiality, so Xu Youzhen strictly controls the candidates, and those who can be present are their most intimate people.
Who raises what birds, Xu Youzhen's subordinates are naturally mostly people who observe words and look extremely black, seeing the boss frowning and sighing, the one by one is anxious like a mourner, and after asking, I only heard Xu Youzhen tell the reason, just because Shi Heng and Cao Jixiang were greedy and arrogant, so they also sighed one by one.
This kind of thing is not clear, so it is better to say less, in the future, if you shake hands and shoot the first bird, at this time, the person who speaks may become a prisoner, anyway, for now, it is not wrong to sigh and scold,
Xu Youzhen sighed for a long time before he said, "Is it possible that no one in my Ming Dynasty can control this martial artist and eunuch?" At this time, Li Xian got up and spoke: "Your Excellency, you need to think more, we are all loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty, and most of you here are also imperial historians, you only need to go up to Shi Heng and Cao Jixiang, and then I will echo the voice, with our power in the court, even if we can't bring them down at one time, we can also hit their arrogance." ”
Xu Youzhen nodded, Li Xian is really a good person, and he didn't lose himself to getting him into the cabinet as his own person at that time, although he is now a cabinet minister, but the cabinet is headed by Xu Youzhen, so Li Xian usually takes Xu Youzhen as the head of the horse, and Xu Youzhen is very satisfied with this,
After listening to Li Xian's words, everyone was relieved, since someone took the lead, then express their opinions, anyway, the culprit of the East Window incident was still this Li Xian's turn, so they got up and echoed,
The last seat is Yang Xuan, the imperial history of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Procuratorate, he has not been very valued since he was put into Xu Youzhen's door, but seeing that Xu Youzhen today followed the example of Wang Yun in the late Han Dynasty to hold this family banquet and discuss how to deal with Shi Cao and the two, Yang Xuan also hopes to be like Cao Cao at Wang Yun's family banquet, a word is amazing, even if it is not successful, he can become famous all over the world, thinking of being able to have the same start with a talented person like Cao Apu, Yang Xuan was faintly excited, and stood up at the right time.
The so-called reluctant child can't trap the wolf, and sure enough, Yang Xuan's words are shocking enough: "Lord Xu, Lord Li, Lord Xu's words for the country and the people, touching and heartfelt, so that I am very moved, and I wish to go to the court tomorrow morning to participate in Cao Jixiang's book, and my subordinates think that it is the best policy to divide and attack, and deal with Cao Jixiang first, and when he falls Shi Heng and a martial artist, there is nothing to worry about." ”
When Xu Youzhen heard this, he praised again and again: "Brother Yang Xian is really intelligent, this is a good point, a good one." ”
As soon as Brother Yang Xian called out this sentence, Yang Xuan was overjoyed, but the old people in the audience laughed secretly in their hearts: "Yang Xuan, a stupid bird, has been used and doesn't know yet, and wait for the future and Cao Jixiang to hate him, if you really turn your face and punish this Yang Xuan, with Xu Youzhen's temper and character, she will never go to great lengths to rescue such people, but everything is different, and the ending is difficult to say, the high-level game is right and wrong, it depends on his creation, whether it is a blessing or a curse or a curse can not be avoided, In short, it's good not to let yourself do such a dangerous job, and there is no need to take risks for a sentence or two of virtuous brothers, or Xu Youzhen's attention, most people take refuge in Xu Youzhen to find a backer for self-protection, and secondly, they are just helping to beat the water dogs, this kind of charging thing, they will never do it. ”
Yang Xuan didn't think so, he was still smug, Xu Youzhen and Li Xian had the highest official positions, and they praised Yang Xuan in a row: "It's really a good royal history, and you dare to speak." Yang Xuan listened to the praise and became more comfortable, and bowed continuously.
