Chapter 279 Ambition
Li Heng has been staying in the new tea shop of Dawazi for the past few days, and the plaque has finally been changed to Lan'er's name in the past few days, which can be regarded as a serious business.
Although there are not many teas sold every day, and even Liu Lan'er is still a problem to settle accounts, but fortunately, this tea shop is not for profit, so the pressure on Liu Lan'er is less.
Li Heng followed Ye Qing to the tea room on the second floor, and Ruyi immediately obediently made tea for the two of them next to him.
And Liu Lan'er downstairs has seen Yan Chengcheng before, so she is relatively familiar.
Looking at Yan Qingcheng, who was puffed up as soon as he entered the door, and there was no You'er by his side, Liu Lan'er guessed at once, obviously Miss Yan and Brother Ye had a quarrel on the road.
But fortunately, it was not the first time that Yan Qingcheng had lost his temper with Ye Qing, and after sulking for a while, he began to teach Liu Lan'er to calculate accounts, keep accounts, and so on.
Ye Qing on the second floor sent Ruyi down, and then motioned to Li Heng to make tea himself, before he said lightly: "Withdraw the people who stopped on the waterway from Yangzhou to Lin'an, you don't need to do it for the time being." ”
"Ah...... Yo....... Li Hengguang looked at Ye Qing, so after the overflowing tea burned his hand, he hurriedly retracted it and shook it back and forth, "Why?" Didn't do this? ”
Ye Qing looked at the desktop in a daze, and said with an empty look: "There is no way to do it for the time being, I have to exchange Zhao Shixiong's life for her brother's life in Allure." ”
"Yes...... But the emperor ...... there. ”
"It's a private matter, but I don't want Zhao Shixiong to appear in Lin'an, so as not to cause any trouble for us in the future." Ye Qing said as a matter of course.
Li Hengming nodded, he didn't care about Ye Qing's own proposition, it didn't matter if it was the emperor's intention or Ye Qing's intention.
Then he thought for a while and said, "I just received it, Fan Niande disappeared." ”
"How do you say we can let Lu Zujian and Tang Shuo have a conflict?" Ye Qing nodded, Fan Niande deserved to die, he was even more of a threat than Zhao Shixiong alive.
Generals who are good at using clear swords and guns are easy to beware, but literati who like to use a pen as a dark arrow are difficult to guard, so it is acceptable to let go of Zhao Shixiong and Ye Qing, and it is completely unacceptable to let go of Fan Niande and Ye Qing.
"Why?" Li Heng asked.
"Naturally, it will bring down Tang Sihui, so why do you have to ask?" Ye Qing glanced at Li Heng on the other side.
"I'm afraid I have to plan carefully, although Tang Shuo is a famous straw bale above the court, but after all, he has been immersed in officialdom for many years, and it is still a little difficult for him to take the initiative to provoke Lu Zujian's subordinate." Li Heng stroked his chin and sighed repeatedly.
"Yes, although Tang Shuo is a straw bag, his son is still much stronger than him, and Tang Hexi's instigation of Li Lifang can't be passed so easily. And....... Ye Qing sighed with a headache and continued: "At the beginning, Wang Huai promised me the position of the commander of the forbidden army, but later I divided the forbidden army in front of the emperor, which will make Wang Huai ....... ”
"Are you saying that Wang Huai will be hostile to you because of this? Will you be prepared for it in the future? Li Heng was stunned for a moment, and he could understand Ye Qing's current distress.
If Zhao Shixiong arrived in Lin'an alive and Yan Qingzhi was also brought back to Lin'an by Zhao Qi'er, it would be impossible for Wang Huai not to know these things.
Once Zhao Shixiong and Yan Qingzhi are safe and sound in Lin'an, Wang Huai will inevitably be suspicious of Ye Qing, and will think that Ye Qing has already stood on the same front with Tang Siwei, and then Ye Qing will naturally have to face the dilemma of being attacked by the enemy.
After Li Heng sorted out his thoughts, he wondered: "Then if we want to avoid facing the dilemma of being attacked on our backs, we should also let Tang Siwei and Wang Huai have a conflict, right?" ”
Ye Qing shook his head and said with a smile: "Wang Huai and Tang Siwei are old rivals, Wang Huai had the criminal department in his hand, Tang Siwei had the military department in his hand, and after fighting for so many years, when did you see when Wang Huai won Tang Sihui?" ”
"But now above the court, Wang Huai's power is rising, and Tang Siwei's power is weakening." Li Heng reminded Ye Qingdao.
But the situation in the court is not completely decided by Wang Huai and Tang Sihui, and even Zhao Gou and the current saint Zhao Yan can't decide.
All the changes in the court situation in the Great Song Dynasty were completely closely related to the Jin Kingdom in the north.
Zhao Gou has Zhao Gou's ideas and goals, Zhao Yan has his own ideas and goals, and Wang Huai and Tang Siwei are the same.
But now that the situation above the court has changed, Wang Huaiqiang and Tang Si have retreated, all because of the domestic disputes in the Jin Kingdom, and they have no time to take care of continuing to go south to conquer the Song Dynasty.
It made Zhao Yan want to renovate Huainan East Road and make it the first line of anti-gold.
It also made Zhao Gou want to hide the emperor again, and continued to interfere too much in the political affairs of the court after the failure of the Northern Expedition in Longxing.
It is not so much that Wang Huai and Tang Siwei are fighting in the court, but that Zhao Gou and Zhao Yan are balancing the interests and ideas between their father and son back and forth.
Today's saint Zhao Yan is filial, and it is obviously impossible to disobey Zhao Go's words.
And Zhao Gou has already been in the Zen position, and it is obviously impossible to be in charge of the court as he was back then.
So there must be a balance between the two.
Zhao Xiang wants to enjoy, wants the power and influence of the court. Zhao Yan wanted to curb the appearance of a powerful minister like Qin Hui in the Great Song Dynasty again.
Therefore, between the father and son, in exchange, Zhao Gou promised Zhao Yan to rectify Huainan East Road, and promised him to weaken Tang Sihui's forces, but he would never watch Wang Huai's main battle faction grow.
And Zhao Yan, the filial son, as an exchange condition for Zhao Gou, is naturally to let Zhao Gou continue to maintain his influence in the court, and the change of ownership of the Imperial City Division and the rise of Shi Hao's family are the exchange conditions given to the Emperor by the current saint.
"So what?" Li Heng was a little confused, his first reaction at this time was that Liu Lan'er should be sitting here talking to Ye Qing, with Liu Lan'er's talent, he could completely help Ye Qing sort out the intricate relationship between the court and the court.
"So Tang Shuo must be allowed to clash with the other party, Wei Guogong Shi Hao and his family, obviously unwilling, and now they don't have such strength, not to mention that behind him and Tang Siwei, they are both Emperor Taishang, how can the Emperor Taishang watch the infighting between the two ministers he likes?" Ye Qing didn't drink it with a sip of the teacup, and the hot tea had already turned into herbal tea, and after pouring it out, it was replaced with new tea again.
"So you hit the idea on Lu Zujian, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple? Tang Shuo has just been appointed as the secretary of Dali Temple, and the so-called new official has taken office with three fires, and friction between him and Lu Zujian is naturally indispensable. Right? Li Heng felt that his brain hurt a little, he felt that it was too complicated, and his brain was running out of ideas.
"It can also be said that more importantly, behind Lu Zujian is Zhao Xuan, the king of letters, Zhao Xuan did not ascend the throne, but obviously the relationship with the current saint seems to be good, so only he can fight with Tang Si, and at the same time, he can let us slow down, right?" Ye Qing nodded again and again and said.
"Also, otherwise, the matter of Li Lingniang on the other side will be enough for us to have a headache." Li Heng muttered to himself, and then suddenly put down the teacup and asked, "By the way, what did you talk about with that Li Lingniang that day?" ”
"The secret of heaven cannot be revealed, but since you have spoken of it, I just have to look for her." Ye Qing smiled mysteriously.
"Well, when it's time to tell me, you'll tell me. Then I'll ask Li Lingniang to come over ....... ”
"No need, I'll go over by myself." Ye Qing stood up and said.
Li Heng and Ye Qing were planning in the area of Dawazi, and when they returned to Tang Hexi in Tangfu, they rushed to Tang Siwei's study as soon as possible.
After Tang Siwei listened to Tang Hexi's words, he didn't say anything for a long time, and he was still flipping through the book "Mengxi Pen Talk" in his hand, until Tang Hexi was about to lose patience, and just when he wanted to speak, Tang Siwei said slowly: "Then did you promise him?" ”
"No, the grandson didn't promise him." Tang Hexi hurriedly said.
Tang Si frowned, put down the "Dream Creek Writings" in his hand, and then slowly got up and walked to the window to stand still, and after a long while, he said in a deep voice: "Promise him." But you tell him that after the person arrives in Lin'an, Dali Temple will not pursue it again, but if the Criminal Department investigates, we will not care, it depends on his Ye Qing's own ability and Yan Qingzhi's creation. ”
"This ...... But in this way, the grandson felt as if he had taken advantage of ....... ”
"It doesn't matter who takes advantage and who suffers, if you don't agree, it is estimated that Zhao Shixiong will die on the way to Lin'an in the next few days, even if he sees the wall of Lin'an City, he may not be able to come in alive! The Imperial City Division should not be underestimated. Tang Si retreated and sighed, in fact, he should have thought that the Imperial City Division had undergone earth-shaking changes in a very short period of time on a rainy night.
And these changes are not because he Ye Qing has the ability that ordinary people do not have, but because of the remnants of the Back Wei Army, which gave Ye Qing strong support.
However, he is not optimistic about Ye Qing, just like Wang Huai, Ye Qing is also an old man of the same age as him in his eyes, and he will not live long.
When Zhao Gou died, then when would Ye Qing disappear into this world and go to Zhao Gou to be buried.
Just like the consensus between an old courtier, everyone knows what Ye Qing's result will be.
At that time, Emperor Zhao Gou was able to single-handedly support Qin Hui to become the first minister of power in the Great Song Dynasty, and then personally watched the current saint send Qin Hui into the situation of a sinner through the ages and being reviled by eternity.
Naturally, Zhao Gou would no longer let Ye Qing become his own cronies who still existed in this world after his death.
Tang Hexi couldn't help laughing when he heard Tang Siwei's words, and then said with some dissatisfaction: "Grandfather, then in this way, isn't it that no matter Zhao Shixiong or Yan Qingzhi, even after returning to Lin'an, we, like Ye Qing, still have to find a way to keep the people we want to keep?" Isn't it a waste of work? ”
"Yes, that's it, this is a temptation and demonstration, Ye Qing wants us to see that he is already full-fledged and qualified to negotiate conditions with me, and he also intends to let us see how he can keep Yan Qingzhi in Lin'an City." Tang Siwei sighed again, and then sneered: "If I guessed correctly, killing Zhao Shixiong was not the intention of the Emperor Taishang, it was completely his Ye Qing's intention!" ”
"Huh? This...... Isn't this like a false proclamation? How dare he do it so blatantly? He is not afraid that grandfather, you will ...... in front of the emperor. Tang Hexi was taken aback, this Ye Qing is too bold, right? Sent by the Imperial City Division, he dared to use his power for personal gain like this!
Tang Siwei didn't wait for Tang Hexi to finish speaking, then shook his head silently, turned around and said with a smile: "For the time being, he is, you can go." ”()
