Chapter 540: Changing Docks (Part II)
When the fish father-in-law heard this, he said:
"Headache. The time when the surname Long was angry at you before, you came out and bled because of a headache? ”
Lan Ziyi nodded and said:
"Exactly, that time Grandpa Long was angry at me, my headache was about to explode, and Grandpa Long said something inexplicable at that time."
Father-in-law Yu asked:
"What did he say?"
Lan Ziyi said:
"He said, 'So you don't know how to use your own strength.'"
Hearing this, Father-in-law Yu patted his thigh, and he said:
"The surname Long is definitely good at witchcraft, so he said this to him, and he didn't have to run."
It's just that after the excitement, Grandpa Yu fell silent again, and after thinking for a long time, he said:
"Ziyi, I still think that what you think of these things is too illusory, out of bounds, without evidence, the accusations you said about the surname Long before are rebellion, and after you have evidence, you will be beaten as a rebellion."
Lan Ziyi smiled when he heard this:
"Didn't my father-in-law say that you are not afraid of the surname Long?"
Hearing this, Father-in-law Yu sneered:
"Boy, dare to provoke me to believe me or not? I'm not afraid of the surname Long, but if your conjecture comes true, it will be equivalent to the emperor pinching the surname Long's hands, so we can't be careless. ”
Lan Ziyi nodded when he heard this:
"This Ziyi naturally understands."
Then Father-in-law Yu took another sip of tea, and when he saw that the tea bowl was at the bottom, he said to Yueshanma:
"Yue'er, go get a cigarette pouch for your father."
Yueshan heard the words and quietly went to the back room to go to the cigarette pouch to light it for the fish father. Although Yue'er was frightened by Father-in-law Yu, his steps when he walked were still graceful, and the ketones under the tulle were plump and fascinating, and because of the fright, the current Yue'er actually walked with a little pitiful and touching appearance. Lan Ziyi watched Yueshan all the way, his eyes were all straight.
Father-in-law Yu smiled sideways and watched the dejected Lan Ziyi make a fool of himself, silently not to disturb, until after the cigarette pouch was lit for him in the mountains of the moon, Father-in-law Yu said leisurely:
"Those red-haired and yellow-haired barbarians from overseas can always toss out some new things, let's just say this tobacco, the first time I smoke it, I feel comfortable."
As he spoke, Father-in-law Yu took a deep puff of cigarette along the cigarette holder, swallowing clouds and exhaling fog.
Lan Ziyi was choked by the smoke spit out by Father-in-law Yu, coughed, waved his hand to disperse the smoke, and said:
"I can't stand the smell."
Father-in-law Yu leaned back in the chair and took a few deep breaths of smoke and relaxed a lot, he glanced at Lan Ziyi and said:
"The matter surnamed Long is not clear, and I will talk about it when I have a chance in the future. You just told me that you want to change someone, so you can tell me how to talk to that person. “
Lan Ziyi said:
"To be his right-hand man, of course. I have seen the prince, benevolent and faithful, good at advice, gentle and frugal, filial piety and both. King De's rogue virtue, the prince actually took the initiative to comfort King De's life after seeing me, and benevolence is so true to keep Cheng Mingjun. “
Hearing this, Father-in-law Yu laughed, and he looked at Lan Ziyi like a fool and said:
"I thought you would be able to sober up when you saw Bliss, but you turned out to be sour and rotten. What happened to the prince's benevolence, and what if the prince could accept advice? Is it your turn to go? I've been by the emperor's side for decades, and two of the three divisions of the inner court are in my hands, and I can't squeeze around the prince with this identity, you want to be the prince's right-hand man with a mouth? You are a yellow-haired child who has not dried up, but you don't have hair on your mouth and can't do things well, so you can talk about it here.
Ziyi, let me tell you, don't dream, it's better for you to make peace with King De than for you to dream empty here. “
Lan Ziyi smiled when he heard this, and said:
"Father-in-law, it takes imagination to look at the horizon, and my father-in-law is so conservative in his thinking, it will be difficult to get out of the way in the future."
Hearing this, Father-in-law Yu knocked down his pipe, knocking out a pile of cigarette ash, and he said to Lan Ziyi with a cruel smile:
"You are a scholar, the old man is illiterate, you have some thoughts in your head, the old man doesn't have to think, you come to tell the old man about your imagination, and it also opens the old man's eyes."
Lan Ziyi got up wordlessly and came to the seat of Father-in-law Yu, he first waved at Father-in-law Yu, and then said:
"Father-in-law, I won't talk about how to talk to the crown prince first, just what will happen when King De ascends the throne. King De has Duke Long, and King De has a great relationship with Duke Long, according to the rules of our dynasty to ascend the throne, the new emperor takes office, the inner court left by the first emperor will inevitably change blood, once King De ascends the throne, the three divisions of the inner court will inevitably fall into the hands of Duke Long, where will you go then? And the father-in-law not only has nowhere to go, but also kills himself, father-in-law, you count the previous deputy in charge of the Taicheng Guard, count the number of years in charge of the internal guard, how many ministers in the court and the central government disappeared in the temple of redress? If you really want King De to ascend the throne and buy people's hearts, aren't you the first to be thrown as a target, father-in-law? ”
Father-in-law Yu listened to Lan Ziyi's words, his face became gloomy little by little, and after Lan Ziyi finished speaking, Father-in-law Yu convulsed his face and said to Lan Ziyi:
"Ziyi doesn't need to scare me, if King De ascends the throne, your Lan family will be the first to win."
Hearing this, Lan Ziyi spread his hands and said:
"I know this, as far as my current relationship with King De is concerned, as long as King De ascends the throne, my Lan family will be raided. Because of this, my father-in-law and I must join the crown prince. ”
Fair Fish:
"King De is still raised in the inner court, and he doesn't dislike our group of eunuchs, but the prince has grown up with scholars since he was a child, and he despises me in his heart for a long time, so I won't go to the prince to find death."
Lan Ziyi said:
"Although King De was raised by the inner court, it was King De who raised him, and there is no place for your father-in-law; The prince is surrounded by scholars, but he was excluded by the emperor, and the storage position is not guaranteed, as long as the father-in-law helps the prince to ascend the throne, it is a great achievement, and there is no one in the palace, and the inner court is indispensable, as long as the father-in-law keeps the prince on the throne, the remaining vacant seats in the palace will be filled by the father-in-law. That's right with the Prince. ”
Fair Fish:
"Okay, even if it's right with the prince, then you tell me that the prince is surrounded by Zhang Mingyue's people like iron buckets, needles can't be inserted, water can't be splashed, how can I and you and the two of you follow?"
Lan Ziyi smiled:
"It's simple, just flip Zhang Mingyue."
Hearing this, Father-in-law Yu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed dumbly, he said:
"Ziyi, you just read too many books and have a problem with your head. If Zhang Mingyue had been so aggressive, he would have fallen a hundred times a hundred times. I have been in the capital for so many years, and I have only seen Zhang Mingyue rise all the way, and countless people above him have never been seen, and no one has ever dared to oppose him.
Ziyi, don't think that Zhang Mingyue is a stupid official just because he is targeting you, Zhang Mingyue is definitely the number one capable minister since the founding of the country. Where did your father's expedition to Saibei come from? Where does the grain come from? It was all Zhang Mingyue squeezed out from between his teeth.
Ziyi, stop thinking nonsense. “
Lan Ziyi sat back on the chair at this time and took a sip of tea, he said:
"Father-in-law, we have no other way out at this point, we must fight against Zhang Mingyue and squeeze out a position next to the prince in order to save our lives."
Hearing this, Father-in-law Yu let out a long sigh, and then took a few more puffs of his cigarette pouch. After a while, Father Yu said:
"Then how are you going to fight Zhang Mingyue?"
Lan Ziyi said:
"There are ready-made people in the DPRK who can be used."
Fair Fish:
"Who?"
Lan Ziyi said:
"Li Chenghai!"
Yu Gongcheng was drinking tea, and when he heard the words, he squirted out the tea, he pointed to Lan Ziyi and said:
"What kind of eyes do you look at people? Li Chenghai's old and immortal appearance, what ability does he have to fight Zhang Mingyue? Look at the way he looks every time he is in the court, he is either asleep or about to sleep, do you also use this kind of mediocre and old thing? Wake up, stop dreaming. ”
After Father-in-law Yu squirted out the water, Yueshanma hurriedly stepped forward to wipe it for him, Lan Ziyi also took out a handkerchief, Father-in-law Yu put down the teacup and said while Lan Ziyi's handkerchief wiped his mouth, Yueshanjian was pushed aside by him, Yue'er failed to compete for favor, and glared at Lan Ziyi fiercely for this.
Lan Ziyi smiled at Yueshan, and then said to Father-in-law Yu:
"Father-in-law, then Li Chenghai is clearly in Tao Hui, let's cross the river and come back here, Li Chenghai above the court seized the opportunity to instigate his subordinates to come out and bite Zhang Mingyue, but he didn't succeed, father-in-law, have you forgotten."
When Father-in-law Yu heard Lan Ziyi's words, he touched his chin and thought about it carefully, and then said:
"When you say that, it seems to have a little bit of meaning at the time."
