Chapter 105: Double Reed Meter

There is a saying that sluts are hypocritical, and if they don't go, they have to be whipped to move forward. This is the case with the ministers of the DPRK and China.

And Tang Wang and Chu Suiliang sang a double reed.

At first, King Tang wanted to reward Li Changsheng as the Prince of Wuzhu, but Chu Suiliang categorically refused, the reason is very simple, it is actually Wuzhu, it should be said to be the Prince of Qizhu.

In this way, the courtiers will definitely feel that this reward is too high, and it should not be so, and they will definitely launch a fierce rebuttal above the government and the opposition, whether it is King Xu's faction or King Yu's faction, they will not let Li Changsheng's status surpass them, even if it is equal, it is impossible.

The two of them have been operating in the DPRK and China for many years, and they have finally made some achievements, and finally established their own faction, but they don't want to share a piece of the bowl with a third party.

Therefore, the courtiers retorted, after raising objections. Then Li Muchen, the king of Tang, personally refuted their suggestion, and let them have nothing to say, after such a dispute, one or two, after debate between the two sides.

In the end, Chu Suiliang came out to mediate, which was taken from the golden mean. Set up Prince Wuzhu, so that the courtiers will not only no longer have strange voices, but will also feel that the Tang King has compromised, and they are happy in their hearts, thinking that they have made a profit, and this result is what the Tang King wants most.

If you say at the beginning, you will be canonized as the "Prince of Wuzhu". It will definitely arouse the opposition of many people, so why not say it higher?

In the end, the same result will lead to different reactions, and this is the "strategy".

Just as Chu Suiliang expected, the ministers really thought that King Tang had also surrendered, but instead of refuting, they were quite happy.

Li Muchen and Chu Suiliang, the old foxes, played the people of King Xu and King Yu.

At the court meeting, Li Changsheng can be regarded as having a long insight, he has heard people talk about it, and knows that his father was a clever and eloquent person when he was young.

From this point of view, his sophistry has not diminished back then, and he is still so eloquent, skillfully borrowing small things, moving with affection, knowing reason, and his ability to talk rhetoric is really shocking.

After retreating from the court, Li Changsheng wanted to attack to visit his mother, but as a result, he was stopped by King Xu as soon as he came out of the Daming Palace.

"Look at Brother Wang in a hurry, but you want to enter the harem to visit the queen?"

King Xu walked with a smile, not as serious and dignified as usual.

Li Changsheng didn't hide it, and there was nothing to hide at this time, he said: "It turned out to be Brother Xu, Brother Wang hasn't been in the palace to visit for half a month, and he rushed into the palace, that is, he went back to the palace after visiting his mother, can Brother Xu have anything else?" ”

King Xu said with a smile: "There is nothing else important, Brother Wang has made miraculous achievements and was named the 'Prince of Wuzhu' by His Majesty, as your royal brother, I am really happy for you." ”

Li Changsheng is not stupid, he knows that they are not heartfelt words, but they are just hypocritical politeness between people.

"Brother Wang has won the award, but he is only the champion of the great martial arts test, and I really dare not compare it with your merits." Li Changsheng said humbly.

"Alas, this is modesty, your performance in the Great Martial Arts Test, as a brother, I have witnessed it with my own eyes, between me and other brothers, even if everyone is combined, it is not your opponent."

King Xu didn't lie when he said this, these princes and grandsons have some skills, but if they talk about real skills, they are really inferior to one percent of Li Changsheng.

"Brother Wang praised it!!"

Li Changsheng waved his hand again and again, and the word modesty still had to be in his heart.

"Is it a false praise, this is the true word of my brother, and it will not be adulterated."

If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, Li Changsheng is not stupid, King Xu greeted him with a smile, and he didn't hesitate to be stingy with his praise, how could Li Changsheng not know that he had to ask for it?

"Brother Xu. You and I are both happy people, if you have anything to say, you can say it directly, between the brothers, you and I are the most familiar with each other, why not open the skylight and say bright words, I don't like to go around, headache tight. ”

"Haha!! Brother Wang is really a cheerful person, since this is the case, he is also blunt. ”

Li Changsheng made a gesture of "please" and motioned for him to come.

King Xu was just about to speak, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed again, a little embarrassed, a dignified "Prince of Qizhu" looks like this, and the ministers are really rare.

"If Brother Wang finds it difficult to speak, then we will talk about it another day, and the queen mother is still waiting for me."

After that, Li Changsheng was about to leave, King Xu hesitated for a moment, then immediately chased after him, and said: "Brother Wei received the news, King Yu will come back soon." ”

"Oh? So soon, I remember that it was only less than two months since Brother Yu left Chang'an, how could it be so fast? ”

Li Changsheng stopped, slightly surprised, in ancient times, it was not as good as now, between long journeys, it was as little as two or three months. It is also possible for more than half a year, or even several years, who made the Tang Empire vast.

Among them, in history, there have been many degraded officials on the way to the degraded land, which is not uncommon and common.

King Yu went to Wuzhong on this trip, and King Xu already knew what the result was? Merely. Arrived too quickly, he didn't think of a countermeasure, and the sworn enemy had returned.

"Changsheng, you must help me this time."

King Xu did not call him 'Brother Wang', but bluntly said his name, which sounded much more cordial.

"Help? What does Brother Wang mean by this? Li Changsheng asked.

"Don't you know, there has been a festival between Brother Wang and King Yu. And the officials under the jurisdiction of Wu Zhong are all promoted by this king, and once the king of Yu returns to Chang'an, he will inevitably make a big fuss, so I am worried about ......"

"I'm worried that Brother Yu will use this matter to impeach you?" Li Changsheng finished talking about the worries in his heart for him.

Seeing that Li Changsheng understood the matter, King Xu also showed a smile and said, "Yes, this king is worried about this matter." You know that, too. Over the years, I and King Yu are incompatible, and this time I will inevitably spill dirty water out, and I am afraid that this king will not be able to stay alone. ”

The matter of Wuzhong was provoked by Li Changsheng, and this time King Yu went to Wuzhong to investigate the matter of the disaster relief silver two that year.

King Xu, as the presiding officer of disaster relief that year, coveted the disaster relief silver. It can be described as a heinous crime, and Li Changsheng has also heard of this matter.

Li Changsheng can't fully believe it, and he won't completely deny it, the disaster in Wuzhong that year affected the whole country and the funds allocated by the imperial court. Whoever embezzles and fills his own pockets can be regarded as a sinner through the ages.

But King Xu did just that, he embezzled the disaster relief money of the imperial court, slaughtered the local people, and committed many crimes, which can be described as unspeakable.

Unexpectedly. This beast with a human face and a beast's heart actually has the face to say such things.

Of course, before he knew the truth, Li Changsheng would not jump to conclusions. Li Changsheng asked: "Those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid, if Brother Xu Wang has not done anything to be sorry for the people, how can he care about Brother Yu's impeachment?" ”

"Naturally, this king is doing the right thing. Sit upright, but you don't know that if the people in the court want to impeach a person, even if that person is as white as jade and incorruptible, they can also reverse black and white and muddy a pool of clear water. ”

I don't add to that. As a politician, if you want to impeach and persecute a person, you don't need evidence, and a casual "trumped-up" crime can be enough to kill a person.

However, King Xu's sentence "do right, sit upright" is really flattering.

Over the years, he has also heard a little about the dirty transactions made by King Xu, and he is definitely not a good official, and Li Changsheng has just seen through it and not said it thoroughly.

"Brother Wang means...... King Yu wants to take the opportunity to harm you? ”

"Not wanted, but definitely!!" King Xu said firmly, "All these years. My battle with King Yu, who doesn't know about the government and the opposition? If this king falls, of course, he will be the first to benefit, and it will not be a matter of a day or two for him to bring me down, so how can he let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? ”

"I've heard about it. Brother Yu Wang can really do this kind of thing. Li Changsheng said.

"So, Brother Wang hopes that you will be able to stand on my side at that time, after all, you are Your Majesty's biological flesh and blood, your words, Your Majesty will definitely think about it."

Li Changsheng pondered for a moment, did not rush to agree to King Xu, and did not refuse. After thinking about it, he said: "It's not difficult to speak in front of my father, but I have a prerequisite. ”

"What prerequisites?" King Xu asked, looking a little cramped.

"Brother Xu, don't be nervous, I'm not so greedy, I want to get any benefits from you. There is only one sentence to say. Li Changsheng said with a smile.

"What?"

"In the land of Wuzhong, can Brother Xu really prove his innocence? If Brother Yu really wishes you, then he will naturally not sit idly by as a younger brother; But if Brother Wang really did something sorry for the people, then you deserved it. ”

Li Changsheng said very clearly, only if King Xu dares to admit that he is not guilty, then he dares to intercede for him, if he really commits an unforgivable crime, he will be to blame for whatever the result is.

King Xu hesitated a little, when people are lying, they always unconsciously have a look or small movements, he is no exception, Rao is so, King Xu still straightened his waist and said: "I dare to guarantee that the disaster in Wuzhong back then, this king is absolutely innocent, and any dirty water is a false accusation against this king." ”

"Okay, King Xu dares to say, then I dare to intercede for you, but if you dare to lie to me? Father will not descend to you. I will surely ask you for the sins of the dead people. ”

Li Changsheng responded, and King Xu hurriedly thanked him.

Li Changsheng didn't say anything more, and then turned around and went to the harem.

After he left, King Xu also frowned, and said in his heart: "Li Changsheng, today this king whispers to you, wait for the next day." I will make you kneel before me and beg me. ”

"And King Yu, wait and see, it's not certain who will kill the deer."
