Chapter 1651: The Present and the Future
Harem.
"The dust has finally settled."
Yang took a long breath, and she was also busy enough during this period, because she was the link between the inner court and the outer court, and many of Wu Meiniang's instructions were conveyed by her.
Wu Meiniang took a sip of hot tea, put down the teacup, and said lightly: "Mother, this matter is not settled, isn't the eldest grandson Wuji still alive." ”
Yang was stunned for a moment and said, "But Your Majesty doesn't seem to have the intention of killing the eldest grandson Wuji." ”
Wu Meiniang smiled: "Didn't I tell my mother before, of course Your Majesty can't kill the eldest grandson Wuji." ”
Yang suddenly remembered, and hurriedly said: "By the way, you said that you have a way, but I don't know what the way?" ”
Wu Meiniang narrowed her eyes and said, "Shi can be killed, but not humiliated." ”
Yang muttered: "Can a soldier be killed, but not humiliated? ”
Wu Meiniang nodded, and said confidently: "Eldest grandson Wuji, Chu Suiliang and others, they are still very proud in their bones, and they are not young and can't live for a few years, so they will never choose to endure humiliation and steal their lives for the sake of these remaining years." If we send someone to humiliate them, they will kill themselves, and no one will have to do it. ”
The implication is to force these elders to death, Wu Meiniang knows that Li Zhi will not order to kill his uncle, this has a great impact on the emperor's reputation, and if the emperor does not make this order, he will not be able to kill, so he can only force them to death. It can be seen that this is the most poisonous woman's heart, the ancients often said that a soldier can be killed but not humiliated, but Wu Meiniang is a woman, she doesn't care what you can kill or not humiliate, in her political concept, that is, those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me die, and use all means to achieve their goals.
But Yang was a little skeptical when he heard this, could this really work? But seeing that Wu Meiniang was confident, she believed it. Suddenly remembered something, and said: "Oh yes, daughter, you are really right, I heard Yuan Gongyu say that Xu Jingzong also gave him a severe reprimand because of Xiao Jun's incident, saying that it was because he instigated Xu Jingzong to add Xiao Jun to the list, which made His Majesty very unhappy, and also pardoned Zhao Zhiman and others. ”
Wu Mei Niangdai frowned and said, "Zhao Zhiman's incident is not because of Xiao Jun, but because Han Yi went to His Majesty to intercede that day. ”
Yang was surprised: "Really? ”
Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "Not only that, Your Majesty didn't even discuss this matter with me, so he asked Zhongshu Province to draft a holy decree. ”
Yang said: "I didn't expect Han Yi to have such a high status in His Majesty's heart. ”
"I've known this for a long time."
Wu Meiniang sighed lightly and said: "It's just that Han Yi's intention is to do this, my daughter has never figured it out." ”
Yang said: "That's right! Han Yi has saved so many people, what's the use? It doesn't help the eldest grandson Wuji. ”
Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "If I hadn't known in advance that Han Yi had secretly met with the eldest grandson Wuji, I'm afraid I wouldn't have taken it seriously." ”
Yang frowned and said, "Did we really misunderstand Han Yi?" ”
Wu Meiniang shook her head and said, "I thought so at first, but after I thought about it carefully, I felt that this matter was by no means so simple. I know Han Yi's methods too well, everything he does seems to be insignificant, a small thing, not enough to attract attention, but there is a far-reaching meaning behind it, and it has a close relationship with his next move, he also helped me to become this queen in the first place, so the less impact this matter has, the more we should pay attention to it. ”
Along the way, Han Yi has been by her side, and once to the point of talking about everything, and she has a good understanding in many aspects, which is why Wu Meiniang likes it very much, because many of the two have similar ideas, full of tacit understanding, and both parties know each other very well.
Yang Shi pondered: "He can keep those people, I have also heard, they are all some young officials, similar to his age, but at his age, he can be a scholar and hold real power, and he Han Yi is alone, those people are just some small roles, and they can't become the climate." ”
"Similar age?"
Wu Meiniang suddenly frowned, and kept repeating these four words in her mouth.
Yang was curious: "What? ”
"Ahh Wu Meiniang's eyes suddenly widened, and she said, "I understand, I finally understand." ”
Yang looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Wu Meiniang said: "We have always focused on Han Yi and the eldest grandson Wuji, so we have not been able to see through, in fact, their purpose is not to keep the eldest grandson Wuji at all, but to give up the eldest grandson Wuji." ”
Yang was surprised: "Give up the eldest grandson Wuji? ”
Wu Meiniang nodded and said: "There is an irreparable gap between the eldest grandson Wuji and His Majesty, if we fight with the eldest grandson Wuji as the center, Your Majesty must be biased towards us, and Your Majesty has no choice." But Han Yi's status in His Majesty's heart is very high, and there is no barrier between the monarch and the minister, so if Han Yi is the center, His Majesty will not easily favor either side.
And Han Yi's biggest advantage is that he is still very young, so he retains some young and talented officials, and now these officials are really not to be worried, but ten years later, are these officials still just a small role? It's really hard to say, they will grow up with His Majesty, and what's even more terrifying is that ten years later, Han Yidu is not yet confused, it is the peak of a man, and Xu Jingzong and they may not be able to survive ten years later. It's like this, it must be like this, this conspiracy is too much in line with the characters of the two of them. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji is scheming, but Han Yi is on the wrong side, and this plan includes both elements.
Thinking of this, some beads of sweat oozed slightly from her forehead, which was extremely scary when she thought about it, and the more she thought about it, the more terrifying it became.
Han Yi is too young, now he is only in his twenties, Xu Jingzong is an old man, and he is consumed to death.
Yang Shi only felt that the cold wind was blowing behind her, and she might not be able to get to that time for ten years, so she hurriedly asked, "What about the ---?" ”
Wu Meiniang narrowed her eyes and said: "The only way is not to give him a chance to delay until ten years later, now that his power has not yet taken shape, his plan will take a long time, he must be eliminated before he is full-fledged, otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
Now that she is the strongest, let alone the harem, even in the outer court, except for Li Zhi, no one is her opponent, she is living in the present, and at this moment, although Han Yi's power is weak, but Han Yi is living in the future, at the moment, he is still too young, this is a bottleneck, officialdom is still senior, so the key to winning for both sides is actually time, the battle between the present and the future. Therefore, in Wu Meiniang's view, if you don't eradicate Han Yi now, it will only become more and more difficult in the future, the eldest grandson Wuji has been the prime minister for 30 years, and once the power leaned towards the government and the opposition, Han Yi is completely possible to surpass the eldest grandson Wuji, it is conceivable.
Yang said: "But now that Han Yi is deeply favored by His Majesty, and he is extremely capable, and he does not participate in any battles, he is busy with official business all day long, if you want to move him, I am afraid it will be very difficult." ”
Wu Meiniang nodded, her face was sad, she knew Han Yi too well, although Han Yi did some things that seemed a little unbelievable, but in fact, it was step by step, it just looked scary, but after thinking about it carefully, the timing of Han Yi's choice was very perfect, and she didn't have a clue for a while when this thought came and went.
Yang said: "Otherwise, let's use the matter of Cao Yun to create a little difficulty for Han Yi." ”
"No."
Wu Meiniang said: "Your Majesty attaches great importance to Cao Yun, and this is also related to the people of the world, the country's society, if you don't get it right, it will cause big trouble, if you let Your Majesty and the people know that we are doing ghosts in it, it will only lift a stone to shoot yourself in the foot, and don't forget, many people have wanted to hinder Han Yi's policy, but not only did not succeed, but caused themselves trouble, in this regard, none of us is his opponent." This matter has to be considered in the long run, and I am not in a hurry anyway, so I have to think about it carefully. In addition, during this period, we must not startle the snake, we must maintain a close relationship with Han Yi, so that our chances of winning will be higher. ”
......
......
Yang House.
"Alas... The matter is finally over. ”
With the support of Yang Sine, Mrs. Yang came to the front hall slowly.
Yang Sine said: "This is all the credit of my mother, my mother has always been devout to the Buddha, and the Buddha will naturally bless our Yang family." ”
Old Madam Yang smiled and said: "Don't say these nice words, although the old man is old, but he is not confused, our Yang family can successfully pass this hurdle, it all depends on our family's hidden son-in-law, if it wasn't for listening to his advice at the beginning, I think, our Yang family may not be able to get out of the way." ”
Yang Sinen said angrily: "What son-in-law, the child didn't recognize him." ”
Mrs. Yang said with a smile: "Maybe it's not uncommon for people to be rare. ”
Yang Sine was embarrassed and silent.
Old Madam Yang said again: "By the way, Feixue went there again, right?" ”
Yang Sine hummed embarrassedly.
Old Madam Yang sighed and said: "The matter has come to this, don't worry too much about it in your heart, as long as they are happy and still help our Yang family, what else do you want, if you marry Feixue to the eldest grandson's family and the Gao family, I'm afraid we won't be able to sit here and talk today." ”
Yang Sina nodded and said, "Mother is right, the child remembers." ”
.......
Han Yi is such a simple baby, where is there so much calculation by Wu Meiniang, during this busy period, she immediately organized a family gathering, and work is for life, this concept has always been very clear.
Now that winter has arrived, the wonders of the hot spring manor can be even more reflected, of course, you have to experience it.
However, before they could experience the benefits of hot springs, they first experienced the benefits of fireplaces.
In the evening, the three beauties sat on the sofa casually, all curiously looking at the fireplace next to them.
"It's really warm in this stove, and it's strange that this smoke is going up there." Yang Feixue stared at the fireplace with big curious eyes.
Yuan Peony nodded slightly, and said thoughtfully: "What if---! ”
Xiao Wuyi immediately said: "If you use it for trading, it will definitely be very profitable, right?" A trader is a trader. ”
A touch of embarrassment flashed on Yuan Peony's face, and he immediately said, "Your husband is also a trader." ”
Xiao Wuyi snorted: "But your husband is different from you, you only have money in your eyes." ”
At this moment, I suddenly heard someone outside: "Three beauties, what are you talking about?" ”
I saw Han Yi walk in with a fruit bowl and put it on the table, "It's cold to me, it's cold to death." Then he sat next to Yuan Peony and held Yuan Peony in his arms.
Yuan Peony didn't react at all, and was very depressed, there are three people sitting here, why did you choose me, I was quite uncomfortable, twisted my body, and said in a low voice: "What are you doing?" ”
Han Yi said with a simple face: "What are you doing?" ”
Yuan Peony said: "Why are you sitting here? ”
Han Yi said: "There are two sitting over there, and one sitting here, is it wrong for me to sit here?" ”
Xiao Wuyi pursed his lips and glanced at Han Yi, as if he was still encouraging Han Yi.
Han Yi blinked in understanding.
Yang Feixue saw it in her eyes and hid aside and snickered.
Of course, Yuan Peony also saw it, this anger is not in one place, fortunately, she is calmer, she knows that the more she struggles, the more embarrassing the atmosphere becomes, she can only let Han Yi hold her, her face is slightly flushed, fortunately, there is a fireplace fire, so she can't see it clearly.
Han Yi asked again, "What are you talking about?" ”
Yang Feixue immediately said, "We're talking about this fireplace." ”
Han Yi said, "Warm up." ”
Yang Feixue snorted.
Han Yi said again: "But compared to this fireplace, the indoor hot spring is more comfortable, otherwise, let's take a bubble together as a family later." ”
Yang Feixue immediately chirped: "Don't think about it." ”
Xiao Wuyi's eyes rolled and said, "I discussed with Feixue, the two of us will go to soak later, if you want to soak, go with Sister Peony." ”
Han Yi smiled: "It's okay! Secretly handed Xiao Wuyi two grateful glances.
Xiao Wuyi responded with two sly glances.
Yuan Peony was very unhappy and said: "I didn't agree to this. ”
It's up to you. Han Yi laughed a few times, but Quan Dang didn't hear it, and greeted: "Eat fruit, eat fruit." ”
Yang Feixue said while eating: "Oh, by the way, there are three female teachers in our college who were forced to resign and leave Chang'an. ”
Yuan Peony was stunned and said, "Is it because I have to plot a rebellion recently?" ”
Yang Feixue nodded very depressedly and looked at Han Yi again.
This purge has a very large impact, involving a lot of nobles, and most of the female teachers in Zhaoyi Academy are from aristocratic families, so it is reasonable to be implicated.
Han Yi shrugged his shoulders and handed away two apologetic glances.
Yang Feixue said again: "I really can't figure it out, these people are obviously innocent, why are they implicated, it's so unfair." ”
Xiao Wuyi said suddenly: "I know this, as the saying goes, don't do to others what you don't want to do to yourself." Didn't the eldest grandson and old thief do the same back then, and people would naturally follow his example and cut down the grass and eradicate the roots. ”
Han Yi looked at Yuan Peony and asked, "Peony, what do you think?" ”
Yuan Peony didn't know what he meant, and rolled his eyes slightly.
Han Yi said with a smile: "Even Peony can't refute it, it can be seen that what Wuyi said is completely correct." ”
Xiao Wuyi's eyes rolled and said, "Husband, you are provoking the relationship between me and Sister Peony!" Having said that, his eyes were full of pride.
Han Yi said angrily: "Do you still need me to provoke the relationship between you?" ”
