"Nani?"
Li Qi's eyes widened, his mouth opened, and his expression was very exaggerated, "Mother-in-law, you-why did you say that?" β
Madame Bai said: "It's very simple, because this qiΔ is all manipulated by Qin Hui behind the scenes. β
Li Qi's eyes slid slightly, but he said curiously: "This is impossible, Qin Hui didn't say a word, and besides, this matter has always revolved around the Third Division, the Household Department, and the Ordnance Supervisor, and it has nothing to do with Qin Hui." β
"It doesn't matter if he doesn't speak, as a powerful minister, he doesn't need to open his mouth for many things, naturally someone will say it for him, as long as the result has something to do with him"
"The result?"
Li Qi scratched his head and said, "The result has something to do with him, but that's entirely my own reason-are you saying that Qin Hui had long expected me to say this?" β
Madame Bai snorted and said: "Under the system of our dynasty, if the prime minister wants to control the finances, it is actually very difficult, but if he completely loses the financial power, then many things will be constrained, and it is not a good thing for the prime minister, so every prime minister will try to seize part of the financial power from the three divisions or the household department, even Wang Anshi, Sima Guang and other virtuous ministers are no exception, as for Cai Taishi and Wang Huang, you should be very clear, their way to control the finances is to serve the bureau, At the beginning, the emergence of the Ying Feng Bureau, in a certain way, was equivalent to a share of the financial power from the three divisions. β
Li Qi said: "I know this, but if Qin Hui wants to do the Ying Feng Bureau, it is tantamount to asking for himself." β
"Not bad!" Madame Bai nodded and said: "As a minister under the emperor today, if you still want to use the bureau to seize financial power, it is absolutely not feasible, and the three divisions have been turned into a whole and three envoys have been set up, which shows the emperor's intentions, so the road of the three divisions will not work." However, the independence of the ordnance superintendent and the sale of weapons were huge. The money that the military superintendent has more and more money has become the main financial income of the state, even the three divisions dare not despise it, this is also the only way for Qin Hui to seize financial power.
It's just that he is the prime minister, but it is inconvenient for him to directly intervene in any matter involving financial power, so he came up with this method, digging a pit for you to jump into, and the three divisions of the household department Shangshu Jian yΓ¬ took back the financial power of the ordnance supervisor, which was just a grandiose excuse. I have to say that his excuse is very good, and the timing is just right, now that the treasury is empty, the emergence of the new law, in a certain way, will reduce a lot of income of the imperial court, and the three divisions are helpless, but you ordnance supervisors have made a lot of money. It seems that there is a tendency to overhead the three divisions, which is not a good thing for the country's exhibition, so it is reasonable for the three divisions to withdraw the financial power of the ordnance superintendent. β
Li Qi said: "But Qin Hui knows that I won't hand it over lightly." β
Madame Bai smiled: "But you can't help but pay." So Qin Hui expected that you would definitely go to the Commerce Bureau in a part, because Qi Niang is your wife, so that you can avoid the loss of most of your financial power, however. The reason you are looking for must be the new law, and the emperor has already handed over the new law to Qin Hui and the Bureau of Commerce to manage together. Then Qin Hui also has part of the financial power, this qiΔ is very carefully calculated, there are no flaws, this person's city government and strategy are by no means under the Taishi and Wang Hao. β
Sweat! You know it so well at home, how can I still mess up, fortunately I hid it from you at the beginning. Li Qi muttered to himself, suddenly patted the arm of the chair, got up and said: "How can this be reasonable, how can this be reasonable, I fucking it was pulled up by one hand, but it has only been a few days, and it has begun to hit my attention, and Lao Tzu will now dismantle the ungrateful man into eight pieces." β
With that, he strode outside.
"Stop."
"Mother-in-law, don't stop me, whoever wants to take money from me will be equivalent to taking my life, and I won't finish this matter with him."
Madam Bai smiled slightly, and said slowly: "You forget to come back later, you want to take revenge, and you don't care about it for a while, Qin Hui won't leave anyway." Have a seat. β
Nemesis! Li Qi sighed secretly, so he had to sit back, and said with a grateful face: "I didn't expect Qin Hui to be this kind of person, it's really chilling to me, mother-in-law, fortunately with you, otherwise I would have been hiding it in the dark, they all say that there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, this is really true, oh, mother-in-law, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean you, you look at it now as much as twenty-eight, sincerely, I'm talking about the old man." β
Although this is true, if Bai Shizhong hears it, he will probably be angry to death.
Madame Bai ignored Li Qi's sycophants and said, "Actually, this little bit of wealth and power is nothing to Qin Hui's ambitions, he did this mainly to test you." β
Depend on! Give a way to live, no. Richie pursed his lips and said, "Is this another bridge in the water?" β
Madame Bai was stunned for a moment, sneered, and said, "You can also say the same." β
Li Qi said: "Then I don't know what Qin Hui wants to test me?" β
Madame Bai said, "Don't you know? β
Li Qi shook his head and said, "I don't know." β
Madame Bai said: "Do you remember that once upon a time, I told you that you who have no power are the safest. β
"Uh, I don't remember very clearly."
"Really?"
"It's like- that's the case."
Madame Bai said: "Although you held a lot of power at that time, if you show your power again, then you will make all the ministers in the court fearful, including the Taishi, Taiwei, the prince, and even the emperor who have always supported you, which is not good for you, and with the help of the Taishi, you don't need to show your own power, although you seem to have an unstable foundation at that time, alone, but you have become the most unique force." β
Li Qi patted his ass and said: "The mother-in-law's golden and jade good words, the son-in-law has always kept it in mind, and until now, I dare not forget it." β
Madame Bai smiled and said, "Do you remember everything?" β
Li Qi's face stiffened suddenly, and he nodded awkwardly.
Madame Bai continued: "In the past, it was a superior policy for you to do that, but now it is different, the Taishi, the Taiwei, including our Bai family, have all withdrawn from the court, and you are a privy envoy, if you don't have your own power, you are still alone. That's dangerous, but you don't seem to mean anything about it, and you seem to be trying to avoid it. β
Li Qi frowned and sighed: "Mother-in-law, the truth of high merit covers the master, you should understand that I have enough power now, if I concentrate power excessively, this is a taboo for the emperor." Let Qi Niang serve as an economic envoy, isn't it because of this? β
Madame Bai said: "You have to understand that power is not equal to power, power plus power is power, this is a high-ranking minister must have, as long as you can control the power within the emperor's tolerance, then the emperor will not care, you can disperse power, but as a privy envoy, you can't do without your own power." Since Qin Hui took office as a young master. Soon established his own power, and now his protΓ©gΓ©s have reached more than 100 people. Qin Hui is such a smart person, doesn't he understand the problem of high merit? β
Li Qi said: "This--I am not in the same situation as him. β
"On this issue, you are all the same. The reason why Qin Hui did this. That's because he understands a truth, that is, the prime minister, the privy envoy, and the three envoys must contain each other, which is what the emperor wants to see the most, and he and you can't compare with the Zheng family and the Wang family. You don't have a strong family behind you in the court, you are all alone, and this situation is very special. Therefore, you must quickly establish your own power and create a new family, otherwise, you will not be able to achieve the effect of mutual containment, in a certain aspect, this is actually the emperor's acquiescence, if you want to establish your own power, the emperor will not have any ideas, because this is also what you must have.
Take this incident as an example, Qin Hui can achieve his goal without saying a word, and among them, the Zheng family also hopes to see Zheng Yi get a piece of the pie from the weapons prison, so there will be a group of ministers who stand up and force you to hand over your financial power. And you? You don't have any power, no one stands to help you, even if you can speak well, but you are always outnumbered, over time, this balance will appear strictly tilted, which is actually very dangerous for the privy envoys who may go on the expedition. β
Li Qi wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and said, "Yes, yes, thank you for reminding my mother-in-law, I will remember my mother-in-law's teachings." β
Madame Bai shook her head and said: "This kind of superficial truth, how can you need me to remind you, it's just that you have been pretending to be stupid, which is also the main reason why Qin Hui is tempting you, because your behavior is too abnormal, it is really incomprehensible, if it was before, maybe your age still makes people think that you are too young and don't understand the truth, but now, I believe that anyone who is a little sober will not dare to despise you." β
Qin Hui made such a big detour to test me, but you said so much, why not this purpose. Li Qi couldn't help but frown secretly.
Madam Bai glanced at him meaningfully, and said: "It is undeniable that in view of the lesson last time, your abnormality does make me restless, but this uneasiness is not because I am afraid that you will hurt our Bai family again, because our Bai family is now not even qualified to be hurt by you, but the safety of our Bai family, big and small, is tied to you alone, no matter what the reason, all in all, our Bai family does not want to see you have an accident." β
Li Qi pondered for a moment and said, "I have military power, and I don't need to be afraid of anyone. β
Madame Bai's eyes widened, and she said, "Is there another war soon?" β
Li Qi raised his hands, waved his hands and said, "Mother-in-law, you just have to tell fortunes-uh, this is a military secret, you can't talk nonsense." β
"Of course I understand, but."
Or again? I have already revealed such an important information to you, you still have to chase and fight, Li Qi's heart was inexplicably tight, at this moment, a subordinate suddenly walked in, interrupted Madame Bai's words, and said, "Madam, Gao Yannei is asking to see you outside the door." β
Li Qi hurriedly said, "Hurry up and invite Gao Yanei to come in." β
