Chapter 494 How to deal with yourself
The human heart is unpredictable, and the monarch's heart is even more impermanent, once the seeds of suspicion are planted, even if no one is watered and cared for, they will slowly germinate.
Wang Yan was a little helpless, he didn't know what the emperor's heart was? For the sake of conservatism, he can only choose to protect himself in the future, and when the emperor faces him, a minister of real power, when he is not sure whether he is still loyal, it is undoubtedly the safest to directly get rid of it for the sake of the stability of the imperial power.
In fact, the contradiction between the monarch and the minister has already appeared, but Wang Yan has always served the monarch decently, so the contradiction has not intensified, he already knew in his heart that there would be such a day, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
This incident was just a fuse, Wang Yan listened to Zuo Maodi's words, and looked at Su Guansheng again, he has always been too respectful and low-key, in order to ask the monarch and ministers to be of the same mind, but it also made Wenchen feel that he was bullied, so Su Guansheng and others wanted to use the treasury of the Wuzhong Army without consulting with him.
At this time, the balance between the monarch and the minister that Wang Yan has been seeking has cracked, leaving hidden dangers for the future, but the current situation should not have major changes, after all, the military and financial power are in Wang Yan's hands, since the emperor is afraid of him, there should be no radical actions for the time being.
Clearing his thoughts, Wang Yan took a long breath, and then exhaled heavily, "Elder Su Ge, you are mainly responsible for today's events!" The people's fat and people's ointment, and you can't loot it at will, where do you get the confidence to use the money of more than 100,000 soldiers, aren't you afraid of mutiny? ”
Su Guansheng's face turned pale, but Wang Yan continued: "The matter of sending troops to Sichuan and Shu, the imperial court has no money and food, and the five loyal troops can use the treasury, but the military resources in the army are also very tight, and resisting the Qing Dynasty is the first major thing. ”
After finishing speaking, Wang Yan turned around and left directly, leaving a few scholars in the hall, and their faces became heavy.
Seeing this, Zuo Maodi looked at Su Guansheng and said with a deep gaze: "It seems that this time you and I really lack consideration and force Shiheng to a point of no return." ”
Wang Yan's meaning is obvious, he must agree to aid Shu, and also agree to use the treasury of the Wuzhong Army, but he needs the imperial court to exchange some things, this matter could have been talked about in private, but it should not be brought to the surface.
Once it is raised in front of the emperor, there is no room for negotiation, and you can't bargain in front of the emperor and let the emperor take the mine and use the tax as collateral.
In the eyes of the emperor, the whole world is his, as a courtier, you control the military and political power of the imperial court, and now the imperial court wants to use soldiers, and you actually let the emperor take mines and taxes as collateral, what does this mean?
Wang Yan's proposal is a bit like a private loan, but who in the world dares to borrow money from the imperial court? As a representative of the gentry class, several cabinet elders never thought that there was such a solution.
Comparing hearts to hearts, if the emperor allows the Wenchen gentry group to help, then the government and the opposition will definitely oppose it, and the same court wants to move the interests of Xunzhen, why should Xunzhen impermanently agree?
Su Guansheng understood, it is estimated that this time he really pitted Wang Yan, as a civil minister, he instinctively despised the military ministers, so he did not think too much about the interests of the army, in fact, in order to compete with the Qing court for the hearts of the people, even Tian Fu did not dare to add, how could he dare to move the interests of more than 100,000 troops? He was too confident.
"This is the end of the matter, what can I do?" Su Guansheng regretted it a little, he really only needed to discuss it with Wang Yan first, and he could completely avoid it.
Zuo Maodi said: "I can only wait for Shi Heng's anger to subside, and after tomorrow after the court, I will discuss with him, but during this period, several colleagues will not do anything else." ”
Wang Yan hurriedly walked out of the palace, stepped on the war horse, and ran all the way back to the mansion, he did not go back to the backyard to rest, but plunged into the office.
When a group of staff saw him, they saluted one after another, but Wang Yan had a gloomy face and went directly into his room, leaving a group of puzzled staff.
When Wang Yan entered the room, everyone looked at each other, and then sat down again, and a scribe asked in a low voice, "Xianggong, what is this?" ”
The other person looked left and right, and then said in a low voice: "Throughout the ages, the most jealous of the high merit and the lord, this time the Xianggong won the victory and returned to the dynasty, and the proverbs were spread again, there must be someone who has been planning for a long time to frame the Xianggong~"
While the two were talking, several staff members were summoned into Wang Yan's room, and he immediately ordered people to invite the uncle and the two cousins to come over to the house to discuss.
In addition, he asked who the guards of the four gates of Guangjing were, and after learning that they were several old generals from Yangzhou, he asked Lu Shikui to immediately transfer another 500 soldiers from the military camp outside the city into the city to strengthen the guard of the Duke of Chu.
The proverbial incident, as well as today's events, made Wang Yan feel a crisis, and he had to be cautious.
A moment later, Yu Taichu was also summoned into the room by Wang Yan, asking him to find out the prophecy incident as soon as possible, as well as pay attention to various movements in Guangjing City, and install secret agents.
After returning home, Wang Yan gave orders in the room, and all kinds of people came in and out, so he was not busy.
More than an hour later, Wang Chao hired two cousins to come over, and there was one person behind him, which made Wang Yan a little surprised, he had a confidential matter to discuss with the Wang family, and there was no reason for the uncle to bring an outsider over.
A few people entered the study, Wang Yan got up to greet him, and Wang Chao hired him first: "Shiheng, this is Gu Yanwu of Eastern Wu, a native of Ning, who is a great talent in the world, and is his own person, Shiheng can rest assured." ”
"Meet the Prime Minister." Gu Yanwu immediately bowed.
Wang Yan saw that the person was about forty years old, wearing a Taoist uniform, wearing a scarf, a long beard, and a thin appearance, but it did not make people feel thin.
He was curious for a while, but since Wang Chaoping said so, this person must be worth believing, so he returned the salute and smiled slightly: "Mr. is polite." ”
After the ceremony, several people sat down, Wang Yan asked his subordinates to prepare some refreshments, then retreated left and right, let the guards guard outside the study, and then told the court today.
The monarch and the minister are worried about each other, this kind of thing can only be discussed with the people of the Wang family, because the matter develops to the end, and it may lead to the confrontation between the monarch and the minister, so what is the attitude of the literati around him, he is not completely sure.
After listening to this, several people were silent for a while, and finally Wang Chao hired the first to say: "After I came to Guangjing, I talked with Shiheng, and I knew that things would develop to this day sooner or later. But at the moment, Shi Heng can't mess up, first of all, Shi Heng and His Majesty only have a crack now, and the situation has not yet developed to the point where water and fire are incompatible, and with His Majesty's wisdom, he may suppress Shi Heng in the future, or find a force to balance Shi Heng, but the south has not recovered, and before the strong enemy goes, His Majesty should not have a big conflict with Shi Heng. ”
Wang Yan listened and nodded, this is also his idea, he holds the military and political power, the emperor does not have much strength, and it is unwise to deal with him now, but he still has something to worry about, "Uncle, what I am worried about, there are two now." First, if the monarch and the minister are not in harmony, how can I deal with myself? Second, although I hold the power of the imperial court and have gathered a lot of forces around me, it is mostly because I resist the Qing Dynasty and protect the Ming Dynasty and am loyal to the king, so there are literati who take refuge in me, but if the monarch and the ministers are not harmonious, I am opposed to Your Majesty, how many people can support me? ”
