Chapter 65: The Prime Minister's Mansion

If Tian Wei knew about these things, I was afraid that his lungs would be fried, but if he knew that the other party was Tao Qing, he would probably pinch his nose and admit it, and even spread rumors, so that everyone thought that it was indeed Chao Buzhi's idea and helped Tao Qing to lie.

In the same way, he will also tell Chao Buzhi these things, this is the way of survival of Tian Wei at this time, because it is really difficult to say who wins and who loses between the old hunter and the jackal.

Wang Sheng continued: "Tao Gong, the situation in the court is very clear now, Your Majesty loves Chao Wrong, and even replaces the Prime Minister's decree with his order, which is not a good sign, so Tao Gong You must strike first, otherwise the opportunity will be fleeting." ”

Tao Qing also understood this truth, and said silently: "How to start?" ”

"Although the prime minister is powerful, he has always contradicted the imperial power, which is why Wu Qi, Li Si and others are not good. Therefore, Tao Gong must not conflict with His Majesty if he wants to do it, and Tao Gong's purpose is to make mistakes, not to challenge His Majesty's authority. Wang Sheng analyzed.

"However, now that His Majesty is favored, it is not easy to kill him, but there are old precedents to follow." Wang Sheng continued.

Tao Qing smiled slightly, he understood the old precedent in Wang Sheng's words, that is, Zhou Bo and others expelled Jia Yi.

Wang Sheng continued: "But one of them must get rid of him, and at the worst of all, let him leave Chang'an." ”

Tao Qing faintly spit out a name in his mouth: "Chao Buzhi." ”

"Yes, it's Chao Sheng." Wang Sheng's face was a little gloomy and said: "Since this person has lived in Chao Cuo's mansion, although Chao Cuo's actions are not meticulous, but obviously there has been a great improvement from before, even in the face of Tao Gong, you can maintain an undefeated situation." ”

"Chao is wrong to govern the country and has great talents, but he is not good at interpersonal and scheming, which is his weakness, but now he has a plan to make up for it, and it has become a big trouble for him."

"Therefore, whether Tao Gong is in love or reason, this Chao Buzhi must leave Chang'an now, otherwise he is there, Chao Cuo has the favor of the Son of Heaven, and Chao Buzhi has the means, which can be called a combination of two swords, but it is not easy to deal with!"

Wang Sheng said in a somewhat solemn tone: "The prime minister's recommendation of Chao Buzhi to envoy the Xiongnu is a wonderful move. ”

Tao Qing heard that he was invincible and undefeated! You must know that he used to press Chao wrong, and this sentence was already Wang Sheng's face.

So Tao Qing sighed and said: "The Huns are in danger of fighting, and the Huns don't understand etiquette, Chao Buzhi, a young talent, I'm afraid it's a little dangerous!" ”

Wang Sheng knew in his heart that even if he didn't have his own analysis, Tao Qing would have already killed this Chao Buzhi.

"Expelling the Chao Supplement is the first step. Zhidu is about to arrive in Chang'an tomorrow, and with his temperament, he will definitely not be able to look down on Chao Cuo, so this second step is Zhidu's impeachment of Chao Cuo. ”

"But with His Majesty's favor at this time, he will definitely not hurt Chao Cuo in the slightest, but Chao Cuo will also make the Manchu Dynasty civil and military even more disgusted with him, because since ancient times, the favored ministers who have stood by the side of the Son of Heaven have no good end, and this second step is to have a bad name, so the greater the momentum of Zhidu, the better."

"The third step is to fish in troubled waters, Chao Wrong Chao made up for the idea of canonizing the king of Chu just now, Tao Gong can go and ask Your Majesty, will the Tui En order be implemented in the future? The younger son will inherit the title. ”

Having said this, Tao Qing couldn't understand it very well, although it was a question of Tui Enling, but it was a tradition for the Han people for hundreds of years, how to determine the heir?

Once this question is raised, it will be a powder keg lit!

At that time, there would be countless "Shangshan Sihao" who jumped out to accuse Chao Cuo, why not Emperor Jing, because Shengming had no Son of Heaven, it was all the fault of his subordinates, and it was Chao Cuo's fault.

Speaking of "Shangshan Sihao" there is also an allusion, when Liu Bang wanted to abolish the prince Liu Ying and set up Liu Ruyi, Lu Hou was in a hurry and asked Zhang Liang for help, and the person recommended by Zhang Liang was Shangshan Sihao.

They are Dongyuan Gong, Xia Huang Gong, Qili Ji, and Lu Li, and they are four Taoist hermits.

One day, Liu Bang had a banquet with the prince, and he saw four gray-haired old men behind the prince.

After asking, I found out that it was Shangshan Sihao. Si Hao stepped forward to apologize and said: "We heard that the prince is a man with lofty ideals, and he has filial piety, and he is a corporal of Lixian, so we will all be the prince's guests." ”

Liu Bang knew that everyone was very sympathetic to the prince, and saw that the prince was assisted by four great sages, and the ministers were against it, so he had to eliminate the idea of re-establishing King Zhao Ruyi as the prince.

The founding monarch Liu Bang still didn't dare to go against the will of the people so much, how could Emperor Jing dare?

And once this issue is discussed, the Empress Dowager Dou in the queen palace will also burst out with extraordinary vitality, because she will find that her youngest son King Liang has another chance to become the emperor's younger brother.

Tao Qing added: "The fourth step is to recommend Chao Buzhi to be the master of Wang Meiren's son, and the old man has already written to His Majesty." ”

Wang Sheng was stunned when he heard this, although this fourth step was a little different from what he imagined, but it could also achieve immediate results.

If these four strategies continue, even if the mistake is iron, it will not die or be crippled.

Of course, these have already been deployed by Tao Qing, and Wang Sheng just summarized and sorted them out.

At this time, someone suddenly came to report Dou Ying and Yuan Ang outside the door to see him, Tao Qing couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and he didn't understand how these two people came together.

However, he hurriedly ordered people to greet him, and Tao Qing stood up, which was enough to show respect for them, after all, Tao Qing was the prime minister.

Wang Sheng clenched his fists and retreated, flashing behind the screen in the inner hall.

After Dou Ying and Yuan Ang came in, the three of them saluted one after another, and then Tao Qing knelt on it, and Yuan Ang and Dou Ying were divided into two sides.

Tao Qing opened his mouth and said, "Why do the two of you have the leisure to come to the old man's place today? Could it be that something is going on? ”

Yuan Ang said with a gloomy face: "Tao Gong, why do you say this Chao Buzhi is so insidious? It's obvious that the old man who ran on him can't go out, but what about him now? Chang'an praised him for his reputation for understanding righteousness and not avoiding life and death? ”

Yuan Ang couldn't complain about this matter, after all, he had done this kind of thing all his life, that is, to take people in the name of righteousness, which was invincible, but who would have thought that when the time of recovery came, he was ruthlessly put on the spot by Chao Buzhi, and it was planted in the thing he was best at.

But Tao Qing is not easy to accept this, after all, at this time, Chao Buzhi is also serving the country, and as a prime minister, he can't be suppressed on the bright side, especially when this kind of internal and external troubles occur, otherwise once the old Liu family kills him, it doesn't matter if you are the prime minister or the general.

So Tao Qing directly changed the topic and asked, "Is Wang Sun also here because of this?" ”

Dou Ying said a little depressed when she heard this: "No, Your Majesty has given the old man a task to confuse the Huns, and let the old man cooperate with Tian Zhan. ”
