The drunken Yang Zhao spewed wine into the garden, looking triumphant, but he didn't forget to greet Mrs. Qin Guo first, and then sat on the chair and said repeatedly: "Don't you want to make me a cup of tea?" My mouth is very dry. ”

Zi Yun'er frowned and made him a cup of tea, Yang Zhao drank it dry in two sips, wiped the water stains on his beard and snorted with satisfaction.

Mrs. Qin frowned and said, "Didn't you see Master Wang saluting you?" ”

Yang Zhao saw that Wang Yuan was still standing aside, maintaining a posture of arching his hands, and said busily: "It's rude, it's rude, we don't have to be so polite between us, let's sit down." ”

Wang Yuan sat down with a smile and asked, "Looking at Du Zhilang's expression, it goes without saying that the matter has been done." ”

Yang Zhao laughed and said, "Don't you know? Li Linfu wrote a note. Give it to Yang Shenjin, even if Yang Shenjin releases all the people arrested last night home, this case will not be big again. No, Li Linfu left me for a drink. ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "Sure enough, Du Zhilang still has a set. ”

Mrs. Qin Guo said, "Did Wang Ji help you?" ”

Yang Zhao nodded and said: "Wang Zhao is very on the road, helping me to fulfill my lies, and acting is really similar." As soon as the two of us sang and harmonized, Li Linfu was confused. Li Linfu also thanked me for giving him a wake-up call. ”

Wang Yuan asked, "But I don't know how you said that Wang Ji was moved." ”

Yang Zhao said: "Wang Ji is very cunning, he was reluctant at first, but I listened to your advice, tried my best to win him over, and made a deal with him. Now I dare to guarantee that in my fight for the left minister, Wang Ji is definitely a helper rather than a hindrance. ”

"Deal? What kind of deal was that? Wang Yuan asked.

"I know that Wang Ji has been in a bad mood recently, and he has been pressed by Yang Shenjin by Li Linfu's side, and good things will not be on his turn. So I told him that as long as I became the left minister, I would give him something back. promised to recommend him to be the head of the household. After Xiao Yinzhi, the imperial historian, recommended him as the imperial historian, so that he would have a higher official position. Wang Ji was as happy as if he was something, so he agreed to help me secretly. Yang Zhao said with a smile.

Mrs. Qin Guo frowned and said, "How can you do this? Not to mention whether you can sit in the position of the left minister, even if you sit in the position of the left minister, how can you promise Wang Ji so much? Aren't you asking for trouble? ”

Yang Zhao smiled and said, "Eighth sister, don't worry, I lied to him." How could I do what he thought? It's just a pie to show him. I have already promised Zhang Qiu and Qiong, and as for the Imperial Doctor, don't even think about it. Even if I become the left minister, I don't count this position. I played with the white wolf with empty gloves and asked him to do things for me. ”

Mrs. Qin Guo sighed and said, "This is about the same. ”

Yang Zhao smiled, turned his head and saw Wang Yuan frowning and silent, patted Wang Yuan's shoulder and said, "What's wrong?" Does Fellow Wong think it's inappropriate? ”

Mrs. Qin Guo also looked at Wang Yuan and said, "Does Master Wang have anything to say?" ”

Wang Yuan smacked his lips and said, "Du Zhilang's method of empty gloves and white wolf has indeed worked. But I think there's something wrong with that. ”

Yang Zhao said: "What do you say? ”

Wang Yuan said: "The position of the left minister is currently the focus of contention, and Li Linfu must have a candidate in his heart." Eight times out of ten, I guess. Nine is Yang Shenjin, or the person he thinks is suitable, not you Yang Duzhi. ”

"Needless to say? How could he let me get it so easily? Isn't that? Yang Zhao said with a smile.

Wang Yuan waved his hand and said, "Listen to me." The position of the left minister is actually a scorching fire pit, and whoever sits on it will be miserable, because with Li Linfu here, he will make you suffer everywhere. Yang Shenjin and Wang Jie, plus the lackeys of Li Linfu in Yushitai, he can catch your mistakes and attack at any time, and if you are not careful, you will follow in the footsteps of Li Shizhi. The more amiable it is on the surface, the more ferocious it will be in the dark. Are you sure you can fight it? ”

Yang Zhao frowned and said: "I didn't understand what you meant, do you want to fight for the position of the left minister?" ”

Wang Yuan shook his head and said: "Of course not, this is your best chance to sit in the position of the left minister, and you can not lose it." The moment you sit in the position of the left minister, there is actually a war between you and Li Linfu, unless you give up the position of the left minister this time and show a docile and obedient posture, Li Linfu may not want to provoke the Yang family, and will only focus on the prince. But you and I both know that this is impossible, the position of the left minister is inevitable, and it is a matter of time before there is a war with Li Linfu, so we must prepare for this early. ”

Yang Zhao said: "What do you want to say?" ”

Wang Yuan said: "What I want to say is that what you promised Wang Ji must be done after you become the left minister." If you deceive Wang Jie, although you will gain a momentary advantage, you will eventually cause him to bite back wildly. To deal with Li Linfu, you must first cut off his right-hand man. I talked to you about this a long time ago. ”

Yang Zhao was shocked: "You mean, simply go all out to win over Wang Ji and let him break away from Li Linfu and become my person?" ”

Wang Yuan shook his head and said: "Wang Ji is so cunning, I'm afraid that you haven't reached the time for him to take refuge, even if you become the left minister, your power in the court is still very thin, and he is not a fool, why should you give up the big tree of Li Linfu and follow you?" ”

Yang Zhao was silent, although Wang Yuan's words were not listened to, but they were indeed true. Although the Yang family is powerful, it is just a favor for the concubine. There is no power in the DPRK and China. Several men of the Yang family have very low official positions, and only he can still speak. Although His Majesty favors the concubine, he did not blindly promote the official position of the Yang family brothers, and it seems that he still has some ideas in his heart.

Although it is impossible for Wang Ji to betray Li Linfu for the time being, there is one thing he is definitely willing to do, and that is to deal with Yang Shenjin. The contradiction between Yang Shenjin and him is the most worthy of exploitation. Therefore, first, you can't deceive Wang Jie, you must fulfill your promise and help him become the head of the household, so that he will not bite you to death, and you will have one less enemy. Second, we want to use Wang Ji to deal with Yang Shenjin, Wang Ji knows many of Yang Shenjin's secrets, and we don't know anything. To take advantage of this point, dig out Yang Shenjin's sore spot and remove Yang Shenjin, which will make Li Linfu feel painful. Wang Yuan said in a low voice.

Yang Zhao gasped, Wang Yuan was so bold, he never thought of dealing with Yang Shenjin, Wang Yuan actually suggested that he do this, if he was not careful, the consequences would be extremely serious.

"I agree with the fact that I continue to win over Wang Jie, it's a big deal to arrange another position for Zhang Qiu and Qiong, but it's not easy to deal with Yang Shenjin. Yang Shenjin is cautious, rarely shows people, and it is too difficult to deal with him. I'm afraid it's self-defeating. Yang Zhao pondered.

Wang Yuan said: "I know it's not easy, so I can slowly figure it out, and I must have a good relationship with Wang Jie, and there must be a flaw in Yang Shenjin's mouth." In fact, sometimes it doesn't take much evidence to deal with a crime, especially someone like Yang Shenjin. I heard that he is a member of the royal family of the previous dynasty, and he has the blood of the emperor of the Sui Dynasty flowing in his body, so I don't need to say more, you should understand what I mean. ”

Yang Zhao and Mrs. Qin Guo took another breath of cold air and looked at Wang Yuan with frightened expressions.

Wang Yuan smiled and said, "Don't look at me like this, I also think about your Yang family." Look at Wei Jian, Li Shizhi, and Li Yong, Li Linfu will never tolerate dissent. If Du Zhilang and his wife think that Li Linfu does not dare to touch a single hair of your Yang family, then I didn't say it. ”

The answer is obvious, Li Linfu dares to move even the crown prince, let alone the Yang family. The people Li Linfu wants to move are basically a dead end. For more than a decade, Li Linfu's actions as prime minister have proved this, and there is nothing to doubt about it.

"The matter...... Let me think about it, the stakes are too high to be hastily decided. Yang Zhao said in a low voice.

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "Of course, Du Zhilang thinks about it clearly. By the way, how did Li Linfu be willing to listen to your persuasion and let Yang Shenjin stop? Could it be that Du Zhilang also made a deal with Li Linfu? ”

Yang Zhao recovered and recounted the matter with a smile.

Wang Yuan was surprised: "Is there really such a thing?" Is Mo Guangkun really a person? ”

Yang Zhao smiled and said: "Of course there is, there are indeed people who are officials in the Ministry of Rites." ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "This is really a coincidence, Mo Guangkun is a relative of the high internal supervisor, no wonder Li Linfu is afraid." ”

Yang Zhao laughed and said, "Where did you come from?" I just made up a story to fool Li Linfu, and Mo Guangkun couldn't fight with Gao Neijian. The words of those two little chamberlains were also fabricated by me, and they have nothing to do with Colliers. ”

Wang Yuan was stunned and said, "This ...... Are you even fooling Li Linfu? What if he asked? ”

Yang Zhao said with a smile: "Let him go and say hello, there are thousands of servants in the palace, and he will ask one by one?" Or did he take the initiative to find himself bored and go to Colliers to testify? As for that Mo Guangkun, he is my person, and he will say whatever I want him to say. ”

Wang Yuan was speechless in surprise.
