Chapter 305: Extraneous Branches (Part II)
I see, that's why he appeared at this feast. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Yang Zhen glanced thoughtfully at Song Xueqiao over there. But at the same time, another question also came to his mind: "What is Feng Bao's purpose in making this arrangement?" Naturally, it is impossible to be as kind as said, is it to share my credit? But there will be many difficulties in going to Shanxi, and no one has the idea of necessarily being able to make meritorious contributions, isn't he making trouble for himself by making such an arrangement? ”
Song Xueqiao saw that Yang Zhen was silently pondering after hearing Liu Shouyou's words, and he didn't feel a little nervous in his heart, for fear that the other party would refuse, so he hurriedly gave Liu Shouyou a look. Liu Shou was aware and hurriedly coughed: "What, Yang Zhen, do you think there is any difficulty in this matter?" If this is the case, the Governor will not embarrass you, and the Governor will bear the blame for it. ”
With a good strategy of retreating and advancing, he has said it to this point, how can Yang Zhen, as a subordinate, still refute his face, and is he not afraid that other colleagues will be annoyed by this?
Of course, Yang Zhen also understands this, but he also has his own considerations, even if he knows that he is a little disrespectful, he can only say it in front: "Forgive me, my subordinates just thought of a difficult place, so they hesitated." ”
"Oh, but what's the problem?"
"Brother Song is a thousand households in Dongchang, and his subordinates are Jinyi Wei thousand households. This time we went to Shanxi to do business, if there was a disagreement between them, but I don't know who should call the shots. Yang Zhen said very vaguely, in fact, it just means one thing, who is the master and who is the slave when the two go to Shanxi.
Liu Shouyou was obviously stunned for a moment when he heard this. In fact, in his habits, as long as he does things with the people of Dongchang, they have always had the final say, and he has never had the intention of competing with them for dominance. But now Yang Zhen threw out the question, which made it a little difficult for him to answer.
Song Xueqiao understood his embarrassment, so he smiled: "Yang Qianhu doesn't have to worry about this, Gonggong Feng has already been interesting, and he said that he will assist you to go to Shanxi on an errand, so naturally you will be the main one." ”
Yang Zhen turned his gaze from Liu Shouyou's face to Song Xueqiao, and a smile appeared on his face: "Since this is what Gonggong Feng meant, then obey the order!" Song Qianhu, I hope that you and I can help each other and work together to complete this errand. ”
"That's nature. Although I have heard of Yang Qianhu's name before, this is the first time I have seen you in real person, and I should be closer to you in the future. Song Xueqiao also smiled and said. No one knows, when he said this, he was only thinking about how to kill Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen smiled: "Song Qianhu is wrong, you and I are not meeting for the first time today." ”
"Huh? What do you mean by that? Have you met Yang Qianhu and me earlier? ”
"Maybe Song Qianhu, you are a noble person and don't remember some details, but I do. When he first came to the capital last year, he had a relationship with Song Qianhu in the Yamen of the Zhenfu Division. Yang Zhen said.
Although these words seemed ordinary, as if Yang Zhen was almost in love with Song Xueqiao, it was another feeling in the ears of Song Xueqiao, a caring person: "Has he sensed that I am hostile to him?" Is it the news that was revealed to the eagle? With some suspicion in his heart, the smile on his face gradually faded.
Yang Zhen was to warn the other party, and at the same time suppress his momentum, and seeing that the effect had been achieved, he turned to look at Liu Shouyou again: "Since the governor mentioned this official matter just now, then his subordinates also happen to have something to ask for." ”
Unexpectedly, Yang Zhen would have the ability to climb the pole, Liu Shouyou was stunned, but he still nodded and said: "You said, this is an official matter of the imperial court, as long as the governor can help you, he will definitely not refuse." ”
"I hope to select some people from the thousands of households in Jinyi and Wei and take them to Shanxi together. In this way, if you encounter any trouble, you will have enough ability to deal with it. ”
"This ......" Yang Zhen's request hit Liu Shouyou's vital point. He has always attached great importance to his own power, and he can't bear to share his own power among his subordinates, among which the control of Jinyiwei is the most important.
Yang Zhen's reputation in Jinyi Wei had made Liu Shouyou very unhappy before, and he kept pressing him to prevent him from having a chance to show his face again. Now that he is going to Shanxi, he has to bring some Jinyi guards as subordinates, which makes Liu Shouyou feel that the other party is going to divide his power. He is very clear about Yang Zhen's ability and courage, once these Jinyi guards follow him and make meritorious contributions, then his power in the Jinyi Guards is not small.
But just now he was full of words, and even if he wanted to excuse himself, he couldn't find a suitable reason, so he had to say: "This governor should naturally agree to you." However, now you also know the situation of the Jinyi Guard, there are fewer people available, and if you are assigned by the governor at will, you are afraid that your big things will be ruined. Well, in two days, how about you personally come to the Pacification Division and select the right people? ”
Although Yang Zhen could see that the other party didn't really want to allocate manpower to him, Liu Shou would definitely have a back-up to deal with such an arrangement. But at this time, it was impossible for him to object to Liu Dudu's intentions, so he nodded and agreed.
Because the business had already been discussed, Liu Shouyou was unhappy because he felt that he had been countercalculated by Yang Zhen, and today's banquet ended hastily after more than half an hour. It's just that at this moment, the time has come to the second watch.
Yang Zhen and the others got up one after another to say goodbye, and after coming to the gate of Liu's house, these colleagues of Jinyiwei said goodbye again, looking as if they had been friends for many years. Even Yang Zhen and Song Xueqiao, two opponents who have fought openly and secretly several times, also said goodbye with a smile and agreed to set off together on a later day.
Seeing Yang Zhen turn over and get on the horse and smack away, the smile on Song Xueqiao's face completely disappeared, and was replaced by a cold face. As soon as he turned around, he got into the carriage that had followed. There was also a person sitting in the car at this time, who was his confidant and subordinate Zhou Zhi.
"My lord, are things going well?" Zhou Zhi handed over a cup of sour soup to relieve hangover, and asked with concern in his mouth.
"This is what Gonggong Feng and Liu Shouyou mean, does he dare to disobey?" Song Xueqiao took a sip of decanting soup a little tiredly, frowned and sighed lightly: "I thought that I should be able to rest for a while when I returned to Beijing this time, but I didn't want to go out of Beijing again." ”
It turned out that in the past nearly half a year, Song Xueqiao did not trouble Yang Zhen anymore not because he retreated, but because he was assigned by Feng Bao to go to other places to do things, and he had just returned to the capital. After he came back, he would be able to live a good life with An Jizong for a period of time when he only envied the mandarin ducks and not the immortals, but before his ass was hot, Feng Bao sent someone to recruit him.
After meeting, Feng Bao asked him to follow Yang Zhen to Shanxi, and stared at him, not telling him to talk about his involvement with the generals from Shanxi. After Song Xueqiao understood what Feng Bao meant, he was stunned, and suddenly realized that another opportunity for him to deal with Yang Zhen was close at hand.
"Shuanglin Gong, if I go to Shanxi with him, I'm afraid that it is still him Yang Zhen who is in charge, can I still influence his will?"
"It's up to you. If the matter is really urgent, I will allow you to use the power of our East Factory to destroy the evidence. ”
"But...... Shuanglin Gong also knew that Yang Zhen was shrewd, and his subordinates were still worried that he would see something wrong from it, and it would be even more unfavorable at that time. ”
"What do you want to say?"
The subordinates thought that it would be fine if he did things in peace. Once he has bad intentions and wants to be unfavorable to Shuanglin Gong, then why don't we strike first and ...... him?"
"Well, you're still thoughtful. Then I will write you a warrant, and if he refuses to do what you want, and it affects my safety, you will take his power and replace him. And before returning to Beijing, I thought of getting rid of him for me. ”
As soon as he spoke, Song Xueqiao obtained a secret order from Feng Bao that could put Yang Zhen to death. That's why he was polite to Yang Zhen today, because in his eyes, Yang Zhen was already a dead man. Even if Yang Zhen didn't do anything that threatened Feng Bao, he would have to find an opportunity to get rid of him when he went to Shanxi, this was for his own Lang Jun'an Jizong!
"My lord, I'm home." In Song Xueqiao's contemplation, the carriage had already driven to its destination, that is, Song Xueqiao's house.
Song Xueqiao came back to his senses and smiled: "You can go back and prepare, you are indispensable to Shanxi." ”
"Yes." Zhou Zhen agreed, and got out of the car first, and then put down the pedal and helped Song Xueqiao get out of the car.
Just before Song Xueqiao was about to go to the backyard, he suddenly paused, and thought of something: "By the way, just relying on the prestige of Shuanglin Gong, I'm afraid I can't make Yang Zhen comply, do you know if there are any available people on the way to Shanxi?" ”
"This ...... There are still. In the past, when we subdued the major gangs in the rivers and lakes, there were several forces that were not small and were on top of Shanxi. If the Lord gave the order, they would not dare to disobey. ”
"Oh?" A hint of strangeness suddenly flashed in Song Xueqiao's eyes. The original plan was suddenly replaced by another, more radical and more successful idea. So he made a gesture and whispered a few words in Zhou Zhen's ear.
Zhou Zhen's expression changed suddenly: "Is it really feasible for adults to do this?" ”
"Hmph, who can say for sure what is unexpected? Anyway, if he goes to Shanxi, he will die the same, why don't we start sooner? ”
Zhou Zhi saw that he had made up his mind, so he stopped persuading and nodded in response: "Yes, then the subordinates will do it." ”
"Go ahead. Remember that this must be done in secret, even if it is other people in the East Factory, you must not leak it. ”
"Yes!" Zhou Zhi bowed again, and then strode out.
"Anlang, don't worry, I will definitely help you fulfill your wish this time." Song Xueqiao, who walked into the backyard, only had his man in mind......
