Chapter 145: Two Stooges

The three stinkers, beating Zhuge Liang, Peng Yue looked at Xia Yan, and always felt as if there was one less person in the house...

"Lord Xia, since you already have some ideas, you might as well talk to me about it, maybe... Maybe in the process of our communication, we can think of a very good way... Actually, I also have some considerations, although it is immature, but it is worth a try..."

"Huh? Do you already have an idea? Xia Yan was very excited when he heard Peng Yue say this, "Tell me quickly..."

"Uh... I said, I'm just an immature idea...", Peng Yue turned his head sideways, and also looked a little embarrassed, "Let's talk about it first..."

"Okay, then I'll talk about my thoughts first...", Xia Yan didn't show any disappointment, but just straightened his sitting posture again, "Actually, if you think about it, Yan Song didn't use any great means, but he just slandered the emperor behind his back, which made the emperor angry with me." www.biquge.info If he can do this, why can't I? ”

"What do you mean..."

"Of course, he is looking for an opportunity to make a statement to the saint, so that Yan Song will also be reprimanded and punished, he Yan Song has done a lot of unsightly things...", Xia Yan tapped his fingers on the table and sneered, "Of course, the most important thing is to make the emperor suspicious and disgusted with Yan Song, and reduce his status in the emperor's mind." ”

"You're right, but the way... But there are some problems...", Peng Yue looked at Xia Yan, and his tone was a little hesitant, "Yes, if we want to deal with Yan Song, we should understand that the emperor's attitude is the most important, and we also know that attacking Yan Song's status in the emperor's mind is the most powerful counterattack against him, but... If you make a suggestion to the emperor. I'm afraid it won't work so well..."

"Lord Xia, look... Yan Song has just had a conflict with you, if you go to the emperor to complain about him at this time. Then the emperor will naturally regard this kind of advice as a kind of revenge from you, so that. The effect can be imagined, I'm afraid it won't be a blow to Yan Song, but it will be bad for himself..."

"Of course I do!" , Xia Yan said with a smile, obviously he was still very happy about Peng Yue's kind reminder, because he had reason to believe that Yan Song gave Peng Yue a daughter, which was also for nothing, Peng Yue was always his own person!

"I will certainly let others speak to the Holy Being. I also understand that I can't do this kind of thing in person..."

"The selection of that person is also a big problem, sometimes you make your own speeches, or the ministers who have a close relationship with you, the effect is the same...", Peng Yue reminded again on the side, "For example, the imperial history above the court yesterday has just been transferred to the capital, and almost no one has contact, but according to my guess." That person may have meant Yan Song's play, otherwise things would have been strange. But the emperor can't see it, so this kind of advance is more beneficial, and the next thing... And that's a matter of course. ”

"Yes. That imperial history is really hateful! At first, I wondered how to talk about Guo Xun's raid on his house out of thin air, but now it seems. It must be Yan Song's backstabbing! ”

"Lord Xia, don't be angry...", Peng Yue saw that Xia Yan was emotional. Hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop it, "In the emperor's heart." If you privately degrade the imperial history and transfer the official to the outside world, although it is very easy, it will inevitably be suspicious of the emperor and become a handle..."

"Alas... I can understand what you said...", Xia Yan sighed lightly, obviously looking a little displeased, "But... It's just a little aggrieved that people are calculating, but they have to swallow their anger..."

"In extraordinary times, you must be cautious...", Peng Yue smiled awkwardly, finding that the atmosphere was still a little awkward, "This first step is a good one, as long as you find some ministers who don't seem to be very close, and let them impeach Yan Song, it will always have an effect." After all, if someone is always talking about something, it will always work. ”

"It's not just that...", Xia Yan's eyes froze, as if he was pondering something, "The impeachment must be to the point, if it is played randomly, it will make the emperor disgusted." For Yan Song, we can't use this kind of crowd tactics, after all... Now the emperor still relies on him..."

"Hehe... Yes, you are right...", hearing that Xia Yan was able to analyze that Yan Song was relied on at this time, Peng Yue was a little happy in his heart, which showed that Xia Yan was very rational now and was not carried away, "As for what should be played, you can put more effort into the selection of personnel, such as the few imperial histories who made great efforts in the reverse Guo movement last time, they are all smart people and know what to say and what not to say." If you're not sure, we've got you covered. ”

"It's not necessary, they are all competent people, sometimes their ideas are better than ours, we must give them full trust, let them do it, and don't have too much contact with them."

"Hmm... Okay, I'll make a note of this...", Peng Yue replied with a smile, but he understood in his heart that Xia Yan had listened to his own opinion, and he would definitely not make Zhu Houxi suspicious in the selection of personnel, and he would avoid too much contact with them, it seemed that if Xia Yan's mind turned, it was indeed very human.

"But this alone is definitely not enough...", Xia Yan sat there and continued to frown and ponder, "I will pay attention to this aspect myself, and then do something in front of the emperor, this will definitely not be enough..."

"Zirui, didn't you say you still have some ideas?" , Xia Yan raised his head and looked at Peng Yue, "Now tell me what you have come up with..."

"I...", when asked by Xia Yan, Peng Yue also raised his head to meet his gaze, "When I heard you say just now, I was thinking about it myself, and now I have some formed ideas." ”

"Then hurry up and talk about it...", Xia Yan looked impatient on the side.

"Oh... Okay...", Peng Yue laughed, but he didn't seem to be in a hurry, "I think Yan Song and Guo Xun's situation is different, Guo Xun has always been a relative and a general, so his power is not so strong, and he can never extend to the central organization." To put it bluntly, he just relied on the emperor's favor for him, so if we want to bring down Guo Xun, as long as the emperor changes his mind, then everything will be fine, anyway, Guo Xun is so stupid, I don't know how to fight back correctly..."

"Now it's not about Guo Xun, it's about Yan Song..."

"Lord Xia, don't be anxious, the reason why I mentioned Guo Xun is naturally to better clarify Yan Song's matter...", Peng Yue said with a smile, "I mentioned Guo Xun just now to show that Guo Xun is very different from Yan Song, so we can't completely use the same method to deal with Guo Xun to deal with Yan Song..."

"That's right, don't look at Guo Xun's power is greater than Yan Song, but it's all a papier-mΓ’chΓ© tiger, and it has no effect at all. Moreover, Guo Xun is stupid and dull, his brain is not as flexible as Yan Song, and his methods are not as clever as Yan Song, so if he wants to deal with Yan Song, it may be more difficult..."

"Yes, but I think the most difficult point is not here, but in Yan Song's forces...", Peng Yue said with a long sigh of relief, "Yan Song has also managed a lot of his own forces in the DPRK over the years, these people are his eyes and ears, his hands and feet, they have formed an alliance of interests, with their help, Yan Song can carry out a favorable counterattack." And with their help, Yan Song can continue to do things to please the emperor to ensure that his favor will not fade..."

"You mean to find a way to eradicate these forces of Yan Song?"

"So to speak, but things are a little more troublesome to do...", Peng Yue licked his lips and narrowed his eyes, "We can try to win over some of them first, because their power is not small, and it is indeed unrealistic to attack them all..."

"Wooing? Hehe... Those who have taken refuge in Yan Song, I don't want to use it...", Xia Yan used the tea cover to wipe the tea leaves floating on the matcha water, with a nonchalant face, "Besides, it doesn't have to be a method to win over, in fact, many people in the Yan Party... I've long been displeasing to the eye..."

"Lord Xia, there are still a lot of people under Yan Song...", hearing Xia Yan say this, Peng Yue reminded worriedly, "We can't rashly attack so many people, otherwise it will inevitably cause the emperor to be jealous..."

"Hmm... Yes, you can't be so rash, but if you use legitimate channels to seize their handles and let the emperor decree to condemn them, then no one will say anything, right? Xia Yan said with a smile, "It's not impossible to use the bright rise and dark descent, some officials can be shaped, and it's not too much to transfer experience, you say, right?" ”

"Yes... Yes...", Peng Yue replied with a smile, "If that's really the case, there will be no consequences..."

"The method you mentioned is really good...", Xia Yan looked quite approving, "When the time comes, Yan Song's henchmen will be scattered, and there will only be a few people left, I will see what means he still uses to fix his favor, and what else can he use to fight with me!" ”

Hearing Xia Yan say this, Peng Yue's heart couldn't help but sink, and he just wanted to remind him a few more words, but he saw that Xia Yan had already stood up with a smile, "Zirui, don't leave today, and I've had dinner here, you and I will talk about it again..."

Peng Yue stood up and looked out the window, it was already a little dark. Originally, he planned to finish discussing with Xia Yan earlier, and then set aside some time to go to Xueqi's place to have a look, but now it seems that the time is indeed a bit rushed, so let's just talk about it in two days.

But thinking about the bride price for Xueqi tomorrow, although she said that she didn't need to prepare anything too carefully, she couldn't help but be careful, and she still had to prepare well. Thinking of this, Peng Yue bowed to Xia Yan and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Lord Xia, since you have an idea, then I can rest assured, but I do have some things, and it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, so I hope you will forgive me." ”

"Okay, okay, since you have something, I won't force you to stay...", Xia Yan looked very calm, and he didn't see any unhappiness at all, "I still have to thank you for today's events... Well, I'll have someone take you back in a carriage, and you'll save some time..."

"That, Zirui, thank you...", Peng Yue didn't need to excuse Xia Yan more, he was polite, and he was really anxious to go back and pick a gift for Xueqi now... (To be continued.) )
