Chapter 232: Tang Yan Zhishi
"Brother Lu, rare guest." Wei Qiao walked to the front hall, looked at Lu Hu and said with a light smile.
Although the arrogance on Lu Hu's body is not as good as Ling Sheng when he first met, he still does not allow others to get close. He sat on the chair with a cold and arrogant expression, looked at Wei Qiao and said, "Wei Zhongcheng, the thunder has not fallen, it is better to hide." ”
Wei Qiao sighed secretly in his heart, this Lu Hu came straight to the point as soon as he saw him, and he wanted to catch him off guard. Fortunately, Wei Qiao's position is relatively firm, otherwise it will be inevitable to be flustered if he is someone else.
Wei Qiao smiled faintly and said, "What Lord Lu said is good. After speaking, he picked up the teacup and drank it gently.
Lu Hu's eyes flashed slightly, he didn't expect Wei Qiao to be so calm at all, and Wei Qiao actually used his words to ask him.
Will he heal him in his own way? All people who are calm in the face of problems often have a resolute surname and an indomitable will, which is extremely difficult to shake.
Lu Hu had only met Wei Qiao once in the past, and he had only tasted it, in fact, what he knew about Wei Qiao was only a few things to talk about. However, after Zhou Shaoyang was captured by Wei Qiao, King Jin had a deep talk with him, and this time, he was shocked to find that Wei Qiao played an indispensable and even extremely important role in the future direction of the Great Qi!
This time, King Jin talked to him a lot, from the layout of the court to the deployment outside the fortress, almost heart-to-heart. Wei Qiao, a person who has been in the limelight from the beginning to the present, but has been outside the core of power, has unknowingly become an extremely important and even pivotal giant in the future!
And, just before heading out, he had already gotten a piece of news that shocked him extremely!
That one, it's starting again.
Lu Hu turned countless thoughts in his heart for a while, and then glanced at Wei Qiao with a faint expression, and said, "I heard that Wei Zhongcheng arrested Zhou Shaoyang, a scholar from the Jin Palace?" ”
Wei Qiao didn't think much of Lu Hu's directness, he just wanted to put pressure on him and let him show his flaws.
Wei Qiao pretended to smile in surprise and said, "Lord Lu's news is well-informed, I brought back the front foot and you will come here." ”
Lu Hu ignored Wei Qiao's sarcasm and said, "Zhou Shaoyang is a bachelor of our Jin Palace, I hope Wei Zhongcheng can hand him over to me." ”
Wei Qiao picked up the teacup, fiddled with the tea leaves in the water, and said with a light smile: "Lord Lu, the person was caught by the princess, and there is nothing you can do about it, I hope you will forgive me." ”
Lu Hu frowned, it was not as easy to persuade Wu Qingning to make a friend as it was to persuade Wei Qiao. What's more, he didn't come this time to bring back Zhou Shaoyang, but to test Wei Qiao's attitude.
According to King Jin's narrative, Wei Qiao occupies an extremely important position in the future pattern of Daqi, and his attitude is directly related to the future development of Daqi, so Lu Hu came this time to investigate Wei Qiao's specific attitude.
For a long time, Wei Qiao has never targeted King Jin, and King Jin has not made a move on Wei Qiao, it can be said that the two did not tear their faces, and it is completely possible to cooperate, no, King Jin actually means that at least the two of them cannot become enemies, and it is best for Wei Qiao to watch and not interfere!
However, looking at Wei Qiao's calm and comfortable expression, Lu Hu knew in his heart that Wei Qiao was a person with a firm mind, and I was afraid that he already had an idea in his heart, and it would be extremely difficult to persuade him.
Lu Hu pondered for a while, looked at Wei Qiao and said, "Brother Wei, we are all understanding people, let's open the skylight and say something." ”
'Brother Wei'? Wei Qiao smiled and nodded without squeaking.
Lu Hu groaned and said: "Brother Wei, I think you already know that the emperor's body can last for three months at most, and now the prince has not yet been decided, and the big change is imminent, and it is not yet known who will kill the deer." I think Brother Wei also knows that King Jin and Fu Shoufu Wu Shuai have been allies from the beginning, and now Wu Shuai doesn't care about anything, His Royal Highness King Jin hopes that you can support him, and the details can be discussed in detail! ”
Wei Qiao shook his head and smiled indifferently: "Lord Lu, I think you are wrong, I am not as important as you think." ”
"No" Lu Hu immediately said in a deep voice: "Brother Wei, you are wrong, your current important surname is more than your father-in-law Wu Shuai!" ”
Wei Qiao was stunned, looked at Lu Hu's expression, held the teacup, and did not speak indifferently.
Seeing that Wei Qiao didn't speak, Lu Hu said with a solemn expression: "Brother Wei, I'm afraid you don't know yet, Tang Yan Tang Ge has already written to the emperor." ”
'Zhishi? Wei Qiao was really shocked in his heart, he just left a cabinet elder not long ago, although it was a normal Zhishi, but now after the court purge, another cabinet elder left, it is inevitable that people will speculate that this is not the emperor's cleaning of the cabinet after the court was cleaned.
Wait, purge the cabinet?
Wei Qiao's heart couldn't help jumping, did the emperor really want to purge the cabinet and clear all threats for the successor emperor?
Lu Hu said: "Brother Wei thought of it? ”
Wei Qiao nodded subconsciously, but what was Fu Li's attitude towards cleaning the cabinet? The cabinet is Fu Li's territory, can he really tolerate the emperor acting on his territory?
What made Wei Qiao's heart beat even more was that if the successor emperor wanted to ascend the throne safely, the key was not in the courtiers, but in the army! But most of the army is in the hands of his father-in-law, does the emperor also want to do something to the martial artists?
But then Wei Qiao shook his head again, the martial apprentice is his father-in-law, and if he wants to use the martial apprentice, he will inevitably be involved, so why does the emperor take care of him many times, and even send the gold medal inherited by the prince? Is it a reassurance or an exchange?
Wei Qiao's heart kept turning all kinds of thoughts, only to feel that this fog was getting thicker and thicker, and it was becoming more and more difficult to see.
Lu Hu saw Wei Qiao nodding and said: "It is simple for a smart person to speak, Brother Wei, in the future, when the King of Jin is successful, you will inevitably have the same status as your father-in-law, and you will play a pivotal role in Daqi." This sentence was said by His Highness himself! ”
Wei Qiao's heart was shocked, and suddenly there was a feeling of pushing aside the dark clouds and seeing the moon.
Thinking about the current cabinet and then thinking about the army, he suddenly felt that he already knew the layout of the emperor, but he still lacked a key link, that is, the successor to the throne. Perhaps, this is the reason for the restraint of all parties, they have already seen it if they want to come to Fu Liwu, right?
So, who will be the new emperor? And how can the emperor ensure a smooth transition to the throne and not become a puppet in the future?
Seeing that Wei Qiao's expression remained unchanged, Lu Hu thought about it to himself, and sighed secretly in his heart, "Brother Wei, His Royal Highness the King of Jin hopes that you will think about it carefully, if you haven't thought it through, or if the matter is not clear to the end, it is best not to get involved, so that Wei Qiao can leave more room for turning around in the future." ”
Wei Qiao glanced at Lu Hu with a light smile, I'm afraid this is the real purpose of his coming today.
Wei Qiao put down the teacup, groaned, and suddenly said, "Lord Lu, does King Jin have any clue?" ”
Lu Hu was stunned for a moment, then understood what Wei Qiao meant, his expression hesitated, and he shook his head and said, "No." ”
Wei Qiao glanced at him, nodded and smiled: "Master Lu sit down for a while, I'll go get something." ”
Lu Hu's eyes flashed with confusion and nodded.
Wei Qiao got up and went back and walked towards his study.
The purpose of Lu Hu's visit this time Wei Qiao is already clear, in addition to testing his attitude, more than that, I'm afraid it is also a warning. Although according to the emperor's layout, he and Wu Qingning should take over the power of the Wu family, and then, the emperor, the king of Jin, Fu Li, and the martial disciples, whether dead or alive, all retreated, and everything in Daqi was the business of their descendants.
However, after all, he is still very young now, if he wants to have no power, if he wants to have no status, he is not worthy of King Jin's wooing, at most he can get a warning.
Since the portion is not enough, add a little to yourself.
Wei Qiao smiled lightly and took out two gold medals from the secret compartment of the study, and then walked back.
"Brother Lu," Wei Qiao looked at Lu Hu and said, "Please also take a look at these two things." ”
'Brother Lu'? Lu Hu looked at Wei Qiao, and instinctively had a trace of vigilance in his heart.
Wei Qiao smiled lightly, took out two gold medals from his arms and put them on the table, and slowly spread them out.
Lu Hu's expression suddenly changed, and he stood up from the chair with a bang, his eyes wide open, and his eyes were full of blazing light!
This gold medal is generally given by the previous emperor to the next emperor's first assistant or important minister, each of the two gets one of them, but the actual establishment of the crown prince to inherit the throne has always been the absolute private right of the emperor, and no one can touch it!
But now that the two gold medals are all in Wei Qiao's hands, there may be only one surname - the prince has been decided!
Is it already decided? Who is that, haven't you heard that there is anyone in the clan who is particularly outstanding recently, or who is very close to the people around the emperor?
Lu Hu's heart turned over for a while, his brows were tightened, his eyes were cold, and his face changed rapidly.
The prince has been chosen, does that mean that the emperor's layout has been perfected and is foolproof, and no one can resist it?
Wei Qiao held the teacup, looking at Lu Hu's ever-changing face, and a smile flashed on the corner of his mouth.
But soon Lu Hu hesitated and sat down, although his eyes were still flashing, his face had begun to gradually calm down.
Wei Qiao quietly put away the gold medal that Lu Hu's eyes were staring at, and said with a faint smile: "Brother Lu, Qingning will return to the door later, and I will not be well entertained." ”
Lu Hu suppressed the churning in his heart, took a deep breath secretly, stood up and stared at Wei Qiao with flickering eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Wei, come back to visit in the next day." ”
Wei Qiao really gave him a big surprise, he wanted to go back immediately to report, perhaps, it was not only him who would come tomorrow, but even King Jin would come, right?
Wei Qiao looked at Lu Hu who was leaving, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he whispered to himself: "The water is already muddy, if I stir it again, it will be more interesting, right?" ”
When Wei Qiao came back, Wu Qingning had already ordered someone to start moving the sand table out of the study, ready to load it into a carriage and take it back.
This made Wei Qiao a little crying and laughing, and Wu Qingning, who has always been smart and clever, would not be able to turn around.
Wei Qiao smiled and stopped, "No need, just go back and make another one, it's not troublesome." He didn't say that it would be broken in the carriage and would have to be redone.
Wu Qingning's eyes widened, staring at Wei Qiao and blinking, as if he was surprised that he had become stupid.
