Chapter 581: Why is this king worried?
New Document(77)
Shangguanchen is always thick-skinned, and no matter at any time, he has enough reasons to defend himself.
It's as if he deserves to be dressed in fine clothes and food.
Qin Shaoyou wanted to refute him, but after thinking about it carefully, he found that there was no way to refute it at all, because this guy is indeed eating this line of food, this guy always seems to be the most trendy person, but on the contrary, his behavior similar to nonsense has done a lot of things for himself, although the Shence Mansion allocates countless money and food to him every year, but these money and food, even Qin Shaoyou has to admit that they have fully exerted their due value.
Shangguanchen's Zhu Lou has been completely renewed, of course, not that the most prominent building in Luoyang City except for Luoyang Palace has been renovated, but because of Qin Shaoyou's increased demand, the scale of Zhu Lou has begun to grow day by day.
When Qin Shaoyou was still only in Mengjin, Zhu Lou's purpose was just to make friends with some people who needed it and find out some things in Luoyang. After all, for Qin Shaoyou, Meng Jin at that time only had some needs for some movements in the court.
But when Qin Shaoyou's Shence Army completely controlled Henan Mansion, and the imperial court also moved to Chang'an, the role of Zhu Lou also changed unconsciously, in addition to infiltrating Henan Mansion, more people began to settle in Chang'an, and in Chang'an City, many celebrities needed to make friends.
Nowadays, it is a completely different matter, when the tide of the Shence Mansion rises, when the industrial and commercial group of Mengjin begins to need to open up more and more markets, especially after the establishment of the Thirty-Seven Towns by Wei, the Council Hall almost did not hesitate to approve Zhu Lou's plan to increase the budget, and the annual allocation of money and grain to Zhu Lou has been as high as nine million yuan.
This figure is almost equivalent to two or three percent of the consumption of the Shence Army, which can be described as an astronomical amount and is astonishing.
Nature...... Since countless amounts of money have been sent to Shangguan Chen, Shangguan Chen should always have an explanation. On the basis of the original Zhu Lou, he carried out drastic reforms. On the one hand, he vigorously trained and recruited a group of relatively capable personnel, and then, on the basis of these personnel, he set up Zhu Louwei.
Zhu Louwei, just listening to the name, looks a bit like a militarized organization, but in fact, Shangguanchen has indeed implemented semi-militarization. He subdivided the entire Zhu Louwei into two guards, the left guard was stationed in Luoyang, and the right guard was entrenched in Chang'an, and the number of each guard was about 3,000 people, adding them together, there were as many as 6,000 people.
Under the two guards, there are eighteen or nineteen flags each, and the so-called flags are just the organizations of each town. Almost all of the thirty-seven towns in the world have been included in the control of Zhu Louwei, and the world is divided into two, which are managed by the left and right guards. According to the importance of each flag, most of the personnel are between 30 and 150 people, and each town has a flag chief to plan intelligence. Making friends with more important local figures, and at the same time receiving some business house personnel, the flag commander is not involved in intelligence gathering. The meaning of their existence is more like receptionists, they not only maintain relationships with local people, but also give some business travel convenience to the past.
Under each banner, there are scribes who are responsible for passing on official documents and recording local customs, there are school captains who are responsible for collecting commercial information, such as how the price of silk fluctuates in the area, and there are also personnel who are responsible for spying on some important people.
The performance of each flag will be divided into important and ordinary ways and the like, choose to send it out urgently, or send it out quickly, and finally summarize it to the left and right guards, if the left and right guards feel that the situation is urgent, they will be sent to Shangguanchen's desk in the fastest way, if it is just ordinary news, it will be classified, so that it is convenient for the council hall and even ordinary businessmen to consult.
This model has made Zhu Louwei no longer limited to an intelligence organization, and can even assume some commercial functions, such as a recent flood in a certain place, the bridge has been washed away, if it is a businessman from other places, just want to pass through that place, he didn't know before, it is very likely to make a mistake, if he can check some news about his business route in advance, he can always be prepared.
Moreover, some big commercial houses want to operate or buy some things in a certain place, if each commercial house has its own people to make friends and inquire about some news, it is inevitable to waste time, and Zhu Louwei provides a convenience, as long as the businessmen from Mengjin or Luoyang are willing to come to the door, most of them can listen to some news, at the same time, if you want to know and make friends with some local figures, accumulate contacts, so as to lay out the next business layout, Zhu Louwei because of his long work in the local area, three teachings and nine streams, also recognize, you can thread the needle on behalf of the thread.
In this way, it is much easier to do things, and those things that were originally very troublesome have now become much simpler, and the effort that originally took a year and a half can be greatly reduced.
It is precisely because of this that the council hall was very happy when it came to increasing Zhu Louwei's budget, and these big businessmen and wealthy parliamentarians could see the benefits brought by Zhu Louwei, and they were willing to invest a large amount of money in public and private, hoping that Shangguanchen would continue to do this.
Zhu Louwei's information is naturally not completely unscreened, some of them can be consulted, some are secrets sent to the Shence Mansion or the Five Military Mansions, and some are top secrets that can only be presented to Qin Shaoyou and the most core people around Qin Shaoyou, and there will be subdivisions.
Originally, this kind of thing, ordinary people look big-headed, and the guy Shangguanchen is giggling on the surface, but in fact he is a person with a meticulous heart, and he is actually in order, of course...... He can have such an effect, which is naturally inseparable from the money of eight or nine million yuan a year, and it is precisely because he has money and enough money for him to squander that he can play so big.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Now that you are the master of six or seven thousand Zhu Louwei secret agents, although Shangguan Chen has not changed his cynical temperament, his bearing is still a little more stable after all.
So when he said a few crooked words, he also knew that there was no need to talk nonsense anymore, so he turned straight and said: "Your Highness, there is one thing, the lower officials came to report, this matter is very important, and it cannot be passed on to anyone's ears." That's why the lower officials are waiting here. β
"Where's the news?" Qin Shaoyou smiled, in fact, he was far more than just the relationship between superiors and subordinates to Shangguan Chen, so it was much easier to talk to Shangguan Chen, and he was not as cautious as in front of outsiders.
Shangguan Chen said: "Daming Palace ......"
When Qin Shaoyou heard this, he immediately stopped relaxing, the news in the palace? And since Shangguanchen specially came to tell him, this shows that this so-called news in the palace must be extraordinary. Therefore, Qin Shaoyou sat up straight and said, "You say." β
Shangguan Chen glanced at Qin Shaoyou and said, "Your Highness, in the Daming Palace, just half a month ago, a female official suddenly appeared in a certain medicine shop, although this female official is dressed as an ordinary noblewoman, but Zhu Louwei's people know her details. How did she know that when she came out of the palace, she was already being targeted, and this person was a female official of Changle Palace. In charge of Empress Wei's daily life, she went to the pharmacy and bought a few medicines, but these medicines. It was really rare, and the owner of the pharmacy did not stock up for a while, so he made an appointment to pick it up in two days. Later, Xia Guan carefully checked it, and then learned that if these several flavors of medicine are mixed together, it may cause people to be weakened, to a certain extent, this is poison, but the amount of poison is not large, not enough to be fatal. The female official, after a few days, went out of the palace again, came out early in the morning, and went back at noon, and the pharmacy was still lacking, so she made an appointment to come the next day......"
Qin Shaoyou was already frowning.
The female official in the palace went out to buy medicine, and this medicine may also be poison, which is definitely not a simple matter, but the question is, who is this poison used for.
Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but say: "Is it possible that this female official has some personal grudges with the people in the palace, so she wants to take the opportunity to take revenge?" β
In this regard, Shangguan Chen smiled, quite a little ridiculed Qin Shaoyou, of course, looking at the entire Henan Mansion, the only person who dared to show such an expression to Qin Shaoyou was Shangguan Chen.
The reason why Shangguan Chen ridiculed Qin Shaoyou was only because in this regard, Qin Shaoyou was indeed a little ignorant, Shangguan Chen shook his head and said: "Of course this is possible, but it is not very likely, Your Highness, that female official, most of the time, is out of the palace in the morning, how can a female official in the palace enter and leave the palace at will?" And she is a female official who waits for the driver, and in the morning, she is on duty, how is it possible, the people in the pharmacy say when they will come to pick up the medicine, she can pinch the time and come as soon as she says? β
Shangguan Chen paused: "If it's just because of personal grudges, it's just this female official's private behavior, even if she can take the opportunity to take a leave of absence in the palace, she may not be sure at the time, and it is impossible for the people in the pharmacy to say that she will be able to appear when she comes at a certain day and time." And the only possibility is that someone in the palace allows her to leave the palace at any time, naturally, some female officials have the right to allow people to leave the palace, and the problem is that she is a female attendant, which means that she has to be taken care of by Wei's side at all times, even if someone grants her leave, Wei Hou can't see anyone at the end of the three days, won't she ask, what does she use to prevaricate? β
Qin Shaoyou narrowed his eyes and said, "Then, what do you mean to say that she can come and go so casually, and she can pinch the hour, which means that she must be instructed by someone, and there is only one person who can instruct her and ensure that she leaves the palace at any time and no one cares, and that is Empress Wei." β
Shangguan Chen nodded hurriedly: "Yes, that's the truth, in this way, it can be ruled out that this female official is to vent her personal anger, she should just be sent, and in the palace, the only person who can send her is Empress Wei." β
Qin Shaoyou gasped, and Empress Wei ...... Let the female officials around you go out to buy medicine, there is no medicine in this palace, why do you need to go out to buy it secretly, besides, it is still such a poison, who is Empress Wei going to deal with?
Shangguan Chen seemed to see through Qin Shaoyou's thoughts, and he said lightly: "Empress Wei has always been a man of his word in the palace, if she wants to harm people, there is no need to make such a trick, to say it is ugly, even if it is other concubines in the palace, she really beats people to death, who dares to say anything?" The crux of the problem is also here, since Empress Wei is covering the sky with one hand in the palace, why do you need such a tiger and wolf medicine? Unless...... The people she has to deal with are even jealous of herself. This person...... There is only one in the palace. β
Qin Shaoyou said: "Son of Heaven? β
Speaking of the Son of Heaven, Shangguanchen is full of feelings, thinking that at the beginning, he and Li Xian played well, since Li Xian became the Son of Heaven, there has been no contact, and he only has sighs in his heart, which is very complicated.
Qin Shaoyou's mind was spinning rapidly, something was wrong.
The Son of Heaven is simply their artifact to the Wei family, and Li Xian is almost in the hands of the Wei family. It is precisely because of Li Xian's obedience that the Wei family can be so rampant, of course, if there is no Qin Shaoyou, the Wei family will appoint a private person like this and get rid of Li Xian, it is not impossible, because the Wei family has already replaced most of the people inside and outside the court with their cronies and protΓ©gΓ©s, and Li Xian died. Webster can be the second Wu Zetian.
It's just a pity...... Outside this court, there is also an emperor, and there is also a Qin Shaoyou and the Shence Army, as soon as Li Xian dies, as long as Wei dares to usurp the throne, Qin Shaoyou doesn't mind at all, and with the emperor's edict, he begs the thief on behalf of the sky, at that time. The people of the world are afraid that they are extremely disgusted with Webster, and they can be said to have responded to the mandate of heaven and obeyed the will of the people, and killed Webster. It's not that hard.
It is precisely because of this that the current Wei can barely stabilize the imperial court is only because there is a Li Xian. If something went wrong with Li Xian, they could certainly push Webster's son to be the Son of Heaven, but after all, ...... This child. What difference can there be from Li Xian, killing Li Xian, isn't this an extra move?
So...... What exactly do they want to do?
Shangguan Chen glanced at Qin Shaoyou deeply and said, "Your Highness, don't forget, this medicine can make people weak and sick. β
Be ill......
All of a sudden, Qin Shaoyou understood.
If after some time, Li Xian is sick, what will happen next?
Maybe...... A sick Li Xian has great benefits for Webster, and this benefit ......
Qin Shaoyou squinted, guessing something, and finally he pondered for a moment and said, "If at this time, the sick Son of Heaven wants to see this king, does this king have to go?" β
There is only this one possibility, and other than that, Qin Shaoyou can't think of any possibility.
Thinking of this, Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but sneer, Wei really couldn't wait, maybe she had already felt that the biggest threat was herself, so in order to get rid of herself, she didn't even hesitate to use any kind of means.
The sick Son of Heaven wants to see any courtier, how dare this courtier delay, to say something ugly, I am afraid that even if he is dying, he will have to rush to Chang'an obediently.
As long as Qin Shaoyou goes to Chang'an, then what happens next can be predicted by almost everyone.
"Your Highness, you have to plan early, if the lower official's guess is good, Your Majesty's illness, I am afraid that it will come within ten days and a half months, and by then, ......" Shangguan Chen looked at Qin Shaoyou with great concern, and said slowly.
Qin Shaoyou nodded and said, "Naturally, you should be careful." β
Shangguan Chen smiled: "Actually...... The lower official wants to congratulate His Highness. β
Qin Shaoyou was stunned and said, "Where does the joy come from?" β
Shangguan Chen said: "Then Wei regards His Royal Highness as a thorn in his side, and even does not hesitate to use such a method to deal with His Highness, doesn't this just prove that Wei has nothing to do with His Highness, then Wei is the mother of the dynasty, almost in charge of the military and politics of the world, such a person wants to deal with His Royal Highness and has to make such a decision, it can be seen that she is at the end of the road, is it ...... Isn't that a great joy? β
Qin Shaoyou was still worried, but when he heard Shangguan Chen's words, he couldn't help laughing, this guy ...... I'm really good at treating funerals as happy events.
However, he can appreciate Shangguan Chen's kindness, Shangguan Chen is nothing more than to make himself feel more comfortable, Qin Shaoyou nodded, and said: "In that case, why don't you invite this king to go to Zhu Lou to drink a few glasses of wine, it seems that you haven't drunk enough in the palace today, why don't we fight again in Zhu Lou, how about it?" β
Shangguan Chen cheered up and said, "I'm afraid that His Highness won't be able to bear it." β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Qin Shaoyou rarely came to Zhu Lou, but he knew that the magnificence here was a bit excessive, maybe because he had too many things on his mind, so he didn't like such a place, or maybe he had become the support of too many people and had too many responsibilities, so he didn't have the heart to enjoy this luxury.
But today, Qin Shaoyou appeared here, looking at everything here, he could always have some illusions, feeling that his Shence Mansion, his own public house, and even his own Wei Wangfu seemed to be two completely different worlds from this Zhu Lou.
The guy surnamed Shangguan is really fucking extravagant.
Qin Shaoyou has become the master of the small hall, and Shangguan Chen can only sit with him on the side, the maids with good faces serve wine, Shangguan Chen knows that Qin Shaoyou likes to drink quietly, so he retreated those Yingying Yanyan, he smiled and said, "Your Highness seems to have an idea?" β
Qin Shaoyou was stunned and said, "Idea, what idea?" β
Shangguan Chen laughed: "Since His Highness has learned of Wei's conspiracy, he should naturally have a way to deal with it." β
Speaking of this, Qin Shaoyou just smiled and said, "How to deal with it...... Not for the time being, but as you said, it seems that Webster has nothing to do, so this is the decision, in this case, why should this king worry? (To be continued.) )
