Chapter 14: Appearance and Honesty
Chapter 14 Appearance of Faithfulness and Adultery
Yuanshou wanted to deal with Yang Yuanqing, but it was not directly related to Yang Yuanqing's wife getting the order from Yipin, but Yuanshou's normal plan implementation. Templars,
At this time, he has already sat firmly in the position of the internal history order, the saint also trusts him, and the clan brother Yuan Hongji is even more trusted, his eldest son Yuan Shangwu is promoted from a palace guard to the general of the left prison guard, and is crowned as the prince of Changshan County, although this is because of the fornication between the king of Qi and his wife, which makes the saint guilty of him, but in any case, the Yuan family has begun to enter an upward channel, it is in this way, Yuan Shou thinks that the time is ripe to attack Yang Yuanqing.
At this time, four years have passed since Yuan Min was killed, and half a year has passed since his nephew Yuan Shangying was killed, and Yuan Shou's hatred for Yang Yuanqing has already taken root in his heart and grown into a towering tree.
Zhang Jin next to him is currently the general of Zuotunwei and the secretary of the Criminal Department, he is the former cabinet minister, he is cautious, good at judging the situation, he has a very good relationship with Yuanshou, and he is also very clear about the truth of He Ruobi's case.
Yuanshou wants to deal with Yang Yuanqing, from Zhang Jin's personal feelings, he agrees, and Yang Yuanqing is the vanguard of the current emperor to deal with the Guanlong forces, and eradicating him is also a rebellion of the Guanlong forces against the current emperor.
Zhang Jin also realized that the Guanlong forces had been gradually broken by the emperor and began to become a plate of scattered sand, if he could reunite the Guanlong nobles by dealing with Yang Yuanqing, it would not necessarily be a bad thing, since the Yuan family was willing to pick this head, he also expressed strong support.
"To deal with Yang Yuanqing, we can't go back the old way, we have to learn the lessons of He Ruobi, Yu Wenshu and King Qi, even including Yu Shiji's failure, Yang Yuanqing is very good at taking advantage of some emergencies, or grasping the weakness of the opponent, and then winning through some conspiracies, this time to deal with Yang Yuanqing, we must have a combination of light and dark, the clear thing is to impeach him for killing Yuan Shangying without permission, accusing him of not being qualified to get the general doctor to dismiss the official, is to let the saint understand that we are dealing with Yang Yuanqing, not to give Yang Yuanqing the opportunity to conspire, The dark one is operating behind the scenes, our Guanlong Group has absolute strength, and it will not be impossible to deal with a small General Zuo Xiaowei. ”
"I understand what Zhang Gong means."
Yuanshou nodded, "This time we have to be patient, we can't be in a hurry, step by step, slowly forcing Yang Yuanqing into a corner, and this time it's not just as simple as dealing with Yang Yuanqing, but also the Pei family, and even the Cui family and the Wang family, I understand these in my heart, to put it seriously, this time is likely to be a struggle between the Guanlong forces and the northern Shi clan, we must not take it lightly, the key is that the Guanlong family itself must be united, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I will go to visit Dugu Guzhen, as well as Li Yuan, I also decided to reconcile with him, so that Guan Long's Li clan and Dou's clan can be pulled over, as well as Yu Zhongwen and Yu Wenshu, and I even want to bring in Yang Xiong, the king of Ande, who has a bad relationship with Yang Su, and should be able to help us behind our backs....."
Zhang Jin also said with a smile: "If the Pei brothers can be brought down, I think Yu Shiji and Zhou Fashang, the southern family, will also be happy to see it." ,”
The two glanced at each other and laughed at the same time, and at this time, Yuan Min's voice came from outside the door, "Father, Young Eunuch Li is here!" ”
"Please come in!"
The door opened, Li Yuan walked in quickly, and said with a smile: "Li Yuan took the liberty to disturb, it turns out that Zhang Shangshu is also there, fortunately!" Fortunately! ”
"Young Eunuch Li, please take a seat." Yuan Shou is very polite today, and his smile is very sincere, and he is no longer as cold as before.
He has decided to reconcile with Li Yuan, this kind of reconciliation is not called reconciliation if it is not necessarily spoken, but through the expression language such as tone and attitude, both parties can easily understand, and they will not deliberately say it again, which will be embarrassing.
Yuan Shou's attitude made Li Yuan's heart feel a burst of relief, this contradiction that had been entangled in his heart for nearly half a year was finally about to be resolved, he sat down, tried his best to show a low profile, and smiled cautiously: "Yuan Neishi is looking for Li Yuan, what can I do to serve Yuan Neishi?" ”
Yuanshou has a psychological advantage over Li Yuan, and he doesn't need to be tactful, he goes straight to the point: "Our Guanlong forces plan to jointly deal with Yang Yuanqing, so we invite Young Eunuch Li to discuss together." ”
Li Yuan was taken aback, the Guanlong forces united to deal with Yang Yuanqing, this hat may not be too big, but he did not hesitate, and immediately said: "Since it is the alliance of the Guanlong forces, Li Yuan is naturally willing to serve." (,)”
Yuanshou didn't give Li Yuan a chance to hesitate, and smiled slightly, "I know that Young Eunuch Li is very close to Yang Yuanqing because of Eldest Sun Sheng, and Young Eunuch Li should be familiar with him, so tell me, how should we deal with him?" Or what to pay attention to? ”
Li Yuan didn't expect Yuan Shou to ask so directly, so that he had no room for maneuver at all, he smiled bitterly and said, "This.... Can you let Li Yuan think about it. ”
Li Yuan is only forty-two years old this year, and Yuanshou and Zhang Jin are both in their sixties, although they are the same generation, but the gap in age and official position makes Li Yuan in a weak position in front of them, and in the Guanlong Group, Li Yuan's family is an inconspicuous little character regardless of economic strength and officialdom background, and it is precisely because of this that Yang Guang did not put Li Yuan in his eyes.
Zhang Jin smiled: "Let's talk about it casually first, don't be in a hurry to decide anything now?" We're just referring to one or two. ”
Yuan Shou and Zhang Jin's intention is obvious, that is, to force Li Yuan to make a statement, this statement is not to say 'I am willing to serve' and other empty words, but Li Yuan must come up with a substantive plan and participate in this matter, this is his sincerity in reconciling with the Yuan family.
Li Yuan also understood their intentions, sighed secretly in his heart, and said helplessly: "In my opinion, Yang Yuanqing has a weakness, but also a strength, we must pay attention. ”
Yuan Shou and Zhang Jin glanced at each other and said in unison: "Please say in detail!" ”
Li Yuan pondered for a while, and said slowly: "Yang Yuanqing's weakness is his family, the Yang family, whether he wants it or not, after all, he is from the Hongnong Yang family, he doesn't dare to do too much, and his strength is Princess Leping, this is his biggest backer....."
......
Li Yuan said goodbye and left, and Yuan Shou asked Zhang Jin with a smile, "What do you think of this person?" ”
Zhang Jin sneered, "This person is pretending to be confused!" ”
"Oh! What do you mean by that? Yuan Shou asked puzzled.
"It's very simple, he has obviously proposed to use Yang Yuanqing's wife Pei's edict to make a fuss, but he avoided the Pei family and deliberately narrowed the scope of this matter, isn't it that he is pretending to be confused?"
Yuan Shou nodded, "I have already seen that this person seems to be loyal, but in fact he is cunning, he can be used for this person, but he cannot be trusted." ”
"However, Yang Yuanqing's wife's fate, it can indeed be used to make a fuss."
......
Generally speaking, Li Yuan would take his eldest son Jiancheng with him when he visited some important officials, but today Li Jiancheng's son was a little sick, and he had to accompany the doctor to see a doctor, so he did not accompany his father to the Yuan family.
Hearing that his father had returned home, Li Jiancheng hurriedly walked to his father's study, walked to the door, and happened to meet his father's concubine Wan, who also followed Li Yuan for many years and gave birth to a son Li Zhiyun for Li Yuan, who is six years old this year and is Li Yuan's fifth son.
As soon as Wan Shi came out of the tea, he looked up and saw Jiancheng coming in a hurry, and hurriedly said, "Shhh He whispered, "Your father is in a bad mood, so be careful when you speak." ”
Jiancheng nodded and knocked on the door, "Father, it's me!" ”
"Come in!" In the study, Li Yuan sighed obviously.
Jiancheng walked into the study and saw his father standing in front of the window with his hands in his hands, looking out of the window worriedly.
"Father, what's wrong?"
Li Yuan smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Yuanshou and Zhang Jin want to deal with Yang Yuanqing and pull me in." ”
Jiancheng was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Father, Yang Yuanqing is the son-in-law of the Pei family, haven't they thought about it?" ”
"They thought it through, and asked me for advice, and when it was winter, they came to such a troublesome thing."
Li Yuan turned around and sat down distraught, "He also said that he would join forces with the entire Guanlong force to deal with Yang Yuanqing, but it is clear that this is a struggle for power in the cabinet, what does it have to do with me?" ”
Li Jiancheng pondered for a long time and said, "But the Holy Lord is originally prejudiced against the Guanlong forces and wants to suppress them, will they be burning themselves by doing this?" ”
Li Yuan shook his head, "Shengshang is not a big problem, he is the emperor after all, more to consider the balance of power, if he wants to suppress the Guanlong forces, he will use other ways, his ministers are infighting, he is the most welcome, I guess he will not interfere this time, he will sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight." ”
"Then does my father think our Li family should participate?"
Li Yuan trusted his eldest son the most, in front of his eldest son, he did not disguise himself, he sighed, and said frankly: "I'm not about participating or not, I want to think about it, if I participate, if I succeed, what benefits can I get?" And if I fail, what will happen to me, I have to weigh the pros and cons. ”
Li Jiancheng thought for a while and said: "If my father participates, it is very likely to become the knife of Yuanshou's attack, and then it will become Yuanshou's shield, and Yuanshou is likely to push our Li family to the front, let us fight with Yang Yuanqing, the child means that it is best for the father to leave temporarily and avoid this struggle." ”
Li Yuan took a few steps behind his back, his eyes slowly narrowed, and he said coldly: "Actually, this is also an opportunity, I really hope that they will have a vicious fight, only in the chaos, I have a chance to be promoted, Yuan Shou wants me to be a sword and shield, that is he dreaming." ”
Li Jiancheng pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "If my father wants them to fight viciously, then I have a plan to let Yang Yuanqing go directly to Yuanshou, I don't know where he is now?" ”
"I heard that he has taken tens of thousands of Turkic women and children to the east and has already arrived in Guanzhong, it is estimated that he will come over in advance, in two or three days! It's time for him to go to Beijing. ”
Li Yuan glanced at his son, "What plan do you have?" ”
Li Jiancheng smiled faintly: "It's a strategy that can't be put on the table." ”
