Yang Zhi explained that Zhao Dang was like an initiation, and he thought it was true.

But I still feel uneasy: this guy and I have met for the first time, and there is no friendship only in the past. What is the purpose of treating me with such a heart? …… What should we do with the network of forces that have been built over the past ten years and spent countless financial resources and manpower, and the forces that have been painstakingly managed and cannot be put on the table? Even if he believes that he is a selfless true gentleman, the precious brother of King Kang Zhao Dare may not want to do this!

Now that this guy has made it clear that there will be no second opportunity to talk like this today, he simply asked: "Brother Yang, the so-called heart of harming people must not be had, and the heart of preventing people must not be ......?" ”

Yang Zhiyuan didn't expect him to change his mind and be a good boy, so he waved his hand and interrupted: "Yang conspiracy is the main thing, and conspiracy is supplemented." There is light and dark, a combination of light and dark. Always remember to wipe your butt clean. ”

Zhao Dang missed the crown prince as early as sixteen years ago, and since then, he has been planning to turn the tables on the throne. If he hadn't underestimated Yang Zhi back then, how could he have left a handle? How did this happen? Although I was a little depressed in my heart, it was inconvenient to say it clearly, so I had to say yes.

Yang Zhi suddenly smiled and said: "I am grateful for the sincerity of the prince, I will buy one and get one free today, and give the prince a favor!" ”

How kind can you be? Zhao Dangying said: "Brother Yang, please tell me more about it." ”

Yang Zhi said with a smile: "The emperor summoned the prince and King Kang back to Beijing, he will definitely not let you come back to be idle, he will definitely find something for you to do." As I expected, the emperor will soon issue a decree to let the two princes enter the cabinet. Of course, it is not impossible to be on the side of the Gyeonggi Prefecture in the pastor.

"Oh? Cabinet? Or to be the governor of the state? What do you mean by that? ”

What do you think the emperor will let you do? Yang Zhi also didn't care whether Zhao Dang was really stupid or pretending to be confused: "There is a way that the palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are meat, and the two princes are the sons of the emperor, which is related to the inheritance of the country and the national fortunes of Great Xia, and the emperor has to carefully consider the heart, strength, vision, and ability of the two princes." ”

"The crown prince has been in charge of the emperor's center for many years, and he is already very familiar with the affairs of the six ministries and trivial civil affairs. Under the emperor's nose, the prince has always been very modest and diligent, and his ass is quite clean. To be honest, if it weren't for his own dizziness. The emperor wants to abolish the reserve and set up another one, but it is really difficult to find any justifiable reason. ”

"Not so with King Ning and King Kang. The two princes held heavy troops to conquer one side, and their achievements were outstanding. In order to be able to compete with the gentle and weak prince, the two princes secretly won the hearts of the people, snare their wings, and accumulate financial resources. Say something heartbreaking. If it is said that Xiangyang and Youzhou are three feet high under the rule of the two princes, it must not be regarded as wronging you, right? It is precisely because the emperor has never been very satisfied with the crown prince that he will indulge you intentionally or unintentionally. But the prince must not be lucky, thinking that the emperor has no idea about your family! ”

"As the king of a powerful country in troubled times, you must not only be able to fight the world. and will be able to rule the world. The two princes have passed the military affairs, but they are not good at civil affairs. The emperor wants to comprehensively consider, polish, and train the two princes, so he is naturally making a fuss about civil affairs and documents. ”

Zhao Dang nodded and said, "That's true." ”

Yang Zhi smiled: "That's why I have the opportunity to send this favor." - Lord, do you know why the emperor dared to suppress the Li family long before the fall of the crown prince, and this time he used the excuse to attack the Guo and Huang families? ”

Xia Li Wucheng's ten-year battle for the establishment of the prince, not so much that Zhao Dang lost to his eldest brother Zhao Heng, but rather that he lost to the old warrior clan in Jincheng and Guanzhong, how could Zhao Dang not know about this?

"That's because in recent years, my father has worked hard to govern the country, and his dependence on the wealthy families in Jincheng and Guanzhong has become less and less."

"Becoming less and less visible does not mean that we are completely free from dependence on them. The crown prince has been the prince for more than ten years, and the forces behind it will not collapse overnight. The wealthy families of Jincheng and Guanzhong have endured a hundred years of ups and downs. It was because of the attachment to the former dynasty in the early years, and then the connection with the Great Xia royal family. Now that the crown prince has fallen and turned over, there is no hope of turning over, and this force also needs to find another way. ”

"What does Brother Yang mean ......?" Zhao Dang's eyes lit up suddenly, and then he said gloomily: "The wealthy families of the two places have always regarded this king as the biggest threat to the position of the crown prince, how easy is it to ask them to support this king instead?" Can't they throw themselves into the third brother's door? ”

Yang Zhi sighed: "Lord Wang, you are a fan of the authorities!" Previously, since they regarded you as the biggest threat to the crown prince, it just shows that they think that the prince is superior in prestige and strength compared to King Kang. This matter is also related to the luck of the wealthy families in the two places in the next few decades, if it were you, would you put all your eggs in one basket? It stands to reason. I think the prince should be worried about another verse. ”

Zhao Dang was shocked: "Brother Yang is saying...... I'm afraid that the third brother will want to be in front and do it in front? ”

Yang Zhi smiled slyly: "This is what you said, Lord Wang." ”

"Now Huang Jixian, the head of the Huang family in Xianyang, and Guo Pei, the head of the Guo family in Jincheng, are still detained in prison, and the emperor has given them all uneasy duties, dissenting ambitions, and habitually colluding with the party of the abolished prince, secretly aiding Jin Silk and other trumped-up charges. However, the emperor has not arrested the two to Chang'an for questioning, and has not issued an edict on how to deal with them. I wonder if the prince has heard about it? Huang Jixian's brother Huang Jide and Guo Pei's son Guo Kai are like headless flies. I have been wandering around in Chang'an City for more than half a month. ”

Zhao Dang pondered and said: "Huang Guo's two rich families are naturally not short of silver. But now that the situation is unknown, who would dare to charge them a penny? Who has the courage to go to the emperor in front of his father and lobby for a lenient punishment for the two? ”

I've got it all to say, if you're really that imbecile in politics, you'd better die early, and still want to be emperor? It's just trying to lure me into finishing my sentence.

Yang Zhiyin smiled: "Lord Wang." There's no third person there, do you think it's fun to be stupid in front of me? ”

Zhao Dang's mind was broken by his merciless words, and his old face turned red, and he said: "Brother Yang, this king...... This one....... ”

Yang Zhi waved his hand generously and said, "Forget it, I won't worry about the prince." There is a way for a good person to do it to the end, so I will tell you everything! This matter will inevitably attract jealousy, and it will involve the prince's extreme sensitivity. Because of this, even if King Kang thought of it, he might not do it. In fact, as long as you think about the emperor's mind with your heart, this matter is not difficult at all. ”

"Who said the situation in the DPRK is unknown? Maintaining the stability of Great Xia, appeasing the people's hearts with light and meager endowments, and accumulating national strength are the first priorities of the emperor's future governance. I dare to say that during the emperor's lifetime, as long as the surrounding countries do not launch large-scale attacks, Great Xia will never take the initiative to provoke and seek war again. Great Xia has fought for so many years, although it has created a large territory, but it has also killed the poor. The treasury was already empty, and it was necessary to maintain the standing readiness of a million-strong army, and to implement a benevolent government that was light and light-hearted. ”

"Don't the Huang Guo family have silver? What the emperor lacked most in the next few years was silver. If it is just to warn the wealthy families in the two places, is it not enough to have the fall of the crown prince and the self-hanging of the queen? Why is it necessary to implicate the Huang and Guo families on trumped-up charges? After all, it's all about the silver! ”

When Zhao Dang heard this, his spine couldn't help but chill again: Today, I made a move in front of this guy for 1.1 million taels, which is absolutely impossible to hide from my father. My father tried his best to knock people out, I don't know how he would feel when he heard about it?

“…… After the prince entered the cabinet, he would act with several cabinet scholars. How to deal with Huang Guo's two family heads will naturally be included in the scope of acting. At that time, the prince can advise the emperor and treat the two lightly. The reason and motive can be calmly made up in advance. It is nothing more than that the emperor is lenient and benevolent, aiming to punish Yunyun a little. ”

Zhao Dangneng has today's fame and status, and he has a bit of talent for power and strategy, and he knows that it is futile to play with his heart in front of Yang Zhi, so he said: "The wealthy families in the two places have big roots and deep roots, so they should only be slowly plotted." This time it was enough for them to understand that the king meant to show goodwill. This king was not asked in advance, and he was not rewarded afterwards, but out of the heart of the Grand Duke for the country, his father and the ministers had nothing to say. As for how to punish it, it depends on how much appetite the father has. ”

Yang Zhi scolded in his heart: After going around such a big circle, do you think my favor is given away for free? If you don't get a middleman to do it, where will Lao Tzu go to make money?

"The prince is wise. It's just that this is a section on how to punish, and there is a little bit of elementary school questioning. You must know that the emperor wants money, and he can't lose face, and this matter can't be put on the table. I have no official position, I don't have so many taboos as the prince, the good people are made by the prince, and the wicked people are naturally my own. The prince is quite popular, and it must not be difficult to find a prince among the officials of the six ministries who is both trustworthy and familiar with the Huang Guo family. To tell you the truth, Huang Jide and Guo Kai have already hit the wooden clock twice in my house, so the prince might as well remind them to try it again in a few days. ”

Zhao Dangdang suddenly realized, it turned out that you wanted to rub the oil with your hands! Curiously asked, "This king can save it." I don't know how much Brother Yang wants to ask the two families? ”

Yang Zhi said with a smile: "The two crimes can be big or small, and they are both rich and powerful, and if they want too little, it will be too cheap for them, and the emperor can't afford to lose that person." I think it's okay for them to pay three or five million taels so-so. ”

Seeing that he was about to speak as easily as drinking porridge, Zhao Dang couldn't help but feel dizzy: One mouth is three or five million taels, probably at least one million taels will fall into your own pocket, right? Even if you are the Qin family, who is known as the richest man in Great Xia, I am afraid that making money is not as easy, so ruthless, and so fast as you!

was thinking with emotion, and unconsciously followed Yang Zhi back to the entrance of the Houfu Garden. Yang Zhi honestly and unceremoniously gave the order to evict the guests, and said with a smile: "The prince is not well greeted when he comes, and I hope to forgive my sins." I'm going to send the prince here? (To be continued.) )
