Chapter 165: Secret War

I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain. Yang Zhi, out of extreme disgust with the crown prince and his instinct to defend his own interests, tried to persuade the king of Yue to immediately stand out and deal with the current crisis in order to make his teacher famous.

Concubine Mei's conscious indifference made Yang Zhi suddenly wake up that he was obviously too impetuous.

>>Today's trip was not in vain, whether it was the queen or Concubine Mei, their attitudes in front of Yang Zhi were already very clear.

>> Yang Zhi can fully feel the queen's almost undisguised confidence and optimism.

The queen didn't underestimate him, but she also had good reason to believe that there was no need to take him too seriously.

>>Right now, you have no position or power, you only have the title of Marquis of Flying Tiger, and you don't even have the qualifications to discuss politics in the previous dynasty, let alone mobilize a soldier and a pawn, how much storm can you set off with the power of one person?

Even the blind could see that you had no intention of mixing in the contention.

It's good that you are not on the right path with the crown prince, but you are also on the wrong path with King Ning and King Kang!

The power of the Yue King on the opposite side of you is weak and almost negligible.

Even if you want to go against the crown prince, it will be difficult to find a name.

If a man pulls the flag and goes it alone, a traitor's hat can be buttoned down to make you the enemy of everyone!

The only thing that made the Prince Group a little jealous was the Imperial Gold Medal.

When it's really time to have no choice but to meet each other, you can be sure that it is your imitation of Xibei goods, what can you do with me?

Queen >> clearly promised to fulfill the marriage between Yang Zhi and Zhao Yan, which is equivalent to taking the initiative to extend an olive branch and using "judging the situation"

The four words exhaust all the mysteries: of course, it is best for you to work hard for the prince, not only wrote off the previous grievances with An Guihou, but also issued a check for the cap of the king with a different surname.

It doesn't matter if you don't want to sell your life, as long as you still watch from the wall, doing nothing is a success.

\\/\>> If the battle for the throne is compared to a commercial bidding, Concubine Mei knows very well that her son only occupies a useless place, and does not have half of the capital to participate in the bidding.

That quota was enough to ensure that his son would be rich for life, and the side with the highest call to win the bid was already ready to go.

Not only can it never compete with it, but it can never afford to offend.

Neither can we let our son, who is still in Chongling, stake his life on the line, and he can't do his best to win the bid, and he can't let his son be used by others to become another emperor of Han Xian!

>> Concubine Mei of course also knew the current situation of their mother and son.

In fact, orphans and widows are close at hand.

There is a way to make a wrong move, and you will lose all the games.

How can a person who has the courage to kill his father care about having the reputation of killing his brother again?

She admits that she can't afford to lose, so she makes up her mind that she can only respond to the changes with the same, and can only pretend that nothing has happened.

>>Absolute security requires absolute strength as a backing, and Concubine Mei doesn't understand this truth, but she has no choice.

Not only for now, unless a miracle happens.

Otherwise it will still be the case in the future.

The current Emperor Xia can tolerate a Fu King to be free so far, can the next Xia Emperor not tolerate a Yue King?

>> she had to take advantage of every opportunity she could to repeatedly show the forces that their mother and son had no ambitions.

It won't be a stumbling block in anyone's eyes.

In this sensitive period, a maverick and powerful monster like Yang Zhi is undoubtedly a sweet spot for all forces to compete with.

In Concubine Mei's eyes, she is no different from the plague god who avoids her.

>> Yang Zhi can conclude that Xu Wenhan must have touched a nose in front of King Yue today.

\///\\ After quickly understanding Concubine Mei's indifference, there is no need to lobby in vain, and it is only right to go to Xu's Mansion to catch up with dinner as soon as possible.

>> he didn't have a word to apologize for his mistakes from the queen, and there was no need to say anything fake polite in front of the cheap mother-in-law and brother-in-law: "Niangniang, prince, Weichen has brought the princess into the mansion overnight yesterday, and after consulting the princess's wishes, he has made a gift to his father and Humble Jing today." When Weichen met the queen in Jin, the queen had promised to complete this matter for Weichen and the princess. Please rest assured that the mother and the prince will not worry. Weichen will definitely not let down the princess. will not let her suffer a single grievance again. ”

>>If it weren't for Concubine Mei's acquiescence last night, Yang Zhi would never have taken Zhao Yan back to the house so smoothly.

Now it's just a catch-up formal greeting.

Yang Zhi's habitual indulgence of his old man and wife has already spread throughout the palace, and Yang's mansion is "neither up nor down, not big or small"

Everyone knows the relaxed atmosphere.

When the concubines and concubines are bored, they often talk about it.

On the surface, they all talk about it on the grounds of unorthodoxy, but in fact, they are extremely envious.

>> in the era of the supremacy of imperial power, he openly took a princess home without a name or a point, and only he Yang Zhi had the courage and courage.

Based on this, Concubine Mei had to secretly admire and admire it, and was sincerely relieved that her daughter could have such a home, and Zhao Qi also secretly gave Yang Zhi a thumbs up.

>> "Got it." ”

However, Concubine Mei was worried that she was not her daughter now, and said coldly: "Feihu Hou, this palace has heard a little about the family style in your mansion, and I believe you will not be wronged Yan'er." The wood is already in the boat, and the palace has nothing to say. \\/\ This matter is not glorious, the palace should be responsible for lax discipline, and there is no shame to plead with the emperor and the queen. If you can really get the queen's promise, it will be a blessing for you and Yan'er. Later, the palace prepared a heavy gift to visit the queen and thanked the queen for her kindness. But you must not be too happy, how this matter will be concluded in the end will be left to the Holy Judgment after the emperor returns to the court. ”

>> "Qi'er is still young, has always been lazy and stubborn, and has never been in charge of politics before. The so-called appointment of the prince of the prison country is just a false name. If you have anything to do with the important affairs of the military state, just report it to the four important ministers of the state. You have been ordered to go out of Beijing to inspect for several months, and you must have been physically and mentally exhausted. At present, it is only a few days before the end of the year, and everything in the palace is complicated, and you go to the palace to ask for a meeting, and the palace may not have this leisure today. You can spend the New Year at home with peace of mind! ”

>>It's okay, who wants to get to the queen's old lady to pretend to be a grandson?

Who the wants to come here to see your stinky face?

Are you happy to be Lao Tzu?

Concubine Mei didn't have a good face from beginning to end, neither gave a seat nor looked at tea, not only did she deliberately embarrass Yang Zhi in front of many eunuchs, maids and guards, but also sealed the door unequivocally.

This is obviously not for him to see or hear.

Yang Zhi didn't care either, and even Shengnuo quit the palace, and went straight to Xu's mansion on horseback.

>> Yang Zhi arrived at Xu's Mansion at the end of noon, and he was able to catch up with the meal.

Not only Xu Wenhan is looking forward to it, but Qin Kongyun is also present.

Yang Zhi's contact with the Qin clan has never been interrupted, and when he hurried back to Beijing, he changed horses at the Qin clan's branch along the way, and Qin Kongyun naturally knew his whereabouts well, so it was not strange to gather here.

\\ at this juncture.

Qin Kongyun is here, and it is no different from his son Qin Gong coming.

The three brothers have been friends for a long time, and they have already formed an indescribable tacit understanding with each other, hugging each other and smiling and sitting around the fireplace.

Talk while eating.

>> Qin Kongyun waved his hand and said, "Third brother, you and I haven't seen each other for a long time, I want to congratulate you today!" Not only did the younger siblings have the joy of incense, but they also got their wish on Penglai Dangji Island and hugged the beauty, and last night there was a snowstorm to welcome the beauty. The third brother steals incense and steals jade, and even the princess's pearl fetus is secretly knotted and has the courage to take responsibility. ”

>> Xu Wenhan smiled: "It's okay." As a result, the third brother suddenly appeared after being away from Beijing for several months. In the eyes of outsiders, there is a reason. ”

>> Yang Zhi's every move in Shandong did not deceive Qin Jiaoyang, the development of the Qin family's intelligence system is unparalleled in the world, Qin Kongyun and Xu Wenhan should have generally known about it, so naturally there is no need to elaborate at this moment.

only gave a general idea of the situation of entering the palace today to see the queen and Concubine Mei.

>> "I mostly do what I want, and I don't pay much attention to what other people think. The world is just saying that I am unruly, disregarding etiquette and daring, and what good reputation will I fall? Shandong's affairs are related to the great plan of living and living in the future. is only a small eyebrow, and leaving it all behind at this moment is like being robbed by robbers in the cave room on a candle night, which really makes me panic. Less than a day after I returned to Beijing, I felt that the prince's attempt to rebel was as slippery as a greased egg, and it was impossible to grasp it. If you step on the empty side, Daxia is afraid that it will be difficult for you and my brothers to gain a foothold, and everything can only be done all over again. ”

>> from the heart, the so-called concept of the integration of the family, the country, the world, the monarch and the minister, in Yang Zhi's heart, is at least eighty times more indifferent than Xu Wenhan and Qin Kongyun.

\///\\ Who will be the Emperor of Great Xia in the future.

It's really far less than theirs.

If the three pirates are integrated into a monolithic plate in Shandong, tens of millions of taels of silver have already been scooped up.

As long as he does one of them, will he be in a hurry?

The problem is that none of them have been settled now.

It is not so much that Xu Wenhan was urgently recalled to Beijing in order to thwart the conspiracy of the prince.

It's better that he's trying to buy himself enough time.

>> there was a lot of depression in his words, Xu Wenhan was shocked when he heard it: "The husband is in the world, he must do something, and he is indomitable but it is a normal thing!" ”

>> Yang Zhi smiled and said: "Big brother, relax, I am a stubborn donkey temper who is not dead in the heart of the Yellow River, and it is not a boast to say that I will never say anything." It's rare for the eldest brother to be so emotional, he must have eaten deflated at King Yue today, right? ”

>> "King Yue didn't even give me a chance to eat deflated. ”

Xu Wenhan replied dejectedly: "I thought about it a little after you left in the snowstorm last night, King Yue, as the prince of the prison state, should be in charge of major affairs and all military newspapers in front of the court, and he needs to be presented to read every day. If he is really young and old, he will know the current situation, and I don't need to find out to him. If he is ignorant, it is useless for me to provoke him. I went to the court half an hour early today, and I wanted to block him in the court room with the intention of testing him first. ”

>>Before I could speak, King Yue took the initiative to say: Xu Xiang, did you sleep well last night?" The New Year is approaching, the wind and snow are pervasive, and the father and emperor are sick again, so it is not strange that he cannot return to Beijing for the New Year. In addition to sincerely praying for our fathers and emperors, you and I can only fulfill our responsibilities and abide by our duties with all our hearts, which is the way to serve our ministers and sons. What does Xu Xiang think? -- These are his exact words, and you dare to say that there is something he does not understand. You must know that when there is no one in private on weekdays, King Yue always calls me Mr., but today he has a Xu Xiang, what else do I have to say? ”

>> Qin Kongyun said with a straight face: "The eldest brother doesn't need to be upset, and the third brother doesn't need to be discouraged. My father's old illness relapsed due to the cold, but even though he was sick, he still taught me day after day. My father ordered me to tell you that this matter was extremely dangerous and there were too many unknowable variables. If Concubine Mei and King Yue have no intention of competing for the throne, it would be too innocent to force him to enter the game. Even if we have the heart to support the king of Yue, we should also put aside their relationship with him on the surface for protection, and beware of being affected by it in case of failure. Regardless of success or failure, it is best not to let King Yue get involved! My father asserted that if King Yue had the fortune of an emperor, his will would be difficult for us to control, but he would definitely cooperate with you and me within the scope of his ability. We don't need to worry about the unknown teacher, we can just be loyal to the emperor's heart. ”

>> Yang Zhi smiled bitterly: "In other words, our defeat has nothing to do with that kid, and if we win, he will just wait to go down the mountain to pick peaches!" Since ancient times, risk and profit have coexisted, this kid is good, he is expected to earn an emperor to do it without risk! ”

>> Xu Wenhan was silent for a long time, and sighed: "This is the so-called human monarch who is ordered by heaven. Qin Gong's thoughts are far-reaching, and it is fascinating! I just thought about it carefully, and King Yue really didn't have the ability to stand out from the crowd at this time. The biggest advantage of the crown prince is that he has occupied the throne, and once the emperor is mourned, it is logical for him to succeed to the throne. If we take the liberty of supporting the king of Yue and the crown prince to compete for the throne, how can we convince the people of the world? This is one of them. Second, the crown prince is well-planned, unless the emperor testifies in person, who dares to say that he killed his father and usurped the throne? What evidence do you and I have for all things that are unfounded? We are waiting for this, and so are King Ning and King Kang! Qin Gong Suoyun treats him with loyalty to the emperor, as long as he does not see the emperor's corpse with his own eyes, you and I can act without taboos" The prince did fully occupy the initiative, we didn't have to fight with him on the table, to put it bluntly, this is a secret war! Yang Zhi frowned and said: "It's not difficult to use what name, what matters is to have strength." We don't have anything, so can't we fight with the prince with our lives? Big brother, with Zhou Ting's sponsorship first, Wang Xiang and you have a recommendation again, and I will temporarily replace the general of the forbidden army, and the four important ministers of the prison state have already taken care of the third, Wei Su will not cover the sky with one hand, right? >> Xu Wenhan said hatefully: "I was about to talk to you about this!" It's not King Yue who makes me eat today, it's Wei Su! Judging by your military exploits and prestige, you are the best choice for the general of the Temporary Forbidden Army. Before General Chen stepped down as a lieutenant, he made this proposal to the emperor. Although Zhou Ting has never had anything to do with you, he thought he would not be able to afford it after he was poisoned a month ago, and he also secretly sponsored you, but he never saw the emperor's approval and return the chapter. I know today that the emperor had already approved Zhou Ting's recital during the imperial expedition, but it was detained by Wei Su in the name of his general charge of the country's military affairs! >> Yang Zhi asked, "Oh? What does the emperor's reply say? >> Xu Wenhan said with a bitter face: "The emperor's approval made the prince and I cry and laugh: Zhou Qing's position is irreplaceable, although he is seriously ill, everything in the army can be entrusted to him." Yang Zhineng is extraordinary, and he is an important weapon of the country, and he must not be used lightly. And Yang Zhishang is patrolling outside on my orders, and his task is no less difficult than opening up the territory and destroying the country, and he must not be disturbed! >> Yang Zhideng was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but secretly complain: The emperor is not an immortal, of course, he didn't expect that the chapter approved a month ago would do the prince a big favor. Does he need to speak so deadly? He didn't have the addiction to being in charge of military power, the emperor moved a stone and hit his own feet! >>
