Chapter 303: Restlessness in the Jingshi (1)
The front is tight, the rear is tight, it is basically a scene of the Chinese dynasties, all the time, this is not, although the outside of the border is in full swing, but for the people in the Beijing Division, even the slightest sense of tension is not enough, what to do, listen to the song, dance to enjoy, polo is still very pleasant, at most after the wine and food are full, take the outside world as a talking point, or even make a bet or something, not many people will really take this matter to heart, of course, there will still be a few words that are not painful to talk about between the courtsAlthough the war outside the left and right does not rely on the support of the military department and the household department, it is also a national war, and if it is defeated, it will be detrimental to the national body after all, and the courtiers still have to do it to show their concern, but the people who hope that Li Zhen will lose completely are far more old and young than those who hope that Li Zhen will win, but unfortunately these people are destined to be disappointed.
On the 22nd day of July in the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, three o'clock in the unitary hour, it has come to the time of sunset, the afterglow of the setting sun dyes the small half of the sky into a piece of red, the sunset is in full swing, the smoke of the Miao Miao in the city of Chang'an rises one after another, and drifts away with the breeze, the ethereal is like the heaven and the earth are connected into one, because the dinner time is approaching, the streets and alleys are scarce, even if there are, they are all people who are in a hurry to return home, the original bustling Chang'an City is particularly empty at this time, as for the city gate is even more deserted, Except for a few gatekeepers, there was not even a single pedestrian, and even those soldiers were just yawning boredly, waiting for the arrival of the gate gate, and they were not even interested in talking to each other, but when a flying horse galloped from a distance, the idle doormen were all alarmed, and they all raised their necks, stood on tiptoe, and looked nervously at the men and horses rushing in the smoke and dust.
Laiqi rushed extremely fiercely, and arrived at the city gate in an instant, and immediately shouted: "Good news, good news, great victory in Anxi, destroy the Three Kingdoms, and capture countless lives." The post guard roared and rushed into the city, shouting all the way along the West Street to the location of the military headquarters, and the passionate voice rippled in Chang'an City, provoking countless citizens to poke their heads out of the doors and windows, and listen to the good news from outside the city.
"Lord Yue is amazing, it's this." Men Dingjia gave a thumbs up and praised with admiration on his face.
"Aren't you talking nonsense? I didn't see who the disciple of Yue Wang Ye was, but it was the height of our Tang Dynasty Li Junshen and Qin Erye, can it not be powerful? Mending Yi said with a smile.
"That's, that's, I'll tell you, hehe, it's rumored that His Royal Highness the King of Yue in Datang is a general born of thunder, the only one in the Tang Dynasty, that is the star of the earth, how can it be compared to mortals." Men Ding Bing came over and whispered mysteriously: "Tsk, if we can follow Prince Yue, then don't mention how refreshing, if you want me to say, these princes are not as good as a little thumb of Prince Yue." ”
"Cut, just your dog-like dog, how can you get into the eyes of Lord Yue, and dream while dying." Men Ding Jia pushed Men Ding Bing and said disdainfully.
"That's it, that's it, hehe, our Datang has the prince of Yue, then the country will be very stable, if the prince of Yue can return to Beijing, it would be good." Men Ding Yi looked fascinated and interjected with a smacking mouth.
"Hey, hey, hey, you guys, are you impatient? Are you also allowed to discuss the affairs of the court? Don't hurry up and stand up yet. A petty officer in the captain's costume saw that the more the men talked together, the more outrageous they became, and hurriedly stood up and interrupted the men's nonsense.
"Head, don't scare me and wait, let's have a big soldier, it's just nonsense, don't take it seriously, hehe, don't mind." As soon as he saw that his boss had spoken, Mending Jia hurriedly leaned over flatteringly, and said with a smile: "Boss, according to you, Prince Yue has made a great contribution this time, and this reward must be indispensable, right?" ”
Wu Chang didn't want to say more, but when he saw that all the men were looking at him, he suddenly had a sense of accomplishment that attracted attention, looked left and right, and saw no one around, so he lowered his voice and said: "There may not be a reward, I am only afraid that there will be a lot of disasters, alas, the prince Yue has done a good job, can others be happy?" Wait and see, this Jingshi, there is another good show to watch. ”
"Ah, no, such a great merit is not rewarded, so who is willing to fight, there is no reason." Mending Yi shook his head disapprovingly and said.
Wu Chang sneered and said: "Cut, you don't know this, this is called the court bureau, do you understand the court bureau?" It's also in vain to talk to you, an illiterate guy, yes, fucking take care of your mouth, don't look for death, turn around and get a military stick, don't blame my brother for not reminding you to wait, stand guard. ”
The military stick is obviously something that no one wants to suffer, and seeing that his boss has already said everything about this, no one dares to talk nonsense anymore, and they each return to their places, and continue to yawn boredly......
When the time is right, the sky has completely darkened, it is the time when the lights are on at the beginning of the day, the lights of the city are gradually brightened into a bright piece, the people after the meal have started the best life in the summer, the night market, the song house wine shop is very lively, the pedestrians on the street are shoulder to shoulder, compared to the daytime but more bustling on the point, the good news from outside the Saiwai at sunset has become the latest talk of the people without exception, no matter where you go you can hear the exciting voice of discussion, the prestige of Li Zhenzhi, the king of Yue, has undoubtedly become the center of public opinion, It can be said that it is everywhere, from officialdom to the people, however, all this does not seem to affect the tranquility of the Yue Wangfu, whether it is in the palace or in front of the door, all quiet, only a few porters stand silently under the lanterns swaying in the wind, there is no difference from the past, even the crisp sound of horses' hooves when a carriage drives into the alley in front of the palace has not broken the tranquility of the Yue Wangfu.
The carriage is not luxurious, nor spacious, it is just a car pulled by two horses, in a prosperous place such as Beijing, it seems that there are more such carriages, there is no slightest surprise, and the identity and status of the characters in the car cannot be seen from the carriage, the only thing that is reasonable is that this carriage walks very steadily, once it stops, it does not go forward or backward, just in front of the steps of the summer gate. When the curtain of the door was lifted, a middle-aged man of medium stature walked out of the carriage, and it was Li Qianhe, the servant of the court department.
The official eunuchs of the Beijing division gathered, and the high-ranking officials and dignitaries abounded, however, no matter how it is calculated, Li Qianhe is definitely the number one person in the Beijing division, however, the porters in front of the Yue Wangfu did not show much enthusiasm, there was no extra greeting, and there was not even politeness, but one of the porters stepped forward and whispered: "Li Shilang, Mr. is waiting in the inner study, please inside." ”
This sentence is very ordinary, ordinary to the point of being bland, but it is like thunder in Li Qianhe's ears, which makes him shudder uncontrollably, and his originally calm face showed a trace of excited redness, and there was a faint wave of light flashing in his eyes, but Li Qianhe was not an ordinary person after all, so he quickly stabilized his mind, nodded indifferently, smiled slightly, and did not speak, just made a gesture of please, flicked his wide sleeves, and followed Shi Shiran behind the gatekeeper into the gate of Yue Wang's Mansion.
Agitated? No, it's very exciting! Although Li Qianhe's face is calm, but the brisk walking shows the excitement in his heart, it is no wonder that he is so attractive, three years, three years before and after, since he entered the Yue Wangfu for the long history, it has been three years, and today he can finally enter the inner study, this is a great thing, at least for the current Li Qianhe, not to mention the past, even if he was still in front of the Yue Wangfu when he was not qualified to enter the inner study, however, at this time, All this will be a thing of the past, how can Li Qianhe not be excited - being able to walk into the inner study is not only a confirmation of status, but also a symbol of trust, which means one thing, a very important thing for Li Qianhe - from today on, he Li Qianhe is one of the core high-level leaders of the Yue Wangfu family, for people with lofty ambitions like Li Qianhe, it means that in the near future, he will have a broad space to display his ambitions, how can he not be excited?
The sound of the piano sounded elegantly, a song "Mountains and Flowing Water" was gently rippling in the backyard of the Yue Wang's Mansion like a hollow valley and a quiet spring, and the soft tune was full of light and elegant meaning, which made people listen to a feeling of dust, Rao is Li Qianhe's mood was agitated at this time, and he was washed by the sound of the piano, but it was also like a kind of gorgeous spring day in the green mountains and green waters, and the comfortable feeling of lingering in the green mountains and green waters slowly flowed through the heart, and the heart that was beating sharply gradually calmed down.
Li Qianhe did not rush into the study, but stood quietly outside the door, until the end of the piano music diffused in the air, then he took a deep breath, smiled indifferently, and slowly walked into the room, and Nalong's gentle smile was in his eyes.
"Mr. Na is so Yaxing, just need the red sleeves to add fragrance." Li Qianhe's official residence is a dignified and upright member of the court on the fourth grade, in terms of official rank, compared to the prince's palace Sima from the fourth rank hanging on Nalong's body, it is three levels higher, however, Li Qianhe knows Nalong's status in the heart of Li Zhen, the king of Yue, and he doesn't dare to take the shelf at all, and he takes the lead in giving his hand as a courtesy with a smile.
"Brother Yanting said that he laughed, this is just playing the piano indiscriminately, and it is really not elegant, which makes Brother Ren laugh." Nalong got up with a smile, took a step forward, bowed his hand and returned the salute, then flicked his sleeves and said, "Please." Li Qianhe was let into the study, the guests and hosts sat down, and several scholars served freshly brewed fragrant tea, and each retreated, leaving only Na Long and Li Qianhe sitting opposite each other in the study.
Na Long picked up the tea bowl, signaled to Li Qianhe, blew on the tea bowl, took a small sip, and then said with a flat face: "Brother Yanting has heard about the great victory in the Western Regions?" ”
Li Qianhe had already guessed the meaning of Nalong's invitation before coming to the Yue Palace, and at this time, he heard Nalong ask about it, but he didn't pretend to be reserved, he also took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "Today's good news to Beijing, a certain has learned the news of the approximation, with His Royal Highness's great talent, it is really common to have such a big victory, if His Royal Highness is not victorious, it is a strange thing." At this point, he paused for a moment, and then continued: "The big victory is gratifying, and expanding the land for thousands of miles is also a miracle in the world, but the situation in Beijing is likely to be chaotic, and it is necessary to prevent villains from taking advantage of the opportunity to make trouble." ”
"Hmm." Na Long is naturally well aware of the situation he is about to face, and he also knows that Li Qianhe is a shrewd person, and he did not have the slightest surprise that he could see through it, so he nodded lightly and said: "Your Highness is desperate in front, and I will have to wait for the family and nursing home in the back, what is Brother Yanting's judgment on the situation, please speak up." ”
When it came to business, Li Qianhe's face immediately became serious, he didn't dare to talk casually on such a big thing, after pondering for a while, he said solemnly: "At present, the court situation seems to be stable, but in fact, the dark tide is turbulent, from the overall situation, the prince has been in the position of the East Palace for several months, with the assistance of Xiao Zhongshu and the eldest grandson Situ, he connected three excerpts, namely "Persuading Nongsang", "Encouraging Students" and "Law Shu", these three folds are quite sacred, and they are also desirable, but these three articles are not from his hands, The first two are the handwriting of Xiao Zhongshu, and the latter is the style of the eldest grandson Situ, on the bright side, the prince can get the love of Xiao and the eldest grandson, and he should be able to sit firmly in the position of the East Palace, but in fact, Xiao and the eldest grandson have always been at odds, although this time the prince reluctantly stood together, there will be contradictions after a long time, if it is not bad, it should be the situation of the eldest grandson winning and Xiao defeating, and there may be a place to start; Secondly, the people of Wu and Wei have been very close these days, and they have always joined hands with each other in the court, and there are many places to curb the East Palace, and the two kings are working hard in the fiefdom, and they have done some political achievements to win the hearts of the people, and the reputation of the court and the opposition is gradually rising, and its momentum cannot be underestimated, however, although the two kings have a good name, but they are far less than the prestige of His Royal Highness the King of Yue, and their hearts will be unwilling. Even if it can't erase His Royal Highness's great achievements, there is also the possibility of change, and I am afraid that I can't deal with it unless I am careful. ”
Li Qianhe's analysis can be regarded as decent, although it is not in the middle, but it is not too far away, Na Long, who is in charge of the power of the "Rising Sun", knows it in his heart, however, this time he invited Li Qianhe to come here, but it is not to listen to his analysis of the court situation, therefore, as soon as Li Qianhe's voice fell, Na Long nodded with a smile and said: "Good, Brother Yanting can have this understanding, which shows that there is a splendid chest, His Royal Highness said that Brother Tai is a person who can support big things, believe it!" ”
Rao is Li Qianhe has been in the sea for a long time, but at first glance, when he heard that Li Zhen had such a high evaluation of himself, he was not only excited, he was almost out of breath, and said with a red face: "Mr. Na has an overreputation, this is just a scholar's opinion, laughing at the Fang family, ashamed, ashamed, I don't know what arrangements His Royal Highness has for the court bureau, and he needs to make a certain contribution, sir, but please command." ”
Regarding Li Qianhe's statement, Na Long paid attention to it, nodded and said: "Your Highness knows that there may be changes in Beijing, and there are two words, one is 'stable', and the other is 'intermediate'. ”
"Oh?" Li Qianhe's face turned pale, and he immediately fell into contemplation - don't look at such simple two words, but they contain a lot of meanings, it is not easy to really do it, I don't know how many difficulties and obstacles there are, one is not careful, and now the good situation is only afraid that I have to make wedding clothes for others.
"Six states and thirty counties, with a population of 1.3 million, this is not child's play, if someone starts here, I am afraid it will be difficult to prevent it." Li Qianhe frowned and thought for a long time before he said hesitantly.
According to the Tang system, the prince can serve as the governor of the capital, but it is just a false title, and he can't really control one party, in fact, as a prince, he can only get a history of Shangzhou at most, and a Shangzhou is at most a state and five counties, with a population of only more than 40,000 households, never more than 70,000 households, and according to a family of four, the maximum is less than 300,000 people, but Li Zhen, the prince, is a veritable governor of Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, not to mention the population of the place under his jurisdiction, If it is in terms of territory, it is equivalent to more than twenty Shangzhou, and moreover, in terms of Li Zhen's absolute control over Anxi at present, it is not too much to call it an independent small kingdom, as if this kind of huge force that has a faint tendency to be independent of the imperial court, not to mention the courtiers' meetings, I am afraid that a generation of emperor Li Shimin may make a muttering in his heart, Li Zhen is not only brave and good at fighting, but also the richest man in the Tang Dynasty, these factors are superimposed, and it is really shocking.
Na Long did not deny Li Qianhe's words, but shook his head with a wry smile and said: "The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, it is really annoying, the three of them become tigers, the ancients are honest and I do not deceive, and it is only His Highness that such outstanding people dare to do such extraordinary things!" After Na Long sighed, he lowered his voice and said: "This matter is important, there is no room for mistakes, the matter of public opinion has its own plan, Brother Yan Ting does not need to worry too much, but the move of the court still needs to be bothered by Brother Ren, when it is so ......, can Brother Ren have any questions?" ”
After listening to Na Long's words, Li Qianhe's face changed, but he didn't dare to accept it immediately, frowned, and after thinking about it carefully, he said: "Well, since it is ordered by His Royal Highness, it is not too early to do it, the day after tomorrow is the morning hour, and a certain still needs to plan one or two, and he will leave." ”
"Precious." Seeing that Li Qianhe was leaving, Na Long didn't say anything to stay, got up, and sent Li Qianhe to the door of the backyard, and then returned to the study with a slightly heavy footsteps, stood in front of the windowsill with a heavy mind, and silently stared at the bright moon in the sky......
