Chapter 144: The Dark Tide is Surging (Part II)
Li Tai succinctly picked up the topic, and even said that Li Zhen would make a price, which couldn't help but make Li Zhen suspicious, not because Li Tai could find himself in Weifu so quickly - the "Ringing" in Li Tai's hand is not vegetarian, plus Li Zhen did not intend to hide deliberately, it is not difficult to do this with the ability of "Ringing"; Of course, it wasn't for Li Tai to shout out the words of "offer" so bluntly, this was the message that Li Zhen asked people to give to Li Tai at the beginning, but he didn't say much, what really made Li Zhen strange was why Li Tai wanted to pick such a time to talk about this matter, and he seemed so impatient, if there was no other change here, how could Li Zhen believe it, but at this moment Li Zhen had no way to guess what happened, and he couldn't even determine what went wrong.
Politicians are essentially businessmen, the two are fundamentally the same, and even the means are almost the same, nothing more than trading, compromise, selling these basic skills, if a really good politician goes to business, he will be able to become a smart businessman, and vice versa, this article, ancient and modern China and foreign are all the same, of course, there are not many people who can understand this truth, but Li Zhen has a number in his heart, in his opinion, politicians are just businessmen dressed in gorgeous clothes, transactions are commonplace, There's nothing to make a fuss about, but no matter what you take out to trade, if you don't receive the corresponding return, it's a loss-making business, and naturally you can't do it.
Quote? It's easy to say, but it's actually very difficult, the reason is very simple - Li Zhen wants a lot of things, not to mention the officials such as the state assassin at the bottom, that is, Li Zhen, the official of the criminal department controlled by Li Tai, also wants it, but if you want it, Li Tai will not give it is another matter, of course, the transaction is necessary, but how much you may get back depends on how to talk about it, now that the situation has changed, Li Zhen will naturally not easily open her own chassis when she does not figure out where the change is. At this time, seeing Li Tai's eyes staring at him like copper bells, Li Zhen's mind was spinning rapidly, but his face was calm, he took a sip of wine silently, and said with an indifferent smile: "What does the fourth brother want?" ”
Li Tai didn't expect Li Zhen to pretend to be stupid at this time, and was stunned for a moment, and then laughed wildly as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world, pointing at Li Zhen and saying: "Haha......, interesting, interesting, haha......, the eighth brother is really a wonderful person, what does the elder brother want, how can the eighth brother not know, anyway, if the elder brother wants to exchange it, as long as the elder brother has it, he will not lose the eighth brother." ”
Oh, when did this kid change his sex, he was so generous, damn, there must have been an accident in the palace, but what happened to make the fourth child so unbreathable? Li Zhen is more and more sure that something big has happened, one must be a major event related to the waste storage, but there is no relevant information at the moment, but it is impossible to determine the truth and fiction, for whether to trade with the fourth Li Zhen at this time for a while I can't make up my mind - use the evidence in my hand to trade with Li Tai, first, to receive some field from Li Tai, and second, to Li Tai to come forward to promote the waste storage is Li Zhen's established policy, and it is not cheap to secondly, the key is that Li Zhen wants to muddy the water, and Li Tai can not be allowed to enter the East Palace, And can't let Li Tai hurt too badly, so that he cheapened Lao Jiu in vain, and he had to put a time bomb on Lao Jiu, so as to ensure that after Li Zhen was full-fledged, he could get up and down his hands and make a profit from it, this is the general policy that Li Zhen and the two strategists discussed for a long time, but the problem is that things have obviously changed now, and before he knew the details of the change, Li Zhen didn't plan to put everything on the table so early.
"The little brother has a lot of things in his hands, but it's not easy to get them." Li Zhen pondered his tone and smiled: "What does the fourth brother plan to want, and what do you want in exchange?" ”
"Hehe...... Li Tai let out a sneer, looked at Li Zhen and said, "Brother wants three people?" ”
"Three people? Please make it clear to the fourth brother, the younger brother is impatient to guess the riddle. As soon as Li Zhen heard the three people, his heart suddenly trembled, and a bad premonition came to his heart - the key to bringing down the prince is three people: Wang Ji, Liu Qi, and Su Gan Chengji, the latter two are not a secret to Li Tai, Li Zhen passed on to Li Tai through various channels It is these two people, but Wang Ji's secret Li Zhen is going to be buckled in the palm of his hand as a trump card, and he wants to wait for Li Tai and Li Chengqian to make a deal with Li Tai There was a big problem in the middle, how could it not give Li Zhen a headache.
Li Tai stared at Li Zhen without blinking for a long time, trying to find a trace of surprise or panic from Li Zhen's face, but unfortunately Li Zhencheng's mansion was too deep, although there was some chaos in his heart, but there was no change in his face, Li Tai naturally couldn't find any flaws in Li Zhen's face, at this time, seeing that Li Zhen didn't react, Li Tai couldn't help but be a little disappointed, shrugged his shoulders and said: "The eighth brother is a person who understands, why do you need my brother to say it, hey, since the eighth brother doesn't want to say it, then the brother will just say it, What my brother wants is Wang Ji, the former head of the arsenal of the Ministry of War, plus Liu Qi and Su Gan Chengji, hehe, my brother is finished, it's the eighth brother's turn to make a bid. ”
Fuck, there are really ghosts in "Rising Sun", damn it, it seems that the status is not low, and it won't be possible if you don't rectify it well! Li Zhen was angry and hateful in his heart, without him, Li Zhen controlled Wang Ji very strictly, except for a few high-level people who knew, the middle-level personnel of "Rising Sun" could not contact this matter, and then remembered that when the eunuchs in the front palace changed blood, "Rising Sun" did not have any news in return, Li Zhen's heart immediately sank uncomfortable, and he couldn't wait to scold him, but in front of Li Tai, Li Zhen could not have any expression, so he could only hold his anger in his heart, and did not answer, he picked up the wine jug casually, filled Li Tai with a bottle, and poured it full for himself by the way, By pouring wine, he quickly adjusted his mentality, and passed all the possibilities in his mind, and then said lightly: "Since the fourth brother asks for it, the younger brother will never give it reason, but it is just ......"
As soon as Li Tai heard that Li Zhen had promised to give it to him, he was immediately overjoyed, and quickly intercepted: "It's just a very son, only the elder brother needs to have it, although the eighth brother said it, the elder brother will not allow it." ”
Uh-huh, good fellows, what a fucking generosity, rare, rare! Li Zhen really didn't expect Li Tai to say such generous words, but he was not happy, but his doubts deepened a little, and he was more and more sure that his previous inference was not wrong, before he figured out what happened, Li Zhen didn't plan to talk nonsense with Li Tai anymore, at this time, seeing Li Tai's smug look, he smiled and said: "What the fourth brother said, you and I are brothers, and the younger brother is not the elder brother's, why should we divide it so clearly, this is good, these three people are not in Beijing now, How about waiting for the younger brother to send someone to invite someone, and send it to the elder brother as soon as he arrives? ”
Don't look at Li Zhen's words politely, but the inside is all empty, there is no sincerity at all, the more Li Tai listens to it, the more it is not tasteful, his face immediately becomes ugly, the smug look on his face immediately disappears, the dark clouds are thick, and the green tendons on his forehead are jumping non-stop, but when he thinks that this person is in Li Zhen's hands, he can't have a seizure, his teeth are clucking, and after glaring at Li Zhen for a while, he took a deep breath, calmed down his mentality, gritted his teeth and said: "Thank you Eighth Brother for this, hehe, when will this person arrive in Beijing?" ”
Hey, sample, at the end of the day, it's still this bird virtue, such an impatient person who does big things, he deserves to die a bad death. Li Zhen watched the change in Li Tai's face with interest, and despised Li Tai viciously in his heart, pretending to think for a while, and then said slowly: "Fourth brother, don't worry, the younger brother will immediately order the transfer of people when he goes back, and he will be able to arrive in Beijing in two days at the earliest, well, how about it be set on the sixth day of the first month of March?" ”
Although Li Tai was angry in his heart, he saw that Li Zhen refused to let go, but he was helpless, he stared at Li Zhen hatefully, and suddenly laughed and said: "Okay, just rely on the eighth brother, the sixth day of the first month will be the sixth day of the first month, and then it doesn't hurt if you and my brother are good at discussing it, hehe, since the eighth brother is anxious to accompany the beauty, my brother won't keep you longer, just get busy." ”
Damn, this dog is still turning around and scolding Lao Tzu, hey, it's strange to see if Lao Tzu doesn't knock you kid hard! Li Zhen is a shrewd person, how can he not hear that Li Tai is scolding him for being a "heavy color and light brother", but he is too lazy to distinguish it, to be honest, Li Zhen didn't treat these brothers as people at all, and naturally he didn't care about the thorns in Li Tai's words, laughed, got up, and arched his hand very politely: "Fourth brother Haihan, junior brother is leaving." ”
"Well, let's go." Although Li Tai nodded and replied with a smile, he didn't even get up, he just sat there in a big way, putting his brother's head on his head, Li Zhen didn't care at all, smiled, strode out of Tingtaoxuan, and went back to Songyunxuan without mentioning it.
"Bastard!" Not long after Li Zhen left, the smile on Li Tai's face disappeared immediately, and he scolded angrily, thinking about his unwillingness, he waved his hand and smashed the wine bottle in his hand into the corner, and the good wine bottle immediately cracked in half, and Li Taiwu was still unsatisfied, and he picked up the wine bottle in front of Li Zhen, and was just about to concoct it in the same way, but when he heard a door knock, a person came out of the back compartment, and called out lightly: "Your Highness." Immediately, Li Taina's demeanor on the verge of breaking out was stabilized, and the person who came was Sima Su Miao of the palace.
"Uncle, Xiaoba's ......" As soon as Li Tai saw Su Miao coming out, he immediately screamed as if he had seen a savior.
Su Miao didn't say anything, just waved his hand, signaled Li Tai not to say much, walked to the original Li Zhen's seat and sat down, flicked his sleeves for a long time, glanced at Li Tai, and said slowly: "Your Highness doesn't need to say much, I heard it." ”
"Uncle, can ......" Li Tai shook his head in frustration, unable to speak.
Su Miao sighed and said: "Your Highness don't panic, His Royal Highness King Yue will hand over people, this article can be certain, it's just a matter of cost and timing, I have persuaded His Highness, don't come to His Royal Highness King Yue in such a hurry, hey, if His Royal Highness is not in a hurry, it should be His Royal Highness King Yue who is in a hurry, and now, hey, now His Royal Highness is only afraid that he will have to fold some books." ”
Before coming here, Su Miao had persuaded Li Tai, so that he didn't have to be so anxious, how could Li Tai be confused by the unexpected news, how could he not listen to Su Miao's persuasion, this time touched a soft nail, only then recalled Su Miao's analysis, couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, picked up the wine jug, took his mouth, poured a breath, and at the end, the wine jug was slammed, and said hatefully: "Uncle, this king is wrong, and what should I do now?" ”
"Wait!" Su Miao said a word without hesitation.
"Wait? This ...... can be ...... Alas, when? Li Tai muttered unwillingly.
"It's coming." Su Miao said lightly: "After His Royal Highness the King of Yue understands what happened, I am afraid that he will be in a hurry, and at that time, he will naturally send people to His Highness, but maybe, hey, His Royal Highness is too anxious, and his intentions are exposed too early, and I am afraid that this matter will change." ”
"Huh?" As soon as Li Tai heard this, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he got up, and accidentally bumped into a few sons, which immediately caused a burst of pots and saucers to crash, and the wine and vegetable juice splashed everywhere, stirring up a mess, but Li Tai didn't care so much, stared at Su Miao with a pair of eyes, and hurriedly asked, "Why did my uncle say this?" ”
Su Miao shook his head with a wry smile, glanced at Li Tai, and said with some hatred: "Your Highness, please sit down, don't lose your identity, hey, you are not alone, His Royal Highness King Yue is not without a choice." ”
"He? Little Nine? Hmph, this king is not as good as ......" Li Tai's eyes flashed a hint of fierceness, and he gritted his teeth and said with hatred.
"Your Highness!" Su Miao was really angered by Li Tai's breathless appearance, and screamed stiffly.
"Oh, uncle, forgive me, hehe, this king is just saying, hehe, it's just that Xiao Jiu's head is ......" Li Tai has always been convinced of Su Miao, and at this time, seeing that Comrade Lao Su was really angry, he immediately softened and said with a smile.
Su Miao has long known Li Tai's temperament, he has said good things and bad things on weekdays, but he has always had little effect, and he has long been no stranger, at this time, he saw Li Tai accompanied by a smiling face, but he really couldn't raise the interest of persuasion, he shook his head with a wry smile and said: "His Royal Highness King Yue is an understanding person, he naturally knows that even if the prince falls, it will not be his turn to take the throne, and there is no need to discuss it again, but His Royal Highness King Yue may not die in his heart, so he has three choices, but well, King Wu is now weak." , It is similar to the situation of His Royal Highness King Yue, His Royal Highness King Yue is impossible to throw himself into King Wu, the rest is Your Royal Highness and King Jin, hey, don't look at the weak King of Jin now, but there are 10,000 elite soldiers in hand, but it is a terrible thing, besides, King Jin has been friendly with His Royal Highness King Yue since he was a child, and the friendship here has to be considered......"
Before Su Miao finished speaking, Li Tai's impatience immediately flared up again, and Tie Qing said with a blushing face: "Uncle, no matter what, you can't let Xiao Ba go to Lao Jiu, or ......."
Su Miao ignored Li Tai's interjection, shook his hand, and then analyzed: "Although the King of Jin is friendly with His Royal Highness the King of Yue, it is expected that His Royal Highness the King of Yue will not hook up with His Royal Highness the King of Jin, hey, in this way, if His Royal Highness the King of Yue wants to seek great things, then there is only one way to find His Royal Highness!" ”
Hearing that Li Zhen would not go to Li Zhi, Li Tai immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but then the doubts in his heart rose again, he looked at Su Miao suspiciously, frowned and asked, "Uncle, why is this?" If Hachi has bad intentions, then why do you want to help this king? Besides, how should this king beat Hachi's fight? ”
Li Tai's questions came out in a series of questions, but Su Miao was not only not annoyed, but was a little relieved, nodded and said: "Your Highness can remember to ask these questions, which shows that you are attentive, and you will talk to Your Highness about one or two." Su Miao said this, paused, and then continued: "There is a mystery here - the King of Jin is just a useless waste, neither powerful nor capable, except for the identity of a concubine, there is nothing beside him, if he wants to enter the East Palace, then the Holy Lord naturally only has to drive all the princes out of the Beijing Division, in this way, not only His Royal Highness, even the King of Yue can not escape the fate of leaving Beijing, this is an unacceptable result for His Royal Highness the King of Yue who has great ambitions, on the contrary, if His Royal Highness enters the East Palace, The Holy Lord is bound to ask for a balance, so that the princes in Beijing do not have to leave Beijing, His Royal Highness the King of Yue is nothing more than to take advantage of this chaos to develop his forces in a big way, in order to prepare for the future, but he does not know that His Royal Highness only needs to enter the East Palace, settle those important ministers, and it is not easy to go back and clean up such a concubine as King Yue? ”
"Good! What my uncle said is very true, but this king still can't figure out why his father chose Xiao Jiu's waste, why is this? Li Tai applauded and shouted, but still asked puzzled.
Su Miao glanced at Li Tai, sighed and said: "The emperor's heart is scheming, the prince is powerful, and it endangers the imperial power, even the father and son may not be compatible, the king of Jin has no power and power, and his temperament is weak, when he wants to change people is not a matter of the saint's words, what is there to say." ”
Li Tai's face immediately turned pale, and then turned red, his hands were clenched into fists tightly, he waved angrily, and said with a sneer: "This king is not as good as he wants!" ”
Although Li Tai didn't say who "he" was referring to, Su Miao understood that Li Tai was referring to the current emperor Li Shimin, although he had already understood that the emperor's family had no family affection, he still couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, got up silently, walked to the window, looked at the misty sky, and stopped talking......
Drinking is the atmosphere, and you have to have a good mood, otherwise no matter how luxurious the place is, no matter how good the wine and food are, it is in vain, this is the same in ancient and modern times, Li Zhen was originally in a very good mood, and there was a beloved beauty by her side, I wanted to indulge it, and I could stretch and stretch the tiredness of these days, but Li Tailai came to such a hand, and the mood suddenly fell to the bottom, although in front of Pei Yan, there would be no show, it was still talking and laughing, but Li Zhen's intentions could not be concealed from Pei Yan, who was as careful as a hair. Seeing that Li Zhen had something on her mind, although Pei Yan was reluctant to leave Li Zhen's side, she couldn't bear to let Li Zhen worry, and she didn't drink for long, so she excused herself for lack of food, saying that she wanted to go back to the post station to rest, Li Zhen had something in her heart, and she would not be reluctant, so she hurriedly met the bank, sent Pei Yan back to the post station, and hurriedly rushed back to her palace, and as soon as she entered the door of the study, she saw Na Long coming up, and said with a little urgency: "Your Highness, something happened to the King of Jin in Qizhou." ”
Something happened to Lao Jiu? Li Zhen was stunned when she heard this......
