Chapter 50: Reactions from all sides
As the saying goes, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and this great victory on the front line instantly caused a sensation in the entire imperial capital through a war report, and for a while, "aircraft" and "sky" became the most mentioned words.
At the same time, the source of the aircraft was also continuously dug deep and finally exposed.
Treasure Ship Island, now known to the inhabitants of the Empire, is once again in the limelight.
"Treasure ship, swallowing python, flying machine..." Contrary to the jubilant scene in the imperial capital at this time, Lord Taiwei felt a deep malice and threat from Treasure Ship Island.
The relationship between Baochuan Island and the Tang family can be seen from Tang Ling's current household registration in the Tang family, and this household registration was also handled by His Majesty the Emperor asked Lord Zongzheng to handle it personally.
Therefore, under a series of connections, the Taiwei did not dare to use anything that he could do with his power on Treasure Ship Island, that is, he could not dictate to Treasure Ship Island without getting the emperor's nod.
Moreover, with the relationship between the other party and the Tang family and the Zhang family, Taiwei has even ruled out the idea of privately contacting Baochuan Island.
What to do?
This can't be done, that can't be either, Lord Taiwei's brain is a mess!
What happened last time on the main hall made the Taiwei realize that even if he used the military as a cover this time, most of the Qin Emperor, who was guarded against him, would only reluctantly agree, but as for when he would fulfill it, he would never have the slightest promise, that is to say, the Qin Emperor would use the "procrastination trick" nine times out of ten.
The prime minister has been exposed, and the wall grass of the imperial historian will definitely not be on their side at this time, it seems that all the roads are blocked...
"Master, President Zhang of the Ocean Chamber of Commerce asks to see you!"
"Oh? Hurry up, please! ”
It is impossible for the captain to be unaware of the contradictions between the Ocean Chamber of Commerce and Treasure Ship Island, and even he knows that the Ocean Chamber of Commerce once instigated a group of pirates to attack Treasure Boat Island, and the so-called enemy of the enemy is a friend. For a long time, he and the prime minister also knew about the small actions of the two corrupt officials and ministers, but he had not had direct contact with this ocean chamber of commerce, and it seems that today, maybe the other party will bring him some good news!
······
On the other side, Dr. Yu Shi was also meditating at home at the moment.
Zhao Wencheng, a man who climbed up step by step from the grassroots level, and finally became one of the three most powerful people in the empire, exquisite, left and right, to a certain extent, this man who is already fifty years old is somewhat similar to the second black child, but the latter's skills are far less than the former.
But this can also be seen that our Imperial Doctor is a real villain, others scold him for being a grass on the wall, but he is not ashamed but proud, it is by relying on enough understanding of himself, and a clear positioning, he can become a master in less than 30 years.
So in his opinion, the insults that others have against him are nothing but envy, jealousy and hatred, what about the villain? If you have the ability, you non-villains, you can also mix up the three princes and come out to show me!
However, there is an end to everything, when Zhao Wencheng became the imperial historian, he gradually found that his previous tricks were about to fail, because now he is no longer facing the small people in the mountains or local corrupt officials, but the emperor who leans towards the government and the opposition, and the three princes and nine kings, who control the fate of the empire.
Standing position, Zhao Wencheng has never liked to do this, but if it continues to be so erratic, when the two interest groups of the empire officially clash, the first thing to be eliminated will be him, a wall grass that may fall to one side at any time!
Now, he is the object that both sides need to woo, and naturally he wants to be windy and rainy, but once the conflict between the two sides intensifies or even becomes clear, then he is a huge hidden danger, because he is the imperial historian, who is in charge of the supervision of all local administrative district officials in the country, basically eighty percent of the local officials are related to him or directly his person, at that time, he will become an absolute dangerous person, and he must be eliminated first!
However, Zhao Wencheng is not optimistic about both parties, Emperor Qin, there is no one in ten obedient people, and now he relies on the queen's family, only the Tang family with orphans and widows and the Zhang family who are still alive to support the façade, and the rest are mostly people who are yang and yin, and have no future.
Maybe if he joins, it will greatly increase the power of Emperor Qin and play a role in sending charcoal in the snow, but with Zhao Wencheng's shrewdness, he understands very well that once Emperor Qin regains his scattered power, then he may become the first victim, either being hollowed out, or directly losing his life, neither of which is the ending that Zhao Wencheng wants, so Emperor Qin does not consider it.
On the Taiwei side, the desire to control is too strong, and Taiwei Wang Huashan is still a reckless man, although he is not brave and strategic, but most of the people who give advice are the prime minister, so this guy is very likely to be stabbed in the back by the prime minister in the future, and the defeat is too obvious.
If he insisted on choosing a person to take refuge or form an alliance, Zhao Wencheng had a better candidate: Tang Ling.
This is a genius prodigy born out of nowhere, to be gifted and talented, to have a future in the future, once he grows up in the future, the Tang family will be his final say, and before that, he did not have any foundation, maybe he has some agreements with the royal family, but that does not mean that Tang Ling will become a member of the royal faction.
At this point, Zhao Wencheng with his many years of experience, coupled with Tang Ling's great efforts to establish Baochuan Island and his actions before and after, he had reason to judge that the other party was a person who was a little ambitious and would not be willing to be subordinate.
At this time, if he chooses to applaud the Tang family, Tang Ling, or even form an alliance, it will be the real icing on the cake.
Moreover, even Emperor Qin didn't know that Zhao Wencheng would know about the relationship between the Tang family and him, especially when Emperor Qin suddenly became angry in the court that day, Zhao Wencheng was even more sure that the news he had learned before was true.
In this way, Tang Ling has become a potential stock, even if the Qin Emperor hangs up in the future, there will always be someone in the Great Qin Empire who will sit in that position.
"Someone! Prepare the horse, bring gifts and go with me to the Tang family! Thinking of this, Zhao Wencheng immediately decided to talk to Tang Lingyun first.
The actions of Taiwei and Imperial Doctor and others reflected the reaction within the Great Qin Empire to the Great Victory on Gunship Island and the existence of Baochuan Island, while on the other side of the sea, the Four Great Powers were similarly undercurrent.
Especially the Han and Ming kingdoms in the middle of the north and south, these two countries and the Qin state are mortal enemies that will never change, and the three sides have fought many times in the past thousand years, and they have been blood feuds.
So they were panicked about the sudden appearance of the flying group of the Qin army on the warship island, and none of the two large fleets with full strength had successfully returned the battleship, and the front line was also lost, so they also began to investigate this magical thing that could fly in the sky!
