Chapter 109: Jiangdu is too guarded
Li Yizhi's mind was spinning rapidly, he recalled the information of the original book, and soon found the answer, they were trying to balance the Yuwen family.
In today's Jiangdu imperial court team, there are mainly three forces:
One of them is the Yuwen valve. Yu Wenhua served as the head of the forbidden army, and at the same time, whether it was Sima Dejia, the commander of the forbidden army, or Chi Sheng, the governor of Yangzhou, they all secretly took refuge in Yu Wenhua, and the power was the strongest.
The second is the alliance between Yu Shiji and Pei Yun. The two relied on Yang Guang's favor to control the government, and the only weakness was that they did not have military power in their hands.
The third is the Dugu Valve. Dugu Valve is a relative, and Dugu Sheng is Yang Guang's bodyguard, controlling part of the forbidden army.
However, although Dugu Valve is a relative, his sense of existence has always been very weak, and he can't compare with the first two at all.
Therefore, the main opponent of Yu Shiji and Pei Yun's alliance is Yuwen Valve.
In fact, the alliance between Yu Shiji and Pei Yun has been looking for various excuses to slander Yu Wenhua in front of Yang Guang, hoping to hit Yuwen Valve.
Now that Yang Guang had handed over a sword by himself, they naturally had to grasp it and cut off a large piece of flesh and blood from Yuwen's mouth.
Because Wei Chisheng is the governor of Yangzhou, he is in charge of Yangzhou's military and political power.
Once Li Yizhi became the Jiangdu Taishou, it would be tantamount to depriving Wei Chisheng of his administrative power, and even in terms of logistics, he would have to restrain Wei Chisheng.
Yu Wenhua and when he heard the words, his face sank instantly.
He stood up and retorted fiercely: "Your Majesty, although this Li Yizhi is a good painter, how can he see his talent? What's more, Jiangdu Taishou is a high position of the third grade, how can he be awarded a white ding? ”
Pei Yun smiled indifferently, he walked to the hall and said: "General Yuwen's words are wrong, you are not a scholar, so naturally you don't know, calligraphy and painting are one." This painting is Li Yizhi's hobby, and he still has such a high attainment, if he wants to come to his literary Taoism, he is naturally not weak. ”
Yu Wenhua and his long sleeves flicked, looked at Pei Yun coldly, and said: "It's just ridiculous, painting is painting, and literature is literary talent, how can the two be confused." Besides, even if he Li Yizhi has some talents, he must start from a low level. has no experience as an official, and suddenly became a high-ranking official of the third grade, you are trying to ignore the people of Limin! ”
Yu Shiji said unhurriedly: "If it is an ordinary person, it is natural to start from a low-level official, but Li Yizhi is a talent valued by His Majesty, and he must have something extraordinary, how can he be like an ordinary official, could it be that you doubt Your Majesty's vision?" ”
Yu Wenhua's face changed, and he was about to refute......
"That's it!"
Yang Guang on the dragon chair waved his long sleeves, looked at Yu Wenhua and was a little displeased, he turned his head and asked His Royal Highness Dugu Sheng, and said, "Dugu Aiqing, what do you think?" ”
Dugu Sheng looked at the people in the hall, he slowly turned around, bowed to Yang Guang and said, "The last general feels that both of them have a point, but it depends on Your Majesty's dictatorship. His Majesty thinks that Li Yizhi's trip, then Li Yizhi will do; If His Majesty thinks that Li Yizhi can't do it, then Li Yizhi must not be able to. ”
The battle between the Yu Pei Alliance and the Yuwen Valve, Dugu Sheng has always watched the fire from the other side, and he just needs to make Yang Guang happy.
Yang Guang laughed, his expression was relaxed, and he said loudly: "This matter is so decided, and Li Yizhi will be appointed as the Taishou of Jiangdu, and he will be competent on the same day." However, Li Aiqing, before you take office, you have to help me paint a picture of these beauties. ”
The corners of Li Yizhi's mouth curled, and he said in a loud voice: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen, and the ministers obey the order." ”
Yu Wenhua's face was pale, and he coldly swept Yu Shiji and Pei Yun, his fists clenched.
Yu Shiji and Pei Yun chuckled indifferently, although it seemed that the snipe and the clam were fighting, and the fisherman was profitable.
But they believe that it should not be difficult to subdue Li Yizhi, and then this will be the strength of their own side.
…………
There were too many concubines in the palace, even if Li Yizhi painted one in half an hour, he painted it for more than two days in a row, and it was not until the afternoon of the third day that he walked out of the palace.
In fact, those who can be qualified to make Li Yizhi's portrait are all concubines who are quite favored by Yang Guang and have a high status, if all the show girls are counted, I am afraid that in a month or two, he will not want to go out of the Jiangdu Palace.
And these concubines are indeed all beautiful and moving, fragrant and beautiful, and the most dazzling of them is Queen Xiao.
Empress Xiao's life is legendary, she has married six emperors before and after, the last of which is Li Shimin, even if Empress Xiao was nearly fifty years old at that time, she still fascinated Li Shimin.
As soon as Li Yizhi walked out of the palace, a gorgeous carriage slowly walked over.
The curtain of the carriage was opened, and Yu Shiji said with a smile: "Li Taishou is going back to Yangzhou, so you might as well get in the car with me." ”
Li Yizhi smiled slightly, and arched his hand: "Then disturb Yu Shilang." ”
"Hehe, Li is too polite."
It is still the Sui Dynasty, and there is no title of 'adult', and the title of person is generally a surname plus an official title, or a title.
Yu Shiji is an internal history squire, so Li Yizhi calls him 'Yu Shilang', and Yu Shiji calls him 'Li Taishou'.
Li Yi got on the carriage and found that the carriage was very spacious and luxuriously decorated, and even the ground was covered with fox skins.
He sat down across from Yu Shiji, and there was a small table between the two of them, on which were some delicate snacks.
Yu Shiji pointed to the dim sum with his right hand and said, "Li Taishou, come and try these dim sum, they are all made by the imperial chef in the palace, and you can't eat them outside." ”
Li Yizhi nodded when he heard this, and he said: "Yu Shilang, thank you and Imperial Envoy Pei for your recommendation that day." ”
After Yu Shiji finished eating the snack, he wiped his hands with a brocade cloth before saying, "Li Taishou is too polite, the reason why I recommend you is also because Your Majesty appreciates your talent." However, Li Taishou is going to Yangzhou to take office, but he has to pay attention to Yu Wenhua. ”
"Oh, what do you mean by that?"
Li Yizhi probably guessed Yu Shiji's purpose, he was funny in his heart, but he also cooperated and pretended to be ignorant.
"I'm afraid you don't know that Wei Chi Sheng, the governor of Yangzhou, has actually secretly taken refuge in Yuwen Valve a long time ago, and Yangzhou is close to Jiangdu Palace, so Yu Wenhua and his influence in the court are very great."
Yu Shiji looked at Li Yizhi and said meaningfully: "Now that you have become the Taishou of Jiangdu, it is equivalent to taking away half of Wei Chisheng's rights at once, I am afraid that not only Yu Chisheng hates you in his heart, but Yu Wenhua also wants to deal with you quickly." ”
Li Yi looked frightened, as if he was frightened, and then pretended to ask Yu Shiji for help: "How is this good, please ask Yu Shilang to save me." ”
"Li Taishou rest assured, this official will not stand idly by in this matter. Yu Wenhua and relying on the military power in his hands, he is extremely domineering in the DPRK, and sooner or later he will endanger the world. Therefore, for the sake of His Majesty and the people of the world, Imperial Envoy Pei and I have been secretly plotting to weaken his power. ”
Yu Shiji was very satisfied with Li Yizhi's performance, and he comforted: "We recommend you as Jiangdu Taishou this time, which is the first step to weaken the power of the Yuwen valve, and then you have to grasp the power of Yangzhou as soon as possible, and then you can restrain Wei Chi Sheng, so that we can join forces with us to clamp down on Yu Wenhua." ”
Li Yiyi looked grateful, and said, "Yu Shilang, rest assured, in the future, the lower officials will definitely take your head as the leader." ”
"Haha, Li Taishou is too outward." Yu Shiji smiled heartily.
