In three years, the original group of courtiers who were worried about the people were roughly estimated to be tempted by the position of power, and more or less changed their concept and mentality when they first entered the court.

"Thank you Shang Shuling." Qin Xun stopped and saluted Qu Lingjun, asked him to stay, and went back to the palace by himself.

Qin Xun thought about the current court all the way back to the palace, although the military ministers are always more confident than the civil ministers because of the military power in hand, but the emperors who are vying for the throne, the civil and military courtiers who support them behind him should be equally important, and it is not a good thing for either party to pay too much attention. Daqi is now to put it bluntly, the emperor's eldest son Qi Xuan and the emperor's third son Qi Jing are competing for the throne, and it is also unfortunate that the courtiers behind the two of them, Qi Xuan are mostly civil ministers, and Qi Jing is mostly military ministers, since the ministers headed by the prime minister Qu and the military general Lin Qin.

Qin Xun is the third prince of the party, and he is Qi Jing's person, and what he is thinking about is to win the support of the Chinese courtiers for Qi Jing on the basis of the present, and gradually adjust the expansion of the battle behind Qi Jing to pay equal attention to both culture and martial arts.

The so-called enlisting the support of the courtiers will naturally not be bothering to collect a group of fragmentary ministers, which will be both energy-consuming and useless, and the most practical way is to buy or replace the high-ranking officials of the civil servants with their own people, and the petty officials under them will fall along with the flag.

The position of Shang Shuling, who commands the six departments, is the most important official position of the civil minister, if Qi Jing wants to firmly control the power, this official position must be contested, and getting the Shang Shu Ling is almost equivalent to controlling the entire six departments in his hands, but ...... Qin Xun recalled that when he had just asked Qu Lingjun to stay, this gentle young man Shangshu Ling couldn't help but laugh and debunked the sentence: "In the future, if you want to come in, the guards will let you in, as long as it is convenient, you will be allowed to come in, and you don't have to lend it to the chief for any other reason, and ask someone to pay it back."

I thought that our Ministry of Rites was too much to lose. ”

It is undeniable that Qu Lingjun is indeed a good person, and he is indeed a good minister, Qin Xun thinks that there is no Shangshu under them who can do better than Qu Lingjun to be selected, and if he resigns from his original official position, especially such a high position as Zhengerpin Shangshuling, it is either promoted or punished, of course they can't let the Qu family be too powerful, and in all fairness, judging from today's acquaintance and conversation, Qin Xun is not very willing to push a young man who has no grievances and a good temperament down from the derogatory situation.

The courtiers who Qi Jing frequently mentions when he talks about political affairs on weekdays are either important ministers of his own party or important ministers of the enemy party, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't mention it, Qu Lingjun's position as a person and Shang Shuling is obviously not insignificant, but Qi Jing rarely mentions it, and he thinks that he has not yet made up his mind about Qu Lingjun's attitude.

However, Qi Jing and he are not indecisive people, and now that the situation is unwavering, they can still stand still, if the mountain rain is about to come one day, even if they pity the good talent, they will not be merciful to Qu Lingjun.

If they are not ruthless enough and will never ascend to the throne, they want the throne, not the throne, and then the prosperous country, and then the good generals and virtuous ministers, they will all fall into the hands of others. Qi Jing and Qin Xun, who make a living in the whirlpool of imperial power, have to live up to a few people who are unwilling to live up to in this life.

The carriage gradually stopped, Qin Xun lifted the curtain and jumped out of the car, raised his eyes to look at the Weiyang Palace Gate in front of him, and looked in from here, just to be able to see the Taiji Hall of Discussion and Politics that was carved in front of the palace gate from afar.

He laughed and sighed.

It doesn't matter, as long as Qi Jing lives up to him, he will definitely live up to Qi Jing in this life.

"Third Prince Qin." The coachman beside him saw that he was still and called out.

"Thank you for your hard work." Qin Xun turned his head and smiled at him, stepped into the palace gate and went to Jingyang Palace, picked up the place he was thinking about and continued to think.

The position of the prime minister is obviously not something that can be easily shaken by the wrist of a small envoy, Qi Jing and Qin Xun do not intend to gnaw on this difficult bone as soon as they come up, of course the right phase Qu clan can't buy it, as for the left phase Yan's ...... Qin Xun pinched his chin with some distress.

The two families on the left and right are not very harmonious in private, which is a tacit matter in the court. The right phase Qu family strongly supports the eldest son Qi Xuan of their family, and I don't know if he intends to fight with the Qu family, although he was not on good terms with the Qu family in the past, the Yan family has always had an ambiguous attitude in the prince's competition, looking at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet half a month ago, it is obvious that the Yan family intends to marry their daughter Qi Jing, and wants to make a clear position.

It's a pity that Qi Jing didn't marry Yan Zhi, and he was a little embarrassed by the Yan family, but I don't know who has the upper hand in the Yan family's dissatisfaction with the Qu family and Qi Jing, whether they will give up marrying their daughter and still support Qi Jing, or they will be angry and turn their rival Qu family into jade silk and support Qi Xuan instead.

After all, all the princes are still waiting to marry as concubines, and the Yan family obviously wants to make the Yan family daughter the queen.

Eh, wait, I seem to have forgotten something.

Qin Xun glanced at the direction of the imperial library in the Weiyang Palace, and said in his heart Isn't Qin Zichang the kind of relationship with the Yan family's etiquette, although he can't put it on the bright side, but with the relationship between the two, Yan

I don't think I would watch the Yan family and Qi Jing become enemies, but when did the eldest brother get along with Young Master Yan? He didn't see the signs before he left home, most likely after he left home, big brother......

Qin Xun couldn't help but take a few more glances at the Imperial Library.

That's it, who knows what Qin Zichang thinks about doing things, fortunately, although Young Master Yan is indeed a simple and easy to deceive, but after all, it seems that this younger brother who was brought up by Qin Zichang seems that when Qin Zichang looked at Young Master Yan, the look in his eyes was not fake.

When Qin Xun stepped into the study, he saw Qi Jing sitting at the back of the desk, not reading or writing or painting, only rubbing the white jade paperweight on his desk, as if he was contemplating something. Qin Xun stretched his waist and walked over, and said with a smile: "Come back so early, what time is it?" ”

"Shen Shi." When Qi Jing saw him, he put down the white jade paperweight in his hand, hooked his hand at him to stop him from sitting on the opposite side of his desk, "Come here." ”

Qin Xun pushed back the half-pulled wooden chair, lifted Qi Jing's side leg, and sat on Qi Jing's leg face to face: "I don't care, I'm not standing, if you call me over, you have to let me sit on your lap." ”

"Hmm." Qi Jing's original intention was to ask him to come over and sit on his lap, but the posture was not quite the same as he expected, but it was okay, he grabbed the young man's slender waist and pressed it to his body a few points, and said with a warm smile: "Casually allow you to go out to play by yourself, you really let me run out, why are you so idle?" ”

"What, you want to tie me up again?" Qin Xun said with a smile.

Qi Jing sighed and gently pinched his cheek: "You like to go out to play, so naturally you do as you like." ”

"Qi Jing, what did Your Majesty call you for?"
