One hundred and twelve, Bo trusted
Hearing Li Xian's words, Xu Youzhen suddenly glared and said, "He dares, and the old man forgives Shi Heng and doesn't care about dealing with the old man like this." However, if Shi Heng really set such a trap on the old man and wanted to lure the old man into him, I would never fall for this easily. Shi Heng is not bad at being a powerful person in the court, and the old man is not a vegetarian. ”
Xu Youzhen's words are naturally to Li Xian to show that he will never submit to Shi Heng, Li Xian heard this, and he had a bottom in his heart, judging from the current situation, Xu Youzhen will never sit idly by and watch the power of Shi Heng's faction grow, and it can be said that Xu Youzhen is extremely willing to suppress Shi Heng and his henchmen.
After having such a thought in his heart, Li Xian spoke to Xu Youzhen: "What Lord Xu said is very true, from the current situation, if Shi Heng dares to go against Lord Xu, it is simply asking for trouble, and Lord Li's power in the court is beyond Shi Heng's power. ”
Hearing Li Xian's words, Xu Youzhen opened his mouth and said: "This is not bad at all, the old man also thinks like this in his heart, although Shi Heng is also a close minister of the emperor, but compared with the old man, Shi Heng is still far behind, and now he wants to use this to set up a trap to attack the old man, Shi Heng simply treats the old man as a three-year-old child, how can the old man be deceived by him so easily." ”
"What Lord Xu said is very true, Shi Heng has already made a stupid move, but now Shi Heng is still complacent in the mansion, thinking that this stupid move can drag Lord Xu into the water, but he never expected that Lord Xu would be able to make a plan and counteract it." Li Xian echoed Xu Youzhen and said.
Hearing Li Xian's words, he was very much in line with Xu Youzhen's intentions, Xu Youzhen smiled at Li Xian and said: "What Master Li said is very true, from the current situation, Shi Heng did not realize that the old man had already made such a clever plan, and the old man did not send someone to send things back, but I was afraid that Shi Heng was already complacent in the mansion and thought that the old man had fallen into the trap he carefully set, so that Shi Heng thought it was good, so that he could be paralyzed and careless, and he would be able to attack him unprepared in the future." The old man couldn't wait to know what Shi Heng would do if he was reprimanded by the emperor's holy decree. ”
Li Xian felt that if Shi Heng was reprimanded by the emperor, he was afraid that he would be jealous of Lord Xu. I don't know what the adults think about at this point? Li Xian pretended to be extremely concerned and asked Xu Youzhen.
Li Xian asked, Xu Youzhen nodded slightly and smiled: "It's still Brother Li's thoughtfulness for the old man, judging from the current situation, it is impossible to clean up Shi Heng's eyes, if you hand over Shi Heng's bribes to the emperor this time, with the old man's judgment, the emperor will definitely reprimand Shi Heng." In this way, Shi Heng's prestige can be extinguished, and the officials of the court and the central government will know that Shi Heng is just a favored courtier, although he is also a high power, but after all, he cannot compare with the old man. ”
Li Xian opened his mouth and said: "Lord Xu's words are not bad, it's just that the Lord who harmed Shi Heng for this matter tore his face, and Li Xian couldn't bear it. ”
When Xu Youzhen heard this, he smiled at Li Xian and said, "Brother Li is worthy of being a person who cherishes his friends and friends, and he can't get acquainted with all the people of the three sects and the ninth rank. But the elder brother can rest assured, judging from the current situation, the old man's approach this time is not enough to give Shi Heng a dismount, but also to mention Shi Heng, who is a little reckless at the moment, the old man is the first minister of the court, the emperor obeys the minister, he Shi Heng is just a favorite of the emperor, if the emperor doesn't like him one day, his official fortune will come to an end. is not like the old man, he is an indispensable pillar of the court. ”
Hearing Xu Youzhen's words, Li Xian couldn't help but secretly slander in his heart: "It seems that what the eldest princess said is not bad at all, although Xu Youzhen is quite deep in the city, but he has a fatal weakness, that is, the teacher's heart is self-serving, and he thinks very highly of himself. ”
Although he had such thoughts in his heart, Li Xian did not show it at all, but spoke to Xu Youzhen: "What Lord Xu said is very true, Shi Heng is a good person in front of the emperor, although he has received a little favor from the emperor at the moment, it is not enough This is only a temporary matter, from the current situation, Shi Heng really takes himself too seriously." Unscrupulously wanted to challenge Lord Xu's power and prestige, Shi Heng was really asking for his own hardships. ”
Hearing Li Xian's words, Xu Youzhen said: "Brother Li is not bad, Shi Heng is just a martial artist, and he has risen to today's high position with the support of the old man, and he doesn't know that he is tired of being satisfied, judging from the current situation, the old man wants to teach him a good lesson, so as not to make Shi Heng take the lead in the future and not put the old man in his eyes." ”
When Li Xian heard this, he casually echoed: "What Lord Xu said is very true, Shi Heng is so nonsense, he is about to force the palace to Lord Xu, and he must not be let go easily, so as not to let Shi Heng feel lucky, and he will get an inch in the future and get worse." ”
Hearing Li Xian's words, Xu Youzhen said: "What Brother Li said is very true, Shi Heng is so arrogant and domineering at the moment, he should be treated well, if he is allowed to mess around, not only will there be no way to restrain him, but Shi Heng will be uneasy and have to climb on the head of the old man." ”
Xu Youzhen's statement entered Li Xian's ears, and Li Xian naturally understood that Xu Youzhen's attitude towards Shi Heng was also deeply disgusted, although it was not broken on the surface before, but from other circumstances, Xu Youzhen had long wanted to punish Shi Heng, but there was no appropriate time, and today he came to the door to put forward such an idea, which has already made Xu Youzhen's thoughts come alive.
Judging from the current situation, Xu Youzhen has made up his mind, he must deal with Shi Heng well, it seems that in a few days, the contradiction between Xu Youzhen and Shi Heng will become clear, and there will definitely be a great turmoil in the court at that time.
And this turmoil has long been expected by the eldest princess, and Li Xianzi admires Jian Huaizhen in his heart.
"Since your lord has the heart to maintain the dynasty and clean up political affairs, Li Xian should follow Jiwei. also followed the emperor's impeachment of Shi Heng for forming a party for personal gain, and doing whatever he wanted. Li Xian echoed Xu Youzhen and said.
Xu Youzhen heard Li Xian's words, and after a slight sigh, he spoke: "This time, you don't have to bother Brother Li to make a move, the old man has thought about it, finding one or two bullet seals in the imperial history to impeach Shi Heng is not my brother's old business, if the elder brother makes a rash move, I am afraid that Shi Heng will still be suspicious in his heart, so why let the elder brother rashly commit this risk, there is no need." The old man will instruct one or two officials who specialize in the constitution to hand over the excerpt to the emperor tomorrow. ”
Hearing Xu Youzhen's words, Li Xian felt that he was in the middle of it, so he opened his mouth to Xu Youzhen and said, "Since Lord Xu opened his mouth to tell this matter, Li Xian should obey the order. ”
In fact, Li Xian took the initiative to ask Ying to say these words that had already been planned yesterday night, and Li Xian's intention to say this meant to show Xu Youzhen that he and he were of the same heart and mind to deal with Li Xian together.
The purpose of such a move is to dispel Xu Youzhen's suspicions, after all, for Xu Youzhen, as long as someone can be trusted, they can discuss the matter of dealing with Shi Heng together.
And the best way to gain Xu Youzhen's trust is undoubtedly to directly ask Xu Youzhen to take the initiative to impeach Shi Heng with the emperor.
Li Xian understood that Xu Youzhen's intention would never throw out his card so early, after all, he had just been a lobbyist for Xu Youzhen and personally went to Cao Jixiang's mansion last time, so that Cao Jixiang dispelled the purpose of going to the emperor to sue Xu Youzhen.
Li Xian knew in his heart that as long as he stood with Xu Youzhen, Xu Youzhen could trust himself with confidence, so that he would never use a think tank like himself as a pawn.
Now it seems that as expected, as soon as Xu Youzhen heard that she had such words, she immediately let herself let go of such thoughts.
Xu Youzhen told himself that he didn't have to come forward, and that he would find someone to take the lead to impeach Shi Heng, which also showed that Xu Youzhen really regarded himself as a think tank figure who could rely on when discussing major matters.
These years of hard work have not been in vain, and after these things, Xu Youzhen really accepted himself into his inner circle.
Hearing Li Xian's words, Xu Youzhen nodded and said: "Lord Li, what you said is not bad at all, judging from the current situation, Shi Heng must be rectified, if you don't starve and rectify the dynasty, don't say it's Shi Heng, I'm afraid that some other civil and military officials will follow suit in the future and don't put the old man in their eyes." This time, the old man must talk to the emperor well, hoping that the emperor can take this opportunity to cheer up and straighten out the affairs in the court. ”
Xu Youzhen has this ambition, and Li Xian agrees and says: "What the adults said is very true, judging from the current situation, this time there is such a rare opportunity, and we must not let it go easily." Since Shi Heng is so ignorant of elevation, but wants to take revenge on Lord Xu, then there is no need to be polite to him, and he must deal with Shi Heng well. ”
Xu Youzhen bowed slightly and said: "Yes, Lord Ben also thinks like this, judging from the current situation, if Shi Heng's matter is not dealt with, I am afraid that such things will be quite difficult to deal with in the future, from the current situation, it is a perfect opportunity to hit Shi Heng by bribery, and the old man will naturally not let go of such a good opportunity to attack political enemies." ”
Li Xian heard Xu Youzhen say this, and he already understood in his heart that this time Xu Youzhen was determined to attack Shi Heng in front of the emperor, and the purpose was very simple, Shi Heng has been too arrogant these days, and even Xu Youzhen was a little ignorant, thinking that he was above ten thousand people under one person.
Naturally, Xu Youzhen, as the assistant of the imperial court, could never tolerate such a thing, so there was such a thing.
Even if Xu Youzhen doesn't deal with Shi Heng this time, it is difficult to ensure that Shi Heng will take the lead in the future, and use the henchmen and forces he has cultivated in the court to counterattack Xu Youzhen.
Because once Xu Youzhen strikes first, as long as he says that the emperor is moved or even reprimands Shi Heng, Shi Heng can be discredited in front of the courtiers.
In this way, Xu Youzhen could take this opportunity to establish the unshakable position of the first courtier, and once Shi Heng was reprimanded by the emperor's order, other civil and military officials who originally wanted to rely on Shi Heng would have some consideration. And some of the wandering ministers of the court will be attached to Xu Youzhen's banner.
Therefore, this chess piece played by Xu Youzhen is a really good move.
After Li Xian understood these things in his heart, he also admired Xu Youzhen's methods.
Jiang is old and spicy, this is not false at all, Xu Youzhen can make such a counterattack under such unfavorable circumstances, this kind of ability is by no means something that ordinary court ministers can do. However, at this time, for Xu Youzhen, it is extremely simple.
Li Xian finally understood in his heart why Yu Qian, who died unjustly, was poisoned by Xu Youzhen when he was in the middle of the day.
It's really Xu Youzhen's scheming is too deep, he took advantage of the change of seizing the door back then, and threw out a nameless name for this move to force Zhu Qizhen to kill Yu Qian.
From the current point of view, Xu Youzhen's words are too powerful, if it were not for Xu Youzhen's words, Lord Yu Qian would never have died unjustly.
Although Li Xian was extremely disdainful of Xu Youzhen in his heart, he also understood that now was not a good time to deal with Xu Youzhen, if he wanted to deal with Xu Youzhen, he would have to discuss it with the eldest princess before making a decision.
Li Xian had a clear understanding in his heart, so he naturally didn't say anything more, so he said to Xu Youzhen: "Lord Xu, since the strategy has been decided, then there is no better, the lower officials will go back first, wait for the good news, and hope that Lord Xu and the emperor can rectify Shi Heng well this time, and also revitalize the dynasty and give an explanation to the subjects of the world." ”
Hearing Li Xian's words, Xu Youzhen spoke: "The old man will never let Lord Li down, this time he will definitely make a good fuss about Shi Heng, even if the emperor has no intention of punishing Shi Heng, the old man will never let Shi Heng pass easily." ”
Xu Youzhen said this, Li Xian was very happy in his heart, and in this way, he was one step closer to the eldest princess and his own hopes.
As long as the offensive and defensive alliance between Xu Youzhen and Shi Heng is broken, it will be a great joy for Li Xian.
After all, it is much easier to deal with Xu Youzhen than it is to deal with the offensive and defensive alliance between Xu Youzhen and Shi Heng.
What's more, after the offensive and defensive alliance between the two falls apart, they can also provoke the relationship between Xu Youzhen and Shi Heng through many contradictions, so that even if Shi Heng and Xu Youzhen want to get back together again, I am afraid that it will be difficult to break the mirror.
In this way, it will be much easier to deal with Xu Youzhen Shiheng and Cao Jixiang, the chief eunuch in the palace, in the future.
Li Xian had such thoughts in his heart, but he didn't show it at all, he just said goodbye to Xu Youzhen: "My lord, since the plan has been decided, the lower official will leave first." ”
Xu Youzhen had just come up with a way to get Shi Heng in front of the emperor, and he felt that he still had to plan carefully how to make suggestions, so he said to Li Xian: "Okay, the old man still has to plan this matter as a whole, so he won't personally send Brother Li out of the house." In this way, the old man ordered the housekeeper to send Master Xu. ”
Hearing Xu Youzhen's words, Li Xian hurriedly thanked him: "Why bother with the housekeeper to send him off, even if the lower officials are in the house, they don't dare to disturb the house, just let the lower officials go back as a car." ”
Seeing Li Xian say this, Xu Youzhen opened his mouth and said: "Lord Li doesn't have to be like this, if the old man doesn't send Lord Li back, this matter will be snooped on by other adults in the court, and the old man is too unkind, and this kind of thing is definitely not what the old man is willing to do." ”
Xu Youzhen said this, and Li Xian just didn't want to insist on it, so he said in a kind manner: "Since Lord Xu doesn't allow Li Xian'an to be a car, then bother the sedan chair driver in the house again." ”
When Xu Youzhen heard this, he smiled and said: "Master Li is really too polite, today the old man sent someone to your mansion to invite, which is already a bit disturbing. How could Master Li come in a sedan chair, and when he walked, he would ask his brother to leave in a car, if this was the case, wouldn't it be terrible to spread it. ”
When Li Xian heard this, he echoed and said: "Lord Xu is too worried, this kind of matter is also required by the lower officials, what does it have to do with the adults, the heart of the adults, the meaning of Yin Yin, the lower officials have a sense of guilt, and they will never go outside to say that the house is not." ”
Xu Youzhen bowed his head again and again: "The old brother believes in the old man's life, but Shi Heng also installed his eyes and ears outside the old man's mansion, and the old brother still takes a sedan chair to walk from the back." ”
Hearing Xu Youzhen's words, Li Xian opened his mouth and said: "What the adults said is very true, Shi Heng is eyeing him now, and if he can do less, he will do less, so it is good to paralyze Shi Heng." ”
Xu Youzhen bowed his head and said: "What my brother said is true, judging from the current situation, Shi Hengshang must be strictly guarded against. ”
Li Xian agreed: "Lord Xu, since this is the case, the lower official will leave first." ”
"Brother Li is easy to go, I won't be far away." Xu Youzhen responded.
Li Xian bowed to Xu Youzhen and immediately retreated.
I could only hear Xu Youzhen shouting loudly inside: "Butler, find a good sedan chair and send Master Li back from the back door of the mansion." ”
The housekeeper who was waiting outside heard Xu Youzhen's order, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he immediately walked up to Li Xian, and respectfully said to Li Xian: "The master has an order, Lord Li, please here." ”
When Li Xian heard him say this, he said humbly: "You don't need to call the contemptible person Lord Li, just call me Brother Li." ”
When the housekeeper heard this, he hurriedly said: "The villain doesn't dare, after all, it is an order from above, how dare the little ones be presumptuous in front of Lord Li, if Lord Xu knows that I call the adult Brother Li in front of Lord Li, and don't smoke the tendons of our waiting and peel off the skin of our waiting." ”
Hearing this, Li Xian understood in his heart that Xu Youzhen was still very concerned about the affairs of governing the housekeepers and slaves in the mansion, otherwise, this housekeeper would not have such words and actions.
With such thoughts in his heart, Li Xian no longer insisted, so he spoke to the housekeeper of the Xu Mansion and said, "If this is the case, let's ask the housekeeper to lead the way." ”
The housekeeper heard that Li Xian was not talking about Fang Cai, and he also breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Okay, please come with me, the sedan chair has already been prepared, and it is waiting for Lord Li in the courtyard outside." ”
When Li Xian heard this, he spoke to the housekeeper: "Butler, why are you preparing so quickly. Li had just said goodbye to Lord Xu, and the house was ready, which was a little unbelievable. ”
Hearing Li Xian's words, the housekeeper opened his mouth and said: "Actually, things are not what Master Li thought, the sedan chair was actually prepared a long time ago, and this matter was ordered by our master in the morning." ”
The butler's words entered Li Xian's ears, Li Xian was slightly surprised in his heart, he didn't expect that Xu Youzhen had already arranged everything, judging from the current situation, Xu Youzhen had obviously made arrangements.
Li Xian couldn't help but feel that Xu Youzhen was delicate, and he was by no means a careless person. Judging from the current situation, although Shi Heng and Cao Jixiang are ruthless, they can compete with Xu Youzhen, who is like a needle, and the number of victories and defeats is especially difficult to predict.
With this thought in his heart, Li Xian opened his mouth and said, "Butler, since this is the case, it's not too early, so please lead the way first." ”
When the housekeeper heard Li Xian's words, he bowed down and saluted Li Xian, and then said to Li Xian: "Master Li, please come with me." ”
Li Xian nodded when he heard this, and then followed the housekeeper together.
After walking for a while, the two of them walked to the outer courtyard.
