Chapter 124: Fishing
Deng Ziyue thought about it for a while, and then thought about the preface and afterwords of Lord Tisi very clearly.
The so-called head of the Northern Qi Dynasty is indeed a very risky messenger, but it is also the most important link on the external front of the Supervision Yuan, but anyone who has done this position will be reused after returning to China - the former Yan Bingyun Xiaoyan Gongzi needless to say, he has already become the leader of the four places at a young age, everyone knows that in the future, after President Chen is old, Lord Xiao Fan will take over the position of dean, and Xiao Yan Gongzi will definitely have more important appointments.
And Deng Ziyue's familiar old boss Wang Qinian was in the courtyard for ten years, as soon as he met Fan Xian, he was sent to Northern Qi, listening to Lord Tisi's previous words, after Wang Qinian returned to China, he would also become a new host leader.
The trip to the Northern Qi Dynasty was an adventure, and it was also gilded on the political zhì.
Lord Tisi asked if he was willing to go to Northern Qi, so he was naturally ready to promote himself, and he heard that the old organizer of the second department was old and ready to return to the old ...... I was born in two places.
Deng Ziyue's heart was excited, knelt in front of Fan Xian, and said in a deep voice: "It's all up to the adults' arrangements." β
Fan Xian smiled and didn't continue to say anything. Through the Jiangnan incident, he felt more and more that although His Majesty the Emperor did trust him very much, he still absolutely prevented himself from having any connection with the military, so that the absolute strength in his hands was still limited when he did things.
Otherwise, he would not be so jealous of Xue Qing, the governor of Jiangnan.
The one sitting on the dragon chair didn't even trust his rightful son, let alone Fan Xian. Fan Xian knew that the emperor had given him so much authority now, which was already very good, but he also knew that the other party would not let him expand his power again, since the way to obtain it was very difficult, then Fan Xian had to grasp the power he had already grasped more firmly.
For example, the Supervision Yuan, in the post-Chen Pingping era, must change blood and must be replenished with fresh blood loyal to itself.
............ Deng Ziyue reported to him about the recent actions of the Supervision Yuan in Jiangnan, the main purpose is still about the Ming family, although the Supervision Yuan is in charge of supervising the governance of officials, and does not have direct access to the civil forces, but the most important thing in the world is the reason of the government, the Supervision Yuan has made preliminary preparations, and can meddle in the affairs of Jiangnan at any time according to Fan Xian's instructions, from the inner library to Suzhou to the dock, from the account to the library, and oppress the Ming family in an all-round way.
This is the only thing Fan Xian can do at present. Since the specific evidence of the Ming family's crimes cannot be recovered, it is impossible to use the power of the official face to bully him, and the officials on Jiangnan Road are staring at him...... Now the work of the Supervision Yuan is to interfere with the Ming family's trade routes, and the Inner Treasury Transit Division is manipulating the supply, further compressing the Ming family's inputs, so that the other party's flowing water and silver are in short supply, and only in this way can the Ming family be forced to continue to adjust the silver on a large scale.
And the means, in fact, are hidden in the silver blending.
"How long has it been since there has been news from the island?" Fan Xian frowned, the island matter that was enough to crush the Ming family had suddenly fallen into silence recently.
Deng Ziyue heard Fan Xian's worries, and he also had some doubts in his heart, and said: "The Quanzhou branch office also feels that something is wrong, and has sent someone to sneak to the island, and there will be news back in about a while." β
The south of the Yangtze River is large, and it takes too long for the news from the island of the East China Sea to Suzhou. Fan Xian knew that he could only wait for the time being.
After Deng Ziyue left, Fan Xian felt a little tired, stretched his waist, walked out of the room, and walked in the Chinese garden.
Although Huayuan is Yang Jimei's mansion, it is not contaminated with too much salt merchant's wealth and arrogance of private salt sales, but it is blindly beautiful and elegant, and other residential gardens are no different from the shallow flowing water, green rockery, layer upon layer, corridor mountain pavilion, through the original designer's skillful arrangement, it shows a different vitality, the whole garden seems to come alive in general, such as the green mountains in the south of the Yangtze River, such as the clear water of the West Lake, gentle and light surrounding the people in the garden.
This kind of skillful arrangement of the unity of heaven and man, there is no doubt that the most appreciated by the begonia girl, the descendant of Tianyi, is the most appreciated, so in Suzhou, she spends most of her time meditating in the garden, and does not go out to find the style of Jiangnan characters.
So when Fan Xian saw the floral cloth clothes by the small lake, he was not surprised.
"Fishing doesn't seem to be for you. β
He walked to the lake and sat down, slightly more to the shore than Begonia, the distance between the two was kept a foot, from this angle, he could just see the Begonia girl's steady shoulders, as well as the flower cloth towel wrapped around her head, and a very ordinary straw hat beside her, yellow sè.
Begonia didn't look back, and replied in harmony: "Why is it not suitable?"
The bamboo pole in her hand did not move at all, only the tip of the pole nodded, as if she was greeting the fish in the water, and there was no other meaning.
Fan Xian laughed, wiped his moss-stained hands around him, and said, "Fishing is also killing." I'll teach you a method, you don't put bait, you just want to fish. β
This is the kind of trick that the mysterious characters in those mysterious novels like to play the most when he read novels in his previous life. Unexpectedly, Begonia still didn't look back, nor did he move, but laughed: "What a boring thing, don't use bait, do you just don't want to fish......?" Since what you are asking for is the heart, if you fish with your heart, you will naturally fish, as for whether you can catch it or not, what is the difference?"
Fan Xian was angry, thinking that he just wanted to chat, why did he come up with these vain conversations again?
Haitang glanced back at him, smiled, and said, "I know that your mind is not quiet these days, why don't you sit together?" β
Fan Xian shook his head and said with a smile: "The gentleman is far away from the kitchen, let alone the net hunting fork?"
Haitang couldn't help but glance at him and shook his head: "Hypocritical guy." β
Fan Xian smiled and moved forward, who knew that his hips slipped and almost slipped into the lake, causing him to panic for a while, and he screamed.
There were stones, no trees and no grass by the lake, and there was nothing to borrow except for the begonia girl, so he naturally climbed the shoulders of the begonia with both hands.
Haitang's shoulder shook slightly, so he shook his hand away, clasped his wrist with his backhand, helped him stabilize his balance, and said with a smile: "It's not just hypocritical, even the drama is so fake, it's so careless...... How can there be a nine-rank master in this world who can't even sit still?"
Fan Xian looked up to the sky and sighed: "The world doesn't know me, and Duoduo doesn't believe me, how can this rìzi live?"
Haitang flipped his wrist and let him sit beside him, naturally took out another fishing rod next to him, stuffed it into Fan Xian's hand, and said, "Since you want to fish, you have to be patient, don't worry." β
The language was a pun, but Fan Xian knew that this was not a problem with pickling girls, but a problem with dealing with the situation in Jiangnan, he smiled, took out the earthworm from the small mud pot next to him, hung it on the hook, hung it into the water, and sprinkled some prepared crumbs to lure the fish into the water.
The lake suddenly fell into a state of calm.
After a while, Fan Xian's light voice broke this rare tacit understanding: "I am patient, I am not in a hurry, the situation in Jiangnan is not difficult to control, and the plan is established, I will have the confidence to go on step by step." The problem is that Jiangnan looks at Kyoto, but I can't control what will happen in Kyoto, and things there may go the way I think, or there may suddenly erupt into a big event that everyone will not react to for a while. β
"Big event?"
"Not bad. Fan Xian didn't continue to say anything, but said with a trace of doubt and a trace of sincere admiration: "You know that I am the secretary of the Qingguo Supervision Yuan, then you must also know who the real elder of the Supervision Yuan is." β
"North Sean, South Pingping. There was a hint of bitterness in Haitang's smile: "That Dean Chen doesn't know how many people in the north have killed us, how can we not remember him?"
Fan Xian said with a smile: "Each is his master, each has his own heart, the two sides were enemies back then, and it is natural for you to kill me." I just want you to know that this old man is one of the two people in the whole world that I can't fully see. β
"Two people?" Haitang turned his head curiously to see.
"Not bad. Fan Xianmian said cautiously: "Even if my emperor and your emperor, I can guess some of their thoughts and positions, because their butts are sitting on the dragon chair, they must think about things related to this chair." But Chen Pingping is different, the so-called no yΓΉ is rigid, there is tolerance is great, people are dying, his words are ...... I can't figure out what this old man wants to do, what he is doing, I can't see through it, with his current status, there is no need to get involved in the battle for the throne. No matter who is the prince, you must give him a good offer...... And he has been so calm, it does not fit the style of his life. β
Chen Pingping is the most famous yΔ«n plot in the world today, such a character, if you don't make a move, it will be turned upside down.
Haitang thought for a moment and said softly: "If it weren't for you not avoiding me and clarifying the relationship between Lingtang and Dean Chen, I would definitely have another opinion on this matter, including everyone in the world today, I am afraid that the reason why Chen Pingping values you so much is entirely because of the will of Emperor Qingguo." β
"Not bad. β
"And the things you have said to me in the past, I seem to see certain bad tendencies. Haitang laughed at herself: "You want to support the third child, Chen Pingping...... Could it be that they want to nurture you?"
"It's too difficult. Fan Xian frowned and said: "There are some problems with my background, if I don't sweep away those nobles in the palace, I can't enter the palace at all...... And who knows who is behind what happened back then? I'm going to have to figure it out one day, but now I'm in a hurry. As for what you mean by the dean......
He smiled and shook his head and said: "Being an emperor is not a tisi, such a big thing, if he doesn't communicate with me, he will never dare to do it alone." β
Haitang fell into deep thought, shook his head and sighed after a while: "If you can't think clearly, don't think about it for the time being." β
"Jiangnan is just a small fish, and Jingzhong is a big fish. Fan Xian's eyes were calm, staring at the two thin lines on the surface of the lake that were slightly undulating, and after a long time, he said, "Fishing...... I was always worried about whether I caught a fish myself, or if I was dragged to the bottom of the water and couldn't get up again. β
Haitang smiled and said, "You have already wet your feet by the river, and you can't do it if you don't want to step into the water." β
Fan Xian smiled bitterly and said: "That's true, but there is a sense of uncertainty, I don't like this feeling of not being controlled by myself." β
"No one, not even the king of a country...... Able to control all things. Haitang said softly: "It's good enough to just try to grasp the general trend." β
............ "You just said that there are two people that you have not been able to see through, one is Chen Pingping, and the other is who?" Haitang was very interested in this question, she knew that Fan Xian was very confident in his ability to know people, even Emperor Qingguo, he thought he could grasp some aspects of his mind, but he admitted that there were people who he couldn't see through, and she wanted to know who the second person was.
"My father. Fan Xian smiled and said, "Actually...... He, like Chen Pingping, is a very powerful character, but Chen Pingping has been floating up and down the water, but he has been sinking at the bottom, although I am his son, but I don't know his true mind. β
For Chen Pingping and Fan Jian, Fan Xian treated each other as his father, honestly and without doubt, after the death of his mother, he presided over revenge, and in the bloody night of Kyoto 14 years ago, the queen family was washed clean in blood, and later in the process of growing up, the care and love that these two fathers gave to him made Fan Xian admire.
But the amazing thing is that the two people who are the closest are the two closest people, but they can't see through it the most.
"It turns out that it is not Gangnam that you have been worried about, but Kyoto. Haitang smiled and said: "With such two unfathomable characters behind you, you really don't need to worry much about Jiangnan's affairs." β
"I am the whetstone that His Majesty set up for those brothers. Fan Xian smiled and said: "This Jiangnan matter, the eldest princess and the second prince of the crown prince...... Isn't it the whetstone set up for me by my father and Chen Pingping? The elders have deep hopes for me, and I am very grateful. β
The words "gratification" are extremely annoying.
The two thin lines were still calmly sunk into the gentle water, without a trace of wrist trembling. Haitang glanced at him and said, "It seems that you really don't need to use fishing to hone your heart." β
Fan Xian said: "I have always been resolute, my mood is stable, and it is difficult to linger on foreign objects. β
Admitting his advantages in front of a woman, for Fan Xian, is not embarrassingly boasting, but a very good attitude towards self-analysis.
"How old are you now?" Haitang asked curiously, how could he not understand that such a young person, suddenly holding power in his hands and dealing with complicated affairs, could still maintain such a calm state of mind.
Fan Xian replied very quickly and asked rhetorically, "How old are you this year?"
Haitang pursed her lips, her eyes were bright, which made Bihu in front of her weak, but she refused to answer this question.
Fan Xian snorted and said, "I was eighteen years old when I was eight years old. β
Haitang shook his head and mocked: "Look at your fair behavior, say that you are eighty, and no one will believe it." β
ββββββββββββββββββββββββ old people have experienced chΕ«n wind, summer rain, autumn frost and winter snow, and have already seen a qiΔ in the world, so they can use those eyes that seem a little indifferent to see through the qiΔ in this world.
Only because of the experience can we look down on it, and we can use the most stable mentality and the most old-fashioned means to face those seemingly complicated situations. One of the necessary foundations of the yΔ«n plotter is that his yΓΉ hope is less, so there are few empty doors that can be used by the enemy, so from ancient times to the present, all the well-known characters who use yΔ«n plotting are either old men and old women, or eunuchs.
Young people always have blood, such as the second prince, such as the crown prince, or even the eldest princess, so they will make certain unwise choices at some point.
And a person like Fan Xian, who has two lifetimes of experience, although he was criticized by Haitang as an eighty-year-old sad label, but on the other hand, he did things like an old man, and while using Xia Qifei and the Ming family to fight the family property lawsuit, the rest of the Supervision Yuan was silent, until the turmoil of the family property lawsuit was about to stop, and the Supervision Yuan took action.
For a time, many officials on Jiangnan Road were politely invited to the yamen of the inspection department stationed on Jiangnan Road to drink tea.
Everyone knows that the tea in the Supervision Yuan is an authentic dragon well, and the fragrance of tea is overflowing, but no official wants to drink tea.
Although for the sake of Governor Xue Qing's face, few officials on Jiangnan Road were detained, but in the process of drinking tea and chatting, some old things occasionally talked about by the Supervision Yuan still made those officials tremble, and after returning home, they began to have a headache to consider their own future and personal safety.
On the other hand, the Supervision Yuan also began to disturb the business of the Ming family, although it was impossible to directly detain the goods, but on the grounds of investigating the details of Dongyi City, within one rì, the Ming family's shops began to be inspected by the government, and the Ming family's convoy also encountered unprecedented trouble in the process of transporting goods.
Although the Supervision Yuan did not catch the Ming family except for some petty crimes of carrying smuggled goods, it successfully forced the operation of the Ming family's pet industrial system to slow down.
The firm, pay attention to the delivery of goods, the speed of folding into cash back and forth, just like an endless river, now the Supervision Yuan is like countless sand and gravel slowly sinking into the river, the flow of the river slows down, the sediment is also deposited, it is a pool of living water, but now it is gradually muddy, inconvenient to move.
The move of the Supervision Yuan, with the least manpower, caused the least discussion, but the effect achieved is quite good, the Ming family in the Treasury after paying a huge amount of silver, so many years for the first time feel that the flow of water is a little stretched, and now by the Supervision Yuan sΔo disturbed, the flow of water is more and more insufficient, began to be forced to the Taiping Money Zhuang transfer silver, at the same time, Changfang Ming Qingda also began to secretly sign a bill of exchange to the Merchants Bank.
