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, but also a political gild.

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." ”

Fan Xian smiled and didn't continue to say anything. Through the events in Jiangnan, he felt it more and more. Although His Majesty the Emperor did trust him very much, he still absolutely prevented himself from having any connection with the military, so that when he did things on his own, his absolute strength was still limited.

Otherwise, he would not be so jealous of the existence 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 it was already very good that the emperor had given him so much authority now, but he also knew that the other party would not let him expand his power again. Since the way to get it out is very difficult, Fan Xian must grasp the power he already holds 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 again that the Supervision Yuan had recently acted in Jiangnan, and the main purpose was still about the Ming family, although the Supervision Yuan was in charge of supervising the rule of officials, and did not have direct access to the civil forces, but what is not lacking in the world is the reason for the government. The Supervision Yuan has made preliminary preparations and can follow Fan Xian's instructions at any time. meddling in the affairs of the south of the Yangtze River, from the inner library to Suzhou to the dock, from the account to the warehouse, and oppressed the Ming family in all directions.

This is the only thing Fan Xian can do at present. Since the specific evidence of the Ming family's crimes cannot be traced, it is impossible to use the power of officials to oppress. The officials of Jiangnan Road were staring at him...... Now the work of the supervision institute is to further compress the income of the Ming family through the harassment of the Ming family's trade routes, as well as the manipulation of the supply by the Inner Treasury Transfer Division, so that the other party's flowing water and silver are in short supply, and only in this way. was able to force the Ming family 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.

The more Deng Zi heard Fan Xian's worries, he also had some doubts in his heart. He said: "The Quanzhou branch office also feels that something is wrong, and has sent someone to sneak to the island." News will come back about the next day. ”

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 wealth and the arrogant taste of private salt sales, but it is blindly beautiful and elegant, and other residential gardens are no different from the shallow and 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, 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, so in the days in Suzhou, she spent most of her time meditating in the garden, and did 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. ”

He walked to the lake and sat down, slightly more to the shore than Begonia, the distance between the two was a foot, from this angle, you could just see the Begonia girl's steady shoulders, and the flower cloth towel wrapped around her head, and beside her was a very ordinary straw hat, yellow.

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. ”

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 seeking is the nature of the heart, your heart is fishing, self

But if you catch it, what's the difference between catching it and not catching it?"

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 you are not quiet these days. Otherwise, we should also sit together? Fishing is a great way to calm the mind. ”

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." ”

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 are stones, no trees and no grass by the lake, and there is no place to borrow except for the begonia girl. So he naturally climbed on Begonia's shoulders 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 are you going to live this day?"

Begonia flicked his wrist and asked him to sit beside him. Naturally, he 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 and don't worry." ”

The language is a pun, but Fan Xian knows it. This is not a problem of pickling girls, but a problem of 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, and hung it into the water. And he sprinkled some crumbs that had been prepared, and went into the water to lure the fish.

The lake suddenly fell into a state of calm.

After a while, Fan Xian's light voice broke this rare tacit understanding: "I have patience, and I am not in a hurry, the situation in Jiangnan." It's not hard to control, and it's planned. I will have the confidence to go one step at a time. The problem is that Gangnam looks at Kyoto, but I can't control what happens in Kyoto, and things there may go the way I want, or there may suddenly erupt into a big event that everyone will not be able to react to. ”

"Big event?"

"Not bad. Fan Xian didn't continue to say anything, but said with a trace of doubt and 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." ”

"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. ”

"Two people?" Haitang turned his head curiously to see.

"Not bad. Fan Xian said with a cautious face: "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 desireless is rigid, tolerance is great, and people are dying, and their 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's been so calm, and it's not in keeping with the way he's been doing things all his life. ”

Chen Pingping is the most famous conspiracy in the world today, such a figure, 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." ”

"Not bad. ”

"And through the things you've 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 find out about it one day, but I'm not in a hurry now. As for what you mean by the dean......

He smiled and shook his head and said: "Being an emperor is not a priest, such a big thing, if he doesn't communicate with me, he will never dare to do it alone." ”

Begonia fell into deep thought. After a while, he shook his head and sighed: "I can't think clearly, so don't think about it for the time being." ”

"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. ”

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." ”

Fan Xian smiled bitterly. said: "That's true, but there is a sense of uncertainty, and I don't like this feeling of not being controlled by myself. ”

"No one, not even the king of a country...... Ability to control everything. Haitang said softly: "It's good enough to just try to grasp the general trend." ”

......

......

"You just said that there are two people that you have not been able to see through, one is Chen

Pingping, who else is there?" Begonia was very interested in this question. She knew that Fan Xian was very confident in her ability to know people, even Emperor Qingguo. He thought he could grasp some aspects of his mind, but he admitted that there were people 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 underwater. Although I am his son, I don't know what he really thinks. ”

For Chen Pingping and Fan Jian, Fan Xian treated each other as his father, was honest and undoubted, and presided over revenge after his mother's death. In the bloody night of Kyoto fourteen years ago, the blood of the queen family was cleaned, and in the process of growing up later, the care and love that these two fathers gave to him made Fan Xian admire.

But it's amazing. Partial birth is the two closest people, but they can't see through it the most.

"It turns out that it's not Jiangnan that you've been worried about. It's Kyoto. Haitang smiled and said: "With such two unfathomable characters behind you, you really don't need to worry much about Jiangnan's affairs." ”

"I am the whetstone that Your Majesty has 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 that my father and Chen Pingping set for me? The elders have great hopes for me, and I am very pleased. ”

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 mind. ”

Fan Xian said: "I have always had a resolute temperament, a stable state of mind, and it is difficult to linger with external objects. ”

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, dealing with complicated affairs, but still able to 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. ”

Haitang shook his head and mocked: "Look at your daily behavior, say that you are eighty, and no one will believe you." ”

The old people have experienced spring breezes, summer rains, autumn frosts, winter snow, and have already seen everything in the world, so they can use those eyes that seem a little indifferent to see through everything in the 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. A necessary basis for a conspirator is that his desires are few, so that the enemy can take advantage of the empty door, so from ancient times to the present, all the well-known characters for conspiracy and planning are either old men and old ladies, or eunuchs.

Young people are always bloody, 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 is indeed as patient as an old man when he does things, and while Xia Qifei and the Ming family are fighting a family property lawsuit, the rest of the Supervision Yuan has been silent until the turmoil of the family property lawsuit is about to subside, and the Supervision Yuan takes 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 harass the business of the Ming family, although it was impossible to directly detain people, but on the grounds of investigating the spies in Dongyi City, within one day, the Ming family's shops began to be inspected by the government, and the Ming family's fleet also encountered unprecedented trouble in the process of transporting goods.

Although except for some petty crimes of carrying smuggled goods, the Supervision Yuan did not catch any big tricks of the Ming family, but under repeated harassment, it successfully forced the operation of the Ming family's favored 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 Supervision Yuan's move, the least manpower, caused the least discussion, but the effect is quite good, the Ming family in the Treasury after paying a huge amount of silver, for the first time in so many years, feel that the running water is a little stretched, and now harassed by the Supervision Yuan, the flow of water is more and more insufficient, began to be forced to the Taiping Money Zhuang silver, at the same time, Changfang Ming Qingda also began to secretly sign a bill of exchange to the Merchants Bank.
